I highly recommend Modern Compiler Implenentation in ML by Andrew Appel (he is also an inventor of a number of important modern compilation techniques).

I also rather enjoyed Crafting a Compiler. I found the explanations and excercises to be much more practical and enjoyable than the dragon book, but the code authors present is mostly garbage and full of global variables, state mutations and design pattern heavy. Ignore the code and do the excercises yourself.

I always found the Dragon book to be too parsing-heavy which gets boring quickly. The books I listed spend far less time on parsing and much more on code generation and optimization which I find more enjoyable. YMMV.
The powdered leaf also tastes like ass, and to take enough to feel anything is a bit like doing a saltine challenge, so its also self-regulating in that way :)
But the job ads and interviews I've seen and been to are all heavily about the stack and very little about other qualities. E.g. changing language is considered making me junior from senior and halving my salary. Only exception would be a newer tech e.g. GO where perhaps getting experienced people is tough.

Sorry, I think I might be misunderstanding you. By "We live in the base reality", do you mean "Even if we live in a simulation, the simulation itself is hosted somewhere; following back the chain, eventually you reach the base reality. Therefore in the same sense as one should say that Microsoft Word runs/exists in our real world, one should say that (even if we're simulated) we exist in the base reality"?

The point wasn't to take genetics literally.

The point was that - much like how a homogeneous genetic population will tend to amplify its defects compared to a heterogeneous one - so will a homogeneous ideological population. The diversity is what brings in new ideas and viewpoints.

The very idea of the American "melting pot" is rooted in this philosophy; immigrants both adapt to existing customs and introduce new ones, thus making the America as a whole (lots of us Americans seem to forget this, including at least one of our presidential candidates, but such is life). This can be and has been applied on smaller scales to various organizations with much success.

This isn't only about race or only about gender or only about sexual orientation or only about political affiliation or only about socioeconomic class; it's about all of these things influencing an individual's background in a way that is different from the group as a whole.

here is a list that I just found.

The important think to remember is that a huge part of humanity lives on less than 2 dollars a day.

Wealth among the poorest has increased over the last 20 years but that does not matter. I think now about 1 billion people live on 2 dollars a day - It used to be 3 billion when I was younger.

If you go down the list above you will start to have to trade security for cheapness. However having a laptop does not make someone rich anymore these days.

Somalia for example, my friend who has been there has told me that fibre seems to be everywhere !

However You do not have to go to Somalia, you can choose a country based on factors that is important to you.

Sure, totally agree that it'd be great if this was a low level feature of the OS that seamlessly integrated with any possible GUI for authentication from readline and up. But we could sit here all day and enumerate ways in which open source operating systems and desktop environments are less integrated than others.

Which drugs cause "high physical addiction" with one dose?
If I were you: 1) I would go work in a computational biology lab, get some papers out, Cancer research is always a step ahead but there a lot of good projects in Neuroscience too (immunology could also work). Go to the best lab you have around, most PIs know that it is hard to find good programmers because they mostly go to the big tech companies or startups. Make sure you don't do wet lab at this step it is going to be a waste of your time since you will not have time to do anything meaningful. 2) With the papers apply to medicine or preferably to MD/PhD program, if you get into MD/PhD program you will have time to learn some real science too. In any case if you are the ambitious type of person when doing step 1 try not to get stuck working as a bioinformatician: lower salaries than tech although better than biologists, you will hit the ladder cap faster, very few transcend to become leaders and command multidisciplinary groups. Good luck!

I think this is a false dichotomy. If developers are incentivized to make stable software then they'll make stable software but that's not the case. Software engineers that work on products are promoted based on number of features they ship, not how many production outages they don't cause. It's like the senator that lobbies to put bolted doors on plane cockpits before 9/11. That senator will get zero credit for anything. Fundamentally it is harder to measure the effectiveness of preventive measures so most organizations don't and instead settle for number of features shipped.
tl;dr - it's a nice attempt but completely unfeasible as per below:

If I'm genetically predisposed to not want to eat my vegetables, does that mean I shouldn't be encouraged to eat my vegetables? Does that also mean that a group of people who are genetically predisposed to want to eat their vegetables shouldn't encourage me to try gardening and possibly even join their vegetable cooking club? Should they not themselves be encouraged to invite me to said vegetable cooking club simply because I'm genetically predisposed to having a tendency to decline such a proposition?

I disagree. Firing assholes is never bad for culture. On the contrary, it increases morale and makes the workplace better.

Keep in mind that I don't categorize laughing at someone's work as a "simple mistake." Bugs can be simple mistakes. Offensive jokes can be simple mistakes. Laughing at someone's work however is deeply troubling behavior that actively undermines trust and discourages cooperation in the workplace. That's why you have to kill it with fire.
Aren't the horrors of legacy and the lines of tech hipsterism often blurry though? I was born late, I often look at things older than me for an understanding where stuff came from.

