Regardless on the answer, I think this gonna be way too slow for your use case. Especially if you want the global optimum. Wikipedia says the current state-of-the-art is randomized algorithms, I don’t think these algorithms are looking for global optima.

I don’t recommend solving that, I think you’ll waste your time. How’s that related to the keyboard anyway?
Email is hard to do right, first I’m likely going to spend 2-3x the price on a server, so instantly we have 5 years of subscription covered by that price.

Then I have to buy an IP in a space that has a good reputation. Then I need to setup offsite backups, setup TLS and DKIM, plus a lot of stuff I’m sure I’m missing. Then I have to stay on top of patches and general maintenance. Plus I have to buy a domain name. Suddenly we’re looking at let’s say a 10 year lifespan before you need to upgrade. You are probably going to be basically even on costs but home built has a hundred of hours sunk into it too.

I'm not 100% sure whether or not you're attributing the right physicist here ;).

Max Planck wrote about quantized energy emissions from black bodies first in 1900. With this assumption, the spectrum of black body radiation could be derived successfully. That won him the Nobel Price in 1919. Albert Einstein postulated that light itself was quantized in one of his famous series of papers in 1905. This paper won him the Nobel Price in 1922.

[Side note: confusingly, Max Planck was awarded the 1918 Nobel Price and Albert Einstein was awarded the 1921 Nobel Price. This happened because the committee decided in 1918 and again in 1921 that none of the candidates met their standards and withheld the price for later.]
Think of it from Google's POV. Imagine if the tabloids found out about a situation of someone searching for 'fat' in the search bar and then it coming back with pictures of themselves or their friends - that could cause some serious controversy.

> populist leaders have done since time immemorial is to rally large crowds by tapping into their desires

Isn't this what ALL politicians do? How do you know your side is not manipulating the masses... is it the tone or the choice of words? And to what lengths are you willing to go in order to "save" the country, when roughly half of the population voted in that direction?

The risk exists on both sides -- the populists, and those who despise and see the populist as a threat and will go to ANY length in order to prevent them from gaining power. I think that those fighting against it can be blinded by their righteousness, creating an even greater risk of totalitarianism, in the name of preventing history from repeating.

At the end of day, it's just politics, except one side is willing to remove all reservations in the name of "saving" the country. I am not convinced Trump was the threat he was meant out to be. He has been around for decades in the public eye, appearing on TV, even on CNN multiple times, yet he became a monster the moment he decided to run for office. That's a bit suspicious. Then it seemed everyone jumped on board without questioning what the mainstream media was selling, never looking back as to whether it was true or not (e.g. Russia interference was admittedly overblown and a LIE).
It's actually the first thing I do because the chances of the lost pet allowing you to approach are usually not great. This gives me a better chance of getting a good shot or two I can post on Nextdoor.

While I do have many questions, which would definitely delay an impulse buy, it is of general interest to have more companies trying to create easy to use products that help people to cut the cord with 5 companies that rules our digital lives today.

- How to ensure the hardware is not chipped with some low level spyware?

- Can we install stuff on this machine? How is the upgrade process working? Do we have root on the machine if need be?
There is no way YouTube could work without a recommendation system. The volume is so huge you would get lost in the middle of videos of kids posting gameplay sessions for their friends.

You can get good recommendation, but you have to let YouTube track you, if you are the kind with no account and block every tracker, you will get the stuff that is the most generic and gets the most clicks, because that's the default. It is good if you want to do a sociological study, but it is unlikely to match your tastes because the algorithm doesn't know your tastes.

I guess that if you really don't like the YouTube recommendation system, you can add a few rules to your favorite ad blocker, the tag ids are not obfuscated.

The data is encrypted once it leaves your device.

As I said, it is legal, but strikes me as unnecessarily unfriendly. It is likely that I have unrealistic expectations, but putting their modified source code on some "archived" GitHub or similar would have been easy and free. Looking around at Purism, Pine, and remarkable, they don't make it that easy either, so I guess my complaint shouldn't be directed at Helm specifically.

