Yes, Amazon and Ebay are allowed to stop selling the book at the publisher's request, but they're not required to. This is voluntary action on their part.
Somewhat good advice, but with a caveat. While a good narrative is generally helpful, results still matter. Case in point, a team that ships quickly but also has crunch time can craft a story about heroic devs staying long hours to ship a product, but this is not better than doing things right the first time to avoid crunch

I'd actually like to pose a similar question: is there a "Bob Ross"-like series for drawing with a tablet? My wife and I have had some fun in quarantine following a few Bob Ross videos using our iPads but the sort of techniques you can get with a physical brush aren't really available in Photoshop / Affinity Designer (or if they are, we don't understand them yet).

> There's a bell curve on each issue independently. This has been well established by surveys.

I'd be curious to see the data. Measuring agreement is challenging. (Strongly Agree versus Agree mean different things to different people.) And polarizing issues tend to be multi-modal, thereby defying normal characterization.

Where one can create an objective x-axis, e.g. with increasing strength of regulation on a topic, one frequently sees non-normal preference patterns.
It's certainly an interesting topic. It's not good to submit home pages of blogs or content sites to HN though. The discussion has nothing to sink its teeth into beyond the generic theme of the site, and that leads to shallower discussion.

It's much better to submit the most interesting article from a site, the one that goes into the most unexpected specifics. I looked at a bunch of the articles on this site and they all seem pretty lightweight, unfortunately.
Actually I think that was it! The size and keyboard wasn't even as good as a calculator of the day. I ultimately got the Atari 400 with membrane keyboard and my dad insisted I upgrade it with a third-party mechanical one that looked all-Frankenkeys sticking up out of the slim case. I liked the membrane keys, later Atari 400 manufacturing keys didn't come out as well as the early models--I had friends and stores' models to compare with.
I think if you want this from an engineering perspective then Mark Kistler's You Can Draw in 30 Days is a good bet. It's not about how to see (unlike Drawing With the Right Side of the Brain) but if you want to draw certain types of things from your imagination, then it might do what you need and doesn't need too much equipment etc.

Ultimately if you want to be good at drawing, I suspect you have to be prepared to invest a fair amount of time - if you enjoy it won't feel like that, but if you don't then there are probably diminishing returns.
Almost every city has a noise ordnance that prevents this. Just call the PD and file a noise complaint every time it happens.

Oh yeah, it's already here. The money to be made is huge. Used to be you'd go buy a Honda mower and it would run with practically zero maintenance for 20 years or more. Now you go get a cordless mower and replace batteries every two or three years, and the whole thing becomes obsolete pretty quickly. It's a lucrative market.
> I have bought many native Linux games that simply don’t launch, but run perfectly in Proton. Companies also stop updating their Linux ports often

They also stop updating their Windows versions, the main difference is that Microsoft cares a bit more about backwards compatibility than the vast majority of Linux desktop developers.
Why is the runaway scenario unavoidable for nuclear fission? Pressurized water reactors for example have negative void and temperature coefficients, and from what I've read about potential future reactors designs (e.g. high temperature gas reactors and some of the molten salt reactors) passive/inherent safety is a major selling point.
> The great games have no "finish".

Hah well this is obviously highly subjective.
We need to call on Home Depot etc. to stop selling these.
I didn't say it was a C replacement, I said it was approachable to C programmers.

Most of the C lovers that I have spoken with find that Rust is far too complicated with templates and lifetimes. Similar arguments can be provided for Scala and Kotlin with their more functional syntax.
Is this for a land line phone or cell phone ring? For a cell phone ring, I'd write an app that then communicates to the light via bluetooth. For a landline, I'd have to see how to detect an incoming call when the ringer is muted, probably not too hard, then again create something that communicates to the light control via bluetooth

The qualifier "consider" is very important but was removed by the OP.
- tritium is used in nuclear weapons as a booster

It is, but tritium is not put into bombs. Lithium is.

Unless all fissile materials are banned. It is very easy to check for the existence of fissile materials. If there were no legitimate, safe reasons to have any fissile materials in use on the planet, then a global ban on fissile materials is on the table. A treaty where every nation checks on the other is reasonable. It is hard to build a secret fusion reactor, just as its hard to build a secret uranium centrifuge.

Fusion research has been steadily progressing for many years. The "50 years away and always will" quip is baloney.

From Amazon's perspective you have not poisoned the well... you are someone who is likely to buy those things. Amazon does not care if you really like or even use them, it only cares if you buy them.

