'"It is such a more nuanced issue involving other things like agriculture and transport.”'

Hah, that's good. It IS nuanced, or rather, not a simple matter, but it seems that unless you personally feel the threat of getting cut off from the gravy train, you are likely to toss around simplistic slogans which environmentalists and "green politicians" are notorious for. But it's likely that in the latter case, this is just pandering, like the whole "tax the rich" theater.

It will be very interesting to watch what Norway does, and telling. The proof will be in the pudding.
They also have the power to acquire anything new showing up, which is exactly what happened in the last ten years. I can't explain their end game as it doesn't make sense to me, but what Berlin needs is not more units, but rather more units that are affordable to non-speculators.

Good? Python 3 stewardship has been absolutely abysmal for a long time. Maybe we'll even get major additions that aren't completely overshadowed by third party reimplementations.
I'm talking mobile homes and an area with an average home value of under $100k. One of the big selling points of metal roofing here is durability, i can point to another neighbor (3mi down the road) whose house was built sometime in the 30s but is now a more valuable redneck shotgun shack because of the (burgundy) metal roof. Edit: come to think of it, it may have been tin roofing originally; it had been shingled before the metal tho.

It sounds like your area is one where the location and the market determine value far more than anything on the land, so treat it as "build to suit" commercial property and assume anything built on it is disposable.

Thank you so much Joshua for taking the time to write this! This is amazing advice! I will take some time to digest it and get back with questions once they come up.

It's also amongst the most affordable old 8-bit choices on eBay. I'm not sure why.
Investors who do not rent out locally - including those renting out to tourists, those keeping empty homes for occasional vacation use, those keeping empty homes because they're playing financial shenanigans (moving money offshore, money laundering, keeping some properties empty to prevent depressing rents from nearby properties). Probably some other groups I'm not even aware of.

Point being, it's not true that all supply of homes ends up being used by people to live in. A lot stay empty most, or all, of the time. People owning those tend to have more money than locals looking for a place to live, so the latter get priced out.
There's something deeply ironic about asking this question on a forum where answers are sorted by votes.

Vacancy rates are extremely low. That puts an upper limit on the amount of people that could be doing that. Is it not easy to tell if a home is vacant?
The South should have been allowed to secede from the Union.

For me it's the other way around. I mean, it's like one of the few commands which says what it does: re-base. Makes all kind of sense to me: take what you have and put it on top of something else.

Merge on the other hand I understand as well but it leads to graphs I can't understand without spending some time looking at.

Bojack Horseman Season 7: Here’s Why Netflix Has Canceled It?
Not picking on you specifically, just curious: the first time you [thought you] heard "this is a great Segway into the next topic", didn't it sound strange or unusual to you? Weren't you curious enough to google it, which would have led to the correct version?

I think this is what gets me when people use "Segway" or "per say". It suggests a certain lack of curiosity, an attitude of "I have no idea what this means, it doesn't make sense, but I'm going to use it confidently anyway". It also suggests that the speaker doesn't read serious works (otherwise they wouldn't use the mangled spellings).

(As an aside: I recently read something about "wearing a Guy Fox mask". Took me a second to get it, and it was almost physically painful when I did)

The A-10 was originally designed as a CAS and tank killer for the invasion of western europe by eastern troops and armor. It was never designed to fight against guerillas.

The AF is still running the A-10 because they've not managed to get rid of it yet — not for lack of trying, but because when they try the army suggests taking it off their hands and if there's one thing the AF likes less than CAS, it's the idea of the Army getting fixed-wing units.
Which is correct right? Someone who avoids pork would definitely avoid those.

Believe me, I’ve lived in both individual and corporate owned rentals. I fully agree that the latter are better organized, and economies of scale are real.

But I’d much rather nobody invest in housing, and governments handle scaled affordable housing - so that there’s accountability and no profit motive.

"It might affect our own climate budget, but it’s not going to make a difference globally,"

"an end to Norwegian production would have a net negative effect on global emissions. Demand would stay the same, and cleaner Norwegian production would be replaced by other countries with higher emissions"

While these things might well be true, there is a distinct and corrosive 'hypocrisy factor' in Norway shifting it's society to sustainable energy, all paid for by continuing fossil fuel exports to the rest of the world.

