In 1999 at the age of 18, just before going to University to study Software Engineering I spent all my savings from my first job on a Beige G3 233Mhz. The box was $3k, the 17 inch Apple/Sony Trinitron another $1500. Dad drove it home in his car that was worth less than the contents of the big cardboard boxes.

Sometimes it's fun to calculate how much I'd have if I spent those 1999 dollars on APPL.
It's almost certainly a case of planning driving demand. Rents in walkable neighborhoods are generally higher than car dependant ones, even though the walkable design makes more efficient use of land.
It's your phone. There's a zoom function. This is a very large book and a larger screen than a phone is needed.
> suicides and untreated medical conditions during social distancing and lockdowns can increase the number of deaths.

And why did we need social distancing and lockdowns? was it just to have people blow their heads off?
> This quote from the OP directly address that attitude

It doesn’t directly address it, the parent was talking about intention, the article is talking about outcome. Smooshing then together produces nonsense: “when someone wants to remove bias from data, they will fail to notice biased data”.

Surely it isn’t a given that someone trying to remove bias will believe that all bias has been removed?
I've used LP for 4 years and can't recall things not working?
I’m getting a little exhausted with doom and gloom that fails to contextualize exactly how much worse things are than an abnormally bad flu season + pneumonia season. If you tell people that they will have lingering effects from a flu or cold, they are much more likely to report lingering effects. People are quite suggestible and medicine is complex.
I shudder for the future.
Purpose-built, small, and fast models appears to be the inevitable evolution for computer vision.

Where can the "Easy Set, "Medium Set, and "Hard Set" evaluations referenced in the "Wider Face Val" be found?
I believe this is exactly why pjreddie quit computer vision research. It must kill him to see such projects based off of his work.
That's what I thought: unable to engage on the substance of the nuance.
I am not fan of the Python but I recommend you stick to Python for your first steps. It has very good community lots of tutorials, books, etc and lots of packages. It is in general a good language for people that are new to programming. After you master Python you may pick other language.
This is very clever.
Last time i ran benchmarks (several years ago), UNIX domain sockets were twice as fast as IP sockets so that's another reason to use them.

Hey sorry late response, yes it is the project.

I don't have it written anywhere publicly. In the immediate I'm focused on solidifying the foundational conversation features, which center around fast, open, low-friction live conversation. It should be possible to take advantage of the live nature of it with features like alternate conversation modes, branching, and other ways to signal feedback to users that are engaging. The ranking algo uses chat activity and other data points instead of using voting. Anyways, I'm hoping to engage with others interested in such things to see what types of ideas could work in a new site like this!
Ask HN: Getting New Business
I have some experience with a large company's totally inadequate search solution, and would like to put myself forward as the person to fix it.

The way I would think to do it is to write a large proposal, going into depth how the current solution is bad and how it should be improved.

But of course this is also a lot of unpaid work, preferably I would like to get paid for it, but my experience is in having companies ask me to build things, not suggesting to companies what I should build for them.

The company under question is also very compartmentalized/arranged under sort of feudal lines, I have some connections in the company but not in the area that needs to be improved so I wonder if my best entry should be to contact someone at the top of the organization and make my pitch.

Suggestions on how to proceed appreciated.

It’s a half step between getting some Terminal functionality without necessarily having to be fluent in the Terminal. I think the idea is for it to be an option expanding choice without having to necessarily seek out a GUI that will provide an interface to all of the functionality you need. If something is missing, well the Terminal is right there.
or that many people who survive (including younger ones) will be disabled and unable to work
(updated the title)

It's interesting to see a hybrid of a console and a GUI. For me I can see usefulness beyond a man page or Google search to see what flags are available for a command and then select flags. Plus there's benefit for users who are new to a terminal. I think we'll see more terminal/GUI hybrids like this (the Darklang "canvas" is an example).
Imagine an app like Pokémon VR but instead of virtual pocket monsters it targets members of <outgroup> whose faces are detected by cadre smart phones, then tracked, flash mobbed and dealt with, for the crime of making members of <ingroup> feel unsafe.

