"The Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy and Energy Systems Engineering envisions spheres with inner diameters of 30m, placed 700m (or about 2,300 ft) underwater."
I suppose you could start with existing underwater caves, lava tubes, or abandoned mine tunnels. In fact, the tech used to dig the Channel Tunnel could be used to make enormous tunnels for this.
So even ancient archival things like these are Berkeley's responsibility, even when this was not a concern?

I don't have much Data Science job hunting experience, however I have applied to and been hunted by over 100 startups, 24 enterprise companies, and 12 large "startups".

I've had the following:

- 106 Rejections
- 39 Offers
- 24 Refused
- 15 Contemplated
- 5 Taken

Roles Applied for:

- Software Engineer (55rj, 8o, 6r)
- Product Manager (5rj, 6o, 5r)
- Senior Software Engineer (31rj, 23o, 22r)
- Product Lead (0rj, 1o, 1r)
- Senior Product Manager (9rj, 3o, 2r)
- VP of E (2rj, 1o, 1r)
- CTO (0rj, 1o, 0r)

It's been a journey. I don't keep an exact list so this is from looking at my calendar and doing some basic math. This certainly doesn't include all of the role changes within companies.

Things to note:

- People conflate Agile & Scrum a lot.
- Make it easy for people in the room to know what you personally accomplished during your career.
- Make an impression, don't overdo it however.
- Make your descriptions easy to understand.
- Don't just list tech stacks on your resume, list achievements.
- Stay consistent.
- Ask questions.

Also Note:

Regardless how impressive your Github & Stackoverflow accounts might be, you will still be asked to do a stupid code challenge. It irks me. I understand the reasoning for it when you don't have a viable pool of information on the individual, but when you do... It's just disrespectful.

Few places I have been rejected by:

Salesforce, Atlassian, Trello, Twitch, Segment, AirBnB, Twitter, OKCupid, LinkedIn, Shippo, and many many more.

Some places I have been offered by:

Well, yes, you could place ads wherever you wanted. Whether the userbase responds well to your ads is another story.

This seems ripe for becoming an ominous pattern, e.g.:

Not quite the same thing. When you pump water up hill it comes all the way back down the hill, gaining speed as it falls, and then goes through a turbine. In this case, the water is being pumped out of the sphere against the pressure at that depth. When the water is let back in it only travels a short distance but at a high pressure due to the weight of the water above. So you see, the physical systems are actually quite different. In some ways this is more similar to compressing a spring.
One of the biggest advantages, vs. pumping water up hill in to an open basin like a reservoir, is that you don't loose energy due to evaporation.

Indeed. I was hoping that the blog post would conclude with a section describing how they had learned an important lesson and would now be much more strict about dealing with this compiler warning in particular, and indeed compiler warnings in general, but there was nothing like that.

I'm definitely not advocating for unnecessarily complex or long conditionals on a single line or any other hard-to-grok code, but this comment reminded me of something I just learned recently! Someone on my team introduced me to property-based testing, which generates ranges of test cases that would otherwise be very repetitive to write manually. We've used http://hypothesis.works/ in a few places recently and caught bugs that we might have missed if we had just written tests the usual way.

The advantage is having it built out of concrete. But because concrete has compression strength, not so much tensile strength, you need to store negative pressure not positive pressure.

Abstract: We present the Neural Physics Engine (NPE), a framework for learning simulators of intuitive physics that naturally generalize across variable object count and different scene configurations. We propose a factorization of a physical scene into composable object-based representations and a neural network architecture whose compositional structure factorizes object dynamics into pairwise interactions. Like a symbolic physics engine, the NPE is endowed with generic notions of objects and their interactions; realized as a neural network, it can be trained via stochastic gradient descent to adapt to specific object properties and dynamics of different worlds. We evaluate the efficacy of our approach on simple rigid body dynamics in two-dimensional worlds. By comparing to less structured architectures, we show that the NPE's compositional representation of the structure in physical interactions improves its ability to predict movement, generalize across variable object count and different scene configurations, and infer latent properties of objects such as mass.

No air is pumped down. The diagram shows "Strom" going down. In German Strom means energy or in this case electricity. Remember air is quite compressible but water is not.
The F-22 avionics are mostly Ada. F-35 is mostly C++ though. If you want a good face-palm go read up on the "decision-makers" advocating making the switch. I saw a quote by a general blaming the F-22's cost overruns on the "Ada Operating System".

