I'm very saddened by this loss. I took him for both 6.034 (artificial intelligence) and his survey course 6.803 (the human intelligence enterprise). Some memories:

1. I still use VSNC (you can read more about it here: http://blog.pptstar.com/?p=441) as a simple model for delivering technical talks. As a coincidence I has already been planning on giving a meta talk about this to my team next Friday. He cared more about, and spoke more about, presentation skills than every other lecturer I had at MIT, combined.

2. He was also the only professor I heard speak about the value of leadership skills and how they can be cultivated.

3. He really did care about his students. I remember his saying to help us get over imposter syndrome, "At MIT, 5% of students think it's too easy, 10% of students think it's just right, and 85% think that at any moment they're going to be found out."

4. I still remember his definition of intelligence as something you almost understand. He would tell the story of giving a preview of an upcoming lecture where they would write a program to do differential calculus. A student came up to him and said "There is no way a computer could ever do that!" After the lecture the same student came up to him and said "That wasn't really AI. The program just does it the way I do it!"

I'd be surprised if it rivaled subscription revenue, though. My point is indeed questionable in the context of original content. HBO's kinda proves my point - their original content is much higher quality IMO. There's some old quote about how Netflix needed to become HBO faster than HBO could become Netflix, and I think they're close to losing that one.
The effectiveness is largely due to the uniform structure of the data that is being manipulated. This is obviously true with vectors, matrices in 2 or more dimensions.

Even when mixing numeric and textual data it is in a form that's not too difficult to line up. We don't think twice about not providing type annotations in our SQL queries. Most rows from a given relation are similarly shaped and outliers are filtered or conditionally handled. It would be very different if we were trying to operate on a wide range of structured types (e.g. customers, addresses, accounts) as both inputs and outputs. Scientific programming is usually dealing with large aggregates and not about producing individual records.
Thank you.

To anyone viewing my answer as a guide: a backup by itself is not a continuity plan. There are other important areas such as setting recovery metrics (RPO/RTO) and testing restores against those metrics. The world is rife with stories of unreadable backups and/or restorations that took days instead of hours.

They lost all their content because everyone else wanted to hoard it for their own services. That's fine, I'm a faithful consumer and I'll do my part against shady practices.

Then they put out substandard SJW shows like Bright and Jessica Jones. That's still okay, not every show is targeted to me and they still weren't conducting shady business practices so they were still a good company in my eyes.

Then they put out 13 Reasons Why. All my goodwill toward them was lost and my subscription was canceled within the month.
I think that's unjustified and a little rude. OP is providing an automated service for publicly accessible data that isn't accessible for automation. If the sources are notified and they are operating within the confines of the law, this is no different than writing a search engine crawler.
I'm pretty happy with Notion.

A note is composed of blocks, which can have child blocks and so on. This makes it much easier to organise things, compared to a typical "modern" free-form note editor.

- team collaboration

Cons:

- proprietary
- paid subscription required
- no agenda feature

I learned that we change, prevails the life we were a minute ago. Minute by minute, we progress a whit farther with each cycle. Considering the assets of one's beginning are irrelevant; how and what one does with the aptitudes of life are what ascertain who you are. I learned that it's okay not to know what you are doing with your life. It's a misprint to select your paths based on the sins you bear. Seriously. Whatsoever happens, happens man. I'll add this too, heard this from somewhere, but couldn't recall precisely where 'The fake is of far ample worth. In its ruminate efforts to be real, it's more real, more than the real thing.

I am unfamiliar with any of the code, so take my statement with a grain of salt.

Sometimes crypto code must be written in weird ways to fend off attacks.

For example, to prevent timing attacks, code must sometimes be written to take constant time. This basically means that some loops must not exit early (such as when a key is wrong). Instead they must note the failure, then continue looping and return failure afterwards.

This means some code has to be written to always take worst-case time.

But if worst-case time in one libraray is better than another library, there can definitely be improvements.
The thing to take away from this: Doctors, Insurance companies and big and small Pharma (small meaning pharmacies) are in cahoots with each other. Doctors charge for unnecessary operations and insurance companies don't care because they can pass on the costs to people who must have insurance.

But then why doesn't competition keep insurance companies more alert? Is it because it is really oligopoly, a bit like either you use Spectrum or Verizon there's really other choice?

Neat, but I'm not sure this has practical value - being 400x slower without a GPU for a 3-40x space savings puts this into a different bucket of usefulness than regular bloom filters. Space is far cheaper than GPU compute.

Also, going from 0.02 ms latency to 5.1 ms (cpu) - 13 ms (gpu) is a huge con to this approach.

That said, I think it's really cool and might be the jump off point for other innovations.

