no one brings up the lack of friction as a feature for small personal projects either. I have made some things that are just for me and took a few min to code up but are a quality of life thing and spark joy when you use it. You don't feel bad for not remembering how to run some command that you should know or just get that "It Just Works®" satisfaction.

There's also the ikea effect of building something for just yourself but that's just a bonus if you aren't on a team.
The guy is a customer in the traditional FB way (pays for ads) and the new oculus way (buys oculus games & hardware).

FB is super annoying when you want to separate the business from any form of a personal account. Eventually you need to have some sort of personal FB account linked to a business to manage some key ad buy things AFAIK, at the small business scale at the very least.
https://tlsfingerprint.io/static/fingerprint.js is only a few lines and readable if you don't want to enable javascript.
Interesting, thanks.
I never expected to agree with Moldbug.
Don’t you just need to determine the scaling factor and now you have precise and accurate?
Per the post, the author is a paying Facebook advertiser. It seems like your theory isn't very predictive.
Isn’t Doppler shift a frequency shift, not a phase shift? Or is it both?
10-15% annual attrition is normal. If this is ~36 total departures in a quarter (2%) its entirely in line. But if its 36 in addition to some unspecified baseline it would be a moderate problem.
This is totally counter to my experience. NNs are a real pain involving architectural searches, hyperparameter searches, etc. They take forever to train. Sometimes it's even difficult to get them to converge. The easy magical things are GBTs. If you have a classification problem that isn't super non-linear, try a GBT first. There's hardly any tweaking and the training is fast.
Do you use plain terminal gdb or some sort of front end over it? Gdb is extremely powerful but UX is abysmal, I wish there was some interactive GUI that would expose most of its functionality in an interactive and intuitive way.
I would be cautious about interpreting those numbers without a bit of nuance.

The original spring 2020 outbreak in the UK was huge, affecting a sizable percentage of the population. However at that time PCR testing was nowhere near scaled up to the point that all of these cases could be tested.

Therefore if you were infected in the first wave, recovered, and are now reinfected 16 months later you probably aren't going to be one of those 137 because it's quite unlikely you were PCR tested the first time around.

That's not to say reinfection is super-common either, but it's probably at least an order of magnitude (or possibly even two) more common than that raw percentage would suggest. In other words, you've produced a statistic with zero significant figures of accuracy.
Do you have some samples?
The guy is an ad buyer although, so they are still missing support for their traditional revenue streams for small customers. Even comcast gives you customer support if you only buy things for $20/month from them ;)
Carbon offsets were always a very lightly disguised scam. Who knew?

Plain gdb, or its TUI on occasion.

EDIT: I originally wrote this on my phone and while in a bit of a rush. More relaxed today.

I learned plain (CLI) gdb in college, it was taught as part of an exercise in the 3rd CS course and I found it useful during the course. Though I also still largely used printf debugging back then. At some point I had to debug embedded systems that I could connect to via a serial terminal that had gdb running on them. A GUI was not feasible, so I really learned gdb at that point and found I remembered it well enough to not need another interface. But yes, a GUI would be nice especially if it's a tool you use infrequently (like it would be for me now, I don't do much in the way of professional C or C++ programming that would benefit from gdb knowledge at this point, or not on systems where it can be used).
It allows them to sidestep osha requirements also. Many bay area tech workers will now work in dangerously subpar housing (think asbestos, lead, inadequate ventilation). Some of these workers will suffer long term health consequences as a result. Workers who get cancer or illments due to sick building syndrome can sue. Remote workers cannot. This is less of an issue for those who relocate to areas with newer and more affordable housing, but some will stay in rundown apartments in Sunnyvale. I think the businesses are getting a much better deal than many seem to realize.
Humanoid robots won't be feasible while we're still tethered to existing Li-ion battery technology. The two advancements in robotics in recent years, Boston Dynamics' Atlas and Spot, have battery lives of 60 minutes and 90 minutes respectively. With a recharge requiring multiple hours, unless these things are tethered or we invent some kind of electrified floor tech, they are too niche and uneconomical, sadly.
And then people have nothing to retire on, unless the lowering of payroll taxes is combined with bringing back pensions (employer paid retirement income).

Pdb and/or its integration vscode for python. Back when I worked with Groovy professionally I made heavy use of the debugger in IDEA.
The actual problem of losing weight and maintaining it goes beyond thermodynamics and into the problems of satiety, willpower and psychology. Just going "it is trivially reducible to thermodynamics, why are we still talking about this?" is absolutely a thought-terminating cliche.

yea.. not a very good idea to invest in forests unless someone is going to actively log, graze or manage them, otherwise its just destined to burn and there goes your carbon. as we are learning now.

They mean quite a lot to me personally, but for the sake of argument let's assume you're talking about the "average person".

