the faith every agent in the market demonstrates in the market is that the market itself will not collapse as a result of the behavior (or sudden non-existence) of the state.

faith and “evidence based belief” are perhaps more entangled in my head than yours, though. my only point is that at some point each actor comes to the conclusion that they have enough information, that this information is predictive, and that the future is comprehensible. it is impossible to know future outcomes, so on some level every best-judgment action people take in a market demonstrates this baseline “faith”.
Have you considered wireless charging? It seems like you’d save money over buying more cables, in the long run.
As someone who's been coding for 25 years, I agree with you.

I want code to be "clean and simple". Thats how I judge my own code and everyone else's. And the first example is indeed cleaner and simpler.

In my theory, you are only allowed to introduce more complexity (functions, frameworks, etc), when it makes it overall simpler and cleaner than before.
Maybe some things should just be kept on paper, at the end of the day.
3080 also uses GDDR6x. The 3080/3090 shortage is because of GDDR6x availability from what I've been reading. We'll know when we see 3070 sales/deliveries.
Don’t worry, 1-2 years and they’ll remove the port, meaning you (and the billion+ other people that will eventually get a new one) must use/buy a Qi charger (or MagSafe which really is Qi anyways).
The same people who hate on no-code also often hate when they have to develop some simple CRUD app (which is where no-code excels). I personally think that there will be a huge no-code revolution, because of the simple fact that there are still a lot of manual paper-based poor efficiency processes in businesses.

Without no-code software, the cost to automate a simple business process which takes a low paid admin worker 3 hours per week might be:

* Requirements Gathering (Let's say 1 day)

* Development time (Let's say only 5 days)

* Testing time (Let's say its fast and only takes 1 day)

* Bug fixing (Another day)

* Ongoing Support and changes (estimated 25% per year)

So at $500 per day and this incredibly conservative timeline, let's say that solving that simple business process costs $4,000 capex with $1,000 annual costs including infra. This saves 3 hours of work for someone on minimum wage... $2,340 per year.

A few problems:

* Problem Number 1 - This doesn't meet most companies hurdle rates (>2 year payback).

* Problem Number 2 - The problem wont be deemed 'big value' enough to get IT resource assigned

* Problem Number 3 - People in general want to work on 'bigger problems' and will hate going solo on a tiny piece of work to reduce a single workers week very slightly.

Ok, so that's fine from a company perspective, but look at it from the minimum wage workers perspective - They might be doing something that they KNOW they themselves could automate, but their IT department won't do it because they deem their time too valuable, and they aren't allowed to do it themselves because they aren't deemed knowledgeable enough.

No-Code shouldn't aim to solve all problems, it should aim to solve the problems that are below IT's threshold but still deliver user value, otherwise there is value left on the table and you have people doing work that could be better automated or put on a better platform.

It's not to replace everything, its to build something that's better than excel and paper, when your IT department can't/won't build it because of capacity/hurdle rates/investment.

No they aren't, that's just what people manufacturing fakes have managed to convince people is the case. (Somehow, it doesn't stand up to any scrutiny)
I guess that's the flip side if you build on 100% Apple specific stack - Cocoa, Objective-C/Swift, Coregraphics etc. Porting your app to other platforms later won't be simple.

Maybe decision makers at Sketch were looking at stats like majority of designers use MacOS - while that's probably true, that's not the case for devs, product people etc - who are now all using Figma to a degree too. Once you've got that cross-team use of the same app, you're not going to want to go back.

The times I've done this in the past I've had to rely on buried forum posts or "hope for the best" with the linux installer options. Includes ambiguous reports on how encryption effects ssd wear/trim/etc.

I recently upgraded my laptop and stuck a new nmve ssd with hardware encryption features. It does have some security trade-offs but does protect decently against common theft and is hella convenient that it's all mostly managed in hardware beyond a pre-boot unlocker and a suspend-state kernel hack. Still had to dig deeeep into github issues to get it going in Linux. Works out of the box with Bitlocker allegedly.
Wielding political power by virtue of being a large number of voters is literally what democracy is.

Unless you somehow think these people are somehow deluded or being manipulated or simply wrong because they do not agree with your political views, the ideal of democracy must be to have as large a part of the population as possible involved in politics and voting as possible.

If you have commercial Qt license the support is pretty good. The source code is open source too, so you can go and look at what's going on if you need.
Being a civilian doesn't grant you special plot shield. Civilians move the country's industry, which is directed towards the war effort. War is not about a front, somewhere away, in the distance, where soldiers throw lead at each other at high speeds. Everyone is involved in it one way or another. These were industrial cities related to that war effort, not summer seaside camps.

Besides... the drawn out and bloody WW, taken all the exhaustion, considering who they were up against, the cost of it...

I believe you are wrong about what we want to calculate.

It's not about whether you have a higher chance of getting infected if you are vitamin D deficient.

It's about whether you need medical attention in a hostpital if you do.

So if we have X people who got COVID, and out of those X people Y% needed to spend time in a hospital, and 80% of them had D vitamin deficiency, then it does not matter what is the Y% value.

