Oddly enough, I have a circular slide rule where the printed scale is not quite concentric with the sliding discs, so the thing has a built-in periodic error.
While learning by simulation is going to garner deep understanding, it takes a lot longer. And in the end you end up discovering the same "formulae" (but of course having done the experimentation to "derive" means you understand it much better than if it had just been told to you).

> It really shouldn't be hard to be more charismatic than Stallman... but where/who is such a person?

I don't think anyone will be able to top rms in charisma, in the sense of having that feeling that Free Software is their calling in life, above anything and everything else.

That said, I think a movement only needs a charismatic founder to keep going for centuries with more regular leaders. I think there are a few worthy candidates, like Eben Moglen, Karen Sandler and Mishi Choudhary, and I'm sure a few more can be found in the FSF ranks themselves, now that obfuscating spotlight is gone.

Often policies don't matter as much as how you promote it. China and Singapore are two places that promote their policies in a way that makes people at home patriotic and many people overseas jealous.

There was an article here on HN about Singapore a few days ago and I was relieved to see that not everyone in the comments is buying it.

Advertising drove me away from watching television and listening to the radio. And those aren't even the nasty, spying sort of ads that we have on the web.

I really see the day coming when I can no longer defend myself against advertisers enough to make it worth continuing to use the web at all.
This attitude assumes that bias is present only as random individual instances, not consistently across groups. What percentage of jobs are you willing to say that e.g black people should be willing to pass by?
I've noticed that too. In what cases is that useful? It seems unnecessary and actively harmful at times, like in this case.

First to invent is indicative of a policy that favors individual inventors over well-funded corporations.

Little inventors might like to shop an idea first and then file a patent application if they find traction or funding. US law allows for a one year grace period after disclosure. Fail to file within one year, all US patent rights are lost. Outside of the US, any public disclosure before filing bars a patent.

Big Corp has the money to file patent applications early before disclosure.

Now with first-to-file in the US, there still is a one-year grace period in the US, but the first applicant to file is the winner not the first to invent.

Among other things, this is bad for small inventors because bad actors can file patent applications on the small inventors' inventions first. Trolls can and do scour websites to identify inventions that may be worthwhile sniping. In the old days the inventors just need to show that they invented their invention before the troll filed their patent application. Now, you have to prove that the troll literally stole the idea which the USPTO doesn't really look into.
This article makes me truly appreciative that my product/service is not essientially a "commodity". Absolutely no disrespect intended for BackBlaze, as they have obviously gone the distance in adding value to their core "we store data" product.

That said, I generally find it easy to raise prices. Indeed, price discovery is "fun" in my tiny tiny niche. Basically, I just increase the price every time a new customer signs up. I honestly think this is completely fair to both past and new customers. Sign up early and you reap the benefits of lower cost. Sign up for a longer term and you keep those benefits.

It's a struggle with inflation, and I strongly appreciate the argument in accounting for it. It is so obviously real, yet customers seem to have an extremely hard time wrapping their heads around it.
Administrators remind me of the old lady who swallowed the fly, administrators to administrate the administrators, eventually they'll swallow the horse, maybe
zh-CN and zh-TW has nothing to do with that, and I'm virtually certain there are no "Taiwan images". in applications which provide zh-CN and zh-TW, including Firefox, the former means Simplified Chinese and the latter means Traditional Chinese. theoretically, it could mean Taiwanese Chinese, but then there would also be zh-HK, zh-MO, zh-SG...
The last point is key. There are so many options that provide relief for those who need it most that don’t bail out New York Times journalists who paid $150,000 for a Columbia English degree or big firm lawyers who paid $250,000 for a Columbia law degree. And given how much of the debt is subject to income-based repayment, there is also a set of options for bringing relief to those who don’t qualify to cap their loan payments at 10% of disposable income.

> large fully connected layers are bandwidth bound

Hmm, well that might be useful for the Radeon VII and its 1TBps bandwidth.

The #1 network of interest to me is the Leela-Zero network, which is basically a "deep" neural net with 50 layers of tiny 3x3. Something like Leela-Zero would definitely benefit from those Tensor Cores, and it'd be small enough to fit inside of L1 cache (or maybe even shared memory. I haven't looked into it too deeply though).

> Besides, nothing prevents AMD from implementing its own matrix multiply OP in the next generation of GPUs.

While that's true, its not really something this generation of hardware buyers can think about.

I think your point about large and fully connected layers may really benefit from the Radeon VII however. Someone should probably benchmark that kind of network between Radeon VII vs RTX 2080 (both $700-class GPUs).

They will have a place, for sure. Podcasts are still rising in popularity - they're a great platform for transferring knowledge and value and also debating.

Politics is sports and this is a chance to see which jersey you happen to be wearing. Personally, I find one side is actually attempting to argue from a logical standpoint whereas the other is concerned about the emotion evoked by the situation. This is apparent because you will be labelled insensitive if you attempt to point out the flaws.
This analysis ignores the social significance of divestment (i.e., which might somehow contribute to other actions which are more impactful), though it might still be that even after accounting for this divestment isn't what environmentally-conscious people and organizations should prioritize.

So where does the dollar to invest in climate innovation come from if you don't take the dollar out of the fossil fuel stock?

What he said was nonsensical and innumerate. Perhaps its because he has effectively infinite money?

His comment don't really hold up even under basic charity. The dollar in fossil fuels is a dollar not in another industry with a better story for the environment.

