I don't doubt that we're approaching the max life expectancy that you can get from natural means... By that, I mean curing diseases and maintaining the right balance of nutrition.

But I think we'll start to see improvements that aren't about just staying healthy, but instead are about actually reversing "the aging process" and the things we barely understand about what makes us change as we get older.
Empty threats at best. The reality is that words, words, words on the internet are only worth so much.

Meanwhile, IRL it's much more likely to wind up in jail mostly by virtue of having a penis, than it is to ever get brutally raped by a total stranger. Internet or not.

And then there's that whole thing about man ass rape in prison, which is basically laughed at. So who's really getting victimized by society.

I slipped and wrote "higher eukaryotes" in relation to yeast and this is my post-doc's comments:

"that broke my heart :(
other eukaryotes? multicellular eukaryotes? animals? Whatever you like, but please, no "higher", the poor yeast have been evolving for a long time and are much better than us at fermenting beers..."

This is a great paper that touches on animal complexity, see "Developmental Depth" and "Structural depth"

From a cost perspective two lines at 90%+ are better then three at 66%. But considering that Panasonic is putting the brakes on might as well be the result rather than the cause of Tesla's struggles.
Ordinary people aren't buying cars today based purely on MPG so why do people think range, battery efficiency etc is going to be a primary reason in future ?

It's far more likely to be just one of many factors. And Tesla really isn't great in many of them e.g. interior design, build quality, easy of service, product availability, brand cachet, etc. And now they have to worry if Tesla will even be around in 5-10 years.
When C was created there was already 10 years experience writing safe OSes in ESPOL, NEWP, PL/I, PL/S, Mesa, BLISS and a couple of other variants, outside Bell Labs.

The big difference was that those OSes versus UNIX costed real money.

When Gerard originally approached me, he gave me what was essentially answer to that question that I interpreted as claiming that he had achieved quantum supremacy on a classical computer. When I asked him to confirm this, he did. But the problem is, it turns out that Gerard didn't know what quantum supremacy was. He thought it was "hype-y / marketing terminology". It isn't. It's a technical term with a precise meaning [2].

So this whole mess is, AFAICT, just a misunderstanding.

> All the listed weaknesses also have benefits. For instance it is easy to get a substring without need to copy.

To make substring in some other languages, you need to store pointer to beginning of the substring and length of substring.

To make substring in C, you need to store pointer to beginning of the substring and put '\0' into original string.

I was actually more looking for practical issues. Usually the code that I write doesn't even handle strings a lot. Maybe I'm just using other languages for when I do that or maybe I'm using other approaches where others would use strings or maybe I just subjectively don't find them so bad as others. I'd just like to see exactly what people are complaining about so I could find out why I usually don't.

I doubt it, most people aren't even willing to pay the small price of feeling lactic acid when exercising. Or not consuming excess calories.

Quality of life matters too. If you have children, I would be surprised if most people would want to spend their personal wealth for an extra 5 to 10 geriatric bed ridden years. It only happens now because the taxpayers pay for it. I'd rather pass those resources onto my kids if it had to come out of my pocket.
You could start by rendering static images in SVG as a first step?

Vega https://vega.github.io/vega/ or vega-lite https://vega.github.io/vega-lite/examples/ might also be good intermediate step.

Those are based on writing a declarative description of the chart(s) you want in a domain specific languag. They will be less flexible than d3, but should make it simpler to get good results as long as you don't want anything too custom.

Disclaimer: I haven't used them myself, but they are from the same university research group that Mike Bostock (d3 author) used to be in, and I have seen him plugging them.

You will likely find any of these approaches quite different to matplotlib. Hopefully in a good way.

Despite having suggested these alternatives, I would actually strongly recommend learning d3. It's really good.
Storing the length of a string alongside the string is a viable option in C, it's up to you to do it yourself though (whereas Java and almost every other language does it for you). See https://github.com/phusion/nginx/blob/master/src/core/ngx_st..., used by NGINX.
Here is the lesson I gave a friend at a bus station waiting for a bus. First explain how a computer works in very basic terms because most people don't know. Don't assume they know how a cpu, how memory, or their screen works, even basically. They know none of that. Assume they think a computer is a magic black box.

