Reliability comes from pretty well known manufacturing principles at this point. Things like six sigma, continuous improvement, and the Toyota Production System are taught at every B-school in the country for a reason. Tesla actively flaunts all of these.

We shouldn't act like producing cars in a tent will end up with anything better than Ukrainian build quality.
Sorry for such a late reply. For me the two biggest culprits are sulfites (increased sleep disturbances) and fructose (reduced deep sleep and more chaotic cycles).

What's weird about the fructose is I don't have the symptoms associated with such an intolerance; namely gas. Good news is that there is an enzyme (Fructaid) that helps mitigate it for me, so I don't have to completely cut it from my diet.

In the US, sulfites can be sneaky. Labels are required to list them if directly added to a product, but not for sulfite-containing ingredients sourced from a third-party. So the raisins in that trail mix very likely contain sulfites.

yeah, you can do single-label w/ snorkel, but not multi-label. Multi-label snorkel would be the killer feature bc making the negatives (ie for a softmax) is very hard especially when you work w/ user-interaction systems with an unknown negative distribution.
Consistency is a good thing, because it allows you to infer how something works based on what you already know. If you can't infer it then you have to go read the docs. That's more work you have to do.

There's clearly a trade-off between expressing a specific task as succinctly as possible and for our knowledge to be transferable between different tasks.

It is the job of a programming language to guarantee a minimum level of transferability while allowing maximum expressivity. To do that, it has to put restrictions on how the semantics of syntax can be redefined.

It's clearly an art to get that balance right. In my view, Swift hasn't got it right and is moving in the wrong direction.

This seems great in theory but how do you "verify" these types of domains without also instituting some kind of gatekeeping? What's stopping someone from setting up or putting together a "medical" domain where that domain promotes anti-vax ideals. All it takes is for the first person to get verified to hold that ideal and then gatekeep all the other approvals through that lens. Additionally, to use your example, someone could be verified in "academia" by submitting proof of identity or an academic paper but does that then mean that "academia" also needs sub-domains to prevent people like Ben Carson from being leaders in certain fields while also being, arguably, off the deep end in other areas? He's a well-respected doctor in a specific field but also completely ignorant in other medical fields.

I don't have a solution but am mostly just curious if this kind of platform is even possible with the number of people online now. It's not like the early days of the internet where there were technical challenges that you had to overcome to make your voice heard. Now, it's so easy to say whatever anyone wants but also so easy to take ownership of the platforms for people to say what's accurate. Case in point: There are 12 users that make up the moderators for something like the top 200 sub-reddits on Reddit where 80%+ of the userbase is.
I'd suspect it depends on what you're using it for - our instance of chat is primarily roughly themed chat rooms where we can talk about video games and bitch about python or rust or scala or home improvement projects or the news. It's very much so a modern day AOL chatroom experience, and that's by desire. We have discourse for things that make sense for deep threading, but for the most part everyone ignores it and just uses the chatrooms or the fairly effervescent threading in MM (that is basically the same as Slack's).

If you're looking for a more real-time mailing list type behavior though, then Slack or MM would be a terrible, terrible, terrible choice imo.

I don't know what constitutes an IDE. All I expect is syntax highlighting and fast code navigation that understands enough of the source language to mostly find what I mean.

Other than that merely saving a file should be enough to hot-reload whatever toolchain you're using and doesn't much depend on editor integration.

I live in Denver, I chose to live here, and I have much better opportunities than if I had stayed where I was before. I considered SF, and like the article suggests, that might have been a better career move.

If people want the best opportunity for their careers, they should move wherever that is. But not everyone is focused solely on making the most money, impact, or anything else that comes with a career. I moved here partially for my career, but also because I wanted to explore the outdoors, spend time outside in nature, take photos, and challenge myself physically while doing so. I don't think a big city would have provided that for me.

I lived in NYC for a short period while I worked in the banking industry. It was great for my career, but I wasn't happy. I figured the same thing would happen if I moved to SF. I don't like big cities, I like tech, and I like doing things outdoors for fun. Denver allowed me to do that. SLC and Montana also would have fit the bill, but my SO did not approve.

My point is that people should go where they think they will find happiness. What happiness means to each of us is different. But I can say that I am truly happy living where I do, and I don't ever plan on leaving the metro where I live now.

Edit: The author only took into account cost of living and career opportunities, but not the individual that was making the decision and what matters to them. Which seems a bit narrow minded to me.
That's very odd to me, I've never had that problem and don't see why it could be.

Everything in that list is MIT or Apache except the ancient version from 2012. The idea that releasing under MIT is bad would be news to users of Perl, Python, Ruby, etc.

