Feel free to update the list with ratings from any aggregator you prefer.

Also, when you say LOU2, do you mean The Last of Us II? I'd like to point out that Rotten Tomatoes is a TV/film ratings website and so does not have a rating for that video game. As such, if that is what you meant by LOU2, then you clearly have no idea what you are talking about.

RT is also an aggregator of reviews, so any rating on RT of a film like Cuties is not "RT's rating", but rather a score calculated from professional TV/film critics. If you think most critics are bad at doing their job then fair enough, but this entire subthread was about a claim that Netflix has terrible programming compared to "Hollywood". Not sure who you think is better equipped to judge such things besides professional critics, except of course your estimable self.
I wonder why every single comment I leave in this thread is getting down-voted. This community has truly deteriorated over the years.
Testing didn't really start until March, so you can't possibly know the answer to that.

We're already back to average death levels (maybe even below average if the recent provisional numbers hold up):

We thought Covid was an order of magnitude deadlier than the flu, but it's looking more and more like that's not the case. Covid may have hit a large population of vulnerable people with weak immune systems at once, and is currently becoming less deadly as it spreads among younger, healthier populations.

Covid had the element of surprise in the spring, for both immune systems and healthcare systems. Going forward, unless it mutates into some hellish form, it's not likely to continue.
Ah gotcha. We're on the same page.

It records ~40 days of temperature in a certain range, and remembers it till it senses the light of spring. If it's put into a dark room after 40 days, it waits till it senses light to flower, so it must be remembering those memories of cold temperatures.
I disagree, I’ve found a very significant difference between pre-ground and freshly ground coffee.

There are volatile organic compounds in coffee that begin to dissipate and react with oxygen as soon as they are exposed to the air by being ground.

I’m no coffee snob, I’m not advocating a high end burr grinder, the cheapest one on Amazon will do (~$60).

Same with the brewing method. Aeropress is great too, but anyone can find Meltia pour over filter holders and filters for $5 at their grocery store.
So if I buy this then do I actually buy a license? Is this license transferable? For example if I am the last owner of the car then can I transfer it to a new car when I return my old car?
Well I don’t work in Clojure at all anymore. But I guess this isn’t substantially different from how I work. The biggest difference is that I spend most of my time sending whatever speculative work to the compiler (TypeScript) or the test runner. Both of which are run in various forms of watch mode. When I worked in Clojure that’s pretty much how I worked then too. My flow now is almost entirely contained in VSCode, and the biggest change since I switched from Clojure is that I’ve embraced the IDE, static typing and a debugger.

I very rarely stray far from real TDD (red -> green -> refactor), and I very very rarely run whatever service I’m working on. The big exception is when I do (web) frontend work, which used to be my bread and butter but has been fairly limited for a few years.
Waymo does simulations? I have to update my surveillence program design. Pretty sure they’re able to track me, and do. I’m a vocal activist against their data collection, have approached them and taken photos to make the drivers uncomfortable and tweeted about marking them with red paintballs to indicate recording (goal: make them signal their collection activity).

Literally every day I am greeted by patterns of Waymo vans, like 2 the moment I leave and at the majoroty of my destinations one+ buzzes me. They box me in at stoplights, park at my destinations. I know it sounds crazy, but a pretty simple program with a few compartmentalized functions would enable the legal team to feed my phone carrier loction stream into the dispatching system; could also be an element of prediction as well. None of the drivers or engineers would know what they’re building. The end result would be a surveillance system that can follow targets. The diagram is just pencilled on paper, but I’ve been deep enough in Silicon Valley to say it’s plausible. I also made a short story on SoundCloud, same handle.

What’s the economic value of this data? An element of my message is also that they’re profiting off of homeless people who can’t opt out; eg. they could be targets for training a prediction system, since they will always be available and be in the same few locations. I want an opt-out function.

I’ve been meaning to fugure out how to CCPA request their data, with my photo, license plate, photos of my car and bike.

RCV eliminates the spoiler effect, but I don't think that necessarily means that 3rd party candidates have a higher chance of winning. I don't know.

It is nice to be able to show your support for third party candidates in the way that matters most, by actually voting for them, even if they still have little chance of winning. It's nice to be able to do this without throwing your vote away. You no longer have to choose between strategic voting and showing support for your favorite candidate.