Why Apache Software Foundation is becoming the graveyard of open source software
Since we don't know the actual method for verification this is speculation, but people put too much faith in phone calls, and telecom CPE security is often lax. You might be able to spoof verification of an NSL by hacking the DOSA capability of the FBI's PBX and setting up an extension to forward to your phone. The recipient feels confident they called the real FBI. The attendant thinks they forwarded the call to an extension, but your phone gets the call.
A while back I found myself doing a Laravel project and found it totally adequate and not at all painful, so I don't have the same old flinch reflex whenever someone asks about PHP these days.

That said, nobody will ever convince my that the style of structureless, start-at-the-top, run-to-the-bottom monolithic PHP pages has any merit at all for real apps. I have seen many projects fail, or slowly mire themselves, by creating these monstrosities, with the opening <html> tag 1200 lines down the file. But I assume these days that's not common.

I hope they're going even farther and considering minifloats. 8-bit integers are easy but limiting and unexciting. 8-bit floats are exactly what some machine learning needs.

If you're updating your weights enough, precision can just be wasted computation. A 512-bit-wide computation could be updating 64 very coarse-grained weights at a time.

Then you pick the person on the team most interested in design and get them to learn how to do design right. They become 50-75% design and the rest whatever they were doing before.

Being good at development or some other domain doesn't necessarily correlate with being good at design. Developers understand that their trade takes time and effort to learn, it amazes me that some of them can't understand that it's the same for other domains.

Evidence Based Scheduling, by Joel Spolsky

We at GitLab believe the author did not responsibly disclose this security information in a proper manner, and today we removed the list of hosts in accordance with our terms of service (https://about.gitlab.com/terms/).

The author says that he contacted "about 30 merchants directly", but the published list includes over 1000 merchants. Most merchants were neither informed nor given a chance to respond in a timely manner. We did not feel comfortable hosting information that could be construed as an open invitation for malicious users to exploit.

"although Emmanuelle Loyer makes a case for Lévi-Strauss as a contemporary – and he has been canonized by the Greens – he has come to rest, rather, as a giant figure in the French cultural tradition: a monument to another time."

I refuse to offer a reasonable response to an ad-hominem attack.
There's no direct observation of addition, it's just a symbolic construct to model something we observe. I suppose a reality where such a model never made sense is possible, but it would be a very foreign environment that is completely outside the scope of our intuitive understanding. If it made sense only for a subset of the cases it does in our current understanding, then that would be the context in which it was discovered/understood.
> only because good gets packaged with the bad.

Particularly when the packaging is done without scrutiny. Or waiting for scrutiny until after the fact where it becomes a black or white proposal... past the negotiation stage where details are debated. The public is left to mearly accept or deny it.

Just look at CETA, a particularly harmful clause was dropped only after they were called out for lacking transparency and decided to respond to the public uproar. Even with that minor revision the whole deal is at risk of totally failing because it contains too many controversial sections to pass each EU legislatior. Had they considered and included the public years earlier, rather than focusing just on the vested parties in backroom negotiation, this could have been avoided.

The public shouldnt have to fight tooth and nail be listened to.

If they were capable of making good deals in secret in a way that maintained the public trust then I'd otherwise completely agree with you. Because it's inefficient otherwise. But given the string of policies that came out recently, trust clearly has eroded and these types of deals are a good example of why.
Altman keeps the dialogue focused and Hoffman actually gave candid answers. The two of them together run through the pillars of starting a company (having a hypothesis, testing it, MVP, distribution and strategizing about funding)

My favorite part is Hoffman suggesting to know when to quit or look a reason to stop/quit and pivot or move on. Altman however, presents himself as he is well known for, and as PG has corroborated: tenacious/persistent. Hoffman responds to this with with what he calls "flexible persistence" - when founders have conviction with their own theory/vision but still the ability and willingness to listen to guidance. More specifically he suggests re-evaluating the original hypotheses and proposing slight alterations.

Willem,

GitLab has opted to remove the list of servers that you posted in your snippet. GitLab views the exposure of the vulnerable systems as egregious and will not abide it.
While GiLab reserves the right take further action, up to and including termination (https://about.gitlab.com/terms/), we have chosen not to terminate or lock your account.

Please know this decision was not reached lightly and we appreciate your understanding on the matter.

Not sure exactly. Tinkering, curiosity, free reign to learn new things at a few lucky jobs, guilt at throwing problems "over the wall" to ops people, and the fact that we're all operators sometimes (we all probably run personal servers and local networks) -- these were all a factor for me. I mostly build, but running things is also fun, and building things with a knowledge of what's downstream is the most fun, imo.

Definitely not. Tesla, Solar City are projects that require huge capital, massive risk and a long time to be successful if that means making money in this case. Don't make baseless judgments based on whatever metrics make you classify something as failing.

I need to read up on why the "Indians" tag remained and persisted for centuries considering it must have not taken very long for Christopher Columbus to realize he was not in India after all. Certainly subsequent arrivals from Europe would have known it wasn't India so why did they all keep calling them that.
And even if it were (a list of vulnerable systems, that is), why the fuck do they think that they should censor serious journalism? If you operate a public venue, then it is an important societal role of journalism to report on it if that public venue poses a risk to the public, whether that might also have negative consequences for the people operating it is completely irrelevant.
