A friend of mine blew out his knee in a skiing accident. After his operation, he needed rehab, and went to the best he could find. It was where pro football players went for rehab. He said he couldn't believe how hard they worked out, so he asked one.

The guy laughed, and said something like: "If I don't get back in shape, I lose several million dollars and my career." They're highly motivated, to say the least.

You've never wanted to be attractive to whatever gender you're attracted to? I find it surprising that this can be "totally foreign" to any human that's not asexual.

Being the most attractive version of yourself that you can be isn't just about sex, either. It really does open doors socially and economically. Right or wrong, people enjoy the company of people who put thought and effort into their appearance. And if for no other reason, your partner certainly appreciates it!

AFAIK the EU isn't neighboring any countries without governments or which are a war zone. So in theory, there should be very very few people seeking refugee status in the EU - the odd individuals persecuted for their political beliefs or religion. There's a process for that which was working quite fine, before being subverted by economic migrants trying to gain refugee status, or actual refugees avoiding safe countries along the way and applying in Europe. So ironically exactly those persecuted people may have to wait much longer to clarify their status.

The fact that someone lost their papers or had them stolen is their problem. The EU isn't responsible for solving everyone's problem, in fact the political conflicts within the EU are mainly caused by EU countries pretending that they can.

Why would we want to have 3-5 competitors for same thing tho? That would just make 10x more expensive for everyone.

Same with cellular networks. There's some theoretical sharing, but in practice we're covering same area 3x times at 3x slower total bandwidth...

Some governments are starting to realise this is huge ripoff and start their own networks with MVNO's, similar how copper/fibre telco's and power companies are have been sorted for decades. Unsure why space should be different. Sat tech is reasonably simple, it's just launch cost where competition is at. Same way the only competitior between cell network operators is tower installation (third party) and support (abhorrent).

> "There is no "they" in Tampermonkey. It's just me, a developer from Germany [...] I don't have the resources that large companies do have for testing. I have a regular job (40-hour workweek) and besides this I also spent some time with my wife and my daughter. And finally, and this is the most important one, there are too many unknowns. There are forks of almost every browser, each with slight differences and every new browser version can break things. [...] TL; DR: The Tampermonkey developer needs some data to become aware of bugs happening in the wild. You can disable it. All data is anonymized to the developer. No browsing data is collected."

Talent is a multiplier, but the needle can go negative.

It can be a trap. I knew a guy in college, “Kevin” who was not naturally good at anything except perseverance. He worked his ass off all the time. He was doing much better than people like me who could pick things up and be an expert beginner in hours or days, because most of us never worked anywhere near that hard for anything in our lives. I had worked that hard for exactly one thing at this point, which put me at a vantage point of being able to see both groups. None of my other peers really understood Kevin. I confess I didn’t always either.

If you can fill your days with things that you are “talented” at, you never get around to the things that are hard but make you a better person or for a richer life. You can justify quitting before you ever start, and only later figure out that “compensating qualities” simply don’t. Not all the time. Especially in a crisis.

She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man

Today a couple of the things that people think I’m talented at, I simply believe are possible when everyone else has given up. The Talent, if there is one, is a better sense of possibility, and a belief that at least a few people could figure things out if they could be arsed to do so. If there’s a second Talent, it’s in figuring out that not only are people fundamentally the same, century after century, but in many cases so are the problems they struggle with. Much like there is some underlying quality of NP-complete problems that makes them interchangeable. Solving problems is itself a thing you can study, and it can make you “talented” in whatever you care to be arsed to try.

If you want to hire a top 1% programmer you look at achievement. What have they been doing fur the last few years, and how does it relate to what you need to get done.

Just founded NeXT? Well, what you need is a developer with solid experience developing efficient multithreaded virtual memory operating system kernels. Oh look, here’s a project at Carnegie Mellon University doing exactly that. Let’s hire from there. Sorted!

Now we need a solid compiler tool chain fir MacOS. This exciting project at the University of Illinois looks good, let’s hire one of the founders. Bingo!

See, it’s not that hard in theory. You just have to actually know what you’re after, and have the resources to get it. Unfortunately most of us can’t offer top salaries, or the most exciting cutting edge projects that top people will want to work on. We end up trying to hire the top 1% of people who end up applying for jobs at our organisation. That’s a very different problem from hiring a true one percent-er.

