Hey Justin, I'm recruiting for a 100% remote react role with a payments app - https://stackraft.com/job/Pay-By-Group/Senior-Front-End-Engi... Let me know if this interests you.
Oh, I forgot one of the most important changes in the deal. If you want to post inside the subscription service you can't include Calls to Action (with some exceptions). That's a huge cost for a lot of authors who are only writing in order to promote other things or collect email address. It's generally been a good deal for readers though, who are seeing less marketing pieces in their feeds.
Even Apple, with its distaste for background processing, lets you declare an app with "VOIP" mode or something, where iOS manages the socket for you. You get access to simple server-based signaling, and as a bonus, you get to avoid the whole push-notification system.

Google just seems to have glommed everything into FCM. In the FCM console, push-notifications are really treated as a user-engagement/advertising thing. Throttling and spam prevention makes sense for that.

Maybe Android has something like the iOS VOIP mode that doesn't involve annoying the user with scary battery notifications, but I couldn't come up with anything at the time.

The most interesting thing to watch will be how sales progress over the first full year of deliveries in each market.

Obviously the first quarter will be a rush of deliveries in each market as the backlog clears. Then there will be a trough where everyone who was an early adopter has got theirs and the late majority starts to consider all these TM3s they see scooting around.

How quickly Tesla recovers from the trough and how high the long term market share will go is absolutely the Billion dollar question.

Reportedly strong demand this quarter in North America points to the TM3 potentially having broad appeal beyond the EV zealots, but it’s very much too early to tell.

If you know the answer to this question, it’s the difference between TSLA at $10 and TSLA at $500. I have my own opinion, and I put some money on it. But I’m a TM3 owner, I absolutely adore the machine, and I think it’s 5 years ahead of any competition and is going to absolutely clean up as people realize it’s sensational to drive, it doesn’t actually cost $80k (can’t tell you how many people I’ve talk to that think that) and in particular the long term TCO is actually downright economical.

I think what your saying is that facebook makes it easier for the government to come after you, if you blow a whistle. But, if the gov came after you, i think they'd be able to get you if they really wanted you.

And basically, that FB monitoring reduces our willingness to share who we really are (at least the edgy non-conformist stuff)

For sex toys and other non-conformist stuff, signout of facebook and use Google in-cognito mode. You don't want that stuff on Facebook anyways.
American here: I when given the challenge of "select all the images with storefronts", typically they are not US based. I almost never speak/understand the language, but if there's a big sign on the building, I select it because it's most likely a storefront.
IP addresses with 0 as the first octet are invalid and hopefully will not be routed. I prefer them for hosts files over localhost because localhost has to wait and time out, but 0.0.0.0 will fail right away.
We find that carefully picking app boundary is a big deal to reduce that pain. Also, performance has to be a first class citizen in your org. Since users will be page refreshing a lot, you can't tolerate 5 second load times. With that said, we find that techies care a lot more about fancy client side routing and not having page transitions than users do.

There are a few places where its critical though (places where users go back and forth hundreds of times a day), and the routes are too big to keep as a single app while keeping the benefits of our architecture. For that, having separate builds, each generating their own final scripts, but dumping them on the same page is a decent compromise. You don't get all the benefits (you will have a single page, so dependencies have to be compatible and play well with each other. One script can cause another to break, etc), but the user doesn't pay the price.

Thats a last resort, but sometimes it has to be done.
Use MRI then.
It's not that hard if your taxes are simple (standard deduction, maybe some capital gains). Keep in mind the filing companies have an incentive to make the process complicated.
I don't consider something backed up unless there are at least 3 copies of something in at least 2 locations. Also, replicated dbs are not backups, but may be the best available option when you have too much data to reliably backup en masse.

I've done replication on write scenarios. Generally when I've setup mongo or elasticsearch for searching/read performance, I'll also push to a fixed JSON+GZ on S3 or similar. It tends to work pretty well as a fallback for larger data scenarios as a fallback. Had to use it once, and was so glad to have it.
The usual way to support a larger instruction set than is actually implemented in the chip is to "trap" unimplemented instructions, and then emulate them with a subroutine in the runtime library. A trap is like an interrupt, but generated from the instruction stream.

Of course this is a lot slower than the instruction might have been, but at least the code runs and produces the right answer.

Sometimes the trap does not change the execution sequence of externally visible instructions, but instead directs the machine to execute a sequence of internal microcode, while externally it looks like the machine has stalled. Indeed, on some machines all instructions trap this way.

Modern CISC chips do a more sophisticated form of the latter, where RISCs have typically avoided it for most or all operations.

