When it comes to the political issue that I hold most dear, housing, I will say that most liberals and lefties lose their supposed values when it's close to home. NIMBY opposition to apartments and multi family housing is a shared value, and it's only the Republicans in these areas who speak about their honest opinions, where as liberals will invent all sorts of reasons to justify their aesthetic preference, and ignore the chance for greater economic, environmental, and racial justice in their own neighborhoods.

However, when it comes to rural areas, areas that don't even have leftists but may have a few liberals, my experience is that the anti-lib stance is the overriding view, along with being pro-gun, pro-God (at least in theory), and pro-fossil fuel. It's a cultural war more than a political war, in-tribe versus out-of-tribe. For Democrats, the culture war does not extend to swapping values on the national stage depending on who is in power, it only seems to be loca control of housing.

Yeah, if we had such cut and dry "rules" about medicine, then we could automate a lot of what doctors do. Medicine is as much about the art as it is the science. You come to understand the limitations of different measuring techniques, and learn to know when you need to rely on each for more accurate representations.

> graph coloring register allocation

I knew some people working on linear optimization, at the time one of the most performance-intensive applications around (with real money/competitiveness in many industries riding on it). The compiler that produced the best code, by quite a bit, was the IBM FORTRAN compiler (3090 was the preferred target at the time), which also didn't do graph coloring. It just allocated the registers by loops from innermost to outermost.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯\

For a simple compiler, we should also look at Wirth's works, and Wirth's rule: an optimization has to pay for itself, that is, the compiler compiling itself with the optimization both in the executable and in the source code has to be faster than without it in both places.

It's the rate of change in CO2 levels that is unprecedented in human history and for a long time in earths history. The effects of that change include ocean acidification and habitat loss for many species. It stands to reason that atmospheric change on a timescale much smaller than what natural selection and species adaptation normally occur at could be very damaging to all sorts of ecosystems.

Hi, I'm Alex from Datafold.

By large tables we mean 1B+ rows. You'll likely do not want to do joins on them directly.

> You just do an either-way except

If one column in one of the tables is completely different, it'll return 1M rows. It's not exactly helpfull, so let's add an order by and limit. Now you'll need to spot differences in 100 column table, since hiding matching values is even more hand-written / generated sql.

It's pretty good to know about all problems upfront and not find and fix them one-by-one, but creating representative sample of differences is difficult to do with hand-written sql.

Then what about cross-db comparison, sampling, integrating with CI / github PRs?

> There are easy solutions with checksums, error correction (comes free with networks) or round-tripping, is that a problem

Some companies are using complex pipelines that can and sometimes do lose events. Often they don't need their data to be 100% perfect. So they need to know if they lost anything, what exactly and if it's within acceptable range.

As always, roll-your-own is a valid approach, as is using already available tools to save time. Many large companies like Uber and Spotify with data teams of 100+ have detailed roadmaps for diffing tools because they find their data engineers spending days doing regression testing, and they must be proficient with SQL.
Modeling Heterogeneity in Covid-19 Reproductive Number and Predictive Scenarios
1) My bread and butter for the last 10 years has been machine learning. When all you have is a hammer...

2) We don't extract surface contours, we learn a volumetric radiance field! To oversimplify, we learn a (smooth) function that, given a position in space, produces the differential opacity and color at that space. To render an image from a camera viewpoint, we approximately integrate along rays emitted from each pixel of the camera.

Check out NeRF and our paper to learn more about this representation!
One a sidenote: I bought myself the airpods pro shortly before corona started and it has been a heaven for me. I never had such a good experience with any headset including my expensive Jabra headset. I also heard no complains regarding voice quality from anybody on the phone either. They truly made the home office experience a lot better for me. They worked great with MS Teams on my Mac and after a 5 seconds connection delay on Skype too. I usually charge one earpiece when it‘s low on battery and use the other, without any interruption. I do not plan to go back to any other headsets/earphones unless they can provide the same experience.
Password protection may have been used to bypass antivirus and other filters. While you should treat dumps like this with a lot of suspicion, treat password protected zips with a heaping dose of care as they may have been used to evade automated defenses.
Oh, I totally agree with you. I was just making an observation of the trend more than anything.

