Not the one you're replying to, but there are a few points:

- This flow applies more for a service or a website, where there is no problem of distribution: the distribution is done the moment your user reaches your website/service.

- In the case of a website there is one website. In the case of services there may be multiple versions, but they exist together in the same file tree. Fixing an issue on an old version means fixing the issue on specific files; when they're pushed on master the users will get the fix

- An alternative flow of having to manage multiple versions in parallel is to use feature-flags to compartmentalize sections of code that aren't tested yet or not even functional yet. That way you can have everything on a single branch and make all the code aware of each other. Feature flags can be activated gradually in qa environment, then in staging, then in some customers only, etc... to iron out the bugs as deployment goes. Note that this way of doing is also adapted for traditional installable software, see Firefox and Chrome and their myriads of activation flags.

Right. It’s frustrating. I’m not under NDA with them but I don’t want to get anyone into trouble, but even if I did name names I don’t think anyone would back it up.

This is why we need more publicity-visible Haskell success stories.

They were only full to keep other hospitals free and less contaminated. The overall additional capacity was hardly used.

I’m also saying something different: we should have quarantined to the lowest possible degree that kept the hospitals reasonably utilized. We need infections. We just don’t want to overload NHS. I’m glad we built new capacity. I’m frustrated we didn’t use it...and now a big second wave is likely.
Jack Dorsey’s Square accused of withholding retailers’ funds
Well, here in germany it definitely is a crime to be member of a criminal or terroristic organisation (§ 129) and I am pretty sure in the US its the same.

And it makes sense. The concept is valid, if you knowingly support criminal activity, which you do by associating with them, you are guilty (by varying degree). Mere familiy members of the mafia in italy for example will usually not being prosecuted, even though they are part of it.

What you mean with guilt by association, is when the nazis for example enprisoned whole families, because one member was part of the resistance. And from the point of view of the Nazis this also makes sense. Because family members do support each other and are close(in ideology), so one enemy in a group means, there are probably more and if not, then it is an example for others not to help anyone resisting even if it is your brother and rather stop or support them.

So the problem with guilt by association to me is not the concept, but how it is applied.

The cruel, despotic government is the problem in the first place, not the tactics they use.

And this concrete case here is about supporting authorian, cruel governments, by (indirectly) working for them.

And I am free to despise and avoid people by my own standards, no matter that they are within the borders of the law.
'Predictive' is just a glorified word for 'correlating'. Staring at a bunch of correlations only gets you so far and doing only that certainly isn't science. If you have no idea how genes work you're going to be dismayed when all your fancy correlations don't work anymore, as people gathering genomic data from outside the European biobanks are starting to find out.
Something I've recently realised after having listened to Kevlin Henney talk
about software engineering is how much of the existing knowledge we ignore. The
early software engineers in the '60s and '70s were discovering pattern after
pattern of useful design activities to make software more reliable and modular.
Some of this work is really rigorous and well-reasoned.

This is knowledge most engineers I've met completely ignore in favour of the
superstitions, personal opinions, and catchy slogans that came out of the '90s
and '00s. It's common to dismiss the early software engineering approaches with
"waterfall does not work" – as if the people in the '60s didn't already know
that?! Rest assured, the published software engineers of the '60s were as strong
proponents of agile as anyone is today.

Read this early stuff.

Read the reports on the NATO software engineering conferences.

Read the papers by David Parnas on software modularity and designing for
extension and contraction.

Read more written by Ward Cunningham, Alan Perlis, Edsger Dijkstra, Douglas
McIlroy, Brian Randell, Peter Naur.

To some extent, we already know how to write software well. There's just nobody
teaching this knowledge – you have to seek it yourself.
People without symptoms are also much less likely to spread.

I'll chime in, I did my thesis in MATLAB (specifically ML for MRI): While matlab itself wasn't the most fun to work with, they honestly have built a fantastic suite of tools. For example the Classifier App is amazing for brute forcing through a bunch of stuff.

Even went through a couple of hackathons with it and got some SoTA results.

I wouldn't ever go back to it, especially outside of academia. But it's not the worst thing out there.
I agree, holding up GWAS as some kind of lesson about scientific progress seems pretty silly. I don't think the 'sober experts' deserve shame and humiliation considering that PGSes have had minimal impact on human health.
Comparing cars and bikes like this is pretty worthless, they're not meant to replace each other but to supplement each other. You don't go on a family road trip by bike, and you don't need to go shopping for toothpaste by car. And you certainly shouldn't use the bike to carry furniture hanging out like that.

On the other hand an $8000 bike, while it may work just fine for OP, is absolutely insane for most people out there. You can get the same functionality out of a <$2000 bike. Regardless, the way OP is using it is neither safe, not legal. I hope it was done just for the photo op and some Twitter likes but I would hate to be around that bike when one of those chairs fall off, or a gust of wind catches the payload like a sail, or simply ride past it and be forced to move further into the traffic or pedestrian lanes to go around Oversized Load here...

