At some positions of responsibility you are required to make quick assessments of people that will govern how you interact with them in the future. There is no time to sit and think if this other person is a good father/mother/friend etc. That comes later when you seriously decide to invest in a relationship. I don’t see how forming strong first impressions for people you’ll hardly ever see again is a bad strategy.

To the one in the receiving end, you can choose to get intimidated by a larger than life personality like Steve Jobs, and focus on what he said to you and get crushed by any admonition or, conversely, lose your head by any praise.

This is not any good. Rather, look at the situation for what it is. It’s a mini-game. Good or bad outcomes should only inform future actions, and not be allowed to take over your thought process for unnecessarily long periods.
Another social media example might be finstas, where people create a separate private IG account to complement their public IG account because IG has binary privacy settings: either public or private.

I miss speaking with people about work in the easy way of leaning over and asking a question (hey, do you remember the name of that function to does ___?) etc. Sure I can ask on slack but it's not the same.

I mis-conversations being unscheduled

And I miss socialize "with coworkers". We're working on the same project. That socializing helps know what's going one, what each other is doing, what problems we are running into. It gives up empathy for each other tasks etc. Reading about it in various forms of online databases doesn't come close.

i think it has to do with that image is quicker to load. if you are using the coretto image(aws) on azure, then you are not guaranteed that the local docker repository has it cached, so it will take very long to load. Also support will be more difficult, if you use the non native image.
I’m not sure about the “via gig work” portion of it, but they do in fact do tool rental delivery and pickup. I rented a Dingo last month (a small digging and leveling machine that you ride behind on a platform) and this was provided as an option. It was not really clear when I looked whether HD employees took it or whether they subcontracted the service out using something like gig work. IIRC the fee was $100 USD each way. That was prohibitively expensive for me and was nearly the price of the 24h rental itself which was around $280 if I remember correctly.

I fortunately own a truck with a hitch (the Dingo came with its own flatbed trailer) but I could theoretically see it as an option for those who didn’t own one. Though at that price you might as well pay the $300 to $400 or so to have a hitch installed on your car instead provided you own one that could tow the Dingo (which most cars could, it’s pretty light).
An aside: I realize I've been brainwashed by popular shorthand nomenclature when I see 'crypto' and immediately cringe. My brain expanded this to 'crypto [currency] identity', despite its usage in this sentence clearly meaning 'crypto[graphic] identity'.
You laud appstore as some kind of grand innovation. It was not: software repositories for linux distributives or Steam existed long long before Appstore came around, y could find what you want, press a button and boom, the application is installed on a device! The necessity of same system for smartphones was beyond obviois, it would have appeared no matter what. What was unique in what Apple did was locking down the device, prohibiting all other methods of app installation, and silly people applaud them for making everyone wearing these shiny handcuffs.
1) The previous pandemics had far greater than 1% mortality rate

2) The previous vaccines had much longer development, and years of safety testing.

3) The previous vaccines have far fewer VAERS reports for side effects.

4) Previous vaccines have longer lasting immunity and do not require frequent booster shots
That isn't the reality I see on the ground. Take a look at for example this Tibet documentary: https://youtu.be/zkYhSsQqRhI
This Tibetan woman has 3 husbands. Look inside her house: full of Tibetan and religious artifacts. And this is just a normal Tibetan household, after we've been told for decades that Tibetans are being culturally genocided.

It looks to me that Tibetan scripts and languages, Mongolian scripts and languages, etc are better preserved than over the border in India and Mongolia.

Yes there are also plenty of examples where they tear down a cultural site. Yet I think there is a fundamental difference between western and Chinese interpretations of such acts. Western societies have developed a sort of mythical worshipping of traditional ethnic culture. To the Chinese, to whom development and modernization have come late, development and modernization is number 1: there is no pride in living a traditional, ethnic life if that means being in the middle of poverty. Some sites are torn in the name of development. See this discussion from 1999, back when the China topic wasn't so politicized: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1999/02/tibet-t...
I'm a bit confounded by this one. Walmart has been seemingly directly aiming for HDs business. They introduced Hart, a tool brand that is for all intents and purposes a Ryobi clone, made by the same company, and expanded their general tool offerings.

This makes me wonder if WM couldn't move tools, so decided to get money in a different way.
I can understand if a product has limitations, or odd edge cases, but Microsoft MFA is purposefully designed to be user-hostile.

Some examples that came up recently in "not corner case" scenarios:

1) For tenant-to-tenant guest access, each user must re-register MFA for each tenant they've been invited to. So if you already have the Authenticator app installed and configured, it doesn't matter. It'll prompt you to create a new entry each time. I have dozens already and clocking up.

