I wonder where you are from, your attitude would not fly here in the Netherlands. Likewise, I may completely fail to integrate into your culture.

Do you realize that compared to you probably many people do “overthink” things? And that that expression is very relative? Or do you want to also claim that your amount of thinking is the exact right amount?
Agreed 100%. That's what I mean by having more transparency.

As someone who layouted more than one printed book: this is a pretty normal paragraph size for printed books. Even a bit short maybe (e.g. compared to novels).

I have no idea whether this applies to Lex, or if there are better explanations, but... he probably just asks. In my limited experience with my little podcast in the sports analytics world, I'm consistently surprised by who says yes, and how few people say no. ~90% of the people I've asked to be a guest have said yes, and those who have said no haven't done so because they're "too famous" or something like that.

Hash database checks would be a privacy friendly alternative to custom agents physically accessing your phone when you enter a country. This would be more efficient as well, so checking 100% of travellers phones (and connected cloud storages) would be possible. A very effective way of protecting your country from IS terrorists!

Way back when I was in school and much less confident than I a now, it was actually comments like yours that hurt the most. What you're essentially saying is "I know what was said is true and I don't dispute that, but you shouldn't have said it".

For me this was like a second blow. Criticism always hurts, but at least the first guy thought I was tough enough to take it. You, on the other hand, not only agree with the first guy, you think I'm so feeble that I need a "nice" person like you to shield me.

When people stick their neck out they will sometimes get hurt. This is totally normal and a natural way of learning and developing. Safe spaces don't make successful people. The comment you are replying to didn't even seem emotional to me and certainly didn't attack the person. It was just honest feedback.

Why doesn't Firefox have this?
Can't recommend this highly enough. It comes with the full PostGIS stack included, so command-line gdal, ogr2ogr, proj etc. - just add to your path and it's there for you. It runs multiple versions of Postgres, which came to my aid when Homebrew botched an upgrade: I could just copy the data files across to Postgres.app and recover them there. Overall it's so much better than installing Postgres via Homebrew.
The article says it should work.
> - We can write literals which look like strings but have type SQL

What I'm not clear is: what prevents me from accidentally/stupidly doing:

filter : SQL = "WHERE " + userInputCol + " = ?"

Is this special string handling some compiler magic that distinguishes literal strings from string variables? If so then I think that in a language that supports something like this you can indeed make a safe library. The main downside is that you need to work entirely with compile-time constructs - e.g. you can't use something like printf to take a compile-time format string and turn it runtime into a query; and you can't take queries from a separate file, they must be in source code. But these may be acceptable trade-offs.

Do you know of any library that implements this?
Apple have a fairly detailed page on the approach including independent evaluations. Which states that it’s only for iCloud. But there’s no reason why this couldn’t change in the future.

That doesn't make any sense and it's not how it works in a number of other countries. You could (for example) make it illegal to send these pictures instead.
On your target data your model is not high variance.

The way you use over-fitting is misleading. In fact, according to the article, the model is fit just right for its purpose.
If it were fit any less, given the five pictures, it might not work at all.
Your confusion arises because what you actually change is the objective and the DGP in question.

It should be clear to anyone that over-fitting and under-fitting is conceptually tied to the DGP under consideration. It makes no sense to speak of a model being "generally over fit" (!)

An "intuitive definition" of over-fitting that does not take into account this crucial fact will always be problematic.

For instance, if you train a model to have zero error, it does not imply it is over fit. If your training set is broad enough, and the production environment has the same exact underlying DGP, then the model is simply fit well.
In practice, the training data is not the same as all the data coming from the latent DGP that the model eventually encounters. For that reason, such a model would be overfit.

However, in this case, the model does not seem to fail on any DGP that corresponds to the task: Identifying one type of Batman. It is therefore not overfit.

