You can eat like a pig and perform de facto caloric restriction if you work out hard enough. No need to subscribe to whatever diet religion is in vogue on instagram; just burn more calories than you take in and you will loose weight. It's a basic physics equation.

Not really there are lots and lots of academics going from short term contract to short term contract.
One could argue, easily, that the real numbers are not, in fact, "real," either, that they are rather an abstraction needed to make any measures "commensurable." As far as the magnitude goes, for example, there may be physical limits on how small things can be. (By the same token, even large positive integers can easily be seen as unreal, if you consider a number that is greater than the total count of things in the universe.)
> You literally cannot prove this fact from the Peano axioms because Peano arithmetic operates on natural numbers, not integers.

Sure you can. With definitions! Define integers from natural numbers. Define rationals from integers. And so on. And so on.

> The number -2 is an entity that exists by itself regardless of whether you've defined an additive inverse.

I see a serious misunderstanding of this topic. Please read upon the field axioms and ring axioms if you haven't so already. Then please check https://math.stackexchange.com/a/878844 which is arguably more rigorous than this post. But the essence is the same. This is more rigorous because the subtraction operator is not used anywhere. Only addition, multiplication and additive inverses have been used. Like another commenter said, if you just replace subtraction with addition with an additive inverse in the OP's post, things fall in place.
It's really interesting if you compare it to Epic's entry into the game selling business. What they did was:

1. Appeal to developers by making exclusivity deals with them (e.g: we give you a bag of money upfront if you only sell your game via our store for a year) which is really beneficial for developers as the game business is quite risky. The developer gets guaranteed cash and Epic gets everyone who would buy that game on their platform (minus the people who are outraged by the exclusivity deal)

2. Appeal to the customers by giving away free games every week. Epic pays developers for you, so you get a free game while the developer also gets paid. Epic wants you to have a library on their platform so you keep coming back, and because you need to visit the store to claim the free games they literally train their customers to use the store, from there it's a small step to convert them to paying customers with good deals.

It's absolutely baffling to me Google didn't do anything like this, they have literally more money then they could spend, yet they didn't do anything to get people to actually use their service. Compare it to the Gmail or Chrome launch suddenly there was this 'free' product you could jump onto, it was technologically superior and exciting and it came out of nowhere. Imagine if they did that with Stadia, just suddenly release it without fanfare, all your favorite games are on there and you can play X hours a week for free or something like that.

When I was in college, I had a roomate who interned at Frito Lay. We got a lot of "beta" samples of new stacks that weren't public - the amount of engineering that goes into making snacks on ultra high volume scale is insane. I tested a bunch of snacks and provided feedback - which goes back into the engineering iteration loop before the snack is perfected, optimized for cost and manufacturability. It was indeed fascinating. There are hundreds of parameters to optimize - for e.g. the shape of the chip can affect how much oil it can retain affecting cost, taste, nutrition, etc.

I cringed when I read it. At the same time, you can have a meaningful p value from a single observation. If you were assuming novel spread from China and a random selection of virus genotype, you'd expect a coincidence like this to happen about 3% of the time if the null hypothesis held. So it's not completely bullshit.

Big caveat is-- inferring this from a single genetic difference with 59 reference sequences taken at different times is dubious. That 3% number could be drastically different in reality.

Still-- cryptic spread from the earlier case is probably the most reasonable explanation for what we've seen.

I'm not sure what their motivation to lie is here. Also there is the observable number of exported cases from China which seems to have fallen in correlation with their reported successes.

Exactly this. You want one thread pool of size ~= core count, then you want to have a completely different "max number of IO jobs" type deal that doesn't use threads at all.

C# async/await is pretty good for this (IO operations do not count towards CPU task count).
Miracast never worked very well, in my experience.

I don’t know where the failing was, but it really only worked reliably when the compute device and TV were from the same manufacturer. Cross-vendor compatibility was hit or miss.

