We welcome internship/fellowship interest from postdoctoral scholars or senior graduate students.

We do not presently have openings for current/recent undergraduates.

Send your resume to info@onai.com and we'll let you know if there's a potential fit.
Is there a press release that doesn't use a ridiculously overused scroll visualization?
you have to be ever vigilant on whats happening with your data.
This is something I currently speculate too. Hotter states really benefited from AC allowing people to live there comfortably. I think it might show us what’s coming as people move indoors in colder months elsewhere.

It’s getting harder and harder to stay away from people from a purely psychological standpoint, and I think fall is going to get bad in the PNW as people congregate indoors to stay out of the wet and cold.

All good points. I get annoyed with my own email address sometimes. Its easy to remember and easy to say, but using a less common TLD (.world) has its drawbacks namely:

- Some apps may use an email validation regex that excludes new TLDs. 99% of users are coming from .com or .org TLDs, and so devs sometimes unnecessarily restrict valid inputs on email forms.

- People expect .com or .org and if I ever verbally give someone my email, I feel I need to specify that it's just .world and not .world.com or something like that.
Unfortunately ADT is the worst security company out there or in the US for that matter. Garbage.

Your second paragraph proves my point that it's a rather contentious statement. "Just a reminder," beyond implying that it is already known, is partly just an introduction to the main point. And the main point is an aggressive accusation.
I also am not a fan of facial unlock, I would much rather have a finger print reader like previous models. Though I will say if my hands are sweaty it doesn't work, which is a bit annoying.
My friend is a solutions architect at AWS. He put me in touch with whoever is responsible for the plan. Had a 5 minute phone call with them and got approved for the credits.

Judging by how big AWS is, I'm sure everyone knows someone who works there.

> the sheer amount of hypocrisy surrounding the supposed safety of protesting for left wing causes vs anything else

Even if these protests have been have been relatively safe, I worry about a publication bias with those findings (publishing that the protests spread covid would be politically risky) and, more importantly, the lack of criticism essentially gave people permission to go have their own gatherings.
Writing Hamlet with Evolutionary Algorithms
Issues as systematic as this often point to poor execution or weak teams in the organization. Reorganizing them to allow for better focus or better alignment (or in many cases just better leadership to a business unit that is struggling) can lead to some pretty dramatic results even with the majority of the organization remaining the same. Look at Microsoft - both in size (~100-150k employees) and challenges (market share loss, lack of innovation in key areas, delayed deliveries) - and the impact of Satya on the organization at large with regards to that.

Intel's fab has been lackluster for the last 5 years and the only solution at this point is to reorganize for better results. 10nm is unfathomably late and 7nm slipping like this is another red flag. I think too much tolerance for failure was given to the unit in charge of fabrication and I would be curious to see an organizational post mortem done on that.

In the interest of seeing continued competition in the processor world (which we're already seeing the numerous advantages of with AMD now) and also in the fabrication space (TSMC is getting very close to monopoly) I really hope that Intel solves this issue.

>I can't easily switch the company that provides power to my condo.

This is because they have a government protected monopoly. Cities like Chicago and Baltimore and NYC used to have dozens of competing utilities before the government began granting charters that gave one firm an exclusive right to provide power, gas, or oil.

MacOS does? By what measure?
He's essentially reiterating Mac's argument from It's Always Sunny, casting doubt on people who deliver information by informing us that "Science is a liar... sometimes".

It was also people who found out those people were wrong or lying.

Yes, Piltdown man was a fraud, but it was the same "scientific community" that discovered it was a fraud. Because there were things that didn't make sense even within the confines of the field of study.

That's the great thing about the process, it's ultimately self-correcting.
I 100% agree with you. My Pixel 2 is now ~2.5 years old and the performance is still perfectly fine, except that I have to charge it twice a day. It usually lasted a full day when it was new, though.

I'm interested in some of the recent flagships and gaming phones that have 5-6000mAh batteries and settings to not charge up to 100% every night. Once the battery is big enough, you can do things like that to extend the longevity. I'm hoping to see more of that.

