I was referring to their messages to the public about how to react to advances in AI. Your interpretations are about AI’s impact on society. I don’t disagree with your interpretations, but it definitely doesn’t make mine wrong. They’re different facets of the same conversation.
Colo: Three Hyper-V hosts on R620s. Goofball Quanta and Foxconn hardware for FreeNAS bare metal. All 2xE5v2 w/ 160-256GB RAM.

Home: Two VMware hosts on Hyve Zeus (Supermicro, 2xE5 64GB), one on an HP Microserver Gen8 (E3-1240v2 16GB). PiHole bare metal on a recycled Datto Alto w/ SSD (some old AMD APU, boots faster than a Pi and like 4w). Cloud Key G2 Plus for UniFi / Protect.

VMware because it's what I'm used to. Hyper-V because it's not. Used to have some stuff on KVM but :shrug:

Working weekends is basically giving your employer part of your work for free.

Would you accept a temporary pay deduction to demonstrate company loyalty?

For some this might work out well. For others, not so much. In any case I think that this needlessly puts the employer in a position of power.

I’d search for other, safer and healthier ways of proving your worth to the company.
I don’t think it makes sense not to sell your stock from a portfolio theory standpoint.

Product reviews are not seller specific so you cannot include seller-specific complaints there.

You need to leave a negative seller feedback instead, those are separate from product reviews.

The article has a pretty clear "main story ->side info -> main story -> side info" structure. So I just read the main story parts and thought it was a pretty good read.
I mean how else can you 'compose' data? Either through overriding things (inheritance) or as a Product (ConfigA, ConfigB) (Also inheritance).

Technically you can do CoProduct (ConfigA | ConfigB) (not inheritance) but the logic of unraveling such a type is too much for configs so it's very unlikely Hydra does this.
Firefox’s transition to WebExtensions has caused pain to developers and users, but there was a warning for some years about the transition. I still don’t like where the WebExtensions API support is, and Mozilla hasn’t done much for erstwhile popular extensions like Tab Mix Plus and many others. The case with Safari 13, IIRC, is that extensions have to be developed in Swift and have lesser access than before.

While I get the privacy benefits with block lists that have been/are being/will be implemented in these browsers, the overall extensions scene doesn’t look very good. Hopefully Firefox will delay or not go with everything that Manifest V3 proposes, whenever that becomes standard in Chrome.
It's really frustrating to have to work around this with hit or miss hidden inputs and such.

So many cases too where auto complete misfires an obliterated forms that had helpful placeholder text.

Just having a user change passwords and auto complete will often put an old saved password in the first field but not the second confirmation password field.
Thanks for the post, I am still playing with this, unless you are interested in republic of ireland or the UK national rail network, there's not a great deal of map yet to explore. I hope though that anyone knowledgeable about trying to do this kind of thing can appreciate where we ae going. I need to tweak the merging, and also get a lot more of Europe back on (I have rail stuff for western Europe and a few national bus networks) in order to demonstrate the merging better. The thing with this stuff is when it works you dont notice, but when it doesn't you end up with a big blob of uselessness. The point of blobbines and uselessness of the map comes very quickly with a metropolis as you can imagine. You cant even do a map of just Paris, which has a bus on seemingly every single backstreet in town, until you get this to work.
Apply to a university and do research programming.
You get paid less but nobody will want to do your job, they want to chase startup money.
You will have a degree and easily get in because you aren't talking to a recruiter, you're talking to a PhD who prob went to the same school you did.
It's the most satisfying work too, writing algorithms for a cancer lab or whatever they're doing at your university.
Anyway that's my advice, I too couldn't get any jobs in the beginning
I still love my MacBook Pro. It doesn’t feel dead to me at all. I’m okay knowing that iPhone and iPad are making lots of money for the company.

Yes, as a VIM user it took a minute to adjust to the missing ESC key. However converting the Caplock key to esc turned out to be a great ergonomic benefit for me. Yes I know there have been issues with the keyboard but they are resolving that. Yes the Touch Bar is a little gimmicky but it’s not bad, kind of neat and doesn’t cause a problem.

I’ve never been happier as an Apple customer as I am now. The products seem to continually improve and raise the bar for what I expect from a computer. I always feel bad for my co-workers who have to use Linux on ThinkPads or Windows.

Disclaimer: I used to work for Apple years ago and it was a great experience.
Fascinating hardware. How does it work? Does the iOS device use BLE to connect to the goTenna, which is then connected to the end device (Windows PC or something)? Or do you always need two goTenna devices?

