SRE vs. DevOps: What's the difference?
Allowing yourself to be dragged into the same argument over and over again, because some people are just not listening (creationism, flat earthers, moon hoax believers, ...) is a waste of time. Publicly reminding the readers about the majority view on the situation and then letting the argument go is fine as a response.

(And yes, the majority view is that Rand is not worthy of any special attention as either a philosopher, political theorist, economist or author. Not more worthy than any other random member of those groups of people.)
Most even vaguely urbanized areas in the US have this, but it's a typically a municipal-level (county or city) thing, so yes, there are sizable chunks of the US that have no zoning or building codes, but they're out in the boonies and typically in areas where people live on large parcels, so there are fewer problems with neighbors complaining, since they might not even be able to tell from their own property. That doesn't mean you can build a factory or nuclear plant necessarily, since those kinds of things will typically require state- or federal-level permits, but it does mean you can put up a fence or a pole barn on your own land without asking anyone's permission.
I wonder if macOS is still using an older version of pf. Last time I looked it was old enough that a lot of the examples and discussions about pf were of limited value or required translation to the older version.
The problem is all of these institutional systems rely a lot on people being in "good faith". From the president to the police-man.

Maybe you missed CVE-2018-0986 (https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-US/security-guidance/ad...) and other related notices for Defender and other products, but it's not a great idea these days to let poor quality (remember, MS fired its QA) highly privileged software like Windows Defender or other antiviruses run and automatically scan every file (or worse as some newer systems are doing attach themselves to every process and scan their memory) since that software is itself vulnerable to exploits.

Admittedly the link I posted goes a bit beyond what's strictly needed, but it captures the spirit of the classic Windows setup. It used to be, you buy a new machine, first thing you do is wipe the pre-installed Windows (and all the crap the machine's seller put on there), hope there's not a rootkit (Lenovo, Sony), then install vanilla Windows, then install your graphics drivers... Now it's wipe the pre-installed Windows Home, go buy Windows Professional and then install that, go through the above link to vanilla-ize it and get rid of the pre-installed crap plus take back control of your privacy and machine behavior, then you're ready to download graphics drivers and so on...

This means it's a lot more dangerous to use machine learning for crimes like jaywalking where punishment is discretionary than crimes like murder or jumping bail where the crime will pretty much always be noted and investigated.
0.01 is kind a big deal if you do that a few 1000 times though right ?
With static typing, you usually have this big suite of unit tests that check a whole bunch of basic correctness out of the box, called the compiler... /s

If you actually use the type system, and build less anemic types, you can eliminate huge swathes of potential errors.

Initial thoughts on Samsung’s EUV paper at #VLSI2018: SRAM yields are very low, 50% for 64x256Mb die on 1 wafer. Using EUV on metal layers without a pellicle is an odd choice. Significantly lower variability for EUV vs. LE^n as expected, unclear vs. SAQP.

>It's not an odd choice it's essential. EUV requires more sensitive resists or higher source powers period. You can't use a pellicle because then you drop your wafers per hour another 10-15% (cus pellicles like everything, absorb EUV) and suddenly EUV isn't so profitable.

Well it’s an odd choice if you want high yield! BEOL is fairly dense and no pellicle is like juggling knives.

>Oh I'm well aware of the danger. But it's ok EUV is HVM ready right? This is everyone desperate to recoup what is now probably trillion+ dollars of EUV RND. The throughput is just going to get worse at smaller feature sizes as shot noise dominates requiring higher doses.

EUV is definitely not HVM ready. Also, if it we have to wait too long, we will need DP EUV, which will be tremendously expensive.
On both Xbox one and ps4 you and a friend can set each other's console as your 'home' console. You can then play their digital purchases as well as your own, but with the caveats:

- you must be signed in online to play your own purchases

- other accounts on the console you own lose access to games purchased by your account

You don't need to reveal your passwordor share accounts, just sign in on the console once and set it as 'home'.
Would you rather have one set of rules for trade that you have to deal with, or thirty different potentially incompatible ones, not all of which are translated into English?

Unfortunately, neither of those things happens consistently the way you might expect. One of the big problems with the EU VAT changes for digital services was that suddenly instead of just knowing your own country's tax rate and being able to apply it throughout the EU, you had to know each member state's tax rates and in some cases their oddities around things like invoice formats or special classes of products or services that carried different rates. In other words, those changes did essentially the opposite of what the EU is supposed to do.

Going the other way, if treating the whole EU as a single entity also means you can't offer products or services at different prices based on the widely different economic conditions in different member states, that is a large and entirely artificial distortion in the market, and it's a policy with questionable social and economic benefits.
Very much so, especially in my personal life
So to summarize: “1-2 clicks” for 3 and “1-2 clicks” for 4. Are these clicks hidden behind the scary disclaimer I get when I enter “about:config”?

