What I've found is that in the short term you may question everything, but in the long term you settle back down and only continue questioning what you should have been questioning in the first place.
Heh, that's the diff between early stage and growth stage. Some people like going 0-1, others like riding what others have built.
Yeah. I mean this more as a thought experiment as it's not even really feasible technically (how would you ensure someone is where they said they were).

Indeed. There are some projects called Rail AND Trail, and imo this distinction should be talked about more.

For example, a 32 mile old railroad in Santa Cruz, CA that is being revitalized for electric trains AND getting a bike path built alongside it: https://www.railandtrail.org/discover.html
Well, ABP has "acceptable ads" turned on by default , but Adblock is pretty much just worse in every way.. Here's a few items from the changelog before they moved to a closed development mode

AdBlock 2.6.11 (2013-10-25): The AdBlock feature which sends a unique user ID to the AdBlock server every day has been extended. The server can now decide that the user should see a survey — this one is being opened in a new tab, immediately, no matter what the user is doing right now.

AdBlock 2.6.14 (2013-11-09): AdBlock won’t just send a unique user ID to its server now, it will also transmit user’s setting determining whether Google Search ads are allowed.

AdBlock 2.6.29 (2014-04-28): The “AdBlock custom filters” (AdBlock-specific filter list that is installed by default and listed as recommended) add a set of filters to whitelist Mixpanel tracking on the AdBlock website.

AdBlock 2.7 (2014-06-06): Also, AdBlock will tell getadblock.com whether AdBlock has just been installed or has been used for a while
Sure, they created those tools.

But they grew on PHP. Those tools came to be after "a lot of time"

And of course they're not the only site that uses PHP (see all the Wordpress installations, etc)
> Barring artificial distortions (immigration/emigration restrictions), people will move to where they can get the best deal;

No, they won't. Many people value staying near home more than they value additional salary. That's especially true for people who'd have to move house thousands of miles into a new culture, but it's true even of people within the US.

2029 is a long way still and I would be surprised if the Turing Test wasn't passed. The past few years have had massive progress in AI. A few years ago machine vision was an impossible problem believed to require strong AI, and now we are exceeding humans.

Massive progress is being made in natural language understanding too. A number of papers have just come out on using deep NNs to do question answering or conversation.
I've been battling with this issue for quite sometime now. I did not find the 'ultimate' solution (probably because there isn't any but self-discipline). One important tool that I found most helpful was `Reminders` on OSX, specifically the fact that I can put an alarm (one-off or recurrent) on each task. Given that Reminders are synced across devices (iPhone, iPad) and are available in the notifications center this helps me a lot when I'm on the move. One downside of using this method or any other is that your capacity to memorize the due tasks disappears as soon as you write them down. I'm not sure what's the psychological/neurological explanation for this, but it's true. If your task list is not that big, your brain is the best way to keep track of them. Otherwise be prepared to skip a few as soon as jot them down.

No, he wasn't exclusively concentrated in tech or growth.
Lots of shade because they first missed the whole mobile market, then got beat by AMD Zen by missing the chiplet concept and a successful current-gen process size, then finally also overshadowed by Apple's M1. The M1 thing is interesting, because it likely means the next set of ARM Neoverse CPUs for servers, from Amazon and others, will be really impressive. Intel is behind on many fronts.
> 8 (!) 64 bit DRAM channels

Yeah. And at 3200 Mbit/sec, that comes out to 200GB/s. (3200 MHz x 8-bytes (aka 64-bit) == 25GB/s. x8 channels == 200GB/s).

> where IIRC the biggest NVIDIA part is still at 6.

That's 6x *1024-bit* HBM2 channels. Total bandwidth is 2000GBps, or over 10x the speed of the "8x channel EPYC". Yeah, HBM2 is fat, extremely fat.

----------

*ONE* HBM2 channel offers over 300GBps bandwidth. And the A100 has *SIX* of them. Literally ONE HBM2 channel beats the speed of all 8x DDR4 EPYC memory channels working in parallel.
In a reductionist sort of way, I guess I am. But they should probably ask for permission before archiving stuff forevermore. Or at least make it easier to block them.
I'm fairly certain Stripe handles that, no?
Keep in mind that at some point (depending on your distance from the screen, which tends to be 18-24 inches for developers), the size of the screen grows beyond what you can see without intentionally looking off at an angle.

I would argue that 32" is enough. Maybe 35-40 if it were curved. Of course, if I could have a 1:1 aspect ratio screen which was spherical, that would be ideal. Even so, you only get so much benefit from larger size.

