I also think Janis Joplin can rightly take credit for recording the definitive version of "To Love Somebody". I mean, the BeeGees version is good, but hers is otherworldly.

Similarly, Jimi Hendrix can surely claim to have recorded the definitive version of "All Along the Watchtower".

Actually, there's got to be a pretty long list of songs written and recorded by Dylan that somebody else recorded the definitive version of. PP&M covering "Blowing in the Wind" comes to mind.
> There's an embedded ambiguity in your sentence in that there are two kinds of failure.

Fair enough.

In 2008 somebody asked me if I wanted to try cocaine. I didn’t. He eventually moved on to heroine and his life is now utterly “failed.” in the worst sense. My life is good.

In 2013 somebody told me I need to buy as much bitcoin as I can. I didn’t. That guy is now a billionaire and I’m still an average dude.

Personally I see those two situations as basically the same: decision -> outcome.

There is a continuum of outcomes and the “fail” end could be really catastrophic, for you, your finances, your life, loved ones, possibly even the whole planet in the extreme.
> being under pressure is generally not good for people’s ability to reason calmly - another reason not to make it so high stakes

Q: Could be that being able to "reason calmly under pressure" is something that a future employer might well be interested in?
It seems pretty safe to assume that anything you create in public forums (and someday maybe "private" ones with data-sharing arrangements) is or will be used as training data.
Still standardized tests are the most fair and least gameable way for admissions. Just because there is some issues, doesn't mean everything else isn't infinitely worse.
>However, there is very limited evidence that SAT coaching actually increases your SAT score. The NACAC did a study on this and they found that average gains of test-prep students is ~30 points (this was when the SAT was 2400 points).

IIRC SAT's equivalent of Matura in Poland, so I'll be talking about my case

I've been taking advanced math exam and I had some time + some money (like 10% of minimal wage) during winter break and I decided to buy 3 lessons on analytical geometry cuz I've been terrible at geometry, but since that was analytical, then I've seen a chance to get into that

I've attended those 3 lessons, did some exercises and guess what

on official exam there actually was a task from analytical geometry and I managed to do it and receive full points, which basically increased my score by 10 percentage points (that's a lot, I'd say)

Saying that 10% of minimal wage spent was equal to 10 perc. points is naive, but you get the point

What if I were attending those for whole year? 2? 3? hard to say.
I grew up not terribly well off and I knew somewhere in the back of my mind that college admission depended on extracurriculars and such - I never really thought much about that until I grew up, did relatively well for myself and had my own kids. Then I found out just how much these extracurriculars cost and how much parental guidance is involved in sticking with them. My kids did sports in high school - but the busses don't take kids to and from the school in the off-hours that sport practices take place, so I had to drive them in early and pick them up late. That was an option for me - it wouldn't have been for my dad. The only reason they made the teams in the first place, also, was because they had been doing rec league sports since they were little kids and were already competitive going into high school (we knew plenty of kids who tried out for the teams and didn't make it). We've sunk who knows how much money into private lessons/coaching/one-on-ones, etc. None of this would have been possible for my parents, even if we'd been the type of family that did that sort of thing.

Thanks for the great question. Andi works well for keyword searches but where it really shines is when you give it more context. The key reasons for a chat interface are that it's simple, familiar and uncluttered, and reveals information progressively.

* Chat is minimalist. Part of the problem with google is "information overwhelm" - all the clutter and distraction in results.

* It's a super easy and familiar interface. Gen-Z users especially tells us they prefer messaging apps and visual feeds like Instagram.

* Combined with visual cards, a chat UI gives you progressive-reveal of information.

* conversational search long-term provides a natural and very human way to explore and refine results. Humans are really great at querying each other and maintaining context. And long term that's the aim here.

