I've been thinking something along these lines recently too. A single neuron seems like an absurdly complex device. I doubt they are really similar at all to "artificial neurons" except in some vague abstract sense. So the brain is essentially a network of billions of powerful, hyper-efficient computers (not to mention all the other nerves in the body), whose function, communication protocols, and network topology have been developed for millions of years in such a way that has lead to human intelligence.

And yet it still takes decades to develop a human mind. Even just to become competent with a single language takes years and it requires much more than just learning that language. If we could develop an AI system that hypothetically could achieve human intelligence, could we even train it to that level faster than it takes a human mind to mature? Is there some kind of maximum rate at which the process by which "intelligence"- whatever that may mean exactly- can be reliably run?
Those percentages are per unit time, so your safety can be measured in units of minutes or hours in a risk zone.

By far not going to work is a huge risk mitigation factor for most people (100% effective), which is why it is hard to decouple distancing from poorly worn cotton masks, which is mostly what happens here.
>I agree but that trust was never there.

It largely was but misplaced. Walter Cronkite was never truthful, the Joint Chiefs of Staff rarely had your interest in mind. Public policy has always been people scrabbling for status while feigning morality.
That sounds reasonable? If I'm an end-user, what I'm paying my ISP for is to get me data from Netflix (or youtube or wikipedia or ...); that is the whole point of having an ISP. If that means they need to run extra links to Netflix, then tough; that's what I'm paying them for.
Sorry I misunderstood the fact that you were talking about sending IPs and not randomly generated dns name from cloudflare. My question was does this app use use a custom protocal, and I'd define a pseudo random IP provider over push notifications to be a cudtom prptovol.

This is a nation state suppressing information, I don't see why wholesale blocking services like cloudflare or any of the other possible options would be a non-starter, given it only needs to last for a weekend. There also doesn't appear to be any evidence that this app uses any of these techniques either as far as ive sedn.

I worked on a remote work program for a large company about a decade ago. One of the objectives was to improve retention of female professionals.

Women have two heavy drivers for leaving the workforce - pregnancy/early childhood (age 20-35) and caregiving (45-60). This is a big deal, as when you lose a skilled attorney, engineer, or product manager, it’s difficult to replace them.

Offering work flexibility was projected to reduce this attrition by 30-50% depending on occupational category.
My kid's high school is located in a part of town that is largely warehouses and hotels for business travelers. We joke that it's all just another warehouse with a different inventory.
This is why folks on the right roll their eyes when folks on the left say "trust the science!". What it really means is "trust the TV", which many people on the right are unwilling to do, because the TV spent 4 years calling them all evil racist bigots. Why trust someone that hates you?
This is actually a good point. Amazon is only able to sell that cheap crap because their return policy is so good. Without prime you literally might as well just order the stuff straight from china.

OS map styling is beautiful, but folding maps is the work of devils.

As a long distance through hiker I find paper maps invaluable. They are lighter than a gps and don’t require batteries. They provide a greater perspective than you can experience through a screen — very important when plotting a route (trail info tends to be quite out or date here in the US). I always carry paper maps.

If anything, lifetimes are one key part of Rust where I don't really see how a different syntax would help. The <'a> and &'a syntax is nicely self-contained, but the semantics can be obscure to novices.
The hard part with auto-importing is the resource id. This is usually generated server-side and is not included in the hcl. Often resources define a user-supplied identifier as well, such as a name property, and this could be used for auto-importing if the property has unique constraints applied against it. However, not all resources have this feature, so its not a universal solution.

Running a fleet of RTX3090's on demand does not sound at all complaint with what little I know of NVidia's terms of use. There's surprisingly little allowed uses for these "consumer" cards, if their terms of use are anything like previous generations. Nvidia (& other companies) really wants folks to upgrade to enterprise/data-center class devices.

In the initial model the pen is slanted but parallel to the axis of the sheet, and in the last model it's vertical. Does this change the style of the writing? I think I hold the pen like rotated at 45°. What about that? Have you tried with a ink pen?

What's the difference with an off the shelve pen plotter?
The difference is the granularity. A torrent is like a tar file, it's a big blob of static data that can't be updated. IPFS in contrast works more like a file system, you have a top level directory that points to the content within it. If you want to change something, you just update the top level directory, while all the content within it can stay the same. Each file on IPFS has it's own checksum and can be addressed individually.