My primary monitor is an LG 27UD58 "4k". It is fantastic in terms of visual quality and even gaming. But as far as I can tell, there's no good upsize option. I'm hoping for improvements in VR style glasses which would allow me to look all around and see a virtual big screen on demand.

Two monitors are nice, but then you're always looking a bit to the left or right. Two stacked monitors are nice, but then you're looking significantly up or down. There's no good answer :/, other than a neural interface which does not yet exist.

The geek culture in the US is simply amazing. People build all kinds of miraculous machineries at home, many of which have become world-class products. Some products even changed the history of mankind.

What's even more amazing is that the US somehow keeps this culture despite decades of mockery and bullying from the pop culture and from school, and despite that generations of Americans thought that the biggest events had to be the football games in their neighborhood high schools and the coolest people were queen bees and sports jockeys.

Can anyone else repeat his experiment?

I tried repeating the experiment. I'm in Sweden, so, annoyingly, a request to google.com redirects to google.se. If I send my request directly to google.se, I get 9k response in 130ms and the initial window looks like 4 to me, i.e. I can't see anything unexpected happening.

I then tried repeating on Amazon EC2. I can't see anything unexpected there either, but the RTT from EC2 to google is only about 3ms, which means I can't assume that the ACKS don't get there.

(The original article author looks at how long the initial 3-way handshake takes and then assumes that all packets take that long, or, probably, half as long, i.e. he assumes that ACKS sent up to one RTT before a packet from google can't have arrived at google in time to affect that packet)

Can anyone else reproduce the experiment?

Other ideas: repeat from Sweden, but send a cookie so that I really get google.com. Repeat from EC2, but make sure I never send any ACKs after the three-way handshake. I'm not curious enough to do the latter, it's a fair bit of work.
Definitely a good point.

I feel like it might still help you to avoid wasting time exhaustingly hashing already strong passwords. I mean, how high does that uniform work factor have to be?

The guy whose password is "password" or "qwerty12" is gonna get cracked no matter what, sure. But what about people whose passwords are a couple of dictionary words? If the work factor means each hash takes a second or two, even a slightly complex dictionary attack becomes fruitless (for most crackers...)

So the user can still log in, but it takes a second or two, and there's that little message, "To ensure the safety of your password, your login has been slowed down. If you use a more secure password, like <generate password>, you will login much faster!"

And the young lady using "6ab$TRa?" isn't being punished for the fact that most users use crappy passwords, nor is your server.

The specific improvement scrypt makes over bcrypt is not yet relevant; nobody has ever hardware-optimized a bcrypt cracker, and the project that successfully does so and publishes their results will have made a contribution to cryptography literature.

Sure they have. A hardware-optimized bcrypt cracker is called a GPU. I can buy a 480-core GPU on Newegg for $350, but it doesn't come with any more RAM than a low-end PC does.
I'm not so sure that's the case--if the ChromeOS team is sucking valuable resources from anyone it would be the Chrome team.
Although a bit sensationalist, articles like this recall the fact that China will "soon" be a huge market effectively invisible to the English-speaking world.

There's QQ. But what English-speaking tech companies are making inroads into China? Microsoft, Google (who "pulled out") and Amazon.cn (a '04 acquisition) are the big ones I see. It it a matter of money to get the foot in the door?
Actually, the IRS has been cracking down on 1099 abuse. So, he doesn't necessarily need to get a lawyer, he could possibly just notify the IRS and let them come in with lawyers.

I agree with you that using the law is always a bit of a gamble. But the mere threat of calling in the IRS might be useful.
Overvalued or not, Tencent is gold.
I agree with your last point, but things like extensive jQuery and TypeKit usage are demonstrating there's an appetite to do a lot of semi-essential rendering and event processing in JavaScript nowadays.

Businesses exist to make money, not just to give people in power a place to harumph about. More productivity IS important, because without that, businesses are losing out on potential income, and that's not what businesses like to do.
He makes an excellent point about the possibility of comparing word vectors trained on different corpora to make quantitative statements about differences in culture, either over time or between sub-cultures:

"I’d like to emphasize that which words are feminine or masculine, young or adult, isn’t intrinsic. It’s a reflection of our culture, through our use of language in a cultural artifact. What this might say about our culture is beyond the scope of this essay. My hope is that this trick, and machine learning more broadly, might be a useful tool in sociology, and especially subjects like gender, race, and disability studies."
As for your restatement, it no longer has anything to do with immigration policy, since there are plenty of "high level" Chinese native employees at Chinese companies. I'd also choose unemployment over a low-level job at a place like Walmart.

