It's a first step I guess. At least if you can get the classification to work with controlled data collection you have reasonable evidence that the approach can work.

If all other parameters area randomized between case and control, this is also fine. I'd guess you can also add illumination and other artifacts to the datasets to make the training robust to this.

But ultimately in the extreme case (like wanting to submit images from a point and shoot camera) I suspect you'll have a hard time building a system that's robust to that... or robust enough to be used in a diagnostic context...

I personally don't think I'd be comfortable working without a standard configuration used by the radiologists and a controlled protocol.
> being priced out of an education.

Being priced out of a credential you mean. If you could not afford to pay your student loans back but were stuck in indentured servitude as a result of signing the paperwork, you were priced out anyway, you just didn't know it and you had no way out. Now you do. Also you can learn basically anything online for free now. You don't pay for an education, you pay for a degree.

This will absolutely prevent the ridiculous cost of college from going up and it might go down. I expected several universities to downsize significantly as a result of this, and lots of reform in tenure, and less jobs will be able to demand credentials that their applicants don't actually need and degrees will be more fairly compensated. All in all this will be an amazing normalizing force for the job market, higher education and people in general.
> You think AI is so primitive that we can't make any headway into the biggest problem we currently have?

More or less. It's almost certain if "AI" makes any headway at all, it will fall far short of the hype.

> That seems like a fairly fringe view. Especially on a problem that has well defined data like medical imaging.

I doubt it.
You're missing the point if you think it's about people being forced. It's more like people being set up to fail or being in an environment that increases the exposure to crime, drugs and where dropping out isn't taken as seriously.

Why can't the government increase minimum wages? If those jobs are likely to get automated away then that's going to happen either way At least let them make decent wages _while_ they have a job.
This is a terrible take. There is a tonne of freedom to do and say as one wishes in Australia. The guns are not absent, they are licensed and backed by background checks and regular license renewals that are tied to criminal history checks, police databases, and mental health proceedings.
Health care is largely free, education is excellent, almost every town has perfectly drinkable water (almost), and there's plenty of food to go around. Our passport works, our wages are competitive, and out anti corruption , pro employment, pro consu.er rights laws are some of the best in the world.

I'd say you should review your take on the situation.
Well, this post is in the context of an e2e encrypted DB, but it's subject to the same constraints: https://medium.com/@ZeroDB_/scalable-full-text-search-over-e...

If you understand btrees you understand the hardest part already :)

Basically, you need to design a search index that examines the fewest DB pages in order to find the result. The Lucene scoring method stores a mapping of term -> document[] sorted in relevance order. The main idea is that you can examine only the first n documents for each term in the search query in order to find the most relevant search results. Picking n is sort of tricky, but if your index is stored in this way it's possible to fulfill a large % of queries efficiently without downloading the whole index.

Here's a little Python implementation of what I mean by a "user space implementation". Note that it's a toy but it performs pretty well on some demo sklearn data sets: https://gist.github.com/petehunt/724eeb77189332db101ad7b0db8...

Strife is character building, and can lead to a more experienced, well-rounded person, if you're lucky. Of course, it can go the other way too.
Not with the number of vaccines the federal government has been purchasing, or with the speed they've been rolling them out, or with the length of time its taken to approve any local manufacturing.
Neither do most CEOs. What they do is best guess which fully evaluated option for (d)investment they like better based on gut feel. Most business-oriented decisions are basically stack ranking the options presented.
Do you still find that holds for somewhat ideomatic rust?

I have made the same experience running tutorials and simple example code, but as soon as I took on anything more intricate, I got thrown right back into "GCC compiling a C++ template" territory.

Infrastructure can only help so much, you have to be in a bike friendly community for it to work really well from home to your destination. Of course on the sparodic separated bike lanes it goes well, but then you get to the last few miles and you're dropped into the traffic at the mercy of people who haven't seen a bicycle until now, and you are definitely in their space not the other way around.

Because people take time to change, I think the two bandaids for the social problem are expanding separated bike lanes and then dropping people into pedestrian/cycle shared streets, not the roads.

I know I know, you didn't buy the Ultegra gear set just to sit on the big ring dodging foot traffic, but a cycling city will need to cater to the majority of commuters not the speed machines. Most potential cycle commuters are just everyday people wanting to meander into work and around the city centers.
I would use it if they implemented the content blocking API on iOS.