But don't worry, C++ is a "COTS Industry Standard" so you can bet there were no overruns on the F-35. /s
If we assume that the mountain-tank is connected to a pipe of constant diameter, and that water has a constant density, then the speed at the top has to match the speed at the bottom.

Thus, water cannot gain speed on the way down.

The biggest issue I see is that the scientists specify a depth of 700 meters for the 30 meter sphere to hold 20 MWh. No where near Germany the sea is 700 meters deep. You will likely have to go all the way to Norway to find a suitable sea - with all cable losses and maintenance issues with it.
Ah - and that's another thing: how do you maintain a generator on a depth of 700 meters?

The obvious answer is that you grandfather in existing content, and only require accessibility for content created after a certain date. That way, actual courses are accessible, and the roughly 7 billion human beings who don't go to Berkeley can still access the old content.
It certainly was a concern; Berkeley made the decision to ignore it. And yes, access means access for all.
I love arch. Sudo doesn't exist until you install it (directly or indirectly).
I didn't say I considered http and TCP to be part of the same level, I consider parts of them to be part of the same level (e.g. the basic nature of requests, like the GP was talking about)

Full use of xhr needs some (but not complete) understanding of http and TCP because the abstraction isn't a perfect one, nor is it supposed to be.

However, full understanding of HTTP/TCP can be very helpful, even if not necessary.

// b represents a range with values 1,2
var b = 1..<3;

Ah! I wish they had gone for 1..3 and 1>..3 and 1..<3 and 1>..<3 to make it easy to understand. The above would map to [1,2,3], [2,3], [1,2] and [2] respectively.

Range operator quirks with ... and .. have to today be memorized and waste developer seconds that add up to man-years.

The recommendation to immediately transform your options to shares and sell them is the exception rather than the rule. In this context, it is assumed that options are very illiquid.

But in general, if you want to recover as much as you can, you should sell your options directly. That is why the value of an American and a European option tends to be the same.

But do we actually all pay a little more? Was additional funding added along with the requirement to provide captioning?
Eh, worked at one where there was a departmental exodus while the company was expected to IPO within the year (and it did). Plenty of people left due to political reasons or after full vest, exercised their options, and made out well. Anecdotes.
Run these commands for a better demonstration:

vs.

The former times the entire pipeline whereas the later only times the first command in the pipe.
South Africa Is Contemplating the Regulation of Social Media
From what I have been able to gather reading on various sites the courts are fairly strict about the accuracy of closed captions. While YouTube's auto captions are good they don't have a high enough accuracy.

Object Oriented Wrapper of GitHub API, 0.30 Released
Captioning alone was projected to cost a million dollars and that wasn't the only problem. "OOC media content was riddled with accessibility issues including low-color contrast, missing and screen reader accessibility issues"

So even though it's free, somehow they have to take it down and ruin it for everyone.
This seems like a troubling precedent. It is entirely possible that the judgement was correct at the time but what about as technology advances? Are there other examples of prescriptive judgements like this which prevent new technology from being applied?
Because old habits die hard.

Using 'unmanaged' languages for 'performance' reasons is no longer a good reason, because the likes of C# have shown multiple times that there is no reason to choose C++ over C# if you look at performance alone (difference is neglible).
> immigration there is a massive unemployed population (there simply isn't enough work for all the people coming in to the country), and crime rates have gone through the roof.

The situation in South Africa is far more nuanced. Due to a sham government and a badly fractured education system, the immigrants to South Africa are generally more skilled and far more employable than many locals. The immigrants also open shops and are more entrepreneurial. There might be some crime from foreigners, but surely we don't need to go making blanket statements like this. This is the kind of thing said by mob leaders during buildup to xenophobic attacks, which surely you know actually take place in South Africa.

Statements by
cheap hardware (you'll probably want velocity sensitive pads) Teenage Eng Rhythm, Korg KR mini and Volca Beats, the Alesis sr 16/18, Akai makes seemingly dozens of beat makers/sequencer/samplers, others from Arturia, boss, the Roland tr09 recreation, etc.

