Six tips for effective learning
This exact incident has happened to me in Bay Area. That too in the new 'express pool' ride (there were other passengers in the ride)

I had to send a few emails back and forth before the issue was quietly resolved in my favor.
Excerpt:

"Computer and mathematical science occupations, which require skills that are often mentioned in conversations about skills shortages, do have a relatively low unemployment rate, at 2.3 percent, but have seen abysmal wage growth, at less than 1 percent over the last year. No widespread shortage there."
I'm not even particularly affected by the issue in general. When I was reading my state law and found it referenced standards you can't publicly access, I was unreasonably peeved. I wrote letters to my representatives and congressmen about it but didn't expect much.

I felt endorphins reading this today because this is the first time I've heard of the government not fucking something up in months. It's a Dumb and Dumber "So you're saying there's a chance" kind of satisfying moment.

I'm hopeful Disney & friends finally get the middle finger in 2023 on copyright extension.
This is super cool. Is someone working on this and making progress?
the real thing is that engineering is much harder and more expensive than software engineering.
I think you're confused. When poets talk about "enrichment" they mean spiritual enrichment.
Haha, downvoted because no one in the West gives a flying fuck about people leaving developing countries and the impact on those economies. They do care about dem too many immigrants though. It's puzzling.
Do you really find a benefit much past ~60wpm? Unless you're just transcribing, I would think compositional speed is the limiting factor.

Won’t the time stamps on the image metadata differ from the trip? Uber could automatically review every cleaning fee. Drivers caught scamming could be terminated. Ten lines of code could eliminate the problem instantly.
I use an app that I wrote, meditations, in order to break down goals into daily habits: https://github.com/ioddly/meditations

e.g. "I want to run a marathon" becomes a daily "Exercise" habit. It's good for both progress and logging; now if I want to know what program I was running on June 28, 2015 for example I just filter for Exercise and go back to June 2015.

It was originally a Trello board so it's got an obviously kanban-ish look to it, but it's got things built in to collect things like time spent on habits overall, streaks.

I'm still working on the best flow for longer-term projects and "negative habits" (i.e. losing weight, not compulsively using the internet).
Still you are probably male, white, born in Western Europe or US, etc.

I found even some little things like how people style their hair, if they use face masks to keep their face clean, if they paid for teeth whitening/straightening in the past, can make a difference. In some regards that is attitute, true. But the kind you can't really learn growing up in the countryside for instance, or can't afford from the pay you get in some countries.

One of the best programmers I know has even some black teeth. He'll never be invited to a meeting where financially sound contracts are made.
Great comment. Circuits are particularly unhelpful
in describing quantum algorithms because they usually indicate a fixed problem size, and they do not provide an insight into entanglement, one of the fundamental “resources” of QC.

We need new representations and much better abstractions to get away from the low-level thinking we are currently promoting.
That explains the relation between Alzheimer and sleeping disorders.
The standard answer would be that if someone already making $10m/year considers increasing their work ethic by 40%, they are almost certainly doing so for reasons other than need more spendable cash...
Late answer: your answer is quite level-headed I think.

I would say that first that I never said anything about gender-specific, or if i did it was a mistake.. My point is that every human (men or women) has a potential of violence that can be unleashed in many situations. This potential is the kind of thing that look "unnatural" "scary" or "bad" when you see it and don't feel it but feel naturalyou experience it.

Granted there's not many data / source in my answer. My point is just that I feel a bit weird when I see a lot of articles like this who talk about violence being an "unnatural" tendency of the humans when I think it is a very natural tendency (which we constantly try to make disappear in our peaceful societies, which is why it might look unnatural nowadays.).
West cares about individuals, not about communities or nations or states. You see crying baby - you help. You see someone hardly making a living - you invite them and pay more. Who gives a fuck about how it affects the whole society.
> Compare for example searching for animal pictures using voice search versus going to the search engine, typing out the term, clicking on "images"... The first is much easier and teaches instant gratification, while the second teaches perseverance and comes with a greater sense of accomplishment.

I find this comparison hilarious. I've spent my early childhood without a computer, so if I wanted to see a picture of an animal I probably had to open a book and maybe even go to the library to get one. So I really doubt any of those methods u mention really teach anything.
It depends. You describe working for a "remote allowed" company.

My advice for any engineers that want to do the remote work thing and still have career advancement is find a "remote only" company.

