As someone who recently was job hunting and come across another site with this problem: absolutely do this. You get the bonus of instantly showing the user which jobs are current, so they don't notice only after wasting time and then jump to the assumption the site is dead. You show users that you take the up-to-dateness of the data seriously. And lastly you get to keep the archive around, which I agree with you is a good thing to do.

> There's plenty of recent jobs listed, so your point about "only ever seeing jobs that no longer accept applications" is moot.

Not for me there's not. I'm in the UK and it's all 2 years old.

Not immediately. Businesses that have these immense goals are about research, discovery and innovation in smaller elements of something. It's an incremental process with additional investment along the way, each step going a bit further to proving your team can do what you've set out to do, until eventually you have the whole product.

so did Kevin Kelly, in "The Inevitable". He stretches the electrical metaphor for about a chapter.

"The AI on the horizon looks more like Amazon Web Services — ... This common utility will serve you as much IQ as you want but no more than you need. You’ll simply plug into the grid and get AI as if it was electricity. It will enliven objects, much as electricity did more than a century past."

Tablet sales are lagging in America because manufacturers are not innovating. One of the top rated Android tablets today is the Nvidia Shield K1. It's a great tablet. It costs $200. You can use it to stream a very playable PC gaming experience via GeForce Now provided you have a solid 20 mbps connection. You can connect it to your television and use it as a console. It's 3 years old and still pretty rock-and-roll weighed for it's entertainment value. Its display is easily cast to a television or monitor for anyone that needs to use it for a workspace via Google apps. And there isn't even anything on the American market that offers serious competition.

Sure, there's the Google Pixel C. It's got a top notch Tegra X1, but it hobbled itself by not including an SD card slot. Google Drive is nice, but I don't want to be beholden to Google for my files. And the Switch looks gimmicky (and sub-par).

So this far there's really no reason to move beyond the Nvidia Shield. At least not on the American Market.

Then Asian market is doing much better. They're cranking out some quality spec Core M tablets for $200 to $300. If American tablet sellers would get in on the trend, we might see a decent uptick in sales.

The same thing applies for Android tablets, however I find Android tablets to be slightly more developer friendly

But Android tablets are also awful. Although I am primarily an Apple user and my wife uses an iPad, we bought an higher-end ASUS tablet based on Atom for me and our daughter (to watch cartoons on long car trips). The tablet came bloated with all kinds of nonsense apps, of which more than half cannot be removed or disabled. Android updates stopped after a year or so. It had an SD card slot, but it could only be used for a small subset of applications.

The Nexus 7 2013 that we owned was better in the lack of crapware department. But the last Android update was in 2015 (6.0.1).

After some iPads and the Nexus 7/ASUS adventures, I decided to stop using tablets completely. Laptops have become so light and compact that it's easy to take them to meetings (especially the MacBook 12" is great in this regard). As a bonus, I can just store my notes, etc. in plain text (org mode) in git, rather than being locked in some cloud silo.

> AAudio API for Pro Audio: AAudio is a new native API that's designed specifically for apps that require high-performance, low-latency audio.

It's always seemed so weird to me how terrible audio latency is... not just on android, but also on consoles (guitar hero, rockband etc), where it makes them utterly unplayable as instruments - I'm thinking mainly of the drumkits here.

Yes, iPhone is better than android, but it's still not workable as an instrument.

OTOH fully electronic digital instruments have been mainstream for decades. Is it because we are somehow able to accept terrible visual latency in games (recently exacerbated by network latency)? And so our systems get optimized for throughput performance (resolution, fps etc) at the cost of latency? Though the latency problem rears its ugly head again in VR. Seems to need to be sub 10-15ms, end-to-end (from human input to output), for both VR visual and audio.

Anyway, I think better audio latency requires a redesign of the entire system, and it's not clear than this new API has that support behind it.

