Indeed since expectation values make the constant functions integrable you'd have to do some pretty wild things before things goes wrong. In fact any bounded function (with bounded derivative) is going to be fine.

I also wonder if differentiation doesn't have some nicer properties anyway, being a linear operation as well. Typically you can get quite far by showing things work for a sufficiently broad class of functions and just extending things from there. In particular you could use the Fourier transform, which trivially commutes with taking expectation values.

You can always try something abhorrent like sin(e^(-1/x^2)) or something to make things go wrong though.

Funny when I read that idea of natural language, SQL and 2 million I thought: "that will fail" "what a weird idea".

Don't be too salty, the idea was shitty from the beginning :-)
What server language today except PHP (and its forks) is actually designed for the web and works as the web was intended?

The implication of the question is that there's something designed into PHP that makes it better for working with web things. Why does the language need to be designed to work with the web? That part of any language can be filled out with a framework quite easily, and arguably that means it's much easier to change how the language is used. That seems to be the case with every major PHP application anyway - most use Laravel or Cake or Symphony or something. Just as most Ruby web projects use Rails, and most backend JS projects use Express, and Rust web projects use Poem, and so on.

I don't think there's a good reason to design a language specifically for web projects. If that's how PHP works these days (I haven't used PHP in a decade or so), I'd suggest that might be a bad thing. It's very rigid, and if the language gets anything wrong that compromises the design of every project that uses it. Languages should provide simple primitives that frameworks and libraries build on.
The comparaison with liquid ban and scanners isn't good rather, since they could argue that flight hijacking poses a far greater risk than a van hijacking.

But as we are on it...
I'm not in favor of x-ray nor liquid ban, it is to note forcing an x-ray scan is illegal in many juridictions, travelers should be given the choice of going through traditional search if they wish to. So here as well the comparison makes no sense since x-ray isn't mandatory to travel. And it is a questionable measure due to potential health consequences for frequent travellers put through it.

No liquid is another absurdity that came up at the height of anti terrorism efforts, one guy managed to concoct an explosive with a small quantity of liquids and all liquid containers above a certain threshold got banned. At that rate bans could apply to all sort of common things to want to carry with us. Such as clothing since some clothes can be made highly inflammable. All it would take is one creative criminal to somewhat succeed with that and we will have to swap our clothes with airport issued garnements. It's a stretch, but since we have no choice, i bet most of us would tolerate the absurdity once in a while so that we can get to travel.

I think x-rays make economical sense for airports so it got adopted. Ban on liquids didn't get much push back because it made security checks simpler for airports and leads to far more water bottles sales past the checkpoints. Airports are first a business.
The assumption here is that there ever was a state of cultural health to begin with. I really do not believe that that was ever the case, and if you start out from such a broken premise I really wonder if the decisions you make will move you in the right direction.

The bigger question for me is whether or not absolute free speech and true democracy are fundamentally compatible or not and I have not seen proof of that. Either camp is stuck in that it is either a prerequisite or that it is impossible without any movement towards a practical middle.
It very much depends on how code is written. A typical LAMP (style) stack wouldn't be any better on the cloud than it would on shared hosting. But if you can make use of serverless (eg lambda, S3 and/or DynamoDB on AWS) then that's where you'll start seeing some advantages.

https://murex.rocks is a static site that costs me pennies each month and has zero scaling issues. The site is fully automated too, built from CI/CD (Markdown converted to HTML) upon commits to a master git branch. But it was purposely designed to run on the cloud.

This isn't to say that shared hosting isn't a worthwhile option, just that cloud can be cheap albeit you do need to architect your project for using the cloud rather than lifting and shifting your existing LAMP stack and expecting that to behave the same.
I Wil admit this will come off as "omg nazi" hysteria, however I've always felt that nazis alongside every other fascistic ideology (including bolshevism).

With that said, one of the problems I've heard about almost unlimited free speech is the same paradox about tolerating the intolerable, but in this case it's having political entities take advantage of their free speech and knowingly break the law to silence others speech.

And in a way I think it's what is happening here (although not always by breaking the law).

Even though I support USA free speech I can't argue with that point without doing mental gymnast ics or setting up hopeful premises.
Gunrack NFT is dropping soon
> to discuss about the legal status is to miss the main point of Smart Contracts.

