TCG's uops are modelled after real ones. It is close enough.
Or maybe they understand them perfectly and have come across enough obtuse code using reduce to not want it as part of the language.
I did, carefully. It's just as pointless.
I wonder if I am getting downvoted by the FB oversight board :)
I am by no means an expert, and this by no means is indicative of a video compression FPGA, but I've been looking at .GZIP and .PNG accelerators and it seems that while they deliver incredible speed, it is done so at the worst compression ratio you can fit in the compression spec. Equivalent to .GZIP setting 2, or maybe equivalent to a "super fast" or "ultra fast" video preset. It is important to note that these are lossless algorithms though. Still, it may not make sense to utilize if your application is bandwidth sensitive. If 4k Netflix doubled it's bitrate by switching to FPGA solutions, that would probably be too high of a cost, even for a 20x speedup. At least until high quality internet speeds become more universal of course.
This sort of things was not uncommon in Victorian times in the UK (and I'm sure everywhere else). This is partly what led to all the health and safety regulations we have.

Many things in China are similar to Victorian Britain: Industrialisation and economic boom, infrastructure boom, can-do attitude even if it breaks a few things along the way, selling whatever to make a profit (In the UK it was not uncommon to cut flour with plaster to make cheaper bread and cause malnutrition in poor children, for example)
Twitter has been doing well since its Trump ban. Facebook probably benefits as well.

Theory: it is more profitable to increase engagement of average users, who want nothing to do with the decline of the working class and the Republican party, than it is to amplify a bunch of extremists (still profitable) who turn others off from the platform.
I think besides dang and other moderators who keep the site somewhat cleaned up through brute force, the fact that HN discourages flashy features and headache-inducing levels of information density and imagery helps to keep a core audience present, unlike most other platforms that start out simple then quickly pile on feature after feature that make the original audience depart.
In their case though, their Books, Company (and lesser extent Rails), and Personal Brand are all intertwined.
I don’t like encumbering our communications with the crowd madness of the age.

You could make your same argument for “latinx”. Who cares if people on NPR say it? It’s harmless and inclusive! Well, that’s where we disagree.

Once again, attacking arguments that you disagree with by asserting they come from a place of bad character isn’t a discussion. It also seems like you risk giving yourself too much credit by seeing your views as some sort of paragon of virtues like empathy, thus anyone who disagrees must be against your self-appointed virtues.
Texas stole land from New Mexico by setting the border wrong
This is not about misunderstanding. The author argues that heavy map/filter/reduce does not fit with the general style of Go programs. As a heavy Go user, I absolutely agree.

There is nothing preventing people from writing their own reduce() in their own utilities package, and I expect a thriving ecosystem of "even-more-functional-constructs" packages to spring up as soon as generics hit stable.

The discussion in this proposal is not about this. It's only and entirely about what the stdlib should provide, and that is much more a question of practical and idiomatic usage than it is about one's understanding of a theoretical CS syllabus.
It would be far better if Facebook just said: “he tried to undermine democracy in the home country of our employees, so we banned him because we don’t want that”. This charade just leaves them open to people calling them hypocrites in the future.

Isn't the difference here that one was a deliberate design decision and one was a de-orbit burn failure? While the risks posed by both are significant (though the chinese rocket is much, much larger) there was no intent by SpaceX that this outcome was "good enough". That does not seem to be true here. They should probably both face sanctions, but the sanction for deliberate design choices should be much more severe than those for failures.
Interesting, nice tool but i wonder if it has any issues by enabling/disabling internet to specific apps cuz it seems that there are some at least in reveiws. Nonetheless, good stuff
I really admire the way people in leadership positions in the West came together to dash Trump’s chances of re-election. From the much needed tighter controls on social media, and the steadfast refusal to hand his campaign any cynical wins by reporting on Biden scandals, to the constant trickle of damaging leaks from executive branch offices and the selective prosecution of his allies, even the careful timing of the vaccine announcements, or the ability to get 700 CEOs and activists on a Zoom call to game out (‘fortify’) the election, it was a truly awesome display of civic cohesion. Biden didn’t even need to campaign, in fact he didn’t even have a platform - his major policies were wisely left to be unveiled after the election. This is the playbook that needs to be adopted going forward if democracy is to have any chance of survival.
To be honest, it's hard to judge this just by reading this article. They only way to have own word on this matter would be to take part in the company meetings.

