The article, while making copious allusions to damning research, is light on actual damning research and heavy on rhetoric. The linked website (http://sugarscience.ucsf.edu) is also full of references to studies that are suggestive but nothing conclusive.

What's really worrying is the constant refrain that they just "knew" something had to be wrong. Doesn't exactly inspire confidence in their research. They then keep following up with references to diabetes, as if diabetes is obviously a sugar consumption problem, but I understand that that's not the case (https://www.diabetes.org.uk/guide-to-diabetes/enjoy-food/eat...).

All in all, with references to research that is weaker than they suggest, fearmongering rhetoric, and pushing a narrative of Big Sugar stifling honest, brave scientists, this article is indistinguishable to a layman (me) from an antivaxxer screed.

And honestly? The comments here are also indistinguishable from comments on an antivax website.
It wouldn't change how far he was going, as he was crossing the actual land part, not ice extent. Might be 1 or 2 degrees warmer than it was 50 years ago or something.
We had plenty of algorithmic trading and years of very low volatility at the same time. If algorithmic trading increased risk of extreme events, it would have shown up during let’s say 2012-2017 years of low volatility. No, algorithmic trading actually reduces risk of extreme events such as fat fingers or extreme bets by humans. What drives volatility is macroeconomic environment.
The old adage in advertising is "I know that only 50% of advertising works, I just don't know which 50%". That is not new.

Also, the goal of advertising is often not to convince the user they want something, it's to get them familiar with something through repeated exposure so when they do have a need, they choose the thing they have been made familiar with through the ad campaign.
The comparison between C++ and Haskell is laughable, and shows that Graydon is missing the most important facet of this:

GHC Haskell and Rust with have an intermediate language (Core and MIR + Chalk, respectively), which keep the rest of the language in tight check. No other mainstream language has this (Java bytecode doesn't really speak to high level safety properties). This ensures the vast majority of the languages are forgettable sugar, and making consistencies of various sorts tractable.

I would argue that even outside of languages as we conventionally think of them, the lack of separating functionality into core languages/interfaces and sugar is the central failure in letting complexity spiral out of control. And indeed, just about everything has.

The current wave of reducing everything to a combination of 'data & algorithm' and tackling every problem with more data and better algorithms is the logical end-point of the control revolution that started in the 19th century. - Ashwin Parameswaran (2012)

I say dive in, don't be shy. There is so much that these specific intellectual paths lead to.
An important element of Kubernetes is that it standardizes the infrastructure control plane, and allows different pieces to be plugged in (for networking, storage, etc.).

The "virtual kubelet" essentially throws that all that away and keeps Kubernetes "in API only". For example, with virtual kubelets, scheduling is meaningless and networking and storage are restricted to whatever the virtual kubelet target supports (if useable at all).

Personally, I think the value proposition is tenuous -- you can create VMs today, doing so via the Kubernetes API isn't suddenly revolutionary. Just like throwing something in a "hardware virtualized" instance doesn't suddenly make the whole system secure.

Containers and Kubernetes are compelling for a variety of reasons, improving them to handle multi-tenancy is a broad challenge but I don't think the answer is to reduce the standard to what we have today (a bunch of disparate VMs).
There are plenty of cases where one child was placed and other children in the same household, despite suffering the same problem (things like drunk/drugged parent, bad living arrangements, that would not differ from one child to another), did not. This happens quite often because almost everywhere, a child is placed pretty much in 2 cases

1) extreme distress (ie. child directly dumped on street, or parents involved in car crash, ... some extreme cases like that)

2) when there is free space. Free space almost universally means "1 place". Families often aren't just 1 child. It may be months or even longer before a second place opens up, and things may happen that mean the other children are never placed.

Which also means that for instance, children from the same family only rarely end up in the same place. But "luckily" it allows us to verify exactly what the cause is.

So no, it really is treatment that is the source of the harm.

The weird part is that when talking to children you will find out it doesn't just not matter for intelligence. Most abuse, that falls short of permanent physical damage obviously, does not even make children unhappy. Seriously. I mean it's simple once you think it through, but it's so incredibly weird.

This is incredible the first time you see an interview with such a kid. "I thought it was normal that parents force you to stand outside with your dinner plate and keep you there until bed time". It seriously did not bother that kid. "What's wrong with that ?". Even with much worse things.

You even see this about youth services itself. A kid that has been locked up for a decade, never once allowed to go to school. "Treated" to solitary confinement for often trivial infractions sometimes once a week, never allowed so much privacy as a single drawer. Forced to take medication, sometimes tied up and fed medication with tubes. They will say "they were just trying to take care of me". And ask in amazement if you think she deserves better, then asks what better would be.

I mean it makes sense if you think about how a mind, that does not have a point of comparison, must think. It's only lasting source of information is the abusers (or the youth services staff). And of course, hearing an anecdote of a different situation does not change things. But ... it's incredible when you see it. Hell, you get shown it, it is in the literature, you see it on videos, and you still won't believe it. But I assure you this is very true.

