One important change: Funds and investors are allowed to buy single family homes starting 2012. That's one reason for the crazy housing market and makes the price to income ratio less useful.

It does not necessarily include a profit margin for the owners, because houses & condos are simultaneously purchased by non-landlords who aren't trying to generate a return- so that's who sets the prices. And in practice real estate attracts the deeply financially unsophisticated, or the wealthy doctor who's willing to take losses for 5+ years for future appreciation.

I mean, there's lots of small restaurant businesses out there, but they don't necessarily generate a real profit or make real financial sense. Some industries just attract irrational or unsophisticated people!

First thing a union does when they enter a workplace is talk about what everyone is paid.

My last job had very strict rules against sharing how much you got paid. There's only 1 reason, they are underpaying someone. They propose that it's to my benefit because they can then pay me more.

Then a coworker got a better job and told everyone how much he was being paid. This angered lots of people because they were being paid much less and did much more.

What blows my mind. Minimum wage is $15/hr and they were getting $24/hr as senior sysadmins with tons of experience. Soon as they decided to get a new job, they got a nice raise near instantly and they were gone. Yet their time was billed out above $100/hr. It was literally the greed of our employer who kept their wages low begging for someone to offer more money and steal them. Such a high risk for minimal benefit in greed.
Which basically means they don't value experience in their own company. What better reason to say sayonara?
> The role of policy in most cases such as this is supposed to be a guide

Sure, so we should be able to see what guidance was followed.

Discretion doesn’t mean policy can be ignored. Discretion would be part of the policy, and we should be able to see what discretion was used to come to these decisions.

I think it depends... where I am now (third from last day), I'm one of the younger devs at 46yo. which is wild to me... about 2/4 of those here older than me have little interest in taking on new approaches or techniques. The other 1/4 absolutely work to stay current. Some are coasting to retirement, others of us don't ever plan to stop.

I will say, my recent stint of interviews over the past 6 weeks or so has been pretty painful. Everyone seems to be going through 6+ interview stages. The reality, even then, I'm not sure they're getting a great signal:noise outcome. Some of the tests are for things that will never be used for those jobs on any given day.

I do miss my 20's when an interview was maybe an hour and a half on an afternoon, and an offer shortly after.

While I agree that the specific hotkey used for the overlay is unfortunate,

> what do I need this overaly for anyway?

The overlay allows you to access a number of functions in games, much like the Xbox overlay. You can turn it off entirely if you don't need it, but otherwise the global hotkey is an integral part of it, because it's the only way to invoke it.

Contrast that with Catalyst Control Center which was a regular windowed application that you usually opened when performing first-time setup and then never needed to fiddle with those settings again. And it had a global hotkey AND a context menu shell extension, which took a couple seconds to load every time you right-clicked the desktop. It was insane. Loosely quoting Raymond Chen - noone ever got promoted for _stopping_ a feature from shipping.
News do not give you an accurate picture of the world. Almost by definition, if something is statistically average (happens all the time) it is not news. So seeing all the murderers on TV makes people think there is more of it going on than if they simply looked at the statistics.

Ari-Pekka makes various plausible-sounding declarations, but he doesn't even try to make a case.

I know that I've had many colleagues that were next to useless - even, possibly, exhibiting negative utility. Let's just give that kind a zero. Then there are novices - smart people with little experience. They can get stuff done, but they need watching. Suppose we give those a 1. And suppose we give an "average" dev, fairly smart, with a lot of experience, a 2. Such a person doesn't need watching, and gets stuff done.

I'd say a zero needs to find more suitable work.

A 1 is worth investing in.

A 2 is most good professional devs.

So what's this x10 fellow? Well, I rate myself as a 2. I'm a journeyman, and I'll never be a master. But the people I've met that I'd rate as "masters" were no more than twice as productive as I was.

I can't imagine a dev that was 10x as productive as a journeyman. I've certainly never met one. Software development is a process of discovering and remedying bugs - from the requirements, through the design, to the implementation. These things take roughly the same amount of time, whether you are a journeyman or a "master". And once you have identified the problem, the solution is usually fairly obvious.

If this notion of a 10x dev is a real thing, then I suspect it arises in people who regard technology as some kind of woo. If you're recruiting a magician, then he'd better be better than any other magician, because you don't know magic.
I won't be donating to them again until they are at least on the verge of bankruptcy. I don't mind having supported them in the past, but I dislike how they frame their donation drives as necessary for them to continue functioning when they could quite easily operate off of the interest of the money they already have for the foreseeable future.

How to keep track and compare dataset versions for every model training run?
Do you want to keep track DATASET VERSIONS for every model training run to reproduce your results and models?