The important thing is that the more severe cases had D vitamin deficiency, therefore you have a higher chance to get a severe case if you are deficient.

Right?

> It's the same in Academia though.

Haha, interesting analogy! (Math professor here.)

I'd say in many ways it's the same, but with one key difference. While administrators are fighting to push their visions, many faculty members tune out, do whatever work it is they want to do, and pretty much ignore what is going on overall at their institutions.

If you read Inside Higher Ed or the Chronicle of Higher Education, then you can read accounts of university leaders who were brought in to push for big changes, who boldly announced a change of direction, ... and who were simply ignored and then quit.
Even if that happened (which is highly unlikely) then the employees would still earn more money since SF/NY salary - 20% is greater than salaries outside USA.
The implication is that it is trivially easy to implement what is impossible in other languages in lisp.

So you never have to try and follow the moving target of an ever evolving ecosystem. You just pick a language version and build your own with surprising ease. The amount of time you save from breakages upstream is amazing and something no one talks about.
Mainly because they’re just going to use trademark rules that let them keep their most valuable brands as long as people think “Disney” when they see it. Them using the Mickey head everywhere isn’t a coincidence.

> According a precedent set in a 1979 court case, a trademark can protect a character in the public domain as long as that character has obtained what is called “secondary meaning.” This means that the character and the company are virtually inseparable: upon seeing it, one will immediately identify it with a brand.

I've been a Sketch user longer than most, think I started around V2 when Adobe discontinued Fireworks.

Until very recently I would have championed how critical it is for tools like this to be native apps but honestly Figma has proven that wrong, it just blows Sketch completely out of the water in terms of performance, stability and collaboration.

To make matters worse Apple just doesn't offer a machine powerful enough for the 3D part of my work, even if I spent $7000 with Apple I'd still get significantly better performance paying around $3000 for a PC build so Figma is a godsend working across all the platforms I use and all the platforms my coworkers use.

This pitch seems even more surreal as Apple moves away from MacOS, these technologies that the Sketch team are talking about being so important are clearly considered the past by Apple and technology like catalyst being the future. I honestly can't shake the feeling that a not insignificant part of Apple considers the future of the Mac as the place you go to run multiple iPad apps and because of that the technology Sketch is built with will eventually be discontinued within 10 years.

Not to mention, they've had 4 years since Figma's launch to know they need a collaboration feature shipped, it's been "Coming Soon" for years now. I actually presumed they were just doing a full webtech rewrite but judging from this it's just that writing those kind of features into a native app is a gigantic task.

Really a professional tool in 2020 that doesn't have Google Docs style collaboration is a broken tool, it's very difficult to work with remote workers without having presence within the documents.
Yes this was my thought too, does heat from a separate chiplet really effect the other cores maybe a cm away? I don’t know...
Yes, that’s the point of the Uber example, and while it’s trivial to realize what the hidden correlation is in this case it’s pointing out there could be other hidden correlations in this case we don’t automatically know. For example, vitamin D deficiency can be a symptom of an underlying issue that is actually what causes sicker patients. Or what’s even more likely, vitamin D deficiency is more prevalent among elderly and African Americans, who have been disproportionately hit harder by COVID because they’re more vulnerable to disease in general (former) or are more likely to be unable to isolate due to being an essential worker (latter).

And before we start debating these specific possibilities, the point is to illustrate we can’t just assume more than the sampling method dictates. Different studies are needed.
Instagram Explore section is quite good.
We have to applaud Reddit for their compensation strategy.

Every company that does this puts upward pressure on wages throughout the company.

The scenario where every company goes remote simultaneously is what we are witnessing play out. That means workers in every major city will have a 1000 different businesses to offer their skills to. The businesses that offer ‘local salary’ cuts will be on the lower end of people’s interest.

This still might be very bad for innovation (missing a critical mass of a range of experts accidentally trying new things in SV), but it may be very good for increasing wages in non costal cities (and the knock on effects that positively has on the communities there).

It's really not worth noting. There's a real link between vitamin D's usefulness that's part of the broader picture which is why vitamin D articles are getting increasing attention not just in hacker news. Your comment would definitely be worth noting if this was an article siting that many very sick covid patients have had multiple marriages (because they're old).

> I can understand why organisations like Amazon would set up these bureaucratic support "walls" and/or outsource all support to a Filipino call centre staffed by people that don't even know what Amazon is. The systems are designed to make getting support hard, because most people contacting consumer support literally don't even have a problem that good support staff could solve.

That doesn't make sense. You are in favour of systemic obfuscation and low quality support to discourage people who don't have problems from taking up the time of support staff? Even though the barriers make life hell for people with legitimate problems like the guy whose $1.5m inventory was destroyed?

Wouldn't it be better to handle both types of cases properly?

Instead of spending "hours with mentally ill people" (your terminology), why not perfect the art of triage and funnel people without problems appropriately?

