It doesn't have to emulate the work process as long as it is a good proxy. It doesn't have to do anything with what you do as work, as long as the correlation between them is strong enough. Might as well be an IQ test or logic puzzle but they have their own problems.

Many companies hire people before they decide their position. So your job tasks might wildly different.
As eyes grow, their shape is determined by what they see. Viewing lots of black-on-white text (books, most web pages, etc.) moves the focal length one direction. Viewing lots of white-on-black text would do the opposite, but that has gone out of style.

That counts. I can't find the research right now, but I think it hit Hacker News a year or two ago.
I've had it happen to me... from a former friend, no less - though online.

Racism is embedded deep within many folks here.

However, one of my close relatives (who's Chinese but started his career in France) got that a lot in France, a few years ago, too.

The sentiment is latent, lurking and waiting for the right circumstances or personality to bring it out.
Why pay extra for a special purpose cable to plug your skull into the matrix when you can just get a 99 cent one off Alibaba?
I'd hesitate to generalize this across the podcasting space. Tim's podcast is pretty unique in this regard. He _really_ does have unique and interesting advertisers, probably because his scale means he can pick basically whoever he wants.

Sam Harris did this same experiment recently and has stuck with the ad-free model. I listen to both podcasts with roughly equal frequency and interest and I immediately subscribed to Sam but not to Tim.

Not sure what the mechanics are going on here but bottom line is that both models seem to work well in different contexts.

This needs an editor badly. You have to make it through 4 long paragraphs of grandiose posturing before learning what the post is even about.
Agreed, no one is forced to use Go. I think it is refreshing to see a language like Go. You don't want all languages to asymptotically approach each other in features. We need diversity in our languages, that way you have flavors to choose from.

I certainly watched a lot of crap TV growing up.

However entertainment back then was so feeble compared to today's high voltage stuff it didn't really command one's full attention, there was still time for socializing.

On the contrary, you can eliminate pipe leaks easily - just many areas have fairly lax integrity management requirements for operators, and those that don't only apply to new lines - very rarely does legislation cover preexisting pipelines.

New pipelines (especially ones considered DOT regulated in the US, overseen by PHMSA) typically are installed with automatic block valves and flow level leak detection systems. Those combined with a sensible internal and external corrosion control program can push the life of a pipeline without incident out past the useful life of the pipeline. But retrofitting these is expensive and most pipeline operators won't do it without regulatory or other political pressure.
Screen time (which I know I had too much of, to my lasting detriment) displaces other, better activities. Seriously.
When a host agrees to accept data, they put up out-of-pocket money. This makes it expensive for a bad actor to accept an infinite amount of data, as each piece of data requires more collateral to be put forward by the host.

Before a renter creates a contract with a host, the renter will perform some measurements on the host and determine if the host is suitable. A renter in China will chose different hosts than a renter in the US, because the latencies and throughputs of each host will be different.

The reverse argument made here is usually the turkey fallacy. For turkey, all logical evidence points to a continuously improving quality of life, with every need met and a constant availability of food. There’s no evidence that it’s going to be eaten this thanksgiving, so any effort in building turkey-computer neural links is dismissed off hand as being a waste of time.
I noticed that too. I like osmand (openstreetmap) for the same reason. It's like google maps decided to practice more minimalism than apple did.
Of course its not good. “too much” of anything isn’t good. If something is too much, its inherently bad. Unless you’re reacting to an old woman by telling here she’s “too much”, thats ok in moderation.

This is interesting, I didn't feel that with go I understand my code better, but I also don't think I was lost in other languages.

My impression of go, is that it is very boring to program in it, and some decisions weren't thought well. For example if you use anything else for numbers than int, int64 or float64 you will have very bad time. Lack of generics forces you to duplicate your code, duplicating increases chances of errors and make it harder to fix bugs. The errors are passed as values, but then you need to use different return value to pass them, defeating the whole point of having that. On top of that the language is very rigid.

I'm wondering if introducing macros could solve a lot of those issues.
How does this compare to dremio, that also uses Apache Arrow? Is this a competitor?

There’s still something to be said for the relative uselessness of most social media. I don’t avoid it by any measure, but I’m also very aware that a minute spent on a given social platform is usually a minute wasted. At least with something like a movie you have a shot at remembering what you saw a month ago. Do you remember what you saw on Instagram yesterday?

Where's the evidence?

If the people who actually work on and build this stuff are skeptical of letting their kids, especially young ones, use it without limit then that certainly passes the smell test for me that there might be a problem.

The revealed preferences of people who work in tech is all the evidence I need.
I think part of it is that it's so kid-by-kid. There will always be those self starters, and those mature enough to use the internet properly. Educating them on proper web use is a parents' job and is something they can do together, like reading.
Mostly the problem is that the better activities have become less readily available and/or more expensive.

Sia's seeds are ridiculous-- the 29 words provide 300 bits of entropy. 100 bits would be a sufficient security margin against brute forcing, assuming a modern memory-hard KDF like Argon2.

