That is a really good question!

As devs we know it's a good thing, but try explaining to the average manager why we're going to spend dev time removing features instead of adding new ones. It'll be a hard conversation ;)
Hopefully F# gets big enough that people will write those libraries - I think people deserve a better Python.

Yeah I would be fine using the app, but it still disables possibility to quickly search site:reddit.com some topic I want to research and go through mostly comments. Then back to search, go on and so on. This is how I browse Reddit a lot of the time anyway.

Maybe I am using wrong app for that though. I am using Relay right now. And it doesn't allow me yo select comments properly coming from Google search. I think I tried Reddit's official app and it didn't work very well too + the context switch of going from chrome to an app.

But yeah I get that they do it intentionally...
That is sorta my entire point.

The fact that this has over-flowed into the public sphere is a failure.

If they handled the situation correctly it should have been sorted internally. Whether the person in question spilled the beans at all is proof of that.

Managing people is a skill, and being good at computer science does not make you a good manager. They should know that complaining to social media is an option that someone might take and they should consider that when dealing with these issues.

The fact that we are here discussing anything at all proves the above, It isnt 1995, if someone feels slighted for whatever reason, expect it show up on Twitter, true or not. You don't want to be chasing the narrative with a potentially one sided google doc. No one is giving the mega corp the benefit of the doubt in 2020 which means it is bad PR either way.
That can’t be accidental, can it ?

Even imagining a bug in the registration code, you would at least go to a confirmation page before creation is commited.
Can anyone shed light into what makes this difficult? I'd love a matte black mac, but I can't imagine this research is more than A/B testing.
Yes? The U.S. did worse than them too.
I quilt and have made one t-shirt quilt. It's the last I will ever make. Not hard, but you need the proper tools. And not just a sewing machine. You need stabilizer for the t-shirts since they stretch.

If you want one made, there are companies and quilters everywhere that make them.

As for cost, the idea that they are expensive depends on how you view the work. I love quilting but understand that what I sell them for keeps me in fabric. I'm not earning a living from it.
The distributed database systems of the mid 80s such as the Teradata DBC 1012[1]
are better prior art for Map/Reduce.

Yes. That would be a great middle ground.

As a side note:I am pro-scraping as long as common sense has a say in it and it's not abused. I do scrape one in a blue moon when I want to research a topic in depth.It's great for gathering a lot of information to help learn about a topic fast(er).
If it's just the inside pocket that wears, and not the pant leg itself, that's pretty easy to fix with scrap of fabric, plus needle and thread. I've done that myself with plenty of pants, even sewn a completely new replacement pocket for one pair.

For the shirts, you could sew patches on the elbows, but the would probably be at-home/casual shirts at that point.

The skill of mending clothes is one I think many people don't think about, out maybe they just don't think it's something they want to do. It's not rocket science at all, and there are tons of guides and videos or there to show the various stitches and techniques.

I mend all of my clothes when they start to wear, fix and replace buttons, even slight alterations to fit. When a piece of clothing finally becomes overall too threadbare, I harvest buttons and sometimes zippers, as well as scraps of remaining good quality fabric, all for future repairs.

My current pants are all from the Finnish store Varusteleka. Their ordinary jeans are good, their tactical jeans are amazing, and their worker pants are a breath of fresh old-fashioned air, with high waists, pleats and buttons for proper suspenders.

The materials chosen are solid, as is the workmanship, although you wouldn't call it superlative. Like the style, it's practical, not flashy.

I like their wool shirts too.
There is escape, and there is hope. We can increase our resilience to life's trials. You're right that it is a cruel world. But there is still joy to be had. Lots of it.
Hopefully your optometrist has warned you that it just gets worse and there's nothing they can do.
Even beyond that, it seems like he has forgotten that customers aren't the only people that can be exploited. A founder has to be passionate about solving a problem, not about the people under her solving it.

If Jeff Bezos were in front of a YC interview there is no chance they ask him whether his stock workers will get healthcare or if they'll get pushed so hard that they have to piss in bottles to keep their jobs.
I can agree with this. This is great if you have a soft interest in something.

However, I like trading (stocks and stuff) and the subs focusing on that are very... questionable at times. A ton of people that mistake pure luck for skill perhaps... every other day.

Its no use telling some of them that, yea you just made $1000 this week trading but if you don't test your strategies legitimately you could and will just as easily lose that $1000.

People really underestimate the randomness.
That doesn't really make a good headline

I follow one of these communities, and the hard part is that the old Reddit is broken in it’s own way, and we’re guaranteed it will never be fixed. It’s basically a lose lose situation all around.
Why do people use weird acronyms that no one uses.
I previously posted this: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2975-4

Maybe because I included (in mice) in the title, it didn't get upvoted as much as this post.
OP here. Yeah I don’t necessarily think that’s a counter though. Falun Gong propaganda has no place in CCP criticism as they are a cult with incoherent policies. Those who are criticizing the CCP which IMO it rightly deserves should be careful of the reach they have as bundling their sources and arguments is not the right path. They both deserve criticism.