I think you are being defensive and completely underplaying the effort required by saying “1-2 clicks”.

Dude, these things should be opt-in and not opt-out.

Ah, I see! Tortoise SVN is great for the scenario where business users can learn and use revision control, too, but I guess once you're doing branching using Tortoise SVN, you're in a weird territory where you're pro, but not to the extent you're ready to use the command line...
What constitute a good or bad idea has to be related with how much money you end up making. As it stands the variety of crypto currency and the fact that an ASIC's algorithm is set in stone makes it so it's possible to mine some crypto currencies on GPUs for a better profit with respect to the cost of electricity.

Disparate impact applies to actions which are unjustified. For instance imagine I decide to never hire somebody who likes rap music. That would have a disparate impact on a certain group of people, yet since it probably has nothing to do with the job I'm hiring for, it would be unjustified and could be argued to be a form of disparate impact discrimination.

By contrast imagine for a labor job I decide to never hire anybody who can't left and carry at least 120 pounds. That would also have a disparate effect negatively impacting a protected class, but it would be justified. Machine learning takes all data and draws conclusions that map strongly against the data and ideally generalize to new scenarios. So long as the behavior trying to be predicted for was relevant to the task at hand, using the recommendations of such algorithms would certainly be justified and thus not fall under disparate impact.

In a nutshell disparate impact is not to ensure equality of result, but to prevent discrimination by proxy. And discrimination not being of the form 'I'm not going to hire women because they can't lift as much as men' but of the form 'I'm not going to hire women because I don't like working with women.'
Just to address "d" in your list. Consensus is hugely important in team environments. If you're an indie dev, do what makes you happy (and profitable). But if you're in a team, be a team member.

My team just had an coworker leave for another team. This coworker was very smart, very hardworking, and very dedicated. But he continually chafed against any sort of documentation or communication. He also chafed against any established standards or policies; pretty much did what he wanted, and was never really called on the mat for these issues.

He got away with this because he was a "rockstar." He could solve some pretty hairy problems fairly quickly. But explaining these fixes to others was difficult for him, and many of his solutions were MacGyver-esqe. He had come from a small shop where he wore many hats; we're a large enterprise with lots of teams. This means that communication is probably the most vital skill for team success.

Since he didn't share or document his changes and fixes, the remaining team members are now left trying to divine what he did. While I blame him for a lot of this behavior, I primarily blame his manager who continually tolerated it. Ironically, this manager is shocked and confused as to why he lost his rockstar.
From experience, this works.

But once you're done, consider whether or not you should publish the tutorial. At a minimum, have it reviewed by people that are in the known, and will give you honest feedback (insist on that).
Dunno, but the BTC price has dropped so the demand for GPUs has dropped along with it.

Great response from Alex Russell, but it's clear that the sentiments of the Chrome team aren't translating into policy elsewhere in Google, or we wouldn't be dealing with something like this every few months.
I've used guile to do pipeline like transformations of data by using multiple function calls. It has the advantage of a more consistent api to do the transformations on the stream of data and surely better type checking. The syntax is different but I think about it as being similar.

Despite its messiness, doing ad-hoc integration of command line tools to transform text is really handy. It also spreads the cpu utilization and memory usage across the commands that you use in the pipeline.
Don't know how much nvidia has to do with it, they're not the party making the final product.

Which is weird btw, why are they deferring to other parties to build and sell the actual cards?
Not to mention, the ASIC I've seen was mounted with two delta-like fans and was about 3 times noisier than 6 TI cards. Also, power availability is always a limiting problem the true metric eventually becoming how much hardware can you run on the power you have access to and how much money will that net you per day/month.
Not a chance. The next series will give at least a 30% margin over the 1080 Ti. Remember that there is a process shrink which is allowing an increase in 30% of CUDA cores and maybe faster MHz speeds.

Some rumors which seem to be somewhat on point:

The rumors those are NVIDIA is going to raise the price of its GPUs further though.
> We have intolerant groups on both sides of many issues. Are we going to censor all of them?

Who did you have in mind?
This must be a cultural thing.

There are plenty of people who happily interact like this daily. It is a personality. People talk and act in different ways, they are different people, I think it is reasonable for them to continue acting like themselves.

