The rationale for "mutable" is similar to the one for interior mutability in Rust. It's actually really hard to define what it means for something to be "constant" in a systems language, and that's why Rust did not consider deeper sorts of immutability or functional purity.
Problem is, Windows is, and seems to become more and more, with each version, something of a moving target - and so may be (are?) device drivers, which begs the question whether one can only use devices from ten years ago or such...
> Sharing a folder or file from Dropbox is no more intuitive than using the S3 console.

I've not really used the S3 console but, at least on macOS, sharing a file from Dropbox is as simple as "right-click on the file in Finder, Share..." then enter an email address or create a share link from the popup. Or I can right-click and "Copy Dropbox Link" if the direct link is good enough.

Is the S3 console simpler than a right-click?
Sutton is talking about a long term trend. Would Google have been able to achieve this w/o a lot of computation? I don't think it refutes the essay in any way. If anything, model compression takes even more computation. We can't scale heuristics, we can scale computation.
The sensors self-driving cars use are far less sensitive to color than human eyes.

You can generalize your concept to the other sensors, but sensor fusion compensates somewhat... The odds of an input being something never seen across all sensor modalities become pretty low.

(And when it did see something weird, it can generally handle it the way humans do... Drive defensively).
>basic evolutionary theory argues pretty strongly against it.

That's not true. Over millenia leftover chunks of DNA can accumulate for no good reason. Duplication mistakes, viral infections etc. The term junk dna originated from the initial assumption that all noncoding dna was useless. Evolutionary theory has nothing to do with this.
Anybody up for an argument that the government should have custody of and raise all children? I know that’s a non-starter, but if you want to level the playing field for all kids, this is how you do it. Outside of that, you are leaving children to whatever shitty situation they didn’t ask to be born into.

I’m not saying I’m for this. I’m not and you would have to kill me to get to my kids. Just seems like the most logical solution to an otherwise impossible problem.
Yep, net-tools doesn't have the "-I" option
what'd those numbers look like in 1980 no reason just curious.
Are you actually serious?

We are obviously not talking about being born into wealth. Middle-class people still need to accumulate capital first, generally by working, something that's not always possible (for an extreme example, take e.g. ~90% unemployment rate for autistic college grads).

Even if we were talking about wealthy families, that doesn't count out being disowned, etc. for being gay or transgender.

One problem vim's default color scheme is, with the default configuration, it assumes a light background. This leads to having to deal with dark blue text on black background.

I either have to change vim's background setting from dark to light or use a different color scheme like zellner.
SMS isn't secure and I don't think anybody ever advertised it as such, the security for MFA use derives from the use of various channels even if the information itself travels in plaintext, the theory being that your average hacker won't have access to all of those channels.

This is a broken assumption at the root of many multi-factor authentication methods. SMS should not be used like this but telling users to stop it isn't productive, it is the various institutions that demand it be used that are the problem.
I'm usually very patient with the leftovers of the "ionizing only" crowd and what you call "gish galloping" (huh?!) was my attempt at nudging you to discover the science that shows that worldview to be outdated.

So when you write:
"...and theoretical mechanisms for harm of RF below ionizing levels has never been proven to anything close to a statistical significance or in ways that are reproducible" ...I lose that patience with people not even interested in looking.

Look up Yakymenko et al. 2015 "Oxidative mechanisms of biological activity of low-intensity radiofrequency radiation". Full-text link:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/279863242_Oxidative...

Excerpt: "...among 100 currently available peer-reviewed studies dealing with oxidative effects of low-intensity RFR, in general, 93 confirmed that RFR induces oxidative effects in biological systems. A wide pathogenic potential of the induced ROS and their involvement in cell signaling pathways explains a range of biological/health effects of low-intensity RFR, which include both cancer and non-cancer pathologies."

Yes, the word "cancer" is in there along with "low-intensity RFR". The pathway is free-radical promotion in cells by RF and subsequent damage to proteins, DNA etc.

Keep believing the "ionizing only" line if you want. You're allowed to have an opinion. But then its just you against the peer-reviewed & published data.