Do you have a client who requires an interface to these devices? Or is it of general interest to you?
It surely isn't mine, otherwise I wouldn't be happily using Java 13 right now.

Also even Google does have more stuff going on Java, C++, Dart, Kotlin and TypeScript than Go, which has more uptake outside Googleplex.
I recall the last version of iPhoto, before it was junked, was more powerful in editing. The Photos app that replaced it was heavily crippled and still doesn’t have some features that iPhoto had.

Why are we building data centers in the desert? From an efficiency perspective, it just seems like a comically bad idea.
This will sound frivolous and ridiculous, but I have a toddler with constantly changing tastes and it's a nice way to be able to engage with and encourage their interests. For example, cars have been a huge deal lately, and being able to 1) print a bunch of logos for room decorations and 2) put the logos in areas that the kiddo finds onerous to encourage them to go there (e.g. How many cars can you name while we get changed for preschool) has been a life saver.

Plus it's nice to be the hero around the house when I can solve random maintenance problems with a quick search on Thingiverse or a couple of hours of designing and printing. Not sure it has literally paid for itself since I got one, but it has definitely be more useful than I expected and I would say it has been borderline indispensable for my household.

Is there any kind of compile-time check available for this (e.g. BIG COMPILER WARNING when you pass-by-value something that lacks Copy)? Seems like a lot of unsettlingly Python-esque freedom ("read the docs and don't screw up") for a language like Rust.

He also made that point.

But his point here is that if we’re willing to assign liability to PG&E for damages from a brushfire sparked tomorrow... if in your mind PG&E is truly responsible for any resulting death or destruction if a tree falls on their transmission lines during a time of critical fire risk and sparks a blaze.... then it is not only prudent, but it would be morally and economically imperative to shut down the lines during those critical risk periods.

There are several competing theories of liability and responsibility. Under strict liability, a fire happens, the root cause was an electrical spark, the utility is liable. You can’t operate a grid across all of California during 55mph winds at the end of the hot dry summer under those terms, and not go bankrupt.

From PG&E;

“California is one of the only states in the country in which courts have applied inverse condemnation to events caused by utility equipment. This means that if a utility’s equipment is found to have been a substantial cause of the damage in an event such as a wildfire – even if the utility has followed established inspection and safety rules – the utility may still be liable for property damages and attorneys’ fees associated with that event.”

There are a lot of variables in how damaging a wildfire may be. What sparked the fire is only one small variable in the chain of events. Forest management, building zones encroaching on forested areas, presence of fire brakes, disaster preparedness and response, emergency alerts all play a significant role, and those are just the factors CA can directly control. The weather, the climate is another matter.

“But for the spark” is a reductionist way to lay the blame for a multi-billion dollar fire. CA wildfires will burn every single year. The sparks are inevitable. The amount of preventative maintenance that theoretically can be done amounts to hundreds of billions of dollars.

It doesn’t serve CA’s common interest for electricity to cost $1/kWh. Risk mitigation is a statistical analysis, not an absolute. At some point you’ve invested enough that the risk is “mitigated” even if it isn’t “eliminated” and we accept this type of risk mitigation everywhere in modern life, the electrical grid should be no different.

How many people die driving on CA’s highways every year? How many could be saved with $100 billion of safety improvements? Do you shut them down until you can be certain no one else will die due to a deficient design or, perhaps, due to a gore point impact attenuator that hasn’t been reset?

A cursory look at PG&E financials shows that on ~$17b in revenue they spend ~$5b on supply and ~$7b on maintenance. They had been running $1-$1.5b surpluses the last few years. I wonder looking at other utilities how those ratios would stack up.

Would $1b more maintenance have prevented the Camp Fire? Entirely impossible to say. We do know that the full maintenance list runs into the $10s if not $100s of billions.
Possible indeed, Keynes pointed that out a couple generations ago. And as always it depends solely on whether society is run such that people benefit from or compete with technology.
Everything I run is in a deterministic, rebuildable LXC container or KVM virtual machine.

I have around 10 desktops that run in containers in various places for various common tasks I do. Each one has a backed up homedir, and then I have a ZFS-backed fileserver for centralized data. I connect to them using chrome remote desktop or x2go. I've had my work machine die one time too many, so with these scripts I can go from a blank work machine to exactly where I left off before the old one died, in a little over an hour. None of my files are stuck to a particular machine, so I can run on a home server, and then when I need to travel, transfer the desktop to a laptop, then transfer it back again when I get home. Takes about 10 minutes to transfer it.

