Some people name this as a fallacy: "The fallacy of generalization from fictional evidence".

It's not very catchy, but it's nice to have some concept-handle for this oddly common mistake.
I think it's safe to assume there's a plan to exfiltrate the critical information to reproduce what TSMC has accomplished in Taiwan
Yeah, this is true and interesting, though I think a lot of (especially the high end) focus on Native American foods is on pre-Columbian cuisines.

Btw, If anyone knows any pre-Columbian restaurants for Italian and Indian cuisines, let me know.

The thing with cameras, is that there is a spectrum. If your camera is small, it's fine. If your camera is very large, it's mostly fine. It's when it's between the two that there's a bigger issue.
It's rational for chip making to consolidate as the capex grows. 5nm would probably not exist in volume today without a successful pure play foundry.

As a consumer, I just hope we stabilize with two or three leading competitors, such as TSMC, Intel, and Samsung.

ASML & EUV is a stronger example of a high risk gambit in an innovative field locking down the market.

You keep saying crypto has no value, but that is false. It may have no value to you but it has value to other people. There is no such thing as 'objective value', which is why there is also no such thing as 'inherent value'.

Some cryptocurrencies have 'valuable' censorship resistance. Cryptocurrency also enables the existence of DAOs. Just because you are fixated on a bunch of NFT scammers doesn't mean there aren't people who 'value' cryptocurrency for other purposes.
Installing apps is easy, built into the phone. And comes from a curated store run by a US company.

Did you know there is now a TDS interface for Postgres, so SQL Server clients can use Postgres natively?

If you must use Microsoft SQL Server, at least deploy it on Linux.

Microsoft's published TPC-H scores are all higher on Linux than Windows, and Patch Tuesday is agony for those who need an available database.

Oracle's Ksplice is also free on Ubuntu. Try to use XFS, as all the top TPC scores seem to be using this filesystem.

Great question and of course, this is in the works and we plan to notify users beforehand if this ever happens. We value your time and data, so it is only fair that you have access to it.

Is that a good measure? Is there any disruption that’s happened since the advent of speech that didn’t have someone standing to the side opining how this was a dumb and unnecessary idea?
In Node projects, in general I don't recommend using knex.js for data access, but their migrations facility is great.

By default it runs all of your DDL within a transaction, but in some cases where you can't run in a transaction (like adding a value to an enum type) it makes it easy to disable it: https://knexjs.org/#Migrations-API-transactions
It's also worth pointing out there's a ton of talk without requisite risk. Put no-vaxers in a hospital with their check book on the line if wrong ie pay a patient's med bills. Get flat earthers to pay for a satellite to take pictures on their dime. I'll bet a large percentage will walk from the challenge or suddenly get serious when they have real downside risk. Talking crap on tv or YouTube is what? Protected first amendment rights. Nothing more.
I don't really mind it if that IDE works seamlessly without issues, is freely available, and the project data is all in plaintext. I wasn't programming in 2005 but I have reason to think the Xcode experience really was that tight at the time

When I lose faith in the IDE and its abstractions, that's when I get really antsy for the ability to opt-out/do everything directly without its help
"Thinking in Bets" by Annie Duke describes this. One of the problems we have, societally, is talking in black and white. I'm right or wrong. It is extremely hard for anyone to admit they are wrong. In fact, a good way to push someone more strongly into their belief (regardless of what it is), is to tell them they're wrong.

Her approach was to start using confidence numbers or percentages, and being less black and white.

> "I'm 80% sure the it will be a sunny day tomorrow"

> "You know, I'm not sure about that. Have you considered the vast storm clouds and weather reports about the incoming rain?"

Both of these, by each person, make it easier to take, psychologically. You neither commit to something nor do you tell someone else they are wrong.
Because you have misunderstood the statement.

Vaccines reduce infections considerably.

This is something the CDC has repeated over and over. From the CDC's website [1]:

"In October, the unvaccinated were 5x more likely to become infected."

Not only that - 'breakthrough infections' of the vaccinated are more likely to be less severe, and infection severity is correlated with shedding, meaning, even the 'vaxxed and infected' are less likely to spread.