Norway could prove it's green leadership credentials, and send a very clear rallying message to the rest of the world, by starting to shut down this industry, perhaps redirecting it to deep geothermal, etc.

Many of us are curious to see how the pandemic and its aftermath will affect corporate politics and policies, not just at Apple but in other workplaces as well. It's tempting to draw general conclusions based on anecdotal, one-sided accounts of injustice and retribution. Perhaps there is also a bit of schadenfreude at work here.
> the CI system basically had admin access over our infrastructure. It has to in order to do infrastructure as code.

> Public CIs are fine though. Ones that literally only do code builds, tests etc

I couldn't agree more.

Even internally, the security and authorization needs of deployment/release are wildly higher than those for running an ephemeral build and test. "CI/CD" needs to be un-bundled, for the sake of security, such that CI doesn't have admin access over infrastructure. Only a much more limited CD has this access.

In the case of open core products that use public facing CI, I'm inclined to put the average employee's CI on the public system; for transparency, but also to make sure external contributors don't become second class citizens using an irregular workflow/toolset. Maintain a separate internal release system limited to trusted employees. Principle of least privilege, and all that. :)
It's because we started giving people senior titles at 6 months or a year of experience. I'm not saying there's a clock running until you can call yourself senior, but if you're doing it with less than 6-8 years of experience it should absolutely make people's eyebrows go up. How many projects can you really work on ideation, design, development, deployment, short-term maintenance and long-term maintenance in 2 years?

Just because the JS framework you're working with is 3 years old doesn't make you a senior because you have 2.5 years of experience with it. There's a lot more to the job than that.
Yes, and those policies are not evenly applied. That's the issue. iirc Twitter caught some flak for initially justifying the suppression of the story based on the fact that it had come from "hacking" the laptop, and then only let up after it was pointed out that there were many other examples of stories like this that were not suppressed.
Speculators as an aggregate voting block want less supply. This might seem counter intuitive since it is simultaneously true that a new development is an investment opportunity.

What we need is more units. The affordability to non-speculators follows from that, which is just supply and demand playing out. If you double supply via high rise apartments, the value is guaranteed to drop significantly. Increasing supply by removing regulations around apartment construction also reduces the incentive to buy to invest. Who would want to invest when the supply is liable to increase?

Why exactly?

This is a technology site, the way these voice assistant works has been posted numerous times and is common knowledge at this point. They've been ripped apart by multiple security pros. Yet every thread we get unjustified replies like this. It is tiresome and frustrating.

But I'll post it once again:

- Wake phase detection is all handled locally (i.e. on device).

- It loops a continuous recording over itself. If no phase is detected within a few seconds the recording is permanently lost.

- We can see from data monitoring it isn't continuously transmitting (and that's also what the companies behind it claim).

- "It could be modified" is a red herring. You are already carrying ON YOUR PERSON an always connected microphone with not one by two layers of operating system on it (baseband + consumer OS).

It should not be popular to post "photographs can steal your soul"-levels of tech-spiracy on a site like this, but yet here we are again.
I'm a little confused by your comment. The glasses pictured in the article look like a pretty standard pair of modern Wayfarers.
Your consciousness example only works backwards: you can create ten copies of yourself, and they all will have a merry good time and think they're you. But how would that affect the conscious you? Not at all.

You can give your car (your memories) to someone else, but that doesn't imply that you're the one to enjoy it/them.

How would your model work if you created ten copies? Would you be a hive mind? Now you teleport one of those, how many people do you have to kill before your postulated magical mind jump occurs? And how does it know where to jump to?

The simplest answer, that resolves all paradoxes is: it doesn't have to because it doesn't jump.
Meanwhile, every time I’ve rented from a corporation the property management has been evasive and incompetent, punting issues down the road and fixing issues with as little effort as possible (often leading to lasting damage and more expensive repairs down the road). All of the private owners I’ve rented from have been incredibly helpful, quick to deal with issues, and willing to flex on move-in/out dates, month-to-month terms, etc.

Sometimes it’s about the personal touch, not “economies of scale.”
It isn’t overly expensive. Most insurances will cover it, but if they don’t it’s about $100 to 200.

I created Cogmint.com ("cognition minting") to solve this problem for myself.