After all, software patents aren't a big deal for most languages. Perhaps excepting Swift, where patents are somewhat of a problem - it's debatable whether a competing implementation would be legal due to Apple's patents:

Exactly. It's mostly people who are looking for trouble that cry police brutality. There were so many instances of people shoving their camera in a cop's face and get beaten. Why would you do that? There are a lot of dumb people who believe everything the media tells them to believe.

It does matter. Aesthetics do matter, but for a programming language, technical capabilites matter much more. The regular syntaxes of Lisp and TCL give it many powers not being present in languages with more "fancy" syntaxes.
Same here. Just the ability to overlay text in the corner of your vision would be life changing. Combined with a Bluetooth keyboard and an ssh app, this could easily become the most mobile development device ever made.

Google Glass made strides towards the “text in the corner of your vision,” but they focused too much on developing a brand instead of roping in 3rd party devs. They released (limited) SDKs eventually, but by that point it was too late.

I think they would have had far greater success if they had set up a dev relations team before shipping.

I agree, but in the specific case of Netflix, people are let go all the time, and managers have a lot of authority to make the decision to fire someone. Tenure doesn't matter, either -- you could work there for 6 years and end up getting fired when you get a new manager or the existing one decides you're phoning it in.
Recently hired as team lead/manager, team seems somewhat dysfunctional.
Even within Twitter there will be a vast difference. If a liberal quotes a conservative tweet in disapproval you will see replies from liberals also expressing disapproval. But if another conservative quotes the same tweet in approval, you’ll see a bunch of conservatives replying in approval. It would be incorrect to conclude either “everyone realized that tweet was terrible” and “everyone agreed with that tweet.”
"The Naked Ape: A Zoologist's Study of the Human Animal" by Desmond Morris. Some stuff might be outdated but it definitely helped build a healthy dose of skepticism towards fellow humans - and towards myself.

Ahh, is that why white people shielding black people stopped police attacks or why multiple journalists were shot in the eye with rubber bullets? Seems you've picked which side of justice will support.
Thanks Alex. I'm sure you can relate that when you have a an unbounded input distribution (like w/ user-interaction systems), defining that other class w/ current snorkel is difficult/impossible.
As another example: Agile dev team measuring velocity (story points per sprint) to predict how much work they can do in the future.

If velocity gets turned into a target, corners will be cut (less testing, poor code quality) in order to get those story points for that sprint. Code quality suffers and tech debt accumulates, reducing output down the road.

On the flip side, as time goes on teams could just progressively estimate a greater number of points to stories of similar difficulty during the planning process. So velocity goes up but actual deliverable features goes down or stays the same.
I've seen bumper stickers: "Don't believe everything that you think."
How about no? The cure to bad / fake speech is more speech. (which is exactly what happened here). There's little to prevent a newspaper or TV station from doctoring media, selectively quoting, or just making something up completely and claiming that Joe Biden or Donald Trump said it. Why should twitter be regulated when other operators of the press are not?
Yes, and China has started a program to make EUV patterning machines a few years ago. Time will tell if it will work, but I don't really see why it wouldn't, given enough time.

I believe—don't quote me on this, I haven't lived in a shoji-panel house either—you can't really get a "breeze" going through a shoji-panel house, in the sense of air pushing its way through the house (without opening the doors on the intake side and so negating the air-cleaning benefits); but what you can do is get air to pull through the house, which is sorta like a breeze. It's fresh air, rather than stagnant/humid air, but it won't dry your laundry.

I believe how this works, is that you wait for wind or sun to be hitting the house on one side, and then open the windows/doors on the opposite side of the house from the wind/sun. Then, either the vacuum created by the turbulence at the far side of the house (in the case of wind)—or the air-pressure difference between the hot and cool sides of the house (in the case of sun)—will create a low-air-pressure area on the outtake side, and so suck air out of the house through the outtake gap. There's then a pressure difference between the inside of the house and the high-air-pressure on the intake side; and since shoji is permeable, the house will suck air in through the shoji to balance the pressure difference.

Probably, in a modern house designed to take advantage of the same principle, you could avoid having to run around opening and closing doors, and instead passively automate this, by putting low-friction one-way valved vents on all exterior walls of the house. Then, no matter which way the air-pressure-gradient formed, the house would release air in some direction and then intake air from every other direction to fill it.

I believe this system falls down when the house is equally-lit (e.g. at noon) and the wind is stagnant (e.g. when you're in a high-pressure system.) But at that point, there's also no wind to blow dust in, so you may as well open all the doors and turn on a fan.