If that's an unrealistic expectation, could you provide more detail about how it is unavoidable to spend "hours with mentally ill people"? You already provided details, but I can't see how you end up losing so many hours! There are techniques for handling these cases, my friend.

Your oscilloscope product looks fantastic, and the price and terms you sell it for tells me you are an interesting and valuable human being. I'm just pressing you about the other side of your story because I feel there might be a better way to handle the difficult cases that you somehow aren't aware of because you are too fundamentally helpful and an undiscriminatingly good guy. Or something.
As illustrated by this story (retold in countless ways):

The thing holding DCOM back was that the protocol was closed source and unspecified. It’s very difficult to make Microsoft’s version of DCE RPC work with other implementations let alone their proprietary object extensions.

If they had wanted interoperability, they could have implemented something more standards based as IBM did with SOM. But requiring Windows for all parts of distributed systems is very limiting.
Haven't you just described functional vs procedural programming?
Good effort.

But I feel sad that I won't ever get to try it. macOS (and eventually iOS) is dead to me as a platform.
Wordpress seems to be relatively adaptable. And it's very sucsessful, in the field of internet marketing, a very dynamic field.

Especially if you look at it as a low-code solution(instead of no-code): most changes can be done using plugins and visual builders, while some require writing a new plugin.

> few cities have [municipal heat] and the number keeps getting smaller each year

I'm assuming by "municipal heat" you mean district heating. Can you explain why those systems keep getting rarer in the US? Over here in Europe, we are investing a significant amount of money in expanding those systems and connecting more houses.
There are other places to start working on the stack which is not as actively hostile as place and route, e.g. simulation.

As for the incentive I'm fairly pessimistic. There is definitely no money to be made for a start-up in this space, it is way too conservative. Maybe the hobbyist intellectual challenge of working on some hard problems like constraint solving or formal property proving? There is a massive task of writing a SystemVerilog parser before you get there though and the SAT solving and property proving problems are present elsewhere with lowers barriers to entry.

“The moderation clearly isn't being effective, I would
question whether humans are moderating this, are looking
at this, and also I think it is failing to take account
of the context of these images."

Once again. Unless something gets big enough a human is never involved. The digitization of bureaucracy is a problem for our society. I would reckon that surely a company, especially of Facebook's size, would have all such reports in this category reviewed by humans and not just algorithms. A false negative in these cases is not acceptable.

> In the last election he voted Conservative, persuaded in part, he says, by that need to get Brexit done, and laughing now at the delusional hypocrisy of “democrats”, who wanted a second referendum “without the option that people had voted for the first time even on the paper!”

And there he loses all credibility. Very nearly everything that makes Brexit such a fiasco stems from the fact that "the option that people had voted for the first time" was not concrete and well-defined.
I trade in games as well and like any collectible, often sell items that are rare and expensive. As an individual doing this for a hobby, my margins are usually small, so selling an $400 console for $50 or so profit can go south pretty quickly if there is a dispute.

Because buyers are often collectors as well, they sometimes have unrealistic expectations for the condition of 25-30 year old hardware. A seller once had a concern with a power supply that was genuine, but worn in a way he was unhappy about. Once returns and replacement were completed (thankfully I had another), I now risk a loss, or worse, a dispute where I end up with neither money or the item.

Another time I sold a month of Xbox Game Pass I had received as a promotion. It was well under retail, but when the customer received it, it wouldn’t activate. I spent at least a week on chat with Miscrosoft support trying to resolve the issue. When it was finally resolved and the account credited, the buyer informed me they were a Game Pass Ultimate subscriber and the pass was prorated to 20 days, but they were expecting a month. No amount of explanation of what they purchased being different from what they expected would satisfy them. What I thought would be a simple $5 transaction turned into a significant stressor, and even offering a refund didn’t stop the persistent badgering. When platform reputation is on the line it’s no longer about the dollar amount of the transaction, but how it might impact future transactions.

Most of the time things are very transactional and I try to undersell and over deliver. One time in 20 or so
Oh, I've never experienced it, because I'm one of those new-tab spammers. That's baffling, but I shield myself from this already. I think I open even more stuff in a new tab, because for years now, one can't count on a correct behavior of the back button. I would like a browser to just restore fully the state of the page as it was, without firing any events whatsoever.

There's this really weird idea that you need high-bandwidth highly-multimodal sensory data to ‘truly’ understand things, but this makes no sense to me.

1. It's all just data in the end. The signals from your eye are not any more real because they are in response to photons.

2. Deafblind people exist, and can even learn to speak vocally. They might have misconceptions about the visual world, but it's certainly not true that they lack general intelligence.

3. As an objection to GPT-3 as a pathway to AGI, the only thing stopping us training these models on high-bandwidth highly-multimodal data is scale, anyway, so the objection doesn't work.

4. GPT-3 is clearly capable of reasoning in ways that can only be explained with more sophisticated world models than at smaller scales. People asserted reasoning was at a limit with GPT-2, and it just clearly isn't.
Absolutely horrific. I hope those responsible are identified and apprehended as soon as possible.
