The first book has context that I'd say is required to fully enjoy the third book. So, second->first->third->...

Most the downside of the first book is the quality of the writing; it was written before author really nailed the formula. If you like the second book, the first book will be fine because you get fed more nuggets of information about the broader setting.

To be fair and pedantic, he's proven expertise in broad areas. Regardless, I agree with your last point.
Okay good to know thank you! Somehow I recall finding some products whose source files were not listed next to the schematics, but maybe that was a while ago.
The Fourth Unlock
A "graph" can sometimes implicitly mean a "Simple Graph" which has neither loops nor multiple edges between pairs of vertices, but in some contexts can mean "Multi-Graph", which does allow multiple edges and loops. So the usual conversion of the bridges problem to a network gives us a "Multi-Graph" ... the distinction is often left to be inferred, because it's usually obvious (to the skilled practitioner).

One way around this to end up with a simple graph is to include a vertex in the middle of each bridge. Then each edge has one end in the landmass and the other end in the middle of the bridge. That equivalence/conversion shows that the distinction, in this case, is effectively unimportant.
They have binaries? I must have missed that, the only install instructions I saw were for building from source.

> A recurring pattern in this debate is that people criticize Damore for a lack of expertise. Which is odd given that Damore, a Harvard Masters Degree holder in Systems Biology, is clearly conversant with the research and the context he is giving advice in.

Oh boy. I've got a PhD in CS from one of the best programs in the world. I'm wildly unqualified to synthesize research in another field and would surely make terrible errors if I tried to connect the dots between citations, especially if I started with my connections and went looking for associated citations. Having a familiarity with research is absolutely not evidence that his conclusions will be strongly considered.

This discussion has been had a thousand times. People he cited have responded to his writing. There can be no productive discussion about "were his conclusions correct or not" at this point.

My understanding (perhaps wrong) is that the linux _kernel_ is in the host machine that is running the docker containers, and is not contained in the container image you define in the docker file & build into an image with docker.

So if you don't like how the kernel is configured, that'd require you to reconfigure the kernel on each host that will run your containers, independently of what is inside the container. But perhaps your question is about what is in the container, and not really about the kernel?

Maybe to make your question clearer: what are explicit examples of things that don't you like about the current configuration that you are trying to change or disable?

In terms of removing unnecessary stuff from a container image, the easiest/simplest way to do this probably depends on what application you're packaging into a container & how it is implemented.

For example, it is possible to build container image for a go application that starts with an empty "scratch" container base image (ie there's no layer of distro such as debian, debian-slim or Alpine Linux).

Not sure if this is a great guide but it has an example: https://medium.com/@chemidy/create-the-smallest-and-secured-...

The same approach of starting without a distro as the base layer of the docker container image won't be as easy for deploying a different application that does not contain its own dependencies and assumes it can load a bunch of shared libraries that the distribution provides & read files the distribution has prepared for it.
You're comparing apples to oranges. Lua is a language runtime. Electron is a full browser and a language runtime.

If you want to compare them then compare node.js or JavaScriptCore to lua. Or compare Electron with a lua runtime that has a webkit/chromium engine integration.

I don't especially like Electron, and sometimes like writing lua, but the two are not solving the same problem or competing in the same space.

They can kick you out and tell you if you return you'll be trespassing, but cuffing someone and detaining them in a back room without any legal authority to do so is kidnapping. And depending on how they physically treat you during that, it might be battery or even assault.

I suspect, though, that many/most people in these situations either don't want a run-in with the law, or want to keep a low profile and not make a scene for other reasons, so they'll just go along with it and quietly get out of there.

Of all the federal agencies, the Forest Service seems to produce the worst maps. Not only are they often of dubious quality, they're sometimes very difficult to obtain in the first place. The new "IVM" (https://www.fs.fed.us/ivm/index.html) helps, it really is leaps and bounds better than anything available before, but for district-produced maps like MVUMs they're not necessarily in IVM, sometimes the only way officially to obtain them is to visit the district office, and then sometimes when you do that the district office has never heard of the map you want or has but can't find a copy.
Love the product ! But loading the page is very slow !
Yes, you definitely could? Not sure for this piece of software specifically though. But for land-based photogrammetry in general, they usually use known control-points that have fixed 3d coordinates attached to them in order to calibrate their models. They also use that to effectively "tie" the resulting model to an actual location on the map.

I totally agree, but I think the state of a research field is too malleable / moves too quickly to be a Wikipedia article (where people expect things to be "true").

A few weeks ago I spun up wikisurvey.org to try and make a place for Wikipedia-like collaboration on research. There's nothing on there yet, but I'm hoping it will enable low-latency collaboration once we get the ball rolling.
Just as a small side note:

TL.DR. from that page: It's airbone. The less air, more people and longer exposition in an environment, the higher the risk.

Surfaces play a significant but minor role, outside exposure (a lot of air) is almost irrelevant as long as people don't stay long close to each other.
Here in new Zealand we are embarked on a total eradication path. Just yesterday a friend was espousing that even if we succeed, sooner or later we'll have to join Sweden anyway (unless a vaccine arrives) as the only alternative is to keep our borders entirely shut. Personally I don't have a problem with that, as I have several elderly relatives, but it's amazing to contemplate the decisions that await us all in these strange times.

