If I’m being honest, I don’t think this law is particularly import, because it’s a top down approach. All that seems to do is elevate the people who are already successful in the existing framework. Women who work like men will get those seats. A bottom-up approach seems more valuable. Mandating equality in schools, hiring, etc.

But we can’t have the discussion of what the best way to undo historical inequality, if we don’t agree that historical inequality happened, that it’s effects are still being felt today, and that the rate at which it’s being equalized is not enough - if the world is biased against you for your entire lifetime then it’s not useful to say “well it improved!”

If life is a board game, you’re arguing for the rules of the game: that these rules are enough to ensure that it’s fair. What I’m saying is that if life is a board game, it’s one where the game doesn’t start from scratch when you’re born - the people who were playing before you arrived have a far bigger influence on how the game unfolds for you than the theoretical fairness of the rules. Which means if you’re born into the right identity, the rules protect you. If you’re born into the wrong identity, the rules keep the game stacked against you.

And if you call that communism, well then I guess I’m a commie, but i really do think communism has a lot more to do with collective ownership of the means of production than mandating equal representation in positions of power
How "far" from the training art is the resulting generated art? Do the generated cards have features which are recognizably lifted from the training data?
That seems comprehensive. I still don't understand how this squares with private ownership, where that ownership includes the ability to do what you want with your property. This seems to mandate that Texans can force people to pay for other people's speech, which the payers may actually strongly disagree with.

It's even more precarious for US immigrants where many types of immigrant visa (H1B, L1, TN) are tied to continuing to hold a specific job.

Don't like that job anymore? Get laid off, or reclassified into a different position? Oops, you're in violation of your visa, you have a week to leave the country.

There's a huge power imbalance between the class of workers that have US permanent residency or citizenship, and those on work visas.
You are exactly me. Right down to (Robocop). But I still haven't figured out how to hit that delete button. As much as I know I need to. I'm sitting on 30TB now of stuff I'll never ever ever watch again. But I just can't delete it.
The device tree is in mainline. The patch is for enabling the HW video decoder, which is currently being reviewed for 5.19. The person on IRC just pointed to the patch.
The amount of privilege in this comment is amazing. Not everyone has an in-demand IT career. Some people are new to the work force, some are old and exposed to ageism. Some are non-binary, some are women, some are minorities. Some are poor. Some can't work remote, some need special accommodations due to disability, some can't afford the costs of relocating.
I don't know. How is it possible to even have a system of laws without an infinite set of lawyers and appellate courts?
This isn't super related, but the unexpected complication I've run into as I've tried to scale my team is that nobody has the knowledge I have, so I've got to spend most of my time showing folks how to do the work.

The problem here is that if I'm not being productive (I'm teaching), and the other devs are not being productive (they don't know the domain), then nobody is productive.

You'd think that'd level out eventually as the other devs grow, but on short runways, there really isn't time for that.

However, we can't hire devs who know the domain because a) they're not looking for jobs and b) the ones who are we can't afford.

So it's just me, teaching other devs, when I could/should be pounding out code so we can get a few more sales, which will justify the next round.

Unintuitively, it probably didn't make sense to hire anyone else, but that feels weird because then it's just me in a dark room churning out code nobody's reviewed, and there really is plenty of work to do, it's just all work only I seem to be able to do.

I assume this is standard for early stage startups who haven't yet found their P/M fit, but it is odd.
There are pretty regular esports scandals involving cheating. Heck, we've seen players bring their cheats in via special drivers embedded in their peripherals (which is why almost every serious in-person tournament provides peripherals + PC and does not allow the player access to them outside of supervision).
One way to appreciate a piece of art is to recognize the technical skill that was applied in creating it. The David's veins and or Jesus's musculature and Mary's flowing robes in the Pieta are virtuosic demonstrations of Michelangelo's skill in representing lifelike human scenes.

That said, skill in creating realistic representation is not the only measure of art's value. Consider Starry Night by Van Gogh. What is it that makes this such a striking and stirring vision of the night sky? It is certainly not a photo-realistic rendering of the stars and moon. Instead, I think it represents a radically different perspective and I find beauty in art that allows me to have a different vision of the world. A more extreme example of the same idea is Islamic art, which strictly forbids representations of life, but still strives to express a vision of god/allah. Consider the mosque ceilings in this twitter thread: https://twitter.com/BaytAlFann/status/1517074277312389121. There is absolutely no representation of any recognizable form, no people, no animals. Only geometry. Yet, they are undeniably beautiful. Why is that?

