They'd follow the doctors around and take notes, so the doctor could focus on the parts of their job that couldn't be done by someone with a year or two of junior college training.

It gets worse if you have a stack smash, e.g:

#include <string.h>

void foo() {
int array[1];
memset(array, 0, 100); /\* Oh no, trash the stack! */
}

int main() {
foo();
}

This gets us:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
(gdb) bt
#0 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
#1 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

But with a time travel debugger (I'm using UDB because - disclaimer - it's what I work on. `rr` would work just as well):

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

#1 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

^ Because we returned to NULL we have segfaulted but the stack is also trashed due to the memset. We don't know how we got here.

I propose a ban on all non-productive trips by car. Only good people should be allowed to emit carbon unless for productive reasons that pass the carbon threshhold for the amount of carbon the trips will emit.

Good people as defined by a social credit system.

I don't like jQuery -- I mean I use it but it doesn't occupy enough brain space to even have a strong opinion on it either way. If I took jQuery out then I'd have to care more because would need to re-implement all the pieces of jQuery that my projects already use. Is that going to be 280k worth? No. Is going to be a couple of one-liners? No, because jQuery hides a lot of complexity under it's relatively simple API that take a lot of JavaScript to reproduce.

It's not crazy that to accomplish what jQuery accomplishes without jQuery you're going to need almost the same amount of code as jQuery. It's not re-implementing the DOM -- it's a pretty thin but broad wrapper. If you don't need something, remove it.

The difference is that USDC is run by a US-based public corporation and its managers are US citizens that live in the US. If USDC is a fraud (or even just materially misrepresented), they go to jail.

Is that a guarantee? No, but I don't understand why anyone would use USDT instead of USDC.

My comment wasn't really one of correct or incorrect.

It was meant to highlight russellbeattie's propositional logic ("if it kills someone" then "it's still your fault"). I agree with you that it's "not terribly dangerous"[1]. Your comment seemed to have omitted the premise, so I wanted highlight how it was a non-empty set. [2]

[1] It's also not terribly dangerous to drive without a seat belt on either. I don't advise people do so.

[2] "Firing a bullet into the air" does not mean it must have time to slow to terminal velocity, nor is a bullet hitting a body the only way to kill. (See "Twenty-three people were electrocuted after celebratory gunfire brought down a power cable".)
I was also in a govt / enterprise EHR type project. Similar story, but you had a double layer of VPN that only worked with outdate explorer / java etc (AT TIME OF DEPLOYMENT - the software was "new" to the govt agency and the poor health staff).

To skip all the sillyness - you basically had to password share, keep systems logged in etc etc to get anything done. Yes, security is important, but if it's 30 minutes to do anything, and then they did something like 30 day double password resets (on both layers of VPN) it's just chaos. Every password had to be written down, because when a patient showed up an clinician couldn't login it was a disaster. The millions they spent without every talking to anyone using this crap was mind blowing. We had in the end separate computers with locked down ancient IE and java to do some stuff on this system (auto or user updates to Java - which would pop up scary warnings given how old things were - would blow the fragile system up).

Then the one person who could create new accounts through a ridiculous process would go on some kind of 2 month union break at a time, and....

I know you're being facetious, but yes. Public transport is cheaper per person per kilometer than cars. Gasoline and motor vehicle taxes are very low in comparison to the cost of road maintenance and environmental and societal effects of individual transport, so you're indeed profiting off of tax money.

It's still not clear to me whether you want the files inside the database or just the metadata. The stat part suggests the latter?

I guess I can see that, but now you have cache invalidation (someone else linked to Spotlight, which does this as a background process). SQLite files can be larger than any physical medium you can purchase so why not go the distance?
The basic idea is to have a q,k,v cache of all the previously seen tokens that gets updated over time. The transformer can decide to do self-attention (and ignore the cache) or focus on elements from the cache (enabling it to attend to previously seen tokens). They mainly apply this to large documents, i'd be very curious to see a followup on time-dependent tasks like videos

That's debatable, would an "ethics" section on the original deepfake paper have changed anything?

ML research isn't as inaccessible as genetics research, if there's something idiotic that people can do with DL, they will eventually do it. Acting as if having people add a paragraph to their paper where they "reflect" on the consequences will change anything is only showing how disconnected you are with reality.

Research is research, there shouldn't be any "forbidden knowledge", we have laws for a reason.

One small piece of anecdata which kind of supports the theme of cohesiveness being important.

I've been a part of a relatively small Stackexchange site (security.stackexchange.com) for 11.5 years and over that time I've made friends with other Sec.SE participants which have lasted to this day. Most of the early core users aren't that active on the site any more, but quite a few of us still hang out on-line and meet up when the opportunity presents.
I would suggest having the site open with one of the examples, rather than the blank canvas.

Regardless, it's very cool!

The author should maybe consider that there are some possible downsides to a totally free market in food and drug products, and in particular look at the historical events which led to the creation and empowering of the FDA. e.g. "The Sulfanilamide Disaster" [0], which killed 100 people because a company used antifreeze to create a liquid form of their drug (and it would have killed more if not for FDA efforts to track down shipments and recover the drug).