I don't see how they would work, TBH. I wrote a good amount of low level, accelerated code for deep learning kernels, and I've yet to see a case where sparse stuff is faster than dense. Moreover, based on my knowledge of low level details, I don't see how typical "academic" pruning can be made fast if you aren't using model-specialized hardware. The way you make things fast on CPU/GPU/TPU is by loading as wide a vector as possible, having as few branches as possible, and helping your prefetcher as much as possible. Sparsity gets in the way of all three, _especially_ on the GPU.
Linux (plus other unix and unix-like) exclusive here; I actually don't mind "cross-platform" for "console A or console B", but describing a mouse-and-keyboard game as "cross-platform" implies it works on other mouse-and-keyboard platforms, which in practice amounts to either OSX (which... sucks, basically) or unix (linux/bsd/etc tend to be compatible enough that you can get anything from one working on another with enough hammering).

Well "games that run on both PC and console" works, but it's a bit unwieldy.
Lite is written by rxi, who has made some excellent game jams with very impressive youtube videos showing him doing programming, artwork and sound effects, all at record time [1]. His other github repos are also excellent, for example fe, a minimal Lisp, is definitely worth checking out.

Cool! It's mentioned in pyp's README:

"xonsh is a shell whose language is a superset of Python; this is more ambitious and pretty different from pyp. pyp is easier to use for the one-liner piping use case, but if you need more Python in your shell, check out xonsh."
xonsh is great! I'm a fan of your cousin's work :-) I mentioned it in https://github.com/hauntsaninja/pyp#related-projects for if you want even more Python in your shell.
If you save the break between each line, you wouldn't have to scan to the end of the line, you would just look at the next line break.

But you do recognize that more hispanics are poorer on average than some other races, for example whites, right? So on average, a lot of Hispanic families will be disproportionately affected by having to go to work during unsafe conditions compared to white families who are secure enough to shelter at home until the pandemic boils over. This is literally the basis of systemic/institutional racism/inequalities. You can't deny one and not the other.
Ask HN: Recommendations for clear and concise writing classes/resources?
Long time reader, first time posting.

I am a manager and lots of my work requires me to write about ideas, projects descriptions, designs, and status updates in a clear and concise manner. My writing skills are intermediate at best and looking to improve them in terms of clarity and length.
So far, I’ve identified two books: “On Writing Well” by William Zinsser and “Style: Ten Lessons in Clarity and Grace” by Joseph Williams which I am planning to read. I prefer classes or courses where you can write something, and a person can give you a critique with an explanation and how the content is supposed to be restructured.

What are some recommendations for courses/classes (Bay Area or online) or other resources?
My first thought would be GPU VM's in the cloud.
Libertarian nonsense doesn't even work in everyday life, let alone a pandemic.
Couldn't agree more. Worked at a traditional eletrical engineering job for 9 years. Went to law school at night and came out (with zero law job experience) making twice what I was making in my engineering job. (Caveat -- EE degree was pre-FAANG).
That is inappropriate fear mongering, especially now in this time when people are so worried about the virus. The lungs have an extraordinary ability to heal themselves.

> You raise an interesting point when you ask me to explain why I think HN is anti-China. It was so self-evident to me, but apparently you don't experience it as such. Maybe the HN crowd is not so much anti-China, but rather just misinformed, by virtue of living in the western media bubble which paints a one-sided picture of China.

Again, you're not actually saying anything here, these are just your perceptions.

> I see so many extreme, obviously untrue information, that I see this as anti-China.

Right as I said it seems that you view all criticism of the Chinese Communist Party as criticism of China and Chinese people. This makes you a (ethno)nationalist, which is ironically another western stereotype. That Chinese see all criticism of China as criticism of them personally.

> And Chinese media is very weak against such unsubstantiated attacks. How can I sit back, see all the lies and bullying, and not hope that Chinese media gets their act together?

It's hard to make any conclusion other than you see the CCP as fighting for your image as well as their own. I'm wondering if you are willing to concede this is the case, and if so how do you suggest someone like me to attempt any sort of dialogue? Seems self-defeating.

And if in your opinion I got something wrong, what is it? Thanks for your response ahead of time, I come in good faith to better understand you and your perspective.
No. Lol.

You’re on the run from the US because you committed espionage, and you fly to Russia?

That’s called defecting.
Do you have any more details written up anywhere on how you do this? That sounds like a great project.
I think the main issue is that most mental illnesses are vaguely defined clusters of problems - if you represented a diagnosis as a vector where each index corresponded to severity of a particular symptom, the diagnosis space would not properly aligned with the actual disease basis. This introduces ambiguity - a single disease tends to fall into multiple clusters when your representational domain is misaligned with the actual data axes.

The solution is ML. Neural networks with appropriate architectures effectively perform a change of basis, mapping the data basis to an output coordinate system. When properly trained they can automagically orient their internal representation with the true data bases.
I would love to see peer review done on a greater variety of research outputs, not just papers.

