Switched from Mac to a system76 laptop last year. The build quality is a lot worse but the software just gets out of my way and does its job. So nice not to have to worry about Apple or Microsoft overlords anymore. Makes me want to get a puri.sm phone to completely leave big tech behind.

Plausible deniability. They can turn around and say it's racism. It's their (and the Russian) MO. As long as there's no absolutely clear, unmistakable evidence, they can spin spin spin and too many people will buy their bullshit. It also provides a cover for politicians to not do anything. I see it here and elsewhere. People jumping to China's defense at every opportunity even though they deserve zero trust.
I’ve just moved within Apple, and requisitioned a top-of-the-line MBP (my current one is from 2014, I used to use a Mac Pro in my old position). Even with a custom build to top spec, and with it being internal (ie: not customer), it was still shipped in 2 days and arrives tomorrow.

I first thought that OP estimate was way off, but from your numbers he may be right! If you only need 200 tons of soil for 1kg of Ur, that's not much.

A cubic meter of soil is ~2 tons, maybe more, which means you only need a 10m by 10m square to get 1kg of Ur if you go 1m deep. Wow.

It wants to be secure personal server that anyone and their mother can setup and use. I have hard time understanding how people have hard time understanding this. It's not that "complex" guys.
I hold .org domains, and I felt somewhat annoyed I wasn't consulted as a decisive stakeholder by ISOC, and I also consider myself an ISOC member and have worked with these people on and off. I know these people from email lists, from f2f at IETF, from other policy meetings. I just didn't expect them to do this.

I found the lack of engagement prior to the transaction truly shocking. I understand some of the reasons, even if I disagree with them: I think the ISOC board did not breach the law. But I do think they broke an implicit social contract.

The thing is: there is a downside. This was going to create a large abiding fund for ISOC. It was going to create something of real world value. Alibeit at the expense of some principle but there is now a consequence, something which might have been good won't happen directly, or as quickly.

I also think its premature to assume some kind of sale or change in PIR/.org will not actually still happen: they just have to do more work. And, probably, for lower $value since its no longer as simple. (I don't think in the current economic climate the price will be as good)
If this gets to front page I'll put a demo server up

> In general this is against our principles. We prefer to teach people how to use powerful tools rather than make less powerful tools that are easier to use.

IMHO progressive disclosure is important, because if you want something to be widespread, beginners should be able to use SourceHut with little guidance.

> I don't believe that users are not capable of learning new things.

Well, for the users to learn git terminology, one has to start using git — and one of the biggest reasons is to start using git is to clone popular projects or cooperating between different people. If SourceHut is hostile (I’m not saying that it’s currently hostile, but I think it may improve) for people who don’t what a ‘ref’ is, people have to start using GitHub — and the newcomers of SourceHut becomes the very small portion of people who are already an ‘git expert’ and is interested in emailing patches.

If SourceHut wants to make the email patches/other workflows that SourceHut encourages mainstream, I think it’s crucial for git newcomers to be able to use it. It’s a losing game otherwise.
Unlike other companies, the no-pay leave is voluntary, they are not forcing people to take leave(atleast till now). Also the amount of pay cut is replaced by RSU. I think Grab is doing good enough job to support workers and drivers and to support it's business.

P.S used to work for Grab till last week. Left because of personal reasons. Opinions are my own
I have been thinking for a long time if having Switches that is limiting in total bandwidth would help save cost. Example you dont need 40Gbps on a 4 Port 10Gbps switch, or a 20Gbps on a 4 Port 5Gbps Switch. For Consumer usage, you only really need to be able to sustain Maximum speed on 1 port, while others working at a lower speed or next speed grade down.
They are issuing RSUs in lieu of pay.
Me not being able to explain Kubernetes to my mother hasn't stopped it from being a resoundingly successful project, and it's not clear to me why Urbit should be different.
They will die if they just ride-share.

Is it actually astounding though, when viewed in the context of every other bit of malfeasance and naked corruption occurring at every level in the US? The government itself is openly criminal and flouts the rule of law, crony capitalism is the default state, Trump and the GOP have normalised corruption on a grand scale.

For example, just weeks ago highly placed senators were discovered to have conducted insider trading on the back of security briefings on the coronavirus pandemic, and that was out of the news cycle within 48 hours, replaced by a dozen new unprosecuted crimes.