No.

Contracts only work because they are backed by a law court, allowing judgement by a (supposedly) neutral third party. That third party is able to rectify any points of law that might have been bent/broken.

That means that if someone commits fraud on the basis of a dodgy contract, you have _some_ chance of recovering your money/property and putting that person in jail.

Smart contracts basically allow people to hide gotchas in badly written/obfuscated code. So now you need to be really good at both legalese and which ever language the "smart" contract is written in. Its not like there are many accessible test suites out there to help a mortal.

I get the promise, but if I was moving serious amounts of money/goods/services, I sure as hell would be paying for a lawyer to draft a contract. Because if someone is going to destroy my livelihood, I want to make sure they go the fuck to jail.
Hm that seems to defeat the whole purpose of transparency and trustlessness? What is the point of a contract whose contents I can't read? Who would "sign" (interact with) such a thing?

But others said the same, so it may be true. Perhaps for saving storage/bandwidth, and you can simply verify that it is the contract corresponding to some source code that has been published elsewhere?

I love the lockdown, I get to WFH and not have to deal with small talk every day, mandatory company dinners, commuting through rush hour traffic smelling exhaust, getting up early and going home late, staying late because the boss is staying late, slamming coffee in the afternoon to stay awake instead of taking a nap, not getting any sunlight because I'm in the office during all the daylight hours, having to cram my errands into the same time as everyone else when the markets and stores are the busiest, eating whatever food you can get close to the office instead of eating healthy, dressing up for work, having to shop for work clothes, not feeling free to go on a non-work website because someone could see your monitor from over your shoulder, dealing with chatty coworkers who go on and on about nothing, dealing with coworkers who have loud phone conversations, not being able to listen to the music you want, breathing recycled indoor air constantly, not being able to adjust the temperature to what you like, not being able to inject comments into a conversation over someone who is dominating a room, not being able to yawn or close my eyes or pick my nose during a meeting... I should probably stop.
It's pretty irrelevant to derive any conclusion about mass public education systems based on extreme outliers.

No one will "become Bach" by attending a school with good music curriculum, and no school could have input a Bach-level talent and output a median musician.

Nobody in their right mind has put actual logic inside templates when doing PHP for a while now.

PHP has supported strict typing for a while now, making it also fairly consistend and error-proof.

There is nothing at all wrong with PHP and it's rapidly moving in the right direction.

An interesting thing is that ReLu (which is absolutely the most common activation function) has a zero derivative over half the space its defined, and backprop still works (most of the time :). There are leaky ReLU to give some slope to the negative side, but it seems in most normal deep learning networks this is not required, there are always some neurons that aren't in the off regime to "catch the error".

Not only Musk. I would love to see a brain imaging study of humans as their net worth gains orders of magnitude.

I have seen and felt the effects myself to a very limited extent.

I have heard Elon and others say in regards to the internet: "We are not evolved to handle this much information, and this much choice."

My intuition leads me to believe that the same could be said for having an absurdly large net worth. We just aren't evolved for it and one's behavior changes in weird ways.

I'll make a suggestion that is somewhat odd for HN since it is effectively poetry:

The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran

This little book stumbles into my life every 5 or 10 years and always reinvigorates my appreciation for the beauty of life. It is like being swept away by a beautiful piece of music - it can touch your soul. Then again, like music, it is not for everyone nor even repeatable for yourself depending on what mood you are in.
I think the iPad did win.

But more importantly, if you have an iPhone and a MacBook, will you be using an iPad at all?

I used to only have an iPhone and iPad and yes, I used the iPad for all my studying and annotations and stuff (with an Apple Pencil), but since I’m using a MacBook Air I barely touch my iPad.

I guess if you have kids who want to play games an iPad is still useful?
And what specifically is the idea good for exactly?
Really it should be required that the most visible number is the minimum amount you will pay in total if you cancel right away.
To answer the immediate question, I had a look and nooope, no <a name="">, not even <a> anywhere, that I could find. However I just (begrudgingly) realized this is somewhere text fragments can shine: https://leanpub.com/phptherightway#:~:text=Getting%20Started

To answer the bigger-picture question, the first thing I see (the above-the-fold part) upon loading the page (on both desktop and mobile) is a stylized ToC.
On the other hand, it's also bad when a new person comes in who treats all existing code as gospel and is afraid to fix things that are clearly messy. Or doesn't even see the need.

