I'll agree with that. I'll reup with this criticism by Noam Chomsky though.

" "You don’t have any other society where the educated classes are so effectively indoctrinated and controlled by a subtle propaganda system – a private system including media, intellectual opinion forming magazines and the participation of the most highly educated sections of the population. Such people ought to be referred to as “Commissars” – for that is what their essential function is – to set up and maintain a system of doctrines and beliefs which will undermine independent thought and prevent a proper understanding and analysis of national and global institutions, issues, and policies.""

It's not really a bug if it works as the way it was intended by the developer. It just exists in a world outside the law, makes its own laws based on what works, a renegade program. Most people don't read the C standard or care what it says (and it costs money, so it's almost as if reading it is discouraged), so it seems very likely the default human behavior is just to use this UB.
Code reviews aren't there to catch mistakes. That's the job of unit and other tests.
That's what the corporations want you to believe because they want you to spend as much time and energy as possible being a cog in their machine and source the next generation of workers from the lowest bidder on the global scale.

I switched careers at 33 (currently 35) from structural engineering to a full stack JS career after attending a bootcamp.

Reading your comment, I wish I was in the former group of learning to code early on, taking CS and SE courses in university, etc... I work feverishly to learn as much as I possibly can about networking, Linux, hardware, SQL, etc.. along with all the JS related topics I need to learn for my job.

I just wanted to add to the conversation by saying that there are people in the later group who really want to become well rounded and not just be JS developers.

Having a hard time finding the raw data. Anyone have a link?

Doing some digging, this article provides a few better data points: https://ktla.com/news/california/employment-rose-among-those...

They act rosy about the experiment... but I have issues.

>When the program started in February 2019, 28% of the people slated to get the free money had full-time jobs. One year later, 40% of those people had full-time jobs.

125 recipients. 12% found jobs during the program. Later it says there was a control group where only 5% found full time jobs, but I couldn't find hard numbers. I mean, another 16 people finding fulltime work is good... but job quality? Any median household income increase sans UBI payment? And to be honest, 12% doesn't seem that great.

>People got the money once a month on a debit card, which let researchers track how most of the people spent it. Less than 1% of the money went to tobacco and alcohol.

Do... do I really have to point this out? Maybe because they used their regular income, untracked debit card instead. Is that really hard to believe?

All the quotes from participants saying how much greater their life is from both the WP article and this one... perfect score across the board, huh. I mean, everyone interviewed at a catholic church for a catholic newsletter talks about how great the priest is with children too.
AI is simultaneously over-hyped and a game-changer. To paraphrase a famous Marketing quip, the problem is that you need to be a domain expert as well as an ML expert in order to judge which are the over-hyped parts.

As a consultant specializing in building Data Science teams, I've been shouting this idea that you can only build AI products on top of a robust data pipeline and, more importantly, culture, from the roof-tops for years. Monica Rogati's formulization of it, the "AI hierarchy of needs"[0] helps a lot to instill a mental image in managers.

> because I don't feel the same way myself, at least not all the time.

Depending on how you are interepting the other commenter's use of the word "similar" you might be trying to say either:

a) I don't think other people are conscious (a fairly exceptional claim)

or

b) I don't think other people are that similar to me (a fairly unremarkable claim)
If you have very good health insurance then the main cost for having children is going to be the increased cost of housing, which can be a capital investment. In addition to mortgage deduction, families also get deductions for children so there really isn't much to be saved by not having children until later in life.
This is not directed at you personally but I find the whole conundrum tiresome and frustrating. Systems reply, Searle's reply, virtual mind reply, and then Searle replies something like "but a virtual mind can not be really conscious". At the end we are just left with the question "do you agree or disagree with functionalism and computationalism" and all the arguments on both sides turn out to be just empty statements of agreement or disagreement.
Library view, All Photos, then click and shift-click to select a range of photos, File -> Export Unmodified Original. That way you can export a chunk at a time, as long as you keep track of which ones you stopped at for each batch.
More accurately, in right-handed populations subjects there is good correlation between localized brain insults and specific functional deficits. The association between brain insult locations and specific functional deficits is less strongly correlated in left-handed people and certain other subpopulations. These are also very much tendencies and not predictors for individuals.

