A look at your anti-features list reminds me somewhat of Zig. Obviously the polymorphism is not in the Zig wheelhouse, but there are some similar seeming paths running through the readme. Your comment had me expecting a Haskel/ML presenting language, but now I’m wondering. Where do you see the syntax going?

That was interesting but I’m not sure it answered the question? Was the answer that they don’t “time freeze” at the threshold of event horizons touching each other, but instead “pucker out” to meet each other?
No, storage and bandwidth are quite expensive. We will purge your data from our systems 2 months after your subscription expires.

You will have an easy way to download all of your data, and we will notify you multiple times to do so before the deletion actually happens.

Per phone might be low bandwidth, but tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of phones is not low bandwidth.
Differences in handshake sounds would give you some idea of the negotiated speed as others mentioned, but also a good idea of if the handshake was going to succeed. Sometimes you'd get a bad modem or bad line and the handshake would sound wrong and try several times and either not connect or connect at a very low bitrate; cutting that off early was useful.

Of course, in a single line household, sometimes you'd catch the line in use, and the speaker would confirm that vs no dialtone error. Ocassionally, you might also get glare --- picking up an incomming call before it rings, and listening in might help recover from that as well.

Speaker on while connected could be useful for monitoring for connection disturbances (and maybe forcing a lower speed on a reconnect) or call waiting beeps, but was usually too low signal to bother. Also, I had a phone that would click/chirp on call waiting even when on hook which was a lot more actionable.

You misunderstand the role of modern banks: they're not there to protect your money, they exist to create money through credit. Everything else (payment routing and account management) is just an accessory, a necessary evil. They want your money in "safe" accounts only because the law forces them to keep around a certain amount of cash in case all that credit turns bad.
this vaguely aligns with my experiences

Can I apply this article to the theme of the site? You’ll never get rich by joining a startup. Founders and investors have too much control writing the rules and making the decisions. Everyone hates bureaucratic institutions but the alternative with a startup is an oligarchy consisting of (often) inexperienced people playing the role for the first time. Even bad exits favor the founders over the employees.

>>You mean the adjustment from the post-war period of 1945-1975? Just like the one you referenced from 1870-1900?

I just explained that the 1945-1975 period was not the same as the 1870-1900 period. The latter was associated with massive gains in the market position of US industry. The former was associated with the degradation of the market position of major US industrial firms, making those wage gains unsustainable.

>>The post-war boom in wages here, that you can see many times in history, occurs due to demographics.

Why would demographics cause the post-war boom? I see you reference death ("they're in fact dead"), which I take to mean you are implying that WW2 caused a large enough decline in the working age population so as to explain the large post-war wage gains, but 420,000 military deaths out of a total US population of 139 million in 1945, cannot explain the magnitude of wage growth in the post-war period.

>>And what does this deadweight loss thing mean exactly... coming from someone who studied economics?

This is the Wikipedia page defining the term if you're unfamiliar with it:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadweight_loss

It's a basic economics term, and has nothing to do with "casual libertarian groupthink".

Maybe you should assume good faith and debate on the merits of the arguments, instead of caricaturing me as a member of some group of libertarians "who got rich and conveniently stop believing in society". These kinds of comments are NOT grounded.

Work for a company with stock trading blackout periods. Setup a 10b5-1 plan to periodically sell your company stock, then when the blackouts are lifted invest the money you want to save into your company stock.

This has the drawback of being undiversified, but undiversified savings may be preferable to no savings at all.

>>“happenstance innovation in the hallway” is a myth perpetuated

hmm I experience it every day, where I over hear something in the hallway that another team it working on, that impacts my team.

but sure just deny my 20+ years experience and insert yours as more valid that mine...

I am sure what you experience is true for you, and I am sure as I said in my original comment my experience my not be true for a company that has been WFH as primary for years, or from their formation.

