I guess for the purpose of travel, and you really need to, you can always use symmetric encryption to encrypt your seeds with a strong passphrase, then travel with that.
Cool idea, let's see how I did:

- 41 projects backed

- 5 unsuccessful

- 5 I cancelled

- 1 outright scam

- 1 not delivered

- 27 delivered

- 2 still pending, including SpaceVenture at 9 years.

Of the 27 delivered

- 15 video games or software. Most were delayed, but were generally considered excellent when they were finally delivered.

- 4 physical objects that wound up being just OK. (Coffee Joules, Brimstone Card Deck, Fidget Cube, Thimble Slide)

- 8 media (books or cds) that I mostly really liked
>Investors should be blocked from recovering losses and victims should be compensated.

I think Levine's take is a bit more nuanced. It's not like shareholders are taking up the case for some altruistic reasons, it's just that for lawyers it's an easier case to litigate. To paraphrase Matt, if you had to sue the CEO, on behalf of victims, for sexual harassment, as a lawyer you would have to prove the damages by showing that maybe the CEO had a pattern, that the victim was actually traumatized and not just "regretting it" and any other of mountain of historically charged counter claims of sexual harassment. But securities fraud, all the lawyer has to do is point to a newspaper article about how the news came out and the stock went down.

In other words, investors being blocked from being compensated wouldn't solve the issue - it would just remove a possible disincentive for actors to act improperly.
Why did they adopt Scala in the first place? I remember around 2012-2014 it was the hawtness. My guess is that there are languages that give you much of the power of Scala without the complexity - Kotlin, and modern Java, having caught up.
I think it would be sadder if mom and dad had terrible security and lost their savings or treasured memories as a result. Optimizing for one group is always going to cause some problems for a different group, and if I had to choose I'd optimize for the majority every time.
I saw the title earlier today and didn't read it, but then when it later had so many comments I figured it was important. I was pretty shocked when I recognized the picture and github username. I'm really glad that you did write it, and I'm glad that I could make it worthwhile for you :)

Safe travels,

Jebediah does own a vendor company that works with the space agency, so one can only assume that he is essentially Elon Musk but greener, and also an astronaut.
Why do I get the strange feeling that most of these comments were posted by males, I wonder?

Leaving college aside, there has been a lot of discussion of rape in the military. Apparently there are a number of repeat predators, in an environment where bringing an accusation can result in the accuser's being thrown out of the military, shunned, or assaulted. (Male victims abound, by the way.) I would love to see this simulation with numbers based on the military experience. Meanwhile the military are reluctant to allow outside interference in their complicity with rape. The missing item in the reporting is how many of those accused were accused more than once. http://www.militarytimes.com/story/military/pentagon/2014/12...
Uber drivers still discriminate on location. When I wanted an SUV near Golden Gate Park, the first driver assigned to me cancelled the trip, and the second phoned me to verbally confirm before coming that far.
If you add the exclusive technology and you cut out the people, profits go through the roof. Do you think Uber wants to keep paying out 70% of each ride to a driver? They'd rather buy more expensive cars (servers) and have less humans in the mix over time. Humans take things like vacations and make the wrong decisions at a non-miniscule rate.
OK I'll bite. For this answer I'll assume "easily" to mean "with less typing".

ed has a more concise syntax for joining arbitrary lines of a file (by line number or pattern) and then saving the file (by way of a temp file in $TMPDIR). You could do this with awk and perhaps with other standard tools (note: I don't consider perl to be "standard"). But I think it's safe to say the ed script would always be shorter. ed's syntax for deleting and moving arbitrary lines is similarly concise. For these specific tasks, it's not going to be easy to win at code golf using awk or other tools... and in some cases it may be impossible.
Nice project Cristiano, I'm quite interested in contributing as a professional photographer, but you're asking for awful lot of personal information in your "Contributor Program Application" page. Why would you need a date of birth, mobile phone number and my street address to join?
The Forth community takes this one step further: it's more common to see someone discussing their implementation of the Forth language, than to see someone discussing what they developed in Forth.
If cars were cheaper due to less taxes, people would just pocket the savings instead of spending on safety features. Seatbelts are standard in all modern cars, yet many don't even wear them. Imagine if they were optional too.

You need regulation --- and more importantly enforcement --- to improve any road safety culture here.
I'm a little miffed that this comment has a better explanation of "why I should care about K-9 Mail" than anything I could find from deliberately looking for that information on their site. The "about" page just talks about the team, and their blog posts, even the one "what's up with K-9?" just talk about release schedules.
On the App Store's UI:

For consumers using the App Store, the discovery process has been a huge pain point for as long as I can remember. Saying that the App Store doesn't scale to the >1 million apps it now contains is, in my opinion, overly generous. It failed to scale to much smaller libraries than the one it currently has. I can only imagine the frustration this causes developers actually trying to use it to sell software.