If this doesn't get taken advantage of by google, this would be awesome.

I bet if a random open source project of the same kind were released, it would probably be pointed at as a reason why Google is evil ('see there are good alternatives!'). But because Google is doing it, people are (rightly) wary and (definitely not rightly) calling it evil without doing research.

As someone who's been on Reddit for a decade, the amount of astroturfing is astounding. Particularly active brands are mC'ds, coke - but there are so many others.

I'm also now convinced that there is a lot of psyop intel type operations that aim to spread their goals via reddit. Either pro / anti a foreign policy position.

I think these types of posts could probably easily be flagged and isolated but it doesn't seem to be a priority for reddit. I guess making money and invading users privacy is way more important for now.

I place targeted advertising in the "creepy spam" category. It's still spam.

If I was to receive an unwanted phone call from a travel agency while I am browsing plane tickets on the net, that would be creepy and annoying to me: I prefer to make thoughtful decisions by myself, thank you.

I realize not everyone thinks the same way. But in my opinion, advertisement has a severe net negative impact on our society, and would like to get rid of it altogether.

I already pay for targeted advertisement that comes in the news articles I read, no need to force-feed me.

I've seen that fun video (in French [1]) where a person asks various advertisers their opinion on the role of advertising in the society, then asks them about an "electric knife" ad that was then running. The cognitive dissonance that follows is hilarious.

You're underestimating how conservative people are in general.

There is a fear of Islam propagation in general populace of India, and there are valid reasons for it.

When you have uninformed general populace, it's easy to portray yourselves as protector of the culture and they will become fans of you, and defend every action of you. It doesn't matter you make their lives bad, corruption becomes rampant or economy goes shit. All that matters is creating a common enemy for all people.

It has worked well for BJP, because the opposition party was full of nepotism and old tactics such as minority appeasement. They came late to this propaganda game, and as long as they are nepotistic and have this muslim party image they can't do shit.

I don't think all people defending modi here are paid to do that. Let's be real, they are emotionally connected. And the problem cannot be solved by dismissing more than half of the population.

It's indirect communication. It reminds me of Windows "OK" boxes vs. OS X "Save". The linked text should describe the contents of the link, like a label. It's more readable (since link text is styled differently) when skimming the text and removes an extraneous phrase from the prose. Have you ever seen an NYTimes article use "here" as link text? No, they just write, and link the relevant words.

I wish this existed as well but with the added element of AI based merging where it can take the best in focus faces (eyes open and smiling) and composite them into a single image. Seems very possible but I haven’t heard of an implementation.
I'm pretty sure in most systems I use, processing time is not deterministic and it depends on what else the system is doing at the time and it's temperature, among other factor of which the progress bar won't be aware.

A progress bar will usually present the "expected" duration of several operations, [almost] none of which have a deterministic duration, or a deterministic ratio from one to the other. The best we can do is put heuristics in place to estimate how long the operations will take. We have some choices, such as estimating the total time or estimating each sub-operation separately. We can even use AI for the estimation, if we want to get fancy. But the problem is not tractable, and we'd rather given estimates where we can that just use spinners everywhere.
In 2008 and really also in 2020, the bulk of the created dollars wasn't given to people where it might create consumer price inflation, by a vast degree it was allocated at the top. There it is creating asset price inflation local to the place of major injection.

It's a poor stimulus effect if one is trying to use it to move the economy.
And for $1/dose, as if I want to save $2 instead of getting two doses more quickly... What the hell were they thinking?
Also important to remember is that breast milk isn’t essential. There are of course many studies that show that breast milk is great in so many ways, but on the other hand, a lot of perfectly healthy adults were fed formula, so maybe it’s nothing anyone should give up their career for.
My wife is a tax accountant. From a software perspective taxes are a nightmare. I made a service BasisCalc (https://basiscalculator.com/) to automate just one little part of the big multi-dimensional elephant that is the tax code and it was terrifically hard to implement. I can't imagine doing the entire tax stack. There's local, state, federal, and international. The code changes all the time. The dates change all the time. There are real substantial penalties for being late. There are so many data sources to integrate. She spends thousands a year and many hours of her time simply on tax code updates. She has serious legal liability for her work. So will your software. I would pick an easier target, like solving world hunger or world peace. Taxes will be simpler when politicians want them to be simpler and there's no profit in that.

