Do you have a starting point for generating useful vectors for full text search? To simplify, I have a 350k document academic database, with docs of maybe 500-5000 words. I would like to be able to provide similarity results as a form of "concordance".

Do sentence, paragraph, or full doc vectors work the best? Do things work better creating vectors from sentence vectors for longer sections, or have you had better results making longer vectors directly? Do different vectorizing algorithms work better on different sized sections of text?

I have not had much luck finding discussion or write ups on this type of stragetizing on chunks and algorithms to apply, beyond just people saying that yes that's how it's done.
What's crazy is that the USPS is using truck that have an internal combustion engine in it. They should use horses and pony's like the good old days, and never change.

Email has largely obviated the need for mail, except for physical goods, and like every organization, the USPS is evolving.
I think in this case that would expand to Ordinary Childish Deviousness, though.

Widely suspected is nothing but speculation, and intelligence agencies aren’t exactly moral. Apple cooperates with China, but do people care when they buy their products?

You’re going to have to give the names of the journalists targeted and the country instead of vague suspicions that you say are wide.

Cops have a life and death job. Sure, there are some bad ones.

Guess what? Among criminals, there are many, many more bad ones. Some are serial killers. Some are physical abusers. Some hurt people just for fun. Cops are dispatched to deal with them all, on behalf of the public.

So we should hold cops accountable, yes. But we owe the majority of them (the good ones) all the support we can provide. Because they don't get paid much, and they put their life on the line for you whether you recognize it or not.
Scenario A

- A guy he wrote codes for two hours,
- he got stuck, so went out and bought a coffee took him one hours
- during buying the coffee, he got an idea to solve the problem and solved

---
Should this 1 hour be counted as work or rest?

---
Scenario B

A guy he worked as a consultant (pay by hour)

- he was off for a day
- he got some idea during his off
- next day, he solved the problem for a client

= Should his off day be considered as work time?
(2019), but also this is an opinion piece that makes a lot of claims without any evidence beyond the libertarian ideology of its author.

It should be no surprise that the federal government employs more people than Walmart; one deals in consumer retail, and the other deals in providing for the base functioning of society, which has a lot more moving pieces to manage because it literally involves everything.

>"Government needs to be nimble rather than creating perverse incentives for higher compensation for work that could be done in more productive sectors of the economy."

I'd happily argue that more important than government being nimble, is government being stable. Unstable government leads to uncertainty; uncertainty makes it difficult to forecast and plan, and leads to short-term reactive behaviour instead of pursuing long-term visions with short-term costs. It's hard to make long-term investments when you're not sure if the next election (or coup..) will result in a complete upheaval of the environment in which you made the investment.

>"Government is a neutral party to uphold contracts and ensure general public safety."

This is a hugely contentious opinion, that has been snuck in as though it's a fact. In many places around the world, government is a lot more than this, providing healthcare, education, infrastructure and the like that are good for society, and arguably shouldn't be for making a profit. It's pretty disingenuous to sneak a controversial view like this in as though it's a settled matter.

"Black Cube obtains legal advice in every jurisdiction in which we operate in order to ensure that all our agents' activities are fully compliant with local laws," it said.

In other words they looked for every loophole or underhanded way they could get the information while staying just on the side If legality.
I didn't interpret the comment to be about not working, but rather about the non-linear nature of programming work. If you have 100 documents to process then you are halfway through after 50 and it will presumably take a similar amount of time as the first 50 did.

When writing code you might have written 10 lines of code in the past week, but the next day you write 200 because you've been thinking about the structure of the solution. In this way you might be working even if you're going on a walk or doing the dishes.

This isn't unique to programming, of course.

Not him, but I’d say the user experience is awful compared to others and your money isn’t safe. They hide lots of useful things, they can steal your money any time, and it feels extremely mentally taxing to deal with issues like them randomly breaking things or locking your account. It’s comparing a modern iPhone to the first edition of android, so much work, so slow, so unnecessarily complex to do simple things like unlock your account when they lock it randomly.
What is your title/job description? Are you more of a team lead/engineering manager?
I am not with at&t but with a very large Canadian provider that provides the same setup (Bell).

Yes, you can do just that. You can also use a commercial firewall with an sfp port.

SFP ports can be a little troublesome. There are a few standards (SFP/SFP+) and different link speeds.

The you need to know your ISP's specific info to configure your hardware. Bell uses pppoe on VLAN 35. You need your username/password for pppoe, which is not a given since the technician will usually do the initial config for you.

Another option is to use a media converter. They are very cheap and "dumb" devices, that simply converts the fiber to copper ethernet. You then connect using just about any router that supports vlans and pppoe.

If you also get bundled TV or Phone subscription on your fiber link, these will be on another VLAN and connection is much more obscure. Usually the logic is embedded in the all-in-one router they provide.
From normal user perpective you can, but technically you can’t. Tough comparison for politics.

Meh not sure what the big deal is with "self selecting" and "self defined circumstances". Perhaps you should make more arguments for it so I don't have to but you do you.

That circumstance I presented isn't actually as rare as you might think. It was a genuine use case for myself and actually opened my mind from thinking it was completely useless, to thinking it is a niche.
Agree on that too. I am yet to come across a use case that cannot be handled by overriding or injecting one's own factory.

The article treats the subject as an immutable law or truth, with sweeping statements like "The reality is that all women look better in makeup."

What seems to be completely absent is any realization that we are the masters of our own reality. One doesn't have to submit to this tyrannical notion of inescapble universal beauty, but wake up to the possibility of changing the rules of the game or indeed refrain from playing it at all.

After all, beauty is a proxy. Stop focusing on the proxy and start thinking about what makes you a good human being, then construct a beauty identity around that. Not the other way around!

