Either you end up counting things that are poor indicators of performance (points, lines of code, commits, etc), or it's completely subjective.

My company basically uses the subjective, using the opinions of 3-4 people. Although some break policy and do things like point counting anyways.

Litecoin 10 Years
Litecoin was created in 2011 by developer and former Google employee Charlie Lee and is often referred to as silver compared to Bitcoin.
If we're in a simulation, you have no basis for drawing conclusions about any of our observations, whether those observations have taken place, whether anything outside of this moment exists, or anything outside your mind, or both.

The notion that non-determinism can be proven, exists, and/or has a relevance to a simulation all make assumptions about reality that either won't or don't have to hold if you're in a simulation.
I enjoyed that reference a lot, thanks for this :)
No. The proper boundaries are between galaxy clusters, which remain gravitationally bound to each other. If you can reach a cluster such that its gravity is strong than the expansion of the universe, then you can reach every part of that cluster.

I think Backblaze only stores 30 days of revisions anyways, so to migrate you only have to maintain two backup service subscriptions for a month. And you might want to do that anyways since if you have a lot of data, it might be weeks before you get all of your backups on the second service.
Try putting some carbonated drink into a thermo flask with a sealed lid and open it after it's been in your bag.. the seal holds right to the end and the POP.

I have a hole in my kitchen ceiling from accidentally storing dry ice overnight in one too.
Or just buy an 8 TB external, hook it up to your Backblaze-enabled PC and back up your NAS to the external with rsync. And the additional benefit is that you've also implemented 3-2-1 doing so.
Bull Shiting
Its simple if i leave to go fishing and catch a 2.lb fish eh. But when someone ask me how my fishing went
Man you should of seen it i got nibble and then was in the fight of my life but it was worth pulling in that 100lb bad boy.
That's bullshitting
Now if i tell you that story and i never evan left the house then im a liar
Liar. No bueno
Bullshitting. Good
I am curious if the shortage driven demand is setting these kids of for future career trouble. I would guess there might be short-haul drivers for quite some time, but long-haul and fixed path shipments are maybe not too far off the automation path? Will automation creep in slow enough for attrition to weaken the impact to drivers?
> Even without the whistleblowers, there were a bunch of studies of how damaging Instagram is for the teenage girls.

Please read the damn study. https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-facebook-files-11631713039

Essentially, twice as many teenage girls said IG made them feel better as said it made them feel worse.

That doesn't suggest that IG is a large problem for teenage girls (note that this was also a very small sample, because it was qualititative research).

Like FB have done a bunch of things I don't agree with over the years, but reading the actual documents that the WSJ used for their files is revealing in terms of what they did and didn't include.
What are the fallback plans here in case of a hack like this? Assign new numbers, somehow? Require all financial activities be done in person? The implications all seem awful
This is definitely a cultural thing, in France for instance, when I've visited. Every tiny village has a great bakery and possibly a patisserie as well. If you don't arrive at 8am or whenever, you won't get to choose what you want. People deal with it and the bakery still gets a lot of attention, in some cases the supermarket doesn't even sell bread and you have to go out to the bakery.
I'm not convinced that comparing two different states of matter is a useful comparison. The universe doesn't necessarily work differently, we're just observing different phenomena, aren't we? The behaviour of an atom or subatomic particles in isolation is not necessarily the behaviour of the same particles when part of a much larger system.

Could one could also argue that quantum indeterminacy makes it difficult make predictions the more interactions you add to a system? That is, interactions at the atomic and subatomic levels are manageable enough to observe, but as we add actors, the interactions grow exponentially, and each actor's state is influenced not just by itself but by other actors in the system, ad infinitum.

It's probably just a marketing blurb, but whoever manages to fix BT voice audio will be my personal hero.

This is interesting, especially for a language like Nim that favours familiarity with Python.

Even Rust dropped most of its strange operators/sigils early on in the experimentation phase, because they confused people and Rust doesn't step back from confusing people lightly, haha.
Your thoughts are very well articulated. When you put it like that, it finally makes sense to me as to why I subconsciously avoid that community.

People on LessWrong like to suppose probabilities. Saying that the probability of a hypothetical situation is such and such. Ie: people argue "simulation theory" must be true because the the probability of this and that blah blah blah means that one of their suppositions is true. But that's all just baloney as they have no way to actually quantify their assumptions.

