I downloaded it, but compiler design is not my area. I do like his talks and he champions Iverson's Notation as a Tool of Thought very well. I hope to read it over the holiday.
In another thread someone shared their experiences with their password manager too. Even after hundreds of thousands of players coming in I never heard or realized this was a problem. I'll do my best to polish this. Thanks for your time though!
You can, but the application needs to support this.
Basically that's there to protect Katerina's illustrations. The reverse-engineering has been achieved by a bunch of people and that's ok but exploiting the work she put into each design was really frustrating.
It is useless to make claims about a particular fuel without looking at a concrete reactor design. Leftover isotopes for example are very dependent on neutron flux and neutron energy as well as general breeding properties of the reactor. This in turn decides the waste to be dealt with, proliferation risk and possible reuse of leftover fuels from previous generation reactors (which the submission didn't even discuss).

Also, the answers lack nuance. E.g. proliferation risk is present through U233, however, U233 seems very difficult to deal with in bombmaking. So at least it's less of a problem maybe.
I’m not sure they can. How would that work? It’s not at all obvious to me, unless you explicitly provide that information by creating an account and logging in.

Tracking pixels are incapable of such feats. At best they have your IP address from the latest visit, and information about your behavior on that site. I don’t see how they can magically conjure information you haven’t provided.
This is pretty cool. We use some awful enterprise software for timesheets (Deltek) and its frustrating enough that I only enter information once per week. During the week I use my outlook calendar, creating events corresponding to projects and hours worked.

A nice feature would be to export the Timelite log into an ical file or directly into calendar.
I was camping with my father above Tuolumne Meadows near Yosemite in 1986. We just had sleeping bags, no tent.

As we bed down for the night, four tiny black diamonds silently flew overhead to the west. Absolutely creepy to see things so abstract and quiet.

Didn't make sense until the reveal in 1988, but it was four nighthawks heading from Nevada to the Pacific Ocean.

What if its competition?
Not the case. Some VDSOs just forward to regular system calls. Try clock_gettime with CLOCK_BOOTTIME sometime. (I need to send a patch to fix this. Maybe over Christmas.)

Requiring that every system call go through a VDSO would be great because it would give us a "hook" for changing system behavior before entering the kernel, which is a good thing, because in the age of speculative execution mitigations, entering the kernel is expensive, just like in the days of yore.
For those skeptical of psychedelics being used for anything but recreational situations, I recommend a recent book How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan.

The author goes through the story of different psychedelics (including LSD) and shows how impressive some of the experiences and studies are. It did change my view completely. This article [1] also summarizes how close we are to use them for medical purposes.

Yes, you can detect projections via radar. This projections aspect was also my thought on this for a while and I did some research on it. I’ll append the link to the paper later. Another thing that comes to mind is there was a post here recently that talked about concentrated laser beams technology which looks interesting to consider.

Probably the easiest way to explain the erratic behavior.
The comment is in response to one noting that people don't comparison shop because nobody else is a meaningful competitor for Prime. It doesn't make sense without the implication that Costco also has no meaningful competition.
Of the research I’ve read, many scientists suggest that it’s the accumulation of plaques that cause Alzheimer’s.[0]

There’s uncertainty as to what protein is responsible for the degenerative effects.[1]

My bias exists for the fact that I believe the cure to Alzheimer’s is removing or preventing the development of this plaque. At least I’ve been lead to believe this is among the most promising cures.[2] Amyloid protein is particularly tricky because it’s insoluble. I don’t think we could develop a purely chemical solution for the fact that it would likely be destructive to our own biology. And I think both gene expression and enzyme production are unlikely to be able to changed with just a drug.

It's not a sentiment, it's a question. I don't have an agenda here, I'm just trying to understand.

> If all programs need to go through libc, doesn't that mean they are all equal?

It means that all programs need to link libc into their binary, whether statically or dynamically. Part of the reason-de-etre for Rust seems to be as a replacement for C and C++ so it would seem peculiar to me that the C library would become a forced dependency for compiled languages like those. But as the other poster pointed out, you can disable it anyway, so no matter.
Several things in this FAQ are frequently contradicted, which I'm not sure what to make of.
Add a confirmation sounds like a good idea. CSV exports are definitely on the menu, pretty easy to add.

I think some of the misunderstanding in these comments comes from not fully appreciating the perspective of not-for-profit organisations. While I can't speak for Khan Academy, I know that in every NFP organisation I have worked for there is an acute awareness that funding could dry up one day and the prime directive is to ensure that in a scenario like that, the work of the organisation can continue.