IPFS doesn't help much with censorship, as it has all the same issues as torrent in that area. It doesn't help much with privacy either, as it's all rather public. It's really for legitimate uses, not outside-the-law kind of stuff.

The benefit of IPFS is that its granularity makes it much more useful for smaller tasks. For example you can host Git repositories or source trees on there. And since IPFS on Linux can be mounted as a file system, you can just access them with a simple `cd` command, no manual download or extraction needed.
It isn't.

The same things have been happening in financial markets for two centuries. I will say it is remarkable how few people take an interest in looking at this kind of thing. History, particularly in the US, is regarded with derision. Economists believe that nothing in the past could be relevant any more...their expert guidance has moved us to a higher plane of existence...

...and if you look at history, you will see that almost everyone back then thought the exact same thing too (I say almost, when things really went to shit you find that humility tends to last a bit longer...there is zero humility today).

This all applies to personal finance too. All the financial problems that people have are problems of human nature.
"Ten to the fifteen" is also correct, and in my experience more common. It's short for "ten to the power of fifteen", whereas "ten to the fifteenth" is short for "ten to the fifteenth power".
Okay, a slight change to my example: what if instead of a meal at a restaurant, it was the price of broccoli at grocery stores that went up 50%?

> its own way of mistreating children

I am unsurprised that the Minneapolis public school system deploys Gaggle while New York private schools implement no-screen policies.
Freenet as a censorship resistant tool had potential a long time ago, through in my view the failure points had more to do with the design and the positioning in the censorship resistant tool chain than with the unsolved problems. A shared "data store" that shuffles its pieces around was a good idea in theory, but torrents without any privacy did a better job of being a shared data store. Copyright enforcement has been too slow and ineffective to push people into using Freenet.

Tor won over most of the anti-censorship users of Freenet by adding hidden services. The model of servers and clients seemed to be easier to model around than a shared data store, for reason that might have to do with how websites on internet has moved on from the 90's and early 2000s.

I am unsure if the concept of a anonymized and censorship resistant shared data store has a place in the future. If copyright enforcement actually become effective in stopping torrenting, then maybe Freenet will see a renewal (possible as a patch to the torrent protocol). Hopefully without java.
> Or, if you're looking for a social solution, print out thay paragraph, take it to the next meeting of the school board, and demand to know why they want to record your child while they're getting out of the shower. These devices will be in children's bedrooms the majority of the time, and if they can record at any time, with no warning, they will record images that would be considered by many to be very illegal.

yep, this is the solution...

A hallmark of a conspiracy theory is you always have a cartoon villein behind it. In this case the CCP is Dr Evil.

Also will say the approach the conspiracy theorists and foreign policy operatives have taken with this isn't likely to garner any transparency from China going forward. That's bad because fundamentally despite differences the Chinese and the the US have common interests in this.

I would have linked the Principle of Least Power[0], but same idea. Rich certainly fleshes the idea out with more examples and I deeply respect his opinions.

I can't find it but there once was a blog that expressed this as: Reddit is a site where you can talk about anything with the exception of a few banned topics. Voat(might have been another reddit clone?) is a much less popular site where you can talk about anything. What do they talk about on Voat? Only the few topics banned on reddit.

While is strictly more powerful than for, for is strictly more powerful than foreach, foreach is strictly more powerful than map. And yet 95% of the time, the power in map is sufficient. Therefore 95% of the time you should use map. When you encounter a foreach, you should be expecting non-purity. When you encounter a while, you know that it's doing some recursive operation that requires that power.

This let's you reason about it. This allows you to compose these less powerful things.

I think the reasonable question in the lab breakout case is "was the risk assessment used to determine the Biohazard Safety Level the work in the lab was carried out under sufficient, and do we need to change processes to reduce the risk of such a breakout in future (e.g., by increasing the BSL needed for such work)".

That, to me, is the interesting part of the lab breakout case. Are we regularly underestimating the risk of novel viruses in research laboratories?

It's interesting that you didn't say "I wish more conservatives would admit they were wrong", but instead put the onus of action on liberals.

I saw those lawsuits as well, and I was also unable to find a definitive mention of Amazon selling an FBA seller provided item under the "Ships from and sold by Amazon" descriptor. The Daimler lawsuit from 2016 alleges that Amazon did in fact do this, but as far as I can tell that lawsuit didn't go anywhere, so I'm not sure if any evidence was presented.

