...2GB RAM is a bit of a disappointment for those of us spoiled by higher end devices (like my Note 10+ w/ Dex), BUT - there is room to expand with some kinda SD and then map a bunch of SWAP space to it, right?

Won't a generous allocation of swap compensate?

Very cool business model! How long have you been at it? I've been pushing for a while (unsuccessfully, so far) for the NIH to cultivate a team providing such a service to our many biomedical imaging labs. It seems pretty clear to me that this sort of AI hub model is going to win out in at least the medium term versus spending money on lots of small redundant AI teams each dedicated to a single project. What sort of application sectors have you found success with?
There's nothing wrong with my Jeep, it just has the older V6 engine that is notorious for being underpowered.
I consider Perl to be a “write-only” language. Damn good text processor, though. I wrote an entire CMS in Perl, back in the late 90s.

I still wake up, screaming...

Swift isn’t any worse than most modern languages, when it comes to text processing, but that’s not what I use it for.

In fact, it has some very powerful string handling, built-in, but it’s kind of weird, if you are used to more traditional languages.
You can't really download games from PSN at anywhere close to that speed anyway. I have a hardwired gigabit connection to my PS4 and I'm lucky to hit 100Mb download. It's a similar story with Steam, when the stars align it might hit 500Mb for a minute right before finishing, but it usually hovers around 100-200Mb too. It's also much faster than the speeds of rotational hard drives, so unless you keep HD video on SSDs, it's no good for that either.

Beyond speedtests, the only way I can realistically saturate my internet connection is through S3.
This is such an accurate and profound statement.

And now that I think about it, one trait that I’ve witnessed in CEOs and successful entrepreneurs again and again is an almost inhuman ease with initiating and engaging in uncomfortable conversations. They don’t hesitate with them either.

I always assumed it was just something they all naturally develop as a consequence of being bombarded and put upon constantly, but maybe there’s more to it than that.
I was explicitly not taking a position on the action itself. I’m honestly interested to see how this might open a company to litigation.
Please influence the board to stop caving into censorship and let Reddit return to its free thinking roots. As ever expansive “hate speech” policies take root, the website is being co-opted to reflect just one worldview - that of the progressive left. This is dangerous and unwelcoming.
I suspect if they had a situation like GCC where the programmer had to annotate the side effects of every assembly snippet, it would have been easier for them to add it elsewhere.

But the way they had it, they presented a seamless blend of assembly instructions and any C identifier, in or out, and I guess the compiler would need to parse out any side effects and cope with them. My guess is they looked at porting all that to ia64 [which they supported until Server 2008 R2], amd64 and ARM and balked.

No idea if they ever had it on some of the old architectures they supported in NT4 days or on CE (alpha, mips, ppc).
If you lead a team building a facial recognition project, and you either elect not to run/look at experiments on skin color, or you ignore your findings on skin color, and decide to sell that product to people with the express and upfront intention of using it to target the use of government-sanctioned force against individuals, there's no such thing as an "honest oversight." You have actively made a decision to endanger lives. Hanlon's Razor (which I think you mean rather than Poe's Law) doesn't apply when you know you're giving violent people a force multiplier.

If that were true, then cognitive behavior therapy and meditation would have no effect. It's more likely a feedback loop between introspection and the neural network. Sometimes you need the slow, deliberate planning that comes with conscious thought.

Oral History of Mike Markkula
Your first comment said "being under the speed limit gives him the right to make the stop". Here you've followed up with "if there is a minimum and you are under it that is a violation". I agree with the latter statement, but being under the maximum is not a violation, and it was never stated that the driver was going under a minimum posted speed limit. The post you were replying to says they were doing 65 in a 70, which seems highly unlikely to be under the minimum - what would the minimum be in that case, 67? (Assuming good intent, perhaps this derives from yoir misreading of the post you originally replied to, or from some other factor I'm missing.)
> What matters now is impact, not intent. If excessive police stops disproportionately affect black drivers those stops are racist, and the people performing the stops are racist.

I'm not quite sure how I feel about this. Impact can reveal underlying issues but is not necessarily racist in and of itself.

Consider the policy of "draw 100,000 names out of a hat and search those people for drugs". It is very unlikely that the demographic of those arrested as a result perfectly matches the demographic of the nation as a while, but I think it is hard to argue discrimination or prejudice here, because there is not even an opportunity for a human to have exercised discrimination.