Watching leadership supine and carefully uncritical of burning, looting mobs offers little confidence that they will stand in the way of this. After all only <outgroup epithet>s have anything to fear.

Please tell me why this is an unlikely scenario.

What a house of cards the U.S. economy is. I am truly worried wondering when the other shoe is going to drop.
Generally people accomplish goals by presenting intellectual arguments why the goals are good and should be worked towards. Engaging in power struggles to impose one's view by force is certainly an option that exists, but it's generally seen as toxic behavior and I do not think we should encourage it.
Huh? When the gov't forces employees to stay home that's not a problem with the economic system.

That's like throwing all doctors in jail and saying there is something wrong with our medical system because it not longer works.
A first time parent typically has no prior experience with being a parent, so it'd be pretty surprising if it didn't take more time than "needed". With the second child they have a better idea of what to do and can be more efficient, but hopefully have to split their time between two kids.

> A real mask acually protects the person using it.

Specialized medical masks and careful usage can, yes. But even a cloth mask provides some benefit, and much of the benefit is to others: your mask reduces the likelihood of your infecting others, their mask reduces the likelihood of them infecting you. There have been multiple analyses showing that non-specialized masks (e.g. cloth) provide some benefit, even though they're not a complete substitute for medical masks.

For some strange reason, this particular family of misinformation seems to have become both political and conspiracy-adjacent; it shouldn't be. There is little to no value in replaying the same arguments here, nor any value in a prolonged repetitive thread. It really shouldn't be necessary to have mandates to do things that ought to be common sense and basic decency, but such is the current state of the world, even when there's plenty of data to demonstrate the problem.

> This viral class never goes away.

https://ncase.me/covid-19/ - There are many things we can and should do, simultaneously, in a coordinated concerted way, to reduce impact, save lives, and put us on a path to eradicating it.

https://twitter.com/ASlavitt/status/1280283199445311488

There's plenty more where those came from. There's valid reason to speculate how long this will take, and we should certainly plan for many scenarios including the worst. But there's no supporting evidence for such a confident assumption of "never", and even if that were true it still wouldn't justify blithely risking other people's lives.

> why not use a mask desinged for viruses instead of making medical decisions for other people

There aren't enough, they require a professional level of skill to use correctly, and in case you haven't seen pictures and videos of people using them, they're multi-layer armor, not just a simple mask. Also, the operative thing being protected against is droplets that carry the virus, not just the virus itself. See also secondhand smoke, vaccination, and other ways in which people are required to put up with minor inconveniences to protect the lives of others. And you absolutely have an option if you don't wear a mask: stay home. If you can't afford or find a mask, there are numerous people and places generously arranging to ensure everyone has access to some. Work towards a solution, rather than arguing why you should be able to be part of the problem.
I mean, is there an objective understanding of hate? Of love? Of porn, of art, of dangerous speech, of democracy, or capitalism? There's objective elements, sure, but AFAIK the only things with complete objective definitions are those defined in code, as they have a complete definition that doesn't require (additional) human subjectivity. Whether those definitions are correct is an question on top of that.

Poetic indulgence aside, any understanding is going to complex (made up of multiple component concepts, which are likely to be complex themselves) and nuanced (without clean, precise English definitions). Some elements will be more objective, others more subjective. It's the world, it's messy, that's how there's things.

Yadda yadda, I suspect we'll get a more "objective" understanding as fairness research in neural nets continues (it's super cool and you should go check it out).

Isn't everyone's authority ultimately themselves? You either hold it yourself, or
choose to invest it (whole cloth or piece wise) in something or someone else; either way, the first and last decision is yours.

