I have a friend that has just left France to drive to Mongolia in a Renault 4L (Lovingly pronounce "Catrelle" in French) - loosely a "sister car" to the 2CV.

We spent a few weeks driving around the French and Spanish Pyrennees in it. I'm not at all a car person, but fell in love with. Its quirks and personality make it a pleasure to drive. The time you spend broken down is balanced with the people you meet who all have a story about this car.

Buzzing around the mountain trails and getting jealous looks from ferrari drivers are all part of the perks.

There's a huge passion behind these cars - they even hold annual rallies for pushing these cars way beyond their intended limits.

I would assume they are leaving a decent chunk on the table. I've never bought something from Ikea online because of how terrible the experience is. I can think of two times when I found something close enough to what I wanted at a competitors store online because I didn't want to buy online at Ikea, and wasn't going to be close enough to one of their stores.

Going back to OPs point. Google is real good at associating search query to search result. Every time you search and click on something, google learns that association.

So it could very well be that as more users adopt the new language/framework in the first couple of weeks they have taught google those associations.

Google isn’t a search company. They are a distributed machine learning company that make most of their money from learning what people want and showing relevant ads to them.

CLISP doesn't work on Solaris either and I've no FreeBSD nor the spare time to figure out how to get it to work.

The only Lisp which works is CCL but when I tried to build SBCL with it, the build failed spectacularly.

I then went to use CCL but all the getopts examples are for SBCL and since I'm still learning Lisp I couldn't figure out how to make them work on CCL. So I'm busted.

Post scriptum: it's been around six months since I've opened those bug reports for i86pc and sparc and there are still no new releases:

http://www.sbcl.org/platform-table.html

I wouldn't have written what I have about SBCL and dismal support for Solaris if I hadn't tried to build, debug, package and research it and research throughly I did. As a professional engineer, the first thing I did was read all the documentation and all the INSTALL instructions I could find as well as any other documentation and bug reports I could locate using multiple search engines; the official documentation is very poor for such a big and serious project and in my opinion as an engineer, not very professional at all, especially when compared to corporate documentation efforts. This creates an additional hurdle for someone looking to master Lisp and do so using SBCL. Pity the two intense weeks of my spare time; what a waste of my life since I'm none the smarter or more knowledgeable for it.
Because Java wasn't funded fully enough to receive the languange design attention necessary to prevent such an error.
I think a lot of this is due to developers having an odd fit in the office class system. They don't direct other humans, so they're not management; but they're not process-followers either who could be treated as interchangeable. They're not union labour and they're not chartered professionals. They're at the "bottom" of the hierarchy but their individual insight and contribution is indispensable. They tend to get high pay, but not participate in the normal status hierarchy - "normal" professionals buy nicer suits if you pay them more.

The perks are the claim to status. At the same time many people's choice of perks is a bit infantilising, which confuses people outside it.

(There is another, nastier kind of "perk" in many jobs which a few developers indulge in, which is the freedom to abuse lower status staff without real reproach.)

Really like this! I remember the musician Burial would sample covers on YouTube of songs he wanted to sample with next to 0 views. So you had this double whammy of getting the vibe of the original song and the intimacy of a bedroom recording wrapped into the sample. Feel like there's so much potential to get neat stuff outta the onslaught of personal footage on youtube.

I guess on one level it's invasive as hell but in an increasingly streamlined online experience it's nice to get glimpses at all the other stuff that's going on out there.
Reminds me of about three years ago, a buddy who does Cybersecurity for a very large military base was tasked with blocking AWS from their network due to porn.

He found it quite humorous, warned them of the consequences, got everything in writing(including his warnings), and executed his orders.

The base commander was not amused and the blocks were removed in about 12 hours. Unfortunately, the responsible party never suffered more than egg on their face for the stupidity.

They tried to shift blame to my buddy, but he had dotted his i's and crossed his t's. He did get a nice one-on-one with the Base Commander, where he was able to lay everything out.
But it's still dubious when a board member is calling out a competitor for a problem that they also share. It looks a lot less like a sincere desire for protection and more like calling the cops on somebody you don't like.
True enough. Both parties seem to know that they are trying to deceive passengers though. Both are at fault if you ask me.

About half the country disagrees with you. I guess that means we should do it to poke them in the eye.
No, the author covers this pretty well:

> And lastly, something that is probably the most uncomfortable fact about all this; it doesn’t feel as good to donate money. As much as we like to pretend that charitable giving is a selfless act, a lot of it is driven by the human need to feel special and magnanimous.

> As donations go, it’s much more satisfying to donate a minivan filled with Ragu than to send a $100 e-transfer.

> Charities know this, and it’s another reason why they are so hesitant to pooh-pooh canned food drives, despite the extra logistical cost. Non-profits know that people get a buzz from loudly dropping $6 worth of cans into an office hamper, and they’re happy to channel that urge towards something good.

I personally donate cash to GiveDirectly. Money is always best.
Counter point: Donate in a way that encourages you to be generous.

If it's letting your kids spend their allowance on canned tuna for the food-bank then so be it.
Java does have quite nice classes for doing that sort of thing, but those classes need to be able to get and set the raw values somehow.

