Kudos to the team - they might have been able to raise money to keep plugging away, but they've seen the writing on the wall.

I know nothing about their company or their team, but I do know that product-market fit is something you have, or you don't. There's no real middle ground, so if you don't have it, you need to madly iterate/pivot until you do, or cut your losses and move onto the next project.

People said the same about the chat rooms we used when we were kids. You could argue that those had much more potential than Youtube comments to lead to actual physical harm. In some cases, bad things really happened. Chris Hansen made a show about it, and police used chat rooms to find pedophiles. But were internet chat rooms ever an "emergency"? Where do we draw the line with bans?

There are family-friendly content creators who diligently police their comments sections who now have their livelihoods severely impacted.

I was already assuming that concurrency was a big part of that statement. I respect Rust's attempt to solve these issues at the language level, but my experience has led me to think that they need to be solved at the architectural level of a program.

As far as I can tell, concurrency is fundamentally about grouping data by dependencies to find chunks that can be isolated. I think that resources are more about lifetimes and ownership and that resources and data aren't the same thing. This doesn't contradict what Rust is doing, it is more about relying on the language less.

You can see what I'm talking about in this link, though I don't think it has been digestible enough yet without video or examples.

I've never heard of sci-hub being blocked by any academic institution.
Kindly chill with the snark, and the implicit assumption that I'm some sort of framework lackey. That was the year the iPhone 3g came out. Lots HAS changed since then, not least that Javascript through 2009 was ES3, unchanged since 1999 at that point, 2 years after the language was released.
> Finally, sci-hub is accessible via .onion through Tor. Maybe that's not a viable access method for the general public, but the sort of people who read a lot of research articles can jump through the hoop of setting up Tor Browser if that's what they need to keep using sci-hub

Have you done or read much UX analysis with academics? They do _not_ tend to be adepts at things like tor browser. Not even in "hard-science" disciplines. Some are, some aren't.

They don't want to jump through any hoops at all, they see getting/finding articles as a necessary evil, mostly to get citations to put in papers. They are busy, and have no time for any extra hoops, and aren't really interested in learning new tools for accessing articles. In fact that's WHY they are using sci-hub, simply because it's the quickest lowest barrier way to get the stuff, without having to learn any special tools.

I'm not sure either what bigger guns Elsevier has, but they'll try to figure it out. They have not yet tried to go against _authors_ for sharing the articles they wrote, but Elsevier has copyright or exclusive license to distribute. Or against individual academics for consuming pirated articles. (You know the emails/letters you get if you're torrenting a movie from piratebay without a VPN or what have you? Nobody has ever sent one to an academic for sharing or downloading an article... yet).

I own two LIFX bulbs and they're in reading lamps on each side of my bed. I program them to turn on at 8AM to help me wake up.

Over time I've found that I enjoy going to bed with them configured to a blue color and dimmed to about 60%.

Arbitration is the result of a power imbalance between labor and employers, an attempt to subvert the ability to seek recourse in the justice system. It is wildly disingenuous to insinuate investment in legal firms is the motivator.

Its less that nobody at Youtube tried to solve the problem but more that it was never a business priority in the interests of the bottom line to solve this problem in a nuanced way.

For Youtube, these kinds of comments threaten to alienate advertisers. Comments only have a miniscule impact on viewer retention and engagement, so if the actual business is threatened by comments you just get rid of the comment system.

I understand this possibility, but it's not the way I would do an ARM port in an ideal world.

Being the original designer of Hyperscan isn't much help; I don't work at Intel any more and wouldn't have all that much clout in trying to get an ARM port into the codebase.

I'm thinking about building a followup regex matcher - considerably smaller scale, and starting with a Hyperscan code base for the tools/infrastructure/boring bits - ("ure3"). This would definitely have ARM as a first-class architecture. Anyone 64-bit and little-endian can play, I would think (legacy stuff like 32-bit, etc can go somewhere else).

I just with the ARM guys would get their shit together and support their own much ballyhooed SVE. The idea of announcing something in 2016 and not supporting it in a server chip that's due for mid-2020 is... novel.

Ahh, I see. Thanks for explaining.
I think that there's an element of validation and indoctrination that is a serious concern here. In addition to an overall significant lowering of the discourse around things by allowing garbage quality trolls and other horrible comments, and in addition to bullying, aggressive behavior, stalking, and other things that are broadly considered unpleasant, this kind of behavior breeds more of this behavior.

Consider someone growing up on the internet. The more they're exposed to this sort of content, the more it will be normalized in their mind. The more they're exposed to this sort of content, the more likely susceptible people are to be radicalized by it, and to grow into the same sort of troll. Hiding or suppressing low-quality content creates a herd immunity effect. It prevents a shift of the Overton Window to where "generally allowable discourse" suddenly includes timestamping the most "salacious" parts of a child's video, or telling people to actually kill themselves, or sharing their purely racist, hate-filled viewpoints.

While you may rather be exposed to it because you have the strength and capability to view it as a curiosity and a sociological study, the impressionable among us maybe deserve to not be bombarded with garbage, and we may have a moral duty to at least make some effort to minimize indoctrination and radicalization on these platforms.
Thanks for the climate moisture answer. Still wondering, is it hot or mild? (Do you engage in any activity that requires sweating during a dry fast, or do you minimize physical activity?)

