It could also just be a weapons platform. A lot of the space based scenarios end up denying capabilities for both sides (fine for the attacker if there is asymmetry in capabilities, but not so much here). But if it can attach to the target and push it out of orbit and into the atmosphere without a debris cloud?
Couldn't they make a table that contains a list of all the old objects by SHA1 hash, for for each contains the new SHA256 hash of that object, and then commit this table in the repository?
Ask HN: Resources for learning about map rendering?
Anyone have a great book or link that talks about the internals of modern maps?

I'm currently a full stack dev with an interest in moving towards a position more focused on map rending / working with maps, but I'm having trouble finding resources for learning the skills I would need for such a position.
I'll let the article (which we are discussing here) speak for itself (my highlighting though):

> accounts of lift exist on two separate levels of abstraction: the technical and the nontechnical. [... The former] exists as a strictly mathematical theory, a realm in which the analysis medium consists of equations, symbols, computer simulations and numbers. There is little, if any, serious disagreement as to what the appropriate equations or their solutions are.
Preferably. If you want to create a more trustworthy rapport with your audience so they don't feel manipulated.

Sneaky disclosures kill any interest I have in a product/company.
I've never shown a use of "implicit" to an experienced developer unfamiliar with Scala and seen them get excited about the language.

The best case scenario is that they aren't instantly horrified / confused / repulsed.

I would say: they buy the product they trust the most to fulfill their needs (as they see them).

Barring actual corruption, oftentimes ability to eventually get it done is more important to the buyer than features.
Although, I think programming languages could be designed to be even more friendly for our visual/spatial brain. I don't think text-files are optimal.

The trend has been to blur the lines between roles to get people that are just good enough at all the things to make it work. Hence back-end, front-end -> full stack and DevOps and DevSecOps roles (those weren't meant to be roles)

I don't know if it's a cost-saving measure, business optimization, or just straight ego.
I can think of a hundreds reasons why they do this. It doesn't make it right in any of those.
If you won't hire anyone using vim, you might not want to hire anyone using VS Code, I would say since most of "modern vim" users share LSP usage.

But better yet, if you will hire people based on their tools and not their skills, you might want to stay away from that department.
This is understandeable: Both AI and corporations are psychopaths - they have no emotions to get in the way of rational thinking, with ultimate goal of maximizing their personal gain.

Is this at the "Chrome" level, or baked in at the "Chromuim" level? And therefore also an issue for Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, new-Edge, and anything else jumping on the browser engine monoculture?
> they are primarily based on an ideological "Progressive" position

Doubtful, considering many members of the moderate Democratic establishment were involved or associated with these companies, including former advisers and strategists of the Clinton campaign, which was definitely not progressive. Buttigieg, a moderate, and his campaign have also worked with these companies. So I think it’s misleading to call them “progressive”; it would be more accurate to say “moderate” or “establishment”.

Your argument establishes that a free lunch is desirable, not that a free lunch is feasible.

There is a very good essay I came across relating a discussion between a physicist and an economist on the question of neverending economic growth: https://dothemath.ucsd.edu/2012/04/economist-meets-physicist...

It's worth reading in its entirety regardless of which side one stands on.

A Deep Dive into Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) on Recommender System
No worries, that's a natural reaction!

> In practice it's unlikely that you find yourself in a situation where you can write code in a high-level language that runs considerably faster than what you could realistically write in C.

I do way more C++ (in fact, I don't do pure C at all), and aliasing has bitten me and my code performance more often than I'd like. While there are workarounds, I'd probably consider spending time and effort on them as rather unrealistic in a sense. So it surely doesn't contradict my world model if a language with a stricter type system (Haskell? Rust? ATS anyone?) achieves better results on at least some of the tasks with less effort and less dependence on implementation details.

Although ironically I'm going to write something low-level for the Haskell bytestrings library today evening, in C with intrinsics (so almost assembly modulo stuff like register allocation).
The passage you quoted doesn't call for anything closely resembling YouTube's current system. All it says is that YouTube (where YouTube is standing in for any provider) has to be open to banning repeat infringers, and can't claim DMCA protections if it tries to stop content holders from identifying their copyrighted works through software that is the product of "an open, fair, voluntary, multi-industry standards process."

In the context where the DMCA was written, it seems most likely that they were thinking of, say, Napster banning known copyright enforcement agencies in order to prevent them from scanning its network.
Pretty much nothing most of the time.

There are optical isomers and such that could make a difference. But even the brand names may change this up from time to time.

Then there's the whole 99% pure thing, but that 1% could be made up of highly carcinogenic nitrosamines in the microgram doses that aren't as closely tracked as they should be. But buying brand may not protect you from this, or could be worse.

This is why I have a cold shower every morning.
I also have anxiety. The way you deal with it is to talk with strangers. Start by expressing yourself more with the people you are already comfortable with. Something you might normally not share. Then start with chit chat with people who are less familiar. You will be chatting comfortably with people you don't know in no time. Isolating yourself is the wrong way and will lead you to dark places. I know. I'm better. It's scary, uncomfortable and totally worth it.
Growth doesn't necessarily mean money-wise. And GDP is generally tweaked to make inflation disappear.