And, of course, users may need to convert their own binary formats to strings (compression and the like). At some point you'll be dealing with raw values.
* avoiding object-oriented programming

* avoiding testing

* avoiding security

* avoiding documentation

* fixating on known platforms

* a highly inflated ego

* demeaning other programmers

* arguing with experienced programmers during code review

* using the word 'maths' (the plural form of math is mathematics)

None of this classifies you as a 10x programmer and your comment has 'arrogant' written all over it. You have expert syndrome.
Well he was mocking Rumsfeld there a bit, and added "Unknown-Knowns" to fill in the last quadrant of the 4x4 matrix, basically saying it is the ideology or subconscious at work.

But I think the idea is a bit different in that Polanyi's paradox is at a higher level of awareness. Say if someone can play chess but may not able to effectively teach it. Or the linked article in the wiki has jigsaw puzzles as an example.

Žižek was talking about deeper processes. Things like people acting according to say Christian ethics while rationally disavowing them and saying they oppose them. His traditional joke about is Niels Bohr with his horseshoe above the door: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTAp3KZwYl0

> What if those same companies are helping to power the NSA illegally collecting and storing data on Americans without a warrant?

What if those same companies were making nuclear bombs and blowing up large cities? Neither happens, so I cannot understand your point.
This really is not exactly the same. For nonprofits that do things like run big events, it's often a lot better to have 15 motivated event volunteers than 15 part-time temps hired for the day. They're about equal in skill, but one is free and actually cares about the cause.

I say this as someone who was involved in organizing many large events for an animal advocacy org in the Twin Cities metro.

Volunteers are also better at many other tasks such as outreach, for example handing out leaflets. For that sort of thing you need a lot of bodies, and people who care about the cause will do a much better job.

I say this as someone who spent about 19 years helping run a local animal advocacy org in the Twin Cities metro. Ironically, what we could have spent money on was hiring staff to reduce the load on people like me ;)
As someone with a desk job, mindlessly sorting cans for an hour actually seems relaxing.
It's difficult to blame Chinese students for not wanting to stay when they're being met with outright hostile rhetoric from the political establishment. Economic considerations completely aside, no one wants to live and work in that kind of environment.
Instagram: Adaptive process and memory management for Python web servers
I’m always wary of the hip companies that offer all the perks and try and seem cool. It’s not altruistic. They expect in return to work you like crazy. I would much rather work somewhere boring where I work a solid day and go home, don’t have to think about work on the weekends with solid monetary compensation. Free donuts and coffee can’t make up for lost personal time nor can it pay for a mortgage. I’m a professional, treat me like one.
Probably, but in that case, they should be honest and just have a single receptacle.

OTOH, fast food joints are possibly one of the handful of places you could actually do recycling right, since you have a pretty uniform stream of items, thus limiting the need to sort. So instead of having a "recycling" bin, they could have a bin for plastic cutlery, and a bin for straws, and a bin for drink lids, with everything else going in a common trash.

Getting thousands of identical contaminated plastic forks that just need a wash before being melted down is probably a lot more appealing to a recycler than getting a bag that's a big jumble of contaminated junk.

I wonder how much of the low age is because it was a relatively new organization at the time. As a counter example, NASA's current average age is 50+ in many organizations.

It's a blessing and a curse. Aging organizations retain lots of organizational knowledge but also tend to exhibit a lot of stagnation/complacency.

Eclipt – A complete library to develop complete CLI programs
"High-volume users (think: Microsoft Corp.’s Bing) should pay Google nominal fees set by regulators. That gives Google another incentive for maintaining a superior index."

How do these nominal fees hold a candle to the advertising dollars they rake in? Their dominance in advertising fuels their R&D to keep their algorithms superior. They have to maintain their superiority to fuel to keep the advertising dollars flowing. If suddenly anyone can offer Google results then a lot of that ad money dries up. Then the R&D money dries up.
I'm not entirely sure what you're arguing. Are you saying it's ok to treat nonskilled workers badly because they have the opportunity to gain skills?
Honestly wondering because I've fortunately not needed to budget this closely before: OP said $350 for food and "500$ left for things like going out, clothes, etc.". Does that not cover what you bring up? ~$11.60 per day for food seems enough for a healthy three meals a day for one person - a quick google shows numbers like $250/month on a "moderate budget" for food. I feel if you're eating one $11 meal every day that's probably a good place to start cutting down on the spending. Is $500 not enough for toiletries, dental, clothes, etc.? Looking at the past month of my own spending, I bought a couple rolls of toilet paper, a tube of toothpaste, body soap, no new clothes, some skincare stuff, and probably $150 worth of insurance. Maybe I forgot a ton of things but I don't think I spent close to $500 on the "extra necessities", as I would call them.

Just to be clear, I don't disagree with you that $21600 is too little to live on. But I mostly buy OP's numbers, which makes me wonder what I'm missing. Debt payments, maybe?
Addressing model bias by adjusting which data the model has access to is a bad idea. Tweaking the data so that the model output looks equitable is going to make your model across the board. You should train your model on what you have and then add explicit biases to the classifier for different groups. That way you have the best model and are clear on your biases.