The most successful people get to define beauty standards.

I mean, if you're a desperate, toxic person looking for a mate above all else, then sure, follow the article's many advice. But if you're looking to rewrite history, you're better off developing your own damn personality and growing as a human being.
Ok, I must have been living under a rock. I'm quite overwhelmed that there are 2 implementations of LSP for emacs. That's fantastic!

Does the fact that some people take moral issue with the actions of a single company mean that the work done in that entire field can't be interesting?

It was all over the spec, whole protocol was about encryption and ”Apple can’t access your images”. Otherwise whole flagging thing was pointless.
CI also cannot detect the downstream effects of some small changes.

I've seen plenty of subtle bugs get introduced by someone who has an overly simplistic view of some part of a system. And they expose a simple method to share their simplified view of some part to the world. "I believe you when you say that in all of your tests this array has a length of 1. This is a failure of your test cases. Don't add a getter method which returns arr[0]. Come with me and lets chat in front of a whiteboard."

The log4j bug might have been caught with more eyeballs. "Here's a small patch which adds JNDI support in log messages" -> "Whoa hold on - what are the implications of that? JNDI is complex". But of course, most opensource code can't afford to spend developer time on code review by multiple people.

Paris Crash Tesla Driver Says Car Accelerated on Its Own – Lawyer
"does the code work functionally" is a fraction of the overall purpose of a code review. If you rely solely on "does the code work", you end up with the average Rails app after 1 year: 10k line controllers, deeply entangled code, half uncommented code and half deeply over-commented code. Hundreds of comments inevitably end up out of date. Whole blocks of code might be commented out. jQuery is instantiated alongside React and 2 different versions of Angular.

I'll repeat that there's not a single code change I can think of, including comments and documentation, that can safely be merged without a review from a second set of eyes. This is exponentially true the more engineers work on the codebase. I can maybe understand why someone on a team of 3 or less doesn't see the benefit in having the overhead of mandatory code reviews.
I'm confused. Polars is built on top of the Rust of bindings for Apache Arrow. Arrow already has Python bindings. What does this project add by creating a new Python binding on top of the Rust binding?
> You make it sound like that is a long time.

It is compared to the claim that “a large margin is safe for a few months”.

> In Britain, the Fixed-term Parliaments Act of 2011 makes it unlikely there will be many elections held at less than 5 years.

Yes, but it assures that 100% of seats will be elected in 5 years, and that no majority is safe for longer than that and none takes more than a majority of the elections in that time to overturn.

> The evidence is overwhelming that the current majority is, at all times, ignorant, irrational, biased, bigoted and impulsive

No, the evidence is that effectively representative, responsive democracies produce the best results for their people. The US mostly fails on effective representation, and the proposed change would compound that by making it also fail on responsiveness.

> Big changes should come from majorities that manage to survive for several years.

Sure, maybe, that's why procedures that require long (e.g., multistage, with legally or practically mandatory delays) process for major changes arguably make sense.

But rendering any substantial majority effectively immune to change once established defeats the purpose of that. If the argument is correct at all, it is that big changes should come from legislative majorities that survive for an extended time because they represent a durable majority in the electorate.
I got a good tip for this once: throw the shampoo bottle out of the shower onto the floor. It’s ideal for remembering when you need to buy more shampoo, but if the shampoo isn’t empty, it will remind you that there’s something you need reminding of.
Most days I do a solid 4 to 6 hours of “real work” with a few hours of overhead, admin or management bs spread in there. But today?

Today started 2 hours earlier than most, and 14 hours later I’m still at work, now on a client support call because they brought down their database and we just figured out how they broke it. It took us about 3.5 hours just to get this far; probably at least another hour or two to get them back up.

So no, I don’t think so. The easy days always get more than made up for by the necessary sacrifices we all make on days like today.

Oh, and as I wrote this, I got yet another meeting invite for a totally unrelated meeting tomorrow morning, again 2 hours earlier than a usual start.

Can you imagine how powerful dfrag could have been if we had the internet back then? There could be a public list of files that don't change or get deleted a lot, a list of files that change a lot, that get deleted a lot, etc.

Then it could not only regroup files into contiguous blocks, but it could put the most stable files first so that subsequent defrags are faster!
How to Filter and Group the Blazor AutoComplete Items
It's not just the tutorials itself, I've learned the most from the answers on algorithms. Because it's designed for beginners, it was a good way to learn things like map() and filter(), which were gaps in my knowledge. Most algorithms learning site will skip through all that.

SSDs have their own logical to physical mapping tables. When you trim, it is telling the SSD you no longer care about that entry in the table so the physical space can be freed up. In terms of latency there is no seek time difference from one location to another hence defrag has no benefit. In fact defrag will just cause more wear.

When the description "just a PC" is applied to Steam Deck, it usually implies not just the x86/IBM-PC-descendant hardware configurations, but also the lack of strict software/hardware lockdown measures to prevent the use and execution of unapproved sw/hw. PS4/PS5/XB1/XSX are indeed similar to PCs hardware wise, but from this definition of "just a PC," they really aren't.

That sounds nice, where I work there's a deeply ingrained problem of long lived feature branches. In that situation every little nudge towards earlier merges is valuable, so we call that merge target branch "develop", only to be less intimidating.

After several years of "essential security updates" being unconditionally bundled with hostile, anti-user changes in both the desktop and mobile space, it is no surprise that some of us will start to assume that the security updates are not actually so essential.

With software from github or f-droid, I look forward to updates and check frequently, because I trust the developers to make good software and I can revert if necessary. With software from microsoft or google, I dread updates and disable them, because I trust the developers to make bad software with no practical means of reverting.