So, whether and how RISC-V implementations emulate extensions will vary. Emulation generally doesn't produce very nice results, for this kind of operation -- the purpose of the instruction is to give users access to custom machinery wired into the core, for speed, and without the machinery the programmer might have preferred to achieve the results some other way.
Sounds like you should spend some time in a trade. It's still worth doing don't get me wrong but there are more risks, they are harder to avoid, and with worse consequences.
OK, Discord specifically is terrible. I login in incognito mode from the same location/browser every time, and have to deal with Captcha most of the time.
You're presupposing that privacy is a commodity, but I'm suggesting that it should be more sacred than that.

> In the end this will simply serve as another payment option for those who value their privacy more than cash.

The problem with this is it makes privacy a luxury. Should those living paycheck to paycheck have to choose between their privacy and finding things on the Internet?

If privacy is a commodity, then this is fine. But then, so is the status quo: privacy is currency to be exchanged for services, and companies should stretch that currency as far as possible. There is no sound moral argument against what Google/Facebook/etc are doing. The current advertising model may not work for everyone, but who cares? The market has spoken.

If privacy is a human right, then this is obviously insufficient. We can't allow companies to exploit people who can't afford it by making it opt-in; we need to strictly enforce it for everyone.
Way back it was always through word of mouth that one discovered things. I still hold it true. You may have 10 friends how have their nieche and once in a while they recommend something they think you want to listen to.

I think that the music matter more based on whom recommended it. An algorithm won't have the same effect. It's missing the storyline on how you ended up with watching x movie or listening to y song.
Yea, I do essentially all of those things they recommend avoiding. So there is a definite chance I'm making my self a night owl by not using a routine.
This is sure a way to go too.

I prefer scripts to do monkey job for me instead of templates. They take html as input and produce html as output. It's trivial text processing. But this way every text pattern, even that I would have never thought of beforehand, may become a 'template' in the future.

But the Mac Pro wasn’t meant for your average developer.
[...]
Apple didn’t say they were “listening to developers”. They
said they were listening to pro users.

Yes. That's the entire point. Developers are grumbling because Apple's listening to other pro users, but not them.

I feel like you're at a point where you completely understand Apple's stance ("we are listening to some pro users, but not developers in particular") and some developers' complaints ("boy, we wish Apple would listen and give us a relatively affordable desktop class machine, without a monitor") but are still, for some reason, arguing just for the thrill of it.

They even made the Mac Mini much more of a midrange computer than it was before.

More of a midrange computer, but not really comparable to high-end consumer desktop performance. It may be illuminating to take a look at other manufacturer's machines using this CPU. If you don't feel like clicking the link, I'll tell you: $1,000 laptops.

https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=Core+i7-8700B

For a few hundred more (roughly $1400) you can get a desktop PC with a high-end desktop Core i7, giving you anywhere from 20%-60% more CPU performance, high-end GPU, etc. I'd pay $2K for an Apple version of that, but to option an iMac up to similar specs will have you pushing $3K.
I think there is a huge difference between having this info publically accessible where people can judge and mock you for it, and simply having it used statistically to sell you things. I don't care what the computer thinks about me.

Yeah, I occasionally have to visit folks and walk them through extremely basic things like sorting data in Excel and creating pivot tables (very much not my job, I'm general purpose BI development mixed with statistical analysis & ML) but I never begrudge those meetings because it means the user is trying to become empowered to work more independently. No matter the specific skill level, that's something I can get behind.
All of which I see in Chrome as well. Literally the same experience in the linked post.

Providing a Real-Time Compliment for Git-Based Collaboration
I agreed with you until the last line.

Can all people be "saved"? Probably not, but I don't know that that's a valid excuse to get into this scary nightmare of "we can do whatever we want with these people".

First off, people are wrongly convicted of crimes, even heinous ones like rape and murder. Fortunately, it's not as common nowadays since DNA is pretty cool, but it still happens, and I don't know that I feel comfortable doing something like waterboarding to someone that might be innocent.

But honestly, even if we could somehow guarantee that we never have an innocent person in jail, I still think it's wrong to mistreat a human more than a certain level of punishment. Whether or not we can "save" them is sort of irrelevant in my mind.

Admittedly this is a more "feels-based" argument, but I think that the more dignity that we treat our prisoners with, the less apologetics we'll have to deal with to future generations. I genuinely can't see history looking kindly on the conditions of current private prisons.
Also, I imagine that Medium will eventually switch their payment terms to reward SEO and that might be a good deal for some people.

I just made an offer for someone's back catalog that was based on $7 CPM for their SEO traffic plus whatever they would have made in Medium's performance program. I think it would have worked out to about $12 CPM on what they would have gotten on their own.

