"I’m a bit surprised by Helix’s idea that answering this question might get me into trouble, because it’s not something that’s debated among the people who go to competitions. It’s well known that he uses memory techniques like a ‘regular person’ - he was a regular at the world championships for years, slightly before my time (though we did meet in 2000), and always talking about the specific techniques he used. It’s not really that much of a secret…"

There also is a Letterman interview where he behaved rather normal, to the point that Letterman asked him if he was actually autistic (Letterman clearly did not believe it).
No, honestly. He contributes little bugfix patches to projects here and there to various projects, but he doesn't want to maintain software for anyone else (fair, I think -- he did spend an entire career doing that).

He makes (pretty cool) side-scrollers for this grandchildren, tools for himself. He sometimes complains that he's not sure what to build, but he figures it out. He also has a Mac and a Linux box (running Gentoo, I think). That keeps him busy!

It's unfortunate, living out here, that people are flipping their collective shit over the power outages, at least on the internet. Not a single real person I know is angry about this, although I can understand anger if you were actually negatively impacted.

We have no way of knowing what would have happened without the power outages. PG&E's actions may have prevented a fire in this otherwise difficult situation, as they cannot magically fix the infrastructure with the snap of a finger. Sounds like I should thank the judge though!

We have been very close to the edge over the past few decades (see the Petrov story circa 1983) but there was one mitigating feature: at least nuclear launch control was held by a relatively small number of mostly politically stable actors. This situation didn’t exist by accident: it was maintained deliberately by the world’s various powers, typically at great cost. The rise of NK as a nuclear power isn’t a global threat all by itself, but it represents the unraveling of seventy-odd year’s of that status quo. If NK gets and keeps its nukes while participating in the global community, why not Iran? And if Iran succeeds, why not the next dozen countries, all of whom see some offensive or defensive value in holding them. For example: Japan and South Korea if either one determines we aren’t going to protect them from NK. And once nuclear capability spreads to dozens of countries, all entangled in various alliances and with varying degrees of stability, the probability of a launch followed by a chain reaction get much higher.

Many people think about Intel branding this way. And I blame Intel for the confusion. The number after the "i" is not what matters when comparing chips between generations, it's the number after. This is a 3rd generation chip as you can see it's a 3000 series.

Currently for sale are generation 9 (9000), and these are even out the door soon. 10th gen is right around the corner.

Within these thousand series are the ACTUAL part numbers.

These names are even more confusing but are what tell you the real power of a chip within the lineup for that year.

>>> Most professors are unneeded given the size of the problem space.

>most subjects are too deep for the professor to be knowledgable about more than just their specialty

>in many cases, the size of the problem space is much too big for a single group of researchers to have any effect on it.

>most studies do not have the manpower available to do a completely formally-correct ideal study

I agree that the size of the problem space requires a lot of researchers. This is probably why there's so much attention focused on machine learning and big data, since they seem to have the potential to address the problems you've listed here. Of course, there are many technical and ethical issues to be confronted in developing and deploying them.

>If research were _truly_ a priority for humanity, and we really dumped all of our effort into scientific research as a society (i.e. governments and companies both prioritized R&D and gave the scientists enough resources to actually do the jobs properly)

It's not, because the greatest problem for humanity is still subsistence, which requires solving a massive resource distribution problem. There are some governments and some companies that do prioritise R&D and provide enough resources, but they are too few and far between.

>psychological, sociological, medical, and most other fields of research that aren't mathematical, are considered dubious.

>then we might see these fields as "hard science" rather than "soft science".

It seems to me that these fields are "soft" in part because the ethical issues surrounding the surveillance that's needed to collect the data to do a formally correct study are quite formidable.
And another reason is standardization. It's a lot easier to use or tweak any given network if it is implemented in the same framework.

Hmm. I get other people to build my car, grow my food, generate my electricity, extract and refine my petrol, clean my water, I've rented cars, I get others to fly planes for me that I don't own, I use trains others drive and own.

