Have you watched his Home Cooking series, with his family? I can't remember the details intricately, but it did seem far more grounded and specific than his other work (which, to be fair, Master Chef and his others are aimed at dissecting people who should be accomplished cooks and need honing and refining).
I bet most of their creators sell their services as part of a profit sharing agreement too. Gordon Ramsey already creates content for YouTube, because he has to in order to stay relevant. For him, Masterclasses are (probably) just better paying YouTube videos.

Not necessarily so. Consider std::hash, which is a template heavily specialized by many types. Then containers like std::unordered_set use these specializations. You can totally turn a Rust trait into a C++ templated struct, and then turn Rust impls into template specializations of that struct.

> I have to say that framing reflection in terms of deriving an implementation of an interface is pretty powerful.

Just wait till you see Haskell's Generic. (Not to be confused with generics in other languages.) It turns out for most applications you don't even need to derive an implementation of an interface.

Looking Glass - 3D display - confused me for a second with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Looking_Glass_server

Surfboard - audio feature extraction using ML - nonsense name

Plywood - cross-platform C++ framework - nonsense name, okay I sort of get it

I work in the steel fabrication / construction industry, so the material / construction technology related names catch my attention a lot and I wonder about them.

No, it isn't.

But the damage it causes to innocent parties through its choice of business models is.

It is easy to forget that not so long ago, the Internet giants of today were little startups too, and not so long before that, they didn't exist at all. They have reached the dominant positions they are now in through a combination of factors. Several of those factors involve absolving themselves of responsibility for things going wrong, even things that might have been (or might still be) considered illegal, because preventing them is difficult or practically impossible with a purely technological solution.

Well, guess what? There is no law that says they get a right to exist and be astonishingly profitable by relying on technology at the expense of anyone else who gets hurt by their action or inaction. There is no law that requires the existence of huge video redistribution services that allow anyone to upload content, including malicious content that may cause serious harm to others, with impunity. Laws that do protect these organisations, such as the safe harbour provisions under the DMCA and its counterparts around the world, were invented after the fact and it's far from clear that they strike a healthy balance (particularly when, as I can personally testify, the likes of YouTube do not always meet their obligations even under the very generous terms of those laws).

If these companies can't act as responsible corporate citizens using their current business models, maybe they shouldn't use those business models. It is disturbing that this simple idea now seems almost heretical, as if we are somehow beholden to these Internet giants and the world would fail without them, and so it's somehow OK that they also magnify harmful effects from spreading dangerous misinformation to invasion of privacy but as long as it's someone else uploading the content the hosting service is deemed innocent of all wrong-doing.
And businesswire, newswires in general, press releases, and lazy reporting! All at once!

But really though. It’s one thing to buy air time or use your controlling interest in news stations to run misinformation campaigns. Publishing an article to what is essentially an RSS feed for journalists and them running the story verbatim is on the news station, not the company.
> What if, instead, you had a personal AI that read every Facebook post and then decided what to show you. Trained on your own preferences, under your control, with whatever settings you like.

That would be great. Having an artificial intelligence as a user agent would be perfect. That'd be the ideal browser. So many science fiction worlds have the concept of an intelligent navigator who acts on behalf of its operator in the virtual world, greatly reducing its complexity.

Today's artificial intelligences cannot be trusted to act on our best interests. They belong to companies and run on their computers. Even if the software's open source, the data needed to make it useful remains proprietary.
Imagine Amazon with a radically different UI: a physical store on wheels that automatically stocks itself with products you’re likely to buy and then drives itself to your house. You go inside and take what you want; then the vehicle returns to base and stocks itself for the next customer.

I want that.
>That’s a pretty indifferent attitude to take.

I don't see that at all. Encouraging people to do things for their own merit and not just to make money – and we have to be realistic here, most people trying to make money on YouTube or anywhere by creating content won't ever see a single dollar from it, so it's more like trying to win a crappy lottery.

It's this constant sense of entitlement or talking like people are forced into making videos for a living which bothers me. It's a crappy job that is pretty easy to know how it works before you get into it. I keep seeing "no choice", well you can always do something else.
Meh. I still think that is a mistake. Windows Mobile lost because it was late to market, and was not designed well the first two times.

Windows Mobile 10 was good, so was ability to develop for desktop, mobile and Xbox with one codebase. IMO Microsoft shut it down when it actually was becoming awesome.

Maybe Windows 10 ARM64 will still come back to phones though.

That’s fair. I do like the project, and everything is well documented and easy to follow.

I should have prefaced my statement with the fact that I was trying to install it on something other than a raspberry pi. I have only tried on my Rock Pro 64 board. But to be fair, they are pretty mature, well supported boards at this point.

I understand that it is designed to run on Pi boards first so the issue is likely my specific hardware. But Pi-hole is supposed to be compatible with Ubuntu 18.04 so I would have expected it to work regardless?

I’m not a networking expert though, if anyone has experience with pi-hole on Rock pro’s or other Pine boards I’d love to know!

Maybe I’ll just go ahead and invest in one of the new Pi boards with 4Gb memory :) That was the main reasons I got the Rock Pro 64 to begin with.
I've been in more than one meeting where, after lengthy discussion about product name, the group circled again back to the original (temporary) name created by the developers.