For Picasso, I would make a similar argument. No, his art doesn't immediately strike one through its technical skill. This is not the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. However, what it provides is a completely different perspective. Faces are inverted and laid flat, arms are arranged in strange configurations. Try to look at a scene around you, right now, and imagine how Picasso would see it. Then, I think you'll see how extremely peculiar and valuable his art is.
>With UST, the issuer controlled the blockchain and shut it down completely.

The issuer didn't control Terra. The Terra blockchain is unable to come to connesus about creating a new block if 33% of the staked Luna goes offline. You just have to get the largest validators to agree to go offline and it will stop.
You can turn off retweets for accounts that you follow, btw. I use lists in a third party app for a chronological feed.

I want both, DNSSEC and DNSCrypt.

WebPKI is a joke because it lacks name constraints and so isn't and can't be hierarchical. DNSSEC is a true PKI -- you can still have multiple roots if you like and don't trust ., but it's got name constraints, so whatever domain you graft an alternate PKI at, from there on down you get bound to that PKI. This is really, truly fantastic.

Add DANE and you have a complete replacement for WebPKI.

DNSCrypt is needed to increase confidentiality, it's cheaper than DNSQuic and such things. Unfortunately .'s and com's and major TLDs' NSes are unlikely to want to waste CPU cycles on any DNS confidentiality solution, and even if some TLDs did, unless clients use QName minimization, users gain no confidentiality -- . and the TLDs all have to adopt it.

The two, together, would be truly fantastic.
It is tough.

My approach when learning new protocols like Raft or Paxos is to implement them in Pluscal (TLA+'s higher-level language) or P (https://github.com/p-org/P). I've found that helps separate the protocol-level concerns from the implementation-level concerns (sockets? wire format?) in a way that reduces the difficulty of learning the protocol.

Google had amazingly below-average dev tools when I was there. It was standard in my org to have multi-minute builds, with input/output streamed to/from a remote server. Yes, every keystroke had a small but perceptible delay.
I was working on an outlier project that took over 30 minutes to build for a single-character change. I never learned as slowly as I did during my time there.
Startups generally have faster tech, bigcos generally have more customized tech with more options and that can operate ‘at scale.’

> The creatively named “Windows.Gaming.Input” (WGI) is the newest input API for Windows.

For now! The Windows.Gaming.Input API is the Xbox One API, and has been around since Windows 8 for UWP and the Xbox One SDK. The new one is GameInput [0], which is used on the Xbox One X by Microsoft's new gaming SDK, the GDK. It's not yet on Windows, but it is, ostensibly, coming soon...

I'm having a similar problem, with (I think, can't tell yet) Android clients.

My cert was updated by certbot a couple of days ago, and suddenly certain (old, presumably) Android clients are failing to connect.

I had to fix the problem that happened in Sept 2021 (with the "X3" cert expiring), but now, two or three certbot runs since, it's a problem again.

Not clear what the problem is, also looking for insights.

It's great to see deeper pieces about developer productivity - in this case starting from first principles and the actual experience of developers. The notion of feedback loops has also been explored in e.g. https://martinfowler.com/articles/developer-effectiveness.ht...

The bad reputation of developer productivity metrics comes from the misguided assumption that developers should be measured. The better approach is to treat developers as customers of the management team / engineering enablement team /etc. In that sense, developer productivity is actually a measurement of management effectiveness / organizational health.

Once you build your developer productivity approach on this basis, what needs to be measured becomes much clearer - for example: interruptions caused by meetings, performance of local tooling like local builds, latency of CI, number of on-call pages triggering outside business hours, etc.

The right set of metrics depends on your team and can be sourced from surveys and just talking to people about what's painful on a daily basis. As a quick and dirty solution, I'd even recommend piping Github webhooks and other events to a product analytics tool like Amplitude or Mixpanel. You'd be surprised how fast you can understand things like build or CI latency by using a classic funnel visualization.

A lot of great engineering teams are migrating to this approach, especially when they have a dedicated platform / enablement / productivity engineering team.
> Some bosses absolutely have zero respect for personal time and space.

Pecking order is everything.

In most organizations, exercising said disrespect for subordinates is a key method for management to demonstrate, enforce, and enjoy their higher social status.

Similarly, subordinates must exercise respect and deference to the time, space, and attention of management. This is a key method to help employees demonstrate, acknowledge, and internalize their lower social status.

