Lisp probably was invented in the age of the typewriter.

If you look at mathematical notation, written with quill pens and paper…it’s even more concise. Functions are like lisp, f(x). Vectors are laid out on the page in an array and surrounded by two strokes. Matrices are a 2d array surrounded by two straight lines.

This whole approach seems as archaic as Roman numerals is for representing numbers (they were based on lines and slashes like a tally system).

Maybe there is an even better notation for representing code which will be as much a leap forward as the positional number system (which represents every number as a power series with base 10) was to numbers.
There is a possibility it will get worse, unless the people of Australia and New Zealand choose to be very brave. Non-violence across the board, but there needs to be a massive outpouring before it's too late. Before the authorities just bribe the college students with free stuff - students don't have a long enough memory to see the risks of what is happening. Therefore the adults and the parents will need to be very brave and stand against the rhetoric.

The way the mass media tries to pit "unvaxxed vs vaxxed" and tries to label the unvaxxed is so dishonest, and it will prime inexperienced minds (who are already overly-zealous due to programming and doom-scrolling) to just go with whatever the State says. History does not bode well if this happens.
Exactly! I really do think a tier is missing. I was very excited about hasura cloud when It came. My dream was to move all my hasura instances to the platform. However I could not defend spending $99/month on each weekend projects or small client work just to get my instances to europe (US = very high latency). Hopefully a ‘hobby-pro’ tier will come at some point :)

.. oh, and keep up the good work. I really do love the product!
Really glad to see them using inclusive naming, and remove the term "master" from their jargon. Watching movies like Django Unchained has given me an appreciation for how simple words like that can be triggering, so I work hard to avoid it in my engineering.

crows are super clever, when I drive brisbane to sydney they'll be in the middle of the road eating kangaroos and other dead animals, they dont fly away they just hop to the right of the line so I dont squish them at 100 miles an hour, watch me go by then go back to what they are doing - they actually know which side of the road I'll go past and that they will be safe.
This may end up being a trademark dispute :)
Just today I got an offer related with NFTs. A guy I know, basically makes pictures, a batch of them where everyone has something unique.

He sold his first batch. Now he's working on the second one. A few thousand pictures, hundreds of dollars each.

And here I am, with a crappy salary writing code.
How long did it take to train this GPT-2 based model?

There's a subset of words produced by the site that trigger obvious and amusing ideas of what they could mean in the reader, but the generated definitions have nothing to do with that, and usually do not make much sense (besides being sometimes grammatically incorrect). It's evident that the software has no semantic understanding of what it generates. The rare occasions where the definitions appear to (almost) make creative sense are just statistical flukes.
I’ve read that one reason wealth inequality is worse today is because high-education-high-income individuals want to marry other HEHI individuals whereas in the past this wasn’t the case. If the claim about the past is true, it seems to undermine your point
I think the # of female doctors has grown much more quickly than the # of male nurses (IIRC most medical students are women now). It would be interesting to compare stats by gender- does a male software engineer marry differently than a female one?
Yes, but I'd consider it extreme for businesses and other entities who do not need that personal information ask for it, I also have some sort of vaccination record but I rarely take it out or show it to someone.
Haha I'm sure it was "surfing the web" ... I never heard anyone say "surfing the internet"
The option is never going to be power or no power. It's going to be paying the connection fee, setting up your own power, or living somewhere already connected.

Any proposal for governments to spend more on something should also come with a description of what they should spend less on to compensate for it.

Why should urban citizens subsidize a lifestyle choice for others? If you want to live out in the middle of nowhere you shouldn't expect everyone else to pay you for it.

If you want more DRAM there's the "<$20" Sipeed board with a 512 MB version of the same SoC, the "Lichee RV" module, available within the next month.

https://www.hackster.io/news/sipeed-teases-linux-capable-64-...

Or of course the Nezha with 1 GB RAM and a full set of interfaces for ~$100.

