I wonder if this is partially because the people working on AI/ML intentionally don't put enough efforts into this. I'm one of those people and while I'm to increase accuracy of an existing ML model by 0.3% and collect a fat paycheck, I'd never release any really novel ideas if I happen to come up with some. The reason is our society isn't ready for AI: it's bent by greed and doesn't even recognize this as a problem. Bezos makes billions out of literally slave labor and is cool with that. The US ships containers with firearms to middle East and Africa for profit. The first world people are ok with slave labor in Africa and China as long as it makes the next iPhone cheaper. China and UK are proud of making fast progress in making the survelliance state happen. Australian billionaires open new coal mines and don't care about the rest of the world as long as they have clean air where they live. American healthcare mafia extorts outrageous prices for basic meds and services and would rather let millions die than cut it's profits. What can AI give to this world? Superpowers for the tiny ruling elite? Private armies that can't possibly be challenged by common people. I don't want to live in that world.

local empowerment, allowing small communities to help themselves instead of being controlled from the outside is really the key to future prosperity.

>Every Stack Overflow question has a multitude of answers ranging from imperative to functional style and with various benefits and drawbacks.

This is one of the reasons I love Python. It's a great exercise to rewrite the same code imperative, recursive, with generators, with iterables, etc. Python is very good at supporting a wide range of programming styles.
What exactly is wrong with being a regular person who practices mindfulness? Are the benefits they receive not legitimate in your eyes?

The philosophy I have been exposed to through meditation has helped me better understand how the ego can cause problems. It seems you are rather attached to the idea of a very pure, austere study of meditation and associated philosophies. There are other valid ways of approaching such things that you are unjustifiably disregarding.

Alternatively, you could look at it as someone simply being earlier on their path, and provide encouragement instead of ridicule.
The main problem Chinese face currently is getting money out of China that is the reason Chinese property purchases are down it is the same in Asian cities and countries where Chinese were doing a lot of purchases last few years.
I don’t think it’s quite that simple. Google builds Androids for users, but the primary retail space is owned by the carriers. There are occasionally a few lines the carrier could tell manufactures (including anyone selling android) not to cross or they won’t sell that phone.

So what are the best breakouts to buy?You are looking Bitcoin Revolution 2 Review for an area of resistance which has been tested several times before the breakout comes and six is the minimum, you should look for. These tests should be in time at least two time frames which are widely spaced apart, in terms of time. The more tests you have the better and its even better, if you see in the news that a certain level is considered important by traders.

When the breakout comes, you buy and put your stop just below where the level of resistance gave way, this then gives you close and tight stop loss protection.Most traders don't trade breakouts, because the want prices to dip lower before getting on board but the best breakouts pick up momentum quickly and move swiftly from the breakout point.

Don't wait to get in! Sure you miss the first bit of the move but the odds are, the breakout will continue so you have lots of profit potential.When in the big trends you want to be in them for many weeks, so trail your stop outside of normal volatility. Most traders like to move their stop up to quickly and then, get taken out the trend to early with a small profit when they could have had a far larger one - never make this mistake. Accept short term dips in equity against your position and hold for the long term.

You normally get a few really good breakouts each month and if you focus on these, you can easily make triple digit profits. Two facts will always mean this strategy will work and they are - markets trend and the best trends start and continue from breakouts.The simple strategy above is simple to understand, doesn't take long to apply, will always work and makes huge gains - so try long term Forex trend following, using breakouts and you can enjoy currency trading success.

And you can pay for ALL public transit in the WHOLE COUNTRY with one card. Meanwhile in the U.S. we struggle to do that even in one city - I'm looking at you, New York!

