I'm leaving stuff out. Don't know if they take a loss on their cars, but if so that's very common for hardware manufacturers.

I'm not an Elon apologist by any stretch, but you have objectively bad takes here. I can only imagine you just don't like his personality.

Are his companies not leading in Space access? Clean energy? Transportation? Maximizing life? Fun.

The guy is a workhorse He innovates at every turn. He hires the best, and expects the best. He has done a marvelous job incentivizing great engineering, science, and research. Their goals are lofty. He thinks long-term. His teams are largely motivated for the right reasons, and he helps make many of his employees very wealthy.

His intentions are good. He's an environmentalist. He loves Earth. He loves people. He's positive and optimistic for the future. He can be abstract, artistic, and goofy.

From our perspective, he's rarely wrong, and when he is, he owns it. Is he perfect? Hell no. But he accepts responsibility. He engages with the public, and his fans.... and his haters.

One thing is for sure so far, people who bet on him win.

We'd be so lucky to have Elon lead a communication/social platform.
Calls my attention that the most valuable content on the web is designed with simplicity, in HTML, without moving bells and whistles.
Nature creates superfluous number of males (since one male ususally has most of females, like in a pride of lions, or a sultan's harem). Therefore those unattached males, who are still too young and inexperienced to fight the old ones, wander around 'seeking their fortune', usually leading to their quick demise in all sorts of places.
I saw the MNX announcement the other day and am still confused by it. What did Samsung acquire Joyent for if not the software, or did things simply not pan out and Samsung is now offloading bit?

/me not a statistician either.

If people are all pretty-much crap at estimating their own skill, then you'd expect all estimates to be roughly their actual skill, plus-or-minus some random error-margin with some kind of probabilistic distribution (Gaussian?).

If that were the case, then high-skilled people would be more likely to underestimate their skill (because their actual skill is greater than the mean). That (I think) is an example of "reversion to the mean".

If that reasoning is right, then the DK claim may be true, but it says nothing about the comparative estimating propensities of high-skilled and low-skilled people. It just says that low-skilled people tend to overestimate their skill, and vice-versa. But that's exactly what you'd expect, amirite?
Not the D-K graph, the Nuhfer et al. graph.
Zip2: Musk wrote the software for drawing vector maps & calculating point to point directions anywhere in US. Sold it for $300M.

PayPal: Musk founded X.com. X merged with PayPal. Through that merger, Musk became PayPal's largest shareholder. He was ousted as the company's CEO. He did attempt to move the company's tech onto Windows. None of this invalidates his accomplishment's at PayPal. To wit, he walked away with $100M.

Tesla: Musk did not buy Tesla. 8 months after Tesla was founded, he funded the majority of Tesla's series A at which time he became the chairman of its board. He then stepped into the CEO role and has maintained that role ever since.

SpaceX: Musk trained himself in rocket engineering and pioneered private spaceflight while pushing rocket tech far into the future. Self landing rockets. <- I don't even need a full sentence. Self. Landing. ROCKETS!!!!

Its very important to get the facts right before moving on to interpretation.

Of course, Musk didn't do all of this himself. He has again and again hired top notch engineers and scientists. But even in the most biased publications, his critics begrudgingly acknowledge his technical prowess and commercial acumen.

Again, just look at the list of accomplishments. He is a man, not a god. But in these domains, he is absolutely something special. Many sigma special.

People have complained about the poor quality of Reddit search for as long as it has existed.

Aside from that, certainly, a site with its own indexing and awareness of its own internal structure can provide a better search experience than a third-party.
Not sure the HN title is that great. The actual title is “ The fastest tools for querying large JSON datasets” and the bit about it being written in python is editorialized. The analysis includes products written in go, python, and Java but doesn’t appear to care about the implementation language at all as you must click through to the GitHub to see the language.

I’m also not confident that the list was exhaustive.
I'm sorry, I don't know that much about it. I don't think there are any separate implementation of it. I'd guess that as long you have call/cc you could do it, but Racket has its own specific macro system (syntax-parse, but syntax-rules and syntax-case are supported), and I don't know how much of the racket/base is built on syntax-parse; or, on the other hand, how syntax-parse is itself implemented and if it would be possible to port easily to other Schemes. The good news are that once you have racket/base, most other things in stdlib should work.
I bet you aren’t going to be able to provide a source for this.
Interesting perspective. Mines a bit different..