I expect there will be plenty more boards with this basic SoC in future.

What Pricing Performs Best?
I would actually want to use only one limit, not two independent limits. And if I throw this [1] at Wolfram Alpha it actually says 1. I have a set of n elements with measure 1/n and then grow the set towards infinity while simultaneously shrinking the measure.

I agree that this does not work if growing the set and shrinking the measures are two independent limiting processes very similar to how integrating x dx from minus to plus infinity yields infinity if you have independent integration limits [2] but yields 0 if the integration limits are not independent [3].

I am still happy to accept that it requires uncountable sets but I am not convinced by the argument you provided, that the limit does not work out. I think there must be a different issue, some other property of probability measures that fails.

EDIT: I also finally did a little bit of searching and while I did not read much yet, it seems that the problems indeed arise from additivity as you hinted at with the partial sums. But I also found that there are actually ways to have uniform distributions on the natural number [4] if one uses non-standard axioms, but I only skimmed the paper for the moment.

I gradumated from there... This is like the first time seeing its name here.

I'm not sure I saw any nursing students while there. All of the students I knew were in the engineering program, or had started there and moved to the business program (often as an intermediate step before dropping out)

Biomedical engineering seemed to have the least skewed ratio when I attended... But it's also really fing hard.

All for a way to protect small businesses which actually pay local taxes vs. Amazon which doesn't pay taxes in the US at all - but not sure a minimum ship price is the best approach.

Isn't there a better way, perhaps based on physical presence?
I think there’s too much hype around the model M. I own one and find it too bulky and loud. It’s a gimmick. Also it has a PS/2 connector, so it’s a pain.
I don't have any particularly nice things to say about American politicians from either party. But I don't think we ought to conflate social pressures with top-down policing of speech. The former is a cultural challenge; the latter is a material erosion of civil liberties.
Thanks to you I just learned the word tortious!
Teacher's a great pairing for any profession that might involve moving around quite a bit. Teaching jobs are available everywhere and you're probably not going to miss out on big bucks by being in one place versus another. Higher pay here, lower pay there, sure, but after CoL it mostly evens out.

It's also damn near the only career in the US that provides roughly European levels of time off, and, crucially, pretty good (by US standards) parental leave. Time it right and you can be off for four months or so with your newborn, which is a very rare benefit in the US (yeah, I know, some super-rich tech companies offer such perks, but those are uncommon jobs).

Teacher's schedule also means that parent can usually handle afternoon-but-before-5 kid stuff, if the other parent's schedule's standard and inflexible.
This extension simplifies things a bit:

OK - I’ve seen this view thrown around on here as well. Do you think this translates to political influence? In other words, is the concern that social media can influence elections overblown?
Right. And then you'd have to apply a correction (which might change a tiny bit over several hundreds of miles flown, or over the years).

But no need to change anything in the aircraft, as far as I can tell. Just planning and procedures.
Everyone is much too focused on UBI. We need the payment rails in place first. Master accounts at the Fed gets us to a DCBC and the option of UBI.
I'm not sure I'm convinced about that. The desire for convenience may be a widespread cultural message, but I wonder if it comes from people and not marketers. A lot of people seem to suffer in perpetual convenience, they may not be able to articulate it, but it makes them uncomfortable. After a while they feel restless and crave some sort of meaning in life, something to engage with, an interesting idea, a hobby, a project. Some form of work, not for salary but to create something or learn something or do something. Something real and authentic.

This thread is actually a good example of that, and OP isn't the only one who has noted that the Internet seems to have turned into a soulless mall where nothing has any effort or thought put into it. Well, it hasn't, but when you engage with the Internet through certain tools it sure looks that way.
It saves millions of dollars to not have to do a different mask set, so quite likely. The downside is wasted silicon area and thus per-unit cost, but you've got to make a lot before that bites.
Is there a word for laws that disproportionately affect people in rural areas so that a government can play protectionist for urban companies? I hate Amazon as much as anyone, but in this case they're definitely not wrong, even if they're probably lying about their reasoning.
> If there were 100 good search engines the price for advertising would be 90% lower

If there were 100 good search engines for end users, but opinions of different users on quality were highly correlated, the traffic would be very disproportionately on the one that was perceived as even very slightly better.

