I think it would have less long-term impacts than many would like to thin. Human nature isn't so easily changed, and over time people who don't want to believe in the discovery simply won't. We still have flat-earthers and moon hoaxers, this needn't be any different. Even assuming that people believe it, when faced with the reality of the hard choices to be made in changing our course, how long would it take to rationalize the fear away?

Not long, I suspect, except for the usual people who would have been reasonably concerned before any such discovery.

They were shallow and normalizing, rather than insightful and far from an endorsement.

I work at Spotify on ML. I spent quite sometime working on our production vector model pipelines.

We have three components:

1. Training data: Scalding pipelines (could be any large scale production framework) to preprocess training data and reduce it to a few hundred gigs.

2. Run latent vector models (Matrix factorization, Embedding models etc) to generate item vectors. This stage is designed to be non specific to framework. We use typed avro objects to communicate with the previous stage.

3. Production deployment of models. Essentially glue code that ensures that models are versioned, atomic (user, music vectors are all from the same batch) and deployed into music recommendation and realtime frameworks.

I'm 36 and I have two kids, aged ~5 and ~7. I think it gets easier once they hit middle school but I can account for all my time right now.

9am-10am: wake up
10am - 6pm: work (yup, 40 hours)
6pm - 8pm: shop, cook, feed, put kids to sleep
8pm - 9pm: discipline my kids for not sleeping
9pm - 1am: my time

weekends:
8am - 9am: wife lets me sleep
9am - 8pm: I entertain kids

So I got a few hours a day there. Multitasking is almost impossible because if you don't sink their energy then they create more work for you.

What consumes my free time:
- Running errands
- Exercise (~1hr/day)
- Preparing meals (very basic)
- Cleaning

I also have more doctor appointments than most and such, hopefully temporary. My wife has some issues that makes it hard for her to parent so I work more than others.

Here's how I observe others doing it:
- Cut back on sleep
- Asian mom lives with them
- Hire babysitters
- Really supportive spouse. ie they don't accomplish
- Delegate kids to other activities or let them entertain themselves at home
- Don't exercise. Eat out. Etc.
- Have kids without issues

I think it was the very recognition of this pattern that led so many in Silicon Valley to fear Trump during 2016 far more than the conventional wisdom allowed. The Clinton campaign, piggybacking as it did off of Obama's campaigns, was a textbook example of the innovator's dilemma.

"What McConnell did (attempt to shut down resistance of the opposite party) was wrong-headed and undemocratic, but the only thing it had to do with gender was the use of a pronoun"

If that were true, then why were the several men who spoke after her, and read the exact same letter, not disciplined?
They were more than normalizing. They were suggesting that the single most frightening thing about the Trump administration --- which is not that they're Republicans, but that they're crazy --- is, to the extent it's true, actually an asset.

I worry about digging too far into this because it's just going to generate a political debate. I just want to be clear about why I think this article and Sam's decision about how to participate in it is so alarming.

I am less disturbed by Trump's Republican supporters, at least the level-headed ones. At least they believe what they're saying. I am far more disturbed by someone who claims to be in the opposition but rather than publicly opposing continues to give every sign of being in fact a quiet supporter of the administration. Why should I have to worry that that's true? What was the upside for YC here?

No. One of the resounding refrains after that came out was how much it wasn't the exception.
Trump had rallies daily during his run, sometimes 3 times a day, he met with business leaders big and small constantly. He even started his campaign right after getting elected so he can continue to speak to the people. He runs national surveys to ask the people (his customers) how they like the product (his presidency). Trump moves quickly and has implemented many of his campaign promises within the first few weeks of his term. He runs lean, his healthcare bill is about 1/8th the size of Obamacare. He runs under budget, he has returned a large portion of the funds allotted for his inauguration because he didn't need them. He moves with the wind, shifting his polices to the reality on the ground. He knows that social media is important and spends time engaging in that. If that isn't startup behavior what is?

I'm sorry the truth may put him in a good light on this, but if Sam had lied in his response many people would have lost all trust for him.

Microsoft and Exchange was a great example. Doing things like running big mailboxes, having HA services, and doing discovery were ridiculous hacks until Exchange Online came around and subjected them to the pain.

Similarly, I'm sure Microsoft has plenty of idle servers sitting around doing very little that could easily be running more effectively on ARM.

TL;DR: "The bits of the dark web who's addresses are publicly known and easily discoverable are fewer in number than they used to be".

Hardly a surprising finding. Does not necessarily mean they're "heading for extinction", it could just as plausibly be explained as "they move when their onion addresses land in researcher databases and rely on word-of-mouth between users for findability". It's not like the drug-related bits of the darkweb haven't had many SilkRoad-type warnings to tighten up their opsec. If you're in a researcher's database, you're also most likely in some law enforcement database as well, and should probably not sit in a public library with your laptop unlocked chatting with undercover cops...

His point isn't very compelling for the following reason: instead of taking my argument ("Wikileaks publishes on far more than the US") he took an anecdote decorating my argument ("for example Turkey") and tried to argue the anecdote (poorly).

I'll give him an upvote. Not because I think his argument is really good. But because he contributes to the conversation.