I don't find the way Linus writes offensive in the slightest. To me it is mildly amusing while making a point. I don't want to have all communications in a forced polite cotton wool tone, it becomes robotic. Further encourages people to act over-sensitive, making it harder to communicate.
> I dunno why that would be controversial or argument against this diagnosis

Because I don't think it's a meaningful diagnosis or disorder, and that it is inherently a puritanical value judgement. How many people have their lives negatively affected by working excessive hours, by focusing on sports instead of academics, or any number of other things that will never get their own label?
No matter what stage of the project, you're implicitly writing code to a specific type whether you know it or not. Typescript just makes types explicit, and makes clear all the places you've made type assumptions. So if you need to change types later in the project, you can do so with confidence knowing that you've handled all the cases you made type assumptions.
I guess I would still be impressed, not by the sincerity of the greeting, but by the fact that the airline pays enough attention to the small details to actually train attendants to care about passengers birthdays among all the other things they have to do.
It's great that there's loads of tutorials out there on most topics. it's not so good that so many of them are crap, or straight up wrong.

> it is your responsibility as a learner to decide if something makes sense or not

I disagree. It's on the teacher to explain clearly and accurately. If you can't meet that low bar don't pollute the net. The beginner is usually unable to decide which piece of conflicting advice or misinformation is correct.

For a great example of this see the php reference and the dozens of conflicting comments and recommendations on each language feature. A beginner has none of the nuance needed to decide which are helpful and which are misunderstandings. Or w3schools for an endless litany of poor and partial explanations.

> experts are far detached from the beginner's mindset and often lack the ability to explain something in simple terms

Again that's on the teacher and it need not be the case that an expert is detached (Though some can be). Explaining in simple lay terms is a different skill that is entirely unrelated to expertise of a subject.

You don't need to be expert to write a beginners tutorial, but you really should have the foundation firmly fixed (and validated by others or use) and reasonable ability to write clearly.

Until then writing a "my experience learning x" blog is a far better service to the internet. Save the tutorials a month or two more for when you have enough grasp to be helping rather than hindering.

Your proposals are going to slow down tons of real-world C programs that are not engaged in these types of manipulations, to the point where people writing high-performance software are better off using Python, or need to make so many changes to their source code to recover reasonable performance that they might as wll make a few more changes and end up with Go and Rust.

AGI will need to be able to learn and represent any symbol system, just like we can. And it doesn't have to be that good at it(we arn't). There's millions of knowledge bases all around. You'll need something with a generative imagination. We model so much more than labels and relation ships.

I used it when I last had a windows machine at work. We essentially got extensive QA testing in a less common browser for ‘free’, without sinking productivity into debugging through a testing pipeline, because it was my default browser and so everything was built using the feedback from it.

You can safely assume most of what you do to get things working there will pretty much be fine in the big browsers too, and it saves a huge headache when you’ve developed solely for Chrome and realise your app is totally broken in other browsers that, let’s be honest, many designers and devs will be too snooty to care about even if their analytics present a valid reason for supporting.

There’s a serious point: cleaner code makes high-level optimizations easier and those are usually far bigger wins. I’ve seen more than a few times where Python, Perl, etc. beat hand-tuned C because the C used so many clever tricks that nobody wanted to change it.
Weekly Machine Learning Opensource Roundup – June 21, 2018
That makes sense. I think my HN incoherence limit was exceeded here at 2 am.
You asked "my best", so, at home:

- Xubuntu 18.04 on older i7 with 16Gb RAM and SSD, with two fullHD monitors.

- Libreoffice and Modelio.org for the "architecture" tasks

- IntelliJ Ultimate with several plugins for all server-side jvm development

- postgresql for sql related needs

- couple of zshells on multitabbed multipanelled Terminator

- Firefox quantum with uBlock Origin for the browsing needs

- bitbucket for source control

- noise cancelling headphones.

( but at the day job, it's a buggy windows 10 with eclipse on a i5, single HD 1366x768 monitor, 8Gb RAM, HDD... the thing reboots for no reason twice a day. )
One could then provision a fleet of brains as parallel processors to do machine learning.
That’s why decent countries have regulation to make them care about things other than short-term profit.

I will grant there is some truth about your first point however I have some doubt as to the extent to which it'll be a problem for two reasons. The first is that WebAssembly will narrow down the variability of programming language X with respect to Y. The second is that I've consumed several JavaScript libraries from F# (using WebSharper) and always found my out. In particular, I've seen all sorts of libraries adapted to Angular directives (which I think relays some of the problems) so we know people can learn to handle it.

Your second point is fair, however I think programmers tend to stick to their "favourite programming language" like a religion and fail to appreciate that learning a new programming language can be done in 2 weeks while learning the ecosystem of libraries of a platform is a multi-year endeavour. In particular, you'll be able to carry your knowledge of all the WASM libraries you've learned to love when you decide to make a switch from say JS to XXX.
