There is a statistical association between having among the longest sleep times and having health issues of that sort, but I don't know that the causality has been sorted out.
If there is a direct cause and effect relationship my favored hypothesis would be in the direction that severe health issues promotes an increased need for rest and recovery.

Granted, it's been a long time since I was in school (in the US - as that's what we're talking about - just to be clear) but sports always helped me learn to take failure/loss better than anything else I was taught in school.

I wonder also if there is an obligation to finish construction in a certain time frame. If not you could draw up grandiose plans with an architect and after you get the permit you just build part of it immediately and start living in that part and then take the next 20-30 years to build the rest, if ever.

Ever since H. Clinton called Gabbard a "Russian asset," Gabbard sued, and the suit was dismissed because it was determined that a "Russian asset" didn't have to have any connection to Russians, they could just be a person who said things that Russians liked to have said; since then we're back in the age of "pinkos."

Having an opinion that patriotic Americans think that Russians would like you to have is the same as being a traitor. It's like an accidental terrorist. That's what a pinko was; a person who believed in civil rights, worker's rights, etc.. They weren't red, they were pink.

edit: this was greatly foreshadowed after 9/11 when the courts managed to jail some people for "material support" of terrorism for simply expressing approval of terrorism. You see, expressing approval of terrorism in public could lead to people being convinced that terrorism is good, and those people could join terrorist groups, and those terrorist groups could harm America with their help. Like gods, rendering the immaterial material.

That's always been the punchline of the Al-Awlaki case. We've been guided into focusing on the murders of his young children or his American citizenship because children are sympathetic and individualist nationalists are more concerned when things happen to Americans without a legal process than when things happen to others without a legal process. The punchline is that Al-Awlaki was drone killed for being a propagandist, not any terrorist act.

This was also back when the ACLU was a coherent organization, so they objected.

struct A {
int a;
int b;
A() : b(1), a(b) { }
};

.

Here, the b field is used uninitialized because the order of member initializers in the member initializer list is irrelevant;
what matters is the order of declarations in the class definition.
(A related warning, -Wreorder, can be used to warn when the order of member initializers does not match the declaration order.)

I don't get it. Why b? Do they mean a?
It doesn't seem to be a very good idea to decide that since the discriminator cannot predict the output of the generator that prediction is impossible. I have been chipping away at improving ML prediction of non-CSPRNGs for the last few years and prediction is very sensitive to hyperparameter choice (thus far anyway). It seems easy to imagine a PRNG produced in this way that seems usable.. until a more sophisticated network learns to predict it.

I’ve worked in industry supporting UK govt research by helping to define research programmes. This might involve doing horizon scanning to identify tech that could address a customer requirement and then defining risk reduction tasks that would raise the technology readiness level (TRL). Industry could then bid to execute these risk reduction tasks, which would then involve a mix of engineers and academics as required.

Bored Ape startup set to make $300mn in metaverse land sales
I'm a bit confused by housing in San Francisco. The median household income in San Francisco is around $120k, which suggests that making six figures is quite sufficient for living in San Francisco.

But the impression I often get on HN is that you've got people making well above that finding themselves barely able to afford a place to live in SF.

I'm clearly missing something, but what?
What a pathetic article. It claims to confront a question on a lot of people's minds ("Would the US government charge you with computer lawbreaking if you attack only Russian targets") but then just lists some computer laws and says "here are some laws that exist".

I already knew I was using lackluster software, yet I wanted to see just how inept it could be. No real damage could be done, I figured.

I repaired a Casio fx-602p recently, by harvesting a chip from a broken one, one of the tqfp ASICs. Worth it because eBay price from Japan for a working one is $250. I'd like an fx-603p, but they are going for $350.