Therefore it's not science backed by experimental evidence, but rather hypothetical scenarios backed by leaps in logic - which they justify has having such and such probability if some other precondition is true/false, blah blah blah
Backblaze has options to supply your own key, but it's an optional feature. I'm gonna guess that over 90% of Backblaze users do not supply their own keys.

Anyone figured out a way to hack this so it can be used on non-Apple hardware - hackincloth?
Thanks for the clarification!

I was not aware of the "immediate" condition for barter.

Reading from your link, there seems to be a gap in terminology for a situation separate from bartering, gift giving, and money based exchanges. Specifically, delayed exchanges where an account is informally kept but based on what was taken, not any unit/money.

The wikipedia entry for "Gift economy" rules out "explicit agreement for immediate or future rewards". [1]

So what to call the situation implied by "delayed barter", or "gifting with explicitly expected reciprocity"?

That situation can still happen without money. (Not claiming it was the basis for any particular economy, as it wouldn't scale well past trusted or enforcable relationships.)

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gift_economy
The reverse situation would be the case (cable supports 3A, but not 6A). For the range of voltages supported by USB-PD, the cable only cares about amperage. Copper wire doesn’t care much if it’s 5V, 50V, or 250V, it’ll carry it the same. However, if the size of the wire isn’t correct for the amperage, it’ll over heat and potentially catch fire.

It’s the end device that cares about voltage and amperage both as the voltage steppers inside have to be ready to handle providing the right voltage to the chips and the amperage has to be right to handle the load.
The term is quite commonly used in Java world for serialization, mainly DTOs (e.g. JAXB).
Can I take the opportunity to ask how she feels about 'person of colour'?

I find it absurd, a ridiculous beat about the bush, that was never necessary growing up having friends who were 'black' and that was a fine description just like I'm 'white', what of it, and indeed closer back to (what was then at least) the out of favour/racist/not politically correct 'coloured'.

But as I said, I'm white, so it's not up to me, and if that's really what people prefer then fine - but I have the impression that it's a predominantly American (I mostly only 'hear' it online) turn of phrase, that's spilled over a bit sure, but generally not used/preferred here?

Not sure about the algos used, but the game "X-COM: UFO Defense" (known as "UFO: Enemy Unknown" in Europe) was released in 1994, and it prominently featured a 3D rendition of earth that was used in the game.

Facebook is the whipping boy for the establishment media and other tech organizations because... it doesn't censor enough? Oh, more likely because it's a closed ecosystem that is seperate from, rather than integrated into the other ad driven web model businesses, and is in fact competitive with it. Doesn't mean Facebook is "the good guy," but who still believes the motivations behind these attacks are protecting people?
I assume this happens on very small threads and/or with thick layers?

I print both depending on size, and a full thread is usually more self-supported, not _less_, while printing faster to booth. Toothed threads tend to suffer from curling more easily when comparing at the same overhang slope, and are weaker structurally.

I'm using toothed threads for larger threads to save on time/material usually, or oddball constraints.

I can see why you would get the effect you're describing, but this would only happen if you're printing with insufficient Z resolution in order to support the overhang of the thread. I cannot see how a toothed thread would improve in such a scenario.

It's amazing how many musicians today are dependent on data storage for live performances.
That sounds most accurate, read Bourdain, Kitchen Confidential for more detail :-)
The number crunching part is already fast enough, however the aggregations, parsing and filtering that come beforehand is really really slow. This part is often done in pure python because it's often custom code tailored to the data you're manipulating.

We're not interested in scaling up the parts that are already fast, but the rather mundane, uninteresting work that come before.
Nim has multiple memory management strategies and you can pick any. A few types of garbage collectors, reference counting and manual memory management.[1]

Nim is less verbose than Go and more expressive.

"Present-day X" is a common stock phrase in English to talk about a place in the past while identifying it, for convenience, with today's political borders.

"Julius Caesar ruled over territory in present-day Italy, Tunisia, Spain, Turkey, (...etc)" is a perfectly normal sentence.
One of the difficulties of separating small-tribe economics from the rest of their social system is that the members of a small tribe don't think of it like that. If you live in that kind of society then you know personally the people you are dealing with, and while you might "trade" items or favours, its all pretty approximate, with the "balances" held in peoples heads, and tied in with other concepts of social obligation such as a general duty to look after the sick and elderly, and watch out for each other's children. It's only once people start living in larger groups where you can't know everyone that something like an economic system develops.
Git Basics – A General Workflow
I’m fairly sure that is a ms teams issue, it runs like trash despite how much hardware you throw at it.
* Goroutines are probably a lot more easier to use. Work is being done to make Nim even better in that area: https://github.com/nim-works/cps but don't expect it soonish.