The fundamental techniques of machine learning will always be there. For that reason, Ng's ML course will always be the prime entry point for people new to ML. As someone who has taken both the Ng course and has roughly watched the videos of the fast ai course and done some work, I would recommend first doing the Ng course. Things will be much more calm if you then approach the fast ai DL course. The fast ai course is amazing and hats off to Jeremy and Rachel for the great work. But without any idea of machine learning, I would say you will need to put at least 20 hours of work each week to work through it, and that is if you are also a really proficient programmer.
Here's what I wrote in a comment here last year about the Bostrom simulation argument specifically:

The simulation argument, going back to Bostrom, relies on two flaws.

1) It leverages our optimism to corrupt our understanding of statistics and logic. It essentially says that if you think humanity doesn't destroy itself, then our descendants will probably try to simulate us. But of course if you just take a statistical view of the potential future ordered states of the universe, there are FAR more potential future states in which we don't exist, than states in which we do. The chances we are living in a simulation now are equally as small.

2) Bostrom hypothesizes that our descendants will try to simulate us. But it is impossible to completely simulate a system from inside that system--that's basic thermodynamics. So simulation proponents argue that our simulated reality is running in a more complex universe than we experience. But if that is the case, then the beings running the simulation are not our descendants! They're the descendants of whatever more complex beings came before them. Once again the central logic of the argument fails.
Like school grades, competitive sports, policemen, and war, race is an idea that only serves to divide us. I want to see humanity reach its true potential, and not be endlessly mucking about over rank and status (or ownership of resources).

I've struggled to stop identifying as white, and to not think "black" when I see a black person. But I was raised in the white supremacist society that is the united states, and the programming/brainwashing runs deep.

Nope.

And typing 12 characters from muscle memory is faster than learning and typing "limbdumaslaterjuramondohalf", which is what diceware^6 just gave me.

The supposed mnemonic value of diceware is illusory. If it convinces people to use stronger passwords and it works for you, great.
Consider the possibility that your factory is manufacturing your product for their own account. This is a common problem where I live. Unauthorized, nighttime manufacturing runs are often the source of these problems.
I had thought about this idea and came to the conclusion that if the full universe simulation is ever possible, it is highly likely that we are living in one right now.

And the only way to prove it is possible, is to attempt to simulate one.

Swagger, OpenAPI, RAML, JSON Hyperschemas, toml/yaml/json ...

I don't see how proliferation of ad-hoc syntax contributes to interoperability, which surely should be the goal of an API spec?

My take is that JSON has "won" over XML as RPC or REST serialization format because browsers support it OOTB and there's no schema needed. It simply is the way of least resistance. And since a browser front end is traditionally tied to a web backend anyway, there's no need for a formal "API" (protocol spec, actually) spec as an external artifact most of the time.

Once you try and impose typing on JSON, this very benefit turns against you, and is getting absurd IMHO. Every JSON typing regime needs to work around the fact that JavaScript isn't statically typed. Consider JSON Schema: it is reminiscent of a markup schema of sorts, when a more rational approach would IMO be to represent JSON payloads as an RPC/IDL function signature-style schema.

He also mythologises his example: making a video game is a moment of inspiration. No slog, no rewrites, no iteration. Just 'inventions'.

The majority of users never spend $400~600 on a new phone.

Most of people are on pre-pay and not everyone can afford those prices.

Here in this side of the planet, you get KitKat devices around 50 €, then Lollipop start selling around 100 €.

For Marshmallow, usually the prices start at 200 € and most devices are only available on a few shops or online.

As for Nougat, I am yet to see any shop selling them.

So no, most people that just want a phone, any Android phone, will get one of those KitKat/Lollipop devices with their pre-paid card.

Well, look on the bright side: once we eliminate the boring old memory safety bugs, and the XSS, and the SQL injection, the exploits that remain will at least be interesting.
Let's say that for a given set of physical laws, you get some "computational power" P, which characterizes how hard it is do to computation using those laws. You could imagine a universe with lower P than ours, where light was much slower, or the only workable transistor had a switching time on the order of seconds.

Given a universe with computational power P, you can simulate a "universe" of something like P * 10^-100. For example, a Minecraft world is a universe with different physical laws, in which you could perform even slower and worse simulations, and you can make "turtles all the way down" at lower and lower P.

