No I think he’s saying it’s beyond rescue because first it went from a “good” country like Norway, to a “worse” country like Sweden, to an “even worse” country like Poland, to an “even more Wiesel country like China, and racist crap like this is popular on this website.
Look around, you're surrounded by ubiquitous embedded systems these days.
I think it’s entirely possible that they simply don’t have the necessary scale. As far as I can tell the only remaining competitors are Intel and Tesla given that both MobileEye and Tesla have actively accumulating real world data.
As long as they are still growing, it's mainly a matter of redirecting the growth. Only a stagnant city is "too poor to change"; everything else is just cowardly politics looking for excuses.

Per https://pedestrianobservations.com/2019/09/18/cars-and-train... we have a lot of bullshit compromise, when the ugly truth is both cars and non-cars are positive feedback loops for which there is no reconciliation.

But this is also an opportunity, provided the government has guts. Do what Barcelona did, and overnight "guerilla urbanism" block roads. Bikeshare, including some cargo wagons to signal a commitment to more people other than single yuppies is also good, and is so much cheaper than subways it might as well be considered tactical urbanism. Do congestion pricing. Tax parking lots.

When property values adjust as everyone tries to get at the high foot traffic, high job density hot area, you are winning.

Finally, we need a national carbon tax / quotas. And as opposed to trying to ration gas to people we should just give them a carbon dividend. That will also suck people out of the suburbs like turning on the electromagnets!
Somewhere there is a container full of Amazon Basics Butt Plugs waiting to spill forth its rubbery contents upon unsuspecting American beaches.
Mrrweelll... to be fair, the kind of mass-produced cheese most people recognise as "cheese" these days is not that great either. And most commercial cheese basically tastes the same, no matter what it says it is. That's because it's made with the same industriallly produced lyophilised lactic acid bacteria cultures. The job of those cultures is to give cheese its tastes and flavours and since everyone buys the same brands from the same few makers, everybody's cheese tastes the same.

What's worse, outside the EU you can find cheese with names like "feta", "parmesan", "mozzarella", "camembert" etc, that are nothing like the real deal (pet peeve: feta sold in the US is made with cow's milk). So most people who eat cheeses with these names outside the EU are eating substitutes of very inferior quality. From there, to eating plant-based "cheese" and feeling like you eat the real deal it's not such a big distance.
People could and did hold onto them. I should know; I have a small collection of defunct notes. But they were in negligible amounts, because a currency isn't intrinsically valuable. What's the market cap of the Italian Lira? It was a meaningless question both before and after the Euro cutover.
That seems like an odd course setup for a DS. I'm not a DS but kind of learn about it as a hobby, but I think if you cut the course down to just the first 2 topics people would have a better foundation.

All the DB related stuff seems like a bonus, ML should be easy to pick up if you have good LinAlg and stats knowledge and Python you can pick up along the way.

I also agree on your last point. I don't understand how someone would be able to remember a fraction of this knowledge when you're changing topics so often.
What's weird about limit how long it takes to load a page or limiting the resources your badly written scripts take? It's a SaaS platform, they can't just let your crappy work run loose and impact performance for everyone.

Except where mandated by state law, gig workers do not receive the gig description until after it is accepted. There is no transparency about details such as price or duration when they must make the decision to take it or leave it. Failure to accept a gig will result in penalization that significantly reduces your ability to receive more offers in the future.
Note that this means 77 requests per second, which is not impressive at all.

> In fact, many things at Lambda School are working very well, and we believe we're on the path to proving this model successful and sustainable.

While that may be true (doubt it), I work at a startup with about 150 employees and if we lost 32% of our employees I'd be polishing my CV and wondering when I'll be cut loose. That's not to mention all the negative stories coming out of Lambda School.
Depends on how fast your connection is. For DSL, anything will do. I picked up a TP-Link Archer C50 V4 for $22 and it's fast enough to shape and route a 12/2 DSL link while sweating a bit.

The sub model matters. Some manufacturers like TP-link change the hardware without updating model name. You can see the version number of hardware on the serial.