That all said, there's pretty clearly a set of observed experiences (from slavery to George Floyd to red line districts and food deserts) and a theory to explain those observations (racism; personal, structural and systemic).
> youtubes competitive advantage is search

How? YouTube videos aren't all that prominent on Google and its search features are rather terrible.

What they do have is a semi working recommendations system. How hard would that be to replicate?
If you offer a way to fix something, you need to have the position in order to re-allocate time/resources to doing so, otherwise your attempt will be unpaid.

Try to convince the people that have this power, and then leave it up to the organization. With the best intentions, some companies will not change due to ignorance, fear, resources or culture.
You don't look like you would enjoy Go.
Would that not be based on the fact that, that content is somehow generating less revenue?

Or you believe there is a more sinister reason?
What are these lessons?
The very next sentence is:

> Our network emphasizes listening to those who are marginalized and impacted by AI, and advocating for anti-oppressive technologies.

So do you disagree with the idea that power is problematically unevenly distributed, and disagree that listening to the marginalized and being anti-oppression is good?

If not, and you merely disagree with being explicit about the politics of technology, why? The status-quo politics of AI is "how can we make lots and lots of money from this?". Challenging that politics is good, even if you agree with amoral capital accumulation.
People are free to circulate petitions, including those making demands about someone's Linguistic Society status. People are not required to express only opinions you approve of. Though, of course, you're free to circulate a counter-petition against them!

What's less free is threatening to use a billion dollar fortune to file a defamation lawsuit against someone for expressing an opinion on Twitter, which at least one of the signatories did.
The only two things exceedingly terrible about og warcraft was the walking speed and the road system...well i guess too, the races were basically identical, way too many underground missions that sucked hardvand generally it lacked manybthings...

But, i dunno, it was the first rts i'd ever played and the first game i got to go to the computer store and pick out. I spent the whole drive back just reading the book over and over again. It'll always have a small special place.
Given that the service seems to be aimed at developers, I don't see it as being an option for people who aren't "fluent in the Terminal". I don't see any commands they support that necessarily have to be done in the terminal, either, since such things as git, ffmpeg, psql etc have great GUIs available for nearly all use cases. If you're not a developer, you're better off downloading specific apps instead of using fig, and if you're a developer, I don't see how fig helps you over binding your own aliases or writing scripts for specific tasks.
If anything, the metric would be number of deaths per population.
Hey it is a good thing that a grassroots, poor NGO like Stanford University get more power.
In Clojure land, equal but not identical? symbols don't cause any issues; they can be used interchangeably as map keys, etc. It won't impact code correctness, just potentially cause slowdowns.

With that said, I always thought symbols would intern, but that's not the case. It is true with keywords, however.

(identical? (clojure.edn/read-string "x") 'x) => false

(= (clojure.edn/read-string "x") 'x) => true

(identical? (clojure.edn/read-string ":x") :x) => true

Yes they're wonderful to have, don't get me wrong! They're general-purpose and robust! But they're also insufficient for a lot of needs. One thing that comes up for me a lot is a lack of static-allocated structures, and sometimes there are optimizations that can be made by sacrificing certain functionality.
Agreed. I also value the industry experience more ... I can remember a couple of years ago Stanford faculty complaining at a conference social that they cannot find good candidates for academic positions as Google and Facebook will hire them.
Sweden hasnt any had any hospitals overwhelmed. they're just front loading the deaths that every single other country is going to have but is just delaying.

Do you think Corona is going anywhere?
The thing I miss the most about working in an office is my walking commute. Walking 1.75 miles each way to and from work was a great way for me to clear my head and recenter myself on what I need to get done—or set that aside so I could be present at home.

I look forward to returning to this routine post-COVID. In the mean time, I've taken up running. It's better in some ways and worse in others. I expect I'll keep running post-COVID, and just layer the walking on top of that.
Could it be that _advertisers_ do not want their ads shown next to LGBTQ+ content? For the same reason why men don't see ads for high heel shoes and facial creams, and women don't see ads for Cialis. If that's the case, you'll need to take it up with advertisers, not Google.