Everything you said is true for larger orgs who have physical presences. For small shops that have developed remote-only cultures most of those negatives are moot.

If I were ever looking for work again I would only entertain offers from remote-only companies unless I was getting desperate.
Yep. You can walk into any Chevy dealer nationwide right now and walk out in an hour with a Bolt for under $35k. There are 114 of them sitting in inventory within 25 miles of my house, according to Chevy's web site.
Actually I'm going to check them out. Thanks.

Last I checked for that was Wordpress and they paid like $1500/month if I remember correctly.
Neither does Intel's advisory (which is something we have come to expect from Intel - complete nonchalant disregard for details/quality/security/customers).

They could specify whether I'm good with AMT turned off or they went extra stupid and AMT processes packets even when it's off. My bet is on the later because otherwise they'd say to disable AMT otherwise. My next processor will be AMD.
Just like everything north of New York City is “upstate”.
I breezed over the article but I did see longevity mentioned.

My parents are in their mid 70s and they are more active and independent than their parents were. Even my Dad sick with COPD is quite active.

My Dad's father died at 52 his mother at 64, both were smokers. My mother's parents lived to age 96 for her dad and late 80s for her mother. Neither smoked both ate mainly vegetables, small portions, but were not vegetarian.

I can recall my mother's parents being in a retirement home in their early 70s. But contrast that with my own parents the difference is quite dramatic.

I can see it with my own generation (Gen X) many do not have kids, neither do I. And it seems Millenials the "childfree trend is a thing.
The projection matrix transforms the 3D world into a 3D world in screen space. Two of the dimensions are the screen coordinates, and the third is depth into the screen. The depth is used for Z-buffering (hiding the stuff in back), and for fog and focus effects.
Or promote having kids. Just think if all of those money and propaganda for migrants was used for families with kids.
True about 60% I'd said. You will be surprised though how two different people, one white-male the other asian-female will get offered for the very same job with the very same skills.

They do that for most of their parts. For example, they also source batteries from Samsung.

That's pretty empirically false.
That's literally robbing the dead. Thanks to your grandfather and hundreds of thousands like him Europe as I know it exists (though there are plenty of forces at work to destroy it again). It's pretty sad. I visited a number of war grave sites a few years go to help someone locate a family member and I was struck with how meticulously all the graves were kept, they looked as through they had been made a few weeks earlier. Flowers on many of them. Sad to see how your granddad ended up forgotten and cheated like that.

Growing up in Canada (now living in usa) every student was propagandized about how population growth was bad, etc.

Now we are told how much immigration is indispensable i.e. more people are needed.

Were we lied to?
That might not happen. Microsoft deprecated OpenGL over a decade ago, but they still have to support it. Apple only has about 10% market share in desktops and laptops. They don't want to make the "Not available on Mac" problem worse.
First of all, that's pretty clearly not actually true, if you bother to think about it. And secondly, even if it were true, I don't see how it's relevant.
Only if the photo was taken before the trip commenced. A photo taken after the trip ended would be less contestable on the basis of time.

I'm not talking about IRC or newspapers though. I don't care any IRC and me posting something on Facebook is clearly not even remotely close to a newspaper running an article. I've already got my own opinion on the matter, I was wondering if anyone here knew of any relevant legislation or precedent in the matter.
> By exposing them to something that doesn't react to the laws of physics, I fear they get a wrong first impression of the world

By this logic, "cartoon physics" are also a big no-no, because they teach kids that gravity only acts if you look down and notice that you have no support. Next thing you know you'll have kids running off ledges and expecting to float.

And I don't see how a mouse is more "physical" and "logical" than a touchscreen. On a touch screen, the pointer is right under your finger where you touch. The mouse is this strange thing which does action at a distance, through the intermediation of this "cursor" which has no correspondent in the physical world. Which is why I presume it's easy for a toddler to understand a touch-screen unlike a mouse which requires some pretty advanced hand-eye coordination and mental models.

> Nguyen, who is 10, said she has used one before - once - but the clunky desktop computer/monitor/keyboard/mouse setup was too much for her. "It was slow," she recalled, "and there were too many pieces."

