No, sometimes overflow is so rare the trap saves you time in the majority case. Also sometimes panicking on hardware trap is the useful thing.

If we had more ALU variety these discussions wouldn't pop up. Saturating arithmetic, bounded arithmetic, etc are all useful and safer by default in most cases.
Why type when you can copy and paste?

I always type everything out the first time I’m introducing something into a code base even if I’m taking something straight from the docs or Stack Overflow that solves an issue I’m dealing with.

It helps me understand how the data is flowing through whatever it is I’m doing, the structure of the code, and ensures I don’t leave in extraneous unnecessary flags and options.

And I’ve always done this, I much prefer engineers who work slowly and methodically, understanding what they’re doing.

It more than makes up for the “lost time” when you need to debug a complex system that’s on fire and people don’t even understand what the options and flags they’ve pasted in actually do.
Lol, obviously this 24% is meant to be energy preserved (i.e. the joules or calories) when going over from the feeding to the milk.
I edited the parent comment with a link to the docs.
I have seen this in practice multiple times.

A ‘prolific’ codewriter, writing a ton of code, most of which is thrown away.

Would we assume a novelist that types faster writes better stories?
I don’t think I was assuming, but it’s one if the most frequent misperceptions. It’s highly subjective indeed when it comes to your relationship with meat. But vegatarian meat replacements are getting ridiculously good, especially the last couple of years, if its just about the taste and texture.

And again, it’s not about dropping meat right now, it’s about seeing if you can cut down. Even eating it one day less makes an impact.

Just try it is what I am saying. See if there is something in your culinary palette that fills the appetite (and has no biological negative net effects)

agreed, though there needn't be a conflict. with automation freeing us from mundane labor, we could actually focus on doing meaningful work. work that advances our society globally, that helps to eliminate poverty and lack of education, etc. there is plenty of work to go around that, can't be automated which would allow us to create bonds in our society in a way that no factory work could achieve
“But we can’t let this place become known as a gay tourism paradise. Brazil can’t be a country of the gay world, of gay tourism. We have families,” Bolsonaro added

Bolsonaro, a former army captain, has long been notorious for his homophobic comments, once declaring: “Yes, I’m homophobic – and very proud of it.”

Bolsonaro claimed “homosexual fundamentalists” were brainwashing heterosexual children to “become gays and lesbians to satisfy them sexually in the future”.

He doesn't sound very democratic to me.

SARs are filed automatically any time the amount is over a certain number, I think the simplest one is at $10k and then there is a more detailed one for some larger threshold amount. There must be millions filed per week.

At least CA is working on it. The biggest polluters, China and Russia don't see to even acknowledge that any other country sees climate change as an issue.

Meanwhile, we are being pounded in Canada with extra taxes to discourage burning of fossil fuels even though we only emit 1.6% of the worlds GHG's. And a large part of that comes from home heating by natural gas, to which there is no viable alternative, so its not discouraging anything, its just another cash grab.
Yes, because your validation set performance is imperfectly correlated with performance on more samples (because it's of finite size), so it will tend to overestimate within-distribution. There's also the problem that you probably want to deploy it on data which was not exactly collected the same way. So you have issues of both internal and external validity.

In practice, at least for CNN classifiers on ImageNet etc, it seems to be a pretty minor issue overall.

"We all know that the best thing we can do is eat a local, veg-friendly (vegetarian/vegan) diet."

Really, why don't you take it one step further and reduce your diet to a kind of Soylient that comprises the most energy efficient veg.

How dare you eat veg that's not Soy, don't you know how inefficient that is?

Or maybe your statement about food is wrong and borderline authoritarian?

That was an example of people who receive "disagreement" simply by existing. My point is that a lot of people have recieved what you call "disagreement" and what I and they call "prejudice".
absolutely no doubt that this is a feature of the system.

I recently read "Treasure Islands: Tax Havens and the Men who stole the world" and can't recommend it highly enough. It shows that tax fraud and offshore banking is despite propaganda that "it's dead" very much alive and the US is a central player now. Hollywood still uses Switzerland and the Cayman's but a lot more convenient are setups involving Nevada, New Mexico, etc.

Offshore banking is a key component in maintaining control when an empire retreats/collapses. The French installed puppets in Gabon who let them launder their money until today in a similar fashion that the City of London and the more reckless jurisdictions (BVI) allowed the Brits to keep their loot which they stole in the past 200 years.

we had a chance to burn all this to the ground during the financial crisis but Occupy Wallstreet was just a "leaflet campaign" without teeth. You don't fight a real enemy that subverts the rules of democracy with democratic tools.

I'm curious about the specs. Back in 2018 you could already buy a China Mobile A3S from Taobao/Aliexpress for ~$60. That was the state telephone company's budget Android phone with a Snapdragon 425! Which is not really powerful but still way better than the usual Mediatek SoC you would find in cheap phones like this.

A good overview here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2we4OemMIs

I had this phone in my hand and it was nicely built so wonder Jio can release something better than this (given the price range)
Off the cuff thought on this (and I'll confess I've only skimmed the article).

The Game of Life is interesting to humans for the same reason it's hard for simple NN's to predict it.

I don't understand what is the purpose of this theater? Is there any doubt that UK will send Assange to the US?