Vaccines do not stop transmission, but they definitely reduce transmission and have a very material effect on R0.

In fact, by far the largest limiting factor on R0 are vaccines. Far more so than masks, for example.

If you think about it from a systematic perspective, the advantage is reducing transmission is the 'big advantage'.

If a giant wave of COVID wallops through the country and everyone gets it, a lot of people will die even those that are vaxxed. 'Flattening the Curve' is a very real thing. If you watch the % hospital beds occupied, it gets scary sometimes, in some places.

By reducing R0 - especially keeping it below 1 (i.e. not growing in the community) - means you reduce the likelihood that people will get it in the first place (and not take up hospital beds etc..).

Omicron has a bit different characteristics, but it's much the same story.

>The free market and the march of technological progress did a better job than any moonshot project designed to solve digital literacy in poor countries.

Yeaaaaah. You know that had nothing to do with actually increasing digital literacy, and was actually directed at tapping into previously unexploitable markets right?

That mobile and telecom was realized before roads and secure ubiquitous access to potable water is not something that is impressive to someone whose sat through company meetings gushing over the value to be raked in by fee extracting developing markets.

>Many sub-Saharan and Southeast Asian countries have better LTE rollout than rural America does.

Population density does that.

>Everyone has a smartphone or tablet, made possible by the fact that cheap Android devices are really cheap but still effective. And that's because the free market doesn't care about the opinions of a bunch of committee members who all want a say in how the device is designed.

Android is also one of the most user-hostile computing platforms I've ever encountered, and I shudder to think of the people who have to tread their "first exposure to computers" being Android, then working their way back to a General Purpose computer. Android was never built as anything but a developer's portal to population of users. Nothing more. A general purpose computer, at least has utility as a springboard to conventions from which to bridge the gap to more special purpose computing regimes. Something, I might add, that that committee you disparage was more keenly interested in providing cheaply, robustly, and maintainable than any developer or architect of Android, or the handsets it runs on ever was.

>Devices either fulfill needs and make money or they don't and company goes broke.

Some problems don't lend themselves to profitable solutions. Free markets optimized around immediate profit potential essentially bury and write these problems out of the equation until there is simply no other choice, which is not guaranteed to be the optimal course of action in the long run.

>Just because they don't do computing like _you_ do, using a laptop, doesn't mean they don't have access to the Internet for what they need.

Correction: They can use the Internet for what someone deemed profitable to make available for them. The use cases that were not (General Purpose) remain out of reach.

It irks me when people don't fully render the positive and negative aspects of an implementation.
I agree, your version is much better and a lot less confusing.
> You can't upgrade in place.

The Postgres documentation (which is generally excellent) describes workflows for upgrading across major releases, including what can be fairly described as an "in-place" upgrade, via pg_upgrade and the "--link" option.

Upgrades without downtime can be achieved by using logical replication to create a standby instance running the new major release, then switching the new instance to primary.

And that's the bullshit, $30,000-toilet seat, parts-manufactured-in-every-congressional-district, Defense Contractor Special™ price. It should really buy you three or four aircraft carriers.
Haha not really. :) I was pretty much laughing at myself, responding to the commenter's idea that Oklo leadership shouldn't be spending cycles on building parameters with architects (i did - it's arguably important on a number of levels - security, regulatory, cost/finance/constructability, human factors, community relations etc...) but here i am spending cycles on like HN comments instead of other work which of course we do all weekend anyway.
I'm not sure if there was ever one specific event that made me 'convert' and stop doubting. I think it was just the amalgamation of everything that happened. I.e. seeing the existing team members interact with each other and myself and across the org. Of course not everything was/is rosy there either but overall it's just not a place where finger pointing happens on the developers level. We work together and help each other out. Nobody is going to say "sorry I don't have time to help you with your problem". You will most likely get multiple people offering to help you out.

