Excellent point / mic drop : )

But one thought this thread is provoking is related to this well-intentioned but self-destructive (imho) 20th century cultural narrative that talent as a prerequisite for art creates a tyranny where certain people are allowed to express themselves with dignity while the vast majority are not.

Sometimes I like this narrative, sometimes I hate it. But regardless it undeniably had the effect of leveling the playing field while retaining the same old gilded-age toxic celebrity hierarchy, which simply seems to have had the effect of letting the wealthy and powerful silently dominate cultural / artistic production, which this thread already started to touch on a bit.

Ie, the now fairly ubiquitous experience of walking into an art museum, seeing a blank canvas propped on the floor next to a neon light. Thinking "Anyone could make that so whys this person rich and famous for it?" Shrugging, leaving and not going back to an art museum for another decade.

I enjoy that kind of art in the right context but it clearly has a destructive effect on peoples natural ability to care about art and have a healthy creative practice themselves.

You don't have to be an expert to get an idea of whether the person in front of you is experienced on a topic ; as long as you remain in the realm of their experience rather than going philosophic/theoritical

- Can you tell me about a time when you had an issue delivering things to production quickly? What did you do to optimize? How did you know there was an issue? What alternatives did you consider?
- Can you tell me about what you have done in the past to optimize they lead time to production? What strategies did you employ? How did you

While you won't be able to tell if what they did was optimal, that can at least tell you if the person in front of you has some concrete experience in the topic, and some depth in their understanding. While that's not perfect, it's certainly better than flying blind
You continue to perpetrate the academic fraud in exchange for your PhD.
I was slightly concerned about the meat itself such as accurate labeling (especially fish) and additives/hormones/antibiotics/plastics/metals. But my bigger concern was the negative externalities.

For example, the overuse of antibiotics contributing to antibiotic-resistant diseases. The greater environmental impact in terms of water/land/carbon. The manner in which animals are raised and slaughtered, especially in large-scale farms. The sustainability of fish stocks.

Several years back I started only eating meat from a couple local farms which addressed most of those concerns, but the cost meant that meat became more of a "special occasion" thing. I didn't go vegetarian (for example I tried the pork at our local farm's pig roast last month) but over the last few years it's just sort of happened that I eat meat less frequently, now a few times a year. So far I haven't particularly missed it from a taste or health standpoint.
I still think you're oversimplifying it. Let's look at one common technology: cooling. Our current cooling solutions aren't carbon free. They use 6% of US electricity and are nowhere near carbon free. These aren't amounts that can be ignored either nor are they the only emitting technology we don't have a great solution for (heating you can pump hot water to homes, which nuclear provides a great solution to generate said heated water). It's worse because the feedback loop.

You also can't talk about next-generation reactors because they don't exist right now (at least in production).

What I'm trying to say here is that this doesn't help our pro-nuclear case. It is cherry picking post hoc analysis. Climate change would still be a real problem, even with our leg up. Because frankly, climate change is much harder than getting solar, wind, and nuclear everywhere. It is also bigger than America, the EU, and China (total of 54%).

Point taken, but it is for server-side games like Fortnite, because the bulk of the game world actually runs on the server. However, I'm not sure when they started shifting over to that model (or even if that's what he was talking about as the future).
I thought it was well known: Building nuclear power stations has been extremely expensive and time-consuming.

Why would anyone invest in that? The answer is climate change, but conservatives in the US have opposed any action on that issue, so there hasn't been political will.

Our cities are not designed for European style public transportation. I don't know why people keep saying this. Public transportation at scale in most US cities would be a nightmare. Los Angeles is a good example of this. People work 50 miles from where they work. They shop 10 or 20 miles away. Etc. Nobody is going to walk five miles to go to a bus or train station. That would be silly. And then, what do I do when I need to take my three German Shepherds to the kennel, or the vet? Or when the family wants to go kayaking at the lake?

Private vehicles are not going away. Self driving vehicles might alleviate some of this, but we are likely decades away from that reality.
I think reason he gives about gatekeeping is only weakly related to the bulk of the article. The point is that job listings shouldn't be arbitrarily specific is an obvious one that most already agree with, and was a thin excuse to show off his deep knowledge of modeling jargon.
Yes, but those new discoveries are less fundamental.

One of the reasons we had such an explosion of new theoretical physics in the first half of the 20th century (which gave birth to all the practical discoveries you mentioned) is that, in 1900, there was just so much unexplained weird shit.

Shit like:

1. How do you predict the energy of electrons produced by shining light on a surface? And why does light cause electrons to be produced?