My point is that we're not in 1997 anymore (date this GNU document was written), and thus I cannot believe that mailing disks is the easy way to do this. They are making this deliberately difficult, for both them and their users, by doing this over mail.

As for discouraging companies to deal with GPL, I am with you. I think this is a little bit different though, as they are not adding much value on top of the open-source code...
My understanding is that the customers would be allowed to distribute/modify the source at that point though so you're not really getting around the GPL.
Hi there - co-founder/CEO of Helm here.

We don't make the subscription optional at this time because the overwhelming majority of people on the Internet do not have a static IP address with a corresponding PTR record, which is required if you want to have deliverable email. There are other ways to handle domain registration, DNS and backups on your own, but we believe the subscription is a pretty great value for the convenience it provides.
The people that don't like him don't enjoy any books. They just enjoy "getting stuff done." That's really what I find when talking to people about why they don't like concepts that he introduces. They have no alternative, they just don't like people who come across as dogmatic.
At the very least, juvenile victims of sexual assault are more likely to become adult perpetrators.

TL:DR; the back button works fine as long as front-end developers don't tamper with it at the behest of suits from marketing.

Hi there - Helm co-founder/CEO here. We will have additional tiers of subscription for customers to back up additional data with us. Everything is locally compressed before uploading and all backups are encrypted with keys only customers have.
> There shouldn’t be on-call burnout with the above because you have agency to improve the problems.

I've never seen a situation where management felt people needed to "feel the pain" and gave true agency to the developers. Lip service agency like, "You can put the issue into the backlog." But never true agency permitting the developers to reprioritize to fix the fundamental architectural issues causing the bulk of problems (often by developers who'd left the company or advanced into management and were no longer on call).

No, the GPL covers this case. In the FAQ linked in the parent comment, check out the "High or low fees, and the GNU GPL" section.

In particular, section 6(b) of GPLv3:

> Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.

even if you don’t rely on ads, having more views will always be desirable. netflix optimizes as much for playtime as youtube does because the more someone uses it, the less likely they’ll cancel it.

The two examples you chose, demonstrate the opposite of your point.

One is a subscription service, meaning they aren't reliant on their advertising for most of the finances.

The other is a quasi-govt entity, whose funding comes substantially from a tv license fee.

My wife said she had savings before she met me. Apparently I have a very dominating personality. She owned her house outright which we sold so we could put a down payment on a much larger house.

Her and I have been talking today and I think having her approve purchases could help. I’m nervous about giving up control like that though, and thinking about it more I definitely get pleasure in buying new gadgets. But I need to trust her that she has my best interests in mind (which she does, but it’s hard to convince some part of me deep down of that).
That’s right. I never said sodium is bad for you. Excess sodium is.
As this tutorial introduces the spectral clustering method that uses a similarity matrix between objects, I believe graph clustering methods are also worth mentioning. When I was investigating this topic, I released an implementation of a very efficient randomized clustering algorithm for graphs called Chinese Whispers: https://github.com/nlpub/chinese-whispers-python. Since it does not use matrices internally, it allows handling very large NetworkX graphs.
Fair point. I think this is cared for as all hospitals have backup power supplies and those supplies must be relied on. Last time I was in the hospital I saw red power outlets in the wall. I asked the nurse and she told me the red ones are hooked up to the emergency backup power.

Lisp has a lot of functions for working with linked lists, which do double duty as functions for working with parsed code. But optimized Lisp tends to use structs and arrays and hashtables and avoids creating a lot of lists at runtime.
What killed it was more the effectiveness of Tomasulo style out of order machinery, and the real problem not being control hazards, but data hazards. DEE was thought of in a day where memory was about as fast as the processor. That's why it's always being compared with cores like R3000.

> so maybe it’s normal to immediately record anything out of the ordinary?

It does does seem to be fairly normal today. I once witnessed a woman struck by a car on a busy street. It was shocking to see how many people had their phones out and were filming the poor woman on the ground. There was thankfully some people trying to contact an ambulance and assist her.