> Musk and a journalist of the NYT I would still trust the journalist more

Why do you believe a journalist who contradicts his own story after being called out on the original? Anyone reading your link in isolation might think it a fine rebuttal, but it's inconsistent with the original piece he wrong for the NYT--they can't both be true.

I also like how he defends the "sloppy note-taking" with, "But the manufacturer didn't tell me they had a GPS tracker on the car." That speaks volumes.
The more you know about a subject, the more false reporting you will find related to that subject.

Remember that next time you read news about something you are not already well versed in.
The article's actual title uses the word "burn", not "add", which makes more sense. "Add video subtitles on the fly from plain text" is basically just a description of subtitles as they work today.
2 things that I liked him for (after reading/hearing just cursorily -- I would like to read more):

1) His perspectives on how the unfairnesses that life throws at you are part of, and incentivize you towards making your life better and not something that you should simply seek to eliminate without knowing what the unintended consequences are. See his essay on "Cosmic Justice": https://www.tsowell.com/spquestc.html

2) That if we seek to have a sustainable approach to how society is managed, maybe we need to set up the reasonable rules and structures of how we want outcomes to be guided by, and not change them willy-nilly because of who happens to benefit at the time. There will be winners and losers no matter what. It's tiring to switch your rules every time you don't like who came out ahead.
Seems interesting if you want a reasonably sized phone with less bloatware, but for 30$ more the Galaxy A71 seems like a better deal, here's a comparison: https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=9995&idPhone2...

> 4500 mAh vs 3140 mAh on the Pixel

> microSD card slot vs no card slot on Pixel

> The A71 has more cameras

> 2 extra GBs of RAM on the A71
The point still stands that what Google Reader was and what you want is an RSS reader.

Unless I'm missing something, they never did anything unique to "use its clout to affect change on other organizations and make that data available to them in the form they wanted"—it was just an RSS reader, and what you've described is exactly how I use my reader of choice (Feedbin). Many modern offerings even offer a feature to pull the full text for articles where it's not included by default.
Holy crap! Headphone jack!!! YES!
Emmet mentioned evaluating Dart / Flutter for desktop clients. Would you consider contracting some of that work out to a shop devoted to Next-gen Flutter apps ;)
Correlation is definitely an important factor, but there are multitude of studies demonstrating an important inherent race/gender/origin bias in many important decisions, from hiring to housing to financing and more.

It comes to mind an experiment carried in France where they sent fake housing applications where the only difference between two sets of applicants was a Muslim-sounding name vs a Christian one. The results showed a much higher response rate for the latter, despite everything else being equal. I can't find the original, but found this similar one working with job applications (https://www.pnas.org/content/107/52/22384).

Not to negate the main point about "showing up", but there's more to it. When I've had the chance to hire someone and there are two similar candidates, I preferred to choose the one with the lower ranked school credentials. My thinking is that if this person has reached the same level of achievements with less environmental help, they probably have more grit and get-it-done in them than the candidate from the top school. Much more than that can be done in a systemic way, but it's a start.
Your github link is typed incorrectly the first time here btw
The NYT is wildly inaccurate on foreign affairs regularly. For an exceptionally famous example, recall their reporting on WMDs in Iraq for which they have never squarely apologized.

It is common knowledge. They are doing the deep cleaning as a means to calm the masses. They know it does not really go any distance towards solving the issue but they don't want / have the funding nor the political capital to address the ventilation issue.
Terrible move for several reasons, but the most important long-term one that it essentially validates China's approach to foreign firms. Now they finally have a case where they can point at the US and say, "you're accusing us of putting strict conditions on foreign firms to protect our national interests, that's what we've been saying all along!"

Now every foreign firm who considered the US to be a relatively safe market will calculate if they stand to become the victim of great power competition. I think it will also speed up the development of national sovereign internet spaces, given how many international institutions of the global web are located in the US and delegitimize them.
Caper | YC W16 | https://www.caper.ai/ | Remote | Fulltime

Caper builds smart shopping carts - powered by deep learning and computer vision - to enable a seamless grab-and-go retail experience. We differ from other emerging cashierless technologies like Amazon Go because we are the scalable solution. Caper’s autonomous checkout technology is plug and play, meaning it requires no in-store renovation, no operational overhaul, no heavy computations or endless image labeling. Any retailers can buy the carts and their entire store is upgraded with cashierless capabilities. Caper costs less than 1% of Amazon Go's infrastructure. We are already live in-stores and our customers love us! See here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/10/25/tired-l...

