Blocking those who like a tweet seems excessive. Plenty of bad hits — people who use likes as bookmarks, etc. What would be really nice is to be able to group block by profile content, or if they were simultaneously followed by five accounts of your choosing. Some fine-grained blocking like that would be nice; it would also be nice if muted words & phrases would also apply to search results — I've seen too many sneak through, especially when attached to hashtags.
It’s not bad! This is the display I’m using: https://www.waveshare.com/product/displays/e-paper/5.83inch-...

You can use any raspberry pi to drive it (or any microcontroller really) which is pretty cheap too.
Thanks for the thoughtful suggestions. We're mainly pissed and disgusted. Appreciate your comment though. He's an optimistic person by nature so he's already moved on.
That's the problem. This is an obvious product. You've been able to buy digital picture frames at WalMart for a decade. But the price point for E-Ink displays is insane.

There's another persistent display technology, cholesteric displays. These seem to have disappeared. Sparkfun used to sell small ones.[1]

Could be one of the options, but at least for my friend group, we stopped playing because there’s no balance. Three or four players in a server with aim bots, and a solid ten percent who are just really good to the point of being unbeatable with the default loadout, make it entirely unenjoyable for a casual player, so we swapped to something else.
I didn't mean to imply boring; don't know how you got that. It's more of a metaphor.
It is possible, although, the responsibilities listed in the job description make the position sound quite technical. In fact, the hiring manager and two of the engineers in the team were kind enough to give me examples of tasks that they would like me to work on if I were to join, and most if not all of the examples sounded like ICT4-ICT5 engineering work.
My fear with this is always that the platform team stops building a platform that is particularly useful. "The Platform" becomes the important thing to them instead of the product it delivers. It's also a good way for the platform team to get viewed as a cost center.

i don't think its a good or a bad thing, I think its a human thing and thats worth recognizing first.
This has some information in it. It seems like cost is a major factor in the reduction of live music, allowing cheaper recorded music to take its place in some cases.

I do see cultural attitudes playing a role too. My guess is they both play a part.
This does not seem like it will end well.
This admission statement is wrong. See source in original comment. U of MN TC accepted 20% last year and 20% this year. Kinda nuts. It's possible that the 70% number you cite is for MN State system which is like a parallel CC and university system. They are good too though.

THanks for your other comments though. Appreciated.
It's worth generally remembering that the best neural networks on this planet take 20 to 30 years of education to become useful.

The benefit of AIs has always been that once we educate one, we can just copy+paste for the next one.
Nah. The SnR of Twitter is absolutely abysmal. The only way you can possibly use it effectively is to accept that there will be false positives caused by your filtering heuristics.
The API in the article is try_from by another name... but leaving the question of panicking to the caller seems right to me. In the "I'm trying to respond to the error" case maybe unknown should be a panic, but what about when you share code with your log parser?
What support did they give to newly-matriculated students who didn't have better preparatory schools?

Or who weren't already familiar with how to operate in a school like MIT?

Or who might need help assimilating into the culture?

Did you accept the offer? If yes, are you happy with the progression so far?
Thank you. We really are trying to keep a good balance here as you say - strong branding for the original source using their own Open Graph tags for title, description and image (we try to respect the intent of the content producer).

And so far the response from media companies to Andi (early days) has been very positive.
That's a lot of PR-speak that doesn't tell me anything about your platform. More importantly, it doesn't tell me what's different from the hundred other platforms or even the handful that rose to the top. I checked the website and still can't tell what it's supposed to be.
> The notion of a “well rounded student” who does music, art, and extra curricular activities, is a legacy of blue blood WASP culture.

So are the schools that gated admissions this way.
So brain fog is actually a triggering of early-onset Alzheimer's? From what I read it sounds like they can't tell. Can someone translate this to English?
Robots doing most of the manual labor.
Yeah, mass blocking people only creates more isolated filter bubbles for everyone involved. Seems like a great way to create an echo chamber though.

Edit: wait, why the downvotes?
If you need to use this type of tool, perhaps just don't use twitter at all.
Vtables are the digital analogue of signed distance fields. That is the trick. Rust gets this right. It is why most rust developers use text editors instead of UML diagrams. We can do the same with CAD. Instead of using a transformer network put the whole geometric inversion in level 1 cache and dispatch through the vtable. The borrow checker does the rest for you. No need to use the mouse anymore. The geometry inversions are now just a keyboard press away.
What does this even mean? Are you responding to the link?
The lesson repeats itself weekly on HN: Don't build anything that sits in an app store unless you are BFFs with someone at the store. This is tech oligarchy.
THanks, he reminded me tonight that he scored 35 _twice_. LOL. I kinda suggested to him he try for perfect like his best buddy. Best buddy is accepted at Ivy school (but probably will not go due to cost from what he said).

