It's not whether temperature of fermentation affects people, it's how much it affects microbes. Every fermentation process is dependent upon microbes (bacteria, yeast) acting on a food source at a specific temperature range. Different microbes act at different temperatures leading to different byproducts. For example, with brewing and vinting, cold temperatures can inhibit the "good" microbes and instead accelerate the growth of "bad" microbes, and too much temperature can generate undesireable byproducts. It's often necessary to use methods to control temperature in order to get the desired reactions and inhibit the undesired ones. Otherwise you could get sick from drinking improperly brewed beer.

Once as a new grad I asked (after he gave a talk on the virtues of oss) why the newly released Wolfram language wasn’t open source.

He called me naïve, said that my question was childish, then asked for the next question.

If dunking on a 23 year old makes him feel good about himself, so be it. I couldn’t imagine working anywhere near him.

I wonder what he does behind closed doors.

Seems like a mistake to assume ability/cost of getting a new job is indicative of making positive contributions. A lot of hire-ability in Tech is based on brand (university or employer) and network. Tech is actually a very snobby industry. Where as it-least in Wall-St or Sales you are tied to P&L
> I usually go with "if one of us is on holiday".

I would expect this to get responses like "you need to take your phone with you on your holidays" or "you should plan your holidays so that they don't happen at the time when the application is most needed".

In my experience, having the bus factor of one was not a problem for the company, it was a problem for me, because I needed to do a lot of negotiation about when to take my holidays. (After a few years I gave them the notice, and then it suddenly became a problem for the company.)
If it was trivially possible, Firefox would already be doing it.

But there's always an arms race with stuff like this. Our robot butler would be able to figure out how to parse the web today, but the advertisers would completely change the structure of pages tomorrow.

Facebook used to have their ads wrapped in `<div class='advertisement'>`. Now, they're buried a thousand divs deeps, and the ads and content both have nonsensical, non-semantic class names.
Great, another open source tool purporting to solve time series analysis in an "automated way" that my manager will link me tomorrow and ask me to review (as an aside, attempting automated statistics of any kind is incredibly dangerous and misguided, but especially so for time series).

Why should I use this over Darts[1] or just Statsmodels[2], if I need more lower level access and diagnostics? Both of these are far more established.

I dislike that Facebook Prophet was chosen as a benchmark; it's not a difficult benchmark to beat for the majority of time series use cases. It signifies to me that this project might targeting cargo cult data science. Prophet is not particularly good at non-daily timeseries and non-seasonal timeseries. The paper itself admits this[3]. Moreover, it's just a generalized additive model that incorporates holidays.

I don't intend to sound demeaning here, really. But I'm trying to understand what the point is. This doesn't look like someone's weekend project, but we already have plenty of established projects which tackle this effectively.

There are three major markets for time series work:

1. You're an analyst with a lot of domain knowledge who needs to analyze daily, seasonal data but you don't have a strong statistical or engineering background. This person should probably just choose Prophet (again, the developers of Prophet explicitly acknowledge that it's designed for scalable good enough models by non-stats people, not for the best model given the data).

2. You're a data scientist with a good statistical background and you need to produce forecasts. You can afford to dig into what the model is doing and select a model based on a series of diagnostics and knowledge about the data itself. This person should probably choose a more complete suite, like Darts. The important thing here is developing good models quickly while being able to do more than just press a button.

3. You're a data scientist (or statistician) which a very strong statistical background who needs to produce the best model they can for answering a specific question. This person is probably going to use R, Stan, Statsmodels or PyMC to come up with something bespoke. They may or may not need to systematize it, but they don't need to produce quantity over quality.

How does this thing improve the state of the art for any of these markets?

Yes, a lot of scientists believed in hateful pseudoscience like scientific racism, eugenics and phrenology.

Your argument is a very common one but very flawed. Antisemitism, ultranationalism and eugenics aren't bad because the Nazis did it. It's exactly the other way round!

Eugenics are just as flawed and criminal when a Swedish doctor or a British politician advocate for it.

amazon does have a lot of revenue, but it doesn't have the extreme margins that companies like google and facebook have. they can't just throw money at problems the same way. amazon has similar margins to walmart, and only just exceeded the latter's revenue in 2020. would anyone argue walmart is the more innovative company?

You are underestimating the power of unix tools. A chain of unix tools can match or exceed the performance of C programs written by average programmers. That is a true beauty of unix and partly why it is still relevant today. The author has little idea about performance and doesn't understand how unix works; otherwise he wouldn't make arrogant claims like:

I'm not sure that's true that Twitter is bigger than LinkedIn, though maybe it is for HN users.

I don't personally have a LinkedIn account (and am thus blocked from using it for the most part) and I do have multiple Twitter accounts. However, from what I've seen of my friend group, random acquaintances and online stats aggregators, I'm in the minority.

From what I can tell, normal people almost all have LinkedIn while Twitter is mostly still just for people in activism, tech or journalism.
> That's a quick way to turn Twitter into Linkedin or Medium.

