Having been in the position with a single person under me before, the biggest challenge was that we had just enough work to do that it was too much for one person but not so much work that I could easily fill this other person's time. I am sure this was bittersweet especially for someone new to industry.
Hey how did you do those animations?
You do have to wonder, because as that section states, the BPEs may impede arithmetic, and as we've found using the API, if you use commas, the accuracy (zero and few-shot) goes way up.
> Men want to be the breadwinner, so it's going to end up forcing women out of the workforce and back into the home.

I’d love to send my wife out to work for the family.

In fact I’d love to get multiple wives and send them all out to work.
Don't do this. Instead, reject the assignment and move on. Getting it done on upwork is unfair to both employer and employee in my opinion.
Doesn't make too much difference to the overall point.
Fast-pitch softball is quite a bit closer to baseball than slow-pitch.
Thank you for the great question about access: access and quality are our twin aims when it comes to delivering mental health support to teens. The product is in service to those aims.

So to answer your question: our current product reflects what we think is the best solution to increase access to therapy while maintaining quality. Over time, as we learn more, the product could evolve to become even more accessible (e.g., more digital) if we are able to maintain quality with that solution.

One other piece I'll say on access: for a healthcare company the 'insurance plans' control the keys to access. From Day 1 an important part of our strategy is pursuing reimbursement so that the cost of our services reaches $0 for teens and families who need it and cannot afford the out-of-pocket cost. We are not there yet, but it is our goal!
frankly, I wish there were a lot more settings to optimize for in google maps. I actually prefer to stay off the highway for short trips, even if it takes a little longer. it feels super wasteful to accelerate up to 60+ mph to merge safely, then slam on the brakes one or two exits later. similarly, google will often send me through complicated (and therefore dangerous, imo) intersections which could be avoided completely with a couple extra turns. sometimes I'm not in any real hurry to get somewhere; it would be nice to have a "scenic route" option for these cases.

unfortunately, I suspect the simplicity is more a deliberate design choice rather than mere laziness. I'm not holding my breath for these features, but I hope that one day a viable competitor may emerge to offer navigation for power users.
Even child psychologists have reversed their stance on returning to school. They've realized that the trauma of having a teacher die is worse than not socializing for a few more months.

At the current virus levels, it is expected that at least two teachers and 60 students will die every day in the USA if we reopen schools.

That is of course out of hundreds of thousands of teachers and millions of students, but if it's your teacher or your friend, it doesn't really matter how many millions didn't die that day, does it?
Agreed. Nearly every AI startup or idea has disappointed or failed. We’re spending the equivalent of billions of dollars on something dumber than a rat in most cases.
The simple solution there is to not make a proprietary product to begin with. Sorry, not trying to be snarky, but that (among other things) is the price you pay for that decision. It's baffling to me how some companies are so resistant to having to conduct legal reviews to use open source, which in a lot of cases will directly make them money, but at the same time these companies will gladly wave a giant NDA at someone just to start a negotiation.
I miss trunk.
What other protests have anywhere near this much violence? Gay rights movements have had large protests/marches for decades. Same with anti-abortion activists (and pro-choice activists). Hell, even literal neo-nazis have protests that don't get this violent.

Ok, we'll change to that latter article from http://tedwilliams.com/_data/hzone.htm. Thanks!

Thanks! I suspect that public health authorities wouldn't like this, as they do not want people to feel that they can "spend" at all unless it's essential. But that doesn't seem like something we can actually sustain until the vaccine, so I have found the concept helpful.

Why would you need to renounce US citizenship, and why would you pay double income tax? The US has a tax treaty with New Zealand[1] to minimize (but not eliminate) these types of double-taxation issues.

You write as if you believe the difference between small-footprint embedded cryptography and server farm cryptography was the byte size of the resulting .o/.a. That can't possibly be what you believe; if I described you that way, you'd justifiably object that I was attacking a straw man. Perhaps you can clarify.
By using a smarter tool.

I personally use magit, which solves this problem across all of git, but it's tied to Emacs.

tig is a git log browser I've heard good things about that seems to handle this use case very nicely.

