Perhaps, but there's all kinds of tangentially-related stuff that could have been leaked but wasn't. Nor was mentioned by Snowden. One already-public example being the 2004 Nimitz incident, which is of genuine national security concern.

I know Snowden is highly-revered around here, but he's not all-knowing, and I'm fairly certain he did not have access to the entire US IC store of intel.
A lot don't?

Which is to say, a great deal of people only trust the technology, and merely understand that you have to use the exchanges to participate; i.e. but end up on self-hosted wallets.

Q: Wasn’t ZZ an attempt to avoid the crazy ZBF2L algorithms and came after ZB? People understood the value of ZBLL (hell, even I wrote out all the speed-oriented algorithms for it) but everyone doubted the viability of ZBF2L, so they tried to find other ways of orienting edges. Or was ZZ around before and people just realized they could apply ZBLL to it?
MobX doesn't intrinsically need classes, they just like to use them in a lot of the examples
Yeah, I’ve found the r/rust community very welcoming. The rust folks on stackoverflow much less so.
Tonal (https://tonal.com) | DevOps, Engineering, Managers, Marketing, Hardware, Product, Data Science, Cybersecurity... | Full time, ONSITE or US/Canada REMOTE depending on role.

Tonal is the smartest home gym and personal trainer, made by a diverse team of experts who applied decades of research to reinvent strength training. We are passionate about building products that transform lives and about crafting teams that transform the status quo. Together, we can be our strongest.

My team is hiring an AppSec (Application Security Engineer) - https://jobs.lever.co/tonal/ebd0bc12-eb54-4dd9-8082-e32672a5... - and DevOps (https://jobs.lever.co/tonal/067dd521-f629-4d15-b429-d8d20a22...), both roles would be considered for remote. There are tons of other positions available in software, hardware, marketing and sales, data science and ML. Check us out and apply on https://www.tonal.com/careers/

Note that due to a quirk of our jobs system there might be multiple posts for the same job in various locales. Our offices are in LA, NY, SF, Austin, and Toronto.
Note that the newer P1/X1E Gen 4 have a much upgraded cooling system if you configure it with an Nvidia 3070 or higher. I don't experience any heat issues, even during heavy compilation and integration test work. The exception is if I run games at 4k resolution on an external monitor, then the GPU appears to overheat, resulting in the screen randomly going black.

That's fair, it actually sounds more like a cookie shop where you need to keep baking the cookies for them to sell, even though these cookies can be sold multiple times you still need to keep baking some fresh ones.
My opinion: very few companies with tech-focused founders are going to succeed unless those founders transition to a sales and marketing mindset. I think theres a couple reasons for this: The first is, if you're passionate about the product youre building, nobody else is going to communicate that as well as you are. Secondly, engineers love to build nice and shiny new things, often with very little real world feedback. This endless build cycle will drive you into the ground. Being connected to your clients, through sales & marketing, will close that feedback loop.

Of course, YMMV and this is also very product dependent. Some products sell themselves. Most don't however.

If it's pure operational stuff you're looking to offload, you need a COO.
This! And I'd also add Qualcomm to the list of CPU companies that I hope to succeed.

Qualcomm is designing desktop-level ARM chips to compete with Apple's M series. The team came from Apple via a startup acquisition (Nuvia). Will be interesting to see how that turns out.
from what I understand / have read. yields go down per acre when moving from synthetic fertilizer to organic / natural fertilization. not just in the immediate, but forever. soil health, nutrition, crop resilience all go up, input and input cost go down, but so does overall yield per acre.

from all the reading I have done, and in my own experience with a shitty 3acre hobby farm, overall yield per acre never reaches an equivalent to modern destructive farming practices.

I mean, the need for engine compatibility was part of the push for ethanol, it isn't some big secret, and there are millions of vehicles that have no issues with ethanol gasoline. Blame the organizers, not the ethanol.
I used to have a Honda Civic with a sticky throttle. Luckily it was a manual transmission so it wasn't a big deal. Just push in the clutch and pull the pedal up with my toe then replace/repair the throttle whenever is convenient. No unintended acceleration and no fiery wrecks.

