> The real difficulty is in deciding who "gets credit" for producing a given thing.

Exactly. The situation we currently have is that the people who are getting the most "credit" as you put it are by and large the same small group of people who make the rules for who gets the credit. "Bankers" is a convenient popular label for those people even though most of them don't actually work at banks.
You need to pay taxes on RSAs when granted so they mainly make sense when the share price is really low on paper.

Once the valuation is higher, RSUs can shield employees from paying taxes until a liquidity event.
+1 for April. She recommends against a lot of what's in this First-round article, and I think that's wise. This feels like an out-of-date business school primer, which is unusual for FirstRound as their stuff's historically pretty good.
Some people just want everyone else to see them arguing with themselves.
Yeah, I guess NoteCalc will be useful to many people, it's just that I'm noticing the sad lack of utilization of LuaTex (probably because people don't know it exists and exposes the power of TeX through Lua).

The targets of NoteCalc vs. the tool I'm proposing would be somewhat different, too, because LuaTex outputs primarily to PDF, and I don't know if it can produce HTML.
So basically these companies offer something better than what they already have, no?
"block ram" (like iCE40's sysMEM) is usually very fast, fancy and dual port, which is why there's so little of it, and is typically spread across the die for reduced latency purposes.

From a CPU-in-FPGA perspective, it could be used for e.g. L1 cache. Actual RAM can be slower and external to the FPGA chip.

The ULX3S (which can support the minimig Amiga implementation) and the DE10-Nano (miSTer's base board) would make overkill targets for this.

Unrelatedly it's not clear from that quote who did the declaring, which makes me believe it was "declared a disaster" by the author... just classic journalism tricks.
I have not for many years encountered (personally or professionally) _any_ defense of Facebook which did not amount to an acknowledgement of brutal amorality, and its consequences,

tempered by some usuall-shamedfaced appeal to a mix of [fatalistic, resigned, or blasé] self-interest, what-aboutism, and/or appeals to neatness [usually the result of acquisitions].

Not one. Not even from current employees.

The most vitriolic summaries typically from former employees, or those forced to do business with them.
For what's it's worth, people have been saying this since the late 80s, and probably earlier. The fundamentals of the argument haven't really changed much although as you note some individual lisp features & approaches have been bolted onto mainstream languages with varying success. For the things that lisps are really good at, these languages still aren't.
I think you misunderstand, or at least are taking the quotes a bit too far in either direction.

You can certainly have a passionate person who understands that at the end of the day user value is paramount even at the cost of some beauty. The author just wants to make sure you hire someone who can ship, not just passionately rewrite the codebase when a long weekend rolls around.
I'm missing something fundamental about the worldview here. The Intercept and Ms. Khoi have some well-founded concerns about the Vietnamese government's Facebook activities, and their conclusion is... we need to regulate and break up Facebook? That might well be a good idea for other reasons, but how could it possibly decrease the Vietnamese government's power over Vietnamese Facebook users?

I doubt it will bring much. If properly implemented, there is nothing that makes generator-like laziness slower than transducers, and since it is pretty central to clojure I doubt you will see much speed gain by using transducers.

In scheme, the srfi-158 based generators are slower than my own transducer SRFI (srfi-171) only in schemes where set! incurs a boxing penalty and where the eagerness of transducers means mutable state can be avoided.

Now, I know very little clojure, but I doubt they would leave such a relatively trivial optimization on the table. A step in a transducer is just a procedure call, which is the same for trivial generator-based laziness.

Hi @the_duke,

disclaimer I am one of the authors of an open-source solution (https://github.com/polyaxon/polyaxon) that specializes in the experimentation and automation phase of the data-science lifecycle.

Our tool provides exactly the kind of abstraction you mentioned:

* Training, data operations, and interactive workspaces (https://polyaxon.com/docs/experimentation/)

* A scalable history and comparison table (https://polyaxon.com/docs/management/runs-dashboard/comparis...)

* Currently pipelines and concurrency management is on the commercial version (https://polyaxon.com/docs/automation/) but several companies use Polyaxon with other tools like Kubeflow (https://medium.com/mercari-engineering/continuous-delivery-a...) or it can be used with MetaFlow for the pipelines part.

I would really like to hear your thoughts and feedback.
as other commenters have mentioned, the project currently defines "safe" as "well-lit" and does not take any other factors into account. the potential next steps listed do not involve asking users for their opinion on what areas are sketchy.

while it's important not to conflate "poor" with "unsafe", I don't think it's unreasonable or unfair for individuals to try to avoid walking around in areas with a higher rate of violent crime. as long as the service makes a good faith attempt at objectivity, I don't feel there is anything wrong with a service providing this sort of information. crime maps might be a good place to start looking for data.
Not gonna lie. Pijul sounds revolutionary. It basically combines best of both worlds. Distributed nature of Git with partial checkout of SVN.
> Could extra fabric be folded on the inside for the same effect without the dust collecting?