There's a crapton of routers supported. There's a supported device list and a bunch of Reddit/forum threads on the OpenWrt forums about best devices. The best device is the cheapest one you can get on eBay or clearance that works well with OpenWrt and can handle your network speed with SQM. Beware of devices with working OpenWrt but broken Wifi or broken 5ghz. This is by far the most common broken driver in otherwise working OpenWrt devices.

In general, MIPS and other weird architectures are the slowest, old ARM like v6 are faster, newer ARM pretty fast, and X86 is fastest. See list of SoC's https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/hardware/soc

Dual+ core variants of these architectures will handle more speed too. I would estimate single core MIPS is good for 15 megabits SQM, single core "old" ARM maybe 30. Newer ARM chips like Cortex 8, maybe 70 single core. For more cores just multiply those numbers.

Above ~300 megabits an x86 PC made with used parts will be cheapest. I have heard higher end Raspberry Pi are quite fast routers as well. For these options you will need a "dumb" AP for WiFi and just plug all the traffic through the wired shaping router with dual NIC's right between the modem and rest of your network. One NIC for LAN other for WAN side.

TLDR: If you don't want to fuck with anything, have $250, and don't have more than 200 megabits connection, get an R7800.

Other options can have things like crazy flashing process or broken stuff or unofficial builds or split AP/router or just take more research to find.

R7800 is wildly popular, well supported, fast-ish, has a lot of flash and ram, and somewhat easy to flash (you still to setup tftp on a Linux box to do it).

See my other comment about enabling per-ip fairness, it's an "advanced" option for piece of CAKE SQM script but it's easy to setup
The difference is the advertising ID can be disabled or reset by the user, and Apple has started blocking apps that use fingerprinting SDKs during app review. (https://9to5mac.com/2021/04/01/app-store-now-rejecting-apps-...)

Without app review there would be no practical way for end users to avoid fingerprinting.

> That's a strange argument though.

Only if you don't consider consent. A user opting-in and enabling the advertising ID is very different from a bunch of apps using third-party SDKs to fingerprint their device without asking.
Chinese EV startup Nio is coming to Europe
I'm building a prototype water level sensor for my 30,000 litre tanks. Ultrasonic sensor to find the water level and an embedded web server to surface it (in my case it's near enough to my house to use my home Wifi - I'm publishing it as a Prometheus scrape target, but could easily be a website). When it's a bit more polished I will ask my neighbours if they're interested (we're all on tank water). I don't plan to make a profit but it would expand my skillset.
There's a difference between what the parent means by "processing" and simply cooking.

Agreed about tabs and split windows. I think they take over the window manager's job, and do it poorly.

About the menu, it is nice, but not unique. Windows' Explorer, for example, shows it when dragging with the right mouse button. Options include copying, moving, zipping and actions from any registered shell handlers.

That said, I think KDE is still the best desktop environment across all the operating systems I've tried.

Let me repeat myself: I think this is good news.

One way or another, the world population will not grow indefinitely. That's a fact. But the how, that's uncertain.

That's an argument for "I don't care about this", not an argument for "this abstraction is sensible".
Why doesn't it scale? That's basically how humans do it. We learn general-case rules and then we learn how to handle specific situations specifically. You can observe that just by driving through an unfamiliar city with a local. They'll feed you a stream of tricks for optimizing the drive.
> I find I'm constantly saying "wait go back what did the output of that command say" or "wait that error message doesn't make any sense based on what we changed last time, why is it that error?"

Along those same lines, I like to use the phrase "sanity check" a lot. It's meant to imply nothing should be wrong yet but we can't rule anything out, so let's check every single step and make sure they match our expectations.

For me it seems to work to get the other person to explain what they're expecting as they go through the steps (forcing them into rubber-duck debugging with me as the duck), and many times has caused them to find something they were just glossing over before without me even having to point it out.
It's not a general purpose computer purely because the company decides what purposes are allowed and what purposes aren't, via store policy. Just like Sony decides what purposes are allowed and not allowed for the Playstation. Both products are computers, but it's hard to argue that they are "general purpose" computers.