First resort for T2 diabetes. T1 diabetics have to go on insulin immediately, there's no other option.
I’d also like to add an anecdote: while my family wasn’t necessarily poor, I pretty much spent all my extra-curricular time doing things like coding and design, and neither of them were really in a way that was documentable. There was no “coding” club or “graphic design” club and if there was something similar that popped up in high school the physical gathering nature of most clubs was odd when applied to things like internet coding. So the clubs tended to be a waste of time more than anything, and most students participated knowingly just to pad college applications.
Playing organized pickup, or participating/organizing activities for your immigrant community are the same as extra curricular activities. They do prove that a student is not just one dimensional test taker

> I think the unforgiveness is the problem. People should be able to make some mistakes.

Wholeheartedly agreed - the “Internet never forgets” is a related problem, although I've also seen some apparent “forgetting” over years.

Accordingly I liberally use a timed “ignore” function on some forums I participate in. So I can block people for a while, in the hope that their posting misbehaviour is lack of experience and/or just having a bad moment in life.
"Our research can’t explain why these tests are so predictive of academic preparedness for MIT..."

Because you're selecting students who test well? Hilarious how clueless academia is about what they're actually measuring here.
Yes, I agree 100%. Have hired several people from hands on CC here in MN.
I mean, all education does (and should) make use of state and federal funding to provide an education, arguably they don't give enough for quality education in grade school.

And I don't think there's much of a solution to the conundrum of "rich people donate to the rich places and attract more rich people". In all the various other ways billionaires avoid taxes and donate to shady organizations/"charities", it's hard to really knock on them giving money to a place where (in SOME capacity) individuals past their immediate community benefit. It can certainly be better utilized, but I don't have a big fuss with it in the grand scheme of things.

Financial aid is certainly a bubble soon to burst, but that's an issue that expands nationwide, not just in the elite schools.
Your take is very strange, and does not correspond to the Indian immigrant experience from what I have seen. I spent 10 years in the US, and the really weird part is how stridently Indian parents would push their kids to train in Indian culture - particularly classical dance like Bharatanatyam and Carnatic classical. Of course, since Westerners have hardly even heard about these cultural forms, these do not even exist as "extra-curriculars" for standard university admission boards.

I found the emphasis on Indian cultural roots so disturbing that I had to weasel out of conversations by saying "I don't know anything about classical dance, I am mostly interested in science-fiction". It is easier to have your own way as an Indian middle-class student in India than as second generation Indians in the US.
Thanks. I don’t want to make it sound like I am being ungrateful, and I told the same thing to the recruiter, but I am sure that my family back home would appreciate it if I can bring more bread to the table for the same amount of time and energy investment.
Gp probably could have stopped after:

> Prescriptions of diet and exercise are ineffective

Which seems to be true. If any advice your doctor could give yields no measurable difference, is there really a point to giving it?
You may appreciate the book “Intellectuals and Society” by Thomas Sowell.
I don’t think it’s fair to say they were ‘brought down’ due to fraud - that article is from 2008, and the chain only shut down last year.
None of those virtues hold in practice. I've worked both at public library digitization efforts and machine learning companies that did document ingestion and analytics. You always OCR the PDF visuals to get the text, because that's the only thing reliable about PDF.
Everything else is often wrong, broken, or non-existent.

By separating the meaning from the visual representation there is no incentive to keep the invisible data workable.

PDF might as well be replaced with SVG, in terms of rendering consistency and metadata extraction capabilities.
Because for a plain vector image format it's not that impressive.
Thanks for the kind words. Usually it works out in the end or to some sort of state where you can look back without regret. Lessons in grit for sure.

People weren't obese ages ago, and I am sure that's not because of better nutritional education.

It's a multifactorial problem.
No. That's not what I'm saying.

I'm talking about specific, narrow changes.

> If you engage in a proof of private key ownership for your login, a man in the middle can use that exchange to log into another server that has the same public key.

No, this is not true. The proof of private key ownership is bound to that specific SSH session (identified by some shared secret established via DH). This means the attackers options are: MITM the DH: Then your authentication won't work against any server. Don't MITM the DH but forward your authentication to the wrong server: Then you're on the wrong server (you might not notice), but the attacker cannot look into your session or modify anything.
People who claim “standardized test is systematic racism” are not necessarily the same people who think “asian americans being discriminated at ivy leagues even with good standardized test score is not seen as systematic racism.”

You are taking two different points of views which are made by two different groups, reducing their arguments down to practically nothing, and pretending they’re being made by the same group.

You are mutating the arguments and inventing a boogie man. Textbook straw man argument.

> Often sensitive debates that don't follow a certain mainstream narrative are brushed off as strawman

There’s a reason for that. It has nothing to do with following a mainstream narrative or not. It has to do with the false assumptions in the basis of your questions.
The implication being based on those chromosomes, there is one way to behave; you must race with those of like-chromosomes. I think that's entirely up for debate, and for good reason. Further, there may be entirely new ways to organize our culture and society for broader justice for the marginalized. Organizing such things by gender breaks down (if justice is your lens) just like it does with race.
Thank you, we really are under no illusions as to how crazy-impossible taking on Google is. We don't really see them as a competitor. They're more the problem we're trying to solve. Google was once a search company. Now it's ad ad-tech and surveillance company that leverages monopoly distribution to sell consumers to advertisers, using captive browser traffic as their loss leader. The cracks in their fortress are getting wider. They will continue to do just-enough to not cause an outright revolt among consumers. I think there is a growing sense that it's time for something different.
I appreciate your point about KYC. We consciously don't know our customer in the government sense at all, unless they want to chat with us, and then it's generally an anonymous Discord username :)
Looks like two separate questions. I didn’t submit but thought it was fair to see who is interested in both.