(Yes I have a MetroCard, which already has the worst form factor among all transit cards in the world, and why I can't pay for LIRR, Metro-North or NJ Transit with it is beyond me)
I looked at the author's previous post where he details the process of buying the thing. A fair amount of it goes over my head, I must admit. But that final price tag.... You've gotta really love mainframes. I can't imagine the utility bills for it. The power usage was reduced to 1.7kW. I guess some people buy a sports car and some buy a mainframe. Personally, I'd never be able to drop that kind of money for a hobby. I think emulating a mainframe on a fancy PC would scratch my itch. But to each their own.
But 36%?

I mean, the Canadians don't have currency controls. Neither do the Mexicans. All three of the Big Three foreign real estate buyers have pulled back in a material fashion this year.

Like I said, I just think something must be going on here. I don't think this can be waved off as "Well, it's just China."
Thanks for sharing. What do you use it for? Did you use S2 previously?
>price goes up

People can't afford housing because Chinese are buying up all the houses.

There is no need for Xi or China's establishment to do anything here. They will simply wait it out. Hong Kong is and always will be wholly dependent on its relationship with China. There is no end game where democracy and freedom wins and they secede from China and live happily ever after.

What will most likely happen: the everyday people (shopkeepers, professionals, etc) who need to earn a living will tire of the endless disruptions currently paralyzing their streets and businesses. They will realize that the more radical elements of the demonstrations are undermining the very things that they are fighting for that make Hong Kong an attractive place for investment and international business in the first place: societal stability and the rule of law.

This will most likely occur some time around mid-August, when the school season begins.
No one said "white" in any sentence. At all. You brought race into the conversation. No one else.

I do feel like both the family unit and babies in general are under attack in this new normal in USA. Its not a claim. It is an opinion.

I am a south american immigrant and the only racist in the conversation is you.

Go ponder that in your corner.
There's hope for Congress after all. We can now be sure we have at least one congressman there who can tell a nightly build from a hole in the ground. It's very unusual to see congressional inquiry where the person _asking_ questions is more competent than the person(s) answering them. Most congress(men|women) struggle to complete coherent sentences, let alone talk about anything technically sophisticated.
No. I solved this problem for $0 by discontinuing my use of Airbnb, which was already infrequent because of repeatedly disappointing experiences.

Also, I'm not sure how you'd do a reliable sweep without showing up in person with equipment. Scanning wifi devices isn't necessarily that reliable except for very amateurish spying. The people trying to turn Airbnbs into secret porn studios are not going to be detectable that easily.
I imagine you saw a bit of a dopamine spike when that message came in. Was it enough to mitigate the physical symptoms at all, or was that purely mental, I wonder?
There are pros and cons to the micro-services architecture. To your point it is not a black or white solution. Our systems are fairly large and over-engineered.

Often switching to microservices means reducing the complexity of communication between teams at the expense of increasing the complexity of communication between services.
This is a symptom of low road demand for Queens-Brooklyn transit which in turn is because of the relative size of both boroughs, their lower population density and most importantly because there isn't a subway line that truly cuts across the two boroughs.

If there were a proper subway line, running say from LGA, through Jackson Heights, Ridgewood and then cutting east through Brooklyn to JFK there's no way a driver could go faster on Grand Central Parkway anywhere near peak times.
Not everybody recognizes the corporate holidays. Their loss I say, those 7/11 lines are long as it is!
that maybe because at least in the past males were dominating society, so this is more about addressing that domination rather than uneven performance.

in areas where mailes are under-represented (nurses for example, or early childhood teachers) the problem is not males performance but their lack of motivation or lack of encouragement.

1. Encourages property ownership and wealth building amongst the middle class

2. Enables the middle class to extract the maximum value from their assets

3. Offers a better product at a lower price

4. Keeps profits local

Everyone assumes the hotels are complying with all local statues and are behaving in good faith just because they pay occupancy taxes and carry insurance. Bizarre.

Local city councils can and do enact laws for short term rentals and the short term rental companies have whole departments of developers who program those laws into the system. If those laws are not being followed then the justice department should do its job.