* I feel like Go has less 'edge cases', but the Nim compiler is steadily getting more stable, especially consider it's not backed up by a major company!

* Metaprogramming is really powerful, but not beginner friendly. The documentation says use macros when necessary, but personally I don't think that really happens in practice.

The advantages by far outweigh the disadvantages, especially if you are looking for a clean Go alternative(except maaaaaaybeee web application).

EDIT: my own wishlist, but they aren't relevant compared to Go:

* Better sum types
* Builtin pattern matching
> If we're in a simulation, you have no basis for drawing conclusions about any of our observations, whether those observations have taken place, whether anything outside of this moment exists, or anything outside your mind, or both.

But then simulation is unfalsifiable. Whatever you observe, the simulation could have paused an arbitrary number of times, or modified you or the environment to an arbitrary degree, hence it's compatible with simulation. Which makes simulation "a difference that makes no difference".
No, I'm not offended by that. I'm just disappointed that we kowtow to moralist busybodies with the IQ of a house plant, and the sense of humor of a door knob, and this is somehow deemed not just socially acceptable, but "virtuous". It's a rather obvious, and a rather pointless death spiral, with increasingly stringent, humorless, and insane purity tests for all involved. Were it up to me, we'd be mercilessly laughing at such people.
The "tramite number" mentioned in the article is quite funny. "Tramite number" translates loosely to "filing number".

When national IDs were issued each one got a "tramite number" that I'm guessing was sequentially assigned when the physical ID cards where issued.

Because this number is vaguely random and is printed on the actual physical ID card, it was used as a password on government apps (for example, for getting authorization to move around during covid). To log into the app, you enter your national ID number and then the "tramite number" that is printed on your physical ID card.

Of course, the number can't be changed, and is stored in plaintext in a large database somewhere. It therefore makes for a horrible password.

The database in question just got stolen, and the aforementioned apps now include all sorts of sensitive PII.

True. But, but, … BUT when it comes to files found on differing (physical/logical/virtual) disk partitions, ye gonna need that block copying mechanism within ‘cp’.

You went ahead … and “made my day!”

While the suggestion does not encroach inside the Windows’ VM to perform “their” CPU suspension, it is a better idea to process suspend the host’s KVM underlying that Windows VM. Hope that the guest’s video driver doesn’t leave its hardware in an inconsistent state for the host’s main video driver and its entire system.

This tidbit needs to be made a prominent FAQ on Qube website.
Even a disk-based storage engine may never need to read from disk if you have enough memory, because the operating system caches recently used disk blocks in memory anyway.

OT, but this is the premise behind Kafka's log storage as well. Which is why it's great for sequential reads from the front of the log, and not as a general-purpose DB, which too many people want it to be.

Surely. Lots of genial ideas there. And the ZAZ members themselves do not see that (with reference to the commentary): it's so natural to them that they themselves diminish it; this is why, also elsewhere here, I noted that genius is beyond intentions. And if I have to attribute something overwhelming importance and weight, it's genius.
>Nim made its first entry in TIOBE index in 2017 at position 129, last year it entered the top-100, and for 2 months the top-50 (link). We hope this release will reinforce this trend, building on Nim’s core strengths:

I wonder if it has chances to ever enter top 20.

Apple had a choice: many CPU cores or a bigger GPU. They went with a much bigger GPU. Makes sense: most software is not designed to run on a large number of CPU cores, but GPU software is massively parallel by design.
I watched it recently with my SO and saw it when I was young and they had not seen it before. We both laughed our heads off.

So people are now angry that FB instead of using all the data collected to detect people using multiple accounts now is using only the data provided to them in their account linking?

I was also talking about the amount of RAM. The reason they didn't allow people to increase the RAM at all for a couple years as because of the power consumption. After people freaked out they eventually added an option, but kind of discouraged it. I had forgotten that they even added that option though.

Equating the natural history of "interest rates" with that of debt / credit relations gives a hint of why you might not have liked the Debt book.

Anecdotally, modern day bankers and economists get a real shock when he discusses the long historical relation of debt with slavery. Their further response to the book is generally tainted by that unease.

The rarefied world of high finance and macroeconomics (while well endowed with "research" and sophistry) has generally avoided to take responsibility for both human and physical (environmental) costs of the financial / economic systems they rationalize. That is a societal debt that is now becoming overdue with unknown consequences.
