Interesting. Is such a request typical?
Not really a leap forward so much as a synthesis of stuff that already exists. Same technology we have heard in the last several years, with added music.
Men who do nothing but scheme of ways to advance their career.
The article is plainly written and well written and allows people to decide for themselves what the intentions of Scott Siskind may be.

I would be curious to know what other articles you consider well written.

To me, this comes across as a hack job to elevate the writers status before the release of his upcoming book.

It’s a classic tactic that writers use to drive book sales.
It's litteraly the first piece of content.

Oh, I think both of these statements are quite precise (in the sense that reading them and turning them into math is rather immediate). Otoh, you are right and we are saying different things: I’m giving an equivalent formulation with a two-coloring (but there’s a bit of work to actually map it to the original problem) while the other post gives a direct formulation (though the “colors” part of the coloring is irrelevant, in that latter case).
It sounds like you are describing Groovy (which was mature even before Kotlin BTW).
You can execute arbitrary code on iOS and macOS. Give me an example of something you can’t do?
This!!!

I call it the 'mum test'. My mum cannot use computers at all yet somehow she can buy stuff online.

My mum can't read that light grey text on a grey background in spider.ttf 10px!!!

My mum can't work that stupid menu you have.

My mum also has a 1366 x 768 'netbook' from a bygone era. The screen has a viewing angle designed for goldfish. Her broadband is rural flavoured.

My mum is also a bit of a snob. Any graphic chintz will be frowned on and ignored. My mum is entirely product and UX focused (in her own special way).

If she can buy from your site and get items delivered then you have passed my 'my mum' test.

Seriously though, the test on a regular 1366x768 Windows/Chrome OS laptop with high-glare screen, lame CPU, lame memory/disk is not something done early enough in most projects. Many, many people have such computers, not everyone has Apple/Android.

That Facebook makes money from mobile advertising is a good point: In the dot com era, many dot coms made money very briefly selling ads or services to other dot coms, who were willing to pay way too much. Now many companies are valuable because other companies will pay too much for user acquisition. If they stopped, their would be repercussions for a lot of companies in the middle (not Facebook) who see their business model go away.

If the base of the value chain isn't making money (and I think honestly in the current case even the middle isn't) the whole ecosystem will probably contract.
I think you should rephrase that to "you shouldn't solely rely on aa" rather than excluding it entirely. Maybe this just struck a personal chord, because AA helped save me from life-threatening alcoholism, but this seems like a highly irresponsible suggestion (which is why the author of the article you link is very careful not to make it).

If you are an alcoholic, you probably should check out AA in addition to checking in to a detox/rehab program where you will have a therapist and a psychiatrist. As a matter of fact, many "real trained and certified therapists" will suggest that you at least check out a few meetings.

What's important is to know that if it doesn't work out, it doesn't mean you've failed. But it's really, really hard to stop drinking when you are an alcoholic, and it would be foolish to exclude any safe solution that could potentially help you recover from a fatal condition.

When getting sober, there are worst things you could be doing with your time than socializing with other recovering alcoholics for an hour or two, even if you don't like the message.

I should add, I am an atheist and it was never an issue in all my time in AA.
I'm 27, living in Toronto. Most of my acquaintances say things like "I have nothing to hide so it doesn't bother me", or "Dropbox is just so convenient, it doesn't matter about the NSA". It's upsetting.

There continues to be very little discussion about the large-scale, societal effects from a total surveillance society: Writers and artists self-censoring themselves; power structures able to spy on, and control, entire populations; etc. The discussion should really be framed on the tragedy of the commons perspective: even if you don't care, that decision affects everyone. You should care, if not for your own privacy's sake, for our society's protection for its own decision-making ability.

Edit: From the article, discussing post-Snowden public opinion, showing that even when we care the most, a minority of people care about this:

> In that poll, a record-high 39 percent said government should not intrude on privacy, even if it limits the ability to investigate possible threats."
It seems when most Americans are afraid, they automatically believe what the government tells them and that it solution will work to "save" them or protect them.

It seems to be exactly the same case with torture as well. Most seem to believe the US gov should use torture and that "it works". Facts be damned.

Mass surveillance doesn't work [1] either to stop terrorists, but facts (such as the panel reviews saying so), or logic be damned. If the government says it works, then it must be true, and must be what's needed - whatever the civil liberties cost.

Have you ever had your credit card stolen? Have you ever had it frozen and not been able to spend your own money? These things happen constantly but never happen when paying with bitcoin. The more you have to deal with banks the more of a breathe of fresh air it is to pay in btc.

