Not only does NonStop not support Rust, but apparently they failed to port gcc to it, even. So compiling Rust straight to C itself is pretty much the only option there.

> This is a real problem, and AI is a new vector for it, but the root cause is the lack of reliable trust and security around packages in general.

I agree. And the problem has intensified due to the explosion of dependencies.

With respect to PyPI, npm, and the like, and as far as I know: no. But regarding C and generally things you can control relatively easily yourself, see for instance:

I must say as a bavarian citizen that this "abuse" has lots of benefits for us. Of course I am aware of my bias here. I can't find an interview but Söder has said that a lot of other states don't even apply to all Fördergelder they could possibly get. That always striked me as odd.

> Virtually everybody who ever lost a job to technology ended up better off for it.

That's plain wrong, and quite obviously so. You're demonstrating here a very common misunderstanding of the arguments people affected by (or worried about) automation taking their jobs make. In a very concise form:

- It's true that society and humanity so far always benefited from eliminating jobs through technology, in the long term.

- It's not true that society and humanity benefited in the immediate term, due to the economic and social disruption. And, most importantly:

- It's not true that people who lost jobs to technology were better off for it - those people, those specific individuals, as well as their families and local communities, were all screwed over by progress, having their lives permanently disrupted, and in many cases being thrown into poverty for generations.

(Hint: yes, there may be new jobs to replace old ones, but those jobs are there for the next generation of people, not for those who just lost theirs.)

Understanding that distinction - society vs. individual victims - will help make sense of e.g. why Luddites destroyed the new mechanized looms and weaving frames. It was not about technology, it was about capital owners pulling the rug from under them, and leaving them and their children to starve.

They are amazing machines designed for fault tolerance (99.999% reliability). The Wikipedia article below has design details for how many generations were made. HP bought them.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tandem_Computers

I think it would be useful in open-source, fault tolerance to copy one of their designs with SiFive's RISC-V cores. They could use a 20 year old approach to dodge patent issues. Despite its age, the design would probably be competitive, maybe better, than FOSS clusters on modern hardware in fault tolerance.

One might also combine the architecture with one of the strong-consistency DR'S, like FoundationDB or CochroachDB, with modifications to take advantage of its custom hardware. At the local site, the result would be easy scaling of a system whose nodes appeared to never fail. The administrator still has to do regular maintenance, though, as the system reports component failures which it works around.

Elections aren't rigged but everything else is rigged, like media is controlled by government or opposition candidates are jailed.

That's not the technical report; it's also just a blog article which links to someone else's paper, and finishes off by promoting something:

The problem is that Adobe still makes the best tools in a lot of categories.

They also have the whole ecosystem lock-in model that also worked for Apple: their products work together, so if you try to replace Photoshop, you're probably still using Illustrator, and After Effects, etc. except your workflow isn't as smooth anymore, because there's one tool in the chain that works differently than the rest.
I assume you're referring to the IDF, as they are the only member of this conflict who has been recorded using civilians as human shields systematically.

Not necessarily. First for soft reasons: media and tech companies spreading disinformation. Second for hard reasons: elections can be postponed for <reasons>.
They've also not targeted your country either like they did Israel. Even Hungary has recognized their strange obsession with Israel recently. The ICC is part of the U.N. and have passed more resolutions against Israel, then the rest of the world combined. It's pure insanity. Especially when comparing a democracy in the Middle East, a place where every other country is either authoritarian, totalitarian, run by terrorists, or dictators. Bashar-Al-Assad has killed over 700,000 people, yet somehow Israel is worse. It's pure insanity.
We do have tools but adoption is sparse. It still too much hassle.

You can do SLSA, SBOM and package attestation with confirmed provenance.

MacPorts vs. HomeBrew (2011)
I think the key differentiator is Prefrontal Synthesis.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefrontal_synthesis

This is the ability to mentally compose conceptual objects in complex relationships.

