> To me this just sounds like more of the same stuff our societies keep pushing: that all the problems are ones of individual responsibility, not systemic flaws. You're depressed because there's something wrong with you, not the world you live in, so fix yourself instead of trying to make the world better.

You've misinterpreted what I meant. I'm not only applying this to depressed people, but to everybody. In order to address problems, you need to start with yourself, by first understanding the problems and their causes. You can't address the problems blind.

Many people's idea of "make the world better," at some point, involves having the State do something more than it was previously doing. They're shooting themselves in the foot, because the problem is the State itself. You can't fix the State by growing it. The State must shrink. People have an unjustified trust in the State. It has been programmed into them through school and work, and it is difficult to overcome. In fact, if you confront them about it, they will aggressively defend the State using pre-programmed responses (ie, the roads).

So to make the world better, you need to get out of the Statist mindset, and start thinking as an individual. Treat the State as your enemy. It's a violent criminal gang which supports its operations via aggression and extortion. Try not paying taxes and you'll find out it's true nature.

One thing you might find is that there is quite an overlap between those who are depressed and those who are outwardly atheist, and conversely, relatively low rates of depression among the religious. Wonder why that is?

Latency is a bitch. So remote hands from earth is most likely a no-go, for this reason alone.

And if you bring astronauts close, then I guess that some EVAs in existing suits starts looking appealing vs developing those remote hands.
> we didn't make any more money the longer someone spent on that product. There was no advertising model associated with it--it is a per-seat hosted solution.

Are you sure that time spent on product does not affect sales? E. g. is it possible that if people don't spend time with product, they will renew the subscription next year?

> So I never could figure out why our marketing team was all about engagement other than they kept hearing that word said about other digital products and, so, naturally it applies to ours as well and we must do what everyone else is doing!

Perhaps it is the issue of the marketing department of that organization is that their bonuses are not tied to any performance metrics.

In proper organizations (like Google) marketing director get paid if their marketing efforts give the company more revenue than the company spends on marketing, and fired otherwise.
Wouldn't you want to only stop a deploy if the commit introduced the vulnerability (i.e. the deploy changed the dependency tree).

From my experience most audit flags happen because a new vulnerability is discovered, which means stopping a deploy doesn't actually do anything helpful.
Yeah pretty sure it’s that bc k8s 100% supports multi-az on every major cloud provider out of the box. It also supports federation via kubefed but it needs a separate control plane in each region.

In theory nothing should be stopping you from deploying your etcd/master nodes in different regions but you’d probably need to tweak cloud resource provider to handle that and if one of regions is partitioned away from quorum those master become unavailable
Presumably if you have a VPN your exit will appear to be the same place, or some small number of places, all the time. So again, a connection and authentication attempt from a different IP would be a signal to be concerned about.

There's one big issue with QC currently. There is no mathematical demonstration that QC is scalable. All the speed-ups need some form of error correction to scale the way digital computation has. All hardware advances are just increases in computational fidelity so far to allow more useful qubits. Shor has an error correction algorithm for a single qubit, and there have been improvements to that, but nothing general enough to show that QC can even scale like digital computers can.
It's not an orbit, per se, but... it will go around the Earth once per year.
Nothing about your post confined the discussion to "similar" orbits; you were in fact responding to a parent describing a need for these to be precisely matched with a negation. While you're correct that there are orbital changes that are cheap, there are many that are not as well, and your statement without that qualification seemed likely to mislead.

I wasn't assuming bad faith on your part; I merely believed that your response could be confusing. You might consider that guideline as well.

The L2 point is unstable with a period of 23 days? I believe, so the JWT needs a course correct burn to stay positioned correctly (called station keeping).

It does have thrusters - a ring of 16 hydrazine "burning" units that can produce thrust on 3 axis.

The fact that the L2 point is unstable and that thrusters are required puts a lifetime on the telescope - I think NASA plans for a minimum of 5 1/2 years and are hoping to get up to 10. That's entirely reliant on the fuel supply.

