Well nobody is saying that any language is wrong or not. It's just that the french language is kind of an international standard and some people must decide how this standard should adapt with the evolution of the world. But the decision they make are not arbitrary decisions based on their personal feelings, they are guided by the etymology of french.
How does it compare performance-wise to other tools with similar goals? Seeing this is written in 100% python, I suspect it will be an order of magnitude slower.

Nice April fools.
A private institution can successfully build a top flight school by selling off admissions slots.

Even in (especially in) the eyes of these people crying "unfair", these schools have apparently done a very good job of building a successful schools. They've sold off spots and built schools everyone wants to be in.

They want to go to a school with the prestige of money and connections, but those things came with a cost.

Do you really need AGI to understand that some drivers don't respect the right-of-way rules at 4-way intersections? And even if you don't detect the high beams flashing, do you need AGI to know that you shouldn't lock yourself out of the intersection purely based on your place in the queue?
The python code only carries out translation into Perl. The actual execution of the text transformation is Perl, which is generally the fastest of the available tools.
As long as the athletic department breaks even or turns a profit, I don't have an issue with the coach salaries. According to this article, only about 1/4 of schools are running at a loss. That seems lower than expected though.

This is stupid. Make no mistake: this is not the Japanese "culture". Most private organizations in Japan have already switched to the Western calendar, and its only user is the Japanese government (although it's one of the biggest ones, sadly). They should stop wasting their time and energy for this farce.

And yes, one could argue that this will create extra IT jobs that would be unnecessary if they abandoned the system, as this will affect so many legacy systems. Also it will please certain nationalistic right wingers here. But nonetheless it is a self-imposed complexity that we could opt out if we were smart.
Idk. A lot of the applications of AI to compressed sensing are resulting in plausible but inaccurate data being filled in. This is fine for, say, video games, but not as great for medical imaging I'd guess.
Of course not, but getting sued into oblivion might as well be a death sentence. Why take the risk, when the potential reward is so small?
Perl aside, I would say that's almost imperative to learn sed and awk. They invaluable tools for getting things done in *nix. They seem cryptic at first, but put a weekend into learning them and you learn that they are simply concise.
It never occurred to him to run Linux on his machine, for real work, and keep Windows in a VM for when he really needs it?

Surely someone, somewhere has explained that Windows runs faster in a VM than on bare metal, because Linux is better at file systems and buffer management? Or that relying on drivers from all over makes your system less reliable than the fixed set used in the VM?

Me, I cannot imagine running MSWindows on bare metal. It just feels wrong.

This is something I love about Perl: in an age of many subtly incompatible operating systems, Perl said "F it, we'll do what it takes to compile and run your program everywhere." People don't appreciate this now, when everything is Linux, Mac, or Windows, but back when you regularly had to deal with various BSDs, HPUX, AIX, Mac OS 9, and even the occasional VAX, Perl was a godsend.

If your business is making money on treating issues, preventing them isn’t aligned. Worst case, you neglect issues until they get to a point where you start making money. Legacy dialysis business is a good exsmple - they need ass-in-seats to justify clinics, so prevention isn’t as big a priority. Also, doctors often have shares in clinic revenue.
I would never develop on anything but linux, but I definitely know the struggle of drivers and configuration well. It is relatively pain free these days. But I still have to manually find my wifi drivers from a strangers github repo and build from source to install them.
I'm thinking of renting a Vultr bare metal server for an hour or two to do the test you're suggesting. What's the easiest way to spin up a VM with KVM from the command line these days? Is it still libvirt's virsh?

Negotiating raises via counteroffers is a very dangerous practice. The employee will tell everyone how they got their raise (and it will get out), and suddenly you have a much larger problem on your hands rather than a single engineer leaving.

Set up a fair, proactive, and objective way to obtain more money, and never deviate.

Is that really the way to make the MRI faster? It seems like a time and motion problem. You lie in the machine for a long time but there's a lot of slack; the actual image process takes up barely any of the time.

The Importance of Blockchains
If the companies want people to stay they can have compensation policies that base raises on a combination of market rates and the extra value they add to the company. The company is just as interested in maximizing their profits as the employee is in maximizing their income.

Both parties need to understand that employment is purely transactional. It’s that way for all companies. Netflix was honest about it. The famous presentation that “we are like a professional sports team not a family.”
I'm a non-US citizen who moved to San Francisco to work for a startup. I left that job (and the US) many years ago, but that startup is now a unicorn, and they're very close to an IPO.

I believe that if I become a tax resident in Hong Kong, Singapore, Belgium, etc. then I won't need to pay any capital gains tax when I sell my shares. I've heard that California will go after people who try to move to other states to avoid CGT, but I don't know if that applies to non-US citizens who have left the country. (Please let me know if you can recommend a good international tax expert.)

