The bias makes sense and I wouldn't call it a conspiracy theory. Where are the censors hired?

Californians have a different idea about hate speech than people from Alabama who have a different view of hate speech than someone from Bangalore.

So if you hire your censors from California you are going to see right wing rogue ideas considered hate speech.

We never deploy on a Friday unless it's a truly trivial change or a fix to a critical bug. That way we can avoid staying late on Friday or coming in over the weekend.

Other than that, we deploy whenever we have something deploy-ready, tho usually not last thing before packing up for the evening.

I have a few questions!

1) Did others in the org recognize you couldn't spend as much time on code, and they appreciated your time elsewhere? I can imagine there being some growing pains as you slowly gave your responsibilities to someone else, and in the meantime things not getting finished as quickly/productively. (Not to mention the fact that an average engineer wouldn't like spending 12-14 hours per day coding)

2) What is your favorite advice from the books you've read? What made the biggest impact on your actions?
I would have thought that art theft looked a lot like high-end auto theft - where the cars are stolen in the high “rule of law” countries and sold in low “rule of law” countries...whereas a stolen car kept in kept in a high “rule of law” country is risky and can probabaly only be parted out...

It seems that ffmpeg 4.0 supports av1, but only via the reference encoder. The faster rav1e encoder isn't a bundled option... ( https://github.com/xiph/rav1e )

However that does make me hopeful that I could annotate the start delay for each track, split off the video track, and re-combine an externally encoded video stream.

What you're describing is not the grey area I'm talking about that people frequently confuse with illegal insider trading. I'm referring to the way that people believe Congress is explicitly allowed to get away with things ordinary people are not. Post-2012, they are not, but their work still exposes them to information they can legally use depending on the circumstances. That does not constitute insider trading, even for a relatively overzealous SEC.
That really shouldn't be how opting in works.
What about the environmental impact of the PillPack packaging strategy?

http://assets.coolhunting.com/coolhunting/mt_asset_cache/201...

(note: above image is of an already mostly empty PP box, they often come stuffed completely full)

https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/Jz4Xw7Xs-Fxnige1c2qnDlez-c0=...

I used PillPack a few years ago, and appreciated the reliable auto-refill (in fact their behavior was borderline insanely aggressive, which was fine by me).

However, the volume of single-use plastic trash created by the way PillPack does packaging was downright excessive, and I felt so guilty about it I deactivated my account. It is less convenient now, but after going back to using typical mail-order and local B&M pharmacies in town the process results in approximately 10-20% of the amount of trash.

See the images linked above as examples of what comes with each shipment - it's a plastic case full of little plastic pouches. There is 1 plastic pouch per dose of medication, and the plastic pouches are wound tightly inside. The volume of single-use plastic adds up rather quickly with PillPack.

EDIT:

Why all the downvotes? "Internet points" are unimportant, but it is curious and unsettling to see information about wasteful high-pollution corporate practices deep-sixed.
If that's the implication it's pretty much just crazy talk. I mean, is the suggestion the company actually stopped all work for a period of months? Obviously not, so it seems like a huge non-sequitur.
No, because you can still read things that have been heavily downvoted. Flagging on the other hand can actually make things unreadable.

The interconnects have gotten waaaayyy better in datacenters over the past five years or so when compared to Infiniband. Stuff like FPGAs doing data plane routing, and all of the "converged Ethernet" standards like RoCE have really narrowed the gap between Ethernet and Infiniband.
Homeless people using transit as a shelter is a huge problem, it makes transit undesirable. Also politicians are so milquetoast they won't address the problem for fear of looking like a 'bad guy' when in reality transit was never designed to be a homeless shelter, so homeless need to be forcibly removed from the vehicle and excluded from the transit system where possible. Eventually homeless ruin everything they touch and society needs to find a way to deal with them.

I'd say there are two differences between goggles and medication.

1) Goggles used the existing supply chain. Which, as noted, was designed around the idea that customers would rather have cheaper things from any vendor that things from a specific vendor. Presumably the greenfield / acquired med supply chain is engineered around different desires and regulations.

2) By the time the goggle issue came up, inventory was already in the system. With some presumably co-mingled. I'm just saying I wouldn't want to be the DB analyst who got tasked with untangling that.

I'm surprised Amazon wasn't in the running, do they have their own VCS/Git yet?

VSTS has a git clone, so it's a little weird them buying github, I can see it for the community/open source promotions, etc... Amazon could've probably integrated it well with AWS.

Honestly, this gave me a push to look at other options, and I'm liking gitlab more and more for the way it's organized, it's integration w/ devops like kubernetes (don't use yet, but someday I might lol), and I really like the way you can create groups, and organize projects under different groups.

The free plan also has tons of bells and whistles, for a solo dev.

HPC Finding Footing in AI Present
I and many of my peers grew up in suburbs but ended up in cities after college, without owning cars. I always assumed I'd buy a car, move to the suburbs, and live the same lifestyle that I was used to, but once I got accustomed to walking to the grocery store, taking the bus to work, biking anywhere I can, etc, I realized that I actually really prefer this lifestyle and I will live in walkable neighborhoods as long as I can, even if I have kids.
The simple answer is to let them go. You don't have to let them go in USA. If you can't bribe some Pacific island to take them along with all the Uyghurs, then release them in the benighted desert wasteland from where you kidnapped them. If the nominal government of said wasteland doesn't want them, use some of that good old CIA ingenuity to smuggle them in anyway. What better use of "Special Forces", than to fix previous screw-ups that used Special Forces?