I'm someone who does everything that I possibly can while offline, and I'm mostly in the camp that the "Save" button being a floppy is not much different today than learning how to pinch-to-zoom or click a mouse (i.e. there's an up front cost to learning it, but it's already ubiquitous, so why change)

"We show that individuals with Dark Triad traits—Machiavellianism, Narcissism, Psychopathy—more frequently signal virtuous victimhood, controlling for demographic and socioeconomic variables that are commonly associated with victimization in Western societies."

I know that the study controlled for socioeconomic and demographic variables, but I can think of a couple potential problems. One is that the overall study is composed of several smaller studies, each of which uses what may be a flimsy way of assessing negative traits from surveys and games. The other problem is as follows: take two African American women who make the same amount of income. Generally, they have the same demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. However, if one believes that she must, on the margins, extract more from an oppressive system, and the other believes that she must completely work with the system and take what she can get (regardless of her beliefs about the system), then can the former be classified as a Machiavellian psychopath and the latter be classified as a normative angel? (rhetorical question)

Note: I used the term "the system" to abstract from a lot of variables to keep things brief.

Note 2: Don't get me wrong, I'm not a post-modernist on ethics. Quite the opposite. I'm just skeptical about many psychological studies like the one in the OP. The correlations could be true (or not, or smaller in magnitude), and the research is worth doing, but I see no reason to update my priors yet.

It's at all-time highs right now, way over what the stock market was in 2007, 2008. The S&P had already bounced back to pre-2009 levels by 2014. At 3350 right now, it's more than double what it was in 2007 (1500). Inflation has not doubled since 2008. Inflation is near all time lows and interest rates are near all time lows and have been for at least a decade.
the point though they're making is that if they die, then it can massively affect the banks. The knock on effect could be huge.

The difference of 5% is only common in the 60-70% on some clips. In the 90%-100% level the different is up to 2%-3% on the worst pulse ox's, and usually around 1%.

For reference I have two pulse oximeters at home and they routinely give me results that differ by 2-3%.

Seems like an issue we should fix, but I don't know what impact this would have in a clinical setting given that they use multiple criteria and the devices are known to be inaccurate.
The model does not explicitly learn to segment images. The answer is unfortunately more difficult to explain than a HN comment bears. I encourage you to read the paper for more details.

You're not wrong, and under normal circumstances this would be a blip on the radar. However, the hundreds if not thousands of locations each of these companies plan to shutter will have an unprecedented effect on the commercial real estate market. Within months we will have thousands of property owners suddenly unable to pay their mortgages because they no longer have tenants, meaning they will have to default on their loans. This will greatly affect banks and other lenders in the months and years following. It's a domino effect that will be felt for many, many years after we've wiped out SARS-CoV-2.

Without commenting on the quality of the Bloomberg piece, exclusion is quite literally the reason that HOAs were created. The original, explicit, and completely legal purpose of an HOA was to exclude specific races and creeds and we cannot dispute that.

Argue devil's advocate all you like, but there are many HOAs with "No Jews, Asiatics, Blacks, or Mulattos allowed" still on the charter and "Whites only" written directly into the deed.

Wasn't that long ago, and many of the people who wrote those bylaws are still alive...

There is no such thing as “real security”, only varying degrees of protection from a specific threat model. You’ve clearly gained a lot of confidence thinking about this specific threat model while neglecting a more general and useful way to engage in discussion about threat models.

Among other things, you don’t write all the software that goes on your computer, let alone build the hardware yourself, so you’re not “really” secure at all. And because you do claim “real security”, I can’t square your statements with any threat model I can imagine.
You absolutely get type safety across module boundaries with C in that if provider and user both compile against the same interface, this will be typesafe.

You could even have this type safety on the linker level as far as C is concerned. You just need an object file format that exports C types for symbols. This is not done on any of the (few) systems I know, and probably for practical reasons.

