This makes sense if you're going to try to get a big payday early in your career - trying to build a unicorn startup in SV and cash out by 30. That sort of makes sense to me. But maximizing earnings by working 60+ hour weeks so you can retire at 55 instead of 65? That's a pretty high cost for not a lot of reward, as far as I can see.

The important bit of the article is the quote at the end, which I will quote in full:

> Most of the money is still made without tracking people by showing you ads based on your keyword, i.e. type in car and get a car ad. These ads are lucrative because people have buying intent. All that tracking is for the rest of the Internet without this search intent, and that's why you're tracked across the Internet with those same ads.

They don't link to their source, but a simple search solved that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10346440

> being a polymath could be "democratized"

I'd see the optimum as the opposite type of "democratization": replacing most narrow experts with smarter and smarter AI/ML systems (that will sooner or later surpass human-level specialist knowledge in most areas), and have like 90% of human beings educated to be integrators/"polymaths"/expert-generalists instead! That would make 1000x more sense!

And of course, humans can be augmented with higher bandwith interfaces when these becomes available, then have their minds uploaded and become "software", when that becomes possible etc. The general idea is that human-pattern minds (whether human or future human-like ones) are one of the best type of minds for integrating/generalizing/being-polymaths etc.!

Imho our whole educational systems are 100% wrong for focusing on training narrow-experts and not of a mix of mostly integrators and "T-shaped people" instead! It's like we're training fishes to climb trees! Human brains are inherently bad at focusing and specializing by nature of how evolution built their freakin hardware even.
Rephrasing: KP's environment certainly seemed hostile. But maybe she was marginalized there not due to sexual harassment, but because she wasn't a top performer.

This is an interesting point. The near future must look far more vivid to the current crop of SF writers than it did to Aldiss's generation, and no wonder since VR, social media, and robotics are so much more advanced. Even Non-Stop, which took place in one relatively short narrative timeframe, I'd put further into the future than, say The Martian or any Stephenson novel... would be intensely curious to know of modern SF that ponders far-future questions.

Defending the right to free speech for everyone is not the same as defending white supremacists, so it sounds like you are the one conflating two concepts.
That's only a move you pull on some tiny 2-man firm or an understaffed public defender. There's absolutely no reason at all to imagine that strategy was relevant to anyone KP would employ.
There are lots of "AI methods" that can be used to produce deterministic results. In general, this sounds like a problem where combinatorial optimization techniques can be useful. For example, constraint programming, mixed integer programming, and various local search methods. For all techniques, there are both deterministic and non-deterministic approaches.

Interesting article--I'd love to see one just on GC.

I just downloaded the latest node.js sources and v8 still has a call to CollectAllAvailableGarbage in a loop of 2-7 passes. It does this if a much cheaper mark-and-sweep fails. Under production loads, that would occasionally happen. This led to pause-the-world-gc of 3600+ms with v8, which was terrible for our p99 latency.

The fix still feels weird -- we just commented out the fallback strategy and saw much tighter response time variance with no increased memory footprint (RSS).

I never submitted a patch though because although it was successful for our workload, I wasn't sure it was generally appropriate (exposed as a runtime flag) and I left the job before I could do a better job of running it all down.
No idea what all was on his blog and other google accounts, but according to the article they were used for his work at the university. Also some credible sites like the NYT linking into the disabled blog: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/19/business/the-stock-market...

Google may have had some good reasons or it may have just been an example of ML discriminating against a name like Salil. Either way, it's very disturbing how Google shuts down accounts without warning or a reasonable resolution process. They did this to a Canadian psychology professor earlier this month (and then silently restored access after Joe Rogan picked up the story).

I'm extremely loathe to wean myself off of Google's products, especially Gmail. But I can no longer really see it as a safe place to have verifications of all my other accounts sent with all the risks of automated flagging, technical error (which cost me my pre acquisition YouTube account when they forced everyone onto Plus), and their increasingly aggressive security / account recovery mechanisms that ask for information such as the exact month a decade old account was created.

I know most people on this aren't a fan of the subreddit /r/The_Donald, but there is a tremendous push on that sub for people to use alternatives to major tech giants.

Google, Facebook, and Amazon (due to the connection with Washington Post) are vilified, and multiple posts reach the top each week outlining alternatives - Duckduckgo is a major one, firefox/brave are suggested browsers, and in general people on that sub talk about completely disconnecting from facebook, or minimizing use to messenger only.

I can see a pretty sizeable opportunity for platforms to come out that are truly tolerant of all speech/perspectives. I'm not criticizing, nor expressing favor towards, any of the services I've mentioned, but it seems like someone could make a solid earning in a lifestyle company aimed at servicing individuals who want privacy and uninhibited freedom of speech.

