The problem is an independent audit would also uncover Tether's likely involvement in various illegal schemes to pump up the prices of cryptocurrencies. It's not only that they don't want to be audited but that they just can't.
Kumo.ai | Various Roles | SF Bay Area & Seattle, WA | Onsite | https://kumo.ai/
The team behind PyG (PyG.org) is working on a turn-key solution for AI over large scale data warehouses. We believe the future of ML is a seamless integration between modern cloud data warehouses and AI algorithms. Our ML infrastructure massively simplifies the training and deployment of ML models on complex data.

With over 40,000 monthly downloads and nearly 13,000 Github stars, PyG is the ultimate platform for training and development of Graph Neural Network (GNN) architectures. GNNs -- one of the hottest areas of machine learning now -- are a class of deep learning models that generalize Transformer and CNN architectures and enable us to apply the power of deep learning to complex data. GNNs are unique in a sense that they can be applied to data of different shapes and modalities.

I wonder if we'll see a difference liability insurance rates for Tesla owners vs. the others. If they're truly road-bound, OTA-distracted, undirected electric missiles, I'm sure we'll see a difference there before we hear back from NTSB.
Unlikely.

Regarding peers, first, if it becomes an issue just take it off your resume. Second, don't work with those people. Go somewhere else that pays well and work with other mercs instead of people working for free soda to save the whales.

LOL at MayVaneDay once again getting the HN hug on her server:

> You're seeing this page because you tried to access MayVaneDay with a referer of "misc-stuff.terraaeon.com". This probably means Hacker News is at it again. This article keeps getting published at least once a year, and every time it brings with it a wave of attention from "techbros". These are beyond irritating to deal with. I don't have the extra mental energy to deal with unironic Node.js developers.
One concern I would like investigated is that it appears Tesla's Autopilot can't detect (or can no longer detect?) stationary objects.

Until fairly recently, I believe that the RADAR, which used to be in all their cars, would have detected the stationary object (me) and applied braking force to at least reduce the impact.

Now, though, Tesla has stopped installing RADARs in their cars and apparently also disabled existing RADAR in cars that have it (because they all are using the same camera-only software).

If this has also removed the ability to detect stationary objects and the corresponding emergency braking functionality, this is a really serious problem and needs to be addressed, perhaps with a recall to require installation of RADAR in all the new cars and re-enabling of it.
HN is so crazy sometimes. Literally the only two comments mentioning the actual product in question are positive and discuss the features and why they are useful for kids. Everyone else just uses the headline as an opportunity to sound off on why FB engineers should be taken behind the chemical sheds and beaten with electrical cords.

> A gap doesn't necessarily mean there is a problem

Yes, it does.

> unless you believe that proportional representation is important enough to do away with seats having a regional tie completely.

Two problems here:

(1) it prevents a false dichotomy that the only way to address the gap is erasing regional ties completely, and

(2) it confuses the question of “does a problem exist?” with the question of “is there a means of fixing the problem that doesn't have it’s own, equally or more significant problems?”

The leads are inserted through a glob of hot glass, along with a glass tube. The bulb's open base is heated to make it soft, the blob containing the leads with attached filament are inserted, then the base is welded to the lead blob. Last the tube is used to evacuate the bulb and/or inject inert gasses. While under this vacuum the tube is melted and smashed closed, permanently sealing the bulb. Attachment of the base comes later.

The same things that are wrong with them when working in a team. I want to do experiments in separate branches, sync them across my desktop and laptop, merge them painlessly, merge various bug fixes to those branches and go through history without having to go make a cup of coffee while I'm waiting. And most importantly, I don't want those things to be any more pain in the ass than they need to be - and they are more painful in CVS, Subversion and SourceSafe.

Of course complex software can be written without Git - I've been writing software since before Git existed. It can also be (and has been) written without, say, lexical scoping. But it's just harder.

Out of curiosity, the other day I wrote a script that goes through each git commit in a repository and calculates how many lines of code there are, so I can see how it changed over time. That'd be fun in SVN.
For various reasons (including age and working in tech) I've considered leaving software development when I reach my 40s, to pursue something that I love doing that's a bit more tangible.

This comment lit a fire under me. Thank you.
Proportional representation does not necessarily (or even usually) completely do away with seats having a regional tie, although it does increase the size of the region.
'difficult' is uncomfortably vague here. Lots of transforms happen to the bits that might make them difficult to figure out even without encryption. Many of them don't intend to keep people out, despite them being more obscuring than a ceaser cipher!

I feel like you're overdefining encryption to make a point, when you don't need to at all.

This was, by my count, the third time in your comment you claimed that "text is the weaker medium" -- each time in response to an example illustrating how text is superior. So basically, your definition of "weaker" is... What the rest of the world would call stronger, right?
The government needs to go away they are doing nothing positive for the people.