Some other languages give you this link time safety, but I assume at the cost of less interoperable object files.
I think everyone loses regardless, but I don't think we should prop up businesses, capitalism should be a game that you play to win or play to lose.

Government needs to stop getting involved period. Help at the bottom - prop up the citizens who the government IS responsible for, let the rest duke it out. Corporations are not citizens. Government has no duty to help corporations.

But, yeah everybody will hurt by this, sure. Malls will close, businesses will close inside malls, investors will hurt, and workers who worked at those businesses lose, even some consumers who enjoy malls lose, cities lose because they become blight, many probably get abandoned and become gang hideouts or something. Homeowners lose because home values drop, but lots of other factors will be causing a lot of the cycles above to happen to. Next 10 years is a hazardous wasteland for prosperity.

Should just start bulldozing some of them and building green spaces and parks. I have a feeling open air is going to be a big trend over the next decade (less chance of viral spread).

I often look to Rwanda and think that is what most African countries need, a benevolent dictator. I know, I know we shouldn't be glorifying dictators. I have heard of abuses of power in Rwanda but I have also heard so many good things. In my home country it is mostly bad things. Rwandan streets are clean, they started manufacturing/assembling cell phones and a whole raft of other good things. So in short I think you are right, for some reason it seems difficult for the "good" politicians to get elected. When they do get elected they often don't last long.

I think I've seen it stated that property developers and property-management companies are often heavily leveraged, such that they can't lower rents; in about the same way that a VC firm with a ten-year investment time horizon on their fund can't invest in your startup if all your valuation-growth will come only after 11 years.

In both cases, the lenders and shareholders of the firm, have contractually obligated the firm to have specific returns (and often have built financial instruments on top of those predictable returns, which is why they bothered to invest in the first place!) So the firm itself is destined to either return the predicted profit, or die, with no middle road.
at my first job they used a similar password as their go-to "temporary" password for users etc. I found later when I got to work with the users that they rarely changed this password even when "forced" to, and in many cases had it up on post-its next to their monitor.
Hey :), full code isn't up yet but I can share the color pattern:

http://thebookofshaders.com/edit.php?log=200806194314

The technique is called "sine puke", and it works by starting with a gradient (in this case a rainbow) and warping the domain when drawing that gradient by sine functions repeatedly (check the for loop)

The model is trained to reconstruct what is observed, but not what is obscured. If you look closely at our videos, you'll notice some parts of the scene are blurry -- those parts weren't seen often enough to learn well. If you look at parts of the scene not observed at all, I'm not sure what you'd find.
Because it's a shallow movie.

I think SSA is not implemented from the start by many compilers is because many compilers are 30+ years old.

More seriously, my recollection (having been about 20 years since I last took a compilers course) is that it took a while for even researchers to be convinced of the advantages of SSA, as the transformation causes a quadratic blowup in code size for the worst case (but it turns out to be less in real-world cases).

Also Sussman & Steele proposed CPS in 1975 which is closely related to SSA.

You mean "Munchausen"? Isn't that a bit of psudoscience? Genuinely asking. I'm under the impression it is not good science.

Edit: To be more clear I'm not denying that the clinical descriptions of it are lies. Rather my impression is that they do not amount to a diagnosable condition. The variance between the reported cases leave it as a very open ended and even dangerous diagnosis. This is my current impression and I could be wrong.
Mr Process's Wild Ride
I pitched a similar idea in an interview years ago in an interview (http://www.wearegamedevs.com/2016/01/20/scott-anderson-rende...) with the added complexity of forward simulating past events with different choices. I was asked what I would do with infinite time and money though. To this day my elderly parents tell me to quit my job and work on this idea :-D.

I do believe that past time travel to reconstructed and recorded events will be one of the stickiest use cases for VR.
that would've been the smart thing to do... or a mandate from the top down fed > banks > lenders > corp|residential landlord > tenant to allow partial payments based on need, until crisis is over.

Everyone succeeds then. Might still need some stimulus for the bottom 10% of society but maybe not as badly.
