I had to read 3 times to get it: They’re asking within 15 minutes of meeting the doctor about their symptoms and providing their personally identified cause and seeing what the doctor does. Whereas before they would go through the long drawn out process of following the doctors recommendations and getting no progress because the doctor misdiagnosed them.
Computational theory was always hard. What is different now is that we see a lot of confluence to practical applications, and people who haven't exclusively trained for it find it hard to parse. It was previously in the realm of math - now there is some drift towards modern software engineering.
Funny things is that sometimes science fiction publications lead to real science innovations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosynchronous_orbit.
> Meanwhile, shoppers have been spending at record levels, unleashing all the money saved by not traveling or going out — and their cooped-up pandemic anxiety — onto buying things

I don't think its all money saved from not traveling and going out. I think a large percent of the savings had to do w/ the generous unemployment benefits and stimulus payments. If you look at the person savings rate in the US, you'll see two huge spikes around the time of the transfer payments and then level near pre-pandemic levels in the last few months.

Strange it wasn't mentioned as a possible cause.

[EDIT] The reason that its important is that a lot of articles talk about "supply" or "worker" shortages as though its some naturally occurring innocuous condition, and not a result of policy. If you think its just money people saved up from last year, then everything will even out. Instead of buying a car last year, you'll buy it this year. But it ignores the introduction of 12 trillion dollars into the system (or around 30% of the current money supply). Its unprecedented and it's the reason you've seen financial assets rally to well past pre-pandemic levels. And for some reason, we think financial asset appreciation not based on fundamentals is positive. But this is beginning to creep into other assets and people are beginning to notice.

Bikes without brakes are illegal in traffic where I live, and rightly so, I'm a long time bike enthusiast and these fashion statements are downright dangerous, both to the rider as well as to other users of the roads.

That it even needs to be pointed out that operating any vehicle without brakes is unsuitable for traffic is a bit strange to me, but there you go.
I've always wondered if the difference in tone between French and English that I usually perceive on forums has something to do with French being my mother tongue. Indeed it usually feels like there's more snarkiness when people speak French, and the discussion quickly turns to a battle to know who's the smartest, all the while leaving the criteria of what defines being smart unanswered.

You don’t need to go to MIT or Stanford… assuming you’d get in. Boot camps are extremely expensive per hour. Some are 12k! I can go to school for 12 terms at 9 credits per term with that money. It’s almost all the credits you need for a bachelor. Yes it’s a cheap in state school, not MIT, but it’s easier to sell a “Bachelor degree” than “did a boot camp” no matter where they come from when trying to get your foot in the door.

Now time is a different thing, but I don’t know if dumping 12k in a bootcamp gets you there in better shape than quitting your job and building your own plan of study.
I did something like this, though it wasn't public space exactly.

I had to live with a work VPN that routed all traffic for all RFC1918 addresses into the corporate network. Because we had acquired companies over the years with their own RFC1918 choices, and not all was integrated and renumbered.

Since I wanted to be able to reach my own home gear at times, I used 192.0.2.0/24 for my network. Not technically RFC1918, but not used in public, either.

I still remember the incredulity from one of my friends saying "but, but, you just took someone else's addresses?" and I said "sure, but whose? does it matter?" and then he looked it up on rwhois and started reading the company name... he got as far as 'Internet Corporation for Assigned...' and then he stopped and threw something at me. Ha!

There are a number of non-public but not commonly used address spaces out there, I suspect most of them would suffice for getting around Chrome's RFC1918 blocking. Though it's possible they have another heuristic for determine what constitutes a 'private' address that includes space other than the officially recognized RFC1918 subnets.
Chegg seems to have sorted this out with textbook questions?
On the flip-side this approach sounds kind of like premature optimization. You don’t have to understand the entire path from pressing buttons on a keyboard to a program causing photons to exit your monitor. You instead trust that large parts of that chain just work.

If what you’re doing works via script tag, the odds of Vite/CRA/etc not working for you are extremely low, so why worry about problems you might have before you ever have them. It’s perfectly fine to opaquely trust your tools while focusing on the details you actually care about.

In another context, no Java course ever starts off with explaining “public static void main(String[] args) {…}” and students just “cargo-cult” it for a while until through other exposures to various bits of functionality through natural use they build a context through which to eventually circle back and easily understand what that crucial bit of code actually means. And that’s long before someone would consider trying to get a deeper understanding of what the compiler is doing! “Welcome to CS101, we’re going to start off talking about byte-code and intermediate representations” would have a success rate of literally 0%.
Sure, on that point we're agreed. Our perceptions (distinct from sensory input) are dependent on a conceptual framework / paradigm / model. But I didn't say models were useless, I was pointing out the profound flaw at the heart of typical economic models. Classical economic theory reduces the messy reality of human interaction to a handful of simple pseudo-mathematical axioms, then proceeds to build complicated formulas and algorithms atop this unreliable foundation. It's only quite recently that real-world complexity is (finally!) entering the picture, thanks to things like the Santa Fe Institute. It's reminiscent of the Copernican revolution.
Sure, fair enough, but it's not generally seen as anything to do with e.g. reliability as a business partner. I used to do a lot of work in parts of the world like this.
>> An application sits at the front of the dependency graph. Nothing depends on it.