Fishing stops like the OP posted try to be like this policy - a random dragnet. The issue, of course, is that the randomness is implemented by a racist police force. Black people are "randomly" stopped disproportionately, and treated harsher during the stop. So the disproportionate result is plausibly explained by racist intent.

BS. the passive aggressive argument used to undermine efforts to build more representative colleges, companies, and institutions is just a subtle form of racism that doesn't get applied to white people. I don't really see people make the same argument about hiring legacy applicants, college friends, or former coworkers, all of which tend to be similar people demographics. Sure maybe it isn't explicit racial bias but if the decision maker is selecting from a pool of already racially filtered candidates the effect is the same.

So yes, it is about Michael because he has to deal with this crap of people "just asking the question".
I’m pretty sure it’s the other way around:

Severity is the same for both genders (those that have it, feel it with similar enough degree and frequency), but in equal sized groups of men and women, there are more women who exhibit it.
This is one show where I believe most agree the US remake is superior. Character development gives the US edition far more depth at the expense of trading off a little subtlety. Gervais masters cringe to the point of extreme viewer discomfort. Opinions vary, of course.
That makes sense, a couple of years ago there was a lot of misleading interpretations going around, precise definitions help clear things up. I read Peak a while back, and I must’ve forgot that distinction.

I found the Klein book you mentioned more useful than Ericsson’s as well, that Fadde/Klein paper I mentioned was also pretty helpful. I need to reread both, and put them into practice more than I have. I read too much, and I don’t get the tacit knowledge that comes from experience...

Another good book is Surpassing Ourselves by Bereiter and Scardamalia. They studied how students developed writing skill. Their definition of expertise is a bit different than Ericsson’s, but I think it is more useful.
It’s kind of hard to argue that excluding candidates based on the color of their skin isn’t discrimination. Keep in mind that black folks aren’t the only minority in the US. All the rest just got a giant middle finger.

Now you can rationalize it by saying that this was bringing some balance the representation on the board, which is also true. That’s fair. But it’s still discrimination.
Agreed, but you'd be surprised how many people will blow $10-15 on one drink but balk at the idea of paying for something they use for hours every month.
"It pastes powder"? (So says Google Translate.)

I presume that's not the meaning. But what is?
Reddit is smarter than digg though - they know they need to keep their legacy and leader users happy - because once influencers (real ones, not Instagram users) leave the site will stop being culturally relevant.

The fact they’ve kept the old site still running for so long (4 years now?) I think it evidence they’ll keep it around. I don’t think it’s costing them anything.
Capitalism seems like it could do an OK job if we priced in more externalities like resource extraction (e.g. fee for taking oil out of the ground) and pollution.
No one personally liked the Nazis, and the World dealt with it. Now it's the time. Yes, CCP === Nazis
Keep in mind the ACLU has a lot of local affiliates. All to often national orgs absorb the fundraising, while local chapters languish.
So where is the problem? It isn't costing you anything - even in the most liberal sense - ie privacy/time etc.
Tacit knowledge sounds like an untestable phenomenon, and simply lacking the words to describe certain neuromotor techniques doesn't mean that it cannot be communicated explicitly in theory. Perhaps in the future we'll have a way to stimulate the brain in exactly the right way in order to communicate how to keep your balance on (aka "ride") a bike.

Furthermore, articles that downplay the importance of practice, to me, seem like a bad idea. In my experience, people who claim a high level of general comprehension (but not technical) tend to lack the ability to implement any facet of their "tacit knowledge" at even a basic level.
Yeah, I asked my girlfriend some question about reddit, and she said "I don't know, I just use the app."
If officers had to go to jail when their corporations committed crimes then you'd never be able to get competent capitalists to run them. Society and the stockholders would suffer.
Being a republican, I'm scared of the leadership choices social platforms are making. Michael Seibel is a pro-Democrat and anti republican and anti-Trump.

For god sake, allow reddit to have free-speech and don't censor the voices of "silent majority" in the USA.

P.S 60M American citizens voted for Trump.
I didn't dig too deeply into the code itself and the logic flows, but at a very high level I could start with some project organization feedback that might make your life easier down the road:

- You don't have to use a Navigation Component in order to use Fragments. You can still use a single-activity model that just manually calls the fragment manager to make fragment transactions if your app is simple enough to not require a full Navigation graph. The overall reduction in complexity with single-activity are still very worth it, imo. Much easier to attach interfaces than deal with activity results and scene transitions if you don't need to.