IMO, the 28 and follow ons lost a lot of the focus of the earlier (more 'primitive') devices. They were more cumbersome to use, and whatever marginal improvement they offered in functionality didn't matter because everybody started to use PC's, laptops and the like.

Anything that promise k8s the easy way is a click-bait, I'm a ML researcher and was promised that KubeFlow will help me deploy my models from my notebook with the infrastructure I needed...well it happens to be that we didn't have Kubernetes. I started with KubeFlow then K8s and then I got lost in all the terminology, which became a full time job, not as ML researcher but as DevOps. K8s is powerful but for my use case is a non-starter: maintain all the components+infra and don't talk about day 2 operations because I would have no idea where to start if something fails. I will definitely prefer Sagemaker or Cloud ML engine, and if get the budget maybe hire a k8s expert to handle that

Git does have an commit-related object called a note that you can attach as a separate object. [1]

Presumably the proposed "hash translation store" could use an approach similar to notes, and include the hash translations as objects in the git database (hopefully in a way that could be signed by a tag).

I see this show up in the broader Teal movement, definitely, but not really in Holacracy. The reliance on process rather than "Teal principles" holds space for people who don't demand it, and holds those alphas to the process as well.
Well working is a qualifier that you added, not the author. Maybe he's only interested in things that explore innovative ideas rather than a functional product.
As someone working on something that i think is somehow related to both Sandstorm and Solid(at least in some of the key goals), i've turned into a distinct path.

The most reasonable thing to do, of course is something like Sandstorm did. You get the technological 'status quo' of the web and mix it into a self-sustained, autonomical node.

I think that when you need to have this level of autonomy, the design meant for the web doesnt solve this very well.

This is the reason why i think both Sandstorm and Solid didnt 'hit the nail' yet, because we need a couple more "iterations" to solve this in a more satisfying way, and it goes deep down into the architectural choices.

Having said that i think Sandstorm, Solid, DAT and IPFS have the right mindset, and the sort of meditation that are pointing us to a future.

The real danger here, is that the web on its own will get trapped by the mobile walled gardens of both Apple and Android were you dont have any choice of distribution or reach without saying yes to a digital overlord that can terminate your channel within the digital realm over any bogus reason presented.

And unfortunatelly our legislators are still not prepared to deal with our current digital citizenship and to make the proper stand on our civil rights.

Without a proper solution, we are heading to a dystopic digital feudalism, and this is one of the reasons why im also working hard to launch something that will at least try to make this dark looking future not so unavoidable.

(And thats why i have a utter respect for projects like Sandstorm and Solid)

I repeat; The web stands no change and will become a "channel" within a bigger internet ecosystem, and a symptom of this is the web being embedded as a app platform for mobile and in the near future desktop apps.

The web has a great future as a application platform, but this free, utopian world where we have a more free and descentralized way to share information is losing a lot of ground, and if we dont keep some great values the web stand for in new tech incarnations, we stand no chance to keep all this.
Ha! I went to college my freshman year at University of Puget Sound, and my philosophy professor who taught our class "Posthuman Future" took us on a tour of that very lab at UW. It's been many years, but I still think back on that experience as a revelation.
It can be explained, though. I took aerodynamics courses over a decade ago, and they had a decent explanation which covered all of the points brought up in the article, incorporating both Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third principle.

The big challenge seems to be making it explainable to someone with no domain knowledge.
Research needs money.

Big money tends to go towards what generates great returns.

Thus a lot of research is devoted to dull tasks that bring business value.

No need to involve AI, or research for that matter.
Right, OP totally should have included the interview question requirements as a commented block at the top of index.html instead of separating it out. It's way too complex as is.

And definitely, .gitignore is well known to be responsible for the "complexity of web development." Maybe we should include .gitignore in index.html too?

I don't trust any of the major tech companies to do a good job with this product. How long until your weather app needs access to that always on camera in your glasses?

Practically I also can't imagine how they'll solve weight/battery/networking issues with the device particularly in athletic settings where you're literally putting the device through a constant earthquake.

Maybe we should stop wishing for some ridiculous convenience layer to be added to our lives and just look around during our runs like we've done for thousands of years.
Even in books, where the limitations of costumes and sets are less relevant, most aliens are at least somewhat humanish. Though there are certainly some more exotic ones like the pattern jugglers, First Person Singular, or the Prime.

> The only thing generics providers need to do is establish a very loose bioequivalency through self-tested experiments (the FDA doesn't conduct the experiments or oversees them, only reviews the results and methodology)

Though buying brand may not protect you from this. Brand name companies change up plants, processes, API suppliers, etc. without notifying end-users. They just do the same kind of testing a generic supplier may.

They have the same pressures to reduce cost as much as a generic manufacturer does.
I am a bit hesitant to engage with this comment. I am not sure whether it comes a lack of understanding of what Nationalism actually means, in which case education will consist of reading history, or wether you understand what it means and think it is appropriate to turn a secular country into a Hindu nation and disenfranchise hundreds of millions of non Hindus.

