Men hitting on women and women not liking it is a phenomenon as old as humanity itself. The idea that it's "vile" is relatively new. Women can say no. If he doesn't take the hint, there are procedures they can start to correct his behaviour. Or they can report him to his wife and trigger social consequences that way.

Or they can say yes and enjoy a romantic relationship - as for example happened with Bill Gates and Sergey Brin (twice). Clearly, not every woman thinks it's "vile" to be asked out at work. If I recall correctly Melinda Gates even said no the first time. Lucky for her she wasn't meeting Bill in 2019.

Regardless of how these women felt, being asked out by a married guy is simply not as bad as being openly excluded from promotions and job opportunities because of your gender or race: as happens regularly to men these days, usually at the behest of activist female workers.
There's no incentive for Qualcomm to catch up. The flagship handset manufacturers have nowhere else to go and really only competing with each other.

Faster chips also mean more expensive chips, which would erode their price competitiveness against the iPhone especially since they don't have the volumes of the iPhone. In particular A series chips have huge and higher spec caches compared to the Qualcomm chips, which take a lot of die space, which is the prime factor in chip costs.

Finally, for Qualcomm to bring out a super-premium A series killer they would have to know, for a fact, that all the Android manufacturers would adopt it. If they didn't the per-unit costs would make them prohibitively expensive. They just don't have the guaranteed volumes. If enough manufacturers passed, the project would be a financial disaster. It's just too risky.

I was on a jury a few months ago (in the UK) where we were given the transcript of the police interview. If it had been a series of refusals to answer, it would have looked very shady. The shock and surprise of the accused was palpable from the transcript and believeable.
Out of Prison and Out of Work: Unemployment Among Formerly Incarcerated People
So can we equeate the term 'offering employment' to 'offering exploitation'?

Unless exploited by force (slavery). The employed/expolited are free to find their true value by alternavtive means? Find another job - less exploitive, or make your own job.

There are many problems with capitalism, I would argue taxation, or more appropriately lack of taxation is a greater concern.

As for the scenario if everyone had 5m in their accounts in the morning, only the most foolish would quit their jobs as inflation would render the windfall as null and void.

We all cannot be equally well-off. Value will always flow, and eventually concentrate.
The opposite is idleness, which we also do not particularly enjoy and will make ourselves play to avoid.

It's a spectrum. Too busy or too idle for too long and we break.
Some people do not perceive this, they're either workaholics or aboulics.

This is definitely a thorny problem.

I've seen so many terrible lawyers cost clients thousands upon thousands of dollars, because the lawyer doesn't really know how to fight the case, or lacks the skill.

And none of us think about this problem until we need it, and by then the situation is too urgent to research slowly and methodically.

Hopefully someone will solve. Seems like maybe business idea material.

> Typically the value of a computer is about the same as the sum of its parts, because otherwise plenty of people would be up for a $270 profit by buying $30 worth of parts and assembling them to sell as a $300 computer.

From another comment: My understanding is in the current design certain expensive things, like the SoC+Security-Enclave are certed/secure-booted, and I imagine other parts are just generic / "off the shelf" plug in and power up and go.
> [in C++] it can actually be fairly challenging to do unit tests without mocks

Yes, but you can write integration tests instead. There’s no rule that says that unit testing must cover every aspect of the software. Unit test those units that can be used in isolation, integration test the rest. Case in point, our main software at work, written in C++, has close to 100% test coverage, and uses almost no mock tests. Instead, we have extensive integration tests where unit testing without mocking doesn’t work.

And, again: I’m not saying that there are no tradeoffs involved in that. But the benefit of having a drastically simpler code architecture outweigh the cost of having to move those tests into integration.

Incidentally this is vastly easier when the architecture cleanly separates business logic from general logic and moves as much of it as possible into side-effect free general-purpose functions.

What I find really appalling, besides the letters by the lawyer is that the attempt to have her changed was submittd to court on a pre-printed form, which means logically that it is very commmon to have "free" defenders doing nothing.

The way the form is laid down, the five pre-printed "statements of facts" are an exact list of infringements to all the duties that a public defender should have and represent IMHO serious accusations that in other countries would likely trigger at the very least an "ethics" investigation on the lawyer.

Besides any reason, true or false, given for requesting the change of one's defense, having it granted should be a basic right.
A monad is for composing computations with effects: let's say you have some function f:: a -> b returning some b, but now you need the computation to happen with some extra effect (throwing exception, changing state, futures, etc).

