I did a combination of earplugs and headphones playing white noise which worked pretty well. But I still had visual disturbances and had to yank the earbuds out when someone tapped on my shoulder, which was weird for both of us. Now I work remotely and love it.

Yep. The US is reasonably safe in this regard, but I’ve had credit cards skimmed a handful of times. These cases were dealt with with little more than a quick call to custom service, but had it been my debit card that was skimmed, it would’ve been bad news.

For this reason I carry only a small amount of cash (just enough for cash only bars/restaurants) and never carry my debit card. My primary payment method is credit card with an increasing percentage through Apple Pay.
This?

yeah, what use has 100% uptime if you cannot use it reasonably. sometimes I am unsure if such tweets originate from not knowing or not _wanting_ to know.
I see this pattern a lot in history. Things are bad until something worse comes along.

There's some quote about each country needing a reasonably strong enemy. Without one, the country starts trying to find enemies and conflict within.

Same thing might be happening in these mediations. By adding a bigger "enemy", the two parties probably quickly back down from trying to defend against to enemies and compromise with each other.

It's a sad state of human nature but apparently works.

Here is my 2c: don't use Chrome on Macbooks, use Safari instead.

My late 2013 top-of-the-line Macbook Pro has been recently overheating, with battery life that has become very short. My battery health indicator dipped below 79% with less than 600 charge cycles (Apple says it should last at least 1,000 before reconditioning.) I have almost started to convince myself it is time for an upgrade, but then...

In a hunch I decided to give Safari a try, and stopped using Chrome. The result? Laptop is almost always cool to the touch, battery lasts for 5 hours with my typically light use. It has been a great experience overall, highly recommended despite the costs of such a switch.

I will of course, take Marco's advise and make my laptop even more efficient with energy.
A lot less impressive when you recognize most grazing land isn't much good for anything else.
At this point it seems like it's "make more money" and "lose less money" and that's about it.
I agree with your point, but the GP's has validity too: the infrastructure to get that page to where it is read, does draw power in proportion with the amount of data it's handling.
QC is a description of how we think and perceive, necessarily, which may be product of the environment, and using a notion of the later to give a circular definition may be useful as food for thought, but nothing to talk about, really. Edit: ... unless applying or extending the theory, in which case the pan-ultimate macro scale is probably out of scope for now.
In the aggregate that data might be incredibly valuable, and valuable in a way that might not be obvious to the gatekeepers of these materials. You never know what people can do with more data until you put it out there.

But neither do the people who might do something with it, which I guess is why there's little funding for such endeavors. You need somebody with the money and conviction to make the gamble.

> Have you worked with professional translators much along the way? Most of us use and keep our own translation memories stretching into the millions of segments.

I personally haven't worked too much with translators in my research, but we built OpenNMT with Systran who employ a group of translators and linguists. We also host a yearly workshop (http://workshop-paris-2018.opennmt.net/) where many professional translator came to talk. There is a lot of interesting work on integrating translation memories and automatic systems.

> What would be the ideal training material for these models to work from?

So the curt answer is "the best type of training is more training". In practice though the best type of training is in-domain data for whatever type of problem is currently of interest.

> Do you think NMT could ever recognise the type of text to be translated and apply style and context accordingly? Displaying an element of creativity, for example, drawing from relevant contextual themes. I suspect it might do this automatically if trained widely enough?

Creativity is a slippery term, so I will avoid that (personally the models don't seem too "clever" to me). There is a lot of interest though in models that can mimic a certain style, whether that be politeness, tone, genre, or technical material. Often that means learning "knobs" to tune for these properties.
Remember - an airplane has never crashed from turbulence. When I was around 8 years old, I was on a flight whose engine blew up. We had to land using one engine.

Tell that to my knees

Almost came here with this exact same comment. Absolutely not amount of motivation or feel good thinking about my own capabilities and willingness to 'do the damn thing' can surmount the sheer agony and pain I feel after a 2 mile run (because that's the most I can bear to stand) after years of jumping out of airplanes for a living (US Military) over 12 years.

Ever have your knee shattered to pieces and fracture a femur after having a chute partially open and hitting the ground at 6ft/sec? Lemme tell you something: it's horrifying.

You know the phrase "blinding pain"? It's a kind of pain that's so severe your vision literally blurs.

You can see things, you can make out shapes, but your brain is so focused on that pain that vision rides shotgun for a bit. It's a level of pain that can (and has) induced vomiting and loss of consciousness when I so much as step the wrong way off a curb.

Don't tell me "you can do it, just put your mind to it" when my mind doesn't even have the bandwidth to register vision.

There is NO amount of "you can do it" motivational, go-getter mentality that will convince me to push through that kind of pain. Absolutely, positively and without any hesitation on the topic at hand: N-O-N-E. Heck, I stood up once to go get a cup of coffee, turned, stepped in an awkward way and turned my knee and immediately fell over in tears.