You may also be able to pervert less into making this easier, e.g. by using lesskey(1) to add a keybinding that runs `git show $(xclip -o)`. I don't know how wise that would be.
I can't comment on the "true" motivation for releasing these documents, but I noticed the same site includes
https://opensource.google/docs/thirdparty/oneversion/
which is a very Google-internal-only kind of problem, complete with broken links to Google-internal-only tools and processes (rosie and lsc). That page at least is definitely just a dump of the internal documentation.
I think its not realistic to expect employers to know this right now.
Birds are wired in a fundamentally different way than all our existing computers thus we will never have fly-by-wire, not even if we throw unlimited computing power at it.

I'll edit my post later with my deployment and cluster architecture. In short, it's sharded and proxied from a thin microservice at the top of the stack. I'll probably introduce a job queue soon.

You won't have to wait that long -- EVs reduce noise substantially and mass adoption is probably one to three decades away depending on the city
There are 3 types of candidates:

1. Need a job bad and would do almost any assignment to get that job.

2. Want a job bad (not need it necessarily) because it is at their favorite company, unicorn etc etc.

3. Just looking around for an opportunity and unless it checks a lot of boxes, won't change.

If you are #2 or #3, then you have choices. Otherwise, I would say go back to them and offer "I can do this in language x since I am more comfortable" and then see their response.
> What I wonder is whether it can do reasoning of the causality kind: what if X hadn't happened, what evidence do we need to collect to know if theory Z is falsified, which data W is confounding?

I think logic is the easy part, we can already do that with our current technology.

The difficult part is disambiguating an input text, and transforming it into something a logic subsystem can deal with. (And then optionally transform the results back to text).
Wow if you consider flatten gibberish I have nothing to say to you that can convince you..

Talking about bare metal and video games, take a peek at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Oriented_Assembly_Lisp

Mind you this guys are far above average, but you can't get more perf + low level than this.

I think in time you'll realize how nice other paradigms can be, even if they look alien for quite some time.
So Google is wrong for being secretive when not sharing, and wrong when they're not because clearly it's a ruse?

Heads I win, tails you lose. With that logic you can fit any action into what you already "know".
Even better than just trying to detect it via ML, let it be a separate option to toggle.
Domains labels are fairly strictly defined, so you check that a bit more stringently.

> as I think every external address needs a dotted domain.

Something like example@com is technically a valid email address; although I don't know if there are any TLDs which accept emails.
For me checking the mail when I’m not expecting something (so, 50 weeks out of the year) most closely resembles emptying a small trash bin every so often so it doesn’t overflow. I’m generally pro-USPS for other reasons but yeah, checking the mail is a kinda worthless chore. Do it so they don’t suspend delivery in case I need something. Not to read anything that showed up.
It sounds like a mess to be honest. More production of heroin for 10 years, then 1.5 million refugees because there is no ground water anymore
You write this as if the whole debate wasn't about what the definition of the "source" that needed to be provided was. The concern is that the AGPL is written in a way that admits to an expansive definition of that source.
As someone who learnt version control with Subversion, I'm hoping trunk will come back into fashion.

The passive aggressive isn't necessary.
I would expect sublinear scaling in compute cost. Learning curve effects are strong in DL: https://cdn.openai.com/papers/ai_and_efficiency.pdf The more runs you do, the cheaper they get. Plus, OA is no longer running on rented V100s, they have their own MS Azure supercomputer, remember (in fact, GPT-3's evaluation was interrupted because they moved to it), so they remove the enormous cloud margins.
This is really solid advice!
So then the adversaries could wear laser safety glasses with the same 532 nm bandstop filter? Seems like a simple fix for them.
Thank you for your great comment and for your important work at OkaySo.

We recognize that our current pricing, while an improvement over private practice, is still out-of-reach for much of the country. Our plan is to: 1) continue to evolve the product to reduce cost of care while maintaining quality, 2) pursue partnerships with health plans and eventually Medicaid (which covers the lowest income teens) so that our services can be offered for free to those teens. We are very open to other funding models to increase the access of our services for teens as well! I'll reach out to learn more
Yes it would, but you would be working in cache lines rather than disk blocks.

When working with RAM your PC will transfer a cache line of memory from RAM to your CPU caches. Again this is a feature of hardware limitations and trading off granularity against speed.