And in that time it had somehow subtly become adopted by marketing as theirs :)

(To be fair, picking names is hard, even if you are in marketing. I'm sure there's plenty of science, but one of the best ways IMO is to just blather them all around for a while and see what feels right/sticks after a day or two).
> Regulators need to step in imo.

Regulators did step in. The Federal MPG standard (CAFE) was reformulated in 2007 so that the targets are based on the footprint of the car (wheel track * wheel base). As a result, small trucks either got bigger or disappeared from the market.

Have a look at the current standards; I don't see how you're going to make a small truck that does the things people want their truck to do and fits in the mileage requirements.

Highly recommend reading Reamde first if you can. The story is entirely different, but is the same world and comes chronologically first; I felt the continuity added a lot when reading Fall.
I would guess because there’s no real coercion in it. A company has every interest to make it as easy as possible to news outlets to run the story and to so they write the whole thing and leave it to the journalists if they want to do anything else with it. Some - many - are lazy and just publish it verbatim.
The Fast Fourier Transform (1965) is one very important algorithm that comes to mind, speeding up Fourier Transforms from O(N^2) to O(N log N). Quicksort (published 1961) might be another example, but since sorts in the 1950s usually ran on tape drives, it's hard to compare.

On the whole, computers of the 1950s were extremely memory-limited, so many modern algorithms aren't entirely relevant. For example, the IBM 7090 (1959) was a large-scale scientific computer and had an address space of 32K words. As for performance, it did 39,500 multiplications per second. A modern supercomputer is trillions of times faster; that makes up for a lot of bad algorithms.

Most modern problems are going to have a hard time fitting in a 1950s computer, regardless of the algorithm. On the whole, I think you'd be better off with 1950s algorithms on a modern computer than vice versa. On the other hand, modern cryptographic algorithms on old hardware would be infinitely better than old algorithms on modern hardware.

> if the research was published published ongoing

Are you aware that there are protocols in medical research against this?

Publishing research in an ongoing basis will taint the results (placebo effects etc).

There are blackout periods etc. just to make sure that the analysis is valid and not tainted.

Also a lot of research has lag time. Experiments can take a lot of time.

Quick Question: Why is self-hosted a thing that's highly desirable on HN?
We could do all the same things on the web, so long as the standards are open. But that's exactly the problem - lock-in is how social networks make profits, so the largest ones (where most people already are) are also the least likely to support anything like this.

Lots of modern mathematical texts define counting from 0, and it might be brought up because of the engineering context of indexing convention in a language that lets you flexibly define that.

What defines counting is an initial element, often called 0, and a successor function which constructs the next number. The question is why you're doing such a construction, and if you want an identity element for natural addition.

My take: Adding proportions is kinda "semantically incorrect". It's well defined as a value, it just doesn't mean what you think it means, akin to thinking that union of two sets is written A + B (which would be the set of pair-wise additions of elements). Now, dovetailing the equation with units that signify concrete quantities (as suggested by others) circumvents this by making it meaningful, at the cost of no longer working with the abstract concept of proportion.

An example of semantically meaningful manipulation of proportions is the weighted combination of proportions. This here's a more verbose version of what the teacher wrote: (3/6)* (1/3) + (3/6)*(1/3) = 1/3 (that is, the weighted average of the proportions give the final proportion)

Americans whose votes are counted in the current system have never changed that.

See e.g. https://www.johndcook.com/blog/2015/12/08/algorithms-vs-moor... — “a benchmark production planning model solved using linear programming would have taken 82 years to solve in 1988 […] in 2003 this same model could be solved in roughly 1 minute […] a factor of roughly 1,000 was due to increased processor speed, whereas a factor of roughly 43,000 was due to improvements in algorithms”
I agree with Denise. High-performing teams are high-performing primarily because they communicate openly with each other, during good times and bad, and their leads are really good about keeping them away from political bullshit without sacrificing velocity. They also encourage learning and have the autonomy and authority to fix things when they are broken even if that means stopping a release.

In cultures where mistakes are forbidden, features are currency, and development is just a step ladder into management, (I.e. a large swath of enterprises) instituting the foundations of high-performing teams is insanely hard to do. It usually takes an executive willing to put their career on the line to try and change things.
"our economy has weathered this better than anywhere in the world, and we will likely come out of this crisis even stronger, with even more global power, than we went in" - I can't read your entire paywalled off article, but I think the US' response of basically ignoring the plight of unemployed workers and only nominally trying to save small businesses ... vs the European model of giving aid to employers and cover a fraction of employees salary as long as they don't lay off workers, is obviously going to give the European countries a head start on recovery.

> Don't you want to learn about sale for new tech gadgets? Discounts for AWS? Good rent deals?

Sure. The thing is: when people are interested in something, they look for it. When I want to buy some games, I open my PS4's store. Any advertising I get there is absolutely fine because I asked for it. I told the software to show me the stuff that's available for me to buy.

The problem is when I open a link to some web page and 80% of my phone's screen turns into advertising noise I didn't ask for and couldn't care less about. I make it a point to delete this noise.
Small clarification: I'm assuming that shareholder obligation is the predominant force upon corporate governance, not the only one.

But, point taken.
I'm not sure about that. It's pretty common knowledge that YouTube isn't the endgame for a lot of content creators. If instead, YouTube supported their users more (especially the larger ones) they would have potential to be in the loop for other services like livestreaming, merch, and donations instead of having creators resort to using services like Twitch, Squarespace, and Patreon.
