I like your YouTube videos in general and think this content is a great benefit to the community.

I wouldn’t take the few negative comments personally - I’ve seen many GAN architectures that heavily overfit (including my own bobross pix2pix) get a lot of praise, while ‘less violating’ models (like yours) get more skepticism. Skepticism isn’t bad! But I’d wager in your case it may be because you’re a YouTuber, and other ml YouTubers are notorious for ripping off content (eg Siraj).

Not really related to this, but I’d personally love to see the difference in training times it would take an RL agent to adequately learn to drive a car in gta versus adequately flying a helicopter.
So, in general I definitely agree.

But it’s also important to recognize that it’s difficult to know what you don’t know.

My first year in college I was placed into “math in the real world”—the class for kids that can’t even cut it in a 100-level math course.

In of the first lessons the professor asked us how we might purchase something we don’t have money for. No exaggeration: I was the only person that suggested saving up for the item.

Every single person in that class was competent enough to understand basic financial literacy. But somehow they made it 18-20 years before learning about savings, compound interest, etc.

It gets more difficult, too. I bet most people don’t know that overdrawing and other “bad” behavior can lead to you getting blackballed in Chex, making it really difficult to open bank accounts elsewhere. How do you even search for that?

I’ve had to stop and remind people that when you transfer money from a tax-advantaged retirement account you need to make sure to transfer it directly—withdrawing it into your bank account can cause a taxable event.

Stuff like that is easy to look up. People should look it up. But how do you know you need to look it up?
Great comparison of a content farm with a major news company in HK
Hyundai are huge in industrial technology across the board. Mining, construction. They have a robotics division. This isn't about some small car company which sells small volumes in the USA. They're a Chaebol. This is a $150b plus conglomerate (or not: they restructured)

I think Vice have been lazy here. It's not hard to know what a major mining and construction and technology company sees in robotics. Robot self-driving trucks are taking up in the opencast mining world, deep mining tech would exploit things. Even if they decide bipedalism or quadripedalism is stupid they'll have assets and IPR outcomes.
Did anybody actually give them real info? To us it was just a game of filling out made up details, and recalling enough to survive their quizzing to win the prize. That's probably impossible with online verification now, though.
It's overly complex, uses esoteric and inconsistent commands, and is generally unusable by mere mortals -- presenting a significant barrier to entry for the wrong types of people.

I meant Twitter the company. Twitter has the data for who was shown a tweet.

Twitter doesn’t have a dislike but they have signals like amount of time spent, skipped over, etc. I wish they would add a frown option.

If I tell a joke to a dinner table and get 6 frowns and 1 laughing person that means the joke isn’t very good. In the Twitter ecosystem, that’s a great joke.

Your method seems to just involve knowing the standard rules that mail services use to provided tracking information, and removing those or reverse engineering them.

What happens when one of the biggest email services, Apple, starts removing those tracking IDs? Marketing just rolls over and dies?

It will be pretty trivial to keep changing up their url parameter system, or even to have unique urls that don't include query parameters at all, like the MailChimp system but without the simple Base64 encoding. Sure, it would be a bit of a pain to engineer, but needs must.

It seems this would be better to make a browser extension, which can keep up with changes, and, honestly, would probably be small enough that marketers wouldn't bother trying to adapt to it.
We are back in the office and I love it. I can talk to my colleagues again, have in person social time instead of awkwardly staring at someone’s head looking at my chest. I’m very glad to be going back to the office now.
The talk wasn't part of the main conference but it was part of a workshop, which was just one out of tons of workshops.

I meant generally advise, like to tell a whole forum of strangers to do it.

And even advising a Turk to buy dollars would depend heavily on the Turk’s particular situation and would likely mean not buying dollars as an investment but as a hedge against other things.
This seems like an interesting visualization. This is "neat," but that was the goal - it was designed to be neat, and so it is neat. That's quite antithetical to the general idea of the emergent properties of things like Conway's Game of Life.

I see! I understand the obsessiveness, I believe, but to me WFH (which I dislike) seems more of a way of "checking out/focusing on the rest of my life" than to truly indulge in work. I find it interesting that you have a similar understanding of things but a very different point of view.
It doesn't refill your gas tank though, you just use the momentum, friction and heating up of compressed air of your engine to slow down, wasting all the energy of going downhill into heat.

EVs on the other hand get a partial refund for the energy they spent going uphill in the first place.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but you give an "out of 200 million" for the Soviet Union, but not for the case of Germany, Britain, and France. The denominator is a crucial figure.

Another difference is the death rate in terms of the proportion of men 18-60. Losing that population is more catastrophic than if the deaths are more evenly distributed.

For example, in France after WW1 it became normal for women to marry old men and crippled men. Men who survived WW1 and later WW2 in Germany had their pick of wives, and women tended to not marry at all (WW1) and married foreigners (WW2).

I.e. both rate of deaths and the demographics of the deaths matter a great deal.

The problem is when many people you want to socialize are inside the garden and the walls don't let you talk to them, and the garden keeper actively works to shape peoples perceptions of outside the walls as scary and confusing, so you just get blank states when you try to suggest ways to talk to people who can't or won't go inside.
If company is providing a service instead of selling products then reverse engineering is much much harder or not possible at all.

I think a good approach to learning systems programming would be to find a piece of hardware, read through its datasheet, and attempt to implement its driver. Or program a microcontroller in rust. Or try to get "hello world" to display on a PC operate without an OS.

