Adding to the other replies explaining why it's not hypocritical, I have an example. Consider section 5.2.4 of Apple's App Store Review Guidelines https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#int...

> 5.2.4 Apple Endorsements: Don’t suggest or infer that Apple is a source or
> supplier of the App, or that Apple endorses any particular representation
> regarding quality or functionality.

Apple definitely infers and suggests and even explicitly states that Apple is the supplier of their own apps. This clearly violates section 5.2.4. But Apple does not have to follow the rules that apply to third party developers because they're not third party developers. They're first party developers.
The example is interesting (a suggestion to contact the organizer of an event you're running late to), and supports my suspicion that much of the "smartness" ascribed to modern devices boils down to lots of hand-crafted pattern-response rules. Pay no attention to the programmers behind the curtain.
A friend who makes things for a living, once went on a wonderful rant about how "just", especially after "you" (can't you just...), must be one of the rudest words in English.

The gist was that just, used like this, often implies that the speaker not only knows how to accomplish the solution, but can't be bothered to do it themselves. At the same time, they don't see the difficulties in the problem, so won't value a good solution if one is made.

I thought it was a keen observation, and have since tried to think again before using "just".
TL;DR

The researchers divided 500,000-plus cases into four categories:
male doctors treating men;
male doctors treating women;
female doctors treating men;
and female doctors treating women.

“All of those are statistically indistinguishable except for male doctor–female patient,”
AMD's memory controller has worse compatibility compared to Intel's. AMD's 1st Gen Ryzen was known to have issues with Hynix dies.

Remember: DDR4 goes straight to the CPU these days. I'm fairly certain that motherboard makers can make a simple wire connection between the DDR4 pins and the CPU itself without much issue.

https://community.amd.com/thread/217871

The AMD Community knows to avoid Hynix and to buy Samsung. Hynix did improve with some BIOS updates (in particular: increasing V_soc voltage to 1.1 and other tricks). Update your BIOS if you have any issues.

Zen+ dies have better DDR4 compatibility.
Charlotte NC and Houston TX have had a similar if not higher population growth rate compared to major west cost and north east cities, where their housing prices have remained below the national average.

The reason why cities where tech locates in are so expensive is the lack of low cost new housing which comes from the fact that all land prices in a reasonable commutable distance are already very high. While it's bad for the environment, greenfield sprawl is the only true success we've seen in constructing affordable housing.
This is in the context of all of Manhattan. Midtown is just one neighborhood amongst dozens.

Where were you when Walmart was the worst monopolist in town? Before that it was Kmart, then Sears. This is an overplayed tune.
It does, however, require supporting it, and those are engineering resources that could be spent elsewhere.
I was wondering the same thing. It would be nice if he also asked for people's experience with riding bikes, and compared all three factors (gender, experience, chain attachment). I'm wondering if there is a relationship between experience with riding bikes and this non-standard design

Edit: And age. Did all of the front attachers cluster in a particular age range as well?
I wonder what the details of the computer vision tracking are. I am thinking its simple color tracking which has challenges under lighting and contrast with other colors. Object detection using deep learning could make the tracking more robust.
Love the left-right arrow key shortcuts here.
I think there are two flawed assertions here. One is that the non-privileged can even afford to attempt what you're suggesting without putting themselves or their families at immediate risk. You cannot drop your two jobs in the city and take your kids out of kindergarten to drive off toward "cheap real estate" (which you also can't afford, anyway) in a car you may or may not have, using gas you also can't afford without a payday loan.

If you can afford to make that kind of move, you're more privileged than many.

If you can do it and it fails, can you afford to come back and try to re-start your previous city life? Then you're even more privileged than the first subset of people. Those living paycheck to paycheck can't just shove off for greener pastures in today's climate, period, and the few who can would prefer not to take the risk because failure is just too stressful.

The second flawed assertion is that your generation has more money than your grandmother's generation. You might have more dollar bills in your bank account, but they're worth less than ever before and "Real Wages" for the lower and middle class have been flat or falling for decades.