There are still a lot of issues to fix before reaching that point, but I like what i've built so far: https://mtvs.chaz.pro

Thanks again for these truly useful articles !
> I could put in all the hours of practice and guided training into boxing as Mike Tyson and I wouldn’t get nearly the same results.

I think this fails to recognise the talents that Mike Tyson has leveraged: the soft skills and gumption to identify the best trainers, the best team, the best opportunities, and to seize those, being motivated to gain fame and plaudits. Plus consistent, world-class training and experience on top - working outside of the 30 hours of class.

These skills are very transferable to other fields. Look, for example, at the George Foreman Grill.

Could you have done the same? Yes, I think it's possible. But, viewing it as only practice and guided training seems like a fundamental error.
BTC is liquid enough today for companies to move $1B without moving market (see MicroStrategy). Granted, money (USD specifically) is even more liquid, but that's why it's money -- by definition, money is the most liquid good.

BTC's liquidity has been increasing and will continue to increase in the future, so it's just a matter of time.

And you are again conflating SoV with volatility. Todays cash (USD) is not volatile but it's a terrible SoV. That's why no one is storing their wealth in USD and flee to harder assets (stocks, bonds, gold, and BTC).

Highly recommend this video for how investment firms think about BTC and SoV and how you should too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlXqfibqb38

When I used to go clubbing in Munich entry was anywhere between 5€ and 20€ (with 10€ usually being the sweet spot cost-quality wise). Dress-code in most venues. This was around 2006-2008. Berlin at the time was considered cheap/left/alternative. Hamburg has always been dominated by no dress code, much fewer entry fees (with exceptions).

I wonder how Reeperbahn will do after Corona. It's already changed from mostly local private establishments to more and more corporate fuckery. If there is one thing people in St. Pauli hate it's corporate fuckery.

Pistol grips do not inherently make a weapon system more maneuverable, as they do not change any of your leverage on the firarm, nor its centre of mass or mass distribution. Making a weapon more comfortable does not make it more deadly since you can always fire more rounds if you miss. Pistol grips are simply easier to manufacture than weird shapes of wood or plastic.

Predictive text and image classification are not the extent of ML's limits, even going by what is currently in production. Recommendation engines, ETA prediction, translation, drug discovery, medicinal chemistry, fraud detection—these are all areas where ML is already very important and present.

I agree with your point. However,

'Retard' is a word that has historically been used to describe a person with an intellectual disability, but has entered language as offensive slag. Unfortunately using the word in this way carries the connotation that people with disabilities are stupid or flawed. People often don’t mean this when they use the word 'retard', but it still causes people pain and reinforces negative stereotypes.

I'm sure that this was the last thing on your mind, and I'm sorry for bringing it up. But I hope I've encouraged you to rethink how you use the word.

I first learned about ADRs in a course led by Michael Nygard, author of the book Release It (https://pragprog.com/titles/mnee2/release-it-second-edition/). Since then, I've seen them used well by our Platform Team (Scaling/SRE/Infra), but our product teams have not adopted.

Interesting to also read Nygard's post from 2011 on ADRs: https://www.cognitect.com/blog/2011/11/15/documenting-archit...
I think that what people perceive as "talent" is for a large part just intrinsic motivation which leads to an "early start". Many of us got early starts in computers because we were interested in them and were intrinsically motivated. By the time we went to college, we already had a decade of experience under our belts. That experience is obviously flawed, and you can't compare it with a decade of "real" experience, but it's still a head start. This can make you seem really talented in the eyes of people who have yet to start making the mistakes you made 10 years ago. Does that mean you'll have this edge forever? Of course not.

And sure, there's a factor of luck and physical/mental ability involved as well, but those aren't really the mysterious part of "talent".
> some jurisdictions have tackled models whose body fat percentage is dangerously low [...]

Breaking out of the echo chamber loop
As far as I know a lot of those api's like aRts and ESD have not been relevant for 10+ years. An article from 2021 mentioning them seems a bit strange and contributes to the impression that things are a lot more fragmented then they really are.

Yep all those things you describe fall under talent. A big one in sports is your genetic predisposition to how fast you can recover. Or how much punishment you can take before your body breaks.

