Without ML, our business today is literally impossible (from a financial perspective).

I work in 2D animation and we were able to design our current pipeline around adopting ML at specific steps to remove massive amounts of manual labor.

I know this doesn't disprove your anecdote, I just wanted to point out that real businesses are using ML effectively to deliver real value that's not possible without it.
Never noticed a pause. But I don’t think I exercised it with lots of ephemeral creation
This is why almost all data scientists and ML engineers that succeed in many corporate structures are essentially "yes men".

I'd be more concerned about the fact that the Rust Evangelism Strike Force is hellbent on getting everybody to depend on their exhausts-all-32-bit-address-space-to-build compiler and toolchain -- in addition to whatever toolchain the project currently uses, at least as long as the strangler pattern is being applied to migrate the code base to 100% Rust. GNU software in particular has always been such that the core stuff is bootstrappable from just C.

But it seems, from an RESF standpoint, that the fact that any C code is out there running at all is a crisis-level problem.
I can understand $.(:name "Keli" :age 50) but not $.name("Keli" :age 50), why should the age bit go inside the parens? This introduces an asymmetry where the first key appears outside parents and subsequent keys appear inside (and as colon-initialed keywords?!)
Third-party cookies are going away across the major browsers. Hulu, Roku, and Xfinity all launched self-serve advertising products recently. Targeted video advertising is going to be interesting in the next few years.
Based on my experience, big problem I see is lack of self awareness. Often times, one being aware of strengths and weaknesses, knowing what will bring the best in oneself are very hard and even subjective questions. Having said that, this might be interesting to see progression in this doc as one's thoughts evolve.

For those with that level of self awareness, this will definitely work great.
Try the basics first, i.e. hiding of the posts from new accounts, IP and cookie blacklisting. See if it works.

Then move on to more advanced stuff, e.g. browser fingerprinting and behavioral pattern matching. If it's automated, there'll be a pattern. But the basic stuff can go a very long way.

As a bonus, you can put all new accounts into a single group, so that they would see each other posts, but without making these posts visible to the approved accounts.
hCaptcha founder here. You should be able to do this with some backend code and a small client side change. Happy to help make that happen. What framework are you using?
I would say, with respect, I don't think this experience is normal or standard. I've never been reimbursed for a conference even if it was exactly for the technology that company built their entire product with.
Kind of like if you're wearing a straitjacket, you don't need to worry about accidentally punching yourself in the face.
It's nice that Ubuntu has been very predictable getting releases out on a schedule, while Debian's approach has been "when it's ready", which could sometimes be a very long time between stable releases.
The point of this LPC session was how to incrementally introduce Rust in the existing Linux kernel, with all its existing drivers and syscalls and similar. A rewrite would indeed be a daunting and problematic proposition.

There are kernels written in Rust, such as Redox, but those are separate projects, and that's not what this conference session or article are talking about.

Standing reminder: the Rust project is not a fan of rabid Rust over-evangelism (e.g. "Rewrite It In Rust", "Rust Evangelism Strike Force"), and sees it as damaging and unhelpful. We discourage that kind of thing wherever we see it. We're much more in favor of a measured, cautious approach.
Authoritarianism is a reaction to the perceived failures of (classical) liberalism to address modern challenges.
While racial supremacism and facism obviously work well together (especially if you can confuse racial identity with national identity), they aren't actually related and King only seems to support the former. He seems like a rather revolting person from what I bothered to read of the Wikipedia page, but I don't see anything to support "the Republican has many fascists", unless you're going by a suffiently broad definition of "facist" as to include most of the US congress, Democrat or Republican, which doesn't seem to be what you're asserting.
Yes they both seem like pretty rough fast-food places?
I won't get tired of repeating the same comment in every topic that suggests Rust to be a great replacement of C in existing projects, that it isn't.

The safety guarantees that Rust provides are neither unique nor complete, and if we discuss the amount of effort necessary for bringing new interfaces like the one this article mentions ("one can define a kmalloc_for_rust() symbol containing an un-inlined version"), we should compare it to other existing solutions, like ATS [1], that are designed to be seamlessly interoperable with C codebases without giving up on the safety side of the argument.

Just a week ago there was a link in ATS reddit channel that advertised ATS Linux [2][3] initiative, that may be of great interest for the same people who are interested in bringing more memory sefety to Kernel development, without giving up on existing C interfaces and the toolchain[4].

Technically, yes.

In practice you can't really expect to distribute free or commercial macOS software without paying the $99 anual fee. Even outside the MAS.

Non tech users don't even understand what Gatekeeper is or how to disable it. Most will think an unsigned app is a virus or whatnot.

Even in Catalina you need to open the terminal to enable the "everywhere" option and disable gatekeeper. I'm sure this is only going to get worse from now on.
The noise isn't even the worst problem. What happens if a drone fails during flight (e.g., a bird flies into it) and it falls on someone's head? I don't really want aircraft, no matter how small, flying and landing around my neighborhood. (Nobody seems to think about failure modes when talking about flying cars either.)