There are no laws written for cryptocurrencies and it should stay that way. What gives them the right to just make up laws about stuff when they feel like it?

Cryptocurrencies are hurting nobody but government and their "regulations" are definitely hurting people.

Therefore, by common law, the government cannot "regulate" anything that is not doing any harm just because they feel like it.

Government should to go back to fixing roads and infrastructure. That is all we need from them the rest is tyranny.

Perspective may vary here, but it seems to me it's to avoid having to adjust when we work by having the government enforce an artificial aberration on top of the normal social construct of time, a construct that at least hinges on the objective reality of Where The Sun Is. It's to avoid moving "a 9-to-5" to "an 8-to-4", to avoid it by pretending that noon isn't noon and making all of us mess with our clocks to keep up that pretense.

There's of course, "The Big Short" if you want a stupid 2-hour movie. But that movie glosses over so many details and is straight up hyperbole at many points... so its not "realistic" but maybe a better thing to watch if you really don't want to put in much effort?

This information on black walnut is harmful. The fruits contain a toxic substance called jugalone which cannot be consumed. Every notice a black walnut tree and notice how there are no other plants in a circle around the trunk? That’s because of the jugalone.

Have you consumed any without any side effects because that’s interesting considering the number of black walnut trees I have on my property.

EDIT: I’m finding conflicting information online so I’m not sure. Apparently jugalone is poisonous to humans but I’m also seeing lots of black walnut recipes.

I would absolutely give you a break if you don't join the Peace Corps. I won't give you a break if you choose to take a lucrative job at Facebook. This is not a black-and-white issue.

>I will agree that Facebook's controversies are a bit more egregious than most

So, I would posit that working at Facebook is, thus, "more egregious than most" other jobs. That's the point here. Nobody is saying that it's either work at Facebook or join the Peace Corps. I, personally, think an engineer at Facebook is contributing more harm to society than an engineer at any of the other companies you mentioned, yes. Substantially worse? Depends how we define that. But, worse? Definitely.
> The critical question here is whether the University is restricting alternate employment or speech.

The process that stopped the professors was not one for restricting additional work in general, but one for restricting additional work based on a conflict of interest. Since they are a public University their ability to limit free speech like this is more limited than a private institution as iudqnolq mentioned above.

If the University of Florida has a general rule for restricting any additional work by default for professors they are an outlier among Universities.

Lots of people banded together to rollback the degree to which capitalism dominanted life in the developed world, and were pretty successful at it over the last century.
Yes, and these pitfalls are so obvious and straightforward that I've been careening for the last decade towards the conclusion that most people who do this simply aren't capable of understanding the concept. It's beyond their ability to understand that their opinions about the world should be anything but an uncritical regurgitation of every single _mood_ that their media bubble pushes on them (despite being in a state of permanent horror at how the "other side" uncritically regurgitates everything _their_ media bubble pushes on them).

I'm sure this is a process that every person with a brain has gone through in every period of history, but being in the early stages of the Internet's massive transformation of the way society communicates with itself seemingly makes it a lot more volatile.
all of the above are heavily involved in crypto.
I'm no fan of Facebook's assault on privacy and exploitation of user data; I'd rather pay for a service than be the product.

That said, Messenger Kids is a crazy good product that took off like fire among my children's classmates. Parents get to authorize all contacts and review all communication; kids get fun photo and video chat tools, with all sorts of kid-friendly filters and such, along with loads of minigames. The UI is so dead-simple that illiterate youngsters have no problem using it.

So, yah, I'm not at all surprised to learn that they target 6 year olds. _They have a product clearly intended for them_.
Ah, I wondered why those signs were so prevalent when I visited. Thanks for the explanation.
Ironically a lazy/stupid comment.
> In fact i think that stackful coroutines are probably a better fit.

My experience with fibers is that they're stack overflow generators. Presumably you want lots of them running concurrently, so you'll need a small stack size, and now you have to be extremely careful about what code you run in them as it's very easy to run out of stack.

You can't rely on overcommit because if you actually end up touching the pages you're stuck with them.

> My issue is stackless coroutines would be perfect for generators but the required allocation kind of kills it :(.

That's true, though it depends on the granularity of the operations you want to run in your generators. Ranges+algorithms should cover most of the simple/small cases?

What exactly is the problem with ballot harvesting if they’re legitimate votes? Maybe the State shouldn’t make it hard to vote. And your source is not exactly unbiased, stating without evidence that “ Updating the voter rolls by removing dormant registrations does not “disenfranchise” voters; it is necessary in order to keep the rolls accurate and up to date, as many people move or die every year.” How do they know that? Just a gut feeling? White conservatives have for centuries tried everything under the sun to stop Black people from voting, that’s just one more try.