The claim that our universe is not simulated, then, is nearly equal to the claim that the physical laws we have is the absolute highest P that could ever exist. Since we know we can simulate universes of much lower P than ours, we ought to have very good reason to assert that there is no universe of much higher P than ours. Given a finite speed of light in our universe, yet nonlocal effects (Bell inequalities) which appear to take instantaneous effect, we could perhaps fathom a universe of higher P created by having a method of communication which occurred instantaneously. Add to this more dimensions in time and space, etc... literally nothing is off the table for a "smarter" universe to be conceived of, because the containing universe's physical laws need bear no resemblance to our own.

Barring a literal divine intervention, though, it's all completely unfalsifiable, but I think it's more nuanced than "God did it".
> But it is impossible to completely simulate a system from inside that system--that's basic thermodynamics

I haven't heard quite that argument before. Couldn't it just be simulated slower than real-time? Or is memory the issue?
Even with a phonetic alphabet, you can still run into issues. Some people are just surprised when they hear it. "P for Papa" / "was that P as in Patrick?" Sigh... I'm seriously considering changing my surname to something that's trivial to understand in English.
There's nothing at all wrong with this.

I'd say 99.999% of the time someone runs an installer script to install something, they don't read it first. And if you're not reading the script first, then there's no benefit whatsoever to downloading it prior to executing, as opposed to just executing directly. The only reason to say "don't pipe into sh" is if you're saying "review the installer script 100% of the time before executing it", which, honestly, is advice nobody's going to follow.
You're right, I misremembered the number of rolls for diceware. I guess your passwords have an extra bit over mine. How many 12+ character passwords are you able to memorize? How long does it take you to learn a new/changed one?
I'm not arguing either side; I don't know enough to decide either way. I'm just pointing out a specious argument.

What I can say is within this thread that both sides have spewed either enough propaganda or perhaps truth or perhaps their truth or maybe alternate truth, see my point is, there is enough confusion in all this bickering that I'll never trust Bitcoin again.
I think point 2 is often handled by assuming everything that happens outside of our solar system (or wherever you choose to draw the line) is 'faked' in such a way that we couldn't tell.
Why do I need to convince you I experience qualia?

You're welcome to propose models that omit it, but they'll fail basic logic to me: they fail to explain the only experiment Im absolutely sure of the results of and which is continually running while I'm existing. Im less sure gravity exists than that qualia does for me.

It's entirely possible no one else does, or that they experience a different qualia. It's also not possible to prove that you do to others.

I see no point in trying to convince non-qualia-experiencing entities that I experience it, because they fundamentally don't have experiences and I don't think it's possible to bridge that gap.
Regarding you second point - you don't need to simulate the Universe at 1:1 scale to reliably replicate the past states of a certain region. For example, Earth itself can be simulated at full resolution only within a thin shell centered on it's surface, say +/-10 km from geoid. There are no observers at the core, so a simplified model would do, as long as plate tectonics is reproduced accurately enough.

I also had a friend raising grass fed organic beef. This was about 10 years ago when I was still in Canada, but I seem to remember that his prices were fairly comparable to the supermarket. Cheaper than a high end butcher anyway. He had a series of setbacks (a serial arsonist burnt down his barn, mad cow disease restricted his access to slaughter houses, foot and mouth disease in the area, etc...) In the end he had to cut down his herd fairly dramatically and he ended up doing a lot of vegetable farming to fill the gap. Not sure how he's doing now, but at the time there was a crazy waiting list to get his beef. And it was spectacular. I'm pretty sure he was going to try to build his herd back up, but then he was also pretty upset by all of the problems he had. The relative simplicity of high end organic veggies was growing on him.

Can I asked something? Why are iPads popular? Genuine question. I will admit first that I also use an old iPad for watching YouTube, but that's because I run Linux on my surface pro 3, and YouTube sucks my battery dry faster than you can say sudo.

But, the iPad is still too heavy to hold for extended periods, falls over all the time on its rubbish case if I keep it on the uneven bed, and I find the surface kickstand does the job much better. Or just a normal laptop. Even for playing music when I cook, laptops somehow have less friction.