When you think if sci-fi AI, they are always conversational. It seems likely that's what the future will look like, rather than a page of truncated links with a lot of ads. So that's our thinking for the conversational interface, and we're super open and excited to hear more feedback on it! :)
I'm interested in whether federated learning can bring ML to situations where you don't want to pool all the data in one spot for privacy reasons. Say you run a B2B Saas business in seperate tenancies and in each tenant contains sensitive information about that client (eg about their clients). Could you run a federated learning model such that it could learn in each tenant and improve the overall model but not share any of the sensitive information between tenants?

All Bling, No Basics – Why Ukraine Has Embarrassed the Russian Military
that may be true for colleges looking at local feeder schools ("northwestern knows that my high school doesn't have grade inflation"), but I don't know how that idea scales nationwide or internationally. To steal an example, how does a college in Seattle know that a high school in Illinois has grade inflation or not? is that tracked anywhere centralized?

you could certainly look at past performance of students from that school but that turns into a "legacy system with more steps"...
One would hope that if admittence into these schools is truly based on merit, then they'd pick the best regardless. I mean, what if Inuits turned out to be the most gifted genotype of humans WRT intelligence. Would it be wrong if Harvard became 80% Inuit? Presumably the student body would be smart enough to retain the culture that works and dump the stuff that doesn't, at a relatively conservative rate. (Personally I think elitism itself is what these institutions are defining/producing/protecting, and math ability is (relatively) easy to measure. I personally would love it if MIT started feeding us Presidents and Senators instead of Harvard -- or maybe better, if Harvard really kicked people out for failing to learn calc by second year.)
You aren't wrong but honestly I'm having a hard-time envisioning a target audience for this device besides the ardent homelab crowd, or existing Microtik users who just want to eliminate one more piece of gear like a normal CCR from their setup and move it into the server itself. I don't see many "larger customers" moving to something like this instead of competitors. It's not like it's priced out of homelabs; $200 MSRP is the price of an entry level 2x10G Intel card and I'd consider that table stakes for actually adventurous home networking.

The bandwidth on the interfaces isn't high enough to match most enterprise customers needs -- 25GBe/40GBe had pretty marginal market penetration compared to 10G where you don't need hyperconverged solutions, and beyond that most major hyperscalers and others have skipped straight to 100G as far as I can see, to leverage economies of scale. And the CPU complex and ASIC together aren't powerful enough with enough resources to offload serious "service provider compute" workloads to; they even note specifically things like it reaches "line rate with Jumbo Frames", where most of those other solutions aim for line rate @ MTU, so I'm suspicious of that wording. And on top of that you need some actual dedicated engineering (operations, engineers) to utilize a solution like this versus just reserving AWS instances with ENA adapters or whatever. Anything this can do, something like Bluefield will just do better in every way, if you need the hardware yourself.

So I legitimately have a hard time envisioning anyone other than random nerds buying these. Any large customer is probably better off just going with Nvidia (Bluefield) or Intel (Mount Evans). But hey, for two 25GBe ports at the price of a normal 10GBe card, as long as I can pass them through directly I suppose I can handle RouterOS or whatever, and if the software gets more advanced that's cool too. And if it gets more people on the whole converged infrastructure bandwagon, sounds good!

Not quite the same as an Ivy, but UC Berkeley (top public university) is doing just fine with disproportionate representation of East Asian Students. Still prestigious, still a great school, and still stocked with hippie coops if that’s your idea of the school’s culture.

Ivy League schools are a bit different. Part of the value is access to capital, which means maintaining a wealthy community of alumni. The legacy admissions are grotesquely unfair but they do happen for a reason.
Not all recycled water is classified the same, and there are plans for it to be potable in CA in the future. It makes sense since our drought is not going away, and there's not enough money to build enough desalinization plants.

EDIT Since I can't reply to dead comments, it's not just agriculture that causes water shortages. Climate change is definitely at work, and most likely the main culprit.

0. What use would a break of a random OTR user's AES-128 be if it took millions of dollars, years and a significant chunk of all the memory that exists? And only a single session key's worth.

