The whole thing is strange I will need some time to read into how the heck did it all happen. Knowing the Japanese it is possibly another one of those management issues. But in fairness it make sense since WD is the largest customer of Kioxia. And Kioxia is having difficulties competing with Micron and Samsung.

1. Toshiba make NAND, in partnership with SanDisk.

2. Sandisk and part of those NAND asset sold to Western Digital. Along with long term purchase agreement etc.

3. Westinghouse fiasco happened, nearly brought Toshiba down to Bankruptcy.

4. Toshiba had to spin out their most valuable business which was their NAND.

5. Due to its sensitive nature, having any other NAND player buying Toshiba NAND would likely not pass regulation. And most current customers would like Toshiba to stayed independent, so a JV was formed and if I remember it had Apple, Dell, and many other computer vendors contributing money to the fund.

6. Somehow Westinghouse wasn't as bad as they thought, now Toshiba dont feel comfortable selling its NAND business, so after long "discussions". Toshiba Memory was spin out with the JV owning 49% of the company with ( if I remember correctly ) little voting right. While Toshiba owning 51%.
i.e Nothing much has changed.

7. Somehow decided that JV and partnership didn't work ( or not ), rebrand itself as Kioxia and has a different US Fund owning it.

8. After a few years finally decided it wasn't much fun with NAND. May be we should have just give up and sell it to WD. As WD has originally proposed a long long time ago...

I'll take that as a compliment!

All joking aside, I'm not saying every word of the article is wrong or anything. Maybe I'm just being too literal or pedantic or something. It just seems to me that the article sets out to make one very specific claim, and I just don't think it succeeds in making a strong case for that specific claim. Is there some interesting discussion there? Yes. Are there things that Kelly says that I agree with? Yes, absolutely.

So maybe we're not too far apart on this after all.
"Something important" means something our democratically elected government is in charge of, not something run by a private company.
+1 to that, the Wallace Collection is incredible - I think it's one of those things in London that not nearly enough people know about.

It's also got an interesting history: "Bequeathed to the nation by the widow of the illegitimate son of the 4th Marquess of Hertford in 1897 on the condition that no object should ever leave the collection, even for loan exhibitions." - from my write-up on https://www.niche-museums.com/36

Hearing "Exclusively on Spotify" on any podcast ad is a sure-fire way to make sure I never listen to an episode. One of the great features of podcasts is the flexibility in listening platform and I'd really rather not switch to Spotify's substandard user experience.
It's more nuanced than that. Prior to the delta variant, there was strong evidence that the vaccines also prevented you from being a carrier of the virus in most cases.

The calculus with delta is different, as it does seem that vaccinated people can spread delta. But the severity of that spread, as well as the amount of time a vaccinated person can spread it, is certainly lower than that of an unvaccinated person.
It did. Joe even said he didn't care about itunes ratings back in the day. He just wanted people to listen to it in anyway they liked.

I like the idea of more operating systems to pick from

well this would be one motivation really.

personally, i like the ability to break with conventions and do things differently. especially on the user interface level.

like hurd or plan 9, haiku has some unique aspects.

Doesn't that apply to everyone's OS of choice though? Actually maybe it doesn't... But it's not very helpful unless you can be at least a little bit specific about why it makes you happy.
I for example like to hear everything from the beginning of the pandemics.. it is quite interesting to see now how wrong/right the experts were.
If anyone wants a datapoint, I stop listening to podcasts once they go to Spotify. I use Overcast, and generally don't have the wherewithal to chase content. I'm guessing there are more like me. I was an infrequent listener to Joe Rogan, but now I am not a listener at all (because it moved to Spotify).

Also, there seems to be a lot of judgement of the kind of person Joe Rogan is (conspiracy, etc) in the comments. I have never once listened to Joe Rogan to listen to Joe Rogan. The fact of the matter is he gets fantastic guests doing long form conversations. I only ever showed up for the guests. Generally also the case for many other podcasts, Lex Friedman, Tim Ferris, etc.... the value they bring is more the guests they attract and the space they create for the guest.