Personally, I'd push back on such a change unless there was a very good reason. I feel like this violates the same kind of principle as "we do not break user space EVER". My point above is that a programmer should understand better than most how important muscle memory and shortcuts are to productivity.
It's funny to us now, because we are free from the social signals of that time but for those people it was serious.

Also, we have similar signals today. For example, a handmade Swiss watch signals for which you pay for months of a skilled artisan's work, all for something whose ultimate function you could replicate with a $20 watch.
Yeah, how is that working out for you (Texas), not well....

https://www.notebookcheck.net/SD-730G-vs-SD-845_11555_9958.2...

Take any benchmarks with a grain of salt, of course, but it appears the 845 is only about 10% faster than the 730G on average. Still that double memory bandwidth certainly affects perceived performance a bit.
I'm not really debating whether the problem was handled correctly. That is in the past, what matters is what we do now and in the future.

Are case rates low enough for people to safely crowd into bars on Friday night? If they are, then we should let people do that. If they aren't, then we shouldn't.

One, there is a variety of pineapple (white pineapple) you can only get in Hawaii because it is too delicate to ship that really is tastier than what you find in U.S. supermarkets.

Two, this article doesn’t address the crazy urban rumor I heard years ago that people who place pineapple flags outside their homes, at least in the suburbs, are signaling that they are swingers.
GitHub Joins the Open Source Security Foundation
As usual this link shows me a Chromecast with no explanation. It's already strange how they segment by geography within the EU but breaking the links like this instead of just saying it's unavailable in your location is broken.

I'm currently looking for a phone and the Moto G Pro is easily available, an Android One device so gets proper updates for a long time as well and seems to have very comparable specs for less money.

The problem with that is, that Google will drop it exactly when those 3 years are over. 3 years isn't very long, especially if you don't buy at release.

Some other manufacturers actually provide quarterly updates after those 3 years but are more inconsistent with delivering monthly updates.

The catch is that you'll be lucky to get a full year of software updates for the A71. Google committed to 3 years for the Pixel line.

On a hardware-level, though, I agree, the A71 is a much better value.
Leon Fleisher, spellbinding pianist with one hand or two, dies at 92
This is an awesome phone at $350. I currently have the Pixel 4, but if this was available when I was making my purchase decision, I'd probably have gone with it.

That said, the Pixel line of phones isn't known for having long lasting battery. A feature that I've found to be indispensable is wireless charging. I just rest my Pixel 4 on a vertical charging base throughout the day. Otherwise, I'd have to have to constantly plug/unplug the phone throughout the day to charge, and that'd be a huge regression in the user experience.

Just as I'm about 100% fully committed to Bluetooth headsets and my collection is just about fully covering all my use cases, Google brings back the 3.5mm jack! Nice that they're giving me hope that I can still use my wired headsets without having to use a dongle, but I'd be again terribly disappointed if they removed this feature again in the next iteration. This feature alone is almost enough to downgrade my Pixel 4.

P.S. The Pixel 4 isn't an available trade-in option for the Pixel 4a. Lol!
why would that matter? transmission from surfaces is apparently quite low, and it doesnt last long on surfaces, and its not like im touching / eating off anything my shoes come into contact with anyway. This feels like an incredibly low risk vector
Perhaps I don't know what I'm missing, but I've just bought low end Androids thus far. Like the Motorola G series. I typically buy one that's about $150, and they tend to last 2-3 years before I crack the screen, etc.

I've never felt like they were slow or missing anything I needed.
I’ve recently revived a boxy, suitcase 386 and the biggest thing that jumped out at me was the lack of distraction and the similarity to an old tool. I blogged about it a bit recently:

I mean, yeah, it’s not _capable_ of a whole lot, but it’s a refreshing perspective to look back at computing from then and to think about how much we did that wasn’t sitting at the computer as a nerve center of our lives.