1. Does that not mean that NIST considers AES-128 secure?

2. Who exactly thinks that 1536 bit DH is breakable by nation states? The closest I have heard is 1024 bit DH. Note that we are talking messaging here where a break gets you one users messages.

3. Exactly what sort of attack would be possible against OTR using a practical SHA-1 collision?
Just an interesting anecdote on the predictive power of standardized tests:

When I took the ACT in 2006, I scored around a 24 or 26 for composite score. Not very good. I didn't prep nor study for it because I was pretty apathetic about school and did my best to coast on whatever natural talent I could muster. Since my score wasn't very good, I retook it several weeks later. About halfway through I realized I was given the exact same question set as the first time I took it. I had of course not studied nor prepped for the second time, being the apathetic teenager I was. However this time I score around 32 or 34 or so. I don't remember exactly.

What was different? Why did my score go up about 8 points? Better mood that day? Which score was the "real" one that best represented my abilities?

Did I eat a better breakfast beforehand? I recognized some of the questions but of course I never expected to see the same questions a second time so I didn't prep for that. I didn't prep for anything about it.

I wonder how many kid's college admissions results are ultimately because of one bad or good day? I suppose the other lesson is if you get a bad score, try again. You only need one good score.
He got lucky, he only wasted $40k. Some people waste some of the best years of their lives chasing startup ideas, paying huge opportunity costs and retarding their progress in life. He got off cheap.
$40k learning exercise. And great job shutting it down sooner rather than later when it would have been $200k and your marriage.
If there are shortages and people in developed countries will hunger it’s for government to step in with regulations about wasting food. Last year we had 40% of food in America thrown away. There won’t be a drop of 40% in food production because of the war in Ukraine not even close to it.

> Chickens lay eggs. It is a fact of their life, there is nothing exploitative or bad about it

It seems like you don’t know much about the poultry industry in general. Your statement is like saying — to use an analogy — that human women give birth to human children as a fact of life, and that it’s ok to force them to give birth consecutively for decades without a break. Left to themselves, chickens would probably lay about 25 eggs in a whole year. In the industry, they’re forced to lay more than 300 eggs a year. There is simply no way that this is not constant physical abuse (even if you ignore battery cages, starvation, light exposure, etc.).
I grew up poor and I achieved some of the highest scores state wide in my country's standardised tests as a child (we get tested at ~8,10,12,14). A lot of my peers at my school were from social housing. My assessment is that their biggest issue wasn't money but their homelife. Parents who didn't value education, or even a basic respect for rules/authority. The kids were wild because their parents were kind of wild themselves. Money wouldn't fix scores for these kids.

If you wish to make a political correct stance, I wouldn't go the money route. I'd say that these kids are victims of intergenerational poverty cycles.
> Just because the growth rate isn't constant, does not make it not exponential.

That's literally what makes it not exponential (I.e. when it falls low enough that it is no longer proportional to the derivative). Sigmoid functions, catenary functions (hyperbolic trig), even the complex exponential (regular trig), and the like all have exponential terms. We don't use the term "exponential growth" in any of these cases unless there is growth without bounds - aka the real coefficients are positive.

With the exponential lowering of the costs of wind power, solar and storage that band should increase every year right?

South Australia is 25 to 37 degrees south. The longest HVDC line (in China) is 3300 km, that is 30 degrees.

So now based on existing HVDC lines and South Australian circumstances we can say that we should reliably be able to supply somewhere up to 55 to 67 degrees from the equator, in general. Do you know what is at 66 degrees north? The arctic circle. That is how far north we end up.

This is not even considering that closer to the poles have much better wind resources, especially in winter time.

So, the 4 million people living north of the Arctic circle might have a harder time. But it would seem that it is a trivially easy to solve edge case when the rest of the world has a solution.

