when I was a phd student at Columbia, we had a student in our lab who was a full time employee at TJ Watson and his work at Watson was part and parcel of his phd. Basically supervised by both his IBM manager and my advisor.

When I was looking at programs, as I already had been working at a military lab since I was in HS, I asked every advisor I interviewed with if research work I was doing at the lab could be the basis of the phd if I wanted (i.e. to do the same thing as the labmate mentioned) and almost everyone I spoke to had zero issues with it, with the proviso that the work was appropriate for a phd.

At the end of the day, I did it all on campus (with many summers spent at labs or industry), but a good chunk of the work I did could easily have been done with proper guidance in an industry setting as well (though that's more in retrospect, I wouldn't have known how to sell the ideas to industry back then).

It's true. I made an account last year and made a video just to try it out—a video of me playing guitar as my toddler climbing all over me making it very difficult to play. It was pretty cute, I posted it.

105,000+ views and 111 comments later, I had over 400 new followers. I made a few more videos, none of which hit quite as big, but it certainly psychologically incentivized me to want to invest more time and effort into being a 'creator'.

Sure. Reverse engineering the fall of man basically. But again to the question of why. Why be so nihilistic about life and the world that you want to do it over? Why believe that such a thing is achievable through some technological mechanism?

Well, maybe because you've seen some other technological mechanism facilitate something you thought was unachievable, like adherence to severe and rigid religious regimen facilitating group perpetuation in many disparate circumstances, and so you're just superimposing that experience onto a different circumstance and pursuing the belief of a similar outcome irrationally, which is where the shirking of feedback you mention comes in.

Meanwhile, Google has announced AI with a generalized learning agent, is looking to democratize access to it slowly, and has an AI ethicist who isn't sure if the system is "alive."

I, personally, would be willing to devote much of my life to interacting with the system to at least work out biases from the system, and also believe in 24/7 surveillance of me as a safety precaution against what interacting closely with such a machine may lead to.
At this point, what's really needed is an additional layer of abstraction. The site needs to run in a virtual computer within the browser, identical to all others, and every interaction where any information from the user is needed for the site needs to go through a filter that will sufficiently randomize and sanitize identifying inputs to make it much much harder to fingerprint. That will probably break some content like games and whatnot, but the reality is, as much as everyone loves their web-apps, it really is a tiny fraction of web-browsing.

Running Julia bare-metal on an Arduino
Yes, having a version number centralised in source code is exactly the thing Git helped us many times to avoid.

Also ties in with the author's recommendation to begin tags with "v". My experience is that excluding it is better. Then a simple "git describe" readily gives the version number in scripts with no sed or reprocessing.

I've seen many conventions with Git. It's interesting to hear some rationale, but a stretch to describe these suggestions as the "proper" way.
> most of the homeless prefer to have access to drugs over shelter.

Watch these videos.

As someone who has known many homeless people, the majority neither want to use drugs nor be homeless. I do not know many people who choose to be addicts. And to lay all this addiction on the addicts and not the pharmaceutical companies is brave of you. I also meet so many women whose decent into homelessness was caused by sexual abuse.

And go to a shelter for a night and tell me if you would choose that over a bottle of vodka...

> Flix – Safe, Reliable, Concise, and Functional-First Programming Language

"Ensure that you have at least Java 11 installed. "

How about a compiler or an interpreter ?

"Download the latest version of the Flix compiler (flix.jar) at https://github.com/flix/flix/releases/latest.

Create an empty folder (e.g. mkdir flixproject) and place the downloaded Flix JAR (flix.jar) into that folder.

Enter the created directory (e.g. cd flixproject) and run java -jar flix.jar init to create an empty Flix project.

Run java -jar flix.jar run to compile and run the project.

Flix will compile the project and execute the main function (located in src/Main.flix).

There’s 7,000 Klarna employees currently wondering if they’re losing their jobs! If they had simply informed everyone immediately, that would be just 10% of the people feeling those feelings.

Setting aside employees for a moment, from a company perspective, the harm you’re doing to your organisation by giving everyone a week to worry about being let go is ridiculous, it’s self immolation. Every single klarna employee is, in this moment, thinking about getting a new job.

Yeah, that's how I understood it.

I just meant that you could also deliberately have rules (as opposed to come into office after them) and you do intend that people follow them, create new ones, update them, etc., but they're just not enforced, and everyone knows that.

As in just codifying some social expectations that would probably exist in roughly the same form anyway.
Indeed it cannot be actualized, as it connects to the real world.

This is why things like "land registry on the blockchain" will never happen. When a court decides that a sale of a house was unlawful, then the blockchain is wrong and irrelevant.

Code isn't law. Law is system that ultimately sends people to your house and puts you in a locked house that you're not allowed to leave, and lets other people live in "your" house now.

You might not have a choice!

If enough people in front of you have stopped under the overpass, so will you. Sometimes visibility is so reduced that being in an underpass is a relief.

I once emerged from an underpass after a particularly severe storm (possibly tornado) only to find an 18-wheeler stopped, facing me, a short distance from the over pass. He had obviously been blown across the grass median from the opposite traffic lane. The rain was so intense that I didn't perceive the truck until I was only a few car-lengths away.

