I found the conclusion to be misleading, based on this “ The researchers split their study participants into two groups — those who reported having had sex with someone of the same sex, and those who didn’t. ”

So apparently you are gay if you have had sex one time with someone of same sex sometime, anytime in your life. Bisexual, bicurious, some one straight who experimented, etc would all then be “gay”, which are all more prevalent than being strictly gay.

That’s like looking for genes that predict left handedness by selecting people who at some point in their lives have written with their left hand. No wonder they got confusing / weak signals. They should have limited to including only people who actually identified as being gay.

More than that. Questions like “What is your net worth?” And questions about your experience level with stocks and options. He most likely lied.

But Robinhood obviously makes no attempt to verify the answers. If two kids, one riding on the other’s shoulders inside of a trench coat walked into a bank and claimed to be an adult, you’d put at least some blame on the bank if those kids walked out with a loan.
>> IMO Rust should have a C backend, then the maintainers could drop it as a build dependency and not break existing platforms.

Yeah, but the bible also is disapproving of premarital sex between straight people, but I don't remember seeing people fight over whether fornicators should be allowed in the military, or could adopt children.

The Bible also disapproves of people who contact swine, but no one fights for the rights of employers to fire pork-eaters based on their religious convictions. Or people wearing clothing of mixed fibers, etc.

And Jesus said it was easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of god, but no one really debates whether Christians in the bible belt would be willing to vote for a rich guy.

All this is to say, I don't think "the Bible condemns it" is a sufficient explanation for some straight people's fixation with gay sex. That preoccupation seems downright unhealthy. Maybe someone should put it in the DSM.

Native Texan (Austinite) here.

Can confirm.
The devs intentionally released a version with Rust as an optional but enabled-by-default dependency. I'm not sure how this counts as "jumped the gun" - it's basically the only safe way to roll out this change. Given the number of people in the thread who are doing automated updates in production pipelines to the latest published version (there's pushback on having to read announcements, pushback on having to read CI output to see deprecation warnings, etc.), it doesn't seem like there's any other way to get people's attention other than enabling it by default and making it easy to disable it.

They left two ways to get things working - you can set an environment variable, or you can pin the previous version, because 3.4 has no functional changes from 3.3.2. (The complete set of changes in this version are dropping Python 2, shipping a newer wheel baseline ABI, adding Rust, and adding type hints. No new features and certainly no security fixes relative to 3.3.2.)

What is the other option here?
Check out keeperdao and keepers. They sort of do what you are describing.
> Google has a pretty extreme long-tail distribution (~15% of daily queries have never been seen before)

Do you have a source for this?

I'd be willing to bet that the ONLY reason why 15% of their daily queries "haven't been seen before" is because they add un-needed complexity like fingerprinting. You're making it seem like they've never seen a query for "cute animals" before when obviously they have. They choose to do a lot of extra leg work because of who you are.

So your claim that 15% of their queries have "never been seen before" is probably inaccurate. I'd be willing to bet that "15% of their queries are unique because of the user, location, or other external factor separate from the query itself."

They've seen your query before. They've just never seen you make this query from this device on this side of town before.

I hope no business comes out of this and it becomes a common practice in altering genes. We’ve seen what monstruosities can come out of cosmetic surgeries (non-functional/vanity based): giant lips, breasts, abs,bottocks, etc. I know this news is about the face genes but there’s a short way to identify the others. Imagine one has crazy parents and are brought to this world with gigantic lips or minuscule noses and so on
I expect nothing, it is a casual opinion. You’re projecting.
What I do not understand, is how do you just accept that a major company managing people's (potentially) life savings in a regulated market has no responsibility to pick up the phone? I would accept it if RH did not communicate with the customer at all because they were overwhelmed or something. But they did communicate, they sent out an email demanding money.

Do they have no process to talk to a customer who has lost a lot of money? This is not a rare freak event, it's key part of the business they are in. You'd think about this within the first 10 minutes of even entertaining the idea of starting a trading firm.
Even the WSB reddit had a link to a suicide prevention hotline, how is RH more irresponsible than a random web forum.

We as a society don't need to bend over backwards to accomodate these zero-support business models - and especially not as the bedrock of our economy.

Lastly, I want to share a court case from Russia: for a few years it was common for banks to mass send out loan contracts in the post to random Tom, Dick and Harry. It would just appear in your postbox randomly, and if you countersign it you would get the money.
One bloke scanned the document and amended it, he really went to town: increased the borrowing limit, put in a negative interest rate, etc. The bank signed it without realising. Obviously the bank sued, argued that their business model made it impossible to read every contract and the that the guy knew that.

The judge held up the contract, saying it wasn't the customers problem their business model involves spamming people and signing things without reading.
Face has landmarks which can form a unique signature, like a fingerprint.

Mobile extracts facial landmarks “signature” and sends to server only numbers.

Server runs an algorithm to find “neighbors” to those facial landmarks based on signatures collected from museum photos and present the closest match.

Actually pretty simple nowadays. Challenge off course is to collect the museum photos, what google spent some millions doing for other project.

OP literally described their life as easy mode because of their tallness+whiteness+maleness. Maybe you should be arguing with their word choice.