The fact that there were no individual metrics to hit for each team member I think also contributed to this. Nobody is going to loose their raise because they spent time helping you onboard or debug with you instead of just making sure they hit their own metrics. Monthly birthday celebrations w/ cake and nobody blinked an eye that everyone was chatting and eating for an hour or two. A perpetually filled fridge and fresh fruit - I never had to bring lunch. Catered breakfast regularly (tho not every day). And the part that I couldn't believe was that this wasn't actually to make you stay at the office for 14 hours or something. Everyone still left at the regular times. This is the part I couldn't believe.

All of this will probably become harder here too as we grow more and more. And some of these perks are gone since Covid but I don't mind getting full remote working. I'll take that over free breakfast and lunch any day ;)

Nonsense. That is not what was originally stated. I'm not sure if you're intentionally gaslighting here or what, but the original premise of the vaccine was to reach herd immunity. That is what Fauci was preaching every day last spring to convince the populace to get vaccinated. Once it was realized that the vaccine was not immunizing the population, the narrative changed to what you claim.
microswitches are like $0.05 or less in large quantities, I don't think you can find an LED/phototransistor pair cheaper than that.
As the Butthole Surfers teach us: "It's better to regret something you have done, than to regret something you haven't done."[1]

Or to put it another way: money comes, money goes - the real opportunity cost here is your time, and the intellectual fire burning obviously burning very deep in you somewhere that propelled you to take the application process as far as you already have.

So with that framework in mind - and since already you already have the opportunity lined up - go ahead and get that PhD. Who knows, you just might learn something, and end up making a dent in the universe. If it doesn't turn out to be to your liking - you can always go back to the fleshpots of FAANG.

Right. In other words the amount of vulnerable wait time is a direct consequence of wanting to fit ever increasing amounts of cargo on fixed infrastructure.

How do truck shippers protect their wares? 1 driver per truck with eyes on the load all the way through. If they have to take a nap, it's in the truck...

Two things:

1. No one in European Union wants to be in war with Russia for Ukraine. I highly doubt it even if one of it's states was fighting a defensive war against Russia.

2.The word Turkey comes up just once in this article and Greece well, not even mentioned. Two of the most faithful members (that both pay their fare share in NATO) who happen to be in a pre-war situation with each other. NATO would not engage in a situation between it's members according to its article of association.
At this point, if you’re in a place with wifi and internet, why not just get a cheap Chromebook? I think of them as a good OLPC v3.
Your rewriting of history is though.

unsafe Rust has its own UB pitfalls that don't exist in C nor Zig, particularly in regards to the lifetimes of references [0] and preserving provenance through experimental apis [1].

[0]: the compiler is allowed to emit extra reads/writes to references so a mut and shared one to the same memory location cant be alive at the same time, across threads, and across sometimes non-obvious scoping rules.

[1]: [pointer::set_ptr_value](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.pointer.html#method....) is used by containers like Arc for `from_raw` in order to carry over aliasing, mutability, and other location meta data.

unsafe Rust is also less ergonomic when dealing with concepts that go against the borrow checker like Pinning for intrusive memory, ptr::read/write and ManuallyDrop for controlling unorthodox object ownership/lifetime, and MaybeUninit/NonNull for facilitating certain data layout/access optimizations. Such designs often can't be wrapped in safe-Rust without introducing runtime overhead the patterns were used to originally avoid. Languages like Zig and C however make these patterns natural or event pleasant enough to consider it over unsafe Rust.
>Because you have misunderstood the statement.

“Our vaccines are working exceptionally well,” Walensky told CNN in an interview on Thursday, Aug. 5. “They continue to work well for Delta, with regard to severe illness and death – they prevent it. But what they can't do anymore is prevent transmission.”

I did not interpret her statement or misunderstand it. I quoted her directly.

Also, R0 with Omicron is on par with measles at 7-10, is it not?
Why? What happened?
I grew up and had a fair amount of exposure to Native Americans who lived nearby, powwows / dancing.

It wasn’t until I moved that I realized that most Americans have more exposure to a long list of foreign cultures than Native Americans.
They're the same. So square + circle, cube + sphere, 4D hypercube + 4D hypersphere, etc...

But cross-sections don't look the way you think they do. So if you draw a 3D intersection through the 4D case, it looks much like the 2D intersection of the 3D case, etc...