Likewise I'm always amazed how many videos there are on the news from kids in locked down classrooms during school shootings. It's a different situation obviously since they're filming their own suffering as opposed to someone else's but it's still surprising to me.
Yes, that's probably what was always my problem.

Theory is one thing, but actual programming languages are something different. An "impure" mix.

So, when people told my language X is imperative and language Y is declarative, I got confused, because they often had parts of both.

The chart I saw showed that masks are somewhat effective for ingress and somewhat effective for egress contamination. When both parties are wearing the mask, and are social distancing, etc, the effectiveness goes up considerably.

The only singular control that works in a vacuum is a vacuum. So unless you are working in a vacuum, you need to stack controls in your favour. Just like you do in every other situation in life.

I've only ever seen them saying problems with school environments amount to a lack of good air circulation with people breathing the same air in and out amongst themselves for hours at a time. That's exactly what the CDC and everyone else has said to avoid doing, and why the phone apps rate 15 minutes of close proximity as enough exposure to warrant a test.

Just like with rubbing alcohol, time and amount have to be taken into account. Water will put out nearly any household fire. But only if other controls accompany it, and there is enough of that water for enough time to have the desired effect.

She took her mask off to read. They were all in that contaminated environment for most of the day. There is every reason to expect infections in such an environment.
So I guess there is more to the question that I'm asking.

> Our accuracy will not match that offered by services who index your data on their servers. But there's a trade off between user experience and privacy here,

I think most people here understand that[0]. We are on Hacker News after all and not Reddit or a more general public place. The concern isn't that you are worse. The concern is that your product has to advance and get better over time. That mechanism is unclear and potentially concerning. The answer to this is the answer to how you ensure continued privacy.

You talk about the "push files/thumbnails for indexing" and this is what is most concerning to me and at the heart of my original question. How are you collecting those photos for _your_ training set? Obviously this isn't just ImageNet (dear god I hope not). Are you creating your own JFT-300M? Where are those photos being sourced from? What's the bias in that dataset? Obviously there are questions about the model too (CNNs and Transformers have different types of biases and see images differently). But that's a bigger question of training methods and that gets complicated and nuanced fast. Obviously we know there is going to be some distillation going on.

There's a lot of concerns here and questions that won't really get asked of people that aren't pushing privacy based apps. But the biggest question is how you get feedback into your model and improve it. Non-privacy preserving apps are easier in this respect because you know what (real world) examples you're failing on. But privacy preserving methods don't have this feedback mechanism. We know homomorphic encryption isn't there yet and we know there are concerns with federated learning (images can be recreated from gradients). So the question is: how are you going to improve your model in a privacy preserving method?

[0] I think people also understand that on device NNs are going to be worse than server side NNs since there's a huge difference in the number of parameters and throughput between these and phone hardware can only do so much.

> Their customers have a right to receive a copy of the source. But the company is not obliged to host an online accessible version of it.

While true, this is misleading - if distributing under the "Written offer" term (rather than including the source code alongside the binaries), everyone has a right to receive a copy of the source.
Thank you.

But quotes from your own source:

While a history of sexual victimization seems to be one of the risk factors that predispose an individual to commit sexual assault, it does not provide sufficient explanation for most instances of this type of assault.
There is relatively little evidence that the victim-to-perpetrator cycle is a major factor in sexual assault.

These boys should be protected from being raped because they shouldn't be raped. Period.
Women and men are different and in many cases men will not feel raped but rather that they "scored" with the warden. We need to focus on cases when men actually get raped by wardens or other inmates rather than trying to prove some false feminist talking points.
Since that’s impossible for you to back up, I question why you would say it.
Rationally speaking

I am sure that the owners and managers of Discord are also Discord users themselves, so I don't see any difference here.

> The 8h workday is established minimum standard across industries for over a century now
An 8-hour workday does not rule out employees working shifts so that customers don't have to take a day off to interact with the company.

My point is that, contrary to OP's assumption, the interests of workers and customers are often at odds with each other. Another example would be when more employees are needed to meet increased demand, but the employees do not want their votes and wages to be diluted by the new hires.
Thanks for the feedback. I hope you enjoy the rest of it as well.
