Now pick almost any other category-leading software product and you will find a similar situation.

The category-leading product is probably from one of the earliest companies in the field, if not the first. They have the oldest and cruftiest code - and the manpower to somehow keep it working. It is definitely not the fastest and definitely not the most stable. But they do have the resources to make sure it supports all the third party integrations and features important for the big customers.

I have encountered exactly this same situation on several different fields and categories.

At at time when I was a complete open source fanatic in the early 2000s it suddenly made me realize how Microsoft actually had much better quality software than most big proprietary software vendors.
Only companies that are bad at tech implement it this way.

Bethesda is really bad at tech. They use a ancient engine that binds physics calculation to frames and can't go over 60 FPS. They warned Fallout 76 fans during the Beta that they should not click the "Update" button (big download, game screwed). They trust the game client 100%. You can hack/cheat in this multiplayer game by changing INI files with a text editor.
dude is right haha. no matter how hard to try to write nice documentation and make my code nice and user friendly, when i pass it off to someone else for usage they ALWAYS find a way to pass in the wrong arguments and misuse my methods -_-

I agree that this is the standard for modern online games... I had friends really into destiny 2 and they tried to get me to play. As soon as I realized the game was 'online only' i was like fug this man. I had been playing soulsborne games offline on an old xbox 360 for years with no complaints. Nowadays shit is fucked with most games, they expect you to be online and paying extra. No thanks!

As someone else said, i think the trend is 'game as a service' rather then a "game" in traditional sense. Sony has put out some good single player offline capable games, i just have the think the re-occuring revenue of these GaaS games (fortnite, fallout, etc) is SO damn high that the business value ends up guiding decisions.
You're right, but that doesn't really contradict anything I said. It may be a steal in absolute terms, but most hobbyists still can't afford it. How they get the price down further is a question I don't have an answer for.

Then again, maybe I'm wrong and the hobbyist / individual tinkerer market doesn't actually matter. And maybe a bunch of startups and other companies looking for a competitive edge will bet on POWER and start buying these right away. I hope that happens, as that could serve to eventually get them to the "economy of scale" level where the price can come down more.
It absolutely is a common practice that people be turned down for jobs because those hiring think they are "overqualified" for various reasons. Something you are obviously aware of by trimming your resume; you were being strategic.

Whether or not the OP was strategic about this I have no idea. Sometimes people are turned down just because they give the impression of being overqualified, or because omitting that experience leaves too many gaps.

Google will capture your data whether you're a paying customer of not. They will tell you they capture "some data" to personalise their service and make your life more convenient. In reality, they capture everything they can and it's all grist to their advertising mill.

But Google is not the only company doing this. Facebook and Amazon will track you across the internet, and even Microsoft is now adopting similar strategies.

Your best defence is to minimise the attack surface. Own your own data by paying for cloud storage and email. Use a browser like Brave, or Firefox with the new privacy control turned on. Don't post anything to social media you wouldn't be happy for the whole world to know.
Agree, the actual title "Real-Time Noise Suppression Using Deep Learning" is much more informative.

This is promising.

However... I'm not a doctor, nor even particularly knowledgable. But isn't one of the risks of testosterone supplementation a risk that one's own testes will reduce their testosterone production if there's a bunch of exogenous testosterone making its way into the body?

Not that anybody's claiming otherwise, but as promising as this is my best layperson's understanding is that it's not as simple as giving people some testosterone along with their other treatments.
Sure. But if you are asked directly you may not feel comfortable lying about it.
A peaceful transition is always better for people living through it. Their current government is indeed terrible but minority governance is a really hard situation to fix.

This is an interesting contrast though - similarly in Paris, apartments can get much smaller than SF. The difference is, in SF, you simply don’t have the choice.
No evidence of any useful non-Bitcoin blockchain applications so far, so no reason to expect any Amazon/google type successes. If someone figures out something useful to do with “blockchain” it will probably blow up quickly.
Google continues to really take their cameras to the next level. It's just a shame the rest of the hardware doesn't follow suit.
I'd try using firefox instead of chrome for your development browser, I do a lot with webrtc and find myself in permissions hell with chrome so my main system is ubuntu with firefox rather than chrome these days. I use a mac for mobile development because its handy to be able to handle ios and android with the same system.
A minimum wage job may have allowed you to make rent, but it isn't a reliable path out of homelessness. If you're homeless, not only do you have to find a cheap apartment, but you also need to be able to put down three months rent (first, last, security) all at once. Could you have made rent that month if it cost 3x as much? Could you have made rent if you had to leave work early to check into a shelter everyday by 3pm?
Homelessness never existed before government regulations?
I no way am implying or saying it’s not an accomplishment. It’s just the fact they’re literally screenshots I found hilarious/brilliant.
It isn't that hard to build functions around a lot of this, either. Emacs has the wonderful macro "rx". https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/rx
Thanks for the number!

