Teamliquid.net is an interesting case study. It grew in the 90s out of a Starcraft Brood War clans' website and the forum blossomed into the one stop shop for Starcraft content.

In 2011 when SC2 came out, r/starcraft became a huge community hub that supplemented with TL synergistically. Reddit brought a wider audience to more advanced gameplay and discussion, and it slowly enhanced the TL audience with fresh blood. On top of that, a ton of other Esports blossomed, and TL became huge hubs for discussion of those games as well.

TL was massively aided by its benevolent leadership and policy of hiring very honorable players who were respectful and classy. Their players ended up doing well in DoTA, as well as some limited success in SC2.

Then streaming with Twitch came through and it's insane, every single player and commentator has their own subsample of fans, who give donations and take such joy from this content.

So, thanks to TL, one great community on the Interwebs!
So many people looking at Sweden which is strange since it’s so middle of the pack.

$5/TB with only a guarantee of 100mbps is kind of unacceptable no? I definitely think you would have benefited from finding a cheaper datacenter, or moving your profit margins elsewhere.

Honestly seems really interesting sans that tidbit, would be interesting to have unlimited 100mbps but gigabit at $5/TB or something like that. But $40 just to fill the drive is a bit much, and with being hard disk with only 4GB of RAM I'd think backups are what this is targeting, and not something with a lot of activity.

Looks like a hobby project so it's no big deal, just giving my opinion.
A lot of Nihlism is about recognizing that even if everything is without intrinsic meaning and arbitrary subjectivity, that you can assert yourself to a meaningful life in spite of it all. I find that a compelling argument personally.

There’s no conclusive evidence of that.

On the other hand, there’s overwhelming proof of the US interfering in the politics of other countries, from coups to invasions. Especially in Russia in the early 90s. And several coup attempts just this year.

"Self-hosting" can be a bit tricky to define for Forth. A typical implementation would start with a few words defined manually in assembly, and build the rest up from there.

That aside, you need to account for multiple implementations. E.g. for Python, CPython is written in C, but PyPy is self-hosted (kinda; it's complicated: https://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/architecture.html#layers).
"Russiagate", as I perceive it, refers to the four-year narrative pushed by the collective media that Donald Trump himself colluded with Russians in order to steal the 2016 election, among other things.

Taxpayers funded a multi-month, multi-millionaire special counsel to investigate these claims. Nothing came of it.

I have to agree. I've been a weekly reader for over 5 years now and I always find their analyses of my own country (Canada) more eloquent and poignant than our own media. I do recommend carefully choosing which articles to take in without a grain or tablespoon of salt. They have excellent practices but they still have an agenda and a world-view through which they frame things. Sometimes I think I'm being smart and reading between the lines but as the thread's target article aptly points out: I'm so swamped with information I never really go down the rabbit hole of proving/disproving my thoughts on articles.

I see the paper as a friend who I find annoying in a few ways but that I nevertheless appreciate and generally trust.
From the video:

5:38 [5:54pm] as reported by media outlets, the fire brigade arrived approximately 4 minutes after initial call was made to the station, at 5:54pm
4:48 [5:56pm] ..from this point at about 5:56pm the temperature inside the warehouse start to rising rapidly..
5:15 [5:59pm] the sound o fireworks start being heard, approximately 5:59pm, [titles over the gates: 'Closed Closed Closed'] it shows that many windows and doors are shut, according to the experts, confinement creates hotspots, areas of high temperature in which ammonium nitrate can get close to its combustion point
2:31 [6:07:44pm] .. small explosive charges as fireworks..
2:50 [6:08:18pm] single point explosion

Does it mean that the fire brigade could have chances to survive ?

- if they open all the big gates soon after they come, making an airflow and avoiding confinement:

would 'the temperature inside the warehouse start to rising rapidly' as well and
would it make the situation [in this case/in theory] better ('confinement creates hotspots') or worse (more oxygen) ?

- if it could help (in this specific situation?), what was needed to make such decision ?