Your CPU operates many time faster than RAM so it makes sense to request multiple bytes at once, then your RAM can access those bytes, and line them up on it’s output pins ready for your CPU to come back and read them into cache. This give you better bandwidth. (It’s a little more complicated than this because the bytes are transferred in serial, rather than in parallel, but digging into the details here is tad tricky).

On the granularity point, the more granular your memory access pattern is, the more bits you need to address that memory. In RAM that either means more physical pins and motherboard traces, or more time to communicate that address. It also means more transistors are needed to hold that address in memory while you’re looking it up. All of those things mean more money.

And before we start looking at memory map units, that let you do magical things like map a 64 bit address space into only 16GB of physical RAM. Again the greater the granularity, the more transistors your MMU needs to store the mapping, and thus more cost.

So really the reason we don’t have bit level addressing granularity is ultimately cost. There’s no reason you could build a machine that did that, it would just cost a fortune and wouldn’t provide any practical benefits. So engineers made trade off to build something more useful.

> I tend to agree, but women don't want to be home alone with kids. Historically, women would share duties with other women in the village so there was a lot more socializing and mentorship.

Stay at home moms are always having get togethers, play dates, catching up for coffee, etc.

The more of your friends who are stay at home moms the easier it becomes to be a stay at home mom.
No, because I understand why the DRM exists. It's a case of competition between corporations causing a race to the bottom on pricing, and so they need to ensure an alternate revenue stream.

I can't say more because I don't want to violate an NDA, and I don't want to self-doxx and say who I work for, especially because I still work for them.
Are you logging the words people submit? That'd be a good source for the most common OOV tokens to add.
Again, in a lot of the ACTUAL world, a 15 minute drive isn't possible. That's a ... 5-10 mile walk?

Think beyond suburbia, which is really quite small in the scheme of things.
Quite a leap. Much more likely explanation is someone asked someone else to publish the open source docs and they did the minimum amount of censorship needed to get it out the door.
Yes and sometimes you have unplanned 680 MW to 0 with "baseload" nuclear:

I'm not aware of any, and I haven't had much time to look as I'm not to the point of doing style tokens yet. I'm certain this would be useful for annotating data and for all sorts of other applications. Sentiment analysis, etc.
I appreciate that you give the world a window into your experiences and reflections.
Just to humor you.

We develop websites on $3000 Macbooks Pro's. The shitty $300 Windows laptop I see in most households is struggling with a lot of websites. As are $200 Android phones I see many people use on a daily basis. I rarely see any developer testing performance on a crap device or bad connection.

The Pinebook might be an outlier device by itself. But ARM Windows laptops are pretty common.
I don't think training on language by itself is enough. Consider for example, if we found extraterrestrial transmissions from an alien civilization. We don't know what they look like, what they're made of or if they even have corporeal form. All we have is a large quantity of sequential tokens from their communications.

It's possible to train GPT3 to produce a facsimile of these transmissions, but doing so does not let us learn anything at all about these aliens, beyond statistical correlations like ⊑⏃⟒⍀ often occurring in close proximity to ⋏⟒⍙⌇ (what do they represent - who knows?). Just having the text is not enough, because we have no understanding of the underlying processes that produced the text.

That said, this is only a limitation of language models as they currently exist. I imagine it would be possible to train a ML model that encodes more of the human experience via video/audio/proprioception data.
Thanks for the kind words! We do believe designing for virtual first offers a lot of advantages vs. tacking it on to a traditional practice.

You ask a great question, and we'll add it to our FAQ. We currently refer out for the medication prescription needs, and are evaluating bringing the capability in-house.
Even if it was perfectly (or at least technically) legal, I'd still argue that it would be wrong to do it.

That's fair, but the way I've seen this done is with a 2-bedroom apartment. A young family will need that eventually anyway. The second bedroom can be the caregiver's until it becomes the child's.
It is a very interesting problem. Throughout history humans have been able to rely on direct experience via our senses to evaluate input and ideas.

Many of those ideas are now complex enough that direct experience doesn't work. IE global warming, economics, various policies. Futhermore even direct (or near-direct experience such as video) is becoming less trustworthy due to technology like deepfakes and eventually VR and neuralink.

It seems to me that this problem of validating what is real and true might soon be an issue for both humans and AI. Are we both destined to put our future in the hands of weights provided by 'experts'?
Hackers stole GitHub and Gitlab OAuth tokens from Git analytics firm Waydev
> The author experienced clear signs that this platform's software support is not mature.