Still, my concern isn't just the landfill. When talking about unnecessary packaging, it's also the energy cost of extracting oil and turning it into that plastic packaging. Not all trash is created equal.

Talk shit about glorious socialism and get downvoted to hell in HN.

But don’t worry. Social democracies are being banished by popular voting from other countries in South America. Venezuela played a big part in this.
But I don't want my taxes raised an order of magnitude to pay for everyone else. I believe in equal opportunity, not equal outcome. Not everyone has to be on a level playing field. That is fake and forced, not natural. Even the poorest American (or anyone short of war-torn countries) has the opportunity to better themselves. It may not be easy or the path may include things that at first seem unnatural, but the paths are there.

Case in point in America. I know many, many people who served in the military for the sole reason of a college education. It cost them 4-8 years, but they emerged a veteran with veteran hiring preferences, debt-free, have work experience, life experience, and they are all fine. And no, you don't have to end up in a combat role at all. It's completely avoidable by going into the Air Force or Navy in an administrative role. In the rear with the gear, as it were. Military IT training for those with an IT bent is great training and you get to work on some really interesting stuff. You will never see the front lines as an Air Force IT staffer. This is but one path. For those morally opposed to the military, there are other paths like the Peace Corps, WWOOF, etc.

Edited to add:

From Winston Churchill:

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

"There is nothing government can give you that it hasn't taken from you in the first place."

"The main vice of capitalism is the uneven distribution of prosperity. The main vice of socialism is the even distribution of misery."

"You don't make the poor richer by making the rich poorer."

"We contend that for a nation to try and tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket trying to lift himself up by the handle."

# End Sir Winston Churchill

I agree with all his above statements. Even Scandinavia is cutting back on the services they offer because they cannot afford it long term. It's not a panacea. You earn it, you keep it. Full stop. I should not be forced by taxation to fulfill the lives of others. If you are able-bodied, get a job, even if you don't like it. Work your way up the ladder. Don't expect anything from anyone. No one owes you anything other than mutual respect as a human being. Want something? Go earn it.
yes, that was unfortunate as I cannot see the post, but the title seemed interesting

All it takes for a perfectly democratic country to elect a terrible leader (who will probably erode democracy away) is to have a previous leader not pay attention to the voting masses. Anger is a very bad advisor.

I think I'll install Chromium on my old notebook that hasn't died yet (Samsung R40, that old).

But if I decide to buy a new one I'd make sure that VFIO works on it, once you cross that bridge there's no reason to go back. And I suspect that Chromebooks don't support VFIO.
A lot of that has to do with American building and rental codes.
Oh, sorry, I wasn’t referring to REPL.it (although that’s cool too), I was referring to the read-eval-print-loop you get when you run python (or irb for ruby, or perl) on its own at the command line without any files or command line arguments. You might have heard it called an interpreter too depending on which language you’ve used.

Yet, another update.
It might be that since my tweet included a mention to him, Aleksey clicked on the notification and could see my tweets after that, and not in his timeline. We repeated the experiment, and found that after I blocked and unblocked him, he was indeed still unfollowing me.
It depends. I've been looking a lot into this lately. There is still a middle market for video games. It's more difficult than it used to be to get noticed in that space, but it's far from impossible. Here's a GDC video about a small studio who created a downhill biking game that made $250k in revenue.

AliveCor's Next App Could Save You from a Heart Attack
I was homeless in Silicon Valley many years ago. There were a lot of ‘us’. We stayed hidden in the woods, bathed often, and dressed impeccably in public. Some had jobs. Some were grad students. Several couples. There were no drugs, alcohol, beggars, or thieves out there. $5/day was enough. It was hard physically, but very spiritual, financially free, and altogether one of the best times of my life. Today it’s too dangerous. There are way too many criminals and addicts on the street. There’s nothing worse for a good person who has fallen on hard times than a policy that is lenient on crimes, drug use, public consumption, and public nuisance of the homeless. You can walk away and lock the door. They can’t. Just imagine yourself out there being victimized by bad people only because rich people feel guilty for them. For them. The one that just mugged you for their next high, or worse. Guilt for them. Good luck, kid.

I dunno, my buddy who just got a degree in high energy plasma physics working on fusion reactors might disagree with you.

And really, you just sound like every crank ever who thought X technology was totally unfeasible and always would be -- until it wasn't. So currently attempts haven't found a solution to the reaction vessel destruction problem. That does not mean someone in the future couldn't figure that one out.
They aren't 'criminalizing homeless'. They're making it illegal to set up at busy intersections walking up and down cars "hey spare some change, spare some change" and from harassing people (I mean HARASSING) people downtown when they enter/leave businesses.

The common ploy downtown, since the smoking ban took effect, was to find groups of smokers "hey can I bum a cigarette" or "hey can I get a light". If you engage them, with a yes or a no, they then starting asking if you have any money or try to sell you cheap plush toys.