I think I actually prefer your type, at least they care about improving things, and they're going to make it theirs.
Why do you presume this is "hearsay PHP hatred"?

I (not parent) have PHP hatred. It is fuelled by decades of PHP development and -exposure. My hatred is based on failing projects, missed deadlines, burnouts, money stolen, severe downtime, and companies going bankrupt. PHP had a role (not the primary, mind you!) in all of them.
I think you are correct and I am struggling to understand why lots of intelligent people are missing the logical fallacy in their responses. I don't know the formal description but the logic is:

Shakespeare didn't have a teacher and became a genius, therefore nobody should have teachers and they will become geniuses.

It doesn't follow. Sharespeare like random other people were gifted in some way. If what others are saying is true, everyone in the olden days before widespread shooling would be amazing too. They weren't.

Why?

Because education is related to a whole load of variables. The support/lack of parents and the community they operate in. E.g. middle-class vs working class. Their nutrition level and ability to concentrate; the other kids in their classes who might support or detract from learning; the quality of the teaching in the school; and many other things.

Clearly the best way to learn is to hang around people who are passionate about their subjects but probably the next best thing is a school where you can get a balanced education that is hopefully partially related to the basic skills you need to get around in life.
You can say the same for >95% of the "self-improvement" book market.

This is a fair assessment. Its a basic escrow situation.

The only way it can be "automatically" verified is if there is a way to programmatically work out if the keys have been delivered to the right person. In ebay terms, signed delivery is enough, because the delivery company provides a signature.

But for a landlord situation its much harder. You need to some how verify the receipt of keys went to the correct person stated in the "smart" contract. The traditional way is getting the estate agent to look at the ID of the person and get them to sign a form.
And like all the other NFT advertisers, he keeps it as vague as possible and only talks about how they can be used for "many different things".

It's also interesting that below the tweet around 50%, 10/20 (from a quick scroll) reactions/answers are just people trying to sell and advertise the typical low quality NFT related things.
I wasn’t saying I don’t agree with any political messaging. I was saying it’s an objectively bad book to read by modern literary standards. Even those in this thread defending the Bible has literally said it’s not something you’d read cover to cover.
We have a problem with precious resources available progressively drowned in a noise of low quality resources.

Solution: somebody volunteers to create a platform where registered members contribute collectively in rating the single resources, and rating and clustering mechanism over the reviewers are implemented to evaluate those ratings.
Resources to encourage children to learn to code
You can manual include

I don't think that will work with any code that came out in recent years. Because it all expects that its dependencies are automagically included via composer.

In practice, every PHP based web application starts with Laravel or Symfony these days. So you are thrown into the composer workflow right away. And it would be a nightmare to fight it.

I use my iPad as a second display for the laptop when portable, it's surprisingly useful.

It's also kind of nice for keeping a game of baseball or something going on while sharing audio output with the main laptop, there's almost no display lag.
I believe big data can be disarmed best by strong privacy protections. Facebook already threatened to withdraw from Europe and it would be a shame to do away with free speech because of companies abuse some freedoms while speaking out against the freedom of others.
One serious downside to the iPad (unless I'm doing it wrong) is that you can't hyperlink text in an email using the Mail app. I would love to use my iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard to do email, but since I send a lot of emails with hyperlinked words, it doesn't work for me.

The only workaround I'm aware of is that you can hyperlink a word in another app, then copy/paste it into Mail. That's too much of a hassle for me — I'd sooner use a different mail client and enjoy better search while I'm at it.
Interesting counterpoint: a NN is not just activation. It's also learning, and multilayer stacks learn differently depending on depth even if they are entirely linear. This seems to be an artefact due to the optimizer in use (SGD for example). The jury seems to be out still on why this is.. the issue has been known since long, and I recently saw a short paper Yann LeCun posted about exactly this as well, they stacked a bunch of completely linear layers on top of a "normal" DL stack and got differences in the final system, even though you can collapse all the linear layers at any time to a single linear mixing layer.

It's important not to take this kind of thinking too far. 作戦 can't be analyzed into make-war, but it is quite clearly because of semantic drift of the compound.