What was the best they could do, and what when having full situation awareness (run away ??) ?
Whoever, who is not a diagnosed gambling addict and has a spare dollar above the amount of savings he would need to maintain their living for a couple of months without income, should be allowed to voluntarily invest that dollar in whatever he wants. No matter how risky that is, what education/experience or how much more spare dollars does he have.

Whoever invites others to invest should not be allowed to knowingly make blatantly false claims.

Any regulations beyond this are communism.
>It used to be (this tells you how old I am)

Why do you say that? Maybe it's atypical but MIT seems to have the same calculus and physics sequence, taken in parallel, that they did ages ago.
That is incorrect. The Mueller report clearly showed a great deal of coordination, and could not reach accusations because of limits placed on the investigation.

A Mueller investigation with different parameters would have reached very different conclusions.
I feel this is bad news. Some things should be forgotten. In my country your record gets soft wiped after 8 years. With this the employer could just look up your name.

>"I wouldn't call it a small reaction mass. A shit ton air is needed to feed the compressor. A jet sacrifices efficiency to get as much mass thrown out the back as fast as possible."

It's the other way round - a Jet gains efficiency the more air mass it can 'process', because larger mass means you need to throw it out at a lower velocity to get the same impulse from it. If you compare formulas for momentum and kinetic energy, which are, respectively:

p = m * v and e = 0.5 * m * v ^2

You will see that energy needed for higher velocities grows quadratically, while the momentum you get from it grows linearly.

basically that's why we have Turbofan engines with high bypass rations, to increase efficiency of passenger Jets

>MLflow is an all-encompassing "ML platform"

Not really. We're trying to use MLflow with our "ML platform"[0]. Namely, it can save a model that expects high dimensional inputs, which is most models I've seen that aren't trivial, and can "deploy" the model but with an expectation of two dimensional DataFrame inputs. Apparently, they're working on that.

There are also many ambiguities concerning Keras and Tensorflow stemming from "What is a Keras model? Is it a Tensorflow model now they're integrated? Why are Keras models logged with the tensorflow model logger when you use the autolog functionality?". These are shared ambiguities, as there are several ways to save and load models with Tensorflow, and we're looking into the Keras/Tensorflow integration closely. MLflow uses `cloudpickle` and unpickling expects not only the same 'protocol', but the same Python version. Had to dig deeper than necessary.

One other problem is when a model relies on ancillary functions, which you must be able to ship somehow. You end up tinkering with its guts, too.

Could you shed some light on how do you deal with these matters. Namely, high dimensional inputs for models, pre-processing/post-processing functions, serialization brittleness, and Keras/Tensorflow "duality".

We have to inherit that complexity to spare our users from having to mentally think of saving their experiments (we do that automatically to save models, metrics, params). The workflow is data --> collaborative notebooks with scheduling features and job --> (generate appbooks) --> automatically tracked models/params/metrics --> one click deployment --> 'REST' API or form to invoke model.

Aaaaaand again, congrats on the launch!

> I am wondering why humanity was able to learn from two world wars to never have one again

I believe this premise is yet to be proven true. We've had no new world war yet.
That's exactly the new standard the SEC just promulgated. Get a Series 7, and go nuts. You'll probably have to spend some time apprenticing at a financial firm, but that seems like a reasonable hurdle if your goal is to become a professional investor.

I still feel like the "classism" argument here is extremely weak. Not because investment opportunities aren't classist --- they are --- but changing 501(a) isn't going to fix that. They're structurally classist. Good bets don't want retail money, because retail investors are, as a cohort, a bunch of loons. It might never occur to you to sue over some random, mundane options allocation event, but I promise you, it would occur to someone in the cohort of retail investors.