Sure, on some level that's arguably not wrong. Most individuals are unlikely to be personally targeted by hackers, and even if so might have less to lose from a hack than the cost of a new phone.

Even taking that for granted, I would suggest that it's in the interest of the federal government to use its regulatory power for the purpose of improving our national cybersecurity at scale. Letting millions of people continue to run unpatched devices because the alternative is prohibitively expensive is a disaster waiting to happen.
No, that was the point of LGPL (Lesser or Library GPL)

The point of GPL software is that it's to be used in a GPL system, where users retain modification rights to the system they've acquired, and to prevent proprietary systems from free-loading off of GPL work.

> ... than by an ideological plot to reframe discourse.

You seem to have read a lot into what I wrote. You're in basic agreement that "violence" in contemporary understanding has evolved to include non-physical contexts but you seem to have imputed that I have the belief that it is due to an "ideological plot to reframe discourse". That's odd and completely absent from any statement I've made.
And it's not like white people have never been enslaved; every person in the world is a product of slavery. The fact that your great grandfather from the year 1000 AD was a slave could very well have meant you were born to a difficult upbringing now. The fact that it's difficult to trace back that far does not mean it was monumentally important for your circumstances today.

People choose a starting point of history that is convenient for their narrative.
Ridiculous. End of.

> How can this interpretation be the common one when a common knowledge collection like Wikipedia says otherwise?

It's not my burden to explain how. I'm not even sure why or how: it just is a widespread usage. I'm telling you it's also the widespread usage in my native language, and your answer seems to be "but Wikipedia!" -- go figure.

> That's exactly the topic we're talking about here: "Conspiracy theory" is made into a thought-terminating cliché.

I understand that's the gist of your argument. I'm just saying it's also a convenient defense deployed by people who engage in conspiracy theories, a sister defense of the old "you're narrow minded!". If something is a conspiracy theory, it's not a TTC to call it one.
>The posture that the team has towards pushing those latter ones is what generally makes people unhappy.

Well, pledge and unveil work fine.
Not only that, but if you're working a low wage job you likely have to take multiple jobs just to survive, so you a) don't have the money to make many purchases, even at a discount and b) don't have the time to enroll in a degree program and take classes. What people need is enough money or resources to have some savings and breathing room.
A McDonald's wage isn't going to pay for representation, so you better hope there's easy evidence to be had that what's happening to you is a policy-level scheme to defraud employees so you can attempt a class action.

The irony is that mistreating low-level employees actually reduces litigation liability if they can't co-ordinate. The less you pay them, the less they can afford litigation, both from a time and money perspective.
Perhaps they're trying to avoid a situation where banned people get a better experience because they don't have to deal with the social features.
My father related to me a TV news story long ago about an Italian man who won the lottery. As the news was about to interview him, a man pushed him aside and announced "He's a good Communist Party member, and is going to give it to the Party!" The recipient in turn shoved him aside and said "No I'm not, I'm not a Communist anymore!"

I might have misunderstand the blog post but it seems to me that everything that was tried used a "2-chain" which works on the assumption that the same type of people enjoy talking together.

From my personal experience although this can often be true it can also often be completely wrong. Concretely the friends I have are not a copy of myself and I am not necessarily friends with those that are very similar to me.

Another way to put it is to put people's personality as a binary, they're either of type I or type II.

In the example given, person A and C both had a non-trivial conversation with person B. So person B is type I and person A and C type II. In this case type II can be interpreted as "has non-trivial conversations with type I". There is no reason for person A and C which are both type II to have a non-trivial conversation.

I’m shocked chatroulette even still exists. It makes me wonder what their dedicated user base is like. My gut says it would be either some of the coolest and most interesting people on the internet or some of the creepiest and most shocking trolls.
Is "fake news" the newest thought-terminating cliché?
It is nice, but they chose to leave some odd legacy stuff around.

For example, you can make a Win32 GUI app, but the console window still shows. So, you can hide it, but it flashes briefly anyway.

Also, there's weird overlap of features, sometimes because it's so easy to call out to dot net. Like, there's Start-Job, but there's also Runspaces and System.Threading.Thread. Makes it hard to find the "right way" to do something.

I'm surprised our experiences differ so greatly. It's true that you have to be particularly determined to get results, but it's not true that they take forever to train. At the height of my productivity, I was aiming for at least three completed experiments per day, and always made sure to have at least one going while I was sleeping.

It's a bit like saying it takes forever to grow tomato plants. Well, yes. Yes it does. Welcome to gardening.

ML is problem-space gardening. Yep, it's hyperparameter searches. Yep, it's architecture searches. No, it doesn't take nearly as long as you're implying, because you can quickly narrow the problem space in log(N) steps. (It would be foolish to do a hyperparam search in linear increments.)