I agree specialization has allowed the expansion to other fields. Fields like microcontrollers, biological development, energy research, etc.

This is why we see an exponential growth in development of new products and new science. If those same people were required to work in the fields to eat, we wouldn’t see the expansion.

... now ... how does this work In practice? How do we get these efficiency gains in agriculture and other necessary parts of life?

Cheap and transportable energy. Fuel, gas, etc. if we want to reduce the work week we need exponentially cheaper energy OR research into new forms of energy production. The later is currently happening and needs to continue to happen. In the mean time, we also need cheap and transportable energy.

For reference, I own a farm. I code professionally and as a hobby raise cattle and food. I can do that only because I have the fuel to run a tractor and the wireless internet provided from the satellites. To your point, in a 50-60 hour work week I can produce enough food for 20-30 families for the year AND be a highly skilled tech worker AND raise a family. All because of fuel.

Now to my point, in my opinion, specialization has less to do with it. Cheap energy is what allows it. Anyone could raise cattle or grow food with minimal training. But without fuel you can’t produce food for more than a few families per year.
I don't think people realize how shit Russians' lives are. They've got like 5 cities that are modern, anywhere outside those is literally water well and outhouse poor.

Supporting this retarded regime is spitting in everyone's faces, including the Russians.
Reddit search has been notoriously horrible since its introduction. It couldn't even search for subreddits effectively. It could never search comments for content.
If by sovereign you mean 'I can do whatever I want within my own borders', then of course, very few countries can claim to it. On the other hand, a lot of countries are sovereign in the sense that the people generally are in general agreement with what's going on in their country and have a place in a negotiation room to decide their future. The reason the USA works as an empire is because it usually allows at least that much for their subjects.

Russia's problem is that if their neighbours have an ounce of sovereignty they will want to distance themselves from Russia as much as possible due to their terrible behaviour, so they are forced to rule their neighbours by fear & force.
No matter what we do on the supply side it will be eaten up by the unlimited demand from people coming here. Unless we slow down immigration housing will always be too expensive.

This only further hurts people living here by chasing them out of their homes and taking control of their communities away from them.

We can't solve the problems of every country in the world by destroying our own. That only makes things worse for everyone.
Bit of a late reply, but how does Elixir fit into the overall strategy? Is it still like how it is described in previous engineering blogs where it acts as a kind of orchestrator for guilds?
Disagree. Reddit is not a safe place for political movements, minority groups, etc, for this reason
Google does an okay job and certainly is the best option for searching Reddit that I'm aware of, but there are many cases where Google breaks (largely due to Reddit's site). It's common to get results that don't match anything in the content itself, but matches a title in the "more from this subreddit" section at the time Google scraped it. Dates are often wrong so adding date filters often doesn't work as expected.

Even old Reddit has the "more from this subreddit" type links now so I imagine it breaks even if you scope your query to the old domain. I noticed most of this appeared after they launched the new Reddit UI, I don't remember having this problem in the past. Note that these are problems they could likely fix so I agree, but any platform can likely build a more context aware search as well.

Disclaimer: I work at Google but don't work on search, opinions are my own, blah blah

Between November 2016 and August 2017 pretty much the entire Solaris development team was shown the door. I was on the Solaris Zones team in August 2017. A small number were allowed to stay and they are keeping the lights on. I have no idea what happened on the sustaining engineering (support) side.
This seems to be quite a common view: "I'm not upset by the invasion of Ukraine because the US has done a bunch of bad things."

Bringing the US into the issue seems to be quite the non-sequitur - is self-determinancy a concept that can only be viewed through the lens of US imperialism? Are the rights of Ukrainians (and other states bordering Russia) merely a construct of US policy?

Suppose the US currently had in place an administration which took an isolationist, ambivalent or even "Putin has valid concerns" attitude - this is hardly a speculative leap - would your attitude change? If there is nothing to see in what is happening in Ukraine, why would US imperialism bother you?
Were any of those invasions unprovoked?