I am sorry, but op is right.
That is likely to change in the near future. Hardware attestation of bootloader state is increasingly available. This is currently bypassed by pretending to be an older device that doesn't possess that capability. As long as device bootloaders continue to differentiate between stock and custom OS signing keys it won't be possible to bypass SafetyNet.
> Can’t the blockchain help with misidentifying individuals?

It can absolutely help with misidentifying individuals forever and ever.
Maybe it works for your current team, but there are many people out there that are more introverted and care more about how a group feels and to them that is intimately connected to how it functions. These people are also valuable but you'd scare them away. As a result I think your team is not very diverse and inevitably you will just squash any resistance and make what your team thinks is best because more silent people (with their interesting, different perspective) won't stand up to you anymore. I think this is a recipe for failure.

We did an "Insights course" [0]. It seems like you are in a team of red people (competitive, determined, strong willed), but green people (caring, sharing, encouraging) people will have bad time there. Same for precise, deliberate, questioning individuals.

I think it is good to consider how the way you communicate can affect others. Honestly based on what you are saying I would like working with you, I too have a big mouth. But don't you want to at least try to be a person that can work with any character type?

And does it matter who is welcome in your environment? Sometimes people are stuck with you, it seems like when they don't match your expectations, you are going to give them a bad time.

Does IntelliJ support Elixir? I am writing Elixir now so would like to know that. However, I haven't encountered any problem while using elixir-ls with eglot (Emacs). For performance, I can recommend enabling native-comp. It's now merged into master which I recompile every month or so, it's pretty stable despite being git HEAD.
Well more than public thinkers and conspiracy theorists which there is no dearth off, what is missing are people who are consistent nuisance to the powers that be. Not in TV studios or the twttersphere. But on the ground.

The powers thats be dont care what Snowden says. They dont see him as a problem anymore. Cause he is not on the board anymore.

Gandhi too would write a whole lot, to process what he was going through, and grasp at whatever he could find to convince himself he wasnt nuts for taking a stand, just like Snowden.

But the difference is, he didnt just retire into "public thinker" mode. He would pick a sensitive case, head straight to the center of action, court arrest and cause the entire state to shutdown. The Rowlett Act was no big diff to what Snowden is protesting. But Gandhi got the brits to bend.

Can you imagine what happens if Snowden sneaks back into the US and courts arrest by the Dems while they chant about defending privacy, and ideally does it exactly when some inevitable privacy/data exploitation related fiasco happens?

But that wont happens cause he has decided to become a social media influencer, oh sorry public thinker, just like the rest of America.
Not being in part of core mean multiple solutions to fit different needs. Also a lot of people don't really need HA so it keep core feature more focused. (Again HA is supported at low level, you could totally achieve HA without third party, it just require more internal ressources)

There are a lot of companies out there which provide enterprise support for PostgreSQL + HA.
Exactly. Do people sell computers with ReactOS?

OTOH Wine, properly improved and adjusted, sort of made a dent in the market in the form of Steam game consoles.
He's also not terribly organised or rule following. He probably just thought he could ignore the US tax and no one would notice. I'm not sure if he paid in the end or got around it by renouncing his citizenship?
Hence the airing out once in a while. Keeping windows open is bad, esp if you live on a busy street, not to mention impossible to control the moisture then. So you would have to find a balance that fits your living space.
Sadly I can't find good polls on some of the things I want to talk about, so this has a bit of an anecdotal note. But I've been living in a majority turkish subdistrict for most of my life, and have many german-turkish friends, as well as friends and family teaching in schools with many turkish and arab descendant kids. But first some facts: "People with a migration background", which includes their children and children's children even if they were born here, make up 21% of the population. Half of these hold german citizenship. 40% of all kids have a migrant background. 12.5% of people with a migrant background are so called Spätaussiedler, ethnic germans who migrated to Germany after WWII.[1]

Attidudes of Germans at large towards immigration are very mixed: 71% think that it leads to higher strain on the welfare state, 69% think it leads to conflicts with "the natives", 63% think it leads to problems in schools. At the same time, 67% think that it makes life in Germany more interesting, and 64% think immigration is important to combat the effects of our quickly aging population.[2]

Now on to what I think is the biggest failure, which is now very hard to correct: Many second or third generation immigrants still don't feel like they are "real" germans. There's still a strong class divide, which in urban areas also leads to segregated communities. They are underrepresented in politics (except for the Spätaussiedler) and white collar jobs, and there is whitespread employment discrimination, especially against people of turkish, arab and african descent.[3] While the current government declared a "welcome culture" in 2015 during the refugee crisis, in the heads of the majority of the population, there's still a very clear picture of how a "real german" looks and acts. - While close to half of the population admits that "Islam is a part of german culture now", they will still ask Ahmed "where he is really from", and rather hire Oscar over him.

This also partially explains why Erdogan is so popular among turkish Germans: They feel disrespected here, so the vision (delusion) of Erdogan making Turkey into this powerful and strong state is very appealing to them.

I do think things are getting slightly better, but there's a long way to go, and there's also risks of things turning really sour: Anti-democratic ideology is relatively widespread among the muslim minority, in contrast to the rest of the population, their level of religiousness stays about the same, the current money policy of the ECB leads to an enormous rise in living cost in urban areas, and the divide between rich and poor in Germany is increasing.

On the other hand, using Bitcoin means that there is no realistic protection against theft and unavoidable mistakes. Maintaining a business without a way to correct mistakes and any kind of protection against scams seems to be hard to implement in practice.
You can develop allergies to things you had been exposed to early in your life. That's not a hole, if I didn't make that clear that's what I also meant, in addition to new allergens.

Apple plans to scan US iPhones for child sexual abuse images – Apple
The problem with that is in North America they used to build as much as they possibly wanted why because there were a ton of trees to cut down and build stuff with. That phase is over now we have to import wood. Redesigning stuff is not a good idea if you're talking about reconstruction. I always think about the fires of San Francisco completely decimated the whole city. They cut down the largest redwood trees the whole Forest of them to build all that and then it just caught on fire.
I do not know the details, so I can speculate only. A lawsuit may yet happen if that is the only way to free up the money. However, a lawsuit is expensive and time consuming, so it is probably not the best place to start. Also, I don't believe the bank has any obligation to do business with a customer, so the most you could hope for would be to free up the funds. I believe the author would prefer to continue to be able to bank unimpeded (and switching banks won't help as the problem will follow unless and until it is cleared up). Finally, the bank has a pretty good defense. They are required by law to impose the sanctions, so prudence requires them to act first and ask questions later.
Thank you so much for reading my post and writing this comment.

What you highlighted is the reason why I wrote it. Most of the discussions are of an abstract harm against an immediate one. They other those involved.

My experience isn’t unique. It’s fairly mild.

There are people who have gone to jail because of a mistake by an algorithm. And many who have been arrested. Here’s one with Apple involved, https://www.businessinsider.com/tech/a-teen-is-suing-apple-f...

The harm is real. And I have been on both sides. I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I know this would not have helped in my case. And in the cases of the other survivors I know. It was our environments that led to our experiences. The adults ignored it, were in on it, or in denial.

Apple is trying to solve a complex social problem with an algorithm. One that we are supposed to trust has been made without errors or bugs.

I can’t see the upside here.

Ideally (another should) moral considerations would always apply. External shaming comes into play when you've managed to outrage the moral sense of enough people, or powerful enough people. Yes, this does ultimately come down to social approval, but mediated by whether you can make a moral argument that people respect or not.

With regard to every previous argument we've had on here about Facebook banning people, it comes down to approval or not of the content, conduct, or actors being banned. Only the most extreme people argue that you should be able to post goatse to Facebook (not actually illegal!) without them removing it.
That assumes your application can connect to the internet and can be accessed from the internet. There is a vast array of offline-only kubernetes clusters.

You can still of course use self-signed certificates (or setting up your own "CA"), but you'll hit other problems related to runtime certificate reloads and so on. It's still a lot of work to enable SSL for fully offline services.

