Problem is history has shown that the mere existence of such information is too much of a temptation to resist. The "extraordinary" circumstances used to justify getting this data has a way of expanding over time until it becomes almost any routine reason being justification enough. The only way to combat this is for the information to not exist.

Yes, in some cases this means a guilty person will go free but we have a long standing belief in western legal culture that it is better for some of the guilty to go free than to punish the innocent for the actions of the guilty. Invading everyone's privacy in the name of catching the small minority that engage in criminal activities is punishing the innocent for the crimes of the guilty.
If you are intending to make a relatively isolated library, in its own repo, that you publish to npm, tsdx might be a good starting point.

In my case, that was not my requirement, and I started with tsdx and regretted it. It's way too much for an early project -- you should really add these things as you find out that you need them. In my case the main issue was I was using it in a monorepo and having duplicated tooling and watch scripts in each library was not great for memory usage nor build times nor hot reload times. (In fact, even by itself, tsdx had some really bad build times compared to compiling the code as part of a Next.js build).

In terms of monorepo, FWIW I'm now using .tsconfig project references [0], Yarn Berry workspaces, next.js externalDir experimental flag, judicious usage of `extends:`, and a shared package with common development scripts. I'm fairly happy with the setup now, but it was a huge PITA to get there, and a lot of the features only became available in the last year. But I'm relieved to be relying on officially supported TypeScript features, operating under the assumption that the TS team is incentivized to keep improving build times for this use case (which, in fact, they use in their own repo).

I've also been eyeing Rush [1] for monorepo management but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I think they are making all the right decisions. The real challenge with a monorepo, and one I haven't fully solved yet, is balancing the tradeoffs of "passive compilation" (importing from the source of sibling packages) vs. bundling each package separately. As a small team, passive compilation is somewhat okay, and tsconfig project references kind of enforce boundaries, but on a larger team it could become problematic. On the other hand, bundling each package separately is not a great dev experience when each bundler is eating 1gb of RAM and running its own hot reload process.

It would be hard to show this wasn’t genuine behaviour but a malicious attempt to infect the Linux kernel. That still doesn’t give them a pass though. Academia is full of copycat “scholars”.

This is the only football I know. That's why I was never interested in watching football as a kid and I'm still not today as an adult. I am an absolute sport enthusiast and play everything from football to basketball, skateboarding and what not but I can't watch a bunch of drama queens having a cry when the wind blew their hair the wrong direction or someone got slightly touched by another player. The sport seriously needs more Zidanes who know how to head butt if someone is making a scene.

If you compare CS-2 to a workstation with a single A100 in it, sure. But we should compare CS-2 to something that provides the same amount of compute, right? What's the ratio of compute to bandwidth in a rack full of A100 chips? What are the bottlenecks in that rack: DRAM bandwidth? I/O? Internode communication?

If we want to train GPT-3 (or WaveNet, or Resnet-50), what's more efficient: a rack of A100s or a single CS-2 box? Which one is faster, assuming the same cost and power consumption?

Right now I'd probably pick the A100 rack as the winner, but long term I'm interested in what Cerebras is doing. If you think about it, our brain is more like a wafer scale chip than a rack of GPU cards.

There is a chance that this idea is actually correct. However, in the near-term, I'm going long on popcorn as the advocates attempt to make the "making energy more expensive will actually help people of limited means who want to heat their homes" case.
In addition to the financial, the environmental strain is intense too. City living with the kind of strict lockdowns imposed was to say the least claustrophobic.

Tesla’s autopilot is very comparable to autopilot in aircraft (read a bit before downvoting). It is something you engage to take the load off the vehicle operator but does not eliminate the need for the operator.

Autopilot (both in aircraft and in the Tesla) is really good at what it does. But if you start thinking about it as anything other than something which helps reduce the vehicle operators workload, it is dangerous.

Pilots understand this and get pretty extensive training. Some Tesla owners clearly do not. Some of the blame lays with Tesla due to marketing. Perhaps these hybrid machine/ human driving systems should require training.

I've answered this question for myself: WPF. It's neither bleeding edge nor is it obsolete.

You can complain about the current state of things but I don't think there's any argument that Microsoft is doing the wrong thing here. They're iterating on their platform, making improvements, and supporting existing technology.
I agree with most commenters here that this crosses the line of ethical research, and I agree that the IRB dropped the ball on this.

However, zooming out a little, I think it's kind of useful to look at this as an example of the incentives at play for a regulatory bureaucracy. Comments bemoaning such bureaucracies are pretty common on HN (myself included!), with specific examples ranging from the huge timescale of public works construction in American cities to the FDA's slow approval of COVID vaccines. A common request is: can't these regulators be a little less conservative?

Well, this story is an example of why said regulators might avoid that -- one mistake here, and there are multiple people in this thread promising to email the UMN IRB and give them a piece of their mind. One mistake! And when one mistake gets punished with public opprobrium, it seems very rational to become conservative and reject anything close to borderline to avoid another mistake. And then we end up with the cautious bureaucracies that we like to complain about.