Why not sometimes have movies or pieces of software or physical objects or whatever is the most effective representation of the work?

We all have computers now and international shipping is (usually) pretty easy, it could expand of boundaries of research subjects and methods.

You can't contact your customers via email through Udemy. My customers are my audience and having an email list is crucial. After I found Gumroad, it was a no-brainer to use their platform.

The course site is basically just a marketing page. There's information about the course, some blog posts, and the ability to pay. That's it.

The biggest advantage of Udemy is its audience. How much are you willing to sacrifice for using Udemy to gain an audience? I'd argue you should build the audience first, then sell the product.
The difference between a school and a self taught environment will show those capable of self-learning (auto-didacticicism)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autodidacticism.
Some can do it, some can not - they lack some combination of self study compulsion as well as some aspect of basic intellect ~~IQ.
The other problem is detection of exam cheats - how to invigilate the tests? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exam_invigilator

As we have seen complex processes have emerged whereby people cheat on tests. Radio WiFi in calculators has been found, hearing aid 2-way radios, often with morse signals.

Unless an online school can find a way to defeat all the cheat-modes they will not be able to verify the quality of their graduates. Grads who cheated are soon found out in the job when they fail at the implementation level.
In addition, the lab work needs to be addressed. The U of U-tube is a possibility for watched lab work, but the ability for someone to titrate, or weigh etc etc, is not well taught at the U of U-tube.
That is not to say it is impossible, ways to deal with these aspects are needed before those who hire will accept a graduate for the job. Perhaps detailed interviews with lab work real-time tests will do the job? However MIT et al grads are hired on the basis of their actual learning. Cheaters will not prosper, nor will their schools...
If you can get further down there are links to papers about specific infection instances, but none about toilets.
I think they figured only 20 years average lifespan, for the reason you mentioned. I don't remember about cooling.

They had a pretty detailed cost breakdown. The low cost is only once you have mass production and a large plant. They assume several smaller projects first, which would be quite expensive per kWh and include more R&D cost. Those would have to serve communities with very expensive power, like remote northern communities or military installations.

I wouldn't call it a climate panacea since it'll be quite some time before we can do it at scale. In the meantime we should phase out fossil energy as fast as we can with existing technology.

But it looks like in 15 or 20 years we'll have a thriving industry in space anyway, and it's possible that by then we'll be running up against the practical limits of wind/solar market penetration. SPS might play an important role then.
Thank you for posting this, it was delightful.

I wonder if some folks here might not know that this is by the coauthor of McCulloch and Pitts (1943) A logical calculus of the ideas immanent in nervous activity, which started the study of Neural Nets and was also Kleene's inspiration for starting the study of Finite State machines.

The singer from UK indie pop (?) band Everything Everything self-studied over three weeks this app along with Blender and some othe stuff to make a very stylised, glitchy music video the other week.

https://youtu.be/mcWwGBHa24g

He posted "Thanks for the help, guys!" messages in several Reddit forums. It was weird. "Wait, that's your band?" "Yeah, I'm the singer." "Oh, you sound great keep going!" These guys have sold out rather large venues in the UK. Anyway, this seems to have turned in to an endorsement of the band. Ok, yes it is. But I swear this isn't the singer again.
Take a scenario. Give it best-case figures. See if it works. If it doesn't, then it's impossible. If it misses the mark by just a bit, it's a remote possibility. If it works, try the worst case figures and the average case ones. Of course, you can also start with the worst case ones and show that it works.

I like to approach problems this way. Plus, one can have dreams, can't they?

Once you've shown it can theoretically work, it's time to consider the side effects: best/worst. With the above, someone now controls a multi-gigawat orbiting power source.

Upsides: well, it can power useful stuff just about anywhere on (two third of) earth when there's nothing else to do. That would be really useful to compensate renewables, or other grid fluctuations. One could even imagine making airplanes slower of faster depending on demand.

Downsides: well, somebody really does control that :)

Reread their comment - they are pointing out that CS classes had a DROP in women attending them, and that decline does line up with the rise of computer gaming. They weren't saying women have never had an interest as a result of gaming, but rather as gaming rose there is a corresponding decline. Hardly proof, but as the poster above was stating their personal opinion, they aren't wrong (and they aren't alone in that belief - I've seen it many places).

Here's once quote:
"Starting when computer technology first emerged during World War II and continuing into the 1960s, women made up most of the computing workforce. By 1970, however, women only accounted for 13.6% of bachelor's in computer science graduates. In 1984 that number rose to 37%, but it has since declined to 18% -- around the same time personal computers started showing up in homes. According to NPR, personal computers were marketed almost exclusively to men and families were more likely to buy computers for boys than girls."

Here's a graph of the data: https://images.techhive.com/images/idge/imported/article/ctw.... ( found via https://www.computerworld.com/article/2474991/women-computer... )

Those are only talking about successful degrees, there are plenty of more datapoints to look at when you consider entry vs completion, and similar stats from post-graduation careers. This doesn't prove causality, but their statement stands as viable.