In this case, it leads to a higher concern about minimising the cost of the operational services than you might have in a for-profit organisation. In all the strategic planning I have been involved in with NFP, we always have the "what if worst case scenario arises" plan and in that plan the ability to scale down to bare minimum operational cost is key. It may not be conscious but I suspect that may be part of the reason the performance savings from moving to Go are so attractive in this case, where most profit-making companies just ask the question of whether they can afford to pay for the servers with their current margin or not and if they can they have more important things to worry about.

Sites do look UnDraw-ish. I noticed a lot of sites using the flat-front-on-people type illustrations.
I interpreted that more as, the mere fact that a technology exists will offend some people. Automation that puts people out of a job, for example, offends a lot of people, especially those who will be most directly affected. It doesn’t mean those people don’t deserve compassion and assistance, but their taking offense shouldn’t prevent someone from working on automation (in my opinion). I think that goes for a lot of technologies.

And some not technologies. I’m a lawyer and recently there has been movement toward letting people who aren’t lawyers do things that are traditionally considered the practice of law, like creating and filing certain legal documents. Most of the documents are ones that are already done almost exclusively by paralegals and secretaries, but I regularly see articles arguing for restricting this couched in the language of protecting people from malpractice. It seems to me to be a case of lawyers who worked hard for their status being offended by change that would lower the cost of legal services and their status. I don’t think their offense should be taken into account, rather I think we should make changes to benefit people who currently can’t afford legal services.

I also don’t personally think there is any shame in spending your life on something that becomes an anachronism, so I don’t think much of the offense taking at new technology is warranted. Once upon a time, 90-something% of people were farmers, after all...
This backdoor would be the equivalent of a combined outlook and a .net app being compromised.

It might be hard to imagine the scope that notes encompassed in its day... it simultaneously provide mobile, offline first apps with usable data replication.. among a few features that might be surprising:

Notes had a few more unique features that modern devs might cringe to hear isn’t all that new:

- Notes provided early Nosql/relational data. Everything was a document and have fun stitching it all together in views. The NotesSQL layer would add an ODBC based layer to simulate relational dbs.

- When Lotus added Domino to Notes, it was among the first that could deliver the same Lotus Notes code to a web application. Early write once, deploy anywhere (woda). Existing apps that only ran inside Notes now worked in a web browser.

All this.. for a piece of software that was originally an email server and built workflow around it. all compromised.

Linking libc dynamically is essentially free. Every program on the system runs it, so almost all its code and clean data pages are already in memory.

As for static libc: please don't do this. A static libc, from a compatibility POV, is just as bad as embedding random SYSENTER instructions in program text. It makes the system much more brittle than it would otherwise be. I understand the desire to package a whole program into a single blob that works on every system, but we should support this use case with strong compatibility guarantees for libc, not with making SYSENTER the permanent support boundary!

When I am god emperor of mankind, on my first day, I will outlaw both static linking of libc and non-PIE main executables.
The entire idea is that vaping replaces the cigarette and most of the harmful substances in the tobacco. Cigarettes don't provide a kick because it's full of the shit that makes your lungs go black. It's the nicotine. And while nicotine is no saint, it's not the main culprit of the health problems smokers face.

Remove cigs, replace them with vapes. Presumably the effect is the same, but the vapers live slightly longer than they would've if they were smokers.

Thanks for creating this nezaj! Would you happen to have a similar guide set up for EM's and upwards? I feel it would be valuable and insightful given that there aren't as many guides for EM job searches (yet).
I view humans in a universe like a computer program that brute-forces to find a better solution. You can have some people do everything right and nothing ever works out for them. While you can have the opposite happen. The anomalies/survivorship bias gets the most media attention and keeps the rat race going. Sometimes this makes me think the universe is just the outcome of brute-forcing as well.
Clockify is definitely a good solution, I have a larger project for group time tracking that I'm working on called Timestrap https://github.com/overshard/timestrap/ too.

The point of Timelite is to not compete with things like this but to be a lightweight quick time tracking solution. It in no way is a Clockify replacement, and if your entire company and development process goes through Clockify then Timelite may be a useless tool for you.

There are terrible families out there. Just because it’s family doesn’t mean you have to suffer permanently. Some people have kids for the sake of having them, not caring about their well-being at all. In other words, being a parent doesn’t make you a good parent or person.

I get your point though. Family should be first (IMHO) and even major disagreements shouldn’t be met with ghosting. Sometimes it’s just unbearable, and it’s the only choice unfortunately.

It's the methods being used to select, populate, label, and validate the training set that are the problem.

Basically, your team is composed of white dudes who don't see the problem with a ML training set consisting largely of pictures of white dudes.

To prevent this they'd have needed to A) Employ a black person, and B) Listen to said employee's feedback, in order to recognize the problem.

