I'm an interdisciplinary developer / creative technologist with a focus on front end web. 5+ years experience. Often I'm in hybrid roles that incorporate both development and UX design. A background in art, I've worked on physical interactive installations. Most often I'm building web apps, which I can do with React or Vue. I have experience leading small teams.

Feel free to email, even if it's just for networking.

Yeah... these comments are kinda weird. Hate to say it but maybe they should go outside more lol, computer graphics always looked pretty bad at me, even the clips in today's nvidia presentation looks really unnatural. That's not to take anything away from the technology and the massive advances it represents, just compared to reality it's still really far from fooling a human brain.
I think it depends on context. There are a lot of sim games where the environment is very controlled and forums are littered with people who can't tell whether the occasional picture is real or in-game. A forest is hard to render accurately but a plane in flight is pretty trivial
>At the height of union fever back in the 80s it got so bad at one point that union activists

Were subjected to police brutality while largely peacefully picketing. Meanwhile the army was called in to do their jobs...

Apparently there was evidence of "excessive violence by police officers, a false narrative from police exaggerating violence by miners, perjury by officers giving evidence to prosecute the arrested men, and an apparent cover-up of that perjury by senior officers."

According to the independent police complaints commission, anyway.

Note the similarities to current protests in the US and similar attempts to depict police as simply reacting to "violent blacks".

If you want to see the full gamut of vicious state inflicted violence you can either be the wrong race, or you can form a powerful enough union and go on strike.

I live in France, being a union member here is incredibly dull, all day long people come with their employment contract, and you pore over the labor code and the various unions contracts to check the legality of various allegations.

at the top level the workers unions manage the unemployment insurance with the employers unions, and talk to the government before labor laws are changed.

While technically true, they signed out a long time ago from what Google ought to be or ought not to be. That much is evident from Google’s actions and the relegation of “Don’t be evil” and all that.

Yes, if all sides are saying law and order is a myth, they are probably all correct that it is.
Some people prefer to learn at work. Some people prefer to learn in their free time.

If you are the type that learns at work, then having nothing to learn at your work means you have nothing to learn. If you are the type that learns at home, not coming home exhausted from your work means you can learn more.
Don't buy it yet, usually oem versions are more optimised and better value overall.

Are you sure? Currently commercial owners have incentive to lobby to keep Prop 13, but if 15 passes they'd no longer have skin in the game, which should reduce Prop 13's defence warchest.
Mathematical abstractions are often at the wrong level of abstraction. Mathematicians mostly care about value semantics but programmers need to care about how it's realized in hardware too.

For example, sure, you can think of a list as a "monoid" where the add operator is concatenation of two list. But adding two lists is not a fast operation even using specialized functional data structures. So making concatenation a primitive for equational reasoning just results in really slow code.
It's exactly the same thing though, isn't it? I use both terms interchangeably. And it seems the term GIL is better known than GVL.
From the wikipedia:

> The expression problem is a new name for an old problem. The goal is to define a datatype by cases, where one can add new cases to the datatype and new functions over the datatype, without recompiling existing code, and while retaining static type safety (e.g., no casts).

Why should I care about recompiling? That's an implementation detail.

Taking the compilation stuff out, it looks very similar to classy lenses.

For what it's worth, look-and-feel is arguably more consistent on an OSS desktop than the average commercial workstation, these days. The vast majority of free apps and DEs are built on either GTK or QT, which have a broadly similar feel and can be themed to look identical. Meanwhile, closed/commerical apps are a mess of in-house toolkits and embedded web interfaces, and Windows even has several inconsistent styles in the base install.
Good to know.
As you work for Siri(Apple)
I want to learn and contribute in NLP fields as well.

1.Can you share your journey if possible?

2.Is Ph.D or masters necessary and how helpful the work related is in the company vs the research one does as part of Ph.D(because i have heard one doesn't get autonomy to researh one's own subjects under the supervisor but need to do what supervisor says)

3.Can you share any resource you lookup to learn and about Siri internal's working

4.How deadline works in research field ,currently working as a Front end developer deadline in my work as per ETA we can judge roughly,but how it works in research oriented field where one is unsure whether things are delivered as per requirement

5. Where do you see NLP future going?

I was expecting a different story. This may or may not be covid related.
Focusing on the long tail distribution in any disease isn’t usually helpful for making policy. If you look at any disease the possible side effects and symptoms extend to an absurd array of often contradictory outcomes (constipation / diarrhea). But usually there is a majority of side effects, symptoms, etc. that can guide things.

