It's not wholly the dems fault. Nobody took the manhood and backbone from maga republicans: they gave it up themselves and willingly butt kissed. The dems are partially complicit insofar as they were a weak counterbalance 2016 and 2024

I keep writing and in my personal conversations with Trump people and moderates i keep reminding: overshooting stupid far right will lead to stupid far left. We don't need that either. Time and time and time again power structures flau

Cloud state? Instead of talking about it can do, might allow etc. start talking about accountability. Start talking about consequences. Start talking arrest. Start talking about the flip side of control and freedom of action. Let's see

Wanna know what we need? MARPA: management and research process advancement. Yes or no: can the USA get a medium sized build done on time and budget comparable to the top 15% worldwide? There has to be way to kick this problem in the butt.

The more systems it is (distributed databases, leader election, strong serialization, safety critical) the more so cheapest path looses. Making a bug fix on jira or web page there's less to loose.

You said that right! Absolutely. It's one thing to fix a mess in a culture that cares. It's darn near impossible to fix it if the culture around is hostile, indifferent, or any of the other 82 million other reasons organizations c

The dyad left-v-right is just stupid. The issues are complex. We must move under and out of the political bs of conservative v. liberal if we're gonna get anywhere.

Take the stupid of the far right and idiots like Trump, then multiply through by -1. It presents differently but it'll still screw stuff up keeping the idiocy in cycle. There's morons on left too! The middle ground is far, far pre

It's not clear to me that China is batting that well. I do not wish bad upon the Chinese citizenry, and China has done well in its own day since the 1960s. But don't forget at the same time where China was during the end of the Br

"new rituals hubristic and naive." I think the author handles this by pointing out the constant in change: human nature which does not change plus change itself. In that context ritual symbology has a half life in human nature. I

I agree as I point out in other comments here - you said it with more detail. AGI + robot is way beyond a mere change in product conception or implementation. It's beyond craftsmen v. modern forms of manufacturing we sometimes read abo

That's an agi back handed complement by any measure. Well, by way of analogy, we made peace out of eden and so will agi. Lying by the way is usually caught up in various ways to defray the threat to ego (self esteem) and defray or dela

There's a qualitative difference between ok transport and better transport vs AI. If we're going to talk cars, I think what the Japanese did to the big three in the 1980s would have been far more on point. AI is encumbered by AGI

And it can get worse. Over shooting right (left) invariably leads to overshoot left (right) which we absolutely do not need either. The American sense (when we get off our butts and do it) is common sense, slowly changing law that always ap

Well yes, but we gotta try something. The fact that agi or human intelligence is a unknown in any engineering sense is also why it thrives in ways so amenable to nonsense. Still, we gotta try.

The article does not make sense i.e. in a way a econ or fed watcher off the street could agree with or reject. But it has enough planks in the marketing of stable coins by presenting it as close to power, growing in power, and because of th

In the 1980s maybe a course correction was needed to help capitalism. But it's over corrected by 30%. I'm not knocking corporate america or capitalism in absolute terms. I am saying customers have lost power... whether it's p

Zig's build system is in zig code. Cmake/make/ninja/meson are not. That's a notable difference. My initial take on the zig stuff is that it's a bit complex ...

I think you need to read the papers. Obviously things grow - look who i mentioned afterall. The focus is on how you handle growth.
