Other recordings from ICE suggest that at least for some students, the "university" did not tell students there would be no classes until they had already enrolled. It was only after they had phoned in to ask about the class schedule that the confused students were told there would be no classes.

The outrage is twofold:

1. It's another example of Amazon blaming drivers for what Amazon themselves could control.

2. It's another example of Amazon doing something grossly invasive and of dubious effectiveness when simply tracking the hours individual drivers work and limiting them accordingly would get the job done.
Can you give me another GPGPU framework that puts in the effort to have up-to-date benchmark comparisions between different hardware?

Just as an example I just bought an M1 laptop. Even PyTorch CPU cross-compiling hasn't been done properly, and TensorFlow support is full of bugs. I hope that with M1X it will be taken more seriously by Apple.

I understand your point (Julia is a great example), but trying to support a rarely used hardware with a rarely supported framework is just not practical. (Stick with CUDA.jl for Julia :) )

Liars and abusers are emotionally invested in what they're trying to convince you of. They try to sell you their story.

Rolex doesn't need to advertise on public spaces. They will just sponsor an event that attracts the wealthy, like a sailing race or a horse race.

On another note, rebinding ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-s etc. in the terminal (including Vim) can be confusing, since most ctrl commands will be caught by stty (in most terminal emulators) and never passed on to the running application. If you really wanted to, you could rebind Vim's yank/paste to ctrl-c, ctrl-v by unbinding the stty commands.

# 1. check the bindings for your system
stty -a
# 2. put the stuff you want to unbind in your shell rc file
stty <command name> undef

And then rebinding yank/paste in your .vimrc to only use your system clipboard.

This would, however, become painful as soon as you need to quickly use a machine remotely where all your local configs won't be present. It also generally raises the question why one is using Vim in the first place, if one is not planning to use its powerful features.
I am not anti-nuclear though, I don't know where you got that from. Your example isn't even in production use yet so what I said was factually correct and if this is the only country in the entire world then this problem will persist for at least another few decades. It seems like you have very strong feelings about this and that is clouding your rational judgement.
Honestly that doesn't even really save you any time. Neither does leaving the side loading door open constantly (though I've witnessed drivers from other DSPs doing that, too). That's another thing that vehicle telemetry can already tell them, so this is still simply unnecessary.
Yes. Notice that if the goal was really "safety" (as stated), the company does not need a "live feed" ever, a warning to the driver is enough. After all his safety is in his own best interest.
How big is the latency between these edge locations and AWS and Google GCP regions?

Since if the DB is hosted on AWS or GCP, then there would be latency going to that too.

That's what I'm really curious about.

Vercel being mainly on AWS would make the latency to the DB optimal if it is hosted on AWS in the same region. But what if the DB is on GCP?

>Keeping the money has parallels with asset forfeiture..

Not really. Hardly proceeds of crime. More like a fine collected via fraud.
To be clear, this is just a difference in the traditional grammatical terminology for each language. Linguistically speaking neither English nor Spanish has any such thing as a "present continuous tense".

Of course, the exact linguistic notion of "tense" is not particularly relevant to most people learning a language. I'm not objecting to its broader use in the context of language learning.
True, but these claims do not survive a scientific review.
It's not the norm in driving either, but expect both to be on the upswing. AI to analyze retail feeds has been productized by a number of companies over the last few years. Right now they mainly do customer data collection, but monitoring employees is trivial.
I like `xsel --clipboard` which Does The Right Thing by automatically deciding if it should copy or paste.

# Paste clipboard into command.
xsel --clipboard | grep foobar
# Copy into clipboard
grep foobar somefile.txt | xsel --clipboard
# Transform clipboard.
xsel --clipboard | tr A-Z a-z | xsel --clipboard

I find this so useful that I have it aliased to `c`.
But then some OS can both have and be POSIX. It’s POSIX all the way down!
The reason for saying that English has no future tense goes beyond just morphology. 'Will' is a modal operator that has no inherent future sense. For example, you can say "John will be here already". You can't do that with a true future tense. See e.g. http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/005471.h... for more on this. If you try translating the examples at the bottom into a language with a true future tense, then 90% of them will come out as gibberish, or as meaning something quite different.
I think we're coming at this from fundamentally different worldviews. Mine tells me employers always turn new technology against labor. I don't assume it will happen, I look to history and make an informed prediction.

I'm impressed to see spring 2020 WHO mask denialism persist all way into this season.