2. Why is the speed of light the same in every direction, to really, really high precision?

3. Why are there spectral bands in the light from stars? And why are they sometimes shifted?

4. Why can current pass only one way through a metal pin poking a semi-insulator?

5. Why does pollen appear to move randomly in the sunlight in still air?

6. Why the fuck is the sky blue? Why does light sometimes act like a way, but sometimes like a particle?

Remember, a lot of this weird shit went unexplained for 25-50-100 years. Then, between 1900 and 1950, smart people came up with theories that explained all the weird shit. So we don't really have so much weird shit anymore because most of it has been explained. Sure, super-conductors are kinda weird, but we also seem to be able to predict a lot of their properties from existing theory.

So, we're really just riding the coat-tails of scientists from 100 years ago. People 100 years from now aren't going to have coat tails to ride.
I took a networks class during college, and there was a homework question from the textbook about a scenario like this. It had you compare transferring a large amount of data over the Internet versus loading it onto a disk and driving a physical distance to load it onto the other computer. The answer depended on the available bandwidth against the distance to drive.

And for other practical applications related to this idea: https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/
This is exactly what I hear from people who have ran their own funds. In particular, the person who ran a HFT in the late 90s through the early 2010s said he rarely used anything more complex than linear regression with at most two variables. The speed of doing computations also matter here, his fund was eventually squeezed out by bigger guys w/ more racks. I did hear from a person who ran a quant fund with longer holding times that they used models such as Kalman Filter, which require far more computation to estimate values than regression.
Oh wow. I do not like that "global using". It harkens to the auto-loading issues I've had with Rails. "Where was this defined? I dunno! It probably works here, though!!1"

I generally don't like a random file impacting several other files. Extension methods are ... tolerated and ... "fine" but I still feel unpleasant using them.

File-Scoped namespaces seem like someone's really, really tired of having nested folders and seems actively unnecessary.

I like natural lambda types

Good update on parameterless structs. I assumed that's how they worked already. I haven't used C# in 2 years; but you could do that with classes back when, so I assumed it would be the same with structs.

Constant interpolated strings is nice.

Extended property patterns is fine, just probably not for me.
Yeah, totally fair. Nuance is king.

Still. I can see hiring someone with 5 yoe C# to serve as the Senior on a Java project. However, I wonder about hiring someone with 5 yoe C# to serve as the Senior on a Java project. There would have to be some sort of additional major value add (e.g., domain expertise).

At 15 yoe C# experience this starts to make a lot more sense.
I'm not certain if the dramatic warnings are the right direction. It is truthful, but maybe "this is a really boring thing" would work better. Until people start associating that with excitement: mask-on, mask-off.

The file sharing aspect of this seems to be the least difficult portion of the problem. I’d love to see something that passes muster, to a librarian, on the catalog front. Sort of a wikipedia or open street map of library catalogs.

The resources themselves might be found anywhere (physically at a library, in digital form for purchase, downloadable via torrent, etc.). A true library of babel.

If I knew more about library science, I suspect catalog federation protocols all exist, but there is probably work to be done in making such a thing resilient.

You could look for special treatment in robots.txt. But that wouldn't show you what the server would say if you had a different user-agent.
Coal and oil also release methane as part of the production process. Gas isn't as good as renewables, but a shift to using gas produced electricity for heating and EVs etc with or without renewables is still a good move.

Tim Berners-Lee, who invented the Web, said that Aaron was a mentor to him. When I was doing a startup in 02000, we told him what we were doing; he replied by explaining all the problems we were going to run into in the next several months, and was mostly correct. He was 13.

I worked with him on another small project later, called Watchdog.net; whenever we disagreed, he changed his mind when I presented my arguments, except when I was wrong. I have never met anyone else of whom I could say that.

Aaron organized the successful effort to stop SOPA/PIPA, successfully provided public access to most of PACER at great risk to himself, founded Demand Progress, and made significant contributions to Markdown, RSS, Reddit (a company of which he was a founder), Creative Commons, Change Congress, and Wikipedia, all before committing suicide at 26 to escape legal persecution by the kind of people who use the word "hacker" to mean "computer criminal".

In this comment thread there are a few semiliterate baboons saying things like "I don't understand the cult of personality around Aaron". They should be permanently banned from HN.

Nobody's pretending the US is the sole contributor to climate change. China's emissions exceed those of all other developed countries combined[0]. And, when you look at the top 20 companies in terms of carbon emissions, it turns out that 12 of them are state owned (thus, non-US companies), and, unsurprisingly, all of them are energy companies[1].

OTOH, the US is not at all blameless here. If the US military were its own country, it would rank 55th in terms of global greenhouse gas emissions, beating out 140 other countries[2].

Judea and Samaria (the "West Bank") isn't officially part of Israel as far as I understand. Naturally they don't have voting rights in Israel.

