Steve Jobs was one of the most micromanaging CEOs I've read about. He overruled many CTO decisions during his time at Apple, both at the founding of the company and upon his return to the company years later, so I wouldn't use him as a comparable example. You'll rarely find a good CEO that isn't intimately aware of the current actions and goals of each other executive. What you're describing would be the role of a CMO, which Foley is not.
I never had a TRS 80, but I had the UK equivalent, a Dragon 32. My Dad bought me one for £80 when the company went bust in the 80's.

That set me off on a lifetime of tech or tech-adjacent work. If not for that I'd probably be an accountant. Thanks Dad.
Because buying him out would be expensive. Much cheaper to convince him to step aside.

I don't know anything about Peloton or its management, but the main takeaway from this deck is something I already knew: (1) private equity guys are assholes, (2) who are obviously compensating for something inadequate three feet below the nose.
For industrial applications definitely, but at home there's few people who power motors with triphase or five phase power.

Ever eat at Subway? There's ~9% sugar in just the bread. It's generally safe to extrapolate this as being the case for most ready/packaged/fast food.

In any case, it's very illuminating to look up nutritional info of things you eat every once in a while.
Quite a lot of restaurants in the UK also spell it as kebop, so I'd have thought many people would also be able to guess kebob.
Driverless cars would be very useful; it would mean I can use my time in the car in a more useful way, like reading. Now I have to use the train for that.

But maybe that's also the risk of driverless cars: it would make them more attractive than they should be, because they're really too inefficient to be able to afford them as society's main form of transportation.
I wonder how much wear on the system disk is caused unnecessarily by taking continuous snapshots.

I think that you would like to limit the actual data to persist to the data that needs to be be persisted — that which can't be recreated quickly, purely from other objects.
The dependency confusion article on Medium was a great read.
There is rarely a right solution but there are always wrong ones. Searching for pareto optimal contours is great but implies the existence of pareto pessimal contours where N poor solutions combine to make something maximally rubbish.

Software dev is not in a design space where all things are broadly equivalent with small pros and cons to choose between. It's more a discontinuous surface with orders of magnitude of cost/benefit changes as one meanders over a given cliff.
I'm not sure I fully get the question.

The landscape of romance novels might be getting different now, but from what I used to see, a lot of the older romance novels feature mainly standard heterosexual romance. So I'm not sure why there would be a term that's overwhelmingly used as there generally wouldn't be such a term?
Probably why you should be skeptical.

Every generation changes the meanings of words and thus degrades it to the eyes of the older ones (ie "literally", etc.). I think with the internet this process accelerated, and now some important words such as "trauma" are used for wildly different experiences, as the article states.

The more interesting point, which is also in the article, is whether we are sort of glorifying emotional responses nowadays. It certainly feels that we are promoting victimhood as a quality, and that the zeitgeist now favors those who scream louder rather than those who internalize their feelings.
A typical academic report with a huge blind spot. The work focuses on the opioid supply chain. But there would be no supply without demand. They completely overlook the demand side: why do so many people want to take opioids? It’s pretty clear they’re experiencing physical pain and/or mental and emotional suffering. Why not look into what is causing such huge demand? Typical backwards logic——“The floggings will continue until morale improves.”

You just explained exactly what I assumed is going on. Great, Wayland has a bright extensible future, but right now it doesn't solve anything so special that common users (or distro owners) desire moving over, hence the low usage of Wayland.

Not a problem with Wayland, it's just as you say, not there yet.

The biggest difference between our two projects, is the effort you've put into training your own model, which I think is amazing.

One of the technical issues that you pointed out, is that a model trained on still images, shouldn't be expected to work on video. While I did not train a custom model for this this project, I'm current working on another DNN model for a completely different purpose, where I think feeding frame deltas into the model, will improve the outcome.

As a hobbyist, I would reckon for porn and the like, analysing frozen frames is probably just enough. For violence however, I would agree with you and say that some effort to encode motion would be essential.

Focussing on NSFW content generally, I would guess, depending on the scale of your project, that you will forever run into 'edge cases' for NSFW images, even before you run into the soft wall of subjectivity.

I agree that the tech is improving all the time, and I think something like this can be made to be truly useful one day. Possibly soon. But it would need a large, active development team, a great deal more compute, and a LOT of data. In much the same way that no home/garage coder can hope to put together a model like GPT3 right now, I would think that a foolproof NSFW classifier would need more resources than you or I have access to at this moment.

But things change all the time.

Thinking about what you're doing, one thing I might suggest, if you have time to develop it, is to add some kind of 'recording' mechanism to your plugin, so that the users themselves can add to your dataset... But you have to wonder how many users will allow that! XD

I'm also wondering if a Firefox extension is the best place for your model? To that end, I would suggest putting the app on a server (which is what I originally wanted to do with my hack) which will give you the opportunity to crowdsource data collection. People might be more willing to volunteer data in that way (in a similar way to how people use https://builtwith.com/).

You're also very welcome to take the UX work I've done on this opensource project (because this hack was ultimately just a UX experiment), and plug your model in. If your model and trained weights are available, I'd like to try and create a branch myself, if I have time.