(It also didn’t help that different vendors used their own proprietary name for their Miracast feature - most users have no clue what Miracast is.)

Not to contradict anything you wrote (I agree with it all) but thought I’d add a little nuance:

> Banks gradually became not-so-great sources for small business lending in the post WW2 era; essentially as bank lending fully switched from being personal, with some influence for community relationships and reputation, to being almost strictly based on formula.

This formulaic shift helped people who might not fit the “community” model, e.g. black people in towns where all the bankers were white (which was all town post WWII).
From the journal article:

"GHM’s solution to regulate a yellow change interval first appeared in the 1965 ITE Traffic Engineering Handbook, and it
has become known as the kinematic equation. However, GHM’s solution is limited to vehicles traveling through level intersections at constant velocity, which does not include vehicle deceleration to execute safe turning maneuvers. This article presents a brief review covering GHM’s original solution and Mats Järlström’s extended kinematic equation which allows for vehicle deceleration and turning maneuvers."

There are diminishing returns when evaluating recursive formulas using SIMD, as the cost to gather/scatter into the vectors, duplication of computation, and transfer overhead to the GPU cost more than doing it in a single core with vector instructions.

Real-time audio processing is probably the most common case where you see huge gains in SIMD on the CPU but very minimal gains on the GPU. Other examples are certain polynomial approximations and physics simulations.

Also string manipulation, parsing, evaluating a regex. The overhead of getting to the GPU outweighs keeping it on the CPU core.
You don't reduce panic in a Florida hurricane by downplaying the wind strength until after everyone's already feeling it rattle their house. If we care about reducing panic the correct thing is not hiding information, it's having competent people in charge communicating regularly with the public about the facts and telling the public what is going to happen and what they need to do to prevent spread.
Looks like a great alternative to open semantic search.
They're gotos with restricted semantics, just like every nearly every other control flow mechanism.

The restricted semantics makes it interesting without going into "an authority said they're ok". Abstracting so that you can more easily reason about (and you can explain to others so that they can more easily reason about) the full state space something can operate in is a not terrible definition for engineering in general.
The GitHub readme/repository doesn't give a fair overview over what this project really covers. Seems really ambitions and well made, at least from a quick glance. This page gives a better overview: https://docs.alephdata.org/how-aleph-is-used

Some problems they aim to solve:

> Easy data search for both structured and unstructured information (ie. documents and databases).

> Cross-referencing between different datasets ("Who are all the politicians in my country that are mentioned in this leak?")

> Access control and data compartmentalisation, but also flexible sharing within cross-border teams.

> Continuous crawling of hundreds of public data sources as background material for research.

> Visual exploration of investigative analysis.
> Decoupling concurrently running software components via message passing avoids race conditions by design.

How am I supposed to read this? It's obviously not "message passing eliminates race conditions", so perhaps it's intended to say something like "you need to design the components to avoid race conditions."
There must be some misunderstanding. The provost doesn't take the overhead, the university does, which is a common practice.

> It's not hard to upgrade your code

People keep writing blog posts about how easy it is to migrate your code, and I just can't imagine that these people have any experience maintaining a Python2 codebase outside of toy projects or libraries.

At work I maintain a Python2 codebase that's been under development since 2016. It's huge, relies on now-deprecated Py2-only libraries that we can't realistically switch away from, full of Py2-specific syntax, and reliant on Py2's handling of Unicode strings. We scoped out what it would be like to upgrade it to Py3, and determined that we would basically need to rewrite large parts of it from scratch. This isn't an acceptable trade-off for the business in terms of development time and priorities.

Instead we are slowly breaking out the monolith's functionality into Py3 services, which is much more tightly-scoped (and more palatable for management). But realistically speaking we will be maintaining Py2 code for the foreseeable future, and I can't imagine we are the only company in this situation.

Upgrading a production codebase from Py2 to Py3 isn't easy, or even possible in some cases. And frankly, all these blog posts suggesting that migration is trivial are insulting.
I don't see a single interview with a too-hard question being that.

