Great project! How does the performance compare with conventional CPU/GPU based inference? Those devices are usually a lot higher power (and bigger/more expensive), but obviously do not benefit from specialization.
Reflowable text is fine for conveying information on a tiny screen, but that’s about it.

When your screen is bigger than a page, reflowing the text is almost never what you want because long lines are hard to read. Thus even though computer screens aren’t limited to the size of a sheet of paper, you want to wrap your lines at paper-width (or better, book width) anyway.

Note that programmers typically define an effective page width for source code by enforcing an 80-100 column limit.
Best practices for speeding up your website
Why should an org expose details of private infrastructure publicly? For anyone with more than a few internal tools this becomes untenable or unreasonable quickly and sharing a wildcard cert has diminishing returns as its shared between apps, teams, etc.
Has everyone here forgotten that the reason Trump was impeached was because he was withholding support from Ukraine to Blackmail Zelensky? Has everyone already forgotten that he has deep russian ties and admires Putin?

Make Your Own React
> 1. Execute the code (duh), which at minimum uses CPU resources

In this case it really is quite a minimum use of CPU, as React's createElement function doesn't do a whole lot. As far as I know, in a production build it's really just going to do a teeny amount of work to create an object (which looks like {type: Login, props: {}, /* ...some other properties */}). "Evaluating a component" isn't something the user ever does directly. The React runtime is the only thing which ever invokes a component's render method.

> 2. Perform relevant hooks and call lifecycle methods, including those which have side effects (hint: “effect” is in the hook’s name, for this reason): starting timers, loading resources, calling non-React APIs, pretty much anything goes by design, even if you follow all the rules and other best practices.

> 3. Prepare for a new, potentially concurrent, render. This may speculatively interrupt/pause a render in progress which would otherwise complete without interruption. Which may, in turn, cause seemingly unrelated components to be called again, cascading this entire set of potential side effects to them, and so on.

> 4. Call any components in that cascade whether they’re well behaved in your control, or epic shit show dependencies.

It won't do any of these things. React won't try to actually render a component (call its render function) unless an element referring to it ends up being returned by the render function of another component which gets rendered.
I LOVE thinking about how my diet/exercise impacts my body. So don’t take this as discomfort - trying new diet/exercise combos is literally a major hobby of mine.

What on EARTH do you eat to hit those macros? If I eat the minimum healthy calories (1,500) entirely in broccoli, I’d be >50g of protein (~0.6 g/kg at 160lbs). What kind of meal plan gets you low net carbs AND low protein? Are you drinking olive oil or something?

In 2020 I found out (through 23andme) that I had a half brother and another biological father. It was an extremely surreal experience. I can understand where the author is coming from for sure.

It did give me a completely different perspective on things. My bio-dad apparently had an awful life as an alcoholic, deep in constant poverty. He had a troubled relationship with my half-siblings and in general it sounds like I missed a bullet lol

It made me appreciate my father a lot more. We had a lot of issues, and he was pretty neglectful… but it could have been much worse! I’m much nicer to him these days ;P

Within my own org of ~50 people, 15% have resigned/contracts ending during Q1 (after 15% in Q4).
Of the remaining 85%.. 20% have been around since before COVID / 65% joined during COVID.

Only 3 full time senior engineers with 2 years or more tenure.

We've grown during COVID but we've also just burned through people.

Reminds me of one of my personal heros, Bruce Ames[1] who invented the Ames test, a relatively cheap biological assay that tests for mutagenicity[2].

Essentially it turns out that tons and tons of stuff, both synthetic and natural is mutagenic to some degree, but we tend to think about it as a binary instead of a spectrum. His argument was that some things that are technically mutagenic, like pesticides and fire retardants have a net benefit in spite of this(e.g. pesticides make a better diet more financially attainable which has a bigger impact on public health than a very small increase in the base rate of cancer), but we lump them all together. It's why California's Prop 65 is just completely stupid; we lump fairly benign things like coffee and wine in with things like asbestos.

The quote I always think of is, "if you have thousands of hypothetical risks that you are supposed to pay attention to, that completely drives out the major risks you should be aware of."

Stainless steel passivation is a chemical process to remove free iron and contaminants from the surface of stainless steel. The stainless forms its own passive film upon contact with oxygen - it is not added.

You make a good point about the surface primarily being chromium oxide.

> "Why not? I am Russian citizen and I support my country."

Did they not support their country until a few days ago?

One problem with such political gestures is that they have even less nuance than a tweet, which makes it easy for people to misunderstand the point being made (and also easy for others to deliberately misrepresent what is being said).

Perhaps like a README or LICENSE file, we need a POLITICS file that maintainers can put in their repo to list which countries and policies they support, to avoid any ambiguity. The absurdity of that idea, though, suggests that the only winning move is not to combine national politics with international software projects.
Yes that's true, but compared to stainless and carbon steel it may only contain trace amounts of the metals that are the focus of this study.