Contrast that with computers where there is no authority figure exercising editorial control. Those are, by definition, general purpose.
> this could not have happened using blockchain

Why couldn't this happen on blockchain? It really assumes everyone is using that same blockchain network, which is not a guarantee. Were the stock certificates released on Ethereum? On WAX? Are you sure you checked all of the networks?
> Can someone explain how you can train Data Scientists in 6 months?

Doesn't it ring alarm bells that society attempts to herd 100% of students through 4 year programs? That sounds far from optimal, no?

It seems highly likely to me that if you get someone who excels on the steep parts of learning curves, 6 months studying the right things would be just as effective (if not more) than 4 years doing mostly busy work.

> What jobs do these grads walk into?

I think they walk into entry level jobs. I know I much prefer working with people that love to live on steep learning curve slopes over those who prefer to go at the pace of the system.

> remember what a dot product or a t-test is from week 1?

I have been in data science for many years and most of the terms I was taught college (like t test) never come up. Maybe once or twice a year I have to spend 60 seconds to refresh on dot product algo.

Scenes from Off-World
My grandfather used to go and salvage (loot?) smashed up ships on the Yorkshire coast after storms as a kid in the early 20th century.

They had places they’d go after bad weather, knowing that’s where wrecks ended up.
Recovery mechanisms can be implemented as smart contracts. For example, you can set up your wallet so that with Key-A can be used to transfer funds/NFTs freely, but Key-B can only transfer to a specific recovery account. Transfers from the recovery account can either be made with Key-B after a certain amount of time has passed, or immediately with Key-A. You keep Key-A, your family gets Key-B. If something happens to you they can get the assets out after a set time using Key-B. If someone tries to abuse Key-B to take the assets while you're still around you just use Key-A to transfer everything to a different account before the waiting period expires.
Its enough that a certain percentage could survive in "fake it till you make it" long enough to gain enough experience to do well.

But you have to be a pretty determined self-starter.
I thought "right-sizing" was a fake term made up to parody the already euphemistic "downsizing". I can't believe people are actually using it.
It is more than that and it is what Data Scientists spend a significant amount of time doing. Real world data is extremely messy and a lot of time is often spent understanding what exactly the data is, changing it from wide to long, deciding how to deal with missing values etc.

This highly cited paper is a good introduction to the subject:

An NFT without any legal framework doesn't mean anything.

Some NFT platforms have legal licenses that e.g. state that the holder of the NFT gets some specific (possibly exclusive) rights to the connected artwork.

re "copyright rights", depending on what you mean by that note that with a traditional painting being sold the buyer also does not get to do whatever they want with the image, since the original copyright remains with the author. (e.g. you can't take a painting you bought and sell prints of it)
Remember to divide by fully-vaccinated persons, not shots administered. It's not the shots that experience the blood clotting.

Also, bear in mind that adverse event reporting has been clocked (in pretty much every study) at under-reporting adverse reactions anywhere from a handful of times to hundreds of times (even for serious or fatal reactions).[0]

Finally, after you've accounted for those trifling caveats, you've now arrived at an approximation of the odds for a princely one adverse effect, that happened to be apparently causal enough to be readily discovered, and also accurately reported enough to be identified almost immediately.

There could be many others of course, complicated by genetics and unforeseen reactions with other medications or conditions, along with that not insignificant variable of time. (Ordinarily, for new substances injected intravenously, a generous several years is afforded to that one.)

You also don't know if there is a large demographic out there who share both a reluctance to sign up for medical trials, along with a propensity to exhibit an as-yet undetected adverse reaction. (Quite a reasonable proposition, if you think about it. Don't we always find things in the last place we look?)

And all this for a disease most people below average life-expectancy have little risk of dying from, even if they catch it and undergo no treatment, and for which safe, high-efficacy preventative measures and treatments already exist.[1]

And this justifies slandering another unrelated human how? It might explain the more aggressive jump to an assumption of malice, you are correct, but it sure as hell doesn't justify arbitrary negative actions especially towards another honest human being resulting from such a leap. That's either Greg's fault or Kangjie's fault or some combination but certainly not Aditya's fault and they don't deserve to be treated as sub-human because of simple proximity.