You can submit known correct answers for questions, and those questions are then used as ground truth to score worker accuracy. Workers are then scored on their similarity to known correct answers and other workers that have accurately answered questions. It works surprisingly well for how simple it is. It's been a fun challenge to create simple methods of scoring similarity across different task types.

It's a side project, so don't rely on it for mission critical things, but I rely on it for some production tasks, so it's stable.

It currently supports classification (choose from a set of possible answers) and has beta support for bounding box task types. String input task types are coming very soon.

I'd love to see if it can help you out, I'll waive the fees: I'm not in it for the money I just like making things useful and reliable. Reach out and say hi!

Know your history:

Both the Korean war and the Vietnam war were a reply to Communist invasions, so China was at fault.

The Gulf war was a reply to Hussein occupying Kuwait and attempting to occupy the entire Middle East.

The early AFGHANISTAN war was a reply to Al Qaeda.

The Iraq war was to finish the hunt for Hussein.

Except for the last war, there was no choice.

I study war, and countering Communist provocations is a valid reason for the actions the US has taken since 1945. The real question is why Marxists can't admit that.

The premise is already wrong. Any kind of copy mechanism will be imperfect. Even if we just consider classical physics (which is obviously a very coarse approximation), there is no mechanism that could scan every atom of your body at precisely the same time. Invariably, there will be an intervall ("all atoms have been scanned between t0 and t1"). Now relatively basic math tells us that the development of a complex dynamic system can change arbitrarily with small changes in the starting parameters. Maybe there could be an argument about the statistical behavior of the system (for instance, it is very unlikely that the copy would immediately lose an arm or a leg), but the state of mind would definitely not be identical.
If a working career is 35-40 years, and most people will be ICs or low-level management for their entire career (meaning, most people won't ever be a Director or VP of anything), it seems unlikely that you can reasonably be considered "senior" after having completed about 10% of your career unless it's a transient thing.
Thanks!

Calling out to JS modules is still a bit of an open question. I'm actually leaning towards not allowing that (there's an escape-hatch for the internal library, but I was thinking about keeping that internal), because as you say it can throw a wrench into the guarantees made by the semantics. On the other hand, Rust has unsafe { } and its assurances remain useful even though they can technically be broken. So we'll see.

I think a much more tractable goal is allowing third-party JS to import and call Bagel code (vs the other way around). That way Bagel can still make its guarantees for its own section of the universe. Though I guess that could still open you up to problems if you, say, passed an impure lambda to a pure function which then called it.

Anyway right now I'm still waffling on these particular questions, though I also have so much more work left to do that I won't be forced to make a decision on this for quite some time :)

For a start your Amazing American services have expanded globally; Amazon now takes a cut on (make up a very massive number) of transactions all over the world.
Yesterday I had an Amazon delivery, my wife had an Amazon delivery, our next door neighbours had an Amazon delivery.
I ordered Amazon fresh when I woke up for some groceries I forgot about; and they were delivered two hours later.
I am lucky to get a delivery slot in a weeks time from most locally created services.
So American business is really thriving, it is just America itself that is in a hopeless mess.
I found a lot of this very relatable, but from the sound of it, Adm. Rickover built organizations which are structured around him, rather than creating "more Rickovers" which provide some delegation. This kind of organization is not for everyone, definitely not for people who'd like to grow in their capability and responsibility. I think it have worked better during Rickover's times than today, as people's expectations of their careers have shifted. This also applies to keeping people in the same role indefinitely, which simply won't fly in many companies and societies today.

Managing 40 direct reports, each probably (given the scale the US military industrial complex operates) representing an operation of tens to hundreds more is not just difficult from a time management perspective; you're going to need to context switch between so many disciplines and activities that your head would spin.

Finally, your "bus factor" with a central manager like that would be through the roof.

Still the parts about ownership, accountability and details are all very true.
>The copies will have the same memories, and thus think they are the original

I don't determine whether I am me by cataloging my observable characteristics.

If I was only the sum of my observable characteristics, there wouldn't be any "me" to evaluate them.

Also, I am not aware of all my memories in one timeless moment. Remembering things is a process. e.g. Proust and his madeleines.

People can be, sometimes are, disoriented when they wake up. Part of it can be remnants of dreams, part of it is just that sometimes threads of memory need to be gathered somehow.