The way to avoid "an uphill slog" is to just do it, via executive order. Obama knew about executive orders; he signed thousands of them while in office. That's a big reason why his successor has had such fun: while laws can only be changed by new laws, executive orders can be changed by new executive orders. Trump has staff whose only job is cataloging executive orders to overturn.

"National security experts" will tell us that the few hundred poor bastards we still have in the hole are some sort of existential threat to us a decade after we kidnapped them, but they are lying as usual. We are vulnerable to actual vulnerabilities, not random people with adverse sentiments. To lock up everyone who hates USA or the horrible things that USA does, we'd have to lock up about a billion people. To change the world, we must change ourselves.

Speaking more generally, this sclerotic way of thinking is why a cretin like Trump can get so deep inside the OODA loop of his political opponents. When they say "we just can't", it's because they can't find a lobbyist or think tank ghoul to tell them they can. When one considers all the truly awful things various politicians have decided they could do, it's a bit sickening.
The pros in the article are mostly sarcastic. It's basically a riff on "criminals are stupid". There's also a play to the romantic image of art thieves.

Love Keras. If you like, you can also use the Keras API inside TensorFlow (as tf.keras). We recently published this guide w/ more info - https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r1.9/programmers_guide/k... - and are working on a few more examples for the v1.9 release in a couple weeks.

Optionally, you can also use tf.keras in combination w/ eager execution, enabling you to write code like this: https://colab.research.google.com/github/tensorflow/tensorfl...
Unless you're performing some magic elsewhere in the codebase, this will leak connections if an exception is thrown since you're not closing the connection in a 'finally' block. Alternatively, depending on your version of Python, you could use a 'with' context to ensure the connection is closed.

To get what you want, you must first understand the perspective of others. Understand their motivations and incentives and then take the path of least resistance. Apparently pharmacists can be held personally liable for narcotic law violations. When you pay in cash instead of with an insurance claim you are not in the system. Not all cash payers are trouble, but a noticeably higher proportion of cash payers are trouble. The same goes for being a new patient/customer, saying you lost your bottle, or needing an early refill. Assholes who re-sell their methylphenidate are why DEA, docs, pharmacies, etc. are putting up barriers.

As you noted this can be hostile to the people who need to take their meds. You can get stuck in a vicious cycle where being in urgent need is interpreted as suspicious which leads to denials and lack of meds makes you more harried. It's worst for people who are physically dependent on their meds and will who go into withdrawl, pain, or become very unproductive.
The very title is as ridiculous on its face as is the underlying idea. It suggests that the car is a being of its own that the city was built for. It doesn't occur to the author that each car has at least one person in it. Almost always that person is driving so she may interact with other people, work with other people, or transact business with other people, or he is himself driving for a business that is doing work for other people.

The city was built so people can get around and interact with others. The means by which people are doing this is cars and trucks. The city is indeed built for people, which is precisely why the city accommodates cars: they are immensely useful means of transportation. It's ridiculous to suggest the city is "built for cars" as though the car is some sort of being with wants and demands. The car is serving the people of the city.

City. I live in a city (to be precise Lehi City, Utah [1] population 65k).

If we're talking large cities, say pop 400k+ (San Fran is 870k), then sure assume apartments. I didn't see any qualifiers; it seems the author is advocating these ideas for all cities.

And 70% of Americans live in city/town/village/hamlet/whatever of less than 100k. [2]

(Perhaps that is solely because of the aforementioned urban planning issues, and they would all jump at the chance to live in a shared dwelling in a dense well-planned city. I suspect not, but perhaps.)

Well, no. Latvia is experiencing huge population drain and is being called "disappearing nation" [0], Estonia is not much better, and different -stans are slowly going back to the middle ages (I personally visited Uzbekistan for 2 weeks and witnessed it with my own eyes. It's not pretty).

I'm not saying that they were thriving under Soviet Union, obviously not, but you can hardly find a former USSR republic which shows stable growth in GDP per capita, population, and, say, ease of doing business.

Ask HN: What percent of your subs are monthly/annual?
I have a browser plugin [1] that costs $2/mo or $22/yr. We have a fully-featured free trial that lasts 2 weeks, so there's no need to go for a shorter payment period in order to test drive the product. Also, it's not likely that people have a cashflow problem that makes a $22 charge burdensome.

So I figured that most people would go for the annual pricing, which saves 2 bucks (but the net amount for us is the same, due to processing fees). But fully 30 percent of our subscribers are monthly. This is much higher than I anticipated.

What have others found? I'd also be interested in hearing about how lifetime subscriptions factor into this.

Yes and that’s the rub. Previously a journalist decided what stories people should hear. Now an algorithm tuned to people’s engagement levels decides what we should see. It may have the effect of burying important stories that make people uncomfortable, which a journalist might not do. Just because people would rather not know about Yemen doesn’t mean we’re better off if people don’t know about Yemen.

Maybe something like Jupyter or plain Python with GPU enabled numpy is what you’re looking for?

Tensorflow is a library and not a language, it’s meant to be used from a host language that is Turing complete. It’s goal is to make construction of graphs of vector evaluations easier and more performant, but not really to provide a general purpose computation environment, it’s assumed you’re calling it from a general purpose computation environment.

So, if you’re using Tensorflow, you normally have general purpose computing available to you, with the option to bake your vector tasks into graphs easily and/or speed them up.

Jupyter is becoming a decent alternative to Matlab, and you have many options for running vector computations from python, with or without a GPU.