I guess it would be interesting to deep fake the voice of the host and see how many people actually cared about the host.

I have a feeling that I couldn't trust Reddit staff to actually identify misinformation even if they saw it.

I think that the fact that the voting mechanism doesn't handle this already naturally is a sign that Reddit's voting algorithm needs revisiting as a whole.

Are you confusing outside air temperature for body temperature?
Money aside, I personally feel the Spotify deal was terrible for Rogan. He does more for Spotify than they do for him. Not least of which because Spotify, while pretty great for music, is terrible as a podcast player.

And, yeah, he has gone off the deep end since the Spotify deal. Somebody dumping a giant basket of cash on your doorstep probably does the ego no favors.
When this happened to me I assumed Spotify had become logged out of my account somehow. Nope, they’re injecting adverts randomly into paying customers podcasts. I cancelled Spotify that moment. I never really agreed with their attempted land grab on podcasts, this, however, I felt had really crossed a line. There are plenty of other podcasts I listen to, some without ads, supported only by Patreon, etc. so the money I spent on Spotify will get redistributed to them.
He's not white supremacists. He openly says he prefers black men and has on several podcasts. He's just not a typical gay man so he gets villified.
Anyone know any good alternatives?

I listen to the Rachman Review on geo-politics and China Talk. But i dont think anyone else has as wide a range as Joe. Tim Ferris is ok but he's way more niche.

The argument against this tech is a slippery slope argument - that this technology will eventually be expanded to prevent copyright infringement, censor obscenity, limit political speech or other areas.

I know this is a controversial take (in HN circles), but I no longer believe this will happen. This kind of tech has existed for a while, and it simply hasn't happened that it's been mis-applied. I now think that this technology has proved to be an overall net good.
Allow me to count the number of over 50 year olds I crossed paths with while burning the midnight oil Getting Shit Done crunching at the office...

The only time those offices had lights on after hours were when the cleaning people occupied them.

My assumption has been even after the nest empties these folks have better things to do like relaxing in their preferred home(s), eating their preferred meals, sleeping in their preferred bed, all accompanied by their preferred people. They have substantial obligations to self, and feel entitled to that having put in their time in years past.

Young people suck at setting boundaries let alone enforcing them. Older people generally take better care of themselves and don't fall for the infantilizing exploits of "startup culture".
Maybe, but I thought it has been relatively known for a decent while now that fruit juices weren't great for you due to the rate you ingest sugar from it. Maybe we'll learn they are more bad, but it's not like we didn't already know you should limit your sugary drinks.
No wonder. Spotify is the most broken piece of shit on the app stores by far.

Hey, let me download these so i can listen on the plane. Oh, the app just hangs on startup when you're in airplane mode. Well that's pointless.

And on and on.

It's a wonder anyone even can listen if they wanted to.

Sorry, this comment is probably not HN material, but every time I use Spotify it makes me angry from how it just doesn't work.

> We don't know how to make AI that will learn to play even simple game like montezuma's revenge in some reasonable play time like 30 min.

Explain to me why a Tool-assisted Speedrun doesn't count as "AI". Its certainly not a human who is playing that (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFB0kuPx5mQ).

I'm not sure if that sort of thing is worth the investment.

But if we have "Fly the F35 airframe" (which is incredibly unstable), then we suddenly reach "only computers can fly this thing" levels. Just the assumption of super-human control systems is baked into modern products. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyN-CRNrb3E

> He recently pointed to a 5 year old paper to suggest that vaccinations are bad because they allow more virulent strains to come about.

Papers from the 1900s are still our best description of some physical phenomena. A paper's age, taken on its own, has nothing to do with truth or untruth.
So you're proposing an entirely new legal regime around the interminably gray area of commercial activity, and it's intersection with the equally gray area of consent by children, which is currently centered on age, typically late teens for most uses?