Also, rather than needing a passive environmental pressure difference, you could just run a blower fan that pushes air out of the house, e.g. an oven hood fan or bathroom vent fan. That'd also create an air-pressure difference with the power to suck air in through the shoji.

Apart from a user, I am also a contributor to the Zulip project, for the last ~7 months.

The community is very helpful and for getting started with open source development, I can't recommend a better place. You get really high quality code reviews, get to participate in meaningful discussions on features and the development goals of the project, and developers constantly share lots of knowledge in streams like #learning about software development, tech, git, best practices and so on.

Also, the documentation is very detailed and the codebase is very high quality. It's really easy to get started.

You can find the github org here: https://github.com/zulip
A big benefit of the organization provided by every message being in a topic is that it makes finding this more efficient. E.g. if you remember that Steve made a joke about donuts in the conversation, you can search for messages sent by Steve mentioning donuts, find the topic, and from there find the actual conversation. I do this to find months-old or years-old conversations several times a week.

If you're curious to hear more, https://monadical.com/posts/how-to-make-remote-work-part-two... talks about this idea in more detail.

I also highly recommend making use of Zulip permalinks to conversations in issue trackers and other resources -- my anecdotal sense is most projects using Zulip do that a lot (the Zulip development team certainly does). Certainly the main feedback we've gotten on the zulip.com domain transition is "Will my permalinks keep working???". (Yes, they will).

Yes. It can't be written off as "essentially" (pun intended) bad. It depends on the use - and as everything in social life, it's complicated.

The asynchronous version of Zulip is Zulip. :-)

A thing I really like about how Zulip works is that a conversation can happen asynchronously just like email, as well as synchronously. And the same conversation can shift smoothly from one to the other and back. I work on Zulip, and we basically don't use email at all - it's all either in Zulip or on a GitHub thread. (And the interesting discussions, I increasingly try to make sure to do on Zulip because GitHub is such a frustrating place to have a conversation.)
What free expression? Shoving a camera in a cop's face, encircling a cop's car and banging the windows? If you act like an asshole in the name of free expression, you will be treated like one. Cry as much as you want, it will never change as everyone has a short memory and will move on to the next outrage.

I'm curious about the 360 reviews. Where I work, peer feedback is solicited by your manager. So your manager can choose the people writing your feedback based on whether the manager wants to reward you or to screw you over. As a byproduct, your peers do not fear any repercussions for bad behavior if they have confidence that their manager has their back. So, for example, people have no qualms about sabotaging the work of other teams. Do the 360 reviews help with this problem?
If recording is violence, do I have the same rights as a civilian to respond?

Yeah, BUT this "nature of Open Source" is just a mere potentiality.

The fact that FOSS allows "any interested party can contribute" means nothing if there's no interested party with deep pockets (or time/skill to contribute).

Having never really heard of any of these people and just skimming DDG and Wikipedia, I think you're probably being a bit too reticent.

Eh, not really. According to this (https://www.omnicoreagency.com/twitter-statistics/), "There are 48.35 million monthly active Twitter users in the US."

That means the vast majority of Americans do not use Twitter.

And according to this (https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2019/04/24/sizing-up-tw...), about 80% of the tweets are made by 10% of the users, and most of them are disproportionately young Democrats.

So Twitter is an echochamber within an echochamber.

Were Biden's or Obama's accounts to be hacked, the only effect it would have would likely be with only the extreme fringe of the party. Most Democrats, and virtually all Republicans, would never see it.

I work at FB. Can't speak for other teams, but this does not match the culture I've seen in 3+ years. There is a tool to send thanks, but there are no expectations -- it's just a nice thing to see coworkers appreciate you. I've done reviews and never heard anyone mention the number of "thanks" their report has received.

The PSC cycle (bi-annual review) is stressful, which I think is where the "craziness" stems. OTOH, there's not much day to day oversight - employees have an insane amount of freedom - so these 2x / year reviews are the tradeoff. ICs have tons of freedom, then twice a year, have to stand account for how they spent the last 6 months, compared to what other people in the same role and at the same level have done. (It's not stack ranking, it's more like grading on a curve across very different exam questions.)

There are mechanisms to provide feedback more frequently than every 6 months. It's agreed that the manager failed at their job if an IC is surprised by how a review ends up.

(FB also has 360 reviews every 6 months, offset from PSC by 3 months. These are usually upward reviews, and they are taken very seriously. Results from these determine manager career progression, so it's a chance for ICs to have their voices really well heard.)

Gaming the stats does exist, just as it exists everywhere. I think this is probably the only part that I don't strongly disagree with. It's also a hard problem to solve, with significant tradeoffs for different approaches. (And might be the most interesting piece)
