Wow, that seems to be correct. I wonder why they would do that. In my childhood I went to an RSS school and we used to hoist the national flag all the time. Strange.
Volume is China. The same for solar.
I don’t have an opinion on that particular part one way or the other. I bet his observations have nothing to do with the controversy in actual reality.

Like I made pretty clear, this article is to save Farley’s political career by denigrating this other founder who isn’t getting a different enough outcome from every other pandemic response organization in every other city. Nobody should care about Philly drama whether it was vaccines or anything else. All of those midatlantic carcasses of a prior civilization are not worth our thoughts for something this petty. They pretty much have to go after character, even the news organization “investigated” and all they found was that the underlying company was... a company. Wow. Let’s reiterate that its a for profit company, the default, just to ruffle the feathers of impressionable people and Europeans.
Indeed, though in some instances that’s as it should be. There are objectively rational reasons why women should have optional access to male-free spaces. There no objectively rational reasons for the converse.

(That said, I’m all for making all such restricted spaces as rare as possible. Any structural division, no matter how well intended, has a cost to society.)
Yes, how to apply and secure governmental contracts and grants is something many educational curriculum miss out upon in life.
Germany also has its own controversy about corona software. The government wants to standardize on SORMAS, but many local governments don't want to switch.

I expected a dump, but to be honest, SORMAS looks pretty good. It's already in use by Nigeria and Ghana, and it's on Github. It's Java EE with Postgres on Ubuntu, so safe and sane tech choices. They even have a play version: https://sormas.helmholtz-hzi.de/sormas-ui/login that also looks ok. I'm thoroughly impressed.
> staff the team so you can reply within 48 hours. Currently, the average seems to be about 10 days.

> None of these things take materially more resources from google.

Increasing the size of the support team to 5x what it is now doesn't require "more resources"? Sure, you can probably make the argument that Google can afford it, but that's because they're one of the most wealthy companies on the planet, but because it doesn't take more resources.
Any insiders know the technology behind VAMS? I wonder if it is built on their ‘exalink’ platform?

I’m no longer with Deloitte, but I saw that they recently sold off their life sciences department to their only competitor- Model N [1]. The Exalink platform was born out of work being done for the life sciences department. I thought it was an interesting development that Deloitte sold them off since when I was still there it was being peddled as this great in-house cloud-agnostic system that could do whatever you wanted it to do (spoiler: it couldn’t). Anyways, maybe it is completely unrelated?

> the behavior you witnessed is simply not possible to induce with the dosing range used by licensed ketamine treatment clinics

There's a growing trend of clinics prescribing take-home lozenges. Some of them are giving patients 30 or more lozenges at a time, with the expectation that they'll use them once or twice a week.

Of course, some patients take multiple doses at once. Browsing subreddits on the topic shows plenty of stories of people escalating their doses or asking for strategies to convince their doctors to prescribe more.

Unfortunately, I think it's going to get worse before it gets better. Too many unscrupulous doctors are realizing the profit potential for dispensing Ketamine prescriptions in exchange for $300, 20-minute telehealth visits.
> “The health-care software industry is enormous, and it exists largely because it’s privatized, it’s not standardized,” says Stone. “There are a lot of free-market inefficiencies. And the country doesn’t have a public health infrastructure, so there isn’t any real drive to fix it.”

> “You think about the industries that have been transformed by technology—someone said, How do we get a pizza to your house faster? That’s a competitive advantage,” he says. “That has not happened in American health care.”

The pizza industry is not a exactly standardized industry with public infrastructure either... the failure of VAMS (and healthcare.gov before it, and the unemployment systems, etc) shows that single government solution is not a fix for broken procurement and project management.
I agree that the language at times is a bit intense and I find that unfortunate as it takes away from the actual message.

I would encourage you to read a bit further and see past that to the actual protocol!
Depends on how the shaman has prepared it. First time for me was 8 hours with a couple really intense hours in the middle.
Second time was 3 hours but it was peaky.

> Taxation requires benefit systems for those that are not working (unemployment, disability, maternity etc).

Not a negative income tax, for exactly the same reason that a UBI doesn't, because they're the same thing.

> Taxation is chunky (per year) and delayed (processing delays).

Neither of these is inherently different. You could have a per-year UBI with processing delays. You could have an instantaneous tax reconciliation system with electronic transfers.