Yes, but you introduce other even more annoying problems, like your foot catching on the cuff when you put the pants on, and weird-looking vertical 'breaks' at the cuff fold.
> Is it bad I much prefer loops to reduce?

No. That's the reason that we have multiple different tools at our disposal. :)

My rule of thumb has always been to use the tool that I, myself, find more effective—not what others say would be the most effective in an ideal world where I know everything about every programming language in existence. That means that I've written a handful of shell-scripts in PHP, some CLI-tools in Ruby (that would probably run a lot faster in Go), and a couple of "API"s in Bash.
A similar idea I’ve often thought about would be a route planner than finds the path with the most shade on hot days. You’d have to take topography and building heights into account, along with the time of day. Weather is a factor too - overcast skies? Great! Would be an interesting problem to work on.
Of course, that is not what anyone is claiming.

With sales, it is very easy to tell which specific people are responsible for any specific deal. That's why sales compensation usually includes a share of revenue.

With product development, unless you have a very small team working on the product, it's nearly impossible to tell which specific people were responsible for a specific chunk of revenue. When someone buys a product, it's hard to determine which specific features were responsible for the deal.

> They teach interpersonal skills, social skills, work ethic, self care, professional networking, etc.

Judging by the amount of screaming children we've seen exit these institutions, they're either not teaching those things, or are doing an extremely poor job at it.

The coddling companies have to do for new grads entering the workforce is a testament to the lack of interpersonal skills, social skills, work ethic, self care, etc. that they gained while away at these institutions of higher learning.

Transducers are definitely idiomatic. They are more general over "similar things to transform in steps" (including sequences, messages and so on), so you can apply them to collections ("I have the whole data in advance") or channels ("I get the data piece by piece") and so on.

Another idiomatic way to improve performance are transients[0]. From the outside your function is still a function, but on the inside it's cheating by updating in place instead of using persistent data structures. See the frequencies function for a simple example[1].

Clojure and Rust are both very expressive languages and even though they both can be considered niche, they have _massive_ reach: Clojure taps into JVM and the JS ecosystems, Rust can also compile to WASM or be integrated with the JVM via JNI.

The big difference between the two, and why I think they complement each other nicely, is that Clojure is optimized for development, and does its best at runtime, but Rust is optimized for runtime, and tries its best at development. (A similar take in the article). In other words: they both achieve their secondary goal well, but resolve trade-offs by adhering to their primary in the vast majority of cases.

As someone who is now figuring out how to deal with a 20K charge because one of the surgeons consulted was out-of-network (and EVERYTHING including the anesthesiologist, primary surgeon, hospital care was all in-network)... that last part is the most insane for me...

Before my last surgery they offered me crutches and I asked if that was all covered by my insurance and specifically was it in-network with my provider. Imagine if it wasn't and some poor sap thinks... yes I should take crutches after a leg surgery and gets stacked with a massive upcharge
I started as a product manager (with engineering degrees and an MBA) for a minicomputer company at almost exactly the same time getting paid $42K as I recall. This was one of the Route 128 companies. But, based on some recruiting conversations I had over time, the Bay Area salaries weren't really a lot higher and housing was more expensive. That's one reason I never moved out West. I think I was paying similar in rent initially but it was a bigger 2BR townhouse.

Housing has gotten relatively more expensive but it hasn't been cheap in much of the Bay Area for a very long time and tech salaries didn't used to be anything special.
Metaflow is largely complementary to a job scheduler like Airflow. Technically you could export Metaflow workflows to Airflow, although the specific integration doesn't exist yet. For more details, see this blog article https://netflixtechblog.com/unbundling-data-science-workflow...

This has been the reality in China for a while now and the result has been... largely fine. eg: This Reuter's piece from 2018 where you could get a picture of anyone's face for $1USD and a copy of their phone records for 50c: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-dataprivacy/data-du...

Like, if you ask a representative sample of people living in China what they feel the top 10 pros and cons of living in China were, that all of their personal information is for sale for a few bucks would not make it onto many people's lists on either side, it doesn't really affect your day to day life.

There are a lot of theoretical privacy attacks that sound scarily creepy but privacy advocates tend to play up the hypothetical and not look at how empirically impactful such things end up being.
15k for an airlift honestly sounds cheap all things considered, but the surprise out of network doctor is such bullshit it should have been fixed ages ago. It's one thing when you had to go to the ER, but even when your visit was planned they can spring you with that.

> There’s basically no example of a monopoly forming outside of government regulation.

The monopoly on force which defines the state must first form before there can be any government regulation, and thus must inherently form outside of government regulation.

Once that forms, of course, there is virtually no example of anything in human society forming outside of government regulation.

But taking the absence of evidence of how things behave “outside of government regulation” for evidence of ones preferred view of the difference between life under government regulation and without it is rather unwarranted.
Wow, the comments are eye opening.