The use of thrusters does impact the sensors the telescope uses. NASA et al schedule usable telescope time around burns, and general attitude shifts/correction. The telescope uses a bunch of gyroscopes/flywheels to point itself in the proper direction, during maneuvers like that the sensors aren't operable.

Yeah. We are working on it. No one knows much about COVID long haul. It varies a lot person to person, they still don’t understand the underlying mechanisms. It’s triage. It sucks. Don’t get sick.
Opposition to online surveillance always makes me wonder why nobody has attempted to create adversarial browsers or plug-ins.

I'm not aware of how difficult it would be technically, but wouldn't a good solution to be simply throw troves of noise at Google Amazon and Facebook to drown out the actual signal?

For example, how valuable would online advertising even be if 20% of all users were continously clicking through the ads and opening the landing pages in a virtual browser that the user never even sees?

What about opening every search result at random and simply closing the page again after a few seconds?

Is there some reason this kind of idea is infeasible or illegal?
Yes, surely. Most of the cost was in R&D and in the mirror manufacturing. They've been designing and manufacturing it for 20 years. Per-unit costs would go down. Take the mirror, it's made of segments, the facility used to produce those segments certainly would benefit from scaling up production. They'd get better at fabbing them over time, increasing yields, reducing costs.

What NASA is doing is building the equivalent of a $10 billion fab to produce one chip. Space telescopes could be continually produced on a schedule, and retired on a schedule, with constant improvement.

Look at RS-25 engines vs Raptor engines in terms of costs to produce one.
I am not disputing that SRAM still has its place, but in "bits sold", I would be surprised if there's even 1 bit of SRAM sold for every 100 bits of DRAM sold.

By the way, regarding these algorithm studies:

It's important to do them correctly to prevent bad studies, not (just) to get valid information.

Taking cost vs. benefit into account, I would default to "no". This one in particular seems like a "neat little feature", but "neat" does not cut it if it threatens to make legislation against surveillance-based advertising less effective.

I'm not sure many customers will miss it, if they really notice. Yes it can be a bit helpful, but many other things in the world would be "a bit helpful" and yet are nowhere near justifying their cost and effect (e.g. we stopped using radioactive chemicals in substantial amounts for everyday products very, very quickly).
Has anyone published studies on hospital capacity vs. mortality rate during covid? I tried to find that at the beginning but couldn't find anything.

I've always suspected claims that overcapacity hospitals drastically increasing the mortality rate are not supported by data. Obviously if more people have covid, more people will die from covid, but normalized to the number of people that had the disease.
All of what you describe in terms of data driven entity composition is possible without a true ECS framework. That is what I was referring to and more or less what Unreal or Unity (base, not dots) offer.

ECS is one of the better examples of something that sounds good on paper but in practice, and crucially in production, doesn’t provide the sort of benefits that outweigh the friction it imposes.

There seems to be a myopia online around things like ECS, data oriented programming generally, writing games in C (as opposed to that horrible high level monstrosity C++…), optimization, etc. Those are all fine things in and of themselves (though I’ve never understood the opposition to C++ as anything other than nostalgia), but they are often discussed without being ground in the considerations of building a game. If you want to build a tech demo, great! However, the needs of building a game with hundreds of people, most of whom aren’t engineers, and to a quality/production level that even “simple” things become complicated, demand other things take precedence. I lead a team that facilitates a creative project, not to satisfy my technical desire to have optimal cache or thread utilization in every piece of code. The right tool is the one that gets you closer to the creative goal, and for gameplay code most of the time it probably looks like what Epic or Unity are shipping with their entity frameworks.

The 1 year cliff never really made sense...

It effectively gave the company a discount on employees who stayed only 364 days - or to look at it another way, a 'trial period' of 1 year where the pay was substantially less.
Bytes, words, etc. can also be stored and manipulated in the CPU, in which case 2-complement, rotates, shifts, etc. do have a directionality about them.

Certain bit-sliced microcode architectures can also impose a certain directionality for the bits.

Finally, serial communications and storage impose directionality upon the bit stream. (Anyone remember writing to magnetic tape?)