We Started a AI Based AB Testing Service – Story of Abtesting.ai
That's true, and it definitely can be!

In my opinion, the best way to approach this situation is with "non-violent communication"[0] in mind.

Don't make the conversation about "this is your fault, do better", instead make it about "I noticed a bug in my code that could have broken production and I think we can do better".

It takes trust to pull off conversations like these without coming across as a prick. This type of empathy is particularly important when mentoring others because... People are always going to make mistakes. They create great opportunities to help somebody learn though.

When I am being taught something, I learn much more quickly when somebody points to somewhere I failed versus explaining an "abstract" bad pattern. Maybe having the "abstract" idea first helps. It might make the "failure" easier to stomach later. For me though, those moments of stumbling always stuck as lessons I reflect back on the most.

My attention to detail with code became a lot higher when I was on-call and prod broke at 4am because of a bug I let slip!

They sort of support "pro" users, but at a premium. Comcast's 1GB package is somewhere between $80 and $100 depending on contract duration and payment options. 2GB internet is $299/mo plus $1k in installation fees! But at least in the review I read it's symmetrical.

> How is America behind on this?

We don't invest in the future, only immediate profits. Look at any other infrastructure....subways, roads, water, electrical, government systems, education, recycling, etc. They're all crumbling.
It's certainly economically worse, sure, but on the other hand you might be optimizing for other things. I for one would like to know my grandkids, and if I have my first kid at 40, and my kid has their first kid at 40, I'll have likely died of old age before my first grandkid reaches high school. Plus, I really like the idea of my kids being out of the house before my 60s. Factor those in with the studies about the relationship between the health of children and the age of the parents, and I'm willing to trade some potential income for those considerations (although that has limits, and having kids early can have quite substantial economic downsides, especially if you're a woman, and doubly especially if you end up out of the workforce entirely to raise them).
The EU is not 'behind' because of it's naive generosity to other nations.

An export ban would have made hardly any difference as production would have probably been aligned around the fact.

The EU is not 'naive' - it is 'failing' perhaps the most important test since it's inception.

Being a 'few months behind' US/UK/China etc. will mostly ok, but if it's more than 6 months behind, then this failure will resonate for decades.

Fair or not fair, right or wrong, the facts will be immaterial to the headlines that will ring for a very, very long time.

time is worth more than money. I'm glad I spent some time in my 20s raising little tikes so I can have more time with them.

Having kids late in life is like a deathbed confessional. people just want to cross "birth children" off their list, but don't really think about being a mother/father for the rest of their life.

If you value career over family thats cool, but you wont get returns on "family-as-an-asset" if you invest late in life. Invest early for greater returns.

>Why does ICANN being “private enterprise” relate to the question of when it’s appropriate, in general, to consider the stated items?

As my original reply mentioned, if you control basic, necessary infrastructure your consideration of such things must be clear and strictly held. Those are the guidelines ICANN should follow, they set limits and must follow them.

Why would this be an area to discuss what guidelines other kinds of businesses should follow? It's an odd choice in my opinion, and my only advice to such businesses is "do as you wish."

And please stop the unnecessary insults. The only thing I have accused you of is mudslinging, and I don't feel there's any reason to call me "whiny" and "entitled" for possibly poorly wording my point.
I'm familiar with Option-cmd-p-r as well as other enumerable startup sequences. That was kind of the joke with Apple. Good UX principles were very much a "do as I say, not as I do" kind of thing. ;-)
A notable difference is that the US declared this policy upfront, while the EU is doing it late in the game.

Astrazeneca may have made other supply chain decisions to build infrastructure outside the EU had they known this.
>Imagine saying "who cares Cystic Fibrosis kills x people, heart disease is worse!"

You're completely missing the point here: we have finite time and resources to deal with problems. We must dedicate these finite time and resources in the most efficient way to possible to achieve the most desired outcome.

If by "worse" you mean "heart disease causes more deaths and drives higher social costs" then yes there is a strong argument to be made on addressing the root causes driving heart disease with more resources and time then cystic fibrosis. But, again, your analogy is contrived-and-forced-apples-to-oranges with the topic at hand.