The only thing that happens is the role switch. Kids brought up in youth care almost all eventually attack their carers. Kids abused at home attack their parents. Not because they want protection (they may do it to give protection to others though). They do it "because it's normal". If your dad beats you, you "learn" for the day you're strong enough to beat him. And of course, that day will come. If you get thrown to the ground and locked up by youth care employees, sooner or later you get the better of the employee and it won't be their best day. Kids will do to you (and to others) whatever you do to them, eventually.

I wasn't making a point against/in favor of free market nor was I suggesting this was a hidden factor I just unraveled. I just don't see this discussed in free market debates, here or in reddit but I think this is a very practical problem for some markets. I personally try to take as much rational decisions as possible and one of the limiting factors for me is knowing good enough algorithms to efficiently compute rational decisions. Of course, we don't have perfect information, so that's a problem too.

EDIT: I must also admit that I know absolutely nothing about economics. I'm a regular software engineer.
Thanks captain obvious for repeating what everyone else is constantly repeating when it comes to the letter of the law.

I have to wonder if bots are posting this shit because whenever there is a conversation about free speech, you just get AstroTurf with people making this point about free speech the law, not the principal in order to poison the well.
And having chosen this, perhaps they can't afford to live and let live.

This is how oppression operates. First it's, "Well, we'd live and let live, but we can't afford the consequences if we serve you." Then it will be, "We can't afford the consequences if we're at all associated with you." Then it will be, "We can't afford the consequences if we don't loudly support the 'right' things." Finally, it will become, "We can't afford the consequences if we don't turn you in."
Sure. For example, you can say what you want, after you've been exiled by the government to some desert island. An alternative would be a special muzzle to be fitted on the mouth of someone, so that he can say what he wants but emit no sound. /s

It seems kind of a stretch to call it "biology" then.

"I designed a new life form! points to lego brick It exists and you can move it! Future work will involve making it self-replicate and have artificial intelligence."
I doubt they're right, and/or I doubt they told you the truth. This feature actively impairs discoverability by putting the user in a Skinner box where they have to push a button, repeatedly, to make the negative conditioning stop. In my household, it mainly serves to make us "discover" what's on Amazon Prime Video instead.

Of course, many of Netflix's UI features have historically been engineered to make it hard to tell just how limited their selection really is, so autoplay does fit that pattern, at least.
I wanted to edit it, as I said in my other comment, but I can't seem to do it now. Perhaps because it's flagged? If you see this and can delete it, that's fine with me.

For the record, I don't think slightly sharp language defending myself against unfounded accusations is "outright incivility", but it's not worth discussing. Whether or not I agree, it seems more constructive to just delete it.
That is one big difference, with big implications.
So in your world, if your labeled politically incorrect by the NYT or friends you should just lay down and die?
And yet not long ago the New-York Times supported the racist tweets of its editor Sarah Jeong.
TLDR: "For all of the previously described reasons, the period that we are now in looks a lot like 1937."

My father in-law is in hospital right now with gallstones and various other infections due to this. He had severe stomach pain and went to the hospital.

Tomorrow he'll be transported to another hospital via helicopter and airplane for operation.

It's not too serious when treated but the doctors say it's due to high sugar intake.

Personally I prefer natural sugar over the artificial stuff but, as with everything else, moderation is key.
> It is also a set of cultural norms rooted deeply in a long lineage of hard won ideas.
> By banning these people platforms like Twitter and Patreon are eroding free speech not in the legal sense, but in the cultural norms sense. If these norms continue getting eroded, god help us all -- it may set humanity and the western civilization back by hundreds of years.

Not among those hard-won norms are: hate speech, incitement of violence against groups and individuals, either directly or by thinly disguised dog whistles. Those voices, though they were always present among people, were held back, suppressed if you will, by large media organizations since around the end of the second world war, and definitely since the civil rights movement, when public exclamations of hate-speech and racism became taboo. Prior to that, it was common for newspapers to regularly carry articles that we would today consider vile and bigoted. But norms changed for the better.

But the internet came along and gave a medium to hate speech that had been restrained for decades by traditional media. Bemoaning the restraint of hate speech now is lamenting the loss of a forum which has existed for only 20 years or so, from roughly when the internet became a popular medium, and was discovered by existing hate groups.

The rise of, and tacit societal acceptance of mass-distributed hate speech via the Internet was actually the erosion of the norm, rather than the other way around.
And that should be the end of it. This whole debate is a nonissue if there exists an open market. If the ideas are big enough that discriminating against them disenfranchises a fair number of people, these people should have no trouble setting up an alternative that caters to their select 'views'.

That seems similar to the concept of "ruinous empathy". In other words, don't waste your feelings on others, especially if you may have to fire them.

Having been on both sides of that coin, being fired and having to fire others, it's clear to me that reducing the amount of pain is important, even if such an act must be done.

