24 February
Russia attacked Ukraine

The people of Ukraine are universally mobilized and ready to defend their country from enemy invasion

91% of Ukrainians fully support their President Volodymyr Zelensky and his response to the Russian attack.

The whole world condemned the unjustified invasion and decided to impose unprecedented sanctions against Russia. With each new day, they will be felt more and more strongly among civilians.

At the same time, the Russian government restricts citizens' access to external information, planting one-sided formulations and versions of what is happening.

I hadn't heard of Dr Brenner, but agree there is too much hype in the space (I'll pause before calling it full BS). I think this issue is more overstating the impact of much of the research, or how far it has to go, rather than just completely making stuff up.
I did. Where I live you can rent cheaper than a mortgage payment (plus tax and insurance) by about $1000 per month, so owning has an additional $12,000 per year cost based on that alone.
> Yeah the court ruled that it violated constitutional guidelines. Not that math teachers shouldn't be proficient at math.

Right. Only that their proficiency mustn't be tested. Not with this test, anyway. They must use a hypothetical test where all groups perform equally well.
Amazon is not going to change from the inside for anyone making $1M. If you go in thinking it is, you're deluding yourself and will be much less effective than if you just accept that Amazon is what Amazon is and you're whoring yourself out to them for $1M/year.

Your paygrade needs to be at least $100M/year to have a reasonable shot of changing the culture of a large company. Most likely, by the time you get up there you realize that companies are what they are for reasons, and if you try to change that you will end up changing yourself out of that $100M job rather than changing the world.
It reminded me a lot of the art in Mysterium as well, where the premise is that the art cards are visions being presented to mediums from a ghost to try to hint towards how they died.

The Japanese surrendered before the nukes. The US claimed the message was lost in transit.

A decade or so ago, the relevant stuff was declassified. We got the message. The president decided to go forward with the nukes anyway. We had approximately 1.5 bombs, without more on the way, so it was a massive bluff. Knowing Japan would fold immediately after the bombings was a huge advantage.

Edit: the communications I'm referring to were via closed diplomatic channels. The public surrender announcement and face saving came later.
> What are you planning to do with all that financial independence?

Read more, improve my cooking skills, learn how to play chess, try out a month-long vacation, play video games, learn some art skills, exercise... I'm sure I'm missing some things. I can do a little bit of these a small amount of the time but it's not enough to enjoy, as long as I'm working.

Maybe there are jobs I'd enjoy but I kind of doubt it. I haven't found a job that I'd say I want to do until I'm in my 60s, that's for sure.
Presumably there is an editorial check/audit by Bloomberg. Potentially the delays are not due to his publishing time, but due to internal Bloomberg processes? Although the decline in Friday emails is likely entirely due to Matt.

I’m looking forward to Matt’s response.
I have never seen the CEO of any organization I've ever worked for fix anything of note even company or life threatening situations unless it was actually to the point of threatening the immediate existence of cash flows right away as in this quarter. Honestly anyone who expects Affirm to fix an issue where a fraction of 1% of users are fucked and 99% are OK is dreaming. All it would have to do to negative the benefit of such is for it to increase costs by 1%

The smart folks reading this thread have just learned that its wise not to do business with affirm because its not worth the hassle.
Yes, just like with communism, to which I alluded in my comment, with urban design we also have a problem of figuring out what people want, where, and how much of it. The “urban design” people often have the similar mindset to communist planners, who knew better what people should want than the people themselves.

I’m a private pilot that’s flown in NYC Class B repeatedly and trained here. I think the reputations are overblown and based mostly on the novelty of the accents and some amusing audio clips that have circulated for years.

Given the amazing volume they handle I’ve always found them nothing but crisp and professional.

If you’re also basing your opinion on those audio clips rather than actually asking for clearances or navigating the exclusions I think you might also have the wrong impression.
It's because of the time constraints required in an interview. At my job, the assumption is that you won't have enough context and experience to be effective in the job until you've been there for 6 months. You can't fit 6 months of prep into an interview.