In many cases, applications depend on other applications.

This can easily been seen in most Linux package management systems and also for many applications that act as more user-friendly front-ends or automation for command-line utilities.

Examples:

* Debugger front-ends

* Package management GUIs

* Multi-media processing pipelines

* Many others
Well, it is called corruption. Not by every paper every time, but it is. The implied point the author of the piece is trying to make is an equivocation of British corruption with African corruption (whatever that means, Africa is 3x the size of all of Europe!) which is of course nonsense. Anyone who has spent a fair bit of time travelling and living in other countries knows that this[0] index is essentially correct. I know it is for the countries I've been to and I've been to quite a few.

It’s mostly used in cloud environments in my experience. Where you’re codifying everything (infra, security etc.) into a CI/CD pipeline and automating everything.

In healthcare they are a lot slower to fully embrace cloud and CI/CD. So you have a lot on prem data center or hybrid cloud where you’re less likely to see teams fully embracing DevOps.

I’d start reading up on this stuff as healthcare is (slowly) migrating.
What I'm advocating here is not for optimized code. Only for non-pessimized by default code.

This kind of code does not tend to be rigid as you might imagine. Quite the opposite. Since it doesn't introduce a ton of premature abstractions and stays straight to the point, it tends to be flexible and easy to change/adapt.

You are still thinking in terms of a false dichotomy:

- Flexible but slow

- Fast but rigid

But it's a false dichotomy.

You don't need optimizations to get high performance software. Computers are very fast. You just need non-pessimized code.

It's funny. People use "computer are very fast" to dismiss all performance concerns. But this is not how we should think about it.

"Computer are very fast" means we don't need to optimize (as in micro-optimize on the instruction level) code to get high performance. We just need to get the clowns out of the car.
I think you are right. David Perell has a great article titled "Peter Thiel's Religion" (https://perell.com/essay/peter-thiel/) which doesn't even mention the word "Catholic". This would seem unlikely if he identified as such.

I've had a rim fail during braking on a descent, that was one experience I really do not want to repeat. Fortunately it all ended well but you can imagine my surprise.

If anyone is reading this and wondering, I've run a Radeon RX 5600 XT for about 16 months with no issues at all. Fan noise is super well controlled (Sapphire Pulse three fan model.) Power draw was generally below 115 W. (Performance is roughly comparable to a GeForce RTX 2060.)

More recently, I upgraded to a 6700 XT. Rock solid stable, excellent performance, great cooling. Haven't really watched power draw closely, but I think it might be closer to 130-150 W. I'll try to remember to check this when I play games after work today. But if you care, you'll go read reviews anyway! (Performance is roughly comparable to a GeForce RTX 3070.)

Both were/are powered by a 13 year old Corsair 620W power supply. Almost all my gaming is done at 1440p.
Your resume would get pretty barren if all you do is fixing bugs. Shipping features/products is how you get promoted.
I find that doesn't really capture the difference. In programming, the building part is fully automated. You press play or type a compile command and wait. If someone wants a build estimate, you should give them the time it takes to compile an deploy. Code is blueprint. Writing the code is all engineering, R&D, design and architecture and it usually entails figuring out how the system will interface with countless protocols, legacy systems, details of user's lives etc. It's nothing like building something that is already fully planned. It's a lot more like researching and planning all the details.
I wonder if anyone took the time to fork the repos on another Git provider.
Rather than seeing Notion as a Google Docs alternative, it might be better to see it as an alternative to Atlassian Confluence or other wiki softwares. I can certainly say that Notion was a much better fit for us than something like Confluence was for use as a team wiki.
I can easily read and understand most texts from that period. It does feel and sound "old". The grammar is pretty much identical.

It's sometimes difficult to distinguish between a grammatical error and a grammatical "difference to the standard", for example in a dialect or even Creole language. But if it hurts a native speaker, it may very well be a mistake.
One does wish the cloud network were a little more exposed to the tenant so we can do fancy stuff. Amazon's EFA is as close as they get. On the other hand I suspect Google of having bog-standard merchant silicon switches and maybe custom silicon NICs in their latest and greatest machines but for the most part off-the-shelf stuff at the host as well.
While that would apply to simple maths questions — 16x16 is always 256 — I don’t see that applying to HackerRank programming challenges, where the challenges (last time I used it) are essentially “produce correct output from this mostly-secret input”, and they don’t even mind which language you use to do this, never mind what variable names you use.
>retool whole industries and economies in a short time-frame

It's a general pattern with this type of book. They're probably way too optimistic about what you could accomplish in the absence of refined raw materials, tools, etc. even if you had a lot of the basic knowledge in some form. Even if you weren't thrown in prison as a wizard or crazy person, making even WWI-level weaponry or antibiotics in a world without even the concept of standardized manufacturing processes would be challenging to put it mildly.
The header of this website clearly says "ECUMENICAL AND INTERRELIGIOUS AFFAIRS".

Now, if "ecumenical" and "interreligious" were really a potato/potahto thing, would there be a reason for using both side by side... I'm sure you see my point.

