Build on someone else's Marketplace. Identify a niche where your product name will be the primary form of initial marketing in that marketplace. Keep costs as low as possible. Time to profitability is a function of how much you can manage costs.
Totally disagree.

Even ignoring that diversity can be a goal in and of itself, and ignoring that a lack of diversity can be a useful metric for identifying other problems, there's also plenty of reason to believe that targeting diversity directly can yield performance improvements. If you're building a product for women, you should have some women on your team. If you're building a product for the general population, you'll get better results if your team has a variety of life experiences and viewpoints.

It's the same exact reason why it's good for a CEO to have experience in the industry that they're targeting with their products, and why managers who know at least a little bit about code works tend to do a better job of managing programmers. Perspective and life experiences absolutely help with decision-making processes and can help you avoid certain pitfalls in your product.

Diversity increases your available breadth of input into decisions and planning; it's like the human version of increasing code-coverage in your QA department.

I had a friend who had a friend in journalism. For some reason, my friend’s mom was used over and over for “person on the street” or “sources say” when the source was just some general perception on a current event like Michael Jackson dying or whatever.

I used to follow this friend of friend journalist just to see the unnamed sources. It was funny because the articles frequently presented them as authoritative like “knowledgeable sources familiar with Mr Jackson say…”
Funny because I knew the mom and she just read the same material anyone else could read.

> Definition of apartheid: "a rigid former policy of segregating and economically and politically oppressing the nonwhite population"

I find this a very curious definition. Why should the skin color of the oppressed population matter? Googling it returns this dictionary entry[1]:

> (in the Republic of South Africa) a rigid former policy of segregating and economically and politically oppressing the nonwhite population.

> any system or practice that separates people according to color, ethnicity, caste, etc.

So the definition you quoted only applies in the context of South Africa, in general apartheid refers to any system or practice that separates people according to color, ethnicity, caste, etc..

In high school chemistry, I was given the option to either take the final exam, or do a project involving experimentation.

I built a potato gun and tested different fuels. It wasn't very scientifically rigorous (hard to measure how much fuel went into the firing chamber, distance measurements were sloppy, and we didn't take the weight of individual potato projectiles into account). But it was incredibly fun, and the report I produced earned me an A.

That was probably the best "scientific" experience I had in all my years of schooling including college. Having to think about all the different variables really helped me grok the scientific process. We thought up ways that we could start to control things like fuel load and projectile weight and just generally had a blast.

We (the world) is much better off to adopt a real "images with text" format which works nicely with terminals (for now this appears to be sixel and the proposal by kiTTY).

You can acknowledge that there is a social construct called "race" that some people believe is useful for predicting things about individuals without subscribing to those beliefs yourself.

E.g., some people argue that white people are unfit for certain roles because they haven't endured the sufferings of people of color which is clearly expressing a belief that (1) race is real and (2) race is useful for predicting things about individual white and non-white people. This is racism, race essentialism, etc. But I can also acknowledge that those people are more likely to treat white people (i.e., the people that they put into their "white" category) differently than nonwhite (i.e., the people they put into their "people of color" category). This is not racism or race essentialism or etc.
Perhaps I've been lucky to work at places where work did truly end at 5pm, about 90% of workdays (of course if the servers are on fire, or a customer can't log in, that necessitates after-hours work, but once it's done, it's done).
It's a work culture thing, and instant communication channels don't necessarily lead to everyone being on-call 24/7. I'm sure that existed pre-internet also ("Boss called, I need to go back into the office and finish some paperwork...")
The problem is that you seem to be assuming I like them for the opposite reason why I do, so I guess you will just need to listen for yourself.

I think they might actually be doing the opposite of what you suggest - they generate overtones that cancel out the overtones produced by the speaker itself.

I have been listening on studio monitors for years, as I prefer the sound over the typical consumer audio sound.

Sure, they won't shatter your room, and they are really only powerful enough for listening from close distance, but the thing is how the bass sounds like real bass, rather than loudspeaker bass, it sort of adds weight to other sounds, rather than being directly heard and the whole sound often almost sounds like if it wasn't coming out of speakers.
I don’t buy this since journalism has been ad supported for a long time.

Ars Technical in particular has been around for a long time and always as funded.

There’s something different now that is maybe compounded by only being ads.

I think the friction is between cost structures from a different revenue time and just constantly using short term tactics to hold onto declining revenue.

So the issue isn’t as revenue per se, but the bad business models associated with ads.
True. :) There is definitely a difference in how Amazon scales management for warehouses. Elsewhere, it's "everyone a leader".

My first true corporate experience was with big-four Deloitte. The culture there is "up or out". May sound sketchy to outsiders but it was actually a really supportive environment.
Of all the good reasons to criticize Apple, you picked the most bogus one. Congratulations, that's an achievement. :D

You severely overestimate celebrities' technical prowess -- and underestimate their naivete. They live in their own bubble of trust and laughs and fun and parties; and if somebody crafts a message that looks to be from their agent or a friend celebrity they absolutely WILL click on it and will give their data willingly.

None of us has the entire picture of course, but after knowing a few local celebrities 10+ years ago, I can definitely believe they are that gullible so as to make a spear-phishing attack successful.
This would be really nice, but the only solution I know here involves working with numbers that represent a function of p rather than p itself. And what you do depends on what you're computing. In general, you'll find lots of useful math functions that have specialized routines around zero and one, like numpy's log1p function, logaddexp, expm1, and company.