This of course discounts any geopolitical concerns, which makes it harder. But on a US or EU continental we easily have the technology today.
Running your VMs on another machine is not just good for virtualizing Intel while using an Apple Silicon machine -- it's also awesome just to offload resource utilization to another machine. Throw Wireguard on your home network and you can work at the coffee shop all day without plugging in to charge... and you can close your laptop and your long-running tasks keep going.
I just went back and reread it to see if I missed something, but aside from the profit-centered angle (which I've already conceded was a misreading on my part), nope, it still appears to be entirely market focused. I couldn't say if that was intended or if the author just over-extended the analogy (obviously I inferred the former), but the whole comment was framed around operating effectively within the market economy. That's explicitly what it says.
It's been decades, but back when I was in high school rich kids paid people to fake their identity to take the tests (with fake IDs). I heard rumors that it was a dozen kids in my graduating class, and witnessed 2 myself. 1 was caught.

> All the nay-sayers belly-ache about this but for most children, even the “rich” ones, this simply isn’t true. It’s most definitely not necessary.

I'd rather trust studies than your anecdote. Just saying.
Not only is this analogy wrong (there are plenty of animals that run the moment they are born) but it is also deeply insensitive.

The reason people do worse from underprivileged is not only the lack of quality education, but a fundamental difference in the quality of life. Everything from the diet, to available time, and noise pollution, all makes a difference on education level. Our education system relies heavily on outside help, and poorer neighborhoods often don’t have the time and energy to give their kids even the most basic help with their homework.
You get that waking outside isn't safe at all right? Mugging is as old as civilization and don't get me started on cars.

Life is about trade offs, if someone really wants to spend the time to get access to my home dev box then I may have to spend a couple days on the phone with the bank and restoring from my offline backups. Big whoop.

Your home is likely insecure from my standards. Do you have a firearm at the ready? Do you know how to use it? Does your family have codewords to communicate without letting others on to your plan? How hard is it to kick in your doors? Not just the front door, but the bedrooms. Do you have a dog to wake you in the night? How stocked are you, can you last a month with no resupply? Do you even have a panic room?

I protect what matters beacuse you can't protect everything.
The problem with that last bit is it’s just a prescriptivist rant. You can complain as loud as you like that people are using language wrong, if enough people use it like that the dictionary gets updated.

The solution on the receive side is LRO.

I was doing 10GbE line rate with 1500b frames in 2006 or so on consumer-grade CPUs using software LRO (implemented in the driver).

I worked for a NIC vendor (Myricom) that shipped our NIC drivers with a default 9000b MTU. That was fine when we just did HPC & everything reachable via layer 2 was another one of our NICs with a 9k MTU. But it was a mess when we started selling 10GbE NICs. I got pretty good at diagnosing MTU mis-matches..
If you only need to run Aperture I've had good success using Retroactive[1] on my M1 Max machine running Monterrey to patch it to run under Rosetta. Almost everything works fine except anything tied to iCloud and some of the video and slideshow features.

Your post as I read it is very hard to parse, but I don't think the article claimed that Typescript couldn't do it. Many modern languages can do Either or Maybe types precisely because they copied it from Haskell in the first place. (Which is good. Copying is good.)

The dynamic scripting languages can do a "maybe" type because they can do just about anything when it comes to types; what they can't do is enforce correct usage by restrictions, so you write a Maybe type but you can't ever quite be sure it's doing what you think it's doing. This is just something you end up living with in dynamically typed langauges.

I disagree completely. You could literally give zero effort, focused or not, and sit on the bench of a winning team. On top of that, your parents could have 100% made you do those things.
This shouldn't be made into a public spectacle. You should be getting a lawyer to help explain why those governmental bodies felt so secure in not answering you the way you had hoped, and if there is any other recourse you can take.

Regardless of your actual "rightness" on this issue, potential future employers will only see this as a liability. The willingness to air dirty laundry against a previous employer is not seen as a positive attribute in most hiring processes I've seen.