Now, HN surely has a concentration of workers who live outside of this phenomenon and have experienced increasing wages and live upper-class lifestyles, but hardly true of today's "generations" as a whole.
> Depreciation and utilization rates need to be incorporated.

That's tough to do, since we don't know either one. I suspect there's also a (perhaps incorrect) assumption that an unused auto-car will be "just sitting there" rather than moving, in which case utilization is, effectively, 100%.

That's not possible with a human driver in at least the case of a long one-way trip. However, with auto-cars, this could end up merely increasing the capital cost at the expense of unpaid/empty trip cost.

The extra cost is something I mentioned in my latency/jitter comment, wrt cheaper parking.

> $5.38/hr which is not all that far from what Uber drivers net

I didn't check your arithmetic, but, if so, it's is quite far from the fair/livable wage of $15/hr that at least I've been assuming for this conversation.

The fact that rideshare services are currently, effectively, paying much less is certainly an indication that even that may not be enough to lure people away from ownership.
This is a hard question. There are certain people who are predisposed to this type of thinking, and the YouTube auto play algorithm does seem to funnel people to these types of content (likely due to high engagement). But banning him from the platform plays perfectly into Jones'narrative that he is fighting the shadowy forces that control media. In a way, it almost legitimizes him to his audience.

Oh hey look: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/hicrc/firearms-research/guns-an...

So: Switzerland vs "the United States and across high-income countries"; Switzerland vs "data from 26 developed countries from the early 1990s"; Switzerland vs "across 50 states over a ten-year period (1988-1997)"; Switzerland vs "across states, 2001-2003"; Switzerland vs "In high gun states, LEOs are 3 times more likely to be murdered than LEOs working in low-gun states."

So. It is pretty simple: Switzerland, as in basically every other aspect of its existence, is an outlier.

Social science is not the same thing as mathematical theory, I grant you, and so what is axiomatic in the world is not necessarily as tidy as what is axiomatic in the middle of proving a theorem.

Nevertheless: the evidence is clear that more guns lead to more shootings. The evidence is overwhelmingly clear on this common-sense point, and there's no particularly compelling counterexample since, again, Switzerland is quite unlike the United States in many ways.

So: it is an axiom that more guns lead to more shootings. Except, perhaps, for the Swiss.
The query is simply very badly written. Who makes a left join of a 5b rows table to a smaller table and at the same time expects a distinct from the “left” table??? If the distinct is important to solve the problem without expecting the join to return “true” then why have a join at first place???
There is something else to keep in mind which is that the government can evade the 1st amendment by pressuring companies to take action against speech it doesn’t like.

“Hostile environment” laws around workplace conduct are a good example of this; the strict interpretation of the first amendment might not allow the government to directly regulate such speech by employees, but the threat of EEOC lawsuits can compel companies to fire or discipline employees. I’m not sure how much this truly happens but I’ve seen some legal people on twitter talk about it. E.g. http://www2.law.ucla.edu/volokh/hostile.htm
Duplication is a form of ECC (admittedly a bad one). If I write everything 3 times, I can correct from any single error, but I will erroneously correct on two errors. If you're limited to duplication, you'd want four copies for 1 error correction and 2 error detection.
> Victory at chess was at one time considered to be the indicator of the emergence of true 'intelligence' in computing.

I would disagree with this characterization. I believe at the time, it was (a) a problem that a machine had not yet conquered, (b) a problem that it seemed feasible that a machine might conquer, and (c) a problem that, once conquered, would point the way to general artificial intelligence.

I would point at (c) as the assumption that proved to be erroneous. Deep Blue was clever algorithmic and hardware engineering (with a healthy budget) but led to... what?

AlphaGo is a fundamentally different approach, which shows signs of being more adaptable.

Point being, that winning a game is not sufficient evidence that a given approach will scale to winning all games, much less generalized intelligence.

