Willing to relocate: not in the next year or so (toddler duty), but open in principle and available to travel frequently in Europe
Technologies: Python, JS, Rust, Bash, DevOps, Linux, embedded C, PyTorch, electronics and robotics, transport and parking infrastructure and technology, navigating political bureaucracies
I am looking to return to technology after an 8 year stint into public service and political office. An engineer by formation, I am a very broad generalist, taking interest into various technical fields as well as social sciences - hence my venture into politics. I have managed transport infrastructure projects for my public sector employers but I also know my way around a git command line and a large codebase written in a dozen languages.
I am particularly interested in fast-moving startups that can benefit from my broad skill set. I am ready to get hands-on and handle any development and engineering tasks to support growth. Ideally, I would like to manage a team of like-minded engineers eager to make an impact.
I am available to work through my own company as a business-to-business contractor, handling my own taxes, etc., if that is beneficial, for example, to a US-based company.
Instead of banning proof of work they should firewall crypto assets from the traditional financial system.
"Let crypto burn" as they say, both figuratively and in the practical sense, let them burn resources but only it they can pay for them by creating value outside their own bubble, services for which people are willing to pay. Currently the massive impetus of the resource burn is crypto speculation, the hope that a substantial part of the traditional financial system will move to crypto systems and take advantage of the low regulations. That's the major promise of crypto that's driving adoption in the traditional space, regulatory arbitrage.
Expecting Galactica to produce truthful academic papers is just about as sensible as expecting to find a significant other among your kitchen appliances. Language models are a way to emulate the writing style of human produced content, only a fool would expect them to reason about the text to any level resembling a scientific standard.
Written language is a doorway to the full extent of human cognition; unless the problem domain is severely constrained (ie "What is the distance to Mars?"), you are very likely to fall into reflexive traps that rapidly devolve into AGI ("I think, therefore I am?").
If one could reliably detect this DLL injection in the process address space, then the correct "fix" is to crash immediately. Authors of such tools should seek another way of accomplishing their goal, preferably one that does not export their own bugs to innocent bystanders.
