We're looking to make timeseries AI easier for developers to integrate into their applications by providing tooling and patterns that are familiar to them. We're a group of devs that were looking to add intelligence to one of our projects, but struggling with existing tooling. We wanted to use patterns that were more familiar to us as devs, like a quick debugging loop, easily consumed packages, etc.
Indie game developers do seem like a group who wouldn't take kindly to being told they can't do what they want with their own computer.
Yes, it needs a quick start somewhere.

This looks really neat! It supports a bunch of different query types, and can even do things like follow links to get info about the linked-to pages!

It's also in nixpkgs, though for some reason the nixpkgs derivation is marked as linux-only (i.e. not Darwin). (Edit: probably because the fpc dependency is also Linux-only, with a linux-specific patch and a comment suggesting that supporting other platforms would require adding per-platform patches)
It’s no different than USA or China or Australia and many other countries. Agencies regularly do surveillance on the citizens of their own country. It’s just about public perceptions and some small outrage when people found out. The only danger in this is that if one lives in China they are aware of it, in many countries they are still under the illusion they are not surveilled.

In India given its size and meagre budget and a country struggling to feed its population (recently there is again an increase in poverty, hunger and decrease in GDP [0]) privacy isn’t viewed as important, even though in law it’s declared as fundamental.

Laws written in books are not important. How they are implemented on ground and what is done to correct the injustice is more important. In Indian context authorities can arrest anyone on flimsy charge and there are no repercussions for wrongful arrest or taking persons right to life and livelihood for authorities and persons responsible.

All this debates on surveillance will be put under the rug with a big hammer of national security soon.

At least you all admit that college is a scam considering you don't hire people based on skill and education.

I have never had a job in tech because I have no idea how to communicate skill and passion outside of being good at cramming and faking my knowledge. Since I won't do that, I will most likely never get a job.

What a waste of time
Apple isn't great at building low-value-add products. They shy away from these. TVs are a prime example where they can't add value beyond an AppleTV set top box.

- The set top box works with any TV and it's one SKU. The number of sizes/screen quality/prices that people would require from a TV is so not apple's MO. As much as apple loves integration, they'd prefer a one-SKU device more.

- Airplay is value, but they haven't really added to it lately. The existing AppleTV already does it, and so do 3rd party tvs.

- TVs are very low margin, and they don't own screen manufacturing so they're likely not able to take outsized profits from the market.

Regarding the Car
- Its an open question if they're still doing it, but maybe like the TV, they shouldn't wont...

- They want to control the software and GUI and that's done now. Unless they want to control the car itself (eg. doors, alarms, etc. or self-driving) they don't need deeper integration.

- Cars are very complex, even for apple standards - and not complex in the way apple is familiar with. They have no experience building or differentiating in this industry (like screens wrt to TVs but 1000x less experience).

- CarPlay added tremendous value, and most cars have it now. Deeper integration of the phone as the brains makes sense. But does anything else?
That's essentially the point of that essay. That, and most of those boxes you want ticked are artificial means of whittling down candidates and not hard criteria for whether someone can do a job.
No, I mean unhindered capitalism, capitalism being a real political economy rather than the impossible to define purely economical conception of capitalism. Capitalism is not just an economic system, it has necessary political implication, such as a strong state, an active police force, a class system, etc...
Oh, if only I could outright kill all sports channels and sports content.

Or at least permanently hide all sports-related content on all devices I own.

I pay for the Hulu+/Disney+ combo that does not include ESPN, because I don’t want to pay for ESPN. Even if that triple combo was cheaper, I’d still pay for the combo that doesn’t include ESPN.
This is all great, but let's stick to definitions when discussing if a country matches one or not. Either disagree with the definition and give your alternative, or disagree with checkpoints in the current one.
Auto makers and others are part of the problems with forecasted demand, but there are also larger supply chain issues. Basically every part of the industry, going back to raw materials, is having similar shortages; either because people shut down for COVID or because they, too, underestimated demand during the pandemic.
Here are some ideas: Proactive compensation, an apology letter, hosting an AMA live stream, and a postmortem on how this misleading messaging made it out in the first place.
Me too. I remember using Gparted back in Ubuntu Ibex day (looking at the year, 2008ish). Usually OS come with gparted package or it is available via package manager back then.
> If there has been talk of cars and tvs for so long, chances are they will make their way out the door at some point.

