The problem with everyone doing some of these tips is that I now just ignore all emails that appear to be from people instead because I don’t ever believe it’s from a real person, so unless I’m expecting an email from someone I won’t open these anymore and I just skim the subject. Not sure if people outside of the web community do this too, but probably only a matter of time if not.

This is telling. The user expects a software experience, but Tesla software is notoriously buggy.

This same experience with a Ford logo would end in a negative review.
Positive reviews are noise for me on any product. For products I don't care enough about to do independent research, I evaluate them exclusively by reading 1 and 2 star reviews, ignoring the additional noise of "the product didn't ship on time" type reviews, and deciding if the specific complaints made in the rest are things I care about.

Dan Hates Spam – A Public Service Website
I disagree with the premise of the article:

“Every SaaS company must start their onboarding sequences with a welcome message that is sent when a user joins the platform. This is a must by now, since everyone who signs up will expect some sort of confirmation of their transaction.”

These emails invariably waste my time. They repeat what the website already told me when I signed up. If I sign up for your SaaS, I expect your site to tell me what I need to know about what I can and should do next. I don’t want an email.

DuckDuckGo Founding Member in Global Privacy Control Standards Effort
"Within days, Citi had put him on administrative leave and his name was removed from the company’s internal directory. He was later terminated. “Mr. Gelinas is no longer employed by Citi,” the company says in a statement. “Our code of conduct includes specific policies that employees are required to adhere to, and when breaches are identified, the firm takes action.”

To me this is the most shocking part of the article. If there was no issue with his performance at work, his personal politics and beliefs should not be weighed in the continuation of his current and continued employment. To me this becoming the norm is chilling and echo's in my mind as 1984 becoming a work of non-fiction.

> Regular users don't care about security

They don't care enough to be inconvenienced for it, but they do care when their identity is stolen, when they are blackmailed with photos, etc.

This is what's good about the T2, it secures those sorts of things for regular users in a very convenient way. This vulnerability does not appear to really change that for regular users (although it likely does for orgs with high security requirements, i.e. those considering an APT part of their threat model).
Clarification: for hospitalized patients, because that's what the RECOVERY trial does (it is about testing drugs in patients who are hospitalized).

It does not mean does not work elsewhere (in early symptom, non-hospitalized patients, as they were out of scope for the trial), as this editorial[1] makes IMO very clear (it's from August).

Key sentence from that editorial:

> Although both trials [SOLIDARITY and RECOVERY] provide convincing evidence for patients requiring hospital admission, these findings cannot be translated to other disease states.

"The problem isn't really "brand" so much as "vendor lying^W^Wmarketing"."

I understand that it seems that every brand has downmarketed to at least walmart quality in most consumer goods, but that is a failure of branding and business/product management. Well, and the fact that once a consumer product "brand" hits a bump, it gets scooped up for its previous reputation and then stamped on junk.

It really is depressing that the internet has not produced some sort of historical tracker of brands (or politicians) and their actual quality and reputation scores.

Maybe consumer reports, which probably has more historical data than anyone in this regard, could produce something like this.

The ones I get with Google searches like "best affiliate programs" mostly seem to be static blog posts. They usually have a handful of programs and don't really change much over time. Then there are the actual affiliate networks, of course, but they usually require registration to even see what's in there.

I thought it might be useful to have a place where startups and others who don't get featured on these "Top 20" blog posts could promote their programs and I could then curate and distribute those in, for example, a periodic PH style newsletter.

I'm starting to think that I should choose a better problem to solve, though.

Question to those in the know -- are these roof glass panels attached to the car in a similar way to windshields? I recall that when I had my windshield replaced, they told me that the glue would need a day to bond and not to slam the doors or the glass would just pop off.

At the very highest level of soccer (or any game for that matter), it is not down to physical skills anymore. It becomes a matter of mental games- reading your opponents, making anticipations and react in the moment under immense pressure. The only sport in which I progressed the most is FIFA online "weekend leagues"; it is easy to reach "Gold 2" but after that you have to master reading the game and your opponent.
Oracle is pursuing a dubious interpretation of copyright that puts the entire software industry at risk of chaos. This is deeply irresponsible, and would be irresponsible even if Oracle's theory had a leg to stand on. And nevermind software, allowing Oracle's position to prevail would call into question the legality of every set of facts that are freely used across many knowledge domains.

Sorry, I just re-read my initial comment and I think the way I wrote it was misleading.

My case was about the allow-scripts directive of the sandboxed iframe, which I thought was linked to the csp mechanism, but now that I checked the documentation, it seems that I was wrong.

I basically display a random HTML document in an sandboxed iframe with disabled scripts. When you do so on Chrome and Firefox, the event listeners injected inside the iframe from a script in the parent frame still works, but on Safari it does not because all the scripts (or events) inside the iframe are disabled.

So rather that relying on this mechanism, I used DOMPurify to filter all the scripts.

I think there's a tangible difference between something like this and a recall. A recall is a single thing going wrong at a large scale. Audi having water pumps that can short-circuit in common scenarios [0]. Samsung using underspecified capacitors on their TVs [1]. Generally, this was a single mistake that had large consequences.

However, if different things keep going wrong at a smaller scale... That's a problem with management and process, not a single mistake echoed at scale.

I'm deliberately using SQLite here because my use-case is read-only. https://fivethirtyeight.datasettes.com/ is a demo that I've been running on Heroku for over a year now - the trick is that if your data never changes you can package up the SQLite .db file as part of the deployment.
When parts of a chip are turned off for binning reasons, it's because those features take up a large area and those large units containing a defect can be disabled wholesale and still leave you with a usable chip. This usually manifests as disabling either whole cores, or substantial portions of last level cache memory.