Relief in the courts would require a completely new body of common law. In the mean time, legislation would be the only way to provide compensation to victims of un-consented childhood photography.

What specific ideas do you have for laws that could start to provide this relief?
> “If the data that you’re putting in is based on historical discrimination,” said Aracely Panameño, director of Latino affairs for the Center for Responsible Lending, “then you’re basically cementing the discrimination at the other end.”

They site numerous objective data points to support what is well summarized by that quote. Whether or not you are convinced is up to you but suggesting that AP news is withholding information and doing everyone a disservice in publishing the article seems like a bit of a stretch.
They don't burn books, they just remove them. Those episodes happened, and removing them is a form of gaslighting. If they find the content objectionable then putting a disclaimer, if it is objectionable enough then removing the entire series from the platform could be an option, but it is lost history. In this case the artist doesn't care, and probably is happy to sweep those episodes under the rug. It is like how Disney wishes they hadn't made "Song of the South".
I've been in different Data Science roles. For most of them my output was code and code going to production (which meant different things in different places). For one of my jobs my output was mostly PowerPoint and I left that job quickly because of what mattcdrake discussed. I was also in Data Science consulting for a software company for a long while, so I got to see what a lot other Data Science teams were doing.

One huge challenge for many Data Scientists is that they have a lot of incompatible expectations from all the different teams they work with. The stakeholder wants a model in 3 weeks, but doesn't understand what a model is what it means to build one. The executive wants to see ROI on their Data Science Investment because it's built into their 12 month financial plan. The Data Engineering team provides access to the data, but don't have the resources to help with all the data issues you are seeing. The Subject Matter Expert is trying their best to help, but they don't understand why you can't easily implement what they are saying. The project manager wants an estimate, but you have no idea how fast any of these other parties are going to move or issues are going to be resolved.

Then there is your manager. How do they evaluate your performance exactly? Models deployed per month? Reports per week? Data Issues fixed a quarter, even though nobody but you seems to understand why those issues need to be resolved?

What if you do a lot of great work but the model sucks anyway because of stuff out of your control? As a Software Engineer, your manager can still say "great job" when you ship, even if it fails with users. Nobody blames a Data Analyst if a report they create shows something is bad.

It's hard to feel satisfied in a job where you face these conflicting expectations. I think in other roles (e.g. Software Engineer, Data Analyst, Data Engineer), the expectations are more consistent because you intersect with fewer people and your work is better defined. Even if the metrics are crap (e.g. Lines of Code), at least they are consistent.

I'm not unhappy in my current Data Scientist job. I'm also a bit older and jaded, so to me "not unhappy" is pretty good. One of the big reasons I'm not unhappy is because my output is code and not slides/reports.
It's been frustrating watching the Spotify (and general movement) with podcasts fragmenting and going exclusive. Spotify won with music because it improved upon the existing state of listening to music and offered a free or cheap solution that was even a compelling alternative to piracy.

Podcasts for the most part were in the ideal state for consumers, almost always free and mostly client independent distributed w/ RSS. I don't think there is much of any argument that Spotify can improve that state for consumers by taking a podcast exclusive. These deals are just payouts for the hosts not investments that make the shows better. Most even very successful podcasts likely have low opex (some exceptions like NYT Daily) and don't benefit from a big pile of cash.

On a different note regarding the Rogan Deal, Spotify took ages to add video streaming support on Apple TV (main way I would catch Rogan) which basically caused me to quit casual watching. They also only recently added offline playback for Apple Watch and even then it's premium exclusive and requires manual downloading of eps. I don't understand at all why an enormous company like Spotify is so neglectful of the entire apple ecosystem.

that's really cool. how do you classify a patient as "low risk"? can you base this off of history and lab work, or will they need TTE and a baseline EKG first?
What happened? Liberalism used to have a solid footing on the essentials of the constitution. If your enemies or people you don't like don't have rights, you don't either. The ACLU used to understand this probably better than most organizations and today, like much of CA and NY, they're lost.
Yeah I completely agree with this, as long as one or two people in your group are good cooks.