A common training approach for eastern europe gymnastics is to take a bunch of 5 year old kids, train them all the same. Whomever is left standing at 13 gets to compete in international meets.

After 10 years of boxing, I can give a fun round or two even to people prepping for olympic tryouts (I’ve tried). But a talented 14 year old kid training to go pro in a few years ... they smoke me every time. Even my fully developed adult musculature and the years of ring experience can’t compete with their level of focus and talent. I look like a fool every time.

> with enough proper training the difference between two trained professionals is very, very small

At the extreme ends of elite competition everyone works ridiculously hard. Everyone has the perfect nutrition and the training and the coaches and so on. When the difference between olympic silver and gold in swimming is the length of a knuckle ... either we’re seeing random probabilities playing out (the competition is within margin of error for the test), or it’s genetics.

What else could it be?

Technical is quite a broad term. There are quite some challenges in designing and engineering large ML data pipelines, both from a technical and business perspective. But I agree it's a specific problem that is arguably boring to a lot of people. Some people take more fun in the modelling part, others more in the engineering. Personally, I'm more into the engineering part than creating the actual model.

My reasoning is the following, and as someone who likes to do weight lifting I would love to be proved wrong: if steroids are not necessarily bad and we surely know they work wonders how is it possible that, in a world obsessed with looks and moving so much money in all kind of (absurd) products, they have not been legally commercialized somehow.
Not all American weirdness is unique to America. Eg oftentimes Canada can be similar. Education in the U.K. is still pretty expensive, depending on what one considers the cost to be. Also Americans tend to have higher incomes than other countries so it isn’t necessarily shocking when some things are more expensive.
Let me relate for you how Bitcoin has been sold to me at various times in the past, because its entire history at this point seems to have been forgotten by bitcoin proponents.

First it was a revolutionary currency, which would replace fiat with a deflationary alternative. Then it was a revolutionary payment network which would displace evil incumbents (despite being fundamentally unsuited to this task). Then it was for micropayments. Then it was for selling drugs and doing things governments don't want you to do. Then there was the lightning network which would make it super fast and super distributed at the same time, solving all known problems by this time next year (in 2015). Then it was for transferring money across borders. Then it was a revolutionary technology called blockchain for building apps on top of, who cares about the currency. Then it was for tracing assets and proving ownership of every asset in the world with blockchains. Then it was for smart contracts - we're going to replace the law with the blockchain. Then it was going to the moon (in 2017), and who cares what it is used for, or even if anyone is using it, because it's going to make us all rich baby - we still appear to in that last phase because nobody seems to know or care about the value of it, only the price.

With apologies to Oscar Wilde, we currently seem to know the price of everything, but the value of nothing, and the rising price is what is driving current interest in Bitcoin, nothing else.
The data that's been released in the UK was using a newer rapid method, looking at death before coroners issue a conclusion. NCISH are calling this real time monitoring data. Some local areas sometimes call this data "suspected self inflicted deaths".

Suicides in the UK have not been increasing for a long time. They increased this year for the first time since 2007. There are a few reasons for this, but part of it is a change in the standard of proof used by coroner's after the Maughan case. Coroner's used to have to use "beyond all reasonable doubt", and now have to use "balance of probabilities" for a conclusion of suicide.

And perhaps countries do it because it benefits them that random companies can come and incorporate themselves in their country, but it doesn't benefit them (and often hurts them) when random people can?

After all, there ARE countries where more or less anyone can relatively easily become a citizen, it's just that most people don't want to actually live in those countries.

Some countries give people easy visas on arrival. Others make you jump through several hoops. Why? Perhaps this works out best for both groups of countries. The first group benefits from the tourism dollars, the second group perhaps sees benefits from not having the country flooded by tourists who might or might not leave easily.
I'm personally partial to the GPU drivers.

Every now and then I get booted to cli on startup and I have to reinstall the Nvidia drivers to get sddm to launch properly.

Also every time I reboot it's completely random if the login screen will be at 1080p or 4k (I have a 4k monitor).

Maybe it's because I've got an Nvidia card.

I'm scared to update because I know I'll have to spend hours fixing the audio and video, and whatever else again.