It's not clear to me the extent one can trust the official numbers from China.
I use an Apple USB full-size keyboard from 2008. It is actually my favorite keyboard ever. After years of mostly using laptop keyboards I don't like full height keys anymore.
multiple account support in amplify involves configuring amplify in each account to a particular branch. amplify doesn't support CI/CD types of deployment - instead, you would need to push to a 'dev' branch to triggers a dev build and then later push to a 'prod' branch to trigger a prod build. one reason we went with a central pipeline is to have a single account to manage all deployments as well as control what code gets to production.

Yes. And I signed up for AT&T DSL when their ad said “cancel anytime; no penalties”. When I cancelled, I received a cancellation bill and a letter saying “come back, remember we’re the company that doesn’t have cancellation fees” in the same day.

I tried to dispute the bill and they sent it to collections. Also, during signup they ran a hard credit check explicitly against my permission. One person vs BigCo doesn’t always work out.
The final nail in their UX coffin, for me, was autoplaying previews in the browsing interface and playing trailers (AKA ads) for Netflix-produced shows. I finally got fed up with that recently, re-evaluated Hulu, and decided I was now a Hulu customer.
Awesome Rules for Internet Marketing

Internet marketing can be difficult for many and come easily to a few. Some marketers find massive success with promoting products online, while others struggle to make money. While the top IM experts are making upwards of six figures on the internet, newbies take a long time learning how things work. A lot of things separate the success stories from those who struggle. And, no, it is not about using the latest new traffic generation technique or a sneaky method of getting listed by the search engines. The difference is in the approach a person takes. It is how well you follow the rules that determines whether or not you will succeed in IM, just like in any other money making endeavor. This article will explore a few of the rules that need to be followed by Internet Marketers.

First of all, remember that your online business is an extension of who you are. When you market online, you're revealing a great deal about who you are, such as what you're interested in and what kind of products you believe in. That's why you should always be aware of how you're projecting yourself in the way you present your products and services.

Displaying your identity in your marketing efforts is what makes you an individual and sets you apart. As people in your target market begin to recognize you and your products, you want to cultivate a unique image so you can become a leader in your niche. As you build your identity online, you'll find that growing your business becomes easier. Let's be honest: you can't be an expert at absolutely everything--even if you know how to do all of the work that is related to marketing what you're selling, you can only do it to a reasonable extent. This is why it is very important to put together your own team and then to hire some good people who will do your jobs for you. For example: an article writer is a good team member if you need content on a regular basis. You should hire a graphic designer if you need fresh graphics on a regular basis. The investment you make in your team will benefit you in the long run because your business will give you the best support from all of the best people.

One thing I've been looking for as I mess around with vintage computers is a SOCKS proxy that just strips HTTPS. The wide move to HTTPS, newer TLS protocols and newer certificate issuers has made a lot of old browsers more useless than they should be.
> Hong Kong is and always will be wholly dependent on its relationship with China.

They're dependent on their relationship with somebody. Not necessarily China. It used to be Britain. It could be someone else. (Maybe the US, similar to the relationship the US has with Japan, South Korea, and sorta-Taiwan.)
> Also, what became apparent with Apollo – though it is not how it worked – is that it is better to define your system up front to minimise errors, rather than producing a bunch of code that then has to be corrected with patches on patches. It’s a message that seems to have gone unheeded – in this respect, software today is still built the way it was 50 years ago.

Possibly the most useful part of this interview for working programmers. If you really want things to be bug-free, design them to be bug-free -- don't just squash bugs until you think you've probably found most of them.

(Which approach you take depends on how much you care about bugs versus engineering cost, but there are multiple approaches. You can make reliable software if you're willing to put in the effort.)
Why? Nothing says “permanent resident” like, well, a permanent residence.

That small population includes every BigCo with a large python codebase.
could we address the implication here more critically? what logical reason is there for violence and bloodshed? it feels like us westerners are so prone to caricature the Chinese government as some kind of cartoonish villain. to me the CCP is coldly rational, and I don't see the reasoning here for them escalating the conflict.
This.