Virtually all countries that stuck to mask regimen a year ago despite the misguided advice regurgulated here have the epidemic under control for a long long while.
This is because the things people are worried about is found in Executive Order 12333. From section 2.3 of the EO, “ Agencies within the Intelligence Community are authorized to collect, retain or disseminate information concerning United States persons only in accordance with procedures established by the head of the agency concerned and approved by the Attorney General, consistent with the authorities provided by Part 1 of this Order ... Collection within the United States of foreign intelligence not otherwise obtainable shall be undertaken by the FBI”

The tl;dr is that agencies in the intelligence communities must take full consideration of Americans’ rights when collecting information, and historically have not found suitable procedures to operate internally that satisfy the lawyers.

That is how we ended up with FISA because we determined that the only way to protect Americans from the IC trampling on their rights (but still enable internal collection when necessary) was to have a judge examine every request to collect intelligence on US soil. The counter argument to this article is that the NSA doesn’t need specific permission from Congress to collect within the borders of the US- they just have to come up with a way to do it that their general counsel and the Attorney General agree protects the rights of Americans. I know FISA has shortfalls, but we shouldn’t get rid of it and enable mass surveillance of Americans by the NSA just because election security is a hot topic. The erosion of rights is nearly irreversible. There are other options that don’t worry me, such as asking the NSA to assist in securing our election process and critical infrastructure, to decrease the size of the blind spot they have and enable the FBI to do the internal monitoring as intended.

Counting [public] healthcare as "income" from labor seems extremely... Republican.

I was a fairly disruptive kid in school. It was all boyswillbeboys stuf. Drinking and smoking with friends in abandoned sections of the school. The kind of stuff that seems really serious then, and inconsequential now.

I was brought in front of the board for expulsion after a litany of these types of things, and questioned about anything and everything for about two hours.

We took the case to the board of education and got copies of all of the board members notes, one of which enraged me then and now.

Scrawled in the margins of this members notes - random physiological and psychological phrases. "R.E.M?" for rapid eye movement, "no empathy", "slouching" etc.

Some armchair psychologist that thinks a kid in a high pressure situation, looking around at a board of nine people, is displaying sociopathic traits. That somehow my seating posture related to my character.

They expelled me, and it was ultimately overturned by the state. Still bothers me that people try to apply these dogshit cues to make real life major decisions.

"Vindictive" and "spiteful" were some other good ones. They'd convinced themselves I was doing it to get them or something. The truth is, I was a bored unstimulated kid and the only consideration they got, was how I could avoid them as much as possible. Absolutely zero interest in sticking it to them or making their lives more difficult.

The TSA is security theater. They don't accomplish anything statistically significant.

The TSA is designed to make citizens of the United States feel better about their absurdly outsized risk of dying in a plane highjacking compared to literally every other civilised country on the planet.

> Not only is income inequality in America not growing, it is lower today than it was 50 years ago.

Of course. This is common sense if you understand the US welfare state has expanded radically since the late 1960s, and nearly all of that is a financial transfer from the top 1/3 to the bottom 1/3. The US has an exceptionally progressive taxation system that puts much of Europe to shame. Our single greatest governmental flaw is that we spend such a large amount of money on our welfare state and get such poor results because we don't administer it well; affluent European nations largely embarrass the US at that.

If you attempt to point any of this out using facts, you will be shouted down because it's against the popular narrative (which is to pretend that the US has no welfare state, no social safety net, the rich are evil and don't pay their "fair share" - whatever that means in a system where the top brackets pay nearly all the taxes).
> What do you mean by “decisions like like this”?

I mean the failure of empathy and respect.

Think about the experience of having a camera pointing at you all the time that you work, potentially recording and/or allowing unknown people to observe you, with the complete loss of privacy that implies. And the loss of control that comes with the knowledge that the system can admonish you at any moment, possibly without any human input, for the smallest perceived infraction.

Combine that with the employment insecurity that comes with this kind of job and you get the potential for an extremely stressful and abusive working environment.

Would you really tolerate this level of surveillance? Pre-pandemic I worked in an office too and this is in no way equivalent to being in a workspace with a few colleagues. Neither is it comparable to gps vehicle tracking or a cab radio/phone. This is several levels past that.

I'm pretty sure that was an anti-digital-computer kind of movie (as far as the topic is concerned, if you compare it with the historical events relevant to the space program). There aren't going to be armies of digital programmer computers in it.
Sounds like some serious manipulation of numbers to get the result you want. Open source the data, assumptions and formulas used and I might consider your argument WSJ
It seems like that's exactly what they did though. Maybe and that's a big maybe, they at the enrolment asked all students that they want a fake school (reports say some people transferred from other unis and actually showed up looking for classes). However even then this is the equivalent of a e.g. opening a pharmacy and advertising legal drugs and the when somebody comes in trying to sell them some heroin with their Tylenol.

