It is interesting that knowing your zipcode I might have predicted your response.

I am a piece in an instrument for humanity to comprehend the Universe.

For a lot of people, if their data is being used as a benefit, then they should be properly compensated for that. They're more likely to be trying to comprehend how to keep food on the table.

No. It goes back to the 1990s when we used Data Entry Operators to key mail details that could not be read by OCR. This is all so the mail goes into the truck sorted. That is the most important part of the mail delivery operation.

The fact that you can get pictures from this system is the innovation but imaging has existed for much longer than this product.

Why didn't they just rewrite it in Rust?

People who pay Anthropic you mean. There is no benefit. And only the owner can make more books.

Fake altruistic mindset. Super sociopathic.

then everyone benefits from cheaper widgets and you get paid for it.

Ah, but the original widget manufacturer bought a Senator, and so now there are onerous widget regulations that specifically target me while leaving them unscathed.

Don't you know widgets could somehow be dangerous in the hands of.. uh.. the Chinese?

The real economy

It's possible it stopped existing decades ago. To quote the character of Dr Burry: "It's possible that we are in a completely fraudulent system."

More directly if the game engine only updates player state every 60 seconds (tick rate) then is this 4ms advantage actually present for the 240Hz case?

Further if your network has more than 4ms of jitter then I don't think you can make any concrete claim in either direction.

There's billions upon billions of dollars on the table. I'm a simple man. I'd suggest overt manipulation.

really missed a chance to write this up into "three acts."

You also want to set a marker so that when you come back later you can set your theodolite up in the exact same position as you did 20 years ago.

There's a lot of surveyors marks hammered into things out in the world.

In two months they've doubled MAUs? Without an explanation of that specific outcome I don't believe it.

Also:

As per SimilarWeb data 61.05% of ChatGPT's traffic comes from YouTube, which means from all the social media platforms YouTube viewers are the largest referral source of its user base,

That's deeply suspect.

You have "social anxiety." You are not in a "moat of low status." The status is purely in your own mind and not something calculated and assigned to you by the world.

Another CEO flying at 30,000' missing the forest for the trees.

I don't think so?

The disk is going to report an uncorrected error for one of them.

it can find a correct copy elsewhere.

Which implies you can already correct errors through a simple majority mechanism.

or it could be rebuilt through ECC.

So just by having the appropriate level of RAID you automatically solve the problem. Why is this in the fs layer then?

How would they know to volunteer? Are you saying I can perform a hostile volunteering to take over for a maintainer who does not want to give up the project? I don't think you understood what was meant.

Is that raw error rate or uncorrected error rate?

a lot of our technology is sheer accident , serendipity, the way the cards happened to fall

What an absurd ahistorical fallacy.

but thanks to mindwarping science fictional yellow-covered literature

Thanks to this you seem to have a confused and fantastical idea of the past and of our future.

Imagine the pleasure of discovering one of these nice radioactive time-bombs six thousand years from now. Imagine the joy of selfless, dedicated archaeologists burrowing into one of these twentieth-century pharaoh's tombs and dropping dead, slowly and painfully.

Nonsensical. Uranium is part of the Earth's crust. There are plentiful natural deposits that already exist.

Aside from that it's not as if archaeology of ancient kingdom sites is perfectly safe now. There are various airborne health and physical hazards in doing this work.

Shouldn't we give some thought to leaving them a legacy a little less lethal and offensive than our giant fossilized landfills and the radioactive fallout layer in the polar snows?

Peace requires prosperity. I'd trade all the land wars in history and those to come for some nuclear waste.

some sort of data error detection (and ideally correction).

That's pretty much built into most mass storage devices already.

If a disk bitflips one of my files

The likelihood and consequence of this occurring is in many situations not worth the overhead of adding additional ECC on top of what the drive does.

ext* won't do anything about it.

What should it do? Blindly hand you the data without any indication that there's a problem with the underlying block? Without an fsck what mechanism do you suppose would manage these errors as they're discovered?

Presumably there would be an open call where people would nominate themselves for consideration. These are problems that have come up and been solved in human organizations for hundreds of years before the kernel even existed.

Corruption has been compounding. Malicious business interests don't actually care which party has power. Just that they have access. It's telling that you have to reach back 30 years to find an example where the budget was balanced for one single year.

the dollar has been insanely overvalued post-COVID.

That's an odd way of saying the US doubled it's federal budget from $3T to $6T in response to COVID and has now ensconced this pork further into law. Under a "republican" administration, no less.

The dollar losing its value is a return to the pre-covid norm.

Which is to say that even $3T contained an unjustified amount of debt spending just not as obscene as it is today.

It's a high that can't last forever.

That's the "big beautiful bill" for ya.

So when someone is actively losing their rights you feel the need to go out of your way to say you're unsympathetic. What did you /intend/ to convey with this? You support them, but at this dark moment, you felt the need to kick their shins also?

If our rights are contingent on taste then we have no rights at all.

are these passive cables acting like antenna

With both ends connected to a device? No.

Aside from that you've got a linear scrambler into balanced drivers into twisted pair. It's about as noise immune as you can get. Unless you put the noise right up next to the cable itself.

I've always been told that caching is a tool to make software faster.

Who told you that?

you don't have to go all the way back to some backend database or API server or SSD [...] Caching is thus a tool to improve performance.

That's called "latency." This is not at all the same as "performance."

My feelings now are that that perspective on caching is wrong

I agree.

I've only ever seen linear increases. When did Moore's law even _start_?

immediately transforms into

Minor quibble, "can only be resolved as". The runtime absolutely holds Promise<Promise<T>>'s.

No. I mean Quakers. Their global humanitarian work and connections to communists and socialists the world over made them particularly interesting to the CIA. The CIA has directly used and manipulated Quakers for these purposes. This was especially true during the Cold War.

The majority of people "recruited" by the CIA are used for information or for their specific field of expertise.

A forgotten history I guess.

I mean.. it's literally sending an audio stream of the meeting and it's contents to an external server? It's not even malware. This is a virus.

is that it teaches a very hearty disrespect of un-earned authority without teaching disrespect for the concept of authority itself

Which is probably why the CIA loves recruiting them so much.

That depends on the regulatory environment and the degree of market monopolization.