Content discovery is a very difficult problem to solve, and I don't think Apple's going to be able to solve it internally. Instead, I think they should focus on creating tools that make the App Store more open to sharing and discovery among communities.

A very simplistic example: I want the App Store to support user-generated 'playlists' of applications, kind of like Spotify. Users could package up a group of applications that appeals to them and share it online. It would be a small improvement, since people can already post lists of links to individual apps in the store, but it would make the process of finding/sharing new games, workflows, etc. much more organic.
As someone who has worked on migration project from redhat 6 to redhat 7, I strongly disagree.
> ...especially within a country (same pay for California or Nebraska) because movement is so easy.

I can't entirely agree with this.

Yes, it's easier to move if your job is completely remote.
But for many people, the most significant barriers are not financial problems but mental ones.

Even though I'm single, I have few friends near my house and am satisfied with my current living environment.
It's a bit scary to move to somewhere I don't know.
And if I lived with a family, it would be much harder.

That's why the house prices are skyrocketing even though more people have started working entirely remotely.
The majority of remote workers are still living in a big town and don't plan to move to the countryside in the near future.

I am a indy film producer in the DC area. I have produced a web series, 2 short films, and a handful of music videos. What you are looking for is much bigger than what i am capable of giving you. Regardless, I'd love to help in any way i can. We are currently seeking funding for 1 feature whilst trying to pitch 2 TV shows.

I just went through the code and it is indeed pretty trivial to remove both restrictions. If you want to do it, in the iPhoneTrackingAppDelegate implementation file:

* Change the precision variable on line 149 to something bigger than 100 (10000 did it for me) - this will mark points in the map with higher precision:

const float precision = 10000;

* Change the timeBucket variable on line 180 to change the date precision (the app currently gives you weekly based data, but it can go as far a data point every second). You could also just "cheat" and change the notion of weekInSeconds:

const float weekInSeconds = (7*24*60*60);
That could be related to the iOS location bugs. I know there were a couple where the phone would refuse to believe that it was anywhere but 1000 miles away.
Above the break: A gaudy menu and ADS! Nothing but ads.

After the break... I only noticed there even WAS more content when I saw how large my scrollbar was.
Very interesting data, but how does it demonstrate that MS is, as of now, any slower at addressing vulnerabilities than any other vendor? The report is more than two years old (it says the data is from Feb 2009), and it is based on vulnerabilities discovered over the life of each product. That puts MS at an obvious disadvantage because it includes their "slow start" in fixing a host of early vulnerabilities, while excluding their more recent efforts, which are surely more respectable.

Do you know of any data covering 2009 to now? That would be more useful.
For me this works:

It seems promising.
It's not science, or science-adjacent, or anything to do with science. It doesn't pretend to be. That's not what it's for.

You can always lie, about anything you like. You can put salt in the sugar bowl. You can substitute decaf in for the coffee at the office, and give everybody caffeine-withdrawl headaches. You can have your dog crap in the sandbox at the park. What do you imagine you would prove, by that? (I give you exactly one guess.)

All you did lying on the test was to land in a different box than if you had not lied. But one box is not better than another box, so what good did that do? It means somebody who looks and believes it will find it harder to communicate with you. What you achieved was to throw sand in the gears. Congratulations.
Ah man, they're gonna need to introduce new characters on Cells At Work! every one-to-two years at this rate.

The notion that we can replace ideals with "proper systems design" is called Positivism. We've tried it, and variants like Marxism. None of them work.

Humans are limited animals. Enlightenment ideals, which are (yes) secularized religions concepts, are the best we've been able to do so far. Maybe at some point in the future we'll be able to do better but I'm not holding my breath.
Not a huge fan of the Apple TV remote either (But I also don't hate it). The good news is that the Apple TV plays nice with stock TV remotes + game console controllers — I use my 8bitdo Sn30 Pro, but PS/Xbox controllers should work fine too.

If you already own an extra gamepad, then it's worth a try and doesn't cost extra. There's a few gems in Apple Arcade, which was a surprise.
I think Fedex drivers sometimes just mark items as delivered that they won't get around to until the next day. I don't know how to explain it other than that. I've experienced the same thing (driver marked delivered, but it wasn't) and the package showed up the next day or two. Only with Fedex...
We're pretty much on the same page. I'm not sure if I share your enthusiasm for clone(), but I think the canonical Linux interface is what's going to save us from the dark patterns we see in userspace. I think everyone should learn how to use raw system calls. Because the first thought that's going to cross their mind is "wow I thought my C library was doing all these things" and then they're going to want a C library that offers more value than putting a number in the eax register.

