It _is_ bad on macOS. It used to be one of the better platforms to stream video content to others, but now it just lacks in many areas compared to most of its competitors.

The worst bug I had was it essentially started muting random people on a call, but only for me. I could see their mouth moving, and thought it was a problem their side but turns out everyone else could hear them apart from me. I could hear everyone else too apart from them.

About 40-50% of the time I guess. And presumably another so many percent of projects end up completed long before the deadline instead.

Either way, the reasons are as follows:

1. The timeframe provided for the project has no correlation to reality, and either under or overestimates the time needed.

2. The client/customer needs to do something... then puts it off a few days/weeks/months.

3. Feature/scope creep kicks in.

That's just the work related ones. Personal projects get sidetracked all the time.

You are correct. It is possible to construct a linear neural network, where an algebraic function could be extracted, but in practice, almost all networks use non-linear activation functions.

In the case of a linear network, the function would be a dot product between the input and the weights:
𝑥1𝑤1+𝑥2𝑤2+𝑥3𝑤3 ... for all inputs (xi) and weights (wi)

Yup, my voicemail box is constantly full of spam messages to the point where, my voicemail's regularly full, I couldn't be bothered to listen to any of them any more and it's too much effort to clean it out. My last carrier used to send a text if I got a voicemail. If I got a text saying I got a voicemail from someone I knew, I'd call back, if it was a random number, I'd just delete the text.

There is a difference between being a monopoly and monopolist behaviour. One has successfully become the only one standing, one is seeking to shut out competition by one method or another. At least to my understanding.
I guess I'll be the one to go against the grain here: I might have received 2-3 spam calls in the last year, here in the US. This implies that most spam callers aren't simply dialing random numbers, they're getting lists from somewhere, and by luck or by care my number hasn't ended up on their lists.

No relation whatsoever.
About a year ago I changed my voicemail to say "Sorry I missed your call. I don't listen to voicemails, please send me a message by SMS instead."

I couldn't recommend doing so more. Text is so much easier, even if you have voicemail transcription.
We talk about privacy as an absolute but privacy from whom? I'm mostly concerned about the government getting and abusing my data and if I use iCloud backups all my data is right there for them to take. With Google's activity controls I feel like I have more control over what they're storing.

That said I do wish there was a third option besides Apple and Google.

Not more inefficient than everyone driving their single occupancy car to grocery store and buy stuff, as things worked before the pandemic.

They wouldn’t be better than the regular grocery delivery truck, but they have spare capacity when the demand for grocery deliveries has probably skyrocketed.

I wouldn’t think there are enough refrigerated trucks available in the world for grocery stores to all scale their delivery fleets rapidly at the same time.
If it didn't stop Walmart, it seems unlikely it'll stop Amazon.
I disagree, as noted elsewhere in this thread. Pandemic effects should be consider society-wide. Specific causal and medical or other mechanisms will differ, but it's the net effect which matters.
An app can be expensive not because is a luxury software but because the complexity and the market size, this determines the development cost and the expected revenues per copy.
I mean stranger things have happened, but it seems highly unlike this could be effective.
I would say that using a website's own internal search is fair game, but good luck trying to find, for example, the link to a blog you forgot the name to. You can try Wikipedia, Youtube, StackOverflow, WaPo's article, but I doubt you'll ever make your way to that blog without the URL to it.
Not only that, but a lot of food in US grocery stores comes from other countries. Many of these other countries are likely to get hit very hard by the pandemic, and most probably won't be responding as effectively as South Korea, so expect to see long-term shortages of foreign food.
> charitable behavior is heavily driven by visibility (hardly any donations are anonymous)

That doesn't bear out with what I see. Looking at a dataset of 2.8 million donations through our site, roughly 20% are anonymous. That's not the majority, but it's much more than "hardly any."
Some single-stream systems have stopped taking glass. Paper/cardboard seems to be cost-effective so there isn't a real pressure to remove that. If anything it's one of the few things (along with metal) that the recycling systems actually get decent recovery rates from.

The reasons for removing glass in particular seem to be: 1) it's the heaviest component, so removing it decreases transportation/processing costs, 2) after China stopped accepting exported glass, there's a lack of processors who will take it, and 3) broken glass shards contaminate more valuable things in the stream, plus damage machinery.

Plastic isn't really cost-effective either and has low recovery rates, but it's at least lighter than glass and doesn't break into shards as easily, so a lot of places still take it, if only to make people feel good.

My instinct is that the model proves too much. Same way evopsych just-so stories were able to "explain" everything. Once you have a theory that purports to explain every single thing, maybe your theory is actually too vague to be useful, or you're just telling yourself stories.

For instance, while most donations aren't anonymous, I'd wager most people don't know how much their friends donate and who to. Sure, the organization knows, but unless you go out of your way to tell people that you gave $50 or $500 or $5000 to MSF last year, nobody will know. It's not an anonymous donation, but you're not signalling to anyone unless you stick a bumper sticker on your car or whatever.
This is now a feature on both iOS and Android to mute incoming calls that are not a contact. Voicemails still work fine, and with automatic transcription and all the other digital channels still open, there's no real reason to worry about anonymous calls anymore.
Thanks, this is a great list for me.
I really wish we could make custom Apple Watch faces, for instance. At least open up the API for it for developers - for example - Apple does not provide an Apple Watch face with both an analog and digital representation, and I can’t make it, beyond an app, which I’d have to constantly reopen...just us me do the things, Apple!
I quite appreciate these kinds of posts. Fun and silly, yet make you think about the way computers work outside the box.

The projection in this article is strong. This is the product of a very alien mind, to me. Intentional signaling is irritating to others, and often self-destructive. I really doubt most people's actions are driven by signaling, except in particularly mentally ill clumps of humanity.