Also, as hobbyist building knowledge, I hadn't heard of `EfficientNet Lite` before.
I'd been considering Darknet - https://pjreddie.com/darknet/ for embedded stuff until reading your post.

Value is super broad. Value as in a person values? Or value as sharing knowledge on the internet?
While I could think of plenty of adjectives to describe this deck, amazing would certainly not be amongst them. It's the traditional hit piece from activist funds. It looks pretty. It reads well without having to think to much because well, it's not heavy on substance. They want the company to be sold but they fail to present a convincing case for why it's the correct strategic decision.

There is nothing on Peloton competitors, nothing on the market trend. They rightfully point that Peloton failed to properly forecast market demands but nothing on the future outlook and how Peloton production capacity and stock align with futur predictions. No real analysis of why the company which is profitable would be better able to produce value if it was bought out.

My key takeaway from it is that Foley is bad at PR. Gosh, I hate this deck and I really hate what activist funds are turning finance into.
> I've met folks that can drink a lot without seeming jittery

I know at least 2 people who had that; they consumed 2-3 pots per day and had no visible side effects until they did. They both had the same symptoms after about 10 years of doing that; all of a sudden (even after 1 cup) heavy anxiety attacks 'like having a heartattack' (or at least what they thought one might feel like) and insomnia. They cannot drink caffeinated beverages at all now; it immediately ends their day and one even has xanax with him at all times for when this happens (drinking something you did not consciously notice caffeine being in there).
I recently made a post here trying to decode my ADHD diagnosis. Unfortunately my post got flagged. Somehow a lot of people have internalised the “ADHD” label without ever sincerely questioning if it’s the environment that’s the problem.
Ah yeah, that's frustrating to me as well. The network is now the OS, and it's proprietary.
The DAPRA thing doesn't do that really. It was a proposal to do iffy virus manipulation from Peter Daszak that got turned down. Whether such research went ahead anyway is unknown presently. Maybe Daszak knows? You'd imagine he might.
Apparently a normal firmware update isn't possible for anyone who already got hit by this, because it gets stuck in a reboot loop which prevents the firmware from being updated.
That would be definitely great for passengers, mail, goods, but I think for raw materials it should just pick the nearest factory? Or at least have it as a preference.

Also I would also love for cargo being able to be transferred between competitors. Ideally natively (for passengers at least) if the stations are near enough.
Someone made a constraint based sketcher for Blender: https://github.com/hlorus/geometry_sketcher so that is fun..

But of course using a mesh modeling engine for CAD is not the best idea. You generally do want to work in B-rep, if not for precision then for exchange reasons (e.g. export electronic component models as STEP to add to PCB software, import a whole board STEP model from PCB software to build a case for the board)
Pardon my ignorance, but is there any app/client/software that takes the interference out of the equation by encrypting (or at least encoding) the content in transit?

Doing so would be possible over vanilla SMS as well, I guess.

That's because the working class is more likely to be forbidden from having coffee at their job location. Folks with desk jobs just drink it at their desks.
Back in the old days you could take out your battery, too. Technology is changing, and in some ways it's definitely not for the better.

I had a Samsung Galaxy S5 a very long time ago and the expandability was very impressive. You could plug in headphones, a microSD card and get new batteries for it. The only real thing I didn't like about it was Samsung's TouchWiz skin, however I am sure that could have been fixed with an alternative ROM, especially given the popularity of the device.

It's a real shame that companies are tying perfectly working phones to old degrading technology.
During the pandemic, I got a pole for my house since I couldn't go to classes anymore. I stuck with it for a while, but unfortunately the pandemic slump took over and I haven't been as consistent as I'd like.

Pre-pandemic I used to lift a lot at the gym. It was my primary form of exercise for years, mostly powerlifting movements (squat, deadlift, bench). I've just started going back to the nearby gym again, 2-3 times per week. It feels great to be picking up and putting down heavy things again! Highly recommended.
There have been both blunt and sharp political forces in play. As far as I know, CIA never operated this way in northern Nigeria, yet that was one of the anti-vax hold-outs where polio was kept alive.
Ah, yes, like the good old “we sent these soldiers there and we will go to prison for their crimes” which never happened.

Soldiers:

- aren’t naturally occurring phenomena

- just fires at anything that moves (though it wasn’t gp’s idea, so you may add “with a rifle” suffix to it)

- did not decide to fly to Libya and shoot “hostiles” all by themselves

To my knowledge you don’t. But SMS messages natively only use 7-bit ASCII. Sending emojis requires both carrier and device/OS support, because it’s impossible to represent an emoji using pure 7-bit ASCII.

As an aside, Unicode SMS messages fit far fewer characters per message (around 70 as opposed to 160), so most mobile devices still default to 7-bit ASCII unless the message can’t be represented as such.

It's not bitter, it's reality. Dodging inconvenient truths because they make people uncomfortable is exactly the issue I'm trying to describe. The massive divide between what people say they do and what they actually do.

But if you don't believe me, do go ahead and create a fake dating profile. One in which you show economic fragility (which is the point of the OP article) yet that you're very much in touch with your feelings.