However if you work for a 60+ year old company that until 2020 never had any WFH then just try to graft on WFH, that is going to be an issue
I'm curious if Microsoft is suffering from a massive loss of generational expertise. At least right after XP we had to go through a security standdown where all code was reviewed and audited throughout the company. Subsequent features and services had to go through a pretty thorough security review at design time as well.

Over the past few years the number of security fiascos has been increasing. Is the internal Security team (forget what the org was called) dead now ?

I'm sure lack of dedicated testing is also a major factor, but do launches no longer have to satisfy a security review ? Maybe in the name of agile development ?
When working for an ISP I was told a story of a huge amount of noise getting into the system sporadically on a node in a neighborhood. Happened during a certain time only about once a week and only for about 15-20 minutes. They finally tracked it down to some guys electric weed wacker. They bought him a brand new one and took the offending one. I guess it was bringing the service to its knees every time he used it.

That's a very interesting system! I've been reading about it but I'm not sure how it applies.

> (if they have a preference over which action will be taken) are incentivised to give more extreme answers.

With yes and no answers, how can answers become more extreme? If you are asked "Is this misleading? Yes/No" and it's only marked as misleading when "Yes" is the majority, then you are incentivized to answer with your true opinion. If you want the post to be marked misleading, then answering yes increases the chance that it is marked as such.

The bayesian truth sereum information score makes sense when you are trying to reward people for truthfully answering your questions; for example by paying them [0]. When asking "Is this misleading?", how do you use the information score to compute who won?

Thanks for using our app. Voicera currently supports English (India) accent. However, more languages are definitely in the cards.
Great app and good work! Altough I havent used it. Maybe you can make an platform to load different versions of the Gitopanisad? IMHO, hands down, Prabhupada's 1972[1] translation is authorized and clear as day for all scientists. The only authority a child can trust is his mother when it comes to knowledge of the father. It's silly to still refer to the true and original knowledge base as just another religion of a civilization from yore. Sanskrit is the original language and its power and effectiveness needs not any qualification from the speaker. The only requirement is a humble attitude to actually desire the solution to all problems of life. The Vedas is Krsna Himself and do explain it all and Krsna is the most proper name we have for the Supreme Person of Godhead. God doesn't have a name we give Him one based on His qualities.

Honestly there is nothing wrong in making yet another app and more complexity, more websites and more of anything because this simple 700 verse song is the open source code for the soul and its ultimate goal so anything relating to any of the translations is a movement of good energy and karma for all involved. While reading actual paper books is the most basic of skills, most people cant/wont do it anymore. People are not interested in solving death, they simply want to enjoy life.

Kali-yuga doesn't help the probabilities either so most people wont even reach the most fundamental principles of no eating meat, fish or eggs, no intoxicants, celibacy and zero gambling(speculations; any/all). Which is simple austerity and self-control. If we cant control this machine of material energy how could we ever perfect our consciousness and realize our true religion is service to the Lord forever? Why is that such a difficult concept to fathom? A king has a servant that enjoys all his riches too. How then do we all have an issue understanding we are either controlled by force in karmic reactions and machine evolution from shit eating worms to humans to demigods or we can cleanse our mind by using the correct dharma for this age? Chanting Hare Krsna!

The vibration of sound from the Maha-mantra is actually The incarnation of God for this time so its God Himself because He is absolute. Most folks will dismiss it as philosophy/religion/rhetoric and never even question in an open way the fact, that is not established in our minds, we as souls are eternal and are the same as the Lord in quality. The real truth is the Lord is in everyone's heart and in every atom and is time itself and we each have a particular and unique relationship we fulfill for Him in the real world. Our sojourn in this dimension is temporary but certainly a dangerous one. Chant Hare Krsna and be happy!

It's certainly known that the observable universe does not contain an infinite number of electrons, as it has a finite size and finite mass. And it's rather moot to talk about the space beyond the observable universe that can never affect us or anything we can observe in any way whatsoever, so any other statements about it are inherently unfalsifiable, so all the science of physics is relevant only w.r.t. the (finite) observable universe.