> What non standard API only Chrome implements and evil web developers want to use?

Two things:

1. Feel free to look at the wide litany of garbage security and privacy holes Google has added to Chrome that are only supported by Chrome forks, which Mozilla and Safari have both publicly declared they will not support.

https://mozilla.github.io/standards-positions/

Mozilla has defined 24 items as "harmful", and that's a good start at bad ideas Google has shoehorned into calling "the web". Who wrote... basically every single harmful spec? Oh, the adtech company that is allowed to also make a web browser.

2. You're also just not understanding the problem. It doesn't actually matter what web developers want to use and don't want to use. Web developers are, and I'm sorry to insult a bunch of HN users here, really lazy. If they can demand people switch to Chrome, they will. In fact, they often do even when the website works fine everywhere else.

Next time you hit a Chrome-only user-agent check in Firefox, tell your browser to lie about the user agent and you'll probably discover the site works fine. I constantly see companies tell us their products "aren't supported" unless you use Chrome, even if they work fine in Firefox, and the issues we call about aren't caused by the browser, and can be duplicated in Chrome.

Right now, the only reason far more web developers aren't pasting Chromium checks into every single page, is they have to support Safari anyways, because they can't lose the iOS market. But as soon as it's possible for web devs to force users to install Chrome to continue on iOS, they will. And at that point, Google really doesn't need to pretend it cares about web standards anymore anyways, because alternative engines will already be dead.

I didn't say "only ever doing one thing and doing it well is good for a person". Learning multiple games is also good; learning many things is also good, my (trite) point is that IMO there is a specific virtue in the pursuit of excellence: the stripping away of imperfections, the alterations to one's temperament required to reach excellence and then to demonstrate it, the self-knowledge of what it takes and that one has it and could demonstrate it again, pure self-esteem, etc.

This blog post touches on a topic with far-reaching consequences that I think a lot of people are missing because they are focusing only on the question of abortion, and that is PRIVACY. In a nutshell, Roe makes abortion legal by guaranteeing the privacy of a woman to make that decision with her doctor. If Roe is overturned then it's this assumption of privacy which will have been vacated... and once it is I suspect there will be policy and legislation to exploit the court's striking down of privacy in a way that will be more Orwellian than we can currently imagine.
In fairness, GP may also be envisaging a public (or intranet) 'mailing list archive' which is 'open' in the former sense.
Agreed. It takes effort to establish a culture where people work openly through Slack. The path of least resistance is to message someone privately with a question. Two obvious reasons:

- It reduces embarrassment from looking ignorant, uninformed or in a negative light to your peers. "How could you not have known that?!". This is worse when the channel has anyone in the power hierarchy that's above you.

- It gets a more immediate response. Ask publicly and the chance someone answers is lower than asking directly to a subject matter expert.

So at a systemic level, because we're humans, Slack defaults to being pools of private knowledge or private conversations. There's nothing in the tool itself that encourages open communication. It takes leadership and effort to establish a culture where people feel safe asking things in the open, and it's a default.
Branches are mutable, tags aren’t. You can add a commit to `v4.11-rc7-87` anytime. Now your branch has grown past the merge commit. Confusion ensues.

Compared to a tag, you’d have to deliberately go out of your way to move a tag (`git tag -f`). Generally, you should be able to trust your team members not to move a tag.
Indeed. Here's one that has been translated to English:

In Germany and I assume similarly in Sweden, there are no "at will" work areas like most of the US is. Eliminating a position is very difficult to do because of the worker protection laws that are in place.

Usually there are a few steps that have to be followed depending on the circumstances, most of which involve providing thorough justification. Yes, the government agencies do care about this.

Further, we have periods of time after a position is severed that the company must also compensate or keep the employee employed (like notice periods, only they're on a schedule based on how long you've worked) that have to be respected by both sides unless agreed upon otherwise.

I would imagine they've figured out some sort of severance package or lump some that is a function of their salary. Just speculating.
Can someone explain how you can take out a ~$150m flash loan? (Did he post $300m collateral?) Did he only need 3 ETH for that or were the ETH only used for the transaction fees?
Well yes, but as much as I am a proponent of both the right to privacy and abortion, the latter doesn't really follow from the former. Just because one has a right to privacy, it doesn't follow that everything done in private is legal. Nor is abortion necessarily private - one could declare one is going to have one, or one could be visibly pregnant and then get an abortion. It would be a bizarre law if abortion was legal only so long as you don't tell anyone about it.
You can’t discredit me based on your own hypothetical about what I might believe.

It is frustrating. I am on one side of the abortion debate, but I understand the other side, yet I have no success in even explaining it to my side.
It did, but it still doesn't have the quickly-expiring content and fast interactions like Snapchat. Google+ was basically a Facebook clone but with more complicated sharing settings.

If anything, Google+ seemed to encourage people posting everything publicly. I didn't use it much, but I recall being able to click around into people's profiles and see a bunch of public posts, more than you'd expect clicking into a random profile on Facebook. I'm sure this was in part due to the fact that once they got people to merge their YouTube channel with their Google account, all your comments would show up as public G+ posts. Nothing about Google+ seemed like a private social experience to me.