Enjoy the crickets. Nobody wants you.

Hence my point: be attractive, economically successful and only then might you also express some feelings. The thing you're missing here is "economically successful". You describe it as a basic life requirement but I made my remark in context of the article, which describes millions of men for which this is out of reach, even if they try. So the "mature relationship" doesn't apply as they won't be in any due to their economic status.

And as this lack of economic success leads to a lack of romantic success, they sink into a depression, start drinking, and then kill themselves. None of which apparently is worrying, instead the worrying part is saying that women select for economic success, as this sounds shallow, bitter or even offensive.

It's not offensive, it makes total sense from both a biological and cultural perspective.

I came to Hicks as a 13 year old in 2003.. when his material on the Iraq war got a second lease of life. Looking back, he was a critic of American imperialism - the "look, he had a gun" sketch for instance. That kind of criticism lasts. Not to mention the presciently pro-drugs take.
> I don't recall similar stories about Bill Gates

I don't know about yelling and vendettas, but he has a checkered relationship with the open source/hobbyist community because he imposed proprietary licensing on his BASIC implementation despite the computer hobbyists of the time working more on a FOSS model. When hobbyists copied his software despite the license, he wrote an open letter claiming they were stealing from him. However, the rampant copying also meant Microsoft Basic became the most popular variant which solidified Microsoft's market lead.

> Thinner? Thanks, less battery.

I think we're slowly getting back to normality with this though. The peak of thinness for Apple was the iPhone 6, and that was a disaster. It was a great example of too thin. Now I believe they have gone back to the thicker iPhone 5 aesthetic, with a bigger battery and a more solid design.
Really?

I accidentally configured Windows Phone to use ASCII instead of UTF-8 for SMS a while back then the first time I tried to send emoji the phone chucked a wobbly and told me it wouldn't send due to a character set error. Once that was fixed everything worked fine, and I don't get the indication I'm sending MMS.
Anytime you send something in utf-8 you send an mms if my memory is correct. SMS only works with ASCII and thus english language.
I remember reading about another, pretty old, microkernel OS which had persistent processes. It was probably a capability based OS. Anyone know what that was?

I'm curious about what you think economics could be based on (especially since its clear you don't subscribe to wild eyed optimism regarding near future post scarcity economics)?

Not seeing the "labour theory of value" style reasoning from non-Marxist economists; if anything I'd have thought the criticism was the opposite (purely market based measures of purely extrinsic value, with any structural change that further decouples purchasing power from people or work assumed to be relatively unimportant, macro that assumes unemployment is a signal for the priority of inflation targeting, not underused capacity to create value, micro-view of capitalists substituting capital for labour and labourers substituting labour for leisure according to their relative (expected) prices looks very different from Victorian assumptions about iron laws of wages etc). Modern economists haven't abandoned the idea of labour productivity as influencing output (and nor should they) but they've conceived vastly greater roles for credit, "human capital", roles of monetary or fiscal policy, corrective taxation and redistribution and even basic labour-drives-change models incorporate ideas like efficiency wages and search costs.
Both my previous Yallo and my current Salt plans were unlimited, but restricted to 40GB before throttling in the terms and conditions. Maybe it has changed? (It's very hard to find detailed terms and conditions when looking at new contracts.)

> I also like to point out that browsers pioneered tabs because the GUI toolkit and DE developers failed to do a good job at opening multiple documents well.

Windows and macOS had tabbed interfaces long before browsers made them cute. This is also an irrelevant distraction from the conversation about trust levels.

> This is an extra layer doing what the OS should be offering.

As pointed out by a sibling, this is an OS provided tool. I run macOS and I find containerisation an annoying distraction from doing my front-end dev work. I see why you might want it for back-end work and I feel your frustration at being forced to use a VM to support a Linux feature in an OS that doesn't share the same feature (or provide a directly comparable alternative). That would be nice.

I don't think it's relevant to the web vs OS trust level conversation either. Containers might support better OS-level sandboxing, but they're still open to the web and to siphoning off user-generated data to the cloud.

The core thing we should collectively work towards is a mind-set (and tools) that better supports users owning their own data more often, and vendors making tools to support that data, rather than monetising it independently of the users they provide tools to. This was the norm through 'til Hotmail and Yahoomail took off; it swung exponentially away from user-benefit when Gmail took off.

>The "Lump of Labor" fallacy is just that, a fallacy. Economic gains are not zero-sum.

One of the consequences of women entering the labor force is banks will lend on the basis of two salaries instead of one. In a world of constrained housing supply (which seems to be most of the west) this means prices will be bid up to match the joint income.

This looks awfully like a zero-sum outcome to me.

> all the network interfaces are effectively useless when the system wakes up

This is - and probably always will be a problem with networked software. You should program as if TCP connections could drop at any time, for any reason. Browser tabs get backgrounded. Laptops go to sleep. Cell phones roam, and go into tunnels. Servers have temporary net splits.

Most high level tasks can be retried safely. Nonces and things can be used to safely retry almost anything else.

I miss the simplicity of IRC, the way slack and discord smoothly transition between online and offline states is graceful and intuitive. That is how almost all software should behave.
