Having worked at Amazon, I know the employees are fully aware of blackout periods. There is no way to claim plausible deniability there.

It is easier for clueless household members to get a hold of the earnings statement or unknowingly trade AMZN during blackout periods, so in some cases I can see how an honest mistake could happen.

However, this guy traded 1.5M 11 times during blackout periods ahead of earning statements. There is just no way to claim ignorance there. He had to have known that it's illegal.

I can't even begin to imagine the hubris or the stupidity. If they put Martha Stewart in prison for insider trading, they'll obviously put the husband of an Amazon employee without blinking. What was he thinking?
Well for starters, his wife was forbidden to trade AMZN during the dates in question. When they find an account owned by her spouse, and possibly jointly, doing such trades it's not hard to figure it out.

Also, had he done this once or twice, they might not have found it but 11 quarters in a row is going to get noticed eventually.
I 100% believe the U.S.G. would use the Uighur situation as a reason for war, despite other more morally lacking reasons (power). I also 100% believe that the CCP would do something to the Uighur's worth starting a war over. The CCP is a military dictatorship, the people running the show aren't elected officials and the people, Uighur and otherwise aren't free to speak their minds or learn except for what the party allows.

This setup has never resulted in a good outcome long term. Ever. Let's not be naive, but instead reflect on the preconditions necessary for the abuse of power and recognize the CCP has met all of them in this situation.

Chinese vaccine (SinoVac, CoronaVac) uses an inactivated whole SARS-CoV-2 virus.

https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/covid-19-how-do-in...

"...
In an inactivated vaccine, the pathogen is killed or modified in such a way that it is unable to replicate. It cannot cause disease and is, therefore, suitable for those with a compromised immune system.

The inactivation step usually involves heat, radiation, or chemicals to destroy the pathogen’s genetic material, which stops it from replicating.

Inactivated vaccines can trigger a strong immune reaction, but it is usually not as strong as the reaction that live attenuated vaccines can produce. Due to this, a person may need booster shots to ensure ongoing protection.

The COVID-19 vaccines that Sinovac, Sinopharm, and Bharat Biotech have developed are inactivated vaccines.

I struggle to see how such a deal would make sense for anyone. Ok, maybe SiFive founders if they want a pay day now rather than a bigger pay day later on.

Intel doesn't need to buy SiFive to get a license to make RISC-V chips. Anyone is allowed to. Intel doesn't need SiFive technology, unless they're planning to get into microcontrollers and IoT, and even then they can (and already do) simply license cores from SiFive. SiFive's most sophisticated shipping cores are around original Pentium in complexity, with Pentium MMX and Pentium Pro level things announced but not yet shipping. That's 25 years behind Intel. Intel could do an Apple M1-style RISC-V very easily if they want to, but they don't need to buy SiFive to do it -- it wouldn't even make it easier, particularly.

Does it make sense for SiFive or RISC-V? It's hard to see it. Too much risk of getting buried inside the behemoth. It's not even as if Intel can threaten to compete with them and squash them -- SiFive's battle for the foreseeable future is with ARM, not x86, and not an M1-level RISC-V (if Intel wants to make one)

I agree. For anything sophisticated you have to use the Kubernetes Python client combined with the KFP DSL. The compiled Argo Workflow spec can become such a mess that you quickly run into a size limitations -- especially if you choose to deploy a Python function directly (which then uses Kaniko to build the containers in cluster and run them via Argo Workflows). At that point I would rather use Argo directly. And KFP is generally quite behind in Argo Workflow versions.

And it's not like KFP makes CI/CD (MLOps) any easier than Argo Workflows itself.
Thanks for your question!

My original comment is all about how you present your self in the daily standup.

You get 10 mins in the stand up. What do you say?

"I spent 30 minutes trying to fix a trivial thing that will get resolved as soon. As I get off the call" - bad idea

"Work is going slower than expected, but I'm making progress. Make sure leaders know this is REALLY hard" - better idea

"I spent all day making mistakes, but I eventually got something better than planned" - This is good

Here are some tips:
ASK FOR HELP. If it is a real problem, don't wait until stand up to ask for help.

Don't focus on the problems. If you talk about how you can't access email, it sounds like you spent 8 hours waiting for the email to come back (which, if true, I need to know about it much sooner)

Help me brag about you. I REALLY need to tell leaders that the team is rocking. Let me know when you: solve a hard problem, get good results, teach someone else something good, learned something from someone else. You AND I benefit if you do well.
Suppose I think you're putting the lives of others at risk by going outside without having meditated a few thousand hours. All the same arguments apply: getting your meditation card is your path to freedom, be responsible and protect others by doing your meditation, get your free brain scan today, etc.

Or, if you want to be selfish, that's OK -- just stay in your house forever. Keep paying for the infrastructure of the city, of course, but you won't be able to enter any kind of event without having done your meditation, and of course the un-meditated will have to sit separately from the good people.

Sound good? Or is this notion of placing new responsibilities onto others without a vote a power you'd like to keep for yourself, and not for others to wield the same way?
Specifically, the post I was replying to was lamenting a future where EVs all try to be like Tesla, putting nearly 100% of the instrumentation and controls into a single large touchscreen.