Was Russia's invasion of Ukraine provoked? Like, has there been evidence of the claimed nazis (which AFAIK isn't grounds for invasion) or whatever? Did Ukraine strike first?
Can you please ELI5 why it would only take a year? Asking for a friend..
Poland and Ukraine had the same size economy in 1991 after collapse of the Soviet Union. Last year Polish economy was 3 times bigger than Ukraine. Ukrainians want the same economic success as Poland and they think that membership in EU was instrumental. If Ukraine succeeds then people of Belarus and Russia will want it too. But Putin does not want to give up power, so he attacks Ukraine. There - that's the reason. Fear of successful Ukraine.

Putin quoted a song during press conference with Emmanuel Macron in early February about Ukraine:

"Whether you like it or don't like it, bear with it, my beauty."

The full quote from "Sleeping beauty in a coffin" song by Red Mold would be:

Sleeping beauty in a coffin, I crept up and fucked her. Like it, or dislike it, sleep my beauty.

That gives you the mindset of Putin with regard to Ukraine.

Also, some personal note - my grandmother as a little girl had to hide from Russian speaking soldiers who were raping women and girls in my home town during "liberation" of Poland from Germany at the end of WWII. The stories from Ukraine are exactly the same as what my grandmother lived trough.
Depends if the offer is made in good faith. If not, this would really look like market manipulation.

In Article 17, the GDPR outlines the specific circumstances under which the right to be forgotten applies. An individual has the right to have their personal data erased if:

The personal data is no longer necessary for the purpose an organization originally collected or processed it.
An organization is relying on an individual’s consent as the lawful basis for processing the data and that individual withdraws their consent.
An organization is relying on legitimate interests as its justification for processing an individual’s data, the individual objects to this processing, and there is no overriding legitimate interest for the organization to continue with the processing.
An organization is processing personal data for direct marketing purposes and the individual objects to this processing.
An organization processed an individual’s personal data unlawfully.
An organization must erase personal data in order to comply with a legal ruling or obligation.
An organization has processed a child’s personal data to offer their information society services.

However, an organization’s right to process someone’s data might override their right to be forgotten. Here are the reasons cited in the GDPR that trump the right to erasure:

The data is being used to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information.
The data is being used to comply with a legal ruling or obligation.
The data is being used to perform a task that is being carried out in the public interest or when exercising an organization’s official authority.
The data being processed is necessary for public health purposes and serves in the public interest.
The data being processed is necessary to perform preventative or occupational medicine. This only applies when the data is being processed by a health professional who is subject to a legal obligation of professional secrecy.
The data represents important information that serves the public interest, scientific research, historical research, or statistical purposes and where erasure of the data would likely to impair or halt progress towards the achievement that was the goal of the processing.
The data is being used for the establishment of a legal defense or in the exercise of other legal claims.

I wonder how all of this works out when you're taking public comments from someone else's forum and re-hosting them. Someone who specializes in law or even is more familiar with GDPR and related laws might be able to comment in more detail. I'm just linking the source which attempts to clarify these things, hopefully those are useful.
The one reproduced in the article doesn't show the density of points, so it's hard to conclude anything from it. Figure 4 from the Nuhfer et al. paper does seem, to me at least, to support DK's conclusions.
Nobody is taking that chance. At the moment. But if Russia shows that they are willing to use their nuclear weapons to the point that it becomes believable that they will do so anyway then we are in completely uncharted territory. Note that this war isn't over yet and that Putin has threatened multiple times now more or less obliquely that he would not hesitate to use nuclear arms in a first strike situation for whatever pretext he seems to think is enough. This was then later walked back again by other Russian functionaries but the damage is already mostly done: Russia is no longer believable, and apparently nuclear first strikes for pretexts are on the table.
> Russia's problem is that if their neighbours have an ounce of sovereignty they will want to distance themselves from Russia as much as possible due to their terrible behaviour, so they are forced to rule their neighbours by fear & force.

I fear the US is doing the same, but perhaps with more decorum. (edit: thinking twice, not much more decorum if we think about south america)
I mean, they absolutely did post propaganda. The administration was 100% vindicated in this statement. They explicitly did not accuse ZH of knowingly or deliberately working for Russia, only that they ran a story without vetting that came from a source connected to Russian intel that contained disinformation related to Russia's intention to invade Ukraine.

