There are tell-tale signs that people will tell you to ignore like fasciculations (muscle twitching) noticeable with the naked eye which are a signs that neuro transmission is peaking more than normal (that would be glutamate-linked).
The problem is that people don't have an answer even after doing Root Cause Analysis. Leaves you like someone trying to explain how the sun looks to someone who is blind.
Occam's razor.
So a bit harder for me. I can focus on work and follow some podcasts but not speak and at the same time listen to a full parallel convo.
I do believe brain to brain communication exists from experience too. People will be quick to call it schizophrenia and indeed it can be maddening because it evidently reuses your neurotransmitters for information propagation. That includes dopamine and can lead to the same issues some diagnosed people have, but actually a couple at the same time.
Without visual hallucinations but the brain gets a bit taken still, since it has to share processing. So it can induce adhd like symptoms, loss of phantasia, nucleus acumbens becoming nucleus incumbered :D, impaired motivation, etc.. But it is transient and you can argue it within yourself with some amount of relief. If you notice and start a loop of wondering where it comes from you are toast though.
Anyway, probably saying too much. You have to experience it. Probably someone playing with AI and neurochemistry. Still can't figure out the actual transport system. It does not make much sense from a wavelength point of view. Even if merely HF acoustic waves (since they can be more directed) not quite sure. Should ask whoever big galaxy brain created the havana effect... \sarcasm
At the same time people already know publicly how to decode brain signals and turn them into movements and Computer Interface actions. So the brain is not a complete blackbox. Some people might be further along...
Anyway... we will know eventually what is this all about..
Hint: "Don't use pointers at all" is the requirement that you would have to relax. That means that you cannot know whether a pointer is safe or not to be used from within an interface.
Conservatively, that means that every nil pointer in interfaces are unsafe.
Which means we should either have a way to check for nil pointers (typed or untyped) in interfaces or assert that an interface value cannot contain a nil pointer. (requires definite assignment analysis)
Actually have implemented the nil checking migration part as a POC but seems that it requires the assertion part to be tractable... That is a bit more work.
This is how things goes when the employers ask for a list of technologies...
Not their fault.
And investing is not accounting...
But commercial real estate takes a hit and it is not good for investors. They should lead with this instead...
Wondering strongly if those studies are not just to sell more cheap supplements... As long as for some reason we find that it has some level of effect on most people.
It has some effect for sure but not sure it is that positive... Besides, I don't know if it helped jump start the process or not but I build muscle either way, on little protein, no creatine... Carbs seem to be more important actually.
Anyway, let me take a scoop of creatine to try again, even though I am unconvinced... Hope sells... :s
(I think hydration levels are more important and that is not solved by drinking low mineralized water although I find it has better taste, it gets rid of tiredness)
And what the article complains about is by design, not a bug. It is a tradeoff made to avoid bloat. In any case, given the future possibilities, I'd bet on Go.
If anything, the language is just slower to evolve because every language change means the tooling needs to catch up. And now llms would have to catch up. ChatGPT is still using Go 1.23 for instance...
Having had the chance to try and implement libraries to interface with those systems a couple times, most people agree that implementations are far from perfect or streamlined. We call this incidental/accidental complexity.
We will see I guess... It could also be an opportunity to audit systems in automated ways.
If we deal with the intricacies of rbac, abac, acl mixed with scopes ,sso, saml, oidc, mfa, etc... I don't find these too conceptually, complex.
I mean, it should be avoidable complexity. Most of the complexity is technical debt, bad implementations etc. But by itself it is not THAT complex.
People not knowing what salt and pepper is... Vulnerabilities almost as if on purpose...
Perhaps it is actually not THAT hard but just like error handling, people don't want to do the unsexy parts and want to delegate those tasks to someone else perhaps. There must be a behavioral pattern there...