2) When logging in to Azure, Microsoft has purposefully added "dark patterns" to hide options related to other, non-Microsoft-Authenticator technologies. They're available, but they're always tiny, tiny links squirrelled away so that you're inexorably lead towards using the Authenticator app. Someone at Redmond really wanted their KPIs met at Yubikey's expense.

3) If you get a new iPhone, unlike everything else on the phone, the Authenticator app will not transfer your MFA registrations. Apple IOS will securely transfer your accounts, passwords, etc... but Authenticator is special. You need to first configure a consumer account(!) to back up your enterprise MFA settings, and then restore them manually. At which point... none of them will work, and you get partial instructions that you can't follow. If you've wiped your old phone (e.g.: trade-in or repair), you are now locked out.

All of the above were designed, architected, and developed on purpose. None of these are oversights, bugs, or missing features.
Rust in itself is easier to understand and reason about than the equivalent kernel C code in my experience.

The actual cognitive cost does not come from Rust itself, but from mixing the two memory models and interop between them, IME and is probably a bad idea in general.

Should just boil the ocean and write the entire LK with Rust only.

Not in my experience, although I haven't done an insane amount or traveling. I've seen local payment systems in a handful of countries, but I don't remember any that were commonly used at POS. I know of a handful, for example, built by a few banks or a mobile network operator, but those have little market penetration due to only working with those providers or their partners (but of course not their largest competitor).

You are making a very different scenario. You are suggesting in 2030 will be possible to kill one person in a setup environment with very high budget for 1000 drones.
The scenario of the movie is to kill 2.5 million people with 2.5 million tiny drones with 25 million USD budget over a very large and not controlled environment like a city.

Nvidia makes most of their money selling GPUs as computational accelerators-- both generic CUDA and neural network applications.

They don't _need_ to profit off their ML models. It's a value added service. Ensuring their hardware has marketshare at the leading edge of the ecosystem is the main point.
They destroy the natural environment. Perhaps not as much as if you cut down the trees and built a cabin, but you are still changing the natural landscape in a way that sticks out like a sore thumb.

What makes collapse inevitable and imminent
Another point where it’s doing something that to me as a Rust expert is obviously inferior: it’s using Unicode-aware string stuff although anything non-ASCII will either be ignored (if non-alphabetic) or panic (if alphabetic). It’d certainly be better to treat the input throughout the program as a sequence of bytes rather than as UTF-8.

This type of thing reminds me of the three articles ending in https://fitzgeraldnick.com/2018/02/26/speed-without-wizardry... (which has links to the first two parts of the saga), where one guy rewrote stuff in Rust for performance, another demonstrated how it was possible to make the JavaScript version faster than the Rust by some algorithm changes and by various painful and fragile tricks requiring detailed knowledge of the runtime environment, and finally the first guy applied the applicable parts of that back to the Rust, after which it handily beat the JavaScript again while also being more consistent and dependable.

As much as I would love to agree (since I have a home in Bangalore on the route to Hosur), it's not really possible. Bangalore suffers from severe water shortages largely exacerbated by developers building over former water harvesting reservoirs. You'll need way too much power and water, that it would just be cheaper to shift manufacturing elsewhere (to, say, Pune).

Ugh, the third party seller marketplace! I loathe sites that do this: Walmart, Bestbuy, and NewEgg come to mind.

They seem to all be trying to half copy Amazon? The ironic thing is this is now one of the worst features since they started "fulfilled by Amazon".

If you're not benefiting from the logistics chain, you're just adding a middleman they adds markup and makes disputes and returns more complex. In some cases they're just drop shipping it from Alibaba/AliExpress/etc and you might as well order directly at 25% the cost.
A single weight can’t encode an individual word, but the ratio looks close to overfitting too me too.
The beginning of article acknowledges that Redis can do a bunch more things and explicitly scopes things down to caching use case:

uh oh! Thanks for catching that. I just let Wordpress/Elementor do its thing...I guess I need to spend some time looking at it on mobile. Safari, Chrome, FF or ?
there is Element, which is different from Discord, but if you take a few weeks to get used to it it works as a Discord replacement just fine

It should be noted that long term navigation for decades has relied on gravity gradiometers that measure and compare the 3d gravimetric tensor with appropriate map data for the area in question. It is possible to navigate underwater without emitting any signals for months at a stretch.

My guess is that either there were errors in the maps, due to age or earthquakes. I would be surprised it if were malicious 3rd party causes.

K&R doesn’t even come up in a computer science education. The algorithms class I took 25 years ago now was mostly reading and writing algorithms by hand on paper.

I think maybe you’re referring specifically to learning how to program and not computer science at all. Because nearly every CS curriculum was dominated by a lack of hands-on programming and only in the last decade or so became more code-writing focused, which is exactly the opposite of the narrative you are painting here.
As for the neighbors: it's more complex than that. Many neighbors are also mad at each other. The disputes are not merely Chinese.

