You have the same recourse that you would if someone took your physical cash, which Bitcoin seeks to mimic properties of. Do you make the same arguments against physical cash, or is there some other substantive difference, are you singling out Bitcoin?
I guess it is my civic duty to point out that Google drive does not have native support for Linux , lest this point be lost in the conversation.
> I think one of the best things that can be done is to separate data gathering from analysis.

That is a stupendously bad idea. The central theme of modern scientific theory is hypothesis testing: you formulate a hypothesis, and then run experiments to see if the hypothesis holds up. If you run hypotheses on pre-canned data, what you very quickly end up with is p-hacking: running several slightly different hypotheses until one clears the significance bar. P-hacking is already a problem that occurs in practice, particularly in the social sciences (it might not be far off the mark to say that most of the results, particularly the most hyped ones, are the result of such p-hacking), and your proposal would make it more readily available and acceptable.
> But if someone is showing up with "brain fog" and underperforming while feeling skilled, that really sounds like something else is up.

One of the things that sustained stimulant abuse contributes to is sleep deprivation and the disturbance of sleep patterns. "Brain fog" - confusion, problems concentrating, memory problems, are all symptoms of sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation experiments have also consistently produced psychotic symptoms (hallucinations, paranoia, disturbed/unusual thinking - the person undergoing the psychosis of course thinks they are doing fine) - the earliest experiment I am aware of being Randy Gardner's[1] in 1964. "Stimulant psychosis" is supposed to be one of the effects of amphetamine abuse; I think the psychosis is likely due to the sleep deprivation involved in multi-day binges.

haha, so you run million of users out of a single box, no HA, sharding, backup / re-import that takes hours ect ... please... It's not all about performance, it's about running a business that's up most of the time.
Maybe you're just conditioned to not want things from your childhood. I remember wanting to have nice sneakers in school because all the other kids had nice sneakers and they'd make fun of you if you don't. I'd spend time in footlocker just looking at the stuff they had or sift through my eastbay catalogs but never buy anything. I wasn't happy that we couldn't afford them but after seeing that we had to take out loans and borrow money just to make ends meet, my desire for sneakers quickly dissipated. Even to this day when I can afford nicer sneakers I don't really want them anymore...or anything else for that matter. I feel like I've completely inhibited desires for most things, except whenever I experience quality that matters, I see the point of spending money, but it's hard to know what they are until you experience them. For example, a nice mattress is a hugely valuable investment and quality actually matters, but I never felt the difference until I crashed at my friend's house and slept in his bed. I'm curious what are some things where a more expensive version of the same thing is actually 10x better than the cheap version?
Go far enough back, and it's a metaphor for the fact that humanity themselves are descended from aliens, rather than evolved from terrestrial primates. Perhaps humans remembered this in ancient Sumeria or before? See also: The Jungle Book.
It is more than just a passing interest. There would be no Newtonian physics without religion.

"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction" is just the golden rule restated as a physical law. Newton starts from the assumption that the physical world follows a moral law because it was created and is animated by god and everything else follows from and is in accordance with that belief.
WOW, this is simple indeed, amazing how individual interactions shape collective behavior and form complex solutions.It would be even more fascinating to find out what the evolutionary path was that lead to this algorithm being picked from the presumably several similar algorithms. I am assuming similar interactions and simple instructions lead to fire ants in south america forming rafts during flooding as discussed here [1] , also it helps that ants can lift almost 5000 times its own weight [2].
Ive always been fascinated by ants and their social structure, first introduced to their amazing skills in Richard Dawking's 'The Selfish Gene' -[3]

Many of the very brightest people in my field are on Twitter, and most are usually happy to engage briefly.
I think this would make a pretty neat side project.

Has someone done this before? A google search gives a bunch of ant simulations, but I don't see any that include bridge building logic.
I mean, ideally I think it would be written as an FPGA-like piece of hardware where the connections can be synthesized from a high level description language. A la [0].

How does it work with incremental Sketch imports?

I often get a new version of a sketch file now and then and would need to import that new version while keeping/updating the old components I already have
callouses should never be a problem in weightlifting, it’s a matter of grip, here’s Mark Rippetoe: https://youtu.be/_ZBmiQm4MF4
If the companies that you're interviewing for aren't accepting of the way you are, then it might be useful to question whether those companies are for you. Yes, it's difficult to think this way when the specifics of your circumstances are difficult, but it still might be a lifestyle worth pursuing. Lentils/rice/chick peas are a super cheap way of living on a budget ;).