The event is called "Muslim-Catholic Interfaith Iftar Dinner". Interfaith, not "ecumenical".

I didn't watch the video itself. Does the bishop call this relation "ecumenical"?

I don't argue with what the common use is, or seems to be (let alone in the US, where I don't live).

I'd only insist that this particular common use - however widespread - is kind of incorrect, or at least inaccurate, misleading.
The short story "The Man Who Came Early" by Poul Anderson touches on that theme as well. A soldier is transported back to Iceland of about the year 900 AD.

>You have to consider that the field faces significant practical challenges when it comes to applying the scientific method. Nevertheless, I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it, cognitive behavioral therapy does show results on par with commonly prescribed medications.

Yet any sort of talk therapy is almost as good as CBT, and psychiatric medications lose effectiveness over years since their development. The former leads me to suspect that the therapy isn't the point, it's a psychological connection with one's therapist. The latter leads me to suspect that most psychiatric medication isn't "fixing the problem" so much as re-rolling a few stats such that the user can feel different for a bit, and hopefully thereby pull up from their metaphorical depressive nosedive.
But given the existence of Harvard in the US rather than Finland it seems like the US primary and secondary schools are producing better results.

Praising an education system as ‘it’s good enough to let you escape somewhere else’ isn’t encouraging!
I'd wager that has something to do with jumping the shark.

People feel the need to chat about 10x developers when they don't even agree what a 1x developer is, and when they do present a definition, that definition is a function of (company, team, project, existing code base) which means there are more possible instances of 1x developers than the amount of developers who have ever lived.

Everyone is better off if they just ditch the "10x" which has connotations that programming nerds will latch on to and just use "highly performant dudes".
> I guess if you're writing a website or something then I wouldn't worry

Despite popular sentiment on HN and Reddit, a website is not a piece of software that can tolerate slow code. Unless you are ok with your website dying when 100 people visit it at the same time, or otherwise investing in a complicated "cloud" infrastructure to make it possible to have more than 100 concurrent visitors.
I have a personal site with a simple blog, list of personal projects, and a resume.

It's HTML and CSS.

My "stack" also includes some Python because I wrote a static site generator, but that's only for convenience.
I believe the reason Tesla gave up is because it requires a lot more infrastructure (expensive) than superchargers and is mechanically hard to implement (though they did show working solutions).

Also, it is a logistic pain since all battery exchange stations need a stock of batteries to charge, the size of which will depend on a lot of parameters.

Also this requires standardising the battery. Turning it into a "API". Tesla is a very fast company and introduces changes constantly to their process, unlike others whould wait for the launch of a new model. Standardising on battery model is incompatible with the Tasla mindset.

But a model like this is plausible. You would no longer care about the battery. You would no longer own the battery. If batteries were standardised, the infrastructure (not necessarily one company) would take care of the entire lifecycle of batteries (production, charging, maintenance, reuse, recycling). It could work but it is too early and technology is moving too fast.
They weren't paranoid, they were right. The DOD specifically explored single orbit satellite grabs as a shuttle capability. I'm not sure if they ever made it a requirement though.

But on the flip side of this, you don't know your internal workings better than they do.

Just because you live in your body doesn't mean you know how it works. I drive a Civic, it doesn't make me a mechanic.

Diagnosis is tricky. Especially in a system as complicated and interconnected as the human body. People often have a bad tendency to misattribute effects to recent events.

And let's say your conjecture of why they dismiss you is true. That it's because everyone else is an idiot and they're not accustomed to dealing with the brilliance that is you. Everyone thinks like that. Everyone thinks they're the bright shining star who knows medicine better than the doctor. You were not the first person and you won't be the last who walks in with reams of printed out papers on the very thing they're sure is the problem.

They have no way of knowing if you actually know what you're talking about unless they put in the work of figuring out what's up with you. So yes, you could be right, but you could also be wrong. And the work is the same either way.

It's the only way, IMO. I am someone who tends to drift every few years from manager to individual contributor. Here's my take:

As an engineer, I refuse to do tests and take home projects for interviews unless the company also offers to pay me for my time and the problem seems immediately relevant to the domain. There are few other fields one would ask to to perform your work product for them before hiring, and few that it would matter (being a chef is an example that comes to mind, but there are others I'm sure).

As a manager, solving gotcha problems is rarely indicative of someone who will perform good at a development job. Give me someone who shows understanding of my stack via experience and understanding my business. These efforts to screen at this level by untrained people tells me the hiring manager is too disconnected from his hiring process, or just too lazy. All I want my HR team to do is scan resumes for at least some relevant experience before passing them on to me, and I provide them with plenty of examples, both on and off stack sometimes, of what that might look like. If I was going to suggest a take home project or a quiz app like this, I would already have dedicated enough of my time into vetting that person that I'd probably just invite them for an interview instead and do a live coding exercise with them.
I am based in Japan and naturally Balmuda makes quite an impact here with their home goods. It’s not entirely surprising that they teamed up with a Japanese electronics company to make some lifestyle products. I suspect the phone will have reasonable sales inside the market but nothing sustainable. It appears to be more of a “look what I got” lifestyle accessory for people in their 30s.
