"By introducing a minimal, standardized, and AI-native representation of document structure, layout, meaning and governance, DocLang creates a far more deterministic foundation for modern AI systems."
Because everybody wants to use random irrelevant garbage input and expect a determinate, repeatable output.
According to Britannica:
In the Middle Ages, the name Britain was also applied to a small part of France now known as Brittany. As a result, Great Britain came into use to refer specifically to the island.
tl;dr
- The supply chain is auditable by design. Building on Fedora with declarative overlays means every change from upstream is documented in the repository. That is a stronger story than most distributions can tell about what is in their packages and why.
- It is minimal on purpose. Azure Linux ships only what cloud and server workloads need. There is no desktop, no GUI, no general-purpose sprawl. The distroless container images take this to its logical end: no shell, no package manager, almost nothing to exploit.
this looks like it would be fun to use.
when you compile a Janet program, it runs all of the top-level instructions – regular statements, function declarations, whatever – and then, once it’s executed all of the top-level values, Janet writes down a snapshot of your program’s state to disk.
And it’s a full snapshot of your program’s state: shared references are preserved, so mutable values can still be mutated after you “resume” the snapshot. Generators remember exactly what instruction they need to run the next time you resume them. Closures gonna close.
Yes I decided to live a long time, then I started accumulating wealth so that I wouldn't have to work for a long time.
I have faith that I can keep extending my life and wealth as long as I require.
When banks hiked interest rates, almost every tech company immediately laid off 5-20% of their engineers. It was just no longer profitable to keep a bloated engineering staff around to boost the stock price. Instead, companies had to actually make money3. However, that wasn’t a good public explanation for the layoffs, since it sounds weak to admit that you were paying hundreds of engineers to do unprofitable work. Fortunately, the end of ZIRP coincided roughly with the rise of ChatGPT, so tech companies were able to to blame their layoffs on the power of AI. Saying “with this transformative new technology, we’re able to deliver 10x the value with half the engineers” is a much stronger message, even though it doesn’t make much sense (if this is true, why not keep your engineers and deliver 20x the value?)
Probably less mass production and more customized on-demand unique products.
People like to cluster with others even if they could easily live in the woods all the time.
Long Life and Immortality will be the new goals.
A person expecting to live forever will make sure he has an income stream that will allow him to prosper throughout his natural lifespan of about 1,000 years.
He has it figured out:
He talked about robotics and Artificial Intelligence and how there’s going to be “a separation of haves and have nots pretty soon.”
“I’d like to be a have-something,” he said.
And Massie’s idea to be a have-something is to invent robots that can perform functions, like a tiny little Death Star for his orchard that “zaps oriental fruit moths and coddling moths and plum curculio.”
It was the old compiler they "fixed"