I also run most of my server apps this way:

My EV (a leaf) has a built in DC-DC converter to power the 12 volt system and charge the 12 volt battery - it will supply a kilowatt when the car is turned on.

In previous blackouts I have connected a kilowatt inverter to the car and used it to power stuff. It worked great and it was very useful.
> It seems to reduce the potential for security leaks

Misguided views like this are exactly how. Turning off autocomplete doesn't improve any sort of security, since the site already needs to trust the browser.

It serves no purpose other than to frustrate the user, and might even reduce security if it prevents the user from easily making use of a password manager.
I also love my MBP. In addition I sometimes have to use a 2015-ish MBP and it feels really clunky (thick, heavy) to me.

I saw an ad for an electric BMW on Reddit today. The very first sentence was "forget other electric vehicles." This tells me that someone writing copy for a living was employed as a measure to somehow increase interest and sales. The only thing they could do was reference other companies that make EV's (I'm not even going to say the name of the one that everyone will automatically think of when instructed to "forget other EVs").
It causes spec-compliant password managers to not work.

Unfortunately, disabling autocomplete for password fields is an often used form of security-theatre
Very nice. We recently stayed in Corfu and I wondered about pickling after I tasted some olives from a tree. Now I regret that I didn't pick some to test your methods.
No, I'm afraid that you can't materially reduce the fires by preventing some (small) number of ignitions. The problem is the dry brush buildup. Something will spark it eventually.

Having someone to blame is fun politics, but it's not going to get California out of the mess. It's not even a fire management problem. California covers a region of the world that has been having decades or centuries-long drought phases for millennia. The last few decades were built up during the good times. It's getting dryer now, and there will be more fires throughout this dry phase, however many years or decades it lasts.
Ha, I thought I was being novel pointing out how convenient it was for solving the myriad problems that come with parenthood. I printed a bunch of car logos for my vehicle-obsessed kid to stare at, name, and futz with during diaper changing time and it has figuratively paid for itself in terms of mitigating piddling power struggles.

Plus I cannot express the collective relief my spouse and I felt when I was able to repair a poorly designed part on the malfunctioning coffee maker in an hour's time. We're solving the real problems here.
> to working in louder than necessary cafes

The loudness of cafes is necessary, at least to the business owner. Across the world, even in countries where cafes used to be peaceful places for reading and long conversations, owners have increasingly preferred to blast loud music and remove sound-dampening. The constant din has a subconscious effect on customers, leading them to leave the establishment after they finish their drink. So, they quickly free up the table for the next customers. People occupying a table for hours on just one or two purchases is one of cafe owners’ most frequent complaints.

I can sympathize with your sensitivity to noise – I pack earplugs for working in cafes – but if you are wearing blatant ear muffs you may well be pissing the proprietor off.
It more generally burns me out that we as a society still feel it is necessary to construct and reinforce so arbitrary an apparatus as copyright to substantially stymie the tremendous potential information exchange of computer networks.

Of all the ways to try to promote creativity in the 21st century, making information distribution illegal by default and then using force of law to restrict said distribution unless authorized is pretty wack.
I use this free software application on my phone at night: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mcxa.softsound/ F-Droid also has another app called Noice which is more modern and has more features&sounds, but I prefer the sound samples in this one.

I just put the phone in the charger in my bedroom and turn up the volume a bit, though I am considering getting speakers since the rain sound doesn't sound 100% perfect through the phone speakers.

I use a mix of storm@100%, rain @90%, and wind+fire at 70-80%.

I don't have an issue with loud neighbours, but it helps to fall asleep and makes a daily routine which also helps with falling asleep fast.
Well, if you want to say that Apple killed the MacBook Pro, mention the keyboard and the touch bar at least.
>>What Go lacks is exactly its strengths.

Surely you understand that this is a very self-serving attitude, though?

It's like someone points out that your car is crippled because it has a turning radius of 2 degrees and also has no brakes, and you go, "no but you see, what this car lacks is exactly its strengths! And it's those strengths that I enjoy the most when driving this car!"
It exists, and they’re building, but it’s only linking the powerhouse cities of Merced, Fresno and Bakersfield. So I’m sure it’ll be packed 7 days per week.

If you're acquired it depends on how the integration works. Sometimes it turns out that they can't make the incentives align.
plenty of stuff (like credit card info for instance) should absolutely never be auto-completed. The browser storing that sorta stuff to disk is stupid and completely avoidable.