> Why the explosion now? For decades, attractive, interactive graphic interfaces have been available on home computers. But young children’s access to these was limited by both their cost [with the cost of hardware, software, and home internet contributing to the “digital divide” (Norris, 2001)] and by the fine motor skills and eye-hand coordination required to manipulate a keyboard and mouse. With the advent of touch screens on less expensive devices – smartphones and tablets – these financial and developmental barriers have been reduced: By their first birthdays, most children can become adept at touching, swiping and pinching on the screen. As a result, children’s access to touch screens has outpaced what we know about its effects – for better or worse – on early development.

I'm not saying we should be giving tablets to toddlers. I don't know about that. But not doing this because of concerns about being able to distinguish between physical and virtual seems pure speculation at this moment, especially when we have as precedent fantastical stories that parents typically say to kids, which are also full of physics defying stories.
I think what they meant was "we don't have the resources to prosecute this sort of crime in light of all the more serious crime we have to deal with in Miami."
Telling that hundreds of thousands of people will wait for a Model 3 while Bolts sit on the lot.
Specifically I'd suggest sticking to OpenGL 4.x and ES 3.x when learning OpenGL. Even OpenGL 4.4+ brought a lot of changes that should be used instead of what existed before (bindless resources, texture/buffer storage, persistently mapped buffers, etc.)
Right,what is needed is a management OS(think efi-like). Also,kvm+ipmi[1] is used for that mostly,not ME.

The article is quite interesting, it sums up many numbers and projections I had read in several places.

But there are 2 other interesting factors to an aging society that they did not mention:

- what will the retirees (~60+ y/o) do with their time? Not a small issue, I'm not thinking about economical consequences but simply social consequences & people's well-being. For some people, their job means A LOT, and once they retire, they don't know what to do. My dad is an example: R&D engineer, worked a lot until he retired, nowadays he just roams around the house (a sad view).

- what is going to be the impact of such a huge number of older people on the moral views & technical progress? As you know, many older people grow more & more conservative ("stuck in their ways") or even reactionary as they age. This creates a serious number of potential issues with social progress and probably technological as well. Older people are often "left behind" by new technologies & social changes. This was not a major problem when they were a small minority, but once they'll become a not so small minority, their voices will be heard much more. I wonder if this could not lead to some stagnation or at least a slowdown in some areas/subjects (things like gay marriage, acceptance of alternative sexualities, etc.), or -at worst- a throw-back in some areas (look how HARD sexual freedom -in the broadest sense- has been hit those last 10 to 15 years, will you expect conservative/reactionary people to hold liberal views on that?).

Are you familiar with the Center for Open Science? http://cos.io
Yes refusal to share profits is one issue. Also,
the "skills shortage" is partly due to companies absolute refusal to train on the job, combined with the explosion of tech stacks and tools that no one person can keep on top of. Even confining yourself to one niche is difficult these days as the niches grow to encompass data, browsers, admin, and ops.

Many places sit on a job req for six months to find a unicorn, when they could have hired a smart person off the bat and let them study for a month.
Just learn the fundamentals in a platform-agnostic way and you’ll be set for life:

- 3D geometry (lines, planes, implicit and parametric surfaces)

- basic splines (Bezier, Hermite, maybe NURBS)

- matrix transformations

- rotation via quaternions

- projective 3D geometry

- shading (diffuse, Phong, etc)

- advanced tricks (shadows, reflections, etc)

Once you nail down these topics, the rest is just learning the specific API quirks (memory model, synchronization, etc), be it OpenGL, Metal, DirectX, Vulkan, or whatever comes next in ten years.
ME is like that except it ships with the CPU.
I disagree with her personally. If you expect the british version to be like the American, you'll be sorely disappointed.

To me, the American version reminds me of everything I hate about drunk people in a bar - overly loud, boisterous people trying to play up their drunken state thinking it is cool to do - while telling me a story. Badly.

The British version reminds me of someone telling me a story. They know about the story, but don't remember the details, and the drunkeness is getting in the way. The basic description is correct: no host. To me, it is more intimate and less "sober person making fun of the drunk in the room" because of the setup.

I can't stand many drunk people when I'm sober - and perhaps I'd enjoy the American version better if I were drunk. It could also be that the American version features a different sort of drunk - or more like people that are acting drunk because of societal expectations. The humor is also different between the two nations: I've preferred british humor for years, well before I moved to Europe from the US. Sometimes it is quite hilariously depressing, sure, but that is part of the charm.

