>In my experience, it depends on the group. It seems conservatives are more likely to defend the idea of IQ differences among racial groups, but also more likely to reject the studies showing that liberals tend to have higher IQ's than conservatives[1].

This may be true, and a perfectly fair point ... but it does not actually prove the argument wrong, it simply points out that groups are susceptible to motivated reasoning. ie, there are some measurable IQ differences among groups which may be related to genetics, and this point is not invalidated because different people supporting it or criticizing it are hypocrites.
I think almost every company is a tech company in some ways. Tech enables them and has moved on from a concept of being a cost center to revenue enabler. Also tech resources are likely the most expensive resources as well.

Your snark isn't warranted. The Wiki article you yourself cited says where Popper introduced the concept and even speaks about what his limitations were.

I will let you read that again to find them, rather than providing a quote.
The lowest common denominator I had to deal with were some quite expensive, for the hardware, Arris devices. Roughly 10 times slower than a 2 core skylake and similar. I wish I was joking. As you say, people have no idea what slow is until they have to code for these.

I've played with some fairly decent machines as well. Quite a bit faster and cheaper but you can't just magically replacement millions of devices every time something new comes along
Animal Farm itself was written in 1943-44.

The essay I linked to was written in 1945 - if you read it, it actually talks about the ongoing war etc, e.g.:

"... we are allies with the USSR in a war which I want to see won"

It wasn't published until 1972, for exactly the reasons Orwell outlines in it. Indeed, publishing Animal Farm itself was hard enough - many American and British publishers refused to do so, on the ground that the book clearly satirizes the USSR, which was then a war ally.

I don't know if this would make the author more or less happy, but in my experience this isn't just an open source thing. I read the author's bug report, and just off the top of my head, I can think of multiple similar bugs that have been sitting around in my company's Jira for longer. The data analytics space doesn't have a zero-bug culture, so "weird error when using this specific intersection of features" tends to be seen as more of a feature request.
The post talks about inflation but doesn't mention which measure it uses. Hmmm...

Also, the correlation coefficient 0.15 and an R^2 of 0.02. It means it doesn't explain all variance in the inflation but it clearly influences it.

Finally, your last comments sounds like we actually can have a free lunch.
We are on the same page - just pointing out how the system works.

It is important to point out that the current system is designed to maximize employment.

It's easy to have a bunch of services that are subsidized by the top 10% paying >50% of >25% of low-paid service workers' wages (through income tax that pays for SNAP, HUD, etc).

Since people are dependent on income for a living - if demand for services drops because the average person is unwilling to pay an extra 25% for services - then these service workers need to be employed elsewhere.

Would there be jobs for them?

Your other option is to just give them money to do nothing - and the average person gets less services.

This doesn't seem ideal for anyone beside the people getting paid to do nothing - who would maybe be 2-3% of the population. And it seems especially unfair for the people who would keep their job - and instead of getting paid to not provide services - they have to actually provide the services!

It’s not that buyers could afford a bit more, buyers could afford essentially to pay double in London.

This isn’t because of the deposit but because HTB essentially allows you to buy a property for double the price in London.

Most people couldn’t afford a 500K property not because they can’t save up £50K but because they won’t have a salary north of £100K for the bank to loan them the rest as lenders cap the loan amount at 4-4.5 times your annual salary.

So now people that earn £50K can buy a property that only people that earn £100-120K could regardless of their deposits.

99% of my incoming work happens in a combination of Slack, an SCM, Zoom and Jira. Maybe 1% of the time I get a task in from email (do this training, etc).

Overall it's a cool idea, but I wasn't able to quickly determine if any/all of those things had support for task import.

Of course, I can just type in the tasks and schedule them that way too.

Can you think of a traditional international transfer service that has better rates for <1k transfer than coinbase (0.5%) ? I could buy LTC or BCH on coinbase and have pennies of transaction fees beyond the exchange fees.