If this model is equally accurate for black and white women that means that either race is not a factor in predictability, that it is a factor but easily adaptable into a model, or race is a factor and they’ve reduced their ability to diagnose one group in the name of equity.

The linked article suggests accuracy gains are due to better risk models, that use more than age. I’m not sure if that means it’s tied into the image neural net. Would like to see false positive rate too.
You need a baseline of comfort to be empathetic. You can't be very empathetic when your kids are hungry.
Humans are also pretty lousy at predicting how other human brains will react, though. I don't see how that's an example of the Paradox. With a woefully incomplete model, obviously you'll get inaccurate predictions.
“... provide more data for the real moneymaker.”

This is a supposition - while perhaps it seems to makes sense, seems true, “must be true”, it doesn’t mean it is true!

Unless you worked on search quality at google you really aren’t in a position to know if, say, google cloud, or android provides useful signals to search (outside of the signals they’d collect anyways if they were different companies).

One thing people are obscuring is just how crazily effective AdWords are. They work for the advertisers, and they earn google like 70+% of the revenue. Confirmed via sec filings which does break that out. Go play with creating an AdWords campaign and try to infer just how much data google really needs to deliver those ads - it’s less than you’d think.

In short: this overall move is more wishful thinking than solidly reasoned. Surveying the field of streaming video, given the amount of studio driven consolidation, is there really a tons of competitors being held down and will spring up? I am skeptical.
Well, I know the charity administrator can just pay himself with a cash donation, but they can't do much with cans of food other than either distribute them or destroy them.
As far as I know constitutionally we can't, there's too many issues, they're US citizens, I don't believe states can legally secede, and a bunch of other stuff.

By going after the supply chain instead of the actual offenders? That does smell a bit armchair-activisty, to be honest.
Forcing them to give anyone access to their index at a fair price wouldn't be unprecedented. In Europe that's a common method to deal with infrastructure: anyone can lay a phone line, but you have to sell access to competitors at a fair price.

Alternatively we could just publicly fund a crawler. A project like Common Crawl, just bigger and better, with some simple indexes prebuilt.

It was difficult to change my mind about it, and I still find the fact almost offensive, but I was confronted last year with hard evidence that the most efficient way to help people in need is direct no strings attached gifts of cash money. It doesn't appeal to one's ego but the reality is poor people generally use money to improve their lives and frivolous spending does not increase when given cash.
More specifically, Lyttle Lytton is about writing that first sentence within a particular word count.

Most anybody is smart enough to understand anything, they just typically aren't knowledgeable enough to grasp it quickly. Stupidity, in the other hand, is misapplied intelligence. You willfully go the opposite direction from the proper one. AI is ignorant if it hasn't been trained, stupid if it is trained but has insufficient direction.

At least to my mind.
A COSPAS SARSAT MEOSAR is essentially a separate platform that just happens to be traveling on the same vehicle.

As deployed today the two needn't have any electronic connection although they do.

Eventually a MEOSAR is intended to use the accompanying navigation transmitter to send replies from ground SAR. Initially an acknowledgement ("We see your distress beacon" and by implication "somebody will try to help") and perhaps later more.

But that requires proof of concept and then newer beacons as today's beacons, even the ones with GPS (many rely on COSPAS SARSAT to triangulate their position itself) do not know such an acknowledgment might arrive or how to interpret it.
In CA they charge a bottle fee for plastic water bottles. If you can return those for a refund, I am unaware of it.
It can almost certainly unilaterally revoke all the visas. Why the US wants to blow up its own higher education system would be beyond me, though.
:/ Thinkpad T480 (T490 doesn't) has the ports, is light, durable, is user-serviceable and 10 hours of battery life with the bigger extended battery (which isn't very big). Great as a hackintosh. When other manufacturers blindly copy Apple (like removing the dual batteries of the T series), they lose future customers.
I was under the impression that most people just donate existing food that they have in their pantries instead of purposefully buying food to donate. I probably wouldn't directly donate unless I had a connection to the charity, but I would get rid of a couple of cans of corn that if I'm being honest will probably sit idle until they expire.
I'm certainly not the only one to think of this.

I know of Twilight Zone episodes to have used that. Specifically one I can think of is the Dachau Nazi "doctor" comes back to relive his glory days, and is forced by the ghosts who still live there to forcefully feel their pain for the rest of his life. It's supernatural, but still the same idea.

There were also episodes of Outer Limits that did similar, but with a machine that forced them to live with the crime they committed.

I believe Black Mirror also did some of this as well.
No, but there are plenty of people who sell hand-made crafts that end up only getting that much in the end.

The difference (IMO) is that the hand-made crafts are a labor of love, and the M Turk stuff is just labor.

UED is cool because it has the potential to let us make "molecular movies". IE collect data on the position of atoms in a molecular as a function of time w/ atomic resolution. The main engineering challenge is producing a high enough quality beam. People think THz is one path to that because it is an all optical system and has extremely low jitter/you get nice control over the whole system.