You're not - there isn't one. "To be nice" isn't a "point" under capitalism, there's less profit to be had with that and is hard to represent on a balance sheet. Thing is, CAH frequently doesn't follow the "point" of capitalism. One year they bought a pointless hole - ie, bought some land, rented a digger, and paid a worker to dig a hole. Another year they took the proceeds from a sale, and just gave the money away.[https://cardsagainsthumanityredistributesyourwealth.com/] Or bought an island to give away.

There is arguably value derived for CAH via these stunts, in the form of marketing and branding and such but it's less direct. In this case, CAH is supporting fellow local artist group Clickhole. Both groups are based in chicago and have know each other of years through the local comedy scene. By buying the site and giving it to the employees - arguably those that would know the best how to run it, CAH is buying it's continued existence with a very hands-off approach. The opposite of helicopter parenting, as it were.

I would actually prefer to not have any GNSS (GPS) receiver in the smart glasses in order to keep the weight down and battery life up. GNSS receiver can still be in a wrist device and just use the smart glasses as a display linked via ANT+.

GNSS accuracy is poor in forests, canyons, and dense urban environments due to line-of-sight obstructions and multipath reflections. The latest Navstar Block III satellites should improve that a little, but any real solution would require deploying additional satellites in geosynchronous orbit like the Japanese QZSS.
Love Jeff’s stuff, there’s a reason he has such a following. His deep dives into pelvic tilts and shoulder issues have been a huge help to me also.
We teach AI empathy by programming it with the heurestics of care--optimizing for human well-being instead of profit. A difficult thing to achieve when the entities paying for the design of AIs are themselves driven by the profit motive, and for-profit AIs are self-perpetuating.

Shadow, Inc.? Really? Sounds like a Bond villan's organization, what a strange name, especially with 'mysterious' put before it.
He could be even more stupid to hire a company named Shadow Inc, that has ties to the DNC that could make him look complicit in any rigging should it happen. Was it smart? Definitely not. So stupid for one thing or another, still means stupid right?
I'm not Kick, but while you're correct that "associated with" would've been better for clarity, no reasonable person would assume that "inversely tied" describes a contractually mandated drop in performance for an increase in pay (my other comment here links to dictionary.com and thesaurus.com, both good references for this discussion). Couple that with the generally accepted usage of 'tied' and the usage by Kick was correct, if perhaps ambiguous to a narrow population.
This is specifically on Chrome, it seems.
Let's pretend you make a magical cow that you can get from birth to slaughter in 1 year and has a normal food intake and normal average slaughter weight and magically grinds up into a uniform 70% lean meat / 30% fat.

9,125 pounds of dry feed and 7,300 of drinking water nets you 530lbs of meat.

We're going to stick with corn since it is a better cow-day yield per acre than oats.

- 9,125lbs of corn = more than 16 million kcals.

- 530lbs of 70/30 beef = 798,180 kcals.

That's 20x more calories if you fed the corn to humans than if you process it through a cow's stomach with a magic cow that doesn't exist. In reality it's more 30-40x. A single cow's annual intake can feed more than 20 humans a 2000 kcal diet for a year. If we switched the farmland feeding cows alone over to growing for humans, you could feed 30 billion people if you stick with corn.

Obviously humans can't surive on corn alone, realistically though you could feed 10-20 billion people with that same farmland, use less water, have far less environmental pollution, have less methane emissions, need far less refrigeration, drastically reduce the amount of antibiotics being used, improve soil quality, increase local pollinator populations by not turning square mile after square mile after square mile into the same crop, etc.

The water cattle drink is something like 16.58 million Olympic swimming pools annually, or 41.45 cubic kilometers of water.

Meat really is a luxury and needs to be treated as such.

> I just don't like the thinly veiled "fuck the average people, they shouldn't eat meat while I and my buddies will continue to do so thanks to our lavish income".

I made no such claim. I removed animal products from 95% of my meals last year. It isn't sustainable and it's creating all sorts of issues for the environment (and people).

Find and run the numbers yourself. Meat has to become a luxury.

Google ran one internally for some time maybe 10 years ago. (Maybe still does, for all I know.) IIRC it was for points, maybe transferable for massage credits or something, so no huge economic incentive. I have no idea if it was in any way effective, actionable, or even seen by executives with decision making power. Based on the quantity of discussion on the mailing list I suspect it was mostly used by a pretty small set of people, so I'd have some doubts about its predictive power.

I find the article perfectly reasonable. We can model flight quite well, and predict the behaviour of wings quite well, yet it is hard to give an accurate account of it at a layman's level.

The article goes on to discuss two accounts that have been given historically, and outlines why they are insufficient. A plane flying upside down is a perfectly fine refutation to the naive Bernoulli "the wing is curved on the upside" explanation.

Which parts do you have a problem with?

I should have been more clear: those buttons are still "visible" in that they have a haptic interface. I have a headphone with "tap to play/pause, swipe to change songs or volume" - it's impossible to know without reading the manual or triggering one of these actions by accident. Which incidentally also happens a lot.

That's bad interface design IMO. I guess the headphones look "cleaner" but it's really annoying in practice and not worth it.