There are a lot of neat, and not-too-intimidating things that will give you a good appreciation of the techniques used in systems programming you don't see in other areas. Eg reading technical documentation (datasheets, Reference Manuals etc), reading and writing registers, familiarizing yourself with memory layout, and communications protocols. Writing a HAL to see how you can abstract over register writes to make high-level code.

In other words, I agree, and don't think this post's parent was gatekeeping; it's the definition I had assumed as well.

The title was previously "US Navy set off a 40k-pound explosive on its new supercarrier".

They did not, in fact, destroy a brand new supercarrier by setting off a 40k-pound explosive on it :-)
The conspiratorial premise is an external locus of control. Everything else is world building.
I'll concur on the drag and drop programming. I started with VB in the 90s while doing tech support and then made way to C and then Java. I figured Java was short-lived when I took a job during v 1.1.7. It was slow and clunky. There were numerous articles about it doing OO the wrong way (not that it made any difference to me).

I though VB would grow and mature with building UIs and backing with more robust code, but it just kind of petered out.

If anything iOS storyboards attempted to bring that idea back.

I did not see infrastructure as code being a thing.
The co-working workspace has security implications.

Also I think the current setup is working to a large extent because everyone is remote and playing field is even. It will be somewhat complicated after half the team is on-site and other half is not.

I'm not by any means an expert in this, but I'm relatively confident that patients undergoing such procedures aren't going in drug-free. Something like diazepam at least. My mother had fully awake surgery on her eyes, and that's pretty much what they did. She was awake, but they gave her something that made her completely ambivalent about the procedure. Zero anxiety.
I was going to mention my waterproof camera (old Nikon Coolpix) which has GPS, but I double-checked first, and you're right... same sensor size as the iPhone. And the software processing in the phone is miles ahead, even in 2017 it was a wash.

But it is lovely to import the photos from it into the photos app and just have them slide in right next to the phone photos, and on the map view too.
You don’t exactly put aircraft carriers in shallow water, so this blast is unlikely to have done much to any appreciable amount of ocean life.
How many other SCM tools have you used? In my experience git gets a fair deal of hate, but everyone switched over to it because 1) the alternatives are worse and 2) github revolutionized the way that we write and share software.

Before git, the most popular SCM tool was SVN, which required you to talk to a central server for everything you do (single point of failure, slower, no offline). I've used mercurial before too, and its approach to branching is pretty painful.

I've heard of some enterprise companies needing to use git alternatives for very specific needs or scalability issues, but outside of that IMO the only meaningful downside to git is that there's a learning curve to using it. But it's not much of one - once you understand the mental model and what the basic commands are doing, you can get by just fine. The average person doesn't need to know about git rerere or octopus merging.

(also, commits are effectively immutable for public projects, which sucks for trans engineers who change their name)
>It's not really about leverage or power. It's more of a strategic setting where the winning move is either to be 100% truthful (if you're innocent - and even JCS acknowledges this!) or not to play.

It seems to be the opposite. This JCS video shows 100% non-guilty people being 100% truthful, and their truthful statements are regularly seen as further evidence of their criminality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BemHqUqcpI8

Whether you're completely guilty, partly guilty, or completely non-guilty, the safest thing to do is to say absolutely nothing.

>It can however be strategically beneficial to the innocent if done lightly and with proper foreknowledge, because if you can precisely and vigorously call the interrogator's BS about what evidence they do or do not have, this sets you apart from someone who's just making stuff up as they go along and cannot possibly be able to do this.

I really don't think this is true at all. Again, I think it's the complete opposite. I think it's total BS that trying to call BS about evidence would somehow help you in any way. Someone making stuff up as they go along can definitely very possibly do what you say, especially if they're relatively intelligent. And someone being 100% truthful may not be able to do this, if they think the police can't lie, and/or if they know nothing about forensics.

In any of the four scenarios (guilty and try to call them out; not guilty and try to call them out; guilty and don't try to call them out; not guilty and don't try to call them out), you're not going to help your case. The only thing that might come out of it is that you hurt your case. Either nothing happens in the best case, or you hurt yourself in the worst case. The expected value is negative.

It's helpful to know about these techniques, but you shouldn't be taking any action in response to them if you see them. You just have to wait for your lawyer.

Police are not trying to help you. They're looking for things to confirm your guilt. I would think the only thing you could say that might help you is if you have a provable alibi or some other evidence that exonerates you, but in that case the correct action is still always to say "I won't talk without a lawyer". You can give the evidence to your lawyer, who'll then evaluate it, and if they believe it's helpful they can present it to the police and prosecutor and try to get the charges dropped.

With other sorts of APIs you are given the choice between say the v1 version or the v2 version, with both endpoints being available at the same time. However, when it comes to command line programs for all practical purposes you can only have a single version installed at a time. And it of course doesn't help that essentially none of the existing scripts even check the versions of the software they run.
Ouch, lots of the VW fans I've known were die hard due in part to the ergonomics and feel of the manual transmission. Something about a cable I think.

But that's exactly where the inflated importance part comes in.

Does OP really believe that no one in Apple's engineering department has ever asked "should we do anything about tracking IDs in email links?" Or that no one at Apple is able to reverse-engineer MailChimp links?
Let's just call "cancelling" what it is - mob justice - and its executors what they are - mobs and mob justice apologists.

When Git was taking over from SVN, the main benefit I remember reading about was the much faster/lighter-weight branching. IIRC in SVN making a branch makes a complete copy of all the files. Since then it's benefited from being the standard everyone (kinda) knows despite its sharp edges.