This is unique to Tesla, AFAIK. It worked out very well, it is a brilliant cost-saving measure that can also be marketed as 'elegant'. Have to hand it to Musk on that one. The R&D required to build a normal car interior is expensive, so skipping most of it was a phenomenal move.

So anyway, my point is that there are lots of non-Tesla EV choices, and by-and-large almost all of them are just normal cars with normal dashboards and normal controls, just with electric power instead of gasoline. A few manufacturers seem to be trying to ape Tesla's design on their EVs, but personally I expect a reversion to the mean. Too many people could care less about driving a touchscreen.

Here we are again with the force and control. Shutting down “misinformation” means you must be able to define what “misinformation” is. We’ve made mistakes on this many times historically and we still have groups of people running around and saying “shut up and listen”. nothing will get accomplished like this.

The definition of a EULA agreement is a legal contract that is executed by clicking a button. They often contain liability releases. What software license doesn’t?

> A EULA specifies in detail the rights and restrictions which apply to the use of the software.

> Many EULAs assert extensive liability limitations. Most commonly, an EULA will attempt to hold harmless the software licensor in the event that the software causes damage to the user's computer or data, but some software also proposes limitations on whether the licensor can be held liable for damage that arises through improper use of the software (for example, incorrectly using tax preparation software and incurring penalties as a result).

I really think the FDA approval system is backwards, especially for a terminal disease like Alzheimer's that we have no good treatment for. In my view we should encourage people to try whatever with a minimum of regulation and approval and then approve the best options for Medicare.

I imagine companies pitching (and discounting) any idea they can come up with and patients signing up for the best deals. As soon as someone starts to show something promising they get tax payer money and become locked in as the cure.

I just don't see any reason not to go balls to the wall on experimentation when you are treating the dying elderly. My grandfather died with some type of dementia. If I were in charge of his care I would have taken any experimental treatment over just letting him die with medical care that didn't have a chance of saving him. Better to take 1% chance of cure and 99% death than 100% chance of death.

Either they are illegally mailing me spam from some list that they purchased, or they hid their "please don't send me bullshit" opt out when I signed up for their services, because I would never ask to receive marketing or product updates.

Potentially, yes. This wasn’t an analogy! I meant it literally. People not wearing seatbelts can injure or kill others in collisions. Their bodies can be projected into others’ and even a waif of a person can be deadly with enough force.

IMO, Ruby Bundler was the first language / ecosystem to really get dependencies right. AFAIK, they were the first to have a lockfile locking the version of each dependency and a Gemfile with flexible version specification for dependencies, and a tool to handle installing the right version of everything and making sure you run in the context of your specified gems every time, no matter what else is installed on the machine.

Rust Cargo does about as well, probably the best for a compiled language. NPM could be about as good too - it almost feels like they deserve a point off for the ridiculously huge number of tiny packages required to do anything, though that isn't really the dependency manager's fault.
So frequently do I see the hottest new ECMAScript feature presented by one these folks on Twitter, and I'm thinking how out of the box, older browsers won't support it, and most junior developers don't have a great grasp on polyfills or transpilers. So the first thing I'm seeing is limitations in how I might use it in a production environment (or the small but non-zero work to update my tooling to properly support ES5), but most of these folks don't seem to develop in environments requiring older browser support, but in either case, the nuance always seems missed. It's a caricature of the depth that we sometimes need to dig into.

> If you receive invalid data return an error saying that... please for the love of someone's god, do not raise an exception. You have no idea what the concerns of the caller are, so just return an error tuple.

> No, the exception returned will likely have no meaning to the client and will more than likely confuse them or your. You will still have to write error handling logic. You still have to format the error. You still have to log or report the error... Now you are doing it in multiple places because you're raising and likely still having to handle data validation issues.

If it's invalid in the sense of indicating a bug in the caller (e.g. by violating your function's preconditions), raising an exception is the right thing to do. You don't understand the problem, and probably the only way it can be fixed is by the developer fixing it. Precisely because you have no idea what the concerns of the caller are, each caller needs to do its own validation and error handling logic.

If it's a case of "invalid" input but valid code (e.g. a function that's designed for parsing user input), then that's the case where doing validation yourself and returning an error is better.

(This kind of distinction is where it's really helpful to have a type system, so you can use separate types for raw input and parsed data that's expected to be valid).

I agree that pay stability is new, but that doesn’t mean they were in a contracting relationship. For most of recorded history, most people were engaged in some form of subsistence food production. Many were enslaved. Generally speaking, neither of those economic models are that close to “contracting.”

Tenant farming gets closer (although not really). Itinerant labor probably the closest, but I don’t think they made up much of the population in societies I know about. Skilled craftsman could also count, although they look more like a generalized small business than a “contractor” as at least I think about it.
> As a general rule, you are responsible for your health and safety, nobody else is.

This is a stupid proposal for a rule. I call it a proposal, because even a cursory study of the evidence shows it is not a description of general practice, and doesn't reflect the laws that most societies have enacted for themselves.

If it were the actual rule, then you would never be able to eat any food. Most people have the decency to stay home when they're sick, unless they fear for their security by doing so, out of consideration for other people's health. Most people take reasonable measures when making and storing food, even in the absence of laws creating some obligation, because they have consideration for the health of those who will eat it.