Good interview questions are ones that boil that 6mo+ of experience down to something that can be explained in 5 minutes and solved in 45. Ideally you'd just work for the company for a few months and then they have their signal, and that's how internships and contractor conversions work. Most people with experience are unwilling to quit a job for a 3-month trial period though.
> ETH is valued based on tokens in circulation

This is not really a meaningful statement. Thiel is talking about Ethereum's market cap, which is not related to the number of tokens in circulation. Owning ETH doesn't (and most likely will never, even after the PoS merge) pay anything like dividends.

The demand for ETH comes from the fact that it's necessary to pay some every time you want to interact with the ethereum blockchain. The demand for Visa stock comes from the fact that Visa will probably pay dividends or do buybacks in the future. You're right that that makes it not obvious how to compare the two.

But you can still try and do the comparison Thiel might be doing. What "should" the price of ETH be? The supply of ETH is mostly fixed, so the question is "what price for ethereum equalizes the amount of ETH people are willing to buy at that price and the supply of ETH". If you assume that the demand is "whatever people are willing to do on VISA, they're willing to do on Ethereum assuming they can for cheaper" (an assumption some here will probably find dubious, but let's go with it), and that Ethereum is capable of that (which it isn't, not yet anyway), the value of the amount of Ethereum needed to do a transaction is the same as the cost of doing a transaction through VISA (since we're assuming they're perfect substitutes). Then we have to consider their costs – VISA's costs are whatever they spend on hiring programmers and servers and little cards, and Ethereum's cost is what they pay to validators to incentivize them to keep the chain secure. If we make a third assumption that these costs are similar, the market cap of Ethereum should be the same as Visa's.

The market caps are actually very similar, so that's some evidence that the market believes that these assumptions are true.
Nice, I hadn't seen that one before. And as you say, not just any Lancer, but the Evo.
23M VC to build a terminal app? I wouldn't touch that terminal app with a barge pole. It would be forced to be monetized/telemetrized to death...
Yes, and I'm aware of that. So, I'm skeptical of recommends ALSO, but I don't reduce the standing of a product in my mind because it's recommended, I'm just wary still.

If I know that product X exists, and someone tells me they like it, it's a wary slight-increase in trust. Unless the person is someone I can identify as being into corporate advertised crap.

If I know that product X exists, and I then see an ad for it, it reduces my inclination to consider buying it.

If I can find out that the "organic" recommendation was a paid influencer situation, that's the worst.

To be clear, the ad concern doesn't apply to companies advertising their own products. I don't feel awful about going to a restaurant and at the restaurant they are advertising a new dish.
> it's mandatory for all pilots at least in EASA and FAA rules to be English proficient

I would really like to know where you got this from. Been flying in France privately for 7 years, and not a single time have I been requested to speak English nor my aeronautical English skills had to be assessed for me to enjoy flying privileges.

Been also flying abroad, in northern Europe, where the local native language very much is the norm, unless a non-native is exchanging with ATC of course.
Accuracy? "Now" is an inaccurate (nonsensical, actually) concept except in extremely local conditions.
It sure was a nice video, and I found it insightful to see what goes on in a car factory. But I have honestly quickly gotten spoiled by seeing some really good FPV videos, recently, it seems that every self-respecting company wants/gets one, these days. And with that in my memory, I found the cuts surprisingly off-putting, as silly as that is, I realize that. On the flip side, how close they were allowed to go into the molding and other machines, I found very impressive, imagining that a steering mistake could cause disruption and cleanup, although it might also speak to how much buy-in you can get from the people on the floor for making a cool video.
Too late for me to edit it I’m afraid
> Composite those things together manually and add a style transfer you'll get similar results to DALL-E as that is what it is doing more or less.

If you try actually doing this it will be trivial to see that this assertion is incorrect.

1. The way in which the elements of the images are integrated together is deeper than the level of style. For instance, see the image in the top row, second column: it has integrated the blue bird wings onto the man, not only simply grafting them on, but giving the appearance of their being draped on like a cloak, partly behind and partly in front of him (+ it's consistent with the man's posture and the rays of light to evoke a certain coherent cultural idea/image). You might be able to integrate multiple images (of man, bird, rays etc.) together and style transfer to arrive at a poor approximation of this—but even then, the decision to place the elements together in such a way would require creativity on your part.

