Can you point to some links on Google sharing data with third parties? AFAIK they don't share any data. You want to target a certain demographic they will target for you but they won't pass on the data. They keep the data internal.

If you install some 3rd party app and give that app permission to access your data they'll give that app the access you requested them to give but otherwise no sharing AFAIK.
To be fair, there are plenty of professionally managed funds that haven't beaten the index over the last several decades.

When i lived on the north coast of Honduras i got to know some Garífuna people. It is a challenging language to learn to speak and to read. Courses are limited. I remember a religious group putting a lot of effort into translation into the Garífuna language - good for them to keep it alive.
Please do those formats. Many read on iBooks and pdf is hard to work with. I also tried calibre on the PDF, but that doesn't produce a good output. Thanks for this.
If it has a "studio audience" laugh track, I'm out.* If the joke is funny, I don't need a laugh track to tell me about it. If it's not funny, it's not funny, and a laugh track doesn't make it funny. If it's so esoteric of a joke that I missed, then I missed it. Silicon Valley has a lot of these. "Is it Apple Maps bad?" There was one about Theranos that if you had no idea what Theranos is/was, then you'd never have a chance to understand the insult.

This is why I constrained my argument to only consider children ages 0-12.

Regardless of whether "people actually demand the education the public system forces upon them," people do demand a safe, stimulating place to put their very young kids while they go to work.

This is a great point, and I think this is a major point of confusion with REST.

People think of resources as a table or row with CRUD operations rather than in the wider sense as an object with a generic set of operations to trigger transitions to a new state.

It's worth reiterating that REST operations are conceptually much more generic than CRUD. Nothing says that what you GET or PUT/POST need correspond directly to attributes of an object or columns in a database - in the widest sense they simply represent the current state of a resource and a state transition you wish to invoke respectively.

The point is not to (only) encode persistent state, but any state. In a sense representing state that is not persisted on the server is more essential - resources that are persistent on the server can be operated on without always sending the full state. But information that is not persisted on the server needs to be encoded and transmitted with the request/response in some way.
"Producers of good X want the government to subsidize them and not the producers of superior good Y" is just cronyism as usual ...

As long as government exists and has the powers to tax and to omit-to-tax, it will always be a force-multiplying vehicle of competition.

I think you are thinking about this the wrong way. nilpotence doesn't relate to smoothness (of what) and differentiability (of what). Dual numbers happen to, the way I see it, model forward-mode differentiation. There are a couple of ways to see how eps^2=0 is a good model. But the easiest to get across is that in many calculus derivations, you take dx^2 to be 0, since dx is "a very small number".
the pieces are:

* CNN (plenty of pre-trained
* Approximate Nearest Neighbors Database (Annoy, etc)
* webserver to host CNN and serve UI

3.5 lbs of poppy seed makes how much tea: a cup, a liter or a gallon? Seems like a heckova a lot of seeds for a batch of tea.

If this were in the US, shouldn't this be something the USPHS, USDA or FDA should regulate? Selling bulk poppy seeds containing enormous amounts of would-be heroin seems tantamount to drug trafficking.
But the joke on the show is that Jared is the only person who actually level-headed enough to succeed at a business goal, but the developers just made everything into a joke and a pissing contest, and still let themselves be manipulated by the system they thought was too dumb for them.

You could, but my intuition for heat storage capacity tells me it wouldn't last more than into mid October, in many places. Also building a foundation that can take the weight of a 10x10x10 tank of water is costly and non trivial, before you buy or fabricate a tank...

and yet I can mostly-deterministically build any of the main BSD kernels + base systems + UI + all applications and sometimes even package them into release media using 1-3 PMake invocations.. (without needing to embed a QT-based configuration GUI to do it).. don't think msft or goog need to build anything more complicated than that.. and i'd wager if they do some other process isn't working correctly..

(side note PMake is much better than GNUMake imho; syntax is more 'shelly' and there are build in looping constraints abilty to dynamically define targets based on variable contents (e.g. define a target 'T' who's target name will be the contents of the variable 'V'), unlike GNUmake's bizarre quasi-lispy syntax and functions)

> one-way dataflow constraints

definately not up on the theory; this sounds very similar to make target heirarchies (e.g target X is constrained by presence/absence of artifact Y)
One of the great things about getting older is you are no longer taken in by charlatans. Too many re-write their past to be extraordinary, after they become rich often due to very little of their own skills or natural talents. All it is is excellent highly paid PR (aka drivel creation)
I kind of have this feeling for most of Mike Judge's stuff. I think we've all been in an Office Space situation. Being from the same part of Texas that King Of The Hill is based on, I totally know people that I could swear Judge based the characters off of for the show. At this point, Idiocracy should be moved from the comedy category and into the prophecy/documentary category.
> The only way the profits could be 0 is if people's salaries are too high.

