Totally agreed, that's why I wanted to call out that it's a measure of perceived quality.

If there's really great documentary about the International Space Station, I'd expect flat-earth believers to think that it's rubbish, that's just part of being human.

Conversely, if I saw a documentary about abortion (or some other very polarized topic) which had a 9:1 like-to-dislike ratio, the difference between that ratio and my expected 1:1 ratio would tell me that lots of people thought that the video was high-quality, even those who didn't share the same ideological views.
Summary: The subject (of the article) was a very routine SIGINT sergeant in WWII. She worked in Canada, listening on the radio to (Imperial) Japanese military signals. She wrote those down on paper, then (in effect) mailed the paper to the next stage of the SIGINT pipeline. The signals were encrypted (by the Japanese) - so she had no way to tell whether one said "Our big attack with force X against location Y will happen at time Z", or "Our garrison on Useless Island is still bored."

While on paper this was all super-secret, and such dull work was very important to the war effort...the Japanese knew that the allies had loads of SIGINT radio operators like her, doing jobs just like hers. And nothing she knew would have been of much value to them.

For me, all the CBC article's hype about super-duper secrecy just messes up what could have been a much better human interest story.
For circuit design or manufacturing?

I haven't been in school for a while, so I'm not sure what's current. I really liked Baker's book - CMOS circuit design. It had a decent overview of the manufacturing process for the perspective of a designer, as well as good introductions to major design topics.

Unfortunately, with modern processes, most of the textbook design equations and learning no longer apply so it becomes as much learning an art as it is science.
Any of the other BRICS countries would also be a viable option for that, without the big downside of the CCP's anti-crypto position.
It's crazy to me that such a large valuation was obtained by Rivian. I suppose having the backing of Amazon signals a certain level of success.

Looking forward to seeing more good-looking EVs enter the market, yet I'm hesitant due to the challenges they'll face ahead (charging, manufacturing, etc.)
> If you can't see downvotes on content, there is no way of determining how misleading the content may be.

There are many ways of doing so, with their own pros, cons, and time requirements. At best you're losing a relatively low quality way of quickly filtering out some videos.

> It also disguises cases where a creator may be getting harassed or bullied by others.

You seem to want it both ways. It is judging videos by this ratio that allows the harassment to have an effect.

There may also be an emotional component to it; a private downvote likely stings a lot less than a public one. It prevents people from piling on or joining in the harassment. And it can allow YouTube to shadowban harassing accounts.

For the people who could actually affect change, it hides nothing. YouTube and the creator both get to see the numbers, and in extreme cases, they'd be available for law enforcement.

> The beginning of the end of being able to trust YouTube stats (as if that wasn't already an issue).

These stats were never trustworthy for viewers.
> Why are dislike counts more credible than like counts?

Nobody said they are. I'd be about as upset if like counts went away but dislike counts remained. The point is having both counts gives you a very useful signal.

Terrible article, but admittedly also a questionable move by Discord, especially that bullshit survey. If you're worried that the survey will produce results you don't like, holding a rigged survey only makes you look worse.

NFTs are scammy and of dubious value, but the Ethereum ecosystem has legitimate potential. If Discord users refuse to see ads and don't want to buy Nitro though, shady NFTs might be the only way to pay the bills.

I'll go a different route and recommend that you read The Ascent of Money[1]. It's much more engaging to read vs an econ textbook and it will give you a much better understanding of money, currency, and finance by starting way back at the beginning of modern civilization. It effectively explains all of the major concepts of international finance (bonds, insurance, stocks, currency, loans, etc) through the real-world examples which created them.

AI is almost certainly an easy scapegoat here. Vastly more likely one of Facebook's tens of thousands of human moderators is sympathetic to the Vietnamese government (or just their -type- of government) and wanted to hide a viral video of a devout Marxist eating a golden steak.
because some guy on twitter said any Tether exposure to commercial paper = 150% exposure to imploding evergrande bonds

this is the funniest meme, “we made it up” https://youtu.be/GM-e46xdcUo

Its a pretty clever meme because pointing out how dumb it is makes it seem like that person doesnt believe there is anything else wrong with tether, immediate derailing their criticism of the latest rumor, allowing for literally any rumor to be masqueraded as truth.