You can now do it with Neptune:

Query the dataset version from previous runs to make sure you are training on the same dataset version

Group your Neptune Runs by the dataset version they were trained on

See if models were trained on the same dataset version

Compare datasets in the Neptune UI to see what changed

There is a little bit of good news here from the omnibuss budget passed at the end of 2020. Search for “NO SURPRISES ACT” on this page:

https://congressionaldish.com/cd227-coronabus-health-care/

“Starting on January 1, 2022, any health insurance company that provides “any benefits” in an emergency department can not require pre-authorization of those services or deny coverage because the emergency department is out of their network. If emergency services are provided out-of-network, there can not be any limits on coverage any more restrictive than what would be covered by an in-network emergency department and the out-of-pocket costs can’t be more than they would be in-network. Out-of-pocket payments at an out-of-network emergency room must count towards in-network deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums.”
Networks are a double edged sword. They're a pain to use (especially for things where network facilities have non-network providers or network providers steer you towards non-network accessory care like labs and what not), but network agreements are also a way that insurers control costs. Forcing insurers to cover every provider means insurers can't exclude overpriced providers.

You’ll need pretty solid justifications to lower salaries. In a case where a bunch of employees realize they’re underpaid, there’s only three natural outcomes:

- lower paid employees don’t get anything, and start looking for a better paying job

- lower paid employees get compensatory raises

- lower paid employees get nothing and the higher paid members are expected to get lower pays. They proceed to leave for greener pastures (and they only need to find at least equal paying jobs to make it worth it)

The scenario where salaries go down and employees don’t do anything is unrealistic.
I assume it's because he's saving his trip to be the "first" something. Something bigger than "first billionaire in space".

That might mean saving it all the way for the Mars trip. But he doesn't seem to feel the need to be spam-in-a-can for a joyride. He's got his sights set far, far higher.

That doesn't explain why he's not also going on for a joyride. Maybe he doesn't want to look like Bezos and Branson, who are just doing it for their egos and with no actual exploration in mind. He wants to be an explorer and pioneer -- which, incidentally, totally surpasses their egos.
The US healthcare system is slowly moving away from the fee-for-service model and towards a value-based care model. Under that model, providers bear much of the financial risk. They might receive a single bundled payment for a joint replacement including all follow-up care, with penalties for failing to meet clinical quality measures. Or they might receive a flat per-patient per-month fee to completely care for people.

Thanks! With the caveat that I profoundly lack depth on both, and am a bit artsy craftsy in my intuitions, I did buy the Maths module precisely because it was an analog computer.

The intent was to create some generative music, and seeing if I could use it to create 1/f noise, and exploring self-similarity using a musical ear instead of in code. Still working on it.

When you look at what you can do with magnets hooked to a synth with a ferrofluid, e.g. https://youtu.be/Q3oItpVa9fs , the sound and your ear helps to develop an sense for what kinds of waves can be used to yield physical effects. If you can functionally suspend and maipulate a ferrofluid with waves, there are likely analogies to laser pulses and electrons for quantum computing. Waves gonna wave, etc.

The other piece that grabbed me recently was "analog fractals," (https://hackaday.com/tag/analog-fractals/ + that rabbit hole) where if you can get those artifacts instantaneously as the effect of physical feedback instead of rendering them computationally, there are likely faster functional approaches to a lot of other problems, only a subset of which we use ASICs and FPGAs to implement today.

It's speculative based on laughably incomplete understandings on my part, but that's hacking.

Congressmembers are not giving their unfiltered opinion in floor (or committee) speeches, they are very conscious of the public eye and are saying what they think they need to be heard saying to achieve their goals.

Firefox's WA backend does streaming compilation (i.e. compiling bytecode directly to machine code while it's still coming off the wire) for Tier 1, right now, by default, today. Afaik, WA is the first mainstream vm isa that it's even possible to do this. Do you know of any other VM that can compile its bytecode in one pass that is on by default? I'm genuinely interested. https://wingolog.org/archives/2020/03/25/firefoxs-low-latenc...

But this whole discussion is out of scope for your use-case. If it's For Fun (tm) that's one thing, but (presumably) this is a practical integration into an existing language. Why are you implementing a VM instead of integrating an existing implementation? Certainly you wouldn't even consider implementing a custom from-scratch implementation of the JVM, the fact that it's even possible to attempt such a thing for WA is already telling about which VM has a better design.

