I think it's more important to talk about air travel. Not only it's bad for the planet, it essentially turns every new flu virus to a pandemic. School holidays, travel, normal holidays/recess, remote work could and should be used for public health purposes. [Edit: what i'm saying is there should be motives to limit air travel during flu season, and maybe schools could align holidays / recess with flu season]

As for pharma, well they 've contributed to the establishment of the current model according to which their FDA-approved monopolies are their moneymakers, everything else is a loss. The solution is to deregulate both ways, shorten or partially abolish drug patents
You can tell that to the Biomaterial Processing Courts when they queue you up for utilization for the betterment of humanity. But for now I don't think anybody asks you to personally care about anything, much less do anything.

Or would you like to ask somebody else to work on things you do care about?

Surely they could have done that anyway, since SC implements the CK API. Or they could have disabled the CK backend for all release builds.

WeLivv | Senior Software Engineer (React / Search Experience) | NYC | ONSITE or REMOTE | https://welivv.com

WeLivv is a NYC based startup with a home furnishing search and discovery platform who is being used by 10,000+ interior designers and architect firms and most of the top brands in the home decor space. We’re a fully remote TypeScript and Golang shop with our machine learning stack in Python and ElasticSearch powering the platform that runs on Google Cloud.

We are interested in understanding the visual taste and style of our users and then recommending them home furnishing imagery that bring products and real context of decor to the front. So strategies around building large scale computer vision based data intensive systems are really exciting for us.

WeLivv is dedicated to having a quality work environment for everyone and we are fully remote! On our engineering team we value collaboration over competition, respect work-life balance and solve problems without blaming people.

We have a “no assholes” policy.

We recently closed our funding round and we’re a small group with multiple startup experiences as both founders and early engineers. We believe that someone who is truly a senior software engineer can come from almost any background and pick up a new set of tech in a reasonable amount of time which is why we don’t list much about our tech stack in our job description.

We are looking for an awesome senior software engineer to round out our core engineering team for this year.

If you’ve made it this far and you’re still interested, please apply by emailing our Chief Technology Officer at: s at welivv.com.

Things to include:

* Your background

* What projects you are interested in working on

* A link to your GitHub profile or any place you have publicly available code

* Anything else you would like us to know

(A resume is helpful but not necessary)

Not necessarily.

If you fail, just get a job, save up more money, then try again.

The more you fail, the more you learn, the greater the likelihood of success the next time around.

Seems like the country has a new name, "oil-producer Norway".

Look, oil production is going to be around for a long, long time. Even when 99% of new vehicles are EV and 99% of power production is renewable, we will still be pumping and refining oil. There are use cases where oil-based products will be necessary basically forever, even after global warming has been neutralized. This doesn't mean Norway doesn't care about the environment.

Maybe I just don't use cool SPA, but I just never noticed the speed of chrome or firefox's lag that is mentioned every now and then.

I recently gave chrome a try since since it was already installed on my work laptop, but I didn't noticed any difference aside that I was missing my addons, which actually is not that great for chrome as my work laptop is fancier with more potent hardware than my personal one (t490 vs x230).

I'm dreaming, but it would be nice to see some numbers.

What would Union Square's performance have been if they just invested a max of once in each company? Twice? Instead of this N times strategy? I wonder the same about YC.

I think the strategy he's talk about is simply called Dollar Cost Averaging (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollar_cost_averaging) in the public markets. I do it. It works and because there's data available it's easy to see.

I haven't seen anyone put out numbers yet on how important it is in angel/seed/VC investing.

My back of the envelope guess is that unless you follow this strategy (doubling down on your winners 3-5 times before liquidity) it's not worth it to do early stage investing, but I'm not sure. Would love to see some data.

Edit: Actually, looking up DCA its meaning is a bit more specific than I realized and not quite a strategy that I follow. I meant more about doubling down on your (expected) winners particularly when their price falls irrationally. Half-baked analogy.
Cortx | Machine Learning Engineer (Deep Learning) | Baltimore, Maryland | Onsite, Full-time

Cortx is a profitable, stable, and growing artificial intelligence startup that is building a tool that automatically writes content about any subject with the same level of quality, factual accuracy, and usefulness as a human.

You would be at the intersection of research and production code - taking our research roadmap and helping make it a reality.

This will involve training new models and making improvements to existing ones. You will constantly be ingesting research papers, finding and implementing ways to take nascent research concepts, and writing production code to apply it to our goals. You will be analyzing where our current methods are falling short and devising and implementing ways to improve and iterate.

You will be working directly with our Founder/CEO, who is leading the AI team, both as a manager and an individual contributor.

We sponsor all visas (including H1B and Green Card), and we pay market rates for SF/NYC despite being located in an area with a significantly cheaper cost of living.

We are currently using TensorFlow for the vast majority of our AI work.

Jung was famously sceptical of psychedelics, telling people to "beware of unearned knowledge". I think he might have a point, especially considering how much human culture dating back to our earliest records apparently warns of the same thing. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, Pandora's Box etc, the idea crops up everywhere.

I certainly don't think we should have the destructive, Puritan regime of prohibition in place (it was pretty much an excuse to arrest members of the left-wing counterculture in the 1960s rather than any genuine public health concern), but completely heading in the other direction isn't a good idea either. The cultures that have used psychedelics for millenia have lots of cultural/spiritual practices around them to make them safer, just taking a pill and thinking you're ready to meet God without any sort of preparation is a recipe for going spectacularly mad.

Mars does have some benefits as the main living space over a space station at least. Gravity is gratis for one which really helps with long term health and we don't have to completely redesign our current technology to work if there's gravity where we will in space. And yes the resources for Earth are better found in the asteroid belt but it would probably be easier to mine and extract on Mars again because of gravity and locality. [-1] The atmosphere, thin as it is, is still a convenient source for carbon and oxygen to support the life support cycle and could maybe be a source of nitrogen for growing plants. In those ways it's maybe an easier first long term settlement than space or the moon ignoring the cost of bringing everything there and resupply missions. [0]

I think it may be more likely to happen somewhere with gravity just given how much development still needs to be done to extract materials out of asteroids. There's a lot to work through in being able to refine stuff like metals in micro gravity that hasn't even started yet.

If history is any judge though we'll go to Mars long before it's really viable simply because it's there. Hopefully not too many people get caught up in it.

[0] Unless it's turns out to be viable to bake similar resources out of lunar regolith. I haven't read deeply enough to see if that's just SciFi or a viable source of the basic elementals needed to support a settlement.

[-1] edit: To clarify here I mean on Mars for consumption on Mars of course. Though Mar's much thinner atmosphere would also make some more exotic launch technologies potentially viable. eg: a rail/coil gun launch to a skyhook maybe given the much lower atmospheric drag it would experience.