2. The one example set of of trial images (generated from the phrase "expressive painting of a man shining rays of justice and transparency on a blue bird twitter logo") is one of the easiest among the full group to pick its various elements apart; if you try this thought experiment with the others in the thread, you'll see this idea is by far insufficient.
Holy mother of God. Hats off to you for "coming out" "normal". I know it is so so stupid of me to use the "normal" word but I wanted to celebrate your rescue, your enduring and the whole journey. Wouldn't wish it on anybody (even my worst enemy). Just reading this makes me so angry but I hope you are able to guide/provide safety to others based on your experience. Anything others can do in our daily lives to counter/attack this problem?

Pretty cool and terrifying if they made it an app I guess
There are plenty of passionate software engineers who think those problems are actually fun. Independently of that (I don't think it's an immediate red flag if those problems are not fun for you, or not fun for you in that specific setting etc.), a lot of it is actually a glimpse into how working with that person might be. I.e. what ideas do they form, how do they communicate them, how do they respond to feedback, how do discussions about alternatives, problems etc. go, do they seek help when they need it and how... I don't think it's deniable that those are valuable qualities to test.

Sonos is also not really a bluetooth speaker. If you want that, you should spend much less on a UE Boom.

Sonos has also starting putting Bluetooth LE into all their new hardware, so that they don't have to do a Wifi scan to find new devices. WiFi scan requires location permission on mobile (because you can ID your location if you know the BSSID of nearby APs), and it was confusing. If should be better soonish.

Wow! Fits my suspicions perfectly. Like, starts as creative good product (though I have misgivings about maybe they purposely make kits that discourage second-hand redistribution and thus add excessive waste to the world? Dunno, just a worry)… grows and thrives, gets enough budget to hire some new marketing and growth folks, works to maximize profit by reducing quality and underfunding the product to make lowest possible costs, focuses more on advertising to reach wider market, eventually becomes mediocre shell of the original high-quality business.

Something like that maybe… just guessing

> I'm in disbelief.. Scared also - why not ?

I'm the former, but not the latter. It is eerie seeing code (especially running in the vast black box that is deep learning) do things so humanlike, but I always come back to the analogy of manned flight.

We are on the precipice of a Kitty Hawk moment in AI. But just as the Wright Brothers' plane was not a bird, it's worth remembering that these systems are not minds. They are almost certainly utilizing some of the same principles that minds use, just as fixed-wing aircraft utilized the same principles at work in avian bodies, but they are coming to them via a different route from nature.

It's thrilling seeing these breakthroughs, and just as manned flight transformed the world, whatever the likes of GPT, PaLM, and DALL-E become will make the future weird in ways we can't predict.

This is absolutely incorrect! English proficiency is not a requirement if you are proficient in the official language of the country you are flying in. ATS provide services both in said-language and in English.

Munro Live, who's video was linked to earlier in the thread, commented that Tesla line is shorter and more efficient as it takes only 12 hours to make one Model Y vs over 30 for VW EV.

High assembly efficacy is mainly due to large front and read aluminum castings, new battery format 4680, and unique structural battery pack onto which, floor, seats and console are mounted and later integrated, in one go, into the chassis through the bottom of the vehicle.[0]

That's the OPPOSITE of what I'm saying. I'm affected by ads. I think EVERYONE is somewhat affected by SOME ads. I've built up such a defensive posture to ads (thanks maybe to MAD magazine in my youth and use of Adblocking etc), I remain *sensitive* to them in a style where they trigger my defenses.

That's not a claim of immunity.
Curious as to what the JS bridge overhead is like for both latency and throughput. What would the performance look like if you tried to serialize DOM updates over the bridge and replay them on the JavaScript side so that you could build DOM UIs? Have you measured # of updates per ~16ms?

(I know there is some proposal that might allow WASM to interact with the DOM directly too, but I don't know how likely it will be merged.)

> I wonder why new planes are so complex.

They're not. Older planes required more personnel (flight engineers, navigators, etc.). Newer planes are vastly easier to operate with just a captain and first officer.
On paper, yes, it would seem a MiG-25 would work against an SR-71, but those are max characteristics and not sustained performance. Mach 3.2 was best case while testing. Real world speed is more like Mach 2.5, especially when carrying missiles. The AA-6 was huge and massive drag on performance. Further, the AA-6 had very limited targeting and engagement electronics, which meant that the MiG-25 was not very effective against the SR-71.