The rest of us have a limited pile of dollars to decide with.

This feels like one of those things that Americans say, that may not be true. Is this actually true? Do NSA employees state such an oath? Is defense of the constitution more important than defense of the nation if the two are in conflict?

Happy to be persuaded that this is true, but feels pretty glib to a non-American.

Which, arguably, should be a thing, so long as it's elevated in priority to the level of a debt to the IRS (i.e. can put liens on anything you own and garnish wages).

Similarly, if the Fed loans to these banks at a penalty rate -- presumably much more that regular risk-free loans like in e.g. securities a money market fund -- I wish the Fed would let people sign up for these programs so our idle cash could get lent out at that rate.

I’m not sure if you’re familiar with what Rails really is. It doesn’t have an admin panel.

Node is a language that you could compare to Ruby.

You can ostensibly do the exact same thing with Node that you could do with Ruby on Rails... but you’d be reinventing the wheel all over the place and duct taping lots of different modules together that all utilize different design patterns.

If you’re good at designing systems, you can do it just fine, albeit slower than I could with Rails. But it’s possible. I have nothing against Node but there’s a time and a place for all tools. Getting an MVP up is not one of them, imho.
I am surrounded by people in the primarily private-pay Mental Health space because my (romantic) partner is a consultant in a tiny cottage industry. In my case, it's 100% "people you know". Dealing in PII suuuuuuucks because I constantly have an elevated anxiety about it. However, if it wasn't PII plus the people I know and met......then I probably wouldn't have the opportunity I have.

That said.....had I not done "this", then I probably would have done something more lucrative and "easy". I see non-PII opportunities everywhere, and (mostly) only hang around because what I do now pays the bills.

I'd agree with Jack as well, prices do go up,I don't know that you need to fret so much over it (though certainly it's better than just chucking out out there, which is what 90% of companies do, accompanied by some thin BS justifying it that doesn't ring true).

But that said, Backblaze clearly has a strong culture of communication and engagement work their customers, and that really is the path to success. So if being overly sensitive about price increases is an unavoidable aspect of that culture - then keep doing what you're doing.

That’s the nonsense. What matters is how a company makes its money: Facebook and google are advertising companies, Apple is a consumer product company, amazon is a retail company, etc.

Hey, Cosmoteer dev here, I just want to give a quick explanation of why the game is currently Windows-only: Originally I tried making the game in Unity but ran into major performance problems with that engine, so I switched to my own engine (there weren't really any other options like Unreal available at the time). But because I'm only a solo developer and I do all my own programming, art, sound, and game design, my time is very limited, so I chose to concentrate only on one platform. (And obviously Windows is by far the largest market for PC games.) I do hope to support other platforms eventually, but I can't promise that and it will probably only happen if Cosmoteer is commercially successful enough on Windows to warrant the investment in other platforms.
It artificially deflates the demand for equity in fossil fuel companies. Which theoretically would result in lower willingness to invest in fossil fuel ventures. But these companies already exist, and artificial deflation of their stock price won't keep people from fueling up their cars.

I think a better strategy would be conditional investment tied to reduction in emissions. Have a mechanism to buy $X stock at a higher price in exchange for a power company to replace a coal plant with a gas one, or replace a gas plant with a solar farm.
No one is forced to take out any kind of debt; the issue is that typical debt is secured by an asset or dischargeable in bankruptcy. If you make severe mistakes with credit cards, you'll declare bankruptcy and the credit card companies will suffer. This imposes some market discipline on lenders. Banks are (ideally) not eager to make mortgages to people who are likely to become insolvent. Yes, I know about the Great Recession and this was part of the problem.

Severe student loans can be incurred starting at age 18 and aren't dischargeable. That's why they're uniquely pernicious. It's typically not possible to fuck up your financial life for decades via most debts, but it is with student loans. We don't know ourselves and the future is unpredictable, and that's why bankruptcy exists. Taking it out of the equation empowers predatory lenders and institutions.

Sorry, not explaining myself well.

Someone borrowing through the repo market is doing it to satisfy liquidity needs. They need the liquidity for some ongoing concern or investment or trade, or something (I don't know the details or relevant term, but it doesn't matter for the point).

That venture has some ROI. The temporarily higher repo rates have to be compared to that. That venture's costs are temporarily going from .002 percent to .02 percent of capital invested. Either way, a small portion. I don't see the emergency beyond "I wish this made the higher profit I am accustomed to".
That's intentional, I don't have much to hide. ;) I regularly point people to the cosmoteer.net/downloads directory.

Please show me the plain words, in the email thread which I have read in its entirety, where he says a 17 year old was consenting to being trafficked.

He has asserted in this thread:
* that sexual assault is too broad and vague a term; we should use narrower terms to more concretely describe actions, so as not to rise to mis-impressions (this is primary idea).
* that he thinks it is morally absurd to define rape based on location of occurrence.
* that he thinks it is morally absurd to define rape based on a 1 year age difference.
* that Minsky may not have been aware that Giuffre was being coerced (in his opinion, the most plausible scenario was that Minsky was not aware).
* that Giuffre herself did not, to his knowledge, level accusations at Minsky (she implicated him in a deposition against Epstein, but did not give details).

He has not (AFAICT) asserted in this thread:
* that Minsky did not commit a crime.
* that Minsky's actions were entirely moral.
* that Epstein's actions were neither criminal nor immoral.
* that a 17 year old was consenting to being trafficked.