Features like HyperThreading or IOMMU are integral to the design of functional units that aren't optional. Those features aren't implemented as separate physical regions of silicon that take up non-trivial space, so it's very unlikely that a defect could break HyperThreading without breaking the entire CPU core, or that a defect could break IOMMU functionality without breaking the entire PCIe root complex. Disabling features like this does not meaningfully change the fraction of dies that pass quality control.

The IOMMU in particular is probably not going to be affected by overclocking, because it's probably in the same clock domain as the rest of the PCIe IO stuff, and that clock domain doesn't usually get overclocked when the CPU or DRAM is overclocked. So there's no reason to expect IOMMU functionality to affect what CPU clock speed a given die can reach.

Great site!

Seeing durability over time would be helpful, maybe a graph or recent rating trend indicator. It’s very frustrating to buy in late to a quality product/brand just to find that have cut costs and it’s not as durable as it used to be.

Would also be great to correlate that to source establishment to help me know where it’s best to buy or find used.
Personal experience:

I went through Triplebyte personally a few years back - twice. I was able to pass their evaluation/interview without any prep and got in to the matching phase.

The first time: I got matched with one company which ended up hiring someone before I could interview and another company that declined to go further after a phone screen.

The second time: I wasn't matched with anything.

The only reason I ended up trying to go through them was because I had a virtually nonexistent response rate through the normal application process while looking for my first job and I thought it would help me get through the initial resume filtering stage which is where I assume I get dropped all the time.

Hello Peter! This article presents the solution but to explain a little bit more, the general configuration for eSignature in Woleet Sign is the platform generating keys for each signer (generated randomly in each request) and then send private links by email and OTP SMS if a phone number is provided. So in the end Woleet timestamps a proof that the person controlling a specific email and a specific phone number had a specific document in his possession and agreed to sign. It's also possible to use our signature system with your own keys associated with people with verified identities (KYC), to comply with "advanced" eSignature regulation in Europe.

It's a design that is getting sold to people who are getting starry eyed over other aspects of the car. They don't care that the fit and finish is befitting an Aveo. They care that they're driving a sexy new EV from the leading manufacturer of sexy new EVs. From the perspective of "keep Tesla relevant and financially solvent-ish" it's a great design. They know what the people they're selling to care about and what they don't and the latter isn't getting much attention.

It's like how the Tacoma has been the turd of it's segment on paper for 20+yr but still flies off the shelves. Clearly the metric don't tell the whole story. In both cases there's an emotional value proposition that's doing a lot of heavy lifting.

And since I know in advance that this comment is gonna piss off a hell of a lot of people here (if I had to pick a demographic that will have both a Tacoma and a Tesla in their driveway HN would be about the perfect fit) I'll ask in advance if any of those people would like to tell me why I'm so wrong.
To add to the points others have made: If I see an email with a name in the title I don't recognize, I instantly think it is spam.

Please do not do this, it neither helps with your credibility nor does it help to build a "connection". I want to know where this email is coming from, and if I have signed up at Spotify, I expect to recieve my emails from Spotify, not Tom whoever at Spotify.

Unfortunately, your correction is still misleading because it fails to capture what really sets GPT-3 apart. Ironically, GPT-3's limitation also highlights its strength. As it is not capable of learning (few shot or otherwise) in the strict sense of permanently changing its parameters based on examples, all its demonstrated capabilities are completely at inference time. It somehow configures itself at inference time so that state machines which produce plausible continuations of whatever pattern it was fed, are most probably generated. This means that whenever it succeeds, it is much more flexible in how it produces its responses. It generalizes on and continues those implicit patterns in the provided input.

This paper however, is not replicating that flexibility. Their proposed model is much closer to expectation maximization than it is an instance of what GPT3 does. The novelty of their work, what makes it genuinely useful, is they provide a practical and fairly general way to leverage pre-trained language models to produce classifiers for specific tasks using a very small amount of labeled data. Requiring less effort compared to what would go into fine-tuning. This approach to distillation is an instance of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-supervised_learning.

Compared to GPT-3, this approach remains at a severe disadvantage when amount of effort and time required to gather data and train something useful is accounted for. On the other hand, if you can fit your problem into the format proposed by the paper, you will likely have more control on the final model's behavior using a small amount of labeled examples (for your specific task), at a significantly lower cost of computation at inference time. Focusing on parameters however, is not even wrong.
I mean, I think the term 'inventor' is probably pretty unhelpful, in that in the popular imagination it _is_ a lone genius, and you're never going to stop people thinking that.
Doesn't the nature of the tower mean you could add it in and it would just slow down computations that required it? I'm guessing the dynamic nature of the languages is the factor in leaning on?

That is, both have the surprise for most people that (/ 1 3) doesn't get rounded or truncated by default, due to the default of supporting rationals. You have to coerce into a floating point, right? Couldn't you do the same with exact reals? Put them at the top of the tower and maintain existing projections through the tower?

Edit:. Note that I don't think this precludes the algorithms here. Just that a type system that could use the tower could be augmented to get here. If that makes sense. Hence why I would think it would be mentioned. It is the expectations that things project in one direction that folks want? Right?

That’s not at all what the T2 is. It’s a multi-purpose processor that handles some security related services (like the Secure Enclave), acts as the SSD controller, handles the camera light, touchID, and other stuff.

It’s not there as a ‘bridge’ - plenty of macs without T2 processors run macOS 11 and Siri with full feature parity, and neither of those things relies on the T2.

Be careful about how you frame that. While this is true of some people who engage in activities like this, there is also the "ends justify the means" group. The latter does believe what they are doing is right and moral, and that being right and moral justifies behavior that is illegal. It's easy to be cynical and assume that the latter group is just the former group deluding themselves, but there are people who genuinely think that way. Addressing them requires a different approach than addressing those who just want power and control by any means.
