This is spot on. I am horified at what my kids will learn as normal from watching porn when they later get access to it. There is so much garbage out there that is pushing the notion of normality that they will be utterly confused. Im not a prude either but I find “deepthroat” as utterly disgusting, someone is chocking and gagging and makes me vomit. And yet, Ive seen girls who learned to enjoy it because that makes them normal to their peers while they secretly don’t like choking or gagging. This is just one example, there are way more. Im so happy I grew up and former with less access to porn.

I really dont know what the solution can be for this other than curating what types of videos they could watch. Some of the stuff is dangerous too
The Conspiracy Myth
I got one of those free personal trainer sessions at the gym once. In chatting with my personal trainer, I discovered that he lives in an RV outside the gym, and uses the gym to shower every morning and uses their bathroom so he doesn't have to spend money emptying/filling his tanks on his RV. A solar panel on the roof covered his electricity.

Basically by being employed by the gym and living in an RV he had no recurring expenses expect car insurance.
One of the biggest problems with serverless on AWS with cloud formation is how ridiculously slow your deployments get. The other problem is long tail latencies on lambda invocations, it gets worse if you want to run services inside a VPC

Serverless isn’t going anywhere until we get something like kubernetes for functions.
Very true -- interesting when the barrier to using the tool signifies a certain level of professionalism and investment in wanting the paper to look and read right.

However, there is a part of the curve where random failed grad student and retired professors become conspiracy cranks and email you half-baked theories about the shape of the universe, typeset in Latex -- and those get through the filter unfortunately.
I've found people hate giving numbers to things when estimating how a system would work, or what it would need. Ballparking can really help though.

I've found success asking questions such as "Roughly how much will updating my abstract cost? I won't hold you to the number, but are we talking closer to $200 or $800?". I make sure the numbers are quite far apart, and use it to figure high/low ends of required performance, deciding if something that's not currently the bottleneck will become a bottleneck, etc.

Also, converting between hourly and salaried, you can roughly use 40 hrs/week * 50 weeks/year = 2,000 hours/year.
I think they joined the MPAA so they could influence it towards their more liberal views on how content should be released. If anything I think it will mean other companies relax their rules.
Not many, I usually only do it when the domain or URL pattern in question is almost exclusively used for sessions/invites/sharing-links and basically every URL submitted leaks either a customer name and/or invite-token and/or PII. zoom.us is a good example, certain DocuSign URL patterns, the sort of thing where knowing the URL gets you a sensitive document, etc.
Great work putting this together.
Try i3 as a Window manager. Put every app in a separate single window, and instead of alt-tab you use, e.g: alt+1 terminal, alt+2 browser, etc... You can have as much workspaces as you need and assign applications to specific workspace. This way I always know where every app or category of app exists. And this mostly works on default i3 config, no learning curve.

How would you reduce charge to geometry? Or spin?

Can we differentiate by space the electrons in an atom of helium?

But we sort of digress. The question was if a concept of space is required to a concept of math, and specifically, if we can have distinction without space. Surely we can at least think of distinction without space, even if we'd fail to present that in our physical world?
It is sad. I will say that many years ago I was stuck on the cloud bandwagon, but today if you asked me how a new business should set up their infra, I would advocate for on-prem or leasing bare metal from some provider.

Just a simple way to provision and snapshot VMs is what 99% of businesses actually need. This is what most businesses have always needed. Many are still using this exact same technology today without any problems.
That's not correct. You can pursue damages outside of your jurisdiction through a process called "domestication". Generally speaking US courts will enforce judgements from other countries with a legitimate legal system.

This is great!

Putting anything mathematics-related on the Web and making it look half-decent is such a chore. Thank you for making it easier!

MathJax and KaTeX are a great thing, but there's a contrast between formulas and the rest of the document unless you use something like this.

The comments here as of now fall into two groups:

- "Who needs it and why?"

People who want to present or discuss mathematics and proofs on the Web. If you ask, you're not one of them.

- "This does not exactly like LaTeX!"