Edit: Also worth pointing out, just using a representative population sampling would still show racial bias, essentially weighting accuracy with respect to population percent. You'd probably need to have equal samplings of pictures of people from all races/genders/disabilities if you wanted equal accuracy across the board. That also includes picture quality and range of picture quality. Doubling up images, or using corporate headshot white dudes and grainy selfie People of Color could still cause issues.

Same logic applies to labelling. That minimum wage contracting firm used to decide who's who in the photos may exhibit racial bias, by virtue of the fact that most people do. If their accuracy in labelling is racially biased then so too will the algorithms that it's based on.

In short: Racist garbage in, racist garbage out.

Jq allows you to fully transform a json structure. Batteries included. Similar to awk/sed etc you can even write your jq code in a separate file, and point jq to it.
Only tangentially related, but if you're interested in the theremin there's OpenTheremin http://www.gaudi.ch/OpenTheremin/index.php, which is fairly fun to play around and make spooky noises with. Turns out actually playing music takes way more coordination than I have though.
Content has a cost; I don’t apologize for maximizing the return of that investment.

I’m personally not offended by exit intent pop ups. They are an expected part of the browsing experience. I don’t think of them like the pop ups (or pop unders!) if the early 90s. An exit intent is limited to the window displayed.

That said, I do strongly believe in respecting user preference. If a person clicks the “no thanks” button I do cookie that preference and suppress additional exit intents. And I have problems with how some companies hijack the back button on mobile to show exit intent style content.

But I disagree with the sentiment that surfacing an offer to a user is hostile.
I also tend to use Booking.com more often than not. I don't like the pressure tactics but in the end all I'm doing is looking at the price, the location map, the amenities, and the reviews. The UI lets me do all that easily so I can often find a great place without much trouble.
That's a great point. Leverage --query for good justice.

Unless you need some additional juice, where jq supports actually transforming the return.

Quite arguably a heavier tool, e.g. a boto3 script becomes appropriate where --query falls short.

But options are a great thing to have.
All studies are flawedin some way? That's a reasonable theory. But self-reported data is a clasic red flag. That doesn't mean we dismiss the study. But we should be highly supect until it's duplicted.
the more apt comparison is Amazon as a mall for that, I'd say.

each store has its own suppliers like how each third party seller has their own suppliers, but they're selling from the same building, amazon

> Because every large social network uses Hadoop to solve the type of problems you were describing.

Hadoop is not used for serving real-time requests (user-facing page loads) in any social network that I am aware of.

You may be misunderstanding my comments. I'm describing use of the blob column type to store serialized data for unindexed fields. For example, metadata describing a particular user or piece of content. Let's say there are 100 possible fields/properties/columns for each user, but the data is sparse, meaning many of these fields are null/zero/default for each row. Rather than having 100 "real" columns mostly storing NULLs, social networks tend to serialize all these together (omitting the ones with empty values) into a single blob column, ideally using a strategy that maps the field names to a more compact numeric format, and storing this in a binary format (conceptually similar to BSON).

This has nothing to do with "blob storage" meaning images/audio/video.

This has nothing to do with Hadoop. Social networks / UGC sites don't use Hadoop for "blob storage" either, btw.

This has nothing to do with multi-master setups, which are generally avoided by social networks due to risks of split brain and other inconsistency problems completely tangential to this topic.

This has nothing to do with foreign key constraints or check constraints, which are implemented entirely at the application level in a sharded social network, again for reasons completely tangential to this topic.

My original comment in this subthread was in response to a claim that using blobs for unindexed fields is "very very weird". I feel that claim is incorrect because it is a common approach, used e.g. by Facebook, Pinterest, and Tumblr (among others). I think you may have misread or misunderstood this subthread entirely.
Let's not pretend this is a matter of how Apple "couldn't be bothered". Everything like this is an affirmative choice. All such choices (or their alternatives, like what is being asked for here) have both costs and benefits.
UnDraw has become hugely popular within the design community. If you are able to recognize the style then you will start seeing the illustrations all over the internet. Thumbs up to the makers.

Much About John Beasley Greene Is in Doubt. Not His Talent
This is basically my biggest critique of PG and various other YC leaders. Many of the conclusions, while likely be probably being more "right" than "wrong" in virtue, are derived from intuition and observations, not evidence based. It's even more ironic, given how much emphasis the firm places on evidence based thinking of its portfolio founders versus anecdotally thinking.

Great example:

"One quality that’s a really bad indication is a CEO with a strong foreign accent"[0]

The danger is that I think pg has been "right" about so many things that every time he pontificates about something it's treated as dogma. So when he's "wrong", it'll be ignored. Impressionable people (which likely fits the characteristic of many young tech entrepreneurs) will therefore be lead astray.