So when someone says they can't run a marathon, maybe leave it at that-they know what they're capable of better than you do.
Not really, because it’s not near any jobs.
I think "if you haven't done the training" is the operative phrase. Similarly nobody could write a novel if they hadn't learned to write, or read enough, etc. If a healthy person wants to run a marathon they will be able to by a process of training.

The original metaphor is a bit off. Anyone who puts in the effort could write fifty thousand words on the same theme or plot. Likewise anyone could complete a marathon with enough training and effort. A better comparison would be writing a novel that people would pay to read, and completing a marathon so quickly that people would pay you to do it.

While everyone can do the amateur version of these tasks not everyone can do the professional certain.

I’ve never seen a 5% rewards card for generic purchases. Does that exist?
You can fail to be against something without being for it.

I find it strange that people seem to have a problem with my question but no one but me seems to have a problem with someone simultaneously claiming that we need to treat training deaths as shrug-worthy while assuming that driverless vehicles will clearly eliminate huge numbers of deaths annually once they are out there.

This is the first suggestion I have heard that human drivers actively need to be eliminated instead of driverless vehicles being yet one more option in an increasingly diverse transportation ecosystem.

Although I no longer have a driver's license, the implication that someone might desire to outlaw human drivers someday for supposed safety reasons while simultaneously justifying accepting death by driverless vehicle seems somewhat disturbing.
Did Dell stop giving online customisation option to users? I bought my first computer in 2007 - it was a Dell Vostro laptop and if I remember correctly I had placed the order online and I could choose whether I want Windows or Linux on it (or maybe I am confusing one for the other). I think I could even make some hardware choices too.

"The regular response from people is "it is crypto money what you expect?"

Moviepass should’ve gotten wholesale prices a tenth of the ticket to make it sustainable. At the end of the day, that’s 10x more traffic to concessions etc that theatres can absorb.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it already, but, in California, find your county's health center (usually a hospital, often more than one facility).

Contact them, possibly by just going to their primary care (ideally walk-in) clinic, and asking for advice or just to be seen by a physician. Even their full price for services, for uninsured low-income individuals, will be low, and, because that's often their target demographic, they'll tend to have a high concencentration of experts familiar with things like Medi-Cal.
Web developers often don’t have a choice whether to ship bullshit or not. Hell, engineering managers and directors often probably don’t have this choice.

The single greatest feature of AMP (which I dislike with great passion, don’t get me wrong) is that it forces broken org structures to make better engineering choices. There is no negotiation. There is no “marketing director is higher on the pecking order”. There is just design constraints placed from outside of the organization that must be followed.

I think a lot of this depend on the field and context. For example in physics there are a lot of commercially available simulation tools that help with analysis of an experiment. You of course describe the approach and setup of the simulation but you can not publish/reference the source code since you are just a licensee.

There's a bunch of grazing land in the bay area. It tends to be really hilly. Not hilly like where we live, but seriously hilly.

It would be great for sequestering carbon dioxide (in the form of trees), which is really what most of it probably should be used for. Instead we're depleting the topsoil, using up all our non-renewable water, and poisoning the oceans. All for basically no reason.

Hopefully this regulation materializes as a regulation on personal transit, rather than a regulation on autonomous transit. There's no reason a self-driving car with one occupant is any less efficient than a manually-driven car with one occupant.

If everybody starts sending their kid to school in a private waymo it's going to be a disaster, but right now everybody drives themselves to work in a private car and it already is a disaster.

The Phoenix public transport director who hopes that waymo can bring people to the high-capacity bus lines and the lrt has the right idea. If the waymo (or Uber, or Lyft) app can integrate with public transit networks, that's the ideal solution. I look forward to a day where you open your ride-hailing app and you see options for "Uber all the way: $14, 18 minutes journey, pickup in 5 minutes" or "Uber+bus, $10, 20 minutes journey, pickup in 10 minutes" where the Uber+bus option syncs with the bus schedules and schedules your pickup with just enough time to catch a bus and schedules a pickup at the end of the bus segment of the journey.

Actually I really like my 2017 Macbook Air which I bought for $800. It may have old architecture but the system 'just works', mainly because of the OS (Windows 10 is far from being a decent dev platform). I primarily use it for coding, and for heavy tasks I delegate them to my PC running HyperV.

P.S. I don't really understand the obsession with getting the latest gen processors. Your main bottleneck is IO anyway if you don't do video encoding or some other CPU intensive tasks.
I'd say the grandparent comment is correct when he says that "Russinovich knew the guts of Windows better than a lot of their own engineers did".

Russinovich was on the team that re-architected Windows from the ground up for the modern era.

>A few weeks ago in Los Angeles, Microsoft technical fellow Mark Russinovich -- absolutely the world's leading authority on Windows performance and architecture -- took time to explain to developers attending PDC 2009 in Los Angeles exactly what [MinWin] is. In summary, it's a way to graft onto Windows some semblance of the architectural layering it should have had, if its architects in the 1980s had any foresight into how Windows would be used thirty years later. It enables current and future Microsoft developers to evolve new configurations of the operating system, without having to rewrite core services or worry about breaking dependencies between those services and upper-level APIs.