That's probably not the peak CPM they could get if they went their own way. But it's not a bad deal given that they don't have to do any work besides just write.

Wouldn't it make sense to also implement mesh networking locally, so you wouldn't need a line-of-sight connection to every subscriber?
>You can't have all the algorithms implemented in hardware. How well would your CPU work for any algorithm unknown in advance?

That depends. There are, clearly, however, some algorithms that are common enough to warrant inclusion in hardware. I feel you're not arguing in good faith if you believe basic arithmetic is warranted, but something extremely common, such as support for arbitrary-length arithmetic or exception systems aren't.

>Do you have any benchmarks comparing Lisp processors to ARMs and MIPS in day-to-day tasks like compression algorithms, codecs, 3d rendering?

No.

>Do you have any resources on that?

I dislike Wikipedia, but here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_machine

>Would it work for complex convolutions (e.g. arrays of arrays of complex nums convoluted with arbitrary kernels)?

If the hardware supported it. If not, you'd likely build it out of the hardware support for simpler arrays. Having arrays of arrays is an easy solution, since then each axis could be checked in turn.

>Letting the CPU do so, I'm not sure if it would be as efficient as in compile time.

Again, it's not just about efficiency, but safety. This is an entire class of error prevented in hardware. That's useful.

Solutions to dynamically tune seemingly basic, but important, 'super-parameter'?
I have an algorithm that I'm very content with and am not looking to switch away from the basic model(s) or technology behind them. At the same time I have figured out that the performance of my algorithm can vary wildly depending on the specific values fed to 1 or 2 of what I'll call 'super-variables'. Unfortunately, the solution for me cannot be as simple as just globally choosing the 'best-fit for the most cases', as that is just overly broad for what I'm trying to achieve.

I'm trying not make any assumptions as I try to figure out how to solve this problem but I guess I do have a deep preference for simplicity over complexity even if it costs a little bit in absolute performance metrics. That is to say that I'm very much hoping that there could be a non-machine-learning/AI solution because that would just feel like overkill (e.g., I've gotten this far without those technologies and this seems like detail-level work), but I guess I also have to be open to those options too since I'm currently stuck without a paddle. Please advise.
By saying that there is no reason for defense companies to outside of war, you are vastly underestimating the kind of projects they are involved in.

As mentioned in another post... could manage the backups from another server (not in the network) with a cron job that grabs a snapshot from the docker server's shared volume directory and forwards it to it's final destination.

Haven't expected that.

The author really glossed over the reasons for the communications ban imposed on the terrorist prisoner - multiple people he spoke with ended up committing terrorist acts. Seems like a good enough reason to completely cut him off. In addition, the author really stretches when she complains that they brought in a gallon of liquid to feed him. If you’ve tried to feed a prisoner multiple times and you know they’re going to deliberately vomit it up, of course you’ll bring extra. There’s enough going on here where the author doesn’t need to add in things that actually seem logical, because now I’m questioning everything she wrote and how much of it was exaggerated.

TL;DR: If you have legal residency in Switzerland, they'd rather let you serve your time outside of prison; but without residency, you'd probably leave the country if they don't put you in prison. Maybe blame Schengen but it seems most Swiss would rather have borders that are faster to cross...

> The number of foreign detainees has increased significantly. 30 years ago, 56 percent of prison inmates were foreigners, most recently 71 percent. Weber says: "The legislator has increasingly introduced alternatives to prison for Swiss prisoners. I'm thinking of charitable work or electronically supervised house arrest. "

> However, such measures would only be suitable for people with a low risk of escape, ie persons with a secured, legal stay in Switzerland. These are mostly Swiss, but not foreign offenders resident abroad.

> Exactly the proportion of such criminal tourists has recently increased sharply. Over the last decade, they already account for the majority, 52 percent of all inmates. The society has become generally more mobile in the last 30 years, the same applies to offenders, the criminal law professor. "You can travel cheaper than before. So it is more likely that they go from, for example, Eastern European countries to Switzerland for a few days and then travel back."

Barkley’s (1997) model of ADHD emphasizes inhibitory control (i.e. inhibition of prepotent response, stopping an ongoing response, and interference control) as the primary neuropsychological impairment, which underlies secondary impairments in working memory and related functions

Trouble managing and structuring time, remembering things, paying attention to relevant cues, and avoiding impulsive behavior are some of the defining factors of ADD.

Have you considered that others with ADD have more extreme symptoms on a different axis from you, or perhaps their life experience and stress have amplified underlying proclivities? Or maybe they have mutations that make normal medication not effective.
