> The criticism of iBuyers is not limited to internet users. Competitors and local real estate agents are starting to voice their concerns with the model and say they know of a better way.

If real estate agents don't like this, then I'm a fan. The real estate market is basically a cartel of entrenched interests. In my experience, most of the research done before buying a home has been done by the individual. 6% commission made sense when the broker would drive you around and help you shop neighborhoods and inform you. Today when you see a home you're more likely to know more than the broker because you may be looking at a handful of homes while he may represent dozens or more.

Renting is even crazier. I know people that paid 1.5 - 2 months commission on a rental in NYC (2-4k per month) for a one year lease. The agent spent all of 15 minutes with the client and would even arrange multiple people to view the apartment at once.

The fact that commissions have not come down even as home prices have gone up over the decades tells you a lot.
Depends on what efficiency your measuring and if you have any other factors to consider. Larger farms tend to be more economically efficient (at least for basic commodities, or because the margins are to low to support a farm under a specific size). But it's not a one to one comparison because the models and practices differ. You could say that a COFO is more efficient than a small ranch because they produce more beef on fewer acres and utilize brewer's grain from ethanol production. It's possible that a small farm raising organic wagyu might actually be more economically efficient since it's a higher margin product.
A similar thing happens even with human solvers from time to time. It's possible to solve a puzzle with answers that match the clue but aren't what was intended. Of course, the more you let yourself deviate from the clue, the more possibilities exist.

My favorite example of using this is the 1996-11-05, the day of the presidential election, NY Times crossword with the clue "Lead story in tomorrow's newspaper (!), with 43-Across". The puzzle worked with both "CLINTON" or "BOBDOLE" in the crossword.
They're just hoping they can scare the inexperienced person by telling them that they signed a non-compete, so they can't just leave and go across the street. They're not going to take it to court. They just hope the employee doesn't know better.

I recently learned that there is such a thing as "gas leak detector". Bah, looks like fancy soapy water to me. Looked up such things, and it turns out that soapy water can cause corrosion and other bad things. "Gas leak detector" also works at sub-zero Fahrenheit temperatures if one needs to check refrigerant lines. On top of that, I bought some because I need to somewhat regularly crack a propane line on the RV/camper, and it was all of $5 for what is probably a year's supply.
You usually have a structure that is already tree-like and need to write custom code to walk over it. If you're taking a tree-like thing and first extracting it to another tree structure just to do basic tree operations, then you're already performing tree-traversal and just wasting a lot of time, disk, CPU, and memory just to bundle every person-under-the-sun's tree structure needs into one place.
Ruby Garbage Collection in Under Two Hours
Samsung's current flagship 980 PRO consumer drive supports 128 queues, but the previous generation (970 PRO/EVO/EVO Plus) only supported 32. Their first two generations were limited to 8 and 7 queues. I wouldn't be surprised if these limits also applied to their entry-level enterprise SSDs that used the same controllers.
Funny that, some people argue that the future of I/O is synchronous memory-mapped devices.

There are a lot of comments about technical issues with previous iterations of the Fairphone - but, to be Fair, you can also find a lot of comments about technical issues with any technology (even if it's open-source!) on the internet.

What would be very helpful, and consistent with the ethos of the Fairphone organization (or, at least, what I think it is) would be to provide actual repair data. "n% of devices have had to be replaced entirely, m% of devices have had a technical issues requiring a hardware fix, here's the number of repair requests made per phone generation", etc.

I like the idea of a Fairphone, but I don't want to buy a product that is going not do the thing that it's supposed to, but I also don't want to avoid buying a product that is generally reliable just because I read comments entirely from the users whose devices broke.
IG Horowitz discovers more FBI abuses of FISA process
The main method is to stop spam being sent from your IPs in the fist place. We have a number of mechanisms:

- Automated outgoing spam filters (via rspamd) to prevent obvious spam emails

- Enforced DKIM validation on all accounts

- Automated / manual review of sudden outgoing email spikes

- Automated bounce response management

- Automatic block lists for any emails that hard bounce

- No free plan

- Manual review of new accounts

Additionally behaving as a legit sender helps, so things like greylisting, the right encryption support, rDNS records etc all need to be in place.

We also monitor the public block lists and take action if our IPs are mistakenly added to them

You don't take a position. That's my point. What is wrong with yes being capable of doing 10Gib/S? Nothing. It's optimum for a utility which has that sole function.

Cars are not very practical. Small and cramped on the inside, and not great for a family.

Trucks and SUVs make for great family movers.

I have a full sized half ton truck, It is the main family hauler. But I use the bed alot and tow my boat or trailer all the time.

But something small like a Ford Escape is perfect for most, and that is why there are so many of these compact crossovers on the road. They are bigger than a Car, higher up, and the back seats can be fold down to allow for a lot of storage room. Our secondary Vehicle is a Escape titanium, and see these everywhere along with Rav4's and CRVs. Really the only 3 compact crossovers worth looking at IMO.
The difference is the feedback is pretty incontrovertible if you build a building and it falls down. If you use composition instead of inheritance, the evidence of whether you're right or wrong comes in the form of ... slightly faster refactoring two years later? Maybe?

