Depends on the venue you publish in. One side effect of getting rid of peer reviews is that you need another indicator if a paper is worth reading, most of the time that's going to be author reputation. This means it's difficult for work from lesser known authors to get noticed (similarly to what happened here).
Those are some great coworkers to work alongside. I know both by reputation alone. Levels obviously for all his awesome work in the digital nomad scene and Oskar because of his work on spaced repetition for learning coding languages.
Another fun detail about the hardware: deterministic random generators with relatively small state. The German computer magazine c't ran a competition for writing Asteroids AIs in 2008, here is the winning entry playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZHZd0iN8MM

Note how it shoots at asteroids that haven't spawned yet, e.g. at 10s, or lines up perfects shots on the splitters of an asteroid at ~28s, before the large one is actually hit.

Each time something random happens at the beginning of the game, it narrows down the internal state of the PRNG, and quickly can perfectly predict the game.

A bug is the log checking code is no worse than a bug in your signature verification code. But obviously, denial-of-update attacks on the log infrastructure should be mitigated in some way before this is mandatory.

I think it's more the principle of the thing. Why would you want to be tagged and tracked like an animal? I wouldn't want to be.

I agree with Edward Snowden: "When you say I don’t care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide, that is no different than saying I don’t care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say or freedom of the press because I have nothing to write."

Dear guy running this campaign: you might want to check that what you are doing is actually possible before you continue this.

I am quite certain that it isn't, and you are going to end up with a large amount of money, and nothing to give people in exchange for it.

This might actually be looked at as fraud, especially when there are as many people telling you that what you are trying to do is impossible as there are.

I think the point you are trying to make here is valid (internet privacy is important), but I don't think this is a good way to make that point. People are going to be upset when you explain to them that there is no way to accomplish what you are claiming here.

I'm working on an open source project that may be it could be interesting for someone.

The project is a cli tool to upload files through rsync.
The main point is the api. You define a json file for each project you are working on and then you are able to upload from cli.
> Why would you want to be tagged and tracked like an animal? I wouldn't want to be.

If that's how you think I should look at it, then, actually, yeah, I do. I have a huge problem with the way some animals are tagged and tracked, so if this bears any resemblance to it, it's only fair we go through it too. Not that it actually does, though.
The number of US citizens that pay federal income tax is closer to 35%. All forms of income tax ought be abolished. A consumption tax of around 18% would provide the same federal revenue. It would simplify tax reporting (i.e. reduce expenditures on tax reporting), and increase the tax base (people living on trust funds would pay in at a higher rater). Look into the "Fair Tax" for a well reasoned proposal for such a tax.
And I really wish people wouldn't start this argument when it's clear what was meant from context. We can't all get our wishes. :)

Advertising of consumer goods certaintly did exist in USSR planned economy, but it was very different style of advertising. It didn't have advertising as a tool for brands to compete between themselves, but simply as a tool to communicate about a brand/product.

Companies had ads in various mass media that (a) advertised new products that had been issued; (b) advertised features & proper usage of products (including nudging towards desired behavior) (c) advertised the new styles/designs issued for e.g. clothing. Illustrative product catalogues were a thing. It's a quite different sort of advertising, more like public information and sometimes a bit towards propaganda, but it certainly is advertising.

Also, quite a bit of "traditional" advertising material was made in USSR for export markets.
Most clients nowadays sent the "server name indication" (SNI) TLS extension though, which contains the name of the site you are connecting to.

The extension is sent unencrypted, even when using TLS 1.3. So everyone sniffing the traffic can tell where you are surfing to, even without DNS.

You've got a huge problem with the way animals are tagged and tracked, but then conclude that people should also be tagged and tracked? That doesn't make any sense. If you've got a problem with it, why aren't you arguing for no tagging and tracking of animals and people?
Bitcode does not allow cross-architectural builds. This is a common misconception. IR (& bitcode) includes architecture and platform-specific ABI.

I don't think the suggestion is that she can change the future in the movie.

My interpretation of the phone call is that it demonstrates the reverse causality that is now possible thanks to her new understanding. It doesn't mean the cause nor the effect are mutable, just that they are now accessible in a different order than is typical.

I think in the movie the decision to have the child is also immutable. So when in the final scene she commits to that path - it is because of the paradoxical freedom born of fatalism that she manages to be cheerful. There is literally no other way things could go - so why worry?

If she's selfish - she's deterministically, immutably selfish. Under the new model - the concept of a "change" to the future through action is incomprehensible. The future just "is".
> "This statement, however, is obviously untrue since, if one cares to move one's eyes slightly down the page at the Tax Policy Center web site, one will find that 73.1 percent of all tax units (in 2015) do pay either federal income taxes or federal payroll taxes. In other words, plenty of people who don't pay the "income tax" pay taxes on income via the payroll tax. That income tax is assessed at a flat and regressive rate of more than 15 percent, once both worker and employer shares are included. (The employer share negatively impacts the employees' wages, of course.) In 2014, payroll taxes combined for a total of 34 percent of all federal revenues in 2014, or one trillion dollars. (Those who don't get a paycheck pay the aptly-named "self-employment tax" in its place.)"