A way to model effects is to have f :: a -> Tb, where T is a type constructor encapsulating a value of type b produced with some effect. Let's call this new f a T-program, then a monad is exactly what you need to compose T-programs nicely.

The monad "return" is the simplest T-program, and the monad "bind" helps you compose T-programs: given another T-program g :: b -> Tc, you cannot simply compose g with f since the types don't match. However, the bind operator >>= :: (b -> Tc) -> Tb -> Tc gives you a function (>>= g) :: Tb -> Tc which does compose with f, producing a new T-program: a -> Tc. So now you can compose T-programs, yay! The monad laws ensure that T-programs form a category, which is to say that composition works the right way.

So a monad is just the plumbing you need to compose computations with effects in a nice way.
I feel like Suspense has been in development for a decade now. I know, I know.. They should not release it until they are comfortable about its stability. But still, all the teasers and pushed back roadmaps are not helping at this point.

This is because I feel like it's gonna be great for our apps and can't wait to try it on production though.
Textual analysis on Shakespeare have also identified sections likely written by other authors. For example the role of the witches in Macbeth have been expanded (and Hecate introduced) by another author, probably because they were popular with the audiences.

> If I am paid to dig ditches in Haiti, is my true value different from digging ditches in Monaco?

Wording aside (true vs. relative vs. real, etc.) there is a point to this concept and I think we all know it instinctively. Perhaps it could be called "global value" vs. "local value".

Your "true" (global) value is digging the most valuable trench you could possibly dig. Whether the trench is in Haiti saving millions from famine, or in Monaco saving priceless casinos from collapsing. Digging a lesser trench simply means you are not achieving your true value but limiting yourself to a lower value that your employer extracts from you.

The best coder in the world could make billions of $ or improve billions of lives with some genius piece of code. But if they choose to dig trenches in Haiti helping 3 people it means much of that true value is lost.

I do my PHP in completely different way, which in turn was the way I did ASP back in the day, also in a weird way.

All my HTML is held in template .html files, with %%PLACEHOLDER%% text where the dynamic content should be, Then my index.php is the main 'app' loading in the templates to build the output, doing string replaces on the html, and then a single final 'echo' to send the result to the user at the end of the process.

I think this is called 'code behind' - I've just always had a problem with mixing code and layout in the same file.

Does anyone else do it like this?
I did my PhD in cell biology a few years ago and I am seriously sceptical about the Kickstarter campaign. There are too many questions and way too few control experiments.
What you can see about their preliminary research is the rotation device and the pictures of the cells. From what I have learned during my studies is that it is easy to kill cell cultures and it is difficult to compare different cell lines. For example, most cells need a very controlled environment (temperature, growth medium, pH, a specific amount of cells per area and not too many or too few neighbouring cells etc.)
This rotation device appears to be at room temperature and creates a shear flow, which is enough to kill most cell cultures. The picture they show is not helpful at all, as they just show dying cells.
As others stated: you need more control experiments. One would be to keekp a bottle of cells in the machine, without rotation. That's really cheap and easy to compare, which they did not.
(not addressing the issue that that's not real microgravity)
I hope to find time later to find their publications, until then I don't believe this to be real.

Edit: I cannot find anything that's even looking like research. News articles all referring Chou, but nothing to show for it. No paper or data. Now it looks even worse.
Any lawyer not overburdened by public defense cases should be an improvement.
Nice stuff, CSS art and design is keeping my artistic side alive while i learn programming
Without going into details of my case and even what type of law it was related to, here is my eight years wasted forever and $240,000 dumped on expensive lawyers that got nowhere: never find lawyer in yellow pages or by referal from friends because every case is different. Always look for lawyers that used to have government job, were prosecutors or even judges (it happens). Like OP said its a game of legal system not a system of justice - you would be suprised how far “buddies that used to work in the same building” can go before anyone can call it a bribe. In my case four lawyers burnt time and money never getting anywhere. I got very inexpensive lawyer that turned out to work for government before. By the end of my free consulatation he got response via personal email from government employee that was holding up my case (indefinitely). By end of week it was positively resolved at the retainer of $2,400.

I agree with the statement that oppressive regimes around the world abuse this, but I would argue it's up to peoples of those countries to fight back.

