I'm pretty sure that IBM Germany wouldn't pay you more either. Guess how shocking I found salaries during my first time in the US ;-)
Also, even though taxes in CA are "high", taxes in Germany will prob. be a lot higher. I recently spoke to a Norwegian who just moved here. He couldn't believe that he has to pay more here than back home. >50% including social benefits etc. is standard for a single.

However, you have to take into account, that, as far as I can tell, this already includes quite a decent federal retirement package. Additional private retirement plans are getting standard here now, but up until quite recently, lots of people would be happy with their federal ones. My parents for instance never bought a private plan.

Depending on what you prefer, there can be more bang for the buck, or quality of life. For instance in my hometown Munich, rent might be higher than in any other German city but even for European standarts its a joke. You can easily live in the center for way under 1000 Euro per month if you're not to picky. You can prob. reach everything incl. work, city parks and even mountains without a car. In theory bike + train can get you anywhere. The crime rate is a LOT lower. The best beer in town costs about 50 cents per bottle. There are almost know bums on the streets. And so on...

As far as I can tell if you try to save money, the US is the better place to be a high demanded employee. If you want to enjoy life, maybe central Europe is better for you.
Oh, and last but not least, don't expect to find a start up community, larger than a few dozen entrepreneurs.
If you're just doing contracting on your own, incorporating in mainland Europe is basically insane, as you'll spend a ton of your time chasing after bureaucratic stuff, and paying a lot for the privilege. And in any case, what's the point...
This will be very useful as long as it finds confirmed bugs. Otherwise it will be more like an unasked-for code style check (For example, one can argue using functions like strcpy are unsafe, but unless it's really possible to get too many characters in the buffer, it's not a bug)
Me. RoR.
Yes... You're right, I did confuse the two.

And I didn't seem to imply anything about fascists not being good at making money and owning property.
press `~` on open/save dialogs on a mac (also supports tab auto completion). It's a game changer. Also Windows is missing out natively... like space bar for preview on open/save.
You can blunt this effect if you list performance as a feature. And reimagined features with fewer corner cases aka bugs. You don’t have to go feature factory if you don’t want to.

Trouble is, too many people want to.

I think it’s Conway’s Law after a fashion. The organization hasn’t set me up to be able to integrate closely with the existing code, so I write new code. Or I put other people in that position because the company ties my worth to old code too tightly so I feel threatened by changes.
> Why do you think the big bundle will go away?

Because the big bundle -- especially the big-bundle of sources that are themselves advertising-supported -- is an artifact of access-provider-as-gatekeeper. Especially with net neutrality, that's a feature of cable TV that doesn't exist on the internet.
In what seems to be a minority opinion, I don't think Apple's rejection of Pointer Events is unreasonable, and do agree with the viewpoint they've put forward – that touch events and mouse events are distinct, and should be treated as such.

That said, they'll probably have to get on board anyway.
I think it's time to dig this: http://yarchive.net/comp/linux/x86.html

When Linus worked at Transmeta, doing a weird kind of processors and x86 was considered "a charming odity that works well".
Oh absolutely, not relevant for OP, just pointing out that "There’s no such thing as Green Card in Europe" isn't quite true as a Blue Card is pretty similar.
Business are often happy to pay a high effective hourly rate. Consulting is easier than rank and file employment, but you seem to also want job security and predictability.

“Get away with” however indicates you want a “do nothing job”:

Option 1: where the manager doesn’t know/care upfront how little you work. That’s a game of exploring information asymmetries. I’d look for inexperienced managers, people hiring for jobs they have little knowledge about. That’s more important than the actual job description. You can prey on business leaders that are in over their head or have too much capital for their own good. But you’d have to beware so the business itself isn’t too risky, lest you spend all your time job hunting.

Option 2: where the manager can’t fire you even if they want to. Where I live some of that comes automatically with seniority. Joining a union can help as well. Or else playing politics: making the right friends and gathering dirt on them. After attaining the position, incompetence is your friend. Make a point of fucking things up (on purpose) until your responsibilities get taken away.

Option 3: I don’t have anything personally against your position. I’d recommend soul searching just how far you want to stretch it: if it’s okay to trick your employer out of a salary, you might take it a notch further and find a well paying career in outright fraud. I bet ethics are a barrier to entry in many gray area careers.
I guess it has also to do with creative people have time to play around with such things. I could a automate a lot of things at work, but I (like most others too) just have not really time for such projects beside my daily work. And I'm to old to do such side projects until late night.
Then you just repeated what your parent already said. Your comment read like dissent.
We're talking in English about Stallman's idiosyncratic English pronouns. What other language did you have in mind when you wrote Apache helicopter gunship?
The society would be mich better off. I find your equation of "news is like voting" appauling. News has almost no informational value like covering Russel Brand when he was running around telling people not to vote.