Credit card fraud is incredibly rampant and the security measures in place by banks and sites is so over the top it becomes difficult to even use them. Use ghostery? Your transaction won't go through with an unknown error. Use a VPN? Your transaction won't go through with an unknown error. Paying from a different computer? A different IP? Using a different address? All these things are a recipe for being on hold with your bank for 45 minutes when you all you wanted to do was order $50 of stuff from NewEgg.
I generally like your comments and this one is out place for you. What were you actually trying to say?
I understand what you mean, and agree to a very large extent with the that line of thought. My concerns with Pandit are not so much on failure, but fraud and mismanagement.
just avoid the fizzbuzz questions, they aren't a good benchmark for good developers.
Actually, it' why A/B testing is rife with false signaling. ;-)
The article is about an 8% increase in account registrations not hits.
Genuine question:

> 1. Some people on disability need far more than any reasonable UBI would provide

Is that due to medical needs? Because if so, that would seem to be a job not for UBI but for a proper medical system, which this country is also woefully lacking.

> 2. SNAP, Social Security, Medicaid: Debt is an issue here. Even if you shield UBI payments from bankruptcy, that would still require those with large debt burdens to declare bankruptcy. Libertarians will say that choosing to starve rather than file bankruptcy is a valid life choice, but proponents of the mentioned entitlement programs will probably disagree.

While true, and I agree that it would have to be shielded from bankruptcy...

Gallup found that voters who identify as libertarians ranged from 17 to 23% of the American electorate. However, a 2014 Pew Poll found that 23% of Americans who identify as libertarians have little understanding of libertarianism.

I'm not sure I'm interested in blocking this proposal on 17% of Americans, 23% of whom don't even know what libertarianism actually is.

At that point we're saying libertarians are the "10th dentist who hates Colgate."

While I appreciate their principled stance today, I'm confident that given the choice to cash their UBI check or starve, they'll be the first ones in line at the bank.
Invoking copyright law is unnecessary. It is far simpler and more narrow to claim that they are engaging in the willful destruction or concealment of evidence which is a violation of California Penal Code 135 PC [1][2].

How so?

1. There is a video recording. This is specifically mentioned as a protected category.

2. The video recording of officer conduct prior to and during an arrest constitutes material evidence. Recordings of officer conduct have been entered into evidence previously, so this fulfills the requirement that it be evidence.

3. Officer conduct prior to and during an arrest constitutes an inquiry or investigation. This article indicates that actions prior to an arrest constitute pre-arrest investigation [3] and thus fulfills that requirement.

4. Copyrighted music in the video recording reduces the discoverability of the evidence possibly to the degree of non-discoverability when it previously would have been discoverable. This appears to be at least concealment.

5. The accusation that the officers are deliberately playing copyrighted music resulting in the reduced discoverability. This fulfills the willfulness requirement.

1-4 establish that the specific outcomes observed constitute the hiding of evidence. It should be uncontroversial that the evidence has become less discoverable. 5 is then the only material question, which is whether it was done with the intent to cause the concealment of evidence.

Based on the above logic, I think it is fairly safe to say that, if they are doing as claimed, then they are violating California Penal Code 135 PC. The only part in the above logic that seems weak is point 3 as I am not sure if it is actually an inquiry or investigation. If point 3 is invalid, then I think the best thing to do would be to amend it to include officer conduct during pre-arrest investigation with respect to the eventually arrested party. This is a far better option than invoking copyright law as it would be narrowly defined to only target the specific willful action that seems unethical which is intentionally playing copyrighted music to prevent the posting of video recordings.

I followed the first two thirds of this, and stopped because I felt that I wasn't getting much. A lot of names for things I already knew, but nary a theorem or meaty result that gave me any new insight. I think my greatest benefit was no longer feeling like MacLane's book needs to be on my reading list.

Also, I discovered that there are cranks even in category theory! There was this guy Robert Rosen who tried to apply it to biology, got totally confused, wrote three giant books, and now has a posthumous following. That wasn't something the lecturers were pushing, but it came up among the students.
Bullshit jobs and unpleasant jobs aren't the same.

This study gave a single (USD-equivalent) $5,900 payment, not a recurring monthly payment. The benefit was demonstrated to last a number of months.

It's worth comparing this to the US median income. That's about $32k annually, which equals $2,666 / month. I wouldn't expect a universal basic income program to attempt to be an equivalent alternative to earning the median income.
Two players of similar skill would probably get creamed by a team with a large skill disparity.
The front camera is the most important innovation to me. I think this will really bring video calling to the masses, for the first time.