Because it costs less. Plus people get sucked up into the hype about how it's great for "brainstorming."

Anyone who's spent much time looking at business trends knows it doesn't really matter how much evidence is produced against something; look at the companies still paying through the nose for meaningless Myers-Briggs tests.
I don't think so. The more novel something is, the higher the chance that no one thought of it, and so could not patent it.

If something is patented, that means people know of it, and will try to patent similar things or parts of it that haven't been patented yet, making it riskier.
I'm a bit confused about the part of the FAQ which says "he's requested to enter his public/private key (which is automatically generated) and accept the terms"

This stuff left me confused about all the wallets and keypairs and things going around (not to mention the very idea of private keys other people have access to).

You could make a nice diagram with some arrows showing all the different things and how they're exchanged.
In this case, the evidence that this is a hoax makes me feel that the government had no involvement in this.

However, for future reference, yes. The government would easily contract out something like this. There is a virtually no limit to what the government would contract out. For example, some of my co-workers work on the no-fly-list database/content repository.

There's very little that the government does in-house these days.

I actually went the other direction. I have no problem charging my phone every night, and charging a watch at the same time would be a non-issue. Upon hearing that the apple watch will hit a battery life closer to 18 hours rather than the rumored12, I actually cancelled my backing for pebble time in favor of planning to buy the apple watch.
Fair point. But for people who are doing these: please put the same instructions what is needed for the password when logging in the later time through normal login process. It might help to remember the password better (at least would help one person on this planet, me).

Trying to sell a product that barely works. Trying to recruit people to work for no money. Worrying about how I'll pay my mortgage in a couple of months. Oh yeah, I'm having the time of my life. :)

What gets me? Right now, when there's no money and more vision than product, engineers are volunteering to help, because I'm building something designed specifically to solve their most frustrating and unproductive problems. I suspect that in six months or a year, when there's money for salaries and a decent number of actual customers, those volunteers will dry up. :) But I suspect a different kind of volunteering will happen, maybe with different people.

Oh, do you work on a large (multiple teams) software project? Want to know how I plan to make your life suck less? Get in touch!
This is all well and great, but it will lead to a reduction in revenue for the city, as well as an increased expense in having all of the signs reprinted. As long as someone somewhere is making money, it's never going to change.
It really ought to be possible to have a dynamic browser hook in Firefox's parsing phase to allow pre-manipulation of the DOM (or raw HTML) in native code. However actually finding the right spot in the giant codebase to do this is another matter.
>and they will take alternate methods of transportation

More likely they simply will not go there, or will visit another location (drive to the burbs, etc).

There is another interesting aspect of the parking problem that hasn't been discussed, which is the environmental damage parking regulations cause. If you're not a $250K/yr programmer on the coasts, a $95 parking ticket is an expensive surprise, and equivalent to at least 200 miles of driving. So, if parking tickets are expensive and a uncontrollable confusopoly cost of living, its cheaper / safer / more predictable to simply drive out to the burbs, where theres usually a better selection of businesses anyway. Which wastes a lot of gas. I can afford the tickets, and there's plenty of dying retail downtown where I work, but I don't want to deal with getting tickets, paying tickets, getting towed, I live in the burbs anyway, so the downtown loses a lot of economic activity and the environment loses because of extra driving. But the priority is people aren't driving downtown. Sort of a stealth zoning, this area not fit for retail, but we'll categorize it as retail anyway. This also fits into the "high cost of being poor" concept where I might save $100 on rent on paper by living downtown in a bad area, but if the stealth tax of $95 of monthly parking tickets is applied, plus the hassle, I'm better off in the burbs.
I think I had sluggish behaviour sometime ago - but the updates to the config are happening at a very fast pace. I'm a pretty happy user.

Not necessarily. In most cases administration access to these things are on an entirely separate network from connection protocol. Having an iSCSI / nfs connection isn't enough; you'd also have to be on the same network as the management interface.

Can you imagine if Microsoft did something like this? Leaving 20% of all Windows users unsupported!

For me, it's just another example of the kinds of things Apple can get away with and no one bats an eye. 20% of all Mac users must upgrade or risk being unsecure. So what the upgrades are free? What if you have a critical piece of software that isn't compatible with the latest OS X? Or what if your hardware can't support an upgrade?

EDIT: Some people are making comparisons to MS dropping XP support, but I don't think that's a fair comparison since XP was released in 2001 and Snow Leopard in 2009.