I do everything for little to nothing in my life, and there's no reasonable default as to where the line is other than a cost/benefit comparison.

For my for many years owning a car was far more expensive than renting or getting taxis when needed. Owning a car absolutely would have been an expensive hobby, and the same is true for many in cities.

Having a personal server is exceptionally cheap. I had a VPS unnoticed recently I'd forgotten to cancel which cost about 10 dollars per year. That's about one minimum wage hour where I live. If you mean literally a personal server a raspberry pi can easily run a bunch of things and can cost about the same as a one off.

It's time, and upfront costs of software. If I want updates, and I do (security at least) I need some ongoing payments for those, and then I need to manage a machine. That management is better done by people other than me (as even if they earned the same as me they'd be faster and better) and they can manage more machines without a linear increase in their time.

So why self host? Sometimes it'll make sense, but the idea it should be the default to me doesn't hold. Little needs to be 100% in house, and sharing things can often be far more efficient. Software just happens to be incredibly easy to share.

That's what makes reading this piece 12 years later so interesting - there was definitely fear of a bubble in 2007 (probably partly due to the trauma of the 2000 dotcom bust) even though in retrospect there definitely wasn't.

That was my initial assumption, but the air quality seems both plausible and fixable. Worth investigating.

For most (not Peek), memory and knowledge are necessarily linked since memory tends to work better when there is a previously existing connection to attach a new piece of information to.

So, we don't tend to remember facts for the sake of facts. This obviously isn't always true, but for vast amounts of information, it would be very difficult to remember single "nodes" of information without having some connection to other information.

Memory contestants use this to their advantage, by creating some sense of story and/or place to attach the otherwise arbitrary information, like digits or cards, to.

What I am gathering from this is the author is displeased with the concept of bundling modeling of the application domain with the mutation of the state indicated by the same model properties. This is more-or-less the original ideal of OOP: Put all of your properties as well as the methods to act on those properties into a single, well-defined class.

In my experience as a C# developer, this is not an ideal approach. I assume non-OOP developers have a perspective that this is how we actually go about things. In reality, my strategy is generally to declare POCOs - Plain Old CLR Objects - which effectively just serve to model the business domain as collections of basic properties (basic data types, collections, enums, other model types) without any methods, constructors, attributes, etc.

If you look in the Models folder in any project I currently work on, you will not find a single method declaration in any of the class files. All of the functionality is broken out into crosscutting abstractions such as a Logic or Rules namespace. The general idea is this: Why should I build a model specifically for this one context of usage and have the properties tightly-coupled to their mutators, when I can completely decouple these things and have the models operate with any arbitrary state mutators? In my experience, the modeling of all possible business facts can be done completely independently of how those facts should mutate over time. Another thing to consider is that not all business facts are relevant at all times, but that doesn't mean you can't catalog them all within the same logical business model (e.g. a 'Customer.cs' POCO). Null is a very powerful tool if used responsibly.

Taking this a step further, you can have a business model project (class library/Nuget) that is shared across multiple projects within an organization. Since you have included no specific implementation in the model classes pertaining to how their properties are read/written, you can use these unencumbered in any situation. Mix in a little bit of JSON serialization and you get a really quick and easy way to distribute a common contract and interoperate between various business systems. These projects can also effectively serve as your principal documentation of the business domain model.
One thing I've noticed is that it's quite hard to have vibrant discussions about DL because it is all either so simple or it is dauntingly complicated/unpredictable. Mostly my DL conversations end up being about frameworks. Anyone else experience this?

When I was in grade school, students took turns cleaning and maintaining the school. It was also a lesson in democracy, since we had a meeting every month, run according to regular procedure, where students were elected to the various jobs such as sweeping the floor, washing the blackboards, cleaning the erasers, emptying the wastebaskets and burning trash, maintaining the outhouses, and pumping and bringing in drinking water.