My concern was, if this goes into wide use, then we'll be using these specialized species to extract the non-renewable resources that they depend on from their habitats, leading to the species' demise.

The thing I would worry about here is that perhaps not all of your tasks have the same performance demands. There may be tasks related to RPC that should run as quickly as possible and tasks related to computation that could take a long time. If all of the threads in the threadpool are busy with an expensive computation there could not be left any to quickly handle RPC requests.

I personally prefer to do as much as possible just in one thread, where you can run things asynchronously with a single threaded message loop and then have a thread pool next to that for expensive computations. This also tends to reduce the number of things that need to be protected with a mutex.

That's is the fandom talking. There was no indication that Space X expected failure twice in a row.

Elon Musk presided over a failure in static pressure testing of a steel vessel. No vibrations, no dynamic loading, no fluid flow, just simply pressurizing a steel tank. No exotic materials or difficult techniques like aluminium welding were involved, just garden-variety steel, the best-understood material of all. How do you manage to fail at constructing a piece of equipment as simple as this?
In a way, sure. In math, existence means consistency, i.e. being free of logical contradiction. Often, "a proof of existence" is done by construction based on a system whose "existence" is assumed. In particular, the complex numbers are usually constructed from the reals in the form (a, b).
Apple never adopted it, which meant that you had Windows + Android able to use Miracast, but iOS not; AirPlay couldn't be used by the other side of the fence.

DLNA could, in theory, be all things to all people, but like similar "all things" it's such a pain in the arse to get renderers and servers all talking to each other it never really "just works".

Of course, all of that wouldn't necessarily be a problem except that Apple and Google are deeply invested in non-compatibility.

> You cannot work backward by assuming the field axioms (which are unfortunately named because they are not axioms at all but properties) to derive the definition o the field operators.

Of course, when we say they are field axioms we mean those properties hold true for the elements of the field. If you see those properties, they talk about distributivity over the elements of the field and additive inverses of the elements also belong to the field, so the distributivity automatically applies to additive inverses too.

After that with a little algebra, "product of additive inverses of two elements is equal to the product of the two elements" comes out as a result (not a definition).

Of course, by "product" we mean whatever * represents. It is not necessarily the multiplication operator we see in numbers.
Hehehe, you said "wood".
That's a preposterous statement.

I was confused the first few times I heard companies bragging about their student-friendly "inclusive textbook" programs. I thought they were congratulating themselves for finally making textbook platforms that are inclusive of people with disabilities, [1] and that's why they were calling them "inclusive textbooks." But that's not it at all. It has nothing to do with inclusion — these are mostly-mandatory (you're supposed to be able to opt-out) programs.

And if you look at the PR release from Pearson, which is linked in the article, you can see that's it's not designed to be good for students, but rather for the publishers' bottom-line:

> Our digital first model lowers prices for students and, over time, increases our revenues.

1: digital textbooks are infamous for having very few, if any, accessibility features. Some of the largest platforms have used image-based PDFs, which are terrible for people with low vision, or anyone who wants to read their textbook on their phone.

I don't think it's true. Message passing definitely doesn't eliminate race conditions or deadlocks. Although, it's much easier to design code that has fewer race conditions.

It's possible that they mean "it avoids data races by design".
> In the real number field, additive inverse of a positive real number is indeed the negative of that number. The negative of that number is also obtained by the application of unary negation operator on the positive number.

This is a fact that follows from the definition of +. But + needs to be defined before you can start making assumptions about what the additive inverse is. The set over which the field is defined (Z or R) already contains -3, -2 etc. and -3 * -2 or -3 + -2 needs to be defined when you're constructing the field. It then turns out that -3 is the additive inverse of 3. You can't use this when arguing about the definition of why applying * on negative 2 and negative 3 gives you the result positive 6. Because you need to define * over all members of the field before you construct a field in the first place.