It's exceptionally difficult having disabilities, especially when trying to relate it in a professional environment. Though, I've found my own disabilities have been very useful in figuring out what it is that I really want out of a career and life.

Cheers and good luck.
This is the standard recommendation, but does it really help?

You do that test on the second subset, and then you discard every theory that doesn't pass both the 1600 set and the 400 set.

So you end up with the predictions that pass all the data in your original 2000 samples.

Is it really any better at generalizing to new data? If so, can you just evaluate your theories on the unpartitioned data by doing randomized subset testing after-the-fact?
I may be out of touch with current affairs, but I don't think I've encountered a single workplace where documentation has worked. Sometimes because because people were only hired to put out fires, sometimes because there was no sufficiently customized ticketing system, sometimes because they simply didn't know how to abstract their tasks into well written documents.

And in many cases because people thought they might be out of a job if they put their solutions in print. I'm guessing managers still need to counter those tendencies actively if they want documentation to happen. Plenty of good pointers in this article, I found.
I find this hard to believe. I get that it reduces space used _in thoery_, but do you have any data on the % of uploads that are duplicated across clients?

It would have to be very, very large to justify the claim that it turns a previously non-cost-effective service into a cost-effective one, especially as prices have been dropping for some time and would hypothetically have simply not dropped as fast if this was the case.
This was fun. It somehow connected towels and croissants.
I've had fallen arches since a kid and was told I can never be a runner and I'll have a tough time with my feet.

Nowadays I run mountain ultra marathons and my feet are fine, my flat arches give me no trouble at all.

Fallen arches are not a problem.
> cause you to do things that aren't necessarily characteristic of your personality

Would you mind giving details if it's a throwaway ? My mind went straight to sexual assault of some sort reading this.
Note that PG is addressing startups generally and not limiting his discussion to tech startups. From the third sentence in the post you linked:

>"Nor is it necessary for a startup to work on technology..."

I absolutely agree that Warby Parker has a disruptive business model and see them as a shining example of an innovative startup, I just wouldn't call them a tech startup because tech is not their business.
It's not an all-or-nothing proposition. Apple probably uses DCs for the majority of their storage, with the option to "burst" to AWS and/or Google, while they continue to build additional in-house capacity.
The standard library linked list doesn't support inserting in the middle
I've worked in SV for the last 3 years at one of the top 5 tech companies, and I haven't seen much drug use, personally. I would say that there's a significant percentage that have/had medical marijuana cards and would either smoke or partake in edibles, but marijuana use is the only drug I've seen first-hand. I haven't even heard of anyone doing other drugs here, though I'm sure it happens.
Cool. I can't really send it because I'll be violating the infosec policy of my company (I was already violating it trying to upload it, lol)...

I feel that eventually, you will need to set a certain standard. Not because is required on your side, but because this is how every designer/developer relationship should work. People just don't know how to do it because there's no standard or methodology.
Think how horrible would be if developers didn't have Git to collaborate... Well, that's basically the state of developer-designer collaboration. I think with this product you guys are in a good position to help solve this problem.
When you get an alert, you have to first understand the alert, and then you have to figure out what to do about it. The majority of alerts, when people don't craft them according to a standard/policy, look like this:

Subject: Disk usage high
Priority: High
Message:
There is a problem in cluster ABC.
Disk utilization above 90%.
Host 1.2.3.4.

It's a pain in the ass to go figure out what is actually affected, why it's happening, and track down some kind of runbook that describes how to fix this specific case (because it may vary from customer to customer, not to mention project to project). This is usually the state of alerts until a single person (who isn't a manager; managers hate cleaning up inefficiencies) gets so sick and tired of it that they take the weekend to overhaul one alert at a time to provide better insight as to what is going on and how to fix it. Any attempt to improve docs for those alerts are never updated by anyone but this lone individual.

Providing a link to a runbook makes resolving issues a lot faster. It's even better if the link is to a Wiki page, so you can edit it if the runbook isn't up to date.
There's actually a lot science requires a person to accept outside of data. The law of excluded middle comes to mind ...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_thought#The_three_tradi...

Science also uses induction and so relies on the future being essentially the same as the past, which is not a given. see David Hume.
This reminds me of that thing back around 2010 where if you clicked the first* link on any wikipedia page you'd eventually get to the article on philosophy or something. I forget which it was exactly, and I have no idea if it still works, but it was pretty fun back then trying to find a starting article that couldn't find the "philosophy" article.