It took me a couple of readings to make sure I understood what you were saying, thanks for the reply. I think my misunderstanding was from not knowing Julia and thinking about promotion of values as having a permanent effect on the variables used, which isn’t what’s happening. As well, it requires the user to understand what they’re doing when they’re using an operator that uses automatic promotion, and to think about what they want to happen. For example, if Int8 = -10 and UInt16 = 5, and I’m expecting an answer of -5, then I’ll need to be more explicit to get the number I’m looking for. If I’m expecting 65530, then the implicit promotion works fine. Of course, this is no different from any other programming language that allows addition of differing types.

Great point on the path dependence.
Any users who either wants performance or uses a language that can depend on a fast library.
I don't think you're disagreeing with the core point. By guaranteeing (some) mortgages, and setting standards for what mortgages it guarantees, Fannie et al have the effect of being a buyer for all those mortgages, even if it's private investors actually buying them. And since they are such preferential terms, such agencies effectively create an artificial class of lower-rate mortgages whose interest rates you can't get even if you reduce the risk by other means.

Personally, I found the 5c colors nice. I dont see much of a difference to those huge (ugly?) cases that people wrap around their phones today. I dont know many people who are using naked phones today and my feeling is that phones today are not designed anymore to be case-less: the camera bump, razor-sharp edges, too thin bodies.

The 5c flopped because of other reasons: it was artificially made worse than the 5s. It started with 8GB memory that was already WAY TOO LITTLE back then, it had no touchid, it had a bad camera and so much more - and yet, the price was high. Apple learned from the mistakes and changed their segmentation strategy and it worked since then (with the exception of the weird XR thing).
The Open Source Paradox (2020)
The order of initialization is the order of definition, i.e., a then b (because the definition order is `int a; int b;`). So initialization happens like so:

// implicitly, a = undefined;
// implicitly, b = undefined;
a = b;
b = 1;

So b is used when its value is undefined. The undefined value is assigned to a.
Regarding "scouting mode", one time proven trick is assembling a large stable of grad students to do the heavy lifting and tackle the boring parts of research, while one spends most time scouting. The downside is senior researchers tend to devolve into managers. One inspiring thing about the likes of Feynman is it seems they were able to keep tackling problems and doing a lot of the heavy lifting themselves, even late in their careers.
I'm simply pointing out that criticizing someone for electing to have cosmetic surgery is at odds with social values we (at least in the US) profess in other scenarios.
Hopefully the folks whose desk this paperwork ends up on catches it and has the authority to just send back the $10k and transfer the other $10k to bonds.
In this case, a is the first value to be initialized, but it's using the value of `b` (which is uninitialized).

Hmm my assumption is that they heavily curated the training images and captions with human labelers. I doubt for something like this they would just scrape stock images and use it directly.
No, you had it right the first time. It's fairly dull, monotonous drudgery. It's not fun , at least for any unconstrained definition of fun, for the majority of work that needs to be done. I speak as someone who does this for a living for over 10 years. I'm in such high demand as an independent contractor I think about starting a consultancy but one of my big concerns is how to recruit people with a high tolerance for blandness, ambiguity, as well as high conscientiousness. I think the subject matter is not difficult but the personal attributes required to persevere and succeed are rare. For me it's been the "muck is brass" career approach.
> The purpose of building a collider that big and expensive is to find new particles.

This is not true! There's much more to particle physics than simply hunting for new particles. Our knowledge of even the particles we know to exist is massively incomplete. Several next-gen collider proposals are for "Higgs factories" to study the Higgs boson better, for example.
Yeah, I would think this was a dark pattern, but it was probably just simple incompetence. The refund process sounds like it must involve humans and is therefore expensive. Presumably the system had his id number, as you said, a simple data lookup and filter to avoid over deposits would make much more sense. Setting aside the authors bad decisions, he really was dealing with a ridiculously poor system design.

A problem is slowing down the CPU frequency significantly when AVX-512 is involved, e.g. https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/xeon_gold/6262v this, which usually cancels out the benefit in the Real World (tm).
Not sure that's a good idea. The concept of some types being special should not be something exposed to the user.
I think you are conflating a little bit randomness and complexity.