Duh. It does not. Only TeX looks like TeX.

You know what else TeX does? It takes forever to compile, and the nice-looking result is a PDF that most people will be too lazy to download.

So, we have the ArXiV. And if your website is not the ArXiV, linking to PDFs is far from ideal. Static generation is a chore.

This is a compromise.

TL;DR: great work, much needed and appreciated

Here’s the critical paragraph from results. I think another path forward would be to keep the low/medium dosing but titer for lack of Ad5 antibodies before qualifying a patient for the vaccine.

> Before vaccination, 20 (56%) participants in the low dose group, 19 (53%) participants in the middle dose group, and 16 (44%) participants in the high dose group had a high pre-existing Ad5 neutralising antibody titre (>1:200). Only five (25%) participants of 20 in the low dose group, seven (37%) participants of 19 in the middle dose group, and ten (63%) participants of 16 in the high dose group, who had high pre-existing Ad5 immunity, had at least a four-fold increase in neutralising antibody titre at day 28 post-vaccination (appendix pp 8–10). Multivariable analysis showed that high pre-existing Ad5 neutralising antibody titres compromised the seroconversion of neutralising antibody post-vaccination, regardless of the vaccine doses, and recipients aged 45–60 years seemed to have lower seroconversion of neutralising antibody compared with the younger recipients (appendix p 11). The Ad5 neutralising antibodies were significantly boosted post-vaccination (appendix p 12).
This is what you do in Linux with i3.
Most of the ones I've seen subcontract you out in one fashion or another, so they're constantly taking a cut of your billing (or... you're getting a cut of their billing). I don't recall seeing a 'service' that is just warm, qualified leads where you do the rest. They may exist, but I can't recall any, and I'd bet I know why. The qualifying/warm part is where you get to some degree of trust between two parties - for them to explicitly turn around and sell that to someone else they don't really know - it can potentially damage their brand. If they need to get to 'know' you as well (vetting/testing/etc), there's little reason for them to give up either end of that relationship - they're in control at that point.

“Rust is a complete waste of time”

Just because you're not capable of interpreting the formalism doesn't make it useless or not substantive. This readme wasn't written for you it was written for a type theorist.
I wonder what that number is anywhere else in the world. Most countries have a legal minimum paid time off higher than that (the USA is the exception when compared to the vast majority of countries, rich or poor), but most companies give a bit more than the minimum in our field, so what I'm wondering is whether the difference is large enough that rounding it up doesn't make sense.

Personally I've got 6 paid weeks off every year (their default, I didn't negotiate that number) plus public holidays (iirc that adds up to another two weeks but maybe it's just one) with both my past and previous employer which were in different western European countries, but I don't know if that's average.
>> “ Also, converting between hourly and salaried, you can roughly use 40 hrs/week * 50 weeks/year = 2,000 hours/year.”

Even better, take just take an hourly rate, 2x it, add three zeros = annual salary; literally takes seconds to do once you know 2000 hours per year is the assumed hours worked per year.
That sounds interesting, I'll try that, thanks!

I guess that depends if failure is visiting the unique URL they've sent you or actually inputting credentials.

I got curious about an obvious internal phishing test and decided copy the link to another machine and see how convincing it was... I hadn't clicked, it wasn't my work machine, and I didn't enter any details - but instantly received an email informing me I'd failed.

I asked "How is that?" because relying on worker-reported hours is no less consistent with the profit motive than are current standards for salaried employees.

Employers can still calculate "profit per worker hour". And it's arguably more accurate when based on reported work time, rather than just days worked.

Thanks for this excellent reply. I want to print this out and stick it up on a wall.
They've been sketchy since inception. I was in a very early batch, if not the first, in 2015.

Remember that the premise was that they were non-adversarial, anti-gotcha interviews, whiteboards, nit-picky algo implementations from memory, etc. They purported to do some qualitative analysis instead.

We schedule a session and I get the confirmation: "This is a chance for you to go into more depth, and show us something that you've built. This will not be a high-pressure interview." I get at email the day before our scheduled session that says, "Remember that we're going to talk to you about a project that you've worked on," as agreed.