And they’d make the bulk of the advertising dollars.

And they’d have the bulk of the money to throw at improvements.

And the next year, unless some competitor got more access to outside investment to make up for that, the gap would be bigger, they’d have even more of the search audience, and even more of the advertising money, etc.
Do you have a citation here? I thought it was on the order of $30-$50
I understood every word of that!

What even makes a word 'real'? I think is the bigger question, if you can say something that everyone implicitly understands, is that not real?
Do you have some data on how widespread and effective it was? Perhaps this also contributed to Rome's population problems - it needed to rely on the provinces to supply labor and manpower for a substantial portion of the Empire, and eventually the capital was moved away from Rome entirely. Constantinople was also basically empty by the time it was conquered, having a population of only 50,000 people when the Turks arrived, from a high of one million.

But I think in such ancient societies, the struggle is a little different. E.g. when you are being ravaged by wars and plagues, you need more than replacement level fertility. You need huge fertility that can recover massive population loss in a short period of time. After Hannibal decimated the population of Italy, Rome recovered remarkably quickly. They just made more Romans. Later on, that stopped working and they needed manpower from the provinces.

In modern societies, we've licked most of the other stuff and so can keep going much longer as fertility declines, to the point where we start noticing only when rates hit below replacement. Traditional societies would see population loss long before fertility rates fell below replacement.
So tldr;

Everyone marries Elementary and Middle School teachers, even that group intermarrying.

I would be interested in seeing which jobs often pair together among divorcing couples.
It's been something we've done since the start and plan to continue doing. If you read back over our engineering blog, you'll find a surprisingly thorough description of the entire CockroachDB stack, from the lowest storage layer to distributed transactions, Raft consensus, SQL => key-value mapping, online schema changes, cost-based SQL optimizer, Kubernetes usage, and so on. In fact, when we onboard new engineers, we typically point them to a stack of external blog entries to read in order to get up-to-speed on how CockroachDB works.

Being open on how we solve hard problems is the way to build our collective knowledge as a developer community. Certainly CockroachDB itself has benefited enormously from all that has gone before and been published in the open.
This is correct. When I was still in grad school and the better half was working as an engineer I pretty much got the ultimatum that we needed to get married for the tax break. We had been living together for 7 years.

But then we were both working and living in SF as engineers and I did my taxes on my own for the first time about 3 years in from graduate school. I was shocked that the penalty for being married vs. not was $3000. I immediately turned to my wife, and said, "split, and split the difference?". (She understood that I was joking.) And then I discovered that you can't fix it that way, you still get taxed at the same rate. Or did. That was 30 years ago. (We're still married, humor is important.)

But after that while working at Sandia I had a PhD friend getting married to another fresh PhD, and I did tell him, do take a look at the tax hit.

I love creating little sanctuaries and do think they’re useful as pockets of support and diversity. Also, the Tomato Hornworm is an awesome creature and results in a Hummingbird Moth. I try to feed them vegetative branches and keep them separate if I can so that they hang around and we still get tomatoes.

>adjust Quality Score parameters or bid floors to increase the CPC and/or make ads look more like organic results to increase the ad CTR.

That's not really how auctions work. Raising the price floor would just exclude ads with CPCs below the floor from paying, and since they're already getting paid for the maximum CPC bid at the time anyways they would just make less revenue.

If they messed with quality score discounts in an exploitative way, the entire billion-dollar SEO industry watching it would notice and cry foul.
Says the guy talking about “idiopathic priapism” when referring to a language's adepts.
Don't lie or exaggerate. We do not have "vaccine or fuck off." This has never been done. What do I mean by this? I mean this:

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/oct/24/austr...