All of the stuff engineers argue about and that seem really subjective are the things where you just get very little feedback about who is right or wrong.
You can do that right now with Durable Objects.
You can ask Eric Ridge on the ZomboDB Discord, he's really nice:

The FA says this is the kind of non-compete that your server at Burger King might have to sign:

"The contracts prohibit employees who quit from taking a job at a competitor for a period ranging from months to years."

This is definitely intended to keep chain-A employees from defecting to chain-B for better working conditions.

The final tool in a person's toolbelt for labor negotiations is the resignation. This type of agreement is intended more to prevent resignations than to prevent leaks of valuable business strategy or similar.
I’m fairly certain that the entire lineup is only 2 different die designs. One for the 128-core “Altra Max” and one for the 80-core. The rest of the SKUs are just cut down and binned versions of the overall dies. This is an extremely common practice. Both tiers even use the same 4926-pin socket so there is plenty of supply chain commonality between them.

What a weird comment to make.
A few months ago. I had semi-frequent troubles with starting up and freezing (on both Linux and Windows).

I would also easily make accidental GUI changes that I could only revert by reloading original settings.

A less galling example was the introduction of a highlight that marked the line in a query where an error occurred. It was a bright blue color, hard on the eyes, almost completely obscuring the text. It’s a comparatively minor issue, but illustrative of how the tool’s usability was steadily declining.
If I'm hiring you to develop GUIs and work with relational databases, I'm hiring you to work on tree structures. I think you should have to prove you aren't completely clueless about tree structures.

If I were hiring you to work on raw data streams, I'd expect you to be able to figure out how to count in binary on your fingers in 10 seconds, if you hadn't already figured it out while sitting around bored somewhere.
There are no products that mix second-generation Optane with QLC. The only two products that mix first-generation Optane with QLC are consumer drives that are don't work on AMD platforms. Jens is testing using the second-generation server Optane drives (P5800X), and getting performance that's completely impossible with any of the consumer Optane products, because all of those are still limited to PCIe gen3 speeds.
Exactly that. Every local small business website approach needs to be tailored to the business needs of the company in question.

Some might need growth. Some, as you said, streamlined communications. I built a site for a small doctor's practice because she needed a way to inform about Covid regulations for the practice.

And her imprint needed to be in line with the legal requirements.

Nothing more. No SEO, no growth, no nothing. Too many patients already.

One needs to take the business needs into account. Always.
No sane person believed that deep learning would get us to AGI withing the next few decades. Anyone saying so is doing it to fool VCs out of their money.
True in most cases but there are exceptions. My child moved on to his college campus this month. There is a vaccine mandate for all students with something like a 97% compliance rate. Still, every student had to be tested within 72 hours of arriving on campus.

That would be some interesting data to examine and I'm sure the School of Public Health will be doing so over the coming months.
Being unable to see the whole (sub-)tree while reading the comments is a major disadvantage for me so far. If you read a thread that goes like a dialog with each new reply being nested under the previous one, this web app requires a key press to see each new reply — you never see them simultaneously.

But this app is an interesting take. I'm also not happy with unnecessarily mouse-driven interfaces
It’s not that bad if the vaccines aren’t working! This paper advocates for using masks instead, so we can just move the goalposts a little again!

"a dense vector is the opposite of a sparse vector"

I think there's another thing besides vectors that are a bit dense in the room here, eh? Yeah that makes sense hahaha -- thank you.
I brought up the theory in other threads that the vaccine greatly reduces the chance of developing an infection but, conditional on infection, outcomes are the same. Got massively downvoted for being anti-vax, of course, despite the point being that if true we should be aggressively vaccinating but stop telling vaccinated people they get "less sick" and if they develop any symptoms to take it as seriously as they would if they were unvaccinated.

We're pretty screwed: tribalism has eaten through things enough that it's basically impossible to discuss these things.
This article really rubbed me the wrong way since it was critical of a major competitor to TigerGraph. I would like to see a response from Neo4j.

Neither product is open source. There are a few open source graph databases that scale well.
Y’all (the audience, obviously not you in particular) must’ve done something to piss the band off. When I went to see them (and this is well attested to at other shows on their last two tours), they definitely stood around taking pictures of the audience (Tony Levin is also really into photography), with Fripp walking off last. Having said that, Fripp saw someone behind me trying to take a picture during Schizoid Man and stopped playing, shook his head, and wagged his finger until he put the camera away.

Optimizing Complex Animations: Tips and Tricks
Animations become more and more complex every year, which affects their performance. The more objects are involved, the greater the load, resulting in lags and compromised smoothness. The more we animate, the more there’s a need to do it the most fitting way without overloading the processor.