The fundamental nature of the country has changed, perhaps permanently. Once the descent into fascism begins in earnest it's very hard to claw your way back without bloodshed, and unfortunately the US shows no signs that it will reverse course any time soon.

Edit: Downvote all you like, it won't change reality.
>>Anything you learn in college can be learned from a book or YouTube.

That which can be learned by one-way communication from a book or video are not all that can be learned. Through dialogue and practice one may learn techniques of proofs in math classes, lab techniques in science classes, how to write and edit papers in humanities classes. All the practice that drama, art, or music majors do amplifies what they learn from their books. And so on.

The NFL wouldn't hire college football players who got all their learning from books or YouTube.

According to this[1] the weight for 1 cubic meter of dry soil is 1200kg, so 6 grams of uranium per cubic meter.

Looking at average suburban lot sizes, they seem to be about 7200 sqft , which is about 668m^2.

Which gives 668m^3 which gives about 4kg of uranium shockingly.

I expect that the fallout from this will also be that the current board of ISOC gets replaced. But maybe that's too much to hope for.
But your suggestion relies on them knowing what "branches" are - an equally tenuous proposition for a new programmer, I think. Recall that at one point, you didn't know how to use GitHub, either. Pull requests? Cloning? What do these words mean, out of context? New users on GitHub struggle a lot, too, something I know from firsthand experience dealing with new programmers on my GitHub projects all the time.

I would prefer to solve these problems by fostering a culture of mentorship, and being responsive to questions. This is what I do on GitHub, too.

“And, beginning in May, the ride-hailing company will reportedly put forward a 30 percent reduction in pay for executive leadership, 20 percent for vice presidents and 10 percent for all other staffers who are exempt per a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing.”

This stuff grinds my gears. I think they could take a bigger pay cut. I see this everywhere not just with Grab. The CEO Anthony Tan is in the top 50 riches people in Malaysia.

Yeah I agree about the mistakes. A few YouTubers do it and it really helps, along with the casual "do this or that doesn't matter, whatever you want" to make it all a bit less scary and stressful.

Adam Ragusea is pretty good at that too I think. And he also does the occasional more scientific video where he looks into stuff like whether teflon or olive over high heat is actually dangerous, which I find very interesting.
Great response! I read the headline and asked myself what the hell else is there to do? Get a papal blessing and/or a good law firm, what?

> In this particular case, this is the first time anyone has commented on "refs" being difficult to understand in the 1.5 years that SourceHut has been around.

To be fair, when I tried sourcehut the first time around, I did go ‘wtf’ when I saw branches being called refs.

I didn’t end up using it though, so I’m probably not the target market.

I do like the reasoning behind the hub released now though, so maybe I’ll try again.
If you like ssh-import-id to pull keys from GitHub, you’ll love AuthorizedKeysCommand to pull keys from GitHub.

Depending on use case, though, this can be a bit sketch. At smallstep we like SSH certificates, which make life similarly easy on everyone with a bunch of other benefits. You can find a couple relevant posts on our blog if you’re interested.

Incidentally, GitHub now supports SSH certificates (for enterprise edition, at least).

The biggest difference is the “...” assignment to fn. The idea is similar to AWS Lambda — write functions, store those functions, and then call them later when you need them. I’ve minimal Lisp experience, but from my perspective, a closure is a function you can store in a variable that’s defined with a scope, or a set of arguments/variables used in your function, that often (but not always) includes variables from the parent scope it was defined in, (often only) if referenced by the function. Because closures need to have independent scopes, by default values (or variables) that can mutate need to be copied — alternatively, you can use immutable data structures which copy more cheaply. The big differences then between closures and other types of code often comes down to how frequently immutability is used, and whether you call functions that assume state or share state (more OO, or non-FP), or transfer functions with state to other functions (FP, though composability and other properties matter too when defining FP, this is a simplification). This is a bit of a vague answer, perhaps others can chime in with a better one. And if you’re not careful, FP can introduce problems too, though that happens more often with distributed, multi-threaded or recursive programs which can themselves be hard to write using non-FP also.
How does PopOS handle regular bug fixes? Do they rely on the Ubuntu repository or do they apply the same patches and build again?