Salaries are supply and demand. If you lower salaries you get fewer doctors -- you have to convince people to go to medical school instead of law school or business school.

And the OECD average salary may be too low if the relevant city has a higher cost of living than the OECD average, requiring higher salaries to get people to practice there rather than somewhere their money goes further.

I never said it was hard. I was pointing out that people have been asking easy screener type questions like fizzbuzz for at least 10 years.

Further I was pointing out I prefer fizzbuzz because it at least bears a resemblance to what would be done on a daily basis on the job.

Anyone should be able to answer fizzbuzz yet people who look good on paper constantly fail it. This is why it is useful. And that is why it is actually not a bad interview question. (in my opinion)
The Walmart study sounds quite interesting, and makes sense. Source?

> The cost of the federal tax subsidy for EVs is $2 billion

OK, except the latter is an actual subsidy given directly, while the former is some made up pie-in-the-sky napkin calculation towards something we don't like.

Let's talk about the "social cost of tobacco" then. Or alcohol.

Or how about the "social cost of fast food" leading to obesity?

What about the "social cost of single motherhood?" No other social factor predicts crime and prison time nearly as well, not to mention lack of future educational achievement and lack of future economic output.

If anyone wants to play the theoretical existential threats game, I'll trade an acknowledgement of "global warming" for an acknowledgement of single motherhood.

Anyways I don't think it's sensible to compare theoretical future economic costs to real costs paid by taxpayers right now.

Yes, I can. The current situation seems undesirable. While it's possible that the situation would be worse without Reaganomics, the actual situation is still undesirable. Looking towards the future, it seems unwise to continue a plan that led to undesirable results.

By secondary index I meant having a sort order that's different from the primary key sort order.

I don't think you can skim DFW. Ne says as much in the linked interview:

I can't even skim that sentence.

This is a reason to continue to prescribe drugs through a licensed medical professional. Most long-term medications can't just be stopped without serious adverse effects.

By and large, drugs will be a large social problem until going to the doctor to get a monitored, controlled dose is the easiest way to get a fix. If we keep pharmacists and doctors in control, they can ween dependent users off in a controlled, gradual environment.

Prohibition keeps drug abuse firing on all cylinders until the addict slams into a brick wall (which, very often, is simply death), instead of giving them the equivalent of a "runaway truck" ramp that will allow them to gradually slow the pace and return to a normal existence.
Potential downside - the more aware you are of side-effects, the more likely you are to experience them:

> It has been shown that, due to the nocebo effect, warning patients about side effects of drugs can contribute to the causation of such effects, whether the drug is real or not. This effect has been observed in clinical trials: according to a 2013 review, the dropout rate among placebo-treated patients in a meta-analysis of 41 clinical trials of Parkinson's disease treatments was 8.8%.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocebo
Vertebrates have an adaptive immune system. It’s astounding from a biological and information theory perspective. Genes basically mutate themselves so they can form an enormous variety of proteins instead of the typical one to one mapping of gene to protein. Then there is a protein selection process that weeds out those antigens that bind to the host of that don’t bind to anything, leaving those that can bind to foreign proteins. (There’s another process to replicate antigens when they attack something.)

At least, that’s my primitive understanding. Come on HN, please someone fill in the real story, because I’d love to understand it better. :)
Folks should unionize for livable wages. Walk off the job and be noisy until they're paid fairly. There's no other way because wealth and power concedes nothing without a resolute disagreement backed by action.
And I don't understand how so many people in the HN community can believe such conspiracy theories about Google and Chrome, what info they collect and how it's used and shared.

AFAICT Google doesn't share any info with 3rd parties unless you sign up with some 3rd party and ask them to share the info. I've never used my Google account to sign up with any 3rd parties.