It's probably more likely that they want each output to be independent of the other. Certain features may be predominantly associated with a tiger, but not necessarily indicative of a terrestrial animal. If the 9.89% chance that they could have been wrong would have been the case, then that should not influence whether or not it was a terrestrial animal. In my opinion, the consumer of the output values should be able to rely on these fields independently, and make these associations themselves. Although I totally agree a second pass could be useful as a separate data set.
How do you know they didn't do as good of work? You and I both know that objectively judging "quality of work" in this industry is extremely difficult, and more often it just comes down to someone's biased opinion.
Refusing to take Trump seriously and treating him as a joke is how he got elected in the first place. Trump is a masterful demagogue whose innovations will be studied in political science for decades to come. He is also a profoundly evil, shallow, and narcissistic man who is in no way capable or qualified of holding the level of responsibility he has attained. But he's far from the first malignant narcissist to master the arts of demagoguery.

Shouldn't we give Altman points for being honest about one of Silicon Valley's core mentalities? In any case, quotes are chosen by the reporter. Sam may have followed up "The Silicon Valley President in every way except the ideology is flipped" with an hour-long dissertation about how SV's mentality is not at all applicable to the federal government, and how it comes to bite even the hottest SV stars that don't mature, etc., we don't know, and Altman doesn't know how he will be excerpted.

As for Altman agreeing to even be interviewed: it's clear that he's passionate about civic affairs and is willing to speak out despite possible risk to reputation.
You're extrapolating from Wikileaks hyping itself in a tweet and calling the result "most likely".

Criticising Trump on HN is like criticizing US imperialism in China or criticizing Israeli settlements in Iran. It is a safe subject. Everybody agrees with you, including those who pays the people in jackboots. Obviously nobody will kick your door in.

What happens to people with the unpopular opinions? Well, Berkeley.
Actually, there are plenty of fields of private enterprise that have the same risk, though sometimes government has regulatory structures designed to (whether or not they work effectively in the face of unexpected strategies) mitigate those risks.

One thing the article does not mention is Chouinard's 1% For The Planet association (member companies pledge to donate 1% of gross annual sales to specific environmental organizations). Chouinard's approach to environmental lobbying and nonprofits is very outcome focused. If you run a business I recommend joining 1% For The Planet: https://www.onepercentfortheplanet.org/

A lot of details on environmentalism are described in Chouinard's Let My People Go Surfing, which I highly recommend reading. It is a great book about quality, technology, supply chain, and ethics in business.
So yet another thing Wikileaks (Assange) wants us to take their (his) word for.
I'm sure Altman said dozens of mitigating things that were not included in the story, just as I'm sure that Altman knows how reporters work. Did he think the things he had to say about the Trump administration were so interesting and important that the risk of giving what is effectively an endorsement was worth it?

> but hypothetically this is the kind of thing that could have an impact

It's not hypothetical :) We've measured, and moving to 64bits is a serious issue and would directly affect many customers who could not take the RAM hit.

> But I also "know", and you also maybe secretly "know", that you will eventually move to 64-bits

At some point we probably will. but it certainly isn't now. We have ample information on the types of machines that people use for development and we've measured extensively the different approaches that are possible. Right now 64bits would be a bad decision, and going the multi-process route turned out to be quite good.

> I mean come on, even iPhone programs are 64-bits now.

That's not a reason to move. We should move to 64bits if it delivers a quality improvement and does not dramatically degrade the experience for many customers. That's not what would be the case today.

> There seems to be some people in the IDE team who believe that a 32-bits only IDE is a feature and not a bug, including for reasons as fun as because it crashes sooner in case of memory leaks...

To be clear. There are zero people on the IDE that think this. The IDE team has to deal with the reality of the situation that there are humongous solutions, and very resource constrained machines. And we've been hearing from huge numbers of developers that they absolutely do not want memory requirements to go up. Just moving to 64bits is extremely problematic. As i've already mentioned that can easily double the memory requirements for many components in VS. That's going to make VS2017 a complete non-starter for many customers.

We do not haphazardly make changes "just because". We measure measure measure, and we're loathe to do anything that we've got enormous real data on on how negative the impact could be.

The approach we've taken has actually extremely improved throughput, scaling and latency, all while actually decreasing memory usage. We're going to continue making the changes that support those goals. If/when we can have a 64 bit architecture that supports those same needs, and gives an acceptable impact on the vast majority of user machines, then we can move there.

Maybe you need a YouTube video detailing the experience, as it obviously isn't quite as good on mobile Chrome (no sound, I only realised from the comments here; also awkward to control accurately).

A video would also give people a sense of what the environment/process looked like before they hand over details - I'm happy to trade my details for a good experience once I know it's likely to be a good experience, less so when I'm not confident, it becomes a bit chicken and egg...

So where exactly does pandering to racists, fear mongering against the "other", and demonizing the powerless, feature in the SV analogy? Is that "disregarding the rules"? Rules meaning, being civil, ethical and sane. I suppose under a certain Machiavellian light, slavery could also be considered as "disregarding the rules".

Maybe SV should start adopting political tactics too. Robocalls that ask you how you would feel if you knew that Google employees were "perhaps" looking at your teenage daughters pictures. Demonize php developers while lying to win32 developers about bringing their jobs back, etc.. :)
