Playing the devil's advocate here: might I ask why? The paper seems pretty thorough w.r.t. the description of used corpora, models, and hyperparameters. They even point to the exact implementation of their evaluation scoring and include a few examples in the paper itself. Even if they put up a demo instance for the required infrastructure it would be dead as soon as it hit HN and, as research code goes, likely a security hazard to wherever it's hosted.

In my view there seems to be enough here to replicate and validate the claims yourself if you wanted to. With a basic level of trust in academic integrity I'm completely fine with this paper.
Something strikes me in the middle of the article. If you have metcal station (expensive pro stuff), clearly you have to have some experience with SMDs... This transistor is replaced with preheater and a hot air gun in seconds, and it is not the smallest package out there.

The issue with Ariane V was the lack of integrated testing. If they had coupled the testing of the software with increased acceleration levels generated by a simulated Ariane V instead of an Ariane IV, they would have caught the issue.

But let's say this was something unexpected - then probably the only way to mitigate this would be a backup system - but this is an unmanned system - and Apollo/Saturn/Shuttle/Soyuz levels of redundancies is not required.
From the car, I am not sure.

It is an appealing idea to use the car as a battery store, however, there are a few practical issues.

1. When using the car as a battery bank, we eventually increase the charge / discharge cycles of the battery, leading to quicker need for replacement. An external solar battery is cheaper, considering it need not be miniaturized.
2. When not in use, I'd prefer the car is charged, so that I can use it as and when immediately required, say an emergency. So, using power from the car, is not appealing, to me atleast.

3. Grid is prone to brownout in India, however, most cities and towns are experiencing it less and less and these are the major markets for EVs.
That was not my intention; I added a disclaimer showing that I’m not affiliated. I raised some real human rights concerns; IBM or any third party companies using the tool should take them seriously. The issue is that companies do use these tools, mostly in HR departments; recruiters can attest. Another interesting paper on hiring and algorithmic decision making that you might be interested:

I haven’t closely followed this but it definitely seems like something that could have serious second order effects that (surprise, surprise) politicians who optimize for optics never think about.

For example I think the bar will immediately be higher for drivers who want to remain drivers, meaning less tolerance for drivers that have below median ratings. Maybe that’s a good thing for riders but it could make driving more stressful than it already is.

TLDW: Today, most application developers write code without much regard for how quickly it will run. Moreover, once the code is written, it is rare for it to be reengineered to run faster. But two technology trends of historic proportions are instigating a resurgence in software performance engineering, the art of making code run fast. The first is the emergence of cloud computing, where the economics of renting computation, as opposed to buying it, heightens the utility of application speed. The second is the end of Moore's Law, the 50-year technology trend which has, until recently, relentlessly doubled the number of transistors on a semiconductor chip every two years. With the attenuation of this major source of computing performance, application programmers will increasingly find themselves turning to software performance engineering in order to develop innovative products and applications.
I like Forth but I always seem to make my programs too clever in it. If I write them in C or assembly instead it takes longer but has less bugs. Probably people with better self-discipline than I have can do wonders in Forth.

Current micros are a bit big for Forth, though. You can run C or C++ on them. If you have only 4K or 8K of code space and 128–512 bytes of RAM the case for C over Forth gets a lot weaker. Maybe we'll see a resurgence of Forth when we get nanobots.
How about Canada steps up to Australia's magnitude of generosity before telling them how they should manage said generosity.

Which is for the most part what is done. Throughout most of Canada's land mass habitation is very sparse, mostly indigenous or small towns based around a natural resource industry.
There's nothing wrong with pulling in the `libc` dependency. It literally means adding two lines of code and then `cargo` manages everything for you. It isn't really third-party; the owner is "rust-lang:libs".