I get your point. Though this research has been going on for a while - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52686660 - Would be helpful if the report did provide more details on the source for that figure.
Your comment seems to make the assumption that this is a technical problem. You're right that it'd be possible to make a YouTube site by oneself. If one did it with GCP they could be using the exact same hardware and very similar software as YouTube.

However, the real problem the parent talks about is financial. YouTube gets all this hosting at cost for Google. A YouTube competitor has to pay the AWS, GCP, etc. markups. They'd also have significantly less advertising income than Google. Plus, many of the professional content creators wouldn't even consider a platform that doesn't pay out ad revenue.
and the threshold is not inflation linked, or location linked. it is just a 50 year misused law that has successfully spent the last half-century stigmatizing the concept of having money to move in the minds of people without money who want it.

I don't think you should be downvoted. Admittedly, I agree with your opinion, but I also think you phrased it civilly and made a contribution to the forum.
Well, maybe I'm wrong and technology will outpace our looming problems. I hope that's the case but it would be foolish to depend on it, don't you think? It seems to me that your brand of thinking is one that comes to down to a simple mater of believing what it is convenient for you to believe.
My problem with this is that now every single production release is either pushed back by at least a day (multiple days if issues are found), OR there's code running in production that hasn't run through e2e tests yet.

Plus it adds a layer of complexity to your version control. I'm assuming you're running these e2e tests against a branch that's up to date with the latest master. What happens if I have 4 PRs I need to merge - they all might pass tests when run against the current master but as soon as I merge one, the other 3 haven't technically been tested with master anymore, so I'll have to re-run e2e, which pushes everything back by another day (per PR)?
Yes, but this is true of anything when you estimate some quality and pick the “best” from a group. See the winner’s curse.
We eat meat as part of our diet.

So saying 'animals are the problem' is like saying 'human existence' is part of the problem.

We ate meat before, we can continue to eat meat.

What we need to do is fix the carbon problem, and possibly the 'too many people' problem.

Regarding the first part of your comment. I can't prove what I am going to say due to reasons that will be obvious, but this is the best I can do right now.

I believe RCP 8.5 will not happen.

Why?

One more time, I go back to the 800,000 year ice core CO2 data. The earth obviously has a regulating mechanism that brought CO2 down from the 300 ppm range to 200 ppm. The way it did it is brutal and simple: Weather.

It is my hypothesis that the planet is reacting to the increase in CO2 right now by activating that mechanism. I think I can say that we are seeing more and more violent storms, hurricanes, etc. Which, in turn, precipitates more CO2 than we could ever dream of capturing through artificial means.

And so, what I am saying is that we need to start thinking about living in a world with massive powerful storms, "finger of god" class storms. The climate change problem isn't a problem for the planet, it's a problem for humanity.

> I'm a little confused about the thesis chain for that matter. I see at the beginning the "we cannot save the planet" thesis, but I'm not clear on what follows other than an ambiguous "clean-up our act" thesis. Clean-up what, specifically? By what metrics?

Me too!

Frankly, I think this is precisely the reason we need to make a push for stopping the lies and allow our brilliant scientists all over the world to focus on real solutions to real problems.

If I may offer a second hypothesis, it is that, if we stop the lies and allow them to do this work the remarkable genius of our global scientific community will reframe the problem in the proper terms and, with time, deliver relevant solutions, not to "save the planet" but rather to save humanity.

The 2 trillion we are talking about is 'corrupt' financial activity. Money laundering and this sort of thing.

Pentagon financial adjustments are not even close to being related.

Lastly the article you posted says 35 trillion in adjustments, but doesn't say how far back in time they went making adjustments, so that number is meaningless. Whoever this reporter is seems to not be familiar with accounting or finance.

> To circumvent the fake title/bait & switch practices, you could allow users to flag videos as misleading, vote them as spam, etc. Put the number of flags next to the video, add the ability to not even see flagged videos.

I've never not installed software because of the version number.

But this made me realize that Oracle skipped from database version 12 to 18, and eBS from 12 to fusion.

Imagine you've coded a little game played by bots in which all of them are greedy and they compete aggressively. How do you set up incentives so that they willingly cooperate, without changing their definitions in the code?

What's you're point? This is a normative discussion. The presence of NDAs says nothing about what is morally correct. For example, Harvey Weinstein systematically used NDAs to silence his victims and cover up his violent crimes.

> massive income inequality. If you're at the bottom of the heap watching massively wealthy individuals controlling a large portion of your daily life

this is a perfect microcosm of the confusion about inequality (you didnt say inequality but MASSIVE inequality, but the magnitude is not important). the inequality premise is non-causal to the actual problem, which you yourself immediately state: control. the issue is not inequality, but the loss of ability to transition from low to high income. inequality is a necessary, sufficient, and desired outcome of any system - by definition.

we should be fighting generational inequality, not inequality itself. the system needs to encourage mobility and allow for potential maximization. its ok that there are poor neighborhoods, but its not ok that poor neighborhoods have gang, drug, crime, and school quality problems. equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome. chasing down outcome inequality is murder-suicide. marxists and communists have killed hundreds of millions of their own people in the last two centuries.