The democracy inside Israel is as I said above somewhat functioning, at least compared to the rest of the region.

Well, I can't predict the future, but so far I've managed to bypass every bullshit DRM control I've come across for text content and ebooks without too much trouble. It's mainly a question of choosing your mediums and hardware a bit more selectively. This doesn't make me blind to anything beyond the next 5 minutes and personally, i'm far from a technical person. Yes, the tech and media giants will keep looking for ways for screw people into becoming captive consumers who "buy" things that they don't even really own, but technology has so far done a remarkably good job of counteracting much of these attempts if one bothers to use it with a bit of creativity.

> nuclear waste is not waste

There is a lot more to nuclear waste than just the fuel rods. Lots of materials that are either used by workers at the plant or part of the plant become radio active and can no longer go to a regular landfill of other trash processing facilities. That is why some energy companies are trying to default rather than pay for decommissioning plants once they have reached the maximum age that they were constructed for.
> my ancestors are portuguese and raised me to be portuguese, > I was only born in Brazil

You are 100% Brazilian. Your ancestors, knew a Portugal from 100 years ago. It is the same with the japanese Dekasegi.

Portugal is awesome, IMO the best country in the world, but you will definitely have a lower life standard there. If you are married, expect a lot of "saudades de casa".

I've mentioned this before, but the Bosch 9-DOF sensors are accurate and have enough fidelity to track me walking through my house while sitting in the back room on a desk. That's the accelerometer. The gyros can detect music playing at the opposite end of the house assuming the speakers are big enough - phone playing YouTube, no, but sound bar, yes.

Make no mistake that MEMs sensors are really very good.

I was trying to wire something together to track what vehicles were travelling down my forest road and left the room with the data streaming, and came back to be impressed.

Denuvo has been very successful at protecting games in the launch window the past couple years. Last I heard there was only one person willing and/or able to crack it and their throughput wasn't high.
Another ignored issue I see is that people choose the modeling methodology they use, the scoring methodology, and the data that goes into the model.

The reactions act as though the model has a life of its own and that some unlikely error led to these results.

Purchased data/models can frequently be wrong or unhelpful to one’s modeling objective.

Finance also has a number of risks vs rewards with every decision.

You've done a really nice writeup here. To me it reads as someone patiently explaining the basics without being patronizing.
The QuickEd external message editor for QuickBBS was perfectly usable at 1200 baud. During screen repaint it gave priority to updating the current line so it was responsive and went back to repainting the screen as soon as you stopped typing. It would ensure that it does not have too much data in the output buffer to keep latency down.

I wrote it with my brother.

Well zfs probes and stops when the data is non compressible, that why stuff like mp3 gets not compressed, so if the pg-datas are already compressed zfs would try it and give it up after some kb's.
I feel like you’re arguing a straw man; is anyone actually saying or thinking that the US is the sole cause of climate change? Everyone I talk to about climate is under the impression that China is the big bad wolf (although that’s overly-simplified and not true either).

The US is influential, for better or worse; I think many people rightfully expect the US to be a leader on climate policy.

On your point, keep in mind that American consumption causes a tremendous amount of off-shore emissions. We have artificially “low” emissions because we outsource them to regions like Southeast Asia.

>if you are a legit white hat hacker

There's no such thing in my book.

There are, however, legitimate security researchers and consultants. If you are one of these and have a service you want to provide, then get in touch with me like everyone else and make your pitch. Get my permission to provide your service, instead of just "providing" it then sending me what feels like extortion threats to buy it.

I know that's not a popular opinion here, but IMO that idea is part of the problem, and exactly why the concept is so ripe for (and rife with) abuse.

From what I've seen it depends a lot on the kind of loan. I bought a house with a conventional loan earlier this year and I don't think the appraisal even looked at any of the potential issues (Despite at least a few thousand in repairs identified by the inspection). But I also know someone who used an FHA loan to buy a house and they couldn't get the loan unless the house passed a pretty detailed inspection.

I do not like that "global using" as well. I wonder why they added it.
It goes far beyond people asking them to do it. They are extremely proactive about their censorship, and most of the time they have zero justification for it.

For one example of many, they permanently banned an autistic live streamer for asking a question about how the Reddit Live algorithm works, claiming it was "harassment toward the admins." In reality, they've been brazenly and repeatedly lying to everyone about how the algorithm works for over a year, including selling ads based on grossly inflated viewership numbers -- and "grossly" is honestly a huge understatement. But folks who mention the algorithm in any negative context tend to get banned permanently, or at the very least censored from using certain words, such as algorithm, admin, mod and ban.

There is no conceivable way that spez is oblivious to all of this, so it's safe to assume that he put his stamp of approval on the behavior, either intentionally or by inaction.