Scott Aaronson in "Quantum Computing since Democritus" cites a study that shows that when people are asked to generate a random sequence the sequence that they write looks _more complex_ than a truly random sequence. For example, when generating a sequence of coin tosses people would try to avoid long sequences of heads of tails, making the probability of those sequences lower than in a truly random sequence.

I decided to try and test this using your game. I generated the results for all three tests using random.org, and ended up somewhere between 10th and 20th percentile of complexity.

Is the art of writing a newsletter still a thing for indie developers?

Or is everybody tweeting #buildingpublic tweets on Twitter and thats it?
I think what people take for granted is this was true even before digital piracy. Most exposure to music was through radio play, and cassette copying was fairly popular from 80s onward. Rock wasn't dead yet (or at any rate, it was far more alive) and concert-going was (I think?) bigger among youth in general. Owning records was always an expensive thing and the majority of music fans didn't try to go broke buying every little thing they enjoyed.

Which brings to mind, I always wonder how pop artists are reaching platinum sales today, because their physical media has zero prestige to most collectors. Is it from radio stations and DJs or something? The figures just don't make sense to me. Pop music fans use Spotify or the radio, by and large.
If that's the core proposition, yes, I want data on it. If that data is obvious and boring, then so is the proposition.

Besides, the panel can't move, only rotate and tilt. Have you actually read the article?
(With rotate and tilt only, pointing directly at the sun should maximize the power output from a single panel even with shade from other objects. You can get a very small amount of movement from the fact that the point of rotation is outside of the plane of the panel. But that's not mentioned at all, is it?)

In any case, if you solve a problem with machine learning that already has a non-machine learning solution, you will get this kind of comment. If on top of that you don't compare the existing solution and yours and show that yours significantly improves performance, it just looks like doing ML for the kicks.
You can "beat" the original? I guess there's the field ending if you follow all of the directions.

Anyone using software that benefits from vector instructions. That includes a variety of compression, search, and image processing algorithms.

Rather than the Apple watch being a Vogue-celebrated product for the 1%, it’s an attractive and high quality product for many people. I see it on the wrists fashion icons and on the wrists of people working at my local grocery store. Billionaires and ordinary people can have basically the same phone, watch, and AirPods. That is the true genius of Cook, reviving the “computer for the rest of us”.

I do think Apple’s design has become a little stale, but if there has to be a choice of once vs the other they are currently picking the right one. Let’s not forget that the vaunted focus on design has given us a mouse with the charger on the bottom as well as innumerable other botches over the years. I am glad Apple was willing to push the envelope, but some of that stubbornness has worked against them.
The system is so poorly designed, who's to say his unusual behavior will be handled properly? That second 10K might just disappear. He let curiosity override the rational, cynical side of his brain. It happens.

The majority of complications when going through a process like this come from tax considerations: if you're not taking this action as an immediate tax minimisation strategy, you do not need to worry about things like goodwill valuations, selling your app to the company etc. and instead you can just transfer the ownership by virtue of reassigning the ownership from you to your company on whichever platforms record it -- as you describe.

Regarding your email address and business name: a business name can be changed, and there's no importance associated with the domain name you use so this is a non-issue. You can register a new domain that mirrors your current, for example if you use `example.com` you can register `example.limited` in addition and use that when you feel it's appropriate if you'd like there to be a clear distinction.

Ultimately, none of this really matters for a small consultancy company. The volumes you're describing are negligible, and any competent accountant will have had extensive experience with this situation so they'll hand-hold you through the entire process, or you can save yourself money and use a neo-accountant like Crunch (crunch.co.uk) which provides all the advice and insight that you're looking for in their documentation.

The most important thing to understand is that in the UK, all company information is public. If you don't want the business finances exposed, then registering as a limited company is a bad idea: anybody can look up your accounts.