Ah yes, the countryside. Not quite sure how we're going to be housing 7+billion in the countryside.

Doesn't seem like a practical solution. Not in the least because moving the countryside will increase car dependence and pollution. But I guess the view might be nicer in the short term.

I agree that air quality is probably neglected. Mechanical ventilation (with or without heat/enthalpy recovery) with filters seem like a net win in every dwelling. I haven't had to open a window since installing mine. Less pollen, way less mosquitos, and constant fresh air. A lot cheaper in the long term than those gimmicky devices which circulate indoor air and filter out a bit. If it's in your house, you've already inhaled it.
Anecdotal but many on-premise applications I've worked with recently didn't work with our SSO when I tried using OIDC, but worked fine using SAML. The reasons were various, none were really valid.
I agree. I've been naive at the beginning of my career, thinking that a great product sells itself, but it's simply not true.

There's so much trash everywhere that is earning millions (book reading apps, silly chart-db software, proprietary SQL databases etc.).

I was quite shocked by the levels of disfunctionality in the software engineering sections of the company I worked at yet still, the company has huge success. We basically got requests from the product team to make something work in a day or two and even though it was completely horrible code that absolutely paralyzes us at some moment in the future, the company still reigns.
Wow, the thedailywtf.com sure brings back memories.

I think it’s VR and 3D in that you can choose to develop 3D apps and games on Desktop systems without VR headset or you can choose to target 3D headsets or both.

By disabling the headset module (lovr.graphics.headset = false) the app functions as a normal desktop app.
Other carriers will provide a bootloader unlock code to you on request once the device is paid off. As far as I know, Verizon refuses to do so under any circumstances for any device.

Anecdotally I’ve observed in rural areas, from which I was born and raised, fast food jobs, paper delivery, some janitorial work, etc., are all done by teenagers who do it for summer cash or just building their initial work experience. In the metro areas, where I live and/or travel, these jobs are exclusively staffed by older immigrants.
Have you tried Panda3D, because I've been experimenting with it recently, and it seems to work pretty nicely ...
This is highly state dependent. Plenty of US states will swap out a foreign license (Canada or Europe) for a US license.
> If you have a set of key value pairs where all the values are the same, you can use a Map or HashMap. These are both easily serialisable.

This is ultimately the choice most people suggested back then, but I have two issues with it:

1. It leads to a ton of boilerplate, first in the step that converts the request record to a map, then adding stuff to the map and then serializing it. Instead, consider what just adding a field to what you know is a record is in F#:

let newRecord = {| oldRecord with token = token |}

This is vey close to the spread syntax of JS, and is super intuitive and elegant to write.

2. You lose type safety: say your JSON object has a bunch of things of different types within it, like a record with a few records or arrays inside. If you want to convert that to a map, you effectively have to make it a Dictionary<string, obj>, or whatever the Haskell equivalent for obj would be (obj is the "base class" in F#: everything is an obj.) That means you completely lose type information from that point on.

The closest any functional language gets to what I would consider "ideal" in this scenario is ReScript, which allows you to type row polymorphic open objects and use JS-like syntax to work with them. This is in addition to good ol' records, of course. Reason is pretty good, in this aspect, too.

The closest any functional language gets to this
One in a trillion? I wonder what assumptions went into computing that number, and I cheer for the "courageous" person who is bluffing it inside the company. Anybody in tech knows that whatever assumptions were valid yesterday are very likely to break today or tomorrow, and with it, whatever piece of software used it. Apple should know better, they have zero-day exploits regularly. And that's before even accounting for the political pressures.

I can't precisely buy a new phone in a whim, but I'm not trusting my well-being to any "one in a trillion" in the marketing of a company.
Reducing car dependence really ought to be in the top 3 of environmental action points. Clean up energy production, reduce car dependence, start removing CO2 from the atmosphere. There are about 1 BILLION cars in use. It boggles the mind.