For reference, T_D is in the top 125 of subreddits by subscriber base and activity. If you exclude default subreddits, they're probably in the top 50 subs. Considering they probably have even more penetration through the amount of lurkers (like me), I wouldn't be surprised if they drove a sizeable chunk of users away from Big-Tech.

Edit (for personal reasons): I'm not on T_D because I support Trump. I go there to get a perspective of people who I don't completely understand, in order to better understand their needs/fears. Also, their memes are dank.
IntelliJ has their own stuff, it does not use the RLS.
I use:

- OpenStreetMap.org for general lookups, routing, etc.

- Google Maps for street view and, when not on OSM, business information ("where's the nearest McDonald's"). Slow, bloated, but annoyingly complete because market share.

I also have backgrounds from Bing because they're pretty and refresh daily.

I haven't looked at Bing Images in a while, that's a good one. Image search, as well as video search (Youtube), is still a Google search for me. From a first glance, it looks pretty similar except for the preview thumbnails below an enlarged image; that's nice.

You wrote "There is no bad publicity". Do you agree with your statement or not?

> The only reason googling shows so much confusion is most people don't understand the definitions of routing and switching.

No, it means that people are using a broader definition that is not locked into the OSI model. Both definitions are valid but the OSI one is a subset of the other one. Than means the OSI one can't describe certain network devices that exist in the real world. A layer 3 switch can't exist according to the OSI model. It can in the real world.

Go way back to the parent of this thread. See the sentence "Anyway, OSI model is mostly a mental picture that bear little practical relevance."? Yet you're here arguing we have to use the OSI model's definition of switching and routing.

> "Layer 2" = switching. "Layer 3" = routing.

Only if you think that the OSI model is the be all end all definition of what a network is. It's not. The TCP/IP designers didn't think so either and moved functionality that was traditionally in the lower layers to the upper layers.

> "Layer 3 switch" = a marketing term

Yes, it's been turned into a marketing term. But to understand why it's a marketing term you need to know what a real layer 3 switch is. Then it becomes readily apparent why they really created is a router with a handful of switching features rolled in for speed.

> Your "pure layer 3 switch" that only services a single subnet is actually a regular old layer 2 switch.

No it's not. If you could modify the end nodes in the network (you can with Linux or the *BSDs) to use the broadcast MAC address for the destination and have them ignore the ethertype field you'd completely bypass Layer 2. The layer 3 switches would still be able to function and switch packets to the proper nodes. A layer 2 switch in this situation would still work but would broadcast all packets to all nodes and thus stop acting as a switch.

> It doesn't need to be aware of "layer 3" at all.

If it's not aware of layer 3 at all then it's not a layer 3 switch.

A layer 3 switch by definition needs to understand layer 3. So if you had one that just switches using IP (v4 and/or v6) it would not be able to switch other protocols like IPX for example. A layer 2 switch would switch anything.
On my old Thinkpad X1 Carbon, the Caps Lock key was replaced with Home and End keys. I thought it was a brilliant idea, although I immediately remapped them to Backspace and Control respectively. The laptop also had a primitive touch-bar in place of the function keys which I actually rather liked, although the implementation was lacking. (And, unlike Apple, they kept a physical Esc key!)

Unfortunately, both of these changes were not particularly popular. I think people only disliked the Home/End keys in place of Caps Lock because it was weird and different—I saw a lot of whining online, but nobody ever complained about not being able to use Caps Lock any more!

To some extent, I see where people are coming from: I regularly use at least two different external keyboards as well as my laptop keyboard, so it's hard to get used to a weird layout in just one place out of three. I'm an early adopter at heart and willing to power through the inconvenience for what I see as a better design but I also understand that it's too much bother for other people. (And, honestly, the upside isn't that big!)

On later generations, ThinkPad switched back to a more standard layout. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple wanted to avoid a similar reaction in changing the keyboard layout too much, especially since their touchbar was already a big enough change to stir up controversy.
Your bigger VC competitors probably used Preact, inferno or other vdom libraries so it's really not a great competitive edge.

There seem to be three different premises being used for the argument that Google, et al., shouldn't be able to send service the way they do (or, in some cases like this one, are alleged with no clear evidence to do):

(1) the services, despite not legally being anything like privately owned public open spaces, should have an interest seized by the state and be converted into the digital analog of such spaces.

(2) despite in many cases having many robustly competing providers, the services should be subjected to utility-style regulation.

(3) political position ought to be a protected class for public accommodation discrimination, and all the acts at issue should be considered within the scope of prohibited political position discrimination under such law.