"Unvaccinated Victorians to be banned from venues including bookshops, pubs and football matches until at least 2023, while similar restrictions in NSW lift in December"

Pair that with the totalitarian measures enacted in Australia over the last 1.5 years in general (see my comment history). It's time to stop exaggerating the role that past vaccine requirements had when working in hospitals or in specific settings like that. This is much more than that, entailing a complete subversion of individual rights.

Someone supporting these types of measures has bought into the mass media kool-aid pitting "vaxxed vs unvaxxed" which is now dehumanizing a subset of the population so much so that useful fools are not seeing the writing on the wall when a rich politician is saying on absolutely zero basis who can and cannot be included in normal society.

Why do I say it's zero basis?

"Had COVID? You’ll probably make antibodies for a lifetime"

"Previous Covid Prevents Delta Infection Better Than Pfizer Shot"

When all the facts are considered, it's blatantly clear that these mandates serve no real purpose anymore ON THE TERMS THESE VERY PEOPLE WERE ESTABLISHING. Over the last year, we heard about 60 to 70 percent being the marker for herd immunity and endemic covid. We've reached those numbers through antibodies (regardless of source) already. For months now. Where's the admission from Fauci and Daniel Andrews that their newfound limelight and powers are no longer necessary?
> Government shouldn't be run for profit, frankly it should pay for the entire connection.

Look, there's 'shouldn't be run for profit' and then there's 'Simply infeasible to do some things regardless of profit motive simply due reality.'

Pull up a map of Ontario and pick some locations at random and then figure out the distance from those locations to the nearest town that likely has a utility tie in. Tell me the distance and what you think the cost per km would be in that kind of situation. Now tell me if the government should cover that kind of service for whoever wants it, whenever they want it, for free.

You vastly underestimate the size of a Canadian province like Ontario and the costs of installing and maintaining infrastructure in a place with that kind of climate.
No surprises that those in exploitative working conditions - not payment, but time - end up intermarrying the most: chefs, doctors, nurses... all of them have one thing in common: extremely long shifts, frequent overtime and double shifts.

When living with a "normal" 9-5 person, that person will build up resentment for not seeing their partner, for differing sleep schedules, frequent travel and whatever else comes with that job. Someone in a similar work environment however knows the struggles themselves and since they also have the same problem as their partners, there is less chance of resentment directed to the partner - hard to get annoyed by your partner working a spontaneous double shift when you have been in the same situation a week earlier!

This was one of the reasons I moved to NYC many years ago over Silicon Valley. No doubt the career opportunities in SV would have been greater but the diversity in company (both friendly and romantic) has a lot going for it.
Preferred, or just ratio is so skewed that they married who they interacted with all the time. Men could not do that as much as the were not enough women.

In this regard women devs get added bonus of working tech. Relatively high salary and likely have higher family incomes as both partners work in high earning field. Where as male devs would often marry partners earning less.
> Since depreciation is subtracted from revenue you just "bumped" up your revenue by ...

No, you bumped your net income. Revenue is unaffected by the depreciation change. Revenue is up 61%.

Also, nobody would be fooled by an accounting trick like this. Analysts routinely compute EBITA, earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation, exactly for this reason - filtering out the more purely financial/virtual expenses that are less informative for understanding the core business.

They likely did it because you're required to report things like depreciation in a way that reflects reality. There could be tax implications for instance, since you can count depreciation expenses against your taxable earnings (though often companies maintain separate depreciation accounting for financial reporting vs taxes due to the different rules for each).

> Healthcare is delivered provincially. Ontario spends 37.5%. Close to 40% i guess instead of 50%. My bad.

Yeah, I mean, I know how healthcare is delivered, but the headline number should really be 23%, as that’s what it is across the various levels of gevernment, unless you’re specifying that you’re only talking about a specific level of government.