"They don't need to use PSN to communicate." but they do, and that's the issue. We know they use publicly accessible communication systems that law enforcement needs to have visibility over _when required and approved by a judge_. Therefore I think the issue is how do we make sure that law enforcement can access such data when they genuinely need to? What laws need to change in that regard, instead of what laws need to be made so we can obscure their visibility even more, and have the likes of ISIS or other organised cults / crime rings organise right in front of us. To be honest, although a very bad thing, i'd rather have one person falsely accused rather than 100 people dead because of a terrorist attack organised on the PSN network that we just wouldn't hand data over, so we can protect kids' privacy over making jokes about "yo mama".
I suspect your initial gut feeling was correct but the market is staying irrational longer than it should.

An option that I like to use is Middleman (or any other static site generator) for creating the pages and Netlify for hosting, all for free even with your own domain and HTTPS.

You have nice static HTML pages with a CDN, super fast, and there's even a CMS option with NetlifyCMS, which works by creating git commits for you and then automatically pushes the new static version on Netlify. The basics in Netlify are free and there are nice add-ons where some are also free (e.g. forms).

In the UK silence can be taken as proof of criminality. In the US the following statement would mean there is no transcript:

> Question for people who use these CLIs to start projects: Since there's so much prebaked functionality in the generated code, do you get distracted by it, when working on it?

Depends on the CLI. The AWS SAM CLI or create-react-app or poetry for python, no. But certainly I've run into some where that's the case.

> The CLI probably enables a few dozen features, of which you might use a handful of.

Depends on the CLI. Certainly many do not have this problem.

> Little to no mental energy is spent worrying about side effects or filtering through code that's not only not relevant to my current work, but has no present value in the project at all.

Yeah, and that's nice, but IME this isn't a problem with code from a good-fit-for-purpose CLI; this isn't a place where I'm burning energy with, e.g., SAM or poetry, or even CRA (though in the last case I can imagine circumstances where it would be an issue, but it hasn't been for me in practice.)
Vastly improved rocketry could also make things like a huge mirror to shade the planet feasible.
A good idea is to keep a list of lawyers, attorneys and other "can-use" people handy. Having a close one have access to that list and your banking details can help as he'll make the calls.
The UK doesn't have the same right to silence. Nor anything about taking the fifth either. Refusal to answer could be taken as obstruction of justice or contempt of court, and will likely be considered relevant information for a jury.
Love Proxmox. It has its quirks but overall a great platform for home usage (labs etc) and for small businesses.

You must change the product if you still want to achieve market fit somehow.
That's true, I forgot about those.
They increase the friction of having a rooted phone though. Also many apps seem to implement some custom checks, some even refuse to work reliably on unrooted phones, e.g., barclaycard. When I had lineageOS flashed on one of my older phones I couldn't get my banking apps to run, although I only tried 2 or 3 "hide root" solutions.

I believe that reliably rooting is

* Not an option for the general population,
* Not desired by large parts of the general population,
* An option taken by people that are more willing to try alternative apps anyways.
* Counter to people that just want a system that works.

While preinstalled apps target the general population not willing to change but may be willing to try things they already have anyways. The motivation is the same for google to have their apps preinstalled (even forcing OEMs to install them when all the OEMs want is the play store).

Overall I think: forcing preinstallation is an attempt to support local companies and cost foreign ones users. For this the (small) group of people rooting their phone is probably irrelevant.

LibriSpeech test clean is without background noise, with a good microphone, and most likely biased to native speakers (it is 50/50 male/female at least). In summary, it's not what an ASR engine will encounter. However, the dataset is used as a common method to benchmark ASR engines and thus that number is valuable. The SpecAugment paper by Google for example claims a 2.5% word error rate [1] on that corpus (using only LibriSpeech for training data).

My fear is these systems promise great results for execs who build models to answer new questions by themselves. And that's just irresponsible.

I do forecasting in my job, and use Hyndman's `forecast` R package. I totally rely on it's automated model creation.
That said, I only have the moderate confidence in its results because I took the time to research forecasting and started with an understanding of how to use data to answer questions. (To be clear, any lack of confidence in the results is from a fear I'm doing it wrong).

Non-data people are terrible at choosing the right data to answer the question. Sure, automating the model terms or even the choice of model is probably done better by machine, with human tweaking only needed for rare cases. But domain experts will often choose totally wrong numbers for models to predict.

If the target's obvious (e.g., quarterly revenue they already have a method for calculating), then letting execs do it themselves is probably fine. But I'd never trust them to take an abstract question, choose an appropriate measure to answer it, and then find good data without consulting a skilled analyst.
