Now, they're not explicitly saying that 5G is dangerous, but that's not my point.

Rolling out a potentially unsafe technology is dangerous, even if the technology is harmless. Pulling the trigger on a gun that might be loaded is dangerous, even if it isn't loaded.

We don't store deltas, timestamps are stored as 64-bit int back to back in column. So are other primitives actually.

To avoid using indexes we store timestamps in ascending order. Timestamp interval search uses partitioning to cull chunks of data before lifting data in memory. Once in memory we use binary search on ordered timestamps to find intervals.

That said we do support indexes for key-based lookups

I remember when you could just stream in every tweet and reddit comment ever posted with a few lines of code. There used to be dedicated API methods for doing so. Now, there's all sorts of namespacing, rate limiting, pagination, and upper bounds on data access that make this impossible, or at least infeasible.

If your quibble is with the precise definition of "the end of the world" and not with the rest of the statement then I think we're well outside of what concrete facts can resolve. The impacts of 1.5C are going to be horrific. The fact that the impacts of 2, 3, 5, 5C are more horrific doesn't change that.
> The advice to use NULL is usually harmful

The advice is to set NOT NULL if you think the field can't be null. That's valid, and a matter of encoding the schema to correctly match the data. Same with check values. Keep bad data out of the database wherever you can.

> and constraints are not high-performance

Then turn off constraint checking after you've built your schema and identified them as a performance problem. Don't optimize away your data integrity before you've even determined it's a problem.

If you actually don't care about your schema, just use a text field and throw whatever in it, or use a document store without any strict checking. If you're using SQL, presumably you're using it for a reason, and that's likely so you can take advantage of what it has to offer.

3d printing is probably less effective than manufacturing at scale, but it has much lower setup time and overhead cost. Not to mention, this escalated demand for masks and face shields is going to be very short - 1 or 2 years at most. Setting up a whole factory to fulfill only a year or two of demand is not effective. By comparison, you can use your 3d printer for other stuff after the pandemic is over.
I'd agree with this take. I think some number of people will realize they don't like needing to go to the office every day but also can't feasibly work from inside their own house (kids, dogs, spotty wifi, loud neighbors, etc).
> I attended a 12-week data science bootcamp in mid-2016. ...

Yeah, well there's your problem, my dude. I've been doing what might be described as "data science" since I quit physics in 2004. Aka before the term existed. It's a great area to work in for intelligent people who want to use their brains to impact the real world; vastly better than what people get paid to do in physics. If customers don't know what the tools can do, it's because you as the data scientist have failed to explain it to the customer. If your work product isn't in front of the decision makers, you've also failed: they can tell the bottom line impact and will reward you accordingly. Sometimes there is no data in their data; they should know that up front.

As for whining about poor data quality: n00b. What do you think they're paying you for? Nobody gives a shit what people do in Kaggle competitions.

It reminds me distantly of an earlier time when just the web was sort of owned ... by the web folk.

In the sense that even corporate sites if you found it would have a little corner where the 'webmaster' had a page that mentioned the server, or his cat, or some silly pic. Some sort of character or tidbit before any of the branding drones were really aware of the web. All just because the 'webmaster' was the only one really in charge / who understood the site was even there and they wanted to share.

I suspect to some extent the APIs were the same. Someone who really didn't mind was all "Yeah sure if someone wants to see what I did.. awesome."
I'm reminded of this little gem: https://hookrace.net/time.gif

But on the topic: is there actually a dearth of APIs "these days" vs peak Web-2.0, or have the major players just restricted theirs due to abuse, and thus it seems like the whole world of possibilities have veen restricted? One can easily find lists of public apis (e.g https://github.com/n0shake/Public-APIs), but perhaps the video was more about the facilitators, like Yahoo Pipes.

I was trying out ZeroTier a few years back and found it fantastic. I was, at the time, working for a large security network device provider and trying to get R&D to bake it into the flagship product - this was before SD-WAN really took off. I never got anywhere with that agenda, but - still think that would have been a fantastic use case.

I'm curious if the stalwarts of the network security space, with their old and crusty VPN concentrators, finally move on WireGuard. Likely not until enough customers move away from them to a solution using, or they get around to finally running a recent kernel.

It’s odd. I wouldn’t tell security researchers to build something better.

Yet on these high-level comments I have a reaction to tell to build rather than critique.

It must be that the OP faults a company that’s providing tremendous value to society. It’s not without its faults, but to focus on that seem petty? Tone death?