In fact I don’t think there really is one single significant differentiator. There are many. However without this one technology beyond simple single function tools such as a hand axe or pointed stick, and simple linguistic statements wouldn’t be be possible.

The linguistic composition described in the article sound similar if dramatically more primitive, but I don’t think we can assume it comes from a common ancestor. It may well be that this capability has a different neurological basis, since these animals don’t have a prefrontal cortex. So it seems plausible this is a case or parallel evolution of a very rudimentary similar feature. Fascinating stuff though.

>How can it be true that they're really expensive and you can't even give them away for free on Craigslist?

I tried to give away an 30+ year old Ethan Allen grandfather clock (cost about $2500 new) on Craigslist. Nobody was interested in picking it up. To most young people, grandfather clocks are "dated" and it's only something they see at their grandparents house. It used to be a rite of passage to buy a grandfather clock to the house but that trend is gone now. Like expensive china cabinets, it's just not something a lot of people desire these days.

I suppose if I had left the grandfather clock on Craigslist for a year instead of a month, and if I offered to deliver it instead of requiring pick it up, eventually somebody would have wanted it.

The only way I finally got rid of it was bundling it with an old curio cabinets I was selling. Taking the grandfather clock as a complete package was a condition of the sale. Maybe like vinyl records, grandfather clocks are making a comeback and I got rid of it too early.

The erosion of a shared German culture for decades leaves us with the result of having no national identity. Make no mistake, I'm not alluding to purism of the natives one bit. On the contrary, I would love for immigrants to be proud to be part of Germany.

In the US, immigrants make a point of showing their patriotism by immersing themselves into American culture. We don't have a similar cultural phenomenon in Germany.

You would be surprised how many natives share this viewpoint. This can only work for so long before something collapses...

> AFAIK browsers don't throttle download speed, if that's what you mean.

Yeah, I suppose by implementing a relatively large client-application-side buffer and reading from that in larger chunks rather than as small as the media codec allows, the same outcome can be achieved.

Reading e.g. one MP3 frame at a time from the TCP buffer would effectively throttle the download, limited only by Nagle's Algorithm, but that's probably still much too small to be efficient for radios that prefer to sleep most of the time and then receive large bursts of data.

> …in mature teams with high trust, people don’t have heated arguments…

This dynamic flourishes when the stakes and/or uncertainty are low enough.

High stakes and high uncertainty means everyone’s pushing their intuition and their reasoning as far as they can. They’re at their limit of what can be communicated efficiently. This results in an uneven distribution of communication bandwidth across the edges in the team network. Accountability induces leadership and competing views are ascendant and in decline.

I think it’s reasonable to wonder that, if the temperature never rises about room temperature, the team might not be fully challenging itself.

> And it wasn’t just options. At exactly 1:01 pm EST, trading volume in SPY shares themselves spiked. Nearly 2.75 million shares were bought in that single minute.

This is standard practice, it was simply the marketmaker hedging its position after just having sold those $2.5 million call options.

The math checks out; at 85 cent per piece, those were 2.94 million call options. At 9 above the spot the delta was less than one so I guess you'd need to buy slightly above 2 million shares to hedge your delta. The normal SPY trades would have made up for the remainder of the 2.75 million volume.

You just said deterministic works aren’t derivative, they’re considered the same as the original. That’s not anything I’ve heard AI proponents claim and the outputs are more original than a 1 to 1 photocopy but I assume like the case you linked to that the answer will be, no, you can’t copyright.

I would never smuggle contraband or want other people to do it either.

But one time I was flying back from Canada, and the guy in the seat next to me was not shy about his critical mission to hand deliver 5000 parts from one of the major capacitor manufacturers, directly to a plant in Mexico that was suffering a shortage. This has to be carry-on, checking them as baggage is not an option.

What are the odds, this can't be that uncommon.

I think people would pay extra for a foreign manufacturer or distributor to courier the essential package ASAP and handle the paperwork no differently than the way they have been doing it for others.