I understand that people are conditioned to think APIs are easier to consume when they're in the standard library, because that's true in many languages, especially those that lack a modern package management system (e.g. Ada). But it's not true in Rust and there are advantages to having libraries like `libc` outside the standard library. For example `libc` is updated more frequently than the Rust standard library (multiple times per month vs every six weeks).
> So how are (seemingly most) parents getting 4 hours of sleep for extended periods of time yet aren't falling asleep on public transit on their way to work?

Most parents are getting more than 4 hours of sleep, but it's broken up. If your kid is on a 3 hour feed/sleep cycle, and it takes 1 hour for feeding and getting back to sleep (which is in the difficult part of the spectrum), that leave s you 2 hours to sleep before another wake up.

If both parents are needed, or if it's a single parent, chances are you're going to bed early, because you're exhausted; you'll probably go to bed when the evening feeding is done, say at 9pm, sleep for two hours, wake up for 1 hour, go back to sleep at midnight for two more hours, wake up at 2 am to feed, sleep again until 5 am, feed until 6 am and then get ready for the day.

You've ended up with 6 hours of sleep -- this is okish. If you have two parents taking shifts, one parent slept from 9-11, and then from 12-5, for a total of 7 hours; the other slept from 9-2, and from 3-5, also a total of 7 hours.

Of course, some nights don't go well, or the evening feeding is over at 8 and you don't really want to go to bed then, and that pushes everything back. But, if feeding only takes 30 minutes, that helps a bit. And some times the feeding cycles clash with sleep cycles -- it was awful for the (thankfully short) period where baby was consistently waking us up during REM sleep.

Even without the proximity to Vancouver, Victoria is hardly rural. It's a small to medium city of around 350k people, as well as being the capital city of BC. The west coast in general is also quite a small-L liberal place. So to answer the parent's question, you would expect to find more intolerance in smaller towns in the interior and the north.

It's risky to use hot air spot-heating a high density multi layer PCB, as these boards aren't really designed for differential heating and can delaminate easily.

You really should heat the whole board uniformly to be safe, but that is a danger to do when you aren't sure of the melting temperature of the solders used.
I don’t mind the larger phones, but I feel a lot of work could be done on keeping all input to one side or the other, easing single digit input.
Or you know... bring a camera and be professional.

The idea that apple needs an extra $300 dollars to fit that into my phone, maybe i'll just get two pixel 3s. Or a nice point and shoot.

The 'bare minimum' that the consumer will accept vs 'the average feature set expected' vs 'lets sprinkle in some unicorn dust and charge people up the wazoo' model is getting a little old. Its why I have iPhone 6s, 7s, still in the fleet of devices I support. The consumer and businesses are simply tired of this bs.

The ad spend can undo this in November 2020. Ballot propositions can't be undone by the legislature or governor.
On the one hand, that's a response given to indicate there is no valuable answer to be found. On the other hand, there is no sound of one hand clapping, which could indicate you believe there is no value to dialog. I'm afraid I have no idea what your point is.
When you take money from people like Epstein, there are always strings attached. Now he will be entitled to visit the lab, leverage your social network, review the project, make recommendations, have students do their dance, invite you out to dinner, out to his island, offer you gift of sensual message... it's not just a slippery slop, it is intentionally designed for you to slip off. So not really that tricky subject.
I’ve had phones with microUSB, USB-C and Lightning within the past 5 years. Oddly enough I still have a few things which take a microUSB cable including a book light.

At the end of the day, having different cables is a slight inconvenience but not terrible. I know with both USB-C and Lightning I’m tired of cleaning the connectors. I’m not going to say I want them to go away, but Qi charging ftw! Renders this entire debate almost entirely moot, and lint isn’t an issue.

Replacing one annoying connector with another isn’t an upgrade, it’s a lateral move at best, and a downgrade for people with iPhones today that are well invested in Lightning peripherals.

USB-C is on its best day, equal to Lightning for the purposes of shifting electrons, and is in some ways worse because the design of the connector is more fragile on the female end, I.e. the phone, rather than the more easily replaced cable. The day Apple switches over to USB-C is the day the connector is meaningless. It will probably happen, but today is not that day.
That seems exceedingly unlikely to occur, regardless of ad spend, in a state as progressive politically as California (similar to AirBnB’s tone deaf failed ad campaign in San Francisco).