Already caught chrome doing this to my Social Security Number before i disabled the functionality entirely. The idea of Chrome automatically auto filling any form it sees labeled "SSN" on any site dosen't inspire confidence.
I don’t follow you. I have accurately described what they actually said in the China video. Your descriptions were wrong. It has nothing to do with my point of view. Go review the video.
I mean... that’s the point I was making. Interface is just like using a dynamically typed language. So saying python can do this but golang can’t is wrong. They are effectively the same.

RE: Permutation, the unmarshalled value will only ever be float64, bool, string, interface[], or map[string]interface. The nested interfaces are recursively defined. It’s literally just like doing it in rust, except the compiler won’t do exhaustiveness checks for you.
I think the UX of this idea will be bad, just like the UX of the Mac has declined, both resulting in lower developer support for the platform over time.

Just a theory. Not sure why Cook wants to test it.
> Yes I know there have been issues with the keyboard but they are resolving that.

They've said that a couple of times. I'll believe it when I see it.

Why? I mean I've worked as a sysadmin using macs since they switched to Intel but at this point I'd switch to an X1 Carbon running Fedora if my 2013 Retina died. (And yes I had one of the newer ones at my last job)
How is the experience of being "ramen rich"? Care to expand how it changes your day to day work or relationship with work?
A lot of banks charge here in Germany. My previously free bank has started charging, presumably because of the low interest rates which make it hard to be profitable. A couple of online only banks are still free if you have enough turnover, however. Germany has a crazy number of small banks, compared to the likes of he UK.
My point is Apple, and Cook, should be looking at this as an Apple problem.

My question is the question they should be asking themselves.
I don't think many people are ever gonna feel nostalgic about firing up their 48 server rack and paying a $1000 power bill.
I read the article and can’t seem to find “the trick.” The closest thing is a recommendation to mention
“AirPod battery service.” I actually quite like my AirPods, and would probably pay for a newer version, but hate the idea there’s no way I could replace the battery myself.

I felt similarly about the first gen Tiles and ultimately (carefully) cut mine open to replace the batteries. I became fairly proficient, but it never goes back together quite the same way.

I wonder if there’s some form of conformal coating that could be removed with only a very specific solvent. That would allow repairs to non-repairable devices, to reattain an IP rating after an unofficial repair.
Yes, but he isn't exactly wrong about it either, and sure it seems as though it has really affected him, but Apple too need to take a look into their near past, and introspect things. Sure, they seem to be suddenly overcompensating the Mac fans by launching things out of the blue like the new Mac Pro or the iMac Pro, but with no real incentive to the average user to upgrade into their desktop hardware anymore, for one the price tag itself would turn off desktop enthusiasts who would prefer to either just build their own rigs, or go for other tower vendors, and moreover the latest Mac hardware just doesn't offer anything remarkable for their prices other than premium aesthetic looking machines that one would assemble themselves. Sure, people trash the trashcan Mac Pro but it was something truly original at the time and still maybe. And the same goes for the Macbook Pro line.
Agreed on password fields, however if you have a webapp crm it causes so many problems. And also giving a solution of "hey just put something that we don't understand in the autocomplete so we won't try to autocomplete it" is really not a solution at all.

Imagine if instead of autocomplete it was something like ignoring font sizes/color because they detected that engagement was low when font size was whatever so they render it differently. A browser should render HTML not make decisions like these
>Poor review practices in journals are not limited to the humanities and social sciences.

to what extent? surely it's significantly less than that of math and "hard sciences"

>I would also suggest that making it through a Ph.D. program in the humanities is incredibly grueling

working in a sweatshop is grueling work. when you're in a factory for 12 hours a day what's being worked is your obedience, your self-control. not necessarily strength or intelligence.

There may be disagreement about whether the effort needed to hold a job is “minimal”; but usually,in lower-to-middle-level jobs, whatever effort is required is merely that of OBEDIENCE. You sit or stand where you are told to sit or stand and do what you are told to do in the way you are told to do it.

The only requirements are a moderate amount of intelligence and, most of all, simple OBEDIENCE.
There's an app opportunity here. Write something which captures audio, timestamps it with millsecond accuracy, annotates it with GPS info, and sends it to a web site for correlation. When you want to find some noise source, get a few people to walk around running this app. Then the site can locate it from the time differences, with a much longer baseline than human inter-ear distance.
