> the door is open for this after AI systems have gathered enough "training data"? Sounds more like the door is open for this once reliability targets are met. I don't think that's unreasonable. Hardware and regular s

Following US sales tax has way more complexity. In my county alone there are many different rates depending on the city in which the sale is made. Even just finding out authoritatively which jurisdiction to pay taxes to is nontrivial, pract

When Trump said NATO allies needed to increase defense spending, did he mean it to protect against US?

Right, I don't! it's the other way around where I live. Lots of pedestrians distractingly lolling about in the bike lane, maybe with a dog and a loose toddler too. So, music.

Too many close calls with inattentive pedestrians in my area. I ring, no move, or worse, they get startled, and turn around into the middle of the bike lane. If I have to choose between coming off as rude and keeping my brain enclosed, I

This is my reason for blasting music from my bicycle. Feels less rude than clicking a bell at the pedestrians and somewhat more effective at attracting attention.

It's not arbitrage until you can make money by selling something that costs you less than what you bought it for. What it is is bundled product (item + shipping) being priced lower than just one of the elements in the bundle (shipping)

"Laid off" may be more appropriate than "fired", but in essence, removing the need for costly labor is often the main "value" of any technology. Society as a whole comes out ahead from it, I mean for all the ic

That looks like it's trying to do too much and too little. Too smart for a dumb phone, too limited for a smart phone. The hard keyboard feels antediluvian now that we have swipe or voice recognition typing with relatively acceptable ac

This is informative for an indie audio podcast. I wonder how the economics and scale change for podcasts published by studios like Audible or even smaller ones like Pushkin

Did this change? I stopped reading the print version for lack of time a few years back, and there was definitely some full-page and margin advertising throughout the paper. I recall some of it being clearly directed at much wealthier custom

You might also need different systems for low-cardinality, low-latency production monitoring (where you want to throw alerts quickly and high cardinality fields would just get in the way), and medium to long term logging with wide events. A

When these companies were founded, they had nowhere near the scale and resources in the hands of the current set of folks. Zuckerberg at 28 was riding a bike and this is a rocketship (pointed up or down, is not clear)

In my experience, discernment and good judgment. The "generating ideas" capabilities is good. The text summarization capabilities are great. However when it comes to making reasoned choices, it seems like it's losing all abil

There are really two kinds of "small bugs". 1) Things that have existed in your product for decades and haven't been major strategic issues. 2) Things that arose recently in the wake of launches. This can be because it's

Thanks, these are good examples of holes in typescript that I wasn't aware of. I guess I haven't pushed it enough yet to run into them. I agree Ocaml wouldn't fail. > I can't see what are you speficially missing here

by yujzgzc 11mo ago
Ocaml has exactly the same kinds of escape hatches, like Obj.magic or unsafe accessors. The way I see it. it's a matter of community practice more than language capabilities. Typescript in practice has has the safety net of being inter

Both languages have robust and expressive type systems. My experience is that TypeScript's is also more flexible. In Ocaml everything is cool as long as you stick with the functional programming style. But every "interesting"

by yujzgzc 11mo ago
I loved Ocaml but now I love TypeScript more. It's got about the same amount of type safety, the ergonomics are better to me, and the packaging and ecosystem tooling are leaps and bounds above anything else.

Organizational unit, location, etc all these concepts were pretty dumb to tie with digital identity in retrospect.

I feel the experience of many people writing with ASN.1 is that of dealing with PKI or telecom protocols, which attempt to build worldwide interop between actually very different systems. The spec is one thing, but implementing it by the bo

I think about all the actual physical work that goes into building a functioning supply chain, and that it will take a lot more than "figuring out" to manifest such a physical form.

Blame the game not the player. "LinkedIn cringe style" predates generative AI (though it was arguably willed into existence in part by the evolutionary process operating on a engagement-based feed-ranking AI)

There are already plenty of supply chain problems in the AI industry, but the supply chain limitations to robotics are even higher. You can't snap your fingers and increase robotics production tenfold or a hundredfold without a lot of

I don't think that robots are software-limited in all domains... And even if AI became a superhuman software dev, it wouldn't drive the cost of software development to zero.