That type of reality is not natural and it's not human and it's not the one I live in.

Be pissed at the stupid research paper all you want. It doesn't justify treating some tertiary human like utter shit.

And for the record nobody is trying to "cancel" Greg or the kernel here. The project is great and Greg is probably a super chill dude on most occasions. But people aren't perfect and fuck up. You can act rashly under stress and later be wrong. That's understandable and that is human. The whole point is how you respond in light of new information. That's the test of character.

We don't need to sit here and sweep Greg's BS under the rug because he's a kernel celebrity. I honestly think some form of apology would go a long way to rectifying the slander, and cool down the whole thing and most importantly, might be enough to make Aditya feel welcome again in the community. Greg was wrong, his behavior rash, and the example should not be emulated by others in our community. Period.

That's pretty much my belief: efforts to avoid COVID also avoid the flu. Viral interference, theoretically, is part of that picture, but does not fully explain the observed data and has not, to my knowledge been tested itself: references to the phenomena as an explanation for flu decreases are based on research for other viruses. Given the HN community frequently criticizes research or reporting on research for overstating it's claims, I am surprised that so many people here have latched on to an extrapolation from research not directly related to COVID.

It seems far simpler, in the Occam's Razor sense, to begin with the idea that staying away from people makes it harder to get sick from other people.

Unfortunately, COVID restrictions and social distancing have become so politicized that many resist the idea that staying away from people reduces the chance of getting the flu from them, because the implication is that those measures might also have been effective in reducing COVID cases. This contradicts a political point of view and therefore some would like to dismiss it out if hand.

For example I've notice that many of those who believe precautions violated their personal liberty want to diminish the effectiveness of those precautions, which isn't necessary from a logical point of view. It is not logically inconsistent to believe these precautions violated civil liberties even if they were highly effective. It just requires a person to believe that many deaths were a reasonable price to pay.

5,200 metric tons over the whole planet is about 10 micrograms per square meter on average (assuming the distribution is even).

Looking for a way to compare this number to something I could relate to, I found that "an average grain of sand weighs approximately 50 micrograms". Of course this is not an evenly distributed ultra-fine powder with one grain of meteorite every 5 square meters, but it gives some idea of the surface you'd need to cover to find a decent-sized chunk.

The article mentions Antartica as a good place to find meteorites, and there is a great scene in Werner Herzog's recent movie Fireball (about meteorites) where a team walking on an ice sheet in Antartica finds a large rock just resting on the ice with absolutely nothing else around for miles and miles. They are easy to spot on the ice and can remain undisturbed for a long time, so this is a good way to find sizable meteorites.

What if you could buy individual cigarettes instead of a pack of 20? I feel like 20 is the exact amount you need to smoke to get hooked. If you could go buy like 1 or 2 so that you could enjoy a drink and social smoke with a friend, I feel like the rest of the pack would not be sitting around your house tempting you. Like why the fuck is it illegal for me to buy just 1 cigarette?! Why is it that I need to buy a pack of 20?
In non-covid times I'm not nearly this precautious and am super lucky to basically never get sick. I'd be careful of drawing any meaningful conclusions based on just anecdotal experiences.

Funny that you should make a leap from gay to sex and bodily functions. I’m pretty sure that being gay is not just about sex.

What about dating, relationships, marriage, and having a family? These things are commonly discussed at work. Fifty or sixty years ago being known to be in a gay relationship could be very professionally damaging.

In one workplace of mine was because the office was built deliberately with glass walls, so any random visitor would see everyone working.

So HR wanted the tables looking always pristine and organized, shockingly the team that made the company most of their money, made a cool castle using tictac boxes, and HR during a performance review gave that particular team a smaller raise than planned, and told them it was about of the "objects in the table looking unprofessional", when they asked if it was the castle, HR comfirmed yes, it was the castle, and they would get further punishments and maybe even refused promotions if they didn't put the castle in the trash.

EDIT: I wasn't part of that team. Only thing I left on my table was books.