Now, in a nicer world, maybe those emails complaining to the IRB would be considered valid feedback for the people working there, but unfortunately it seems plausible that it's the kind of job where the only good feedback is no feedback.

A big part of the "American dream" of homeownership (for me at least) is to not have any connected walls to anybody else (no condo, no apartment, no townhouse).

Being nice is expensive, and sending bad code imposes costs on maintainers, so the sharp brevity of maintainers is efficient, and in cases where the submitter has wasted the maintainers time, the maintainer should impose a consequence by barking at them.

Sustaining the belief that every submitter is an earnest, good, and altruistic person is painfully expensive and a waste of very valuable minds. Unhinged is unhinged and that needs to be managed, but keeping up the farce that there is some imaginary universe where the submitter is not wasting your time and working the process is wrong.

I see this in architecture all the time, where people feign ignorance and appeal to this idea you are obligated to keep up the pretense that they aren't being sneaky. Competent people hold each other accountable. If you can afford civility, absolutely use it, but when people attempt to tax your civility, impose a cost. It's the difference between being civil and harmless.

They appear to have told the IRB they weren't experimenting on humans, but that doesn't make sense to me given that the reaction of the maintainers is precisely what they were looking at.

Absolutely. What's the joke regarding the two sports? Football is a gentleman's game played by hooligans while rugby is a hooligan's sport played by gentlemen. Something like that. Either way, the level of respect players have for one another and refs is awesome since it really is a violent/dangerous game. There are a few exceptions, but it's fun when refs say, "This isnt soccer, you cant get away with that here." Football/soccer players are just rich brats. FIFA and the various leagues encourage it too.
So mid-life in this study is 50 to 60, if you have kids at 35 by that age your kids are probably not affecting your sleep schedule. I coudn't find out if the study found a correlation with younger patients sleeping 6 vs. 7 hours.

Also they are at 30% higher risk of something that is already kinda unlikely for most of the population if you follow a healthy lifestyle. Most of the research points towards vascular disease being the most important indicator of heightened dementia risk on an otherwise healthy population, and this study only controlled for severe vascular disease like having had a stroke or infarction.
You're getting cause and effect backwards. New construction small homes don't exist because they aren't as profitable for developers to build not because there isn't demand for them.

I just bought and sold a house in a very hot market. The things that people are doing right now to stand out in my market were,

- Get pre-approved.

- Write a personalized letter why they should get the home.

- Offer above list price and be willing to pay above appraisal (part of your offer).

- Put your offer in right away. Most people who viewed my home put in an offer within a few hours of seeing it.

- Forgo an inspection to get a faster close date.

- Pay cash if you can.

- Buy new construction, we bought new construction and didn't have to compete with anyone. It costs a little more up front, similar to a new car I imagine, but we plan on staying >10 years if we can help it.

As long as you are financially secure I wouldn't wait for a better market. IMO it doesn't matter if the market is high or low, it only really matters if you leave the market.

See, I'm an old and crusty person because if I'm writing some internal tooling for a company and I could use C# and we're in Windows, WinForms is the obvious answer. I never liked WPF and WinForms was drag and drop and crazy easy, so I would just use it. It's not like it's actually going away, Microsoft doesn't fully deprecate anything that could be used by any of their enterprise customers and I'm sure looooots of them use WinForms.

> S&P 2021 paper did not introduce any bugs into Linux kernel.

I used to work as an auditor. We were expected to conduct our audits to neither expect nor not expect instances of impropriety to exist. However, once we had grounds to suspect malfeasance, we were "on alert", and conduct tests accordingly.

This is a good principle that could be applied here. We could bat backwards and forwards about whether the other submissions were bogus, but the presumption must now be one of guilt rather than innocence.

Personally, I would have been furious and said, in no uncertain terms, that the university keep a low profile and STFU lest I be sufficiently provoked to taking actions that lead to someone's balls being handed to me on a plate.
> Any somewhat political article is extremely left leaning.

I've seen that same argument before to argue how the Nazis, and modern neo-Nazi groups are supposedly all "left wing", their categorization on Wikipedia as right wing and far right is allegedly only the result of that very same "left leaning" bias you are claiming.

Which, as a German, is just a tad bit weird, because it wasn't Wikipedia that defined these groups as such, those results come out of the political sciences. Nazis being right-wing, and neo-Nazis having moved further into the far-right is a very established fact in Germany.

Great comment! I’ve been thinking about a tangentially related subject:

TypeScript is like a relational database (and other structural statically typed languages) of your application behavior, allowing you to query the current possible states of your data at any given point in your application code.

I’ve been thinking about this more since TypeScript got template-string generics, and folks have experimented with eg type-checking SQL strings back into application code.

This is the piece that draws me to an ORM: that it brings the “relational model” into application code, NOT the “object” part of an ORM.

Does anyone have any opinions about which language ecosystems create the most effective type-mappings between a RDBMS and application language?

Part of me also wonders if there’s a ton of time lost on mapping between languages like this when the tooling that’s really missing (afaik) is better tooling for producing, consuming, and generally interacting with SQL and db schemas as the data runs through your application pipeline.