Then using the same terms you used to explain how a computer works, sort an array.

I'd love to have my VIM with my config just available as a web service to use it on every device! That's what I already love about NextCloud and the likes - just one install and every device can access it. If you know how you can also make it secure enough for every day stuff - I think to be really secure going offline is not enough anymore.
That is doable. The cloths we wear and send to wash are nowhere that dirty as it was 50 years ago. Some smart filter would actually recycle the water.

In defence of NPM it is Javascript that lacks a decent core library like you’d get with .Net or Java, you just get the very basics in the J.S. language (where as most languages have even less in the language but bundle a good class library). This means you need leftpad, moment, etc. stuff you don’t need in .net or Java.
My point was that this is not possible as the trained layers are intrinsically tightly coupled. You can't combine pre-trained sub networks in arbitrary manner without retraining. In all the standard practice of reusing pretrained networks, you would take a pretrained network or part of it, and train some layers around it to match what you need, optionally fine-tuning the pretrained layers as well. If you want use a different pre-trained embedding model, you retrain the rest of the network.

In your example, the sentiment layer will work without re-training or finetuning only if preceeded by the exact same language-embed layer as the one it was trained on. You can't swap in another layer there - even if you get a different layer that has the exact same dimensions, the exact same structure, the exact same training algorithm and hyperparameters, the exact same training data but a different random seed value for initialization, then it can't be a plug-in replacement. It will generate different language embeddings than the previous one - i.e. the meaning of output neuron #42 being 1.0 will be completely unrelated to what your sentiment layer expects in that position, and your sentiment layer will output total nonsense. There often (but not always!) could exist a linear transformation to align them, but you'd have to explicitly calculate it somehow e.g. through training a transformation layer. In the absence of that, if you want to invoke that particular version of sentiment layer, then you have no choice about the preceeding layers, you have to invoke the exact same version as was done during the training.

Solving that dependency problem requires strong API contracts about the structure and meaning of the data being passed between the layers. It might be done, but that's not how we commonly do it nowadays, and that would be a much larger task than this project. Alternatively, what could be useful is that if you want to pipe the tweets to sentiment_model_v123 then a system could automatically look up in the metadata of that model that it needs to transform the text by transformation_A followed by fasttext_embeddings_french_v32 - as there's no reasonable choice anyway.
A bit of rope is charming because you can build practically anything out of rope. For example, you can build skyscrapers out of bamboo and rope. But if you want that skyscraper to be useful, durable, safe, etc it may be better to use the rope for what rope is best at, and use other materials and tools for what they're best at.

Markdown has a syntax for bullet lists, why not use that?

The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to chose from. It would be nice if there were a single light weight markup language.

In many contexts you need something where text can be reflowed. Hacker News is a good example. It would be bad if all comments with long lines would show up with scroll bars.

So if the output is going to be reformatted anyhow, then it is better to use a light weight markup language that provides a quick way to provide the most common rendering hints.

And at that point your input text is source.

Markdown is designed around the assumption that you are writing text for humans to read. Thus for a paragraph break, leave a blank line.
The idea is to also mitigate the source of the inflammation, so you both goes short term and long term.
The language could make those guarantees if it wanted to. This might add overhead on some architectures, but would be possible. An example is integer overflow. If we limit to machines using two's complement (thus any machine architecture used during last thirty years) this could be fully defined easily. And if C is ever used on a other architecture they could build a workaround using some form of oberflow trap. (Since CPU design would take C into consideration)

Or evaluation order - `i = ++i;` could easily be defined in some way. But might prevent some niche optimisations by the compiler.

Of course by C's nature there are limits (C won't be able to detect use after free or similar without changing language notably) but there is room where UB could be reduced, if it was seen as neccisary.
The terms are in common use since the 80s at least (no, Microsoft did not invent these terms with D3D). You can prove this in google scholar.