Will it, though ? It's not like it'd be replacing the core Twitter experience, it can be added as a link to a tweet "Here's a nicely formatted longer content". Now of course there are only 2 or 3 people i follow who'd be into that and not the smaller posts crafted for engagement.

What else does it let you do?

- To make transactions with anyone in the world without being blocked by a bank or a financial institution.

- To put your resources to use without having limits. If you have a bicycle, you will be able to join a distributed bike-sharing program, fully insured. You will be able to finance micro-credit programs for people in countries without having to go through tons of red-tape or corrupt middlemen.

- you will be able to be fully sovereign over your online identity(ies). Think of how easy it is to switch between server hosting providers. As long as you control the domain name, you are not forced to stay with a vendor you don't like. With blockchain identities, you will be able to do the same with service you use.

The only thing you are showing with your pseudo-criticism is that you are in quite a privileged position if you are okay with the status quo, and also you have no imagination.

>>>It feels like the military's historical solution to a lot of problems (forced, regular duty station rotation, with assumed interchangeability based on rank) isn't suited to the types of technical project it's now being asked to execute quickly and successfully.

This is my experience as well. We have combat-arms guys who would probably be exceptional infantry regiment commanders or fighter squadron commanders, brought into a combined-arms, high-level headquarters where they are expected to weigh in on things like EM signature reduction, and issues with how IT infrastructure impacts their ability to execute Command & Control....and they don't even know what most of the relevant terminology means. By the time they learn enough via OJT they PCS to another duty station.

Those don't capture total remuneration, as captured by the BLS. Since 1970 employees have received more of their total remuneration outside of wages, and these benefits are usually fixed cost.

More relevant is total cost to employ, also tracked by BLS [1]. This accounts for legislative changes that add cost to employ, which lowers money available for wages. Such laws are generally beneficial to workers, and there have been gains here too

Also the top is not some fixed group. Over a career a significant percentage of people enter and leave.

The top % contains so many people it's simply bigotry to claim their gains were taken from others.

The correct answer is that low skill jobs haven't seen the productivity gains that skilled ones have since 1970. Computerization didn't help plumbers or cooks increase output as much as it helped architects, accountants, etc.

If anything, Baumols Cost Disease [2] is pulling up wages for lower incomes beyond their productivity warrants. Otherwise they'd have similar income to the same jobs in 1950.

I totally understand your point and I think it's one of the reasons why GNOME's goal to become the "perfectly intuitive desktop" is utterly misguided. However, one thing which separates the interface of Windows from MacOS and Linux is continuous improvement. I'd rather have my desktop adapting to current times rather than stuck in old times and cite "compatibility" as an excuse. Linux desktops and MacOS has an incentive to experiment with their UI and actually improve. If some feature doesn't really click with its users after deployment, developers could just scrap it on the next release.

TL;DR Windows is also trying to have an ideal desktop which isn't driven by innovation but by how it was intended to be used in the past.
If I understand you correctly, biological taxonomy, a thing we've had for hundreds of years, and over which huge intellectual battles have been fought, is basically all about making scientists happy, and has little to do with the actual reality of a vast population of living things that is constantly changing over time.

I use some of these chips, and took a random stab at one of the files to see what it contained, a SPI-bus i/o expander. It looks pretty useful.

I usually write my own drivers, but that gets to be more and more effort if I want to make use of more sophisticated functions, plus I can make mistakes by mis-reading the datasheet or just counting wrong. I might be discouraged from using a function that I don't quite understand, but a pre-written driver might get me past that.

Note that these "drivers" are routines that talk to fairly low level hardware ports of a Linux computer, and I might modify the code for use on a microcontroller without an OS.
Perhaps you should remove your political colored glasses and consider things objectively. A company can be both remarkable in its achievements and have committed labor abuses.

> doesn't pay taxes

Yes, that's what R&D investment is. They "make" billions but reinvest all of it into growth so they pay no tax. If you somehow split off AWS and taxed its profits separately Amazon would just increase its R&D spending on AWS and go back to paying $0 in tax.

This is a good policy, by the way. You want to encourage companies to make use of their money rather than returning it to shareholders. That creates more jobs and results in more technological and economic growth.

In a shameless plug, I want to note that running these sorts of workloads on CPU using Pytorch got much faster (some results on a benchmark from this post’s author’s suite in [0]) in the most recent torch release thanks to the addition of a JIT compiler.

It's not hard to beat Prophet by >20%. As the paper itself states, it's designed for rapidly producing good enough forecasts at scale by domain experts with no stats background. If you have a small team consisting of domain experts, engineers and data science/statisticians, you should be able to build something which handily beats Prophet. If you're careful, you should be able to design a pipeline which can do the model tuning and selection in something resembling an "automated" manner (but it requires extreme care, and Prophet can't save you from the dangers herein either).

Prophet has a relatively narrow use case where it makes sense; not coincidentally, it makes sense at a place like Facebook where the sheer variety of problems to be tackled cannot scale to such a foregoing team for each such problem.

Prophet has received a lot of backlash for workflows it never intended, nor claimed, to be able to tackle. That's undeserved in my opinion. Zillow didn't lose money because it used Prophet, for example. But it still really shouldn't be used as a benchmark like this.