We need more people voting and speaking to their representatives, and fewer people outraged about something some random brainless celebtrity said.
I'm working on a project[1] that is based around this functionality. The big "diff" is that I called it response-diff in our original spec, and we're planning to write it in Node.js.

I am a long time IRC user and I have been hanging out in the digital nomads slack channel. I've also used Slack at a couple of jobs.

Slack has nifty features like integration with tools, and inline gifs, etc. But the really nice thing is that it feels a little more human. Everyone knows that IRC turns people into jerks. Slack won't completely prevent that, but it does help to promote the feeling of community. It's made for teams, so it's kind of designed around it.
Not OP but I'll give it a shot. Golang has a great standard HTTP package that makes this project a breeze to implement. Combine that with cross-compilation and statically linked binaries and you get a tool that can be ran virtually anywhere a developer would want to without needing to set up a new environment.
Most Rails projects that I've seen rely on way more third party "gems" than the average Django project.

Regardless, using 3rd party libraries anywhere is pretty straightforward these days, so I don't see how the inconvenience of adding a library to your requirements list could outweigh the fact that Rails means you are using Ruby when you could be using Python.
> what exactly are you trying to hide

The contents of my messages, photos of my kids, who I talk to and when, my location. Is that enough for you?
Interesting though, same incident, same news from 2017:
hxxps://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-41358640

I'd assume, this will be resolved like the last time, just a minor hitch.
It's a GAN with an unorthodox (and rather slow) training scheme!
I support this idea! We should establish one of these.
From the TfL press release:

> Legislation means that Uber now has 21 days to appeal, during which it can continue to operate pending any appeal and throughout any potential appeals process. Uber may seek to implement changes to demonstrate to a magistrate that it is fit and proper by the time of the appeal.
I would try to make adding tests as easy as possible. That is for every piece of code you write think to yourself: How would I test this. If in many cases the code only makes sense in the context of the whole application running this might be a sign of danger. Basically you thinking testing might slow you down is a sign this might be the case. For some problems it is way easier to write tests than to solve them correctly.
The cost of running this infrastructure doesn't go up or down with each additional domain name registered.
Lack of support for screensharing is why I stopped using Wayland.
I'd also happily pay for a store that isn't based on Google's usual profit model (tracking you) or contributes towards a monopoly (Alphabet and Internet services in general). Heck, at this point I'd be happy to pay Microsoft for apk hosting and search since they're not a monopoly in online services or own Android or anything.
> I was able to get 300-400 Mbps in pretty much every room

I thought it was 1733 Mbps on 5 ghz? Is that figure the throughput sum over all concurrent devices? If so, could a single device with multiple antennas get 1733 Mbps rather than 300-400?

Personally I've never been able to go much above 400Mbps on Wifi 5 with any device. I'm hoping Wifi 6 will change that.
I agree with the statement on political climate. No argument there.

I started making music. I picked guitar and electronic music production. It seems to be the nexus of all the things I found interesting in my life: creativity, esoteric knowledge, geometry and mathematics, language, technicality.

I never thought I’d go down the music path seriously but now it’s the only thing I can generate a sense of purpose from and I am enjoying it. Music is the perfect universal thing to unify all abstractions in life in a common core. It seems the ancients had this knowledge but over the years learning music became less and less mandatory and or important.

Music, I’ve come to learn, _is_ the universal language between all things and connects to everything in a very real way to such an extent it can show the relation between abstract models in a tangible way because it’s the bridge between realities. For instance color, geometry, frequency, scales, and ratios/celestial orbits. They all integrate (have in common with music).

Sentience etymologically is a Being which feels; to feel is to aware of vibrations from frequencies, music is the experience of integrating all the senses into one.