Resources have also never been more plentiful. TRC literally gives you 100 TPUs when you sign up. https://jaxtputest.vercel.app/ That means you can (and I did) run 100 training sessions simultaneously. https://www.docdroid.net/faDq8Bu/swarm-training-v01a.pdf

Of course I think you have it wrong here (and I don't really appreciate being told that I have a lack of comprehension, nor having my argument misrepresented in such a way. Perhaps try to consider the counterarguments being made in this thread more charitably).

I think Nelson's point was that the computer is a strict superset of those previous forms of writing. It doesn't need to replace every single instance of pen and paper, or Rolodex, or secretarial staff, but there's no reason why it shouldn't in any case where the cost is low enough.

I think that the argument that the smartphone's UI is more synchronous than those past technologies is true in some ways but it's a weak one: that's easily solved by just having multiple computers, or multiple terminals (or most likely a desktop and a smartphone). If that is not yet cheap enough, that's still fine, because you could simply continue to use the smartphone together with a notepad or secretary until it is cheap enough (as many do today).

If people are choosing to forgo those past technologies in exchange for a more synchronous UI today, I don't think it's because they are not imaginative enough to understand that notepads can still be used. It is simply because they are willing to accept a somewhat more synchronous interface in exchange for a vastly more efficient ability to execute those tasks synchronously. Or, perhaps they simply don't find it to be too synchronous: after all, we only have two ears and two eyes, so there is a limit to the advantage of having multiple channels, and perhaps modern smartphone users are just very effective at maximizing the bandwidth of that interface (considering how many have pointed out here that there are many options for multitasking on smartphones).
Among themselves? Why wouldn't they? No one is obligated to participate.

I think that's the same idea as Ubuntu's snaps. A different implemention, of course. However, snaps are conceptual more secure. However there's rootless Docker now.

If you're on Verizon LTE usually if you talk to someone else on Verizon I think it uses VoLTE [1] which sounds as good to me as FaceTime audio -- excellent. Like completely uncompressed CD-quality audio.

Having been on the other side of this, I’d rather we encourage people to make use of formats/interfaces designed for machines and use the right tool for the job instead of scraping everything.

It’s incredibly easy for careless scrapers to disrupt a site and cost real money without having a clue what they’re doing.

I want people to think twice and consider what they are doing before they scrape a site.
I answered that I fundamentally reject the premise. It didn't throw an error. For all we know, they could actually be testing to see if people follow along with a contentious prompt or not.
3 billion active users.

If 0.1% have account issues in a year, that's 8,200 support tickets per day.

If each of those takes 20 minutes to resolve, then you'd need 115 support techs ... for three shifts, or about 350 total.

Oh, and covering several languages.

I'm guessing my 0.1% issue rate is low by a factor of 10--100. Resolution time may also be generous. Increase all other values correspondingly.

Objects would be a deadend but it would be nice if they had the option to return data structures. No reason why you can't have both text and strutured output.

> There is one thing I need to mention for anyone going the separate iCloud account route on corp devices: you probably should make sure you have it logged in from a personal Mac or something like that, or some other place where you can have passcodes sent. The reason is that if you should quit, you lose access to the authorized devices (phone, laptop) which will receive auth codes.

> Assuming you ever want to turn that off, you're going to need some way into the account. If you don't have a way to approve the login and provide the passcode, fixing that is going to be rather difficult.

Don't use that account on the machine for anything else. Then, if you ever need to get back in and shut things down to stop the autopay stuff, you'll have a way.

Use iCloud Family and make child accounts for corp devices.

As the “parent” account, you control the “child” account, even if the company controls the device, and you can allow the child account to use the apps or music you own, track where the device goes, etc. etc..
Angstrom-Level Measurements with AFMs
Thanks for finding some papers but I’m not sure they support OP’s claim.

I’ll admit I don’t understand the first one. Somehow they’re claiming covid causes Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s? How can we know that after less than two years?

The second one is clear to mention “ Most people infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus will have no or mild to moderate symptoms associated with the brain or nervous system. However, most individuals hospitalized due to the virus do have symptoms related to the brain or nervous system, most commonly including muscle aches, headaches, dizziness, and altered taste and smell.”

So They are claiming an effect but not for mild cases like OP said and not really claiming brain damage anyway.
Anyone remember neutral news? I miss Peter Jennings.

No. I have personally seen two people next to each other get very different prices for the same trip though. IMO it's reasonably obvious that Uber is incorporating its estimate of willingness to pay in the moment to determine the price.
You're absolutely full of yourself.

I grew up taking months long summer vacations to a cabin that my father was building in the middle of British Columbia. No running water, outhouses, no road, you had to hike in or paddle down the lake. Fishing for Kokanee and Rainbow Trout. First time I went up there I was negative 6 months old and we went up there nearly every summer after that until I got out of high school. When I was around 6 years old we went up there in the middle of winter when it took cross country skiing about half a mile on the frozen lake to get there.

I've literally been that kid being taken into the outdoors by my parents.