Even with RCV there will still be political parties with varying popularity, and there will still be 2 at the top that are most popular. At least we wont have to have candidates strategically drop out to avoid being a spoiler any more.

Just a heads up, the viewport scrolls in Firefox on Android while you're painting. Everything still works otherwise, but it makes it hard to draw because the canvas is moving with your finger. I'm guessing it has something to do with the URL bar changing the viewport height because the extra space seems to be roughly the same vertical height.

>which human drivers often don't do (and may not expect other vehicles to do).

This presents an interesting problem. It's obviously easier to program something to follow the law, given it's unambiguous. But the question is what are we optimizing for? The fewest crashes? That's probably the right thing to do given crashes are bad. In that case, isn't it better to do what people would expect other cars to do? But are Waymo constrained by the fact that if a self-driving car is programmed to get a ticket they could be held liable? Probably.

I think the moral side of self-driving cars is just as hard or a harder problem than the technical side, and we haven't made the decisions as a society that we need to. If the government doesn't step up soon to lay out how this is going to work, the corporations will. And guess what: they'll choose whatever costs them the least amount of money. Not what's best for society.
I strongly disagree. We can argue where exactly the line should be, but most people should agree that pedestrian's shouldn't be able to just suddenly jump out in front of a fast-moving stream of heavy traffic and expect everyone to stop across all lanes for them.

As a society we have agreed that the laws in most places are "Pedestrians should cross the road at these designated spots, where they have right of way, sometimes only when given a specific signal". Sure, in some places it's become acceptable to cross the road outside of these "allowed" circumstances if you feel like there's no risk, but at that point you should also assume all liability.

FWIW I am for the pedestrianization of city centers and adding protected bike lanes everywhere possible, but I do think when there is a road, we all have to follow the agreed upon rules.
I would prefer to see RCV implemented on smaller-scale elections first (state house/senate->fed house/senate->presidency). Don’t get me wrong, RCV is fundamentally sound and the future of voting but I don’t want the inevitable hiccups to be used as reasons for it not to be rolled out nationwide.
I think it actually increases the chances of a common 2nd choice winning.

Extreme candidates are only going to draw from their limited constituencies, but a choice that's "nice, but not my top choice, but I'd like them if my top choice doesn't get elected" candidate for a lot of people actually does really well in this sort of system.
Nice site.

But it does when an entity becomes a common carrier.

Mailchimp doesn't have that status. Perhaps it should. Perhaps all companies listed on the stockmarket should fall under this status. It would have pitfalls but overall it might strike the right balance.
They are good. We are just better. And I'm sure there are many other civilizations in this galaxy that are much better than we are.

My main question is how/if DeepNote addresses issues of reproducibility. Is this a priority for your team? You mention it a few times in your post here, but there is not so much in the docs -- I looked it up in and got just to this:

> Even though the Custom environment cache is implemented using Docker images, it doesn't primarily serve the reproducibility problem. The aim of the feature is to significantly speed up the start time of your projects. In other words, you should consider it to be only a cache at this point.

My experience with Notebooks suggests that the main (computational) reproducibility challenges were

A) 'hidden state' information (e.g. cells executed out of order, variables changed and then reverted but not re-run); and

B) no clear infrastructure for documenting/caching dependencies (I see you have a terminal option, and the web-based access should address some of this, but something like 'conda install environment.yml` doesn't seem possible out of the box.)

I would understand if these issues are not priorities for you, I don't think most data science projects need to be run in the far future and most teams can informally sync their dependencies.

If reproducibility is a core priority, do you plan to write something about DN serves that purpose? I'd be glad to take a close look if you do (I have written/worked a fair bit on this in the past).
What are the greatest advances in CS of the last decade?
No, you do not understand Section 230 of the CDA. It simply states that all interactive computer services are not liable for content their users create. It says nothing about editing, moderating or curation. It just waives liability for all interactive computer services.
The short term answer is probably going to be "the driver, until this becomes a sufficiently common issue that legislators get involved"

The longer term answer is probably going to be "AI insurance". The bigger question is whether it will be the vendors or the owners who pay the premiums. My hope is that the onus would be on vendors, since it's their software, but my gut says that the cost will instead fall upon either owners or the taxpayer.
1. The person in the car is also a person, why shouldn't they have right of way.