With COVID the media scaring us is never ending. Anecdotally the people I know who got the disease ranged from “mild cold” to “bad flu” and I don’t personally know anyone that died, although there are many of course.

We also don’t know how many deaths caused by COVID were actually caused by COVID. For example, if you die of a heart attack then your corpse tests positive for COVID, it will be marked a COVID death but that is entirely unknown if COVID was the primary cause of the heart attack or even a contributing cause. We don’t have much data, what we have isn’t always reliable, and the media jumps on any news immediately to scare us as they do with any story they cover because they need clicks.

Sweden was criticized by almost everyone for being calm and staying open with reasonable restrictions. Their economy wasn’t hit as hard. They had elevated deaths compared to some countries, but they certainly weren’t the worst, and some of the countries previously praised as “gold standard” are now having outbreaks because we have no cure and the virus always seems to spread throughout the population anyways. Ideally we are getting herd immunity while the hospital system is not overwhelmed.

In summation, health authorities still don’t know what is truly happening and any anecdotal data about people being sick for long period of time (like in this article) after getting COVID are rare situations at best or entirely unrelated (undiagnosed fatigue related illness) at worst.

Right, there's a reason why I used the somewhat ambiguous term "baby." Reagan wasn't the one to get it passed, but from what I understand he was heavily involved in promoting it. In any case, it's a conservative proposal, which I take as evidence towards "escalating-back-and-forth is bad" as opposed to "monopoly is bad." Reagan's involvement is a fun side note.
So basically China should be free to limit free speech all over the world? They are a big market and can therefore force companies to comply. This is what will happen if western governments don't intervene.
A total coincidence that 15 FWD: FWD: UNIon RUInEd My Life stories immediately dominate the conversation whenever a story like this hits the front page.
The issue with Chinese tech companies isn't really a matter of personal privacy -- it's a matter of national security.

Chinese tech companies can (and often are) required to work directly in conjunction with the Chinese military to further their goals and operations.

Also, the US has separate agencies and requirements for setting domestic policy vs foreign policy. The authorities that oversee what Facebook does is entirely different from the authorities that oversee what TikTok does -- so this is not a matter of a single group 'choosing' between the two. The laws of the US intentionally have more rigor for domestic issues.

It's worrying to see GPU cooling system dumping the heat directly onto the CPU, RAM and motherboard components. That's the only thing that left me skeptical after watching the presentation.
The same problem existed in patient data prior to HIPAA. It still happens, but the unauthorized disclosures have gone down due to automated trips. It used to be your check in clerk could run any reports on whomever they wanted without giving it a second thought.
This response actually had me LOL.

We're packed in this bar pounding beers with my dudebros...so we can build up immunity!

I got on my bike and road to Sturgis with 50k other bikers...so we can herd up some immunity!

I'm out here maskless and not social distancing, threatening people for not opening schools and complaining about not getting a haircut...how else can we get immune!

I think my read on other people is pretty spot on.
So far we've read the chapters on Asterisk, Audacity, Bash, BerkeleyDB, CMake, Continuous Integration, Eclipse, and Graphite.

Of these, I liked the chapters on Bash, BerkeleyDB, and Graphite better than those on Asterisk, Audacity, CMake, and CI. I had trouble getting through the chapter on Eclipse, although there were some interesting bits.

The chapter on Bash suffered a little, in my personal experience, because about 70% of it was a rehash (with a slightly, but not sufficiently, different perspective) of information present in the Bash man page, which I had previously read in a reading group with some of these same people.

But really, the chapter that's best to study is probably the one you're currently most interested in, even if it's "not as good" as another considered in the abstract. Just remember not to assume that the entire book is of the same quality, whatever your experience.
> The 2080 TI are going to overflow the used market, at 100-200$ at best

Not even close. 1080 ti's are still going for twice that and it was $300 cheaper at launch.
> Why should you have to continue paying on something indefinitely that you’ve already "paid off"?

Once you've paid off your property do you stop having a need for fire and police services? roads and transport infrastructure? trash collection?

Look at what the taxes fund and you'll have your answer why that doesn't really make sense.
Also students are not yet used to thinking about debt, or how things are paid for really, which means that the whole practice is predatory. Those perks are paid for from imaginary money as far as they're concerned.