To put it in terms of the fallacy I read in an article linked on HN (paraphrased), 'The public assumes that if a machine can perform a task that humans can perform, the machine must be human-like, and therefore able to perform all tasks that humans can perform.'

But in the same way that we use rendering tricks to go beyond-state-of-hardware-art in graphics rendering (by abusing hidden limitations), so do we often build ml systems.

I believe the most optimistic point against me was the slide in this year's GTC keynote pointing to the "Cambrian explosion" in the diversity of ml approaches this time around.
You're not answering jeffdavis's question. The answer is "drug cartels", which is jeffdavis's point. They aren't just some generic cartels; they're specifically drug cartels.

But you have a bit of a point, too. If you have tons of time and no money, there are a fair number of ways you can earn some money outside the law. Drugs are the most profitable currently, but if they were made legal, the action would probably move to other kinds of illegal activity.
I use Daysoft [1], they're their own brand of contacts, but by the inventor of the daily disposable, and I've used them for years and have been great. They're UK based so all you're required to do to "prove" prescription is check a box. No need to submit anything for prescription (since this isn't required by UK law, there's nothing to stop you buying contacts from anywhere in the UK). They're also <$20 for 30 lenses.

I strongly disagree with this based on personal experience. I regularly met people I was smarter than in medical school who _consistently_ out performed me. And the reason was simple: They were _extremely_ diligent, hard-working, motivated, and professional. Among other valuable lessons I learned that people vastly overestimate the role of intelligence in just about every aspect of life. It can give you sorts of advantages in life, but the majority of success is still chalked up to grit, persistence, motivation -- and the knowledge that results from it.
I’ve also encountered friends at lunch using mobile crypto wallets to split the bill. “Can I just send you some dai?”
Woz got Apple off the ground and gave them their "magic seed", but he did not and could not bring it to such incredible business success. I doubt he would've wanted to. I think nearly everyone on HN still recognizes the amazing contributions he's made to computing.
What if someone argued that killing food animals is murder and must be due to hate, and wanted a youtube channel about grilling meats to be taken down due to a TOS violation.

The problem with the whole idea of hate speech (which I think is a foolish idea) is that it classifies certain ideas as abhorrent. Ideas cannot be abhorrent, only actions can be.

If ideas were abhorrent, than we would all be guilty just for considering them, even if we decide for now to reject them. Not sure why you would assume that anyone holds non-provisional, permanent beliefs. That's just not how human consciousness works.

Actions can be harassing, inappropriate, etc. But someone simply publishing a private channel that others can encounter only through voluntary choices is not harassing.

Content platforms have the perverse incentive of appealing to society's moral leaders (these days usually politicians). We should resist the idea of legitimizing platform level censorship of content, and instead insist upon the higher standard of enforcing conduct guidelines. If a user harasses other users, that's a problem. If a user self-publishes opinions that are simply expressed as opinions, we should not view that as a problem unless the world we idealize is one in which views not held by moral leaders are always considered abhorrent.
> The sole advantage is that it's a lot of PCIe lanes for the money, so it can make sense for storage builds that want to address a lot of NVMe, or GPU compute builds that need very little CPU horsepower.

That's what I was thinking. The 1900x looks useful for quad-GPU Redshift rendering setups.

Its certainly not "mainstream". The 1920x / 2920x is far better bang for your buck. But the price from AMD scales very well. If you're willing to spend bigger bucks on cooling, the 2990WX is great. But 250W TDP is going to be a tough-one to design around.

Custom-cooling is probably the answer. Enermax's TR4 AIO turned out to be all sorts of awful, unfortunately. And Noctua's Air coolers cap out at 180W TDP designs.
There are startups in the midwest, but it's very hard to get funding here: Exec teams have to spend a lot of time traveling to raise money. Still, there are sectors where the midwest is a clear competitive advantage: You can build a biotech startup working on agriculture in California, but if you need to hire crop scientists and test equipment in farms, you are better off in a midwestern metro, 45 minutes away from large corn and soybean operations.