China has "exported" communism to the rest of the world and has become capitalistic itself.
Pre-cloud I remember having 10 full time infrastructure guys to support 100 devs by building servers, installing software, setting up backups, buying licenses, setting up the network, creating credentials, patching software, etc...

Most of the projects I work on now have 1-2 IT people supporting 100 devs.

What is Metaflow's explicit support for Transfer Learning tasks? In other words, how do I know what models to use or not use? I am surmising from the techblog post that there is a stable set of content-intrinsic features, and that can be separated from perhaps more dynamic features-sets that characterize audiences, presentation treatment, and viewing (as conditioned on all the other stuff). But it sounds like there is a stable set of features for prediction tasks, as well, which is to say that for a task like predicting an audience for movie X in region Y, you'll need some set of features, and that we have some set of trained models (and recommend analytic components) available that match some or all of those features for this task. Is that a "thing", or is the workflow support simpler than that, and should that be a "thing"?
Ask HN: Have you had trouble with using alternative email providers?
A year ago I finally said most of my goodbyes to gmail and moved over to a more private email provider (Hushmail).

Yesterday, I went to go signup for Repl.it and for the first time I was told to go grovel via email to prove that my email is valid and that I'm actually a human. Sure, I stop what I'm doing and send an email. I get a reply back saying (summed up with the anger of watching the internet burn down around you) "go to our support forum and grovel publicly but if you're actually trying to reach someone send another email and we might take it seriously".

...is this really what awaits those of us who choose not to be with the largest email providers (Gmail/Hotmail/Yahoo) or refuse to use SSO (Google/Github/FB Login)?
Of course, external RAM is an option. However, using external SDRAM increases the complexity of the hardware significantly, which takes away a bit of the elegance and simplicity of Wirth's original RISC5 FPGA system. Wirth's system used a Xilinx Spartan 3 board with 1 MB of 32 bit wide fast asynchronous SRAM (https://multicores.org/blog/small-is-beautiful.html).

Unfortunately, FPGA boards with 32 bit wide SRAM are really hard to find nowadays, especially those supported by SymbiFlow...

Me too. I'm currently working on an Agile engineering team, due to it being a startup, so they like to group people together. (We got a data engineer, an infrastructure engineer, a consultant of all things, a firmware engineer, a hardware engineer, and a jack of all trades.)

This at first bothered me a lot, due to Agile micromanagement, but after a few months the company realized my work load is nothing like engineering, and because I have to become the domain expert on a topic to solve the challenges at hand, I end up knowing best what the next steps should be. After realizing this the company has since put me in the team lead meetings (which is excessive imo) and has personally requested that I make my own epics, issues/pbis, and do my own refinement. The only downside remaining is the company wants presentations every two weeks, but now I'm in control to slowly grow my pbis into whatever time span I want (within reason), allowing me to present as often as I want. Responsibility comes with rapport.
The most insightful comment is buried at the bottom of the list. Two kinds of people in this world, those who think truth lies where the crowd is and those who think it's where the crowd isn't.

I think the argument you are responding to is not the one the previous user presented. This issue isn't that people are trying to maximize profit leading to issues. The problem is that there is undue government interference in the market leading to all of the negatives that come from people selfishly trying to maximize profit in a cynical way with none of the benefits of people trying to maximize profits by providing a product that people will prefer over the competition.
I think its more that if gravity is just acting weird than God for some reason decided that gravity should act exactly like lots of invisible matter in clumps. For some galaxies we've worked out where dark matter would have to be, right down to how it's rotating and where its lopsided. Gravity would have to be both weird and dedicated to seeming like dark matter for that to hammer out.

I don't know how well the bamboo frame performs, but I'm not sure your critiques really demonstrate that it's "not a serious bicycle".

> $400 for just some tubes, glue, and dropouts, plus another $800-$2500 for the other parts needed to turn the frame into an actual bicycle, plus however much you value several days of labor

$400 is extremely cheap for a bike frame, not to mention a custom one. And the "labor" is a selling point -- this a niche product is for customers who _want_ to build their own frame. The DIY assembly isn't a cost-saving measure like with furniture.

The $800-$2500 is just a catch-all range for the rest of the components. It's doesn't have anything to do with their specific frame.

> Care for your bike like a musical instrument?! They can't be serious. That instrument had better be a steel triangle.

I'm not sure what your issue is with their statement. Regular maintenance is important, and will extend the life of the components. That's true for all bikes. People that spend time & money on a quality bike are willing to maintain them.

> Is that 10 miles each? That's not very reassuring.

I agree with you that their statement doesn't give any indication of the durability of the frame. They should have quoted some kind of actual statistics, either real world or from factory testing.

I actually understand Facebook's point here, because the fact is they are just too good as what they do. The deal is, give up all your users' info, and we'll give you some very similar people we know are very likely to also become users from our (billions? trillions?) of on- and offline observations we have about them. For me, it's a deal with the devil, but I also sympathize with those who take it if it means the difference between staying afloat and going out of business.