Jetson Xavier crushes the M1 using only 9-billion transistors. I realize that the M1 has other stuff on it (4-big cores, Neural Engine), but... yeah... the M1 ain't a GPU architecture. It has one, but its not a "serious" SIMD-platform.

M1 has impressive big-core / CPU characteristics though. But Hashcat just ain't where its promising.

Skeuomorphism Is Making a Comeback
A lot of process rules are unrealistic, but that doesn't mean this one is, and that can't be used to conclude that all internal processes are unrealistic and wouldn't be followed. It's an quite unrealistic statement to make. Most places rely on internal processes to work, and it would be extremely rare for any case of exception.
I gave out the $100k prize you mention (well, I handed the discoverers a non-negotiable giant check for it), but I didn't know about these possibilities. That will be great if they materialize as useful applications!
Amazing! I’d be interested- the problem I have in the FP space is not getting the F# or Haskell experience so you have to “keep up in your spare time” and with other commitments I have to choose what to keep up with and the rarity of FP jobs means it makes more sense to say learn Redux, Sagas, that kind of stuff etc. So I think it’s good if companies like yours would take pure enthusiasm with proven knowledge of other programming languages and desire to learn F#. But I guess it depends as you may have a queue of people wanting a FP job so you can be choosy!
You said it said something about the brand. Dealers aren't the brand.
I'm responding narrowly to the subthread here, which is about firing someone who gives an ultimatum in the abstract. I don't know enough about the specifics of Timnit/Google's situation to pass judgment. (I'm also an employee there, so doing so would be unwise and a potential violation of confidentiality rules if I did know anything.) To me I'm filing it under "Everybody sees through their emotions, and different people will have different perceptions of what actually happened and what people actually intended."
I've noticed my friends who are less comfortable with English don't bother with Reddit but they were all on Facebook at some point.
Its actually incredible how bad it is on mobile.

Its like, unusable... I'm amazed that the video player still only seems to work half the time.
Because of the grandaddy comment of this comment chain.
This is a reason to challenge the value of jobs, not a reason to materially damage our irreplaceable environment. Social constructions must yield to material reality.
That's still a better outcome though? The result is that wealth is distributed to more people

Awesome work!

Being able to setup poses and step through them (maybe even with Inverse Kinematics animating between poses) would be great, especially for things like martial arts technique learning or dance instruction.

Presumably because enough people clicked "vouch" on the comment because chrisseaton pointed it out. The majority of that user's posts are dead, with the oddball here or there that has apparently been vouched for.
You asserted:

"a good manager would have handled this and it would never have reached this point, public or otherwise. This whole episode is failure of management top to bottom."

My point is that I do not know whether this situation could have been handled better. We don't know enough to judge whether this could have been sorted out neatly. You seem to think that a clean resolution was possible, and you might be right, or you might be wrong.
I love how discourse on Hacker News these days basically requires you to be fake-nice and being frank or the least bit blunt is immediately taken to be "trolling" or "unwanted".
I guess as it turns out the early catalogers weren't wrong in censoring this.

If this ever were to get out the youth will wield it as a weapon to destroy culture!
Job posting requirements are generally a poor way to assess the requirements for a job. They're either written by someone non-technical & may be inaccurate, `OR` specify the unicorn candidate. The latter serves to improve the quality of applicants by cutting a good amount of time-wasters, but it also cuts an unfortunate number of valuable self-doubters. Which is why the 'just apply' advice turns up frequently; the people who care enough to ask on forums are probably conscientious and interested enough to be in that latter group, and some will be good value hires - even if they tick only 20% of the boxes at the time of interview.

In my limited experience, your attention is better spent sleuthing about on LinkedIn, on the company website, and especially a dev blog if one exists. Getting to know a company is far more instructive and helps with every stage of an application.
Using dealerships to build a charging network is a nice idea. The knock on benefit of getting car owners to your dealership more frequently and hopefully selling more cars.

> Ideally their kid should still have access to public school education, with all the tools needed to go on to become successful themselves.

> just that even taking what you've said about fundamental human preferences at face value it is not inevitable that it stay this way

You're not wrong, but funding education is _expensive_, and education is only part of the puzzle, access is another large part of it, and so are the social norms you develop. My family and I grew up in "poverty-lite", and while I did manage to get into a great college, the adjustment was quite difficult. In high school I would show up to regional science fairs, and would often come in 2nd or 3rd place, and would lose to kids who used their high school's teacher's Masters thesis as a science project (for reference, in my school nobody even had a Masters degree.) Socially, I grew up very different from them. Where I grew up, you kept your head down and got in line. Disputes were aired out publicly, and often descended to fistfights if you were under 21. Textbooks were expensive, and my school often couldn't afford enough for everyone. I was constantly begging the librarian to borrow math books, but I never could because we didn't even have enough copies for the students in the actual class, let alone me, an interested kid.