I see your point, but I would suggest that human history is full of opportunities to have bemoaned that "There is no evidence we can build X" shortly before someone went and built the first X.

Even absent a general AI in the near future, the rapid increases in automation from ML and weak AI that we're already seeing don't look to reduce in pace or sophistication.
Unfortunately "starving the beast" doesn't seem to actually work. Low tax revenues don't lead to lower spending, just fiscal indiscipline.

I'm not making a moral point. And it's not an opinion, nothing in my explanation is outside of trivially observed reality.

I'm just trying to dispel the idea that capitalism (as we experience it, or otherwise) isn't maintained through violence. It very well is more pleasant for most people than feudalism, but they both perpetuate themselves through violence.

I don't think you understand how Apple works. They love to promote proprietary software in their "walled garden".

Apple's concern was that f.lux changes the color of the screen outside the app, and that fact alone goes directly against Apple's philosophy of keeping apps in their own respective sandboxes. Only Apple is allowed to change UI outside of an app. Consistency at all costs.

Income tax is not payroll tax!

Income tax -> Federal income tax (discretionary spending)

Payroll tax -> Social security and Medicare (non-discretionary spending)

Everyone pays into entitlements via payroll tax. Not everyone pays into discretionary spending (everything except social security and medicare).
So if I kill you and take your house, and somehow escape justice before dying myself and passing said house to my son, your son forfeits any claim to the house? Correct?
Correct, Montréal is already way way ahead of Toronto on the AI front. Google and Microsoft already invested heavily into Montréal. M$ donated 7 million to UdeM and McGill as well.
App thinning is orthogonal to ENABLE_BITCODE. The App Store could have been thinning app binaries years ago (literally just `lipo -thin`). Apple likely wanted ENABLE_BITCODE for better app store verification and perhaps architecture re-targeting in the future. I very much doubt the latter because Apple seems to have no compunctions about forcing developers to use newer SDKs, rebuilding apps for WatchOS or tvOS, or aggressively deprecating 32-bit only apps in the App Store.
You'll still lose native Canadians.

Yup, HN made me switch like a month ago, but I may need to look for something else. E-mail reliability is too important to me. From the message[1] it seems that their mail servers are also down, and the tweet[2] suggests that it was all in the single DC.

Right, but what advantage does DNSCrypt have over a local DNSSEC aware resolver? If you can't trust the local resolver you have more serious problems than DNS.
I would imagine that with enough engineering effort, a cross-architecture "porting" of IR would be feasible. I doubt Apple will bother to do that when they can just force developers to rebuild and republish lest they get left out of the App Store.
(Shrug) We've been hauling not only fissionable materials, but entire working reactors around the oceans for decades with an excellent safety record. So far no one has tried to steal fissionable materials from the US Navy, but I suppose anything is possible in a world going crazier by the day.

The costs of creating and staffing a secure storage facility would not be trivial, but then, nothing else about energy production is.

The main concern with facilities like WIPP isn't so much security against dedicated assaults, but keeping future subliterate humans from stumbling across the material for the next 10,000 years or so. Antarctica solves that problem nicely. No one who isn't equipped to deal with hazardous technology is ever going to visit Antarctica.

House prices are skyrocketing but condos are still pretty cheap. There just isn't any more space for actual houses in the city so the ones that are there are extra valuable.

You can still find tons of 1+1 units in the city for under $2000/month which is the same as it was 3-4 years ago.
First I didn't say "lower mid" ... I said "middle"... you are miss-categorizing what I said. It's a minor difference but the fact you changed the facts of the discussion in a direction that makes me look more extreme is very telling. Not only did you twist what I said but you even quoted it as if it is a citation.

Second one of my other posts talk about how we've had great luck bringing on and mentoring juniors and they have been successful. I have hired people who literally dropped out of school freshman year. Again, you're either not reading or not listening.

I think you may be projecting your pre-conceived image of who I am and I don't think I can convince you otherwise.

I also think the fact I have almost 1700 on my throw away account and you have -1 on your year old account is very telling. I shouldn't have even engaged. I'm done now.
I don't know if you're wrong, but you're certainly not alone. If you read history, or you're old enough, you'll know that we've already had at least two AI winters (mid 70s to early 80s and early 90s to early 00s), depending on how you count them, and the hype around machine learning is almost word-for-word the same as the hype around expert systems was last time around. This bubble is ripe for bursting.
You make a point: Of course, my house here in NYS is drawing 240 V from the electric utility. So, IIRC the 100 A of the main breaker is for 100 A at the 240 V, not just the 120 V. So, just have an electrician run a 240 V line from the breaker box to the garage for the car, say, the same way as there is a 240 V line to the kitchen electic stove and the electric clothes dryer.