As for Chrome collecting my history.(a) I want that since I want to be able to search my history across devices. For those rare cases where I don't I use an Incognito window. (b) you can opt out of having Google use your history for ad targeting. https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated

Note that ad targeting does not in any way suggest Google is sharing data. In fact it's in their best interest not to share data. If they share the data then other companies can use that data themselves. If they don't share data then other companies have to go through Google for targeted ads.
Any shows of the same style on Hollywood?

Do the show producers feel something similar to some in their own industry or their surreality is just reality for them? Are they brave enough to mock powerful people they may wish to work with later?

Would be fun to watch one on Hollywood and they should have very intimate details to bare.

I agree. It feels like it's trying to be a film festival movie about a tumultuous relationship and "complicated" hero/heroine that just has the beginning of the personal computer age as a backdrop.
The problem isn't their effectiveness versus a placebo but patient selection. Each drug helps a small subset of all people due to natural variations in brain chemistry but does nothing or hurts everyone else. Until we have the technology to properly identify which patients qualify for a clinical trial, the option is between letting people suffer without recourse or dealing with follow on problems like overprescribing and addiction.

The FDA knows how much more complex neuroscience is to develop drugs for and has chosen the latter option as an ethical necessity.
Funny. When I read this the first time, I looked up the writing credits (including/excluding/only guest writers) and heir genders and there was a picture painted there that was quite amusing :)

That's still not demand in the economic sense. People can "verbally" demand anything they want, if they're not willing and able to pay for it, it's not real economic demand.

Don't forget the Iranian & Saudi Arabian internets, they all block different things and have restrictions you wouldn't see elsewhere.

For the point of my original comment though, none of these restricted networks are breeding challengers to the established tech giants like the Chinese Internet is. Kinda surprised there isn't an Indian Baidu/Google, or Tencent/Steam.

Hi, you're correct, LevelDB is the lower level building block for EuclidesDB, it's the underlying storage for item's features/predictions/metadata. EuclidesDB uses gRPC (reasons for that design decision are described in the docs) as protocol communication and protobuf as serialization mechanism for its RPC communication with client APIs (i.e. Python client API). EuclidesDB is also tightly coupled with libtorch (PyTorch C++ backend) and it is EuclidesDB that is responsible to run inference (forward pass) on the models instead of the client, so it takes all the heavy burden from clients and adds it into the database engine itself. EuclidesDB also has querying capabilities (using LSH for performance) to query what was added into it, so again, the query (and feature extraction for it) is executed by the EuclidesDB. So the comparison between LevelDB/LMDB and EuclidesDB doesn't make much sense, they are low-level embeddable engines for key-value storage (that EuclidesDB uses).

Unfortunately, I work on a million-line codebase.

Grep might be fine 99% of the time, but there's no reason to not drop a ripgrep binary on every machine I use regularly.

Ripgrep is faster across the board and has better defaults for working in Git repositories. Since I'm working with a large codebase managed in Git, it's a no-brainer.
I'm not totally familiar with the placebo process. Are there anyways you could throw off the process like having the placebo doctors be really mean and the drug doctors be really nice?
Is everything completely randomized in terms of people that are taking the drugs? IE if there was a magic formula for determining that an individual is more likely to respond positively to placebos could they pick those people?

I can say with absolute certainty that I would be in a far, far worse position in life without lexapro. Others were far less effective, but it absolutely turned me around.
Just an extra note, that is the key point why EuclidesDB support multiple models, so you can have for instance a ResNet trained on ImageNet for some images and another ResNet (same architecture) fine-tuned on your data (domain adapted) for another different semantic space. A concrete example is to think in the example of a fashion company who has fine-tuned different models for different product categories:

Model A = fine-tuned to classify between different types of shoes;

Model B = fine-tuned to classify between different t-shirt types;

EuclidesDB can have these two models and you can add/query items into each one of these different models (hence the concept of "model/module space" that is used by EuclidesDB).
True, but it's also "all we've got" and from my experience, the review times reported are accurate to within a day
SHA-1 is specifically built to have special properties as a secure hash function. As I understand it murmur actually comes from this world.

I also had a gander at some more of the datasketch source. I notice that you compute H_n(x) by x_n = (a_n + b_n * H_0(x)) with a_n, b_n being random seeds....

That's pretty cool, I was doing it by H_n(x) = H_n-1(x|n) and thought it would be pretty quick, but just applying a random round directly after to one hash value from precomputed seeds looks much faster.