Also DAW builtins: Ableton live DM's, garage band/Logic Pro drummers, I'm pretty sure FL studio, cubase, bitwig, reaper all have something similar
The available pressure at 700m underwater is considerable. There's no equivalent reservoir of high-pressure fluid on the surface (the atmosphere is at a much lower pressure, obviously).

(The pressure difference in submarines is notably much bigger and more troublesome than the pressure difference spacecraft in a vacuum need to resist.)

So surely it's the high pressure at depth that's the attractive resource here? Pumping a gas into a cavern could offer a positive pressure solution, and I'm pretty sure that's been proposed already.
As far as I understand all vehicles you mentioned are not subject to DO-178 regulation. If they were then C++ code would have been much less likely be used. It is because C++ code is much more difficult to prove correct either using 100% test case coverege (DO-178B) or thru formal methods (DO-178C). Please correct me if I am wrong, I am doing a research on a similar topic.
Which ancient archival things? The description in the article is "legacy content that is 3-10 years old."

Here in Canada heroin is also associated with less violence since its relatively inexpensive from the source so losing a load from India to customs isn't the end of the world to a drug dealer's operation whereas cocaine is traded on large loans, so any loss means violence is the only answer to get the money back.

What's happened the last few years is even cheaper synthetic opioids is available from Chinese factories, and as it's legal there no connections are needed to export it, so mid-tier and lower street gangs here have made their own startups buying and exporting the cheap synthetics (Fentanyl, Carfentanil ect) directly effectively bypassing the traditional pipeline that was bringing in heroin for decades. Naturally this has lead to a ton of violence and overdoses as users get synthetic adulterated heroin instead of their usual dose and gangs fight over control of the much more profitable synthetic trade.

When China and other countries makes the synthetics illegal (China already made it illegal to export to Canada a few weeks ago, not sure about the US) it will go back to being too expensive to self import since petty gangs here will need connections there, and the heroin pipeline will resume again with overdoses falling until of course, another loophole legal synthetic is discovered.
High functioning autistic are not mentally retarded. They are able to function and breed - especially in past society where everyone was expected to marry and stick together forever no matter what.

Can they do something like caption content only as requested instead of preemptively captioning all of it? Is there some time limit on how quickly the content must be made available? Can they caption only the most commonly accessed content up to $x/yr up to whatever Berkeley can afford for accessibility?
The difference is not negligible:

http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64q/compare.php?lan...

Sure, it's silly benchmarks, so I wouldn't take the results as gospel. But the fact is, nobody who writes C# managed to produce a benchmark yet that beats a C++ program.

Fast languages like Rust have managed to at least match the performance of C in some benchmarks (and even beat it in others).

That's obvious but not at all what I responded to in my post.

I responded to the claim that ML courses start with the definition of precision and recall. In my admittedly limited experience those courses start with linear regression and mean squared errors. After that, there is so much generalization possible and that doesn't include precision/recall.

You make money by solving someone's problems, making money by stating definitions is only done on TV quizzes.

The letter from the DoJ is quite threatening, and it demands (literally on the bottom line) that UCB pay restitution to the "aggrieved" (I suppose this refers to the two individuals specifically named as complainants?). No amount is specified, but it seems like a form of extortion: 1) complain to the DoJ about something on the Internet freely available, 2) get a check in the mail (at the expense of California taxpayers, on the other side of the country), 3) profit?

However, it also states this:

> UC Berkeley is not, however, required to take any action that it can demonstrate would result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of its service, program or activity or in undue financial and administrative burdens.

Given the obviously prohibitive costs of transcribing all of these freely shared lectures (including describing all charts, graphs, tables, and other visual aids), it seems clear that UCB should not be required to transcribe all of the videos, nor remove them from public access. This is a travesty of justice.
While I agree with what most posted, also try to analyze your environment. for example, keyboard, mouse vs trackpad, mouse pad, desk space, what's on your desk, dividers vs open office, 1 or 2 monitors, headphones vs earbuds, window vs white walls, slow music vs techno, noise level, personal problems etc. Really investing time in this can definitely create more hours of productivity, and if not, at least your comfortable :) A coworker of mine, brought in a lazy boy from home to the office, but he ends up really productive.

Properly unmanaged code will probably always be faster than managed code. But the point still stands. Code in a managed language, identify the hot spots and inject highly performant unmanaged code there. There is no need to go full C++ for 99.999% of all projects.