More vfs cache for swap space is not a trade off here, but rather a mostly incorrect oversimplification. The value of more cache is very non linear, it depends on the workload and usually only matters when nearly all of the disk I/O is already exhausted, the exact situation you want to prevent by using more of the same disk I/O for swap. Essentially trading more cache for abrupt performance degradation in terms of latency and responsiveness. I mean, sure, if you can't use zram, say you are on a system that's a bit behind on performance features, like freebsd, very light swappiness might be ok, might free up some of very unused memory and just not be aggressive enough to swap something that causes latency, responsiveness problems, although this is not certain. With memory compression you can swap and compress much more of it more aggressively and be certain that no abrupt performance degradation can happen. It feels like having more ram that's gradually affecting tail latency the more you use it.
384 is not vulnerable to length extension attacks precisely because it is truncated. The output is not he full internal state.

Free is always going to be more attractive and excuses made by folks who don't want to pay for services.

Netflix/Prime/HBO/etc all work perfectly fine, just sign up once, login, and that's it.

Folks are just using this yet again as an excuse to not want to pay more than $10/month for every tv show and movie ever made, but that's not sustainable. It was obvious from the start that folks who wanted to cut the cord and buy content piecemeal would just have essentially a Comcast subscription with 1/10th of the channels, for the same price in the end.
As someone who does not know any more about ham radio than can be inferred from "Contact" and "Stranger Things", I'm curious to know what kind of projects you would have used it for.
You just mark movies/shows as seen it or want to see it and it gives you recommendations based on that. There's no "I've seen it and I hated it" option...I wish it would take a star-rating into account but it does not. Despite this the recommendations are still pretty good. It's a much better content-discovery experience than any content provider's native experience, especially that of Netflix.

How to Increase Your Odds of Success Selling Art Online
People don't like the proliferation of streaming services because of the cost. Buying "just NBC" or "just CBS" is still preferable to the old model of "if you want ESPN you have to get dozens of other channels at the same time". But buying just a single network's content only works if the price is such that you can subscribe to all of your networks and not end up paying more than the old cable model cost you.

The problem of "now I have to look at a bunch of different apps to see what's on" is solved by aggregators like the Apple TV app (though of course Netflix refuses to participate in that app, I don't know why because it means I don't see Netflix shows when I go browsing my recently-watched stuff in the TV app).
At some point Netflix got woke and for me that killed it.

Most Netflix originals prioritized a political message first and entertainment a distant second.

I don't need to get my values from entertainers, of all people.

I can confirm that they do not parse low ranking JavaScript sites, but they will parse higher ranking JavaScript sites.

Bots aside (Twitter and Slack still don't parse JS), it is still in your best interest to server-side render or pre-render a JavaScript site. The time-to-first-paint difference always starts small, but as you add features the JS apps become so bloated you'd be better off starting over with a server-side rendered HTML app.

I seem to be an alcoholic, I guess? I dunno, I now drink like maybe 80oz of beer a night? Is this a problem? I'm not sure. I don't know if it's affecting me in anyway (I'm primarily concerned about my brain). I never feel drunk, but maybe that's also a problem?

I'm trying to reconcile with how I feel (only mildly buzzed at the end of the night) with how much it sounds. Hell, in college, I would have considered that a moderate amount/alot depending on the night.

Maybe other people have some similar (or different) experiences? I guess it's not a problem if I don't think it's one (according to the DSM), but maybe it will become a problem?

There's a lot of question marks in this post, because I'm unsure about how to feel about my own alcohol consumption. But I wouldn't want someone who doesn't have an alcohol tolerance to get the impression that I'm going crazy hard every night.

Anyways, I just finished my 7th 16oz beer (man 112oz sure seems like a lot), but I feel pretty normal... (a year ago I probably would have felt this way after 3 beers)

Also I work super long hours (12+) per day, and used to have bigger problems. Heroin, cocaine, etc...

I feel like I deserve alcohol as long as I don't touch the other stuff...?
No, that was a big ol’ web cache.

The solution to this is: “you have one year to make your webpages readable by the googlebot without javascript. Have a nice day.”
Because each step in the food chain tends to concentrate any substance that bioaccumulates. One example is vitamin A. Fish have lots of it in their livers, seals eat fish, polar bears eat seals. Polar bears have so much vitamin A that eating the liver of a polar bear is almost certainly going to be fatal.

So if your food waste contains heavy metals (as another example) and you feed that to the ant larva and in turn feed the ant larva to fish, you're likely to end up with fish that have high levels of heavy metals.
For single addresses that specifically request it, which is both fine and hugely different from bulk notifications to any/all addresses observed in a breach, which is what I was referring to.

But I realize the wording in the original post is a little ambiguous; I had read "provide ... directly" as implying "push", but that may not be the case, and if so my comment above is not relevant.
Don't be discouraged by the spiteful kneejerk reactions in this thread. HN is a diverse place and some commenters get triggered by an association with one of their pet peeves and launch into a rant without taking time to assess the nuance of your position.

Filter out poor users by making the site inoperable with older hardware. If they cannot afford current gen i9, they will not afford whatever my ad network is pushing. Increases the conversion rate, so all is good.

I do watch movies with subtitles but very rarely (my vision isn't too great). (Dubbing is intolerable.)