I think the only thing cheaper may be to find some company that allows international wire for very cheap, and that normally requires holding a lot of fiat in the bank.
I should have been somewhat more precise with my wording. The document is generally irrelevant for the purposes of deciding whether or not your product potentially infringes the patent.

Interesting take, because it read to me like he was enumerating SF ideas in an attempt to not repeat them. Avoiding implausibility is a worthy goal for SF - to do otherwise is to write fantasy in science-fiction clothing.
2 weeks would match up with certain snail mail geography especially around the horse/carriage era.

It might be fun/interesting to try to base the latency upon simulated geography: whether the entirely fictional geometry of something like classic GeoCities where you get assigned a random address in a digital "neighborhood" somewhere when you sign up, or use real world geography and filter it through ancient routing restrictions like "how long would it take in the post by horse/carriage".

A benefit to a dynamic latency such as simulated geography would be that it would make it even tougher to sync together how posts would be arriving from multiple users (unless you were targeting a specific user).
Don't forget Loki, or WandaVision for that matter.

I think there's been both qualitative and quantitative changes to American pop culture. Today's audience is able to handle more sophisticated or just convoluted complex narrative structures than in the past. From comic book cinematic universes to Christopher Nolan's gimmicks, we've come along way from straightforward standalone popcorn films. Now even dumb action movies have to be not just a sequel but intertextual, living within a cohesive fictional space. Everyone knows what "canon" refers to and most know common tropes. (Speaking of R&M, that show seems to be an example of running out of tropes to the extent of burning itself out, imploding into bigger and more meaningless reveals.)

That's also because of quantity. We've simply got too much content, across both films but TV shows, games, tie-in novels, comic books, and other media. Merchandising has been huge since the original Star Wars, but now every franchise has a Wiki and dedicated scholars. It's a whole new level of meta. Maybe that's the only way we can handle the scale of content we are bombarded by; to try to fit them together into cohesive contexts.

I don't know what that means for us as a society or as a culture, but I do note that The Matrix, or at least its sequels, helped to accelerate this process. Back in 2003, the series had both the Animatrix animated shorts and the Enter the Matrix video game that added to the story depicted on-screen, even introducing key characters that movie-only viewers would be confused by (such as the Kid).

I would say that dense intertextuality and cross-media world-building, not so much the Gnostic question your reality themes (which are old hat now), is the current defining legacy of The Matrix.

In Spain not much years ago happened a slightly different but related trick. A party changed late their logo in the ballots to a circle. Casually their rivals from the opposite ideology had adopted before a thin circle as a logo in the voting sheets (shared by all parties). The second circle was more thick (and more visible) than the other and had different letters inside. Clearly different for people with a good sight, maybe not so much for elders.

I bet that this didn't helped at the hour of counting the ballots and I wouldn't be surprised to know that a few votes were assigned wrongly that night at the slighest opportunity.

Can you show a quote from somewhere, where "totalitarian" would imply total control? Wikipedia's description of "Totalitarianism" matches state of things in Russia exactly:

- prohibits all opposition parties // check

- outlaws individual opposition to the state // check

- extremely high degree of control over public life // check

- private life // that maybe not, but I am not sure what that means

- political power is often held by autocrats // check

- propaganda is broadcast by state-controlled mass media in order to control the citizenry // check

So the only thing missing is "private life", where I simply can't claim it because I don't understand the requirement.

Usually only a few polling places actually determine an election. Based on historical vote data, you'd only flip votes in the few locations where it actually matters; for example, a few counties in a few swing states, or anywhere where the votes can be cured or recounted without being observed.

It's strange that people really don't realize how easy it is to cheat; just a little bit of leverage in the right place can tip an election.

> Now I have a question: is it possible that things published before the date of the patent (24 march 2020) are infringing on the patent? Or, on the contrary, things published before this date can actually be prior art?