If you want to make a clearer example, here's one: Google's ad classifiers used to almost always classify you as a man if you frequent engineering websites, much to the chagrin of many female engineers working at Google.

I don't know if that's still the case, as I'm not a woman myself.
Are you implying that the various Christian religions do not believe the Bible is 100% true?
If so, how do they decide which parts aren’t and which parts are?

When I google, I find various resources from Catholic and Evangelical groups that say the Bible is 100% true.
"The state of Florida has had 82,397 people 34 & under test positive for the coronavirus. Of that number, 28 have died. That’s a coronavirus death rate of .00034. They’ve had 144,210 54 and under test positive. That’s a .0016 death rate." [1]

If we read the same article, nowhere is there a suggestion of "[imposing] one's view by force".

Your comment seems to suggest otherwise.
Your conservative obsession with hierarchies are making you project the importance of those onto the BLM mass movement. It doesn't make them valid though. Your entire position seems to be: "BLM is fine and all, as long as they don't criticize capitalism or have any aspirations towards significant criticism of the current status quo". That's just pseudo-progressiveness, "I'm with you as long as it doesn't remotely threaten my current privileges".
Wow, so interesting. I go to school in the northeast. I'll have to ask around.
I disagree that this is the status-quo politics. The vast majority of AI research papers don't discuss making lots of money at all.
Cool idea. What's the thinking behind the 'per day' billing? I've never seen this before.
The thinking is that it keeps out poor people and people of color.

“There is this perception… that if we have sidewalks, we’re going to bring people who do not belong to our neighborhoods,” she says. In the post-World War II era, many Americans left the cities to live in suburbs with big garages and, just as important, people who weren’t white and middle class like them.

Haha, I'd be more nostalgic if I hadn't bought a 68000-based Mac just before the announcement that Apple was transitioning away from Motorola in the 90’s. Same baloney about releasing additional (Motorola-then / Intel-now) models during the transition. It very quickly became an expensive boat-anchor. I think I was still paying on the loan I'd gotten it since I was a poor college student working auto repair to make ends meet.

I'm excited about the move to the new processor. Also super glad my 2013 MBP has had a good run. It's still totally adequate. 'Course that's a problem isn't it?

It'll be interesting to see how the year turns out for Apple - seems like you'd be nuts to buy an Intel Mac now, right?
I agree with you that Python lacks many useful and advanced features. But that lack of advanced features give it simplicity and because of it much more programmers than for much advanced languages. Many programmers means more packages, more tutorials and bigger community. That is why hard to beat Python, because it's downside (simplicity) give it substantial advantage over more advanced languages.
Advantages of Pure Immunity Blend Oil
We realize that there are numerous elements that can adversely affect the insusceptible framework. Horrible eating routine, absence of value rest and exercise, poison presentation, and stress would all be able to negatively affect our insusceptibility and wellbeing when all is said in done. That is the reason it's critical to ensure we're doing everything we can to help resistance. Basic oils can be particularly useful for the safe framework because of their antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties. Not exclusively would they be able to help in fending off a wide scope of pathogens, however they can invigorate the resistant framework too. So next time your invulnerable framework endures a shot, you should consider adding basic oils to your insusceptible boosting schedule.

Even with this one there's some metadata you can set to force it to use rosetta 2 or not. I don't know if there's a way you as the user can force it the other way without hacking the kernel.
>So do you disagree with the idea that power is problematically unevenly distributed, and disagree that listening to the marginalized and being anti-oppression is good?

None of this is science. Science does not and can not make value judgements; it cannot say that any distribution of anything is "bad", it cannot say that any particular outcome is good or bad. This has been known for over two thousand years, as the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regress_argument (mentioned by Sextus Empiricus, the father of empiricism). Moral judgements are the realm of politics and philosophy, and there are plenty of journals dedicated to that. Nature is supposed to be dedicated to science.