I'll also add that the stigma against drinking alone doesn't seem to be the same as it is in the US. For whatever reason, someone drinking alone in the US basically means you are an alcoholic, not that you are too poor to go to bars, that you work weird hours, or that you have few friends to drink with but occasionally would like a drink. Drink alone once a week means alcoholism, getting smashed with friends means you are social. If you have this sort of bias, seeing someone drink alone (when they obviously aren't - camera crew and all) is probably going to be more depressing.
I'm not so sure "confused" is exactly the term. "Hackers and Painters" was largely about mastery, less about wealth, and in many traditions, mastery of craft is spiritual enrichment.
Electronic cooling? Do you mean Peltier elements? They have a 'hot' and a 'cold' side, and their capacity is handily outstripped by any modern CPU. If that worked we would be using Peltier coolers to make quiet PCs today, after all, that problem is only 1/5th as complex.
I created the missing interpreter!

It's hackish and hard to read and full of bugs, but it can run FizzBuzz, so Rockstar is a real language now. If the pull request gets accepted I'll add "certified Rockstar developer" to my CV.
I'm honestly no expert on the field but here's my take on it.

What you described is also covered by the Dunning-Kruger effect. From the Wikipedia page:

"the miscalibration of the incompetent stems from an error about the self, whereas the miscalibration of the highly competent stems from an error about others."

Seeing the effect in visual presentation (as a graph) might also aid you in understanding the above.

I got an autism diagnosis in 2017 (and my partner a week ago at age 35 and 36 respectively). According to DSM-5 (in effect since 2013 IIRC), asperger syndrome and all other previous specific autism disorders are superseded as it falls under the larger umbrella of ASD (autism spectrum disorder).

You described: "but without the emotional or decision impairment that otherwise comes with Autism." Someone who has all the traits of what was previously known as asperger syndrome sans what you described can still get an ASD diagnosis.
This is not achieved by the rare "outsider art" sale. I'm not sure why you have a problem with my original post, or if you even read it.
It would be interesting to compare the experience with a recent and updated Android phone, with the Google Keyboard. My bet is that Google's one is better at it, and improves rapidly.

How about this for a fix?

1. The driver must file a complain with video evidence within 5 minutes of the ride ending. The video evidence should be recorded via Uber app, hence we can mostly trust the timestamp.

2. The passenger entering a vehicle will look around for dirt. If they find it, they make a recording (using Uber app), within first 5 minutes of the ride. Or just refuse the ride.

Thus the driver cannot pin dirt created after the ride on the earlier passenger (5 minute limit), and they cannot pin earlier dirt on the passenger (passenger will have reported it). Technically the driver could still smear the car in the space of those 5 minutes after the ride, but that still narrows the window dramatically. And no extra overhead for the mainstream use case (no dirt).

As an extra, if the passenger is worried, they can snap a picture/video while exiting the car, as the ride ends (also using the app). Presumably the user is no longer in the vehicle, as evident in the video, and any accusations of them having vomited in the car would not be credible.

Did I miss anything?

Dunno, or maybe just require dashcam evidence...
The greed and irresponsibility is boundless. They could set aside 10 billion and have excellent security. 1 billion could have bought thousand phds digging through their processors and I bet they could dig out boneheaded flaws like Spectre.

Out of band management is fine, but have it completely disabled by default, have it run on co-processor optimized for security, not speed, in language optimized for security, not speed and when it's on have it filter all packets that aren't signed to unique secret key. Basic stuff.
Cool! Chile looks like an interesting country - you can pick a climate that suits your fancy... but in practice, how does that work out? Are there differences (besides the weather) between north and south? Did you speak Spanish when you went? Have you written about your experiences?
It certainly says a lot about marketing and mass psychology. But then again, anyone who will pre-order any kind of product is a self-identifying irrational economic actor. There's no accounting for them.
More population is bad for ecological reasons.

More population is vital for economic reasons.

Its two competing philosophies. (i.e. Do the financially practical things for an individual/country vs. the wisest thing for the collective species)
If humans were rational economic actors, we wouldn’t have exhaustive behavioral studies on how to nudge their decisions towards more positive outcomes.
I've met (teaching) too many teens that can't really use a computer. The procedural and hierarchical structure abstractions, even the desktop metaphor is lost on them. Idk if there's much of a future for widespread general purpose computing. The situation is understandable, as it's way more difficult to get the gist of how your system works nowadays than 20-30 years ago, and they're really using mobile paradigms that don't expect you to think about it, but I don't think it's a good prospect.