This was the whole thing with bundled payments. https://www.cms.gov/newsroom/fact-sheets/bundled-payments-ca.... One lump sum for a condition, and the stakeholders involved want to treat it the fastest/cheapest way possible.

Barring that aside, at least the doctors I'm related to would love nothing better than to give better care. I always hear about how they need to stay up on the latest stuff.
If OpenAI is selling text based on a prompt, what does it matter if it is generated by a computer versus output of a "Chinese room" system?

...if the product they're selling is the company itself, or the model, then maybe there is something to it.
HNs down-voting mechanism has definitely trained me - pavlov dogs style - to only write things that people here will like most of the time.

It’s not really clear it is tracking anything so no reason I can think of it as illegal.
Or instead of blocking you could give each person a strike, repeat for a sample of 100 hated tweets, and then block the people with more than N strikes.

Basically put the power of The Algorithm into the hands of the people.
I mean... Research your competition should be on the list of every founder.
I recall that before the word ‘anime’ became common usage in the US, you’d hear the term ‘Japanimation.’ I’d guess anime is better than that.
I read that sentence as they think SAT scores are correlated with but not causal for MIT student success. You would need to do a randomised controlled trial or a mendelian randomisation analysis (requires a lot of genotyping of students) to establish any kind of causality. Those experiments have not been done, so the relationship is correlated.
Ive thought about this too and ive always wondered if large apartments were required to list available vacant vs non vacant apartments that way you could haggle a little.

It is true it is a bit unfair to claim that the policies Murray were racist without providing context. Some of the research he used to back up his case definitely were but the policies he advocated for were for sure conservative but only racist by association (which is why I put it in parenthesis). Conservative values in the 1990s America were really really connected to race. The whole debate about “inner city crime” and the notion of the “welfare queen” were largely a dog whistle. And conservative policies which advocated for “tough on crime” and welfare elimination were most often doing so against a largely racialized group.

I admit this is far fetched and maybe unfair. However I’m hardly the only one to accuse this book of being racist. The Wikipedia page is full of accusations, ranging from the aforementioned data from racist studies used unapologetically, to its advocates receiving funding from organizations associated with white-supremacy.

EDIT: I also want to address why it is totally fair to advocate Mismeasure of Man as a counterargument to The Bell Curve. There is a level of scientific rigor which The Bell Curve fails and Mismeasure doesn’t. For example the studies used in The Bell Curve were—to put it bluntly—bad. The Bell Curve failed to go through peer-review, it misused concepts, relied on unbacked assumptions, reached a conclusion unrelated to the premise, etc. You might find that some of these criticism applies to Mismesure, but hardly all, and not nearly on the same level. As an objective—albeit arbitrary—measure, just look at the ratio of the Wikipedia articles for each book which is devoted to criticism and controversies. Almost the entire article about The Bell Curve goes into some controversies. If both books were criticized and surrounded in controversies, one was definitely worse then the other.

There is still the value of creating the model asset, though I agree that it’s a cost that doesn’t scale with how many people buy it (except for maybe some of the song packs, not sure how RL’s royalty package is structured).

Why does attaching real world costs to purchases in-game strike you as “malicious” but not the real world cost of buying the game?
i never felt like it was small, but i can ask the team responsible for generating labels about the size
If money disappeared overnight, a lot of people would die (almost all of them). So, money allows the survival of people. If you are not a misanthropist, then, the world is better with money, since it allows people to live.

Therefore, making money is simply something that must be done to allow the existence of human life. This is not in conflict of making the world better, it's in service of it.
Oh, so FAANG...

A correction: Test 1 was using autoincrement but was also specifying the primary key. If modified to not specify the primary key, like test 3, it is indeed the slowest at 3.21s.

Ive used dozens of times on video recommendations for Louis rossman, and Fox News, the “not interested in this channel” button, and I still get recommendations. I’m not convinced that button does anything.
Twitter is a place where my blocklist length far exceeds my follow or following list. I use it only for the academic chatter. It is unfortunate that ML/Systems research has major presence on Twitter & thats happening to be high SNR.
Agree, mostly. Primary care doctors in the US are often limited to 15-30 minutes per patient for routine matters. Referrals to nutritionists / dieticians and other expensive options often lack follow through, or aren’t offered in the first place because prescribing is so much easier. Medical professionals have a duty to arm patients with the information needed to make good choices about their health, but often shirk that duty due to inconvenience or these kinds of time limits. In a perfect world, access to medical professionals would be less scarce and at least the tools (nutrition info) would not be an issue. The medical system really isn’t designed for obese people on multiple levels in the US, and it isn’t designed for good long-term outcomes…yet.
