I already prefer using pipe as separator in logging; now you're telling me there is a chance that my logs can be automatically ingested as tabular data? Sign me up for this branch of the multiverse :)

To me the chess AI example he used was perhaps not the most apt. Human players may not be able to reason on as far a horizon as AI and therefore find some of AI's moves perplexing, but they can be more or less sure that a Chess AI is optimizing for the same goal under the same set of rules with them. With Reasoners, alignment is not given. They may be reasoning under an entirely different set of rules and cost functions. On more open ended questions, when Reasoners produce something that human don't understand, we can't easily say whether it's a stroke of genius, or misaligned thoughts.

if kernel is updated the OS would have to be rebooted anyway unless live patching is configured. Rebooting after an update is probably more common & less annoying than one would think.

Not sure I follow, isn't Python single threaded by default? Changes to GIL is coming but does it change how the interpreter uses CPU?

I’m not under any illusion that there’s any “Swiss exceptionalism” when it comes to privacy.

RDI for added sugar itself is 24-36 grams which a single 12oz can of Coke exceeds. Measuring in Calories, it's recommended to limit daily intake from added sugar to below 100-150 Calorie. [0]

% of Caloric RDI isn't the whole story. A can of Coke is less of a blip on the radar as you suggested.