I've been living in many different countries since I left the US, so I don't have any strong ties to any specific countries (not even my home country). My shares could be worth about $5M after the IPO. If I wanted to sell most of them and buy VTSAX, then I might end up with a tax bill of $1.5M if I happened to live in a country with a 30% CGT (or if capital gains are treated the same as income.)

I don't think it's unethical for me to become a tax resident in some country with no capital gains tax. The alternative is paying a huge amount of money to some random country just because I happened to live there over 183 days.

I wouldn't mind moving back to California and paying the tax like everyone else, but it's impossible. There's no visa for people who do freelance work while building a bootstrapped startup. Even if I wanted to go back to a full-time job, it's extremely difficult to get an H-1B or O-1 visa. My startup would need to have at least $100k in ARR before I meet the salary requirements for an H-1B visa. I'd also need to take some investment so that my investors could be on the board and sponsor my H-1B application. My company is already making $50K ARR. I enjoy being independent and going at my own pace, so I don't really need any investors. (EDIT: I just learned about the E-2 and L-1A visas. I might look into those.)

If I was still living in California after the IPO, I might end up paying $1M+ in LTCG tax when I sell my shares. I would be very happy to pay this if I could move back now, get a green card, and work on my own company. I guess California and the federal government would be making a bet based on the likelihood of an IPO, which is still nowhere near guaranteed. This is also an extremely rare situation which only applies to a handful of people. But it would be nice if I could get a green card if I promised to live in the US and pay these taxes.

The other option is to just live in Hong Kong for > 6 months, sell my shares, and pay $0 in capital gains tax. Then I can move to the US on an EB-5 visa, which only costs $500k.
Selmi Triangle
Yea but this is sort of akin to cramming. Some of the deeper stuff in CS and engineering, at least for me, took time to ponder and spaced repetition. I don't think 1500 hours or whatever it is over 9 months is quite the same as 1500 over 2 years.
Anecdotally, this is true for me. My Arch machine runs for months with no issues. My XPS running 10 blue screens once every several weeks, and generally has issues after running too long.

To be fair it could be due to the general buggy-ness of the TB16 Thunderbolt dock.
I hope AI can assist in the knowledge gathering phases, and for civil cases I think it can be a huge value add.

For criminal cases though: the current judicial system is wayy too punitive. And an AI that would apply the letter of the law would likely criminalize society even more than what has already happened so far.

One happy scenario would be if the laws were more responsive and were changed to not be so punitive since the AI would have a high rate of conviction.

But then, you might have other failure scenarios. Rich people buying AI programmers and hackers to mess with the system.

T-mobile sells a KaiOS phone, the Alcatel Go Flip, that my mom reports works well. Her old phone was gsm only, and was starting to have coverage issues (because of band reprovisioning) and then died.

It has a menu item for updates, but claims to be running KaiOS 1.0 and doesn't have any updates available (wikipedia says 2.5 is the latest); so that's not super promising.

one question though, sed is not just search and replace, it is filter + search and replace (without going into arcane commands like n,N,x,h,etc) - filtering can be done based on regex, line number, combination of these two for blocks of line, etc.. Does sd support these?

"Using AI, it may be possible to capture less data and therefore scan faster, while preserving or even enhancing the rich information content of magnetic resonance images, says Facebook.

The key will be to train artificial neural networks to recognise the underlying structure of the images in order to fill in detail omitted from an accelerated scan."

Ah, right, what I want is for an ANN to invent information in a medical image. It's one thing to upscale textures in a game, but I can't see the use for this at all in a medical imaging device.
"What makes it even more complicated is that in a big org, knowing which tasks are important changes over time and with managers and manager's managers."

No, they don't. There is only one task in your job, to make your boss happy. Strangely, this is rarely achieved by good job performance but often by social skills or idiotic metrics. "How to manage your boss" is worth a read.
Most colonists fled religious persecution or were seeking economic opportunity, and in some cases were moving to a place with more onerous taxes.

The founding of independent government was about political self-determination. It most assuredly was not anti-tax. Nowhere in the newfound state governments was taxation limited; rather, AFAIU in all the new states the power to tax given to the legislature was absolute and unlimited! Federal taxation was limited, but that was out of concern for preserving the self-determination of each individual state.

The guiding principle behind early American politics was that representative democracy was sufficient to constrain unfair taxation. In fact, the inability of the federal government to fund itself through direct taxation of the people, instead having to rely on funding from state governments which it could not compel, is one of the most important reasons the Articles of Confederation were deemed a failure. The new U.S. Constitution conspicuously granted the new federal government direct taxation powers.