With a 100 bit password, assuming every flop of the 1.8 exaflops of the Top500 supercomputers tested a new password, it would still take 25,000 years to crack. Key stretching should add at least 30 bits of security by taking a billion operations--

$ perf stat argon2 asdfasdf -id -m 16 -t 16 <<< asdf
Type: Argon2id
Iterations: 16
Memory: 65536 KiB

As someone who had a magnet inserted and eventually removed from a finger: wait for the 2nd or 3rd revision.

The first versions of the magnet implants had an unnerving tendency to shatter or have their neutral coating breach. And we're talking about the brain here - any damage caused by implanted devices may not be nearly as obvious as an exploded finger. I never miss an opportunity to trot out this quote from Alpha Centauri:

>I think, and my thoughts cross the barrier into the synapses of the machine - just as the good doctor intended. But what I cannot shake, and what hints at things to come, is that thoughts cross back. In my dreams the sensibility of the machine invades the periphery of my consciousness. Dark. Rigid. Cold. Alien. Evolution is at work here, but just what is evolving remains to be seen.
It depends on user behavior. If the average Uber Eats customer opens the app then decides on a restaurant and not the other way around, Uber has a lot of bargaining power. It can tell restaurant owners “hey, you won’t make this revenue without us, so we’ll charge 35%. This is our access fee for that dollar on the sidewalk.”

The restaurant can say “screw you and your high fees, we’ll exclusively use [Grubhub clone] instead,” but they will most likely lose the Eats customers. Theoretically, in the long run, large platforms should compete more on price and extract less from customers and restaurants. This will only happen if customers migrate to a lower cost competitor.

There are two hurdles to price competition. One is that platforms are sticky and have psychic switching costs. The other problem is that customers don’t observe the fees which are charged to restaurants. They don’t know how much of the menu price reflects the cost of actual food vs. how much is Uber’s merchant fees.
Neither of those are grocery stores
Most companies outside of the west coast/Silicon Valley bubble hire for specific needs/specific departments.
That would be annoying. Fortunately, I have never experienced call drops/power downs like that. If I had, I'd be using a different device too.
One reason I can think of: a 99 cent one off of alibaba might deliver a 100 volt jolt directly to a device that is electrically connected to your brain, killing you instantly.

I'm all for universal standards, but this really does seem like a case where the connection should be a clean sheet (maybe even proprietary) design where safety parameters can be tightly controlled. My guess is that they're using USB during the development phase for ease of development (they probably just haven't spent the time on making a different connector yet). I would be very surprised to see this actually go to market with a USB-C port. Given the notorious issues with USB-C cables, I would be surprised if the FDA even approved a device with a user-accessible USB-C port.
aur is a system. you can of course make your own pkg's without sharing if you so chose.

One speaker is a professor from UCSF who studied the brain's processing of motor signals. He explicitly credited Musk for having the right vision and the long term planning, and that's why he left his position after 16 years to come work with Neuralink.

No one credits Musk for solving bugs with the software on his products, or creating these brain-computer interfaces. But he can assemble the team to do, and motivate them to keep moving and progressing pretty aggressive schedules. And he frequently gives credit to his team (and doesn't sit there patting himself on the back).
I rented one a couple weeks ago to, coincidentally, drive back to my apartment to get a replacement inner tube for a stranded bike. If there's a way to get a bike in one without damaging the seats, I couldn't figure it out.

> E-mail is fundamentally terribly positioned to do secure messaging

E-mail is fundamentally a way to send a sequence of bytes somewhere (untrusted) so they can be picked up later by someone (trusted).

That’s also literally what Signal is built on so I think you’re overstating the difference.
in other words: "let us create Libra otherwise Bitcoin wins.

"Screen Time" is too vague IMHO.

I spent most of my time from 10-16 reading books and computer screens, both solitary indoor activities. However via a computer and a modem I communicated with hundreds of people regularly. I don't see that as lost time.
Most cities have public parks and libraries that are free.
> Where’s the evidence?

There's definitely evidence that we're getting less and less physically fit as a population:

https://www.stateofobesity.org/childhood-obesity-trends/

https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2016/06/13/4815909...

Physical activity is in decline:

http://www.phitamerica.org/News_Archive/Says_Says_19-Year-Ol...

Less physical activity is also correlated with worse cognitive functioning:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27182986

Of course that's not a direct link to "screen time", but then what else could be drawing people to less and less physical activity? I doubt it is books or board games. It's a known fact that many modern apps/games are engineered to be addictive, exploiting loss aversion and reward mechanisms of the human brain.
No. Dremio is a mature product backed by a company. This is a two week old PoC right now. There could be overlap and collaboration for sure via the Apache Arrow project since Dremio are well represented there and I am an Arrow committer too.
There's a SNL sketch about that:

How does this analogy apply specifically to AI, though? There's also no evidence that God is going to come and pronounce his judgement on us, so any effort in prayer and pious living is often dismissed off hand as being a waste of time. Should non-believers in God reconsider their ways given their knowledge of the turkey fallacy?
For a paralyzed person trying to use Neuralink to control an external device, how does the neural signal decoding distinguish between just thinking of a movement and the actual volition of that movement? You would not want to actuate the external device just because the user is thinking of the movement (e.g. from reading a book, watching a video, or planning for the future).
Are there ever been male babes in undergarments at CES ?