Just my thoughts and experience. Feel free to ignore.
V will never have move semantics. Complicates the language too much.
As someone who personally knows people working in anti-trafficking efforts within the USA, whatever the actual numbers are, they are sadly far, far away from your 1% number. People have barely begun to shine a light in the darkness and hand-waving truth away as “stereotypes” is very harmful.
I've used XLM for some payments before. Fast, cheap to send. Sitting below $1 USD maybe keeps it out of the hype zone.
Yeah, it feels like something I don’t want to replicate all of (because I probably won’t need all of it), but it would also be nice to be able to use the bits I need from Go without depending on C. :/
I think they meant that "a continuing rise in the general price level usually attributed to an increase in the volume of money and credit relative to available goods and services." is theft.
I slightly disagree. It takes time and repetition for some things to sink in. IMO, moving to more college-like A/B days would be better. I would not expect history lessons to stick if you compressed 180 days of AP Euro into two weeks at eight hours a day. Likewise, math classes moving that fast would give students the feeling they learned a ton without any retention. That said, I feel like literature and writing could be subjects that fit into this model of intensive week-long workshops once each year.
I've been curious about this as a health care worker. The number of times I've looked up a client condition to better help the person I can't count. So is googles profile of me tainted?

i have a panasonic viera from 2011 and it includes an amazon video player in its built-in apps (along with netflix, and a couple of other services). i use it all the time to watch movies and tv shows using prime, for free, and for pay. is the author talking about a different service?
That's pretty fascinating. (static) Type inference based on tests sounds like an ill-posed problem, or at least one that can't produce human-meaningful annotations. That is to say, If one function has spec A for a generic parameter, and another function has spec B, it doesn't seem like it's possible to generate in general the spec for their composition in "closed-form".

Like, what's the type spec of "map" where the monad argument is a list of even numbers and the function to be lifted maps numbers to uppercase strings? It doesn't seem like we can meaningfully talk about the "type" of the function's result with any sort of specificity beyond List[String] or maybe List[String[Uppercase]], even though the real type is quite a bit more specific.

How does inference work downstream of this point? Can we get reasonable errors before run-time?

c1sc0, I started writing a comment here at around 9:00 this morning. After the fourth paragraph, I decided it should likely be a blog post.

So (pardon the redirect) you'll find almost everything I can contribute to this topic here: http://www.ideasonideas.com/2010/11/how-to-%E2%80%9Crock%E2%...

I hope this is helpful, and now I really need to get back to work! (Funny how a single comment can derail one's morning.)
Cool, thanks for the tip! It looks like the support CSV imports, so worst case I can generate a CSV and then manually add it.

On a side note, with the pervasiveness of widescreen TVs, I wonder how many people still know what letterboxing even is...
I'd guess the opposite, actually. Mass is extremely important for a rocket, so there would be strong incentives to make the cooling system as light as possible.

But a passive system has a few major advantages - it's maintenance free, unlike an active system (imagine having to fill up the coolant tank before launch), and perfectly reliable. Sure, a phase-change coolant might be more efficient - but with flight times in the hours I'm not sure that the difference would be enough to compensate for the complexity.
Podman v3 is compatible with docker-compose (but not yet swarm mode, FWIU), has a socket and a daemon that services it.

Buildah (`podman buildx`, `buildah bud --arch arm64`) just gained multiarch build support; so also building arm64 containers from the same Dockerfile is easy now.

IDK what BuildKit features should be added to Buildah, too?
There was no mistake, in my view.
Looks like a nice list of updates. Any Kotlin performance improvements would be very welcome and it seems that they've done some work there.

We tried code with me a couple of times for pair programming. It's great when it works but still had some issues with e.g. auto complete breaking or people having issues joining with the pre-release versions we tried. But great tool if they managed to fix this.
A weekly news magazine was where I got most of my news for a long time. The US ones are all pretty bad these days; I dropped my Time subscription a few years back after having it for decades. The Economist is probably the go-to in English these days.
The thing is, the more complex a spec is (or rather, how much stuff it allows that will never be used), the bigger the danger is that somewhen down the line, this will introduce a security or other issue.
JetBlue were total idiots about it, but at that point they were "victims" of this situation as well, and it seemed that the representative simply wanted to exclude him as quickly as they could to wipe their hands of the consequences of it.
It should be noted that other Asian people of non-Japanese descent were also wrongly forced into the same Japanese concentration camps. This occurred both in the United States and Canada.

Formula one's new V6 engines are so quiet that they caused a lot of controversy when first introduced:

Frankly I would be ok with that.

The situation in the valley developed in the 90s and 00s, so that companies could be located close to their investors. That was a time when remote work tools sucked and work practices forced people to be in the same office as the founders, so it made lots of sense that the proximity to capital spiked rents and comp to match.