The author claimed that alt-tabbing takes about one second. This was not true on default install using Mate from December.

Author claims that merely entering a directory containing a Git repo freezes the terminal. Again, clearly not true using stock Mate terminal.

Author goes on to rankly speculate that the problems with this laptop may be "CPU and disk side." Again, completely misleading as to the actual hardware as I stated above. And easily corrected by merely testing with the default OS Pine shipped.

Aside from Panfrost I have no idea why the author ran into those problems. But he doesn't either, and he falsely attributed them to hardware limitations when it was facile to check his error by running the laptop for perhaps five minutes in the default install.
Depends on your system of ethics.

And unfortunately, quite a lot of people will just lap it up, either as they don't know the tech exists or because something about the message meshes with their preconceived notions.

The art will be to release something just scandalous enough to make a difference, but just believable enough to pass a very basic smell test.

It's horrifying to watch against a background of politics becoming more polarised and more vitriolic on all sides.
I wrote this essay yesterday in a fit of despair over my internet addiction in quarantine. Hopefully it's relatable!
Huh, I thought most of them were two stroke.
I did not find the boundary issue to be a problem for me since we switched to WFH. As a matter of fact I enjoy it immensely; even with the family at home I am able to reasonably focus on work (ANC headphones, closing doors, etc. help here). If there is a productivity hit the lack of commute makes up for it, and in exchange I get to spend more time with them.

The main downside of WFH, especially for introverts, and which I don't think is being noticed yet, is the workplace social network / face-to-face bandwidth. The former has been established through working at the office until this March, and we are now coasting on those connections. Who to ask for help with X, which people to get together to socialize a project, etc. I would hate to be a new hire in this environment; there is so much less social contact and less rapport building.

Then, there are instances of when you need to tackle a hard problem with several people in a group, and focus. Usually we would do this in a closed conference room with a whiteboard. The f2f bandwidth is hard to match here.

For the above two reasons I think companies that restart office work (even if a year from now) will be more competitive, and the "WFH Spring" won't last.
Not op but I have several Synology NASen using Btrfs volumes with no issues that I can recall in the past six years. I’ve replaced all of the drives twice to increase available storage and that’s it. The two I have at home are both set to autoupdate and do monthly disk scrubbing—they automatically email after scrubbing with any issues. They’re really pretty hands off devices overall.

oh yeah, the "pizza" party. 50+ developer here. As I age, pizza and games feel more like going to Chuckee Cheese (a US pizza chain for children's birthday parties). I rather watch a soccer match at the nearest bar or play freesbee in the parking lot.
Twenty years ago I worked at a place that had offices in buildings across the street from each other and had a laser network link between them in case the link through our ISP stopped working. I don't recall if we ever had to rely on it while I was working there, but I remember the guy in charge of monitoring it used to complain that it didn't work on foggy mornings. One end of the link was on the 21st floor, and we got fog at that level a lot more often at that height than at ground level.
You should find out how the starlink network will communicate if you're worried about accuracy.
Bose and Sony, 2 of the most expensive tech product companies, are the example here. The option is buy your sub $10 wired skull candy earbuds and ignore anything that's more expensive because it isn't an option. It's the same reason recent generations grew p on fast food, it's cheaper and easier and all some people have resources for.

I grew up in Latvia and, trust me, the levels of corruption in Latvia are astonishing and are only limited by a relatively small budget. Yet, people are generally quite slim, and the biggest politicians are mostly sleek, tall and quite good looking.

This study needs a LOT more insight. It basically says that there is correlation with the exception of Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and sometimes Ukraine. Well, that's basically all the Western/European post-USSR space, which is a lot, so it diminishes the entire thesis.

Also, countries like Tajikistan were affected by starvation after the WW2 a lot more than the Baltic States, which this study doesn't mention. Several years ago Ukraine were commemorating people who have been through Holodomor, which was also a period of severe starvation in Ukrainian SSR imposed by the collectivism after the WW2, and I remember seeing this guy receiving a medal for it... The guy was morbidly obese. So, in my opinion, it would be useful to look into the correlation of financial struggle in the USSR era and the modern attitude towards food and things that were not easily obtainable back in the USSR.