In other words: what do you mean "we", weirdo?

I don't really understand the claim you're making here--you have to go out of your way in TypeORM to get ActiveRecord objects instead of plain JavaScript objects. The happy path is pretty firmly in data-mapper territory; as an example, for all the shade I will happily fling NestJS's way they just hand you a Repository and tell you to get on with your day.

There's also stuff like Objection.js (which works well in TypeScript), too.

I don't dislike Prisma, but the framing is really strange to me.
As far as I know Instacart shoppers are using personal cars for their deliveries. I don't believe they require refrigerated trucks.

Agreed Uber/Lyft might not be setup for groceries just yet but it seems like it'd be pretty easy to provide Kroger and Safeway with an API hook to schedule an Uber/Lyft driver for pick-up and delivery (versus setting up a store front and sync'ing up all the inventory with Kroger and Safeway like Instacart did/does).
There are multiple ways that I know of to approach this problem, but part of the experiment is to explore for yourself.

Switch to radar view in the app and it will show you the exact geographical distribution of rain in your city right now. This comes from national weather data.

If that's inaccurate then something is wrong with the government data. Or maybe Seattle rain is somehow much patchier at a finer level than government data is able to resolve?

FWIW in New York City its assessment of the next five minutes has always been literally perfect. It might say it's going to go from hard rain to nothing in two minutes... and it does, right on time.

It gets increasingly noisy as you go to 15, 30, and 60 min out, though.

This is bad advice. You will need it in almost any country when getting stopped by the police. That can happen any time. This will be more of a problem in some countries than others. If you really can't find a way to carry it without getting pick pocketed then a least carry a xeroxed copy with you.
If I'm understanding you, that's largely the point I'm making. Italy's apparent anomolously high CFR is all but certainly a measurement artefact and not a clinical actual ground truth.

If you leave and then re-apply, hiring managers will look at your past performance reviews when considering you as a candidate. If your past performance reviews were excellent, it'll be a lot easier to come back. If you left another FAANG company... it doesn't matter beyond maybe making it easier to get a phone screen.

I expect that everybody has better things to do than memorizing Leetcode problems. That's because I don't expect people to memorize problems at all. I strongly believe that candidates should be able to succeed at the question I ask despite never having seen it before in their lives.
> Instead of the best answer, what usually floats to the top is the most repeated, the most seod, the newest, the most politically correct.

This happens quite often on Hacker News. One of the fastest and easiest ways to accumulate karma is to be the first to post something like "$hated_company has always been doing $horrible_thing, they need to change", which most people agree with, every time a popular story about them shows up. (Thankfully, usually only a couple of these appear in most discussions, and usually people don't spam this.)

Hacker News can be great for complex discussions, but it's not free of filter bubbles and echo chambers.
https://bizfluent.com/about-6601606-monopoly-economics-.html

A monopoly exists when there is a single seller of a commodity. Copyrights and patents are government-granted monopolies.

A broader definition is that a monopolist is a provider that has pricing power - the ability to set prices.

Apple has a monopoly on the channel to deliver iOS apps. Anyone seeking to deliver an iOS app must accept Apple's terms, including Apple's cut of revenue.
I should have phrased that differently.

> You correctly highlight that diverse workers are often subject to more bullying and harassment. On the other hand, many tech companies do discriminate in hiring and that results in greater opportunities being extended to diverse candidates as compared to non-diverse candidates. Both of these are "real racism" (and sexism). Which one is more impactful than the other? That's a subjective question, and people with different experience are going to have different responses.

It's actually pretty clear which of these has the greater impact. Hint: if it were the latter, women and minorities would be over-represented rather than underrepresented in tech. Which I've already stated above.

And, no, comparing racial slurs on the job to diverse hiring is not apples-to-apples, it's apples-to-clan-hooded-racist. There is no way you can be making that comparison in good faith. But do continue tell me how racist slurs and diverse hiring committees are basically the same thing...
Lyft/Uber could batch the deliveries, deliver within an hour specified by the customer... those companies already have data on ratings, they can pull the best drivers on-demand and offer premium pay that's still substantially less than the overhead of a store's truck + driver... plus offering last-mile logistics for multiple stores allows for greater efficiency over store-dedicated trucks.

Insulated boxes, bags with ice, or have the stores define packaging... maybe the store packages goods separately in reusable cloth / insulated bags as appropriate for goods with a deposit for return (in-store or during the next delivery).

> does that mean that someone is considered e2e encrypted if it in theory can support e2e encryption even if it isn't using it right now?

No. My assumption is that certain communications are required to be end-to-end encrypted, unless the individual is under surveillance. All end-to-end encrypted communications providers are required to have a mechanism in place for disabling and MITMing e2e communications. It stops being e2e encrypted for the duration of that surveillance.

I suppose it's possible that a foolhardy government (I'm not Australian, so I can't say for sure what they've done) would word the laws in such a way that they can't technically be achieved, but there's no reason why they have to be. The laws aren't bad laws because they are logically impossible to fulfill (if they are), they're bad laws because they violate the individual's right to privacy.

Note that the law might also prohibit the government from surveilling communications between patients and licensed health professionals. In that case it would be quite possible to mandate no-exceptions e2e for those communications, and a mechanism for disabling e2e. e2e that is never disabled is always e2e.
you don't need to decode thought, you just need to decode information at some really low bitrate to export information (say text).

Working with a NN, the brain can probably negotiate the relevant parameters (let's say frequency modulation across one channels with four bins, across 4 spots on the brain), that's 4^4 = 64 values across whatever timebox of resolution you get. That's enough to encode english letters, which itself probably is an underprovisioned mechanism of data transfer).