In all such "intersection" diagrams you don't see the spheres in the corners of the cubes. The conceptual diagram on that page showing the high-dimensional case shows the corner spheres and the middle sphere somehow "squished out" in a spiky way.

This is not at all what happens.
The words we use are important, because public opinion tends to matter quite a bit with these things, and public opinion is shaped immensely by words and their connotations (remember death panels?). If sci-hub is said to aid in the pirating of papers, it is doomed. If instead its purpose is said to be to make publicly-funded research accessible to the public for the benefit of all, then there's at least a slightly better chance of its surviving.

> You are taking a perfectly innocent -albeit stupid belief and tying it with an entirely unrelated reprehensible one.

There are obviously significant differences in magnitude, but explicitly rejecting reason is never what I would call “perfectly innocent.”
Depends on if you look at it based on a narrative that the former-staff wanted people to hear, or if you base it on the truth [1][2]. Specifically, this person states that I was in a position to "abuse my power" at freenode, such would mean that the statements he and others made in the past saying I had nothing to do with freenode until I "came in with lawyers" untrue, no? It's probably not worth spending cycles to research, but I'll leave these links if you're interested.

That said, a person simply can't defeat the cryptographically secured names of Handshake, so even if I was the boogie man, unless I have found the One Piece of Quantum CPU and harnessed its chakra[3], I'd be hard-pressed in fulfilling the boogie man role. ;)

I edited the above comment instead of replying here (whoops). I realized that you thought the structure was glass. No wonder. It's not, it's steel panels. Modular construction. There are optional solar panels on the exterior, maybe that's what you saw.

Bitcoin isn't BS when it's a first moving customer, even while we are actively working with plenty of other customers you'll recognize well, when the time comes to announce. It takes time.
>Wildgust confirmed that Finnemore’s solution was correct. He himself set out to solve Cain’s Jawbone first by typing out the entire novel, making a note of every literary reference he could find. This didn’t work. Then he searched libraries for copies of the book to see if any contained markings to help him. None did, but eventually he managed to find the answer.

>“Tracking down the correct solution for Cain’s Jawbone was a risky venture, and one peppered with possible pitfalls,” said Wildgust. “I can say no more on the subject, but eventually I was satisfied we were in possession of the correct solution.

Yes, I took this to mean he was looking for an answer key somewhere, and eventually found it.
When investors are the victims, white collar criminals go to jail. We'll soon (re)learn if mere customers have that kind of juice. IANAL, but I'd guess they best they can expect is be party to some class action settlement and the criminals get some token fines.
Spring Boot is not the same thing as Spring, and is indeed recapitulating all of the mistakes of EJB (I guess it's been long enough that the new generation of developers doesn't know about the problems). You can still use vanilla Spring though.
I took a class freshman year on ethnology of native American tribes.

At one point the professor was talking about Athabaskan tribes and what they ate. Pretty much all animal, especially during winter.

So I asked him how that worked, because according to health authorities we were supposed to be eating 5 fruits and vegetables a day. His response was they ate a lot of part that we don't usually eat from animals in modern times. Organ meats and even the contents of the stomach. Which presumably covered what was nutritionally needed.

In the app you can choose a patient (useful for families and recordkeeping), optionally have a doctor virtually supervise the test, and then it walks you through the test. You can also view a history of all your prior tests.

I am still upset that they canned GLOW. I think the folks who decide to kill shows at Netflix severely underestimate market faith that they’ll keep a show around — as others have mentioned, there’s little more frustrating in the TV space than a show that leaves mysteries and plots hanging.

Considering they have a lot more flexibility than your average network, I’m surprised Netflix hasn’t made movies or mini-seasons to wrap up stories more common. That would be a huge improvement over what they’ve done with a lot of their original content that didn’t quite make the cut.

How can I discern my standing as an Amazon customer?
I recently had a big burst of returns in my Amazon account. It would be disruptive to me if I were to be “fired” as a customer in ways I have heard about. Is there an official or unofficial way to guess at the standing of my account? (Previously I would have been confident that mine was a trouble free, profitable account, but recent returns may have turned its profitability temporarily upside down.)