“Confirmation... from a reputable source.” We’re at information bankruptcy. There are no reputable sources. There are only the inferences you may draw about sources based upon the lies they tell you.
Ah, fast growing and thick, yeah. I had to mow every week and could push it to 2-3 in very dry weather.
No. Most US houses have, at most, a single 240V outlet in the laundry room for an electric dryer. Literally everything else is 120V. There is almost no household equipment other than drying machines that is sold taking a 240V plug.

Electric cars may change this. They haven't yet, at least not much.

There doesn't need to be a disclosure notice on shitcoin shilling for a reasonable person to assume that it is a risky investment that may result in 100% lows.

Meanwhile, thousands are engaging in this exact behavior and going unprosecuted.

The fact that these specific people were chosen for the enforcement of this specific not-crime is, to me, highly suspect.
There goes my plan for a leaf powered leaf vacuum.
My theory for why this is is that in the past when the web was arcane and challenging to learn to develop, this actually acted as a filter for people who had a special sort of intellectual curiosity and passion to really push through and make what they wanted to make. It’s great now that the web is so broadly accessible, but now no such filter exists, so truly creative sites are fewer and further between.
If you compare for equality then those two numbers, 0.0 and -0.0, are considered equal. It seems a lot of people consider that a good reason for them to have the same hash value, which I consider entirely fairly reasonable.

Of course since NaN != x, whatever x is (including infinity and NaN), one could argue it's fine for different NaNs to return different hash codes. But I think most people think of NaN as one thing, and not the 9007199254740990 or so different NaN encodings[1] there are in a double.

In the case of OOT, SRM was found accidentally and then researched via live-debugging using emulators and the decompilation project which in turn exists because a debug ROM of OOT MQ was leaked and people were willing to manually rewrite code to match the assembly.

Oh cool, are we going to bring back phrenology as long as its an AI powered black box. Sounds wonderful. It's going to be impossible for any of this to be abused. I say we should give AI power to a select few people who can make sweeping decisions in everyone's life. Oo Oo can we bring back eugenics too? What's wrong with an AI powered method of selecting the best genes to continue the human race. Then we can sterilize the degenerates the almighty algorithm picks out.

I swear to fuck. All this praise to repeat the sins of the 20th century all over again? But oh no, it's okay because it's done by "software engineers".

That and you "atheists techies" are just as fanatically religious as jihadists. Instead of a deity, you worship silicon valley and algorithms.

Of course tech companies can be trusted with our data.

Theres nothing to fear from putting your life on social media if you have nothing to hide.

A select few should have absolute say on what we are allowed to even consider "free speech".

Tech companies aren't in it for profit, they're in it to save the world because they're the "educated elite".

Just... why is this not being shot down? Are you that blind to where it's going to lead? Its literally the same steps every other totialirian psychopath took. Mass identification on bullshit pseudoscience. Then comes the extermination.
It's the best review of the book I've read. It's not conspiratorial to acknowledge the over-representation of Jewish authors listed in the bibliography.
I'm actually kind of confused here; NVDLA has been around for a while. What is new or interesting here that changes anything? I did a cursory look to see if there's any new announcements, but - even things like the roadmap on the site show a 2017 roadmap, and the last commits to the hw and sw repos are 2019. Perhaps this needs an edit to say it's from... 2017? Or is it 2019?

> The difference between DRM and anti-cheat is just semantics

Not really - DRM = anti-copying/anti-piracy, anti-cheat is self-explanatory. Both sometimes employ similar strategies (anti-tampering/poking around with executables, linked libraries or memory), but they are not the same thing
Most front lawns are unused space that people pay to maintain because “that’s how it’s supposed to be”.

And heavens forbid leaves build up around plants, we must remove all compost like that because it will contaminated the soil, it’s so unnatural.

In a front lawn or landscaping that no one uses, it should be low maintenance native plants that are adapted to the weather so they barely need water and will benefit by letting the leaves decay. Send the leaves through a shredder if one really hates the sight of leaves.

Why aren't all the existing products in ETL-for-marketers space already the answer to the question you pose?

Most companies have a users table, and there are a ton of products that can, without code, ETL a users table into all sorts of tools. There's no redundant work -- in fact, for developers there may not be any work to do at all?
He does that too.
I can sort of see how that's justified when advertising to people who don't really understand electrical units. The battery capacity is listed in kilowatt hours. If you don't really understand what a kilowatt is but you know the battery has a capacity of 60 kilowatt hours, and the charger charges at 10 kilowatt hours per hour, then it'll charge in about 6 hours.

