I agree wholeheartedly with all of the points made in the article, but this website kinda sucks as an example.
- The website is "one binary", but the deploy strategy involves compiling it instead of running a binary artifact
- Won't rely on github pages, but depends on external resource at openlibrary.org
- Writing your own stuff lets you take advantage of open standards, but the .html files in thoughts/ are structured as plaintext with a false file extension
- When people go this route, they usually try to cram everything into the initial page load. This has several static files served dynamically.
- The Golang code does not cache any responses, and does not store templates in memory.
- Several dependencies in the go.mod file, all of them seem unused?
Most importantly:
No discussion about the technical benefits of the "single-binary" ethos compared to modern infrastructure.
It's my humble opinion that it's a great idea, and this is a poor example.
I think you're right that the world of executives is less like "employment" and it's kind of insulting to pretend it is.
But I also think it's fine for executives to sue the companies they represent. I think the government should have a role in corporate governance. I would even support having a government appointed representative like the Federal Reserve has.
These things are made of neural networks. Literally everything about them is weights and biases.
I agree and all, but it's weird to claim these models have general bias without testing them on a variety of inputs. These models have a lot of minute details. They're capable of differentiating a lot of specific things. They don't lack information about Indian women.
The industry agreed to standardize on Python for the task of describing compute-graphs that get executed by compute engines implemented in something other than Python. Python is not meant to be used for the computation itself.
I get your point, and I agree with it for most cryptocurrencies.
In this case, the proof-of-work would be peer-review instead of computation, and the "blocks" would be as frequent as "minor releases". The need for computation would be pretty light.