In fact for 3D rendering, retained mode was touted as a the new way forward, there was even a standard predating OpenGL called PHIGS, a retained mode system.. OpenGL was the worse is better (also PHIGS had many limitations basically limiting its use to CAD) backlash promoting its immediate mode in the early 90s.

I think the way to read the response of the Faculty Comittee is this. He was an adjunct he hasn't earned the protection of academic freedom. He gets to keep his job if he fulfills what we feel like is necessary to be a member of our community. We feel like he's a negative experience for students and we don't think his addition is worthwhile. I'm all for not indulging the carebears but the message "You were allowed to stick around after you failed because we thought we could use you and felt sorry for you. But we don't like you and some of our students don't like you. Go find another job." That is not a carebear handling of things if he wanted to have academic freedom he had a right to get tenure. He's an adjunct he needs to act like it. This is very much like Augusta where the don't have formal rules some things are simply frowned upon and its your responsibility to understand the culture of the club. It was his responsibility to understand the culture of the faculty in his tenuous position. That is a very important lesson for him and for students by his example.
To be fair to them, the questions you had are mainly about the minute legal definitions of the text they had written. Our industry is too young to have them defined that well.

On the other hand I think the questions are generally quite concrete and tangent to each other so there’s some clarity to their line of thought.

What makes it a bit funny is the fact that “most probably”, your business loosing your data today has got nothing to do with the fact whether you encrypted it or not at all.
Fun fact: this is bullshit.

Large companies, especially public ones and those doing business with the government, follow different sets of rules specifying retention times. For anything that has an impact on accounting, the minimum is usually 5 years. If you’re trying to get an FAA approval for anything that flies, it’s much longer.

Bonus: the 180 days mentioned above is for third party service providers as the cutoff of considering information to be “in transit”. Is has absolutely no bearing on in-house systems which have first-party protection.

I'd recommend mentioning "fuzz testing" and "fuzzing" in the description to help people find it.

Simple and Sample are very close in spelling.

The sample makes sense, but a big use case for this would be testing APIs, and in that case, a JSON object is commonly modelled after the attributes of a class. So in that scenario, simply randomizing the keys would just blow up, which is not useful for testing. The kinds of errors you usually want to catch are small glitches.

I needed to describe the patterns that JSON could take when converting to and from native types, and I did that here [1] so it might be a useful structure to consider. But, roughly, you have several common cases:

1. atoms

2. homogenous arrays (same type of all elements)

3. heterogeneous arrays (element X has type Y, bounded length)

4. homogenous objects (same value type for all elements)

5. heterogeneous objects (key X has type Y, required + optional keys)

6. alternatives

Implement those and you probably cover any structure someone could throw at it. You'll also want to make it easy to distinguish between required and optional keys.

If you take a page from QuickCheck[2], it's nice to be able to implement a "reduce" feature. The idea is you produce something complex that breaks it, and simplify it to find a minimal test case.

You might go both ways... generate a valid pattern and add crap to it to see how tolerant it is. Or possibly start with reasonable length strings and make it possible to make them longer and longer.

My point was that there's no reason Tesla needs to be first to market with self driving cars, they already have a unique selling point in their electric cars. The car industry is full of suppliers doing all kinds of advanced stuff. Ferrari uses dampers from MagneRide and Öhlins, brakes from Brembo, transmissions from Graziano, and so on. Rimac makes hybrid drive trains, Bosch makes ABS and ESC, few brands makes their own seats, and so on.

Bosch have their own autonomous driving development. I don't know how far along they are compared to Tesla, partly because Elon likes to boast where others prefer to hold back, but so what if Tesla would've been a few years later with self driving than others?

1) "assuming there's no trust issues involved" is doing an awful lot of load-bearing there

2) One of the things that people keep starting "free speech controversies" over is the idea that some groups are intrinsically less intelligent or apt than others. When, as a member of such a minority group, you are confronted with this idea, what can you conclude from the suggestion that you are intrinsically less intelligent than your classmates?

I think I want income inequality. Wealth inequality might be totally meaningless as wealth is guesstimate not exact value usually, e.g. look here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_distribut..., is hard to say anything at all from Gini Wealth.