I've never heard any rumors after maybe 2010 of an apple TV product that isn't a set top box.

Oh yeah, this too. Though for the last 6 years, I've used Android phones with the fingerprint scanner on the back. Face ID doesn't require a conscious action from me (placing a finger on the scanner) to unlock, this just doesn't feel right. Besides, faces change over time so it must have weaker thresholds, and I'm not convinced they're sufficiently unique.
> Small businesses have notoriously high rates of failure (...) Yet they get treated like evil "fat cats" (...)

A small business can still be exploiting workers with abusive labour and business practices.

If your business model relies on working your employees to death while paying close to nothing then, regardless it's a golden goose or a money pit, then you have no right to complain that you're being held accountable for exploiting and abusing workers. Moreso, you have absolutely no right to complain that the job market rejects your exploitation.
where’s the interactive version?
Your pattern is quite powerful: get data from several sources and do the rearranging on the client (which might be a web server), instead of multiple interactions for each data item.

For SQL you can also do a stored procedure. Sometimes that works well if you are good at your DBMS's procedure language and the schema is good.
Considering the doctrine of claim differentiation, your hypothetical could still be infringing Claim 1. You’d have to consider the spec, among other things, to persuasively argue one way or the other.

Show HN: Multiobjective Large-Scale Fashion Dataset with Distributional Shifts
Google and Facebook have more money than they know what to do with.
I have no general opinion about Odysee/LBRY, except that I expect it to fair as well as every other blockchain buzzword bingo social thing and every other YouTube compete, which is to say, I expect it to never gain traction in any sizable way (I would certainly never choose it as a way to build my video audience), but if the argument against Odysee is that it is too permissive of what content it allows (and the line seems to be stuff that is maybe trashy and not like, beheadings), I have to think most of the potential users/creators see that as a good thing.

Like, if the worst thing you can say about it is that a guy that refuses to say “damn” or “shit” or “fuck,” is morally offended by some of the legal content, I’m not sure that will matter to people who are looking for a platform that won’t kick people off the platform for arbitrary reasons.
I'm not really sure how to re-state any clearer -- just try to follow the math -- but my underlying claim was that "differences in distribution don't tell you anything about individuals" misses the point: yes, of course differences in distributions don't tell you about a given individua. I'm saying observed differences in winners don't provide very strong evidence for _differences in distributions_.

There are several issues: winning reveals the maximum of the distribution, not the mean or sd. An observed pattern of one country winning might reflect different distributional means. It might reflect same means and different standard deviations. It might reflect that the number of observations is larger and thus the probability of an outlier at a certain number of sd above the mean is higher. But beyond that, there are also obvious non-genetic processes that even in a toy distribution can produce a winning country that has lower genetic capability. The entire enterprise of saying "Kenyans win running, so Kenyans are more genetically talented at running" is unsupported.
They need predictable revenue GROWTH, not just predictable revenue.

Because if you’re not growing, then you’re dead. And no one wants to be dead.

This is the fallacy that all big companies seem to fall into, because they try to keep chasing the kind of growth numbers they had when they were small, but of course they can’t possibly sustain that level of growth.
Well, you're the first person I've encountered who has said that the well-known and oft-quoted bit of his work that I even provided a link to in wikipedia with quotes taken directly from is completely false in all regards.

You followed that up with a command to read more of his work without narrowing down out from which of his 25 books would provide any context to back your assertion up.

I just want a little more context than a single sentence from some person on the internet to re-evaluate my hypothesis. That shouldn't be too much to ask. Especially since you're asserting that you know more about the subject than the people who authored the Wikipedia page and every person who has written an article about it.
> You can always host it yourself. Are you unable to purchase a computer or rent a static IP address?

I'm starting to think that can't be counted on as a viable option. It's one thing to deny someone access to a particular platform (e.g. Facebook), it's quite another to deny access to basic infrastructure services (e.g. DNS) for something that isn't actually illegal. The former should not utility-like access rules, but the latter probably should.

I enjoyed this article, and I’m sorry for focusing on such a small thing, but can anyone explain the need to signal having attended Recurse Centre at the end?

> Thank you to everyone who provided valuable feedback on earlier drafts of this post, many of whom are Recursers.

I’ve noticed a few instances of people really drawing attention to having attended, and it always seems a bit awkward to me. Like, if I attended Cambridge and put “thanks to those who reviewed this most, many of whom are fellow Cambridge grads”, it would certainly come across as fairly pompous. I really don’t mean to put down the author, I just don’t understand the motivation for this kind of thing if not to boast, or signal some kind of social status.