The references submitted to Searchlight are saved and available for the candidate to use and share, and referencers are not asked to speak to a particular culture.

At UC we have eScholarship https://escholarship.org

I didn’t make the comment to your original post, nor did I necessarily agree with it. I just thought it ironic that a comment (admittedly crudely) arguing that censorship is dangerous was immediately censored.

Note this announcement doesn't say anything about submitting to journals, doesn't say that even UC researchers will no longer submit to Elsevier journals (or no longer be on Elsevier journal editorial boards).

They can and presumably will keep submitting to Elsevier journals. UC just won't pay for licenses to access those journals.

If UC tried to tell faculty which journals they were or were not allowed to submit to, that would be a LOT more controversial to them. I mean, this _could_ have been controversial too, but that would be even more so. If this actual decision wasn't controversial among faculty, my guess is it's because they're all using sci-hub anyway.
This is a good point about reference checks in general.

Do you realise how silly this line of argument is? Why exactly should we (or Google for that matter) not recognise that there are differences in some actions? That some things are good, and some things are bad? In what world do you conceive it to be the same to advertise flat earth theories as legitimate unless you are yourself a flat earther?

This idea that because nobody has a monopoly on the truth then we can't make decision is utterly futile and silly; I have no idea where it originates, except perhaps in the darkest places where reason has utterly collapsed.
> It's rare (though possible) for someone to turn from a lazy, self-entitled dilettante into a hard-working ace coder.

Is it though? In my experience people are good at building things that they care about and bad at building things they don't care about.

If someone has been trapped working on sisyphean bullshit projects I would expect them to do much better on something they cared about, and the initial sorting of people into what they work on is often largely indiscriminate when it comes to what they care about, so I would expect there to be a significant percentage of people underperforming at their current job who would excel elsewhere.

I know at least personally, my job performance has fluctuated wildly depending on whether or not I cared about what I was supposed to do.

If you managed to incentivize me enough to get me to leave what I'm doing well now to go do something that I thought was rent seeking and deeply meaningless, I would most likely perform very poorly, and I've already had the opposite happen where I performed mediocrely in a boring area and then performed incomparably better when I got into doing things I cared about.

How many timezones are there in Teslaworld?
This was not evident to me after reading the article, but perhaps I did not read carefully. Can you kindly direct me towards some textual evidence, or a citation?
They've already paused ordering on their site and redirected people to this page.

The other thing they've got going on is the $1B bond payment due on Friday. I've mentioned this a few times in that its convertible but options are only pricing in a move of up to 3% which won't get them near the strike price to convert their debt.

Rumors are being floated around of pre orders being announced for the model Y. I can't see preorders taking in anywhere near as much as the Model X preorders did for a few reasons.

1) Lost of overlap between the Model X and Model Y customers, and most of these people may have already bought a Model X.

2) Those that put down deposits for a Model X had long waits to get their deposit back or to get their car. We've seen wait times as short as 2 weeks to get your deposit back, a couple of months after the pre orders opened to more than a few months recently. I don't see near as many people rushing off to lock up their money for a couple of years minimum given how long the Model X pre orders forced people to wait.

Given that the Model X has really stretched the assembly lines its clear, at-least to me, that Tesla will need a new factory to build the Model Y because they can't afford to shut down lines at their current plant and shipping cars from the China factor seems not scale-able.

Assuming this is true Telsa will again be entering a bet the company situation like they did with the Model X. Hopefully they can work their way through it like they did with the Model X without burning out their workforce.

Other possible things that could be announced...

A new super charger design and build out would be nice but would make for a pretty underwhelming announcement given how much Tesla has built this up.

Also expecting an announcement on a lower end Model 3 but again given how much Tesla hyped this up, that would be a really yawner of an announcement as well.

Though to be fair, he made a huge deal about an announcement in 2015 and it turned out to be Ludicrous mode, so I guess we could be just waiting to be disappointed:(

Dark horse idea, Musk names someone else CEO but given how there is no leak about this I don't think its likely to happen.
this exists.

look up "Green OA" (https://openscience.com/green-oa-vs-gold-oa-which-one-to-cho...) or "Institutional Repositories".

the reasons these sites haven't taken over academic publishing are many and varied:

- they are woefully underfunded (library services are low-status, gendered work, that never receive the funding they deserve).
- publishing in established journals is singularly the most important thing in academic careers.
- scholarly societies (IEEE is referenced elsewhere in this thread), publishers, and other entrenched interests have significant influence on policy.
- etc...

in short, this isn't a technical problem. if it were, it would have been solved over a decade ago.

My understanding is they are demand inelastic so their costs naturally go up, and there's been an arms race in the past 20 years to build very nice new buildings, housing, etc to compete on look, prestige and features for students. Reputation of the school is one of the biggest differentiators, so now that they're being run as a business rather than the state costs have no incentive whatsoever to decrease. Now of course, even if the states wanted to be more equitable to their citizens by going back to a more state-funded model, the cost to maintain all of those new features is massively increased. Its like an asset bubble more or less.

> Note this announcement doesn't say anything about submitting to journals, or even UC researchers no longer doing that.

The policy which resulted in it—UC’s push for open access for public-funded research, and Elsevier’s unwillingness to allow open access on terms UC was willing to accept—implies that, should the breach not be healed, there will eventually be a problem for at least some subset of UC researchers publishing in Elsevier journals.