It's low stress, great conversation starter, gets the crowd together, and in some cases an opportunity for teamwork.

The idea is that due to the special repair it will be costly enough to the point where you will opt for buying a new laptop.

It's $200 for a 2015 MacBook Pro for Apple to replace the battery. An aftermarket battery costs around $50 but it's tricky to install.

As a paying customer, I wonder what I'm paying for when I get a 15 minute ad of Joe Rogan hard pitching me something.
Haiku tangent:
I'm no Haiku master, but as I understand it a proper Haiku should succinctly convey the experience of a moment in time. That's really the hallmark of a Haiku. Use of "seasonal words" is a traditional, but not breaking requirement. And the 5-7-5 thing is somewhat misleading since the Japanese (rough) equivalent to a "syllable" is shorter than an English syllable such that a 5-7-5 Haiku in English tends to be ~30% longer in time taken to say than a Haiku in Japanese. (This is what I can recall off the top of my head from The Haiku Handbook. Which is much more worth reading than my comment if you're interested in Haiku.)
Giving a platform to crackpots isn't always dangerous, but in the case of vaccines it's a public health concern. It's definitely not a good idea to give legitimacy to antivaxers during a pandemic when people dying. Save that conversation for another time.
The discussion here is really distracting. Came to read thoughts about Joe Rogan, and now it's just people arguing about COVID-19.
If your site is not responsible and you have a mobile version, please, place a mobile selector on the header of your pages, and a cookie on the client with the option.
Acknowledging that vaccines have some risk & at a certain risk reward trade-off you would not take the vaccine is not anti-vax.
That's cool. I wish the page included any info one should consider before shipping of a computer containing potentially sensitive information on it.
This. The flexibility to search for a video coupled with YT's spontaneous recommendations is something unique to YouTube. So many times I have seen a clip about PBS Newshour episode on YT and then end up watching whole Newshour episode or most of it. Having all videos on varied lengths in same platform makes it easy to consume based on the time available.
I think it was more than 100MM, he was making ~30MM per year on his own, and he signed a 3 year deal with Spotify. Im not sure why you'd sell for the exact amount you'd make if you just kept doing what you are doing with the exception of having to handle all advertising yourself and possible delisting/banning from YouTube.
I've just poked through both the GetPocket site (https://getpocket.com/publisher/) and Mozilla's Readability Library GitHub page (https://github.com/mozilla/readability) without seeing obvious guidelines.

I don't think accusations of spewing anti-vax and anti-mask drivel have anything to do with his interviewing skills. They're certainly not mutually exclusive. The parent commenter didn't make any accusations about his interviewing skills.
>Milo Yiannopoulos is a self-proclaimed white supremacist

I think Milo is a scumbag, personally, but where did he self-proclaim that he's a white supremacist?

>Alex Jones testified to being a performance artist

No, he didn't. His lawyer attempted to argue that he was during a lawsuit, as a defense against full culpability for his actions. Lawyers (understandably) try to pull out everything they can to help their client. There's no evidence Jones himself has ever said this or thinks this.

Although most of his non-watchers seem to think he's just a con artist, after watching a cumulative dozens of hours of him on camera over the years, I'm convinced it's not an act and that he genuinely believes pretty much everything he's saying (except for cases where he's attempting to do a comedy bit). Unfortunately, a lot of people in the US believe all of the things he believes - and not necessarily because they're hearing it from him. They all drink from the same watering holes. In my opinion, this is why it's actually a lot more frightening than con artistry or performance art.
Not to mention Americans invented pepperoni.
I like his choice of guests (high percentage of scientists and interesting people, even if some of them are conspiracy theorists) and that he mostly lets people talk. But I lost a lot of respect for him after his recent MMA commentary. I've never seen such biased commentary in any sport as his in Adesanya vs Blachowicz. It was absurd.