I really believe that retail investors do not have a functioning mental model of how startup investing works. It's hard enough to get people to diversify at all. To invest in startups, you have to place 10 bets, hoping that 1-2 winners pay for all the losers. Ordinary investors freak the fuck out when one of their positions goes to zero, which is the expected outcome in private company investment.
These regulations are largely imposed on the companies seeking investments from the public. If they want to advertise the the general public then they need to complete certain disclosures and audits
Those are both made of iron.
If you want a Linux-like environment on Windows that can see and be seen from the Windows side, there is Cygwin.

> Our agreement with one of our originating bank partners, Cross River Bank, which has originated the substantial majority of loans facilitated through our platform to date, is non-exclusive, short-term in duration and subject to termination by Cross River Bank upon the occurrence of certain events, including our failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements. If that agreement is terminated, and we are unable to replace the commitments of Cross River Bank, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and future prospects would be materially and adversely affected.

Affirm is effectively a broker for loans issued by Cross River Bank
But that's completely different from having someone tell your your problem is minuscule compared to theirs. I mean, technically any possible angle might possibly work for someone somewhere sometime, but this does not feel to me like the right angle to use.

Not sure I agree with this write up. Microsoft can and is already plumbing various host bits into the guest virtual machine (e.g. GPU).

I use stopforumspam, and have a little script to deal with spam, that queries a read-only copy of the main DB. Anyway, users report it before I realize someone spammed the forum. Also, if your userbase is not too specialized using a white list of email domains can help. That makes some powerusers angry, so YMMV.

I think that what happened is that Internet got totally democratized, so there's a lot of noise, and valuable people is lost in that noise. Lost in the sense of we have a hard time finding them, and they have a hard time finding us.

I can't compete with the ad budget of all the social media trying to capture eyeballs.

And then you receive a lot of people who back in those times probably was thinking that forums are for nerds, and there you have it, your average idiot who demands to have an equal voice, but refuses to make any effort to contribute.

It may sound like an elitist POV but honestly, this is how it is for me. I praise HN so much just because people here at least makes some effort.
There are significant limits to that, such as juvenile courts.
It sounds harsh, but people die every day, many because of their own negligence. We can warn them ahead of time the best we can, but that's about it.

In a way, it's a mirror to the lowest common denominator of human nature. As should be expected if you think about it. A lot of our instincts don't scale well, e.g. eating too much sugar and fat when it's in abundance, because it used to be evolutionarily advantageous. So do we throw our hands up and say that's inevitable, or try to incentivize our better selves?

Israel gladly accepts all the help it can from the US, but is well aware of the large support that American anti-zionist and pro-palestinian causes receive. They also don't trust certain administrations to always have their back, even if stated publicly.

In summary, Israel always has a bunker mentality of "us vs. the world". The US, while an ally, isn't immune from suspicion and active and aggressive spying efforts.

I don't think they're dying off. In fact I think there's a resurgence in them beginning to swell due to some restrictive developments happening on big centralized social media.

The big friction point for forums is that to contribute or interact in one you had to sign up for a new account for every single one. This is why lots of these communities settled into reddit over time, to eliminate this friction point. Centralized platforms for multiple communities was a solution to this problem, but other problems are emerging from that that outweigh that friction.

Now with things like ActivityPub that friction point might be gone for good. All anyone has to do really is fork any one of a number of FOSS forum software, implement and ActivityPub API or other federation protocol, and possibly but not necessarily put in a pull request to merge the new functionality to the upstream code. Now you've potentially got a world of forums that you can interact with without signing up for a new account for every single one.

I do believe centralization is dying on the internet. The process has just begun so it is hard to see, but even at this early stage I think it is inevitable. And with this, forums have an important role to play with regard to online discourse.

This is definitely a super interesting company/approach - thanks for the link! I'm definitely curious as to whether they're actually using things like neural nets (or any other more-sophisticated technical techniques). The traditional problem is that those models aren't explainable, and potentially have hidden biases in them, so I'd be really curious what their approach is.

I'd probably start with basic chemistry and organic chemistry, and cell biology, and probably physiology would help. Once you feel like you have a solid understanding of those, biochemistry, immunology and pharma will be accessible.