I kind of wonder if we're heading the wrong direction with drive by wire cars. In aerospace it makes a lot of sense, especially when you are super dedicated to safe coding. But in a consumer vehicle? Not so great. Then again, Boeing hasn't been doing great with it either.
Even Toyota who developed the JIT system realized that you can't JIT everything.
Maybe this is just my soft, theory-laiden pure math brain talking, but I'd be a lot less impressed with machine learning if we had a decent formal understanding of them. As is they're way weirder than I think most engineering types give them credit for. But then again, that's how I feel about a lot of applied stuff, it all feels a little magic. I can read the papers, I can mess around with it, but somehow it's still surprising how well it can work.
I think 2FA still has value against all the attackers who aren’t email server admins, like phishers. I think they are a much bigger threat.
Right, but I can't see it being any better than autopilot.

It still doesn't answer the question "why would I want that?", either.
this looks sick and probably makes materialized views (without updating everything at once) a little bit more easier.
https://www.techrxiv.org/articles/preprint/The_Carbon_Footpr... cites Bender, E.M., et al., 2021, On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots: Can Language Models Be Too Big?. ACM
Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency.

In short, Jeff Dean (and others at Google) cited the finally published (not by Google) version of the Parrots paper. The citation [20] is in the context of the paper:

"The opening quote in Section 1 is based on a 2019 study from the University of Massachusetts
(UMass) that estimated the environmental impact of training [2]. More than 1000 papers cite this paper
as the source for the impact on carbon emissions of ML models, e.g., [1,6,7,17,18,19,20]."

in which the authors of this paper point out that the Parrots paper used what is likely a large overestimate of the carbon emissions from training. This is consistent with my understanding (that the power/emissions part of the Parrots paper isn't well backed by evidence).
The failure mode of a physical throttle cable is almost always much more gradual than with a computer bug, which can effectively kill you instantly without warning.
The US produces 12 million metric tonnes out of the world's 60 million metric tonnes of beef[1] or 20%. Hardly microscopic.

Ran out of edit time, but wanted to add a quick note:

- I didn't look at the presented source code close enough, but the code in the article does appear to update the cloudflare IPs in a loop. So in the presented code it's not an issue to get out of date, but for anyone replicating this, would be something to consider.
- Also of note, there is a reason security minded folks don't like using the IP address for identity, as the whitelist likely covers far more than necessary, and is treated with less scrutiny than something like a TLS certificate. For a personal blog though I don't think this is really a concern. But might be a consideration for a company with something to protect.

Humanity can travel 'incredibly fast' in space explored [video]
It is their loss, and I don't want to work with organizations that hire like that. But that's how hiring is done in academia. A lot of the non-academic research labs work similarly. (Classified research does not have strict publication requirements in my experience, though.)

Having a job doing valuable research would be nice. I'm not too picky about the topic, but it seems that most employers view the capabilities of a candidate very narrowly. So I'm probably stuck with things like what I did during my PhD.
Here comes the usual “why save x and not x+y”. You sir save nobody and complain.

I would suggest that fertilizer prices are higher due to cost increases to manufacture them but also because grain prices are higher. There seems to be a relationship between the 2 which is independent of actual costs to manufacture the inputs. As grain prices increase input costs increase, likewise with the inverse, grain prices decrease input prices decrease. Supply and demand for sure but there seems to be market forces outside of simply supply vs demand.
What heppens when you think you have the right data but don't?

How about when everyone else thinks they have the right data, but don't, you do, but can't scale because of institutional inertia and risk?

Q.E.D.

Farming and logistics are infuriatingly hard problems, toghtly coupled with the fundamental problems of signaling and distributed systems.
Because many of the examples seem to show that the system easily misunderstands certain grammatical implications (prepositional relations, etc), I wonder if it would benefit from of different sort of input system in which the relationships of the objects in the desired image are more concretely defined, something more like a tree graph perhaps? Or perhaps this would be very difficult to implement?

At the very least, seems it would be useful for users to edit a given output so that it can be continually tweaked, keeping what they like about an image (e.g. object layout, proportions, color scheme) while editing other aspects.

On modern Linux systems the way to do it is using PRIME render offload.