But now, post-pandemic, remote work is the norm. The founders can relocate to the valley because investment finance is largely a relationship game and those are still way better done in person, but there’s no longer any reason the technical team needs to be located near the founders or even each other.

There is huge disparity in engineering salaries — if you work for a smallish company in a rural area you’re probably making $80k/yr for doing the same job someone in the bay gets $175+ for. Ideally it will work the other way around though — the folks making $80k are much more likely to jump ship for a remote job that pays $125k than the folks making $175k are to jump to the same job.

Of course, if organize via collective bargaining we can likely push that even higher, so listen to your union organizers.
This is like saying that the great risk of malware is it can amass unbounded cloud resources. In reality, both the cloud and the blockchain are embedded in human systems that can exercise out of band control if things get too dumb. And the blockchain has the unparalleled advantage of having no practical use beyond financial speculation, so it can be turned off at will.

On top of this, a rogue AI is by definition hyperintelligent and therefore unlikely to come within a country mile of cryptocurrency.
We know because, again, various professions have been using masks extensively for decades without all dropping dead of pneumonia.

Your theory also falls down with the spikey nature of hospitalizations/deaths. If it were the masks, you'd see a steadily high count of these, not outbreaks that come and go. The big early spikes in Italy and NYC were before masking at all became a thing, even.
I have a few somm friends that can do this reliably. The process of elimination is really fascinating to watch.

The reason it's possible, though, is because the majority of commercial wine conforms to distinct, repeatable styles. A grassy note in an amber-colored wine might narrow it down to a single grape variety, a hint of smoke might indicate the region. Then take the relative level of oxidation, and you've got a decent guess at the year. Index that against your mental database of all the possible wines that it could be (price point, availability, etc.), and you've got a good shot the exact bottle.

The level of knowledge required to do this without a book in front of you is impressive, but it's not magic. More like 20 questions with a relatively narrow target area. The usual tricks will fail when you try it with small producers, non-traditional production techniques, or AVAs that don't distribute widely.

We've been training a BigGAN-Deep model for 1.5 months now. Though that sounds like a long time, in reality it's completely automatic and I've been leaving it running just to see what will happen. Every single other BigGAN implementation reports that eventually the training run will collapse. We observed the same thing. But gwern came up with a brilliantly simple way to solve this:

if D_loss < 0.2:
D_loss = 0

It takes some thinking about why this solves collapse. But in short, the discriminator isn't allowed to get too intelligent. Therefore the generator is never forced to degenerate into single examples that happen to fool the discriminator, i.e. collapse.

If you like this sort of thing in general, I encourage you to come join the Tensorfork community discord server, which we affectionately named the "TPU podcast": https://discord.com/invite/x52Xz3y

There are some 1,200 of us now, and people are always showing off stuff like this in our (way too many) channels.
>Nvidia immediately swept in and picked their carcass clean, mostly for their patents in this space, so they would have more ammo/leverage against competitors going forward.

That's surely not a healthy situation either. Courts should never be a central part of competition among businesses.
You don't need facial recognition when you can go to duckduckgo and search for "QAnon guy with horns" and get his stage name, legal name, and city of residence. That sort of targeted investigation is a lot more palatable to me than the sort of dragnet surveillance that people normally thing of when you mention looking at faces and GPS
Even "I sat."
Depending on how high you set the bar it's very easy to make that assessment because barely anyone even comes close. E.g. I have a very high bar, going so far that I couldn't even come up with any living person that I'd call a genius from the top of my head, so I'm _pretty_ sure in not calling the author a genius.

I like to check the award section of “best thesis paper” of my local university for fun and then at work I have to read research papers in my area but then I just use a search engine to find it.

Start small and don’t take it too seriously! Little by little, just as learning a new language.
That's a good point, and perhaps it is. The majority of my experience with dynamic languages is probably in Python.

One thing that makes a difference between Python and other commonly used dynamic languages (here referring to JavaScript / ECMAScript and Lua) is that Python is dramatically more complex out of the box. This is both in terms of language features and Python's batteries-included standard libraries. For example, the amount of overloading that you can do in Python is very impressive, but the result is that common operations aren't necessarily predictable or dependable without more context (not that this isn't a problem in static languages - looking at you C++, but at least in the other languages you get type information to help out and some checking at compile time).

Maybe the TSA screening is junk due to lack of training or proper implementation, but behavioural observation is hardly junk science, Israel does exactly this and has one of the safest airports in the world due to their security screening processes.