> Taxation has more scope for fraud so requires much more overhead for prevention.

You say that as if the existence of a UBI would cause there to not be taxation.

Having a negative income tax is entirely orthogonal to tax complexity. The explanation is more complicated, because it's just a harder to reason about way of describing the same system.
You get those 73 engineers in a room, then what? What do they write? You get 15 engineers, 3 DBAs, 5 sys admins + their managers. While that's spinning up, you get a bunch of business analyists to write the requirements. A first version gets written, it doesn't do what people want and the data it works from is really crappy, so you have to write a bunch of custom edge logic to deal with the crappy data. Repeat several times, including massive changes in scope.

Like is there bloat on these projects? 100%, and a lot of it, but saying "just get 73 solid engineers in a room" doesn't really get you very far when the requirements are really really unknown.
It sounds nice for optimization in theory but in practice production compilers already have well oiled optimization pipelines that have mostly "flat" performance characteristics (i.e. all the low hanging fruit is gone), and the algorithms are all very well understood because most of the fundamentals really haven't changed in ~20 years or more. The 80/20 rule mostly still applies.

TBF this isn't always true. Unison[1] characterizes register allocation as geometric packing, a solution which is very robust on irregular architectures like Hexagon. GPUs have problems like extremely large register files that the literature doesn't treat very well which some solvers might help with, etc. And fully automated solvers are useful as complementary tools for any compiler, like Souper or Alive2. They're certainly good for specialized tools, especially validators.

Personally, I think to prototype and construct a general program analysis quickly, you're better off with a tool like a Datalog variant. Souffle is pretty good. If you want to make generalized optimizers cheaper and more quickly, especially ones that can explore emergent optimizations that heuristics may not discover, solutions like equality saturation might be a better starting point[2] (it's kind of like a generalized version of a global cost-based SQL optimizer -- so the engine implicitly combines small rules together into more powerful rules.) Specialized solvers for particular logics or domains are still going to be valuable beyond that, of course. If you're writing a production compiler, your job is still cut out for you no matter what.

If someone smart out there could "just" write an SMT solver and a robust Datalog that are efficient and easy to integrate as Lua ("drop in C files and go"), I'd fund that work.

I don't think anywhere in their terms did it say users are not allowed to trade outside the US. But that didn't stop RH from freezing $800 in my account for a year after making 103% in a day on $VXX and other ETNs during a trip to Mexico in 2017. I eventually got my money back.

Surprised nobody told you to just get the SDK from Steinberg. It's C++ and super easy to integrate with (I was making a DAW a while back). You can send it midi notes in a strict, basically. SDK is free.
EV cars will get there and so too the infrastructure but it isn't there yet.

Americans like big vehicles. This is solely lacking in the electric department. Americans also like convenience - no matter how many ways you try to slice and dice the argument it's less convenient right now.

When EVs get bigger (more utility) and have longer charge and shorter charging time, they will take off. It just isn't there yet.

I spent all night wandering around the hotel with a couple of friends who I would later end up in a relationship with, babbling about some deep deep holes in my brain. Several times I said that I felt wonderful and amazing, and that I was not allowed to go looking for this stuff again for at least a year, as I could see how it could get addictive.

This was something like fifteen years ago and I still haven’t had any urge to hunt down more. If I need it badly enough I figure it will show up in my life again.

(Also it was at a furry con, which I guess is kind of a weird and magical space for most people; it was far from my first one, and there’s a strong component of work to them for me as I’m an artist who spends most of them hanging out behind a table drawing stuff!)

I have a PHEV (Ford C-Max Energi), and with low miles the oil change interval is two years, rather than my gas only vehicles with a one year interval. I may be a terrible person, but I don't really keep track of the other intervals; if something needs doing, it'll likely come up when in for the oil change or make a terrible noise.

Also, the just off lease C-max was very inexpensive, and gets huge gas mileage, so even if it explodes, whatever. It got me a carpool sticker for a year too.

True, but any consolidation helps the 'last x' problem, generally. Instead of worrying if every house can charge at once, you only have to worry about the shopping centers. It doesn't help at the power station level though of course.
The problem is that only apps with general public appeal and popularity can get fixed when fucked by google. See how many no-name apps that get accidentally fucked over, and nobody bats an eye, because nobody hears about it!