For my college peers money was never an issue. I used my good grades to become a TA as soon as I could, and I worked as many hours as I could so I could pay rent and make expenses while my friends seemed to have endless amounts of time to go to social hangouts and parties, which certainly blocked the connections I could make.

Over the years I've made a handful of friends in tech who grew up in a similar income bracket as mine, and they remain comforting to me because even now, I have a hard time relating to the average Silicon Valley tech worker whose life started in upper-middle class gated suburbs.
Dealers accepting the buyout are them bailing on the brand due to perceived lower long term value of said brand (versus the investment being asked of them). My apologies I wasn’t more clear upfront.

The thesis isn’t just less service required electric vehicles, but Cadillac brand loyalty dying off with older customers (Cadillac has the oldest customer base in the auto industry). Similar situation with Harley Davidson [1].

I think the difference here is that the research may have shown that Google was unintentionally breaking the law, and after Google realized this, they used an existing review process in a way they don't normally use it to block publication.

The possibly shady part is that they could be suppressing evidence that they broke the law, but, like your said, they can decide how to run their own business. I'm not even sure if the researcher would be a whistleblower if they didn't intend to report something illegal.

To makes matters worse, in this case at least, the law or laws they may be breaking were established to protect a class of people the researcher is a member of.
This probably isn't true everywhere and probably won't be for a while yet.

I think you replied to the wrong comment. You start off by disagreeing with something but it does not seem to be anything I wrote in this thread.
And that’s why you shouldn’t chase after code coverage percentages.

While there are uncovered lines, you have a TODO list that has been generated by the machine, telling you what needs more attention. If you go to that section intending to test it well, you’ll get a lot of lines of test code for a modest increase in coverage. If you’re just trying to boost coverage, you’ll check off the todo without accomplishing much.

The only place these two metrics line up at all is when you can keep the number of conditions in each method close to one, and the functions pure. Otherwise you have a bunch of little functions that accumulate state and you’ve just moved the combinatorics where it’s even harder to reason about.

I think the most you can say with any certainty is that coverage percentage should not go down when adding code. But staying flat doesn’t prevent things from getting worse.
There was a study that found that blue collar and white collar parents have distinct parenting styles. Blue collar parents are more authoritarian. They teach their children to obey authority, which as it happens is what is generally required to succeed in a blue collar job. White collar parents teach their children to think for themselves and be assertive, behaviors that are--perhaps not coincidentally--rewarded in white collar jobs.
All these discussions in the comments about coverage percentages would be so much more insightful if everyone mentioned the kind of code they work on. Client-side JS? Real-time video processing firmware? A language support library? Automotive middleware? Java for an ATM? An ML library wrapper? Personal website backend in Rust? Android game engine? Cosmic particle simulation?

I don't even care about the implied "what could go wrong" but about the size of the input spaces and the complexity of the algorithms behind them. I certainly don't subscribe to the idea that there is a one-size-fits-all testing strategy for all the above, and I see little gain in arguing for or against a certain approach with someone who has entirely different constraints and code architectures to work with.

Require 100% code coverage on an async task library? Sure, go for it. 100% coverage on a (deep-learning-free) algorithm identifying constellations in pictures of the night sky? Do you really want to have to violate every single assumption one by one in your unit tests? How do you even get that input data (and who will create more nonsense data when you improve the algorithm)?

Or in other words: For any reply in this thread you can probably come up with a scenario where it makes sense to operate as described in it. There is some nice perspective but overall I find it a bit unactionable...

Basing the definition on whether it's compiled or not doesn't help much.

Python is actually compiled to bytecode, just like Java. Is it not a scripting language?

Or is the distinction that the Python bytecode is interpreted whereas Java is JIT compiled to machine code? Well, Java didn't get the JIT compiler until version 1.3 - so was Java 1.2 a scripting language?

Maybe she isn't that important for the company? Why bother working with someone making demands if they aren't worth your time. Google might have actually thought she was detrimental to the company and wanted an excuse to fire her and she gave it.
I wish more people did this.
With her credentials, no less than "a famous scientist that's authored landmark papers in AI research", she could easily start her own AI company, or at least a top-tier consultancy, to advance the AI research frontier at the unprecedented pace. She could even hire the top notch researchers from the SJW community and show Jeff what the real science looks like. I'm sure VCs will line up to fund her novel ideas.

I've been in various conversations with fellow vegans where we discussed this; to my recollection about 1/3 said they would eat it and about 2/3 said they wouldn't, and about 3/3 said it would make the world dramatically better and the people who invented it were superheroes.
