Most of the fights over water in the central valley is over water coming from the American and Sacramento rivers, not the Colorado river.

Bonds were raised and contracts were made with farmers for X gallons at Y price. The state water project doesn't want to uphold the contracts and this is what the farmers are demanding.

There is a separate fight also going on about new laws preventing farmers pumping their own water with private wells. The state holds that the new laws supersede the water rights of the farmers, but that restricting their use does not constitute eminent domain and the farmers do not need to be compensated. There are a number of heated cases making their way through the courts regarding this now.

Last, the waters imported from the Colorado River are used for drinking and domestic use, not for agriculture.
Frankly it's also fine if there isn't. Taking street cars to the track is a tiny niche and Toyota needn't cater to it. Aftermarket modding is an option anyway.

That quote is wrong. Linux can support over a million threads. Of course they can't all be "active" since there isn't more than a few hundred hardware threads, but that's also true of green threads.
this is the same challenge we have with fossil fuels. It will only get more difficult the longer we delay

Yeah I would imagine anything blocking would need special support, which is definitely a downside. Async/await is no different in that regard, but since explicitely marked, you know anything that isn't "awaited" and yet blocks is gonna break things, so might be easier to avoid mishaps in practice.
What you just did to that person's snippet isn't cool. You just tried to rally your followers on Twitter against the author, and then when you got asked about it you deleted the tweet but still doubled down.
Peer Learning: Your developer adoption safety net
That makes sense. It’s not something that would solve itself then if that’s true - i don’t know that my demand for fuel is driving up the cost of my corn based foods and vice versa. I’m not deciding to drive less miles or take alternative transport because i want cheaper food - because i don’t know that connection exists.

Tricky problem.
OK first of all, I think they picked the wrong example with doctors, because that one comes with a lot more ethical and emotional baggage than the others referenced.

For something like consulting, the author's proposal sounds like an overcomplicated "pay for performance" model.

For example: Advertising agencies get paid based on the conversions they drive, law firms get a cut of winnings, whistleblowers get a percentage of fine, recruiters get a fee based on placement, etc...

TODO: implement this system and update all tools to find them in my code base.

/JK

In our group we have the rule to add a task/story/feature ID when you add a //todo in the code. It helped us to prioritize and close todos. If the task was not prioritized for a long time (became overdue) or was rejected the todo is also removed from code. Apparently it was not deemed important enough to implement it and current code became the accepted version.
Prices going up doesn’t mean everyone can continue to consume as much as before if they are willing to pay for it. Nor is food perfectly fungible across continents. Your American family may just be able to outspend someone in Senegal, even if they waste half of the food while the other guy is starving. And even if they somehow buy less, they may just buy less beef, which is still to expensive for the world’s poor to buy, may not even be raised, and a;l that’s saved is some animal feed unfit for human consumption, rotting in Iowa.

Sure, it’ll all adjust, just not at the timescale necessary.
Huh? 30 years ago Nissans and Toyotas had negligible pickup marketshare (at least in the US, not sure about Canada?). Anyway, the average retail price of gas back then was ~$1/gallon, so 9mpg wasn't a major deal (considerably cheaper than a 30mpg sedan today).
Right. That's all good, but the important question is: what will your desk look like at Intel?[1]

Yep, I was not being constructive. I have apologized to the author of the snippet and deleted my comment.

EDIT to clarify for posterity: I inaccurately connected the OP's political opinions to a position I disagree with, and wanted to talk about it, but opened the conversation in a very unconstructive way and got defensive. That's my bad. In order to not get piled on, or be tempted to continue the conversation, I've deleted the relevant posts. I'll leave this one up as a mea culpa.
Frames trigger bad memories for some older devs for how they were abused but this is really the best way to do it. Doesn't depend on server modules for includes, and even text-mode browsers generally support frames (but many do not support JavaScript).
phrasing it this way rubs me the wrong way, it gives people without a good understanding of science the idea that scientists are just wildly wrong all the time like the way people are casually wrong all the time.

it's more like newton was 95% right, but einstein's successor theory was 99% right and covered some cases where newtons 95% right results were measurably wrong enough that it made an important difference. and we already know that einstein's theory has holes, we just don't know how to fix them

Thanks for the link. It's an interesting read. But the rather hyperbolic route the author takes in this article-ifesto raises the question of whether their criticism of self-righteousness is more like projection of their own weakness directly onto the WaPo.