No, the point is to get ahead of C++'s situation so as not to repeat its mistakes. You can't do that if you wait until it's too late.
I'm having trouble imagining a performance benefit to two (otherwise identical) 1ghz cores over one 2ghz core, unless:

1. The two processes cause frequent evictions of the CPU cache in some way that two cores can mitigate by having separate caches.

2. You are able to pin a process to a CPU core, and eliminate all the overhead of running the process scheduler.

I would be curious to see the benchmark you're referring to. My gut tells me that the performance differences come from comparing different processor families.
of course you should be able to discuss it, just in the correct medium for it. If Patreon doesn't want you, bypass it and create your own, or donate directly to the individual. However, with how much dishonest argumentation and outright lying that has been going on in recent years, being forced to accept everyone's speech, equally is farcical at best!

Very easy to find plain yogurt in the US without sugar.

A bit harder if you don't want it to contain gelatin or pectin.

Of course, varies from state to state.

Search for Nancy's yogurt in your area. Easily available in the Western US in any grocery store. In the Midwest I found it only in health food stores.

Patreon has been on a spree to ban people that think the wrong way.
Matt Christiansen had a call [1] with Patreon to discuss their banning of Sargon of Akkad. Sargon was notified of the banning by his patrons, not Patreon, and had no recourse to challenge the decision. In the call Patreon made it clear that their platform is;

1) explicitly anti free-speech

2) is not a free market (they can ban you for arbitrary reasons, for things posted anywhere including leaked private messages)

3) their rules are enforced in a subjective manner by design

Considering that they have banned many people that disagree with progressive PC ideology, which seems to be a moving target of increasing religious [2] fervor, I can't see why anyone would trust their platform at this point and rely on it to build their income.

Even progressives might like the so-called TERFs fall on the wrong side of the party-line at some point, so I can't see how anyone can trust their platform as a source of income. Unless you of cause love staking your income on the arbitrary whims of the ideologues at Patreon.

As evidence for their political tilt they do not ban leftists that call for violence against viewpoint opponents:

The funny thing is that I have no reason to talk out of my butt. I am just expressing my personal experience with food.

My idea of a healthy diet is fruit, seeds, nuts, and occasional grains / legumes. The 'Steve Jobs' diet if you will.

It's honestly surprising to see how much lighter and energetic you become once you drop meat and huge blocks (carbs) of crap that makes you feel like you ate something worthwhile.
This website degrades unusually poorly with 3rd-party JS disabled. It looks fine, and I was really confused until I realized the main content was in images that had been omitted without any kind of placeholders.

No. What you put in “see notes” notes is the boring technical detail such as how week numbers are calculated and which document or paragraph this particular implementation holds authoritative over conflicting alternatives.

What you put in the man page is the clear statement that for example YYYY “week year” should not be used where yyyy “calendar year” would usually be more appropriate: point out the confusing alternatives and which one the unaware reader is most likely to need.
Am I factually incorrect? NO. Patreon should not be trusted with anyone's money, because they will make up new rules on the spot, and ban you for things that were not against their own rules. How long until Patreon decides that they don't have to give refunds anymore?
I would also be interested in this. Many soft drink recipes are well-established and rarely adjusted because even small, well-intentioned changes can damage the brand and customer loyalty. Furthermore, it seems counterintuitive that producers would increase sugar content by as much as 1.57 times because that would inherently cost them significantly more money over time.
Given this bit -

>"Since this was a task more suited to Cylance Protect, they rolled out that tool in a free trial mode, and it "lit up like a Christmas tree." At this point, OPM began using Protect extensively in its diagnostic process, despite not committing to license it from Cylance; they eventually agreed to do so on June 30th, a day before the trial period was set to elapse. Cylance did not actually receive payment for months."

- it seems that the takeaway is even more devastating. Don't start work unless they have already paid.
Do people still regularly try to ship common platform code as a shared C++ library to minimise unique code bases for their mobile apps? I recall reading years ago Dropbox trying this, but in 2018 is this really the best approach we have?

I can see why it might potentially be attractive in purely architectural terms, but I wonder if the “savings” meaningfully materialise in practice when so little pure native development occurs in C++ on iOS and Android.

Regardless, there’s still a complexity cost - unique native platform UI code is still unique native code, plus all the localisation, QA testing, etc, etc fun that will entail for an app the size of Slack.

If you look at the progress graph of AlphaZero / LeelaChess (open source clone), and look at how it plays in its weaker iterations, it actually pretty closely correlates to how a weaker human chess player would play at those levels of strength (positional blunders, simple tactical mistakes, etc).

I've played chess for many years and I've played a few games against Leela (not full strength, the early versions). I never got the feeling that I was playing a computer.

Additionally, one of the primary ways of improvement past the ~2000 level is review of master games. Most people who make it to GM level have reviewed upwards of 5,000 master games or more over a significant period of time. So they build up a similar system of "weights" in their mind for different positional features, very similarly to the way the NN would approach the problem.

Sure, AlphaZero/Leela has not obtained generalized intelligence, but within a constrained sphere (Chess, Go, etc), it has come just about as close as is possible to that.