Maybe? I've always found the ideas on algorithmic bias lacking formalization. I'm not really sure what data or algorithmic bias really means. I think "data bias" means non-representative data and "algorithm bias" indicates classifier accuracy differing between two differing groups, but in such a definition algorithm bias can exist without data bias.

Example: I might have a representative set of faces, of which perhaps 1% are wearing sunglasses. There's no particular reason to believe that a face detection classifier optimized over this set performs as well over sunglass wearing faces as those without, given the low frequency of sunglasses. (I might get a better ROC if I only consider faces with eyes visible)

In a sense the data isn't biased, but there is an algorithm bias between the groups.
If your profile is set to private, then what's the difference?
That's depressingly accurate. US infrastructure is so bad.I went to Austin a month ago and there are a lot of highways outside of the main city. Biking along those roadways sounds insane.
Maybe not news to anyone who has been around for a while, but I’ve been pitched by a lot of naive entrepreneurs who think doing a startup is as simple as asking investors for money and then using that money to pay engineers to build your product.

It’s very common for graduates of our local MBA school who often form teams of 3-6 co-founders who want to split the equity among themselves, take C-level titles, and then hope they can find some technical people to get the work done. I try to have some honest discussions with those who will listen to advice, but many don’t want to hear anything that doesn’t make their journey sound easy
Have you ever been to these countries? They are loaded with Internet cafes and that type of arrangement can easily pay the US monthly price (and that’s assuming SpaceX won’t offer lower prices in lower demand countries).
Sure, but where did the word "atom" come from?
> The stupid is winning.

Calling someone stupid just because they do not share your blind trust in a bunch of people is kind of malicious.
Absolutely. This is why it would be better to chose the best option without the management.

I regularly consult management about technical decisions and the always chose something else than the best option. Based on feelings, opinions and kickback rates.
Power, as in the ability to alter others lives, is the “problem” IMO. Wealth is only a problem in that it’s intrinsically linked to power.

Really I think it’s a balancing act. Since we can’t just get rid of the concept of power, we try to regulate its use. This is pretty difficult.

Even if you "know" it, you don't really know it until it happens to you.

I'm running a small startup (5 months old tomorrow) and everything is "fine" - I have funding (part of it signed, other parts seems very likely to be signed in the immediate future), a team, development is going well - but there are constant obstacles and setbacks and it's a lot harder to keep my cool/spirits than as an employee.

Rationally I know whatever happens I'll be ok (at worst I'll have to get a well paying job as a developer somewhere else) but emotionally it's different, especially when you have employees depending on a salary you're paying.

One thing I found helps a lot is to talk to other entrepreneurs who have been where you are now & I'm very fortunate to have several people like that in my professional network.
I am a Firefox user on all my devices and will be so until the Mozilla Foundation stands, but my gut feeling tells me that Firefox won't bounce back from its downfall.

I still wish for it to become the browser with most users.
With Google's relentless Chrome dickbars for anyone daring to use one of their services without it, I don't see how any other browser stands a chance.
It's honestly a pity. Firefox is it perfect but the Internet is becoming worse because of chrome. Google is able to fast track any non standard Web tech and the hordes follow. Soon after, that become the standard. I don't want to cheer for a broken browser, but only Safari is able to stop this madness now.

Also, Firefox on the Desktop is really good and still let's you do so much more than chrome clones. But it suffers specially when using Google websites.
Is it a big secret that m1 macs don’t work with external monitors?? The problem has been getting worse with each new forced update.

Using my monitor via HDMI and apples 100$ dongle it constantly turns off randomly and will not come back on without unplug and plug back in.

Everything else is great but after like 5 updates that claim to fix the issue but still having issues maybe apple should make some notification about the problem so people don’t buy this if they have serious work they need to get done.

> and Snowden took a shortcut

Well, speaking as an American citizen, I want unconstitutional surveillance against me to stop now, not 10 years from now.

So the idea that I should be upset that Snowden took a shortcut rather than letting my rights get trampled while he struggled impossibly with bureaucracy -- I just have a hard time figuring out why that would be good for the American people.