This assumes gig companies haven’t exhausted their runway by then. Humorously, Uber and Lyft thought they might extinguish taxis if they waited them out long enough, and then the California government did the same to them.
> I pretty much only use Facebook. After the timer is up that’s it for the day.

Any reasonable definition of social media would include any site whose main content is user-contributed, and allows users to comment and vote on content and comments. For example: reddit, youtube, imgur, .....HN.

You may be consuming a lot more social media than you thought.

I used Ada (GNAT) about 15 years ago. One of the things that struck me was the accuracy of the compiler error messages and the sophistication of the debugger, when compared to C/C++ in Visual Studio / GCC
Agreed; I'm sure there are many countries with far more total refugees. The annual trends do seem newsworthy to me though. If anything it illustrates how much the US annual number has dropped that it's now below Canada. Likewise European countries that were taking much larger numbers of refugees per year are no longer taking as many. Canada has increased its intake slightly under the Liberal government, as the article mentions, but the real change is the reduction by other countries.

FWIW, most people who care about their search ranking would absolutely love a tool like this. The point of the automated crawl isn't just to find the information, it's because if you let people submit their own content to the index they'll lie about what it is.
From the article, it seemed the issue was more just bad design. As the author demonstrated, adequate cooling could be achieved within the existing space constraints.
+5 years here and still not missing anything about social media whatsoever.
We use affine types, which means every value can get used at most once. This is a lot less painful in practice than it sounds though, since:

a. we can copy things for free at compile-time that get erased at runtime

b. we have a `cpy` primitive that allows for free copying of our Word type (a 32-bit unsigned int)

c. we have a primitive that allows for deep-copying, as long as the copies (and anything that uses them) are marked with usage annotations https://docs.formality-lang.org/en/latest/language/4.Core-Fe...
Good point.
It really depends what’s the use case but as your suggested... time is relative. :)
Different people need different advice.

I love solving problems and am very good at it but writing things down makes me hate maths, the act of moving the pen is much more effort than the problem itself. I used to stump my professors by solving the problems they were explaining in my head long before they would have gotten to a solution. But then I got diagnosed with ADD after I completed my masters, I can write down things no problem when I'm on medication, but if people forced me to write down everything in school when I were undiagnosed I likely would have dropped out of middle-school and maybe even committed suicide. Several of my siblings dropped out of middle school so that is not an exaggeration.

I don't think that not writing things down held me back, I think it forced me to become creative and learn things properly since I couldn't just follow algorithms blindly like my classmates. So maybe I should be grateful that I was diagnosed late and thus forced to invent my own maths throughout college. I likely would have gotten perfect grades with medication, but I'm pretty sure the things I learned and the intuition I built are way more valuable than grades.

But if someone like you came around and thought I did things wrong then you would have ruined my life. Please don't force that on someone else and when they inevitably fail you just say something like "I guess he wasn't that good after all, nothing I could've done!".
They don't seem to be designed to wear while sleeping. It's really too big for that purpose. Also, battery life is just not enough for 24hr wearing. This is precisely why I got FitBit.
I’m looking for some API or scraping source to add it as a metric to my music app, anyone came across one?
It will be an interesting case study for sure. I think we can expect fewer drivers, mandatory time slots, and capped 40 hour weeks. Prices should go up to cover all of it, and both Uber/Lyft are cheeky enough to separate that line item as a “CA Tax Recovery Fee” or some such.

Probably will be better off for those making it their living, worse for those looking for extra income.

It’s going to be harder on all the other businesses getting hit suddenly with this, newspapers threw a fit and got a 1 year reprieve but the rest didn’t have a bully pulpit.

> Can't get why large companies/universities have boners for proprietary crap like duo.

It's like the classic HN argument of "Why don't you just use rsync/sftp vs dropbox" - because it's easier. For users, for admins, for the business.

