I read his book, which was really good. The disturbing thing to me about it is not that this could happen on the scale of Theranos, or hoodwink so many big names: Henry Kissinger, General Mattis, George Shultz; the list goes on - but that it - or something like it - has happened in many places where I’ve worked over the past 20 years. Multiply that by the number of people who also worked there, and it starts to look more like something real than mere anecdata.

I have no doubt that it has happened before and continues to happen.

The deceit; the refusal to listen to or pay attention to actual proof; the rewarding of the guilty and the punishment of the innocent; the firing or sidelining of the overly vocal; the hell-bent tunnel vision that believes only in the billion-dollar payoff, even if it destroys the company (or people’s lives), and all the pathological rest.

I’m not sure if that says something about humans in general, or maybe even primates, or US society, or all of these.

I wonder, too, if the logical voices of dissent so necessary for real progress have been largely silenced by the tyranny of the hashtag, the mob mentality of social media (HN excepted), the attention-deficient multitudes born of television and the Internet, and the power leached away from us by mandatory binding arbitration clauses in our job, lease, rent, and just about any contract in the USA these days?

TLS stacks are dead out of the water if they don't support non-blocking I/O.

The point of my post wasn't to criticize SwiftTLS, per se, but rather to make a larger point that supporting asynchronous I/O will never become substantially easier unless and until languages provide the correct primitives. Case in point: try to refactor SwiftTLS (which otherwise may be a laudable TLS implementation) to support Swift's async/await proposal. All the headaches and compromises will say much more about the viability of async/await than about the implementation quality of SwiftTLS. Nonetheless, it's the end product (SwiftTLS, etc) that will be bear the blame for the added complexity (or lack thereof if they abstain from supporting the model).
Yes, every company is special. That doesn’t mean your company has any valid justification for being special, instead of adhering to standards that business technologies can be targeted toward. Most ways that companies are special are just ways that those companies are broken. (Calling to mind the classic “Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way” quote.)

Look at it like any other utility infrastructure: if you want your factory to hook up to the same power grid as everyone else, it’s your factory that’s got to change, not the power grid. Or do you want to spend half of every new factory bring-up winding your own three-phase-220V-to-five-phase-39.2V transformers to meet your “unique” needs?

Accents are also a class signal. Given that it’s easier to adjust your accent than to change people’s opinion on them, it’s probably worth maki g the effort to soften up the accent.
My suspicion is that it comes down to the quality of the individual programs, and likely the educators too, and what the kids are (or aren't) doing.

Keep in mind that Bing School in Palo Alto has a giant wait list, and it's not because parents are just looking for a daycare. Maybe Bing could be a decent model to try and replicate elsewhere, university research and all.
Re: We still don’t have flying cars nor self-conscious robots

But the proof of concept of auto-cars generally works. The kinks don't seem insurmountable, just a series of incremental improvements and economies of scale.

Flying cars on the other hand have some really big problems to tackle, such as noise pollution. And robots with "common sense" still seem a long ways off. There is no proof of concept that's even close.

> but unfortunately all the efforts of the 'pragmatics' one who wanted to reimplement BeOS on top of Linux failed much earlier than Haiku

> New OS are in a bad situation: those build on top of Linux doesn't seemn to attract contributors (I blame personally a lack of imagination: a kernel isn't an OS!)

I think these two statements are, effectively, the same thing. Why have we (Haiku) stayed around so long, and all the others died? Somehow we managed to accumulate enough critical mass to not have heat death. I think the novelty of having a complete system is an attractive one, rather than "just another Linux distribution, why use that?" indeed.

And then, you know, maybe it's possible that what we've been saying this entire time about having a kernel and base system optimized for GUIs instead of just throwing one on top of them might actually be the case. :-p

> but those who use their own kernel are doomed for the lack of drivers..

We're so doomed, I've been able to boot, run, and use Haiku on just about all PCs I've tested it with so far!

But yes, drivers are an issue. An issue we have mostly solved at this point, with the exception of hardware-accelerated OpenGL, but still...

People who are amazing do grow organically, with just a little PR work. People who are fun to watch turn random introductions into an audience.

You get constant growth for free with <pick your promotion channel here>.... As long as your content is converting watchers to subscribers a low constant growth is plenty to seed the network.

Streamers are not “doing simple things to build their audience” because they don’t really want an audience: they want validation. Whatever trickle of exposure they get is enough to signal to them that they’re not converting people because they’re not winning anyone over. You don’t need a lot of data points for that to become very clear.

The only way to break out of that is experimentation. And a lot of streamers aren’t really.

Not "Old English", but the British English accent prevalent around the time of the founding of the United States.

Old English is ~500AD, Beowulf, and a completely different language to anything ever spoken in the United States.

Sort of. I've been making art for a long time, went to school for it.

People want to see themselves in whatever you produce for them. It's that simple. They want something they identify with.

Artists and content developers can have more fun playing with it because they have different meaning spaces - they see connections across content that is still self identity, it's just across a different set of things. It can be competitive and draining though, so one must use their energy wisely.

Crowds can be fickle in general, so it can as well be exhausting staying plugged into them, producing just for them, without any way of receiving meaningful feedback.

It's not that people are narcissists at heart, it's just that they don't want to pay attention to things to things that don't make sense to them on any level. That's pretty normal.
Goatse, much like its counterparts are to me a litmus test of your internet culture / age.

Usually there’s no interface to addressing such problems.