You might want a small office in Boston or San Francisco too though, just to cut exec travel to see investors.

I'm really against the idea of having a uniform shape for all apps, it makes it harder to quickly locate them.
People on HN frequently proclaim that we need self-driving cars now, now, now!! to prevent thousands of deaths caused by car accidents every day—even if it involves "breaking a few eggs" in the short term.

Meanwhile, I feel like those very same people would be very reluctant to "play the sexism card", even if it meant that thousands of women's lives could be saved, and even though this is a problem that has been pointed out and studied for a long time[1], and that it's potentially much easier to correct our biases with better training than it is to approach general AI with technology.

I really wish these trends were reversed.

I think they mean "imply" rather than "infer", don't they? Inferring is drawing a conclusion: you imply something, and I infer your meaning.
The problem of course being that the "brain capital" in those areas doesn't compare to Boston, which has more universities in a small area than anywhere else.

Isn't the Unix join essentially doing an inner join? Why is the original SQL doing a left join while the text processing with Unix join is doing an inner join?

Yes, the left join will scan the whole table. Left join means to return all the rows from the left hand side table. It won't use the index.

Inner join with index is way faster than left join.

The use case is pretty straightforward; TFA says that the referenced columns are both indexed and the runtime is a function of how MariaDB executes that simple query. Do you have anything concrete to offer in terms of optimizing "storage patterns" in this case that the OP has missed?

I'm all for optimizing for minimal resource usage, but if plugging $200 worth of RAM into the machine allowed the original query to run in an acceptable timeframe, that may well easily offset the hours of analysis and transformation that resulted in the shorter runtime. Unless, of course, we're more concerned with engaging in a performative defense of our arbitrarily self-bestowed credentials as "engineers".

I was arguing against the idea that Amazon is unchallenged. I wasn't calling those companies startups.

There aren't/won't be many startups that compete with Amazon as a general retailer because it would take unthinkable amounts of time and money to have access to the inventory they have. It's like asking if there are any oil startups challening Exxon.
In my experience, the only people in New England who call it "Taxachusetts" are the same people who would use the phrase "On the free side of the NH line."

I grant you that oversimplification can be a problem.

However, I would argue that we're not particularly oversimplifying here. https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/hicrc/firearms-research/guns-an... sums up the overwhelming amount of literature demonstrating the obvious point I'm making quite nicely.

Social science is not the same thing as a pure mathematical theorem, so in that sense, an axiom in the social sciences is not as tidy as an axiom in a mathematical context.

Nevertheless, I think the weight of evidence makes pretty clear that more guns === more shootings. I'm willing to compromise and say that it is not technically an axiom, but instead a well-established fact, if that makes you feel any better.

But I think the far greater danger we face is people obfuscating simple truths because their political agendas require it. Rather than just letting "more guns === more shootings" slide, we're getting into an extended back and forth here, that kiiiinda obscures the fact that the overwhelming amount of evidence is on my side.

And the consequences of this, as opposed to your odd hypothetical where we take gun control TOO seriously in the US, are clear: more people will die. I'm sorry to be blunt, but, there you have it.
In the interest of avoiding a flame war, I would like to clarify my comment. Please elaborate on what "war" is being waged. That's a strong statement.

I'd point to a combination of (2) and (5) as the maximally likely reason we'd fail to build a generalized game playing system.

I believe there exists a combination of hardware and software capable of beating humans in all games. However, I also believe victory in a single game gives us minimal information on whether or not the system generalizes to many games (to say nothing of non-game, e.g. more complex, ruleless systems).
Do they actually still call it that?

I believe the idea is to ban the use of facial recognition by international agreement, in the same way that chemical and biological weapons, landmines and cluster munitions are banned (or at least controlled). The safeguarding of such a treaty is then left to some supra-national organisation, such as the UN, etc.

In any case, I don't understand what you propose we do. Governments can fail to uphold their own laws. Should we do away with all laws? And then- what? A life of total lawlessness is better than one where laws are sometimes broken by government?