Log odds ratios are also good representations that have this kind of accuracy between zero and one. They're good when you need them. (e.g. 100:1 odds are log(100/1) and 1:100 odds are log(1/100))

Rust has it's own (Free) LLVM fork, too. If the watchOS/iOS Bitcode format were Free, they could merge that into their own LLVM instead of having to support two slightly-different compiler backends.

The GPL would legally require Apple to publish source code for all LLVM forks they make, if they accepted third-party contributions under GPL terms. It doesn't require them to upstream it anywhere, you just have to let someone else do it.

Nope. That's a misconception that's commonly used against homeschooling. There are homeschooling co-ops that organize field trips. We also associated regularly with our congregation with people of all ages that they were friends with. My 15 year old daughter's best friend was an 83 year old woman. They hung out all the time. It was amazing.

There are those examples of families who treat it like they're on a deserted island. They're doing it wrong. Thankfully, they are a very, very small minority.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is one of the use-cases lots of people've thought up for location services + AR, over the last decade-plus.

It has the following problems:

1) A bad chicken/egg critical-mass problem for adoption. (Apple, Google, and maybe Facebook are best positioned to overcome this, if they built the feature in to their OS or apps)

2) Content moderation.

3) Even if you treat it as a friends-and-family thing rather than a more broadly social experience (which solves #1 and #2 fairly well) AR on a screened device is approximately 1,000x worse to use than on the hypothetical non-dorky and practically-useful-battery-life AR glasses that every major tech company seems to expect in our nearish future (judging by their continued emphasis on AR, despite its being kind-of a shit and gimmicky interface outside some niche uses on current hardware)

I suspect 2 and 3 are why FB, Google, or Apple haven't taken on the challenge in 1, yet. I expect they will if/when 3 gets solved, and this kind of real-world commenting/tagging thing will be widespread in a hurry.

Not that much. For sure I made some mistakes, as I continue to do, but I'd stand by what I did at 17. I didn't (for example) write down plainly racist statements and then publish them on the internet. I didn't do anything comparable to that.

Sounds like a security oversight on Apple's behalf then. iCloud should have 2FA enabled by default if it's so easy to trick the subconscious user into handing over credentials. Furthermore, it's already been confirmed that iCloud had multiple exploits allowing for brute-force and injection attacks[0] at the same time that the hacks happened, so it's definitely more feasible that an unpatched, full-disclosure exploit was abused instead of a couple hundred interns all clicking on the same spam email at the same time.

Developer of aluminum-ion battery claims it charges faster than lithium-ion
Not really. New AESA radars are able to home on countermeasures, so if the F-35 decides to use ECM or jamming, then all the better, the missile will be able to discriminate when it gets close.

The F-35 is going to be going at around 300m/s, and the time for the missile to get there from 60km away is going to be around 100s. You should be able to integrate position to get a +- 10% estimate of velocity with our 300m error, then. In reality a lot of the error isn't stochastic either so you can get a lower velocity error.

Again you don't need the radar to guide a missile. You just need to get the missile close enough for it to pick up the F-35.

If you read an article that said that the VHF radars can't guide the missiles, they are definitely right. But the Russians and Chinese don't plan on that. Their missiles now have on-board guidance, they just need to get close enough for their own guidance systems to pick up the target. That means that instead of needing 10m of accuracy, which I agree with those articles the VHF radars cannot do, you only need to get within a kilometer.

Kids do not write laws or have political agendas. In an ideal world, skin color would be an afterthought. But that is not the world we live in. I grew up as a white person in a 99%+ mexican/hispanic area. I grew up thinking the same. I didn't think much of people's race, but other people did. I was treated differently because I was white. It took me a while to realize that I wasn't seeing the world from the minorities point of view because I wasn't a minority. If you try to ignore race completely, you ignore the issues minorities are facing.
MLs would also need tell the difference between disinformation and real information. This is incredibly hard to do, since disinformation looks like real information unless your understanding of the world is broad and specific. And then eventually you end up with the same problem as humans, which is that if the world context leaves out trustworthy information needed to discriminate real information from faulty information, then the ML will also fall prey to the hack. And of course, for truly nefarious misinformation, it is just consistent enough with trustworthy information to appear trustworthy.

This is no easy slice.

>A racial construct has been used to shape every facet of our society and we can't make right those wrongs with out maintaining an awareness and understanding of that construct.

This is a dangerously myopic view of the development of this country and more importantly it ignores progress over the last few decades.

The fact that blacks have not achieved representational parity or wealth equity yet does not mean that that the path of race blindness was not working. By all metrics it was working, and there must be room to discuss the internal cultural issues within the black community that account for the remaining lack of progress.

Instead by silencing any such criticism we are falsely blaming whites as a demographic for cultural change that is beyond their control, and artificially forcing transfer of power and wealth from said demographic in a misguided attempt to correct past wrongs, in a manner that is fundamentally at odds with the principles of meritocracy that are critical to a functioning society. Hiring minorities for the color of their skin is no better than hiring whites for the color of their skin.

The combination of a fundamentally racist theory/policy and vicious cancellation of anyone who publicly criticizes the movement is going to lead to severe backlash. It's immoral at its core. You can't have your cake and eat it too - either racism is acceptable and we have the freedom to discuss when and where it is acceptable, or racism is unacceptable. Wordplay with euphemisms which disguise the racist nature of CRT inspired policies is intellectually dishonest and not sustainable.
