The relations between data are different, and that relation can be defined in very different ways, with exceptions and so on. Could be weighted relations, and tweaking those relations could kill the search quality (ie. Google's ads pollution). There is not writen-on-rock way to do it right. BD's relations are much simpler and well defined.

I'm developing a next-generation search engine and the article is actually pretty light on topics, it's like search engine research got frozen around 2010. Google can't take user feedback for the recommendation without getting SEO-gamed way further, so we need a new kind of search to make it irrelevant.

Does the meeting move a revenue generating project forward or solve a customer issue? If not then it is 100% cost. BS feel good ideas like “coordination”, “alignment”, “transparency” and pretending to include people in the decision process has zero value unless it results in progress on revenue generating projects. The more people you include in a decision the slower you make progress. The sooner you make progress the sooner you get feedback and learn how to improve. The least productive and unsuccessful companies I have worked for spend most of their time on exactly the BS ideas you mentioned. The most successful companies I have ever worked for spent zero time on “coordination”, “alignment” etc. They were too busy killing the competition in the market place.

There have been steady improvements but it is still very early on in the development of the technology. Michael Abrash gave a talk at OC6[0] that centered around the idea that we are currently somewhere around the 1980s level when compared to the development of the PC. This is very much the beginning of the next major platform, comparatively few people have these systems and fewer still use them for more than just fun or basic utility. There is a fledgling social scene but it is still very underground to the point where most people have never heard of it. I'll fully admit there's a long way to go before it really breaks out but it's not going away. I'm diving into it now because it feels like this is the next wave and I'd rather ride it than just wait for it to wash over me.

My gym had an online month-long "ab challenge" at the beginning of the Covid lockdowns. One of the 3 progressive exercises was increasing reps of sit ups. It was "too easy" on the first few days. Then it was more and more sweaty and painful as the days went on.

> So I assume it never disconnects and builds a giant database of everything you've ever cooked.

Possibly - and in today's world I'd even go with "probably." The "scan a UPC and get the 'how to cook'" needs some external access. I haven't decoded the QR code to determine if the recipe instructions is encoded in there, or if that's a lookup - I suspect its encoded rather than a lookup (and the QR code based meals appear to work without wifi).

The database, however, would only be useful/of the UPCs and raw ingredient based that you scan rather than the meal plan since with a meal subscription service, they've already got that data. And as a regular toaster oven, doing "bake 375°" isn't leaking any data about what you are eating.
The crazy thing is that right up until March 2020 the ARK fund had good returns but had only a fraction of the AUM of where it is now(or where it was at the peak in 2021). The fund had an incredible run in 2020 due to the Fed stimulus, but then again, anyone who was in the market was making a killing. The 2020 performance attracted more investors, but by that point the magic was gone.

If you were unlucky enough to hop on the bandwagon near the end of 2020 and you're still holding on now, that is really unfortunate.

A similar thing happened with Bear Stearns. It beat the market consistently every month... until it didn't. IIRC it blew up very very quickly.

This is the same issue with these ridiculously high "guaranteed" returns on DeFi lending.

Any significantly above market returns of any kind are either a scam or have risks that are either not understood or not disclosed.

I'm honestly surprised the hedge fund industry has survived so long and grown so large. In some cases you get to invest in a market you otherwise couldn't access but it seems like long-term returns underperform passive investments in most cases.

So, if infant formula is unavailable the course of action you recommend is simply letting the child go and making another one, because it won't be possible to guarantee that any alternative food source is 100% perfect?

That's the weird thing about these interactions. If someone's asking for an alternative to infant formula - because they can't get any - the situation is already unsafe. Starvation has a 100% fatality rate.

Infant formula isn't part of the scenario being discussed. Alternatives are to be compared against starvation, as that is part of the scenario being discussed. Do alternatives have a 100% fatality rate? No. So why all the weird 'there's just no viable alternative' comments?

The only thing interesting in this is the batting analysis. There is obviously an equal amount that can be done with bowling as well. I am sure someone is doing it, but there is no mention of it in the article. The other product where they are trying to sell stuff in real time has been tried many times and it never works.