Tricky problem. I’d probably buy some ETH/FTM/DOT to cover speculation on the infra side. Then get some YFI/AAVE/SNX/ROOK to cover the app speculation although there’s hundreds here to choose from.

The approach I’m taking is a blockchain agnostic one. There’s lots of middleware projects with tokens such as GRT, REN and LINK. I see middleware growing really as it has utility in defi but also other applications.
I don't think that's a fair comparison. It's not 1 sample. It's 1 sample + existing training in segmentation + existing model for expected animal build + existing model for 2d/3d extrapolation from the drawing + pre-trained capacity for reinforcement learning, etc.

If you start slightly before 2yo, you may find that after they see a cow they will call every large animal a cow for weeks/months - that's closer to one sample without all the models.
Actually on the daily communication context these two nationality words are used as representation of races. You probably will not call a black/white people with China nationality "Chinese". And I will present you another example if you consider the previous too rare: you will definitely not call people from Tibet or Uighur "Chinese", right?

I might be remembering wrong, but you forgot a step. You need to change/delete the referer header. When Reddit detects that you came from Google, for example, it will not render all of the comments and instead try to do a similar rendering of suggested other posts.

Of course, this is not something you can turn off in your preferences. You need to use a browser plug-in to do this.

I agree that it is impossible to keep up with everything. I am more viewing it from a prospective employability position and safeguarding my future interests. I may do very well writing apps in containers with traditional load balancers, but I very well better learn some Serverless and JAMStack type patterns as well, as a completely random example.

It's part of the filtering process to determine what subset you want to target, but learn something new as often as you can. The bonus I've learned over time is the more paradigms, tools, and technologies I learn and practice configuring and launching sample apps or solving simple challenges with, the more they all start to look and feel the same.

It's funny you bring up not debating your neighbours and posting online. This happened to me a few days ago. My neighbor who introduced myself to started asking lots of political questions. I didn't agree with the apparent viewpoint, but it was clear I would never change her mind, so I was just politely trying to get out of the conversation. I think the internet gives the illusion that you might find someone who will actually debate? Like it's easier to ignore that you probably aren't changing anyone's mind.
That's not strictly speaking true. You also calculate the gradient of the input. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to backpropagate over more than one layer. It's just useful because you can do both easily, where with forward mode getting derivatives with respect to weights is considerably more expensive.
They usually just use a questionnaire online. Most brokers aren't making phone calls unless it's absolutely necessary. Not saying it's the best way, but if RH is getting sued, then any other broker could be too. They could start testing people, like with a version of the CFA Fundamentals test.
> Which VPS provider are you talking about specifically?

Take any major one like OVH.

If this was a static site I could run it for free. But it's not.

> Four medium EC2 instances.

That's not even a close to the specs of the dedicated servers I am using, nor is the site "just" those four servers. Those $500 include everything from domains to backups, to various back- and front-end VPS.

>I still can't begin to imagine what your app is doing that it could possibly cost you $20,000/month.

I just told you. The egress traffic alone would cost me that much.

Look up what 500TB-1000TB of egress traffic would cost me on AWS. Last I checked it was easily north of $20,000 even with their volume discounts.

Meanwhile I can buy dedicated servers with 1Gbps dedicated and unmetered bandwidth for 60-70 bucks/month nowadays, and I won't have to worry about paying a dollar more - and certainly not thousands of dollars.

And no it's not the kind of traffic you can just run through a CDN. I would if it'd make sense. In fact I already use Cloudflare for those areas where it makes sense - shaves off around 100TB.

As a very early user of Reddit and a founder and long-time moderator of a popular subreddit, it seems to me that Reddit is cruising towards an iceberg, and it's hard to envisage them turning the ship around at this point. There's so much momentum behind the toxic nature of Reddit now and many of the good moderators are getting fed up and either jumping ship or preparing to, leaving subreddits to be managed by more self-interested and less competent people.

Over the years I've created a list of suggestions that I would have made if I had the ear of somebody in authority at Reddit. But that's one thing they've never really done - made it easy for mods, who effectively do a large part of running their website 24/7, without pay, to provide feedback and have real discussions and input with the admins. And it is to the detriment of the website, its owners and its users. I believe that Reddit will fail in the next few years, unless it undergoes radical changes soon. And by fail I mean, it will probably still exist, possibly have more users, but it will be so toxic that anyone with any sense will not go there anymore. The garden is in very real danger of being completely overtaken by weeds.

And it's a shame. I really loved Reddit, it helped me on occasions and I also saw it help many other people.

But the only reason I personally still use Reddit is because I feel an affinity for the subreddit I created and have moderated for years, and the community I have managed to create, which I am proud to say is in stark contrast to the toxicity of many other popular subreddits.
It's on my TODO list, I just had a bunch of stuff jump in front of it. I thoroughly enjoyed the first and second books. :)

That woman turned out not even to have what it took to stand up to a room full of teenagers talking. She fled in disarray, and I have never in my life before or since felt more safe than I did at the end of that half hour. Or felt less alone.

I think there are quite a lot of real world scale projects written in Rust... At least for me as an embedded developer, Rust is really superior to C/C++. Although the ecosystem is not that mature and lacks vendor support, it is easier to read/write in Rust and expect the code to work.

Do you have any features that you think experienced programmers are excited with? Or features that are required to provide real world scalability and applicability?