This was their argument the whole time, but it seems incredibly weak. The money from the sale was presumably the net present value of the future domain revenue (minus whatever losses from the apparent self-dealing). If they were going to keep it as an endowment and only spend the interest so that it wouldn't run out over time then it wouldn't be anything more than the revenue they already had.

Whereas if they were going to spend it all at once then it seems a lot like mortgaging the future. On top of that, if they really wanted to do that then they didn't need to sell the registry -- just take out a loan. Interest rates are super low right now.

If the thing they wanted to do with the money wasn't so pressing that it could justify borrowing money to do it immediately instead of letting the money come in over time then it couldn't have been so pressing as to justify the sale either.
IIRC someone in a previous post here about this, someone did the math and found that, based on .org revenues, ISOC would make the intended sale price in something on the order of 10 years. It's remarkably short-sighted to sell a cash cow like that just to get some money in-hand sooner.

Personally, I don't mind Kira. I also work at a megacorp that uses Jira and the idea that if I found something ten times as good as Jira I could somehow get the organization to switch just strikes me as absurd. We're too invested in Jira. Too many people using it. Too much internal stuff built on top of it. Change is unthinkable.
While we are on the topic of lineageos, I would appreciate if someone could recommend which device to get for it. When I tried to check earlier, it seemed every device was either Chinese (privacy concern) Google-made (privacy-concern), many years outdated, or only unofficially supported.

Well yes, but there are also a whole lots of CAT6x cables. CAT6 is now close to 20 years standard, and CAT6A or in earlier cases CAT6e is now 12 years +. As a matter of fact within consumer Home usage distance CAT5e may well be good enough for 5Gbps as well.

Having 5Gbps End point gives you much more flexibility, instead we got 2.5Gbps. Unless the BOM cost made a lot of difference I dont understand this trade offs. Especially considering we have 802.11ax potentially offering 5Gbps+ and 802.11ay that runs faster then 10Gbps. We are coming in an age where a cheaper Wireless equipment is outrunning our wired counterpart.

Thankfully most people I see do seem to be trying to keep a 6-foot radius between households, even in the pictures of crowded beaches that make it to the news.

Is there any evidence that brief incidental contact can spread the virus in significant amounts? I seem to recall that at one point officials were saying you needed extended (15 minutes or more) close contact to be considered at risk. If that is the case then I don’t see much risk in walking past another person on your way to the beach. And if it’s not the case then we might as well give up on contact tracing, because without massive invasions of privacy we can’t trace down every passerby of an infected individual. Of course the science has been moving fast here, so this could be outdated.

We must live in a very very different place then. In my country (France) the national medias (press, TV, radio) are all but left oriented. The fact that free speech is nominally guaranteed by law doesn’t means that in practice anything outside the politically correct views can be expressed. The self-censorship is heavy, and campaigns against wrongthink are numerous and fierce.

Modbyte tuning is amazing, but I'm still a bit confused how you jump back into the modbytes.
You're completely correct that it was going to be NPV neutral and an endowment. But the structural independence that ISOC would then have had, and the freedom from constraints of income tied to a service delivery changes how you plan and what kind of long-term plans you can make.

So I sort-of agree and disagree. It wasn't really a huge windfall outcome, viewed as a perpetuating fund. But it was a huge structural change for ISOC, and very possibly the IETF too.

I'd more generally describe the area as first order optimization, including methods like acceleration, automatic differentiation, stochastic approaches. Adam is just one trick for determining a hyperparameter.

They are usable everywhere derivative-based optimization is usable. Which certainly means SVM's, though since it's a shallow method you don't need much data to train it, and hence don't need a scalable optimization methods (it would just be unnecessarily slow). But you certainly could do it if you somehow needed to. Here's the first hit on google for "sgd svm': https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.li...

The fact that you can't use first order optimization methods for graphical models is one answer to the question of why everyone doesn't use them. Though for small models there are deep networks which model them and are trained as per usual for neural networks. I think this is still an active research area.
I hope this doesn't stop the AG from completing their investigation of ICANN which is a non-profit based in California. They should still subpoena all the communications at ICANN related to the proposed ownership transfer of .org that is outlined in the original letter to ICANN.