> previous pandemics had far greater 1% mortality rate

Read the opinion. It clearly defers the question of "whether vaccination is or is not the best mode" to legislatures and not to the courts. Based on that precedent, there is no "is this disease severe enough" test a court could apply.

(There are the open questions as to whether Jacobson applies to states, and not the U.S. government, and whether the Occupational Safety and Health Act confers these powers to the President. But the commentary on this is dry and one sided.)

> previous vaccines had much longer development, and years of safety testing

Jacobson was decided in 1905. The Food and Drug Administration was formed in 1906 [1].

> previous vaccines have far fewer VAERS reports for side effects

VAERS succeeds Jacobson by over 80 years [2].

> I foresee a movement in a few years of “commute forward” people trying to improve on their work-life balance, once they realize how much of life they’re going to be missing once they start commingling work and home life together.

Could we just agree that people are different and that some of us do not feel the way you do?

When I'm working I put on work clothes, I sit at my work desk and I take my work coffee cup. When I am done, I roll down my roll-top desk, and go pick up the kids on foot.

Arguably I appreciate that work culture in North-America and Asia may not be conducive of this. But ultimately we can all have the separation we need.

For me I built it around routines and work/leisure separation. For you it is your commute. Could we not let us both have what we want?
All the code in TAOCP is read-first, since you're not readily going to type it in and run it at all.

Singularity containers not mentioned yet: are unique, they don't change on use and can bind mount resources, run without root privileges. You can actually execute the image files and include them in the well known Unix pipe sequences in your favorite shell. Really powerful stuff.
Maybe empathy is pareto distributed.
I suspect because there's a lot of entropy in hair and because of the shape of the optimization function, (which might even have a spatial term) a regular pattern in such a noisy and hard to learn region falls into a local minimum while the rest of the image converges to the true minimum. There's a little meat left to optimize here, but you need to do it cleverly because there's no reason for a neural network to learn all the many combinations of hair pixels in this application. That could require as many parameters all the neurons involved in generating the faces, I'd bet.
Doesn't Microsoft already make money from private (read enterprise) github docker registries/azure container registry while dockerhub is serving free stuff for them?

Enterprise registry is about access control which Microsoft knows how to do, they already have enterprices in their ecosystem, no?

In regards to metadata retention, the shadow Comms Minister at the time outright said Labor had no plans to amend or repeal the legislation if elected.

I don't buy this "they're secretly anti-surveillance!" line. They are complicit.

It's also puzzling how you imply that amending these bills would fix them. As if one more check and balance would make them not a horrific disaster. In fact, Labor's "amendments" to "fix" the AA bill was adding mandatory judge approval for mass surveillance -- sounds fixed to me!

Labor are pro surveillance and have been for a very long time. They have voted for every single surveillance bill. Their MPs ignore feedback about surveillance from constituents.

Implying they should trash fundamental principles by voting for this stuff just to cling to power is pretty weak. They won't change anything, they support it.

The metadata retention bill that Labor vehemently supported has already been viciously abused. Originally touted as being a bill designed to combat terrorism and child abuse, it's now used to investigate things like littering(!!!). Federal police have been caught using it to stalk girlfriends repeatedly. Labor support this.
Yes, there is a base cap of $160K ($185K for HCOL areas like NY and Bay Area), and the rest of the compensation is RSUs. For engineers who are senior and above, RSU based compensation will usually be more than 50% of their overall compensation.
I share your second guessing about religion and have wondered if losing it will simply lead to it being reinvented. However I am not sure cancel culture activists are looking to win anyone over. It’s more that they want to use fear and consequence to deter and suppress others, in particular to keep them from expressing ideas that oppose their own ideology. The idea is to let the opposing side starve itself out while only your ideas dominate and propagandize the next generation of minds. It’s the same tactic advocated by authoritarians of all political persuasions.
They didn't profit off of ML models, they profited from the DARPA contract. See point above about murder robots.

Lowe’s has a similar UI that is pretty competitive IMO. What I love even more about both is that the sites are nearly always correct in both count and location. If a store says 15 in stock on Aisle 27 Bin 9 I can walk into that Lowe’s or Home Depot with an extremely high level of confidence that I am going to find that item at the listed location with the correct amount listed on the site or only one or two count off. It’s very nearly magical how good they have gotten at inventory.

Compare to say, Tractor Supply Co. which is a chain of pet supply stores in the States. TSC purports to show stock but it’s a complete dice roll on whether the numbers are actually correct or not for any given location. In their case I would prefer them to not show any inventory online at all because of how wrong it is all the time.