Those inflation statistics have no bearing on my experienced expenditures over the course of my life and where I intend to spend money in the future.

If I took all my expenses over my adult life of 15 years and calculated the price change between 15 years ago and when I purchased them, the total increase in prices eclipses the official nationwide statistics.

So I assume healthcare costs will continue at above official inflation (especially as the proportion of young to old people decreases, which means less supply of labor in the face of increasing demand). And similar movements in the land and other labor I would be interested in.

Also, social security retirement age was 65, and it was updated to 67 for those born in 1960 or later. It would be prudent to expect more increases in future years. I can easily see 70 being the new age at which you get “full” social security benefits.

> but is not a reflection on how retirement is intended to work in the US.

It does not matter what the intentions are. At the end of the day, it is productivity from the younger groups that allows for the benefits to be realized by older groups. As the younger group gets fewer and fewer, and the older group gets bigger and bigger, the supply of productivity from the younger groups decreases and the demand for it increases.

The only way that works out is if fewer people actually get to realize those benefits, which means you want to be able to pay for it (with cash and/or political power).

It’s worthwhile to note the impact that few people have, but I don’t see how calling out demographics has any impact on YouTube video recommendations as a design pattern. Are we to believe a team of elderly Pacific Islander females wouldn’t make such choices, when the high level business goal is to retain people’s attention for as long as possible?

The incentives and rewards are provided by the market in the form of capital returns on clicks and viewership… globally across all demographics.

Hilarious. We shouldn't trust rat/mouse studies, but it's typically because the mice are way LESS complicated than humans. I would expect complicated behavior in mice to be treated as a lower bound for the complexity in humans. (but what do i know, i'm just a monkey.)
I think these sister comments are missing the point that contracts in general lead to consequences - that's what OP means by 'the only thing that matters are contracts', as in you can't trust their promise unless they actually sign a contract that says they won't do <x>. This has nothing to do with the EULA.
These instructions only work if the CPU is in a particular, unusual state ("Red Unlocked"); even then, they require a value to be written to a MSR, which is a privileged operation. It's highly unlikely that there is any way to activate this functionality from userspace. Indeed, it's not clear that it's possible to activate without physical intervention (e.g. JTAG access).

> Are you sure that time spent on product does not affect sales?

It may have, but not dramatically. The product wasn't what we were known for. Customers came to us for other services that we were known for (and, I should add, this company is very good at what they do) and this digital product sold as a sort-of upsell.

no way - x86 has no instruction alignment requirements, so the same bytes could be an immediate in some innocuous instruction. Also the same bytes can be run two ways in x86 and this is sometimes used. Plus, code can be created dynamically on almost all platforms except iOS.

> GAN's are a conceptual advance of generative models (i.e. models that can generate more, similar data).

This is something I've long had confusion with, coming from a probabilistic perspective.

How does a GAN model the joint probability of the data? My understanding was that was what a generative model does. There doesn't seem to be a clear probabilistic interpretation of a GAN whatsoever.
I totally agree with the above, and have commented on it many times before, but note the 90 day standard is because that is the maximum amount of time allowed for ISOs by the IRS. To allow for conversion after that time (e.g. 5-10 years seems to be what a lot of people are pushing for), the ISOs convert into non-qualified options. Still worth it in my opinion. Even better would be for the IRS to change the law (not sure if it's a law or a reg), because with companies staying private so much longer it's a different world.

150k dead in the entirety of the small nation of Czechia. Yikes, that's a lot. I would not use the modifier "only" to describe that death toll. That's 1.4% of the nation's population. For context, that's about 43% of the total WW2 deaths of that nation done in a fraction of the time. I hope the "costs within budget" was worth that.
Yes, the first is a literal cost, you lose something you used to be able to use.

It should be possible to see if a given "secure" binary makes use of a given microcode instruction. If that is the case, it could be possible to use udbgrd/udbgwr to modify the microcode instruction to do something else, e.g. to store some register data in the URAM or the SRAM. By doing this you should be able to "spy" the data the "secure" binary is processing.