For example if you want to call fork() using asm() then on Linux it's simple:

int fork(void) {
int ax;
asm volatile("syscall" : "=a"(ax) : "0"(57) : "rcx", "r11", "memory", "cc");
if (ax > -4096) errno = -ax, ax = -1;
return ax;
}

But if you want to support XNU, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and NetBSD too, it gets a little trickier:

int fork(void) {
char cf;
int ax, dx;
ax = IsLinux() ? 57 : 2;
if (IsXnu()) ax |= 0x2000000;
asm volatile("clc\n\t"
"syscall"
: "+a"(ax), "=d"(dx), "=@ccc"(cf)
: "1"(0)
: "rcx", "r11", "memory", "cc");
if (cf) ax = -ax;
if (ax > -4096) errno = -ax, ax = -1;
if (ax != -1) ax &= dx - 1;
return ax;
}

Cosmopolitan abstracts stuff like that for you, but right now that's only if you're the kind of person who doesn't need threads. I imagine you are, since folks who do smart things with multiprocessing models like Go and Chromium usually don't want C libraries potentially stepping on their toes. Oh gosh threads. The day I figure out how to do those, will be day the whole world will want to use this thing. But I want people who use Cosmopolitan Libc to know what value it's providing them. I think the best way to do that is by raising awareness of the systems engineering fundamentals like this. Because that's something you're right to point out that the Linux community leadership has room for improvement on.
> There was once a poll of engineers at the tech company I work at, and I think the results were like 70% INTJ, 25% INTP, and 5% other. If MBTI lacked all predictive power, you would expect a distribution roughly equivalent to that of the general population. Could people self-select what they "want" to be? Sure, but it's still predictive of something in that case.

I was once part of an accelerator that used the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument, which basically seemed like MBTI except with more fees. And it got very similar results for the engineers in the room. Introverted analysts.

And anecdotally, I know very few non INTJ engineers and the few that aren't are INTP (among those of us that have taken the test for career planning or personality testing for the workplace).

I get how it may not be a rigorous way to sort people, but I want some research on whether it at least clusters them.
Its not web specific. For example, there are projects to run WebAssembly instead of containers on Kubernetes:

https://krustlet.dev/
Its exactly like that, except only if you're named in the law, and google and facebook are.

Its a horrible law, aimed at what many people think are horrible companies. But its a horrible law regardless.
Ah, got it. I just noticed 1.7.1 is already in CLIP's requirements.txt, weird that colab would still install 1.7.0 to begin with.

Edit: I just realized 1.7.0 just came with colab, not installed by CLIP.
There's no higher compliment. My Bubbe would have been proud to hear it.
So somebody started using software sold by a for-profit company and was surprised when that company wanted to follow-up? Is it really that hard to politely say "no thanks, I'm good"? Or just ignore the message completely? Must every annoyance in life be cause for inciting a Twitter mob?
Elo-like systems (or various other rating systems) are often as part of a matchmaking algorithm - since you can easily calculate expected game win percentages for each party, and this allows you to create more enjoyable matchups. An example of this happens even in online chess: you're much more likely to be paired against a player with a similar rating, because you're much more likely to enjoy a match against someone similarly skilled.
I can only wish these researchers good luck; we don't even understand the gut's microbial ecosystem as it relates to gut diseases.

I, unfortunately, have first hand experience here. The short version of my story is that I started out 2020 with an acid reflux diagnosis and ended 2020 laid out in bed 24/7 eating nothing but rice and potatoes with doctors shrugging over a mystery GI issue.

They finally gave me a specially designed, brand name, and expensive as hell antibiotic that specifically targets the gut microbiota. The drug and its effect is the medical equivalent of the old IT adage: "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" The idea is to rain hell down upon your gut and hope it resets to a better balanced microbiota.

So yeah, that's the current state of modern medicine when it comes to GI issues; bludgeon it to death and hope for the best. So God have mercy on this researcher attempting to identify links between the GI microbiota and other illnesses.

P.S. I was somewhat inclined to go into more details on my journey, cause finding information on GI issues is so hard, but it would be a stupidly long comment. Suffice it to say, I learned a lot about the gut, but mostly about what we don't know. For all those people with IBS-*, SIBO, and NCGI out there, you have my deepest commiserations. Science can take the FODMAP diet and shove it up its poorly understood rectum.