The emulator is part of the android SDK so you don't need to install the full IDE if all you need is the emulator. You can just install the Android SDK standalone and use that to install additional images and start/stop devices.
I believe Chrome goes much further than Firefox in trying to isolate websites into separate processes. If anything, I would guess that Firefox would be much more vulnerable to these kinds of attacks.
Ask HN: Will remote work be a forever trend? Why or why not?
The pandemic has allowed for most tech workers (and many non-Tech workers) to work remotely indefinitely.

At some point, the pandemic restrictions will end. Whether or not businesses will require workers to come back to the office is up in the air.

Some are suggesting that work will be "flexible" meaning that you will work from the office 1-2 days a week and remote the rest.

Do you personally believe that remote work will continue at or even increase from present remote work levels?

Or do you believe in the long run the party ends and we all go back to the office full time due to business needs.

What is your thesis? Why?
As someone who's been in this kind of position, I don't see it as a "moral panic" as much as it being a major obstacle when trying to teach more real-world programming and data science — e.g. how to write and manage code (and its dependencies) outside of a prepackaged CoLab environment.

You really think there's no concern if data scientists of the next generation have little care for the difference between a data file read from a local path vs. a cloud path? I mean, the "reproducibility crisis" was already full blown based on old-fashioned concepts of data files...
I think the problem is not necessarily things such as likes, upvotes, shares or other features but platforms which don't consider Goodhart's law when they introduce them.

Large Reddits tend toward bland and repetitive cookie-cutter content not solely because Reddit has a voting mechanism, but because the site's structure allows that mechanism to be highly vulnerable to karma farming. There are many casual users who don't notice the content is low-effort or repetitive, special interest subs make it easy to target posts, and the volume is too high for moderators to handle (and many will have a "we can't delete things which are popular and within the rules, even if we don't like them" policy).

Facebook (and YouTube, and to some extent Twitter) are a weird branch of that. The application of Goodhart's law wasn't initially to the users but to the platforms themselves. I have little doubt that initially they started with an altruistic observation that people spent more time on the site if they tended to see content from their most entertaining friends, but then someone realised seeing bad takes from a stranger was even more engaging and so you should see that instead. People realise they get more visibility for being controversial, and again there is no real moderation for this, so we have even more of a tyre fire than the blandness which upvote-driven sites tend toward.

(Twitter at least still offer tools to curate and remove algorithmic ranking from your feed, even if they try to nudge users away from them. That doesn't protect more popular users from the "trolling brings me attention" culture elsewhere on the site, though.)

I think HN is less affected by karma farming due to having a broader range of topics, active moderation of repetitive content and perhaps most importantly a relatively small community with a strong appreciation that the upvote should be used sparingly for interesting and unique content. Also the text and link based format helps - this might change quickly if e.g. HN allowed posting photos of vintage computer equipment, which could disproportionately gain upvotes compared to insightful long-format articles despite being easier to produce.

I would have liked to see this type of work start much earlier given the potential to save lives in the US and globally. A completion date of 2022/2023 is pretty unreasonable for a pandemic starting in 2019.

Have a look at Pixelblaze. It's a subset of JS on an ESP32 with no compilation - you code in a web browser and the LEDs just render live. I've done plenty of Arduino; this sidesteps the mundane getting-started knowledge base.

This $6 37-LED mini hexagonal board is a fun starting point, cheaper than most strips and matrices:

https://shop.m5stack.com/products/hex-rgb-led-board-sk6812
sure. any given procedure has a happy path and many different ways it could go wrong and become much more expensive. you can't really predict what it will cost for an individual. but after performing the same procedure hundreds or thousands of times, the hospital ought to be able to figure out a standard rate that (statistically) covers its costs. I don't see a good reason why a large organization with tons of cashflow shouldn't be able to quote a price up front after taking any pre-existing conditions into account.

of course, we might not like the prices they quote if forced to do this, but it would at least be better than rolling the dice every time.

The forced saving angle is often maligned by the sort of hyper-rational people that become engineers, but it's a real benefit. Things that happen to real people:

- job loss

- startup fails

- sudden medical expense

- freelance contract customer decides to spend less next month

- is married, spouse experiences any of the above

- decides to invest in something that fails

- decides to invest in VC, but that VC performs at or below the median of VC funds (e.g. far below S&P)

- takes a lower-paying job for external reasons (to learn new tech, exciting new space, etc.)

Financial stress situations like these challenge the "just save the difference in an index fund" plan. The simple fact is that when you are going through something like this, the temptation is going to be very strong not to make 100% of the index fund investment. If you miss it enough times over the decades, you won't see any benefit from this strategy (and you still will not own a home). On the contrary, if you owe a mortgage every month, you will (if it is possible) find the money somehow.