It's a terrible UX and just wastes everyone's time to not disclose the dubbing/subtitles in any way in the front-matter.
>They got into content creation and they're now deep in debt despite their massive subscriber base.

because content companies started holding their content hostage for higher fees or outright refusing to allow netflix to license it. Netflix creating their own content was a matter of survival.
Agreed, but that was so unrealistic it was like a 19 year old far left activist’s dream of sexist white men, not reality or even exaggerated reality.

One place where I've found better work is with Topcoder Challenges[0]. I took a long break between jobs and worked on a wide range of jobs, mostly to try out new tech and get paid for some of my effort. I was planning to do it anyway. The rub is that you don't land a contract and rather do the work, submit it and if it's in the top 3 get a 1st, 2nd, 3rd prize. Some challenges are first to finish and only one gets paid. Often there will be units of work all for the same project so once you get familiar with the dev setup and codebase can be more productive. Remember that you're still competing globally with places having a much lower cost of living. The management of the process is very well organized with each challenge having a shared Q/A forum with posted materials and often provide VM access to dev/demo work.

I was mostly doing back-end work and dabbling in front-end, hybrid, or mobile dev. There are bigger tasks for UX and data science work but I'm less versed or productive there.

When I'm searching for something to watch on TV, I like having something in not invested in as a backdrop. Like random sports or sports news. Trailers are tooaattention-grabbing for this. On Netflix, I can't browse with unrelated background content on.

Speaking of browsing, on my TV provider, I know exactly where to find all the sorts of content I'm interested in. With Netflix, it's constantly being shuffled.
>Sorry about your loss.

Thank you. Even at 33-35 we've lost a lot of friends already but this one seems to have hit a lot of us pretty hard because it wasn't a bullet, it wasn't an accident, it wasn't cancer... it was just a heart going "nah, I'm done" and CPR was started almost immedieately and they cleared the blockage quickly in the hospital and got him hooked up to arctic sun but it was just all a little too late, too much brain damage had been done. Also perhaps because his bio kid is only about a year old, he finally had a good job, ya know finally had 'the dream' going for him.

While we were all getting way too old to go to punk shows for bands we went to as kids, we still did and now one of us won't be there.
They actually do have linking[0] and map creators are usually quite anal about only having one instance of each argument in a map. So instead of accepting your suggestion they will just link the already present one there, which can be a bit annoying.

It's not a serious issue for me. I can't download my configs to random devices either. Working on embedded stuff I've usually only got vi, and honestly, the most annoying thing is no `F` binding (which is a default in vim).
Makes sense, thanks. I think my mental threat model was different:

you're talking about dodgy (potentially compromised) software: better run in the browser sandbox (albeit imperfect) than natively.

I was thinking of sensitive software (eg secret chats) I want to protect from attack: better run natively than in the (imperfect) browser sandbox.

In the context of this discussion (Slack), your threat model probably makes more sense.
The real benefit is when you can run simulations at scale using “digital twins” in different configurations.

I work professionally in this space and I can say over the past ~10 years, my full time job at 4 companies has been almost entirely to migrate away from SOLR / Lucene solutions and implement custom in-house search indexes.

Most of the time it has been for performance reasons. SOLR / Lucene have very poor performance characteristics, especially when needing to support custom sort ordering and heavy use of filters.

On other occasions it has been because you can’t easily extend search indexes to more advanced use cases, like similarity-based reverse item search, collaborative filtering, more advanced treatment of cold start issues / bias towards existing popular content / trending search.

A lot of small or medium sized companies naively figure they’ll just use SOLR etc to get something out of the box, or for side channel problems that are smaller scale.

But you come to regret it pretty fast because you end up needing one standardized way to build and deploy search indices and it has to support all the bells and whistles that SOLR can’t _and_ be faster than SOLR, for the big product use cases.

A lot of product companies now are beginning to use word-vector approaches with nearest neighbor libraries like ANNOY, as the first solution instead of the solution you eventually have to migrate to when you realize SOLR does not actually support your use case, not even as a means to get it up & running quickly.
I think what's wrong with JSON is you have to quote the field-names. That makes it unreadable and easy to create typos.

I agree with the mayor of Sacramento[1] that shelter should be a civil right, and coupled with that right should be a responsibility to use it. Hand in hand with that, camping on public property should not be a civil right.

If a disaster hit and 50k people lost their homes, FEMA and the Red Cross would ramp up and shelter them immediately. The same level of effort should be put into sheltering the homeless across the country. Normalizing the growing slums by declaring that street camping is a civil right is an absolute disaster.

The problem is that optimizing for long-term satisfaction metrics is extremely tricky and hard. Such metrics lead to the better user retention, potentially even with less watch time. Paradoxically higher watch time may lead to lower user satisfaction (and decreased retention).

In ML world these metrics require combining DNNs with methods like Q-learning. YouTube learned these lessons and now probably has the most advanced ML among competition in its’ recommendation system.