I can imagine that after the first few widely-publicized accidents, the use of delivery drones in residential areas may be regulated out of existence.
You say that as if there are no dense cities in places that have a similar climate as Houston. What about Taipei, for instance?

Houston has a July average high temperature of 34,7 degrees C with an average relative humidity of 74,4. The same data for Taipei is 34,3 degrees C with a humidity of 73.

Yet Houston has a population density of 1398,76/km2 whereas Taipei 9700/km2, almost 7 times as high.

Data from Wikipedia.

Actually, perhaps this map says it best: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tkoekp0or12ppjc/Screenshot%202020-...

(If anything, building densely can create a lot of shade, which can be quite beneficial.)

Personally, it strikes me as profoundly illiberal that we allow and expect from local governments such complete control over private use of private property.

It is probably one of the most important policy issues from an economic/social perspective, and yet it doesn't have a clear valence in today's binary, identitarian political discourse. I see people from all backgrounds and affiliations arguing for/against upzoning/housing density.
In my AI class in college, we learned about first order logic. To me it didn't seem like we were really learning AI but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I guess it's because it made too much sense so in my mind it couldn't be AI.
Are you confusing CAST and STAMP? (Or maybe I'm mis-reading.)

STAMP is about the underlying control model. STPA is focused on designing in safety up-front. CAST is focused on analyzing failures.

In precision rifle shooting, milliradian is very common.

Minute of angle is also still common.

Scopes are sold with both. It sort of depends on the discipline. For example service rifle scopes are almost universally in minutes of angle, while in the Precision Rifle Series the overwhelming majority use scopes in mils.

Super confusing is when a scope uses mils for the reticle but minutes of angle for the adjustment. That's just terrible, but they exist.
well, plenty of names to play with:)

It's a useful quantity because the variety of units allow for the speaker to drop the numerical portion of a quantity of a substance.

Meaning, the phrase "gallon of milk" is ever so slightly easier to say/verbalize than "four liters of milk." Or alternatively, "half gallon of milk" vs "two liters of milk."

Likewise: "pint of beer" vs. "<half liter/5 deciliters> of beer", "1 cup of flour" vs. "<quarter liter/250 mL/25 centiliters/120 grams> of flour".
> What's the intuitive way to handle:

Most of the examples you provide are meaningless. What is the intuitive way of comparing a number and a function? There isn't one, the question itself is meaningless. Saying "hey look we found a way to come up with an answer by turning everything into a string" isn't right either, since it means you come up with the wrong answer in plenty of situations—like in the original tweet.

I'd rather have a library that gives you the correct answer in important common cases, at the expense of not being able to answer questions that don't have an answer. The solution JS went with was to get the important cases wrong, so that it could handle cases that don't have a meaning or use.
Main point is that "200 year supply" is not all that impressive. Demand growth can dominate that rapidly.

When coal was first becoming a mainstream fuel in the US, reserves were estimated as sufficient for 1 million years. Current estimates are for about 100-250 years (latter from BP's Annual Statistical Review for 2019). Demand increased somewhat, and consequences emerged. Now 150 years into the million we're phasing out coal as quickly as possible.

Breeders, thorium (a breeder fuel), and uranium seawater extraction are possible but have proved challenging or limited to date. Seawater extraction particularly presents formidable challenges.
Two things:

1) Politicians around the world are circumventing central banks with special laws, guaranteed loans programs.

2) Central banks can just "temporarily" buy treasury bills with fictional money -- the only thing keeping us from Weimar inflation is the fact the money hasn't trickled down enough, the population is on the decline, and most of the money goes into propping up asset prices.
The specific transaction this post refers to was 1813 bytes. It had 12 inputs that had to be signed for making it larger than average. For $10M I'd be willing to manually type out the 3626 hex digits, or if feeling lazy splurge on a $10 USB stick. Only 3 inputs account for almost all of the balance, so really it could have been moved for under 1000 bytes, which I happily write longhand on paper with a quill in triplicate before I'd even consider exposing the secret key to the internet.
Originally, we thought that Linux maintainers were asking us to only support kernels compiled with Clang, because they didn't want to support code built with two different compilers. However, in the session, Greg Kroah-Hartman specifically said that if it works to build Rust code with the LLVM-based rustc and C code with GCC and link the two together, and there aren't any problems in practice, then that's perfectly fine.

So, we're currently expecting that supporting Rust will not place any requirements on the C compiler you use, unless you want to use cross-language LTO (which we'll eventually want to do, but it won't be a hard requirement for a working kernel).