You have to look at the date of filing, not date of publication. The date of filing is June 12, 2018 (patents take a few years to issue these days). So March 9, 2019 cannot be prior art.
Sure, except that there's a race to the bottom; genuinely Free Software will always be cheaper than corporate offerings. The author is not asking for people to compete with e.g. Google and Stripe, but asking for Google and Stripe to deliberately eat the loss when it comes to maintaining free libraries.
It appears to describe a data-oriented component entity system in which all data types within a component are assigned to chunks (batches) in such a way that they can be optimally grouped with data from components of other entities for optimal memory access.
The language used in the descriptions is easy to understand. It reads like standard conversational English.

It is minor, but I would like to see better text layout.

What I think I would really, really want, is integration with VSCode/Sublime/etc. where the interpretations were interleaved within the actual source code and could be folded down. I would like to be able to correlate the source codes lines to the interpretations.
> Hiring is an obvious example, with "requirements" that filter out large chunks of applicants that don't have some kind of back channel

In my experience, it is very tempting to filter for the most qualified candidates, and that should happen. However, there should also be a filter for the most dedicated candidates, as that can also lead to very good outcomes. Many of the best employees don't look that great on paper, but love their jobs, and are very motivated to excel. The same is not always true, at all, for "qualified" people.
Thank you for bringing this to my morbidly obese attention. I am already in love with it.
I have! I ended up having to export my entire general ledger as an excel file for them to have any hope of using it. It cost me a ton of money and time to massage into a format that an accountant could work with, they are too expensive per hour to ask them to learn an entire new software program that I'm the only of their customers to use.

Now I just use quickbooks. I have never had any issue.

Gnucash is great and works fine for personal bookkeeping, but I wouldn't suggest it if you have an accountant.

I’ve recently started down the rabbit hole of building a video player + editor from scratch and this feels so relatable!

Lots of stumbling around, reading scarce and outdated resources, and finding that really not many people have written about this stuff and it’s “easier”/necessary to dive into the source of projects that do similar things. I spent a solid day mapping out how ffplay.c works to try to figure out how to synchronize audio and video properly. I have no background in video but I’m learning as I go, and things are falling into place, and it’s been pretty fun most of the time.

But I definitely resonate with the feeling that, if/when I get this thing working, I won’t really know if it’s “correct”, and I also won’t know how much that affects anything. It’s like one of those infinitely zoomable fractal images, there’s always some higher level of detail than the one you can currently see!
"We are fixing up our Linux and Windows versions for public use.": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28446157
My read (and from what I know of ECS) is that it's basically claiming a system which automatically organizes the memory layouts of instances of different types of "entities" (i.e. "type" meaning which "components" it includes) in an efficient manner.

Here, an "entity" is just an object identifier (integer, or whatever). A "component" is a specific set of data relevant to some function (e.g. position component would have x, y, z floats, while damage level component might be a single float to represent amount of damage).

ECS generally means laying out all memory for all instances of a given component contiguously, so in the example I gave you'd have one array for all position components in your game world, and one array for all damage level components. The "entities" are just collections of these components from these different arrays. So the "player" entity for example is logically composed of one particular element of the position array and one particular element of the damage array. This is more cache friendly when you have a "system" (say, the physics subsystem) which generally only operates on one or a limited set of types of components across many entities.

There is no way ECS in general is patentable but their system which intelligently and automatically performs the memory layouting for their form of ECS (which also includes the notion of chunking these arrays into finite sized blocks) very well might be.

>What I see is that if a difference is indeed found, there can only be two reasons for it: Racism or sexism.

This seems absurd to me. As an example, I figure that the reason that there are more male construction workers than female construction workers is not sexism- it's that men largely have more physical strength and a greater inclination or preference for highly physical and dangerous work than women.

Would you call this sexism? Why should it be the default assumption that men and women have equal preferences to self-select jobs exact equal proportion for each and every profession?

We don't know what jurisdiction this happened in - Belarus, Switzerland, or the USA. I doubt that Switzerland or the USA empower the police to force a private company to put up a bogus service on the internet - especially on behalf of China.

My guess: they were logging IP addresses, at least for SMTP, and the activist was using SMTP.