And how many iPhones are going to be used out of network?

I can see people paying an extreme rate of say 10$/minute with serious warnings in a true emergency. But worldwide it might only be 100 phones at a time even with 10’s of millions of iPhones. Meanwhile averaging 100 calls * 10$/ minute is 1/2 billion dollars a year which could pay for bandwidth on LEO satellites.

Those numbers are of course pulled from thin air, but iridium suffers because few are going to keep such expensive service on a just in case basis. However, the technology and economics are really close to working out.
3% Formula to Invest in Yourself
> Unions have no power in a free market, which is why unionization rates were so low until the unions successfully hoodwinked society into believing their victim narrative, and had the government pass laws in their favor.

Unions have been outlawed (or taken over by the state) at several points in German history. Nowadays guilds and unions don't enjoy many special protections except for such things as the basic right of people to form associations: https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/gg/art_9.html

There's also no such thing as laws forcing employers to negotiate with unions. Employees who aren't part of the union in question are not subject to agreements negotiated between employer and unions: http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/tvg/__3.html

Also about "Unions have no power in a free market"... do you really stand by that statement? Because I've got a history book full of examples that say otherwise - of unions/guilds mattering even when facing opposition from the government.
Ask HN: Career Help in ML – Canada
Hello All,

I have created end-to-end ML projects and posted them on Github, however, it didn't help in getting a role in ML. So I thought, doing a certification would make my profile stronger. Banking on it thought of preparing for a 'Google ML Professional' certificate.

Am I on the right path? I am not sure, as I am doing everything on my own. Please share your advice.

Background :

I am an experienced senior software developer based out of CANADA wanting to do a career switch to Applied ML.

Appreciate your help and support.

Thanks!!

> Browser type and operating system of the devices from which you have logged in to ente to ensure account security.

I can't imagine how that information could be used to stop an attack that otherwise would succeed. Is this just so that you can say "Your last login was from Safari on an iPhone" to the user to reassure them their password hasn't been stolen (or the attacker has correctly guessed the most popular browser on the most popular platform)?

If so, this seems like a string that could be generated client-side, and stored encrypted on your server, so that you never have to log this data in plaintext.
Working to enable users of https://www.DreamList.com to record audio of any length and see it transcribed, ideally at the same time as the recording, while the recording is also saved. The goal is for grandparents to save stories for loved ones and not worry about quality of the transcription - just talk. When the recording is saved, the transcription can be redone or tweaked if needed later, but the memory is not lost. DreamList is web and soon native apps, so WebRTC connected to a cloud transcription service is my first instinct, but there are benefits to native iOS apis as well - especially being able to keep share stories while listening to other streams also on iOS (families talking and digging into stories together). What architecture/transcription approaches would you suggest? Any gotchas you've seen dealing with similar problems (accuracy given accents, do we train our own transcription based on gathered data, etc)?

I remember that you could build components (controls) in in a visual editor and wire up events with your code written in C# or whatever. Some controls came with baked in JS, like accordions and such. You could also wrap a part of your page in a ajax wrapper, and it wouldn't reload the whole page. The framework would generate all the glue code to send the POST requests etc, essentially abstracting the HTTP layer altogether. It would even keep local state in a hidden input field between re-renders.

> You can run linux TODAY, you can run netBSD TODAY. it's not fully featured yet but you can run it.

Apple understands very well that this is a very lacking feature of the M1, and that is why Apple is very cleverly using those reverse engineering effort as part of its online marketing to mislead some into beliveing that Linux or xBSD OSes will be available on the M1 in the very near future.

I can run a fully featured gui based Linux / xBSD / Windows XP on my 15+ year old single core Pentium machine even today ... that highlights how useless and crippled the M1 is in supporting alternative OSes. And that is simply because the M1 is as good as a locked down machine.