Early indications[0] show it appears to be okay, and by okay, I mean better than Apple's OpenGL stack.

This is a subset of Vulkan, but it appears to be a broad enough subset to enable at least some game developers to more or less use the same code base.

Brigadeiro to Half-Life in 3 steps. Seems interesting.
This is why I like to GPG encrypt my stuff before I upload it to Dropbox. This way, it's pretty much guaranteed not to register as something easy to correlate against, and I can use Dropbox as just a free file store.

I assume some other people do this as well.
So what? Israel buys planes from the USA. The Americans getting their phones unlocked are, except if they're doing it at the border, criminal suspects with a warrant required for search.
Very cool. And a lot less degrees of freedom between my tests than I expected - so far everything has a legitimate 3 degrees when I expected much more. Higgs Boson to Taylor Swift in 3 steps, amazing. Not only that, but 91 ways to get there in just 3 steps.

This basically quantifies what my wife and I jokingly refer to "rabbit-holing" online. She'll ask me what I'm reading and it will be something totally unrelated to what I said I was coming to look up. And she's always like "how did that happen?" And I never have a good answer. But now I do (if it involves Wikipedia)!
You can't confirm the reporting because it's ridiculous. Apple will likely only sell about 50-52M iPhones in q2 in total, so it'd take a very ignorant reporter to claim anyone expected nearly all of those to be iPhone Xs.
Who are you to decide what's acceptable for other people? Clearly it is acceptable for people that make the choice to do it.
As someone said, you will not get rich by cutting pennies.

I spend about $50 on starbucks a month, mostly on weekends in the morning, $500/y would be not such a big gain. On the other hand the quality of life I'm getting without good morning coffee would be much, much worse.

If I would need extra $500 that bad, I would consider doing some side work or even changing the job.

It's very easy to go over the top of living frugal and forget what is the sole point of earning money and living your life in a first place.

Keep in mind that most people don't actually store the full 1TB of data.
You never have to write CSS for a Pagedraw generated component. If you must use custom css, you can mark a block in Pagedraw as a handwritten component coming from a designated file. In that component (done entirely by hand, outside Pagedraw), you can of course use whatever CSS you want. Pagedrawn components and handwritten components play nicely together; the CSS we generate shouldn't interfere at all with the CSS you write by hand for non-Pagedraw components.
Seattle — "infrastructure"
We build the infrastructure for the "start ups" in SF to use the "money" from NYC.
We began by selling mining equipment and travel to the SF startups that ventured to the Alaska Gold Rush.
We grew up building the airplanes and ships for the expanding US military (Boeing & Lockheed Shipbuilding).
We built the supply chains that run the global economy (Amazon, Costco, Expeditors Intl, UPS, Paccar)
We built the software infrastructure for the computer revolution (Microsoft).
We built the infrastructure for the cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP, F5, etc.)
We built the infrastructure for video games (Nintendo, Steam, Xbox)
We're building the infrastructure for AI/ML (All the major players are setting up their AI/ML hubs in Seattle)
Passengers Who Call Uber Instead of an Ambulance Put Drivers at Risk
Since this comment is attempting to be pedantic, I'll give you a pedantic answer: Yes I have access to google maps just like the rest of the world.

Serious answer: Yes, the landmass that constitutes Brooklyn is large. The landscape of the main neighborhoods that have gentrified over the years are not so big. If you actually live there you know which parts I am talking about.
I instinctively like these arguments but I think we should be careful about indulging them. A big part of the human animals biological advantage is just how damn versatile it is. The range of diets, climates, and lifestyles which we tolerate is vast, compared to other animals. Different permutations may produce different outcomes in terms of happiness, health/longevity, and so on, but I doubt that you could find some particular permutation that is "the right one."

There is one version of this idea that I like though, which is that I doubt that we're built for 8+ hours a day of intense abstract reasoning, which seems to be what the modern information economy demands of those aspiring to a middle class or better existence. The vast bulk of humanity did not earn their daily bread this way for most of human history, so I don't think our brains are adapted for "abstract reasoning above all else."
I don’t understand why 1&3 is frustrating? Seems like the natural way to clap/tap/bob to that particular beat.
Agreed.

The guy was a Renaissance Man through and through. It would be weirder if a guy with his level of genius and accomplishments wasn't interested in such a wide range of subjects and only was interested in a few subjects.