It's not about Chinese people - it's communism that essentially promotes such behaviour. You'll find this in every communist country.

edit: I see a rain of downvotes, oh well. I get that there is a generation who loves communist happy clappy principles on the surface, but never had their family members straight up murdered nor sent to gulags never to be seen again. Communism doesn't take human nature into account and objective always ends up being killing anyone who doesn't fit.

Pretty stacked deck of certain types. Having experts independent of facebook only works if you provide a fair diversity. If everyone drinks the same cool-aid the process for selecting these experts becomes the overriding issue.

How were these people selected? Do we have a matrix on their ideology? Is that an acceptable balance?

Are we able to see public video (or transcripts) of the discussion that lead to this decision, or are we only given the decision? Not that I would expect any actual transparency from Facebook...
Citing Wikipedia aside, the WHO exists in large part to get large, competing nations to cooperate on matters of public health. This often involves placating these nations.

You should take some time to read up on the many respected and qualified institutions who've done a much deeper dive on this "conspiracy theory" than the WHO ever intended to.

I can think of two ways of doing this:

1. When I go to share a link, automatically trace it and remove all tracking so I get the final URL without any tracking parameters attached.

2. When I am sent a link with tracking parameters as a part of it, or a shortened link, send it to a remote server which will follow the links until it finds the final destination and removes tracking parameters, then send it back to me.

Both approaches have downsides. The first is nice for when I send a link to a friend but not when I get a link in an email from a company. This happens to me all the time and since I use NextDNS to block trackers I often can’t even get to the final website because of the various trackers I would have to go through to get to it which are blocked at the DNS level. I am still trying to figure out a good solution to this.

The second has the obvious privacy problem: who is watching the watchers?
Developing and Deploying a Complete Project Using FastAPI, Docker, and AWS
I doubt that’s the case - if you come from Twitter, you sharing the same link with 100 people probably skews their data. I just don’t think it’s that big of a problem yet for marketers to ask their devs to remove utm parameters after they’re logged.

Why do you think that, and what do you mean by "agricultural source"?
" I'm completely surprised actually. The bigger news is that they didn't let him back on because he's worth so much money to the social media companies."

Facebook doesn't need Trump. They're going to be making billions regardless.

They also have to deal with the current US government, where Trump and his supporters' fortunes are on the wane, and a lot of powerful people (of whom Trump has made enemies) are questioning Facebook and other social media platforms for giving Trump a megaphone.

Of course, there are also Trump supporters who want the opposite, but politically they just don't matter as much right now.

In the current political climate, the surprise would have been their letting him back on.
I think it should be possible to have two mandatory requirements for all car designs: the steering wheel and the brake pedal override everything else, and that has to be hard-wired in a way impossible to bypass without modifying the hardware.

No good for self-driving cars though.
For anyone more curious about the oversight board, zuck did a series of podcasts a while ago where he talks about different things concerning Facebook direction. One of them was about his ideas and goals for the oversight board, specifically. It seems like a good idea but I don't trust him to do anything at all in good faith. I got the impression it's Facebook version of shoveling money to Mozilla so you have something to distract regulators with. https://about.fb.com/news/2019/06/mark-challenge-jenny-marti...

I’m not denying that there are a lot of difficult concepts and million dollar words in advanced functional programming but I will say that I personally took years to understand what was going on with OOP when I was learning programming. Functions made sense, classes and objects and inheritance and subtype polymorphism did not.
Trinity desktop release R14.0.10 (KDE 3.5 fork)
A filter that displays your current speed has no inherent danger and does not encourage anything in and of itself. Idiots that decide to drive over 100mph in a car not designed for high speeds, on public roads, and with no proper training just to capture a cool number on a screen are the ones who should be put in jail.

Should we jail the person that invented the speedometer as well?
Why would Facebook, as a private entity, be required to provide such? Airlines aren’t required to provide similar when they ban a customer from flying, nor corporations when they ban a patron from their stores (for whatever reason).
This should be a Netflix problem?