The biggest problem with rolling out 2FA is onboarding and adoption.

Onboarding people is a massive pain in the arse. Issuing hardware tokens to people is even more of a giant pain in the arse, particularly if you have more than a handful of people in more than one city or country.

We deployed Duo because it allowed us to add 2FA reasonably easy to a wide range of services. It allowed us to require our contractors in countries like India and the Philippines to use it. They all have phones, even basic android devices can run it.

Rolling out physical tokens requires us to mail them out to people. Everything we sent to our offices in Spain larger than a letter got caught in customs for three months and/or "lost". Even USB thumb drives.

I've worked with people who are continually losing or destroying phones, keys, wallets, etc. Making them carry a hardware token, which will also get lost/destroyed means you're now constantly issuing them a new one.

On the systems side of things - it allowed us to add 2FA to devices that don't support it, or don't support the same 2FA you've chosen for everything else.

On the support side of things, it was dead easy to have automatic enrolment/signup based on existing processes (eg read LDAP/AD group membership), and it has a UI that actually allows us to properly delegate access to support staff.

Could we have rolled our own? Absolutely. But we'd have had to spend a lot more time, and a lot more money setting it up and maintaining it, and it gives good enough security.

Our biggest threat isn't a nation state or directed attack where someone can steal your phone and pull the token secrets.

Our biggest threat is Jim from Marketing who used the same damn password for his corporate email as he used when signing up for MarketingCon, and then having that registrant database leak.
If this actually gets enforced, I predict we'll all be talking about the law of unintended consequences in a year's time.
This is why it's good to have states be the test beds for policy experiments.

It's not all bad for everyone. If this turns out to be a giant net negative, the rest of the world can learn from California's experience. Worst case it will be a boon for other states who will be able to offer better taxi availability for all the business people they are trying to attract away from California, putting pressure on CA to update it's laws (although let’s be honest this is pretty rare even in the face of changing marketplaces).

This could also accelerate the adoption of AI and the subsequent loss of the driver's jobs in favour of automation as the human capital costs increases and/or driver availability issues could help tilt the cost efficiency scales.

Plus a lot of people are predicting truck drivers are going first and I wouldn’t be surprised if there will be an influx of people looking for urban Taxi jobs soon.

1. Although it's not always the case other states actually look at data and studies first before copying other state's policy.
I don't think that the aboriginal peoples of those countries agree.
There are no 3rd party apps that can stream over the cell connection or Wifi on the Apple Watch. Pandora, Tunein etc. Some can do offline. Pretty sure Apple only allows their apps to use the cell connection for streaming because thats an Apple thing to do.
Full statement: Today, our state’s political leadership missed an important opportunity to support the overwhelming majority of rideshare drivers who want a thoughtful solution that balances flexibility with an earnings standard and benefits. The fact that there were more than 50 industries carved out of AB5 is very telling. We are fully prepared to take this issue to the voters of California to preserve the freedom and access drivers and riders want and need.

So basically they want to carve out an exception for their industry as well, wait 10 years until competing taxi services are dead, and then pass some token legislation based on the outcome of AB5 in other industries. Standard corporate-speak.
I saw ballots bypassed by the jegislature and the governor multiple times in MA.
Ianal so no idea about the technicalities.
Tainting the dataflow rather than the control flow, like a quiet NaN, would be a better solution in cases like these. It happens that the solution that was chosen was the worst choice possible, but in other cases it wouldn't have been.

Probably the fact that the engineers got the case analysis wrong suggests that the methods of reasoning they were using weren't very effective. Modern formal methods might or might not have helped; guaranteeing that a piece of code is statically free of exceptions is not a terribly advanced thing to do, but really you'd like to guarantee that the variable was actually big enough. Having less code to reason about certainly would have helped.

C’s choice is clearly unconscionable.
His opinion is fine; the problem is that this article is being purposely deceptive about what his opinion is.