Are alumni encouraged to advertise RC wherever possible? Or is it really that life-changing that everyone who’s been wants to share it with the world?
Why does where it was written matter? Saying that it being written in the footnotes invalidates the argument is the logical fallacy of poisoning the well.

You would actually need to refute the argument directly for your assertion to have any weight to it.
Which has nothing to do with the methods of kingdom building addressed above. There is a massive difference between deceitfully contriving information asymmetry between departments and dispassionately directing a company's strategic objectives.

I have a hard time believing that assertion given how this article was written. It's full of ad hominem attacks and naturalistic fallacies. This is not mere punditry.
Note that if you like to keep reference to merge requests and the "commit grouping" that merge commits allow, you may very well use FF-only merges with merge commits. You can then use things like `git log --first-parent` to have sort of high-level "merged MRs" view on your history, which may be useful for some workflows. GitHub's (and GitLab's) history view is pretty bad, but that doesn't mean all history views are so featureless as these Web UIs ;)
I started to add error handling to my shell scripts and often never rewrite them.
Defo agree with the sentiment that you should always be happy (and able) to rewrite a shell scripts, dont let its scope creep.
I don't mind long(ish) shell scripts as long as the program flow is fairly linear. Too many function calls is the smell that makes me rewrite.

I'm not sure why the IEEE's original floating point specs didn't manage to make the NaN "quiet" (position 22) bit be the the leading "sign" bit -- although I'm sure there's a good reason. The NaN vs -NaN distinction is purely representative and has no semantic implications. As opposed to negative infinity or negative zero, for example.

Also worth adding is that NaN comparisons will break catastrophically when using gcc's -ffast-math`.
On software patents, something I've devoted a hell of a lot of time to:

The commenters who mentioned "regulatory capture" and patent trolls are 100% right. But it's much worse than you think: the professional societies (ACM, IEEE) and tech industry management are solidly not in your corner, either. They've invested too much money in the current system.

Let's imagine that GitHub or StackOverflow or some other large developer forum ran a poll: "Are you in favor of abolishing software patents?" What do you think the results would be?

Why don't they ask the question? Unfortunately, they don't want to hear the answer. It might move Congress to actually do something, which they always prefer not to do.

I think I actually addressed your point.

Anyone can sign up with a Fidelity account just as easily as they can sign up with an exchange, to send free USD denominated wires. As for whether counter-parties in ES charge for wire receipts, I don't know! Receiving is generally far less expensive than sending.

I'm sorry, why are we building a system to make being an illegal immigrant easier again? I'm pro-immigration, and an immigrant myself. However, this is a country of laws is it not? Generally speaking I think we should open up immigration much more broadly. However, I also don't think it's a stretch to say if you're here illegally that's a bad thing and we shouldn't make it easier to do that?

As far as I can see you just restated the idea of dividing the world into teams based on race. That isn’t an artifact of the analogy.

That is the basis of racism.

We can accept that a game like this was played, stop playing it, and work to undo the damage without continuing to play the game.

>> A non-racist solution is to support anyone who has been less advantaged in wealth building.

> So socialism, totally agree, in general that is the direction we should move back towards.

No, I don’t view socialism favorably and it’s not implied. Creating institutions or programs that facilitate higher levels of economic participation by those who start with less does not imply socialism.

One bug I've been hitting for a couple of years on Windows 10:

If the computer starts with a working Internet connection, but then you lose Internet, Start Menu search just stops working during net downtime. Meaning I type some app name like "calc" in the Start Menu search box and nothing appears! Which is absolutely ridiculous, I can't search for locally installed apps, or Windows settings. Even if I disabled Cortana and Internet search in the Statt Menu (or maybe because of it?)

And I failed to Google the problem since all the keywords combinations I tried inevitably lead to some article on how to disable Internet search in the Start Menu, so I have no idea if I'm the only one with this bug.

That feature can be oppressive. You can disable it if you log in to the website (you may need to sign out and back in on your streaming device for the setting to take effect).

My guess is that it appeals to the average “turn on the TV and watch whatever is on” consumer, and Netflix probably prioritizes retaining them.
I suspect it has a lot more to do with failing to properly forecast in general, whether overestimation or underestimation. Supply chains are finely tuned for life as usual and they take a long time to recalibrate.