I think deplatforming should be treated the same as discrimination - there should be some transparent, third-party that you can appeal to, which has legal binding power (ala, a court) to reinstate, and if also found to be agrievious, fine the company owning the platform.

Ask HN: How do I recreate an orange?
I purchased an orange at Walmart and it tasted orders of magnitude better than any other orange I have ever eaten before. The other navel oranges I purchased in the same batch were ordinary, so I believe it was some factor about this orange in particular that caused a different taste. I saved a bit of flesh that was attached inside near the stem entry. What is my best method for recreating this orange: specifically what is the most affordable/accessible way to sequence fruit DNA, can I grow an orange without a seed, and will it ever taste as heavenly if I am unable to replicate environmental conditions?
Very cool. It's interesting that they are planning to start with Vulkan support, followed by OpenGL/DX/etc.

I guess it makes sense; the RISC-V crowd might possibly skew towards early adoption over backwards-compatibility.

It would be really cool to see some implementations from places like SiFive/GigaDevice/etc. Imagine how easy driver support could be if everyone used and contributed to the same open IPs...
I work in defense and I always say the govt pays $100 for $1 of actual work. It makes me pretty angry at times as a taxpayer.

Hubble was funded in the 1970s with a proposed launch in 1983, but the project was beset by technical delays, budget problems, and the 1986 Challenger disaster. It was finally launched by Space Shuttle Discovery in 1990, but its main mirror had been ground incorrectly, resulting in spherical aberration that compromised the telescope's capabilities. The optics were corrected to their intended quality by a servicing mission in 1993.

Meh.
Care to elaborate on some of your points/concerns here? I’m not an expert, but it sounds like short interest is still so high that if a coordinated group can hold the line they’ll squeeze the shorts. But you and other posters make it sound like that isn’t possible. Can you or anyone else explain why not?
Have you seen the vaccination setups? It's just car queues! I'm sure nothing there "flows" without a whole lot of manual data entry.

So now what, you are reporting this adverse event to VAMS who reports it to VAERS? There is no flow, it's all just duplicate effort from architecture astronauts.
I would have agreed with you two years ago. I've taken MDMA socially countless times and would have thought it entirely pointless to take alone, but my experiences taking it therapeutically - first with a sitter and then totally alone - have changed my view on this entirely.

I actually have very little interest in taking MDMA socially anymore. How I see it is that as unconscious material comes to the surface, you need to be present with it or it doesn't really get processed. If you're distracted by your awesome friends there is just less space and energy for that, and what happens is you end up bringing all this shit to the surface, NOT engaging with it, and then coming down and it's still right up at the surface. This is in my experience why the hangovers suck so much. After a therapeutic session I feel drained but never hung over and depressed like I have after some social experiences.

Everyone is different of course but I say don't knock it til you try it!
What you are saying is simply not ok. If your take away of your experience led you to believe BLM is responsible for significant violence, that is a manifestation of problems with you and your beliefs, not an accurate fact-based conclusion drawn from a legitimate interpretation of the BLM movement or any experience of BLM protests. You saying that I sound unreasonable by not letting your shit slide doesn’t change anything. You can say that. You can cling to racism-based biased refusal to accept the facts or accept your stated understanding of your experience is wrong and unduly biased, but it does not make what you’re saying any more legitimate or worthy of respect. What you are saying is just unacceptably wrong - it really is, really - in a way where you cannot just say, “well I believe different” and have that be treated like it’s valid or on equal footing.

You are starting off from a position so irredeemably far from acceptable fact-based reality, that for you to say my response sounds unreasonable is completely unsurprising and carries no weight.

It might sting to have your attachment to what you think is an acceptable interpretation of your experience called out for the unreasonable anti-BLM bias that it is. Oh well, the anti-BLM fantasy stuff is not OK, not going to slide.
I’ve read that the vast majority of GME stock is held by institutions, mainly a dozen or so Wall Street banks. Redditors apparently had enough pull to move the needle and drive a short squeeze, but it seems like these banks will be the main beneficiaries of the rising price. And as they offload more and more shares to Redditors at an inflated price, I’m guessing ultimately the Redditors will be left holding the bag when the price eventually comes back down to earth?