Or was it just a way to appeal to straight males in the attendance while reminding everybody else that they are not supposed to exist ?

Not to mention that in an industry that is already pretty sexist, re-enforcing the idea that women are just a pair a tits is just what is needed.
One thing with cable was that there was never a feasible way to offer separate packages with and without ads. (Yes, there were specific channels that didn't have them, but there was never a technically feasible way to do that across all channels.)

With streaming, we can avoid this because it's possible offer packages:

Price X includes ads

Price X+Y has no ads

As long as Y is something enough consumers are willing to pay, you can always price yourself out of the ad-watching category by paying more. The trouble with out conventional "freebie" internet services as we know them is there aren't enough people willing to pay the additional Y.
My goal is to kick start some things around the Rust language for data science / data analytics and projects like this help to showcase what Rust can do. See my original blog post for more context: https://andygrove.io/2018/01/rust-is-for-big-data/
It (10-day Silent Goenka-style Vipassana retreat)'s meant to be an experience like being alone. No eye contact, no talking, gestures etc. To me the retreat aspect is a way of getting huge blocks of time with all your needs (including cooking) taken care of. Its so conducive to serious meditation and removing obstacles and distractions. It's often challenging coming home and trying to meditate due to the distractions that are around.
And there are more reasons FollicleRx Review for men's and women's hair loss. For example hair loss, particularly hair thinning in patches or falling out very fast, can be a symptom of an underlying medical problem. For this reason if you experience sudden hair loss should visit your doctor.

However the vast majority of cases of balding in women and men is as a result of male pattern baldness or female pattern baldness. This is known technically as androgenetic alopecia and is an inherited condition. Those susceptible to it, estimated to be 4 in 7 men and one in 4 women, suffer from hair loss as a result of the actions of a hormone called DHT dihydrotestosterone which slowly affects the ability of the hair follicle to take up nutrients in adequate amounts. This leads to the hair follicle shrinking and the hair thinning and prematurely dying.

There is one product approved as a hair loss treatment by the FDA for men and women. This is topical minoxidil. Minoxidil was originally a treatment for high blood pressure but it was also found to increase hair growth and for this reason studies commenced on the use of topical minoxidil for hair restoration. Studies found that minoxidil does work as a balding treatment but of course like all of these things it does not work for everybody, and in fact there is no hair loss product that works for everybody.

Whilst there are 2 products approved as balding treatments for men, minoxidil is the only treatment approved for women's hair loss. Minoxidil extra strength 5% minoxidil is approved for men but not for women.

I'm from a smaller country than the US.

My democratic involvement doesn't begin and end at the vote. I'm a participant in the culture that collectively makes these decisions. I feel that I'm a part of "our" decision on most matters, even if I sometimes don't like our collective choice. I expect that my fellow citizen is reasonably competent and in good intention.

Seems like Americans have a very low opinion of their "collective" and are simultaneously fearful of its power over them. If that's more generally true in USA than elsewhere, then I wonder if it's just a product of the country's size, or if people can feel differently about this regarding their state vs. country.

> I love it that his solution to the "AI terminator" problem is making a brain-computer interface so that we can have a fighting chance when AI takes off.

This seems like making a well-intentioned medical application that incorporates latest research findings and likely addresses historical downsides of the field (e.g. scarring issues with long term deployment of invasive BCI).

I don't see how that is anywhere close to being related to some sci-fi "AI terminator" scenario though. If you want to go into some cyberpunk fanfic about Musk you can just turn this application around and spin a "AI is now able to fry our brains out" narrative, which is neither helpful, nor realistic. This AI FUD is so weird to me, it's much more likely to be killed by badly written auto pilot for fancy cars, a failed operation to get your brain USB plug, a malicious application of AI by companies or state actors in areas like mass surveillance and population control... than it is for a real, strong AI to suddenly emerge, become sentient and decide that humanity cannot be trusted.

That’s a good question. My US centric view:

The open market faction in the US would love to see those trade barriers lowered. Money is expensive to move.

From an ofac perspective, an immutable ledger would allow investigators to trace the funds. Small time criminals use venmo already.

USD as a world currency. I really can’t imagine libra being anything else but an extension of USD.
Note that even if it's only accessible by VPN, attackers can still make HTTP requests to it because when an employee connected to the VPN visits attacker.com , attacker.com can make XHR calls to internalsite.com . The attacker can't read the response (unless there are other vulnerabilities), but if you don't have CSRF protection, the attacker can perform actions on the internal site.
One is a psychologically manipulative way to get attention (like most advertising) in public that is also offensive to some and one is for use by consenting individuals in private. I don't see the issue explaining those moral values.

I bet all the people presenting products are still attractive models and salesmen though, so to an extent they're still using sex to sell things just in a less titillating manner.