I am all for solving the homeless problem, I was profoundly impacted after going to San Francisco and seeing people literally sleeping on sidewalks. It's a huge problem and unfortunate HOWEVER people absolutely abuse the charity of others this is why cities like Indianapolis have passed laws about panhandling.

My whole damn point in this thread is the author is accusing people of 'judging homeless', my point is MANY people have never experienced proper homelessness, they've experienced con artists and addicts that BELLIGERENTLY attempt to extract money out of people. When your experience is primarily with those types, you get jaded reeeeeeallllll quick.

This article reads like

'I was homeless once and that makes me better than you, listen up while I judge you because some people judge homeless people'.

June 24th 2018, at 33 years of age, is the first time I have ever seen someone sleeping on a sidewalk or the street. In San Francisco. The first time I've ever seen someone living in a tent or improvised tarp and cardboard tent, was on June 24th 2018 at 33 years of age in San Francisco.

While I have seen actual homeless people here in Indy, it was never in a tent/tarp/lean to on a sidewalk or street, never someone's camp in an alley, it was seeing people milling about outside of a homeless shelter when they are made to leave until night and never once while in that area was I ever hit up for money. I have however been hit up, and driven by people with signs, countless times in other areas by people that looked absolutely nothing like the men outside of the Wheeler mission or the individuals I saw in San Francisco. Unless they pan handlers just abruptly became homeless, the simple state of their shoes and the cleanliness of their clothes and person screamed they were running a con unlike the legitimate homeless people I have encountered.

I think the key thing is that these are exercises. People learn by seeing examples and solving problems with gradually increasing difficultly. This appears to be an arena for doing just that.

Concepts and theory are certainly critical, but one needs to practice in order to achieve mastery. The conceptual framework for all this stuff is covered in detail in other resources, anyway.

After taking a cursory look around, Edabit seems to be filling a very specific need. I like it.

Wow! Getting it from Jassy is one thing, but hearing an engineering mind like James Hamilton sounding off like this is a surprise. I can't imagine what Oracle must have done to deserve a dressing-down like this.
Good insight but way too old.

But then we got old.

Now funny enough it's passed on to the old old (40, 50+ and the mainstream), and to them it's reality.

It didn't get passed to the younger kids (18 and below), and the young folks (20-27's) are bored with it.

Or genomic information, or a unique combination of drug interactions which could be combined into a sort of health fingerprint, or phenotype information, race or age, which are often necessary to provide medical context for diagnoses, or timestamps on test results that match up with events in your calendar or destinations in your navigation or security camera footage, and I'm sure the list goes on.

The word "anonymity" is a little ambigious. It can mean "unable to be identified" or it can mean "namelessness". There's not much information about anyone that is truly unable to be identified, especially when combined with additional pieces of data readily available from external sources.

It all depends on who they're sharing the anonymous data with and to what external data do those partners have access.
Thank you for this public service!

I think that there are different groups. One group wants constant updates. The other group is irritated by constant updates. Both are vocal on social media. I fall into the latter camp-I don't get a ton of time to devote to gaming so when I do I'd like my games to be ready to play. Biweekly multi GB updates make this difficult, and it's extra insulting when they're just adding cosmetics.
Waco happened

Waco was the cops wasn’t it? Who are always happy to shoot random civilians.
But that private company cannot force you at gunpoint to comply or take away your right to medical care should you not use their services. Everyone should have a contingency handgun or two if/when things go to hell in a handcart. After Katrina, government swooped in and confiscated legally-owned guns from everyone they could. None of these were ever returned. A handgun could easily prevent your family from being looted, raped, overtaken by bad people at your house. The use of guns for this reason happens a couple of million times a year in America, but it never makes the news because righteous use of firearms does not fit the liberal, progressive narrative. I know two people who saved their own families from harm by having a gun at home.
I've no doubt that guerilla resistance would continue for years, but the imposition of petrol rationing alone would curtail almost all rebel attempts to hold anything of any importance within about two weeks.
I believe this has to do largely with Japanese game development culture. Japanese developers in general are known for rarely, if ever, updating their games. For example, the game Nier: Automata released with game-breaking bugs, and never got a single patch. Nintendo also doesn't patch their games often, but they have a stronger commitment to releasing things in a good state in the first place. Shigeru Miyamoto famously said, "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad."

> Sure, you could list a finite number of things humans perceive in a similar way

My entire thesis is that people may perceive things differently. Go re-read everything I wrote and tell me where I said people perceive similarly.

There exists a difference between perception and interpretation. Perceptions are peculiar to the individual. Interpretations can be agreed upon between individuals. There may be things in this world that we can’t even perceive, but our interpretations are based upon observations that are consistently repeatable.

On the other hand there are players that find bugs from Skyrim in Fallout 4. The 3D engine still binds physics to FPS in Fallout 76 and can't go over 60.