If these fake schools are such a problem, why are ICE not going after the schools? Obviously because it's much easier to daemonize immigrants than some American "entrepreneurs" who make money of foreign students by creating these fake schools.
It is not a battery if you cannot get electricity out when needed.
It's a weird analogy for something that does not store energy in any form
A bit nonsensical imho. A battery by definition has to be able to produce the same type of energy that was put into it.

While correlating crypto with something random every week (Easter bunnies next Sunday?) can be marginally interesting, this instance makes no sense. We can't extract electricity from aluminum or Satoshis, we can buy it though, but that's outside of the battery scope.
I don't think it's really about the AI at all. The article mentioned a live feed which the AI activates so that your can be berated by a real-live person. From personal experience, I feel like that's what the quitting is truly about. I have quit a job before over surveillance cameras but that was back in 1980's, long before AI. The work environment there was oppressive, and not just due to the surveillance cameras. The business failed a few years later. I wasn't surprised. Blame was placed on external factors, but anyone who attempted to worked there knew it was due to the oppressive management style, of which surveillance cameras was just a tool.

If this program fails, management will blame it on a failure of AI, because that is their character. But we all know that it's easy to place blame on something that can't fight back.
I found the title to be phrased very weakly compared to the abstract.

> We study gender and race in high-impact entrepreneurship using a tightly controlled randomized field experiment. We sent out 80,000 pitch emails introducing promising but fictitious start-ups to 28,000 venture capitalists and angels. Each email was sent by a fictitious entrepreneur with randomly assigned gender and race. Female entrepreneurs received 9% more interested replies than males pitching identical projects and Asians received 6% more than Whites. Our results suggest that investors do not discriminate against female or Asian entrepreneurs when evaluating unsolicited pitch emails and that future research on investor biases should focus on networks and in-person interactions.
> In English why do you need to say “exacerbate” when you can say “make worse”? Or “defenestrate” when you mean “toss out the window”?

In English, the short, common words are the oldest ones, from Old English and Anglo-Saxon origin, the language of everyday people. The long, flowery and poetic usages came later, via French, Italian and Latin, the language of the French invaders from 1066.

You see these two distinct forms a lot in Shakespeare. Indeed he popularised many of the borrowings. Here is one great example from Macbeth:

"Will all great Neptune’s ocean wash this blood clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather the multitudinous seas incarnadine, making the green one red."

Back in 1606, when Shakespeare wrote Macbeth, only the best educated could understand "... will rather the multitudinous seas incarnadine". So Shakespeare finishes with "making the green one red", which everyone got.

* multitudinous - from Latin "multitudo"

* incarnadine - from French "incarnadin", via Italian and originally from Latin.

* red - from Old English "read", similar root as the German "rot" and Dutch "rood".

* green - from Old English "grene", similar root as the German "grun" and Dutch "groen".

So short words = old, Germanic; complicated words = newer, Latin or French/Italian.
1. This isn't just driver monitoring if there can be a "live feed" (and besides I'm not inclined to believe Amazon only uses it for that), driver monitoring would not need an internet connection if there was any value placed on workplace privacy.

2. Windows and cameras are very different things, one can record, the other can't. One is two-way, the other is not.
Hey hackers.

Wanna show you what I built essentially from 2015 or even 2014. In that year telegram, chatbots were introduced - the same time around I build a simple XML-based chatbot hosting on a local AngelHack hackathon which I won.

The next year I expand this project even more, especially on HackJunction Helsinki hackathon in 2015 where I and my team built one of the first apparel selling chatbot for Shopify - and take first place there. At the same time, I made a chatbot platform that I never published but decided to use internally.

I made a decision to move enterprise because they were ready to pay - and for the past 5 years, my company built tons of chatbots for automating HR: employee support, adaptation, recruitment, and so on - all with the help of our own engine/platform.

But 2020 and covid shit basically destroyed my company, so I scraped most of the internal services (13 to be precise), wrap it with Azure API Management (you can check how cryptic it was [here](https://xakpc.info/connecting-azure-api-management-azure-ad-...)) and published it so anyone can save their time building bots.

Now I mostly use it for myself to support several last clients and showing it around in the hope it might be useful for someone besides me and a couple of people I know.
We don’t have free healthcare in the US. It’s disingenuous to not consider health care as a benefit with monetary value. These people would otherwise have to pay actual money for health care.