In addition, I often see people propagate the myth that eating healthy costs more, which couldn't be further from the truth.

The reality is that meal preparation and home cooked meals from basic ingredients are some of the healthiest things people can eat, assuming they understand basic concepts such as macro-nutrients and how they relate to body composition.

Suppose the people who hate free to play games win the argument and get rid of microtransactions. Suppose they change the laws so you have to get your looter shooter Destiny/Anthem/Division dopamine drip for one fair fixed price. So you're grinding hundreds of hours to get better armor, but you aren't spending more money. Just time.

If it’s a single fixed price, what is incentivizing the developer to make the game more addictive? Purchasing the sequel? Wouldn’t the developer instead be incentivized to make a game with novel and compelling gameplay that isn’t necessarily addictive?
>- A lot of people saying the orders are going to be cancelled -- seeing as I currently have both body and lens in possession, I find that unlikely.

Just as a counterview; I've ordered other types of equipment on prime day that had pricing errors and I was later informed Amazon would not fullfill the order and got a 20$ gift code.
The author mentions how they're not going to talk about rumors several times over the course of the article. I'd love to hear what the rumor mill is saying about the possible causes of the outage.

There aren't even 18 prominent languages...
It's hard to actually drive straight in any direction unless you have a tank but if you could that is probably pretty accurate.
It's not about clouds. The problem is with mainframe manufacturers. Their prices are ridiculous, so no sane man with limited budgets would buy it. I can build incredible powerful server from a desktop or workstation components for a few thousand dollars. Probably can reduce it to hundreds with using old parts. I can increase price to x2 and buy some HP or Dell blade and that would be real server hardware. But nobody is going to increase price to x100 and buy mainframe. That's just too much.
Not for me (Thailand)
You're not wrong, but it feels like a cheap answer. Why should I pay twice as much just because AWS can't keep an instance up? (And double-cost can be understating it; I've run commercial software where the multi-instance/clustered version is far more expensive than the single-node version. I'd actually like to make it fully multi-AZ, but I'm not gonna get the company to to drop that kind of money on it.)
And yet somehow I managed to time my purchase right in the inflection point.
> Look, if an ADULT spends $500 of their hard earned money to buy Fortnitebux or Smurfberries or whatever, I don't know what business it is of yours. If an adult wants to spend cash on beer or DLC or opera tickets or loot boxes, it's their right.

I was ready to write an angry 10,000 word response on the importance of private property and the free market system. But reading this paragraph de-escalated the situation enough for me to realize this article was only a general overview of the industry they work in.
>they should have controls in place to correct such mistakes before the sale is finalized.

If they start bricking devices remotely (to protect against these pricing errors), would you support it?
>Why?

I'm sure you learned in an English class that you should capitalized the name of books.

>It's just a random work of text

It is anything but random. It is a holy text.

>There are several variants of it

Yes, this is because of the difficulty of reproducing books and from creating translations of it.

>Why should yours get special treatment?

I did not create the Bible. The names of any other book is capitalized, so I do not see it as special treatment.

>If you felt inclined to capitalized that too

If you even looked at the Wikipedia link, you would see that it is capitalized.

>it's just a work of fiction

No, it is not. It is a collection of actual events and actual writings produced.

>animation

This was a mistake. I meant to say imagination. A work of fiction comes from the imagination, not real life like the Bible.

>[it is] your opinion

Yes, it is my opinion based off mine and many others interpretation of the Bible. It is wrong to insult the Lord, thinking you know better than Him about what is and what is not a sin.

>magical fairie text

Again I want to point out that the Bible was composed and written by humans and not magical fairies.

>Or if you think your opinion is of more importance than the above magical fairie text...

No, I am sharing my interpretation of the Bible. I would prefer you to address the text as the Bible and not as a, "magical fairie text." To me, it seems like your are making these mistakes intentionally.