Misinformation, again.

uBO prevents DNS requests from being made in the first place for requests which are meant to be blocked. This way the browser will know faster that a network request is meant to be blocked, it does not have to wait for a DNS resolver to respond.

Additionally, as a result of being in-browser, uBO is also able to collapse the placeholder counterpart of any of network requests which were cancelled.

Never had a single encounter with the police in the US while I lived there.

I do agree that the US border is the toughest. I assume much of that is because of how many people try to illegally immigrate to America (and how hard it is to get them out once they're in)[0]. America is perhaps the only country where pretty much everybody coming in is a potential future illegal immigrant. Some of it is perhaps indeed unreasonable but in no way does it represent the experience you'll have IN the country.

But again, never had a bad experience with them. Always opt out of full body scanners and that has never been an issue. It just always feels much more crowded and slower than other places. That's my biggest complaint.

Many countries essentially have the police forces you listed but they may just be a department in some bigger organization. The American setup is just much more decentralized.

BTW China and Russia have perfectly boring borders. Yet inside of China I did have some not-so-pleasant encounters with the police just for failing to register my address with them. And again look at how the Chinese police is structured. It's pretty boring like most places, yet it TRULY is an authoritarian country.

[0] which again just proves how not-authoritarian America is.
It's not a AI bias problem, it's a dataset problem. The issue isn't the algorithm neither are they selling this as a de-facto accurate Business software. You can take it and train the neural nets with whatever dataset you like.

> Everyone in a civilised society has the right to a fair trial without the presumption of guilt.

In the case of criminal and civil proceedings, sure, but a boycott on my part is an application of my own moral compass, not of the law. I don't owe anyone a "fair trial" for the judgement that guides my own free actions.

If for any other reason than absolute necessity you work for an organization that serves authoritarian, anti-democratic regimes with tools designed specifically to implement policies to that end, I will think poorly of you for no other reason. I won't trust that you are able to make decent moral choices. I will base my own conduct on that judgement. My conduct insofar that it's clearly legal should not be the subject of a fair trial.
> The current best science answer to how many people remain susceptible to infection is "nobody really knows but our best guess is not to assume the best case without better evidence so act like the worst case".

Absolutely not. The scientific approach is to look at the new disease and see how it compares to other similar RTIs. For instance, covid19 was discovered around October at the start of the seasonal flu season in the northern hemisphere and it was a coronavirus, which makes it 95% likely to be strongly seasonal, highly infectious, and mild. It also should lead us to assume that exposure to prior viruses gives (some) protection, and that the elderly and immunocompromised are the most at risk. In addition, we know that diseases like this spread highly unevenly (powerlaw distribution) with a small number of big hotspots and many places that are left largely unaffected.

This is the BASELINE SCENARIO, based on the knowledge we have of hundreds of similar respiratory infections. Covid19 could be a different animal, but for that we'd have to carefully look at the data.

But what did we do? We took seriously the doom-saying of scientists that extrapolated from comically unrepresentative cruise ship data and other hot spots. This is junk science, because data from a hot spot doesn't say --anything-- about how infectious a hotspot disease is or how deadly, except that it's possible for people to die from it, but that's also entirely unsurprising for a RTI.

> At the peak of this epidemic in hard-hit places like the UK, something like only 1 in 400 people are known to have been infected at a time.

Impossible. Covid reached Europe by December, and has spread like wildfire since.

> Many younger people (as much as 70%) show absolutely no symptoms when they are infected.

Oh no, way more than 70%. How many kids got visible symptoms? Close to zero. And many got infected because the virus is absolutely everywhere. At least 70% of people in the 50-65 age group have no visible symptoms, so for young people the number must be drastically higher.

> The disease is astronomically worse for elderly people.

All cause mortality isn't high worldwide. We had two mild flu seasons in a row and that left us with many elderly with a negative life expectancy.
Highly dependent on how I got to the repo.

If I know what repo I want and am going directly to it, sure. If I'm looking at lots of repos that match a search (either on GH or somewhere else), say... looking for a library that does a thing and there are many choices, the first thing I'm going to look at probably isn't the readme. More important in those cases for filtering out the chaff are date of last commit and the issues board, looking for signs of life rather than signs of abandonment.
This is a great question/thought. I am really surprised at how people forget why laws, rules, policies and governance were put in place in the first place.

Rules/laws/policies are to prevent abuse/evil things and to serve people! RULES ARE ALWAYS MUTABLE and should punish abusers of law/rules/policies, NOT the people it is built to serve. Rules must/will change and they should always benefit people who are doing the right thing.

I will give a simple example on why we should go above the law and think a lot of things using basic common sense;

Recently our country introduced camera's on highways to avoid speeding. The govt is so rigid on the rule now that they have already fined people who were speeding in an event of emergency and even ambulances. And I read complains of these people on Facebook. Instead of the laws working to protect and serve, we see it happening the other way.

What we as a society lack is process/structure to handle the outstanding/exceptional scenarios. We need to build a system which tolerates outstanding/exceptional situations so that the system doesn't break down. But unfortunately, we don't tolerate any outstanding situations and it breaks down.