But, the 100 KWh is 123 HP for an hour or 61 HP for 2 hours or 30 HP for 4 hours. That's not a lota juice.

Apparently gasoline, burned, releases

33.4 KWH

So, the Tesla battery has the energy of burning 3 gallons of gasoline.

If a gasoline powered car is 33% efficient, then the 100 KWH of a Tesla is about like a 10 gallon tank of gasoline.

Hmm -- my old Chevy S-10 Blazer has a
20 gallon tank for gasoline, and
I can fill it in a few minutes.

But if only want to zip, the fantastic
acceleration, around Manhattan a little
during the week and take
a 2 hour round trip to the Hamptons
on weekends, then it appears that
a Tesla will work!

IIRC, the time I used my Firebird to
blast overnight from my place in
Maryland to my fiance in Indiana,
the whole trip was about 9 hours.
At the speeds I was driving, I
might have been using 100
HP. So, the Tesla battery might
have lasted a little over an hour.
On that trip, even with gasoline,
I had to stop a few times.
A Tesla would have been a
bummer, make me late to
get to my fiance,
in particular,
truncate my manhood -- OUCH!

Car was a Firebird 400 4 speed with,
sadly, a 3.23 rear axle ratio. The first
gear was 2.52, and fourth was 1.0.
Bummer. Now, wisely, much wider
ratios are common and more
gears, e.g., in the Corvette
automatic 8 gears. So, can
try to compete with a Tesla
for standing start acceleration
but on a highway in one of the
higher gears cruise along
at maybe 1200 RPM and get
maybe 28 MPG. Gasoline
powered cars have been
improving, too!

It just hit me: Maybe a Tesla
is using the electric motors
also for braking and, then,
also charging the battery!
Nice.

Trains and big boats commonly
have a Diesel engine driving
a generator and the generator
driving electric motors --
"Look, Ma, no or a perfect
transmission!". Could also
have a battery in there!
Use the battery around town,
and charge the battery with the
engine.

Most people here are comparing Toronto to San Fransisco, not any reasonable location.

Let's do some numbers. According to glassdoor an average salary for a software engineer in San Fransisco is 110k USD. A single bedroom apartment in SF goes for 3500/mo on average.

In Toronto, according to payscale the average software developer job is 65k CAD, though let's also consider 80k because it's not hard to get that at a decent place if you have several years of experience. A single bedroom apartment right in downtown can be had for 1,600/mo CAD. Assuming you are living where you work and not doing something like living in Toronto earning a US salary, your buying power with left over money is likely to be similar.

SF, after taxes (21%) gives you 86,900. Taking out rent, you are left with 44,900. Toronto at 65k is taxes about 25%, so you are left with 48,601 and after rent you have 29,401. But, if you get 80k, then you are taxes 26% and after rent get 39,461 left over which starts looking a lot more comparable.
That's intriguing!
You mean, you're saving $50k/year, minus what you spend on fun. And yeah, congrats! That's quite a bit better than most people.

I wouldn't say reading lots of code is necessary. Reading some code can definitely be beneficial though. If you've just moved to an existing code base, it would be helpful to familiarize yourself with the existing structure, idioms, and patterns. If you're working on something new but don't know how to approach the task, looking at code solving a similar problem or using a similar methodology can help. As with most advice, take it within reason. Don't go to the extreme.
Because they are literally dirt-poor and their labour time is worth less than the fuel required to transport machine-woven cloth to them.

I think you are much more likely to get stuck in a local minima if you don't get good at reading code.

-It lets you work effectively as part of a larger team or project

-Gives you a much larger surface area of material to learn from: you can learn new patterns and libraries by seeing how other people use them instead of having to find documentation or tutorials

-Sometimes there are bugs in libraries (open source or otherwise) that you depend on. You will find these much quicker if you are good at reading code.
It's also true of wheelchairs.

My wife and I helped a man in a wheelchair up some stairs in Brooklyn, since his alternative was taking the train about five stops down to an elevator-equipped station, then getting on a bus, and coming right back. At that time of night, we optimistically estimated an hour for him to do so... or about 60 seconds for us to carry him up.

Put another way, a CNAME literally says the answer for any record type for thing1. is found by querying its canonical name, thing2. They're most comparable to symlinks. There is no data for this label; ask over there in that label. (This is why you can't CNAME the top of a zone, because you need SOA and NS there and CNAME can't coexist with other types. It wouldn't make sense.)

In most DNS stacks when an application asks for thing1. the usual way (something like gethostbyname), the resolver side will quietly follow a CNAME answer and resolve thing2. without telling the application anything happened. It's not part of the usual APIs, but that's not to say applications can't find out if desired. Same story with symlinks, where one uses a different API to read the link instead of the target. So for the browser case mentioned, a naive resolver wouldn't even be aware of the CNAME, hence the CN not changing for TLS purposes and the address bar staying the same. No modern browser has a naive resolver, just saying.

People trip up on this a lot, just clarifying.
The technicians get very little of that $50K.