>"Less people are willing to gamble their lives. The threat of prison is more effective than the threat of losing some money."

Since you brought it up... reductio ad absurdum: The threat of execution is even effective than prison, shouldn't we 'spring for' that instead?

As per my sibling comment:

I think that a fine which meaningfully reduces an individual's means is possible, and preferable to using prison sentences to instill fear.

My view is that the extreme sentences provided for in legislation are causing many non-guilty people to plead to lesser offenses, which is a real problem. I also think that we shouldn't be crowding jails and prisons with people who have committed civil offenses.

What Happens When an Elite Public School Becomes Open to All?
Well, since I posted this I can answer how I ended up there and the reason is rather simple.

We mostly use cast iron for cooking, except for cooking anything that is acidic (tomato, lime etc.) for which we use stainless steel.
So, got curious if stainless steel reacts with tomato or lime or not, since after all it's a metal, an alloy but metal.

So while I was bored of doing what I was doing, searched and found this, which was new info for me. So, decided to post it..

As simple as that... :)

Yeah tell me about it. I actually made a mistake, they raised it by $600. The landlord acted so surprised when we didn't renew our lease. When we left, the landlord listed it and rented it out for the original lease amount. I'm guessing those people can expect a big rent increase when their term is up as well.

As some dude from Baltimore who has just picked up a second gig there. It seemed to me that these are normal questions asked of you in most interviews. In my daytime position at the first gig I have interviewed technicians and have asked similar questions of them. It's not about culture fit. It's about finding their answer to basic customer service questions. It would make sense that a customer obsessed company would be focused on a set principals they have found success in.

Speaking of the research, the recruiters email you the principals and specifically mention to you to review them and to consider them during the interview process. They even send you a document about the STAR method of interviewing to help you have a smoother interview. To me as a guy from Baltimore who doesn't know anything half the people here do. I don't think the interview process could have been smoother.
That doesn't make any sense. Intel is also a huge producer of high end chips.
IANAP but I've done a lot of reading about this.

> "nothing happened before because that's when time started" feels like an acknowledgement of the limitations of our human understanding.

"Nothing happened" is not the correct answer. The correct answer is that we don't know what happened because before you get to the big bang, our current theories of physics stop working. If you run the equations of general relativity backwards from current conditions you get to a singularity and at that point you can't go back any further. That singularity is called the "big bang". But we know that this is (almost certainly) not an accurate model of what actually happened because we know that GR is (almost certainly) just an approximation of some as-yet-undiscovered theory of quantum gravity, just as Newtonian mechanics is an approximation of GR (in the case of weak gravitational fields).

> So here's my follow-up question: Obviously we build an understanding of the universe based on observations of the data. And sometimes the data doesn't match and we have to upgrade Newtonian Physics to Einsteinian, or introduce Quantum Mechanics, etc. So are there comparable/equivalent investigations/experiments going on today that reveal numbers/observations that are basically fundamentally unexplainable without looking beyond the realms of our understanding of the limitations of our universe?

They're trying. The big problem is that all of the low-lying experimental and theoretical fruit has been picked, and doing experiments that will actually advance fundamental physics (i.e. whose outcomes cannot be predicted accurately by GR and QFT) is fantastically difficult. The math turns out to be really hairy too. No one has been able to figure out out to quantize gravity so that GR and QFT can be combined into a single theory, let alone propose an experiment that could test such a theory. It's a major problem, almost at the level of a crisis. Fundamental physics essentially has made no progress since the standard model was finished 50 years ago.

Good critique. What I was try (and failed) to communicate is that you should have a project that your interviewer wouldn't know how to make, rather than puff yourself up with hot gas. Having a project the interviewer couldn't make means they already know you have something to contribute to the team that they cannot. Acting like you are God's gift to Earth however is only useful if you are quickly trying to end an interview you are no longer interested in.
They'd need to support a second graphics API, which is certainly non-trivial. The licensing permits anyone to do the work themselves if it's that big of an interest, though.

> if someone has access to data the assumption is they are able to read it.

This is not the case in most production for two major reasons:

1. Row-level security is expensive and hard to manage, so in most cases, users are granted the select privilege on table level. But indeed, it doesn't mean they should have access to all the rows in that table.

2. Power users should not have production accounts all the time. The production accounts should only be activated when power users have to perform the changes during the production change window.

So financial institutes usually generate two kinds of reports for audit/regulation purposes.

1. Report on the privileges and roles, which tells if a user should have those privileges and roles. This is a periodically static report.

2. Report on the actions a user has performed to see if these actions are part of the changes. This is a dynamic report in which we have to capture the select statements.
If you are buying a 120$ CPU for a budget build (which realistically is what most people going for an i3 are building) then you don't need those feature. You can have a dirt cheap CPU with a dirt cheap mobo to splurge on the best GPU you can fit in your budget.

It would make no sense to buy an i3 and then pair it with expensive memory. 3200Mhz is plenty.
You're welcome. Good luck, and try your best. If you don't give up it will work out in the end.