The prior probability of you being wrong about facts in another field is fairly high.

The prior probability of the researcher being wrong about facts in their own field is much lower.

Therefore the default assumption one should have when reviewing research from a field that is NOT their own is closer to "I am the idiot" than "The researchers are the idiots".

in my humble opinion.

What doesn't make sense? Surely it shouldn't be too hard to even say "air bags deploy when there's x amount of force, so they would have deployed in the simulation" let alone have an actual physics simulation going on.
Yes, I believe that's correct.

SUBRs arguments are evaluated before they are passed to the SUBR - this is effectively just normal a function familiar from other languages.

I thinnk an FSUBR (or FEXPR) essentially gets the entire argument list unevaluated and then is responsible for evaluating that according to it's own desires.

We have this for all elections in Australia. It works great and allows you to vote for your single issue party but fallback to a more mainstream or centrist party without spending your ballot.
If there was a common cultural idea generated of "blame the person, not the place that serves the content" then that would solve that issue. Personally, I see that we're currently heading away from that, and while we've never had it fully it still appears to be going towards the "blame the service provider" route.
The position has existed for 15 years. The longest tenure, seven years, was that of James Clapper. The first line in his obituary will reference his infamous perjury before Congress.

In all of the incidents, air bags deployed. 5 of the 8 incidents were in simulation. The simulations likely have extremely realistic models for safety critical features such as airbag deployment (which relies on specific sensors in the vehicle).
There is a lot of research on this you can follow up on but short story on your first two points is a) a combination of old stock sales and rezoning is pricing existing residents out of neighborhoods, and b) the money isn't effective as stimulus, it's "parked". Besides the fact that "trickle down" theory has proven a failure at this point, there is no local value to a non-resident whose economic activity is done elsewhere not living in housing that is also not rented.

I think your last point is clearly true also, but the balance isn't obvious.
As a thought experiment, how would such a system change the current US presidential election?

I'm guessing that Trump would dominate the first round (a plurality would put him as a first choice), but I'm not sure what would happen once we factor in lower-rank choices of the majority would would probably vote against Trump (put him at the bottom or not at all).

EDIT: thinking some more, I'm guessing that Biden would have a ton of ballots in the #2 and #3 positions. Sanders and Warren would be prominent in the #1 position. And Bloomberg would be in a fallback position across many ballots (including Republican ballots). Not sure about Harris or Buttigieg.

Well, on the other hand, is there something inherent in housing that requires those motives?
Where does Reclaim the Net claim Mailchimp is the federal government, or does not have a right to make these decisions? Nowhere: that appears to be a strawman.

It is perfectly legitimate to be angry when companies start restricting their services to political allies, or arbitrarily blocking communication for people who disagree on who to vote for. Freedom of speech is a value encoded in the constitution because it is important, and because societies have learned over and over what happens when it's lost. It's the first thing dictatorships get rid of for a reason.
I pretty much exclusively rely on:

csvlook -I | less -S
or
csvformat -T | less -S

(-I to avoid mixed data-types being displayed weird, but I don't consistently use that)

from csvkit - https://csvkit.readthedocs.io/en/1.0.2/scripts/csvlook.html

Tons of useful CSV tools in there - csvcut, csvjoin, csvgrep.

csvformat -T

Makes most CSV much more manageable for a shell pipeline, as tabs are easy to deal with and unlikely to be in the actual data

People always trot out that line. And it’s always the same people who have plenty of disdain for the rights of private businesses in every other context. Do you think that private businesses should be allowed to discriminate on racial grounds, religious grounds, sexual grounds? Do you think businesses have the right to run their workplace however they want, including encouraging sexist and racist jokes? Be consistent.

This is such a low effort take, such obviously motivated reasoning, that wouldn’t deserve response but for being so prevalent as a way for otherwise thoughtful people to stop thinking and not confront the hypocrisy of supporting mass corporate censorship because it supports their favorite political party.

Which is not to say there’s not a nuanced argument to be had, but your one-dimensional argument isn’t that.
They actually don't. They are forbidden from acting with other ips in regards to aliging prices/services.