The shortage is certainly a terrible thing. It also would be a terrible thing if contaminated formula killed a bunch of babies. It may be that we have not struck the right policy balance between a free market and regulatory controls, but this screed is far from a nuanced reconsideration of the role of the FDA.

This is excellent news, and I love the fine structure that has teeth in regard to being based on global revenue. It seems like there's no way to weasel out of it.

These rules are so important because Apple and Google are firmly a duopoly in the smartphone space. If the 10 richest people in the world got together and formed a company to start a competing mobile platform, they would likely fail – and even if they didn't, they'd probably never commit that amount of liquid capital making that attempt in the first place.

Can an operating system be analogous to electric, water, and sewer service? At this point, I think the answer is a resounding "yes." These operating systems are so vital to modern life that they ARE utilities.

"Jesus, Seth. Listen, if you really wanna do this with your life you have to believe you're necessary and you are. People wanna live like this in their cars and big fuckin' houses they can't even pay for, then you're necessary. The only reason that they all get to continue living like kings is cause we got our fingers on the scales in their favor. I take my hand off and then the whole world gets really fuckin' fair really fuckin' quickly and nobody actually wants that. They say they do but they don't. They want what we have to give them but they also wanna, you know, play innocent and pretend they have no idea where it came from."

As a non sarcastic response I would note that financial intermediation exists for the purposes of transforming types and durations of risks between people/firms trying to offload from / take on that risk.

This is how things like 30 year fixed rate mortgages, low fee index ETFs, target date retirement funds, fixed price home heating oil contracts, every form of insurance, etc can exist in the consumer space.

In the B2B space you have all the companies with needs to lock in prices for future inputs in order to control costs & plan their own output pricing, etc.

All of this has greatly reduced the boom-bust cycle of the pre-Fed economy. As bad as 2000 or 2008 may have felt, they were nothing like the great depression of numerous 19th century recessions & depressions.

Will use this comment to say: Anyone suffering from Restless Leg Syndrome, some people report that iron supplement helps, some people report that flush niacin (pure vitamin B3 in primal form; NOT inositol hexanicotinate, NOT nicotinamide, NOT slow release) help.

Be careful with advice on the internet (for all you know, I'm a dog). Iron overload is harmful. Niacin may cause a "flush" which is transient, but feels like your skin is sunburned for 20-30 minutes. Do your own research about amounts etc. Consult a medical professional if you don't feel qualified to do your own research. This is not medical advice, just some random info. (Though, it helped me a lot)
Ask HN: What to do about ‘Good at programming Bad at Leetcode’
Over the past few years I've met people who are really good programmers when it comes to putting together a full back end system , creating a very nice front end or creating any kind of app for that matter.

Many of these people are fresh out of college and the ‘industry’ puts them through leetcode/hackerrank style rounds that are needlessly hard. I’ve seen the kind of questions these rounds have and quite frankly, if I graduated this year, there’s no way I’m going to get a job.

Ever since 'Cracking the coding interview' was released, every company's interview process has become like Google's and Google didn't have a particularly great interview process to start with.[0][1]

Now, there are several GitHub repositories that prescribe 3-4 month grinds on leetcode questions to "crack" the interview. And people do go through this grind.

The people who do manage to crack these rounds are not necessarily good at programming either because the time they spent doing competitive programming stuff should have been spent learning to build actual things.

The no-whiteboard companies are very few, hardly ever seem to have openings and not hiring junior engineers.

What would be your advice be to fresh college graduates, or anybody for that matter, who are good at programming but not at leetcode? Surely there must be a way to demonstrate their understanding of algorithms without having to spend 3-4 months memorising riddles

Having used Rails mostly, Phoenix for a couple of projects, and Django now at my current startup.

I would absolutely not choose Django. I would recommend Rails, but I would choose Phoenix.

People choose Django because they only know Python, or they think they are an AI company (usually they are not), or they think the built-in admin/crud pages will save them a lot of time. On the last point, I think they are not at all worth the tradeoffs. The bad reputation that PHP devs used to have applies to Django development in my opinion. It is so common to see 100+ line methods, super tight coupling with the framework, and other amateur implementation practices which add technical debt with every pull request.

Phoenix is great, Elixir is great (especially for the functional behaviors you'll use), and the Erlang OTP foundation is incredible if you ever want to break things down and scale. But you'll have a harder time finding experienced devs at some point unless you're willing to train them or give them time to learn.

Rails is still very good, and Ruby is an incredibly consistent, well-designed language. There are lots of people who know Ruby and Rails, so when you do need to hire or contract some help, you'll find it pretty easily.

I would personally go with Phoenix and Elixir because I think it's an evolutionary step forward, and because it's fun. It's also fun to see views render lightning fast compared to Rails (where unfortunately you have to learn to NOT break things up into many logical partials because each partial adds render time overhead). Phoenix views are compiled, so they can be designed better and still be performant.
Sir, you are super cool.

Do you mean that you are fetching data from an internal API and sending server-rendered HTML response to the browser? I always naively thought GitHub worked this way. Build a GraphQL/REST API that exposes all of your system's internals, query/mutate through it and send an HTML response in the "frontend" (Ruby on Rails etc.). Frontend, but in terms of an application server that in turn accesses everything through an internal API.