I'm kind of confused how this is against the law? I can understand tax evasion component and maybe a little wire fraud. (Ignoring the tax evasion issue for a second)

They instilled confidence and the ability to award contracts to outside firms for this officer of the company. If company officer hired bad firms eventually he should have been fired for poor performance? Regardless how much kick back they provide him. It sounds like the contract were between two private citizens/entities. Why is the Federal Government doing internal investigation for Netflix?

Other than tax fraud, the only victim was Netflix. Not the American public?

Not every article is written from a globalist perspective. Clearly 'pirates' would mean something different for so many regions and parts of history. The Med. was full of pirates for quite some time before and after antiquity, surely there were famous names as well.

I suggest that in English, the most popular application of 'Pirate' would be those European Ships in the New World in the lat 1600's early 1700's before the British forced some 'order'.

If the author is intent to talk about Pirates in the context of that well-known era, they're probably not inclined to worry that much about 'Google Searches', they're talking about famous individuals from that epoch.

Network vs nation-state update: the network is a charade, as the messages passing over it are filtered and 'boosted', distorting information beyond any humanly recognizable form.

It turns out that the people who moderate the network wield unimaginable power.

Please stop complaining about downvotes.

ronjouch explains how it's not really possible to stop this form of tracking below. In order to unmask the URL, you need to pretty much visit the URL, which registers the tracking data, so even if you, as a user, gets a stripped URL that's safe to use, you will still have effectively clicked the link.
> Carrie Goldberg, a victims' rights lawyer who specializes in online abuse, brought a similar product liability case against the dating app Grindr, but a federal appeals court, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, rejected it on Section 230 grounds.

> To see a different federal appeals court go the opposite way could create an opening for more cases to challenge tech companies over flawed platform design leading to foreseeable harms, she said.

Article author seems to misunderstand section 230. Section 230 protects against liability for 3rd party content, such as the fake Grindr profile from that case.

I've never used Snapchat, but my understanding is filters are 1st party content: created by Snapchat themselves. That is why this case doesn't get 230 protection.

Edit: commenters below have informed me there are 3rd party filters but the speedometer one is 1st party.
It seemed like you were looking for transparency that they aren’t obligated or required by law or regulation to provide, hence my comparisons.

Did you even read my comment? I ended with "Guys need to treat themselves with dignity and put themselves together."

I don't think that includes paying for sex.

Also to your comment "Different people want different things. Prostitutes want money." That's not what prostitutes want, it's what they need from a practical point of view. When you're just trying to get by, you do things you don't want to do in order to get what you need. Now the higher end ones that make big money probably don't need it, but I don't claim to know what their motivations are.

"The problem we are discussing is that some people aren't desirable for some reason they don't know how to do something about."

That we can agree on. My point with the crude comment is to alert them to that fact. Most people don't want to change and will reject the idea that they need to. You gotta smack em with the idea pretty hard sometimes.
Google search is definitely not dying since for many people what you can find on google is _the internet_. But I personally no longer find google search as useful as I used to find it before. I use plain google mostly to get quick answers for programming problems.

Anything else I search for gets a quick "site:<authoritative_website>" to filter out the cruft. For random subjective topics "site:reddit.com".

A common misunderstanding is that if a bunch of investors pool their stocks, they’ll earn more compounding interest on the larger pooled principal than they would individually, or conversely that a stock should not be split or it will earn less interest.

The continuously compounding exponential return formula is
P(t) = P0 e^rt

Note that only time enters the argument of the exponent, not the principal. So the returns are invariant to divisions of the principal (ignoring human behavior effects).

Yes this is the type of implementation that inspired the idea. Now with cheap and tiny microcontrollers each neuron can be self contained and handle it’s own weights without need for external memory or components. The GreenArray chip mentioned by another poster seems to fit this though each core is only directly connected to 4 others you could work around that limitation by having a layer of routing cores that pass messages from one neuron layer to the next.
I have a self-written set of userscripts that does this, as well as unsetting javascript link rewrites and including bitly link expansion and Amazon URL decluttering. I would love to be able to use it on Firefox for Android again, but I don't see them enabling e.g. Tampermonkey any time soon.

If any shortlink uses bitly as a backend, you can expand it yourself by copying the link and adding a "+" at the end, bringing you to the bitly properties page for that link.