The more I think about your retort of the security the more I think it’s a false comparison. The good ones, demonstrate exactly what the problem is and sometimes even provide a solution.

Here the solution is to use software that has more friction, that robs the grandmas of the world of connection and waste peoples time fixing technology.

So with that I stand by my original comment of don’t criticize, build.

I took a data visualisation class in uni that handled this really cleverly. The second assignment sounded very easy. The teacher provided links to the sources where we could find data.

Most people figured that with such a simple assignment (not significantly harder than the first one, which was also easy-ish) they could put off doing it until the last moment.

Most people failed.

This real world data needed hours upon hours of cleaning before it was in any way useable. Of course, the teacher knew this, gave bonus points to the ones who did start in time, and then extended the deadline as he had expected to from the start.

Never again will I underestimate the dirtiness of real world data. One of the best teachers I had.

The real issue with data science, from the perspective of ML pipelines/using ml in products, is most people are straight up not smart enough for it. The second the problem falls outside the bounds of a commonly used model, 90% of data scientists are ill equipped to come up with a profitable solution. So they stumble around in the dark, producing nothing of real value. People underestimate the degree to which extreme mathematical maturity and skill can bend the results of commonly used ml models.

> It takes 12+ hours to print anything useful. Yet media loves talking about 3D printing.

Face shields are useful and can be printed in under 3 hours (for the Prusa design). Some people have knocked the time down to about one hour.

For something that costs cents and can be made at home, that's pretty useful.

> it is a poor way to do anything besides home hobby projects

Tell that to SpaceX.

"3D Printing" encompasses a whole lot of technologies which all fall under the additive manufacturing umbrella. FDM is the most common, but it's not the only one. Multi jet fusion, laser sintering and others are "3d printing" just the same. Not all of them will take hours to build a part.

> injection molding (20 seconds a part!), die cast aluminium, water jet cutting, laser cutting, metal stamping, and machining.

And none of this, except for laser cutting, can be done outside dedicated manufacturing facilities. All these technologies have been around for decades now. Why would they get any attention? But they actually do... "company X builds a new factory at Y location". Boom. Attention. They won't care about the specific technologies... because why would they?

Take injection molding. It may take 20 seconds, but that's _ after the manufacturing facilities and the mold are setup _ . This is unlike essentially pressing a print button, which is where we want to go.

> and another challenge to make 5 million of those prototypes per week

5 million units a week... these are not prototypes. Call them production samples or what have you, but this is an assembly line.

The only reason we are even talking about 3D printing is because we are having shortages. All those tried and proven technologies are unable to keep up with the demand. So people are trying to supplement them with other, less time-efficient, technologies.

Is it really that bad if some airlines fail? That whole industry really needs to be restarted IMO. Their assets would be purchased at a major discount by others who would likely create new airlines, or you might potentially see the healthiest ones consolidate the market (which wouldn't be the best outcome). Also, why isn't there consideration for nationalization of one of these failed airlines rather than giving them tax payer money even as a loan?
I found TD Ameritrade's API to be extremely poorly documented, so I fixed it
Hey guys, I was trying to figure out how start with TD Ameritrade's API to experiment with some algorithm trading, and found little to nothing.

Its totally free on Gumroad: https://gum.co/XKxGc (pay what you want, minimum amount is $0), so if you have been looking to get started with algorithm trading with TD Ameritrade and hit a dead end, look no further. This guide is for you.

Perhaps you're thinking of Hiveworks? They're less an ad network and more like a publishing company for webcomics. Many of those types of "webcomic ad-rings" are.
The way many compressors work is based on recent data, they try to predict immediately following data. The prediction doesn't have to be perfect; it just has to be good enough that only the difference between the prediction and the exact data needs to be encoded, and encoding that delta usually takes fewer bits than encoding the original data.

The compression scheme here is similar. Transmit a low res version of an image, use a neural network to guess what a 2x size image would look like, then send just the delta to fix where the prediction was wrong. Then do it again until the final resolution image is reached.

If the neural network is terrible, you'd still get a lossless image recovery, but the amount of data sent in deltas would be greater than just sending the image uncompressed.

The neural net predicts the upscaled image, then they add on the delta between that prediction and the desired output. No matter what the neural net predicts, you can always generate some delta.

If masks or face-shields could be cleaned fairly easily then it probably is a scalable supply. Particularly if medical professionals are allowed to supply their own work tools.