Types of Business Growth Most Essential to Success
The challenge for Apple is going to be their unwillingness to integrate with others. Business Manager only integrates with MS Azure Active Directory for IAM. The vast majority of small business do not have Azure Active Directory. They either have nothing, or they have Google Workspace.

Apple needs to not just launch a competitor for AD. They need to properly support integrated directory services with a broader range of systems.

Aside from that, they don't have an endpoint security solution, which is a necessary part of this package, ultimately, if they care going to replace JAMF, who is the real target/loser here.

If Apple can do those two things... well... I'd switch in a heartbeat. Why? Well, their support story is going to be way better than JAMF. Also, I hate having multiple vendors when I can have just one.

For those saying that Apple has no room left to grow... I expect this isn't the end of this for Apple going after business users. They need to roll Claris into the mix, stop acting like Numbers is a spreadsheet, and finally launch a cloud platform.

There's many billions for them to make here.

314 miles range to "experience nature" feels very problematic.

I immediately had to think about the movie "Into the wild".
Kinda hard to see how this would fix anything. Germany had harsh reparations that they had to pay back with little way to do so. Adding a mega entity to control something like the power grid would seem to be the antithesis of a libertarian idea, and I don't see how that fixes anything at this point.
It's interesting data, but the obvious response from YouTube would be "we run sophisticated click fraud detection algorithms and periodically remove interactions determined to be from fraudulent accounts; given the current political climate White House videos attract more of these types of fraud than other videos on our platform and thus the effect is more pronounced on their videos". The numbers in question are small enough (~1k missing interactions) that it doesn't seem totally unreasonable.
If a large group of innocent US citizens that ventured to China for tourism reasons were shot down by CCP police would you say the government should stay out of it, instead blaming them for trusting China?
The United States government defaulting on any amount of its debt would be really really really stupid policy.

I am not convinced apriori that this is the case, and don't feel comfortable having politicians who definitely have no clue whether that is the case making the calls.
For what it's worth, the Economist has been showing this in their daily "5 most important stories today" section of the app for the past month or two. Comes up at least once a week.

Maybe the typical Economist readership cares more about this. I for one did not quite grok the importance or the implications, but it's been interesting to hear about.
All I can offer is an anecdote. I have a 2015 Mazda 3 (top trim level, with 34,000 miles on it.) Purchased 4.5 years ago with 8k on it for just under $20k.

Well over a year ago, I started checking KBB.com values to either trade it in or sell it. Back then, trade was close to $12k, and private party was a bit over $13k.

I've checked several times since then, and the price has basically grown and grown. As of today, it's showing $18k trade-in and $18.5k private party.

As little as I drive, I'm very tempted to sell. But at the same time, I could drive this car for the next 10 years easily. With remote work being a permanent fixture for me, I don't really need the car, but I'm still a bit emotionally attached to it. But am I more emotionally attached than I would be to $18,000?

I am curious, though, how well KBB aligns with real world transactions and what dealers are willing to pay. (It's always been a hassle negotiating dealers to give you anywhere close to KBB trade-in values.)
I've used Rows before & can't recommend it enough, their support is also top tier.

Watch the US bond market closely. Today saw a sharp selloff on the 10-year maturity, a favorite "asset" of foreign governments and companies. When those organizations get into trouble, they sell treasuries to raise cash. "Trouble" often comes in the form of dollar-denominated debt which must be serviced in dollars.

As the dollar rises, borrowers of dollar-denominated debt must raise more local currency to buy the dollars to service their loans. That puts further upward pressure on the dollar, distressing foreign usd-debtholders even more. It's called a "short squeeze":

https://www.lynalden.com/global-dollar-short-squeeze/

The entire world (including the US federal government) has taken a short position on the US dollar by assuming obligations requiring them to pay later in dollars. Ask any Ape on WallStreetBets what happens to shorts during a short squeeze, and you'll get the same answer: they get rekt.

The dollar spiked past a key technical level today.

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=DXY

In 2020, a similar dynamic took hold, with stocks, bonds, and gold falling in price as the dollar surged. We may not be there yet, but the scramble for dollars in China (and possibly all of Asia) is just starting.