That's probably true, but I think at least part of it is just smaller companies doing what bigger companies do, in a kind of cargo cult ritual.

The last company I worked at had 8 interviews, which I thought was a lot. My current company (about 100 people) had no less than 11 scheduled interviews!

Of those, only the first 2 were with people in my department — my manager first, then my manager and immediate coworkers. There was another group call with people in a related team I might conceivably be expected to liason with eventually. Fair enough.

The remaining 8 calls were with leadership in every other division in the company, most of which I would never work with. People with jobs where I don't even know what they do, and I'm sure they had no idea what I do. I just politely made conversation with them and answered their (very general) questions.

Now that I've worked there a while, I have never spoken with these people again, or worked in any way with the teams they oversee.

I've also participated in a few interviews at this company now, from the other end of the Zoom call, and I know how it works: literally every branch of the org chart gets a meeting for every interviewee, regardless of what they're applying for. Everyone has a chance to say "no", but in practice nobody outside the relevant teams is going to exercise that veto, because they are well aware that they are unqualified to judge the candidate's skills, and will never have to work with them anyway.

It's just a big waste of time for everyone involved.
It also has some truly incredible features. Low latency optimizations, audio/video synchronization and the composable shader stack are some of the highlights.
How’s that solving leetcode att 30mins pace in 5 of 7 45mins rounds can get a candidate know about company. No wonder Blind is more vivid than interviews.
If it brings you any more motivational drive, (as someone who has no background in signal processing) it absolutely blows my mind that technology like Shazam works, and I've always wanted to figure it out.

One of my backburner tasks that will probably remain forever is to get a grip on DSP, obtain General/Amateur ham radio license, mess around with it, yadda yadda yadda.

I've always meant to get around to digesting this article:

I had two of my closest childhood friends die when I was young. It was a much different situation to yours, but I just wanted to say I know what that's like. I'm not haunted by it either, but it stuck with me in that it made it really hard for me to make friends again afterwards. I hope you are doing better these days.
Yeah, and you can also have multiple loopback interfaces in the 127.0.0.0/8 range if you want, no reason why you can only have one. That said, enough stuff out there assumes localhost = 127.0.0.1 = loopback interface that I wouldn't want to make my life complicated by breaking the convention.

Also, that comment was already a bit muc, and I opted to simplify a bit.
The US has a recent history of racial discrimination that prevented a lot of people from building wealth in their communities or generational wealth. Not that there aren't a shit ton of white people living in trailer parks, but no one was denying them home loans because of the color of their skin.

So, if owning your own home is a big part of your wealth over a life time, and your parents and their parents were discriminated against and prevented from accessing those mechanisms, it makes it much less likely that you will today be born in a wealthy or a poor family.

Look up redlining on wikipedia if you want specifics.

I went to music school as a kid and learned to piano and guitar but never really enjoyed it. Then, in my 20s I became a fan of EDM and decided to try producing for myself. I bought a copy of Logic Pro and have been using it ever since. Now 8 years later I still suck at producing and have achieved nothing, but at least it is a fun hobby :)
The lava lamps are completely impractical. You'd get randomness of equal quality for orders of magnitude less energy by turning the lamps off and putting a lens cap over the webcam they use to record them.

> [We] have decided to indefinitely postpone our next coordinate-changing update (GRCh39) while we evaluate new models and sequence content for the human reference assembly currently in development.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/grc

The complete Y chromosome from HG002 was added with v2 (after the paper was written). Probably a patched form of GRCh38 will be made using T2T sequence, but IMO it makes more sense to use T2T-CHM13 as a reference with its single origin instead of a weird chimera, at least until pan-genome graph methods mature.
15 extra hours * N candidates per opening * M people onboarded per additional marginal employee discovered.

Picking numbers from a hat say 15 * 7 * 20 = 2,100 unproductive hours to avoid a subpar employee that still actually gets something done in the ~3,000 hours before being fired. That could easily be a net loss depending on how much onboarding time is needed and how unproductive they are on average.