The following day, just a few hours before our appointment, a founder emails me saying, "Just wanted to give you a quick heads up that rather than walking through a project today, you'll be doing some programming together with an engineer."

They duped me into an adversarial interview. That kinda thing grinds my gears, but I went along with it anyway. I get the response: "We really enjoyed it and thought you did great. We'd love to talk more with you and invite you to a second technical interview."

I opted out as this continued. They acknowledged that they were changing things around without telling people, but it was just so antithetical to the mission that it became disingenuous.

When you pair that attitude of disregard with fact that they're playing sociologists, it's a bad look.

The company I work at works with and contains a significant amount of PII regularly phishes on our staff. It’s usually between 1 in 5 and 1 in 4 that will click on the link. Despite all of the education and quarterly repeated phishes those number really aren’t improving much. I think at some point you have to accept that end users will click on things, and add additional protections in place to help mitigate the risk.
This is a specious problem _at best_. We have a very secure operating system doing things that others don't even try to do (notary) and we are complaining because our shell scripts take n seconds to run? Really people? If you are running signed and notarized (stapled) binaries, the system never even reports them to Apple in the first place.

This is the height of insanity to think that Apple or anyone else would want this data or use it for some nefarious purposes...anonymous hashes of junk data are essentially useless outside of this purpose. It's fine to claim not to trust anyone for anything, but most of us aren't willing or able to build our own hardware, write our own operating system, and write our own applications. We have asked our vendors for devices and code that are more trustworthy, and when they give them to us we COMPLAIN about it incessantly. This makes no sense to me.
Yes, this is how I do it in my head. I should have mentioned that given the context of the post!
Would that that were the case (compilers getting better). See http://embed.cs.utah.edu/csmith/
C compilers for the PDP-11 were pretty good if only because they were both simple, single threaded, and C was essentially a verbose version of the PDP-11 instruction set. Languages got more abstract and instruction sets (including their models of execution) got more complex. Optimizing the compilation of an abstraction with a faulty understanding of either the abstraction or the instruction set (or both) begets bugs you can't see as reported in the reference above. OB: I personally would like to see these folks point their AI code machine at netlib including the Collected Algorithms of the ACM. Generating numerical methods code is, in my experience, not the same as generating much of what is found on Github.

We are already there. One repo for the entire organization, one binary image per customer, and one management tool to bind it all. Everyone is working in the same box and adding value in the same direction.

I'm not sure to understand what you're asking.

Resellers have very low margins on core parts like CPU, GPU, memory, mainboards. They make money elsewhere. That's why you don't really see bullshit pricing like 199.99 when you buy a CPU. For instance the last CPU I bought was 193.42.
Sure. But rust was not possible without all the research and little prototype languages. I think it’s good that many people are trying many things (as long as they clearly report their findings).
there is no "work contract" for employment in the US. It's at-will employment, the employer can change the terms at any time and if the employee doesn't like it, he can go elsewhere. Not saying this is a good thing (European countries do have work contracts for instance), or even expressing a preference (I personally think having a contract would be a good thing), just stating the state of affairs in US employment.

I wish more companies followed this pattern. In order to cancel my gym membership I had to write a letter. They didn’t respond to my first one, so I had to send a second via certified mail and then it was done.

No and poorly. After much reflection I figured out why I failed the ways I failed all those times I failed.

Knowing that selling is necessary is not the same thing as being in position to sell. I have a realistic, i.e., pessimistic, view of how well all those factors match to the relevant markets. It's probably in inverse correlation with my ability to write comments like these here...or this is how I avoid selling.
I'm flattered, naturally :)

You're right, I was misinterpreting the language of the standard.

As a practical matter, C implementations typically define NULL as a void pointer, so the cast is not necessary in those implementations (In C++ pre C++11, NULL is always defined as a literal 0, so the cast is definitely necessary).

But it appears the standard allows C implementations to define NULL as a literal 0 or as 0L as well, so the cast is needed in portable code.