I dunno. You might be right, but another thing about that is whereas Slashdot had a moderation system that enabled voting along a dimension such as "funny", "interesting", or "insightful", I believe that a +1 Funny rating didn't actually boost your karma. So in theory you get something that is less inundated by sarcastic circle jerks of in-jokes than Reddit but less sterile and devoid of humor than hacker news. The no-nonsense attitude of frowning upon humorous mischief and misdirection is one of the first things that I noticed about this site, and, which while superficially appears to raise the level of discourse, I think is a sign of weakness, since a community that can't tolerate jokes isn't really a community at all. In fact at very least it goes against the ethos of computing, which always had an element of mischief and clever pranks. Look at the culture of the MIT AI lab or, well, Slashdot and its ilk to see the contrast.

Fedora works flawlessly (really) and the machine itself is a clear improvement on the MBP 2015s I had been harboring/nursing as a result of the disasters that were the butterfly keyboard and Catalina. Battery life is the only sub-excellent feature, but I am always near a plug. Pricing is equivalent to Apple. I am very happy with it. For comparison I have had several System76 machines and the build quality, while improving, is not first class.

There is a middle ground though isn’t there? Substack could support creators buying a domain through them and hosting content on that domain. If a creator decides to leave, they keep their brand, their audience, and their content.

The problem isn’t the infra, it’s that we need standards to support more portability. Remember when you couldn’t take your mobile number to a new provider?
Based on experience (40 years programming) were just as likely to learn good habits and practices as bad ones. Of course daily WTF things happen and we all make fun of them, but there’s no site like that to post when something goes right.

Programming is an ongoing learning process, and that means making mistakes and getting exposed to less than ideal solutions and habits along with the good ideas and practices. You can’t get either from tutorials or working on personal projects, because feedback and mentoring play a big part in making forward progress.
Take "White Fragility", for instance. Can there be unconscious racism? Certainly. But telling every white person that they are inherently racist simply because they are white... yeah, that's not how you "reduce the divide". (It's also both wrong and racist.)

I don't know what the answer is, but that wasn't it. All that did was tell people that they're dealing with flaming zealots with ridiculously out-there ideas. And it told whites that the author had selected them as being part of the bad guys, without actually knowing anything about them - and therefore that there was no point in engaging with people like the author, since all they were going to get was condemnation, regardless of what the reality was.
> Wright’s opposition to denser housing in his San Jose neighborhood has made him bedfellows with one rather uncomfortable partner for the self-described liberal: President Donald Trump, who has decried efforts led by Wiener and others to build “low income housing” in suburban communities.
“It’s an absolute nightmare for me to say anything that is so close to what Trump has been saying about the invasion of the suburbs,” Wright said. “There’s a very embarrassing and disturbing parallel.”

People are always very woke and liberal until it affects their privilege or their pocketbooks. Which is a huge problem. You get great responses when you take polls about whether racial equality and justice is important to people and that something should be done. But, if you try to do any actual, concrete policy, the polling rapidly drops.

> Linux is not "forcing adoption of HDCP" (it's just something Linux has a driver for)

What they actually said in the article:

> Historically, some features began as optional ones until they reached total functionality. Then they became forced and difficult to patch out. Even if this does not happen in the case of HDCP, we remain cautious about such implementations.

Interesting idea, but QAnon dates to at least 2017. Also, are people who believe in QAnon actually isolating? I would guess that if COVID-19 is a hoax to you and your social circle, you're continuing to meet in person.
> The idea was born from a mistake. One night near Death Valley, California, Wu set a camera to make a time-lapse series in the dark. A pickup truck drove by and washed out the scene with its harsh headlights.

> At first, says Wu, “I was really annoyed. But when I looked at the images, I was fascinated. Here was artificial lighting in a natural environment.”

The quote above indicates that Wu stumbled upon the technique by accident but, sandworm101 is correct, this technique has been known and widely used for decades. I know the technique as "painting with light" and a Google image search should convince any skeptics. Add "stars" to the search and you will see that the technique is often combined with star trails.

Using drones is a nice enhancement. The criticism about originality doesn't make Wu's images any less spectacular.

yeah looks like at the least you might have lines for "overall CS based jobs" and "overall tech industry" and see the same sort of fall off appears. While not all that scientific either logically if you see similaries you can cast some more doubt/support on the hypothesis that ML is special and failing. How is it doing relative to other "hyped" or even just plain technical hiring/firing trends.
Everyone is pretty sure that "rich people" should pay for everything, and that "rich" is defined as anyone that has 10x more wealth than I do. Whether you're making 20k or making 200k, everyone thinks that real wealth is one order of magnitude away.

> I think majority of people cannot live 25 minutes from their work for any cities that have 1M+ populations

I generally agree, though in cities like Paris you can get close. But 1M+ is very big by European standards. There are only 34 cities on the entire continent that fit that description [1], and there are multiple capitals [2] half that size (Dublin and Lisbon each have around half a million inhabitants).

Once you get down to ~300k or fewer citizens commute times drop a lot. That's really how the vast majority of the population lives.