Honestly, I think those numbers may be overly generous to long onboarding processes.
> Is it annoying for candidates? Yeah, but we pay you a lot of money, and it does actually work for us. Is it perfect? No, but it does work.

I've never been paid for interviewing. You mean you pay the successful candidates well, which is what? 10% of the people you subject to this obnoxious process?

You mean the nature of worker owned cooperatives means they exclude potential equity investors from providing the capital?

You're literally complaining about what you don't want to happen not happening...
If anyone is looking to dabble in the search space, I'm considering opening up Marginalia a bit. It's written in Java but it's also based on REST services so other languages could be integrated, no big deal as it's not within some particularly hot code loop.

The entire project is basically an excuse to dick around with NLP, low level programming, weird algorithms, large datasets; you know, the sort of programming that's actually fun. I also have a metric shit-ton of real world data and metadata to play with.

I'm half looking to open source it partially or entirely (probably AGPL), but I'm working on ironing out some details about the format. Not really sure what model works since it requires niche hardware to run, manual maintenance to operate, it's a nightmare to test, and so on.
If you want more power, there's a lot of all-in-one lithium ion batteries with inverter nowadays. These also have a built-in solar charge controller. You can pair it with a 20W, 30W or 100W solar panel, and this can all be found on amazon. Theres also USB outputs and 12V outputs typically, if you want to be more energy-efficient.

Example: https://www.rocksolars.com/products/rocksolar-weekender-port...

Should be enough to power a small router and a full Raspberry Pi 4 for a day, or a more minimalistic setup for several days.
I have mixed feelings about owning a business vs. working for a corporation. I retired last month and the bulk of my retirement comes from working for a few companies that paid me very well, in some cases their stock was a good deal, and in some cases I had time set aside for my own research.

That said, there can be a lot of BS involved working for other people, and some of the happiest people I know have their own business.

Here in the USA, despite really low unemployment numbers, the divide between people who are well off and people who just get by is widening and more people are falling into something that looks more like poverty than a solid middle class lifestyle. In the future, it seems to me that to be well off you either need to have specific skills that corporations value or you need to own a viable business.

This is difficult for me to say because I have always valued free time (in the last 45 years I have probably averaged working about 26 to 30 hours a week), in modern times I would recommend having a side gig and a job. Go for maximum flexibility.
> Anybody up for an argument that the government should have custody of and raise all children?

Because that worked really well in Communist Romania. "Let's make sure things are equally terrible for everyone, then we can call that a level playing field" is not sensible policy.
Or just give everyone you fire $10-50K in non-disparagement/severance/hush money to go away. That's what I've seen that worked fairly well.
Cancerous cells can have a rapidly changing genome, with the heterochromatin “glue” between genes playing an important role in this, including altering how much those genes get expressed.

This work has sequenced the “glue” so we know what’s supposed to be there and can better understand what’s different about cancerous cells beyond the usual gene mutations.
Good, sort of a ridiculous law. I'm ignorant so excuse me if this sounds ridiculous, but shouldn't the politicians and law makers be working with communities to create improved outcomes directly instead of signing in laws at random?
yeah it's almost like the single axis of race isn't quite enough to make full sense of these problems. maybe we could mix in some other forms of identity and access people might have. could call it "union theory" or something idk.
Author is British, probably still think they are the main protagonist of the World.
Honestly such publication is not something to show on Nature website.

Narrative exists since ever, some people have observed some others and discover common patterns to bend those others wills, that's nothing new, the term and the meaning "conspiracy theory" is just a way to label adverse narratives, the official is named "pravda" or "the real truth" or "facts checked contents" etc.

What it matter is:

- identify patterns that push so many following narrative, not just to abuse/steer them but also to moderate all narratives in public to avoid dangerous paths;

- learn to reason, teach to reason. For instance we read about something depicted as really good and something else depicted as really bad. Do we just follow written emotions or we analyze the writing trying to imagine those written thing in reality?