I think many people today, both liberal and conservative, would agree that the Founders' ideas about taxation were too simplistic. Conservatives might want more structural limitations, and liberals might want rules about distribution. But the Founders were definitely not anti-taxation. Early Americans weren't, "No taxation!" They were, "No taxation without representation!"
Yeah, the "community troubleshooting" on MacOS for anything beyond moderately complex is kind of funny, until you're the person trying to get help. Most of the time it involves five people stabbing in the dark with solutions that seem to solve the problem for 20% of the people involved, so its marked as the solution, even though it probably didn't actually solve anything, and those 20% just got lucky because the "solution" required a restart and that's what "fixed it".

I swear, every problem I've Googled, then subsequently ended up on SO or a github issues thread, someone has suggested "raise the open file count limit"; its like the the default "try this and then come back" answer.

Komodo Incorporates Dilithium: A Quantum-Secure Digital Signature Scheme
Cricket is a bit different to baseball because polishing the ball is an accepted part of the game. By polishing one side of the ball and allowing the other-side to naturally grow dull you alter the flight characteristics of the ball - it's how you can achieve movement through the air or 'swing'.

The ball is rarely replaced - it is very much intended for the condition of the ball to deteriorate over the course of an innings various tactics revolve around when to make bowling changes as some bowlers specialize with the 'new' ball which is shiny and hard and others have a style designed to exploit the older ball which is softer and more dull. There are certain time milestones that elapse in the match where captain can elect to replace a old worn ball with a new shiny ball.

The illegal part is ball tampering rubbing some foreign substance against the ball such as dirt or mud to weight it down or scuffing up the ball with something (A player on the Australian team was caught using a strip of sandpaper, which was a big scandal over here recently).
I was not able to negotiate cash for this, but I was able to negotiate more PTO in lieu of health benefits. Maybe try softer comp methods.

Regardless of the possible solutions for that one particular situation, my point was that odd unpredictable situations come up all the time in real world driving. We can't hope to code rules in advance for every possible situation. In the general case is it possible to handle unexpected situations without true AGI? That remains an unanswered question.

It is not widely known that HFCs are a really, really terrible greenhouse gas, with hundreds of times the infrared-retaining power of CO2 and hundreds of times the half-life in the atmosphere.

It is estimated that if all the HFCs currently in use ends up vented, it would account for half the total greenhouse effect. It's really important to make sure A/C systems don't leak. If you are ever in a position to specify a big system, get one that uses ammonia.

This is definitely true, and even Apple support can't really help you. It seems like they're only trained to troubleshoot the most basic stuff, and won't even do that if you have any "third party software" installed that they can blame.

However, if you try really hard and are lucky, you can sometimes downgrade. I recently had an awful freezing issue with a 2018 MBP that shipped with Sierra and persisted past a logic board replacement. I was eventually able to solve the issue by downgrading to High Sierra, but wasted a huge amount of time blindly troubleshooting and trying to figure out a downgrade procedure that worked.

Apple really needs to invest more in rigorous QA if it wants to continue down the path it's seems to want to follow.
Amusingly there's a pun here on "Zero-sum Era". This because "rei" is a common way to read the numeral zero, and "zero-wa" (using the same "wa" from the new era name) is the Japanese term for "zero-sum".

Perfect Setup for Research Papers Management
I'm not sure why you're mentioning public funds, seeing as it was never brought up. Regardless, public funds can only be used for secular education: https://www.pewforum.org/2009/05/14/shifting-boundaries5/. Public funds can be spent on religious schools provided that the funds go to secular education within those schools.

The above commenter immediately claimed that private religious schools are "indoctrination" - despite the previous comment only mentioning religious schools in passing (since they're generally less expensive than secular religious schools). That kind of intense blanket leap to a serious allegation is not indicative of reasonable view on the subject, regardless of one's opinions on public funds going towards religious schools.

- It's understandable that you're super-excited and willing to work 18-hour days to make your business a success. Probably not healthy, but understandable, because it's your baby. Don't expect that from others, because it's not their baby. They have their own babies (and hobby projects, friendships, etc.) that need their attention.

- Consider an employee with 4 kids in different schools, each with different after-school activities, a spouse who also works, and an ailing parent/grandparent who needs care and won't be around much longer. Try to target your expectations for workload and time available to be appropriate for that hypothetical employee, in such a way that they can still live their life and care for their family while also being an effective and valuable employee.

- If you're in software, plan for zero-downtime deployments from day one. Architect and develop for it from the beginning. Don't ask your employees to stay up all night doing deployments and maintenance during a 'quiet time' window in the middle of the night. It's not hard to do daytime deployments without taking the system offline if it's designed for it from the start, but it can be a major challenge to retrofit that ability.

- Continually reassess your deadlines and priorities. If your deadlines are actually hard due to external factors, consider what can reasonably be cut to make the deadline. If they're soft, consider focusing more on priorities of what is most important rather than deadline dates. Seek to relieve pressure rather than creating it, by focusing on what's most important.