This organisation is doing bad things, and this is not the first or second time this has happened. So the whole world and especially the employees should definitely know what they are doing. They are engineers aren't they? So they are bound to be smarter than the average folks. There is no need for benefit of the doubt with them.

And let's starts acknowledging that many countries are still only in the drafting phase when it comes to dealing with most of the digital abuses, bad things. Most democratic systems are super slow when it comes to digital crimes and laws. So current laws are not sufficient and hence should not be used gauge the severity of the incidents the law cannot handle.

Also remember, Facebook started struggling a lot after the cambridge analytica scandal to hire, because people didn't want to affiliate with them. So this works. We should call them and the employees out for a better world. :)
first of all I would recommend to stay away from UML. It's a bloated tool. that don't translate to code.

for the design phase I think the C4model and a sequence diagram provide all the tools to think about your project.

in order to produce such diagrams you can use plantuml. Because that way you can store it with your code in git.

Elephant in the room: If every developing country goes through industrialization without external help, the planet is massively overpopulated if you look at resource consumption. To skip a step or tow in the "normal" development, we would need technology transfer on everything that restricts greenhouse gases.

We already could use a second planet:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_Overshoot_Day

I think the guess is a bit pessimistic but the trend is true.

You can argue all day which country is the worst offender, but that doesn't help. It is certainly not right to place restrictions on developing countries without help. Additionally to curbing your own output.
So far the best data we have shows that for people in their 60s covid-19 is killing them about ten years early.

See eg this from Economist: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2020/05/02/would-mo...

> “As most people dying with COVID-19 are older with underlying chronic conditions, some have speculated that the impact of the condition may have been overstated, and that the actual number of years of life lost as a result of COVID-19 are relatively low,” said Dr McAllister.

> “This new analysis found that death from COVID-19 results in over 10 years of life lost per person, even after taking account of the typical number and type of chronic conditions found in people dying of COVID-19. Among people dying of COVID-19, the number of years of life lost PER PERSON appear similar to diseases such as coronary heart disease. Information such as this is important to ensure governments and the public do not wrongly underestimate the effects of COVID-19 on individuals,” he added.

> Results: Using the standard WHO life tables, YLL per COVID-19 death was 14 for men and 12 for women. After adjustment for number and type of LTCs, the mean YLL was slightly lower, but remained high (13 and 11 years for men and women, respectively). The number and type of LTCs led to wide variability in the estimated YLL at a given age (e.g. at ≥80 years, YLL was >10 years for people with 0 LTCs, and <3 years for people with ≥6).

> Conclusions: Deaths from COVID-19 represent a substantial burden in terms of per-person YLL, more than a decade, even after adjusting for the typical number and type of LTCs found in people dying of COVID-19. The extent of multimorbidity heavily influences the estimated YLL at a given age. More comprehensive and standardised collection of data on LTCs is needed to better understand and quantify the global burden of COVID-19 and to guide policy-making and interventions.

I had access to the design by flipping a switch under the 'feature preview' section of my profile menu. Had a little notification blob prompting me to see what was in there.
1. Representation learning: Pick a pre-training/pre-text task for learning inherent representations in images that are not just low-level features. Here they use augmentations on images for such task to minimize the loss between real and augmented images. This forces the network to learn high-level features important for discrimination of these two images.

2. Self-clustering: Samples are drawn from neighborhood of embedded learned space to assign cluster labels. They push the network to make neighborhood samples to same cluster by including this in SCAN loss.

3. Fine tuning: Assign labels to clusters specific to your data.
One good user case doesn't justify selling this tool to autocratic and totalitarian countries, or countries involved in systematic oppression of minorities.
Yep, I think that’s (at least partially) true, even if it’s not explicitly acknowledged in the company. Same with Google and their endless new projects: what else would all those smart engineers do? Support existing projects? Yeah, let’s see how many of them won’t leave to build new things in some startup in a few months. It’s a balancing act on the part of any company employing creative people, I imagine.

I don’t think games are well adapted to open source. For starters, it’d be very hard to build an adjacent business like Red Hat, and there are very significant time and capital requirements even for smallish projects.

> The contract was being invalidated when he wrote invalid data to a register

This is similar to the "undocumented instructions" on many CPUs of the time. The Z-80 was famous for reacting to invalid opcodes in somewhat useful ways. The 6502 also reacted in weird ways to invalid opcodes, but I don't remember any useful behavior. When the 65C02 came out (//c and //e enhanced) all invalid opcodes mapped to NOPs.

The power cycle used here is quite an interesting one.

The heat from the compression cycle and cold from the expansion cycle are stored separately and re-used which substantially increases storage efficiency.

Waste heat from co-located industrial plants is used to further boost expansion performance. A lot of "low grade" industrial heat is available but when you're re-heating from cryogenic temperatures, 100 C is actually high grade heat.

I suspect that the time over which it's efficient to store is limited by losses from the temperature stores.