- You don't have to just have one "app" module in your project. You don't even have to call it "app." You can rename the module to whatever you want, like "wood-client" or something more informative than "app." You could create a second module called "wood-data", and then have all of your data classes defined in separate files in a "model" package. I don't see much reason to pack all your data classes into one file. Android Studio is a fully fledged IDE built on IntelliJ IDEA with things like shift-shift search, and ctrl+o. no reason to compact things into one file.

- Speaking of packages, you should think better about your package naming scheme. "com.example.woodinvoicetest" is messy to call it "example," and confusing to call it "<something>test" when it's not actually a test code package. A simple starting point could be something like "com.woodinvoice.client," "com.woodinvoice.common," "com.woodinvoice.data," etc.

- Don't worry about download size right now unless you are packaging a lot of graphics content into your APK, like bitmaps and large icons or something. This is a problem for future you to deal with, honestly. You don't have enough workflows yet to worry about app size. You're not building a social/consumer app, so user dropoff for a long download time doesn't mean anything to you right now.

I would guess a surprisingly small subset of the users, and a surprisingly large subset of the Youtube developers.
A few months ago, the NYT published an op-ed from the leader of the Taliban. In 1941, they dedicated a full page to an excerpt of Mein Kampf. How is it consistent to give them a voice on the pages of the paper, but to deny the same privilege to a sitting US senator?

It’s an opinion section, and labeled as such. The NYT explicitly does not endorse its content, nor do they designate it as “factual“ reporting. The idea that reporters revolted and the editor of it resigned because a mob disagreed with an opinion in it, seems farcical given that the purpose of such a section is to present opinions opposite those of the editorial board (literally, op-ed).

If it’s full of “factual errors and flimsy premises,” surely NYT readers are smart enough to decide that for themselves. If not, surely the NYT can solicit an opinion from an opposing viewpoint to rebut those “errors.”

It’s not like he is some radical with no voice; he’s an elected senator, and could choose to publish in any number of periodicals. The NYT isn’t “giving him a voice”; he already has one.

I don't have enough data to say either way. My upbringing prevents me from talking about money on a personal level with friends or colleagues.

I assume my colleagues are capable of managing their finances wisely. I could be wrong.

In any event, I'm not sure a tax strategy discussion is enough to make an overarching conclusion from about someone's financial competency (or, for that matter, an entire group of people's). You can suck at tax optimization strategies without being a reckless overspender.

I think we can safely say that Reddit content is organized in a way that should be conducive to deep linking (each post and comment thread has a unique and permanent URL). Their deep links generally work well for me though, unlike some other apps.

I once had to implement deep links for a React Native app and, while I’m by no means a great mobile dev there were plenty of thorny bits. For example, I think iOS doesn’t open a deep link in app if you type the url directly into the address bar. It will only open in the app if the user taps a link. Another complexity is making sure a deep link opens in the app for app users and opens the App Store for other users.

iOS also has two different systems for deep linking, custom protocols (eg myapp://) and universal links (a server side manifest that you register with Apple). These each have their pros and cons.

To be sure, those should be solvable problems for a company with even a fraction of Reddit’s resources.
How do you sync music to it?
It feels as though there is a poor product manager or someone over there whose bonus depends on getting as many users off the mobile web and into the app as possible--whether the users actually want to or not. In a past life as a product manager, I've had the "make users do this thing they don't want to do" job and it truly sucks.
It's a theoretical distinction much more than a practical one.

So there is a difference, but I don't think it's 'vast'.

You seem to be committing the same error I called out in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23475012, although far less egregiously: advocating a form of moral relativism almost everyone would reject, while urging people to take some actions and not others based on normative arguments. If you applied the same reasoning consistently, you would end up saying, "Some people would call an action unethical despite the potential of offending the actor, and although thus speaking out is also a valid ethical choice, it's not the only ethical choice." Unless you're making some kind of fine distinction between classes of undesirable acts that I'm missing?

I actually didn't even mention bots, although social media bots are part of it (in terms of posting things). I think it's mostly real people working for Russia and China, stirring up other people who are not. Social media is a huge echo chamber.

As far as NYT and WaPo, they are not "fake news" in the sense I was talking about. Nor is Fox, Breitbart, OANN etc. I'm talking about sites that are set up for people to imitate news organizations and spread made up but super polarizing content, often about race, religion, abortion, guns, immigration -- anything that divides people. That content then pings around on social media and helps amps up the polarization to incredible levels.