And by interest I don't necessarily mean that he has to excel at everyone one of them the way he did with physics and mathematics, but rather, to be intrigued enough to study them.
I disagree. KYC means nothing after the hack has happened. I dont care about people being retroactively punished, I want my coin back.
Do you all discuss the heavy use because you're concerned about the toll it could take on your lungs, in the same way you might be concerned if it was tobacco? or is it more than that? (also I can't believe you can run marathons and smoke that much!)

Skip all the programming exercises in R - just watch the videos and solve the multiple choice problems. Supplement with the decent opensource text book it links to.

Each "week" is likely only 1-2hrs of work. ~5 weeks per course. Only really need the first 2 courses:

. Introduction to Probability and Data

. Inferential Statistics
Could you make it possible to just test with the fun suggestions that scroll through?
They were profitable because the CAB asked airlines how much it cost to run their business and then worked backward from whatever they said to arrive at the fixed fares for routes. While this is great if you want to build an airline with a giant internal bureaucracy, its not great for people who just want to get from point A to point B.

The members of the CAB were all political appointments and generally did not act for good of the consumer. When Louis Hector was appointed to CAB he insisted that air service be instated to his parent's home town of Carinda, Iowa (as a joke). No one on the commission had any objections.

Incidentally, if you are looking for a good read on the history of the US airline industry from the early days of flying mail routes until the mid 90s the book 'Hard Landings' by Thomas Petzinger is really great.
Which isn't necessarily a bad solution....
Face-ID is great, and there's no 'imaginary home button' - the entire interface has been redesigned around not needing a home button.
I suppose my memory is biased (because if i visit a webpage and see it hasn't been updated since the millenium, i wont visit again) in that i only re-visit updated lab webpages.

That said, the new wave of academics (< 35) seem to be friendly to updates, IMO
> "why would the brain evolve to benefit from a chemical it doesn't normally have?"

That's the thing, that's not how it works

The brain didn't evolve to be affected by substances unknown to it, it's plants that evolved substances that have CNS effects. (Though the body did evolve to depend on a lot of external substances - be that calorie and protein sources or vitamins)

Nicotine is literally a pesticide (and yes, people do use it as such in some occasions). Not sure how other substances evolved though (I think caffeine made the coffee seeds travel further)
I made the effort of reading those links to save others the effort. Neither of them are relevant to the vulnerability in the article.
Have you had your work evaluated by people who are not drug users, to verify if it actually is better?

And what if you're on a team with someone who doesn't wish to use drugs? Are they just cut out of the big ticket tasks?
This is brilliant. For a long time I have had a 'motorway game' I play with my brother in law where we identify two cars on the road and then have to come up with the connection. So often you see badge engineered vans where one partner, e.g. Nissan rather than Renault, makes the van as seen, so you can match the other partner, e.g. Renault, in this game, since they are the same company, then the next vehicle, e.g. some Mercedes car, how do you get the link, and prove it when at motorway speed?

Clearly this app makes it effortless, you could find some supplier like Recaro actually make the seats in both, even the van. Or you could find some joint venture in Brazil that both companies share, who knows... So I look forward to using this app on the M4 some time soon!
Ethereum Founder Hoskinson May Cover Legal Fees for IOTA Critic
This is something you learn in the basic "Architecting on AWS class" (or at least they used to teach it about 4 years ago).

It's also a fairly common theme in all types of partitioned datasets, whether it's MongoDB, S3, DynamoDB, or (insert your example here--I'd love to hear it).

Good to know if you're new to S3, but not a groundbreaking article by any stretch of the imagination.
> "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction" is just the golden rule restated as a physical law.

No, it's closer to lex talionis stated as a physical law.

Which I guess is also religious.
Creator here. Six Degrees of Wikipedia is a side project I've been sporadically hacking on over the past few years. It was an interesting technical challenge and it's fun to play with the end result. Here's the tech stack:

* Frontend: React (Create React App)
* Backend: Python Flask
* Database: SQLite
* Web (frontend) hosting: Firebase Hosting
* Server (backend) hosting: Google Compute Engine (it runs fine on a tiny f1-micro instance)

All the code is open source[1] and I'm happy to answer any questions about building or maintaining it!

Why not?

If someone is talking about a personal experience, why can't that be valuable to see another perspective?

You can get Zimbardo talking about how Evil people aren't always evil, but sometimes evil due to their environment, and then you can see that reflected in art like Atlanta where characters are robbing their friends because they need resources to survive. Then you can hear a song by The Animals that shows the narrative across eras and ethnicity.

Is this an "art isn't valuable" sort of option or "artists I don't like make art I don't like" sort of thing?