It seems like a few short-selling banks will take a beating, more banks will make a killing, and a lot of Redditors are going to die on the cross of “diamond hands.”

I don’t really know anything about the stock market though. This is interesting enough to watch from the sidelines.
It's a challenge, but it's hardly a show-stopper.

Studies can use active placebo to make patients feel something dramatic. Some times they use drugs like Xanax which induce noticeable sedated states, for example.

Double-blind, placebo controlled studies are the gold standard, but not the only option. It's common to compare against another known-good treatment option. For example, you might structure the study such that one group receives 16 weeks of standard therapy, while the second group receives 16 weeks of the same therapy, but with the addition of of psychedelic sessions on weeks 8 and 12. If the psychedelics have a positive impact, you would expect greater divergence between the two groups after the psychedelic sessions.

Sadly, current studies don't actually point to a significant benefit from psychedelics when compared to standard therapy sessions. In the last study I viewed the used therapy with a few psychedelic sessions, it appeared that the vast majority of improvement came strictly from the therapy, before the psychedelics were even introduced. In fact, from the graph of patient improvement I couldn't tell if the psychedelics had any effect at all. The study basically showed that psychedelics didn't make therapy worse than normal, but that's about it.
I have no experience in this field, but do you think it's more likely they are making crazy profits or that they are just really incompetent? probably a little bit (or a lot) of both I'd imagine.
Rant - it's not Ecstasy, it's MDMA. Ecstasy is a street drug. I wish these reporters would get their facts straight. Also, I did a guided therapeutic session two years ago and it was sublime. Top three experiences of my life. Transformative. This stuff needs to be legalized at least for prescription use, minimum.
No worries, I understand. Many sikhs here support Trump. Mostly who are here since ages, & are businessman, does not pay minimum wage, employ & exploit asylum seekers. And I am also sikh, although does not wear any sikh symbols like Hair Turban.

No where I said we need congress government. Modi dictator need to go away. India was progressing way way more in Manmohans rule (yes, there were million bad issues were too, no denial). But Modi's rule is dictatorship.

You can't even compare Biden Support to modi Supporters. Biden won fair & square. The greatest president has world's most secure elections under his rule, & fraud happened? No, he lost it. Simple. I am Democrat pro, want Sanders, but will work with Biden, because the other option was Twice Impeached Orange. Never. A lesser evil is better than bigger one.

RSS has a MBA Think Tank in Nagpur, thinking over every next move to keep the power clutched in their bloody hands forever. Its a rouse that winning every election will seem sus, so lets lose some smaller ones.

Serving in military does not give one a certificate of something. Its a profession. Nobody is forced. Its for money, just like any other profession. Teachers, Cashiers, Servers, Firefighters are equally important. Nothing morally special about being you or family in military. Millions of racist bigots work in every country's military, thinking themselves as Patriots, but infact are just racist.

You’re not competing with anyone, there’s no need to look good. Function, function, function.
A lot of “government contracting” is having people whose job it is to find the people that can authorize a sale and then hand-hold them through all the paperwork needed for them to actually make the sale.
It mentions support for INT8 for ML/AI. FP16 and BF16 support isn't explicitly mentioned, but it does support 8/16/32-bit fixed/float scalars and vectors, so it could be added later.
I am benignly very curious about what you would like to share but can't. Not in the "why not?!" combative sense, but rather because that aspect sounds like an interesting story in and of itself. Well, the parts that can be shared anyway :)

The tidbits you've dropped do produce a lot of curiosity about the rest of the story too.
Does anyone know if this was yet another React website disaster? This is exactly the kind of website that should be built with reliable technologies. You don't need fancy animations or whatever junk the SPA style sites have. Just old style server side frameworks, minimal Javascript, standards supported HTML and CSS. The article mentioned Internet Explorer as an issue? Cross browser support is no issue if you stick to the old standard HTML and CSS and minimize use of Javascript. Mobile support? That's just loading the right CSS library. The goal here isn't "engagement" and all the other shit SPA style sites optimize for with their heavy JS tracking and advertisement code that makes the laptop fan run. The goal here is a simple reliable CRUD website for scheduling appointments, the previous generation of web development tech stack is perfect for this.
I hope that happens. Corporations cannot, and should not be able to TOS their liabilities away.