I'm curious how useful voting really is. The usefulness of it really depends on if voters are disciplined enough to remove their opinion voting and vote based on an established, high-level framework. The latter still includes some opinion, but at least more rigorous and less opinionated.

I can see a couple outcomes from such a system:

- downvotes are guideline violations

- upvotes indicate relativity, not necessarily agreeableness

- no interaction would be common

All of this is centric to a users thought. I don't think a machine could be taught these things.
but everyone can still the the count - that is the main point here
It is behind a flag, with no time table when it will be officially supported. And no company ( apart from Facebook ) came up and said we will use it as long as browser supports it. Most are still in the AVIF camp.
I never had test anxiety growing up and didn't really empathize with why someone would (sympathized obviously). But solving a problem in FRONT of someone as they are evaluating me (rather than a normal collaboration) triggers a panic. The only thing that helped reduce the panic is repeated drills, which take a lot of time.
I had an article that had a big list, but unfortunately I can't find it any more. You can do some web searches and see that the brands with the largest price gains are "normal" while the brands with the smallest price gains are "luxury" cars.

You may do best with some anecdotal evidence, however.

I moved from the city to the country this year and needed to buy a 2nd car to get me to/from the train station once work went back in person. We were targeted for an October return, so my plan was to buy a cheap used car starting around July. I quickly found that cheap used cars don't exist, but certainly the ones that were the least overpriced were luxury makes, which I associated with concerns over long-term reliability - but I now think that was incorrect.

Once I gave up on used cars, I started looking at new cars. "Normal" dealerships were an incredible pain, especially once they found out that I was not going to trade in the car I arrived in. They all wanted high prices above sticker price, long waits, all sorts of games with add-on packages, etc. The two closest dealerships to me were Mercedes and Audi, and when I went to them I found no games, no markups, no giant crush of buyers clogging everything up, etc. I ended up with an Audi Q5 at ~$2k below sticker price (~$46k), the same price range I was being quoted for a Honda Ridgeline (well over sticker - and not even the top model).

In normal times it probably would have been $5k below sticker, but whatever. The return to office got delayed again - maybe early 2022 - so it now just sits in the garage getting dusty. Still has the new car smell.
So it's not a video lecture on Go specifically, but I first started learning itbecause I saw how it looked and how fast it ran while watching a Dynamic Programming series that happened to use Go for its implementations.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTjRGe0wRvI&list=PLVrpF4r7WI...

From there, I started reading about it more seriously here: https://golangbot.com/learn-golang-series/

And I've been using it and loving it ever since. There are one or two things that trip me up (slice manipulation can sometimes get me if I'm not paying close attention to my capacity and just pointing around, rather than copying) But for the most part, it's a fairly elegant language, and amazingly fast! For me, it's also been incredibly intuitive start working on asynchronous features.

The new inclusion of Generics is just icing on the cake.

> So to resuscitate my old code I had to implement a bunch of <*> functions and since I didn't really understand what it was supposed to be doing I couldn't do that.

But you don't really need any understanding of Applicative for that:

instance Applicative MyTypeThatWasAlreadyAMonad where
pure = return
(<*>) = ap

That will work for any type that already has a Monad implementation.

Also, as for understanding Traversable itself, I personally think it's easier to first understand it in terms of sequenceA than in terms of traverse.

> I used to be excited by programming language features instead of what problem I was actually trying to solve with programming. I'd spend hours condensing 10 lines of perfectly working code into 1 line of the most concise text possible (...) they should be impressed by what the program does for them, not what language features you used to implement it.

Interestingly, what made me go through similar evolution was the very language in which I was trying to do all those things, namely Scala. After a few years of trying to be "smart", I realized that the problem was usually bigger than the language.

So perhaps, it wasn't Go, nor Scala, who helped us in our realization, but life and experience?

NFTs are even more moronic than that: they are nothing more than links to external content - Tweets, images, videos, whatever. Meaning that everyone who wants to see and reproduce the content you paid a million dollars for only has to download and dump the corresponding blockchain... and also meaning that you are the proud owner of a bit of nothing when the external hosting service goes down.

If you ask me, NFTs are a combination of tulip mania, scams and good old-fashioned money laundering using art.
Apologies for responding to my own post, but if you do a Google news search for Evergrande the first link that pops up is:
