I don't know what the OP is doing, but something like XGBoost scales really well across multiple cores.

I've used my 2014 MBP with a 4 core i7 (plus hyperthreading) plus 3 desktop i5 boxes for over 24 hours straight on the same XGB task before. The 8 CPU threads on the MBP lets it outperform more recent machines on this kind of task.

I will think more but scratching the emulsion only partially sounds like a really good explanation to me. Where the image is dark, though, there should be very little dye left in the emulsion, so I'm not 100% convinced. Still thinking about it though :)

The surgeons and Johns Hopkins volunteered their services, which would otherwise have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and wouldn't have been covered by veterans benefits or insurance, they say. (because it's still experimental)

For prototyping (as in making sure you have your matrix shapes right) the CPU versions of TensorFlow and PyTorch are fine.

They are even ok for some kinds of training (eg, if you are doing transfer learning with a fixed embedding/feature representation and have a pretty small parameter space to learn).

But it's so easy to fire up a cloud instance at Paperspace or somewhere and push some code across.
> The only time the FCC cares is if you're fucking shit up for others.

A friend who broadcast on an FM frequency that's unused locally (broadcasting family-friendly Christmas music, I might add) got shut down by the FCC, who sent out people out in the evening to have a chat with him. They care, even when you're not fucking shit up for others. I have no idea what experience you might be basing your statement on, but traditionally the local HAM guys will take offense at any little thing that comes to their attention and the FCC will be happy to follow up on it. (I know at least one local HAM who has lightened up a bit about this stuff over the years but I don't think the feds have)

When it comes to oddball noise, they'll act pretty quickly if there's someone like a busybody HAM to spell out to them exactly where the interference is coming from. Of course, plenty of times it's a HAM who is causing the interference...

> The "very same equipment under control of its official driver" won't have an amplifier and antenna connected to its output. If it did, it obviously would fail its EMC test approvals process.

Forgive me, but this seems quite a blanket statement to make of the tens-hundreds of millions of VGA cable and LCD/CRT designs and design combinations in deployment for the past 30+ years around the world, equipment combinations that never did (and never will) undergo system testing to verify there aren't, in fact, thousands+ of unintentional transmitters deployed already, by people who haven't a clue about their aberrant devices.

It's not like you can't buy dirt-cheap $5 unshielded ultra long VGA extender cables by the literal truckload off AliExpress and eBay, and that you don't find such cables strung vertically to 640x480 projectors hanging off the ceiling of just about every conference center, lecture hall, hotel business suite or similar meeting venue known to man.

Meanwhile this project is explicitly about creating a transmitter in an environment where it is understood by every user upfront the result could be noisy

I remember that in part of modding the Wii, one of the tools asked if you were going to use the tool to play backups. I took it literally; my plan was to rip my game disks and run them from a USB drive. I answered "yes"...and the tool spit up a message against piracy, and set a flag somewhere in the NAND of the Wii.

I don't remember exactly how I fixed it...I think there was some undocumented way to clear the flag that you could only find by reading the tool's source. It was a good reminder of how much stupid, blind trust I tend to put into random tools from the internet.

during these days my company was in a data center in Los Angeles next to "Web hosting for life" a company who's business model was based on a single upfront payment that got you hosting for "life". (Whatever that means). Their secret sauce was cages full of 19" Telco racks with shelves filled with motherboards, power supplies, and hard drives. No cases. Some of the hard drives were zip tied to the shelves. We'd tour potential customers through the data center and say "this is what shared hosting gets you, what if your site was bring served from that "server" with it's hard drive hanging by a broken zip tie?" It was a great sales technique.

I use pine as my primary email client for all things. Even at work, I have pine set up as a client to Gmail for work's Gmail account. This is because I think that email clients which are basically web browsers are horrible, that I don't want anything to pull any data from any link without my express desire, and because stuff like Javascript has no place, now or ever, in email.

Email is text. If it's not text, then it's not email.

Through all of this, if your manager isn't supporting you, you're probably doomed. Unless they do something that's obviously going to get the company in legal trouble, HR won't care. Remember, HR is there to keep the company out of hot water, and they are never there for you.

This is very true in my experience and probably worth underscoring. How many of you feel like your boss isn't supporting you? Whenever that happens, watch out.

There's a flipside, though. It's not as scary to change jobs as it seems. And you'll probably be much happier.
not to mention that the difference in money can be life-changing. it is not uncommon to see a 2-3x total comp. multiple as a "level 3" at the referenced companies compared to a small one.

I think some of your issues are just inherent to the fact it's a wiki rather than the design of the markup. I mean I could edit the page just now from "Latest release" to "Latest version" or some such - it's just how wikis are.
I would agree... but perhaps I am looking at it code first. In the past a ThingController could return multiple Views (with possibly different models) for each action Get/Post/etc.

Get -> return View(GetResponseModel) -> Get.cshtml

Post -> return View(PostResponseModel) -> Post.cshtml

Can the Razor OnGet and OnPost only return one "model" to the "page"? It appears the page can only take one model.

OnGet -> ThingModel -> ThingPage

OnPost -> ThingModel -> ThingPage

The entry point Page (aka a View) seems to dictate the model returned and hence limits what type any "Action" can return. Am I reading this right?

And how about returning other types besides 'Pages' - like JSON (a la JSONResult).
All feed readers are centralized, even one you run on your laptop. I learned from Reader's shutdown that a centralized service shutting down is no big deal. I can easily export my feeds from Feedly and move them somewhere else if the need arises.

I learned from Google that if I want a nice centralized feed reader I need one that I can support. That's why I pay for Feedly.
There are a few issues which make moving backwards incredibly difficult. Notably, its almost impossible to negotiate a reduction in pay without being accused of constructive dismissal. When a ladder is put in place its usually tied to comp, so that the engineering organization can have some semblance of a predictable budget.

I really respect Rachel and all her writing. Our industry needs something more widely accepted as a best practice which is transparent to existing employees as well as new people getting into the field.
> I can't help feeling like there is a lot of tool blaming happening when the wrong tools were used in the first place.

Well, let's be fair: it's a bit surprising that a series of clear, readable key/value pairs in that Wikipedia "MacOS" infobox table can't be delivered by their API as JSON key/value pairs.

Using their API I can generate a JSON that has a big blob sandwiched in there. With the xmlfm format[1] that same blob has some nice-looking "key = value" pairs, too. Funny enough, those pairs for some reason exclude the "latest release" key.

Anyway, is there any case where a <tr> containing two columns in the Wikipedia infobox table doesn't hold a key/value pair? That just seems like such a valuable source of data to make available in simple JSON format.

If you’re just starting out or just launch small articles into the aether, Medium is fine. If you have zillions of paying subs or a few high-paying subs, you’re gonna want a more tailored platform that can help you deliver them more value than what they paid so that you get good WoM network effects. By that time, you should have self / staff / contractors whom can write CMS plugins, edit videos, write good copy, choose pleasant fonts, make decent themes and generally make the site pleasant and fresh.

RSS is as alive as www.myspace.com is.

Before you point out how RSS powers all kinds of other invisible stuff that most people aren't aware of, that's not what this article is talking about, nor is it what people mean when they say RSS is dead.

If you truly believe that RSS has as much influence over consumers in 2018 as a decade or so ago, you probably do live in an alternate reality.

Hmm, no.

Why are you putting this "forced charity work" condition on it?

Someone who retires early has saved enough to live on their investments. That's no different from someone with a trust fund, but the difference is that they earned it.

Think of it this way; if you won the lottery tomorrow, would it be a better contribution to your community to keep working in order to pay taxes, or retire so that someone who needs your job to live and support their family can do it instead?
In my current company for 2 years I was reporting to a director who didn't care at all. No promotions, no raises, nothing. Then a new manager came in between me and the director and suddenly promotion, raises and more interesting work. Having an unsupportive manager is almost for sure career death and a strong reason for leaving.

A comprehensive prompt is an extremely useful and an underappreciated productivity booster.

But please, when making screencast or screenshots, use a simple prompt.

Because the information included in the prompt is often not only irrelevant, it can be actively distracting and makes reading through less pleasant by increasing the required eye-movement and cognitive effort to filter out the useless content.

> backing up savegames

This. I decided against buying a switch because I discovered that it prevents owners from backing up save files.

I still don't plan to buy a switch until nintendo supports backing up save files officially like they do with cross-region compatibility. Having to loose 100s of hours of progress for what amounts to an arbitrary reason from a nintendo bigwig is not something I am willing to stomach.
meh, as usual my opinion is the opposite here.

step one, don't become wrapped up in the ideal of being "a writer". find something useful to say, then say it forcefully. or just churn out garbage to pay the bills. nobody else is looking at your work with the same perspective as you do.

step two, don't lament that readers might not read what you wrote. if you build it, they will come, so long as your marketing team does their job right.

step three, open palm slam any notions of "profundity" into the ground, immediately. profound things come in concise packages, and we call them data. i guess if you're interested in making some kind of flowery Literature, you might think that you could get a free pass out of this step, but no, you can't. you can make things sound pretty and contain real information without falling into the forced affectation of "Literature". it doesn't matter if you're telling a story about fantastical characters or telling a story about how there are four nitrogenous bases in DNA. don't aim for profound, aim for communication of insight.

step four, if you're concerned that you're not impacting the world as a writer, you're writing about the wrong stuff, or to the wrong people. the author complains that swords beat pens. but that's a cop out. swords are merely the continuation of the work of pens by other means. (shout out to clausewitz, a guy who understood this principle very well)

finally -- and this is really something that cannot be said enough -- history is a story of those who lived with both their feet on the ground and whose focus was on putting one foot in front of the other. the more you fixate on "living in the shadow of X" or "if only america valued Y, I'd Z" or "They don't understand Us because We're Enlightened" or "Our Generation Of Writers" the more you get lost in a fantasy world of thoughts which are disconnected from the physical reality of your fingers smashing the keys of your keyboard, which is the primary mode of productivity for writers. does any of the above stuff prevent you from smashing those keys? no, if you are sitting here and reading this, it does not.

think about stuff all the time, yeah. but don't talk yourself in circles when it comes to things that you can't relate back to the physical world at the moment. mental walls become real, but that doesn't mean that they bear any weight. live in the here and now, and manipulate information which you can prove or at least correlate to a physical phenomenon.
Not mentioned in the article: its range is apparently from UHF to 1.7GHz+
That was funny.

Mozilla used to make that more prominent. Most users didn't care, because they still didn't know what that weird icon meant. That was ultimately the downfall of RSS - the web tech scene never managed to communicate to the average user what RSS was good for, what it did, and how to use it.

The issue isn't "not knowing about RSS/ATOM". You don't need to. The same way e.g. you don't need to know what the octane numbers for gasoline mean. What you do need to know is what it does for you, and that answer has always been "not enough to satisfy the hassle".

(A good chunk of the blame here goes to all the larger, traffic-hungry web sites that only published excerpts via RSS, with a click-through link. It transformed a useful feed into a rather useless list of self-updating bookmarks)
Anyone who talks about revival of RSS without talking about how it will be sustainable is just ignorant or naive, because the main reason it became what it became has everything to do with money.

Content providers centralized because centralized attention is more valuable than aggregation of decentralized attention in an ad driven economy.

Just because you want RSS to make a come back doesn't mean it has any chance of coming back unless it makes sense economically. And I don't see any of that mentioned in this article, nor am I aware of one that's guaranteed to work as good as ad driven model.

You might as well say it's a perfect time for the renaissance of steam engines.
Yeah, the risk of small companies is that in order to change the scenery you have to leave. A sizable company (>250 people) in which people can move across teams is ideal, this is the main advantage of matrix management structures. Sad to hear about the leveling crap at Google et al. it is truly amazing how significantly HR policies can muck up a company by interfering with it's employees.