In this article, we’ll show you 11 ways to improve the performance of your animations using the popular GreenSock library as an example. You can also use most of the tips with other animation libraries as well.
>Isn't it the same CPU,

Yes. They are on the same die. ( Or may be two Die, Altra and Altra Max ) You can tell or guess by the same amount of Memory Chanel and PCI-E Lanes across the line up.

And also bin for yield as well. So you just fuse off the parts / core with defects.

That can potentially work, but only by getting the filesystem/block storage/PCIe layers of the IO stack out of the way, and even then it's only plausible for Optane or similarly low-latency storage. It'll never work for flash, because the latency of flash will never be low enough.
I can assure these strategies still work when done well.

The counter narrative is rarely banned because the in-power authorities openly say “you expressed dissent against our official narrative”. It’s almost always done “to protect people”.

Although it seems your criteria has already quickly expanded from “hate speech” to also “dangerous and damaging speech”, I’m curious at what point you would become concerned yourself?

Is your only criteria for when the line is crossed an open admission by those in charge that they are enforcing one political side over another, with no attached moral justification?

What if someone you respected in your personal life were suddenly deplatformed? What if, tomorrow morning, you personally experienced and verified something to be untrue that today, based on the current narrative, you believe to be true (and therefore “fucking dangerous” if opposed)?

If I’m wrong, and truly only the most vile of speech is being (justifiably) removed, then what circumstances would have to change for you to share my concern?

I’m not being rhetorical or facetious, I’m generally interested in hearing where the line is for you.
The first line says it all...
"Vaccines reduce infection, severe disease, and death from SARS-CoV-2"

Viral load does not equal chance of transmission, and those who don't get infected thanks to a vaccine, or have a shorter illness thanks to the vaccine, are obviously less likely to spread the virus.
As a layman I wonder when we're going to start bearing the fruit of all this effort in DL. In the average person's day to day life I mean.

I don't rely on DL driven systems and I'm not even a skeptic. I want it to work. But I can't rely on these systems in the same way that I rely on my computer/phone, a light bulb, or a refrigerator. Is that ever going to change?
They do get less sick though. There's a clear difference in outcomes even if the viral load at a certain point in time is the same.
Buildings are constructed correctly closer to 10% of the time, I assume. The ones built incorrectly still get used, just with lower lifespans and are more likely to run into issues.
These are two somewhat separate problems:

1. Do theoretical quantum computers have different properties than theoretical classical computers? (or, QBP = P? )

2. Does some particular physical device show the properties associated with a theoretical quantum computer?

Of course, if 1 is false, than 2 is more or less irrelevant. However, even if 1 true, that still leaves the question of 2 for any particular device.

The Google and Chinese experiments have proven 2 for their own particular devices.

This is an important milestone not just for these particular devices, but also because, prior to this, there was also a question 3: do QM systems actually exhibit the properties of a theoretical quantum computer? After the Google result, this has been almost entirely put to rest: the answer is yes.
AR is going to have to fight and uphill battle for adoption. Many of us have see the damage smartphones and social media have done to society, and AR is presented as the next step after those two ideas. That might be completely unfair, but just like I’ll never signup to any new social media platform, because of Facebook, I won’t buy into AR because of smartphones.
I love how everyone is piling on about the legal ruling and ignoring the actual problem at hand: apologists for harmful speech and misinformation.

"vaccine reduces the chance of developing an infection but, conditional on infection, outcomes are the same"

That is a spectacularly wrong interpretation according to all the data.
Sorry I dont follow at all.

Are you stating that you have a corpus of 10TB of software source and you are frankenstiening it with interesting results? I find that hard to believe.. Surely its like Monkeys and typewriters, 10TB in that context wouldnt be nearly enough.
It seems like it may be the opposite of what you're saying, though. Vaccinated are just as likely to be infected, but are infected for a shorter time and do tend to get less sick. Natural immunity from a previous infection still reigns supreme, though.
yes, but do the vaccinated have the viral load the same length of time, or less?
> conditional on infection, outcomes are the same

We know this isn't true, though. Repeatedly, since the data from the first EUA for the Pfizer vaccine.

https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/09/covid-19...

> The study authors note that unvaccinated people in the Delta-dominant era are more than 10 times likely to be hospitalized from COVID-19 or to die from it than vaccinated people are.

https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-vaccine-reduce/fac...

> Meanwhile, most recent COVID-19 deaths have been among the unvaccinated. In Italy, 99% of COVID deaths since February were not fully vaccinated. Indonesian officials found unvaccinated people more than three times more likely to die of COVID-19 than those vaccinated.

> In the U.S., unvaccinated people represent nearly 97% of severe cases, according to the White House COVID-19 Response Team.

Bitcoin makes sense as a store of value. Environmentally I don't really agree at all that it's worth it. And also if it were adopted in large, it would reduce the ability of central banks to use monetary tools to influence the business cycle and inflation.

But it's individual vs societal conflict of interests. Which also shows up in climate change.
You were probably downvoted for being incorrect rather than being antivax. Either way I'm not certain how it relates to the article. Viral load being the same doesn't mean that hospitalization rates or mortality rates are.