Any threats to the status hierarchy threaten the structure of the organization and are usually dealt with harshly.

Fairness isn't a perk applied to a team, it is a property of the game.

Unless "ability to travel during a pandemic" is considered a skill for this game, it should not be factored into the competition. So, if teams who can't travel to be game are going to be included, then the host must find a way to provide a fair game. This means that remote and local players should have the same latency.
I'll still pick the least shitty smallest one that I can get.
Once it's scrolled off the top of the screen you're basically at the mercy of your terminal emulator's scrollback history. Some might have an escape sequence available to recall it but I there isn't any standard way of doing it.

You'd be better off piping into less / more / most. These are called "pagers" and are designed to do this. eg

cat large-file | grep common-phrase | less
Your first post in this thread wasn't a clear generalization, it was a vague statement about what 'women do'. This could be interpreted as saying 'all women do', 'many women do', 'more women than men do', 'some women do', or 'modal women do'.
The one you’re most familiar with and the one that has the most sdk and library support. It’s one of the reasons I always start with nodejs. Everything I’m going to need has already been figured out and published. Everything I will need… hopefully I get funding lmao.
> Hakenkreuz is not the German word for swastika anymore than swastika is the Sanskrit word for Hakenkreuz.

In the sense that a dictionary translates one to the other and vice versa, sure, you're correct.
Aegis is continually evolving with new sensors, processing, and missiles and far from obsolete. It's no coincidence that China is building similar capabilities into its own Destroyers.

I definitely would't call the scale of missile defense in the fleet limited. Each carrier group would contain and be screened by Destroyers and Cruisers with several hundred interceptors ready to go between them.
I go to aliexpress, and I see a number of 4" screens. Some even come with capacitive touch sensors mounted on top.

Yes, they are low-resolution by today's standards, something like 800x480. Still, they are available for those who might be considering to produce a really compact phone. Instead, they go to high-end coffee machines and the like, and to RPi tinkerers.

My hunch that the limiting factor would mostly be the battery. Modern radios and modern CPUs and GPUs consume more, and you don't want to market a very slow phone, or a phone that has 6 hours of daily usage worth of battery. And you can't hide as much battery behind a small screen.
The root zone doesn't change often. You can pin . or even run your own private . with pinned . content if you don't trust the root.

If you do, then you get MITM protection.

If you don't, but choose to use QName minimization, you still get a modicum of MITM protection: because the attacker would have to choose to get in the middle without having enough knowledge of whether a particular upcoming TLS connection (or whatever) will be of particular interest.

Really, DNSSEC is infinitely better than the WebPKI, even WebPKI+CT, especially when DNSSEC clients use QName minimization, and even more so when clients pin copies of . from time to time.

this advice from twitter users is always the same and its always so bizarre. just invest thousands of hours into cultivating your own feed through the following process: every time you get insulted by some child/idiot/bot, just select the account of that individual person then block them or mute or unfollow. do this thousands (or millions?) of times for every individual person on twitter. jesus christ i cant think of something more unappealing.

the worst part of this is the more you invest into making it useable, the worse it is when big brother blocks/mutes you; the more enmeshed you are into this MCI tool for manufacturing consent. it sounds like the type of person who would be into twitter is the type of person who likes to spend a lot of time researching which credit card gives the best 2% cash back or whatever. genuinely just gross and boring to the point of being repulsive to most people on earth
`tc` would give you non-deterministic microbursts that would be hard to quantify as to whether they impacted competitive integrity. This is an incredibly complex problem if they actually care about millisecond level precision in small duty cycles.
This result is unsurprising. "Give a model a bunch of unique datasets and it can do a bunch of unique things." There's nothing showing any sort of generalized learning or capability here.
In the early days of the labor movement when factory workers went on strike they had the problem of scabs -temporary workers brought in. These days any job done fully online can be outsourced, do you think we'll see instances of virtual scabs?

Remember the hurricane that hit Virginia in 2012 or 2013? I wasn't even "on call" - i was just the only person with credentials. I told the DBA and the boss and the CTO that you can't just fix an outage at a cloud provider due to hurricane with telnet and a prayer candle.

Then i opened a bottle of whisky, and listened to them try to figure out how much data we lost, until about 5 AM. I don't remember if i was hourly contract or hourly employee at that point, but i did get ~8 hours of pay that evening for doing nothing but not unmuting my voice on the phone call!

I don't do Disaster Recovery anymore, no one really listens.
What this is describing is a file server. Nothing to do with pirating.