I did read the FAQ that Amazon provides to sellers[1], but it doesn't definitely say whether Amazon Retail items can be fulfilled by FBA merchants. (Interestingly, it does say that consumable products like cosmetics aren't eligible for virtual tracking, and a lot of the online reports from people are those types of products.)

About 21 million, and I'm crawling myself.

Classification is really hard. I'm struggling with it myself, as a lot of like privacy policies and change logs turns out to share the shape of a page of text.

Right now there is a more effective strategy - just - do - nothing - wait out the exploitative employers until they come begging, and then dictate terms ... just as they used to.

Yes, text to Columns would work well for splitting tasks in a very uniform dataset. However, if you want to extract say Lastname from a column containing names some of which may have middle names (i.e., the dataset is not very uniform), then text to columns would not work correctly.

Also, if you would like to do more than substring extraction, say convert "FirstName LastName" into "f.l." or "lastname, firstname", then Text2Columns won't be sufficient by itself. You would need to do more post-processing or would need a more sophisticated scripting capability.
It seems to me that the “ship it” and “move fast and break things” eng culture of the previous decade or so is slowly giving way to a new culture of “be careful, thoughtful and get it right first time”. Code reviews, once relatively relaxed and informal, now take weeks.

I don’t mind the premise of “think things through before coding”, but I’m a pragmatist and I learn most from doing, and this current mentality is starting to feel stifling.

Whatever happened to “less talk, more action”?

Neal Stephenson's 'Shock' Doctrine
To be fair, AUKUS is more of a reaction towards China invading other countries territorial waters, creating military bases there, and bullying any other boats (who are simply just working within their own countries waters, or just crossing the Sea that China now claims exclusively as theirs).

Apparently for the past three years their vast 'fishing' fleets are also shining green lasers into the cockpits of passing planes and bridges of passing ships at night, to increase the stress and occupational risks heaped upon the shoulders of each captain/pilot of a non-Chinese boat/plane [1]

Let's also not forget their MASSIVE KNEE JERK REACTION to the Australian PM stating that we needed China to cooperate more with the W.H.O. (scientists attempted to follow the normal discovery process investigating the origins of Covid, but were denied access to dated lab samples from the Wuhan lab [2])

China was so insulted (and/or scared?) by these words that their knee-jerk reaction was to cut off billions of dollars of imports arriving from Australia, temporarily decimating some parts of our wine industry, and rock lobster export industry to China [3]

> stop assuming that their IP address has anything to do with their physical location, culture, language, bank account region, home address, telephone prefix or anything else.

The unfortunate truth is that analytics have show that more users have their browsers configured than an IP that doesn't "match" a language that they understand. Very unfortunately but is basically the common case for browser defaults on the internet.

The original mission of replacing JS in the browser failed. At that point they could've called it off. Instead they doubled down with Dart 2.0, which, could've been great if there is actually anything 2.0 about it. It's still just some language with curly braces.

During the same time frame of Dart's existence, other languages that actually have innovative ideas were able to carve out their niches (go, rust, ts, kotlin, swift... list goes on), while Dart still has to rely on some UI toolkit to sell.

Apple is copying well-designed UIs, and even they're getting a lot wrong. The current MacOS design language is insanely wasteful, and as I started to explore other toolkits I also started to realize that a lot of their interactive primitives are also pretty junk: their checkboxes and radial buttons are tiny and unresponsive, most window controls are pointlessly small and inconsistent, and their Big-Sur styled padding makes no sense on a device intended to be used at hi-res. Speak for yourself, but Apple's most profound design statements are in the rearview. Cocoa is bordering on junk these days, and I might even prefer the LAF of GTK3 to modern MacOS. Quite a disappointing fall from grace.

Sorry, I should have elaborated in my initial comment.

I was briefly involved as a developer several years ago (as part of my bachelor's thesis). At that time, it was mostly beta-quality, but it was already in use by multiple professors for grading. I haven't been involved with the project since, so I'm not sure about the current status.

I think the homepage [1], which you linked to and where it mentions that it's still a prototype, is at least somewhat outdated; it has a screenshot of a very old version of the software. At least the 'support' section still looks accurate, though.

If you're interested in using it, I would advise getting in touch via the Mattermost channel or mailing list (both linked to from the homepage [1]) and asking about the current state of the project. Tell them Jamy sent you :)