I know some trade schools have attempted instead to do a risk sharing model where they are entitled to some fraction of your income for n years after graduation, but I don't think people are comfortable with that, especially at that age. They still imagine they will be millionaires by 32 and that means the school may get several times what you would owe with just normal loans.

Also you'd probably see more people getting paid under the table.
That's rather vague. But yes, no matter which JIT you always need some extra memory to run the JIT, and it creates a more optimized version while also needing the unoptimized version of the code, so it needs more memory.
aren't they banned on a large scale? just heard it, not playing
Who determines what workers "should" have by default? Once that moral determination is made, who makes sure it actually happens?

Nothing in the world happens without power. A union is a way to get some. "Should" doesn't mean anything without it.
3080

30 <- represents the generation, previously it was 20,eg RTX 2080

80 <- represents power within the generation, an 80 is near the top

Higher generation means newer. Higher number means more powerful within that generation. To compare across generations, you need benchmarks.
I don't see any authentification related suff like pouchDB have, like create an user with password hash, auto handle cookie in the browser, restrict document to user or group.
I agree, Prop. 15 seems specifically designed to dissipate the momentum behind Prop. 13 reform. I also strenuously disagree with the idea of statically allocating tax revenues to enumerated purposes in constitutional amendments that the legislature can't change.

I'm an expert engineer and data professional interested in consulting and architecting data pipelines. At Edmunds.com, I worked on a fairly successful ad-tech product and my team bootstrapped a data pipeline using Spark, Databricks, and microservices built with Java, Python, and Scala.

These days, I work for a "new media" company you probably heard of and, over the past year, I re-built an ETL Kubernetes stack, including data loaders and extractors that handle >10,000 API payload extractions daily.

My area of expertise includes data interoperability with Facebook Marketing, Facebook Graph, Instagram Graph, Google DFP, Salesforce, etc. That I'm a top-tier developer goes without saying. I'm interested in flexing my consulting muscle and can help with best practices, architecture, and hiring.

Would love to connect even if it's just for networking!
To save you the Google, SB 145 makes the laws around discretion in consensual yet illegal underage sex not explicitly reference "vaginal intercourse", so that they are equivalent for both straight and queer people.

This law is unequivocally good. You could certainly make an argument about the tenets before it, where people within 10 years of age do not have to register as sex offenders, but there is absolutely zero reason to special-case heterosexuals.
I can't speak for what's at the top of your Facebook feed. (I can hardly speak about what's at the top of my own!) This is something beyond my control. It's easy to sit back and call for Facebook to change the channel for me. It's much more difficult to be the channel of change. (Especially, I might add, when algorithms control what people see. Even so, when I directly respond to my friends, that's hard for them to ignore!)

The only thing I can be in control of, is what comes out of my own mouth. These are the things I believe in and stand for, that I earnestly think have a far better chance of rectifying things like racism, hatred, and our divided nation.

Having Facebook and Twitter do the work for us is alluring. But judging by its results so far, I don't think it's working. As Daryl said, he's a musician. Not a trained psychologist. If he can do it, so can you! Where should we invest our efforts? In what has been proven to reduce hatred, but is difficult -- or what we falsely hope will reduce hatred, and is easy?
I think the real problem with those systems is that it's relatively easy for a well-funded group or person to influence the outcome or outright abuse the system to their own ends. Pay canvassers ridiculous rates per signature to get it on the ballot, then flood the airwaves with ads supporting your preferred position. If your opponents aren't as well-funded, the deck is stacked against them.
> EDIT: For people comparing this to the Titan RTX, no. This GA102, not GA100. It's the cut-down version of Ampere. GA100 will come out, and it will be even more expensive.

That doesn't mean it's not the Titan equivalent for this generation. Titan X(pascal) and Titan XP were both GP102, and Titan RTX was TU102. AFAIK, only Titan V used the "100" chip, and that was sorta a fluke because there was no smaller volta chip. (and 3090 was explicitly introduced as the Titan RTX replacement)
It looks really huge.
There's so much handwaving about this part, even at the functional level (how is it supposed to work at the most basic level for the user? what's it supposed to look like?), that I kinda tune out every time that comes up.

I'll start listening when they have a working definition of what a "thought" is or what "translating" it into a "universal language" even means.
In addition to project local .vscode/settings.json and the still Beta Settings Sync, it should also pick up your user settings if you set up a dotfiles repository.
I just don't see how this will compete with Amazon or Amazon Prime.

You only get free shipping with orders $35 or more. I haven't checked recently but I thought you get that at Amazon without paying for Amazon Prime.