I understand that the government would prefer that only official channels are considered legitimate. That's the whole reason why the Espionage Act exists, that's why whistleblowers aren't allowed to bring up public interest during trial. And I get that motivation, I understand why the government wants complete control over how it can and can't be held accountable for violating my trust and violating my rights.

But I don't understand why I should be on the government's side in making it harder to hold them accountable and harder for whistleblowers to let me know when my rights are being violated. Getting mad about taking a shortcut is very strange to me, I'm not sure how to process that sentiment.

Every personal weakness is exposed. Entrepreneurship requires you to be a relatively “complete” person to be successful. In my estimation, I, like most people had to learn how to be that person on the fly. That is not easy. You realize just how much you don’t know when faced with decisions and problems that you alone are required to address. It is a rough learning experience.

If you don’t get ground up in that process, you come out the other side a different and much more capable person. It almost gives you superpowers, even in large corporate structures, because few people know what you know about how to make things happen. For me, I came out the other side able to land in almost any organization and have an immediate impact at scale no matter how large those organizations were. It was a powerful education though I did not understand it at the time.

It does't help that the Google maps cycling directions are often woefully bad. I just put in my old (2 mile, downtown) Austin commute and the entirety of the suggested route was on streets I would never ride on for fear of my own safety, and my personal risk tolerance for these types of things is pretty high. There's protected bike line on most of 3rd street that can get you across the entirety of downtown and Google maps just ignores it.
Until it becomes faster, cheaper, or more convenient to cycle than drive for most cases, people will continue driving.
I would be really interested in seeing data around this!

Getting people to believe error messages is surprisingly hard.

The + and - operators do exactly that with pointer operands, but nobody is claiming that they're behaving like functions.

In C++ most operators could end up invoking an actual, user-defined function at runtime. But, again, nobody is claiming that they therefore behave like functions.

I get the logic--if you squint really hard you can analogize sizeof to a function. It just doesn't work, as evidenced by his own example. C isn't LISP. It's C. It has a unique grammar with distinct classes of constructs. sizeof is a unary operator, parses exactly like every other unary operator (tokenization conflict with identifiers notwithstanding), which is quite different from how function calls are parsed, particularly wrt parentheses. sizeof has some unique characteristics, but every operator has unique characteristics; that's why they're operators, as opposed to some functional languages that try to subsume everything into function-like syntax.
My startup (CxO Industries) aims to reduce the negatives. A lot of the downsides is because Entrepreneurs don't have much support.
FF CPU usage is terrible compared to Safari on OSX, they need to put more effort to make it as efficient as Safari. May be increased sales of ARM based Macbooks will help them.

In an EV fire, you have an initial fire that burns hot and releases lots of fumes (a large part from all the other crap in the car combusting), and then you have a very long period where you have to dump water on the battery to keep the internal oxidation under control by cooling it. The later part is much less dangerous for the fire fighters.

Chrome is already the standard. Firefox usually works, but more and more often nowadays I encounter a glitchy or poorly performing page, which I switch to Chrome to use properly.

I use Firefox to not be part of the Chrome monopoly, not because it's actually a fundamentally better browser.
Didn't know that!

One striking similarly Elixir has to lisp style languages is the macro system. You have quoted and unquoted expressions just like lisp.

And like lisp most of Elixir, down to the low level stuff like if statements, modules, and so on, is built up from a few primitives.

Here are the primitives that the Elixir language is built from:

When you're a CEO, you're also the face of the company. His "personal contributions" were to support banning of same sex marriage, and it was just 5 years earlier. That's just unacceptable, even in 2014. It really showed how politics work inside companies like Mozilla.

But you're not alone. That year lots of users dropped Firefox.

Hey, thank you for the support!

I completely understand when users go with something more simple like a CLI or MonitorControl. I do the same myself when I don’t really need the features of a complex app.

"About three-fourths of people infected in a Massachusetts Covid-19 outbreak were fully vaccinated, according to new data published Friday by the CDC.

The new data, published in the U.S. agency’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, also found that fully vaccinated people who get infected carry as much of the virus in their nose as unvaccinated people.

And another point related to education. Couple days ago a White House official stated :"We're dealing with an evolving virus. There is no precedent, and there is no playbook". Note, it isn't the White House of the previous buffoon, it is supposedly educated current White House. No wonder that being led by the people like this the current pandemic response isn't that much better than the ones of the previous centuries.