The author also speaks of the resilience of "reality" while seemingly working to spin a new model of reality out of whole cloth. The latter is fine with me and aligns with their position of how the fifth wave is operating, but taking both of those positions in one article always seems to point out a kind of inner conflict.

It's too bad because my gut tells me that the fifth wave as described could easily reconcile these kinds of things and maybe even help the WaPo out along the way. And if the fifth wave is really logically what the author says it is, there should be no reason for bashing the WaPo...as opposed to say pitying it? There's a lot of emotion in the mix, and it distracts.
SOPHIA isn't a 747-400; if it was, it would probably still be flying. Instead, it's the now-extremely-rare 747SP, a 747-100 derivative designed for special long range operations:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_747SP

The original 747-100 had a much shorter range than the 747-400 (due to earlier, fuel-thirsty engines and a bunch of other early design decisions). The SP was shortened and modified extensively to achieve roughly the range of the -400, albeit with fewer passengers, but was obsolescent by the early 1980s.

SOFIA was built into an aircraft that first flew in 1977: today it's a 45-year old example of a plane with a 30 year design life, and unlike the B-52 there is no deep-pocket Pentagon contract paying for long-term maintenance.

(Yes, putting her out to pasture in an aviation museum would be the ideal fate for this historic aircraft.)

I added a snippt which also explains the user side, I doubt either has a benefit. both can be misued. I already seen bad go code because of this and I've also seen bad C# code.
In fact go code is harder to reason because of this, since you do not know exactly when a function spawns a new goroutine.
Let's look at a few of the most impressive applications of machine learning:

- Classification in computer vision

- Protein folding (AlphaFold)

- Image generation (Dall-E 2)

- Answering general language queries (GPT-3)

It's unclear how any of these applications could have been tackled _without_ machine learning. We had no solid grasp on these problems before ML, with the exception of protein folding. I think you are being cynical. Of course not every ML project will result in a home run success. Should that make us sceptical of the entire field?

Hey! I'm a firmware/software engineer that started and sold a business with an ME and EE – happy to discuss if you'd like, my email is similar to my username and hinted at in my bio.

Long story short, though, we didn't take any investment, government paperwork is best done by lawyers, and once we got relatively big we hired a CEO.

Overall, the takeaway for me is that (assuming some amount of good luck), no one aspect of running a business is particularly difficult; it's just that there are a lot of things, and it takes a ton of energy.

Likewise, cf. The Catastrophe, when every coastal city around the Mediterranean was sacked c. BCE 1190, beginning a 300-year dark age, which appears to have started with a multi-year region-wide drought; although it is hard to be sure at this remove, especially when record-keeping evaporated along with civilization itself. Archaeology has had to fill in the blanks.
> I wonder why we went down that whole async/await craze with so many languages?

We addressed this, albeit very briefly, in the Alternatives section of the JEP: https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/425

There are multiple reasons:

1. Languages that don't already have threads have an implicit assumption built into all existing code that program state cannot change concurrently. This is why scheduling points need to be marked explicitly, and why adding threads — whether user-mode or OS — might break existing code in some very tricky ways. That's the case of JavaScript.

2. Some languages target an IR without control over its backend, making an efficient implementation of user-mode threads difficult, if not impossible. async/await requires only changes to the frontend compiler. That's the case of Kotlin, and, perhaps to a lesser extent, Rust.

3. Some languages have technical features that make implementing user-mode threads efficiently more difficult than in others. Pointers into the stack and careful control over memory allocation make this more challenging in languages like C++ and Rust than in Java.

Human centered design research established long ago that GUI applications are easier to learn and easier to use. Terminals are a good 'lowest common denominator' due to their simple design and low cost implementation. People want the benefits of GUI with the portability of terminal applications which has resulted in ASCII-art boxes, menus, progress bars, trees, etc. These fancy new terminal emulators further enable these high-end-for-a-terminal-though-low-end-for-a-GUI features.

Same, but through an MVNO (Ting). This way I don't have my details leaked in T-Mobile's annual data breach.

General info is documented at https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_Carrier_Support
The original paper examines some likely causes for failure to encode relational details between subjects, e.g. the corgi with a red hat and green necktie or vice versa chosen seemingly at random. The model seems to learn about contrasting subjects but not track particularly which attributes belong to which subjects. This is, as far as I can tell from the original paper, inherent in the training and would require different data sets or more parameters to learn a greater number of subject-attribute associations in each image.

I wonder if you've had an in-person conversation with someone who would identify as being a part of the AGI safety community. I've talked with several people and their arguments are a lot more sophisticated than an intuition that ML models would have human motivations.