EDIT: I think in my revisions of this comment I forgot an important bit: the treatment seems to have worked. My symptoms are continuing to improve after the round of antibiotics. So as crude as the science may be, at least it worked.
I think this is part of being very systems-oriented and technically-minded. Appreciating the liabilities and brittleness of systems but also the fallibility of men and their aspirations/intentions. The focus on garbage-in/garbage-out, the primacy of an “RTFM” ethos of learning and understanding obscure phenomenon that affect outcomes. Probably some degree of being perpetually frustrated with a “user community” that can’t be bothered to really appreciate how things work spills into policy discussions.
Your comment has nothing to do with the comment you are replying to. It's about quality of life and individual health.

You could breed humans like we do with industrial agriculture and factory farms, but you would have a difficult time arguing this is good for the health of the animals (or people) involved.
Admittedly it is a bit hard to see why Julia is so different in this area if you have not spent some with it. It took me a bit time as well to see.

But there really is a profound difference. The thing is that Python is really just a language to rearrange networks of nodes written in C++. A node written for one ML framework will be incompatible with a node written in another language. If you want them to work together you need to spend a lot of effort gluing them together, and most likely the performance benefits are lost.

This is very different in Julia because you are using pure Julia code. What is specialized C++ nodes in Python, are for the most part just plain functions in Julia. There is nothing special about them. That is why they can be used anywhere.

In Python frameworks each of these C++ nodes need to contain information about how auto-differentiation is done. That is why they are tailor made for one specific ML library.

In Julia the whole automatic differentiation stuff is perform code transformations on regular Julia code.

Are you familiar with LISP, and the idea of code as data? That is what we are talking about here. A regular syntax graph of regular Julia code gets manipulated to do autodiff. You are not organizing C++ nodes in a network.
I think it applies to any job where you have to interview with someone face to face. Like it or not they are probably going to judge on your appearance.
Sadly, I never did a serious literature review.

That said, I naively tried a bunch of naive approaches and had quite a bit of success with plain old gradient descent -- it was really surprising. I'm not sure if it would scale to really significant models, but it's something you could implement in a few hours and you could use to get a project off the ground.
There seems to be two schools of thought when it comes to teaching numerics. You either teach how to effectively implement the algorithms or you teach how to effectively select and apply the algorithms. It seems to be tied to if the computational science department comes out of the Computer or Math department.

I'm personally of the opinion that knowing how to select and apply the right algorithm is far more important to learn for undergraduates. Implementing numerical algorithms correctly and efficiently is serious high level PhD territory, and if you're not going to learn how to do it right you're much better off not doing it at all and leaving it to the experts.
In what way? There are a ton of different ways to answer this question. To raise money? Get a job?

Overall, the pendulum swung too far one direction (in excess) and then as it always does, swung too far back causing a depressed market in a lot of ways.

Talented developers still had jobs and could find work, albeit changing jobs took longer and pay/benefits were obviously affected, relocation became tough to get except in specific cases. But all the outsiders trying to make a quick buck exited or were tossed out and most stayed away for quite a long time, which to me has been a good thing.

Raising money became quite difficult but was still possible.

There was a lot of hype around things that weren't really issues, and a lot of glossing over things that were issues.

Enterprise work was the refuge for a lot of developers as it provided stability, solid pay and benefits.

If you are trying to compare it to now, IMO there are a lot of things that are similar and a lot that are very different, so I think its hard to predict what will happen. If you look at the US economy and history you will see a lot of boom/bust cycles, so it wouldn't shock me if we had a bust of some sort within the next 4-5 years.
Here, take this clause and make sure to put it in an important place in every solar-revolution story (but not in the title of course!):

"The technology still has a way to go because the cells must become more efficient to prove cost-effective, but their promise is big ..."
Yes, the word you're looking for is "stupid."
They misunderstand the negative income tax. My understanding is it doesn't require work necessarily. In function, it's a guaranteed basic income. Milton Friedman on Negative Income Tax -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtpgkX588nM

I bought this game a few years ago. I learned quite a few things about vim. Unfortunately the puzzles in the later levels aren't very clear. I spent hours trying to figure out what on earth they wanted me to do. To me this was counter productive and got less and less fun. I ended up leaving the last few levels unfinished as I felt I got very minimal returns for time invested.

If you're interested in picking up vim, I love it for the first 5 or so levels. After that, not so much. (I currently still use sublime text but do occasionally use vim on servers)