That way, the Intel (or AMD in my case) integrated GPU will be used normally, with the Nvidia GPU fully powered down (you need a new enough card for this). Then, when you need it, you can use a command or environment variable or graphical launcher to signal to use the dGPU for offloading.

The GPU will then power on and render to a virtual display, and the framebuffer will be copied to the framebuffer of the relevant application on-the-fly.

Once no more applications are using the NVidia GPU, it will power down.

This way, there is no need to use a KVM, or do PCI passthrough, or anything of the sort, it mostly "just works".

If the (very small) overhead of passing through the iGPU is too much and your laptop supports it, you can also using MUX graphics and restart the DM with a config that will allow the laptop to rewire the screen into the dGPU, but I have never found this necessary or helpful.
I would prefer machine learning to learn critical thinking
As others have pointed out, the US is much less dense than the Netherlands and also the bulk of our development happened in a post-car context--the US literally evolved around the car, and consequently doing away with cars is a much less realistic proposition for the US than it is for the Netherlands.

To that point, most of our streets, roads, and parking spaces are much wider than yours, and can accommodate larger vehicles. As others have noted, we have more people in remote areas, and while Netherlands is obviously an agricultural superpower, your farms are smaller than ours (larger farms require larger equipment).
> I'm trying to get my head around how I would know something is the old school way that should be replaced with an idiomatic Modern C++ equivalent without knowing what the old school thing is in the first place.

I'd recommend ISO C++ FAQ (https://isocpp.org/faq) as a starting point.

I think it's important to know the new, recommended way for each of the old, worse way. Multiple ways to do things is an integral part of learning C++ - even going back to the original release (new vs. malloc, etc) ;)
In the late 80s', as a teenager, I received an offer from a doctor about improving a program that I had written. I turned down the offer. I wondered what would have happened if I picked it up instead.

In the early 90s', on a whim, for my first vacations as professional, I decided to go to NY. I stayed in a mostly derelict building in Harlem. There I met my future wife.

So many inflection points in our lives.
Obie | YC S19 | Senior Full Stack Engineer | Chicago, IL | REMOTE | Full Time
Obie is looking for passionate, talented senior software engineers to join us with experience in Javascript, React, Typescript, Node.js, GraphQL and unit/integration testing. A small pivot in our journey has led to a strong product-market fit and we are moving quickly to build something incredible.

If you own a building with leases to tenants, you need insurance - whether the economy is growing or not. It is also an industry that has not evolved to use modern technology: workflows are manual, communication is messy and time-consuming, and people often don't know what they're buying or why they're buying it. Obie sells commercial real estate insurance in a new way: one that emphasizes transparency and human-centric automation.

We are a venture-backed technology company. Our early success is in large part due to our unwavering standards in hiring. We recognize that our product is only as good as the people building and promoting it. We look for individuals who find solutions by going through the cycle of ideation to implementation with curiosity, rigor and a highly analytical lens.

At Obie, we judge people based on the merit of their work. If you are passionate about what this role entails, are excited by solving real problems, and you want to help shape the future of commercial real estate, we want to hear from you.

We're based in Chicago, have an office in Florida, and remote employees across the US and Canada.

We welcome US/Canadian based remote applicants, but be warned: we'll try to persuade you to move to the City by the Lake.

Email me directly for more info or to set up a chat! Would love to learn more about you: Rebecca at r.geier@obierisk.com

I'd also say that the strategic problem space is seldom located where the tactical problems space is that "solves" the strategic problem. And we can not know where or how far away the latter is. You see this a lot when you study the history of technology. What often happens is "Survivorship Bias" - you don't hear about all the other attempts that didn't work - so the historic narrative tries to form a story where "They knew all along" and that's seldom substantiated by actual history or facts.
Good point. Still, it feels very different from other techs that also seemed somewhat inevitable? Like, regardless of what they were called, I don't recall this level of "hand-held computers in your pocket are a scam and will never be a thing?"

I suppose it's like, regardless of what you think of it, the fact is that there's a ton of money going into this crypto thing. It will be a significant thing, full stop. And the tone doesn't seem like "how will we ride this out," but instead sort of sticking your finger in your ears and going blah blah crypto will never be a thing?