Many people have been doing that with laptops, but the increased mobility will make a huge difference.

(edit: also, I was mystefied why the iPad doesn't have one. Surely the first update will?!)
Non-quicktime video URL, anyone? heh, perhaps one in flash?
Eee...memory in a human doesn't work the same as memory in a computer (which your sortof illustrated with your car keys example).

It's not like your brain just deletes entire memories; your brain simply does not work that way.

You'd never have a second first kiss, or a second time learning how to ride a bike, or a time when you got to fall in love with your wife again...you wouldn't forget about having kids, and get to experience raising them again.

Just as exploring the river-bed near my childhood home isn't exciting to me anymore (sadly), you'd have to be continually seeking out new experiences in order to get that positive you're-doing-something-new feedback from your brain.
The way they have made this video it looks as if they had come up with the definite cure to cancer, aids, etc ... I don't like it.

Eh, requires Quicktime. Hooray for the Open Web.

I'll just take your word that it's really shiny.
Well, not if you drop it on the pavement; though how it actually behaves in that situation remains to be seen.
Are his books any good?
Definately.

Personal anecdote: I worked in finance back then at London Stock Exchange. The building we were in was next to St Paul's Cathedral, where Occupy London were setup.

They were nice guys and girls, I went out to talk to them occasionally and bought them donuts and stuff. When I asked what they wanted, they couldn't tell me. I think I knew the movement was dead at that point. If you have no "demands" and what are people meant to do for you?

Even brexiteers with their self contradictory demands managed to get something done.

I think occupy was more like Woodstock (an event or experience) than a "movement" in the end...
There's some of that on https://matomo.org/, not sure why OP linked to github instead.
I would recommend Threema. It's been recently open-sourced and has the most secure encryption mechanism.

You are not Ryanair's customer. I don't think that bothers them.
That's not really necessary as long as they have a coherent message. Occupy had that, BLM has it, Antifa does, and none of these organizations are formally structured ones, they have no leaders, no HQ, etc. They are groups organized via common goals.

I mean I'm sure they have some ring leaders, the people that organize the protests and do a lot of the leg work, and I'm sure they're on the Lists of the various agencies, but it's not like Trump can get on stage and do his "we got 'em" moment announcing they captured the leader of antifa.
Everyone who uses WhatsApp has to have a phone. And so they can still receive and send SMS. That’s what I (in Germany) use for people who insist on using mobile-text communication.
The MWI doesn't really solve the measurement problem - it still doesn't explain in any way why two different detectors that according to the Scrodinger equation should both see the same amplitude for a particular particle at their location will never both detect the particle - only one of them will.

However, we also know that the original particle can actually interact with two different particles at the two different locations.

MWI can't actually explain this well-confirmed observation (and no, decoherence doesn't explain it - it just explains why macroscopic systems don't exhibit interference with themselves or with other macroscopic systems).

At a more relevant practical level, there is no theory that can predict what value a quantum measurement will have beyond probabilities. This is an easily observable fact - and finding the way to perfectly predict the value of a quantum measurement would probably make QM inconsistent with special relativity for example.
Norway's scale of UBI is a lot less than the oil rich Arabic states' though. Those states may not have much civil liberties but material quality of life is undeniably not bad for most locals.
I think the recent experience in Texas shows that you have to plan for the worst case even if you don't think it will be necessary. Anecdotally, I know the manager of a car dealership here in Utah (we get real winters, at least sometimes and in parts of the state) who says he gets a lot of Tesla owners trading in their cars, and he implied it had to do with range issues.
Depends on the shop.

I've seen video game studios which essentially have a single wunderkind who has to dabble in everything because no one else reaches his or her skill level. No other industry has low pay and crunch
Exactly. I'm a libertarian who had never voted for a major party federal candidate and yet I found myself voting for the conservative option of Biden this time around. I want to go back to hating the government a normal amount. The military-industrial-surveillance complex is evil, but at least it has a vested interest to not wantonly kill half a million Americans.
Just adding a library to application code is not sufficient. What I mean is that organizations should not roll their own SSO provider. At the very least, work with one of the many companies that offer it as a product or service. If your threat model requires it, you can host the product on premises.
are you just assuming that i haven't done my homework?
It should be reversed:

poke username -- path/to/command arg1 arg2

The command would fork, execute the child, wait for the child to finish, then send out its notification.

This would also allow flags like:

poke --on-failure @koolba -- path/to/foo

Or even handling the child taking too long:

poke --on-lagging 20m @koolba -- path/to/something-that-might-hang
Certainly, someone can inact policy that reshapes a market.