Really US Intel and the AP are very rarely wrong and I don't think they've ever posted propaganda. Us Intel usually comes with a confidence level and it's up to policy makers to react (or overreact or underreact).
I think LLVM IR (and other IRs) works a bit like this. There you have an infinite set of registers while memory is separate and you need to explicitly load and store between them. Unfortunately it is not very suitable for humans to write.
I don't think either of those caveats is true about prisons.
The audio problems with the C7 were unfortunate but more on the Intel side to have force pushed that with this generation of CPU while nothing was ready. I got it 6 months later at the moment where things were starting working. Never got much trouble for resting from sleep.

I am currently still using my old X1C2 from 2014. That's quite reliable by my standards. I would prefer to continue with Lenovo due to reliability and good Linux support (there is a dedicated engineer for that matter who is available on their forums and who help various distributions including Debian and Fedora to make things work). I was waiting for the Gen 10 but battery life seems disappointing on Windows, so I am waiting for people to test on Linux. Gen9 only has FHD+ or 4K+ (too low and too high).
> While I do not support Russian invasion, from a purely strategic POV, Ukraine under western control is a national security issue for Russia.

Does the west threaten Russia's security? Do they have plans to invade Russia? Because that would be news to me.

It seems awfully defensive to me, especially coming from a country (Russia) that has been an aggressor for a long time, testing European defenses and readiness for a long time now. How often has the Russian air force intercepted European war planes?

Unless I missed something, this article doesn't explain WHY random data can result in a Dunning-Kruger effect. The relationship between the "actual" and "perceived" score is a product of bounding the scores to 0-100.

When you generate a random "actual" score near the top, the random "perceived" score has a higher chance of being below the "actual" the numerical below is larger than the one above, and vice-versa. E.g. a "test subject" with an actual score of 80% has a (uniform random) 20% chance of overestimating their ability and an 80% of underestimating it. For an actual score of 20%, they have an 80% chance of overestimating.
Imagine learning years later that Russia has, by this time, already launched several nuclear weapons at kyiv.
> As for socializing, I find that very reductive to think that "the people you work with in an office are great for socialization". Nope, I don't choose those people, so I'd rather invest my time socializing with people I choose, which will probably not be the people I am forced to work with.

I agree. I'm happy to "socialise" to the extent that it facilitates getting work done. But I'm not looking for new pals, I'm just here to do the work and get paid, I have a separate life outside of the workplace. Maybe it's just an age thing but I don't want to do company pizza night, or company skiing or company drinks, for me work is a means to an end.

Don't get me wrong, I really like the company I presently work for, get on well with my colleagues, even push the boat out and do a few extra hours to get a project over the line or to help others, but it is just work and that's it.
No, they don't do slowly. Very few of them will buy and hold, it's money being tied up doing nothing. And you have to be fast, longer you wait greedier people get, we've done this many times, the same story repeats itself every time.

As per what is land worth, for a developer, it's a an x amount per buildable square foot (which they need to approximate based on the guidance of their planners, before they rezone).
I appreciated the "retro encabulator"-esque reference in the industrial sample.
This brings back old memories. Amazing how it hasn't changed in 20 years. I was learning c and c++ and this provided a free full development suite comparable to others which were way outside my budget as a teenager.

Out of the 9-5, we as freelancers or self-employed are all facing same problem: the ups and downs of the workload. And if you, like me and others, are counting on the steady stream of income to cover expenses, those gaps/downtime are horrible.

For the past several years, I've been relying on Upwork for work, and found that it's actually not that bad. Just like in the talent pool there are great freelancers and mediocre ones, there are high end clients with good projects and pay, and they try to stand out from the pack as well.

Think about it, the kind of agents that you are thinking about, who can broker work/projects between a certain type of freelancer(skills, pay, etc) with a matching type of clients, are going to be expensive and perhaps in high demand. That would be another problem you need to solve.

That's the problem platforms like Upwork is trying to solve. For me, they have a good enough solution for me to use their service. They are the agent for me.