I have all my movies on my local fileserver but they are not pirated. I buy the DVDs and I rip them for storage.
I like Kotlin and would probably use it but I just couldn't get over the lack of list / map literals. Seems like they never could figure out how to get them to mesh with the static typing. It's just too useful to be able to write nested structures cleanly and simply inline for ad hoc / exploratory analysis.

2/3rds of that cost is labor. 3 ton multi-zone heatpump kit is $2500-3500, another $250-500 for an electrician to pull #6s and a ground to a 60A disconnect outside and sealtite whip into the heatpump, and 60-80 hrs at $125/hr to install the heat pump and air handlers, including all the exterior wall penetrations and sealing, running glycol lines, installing thermostats, wiring air handlers, etc.

> It may not be rational. I know some people think I am crazy.

It's entirely rational. The availability of music/video on streaming services is very ephemeral.

If you really like something, buy a copy and store it locally.
Just checked using a camera and you're right; a person right around "conversation distance" from the camera focusing at 35mm looks pretty natural in frame for a video call. It sounds like I underestimated modern continuous autofocus. Great info from you and the sibling comments, thanks.
I'm a dev. There's a certain amount of "being available" that comes with the job. I accept it... as long as it's rare.

At a previous job, we had a yearly trade show that we displayed at. I knew that the month before, I was going to be working more than 40 hours a week. The rest of the year was pretty much straight 40 hour weeks. I accepted that.

At my current job, my boss once called me in at 9 PM for an emergency. I was there until 1 AM (and he was there both before me and later than me). That happened once (in 13 years). I accept that.

If it's every week, that's a management problem, not a worker problem. I'm not management, and they don't pay me to fix management problems.
How are bots insulting you? That's just impressive more than anything.
I'm a fairly large person (185 cm and decent sized hands), but I prefer the mini, and in my Android days used the Xperia mini. I don't particularly want a large phone on a day-to-day basis.

Unfortunately it seems that it's a niche that doesn't generate enough revenue to get broader support.
You seem to be arguing in bad faith.

Being a few years old does not make my example less valid. (Arguably the opposite, given that it still works well today.) The point is that it meets GP's needs.

Sony's poor marketing strategy was not caused by one phone model, nor is it a requirement for small phones in general.

You could easily adjust the numbers I quoted to estimate battery life with Google services running. Assume half, or a third, if you like. It would still meet GP's needs.
Agreed. The fingernail nostrils, what looks like "09: or 90 reversed on the bridge of the nose, the eyeball-ish ear canal...
I just replaced the battery on my pixel 3. I also replaced the USB C port, because it was cheap and the phone was open. It's pretty simple to do, just tedious. I would recommend buying a replacement back as well so you don't have to worry about keeping the glass intact.

I would love a smaller phone then the pixel 3 but I'll stick with this for now, it's my absolute max size.
It’s possible that in serving the function of prediction, the model forms a complex internal representation akin even to goals, motivations, etc. It is true that DL architectures are not explicitly designed to do this, not yet anyway. But my point is that the task of prediction can give rise to such architectural patterns. According to Karl Friston’s Free Energy Principle, biological brains serve the purpose of predicting the value of different actions available.
The addressable market of Twitter users is probably 1% that of email.
You will learn a lot more in option 2. Things you can't learn from books, videos or podcasts.

However expect to be more stressed out.

It all depends what you prefer. One option isn't better than the other. Just pick your poison.
It's supported since late 2018 in the kernel, based on generic v4l2-requests interface. So anything that uses v4l2-requests should have video acceleration working. That should be all gstreamer based apps at the very least. Various codecs were gradually stabilized and moved to public API over the last few years.

There's no support in ffmpeg for v4l2-requests API, and nobody forward ported old Bootlin vaapi wrapper driver around v4l2-requests API to the stabilized public version of the API, yet. So app relying on these programs/interfaces don't get the acceleration, atm.
Speculation? It is well-known that their drivers contain extensive telemetry functions. This removes any shadow of a doubt that they know what the cards they sold are being used for.
Yeah, I just replaced mine a couple weeks ago. It wasn't hard, but it wasn't easy either.
Fun fact: “proper” polynomials have only non-negative integer exponents but you can construct other non-linear polynomial-like equations with negative and even rational exponents. They work the same with the number of real roots related to the number of coefficient sign changes.

Just don’t expect any general solutions, you have to solve them numerically if they don’t simplify to a common type.