I don't know why we'd care too much about it here. Japan's unemployment rate is 3%: as far as I understand, people are working these jobs because they are their dream jobs, not because they don't have options with better conditions.

There are lots of other jobs in the entertainment industry like this - hard work, low pay, long line of people who want them - and I can't find it within myself care all that much about the outcome.
The standard American date format (MM/dd/yyyy) also somewhat has this property for a limited number of use cases.

Sorting within a single year will work, sorting multiple years will place the same date adjacent to each other so it makes them easy to compare if you are printing out let's say sales data.
I keep seeing people say this. Maybe flying cars just don’t make sense? Wheels work really well when your engine dies. Have you seen people drive in 2d space? You want to add a z axis? What’s the efficiency of a small plane? Surely not better than a Prius.

Edit: I looked it up and a Cessna gets ~15 mpg.
right, if you know how cookies and urls work, all that can happen with zero cookies and some query parameters, like the ones google search surreptitious add on every search result.

cookie synch, It's a freaking industry standard. And you want us to believe google money cow will dry as soon as the effort they are leading goes live?
Well, Rust (or any language) won't prevent business logic bugs.

> Or does the author mean "works" in that it runs where an interpreted language would not (i.e, syntax error)?

More than that, but close. i.e. you won't get NPE from java. Syntax error or type mismatch from interpreted language.

In addition, NewType pattern will stop you from passing seconds into a function that takes ms and vice versa. You won't get data races. You also won't get an `undefined is not an object`.

Long story short, due to language verbosity it's hard to make logical mistakes.
Intel's processes (i.e. turning files on a computer into chips) have been a complete disaster in recent years, to the point of basically missing one of their key die shrinks entirely as far as I can tell.

They are, in a certain sense, suffering from their own success in that their competitors have basically been nonexistant up until Zen came about (and even then only until Zen 3 have Intel truly been knocked off their single thread perch). This has led to them getting cagey, and a bit ridiculous in the sense that they are not only backporting new designs to old processes but also pumping them up to genuinely ridiculous power budgets. With Apple, AMD, and TSMC they have basically been caught with their trousers down by younger and leaner companies.

Ultimately this is where Intel need good leadership. The mba solution is to just give up and do something else (e.g. spin off the fabs), but I think they should have the confidence (as far as I can tell this is what they are doing) to rise to the technical challenge - they will probably never have a run like they did from Nehalem to shortly before now, but throwing in the towel means that the probability is zero.

Intel have been in situations like this before, e.g. When Itanium was clearly doomed and AMD were doing well (amd64), they came back with new processors and basically ran away to the bank for years - AMD's server market share is still pitiful compared to Intel (10% at most), for example.
I don't know if crypto is good or bad, but I can't imagine this feature driving Signal uptake. It would be better to focus on allowing ordinary payments in GBP via Signal. Even if the payments themselves weren't private, the messages still would be.
There is a subtle but important difference. To be more precise, consider the following two statements:

1) There exists some n such that all integers >= n satisfy the desired property.

2) For n = [a specific constant], all integers >= n satisfy the desired property.

These two statements are not the same, but both imply that there are a finite number of counterexamples. The second one is stronger, since we could prove the statement by enumerating all k < n and checking the statement for each such k; if all these checks pass, then the statement is correct.

This strategy does not work for the first strategy since we do not know n, only that such an n exists. In particular, there could be a non-constructive proof that establishes existence of such an n without providing any way to compute such an n.

From the discussion, it does sound like this paper is proving (2), not (1).
Here's a lynx --dump paste: https://pastebin.com/4n2DQ7Pc

tldr: First, it destroys intrinsic motivation. The requirement that the grading be done on a curve then produces losers where there are none. The employees game the system and this in turn destroys cooperation.
Yes, quite simply they have fallen behind while also promising things they have failed to deliver. As an example, their most recent flagship release is the 11900k, which has 2 fewer cores (now 8) than its predecessor (had 10, 10900k), and almost no improvement to speak of otherwise (in some games its ~1% faster). On the other hand, AMD's flagship, which to be fair is $150 more expensive, has 16 cores, very similar clock speeds, and is much more energy efficient (intel and amd calculate TDP differently). Overall, AMD is the better choice by a large margin and Intel is getting flock because it sat on its laurels for the last decade(?) and hasn't done anything to improve itself.

To put it in numbers alone, look at this benchmark. Flagship vs Flagship: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/Intel-i9-11900K-vs-AMD-...