Still, it does make me cringe a little.
The 72% number is the result when not controlling for demographics. When controlling for demographics, the results ranged from 65% to 71% accuracy.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-79310-1/figures/2

It makes we wonder what the accuracy would be if they controlled for demographics at a smaller granularity, like sub-ethnicities.

Furthermore, it appears that the Canadian dating site data set was 54% conservative, so an algorithm that always guessed conservative would be correct 54% of the time. From the article I can't tell what the balance was for the other data sets.
Nice, now for everyone else. And for all lawncare tools.

Neither deserves any scrutiny. So long as influential people exist, there will exist opportunities to profit off that influence. Forbidding this fully is impossible, which means that criminalizing it just makes unfair selective enforcement possible. This isn't justice, it's getting caught with your hand in the communal rich-influencer cookie jar.

Legalize insider trading, legalize pump and dumps, let the chips fall where they may. It's happening either way, so lets just be honest about it.
I think the broader question is whether it's a good idea in general to go through terminology or common idioms with a fine-tooth comb looking for unintentional offense or the potential to offend.

It's of course very different when the intention is to offend, as with racial slurs, but when it comes to things like master/slave db, git master, 'sanity check', the masculine/feminine in Spanish, and others that have been mentioned in this thread, you're really talking about a project to 'reform' everyday speech, with no clear boundary on when this project would ever be complete. And really, there can be no clear boundary since 'unintentional offensiveness' is a purely subjective determination that anyone can claim in response to almost any word or phrase, no matter how benign others may find it.

However progressive someone's politics might be (mine are fairly progressive fwiw), this seems like a highly questionable undertaking. There are clear echoes to measures that have been taken by totalitarian regimes in the past, like asking citizens to call out and report each other for ideological transgressions.

Considering this danger and how much it aggravates people to feel that they must walk on eggshells with their words, there seems to be very little practical benefit toward advancing any concrete progressive goals. People not feeling bad seems like kind of a wash since it also feels bad to have your character questioned based on using common/widely accepted terms.
It’s not just one person’s brain, right? Everyone who was there would see the same thing. Surely, that means our brains are pretty much wired the same. But I wonder if some people would see the “correct” thing.

What’s also mind blowing is that the camera captures the same thing your brain is interpreting!
Le Monde in France do that too. They even go as far as rewriting portions of their articles after publishing, and partially re-using them under different title(s). Hard to take them seriously when they cry about fake news when their own articles are so malleable.
So how far away would you say we are now? Because I remember "10 years away" being said in earnest since back in the early 90s.
>when a rich person tweets something and makes a ton of money it's market manipulation.

>When a hedge fund tells a journo to write an article it's business as usual.

Did the hedge funds also secretly accumulated positions in assets, deceptively promoted the assets through media as valuable long-term investments, then sold their holdings as prices rose sharply following the deceptive endorsements? Because that's what macfee is being indicted for, not because he "tweets something and makes a ton of money".
1. Test your code with super low batch size. Bad for convergence, good for sanity check before submitting your job to a super computer.

Or you can buy a desktop machine for the same price as an M1 MacBook with 32GB or 64GB RAM and an RTX2060 or RTX3060 (which support mixed-precision training) and you can actually finetune a reasonable transformer model with a reasonable batch size. E.g., I can finetune a multi-task XLM-RoBERTa base model just fine on an RTX2060, model distillation also works great.

Also, there are only so many sanity checks you can do on something as weak (when it comes to neural net training). Sure, you can check if your shapes are correct, loss is actually decreasing, etc. But once you get at the point your model is working, you will have to do dozens of tweaks that you can't reasonably do on an M1 and still want to do locally.

tl;dr: why make your life hard with an M1 for deep learning, if you can buy a beefy machine with a reasonable NVIDIA GPU at the same price? Especially if it is for work, your employer should just buy such a machine (and an M1 MacBook for on the go ;)).
Protons don't decay (as far as we can tell), they get ripped apart in black holes which evaporate into photons, mostly.

All that's left are photons, moving at the speed of light, experiencing no time, and never meeting each other as the universe expands away faster than they move.

"It's hard to bore a photon." -- Roger Penrose
I stand corrected; it's a pontoon boat.
I have some hope for this approach, but as the article points out making reliable magnets is really the key. When a fusion reactor quenches, the plasma will basically eat the reactor through "hole" in the field. I keep hoping an effort to manufacture ReBCo coils directly will be successful, it would both make them less expensive and likely more reliable. However I expect it would require something like a 5-axis 3D printer capability.

Lastly, fusion power is one of the possible 'good' future events (unlike climate change, or nuclear war) that give me hope for the future of the planet.