Interacting with the cultures of some companies is like trying to treat the mental illness of someone in a dissociative fugue state. You might have a solution that fits how things are on the inside—but how are you going to even get through to them to communicate that, when they can’t hear or see you and are instead lost in their own little world?
Me neither; and such a place does not (yet) exist, and to my knowledge humans have never truly created such a place since the dawn of agriculture, if not earlier. It's entirely in the realm of theory, for now. I'll even admit: we barely have the information-technology today with which to conduct business as quickly, frequently and frictionlessly as it could theoretically need to be conducted in such a place.

In places where there is not only a monopoly on the use of unprovoked force, but where the same entity also monopolizes everything else, there is another collection of people who eloquently state why that was a bad idea.

If you're wondering what is the difference between an area with all markets free; and an area whose governments merely don't call themselves as such, and tend to compete via (expensive) violence instead of advertising - then this tome should provide a much more eloquent description (albeit as theoretical as ever) than I could ever hope to achieve: http://www.daviddfriedman.com/The_Machinery_of_Freedom_.pdf

So, let's say you manage to update your client's processes to the ones that best fit the SW you are selling. Eventually, the time for upgrading will come. Magically the specification for the new system will be: "it has to work exactly like the last one", and the last one will naturally happen to be yours.

Who wins? The customer? Maybe (how clumsy it may be, he now has a stable, supported process, after all). The vendor? A thousand times this: he has successfully locked-in yet another client, foraging on its inertia.

Martha Gellhorn is an amazing person. Particular impressive is this portion of her life as summarized by wikipedia (also covered in the article at townandcountrymag)

"Later, from Germany, she reported on the rise of Adolf Hitler. In the spring of 1938 (months before the Munich Agreement), she was in Czechoslovakia. After the outbreak of World War II, she described these events in the novel A Stricken Field (1940). She later reported the war from Finland, Hong Kong, Burma, Singapore, and England. Lacking official press credentials to witness the Normandy landings, she hid in a hospital ship bathroom, and upon landing impersonated a stretcher bearer; she later recalled, "I followed the war wherever I could reach it." She was the only woman to land at Normandy on D-Day on June 6, 1944. She was also among the first journalists to report from Dachau concentration camp after it was liberated by US troops on April 29, 1945."
I don't see Go as a panacea for opening up libraries for use. You're still going to see languages that can export C interfaces for that. It's going to be C, C++, and Rust that are likely to persist as the languages of choice for massively consumable libraries. As long as they can export a C interface, you can get low (or no) overhead interop. Go's biggest disadvantage is that it ships by default with a runtime.

I hope I'm understanding your comment correctly.

Ask HN: Have any of you left a startup that was selling snake oil?
Hi all,

I am in an interesting situation. I thought I'd ask you all to see how you've handled similar situations.

A few months ago, I joined an 'AI' start-up. Most of my experience lined up well with the company vision, and I thought 'why not?'. They gave me what I was looking for in terms of salary and have funding to run for the next year.

The company is really just a consulting firm that deploys custom solutions for clients: this is totally fine by me, because it's really interesting and fun. But, the CEO is going to investors pitching the fact that we've built/are building some deep learning engine that can be applied to all problems. Investors are starting to do due-diligence on us, and I've repeatedly told him that there is no 'engine'; we're a consulting company. All problems we face are unique, and we provide a solution. There's no magic ML algorithm that works for all problems. This logic falls on deaf ears.

I feel that it's best to move on from here eventually - I may give it another few months to see what happens.

Any of you have any interesting takes/similar stories? I'd be curious to hear how you handled it.
Nope. I simply mean that it is not a fraud, and can provide a legitimate service in the form of a new abstraction implemented in software.
Indel mutation rates aren't high enough, and the number of cells screened for mutations is too low for this explanation to suffice.
No, because if the underlying phenomenon happened 20% of the time, that’s what you want your model to predict. The point of the model is to describe reality as accurately as possible. So a model that predicts a particular outcome to happen 80% of the time, and the outcome actually does happen 80% of the time, isn’t any better or worse than a model that predicts an outcome to happen 20% of the time that happens 20% of the time.
tl;dr 3133 (control + treatment) tennessee lower-income children were checked after their pre-k year and third grade year. (Treatment children were able to attend the TN pre-k program.) After third grade, the treatment children scored .012 standard deviations lower than the control group for math, .009 worse in science, but similarly for reading and misbehavior. The treatment group also had a higher rate of special education enrollment than control: 13% vs 10.6%.

A single human doesn't scale, a work force of multiple humans can.

With something this sensitive I would be very wary of machine classification.
Oh wow. That's super interesting. I see how they go around the problems I mentioned. Their AI don't need to do any crazy maneuvering because it's really stealthy so it's avoiding any sort of dog fights. All the actual fast maneuvering is done by the munitions, which already has enough intelligence to hit most targets. Brilliant. Totally not how I imagined the problem would be solved but my thinking simply removed the pilot and replaced it with an AI whereas Boeing moved the game to a different field with a different set of rules.
> We can't predict the future.

What tosh. Of course we can predict the future... and sometimes our prediction is correct.

Data compression works by modelling the data stream and predicting the next symbol based on that model, and then recording in an efficient way the degree to which the prediction was correct. The comparison between the prediction and the actual outcome is the key point -- just as it is in the article.
> drone AI that can out-think a human;

But doesn't this assume that there will be some sort of 1v1 matchup between the pilots and the drones? I don't see any reason why this should be true, as the drones should be able to be produced much cheaper. So sure, maybe I human pilot could always shoot down a single drone, but how would they go against a swarm of 50 drones all perfectly coordinating with each other.