Unfortunately essentially no "élites" or "common people" want that, the first just because they need to label adverse narrative, but they do want "common people" trust their own; the seconds just because facing truth and trying to determine is something can be true or false demand effort and might be unpleasant to a point so many prefer follow one who promise the Paradise on Earth in a snap of his/she's fingers than someone who say "we need to face harsh situations and work toward a better future for years".

However, people of culture, who happen to gravitate around Science should and MUST be not of the same kind of the above mentioned cohorts...
In a similar vein, drivers don't realize just how much their car usage is subsidized. They feel they pay more than enough for their use, given petrol taxes and other fees, but it's not even remotely close to cover the cost impacted on society.

Buried amidst the sensationalism of people "popping pills" at the behest of their psychiatrists is the real lede:

> [...] the Drug Enforcement Administration decides how much can be sold for the entire country. And the DEA has dropped its allowed quotas. In 2016, it allowed 50,000 kilograms to be sold; but for 2022, it has lowered the amount to 41,200 kilograms. [...] All of which is leading some people to buy illegal Adderall, which goes by the street name of “Adderall.” [...] Some wind up with fentanyl-laced Adderall.

This is unconscionable. These shortages inflict tremendous anxiety upon those who rely on amphetamines to treat their ADHD. As anyone who is prescribed amphetamines can confirm: effective treatment is very sensitive to dosage, and unplanned pauses in treatment Really Suck.

A few months ago, my local CVS told me to either transfer my prescription, or come back the following month — they had reached their procurement quota. Last month, it took me two weeks to get to the front of their wait-list and get my prescription filled.

What choices does this leave patients who are unable to easily get to other pharmacies? At best, they're compelled to override the judgement of their care providers and either ration or entirely skip doses. At worst (or so this article claims) it pushes patients onto the black market.

A quick google search suggests that amphetamine shortages stretch back years. I feel immensely lucky to have lived in unaffected locales up until recently, and I feel immense anxiety to discover that my present locale is plagued by shortages with no end in sight.
> including for things like button mapping (each emulator maps to a set of "fake" Retroarch inputs, which Retroarch then maps to your actual controller)

Is this really necessary? Why not map input devices directly to core inputs? Makes configuration needlessly complex in my experience.
Hopefully it would correlate with programming ability and not general IQ.

Literally any genetic disease (or shortcomings like aging) could have missing facets hidden in these newly-complete regions of the genome. It's kind of the same reason you would want a complete anything, it's not ideal to go hunting for knowledge while blinded to a nonrandom 8% of the territory.
some grim capitalist realist shit when it's easier to imagine taking everyone's kids away than it is to imagine not structuring society around the exploitation of artificial inequality.
I think the "we" in this case is researchers and scientists trying to advance human knowledge, not startup folks. Startups of course expend lots of effort on doing things that don't end up helping humanity in the long run.

I've encountered a similar failure, when some old process still claimed [::]:80 when I restarted the web server, probably a lingering socket or something like that, which made the new process only bind to 0.0.0.0:80. It took me a while to find out why my changes weren't being reflected when I could see the binding _right there_ in `ss -tlpn`!

Honestly, I don't think it's too unreasonable to argue that if a client has IPv6 connectivity and a hostname has a valid AAAA record, the connection should be established over IPv6. Browsers tend to have fallbacks to IPv4, but outside browsers you'll be surprised how little actual system software cares about DNS fallback.

Reading the BusyBox source code (https://elixir.bootlin.com/busybox/latest/source/libbb/xconn...) it seems like it will pass AF_UNSPEC to str2sockaddr, which is packed into `addrinfo hint` and then passed on to getaddrinfo(). Only when IPv6 support is disabled or ENABLE_FEATURE_PREFER_IPV4_ADDRESS is enabled will busybox shuffle around the DNS results to return an IPv4 address.

If your service isn't available on IPv6 yet your hostname has a valid IPv6 record, it's your task to indicate this to the software (using the -4 flag, for example) or to configure it to retry.
It’s hard to truly capture how revolutionary Doom was when it dropped in ‘93. One could argue categorizing PC gaming history as “before/after Doom” the same way people say pre/post [major historic event usually a war].