In some ways this is a disappointing article for me. NBA tracks every single player and every single shot on the court for the duration of the match. A lot of interesting data can be obtained and used with this. There is a lot of tech and data analysis in baseball and NFL too. I was hoping something similar about cricket will talked about in the article but kind of falls flat for me. May be all the analysis in cricket is done by the "eye test", as they say in basketball commentary, still.

My charitable read of the comment here might be: the only culturally acknowledged web presence today is that of the Platform -- and when the platforms are so monopoly-adjacent, the skills necessary to build a planet scale platform really are pretty cutting-edge and rarefied [1]. But there's nothing about making a website of your own that requires that -- so ordinary people ought to feel like they can attempt it on their own without a Platform in control.

I think the main class of problems it solves is it lets multiple applications, which may be developed by completely different entities at different times, share data with very strong guarantees.

So in the context of the Web Revivalist movement, how do you build stateful applications? It's great when individuals host their own DIY servers, but that doesn't really give you much stability. And in aggregate, it's even more difficult to build rich, stateful ecosystems of applications. How do you handle servers going down and APIs changing? Link rot for stateless websites is a hard enough as it is.

Sure! Elixir's been great. Phoenix is a joy to work with, and many of the concurrency primitives built into OTP make it the perfect foundation for a product like this. And rustler makes it super easy to add low-level / native code.

I will say the big downside to using Elixir is that distributing releases is a bit cumbersome. `mix release` expects that you're building on the same OS / version as you'll be running on, though we're looking into using something like burrito [1] to help alleviate this.

I have no problem with voluntary on-call duty that is both paid handsomely with overtime rates, even for salaried employees, along with bonuses that make sacrificing free time worth it. That's how on-call duty works in many European countries, by law, and in unionized industries and companies here in the US.

The company didn't push for on-call duty at all for our EU developers, because that would cost the company more money for higher rates and bonuses. Instead, on-call duty was the responsibility of US and Canadian workers, because the company didn't have to pay them for the extra burden and loss of free time. EU developers worked on the same products, and could have done on-call duty with us, but that was never on the table for reasons that had nothing to do with developers being familiar with the projects they're supporting. It was all about reducing costs and getting free work out of developers dressed up as "best practices" from Google.

Shameless self-promotion, but I used a Stream Deck to make "Princess Buttons" for my kids: https://dantonio.info/projects/the-buttons/

Allows me to not be the DJ/arbiter of music for my toddlers, yet still provides them with control over the music (Sonos) and helps them learn to negotiate & take turns between themselves. The Stream Deck has, thus far, held up to quite a lot of abuse. I've added some lighting control and they have play/pause/next control, too -- works great. The USB 'server' software is fantastic, too. =D
The idea is right, but some details are wrong. You need a separate Z for each Y. But even if that's done, it is indeed faster.
The main claim that the Schroedinger equation isn't consistent with chaotic behaviour of observables because it is linear in psi seems poorly thought out.

As one commenter on youtube pointed out, the Schroedinger equation is linear in psi, but the Liouville equation from statistical physics is also linear in rho and nobody suggests this somehow makes it inconsistent with classical systems exhibiting chaos.

The mistake is that mathematical linearity is in equation for psi/rho, and this is then incorrectly changed into assuming linearity of equations for observables. The observed chaos is not in psi/rho, but in observables, say, positions and momenta.

The actual problem here is the age-old measurement problem, i.e. the psi function does not tell us result of experiment, only probabilities of possible results, so psi function can't be complete description of state of things in reality.

> looking at a PR by a dev who has been around for a long time

This is precisely the case where I think you need code review the most, because in my experience, time makes people complacent.

Code review is peer review, the key agent of the scientific method. I just can’t abide a process that doesn’t include peer review.

> Donald Rumsfeld's unknown-unknowns.

are an excellent reason to have others question your code. Code review is a culture issue. If you have people who are so unfamiliar with code as to not be able to review it, then that’s a clear knowledge silo that seems perfectly addressable by _code review_.

It’s not about the code, it’s about the knowledge transfer and peer enforcement.

That feels a little disingenuous. People would have happily ignored the Touch Bar if it didn't remove the physical F row and escape key.

Apple turned it into a contest between an F row with physical keys, key travel, and feel and a touch-screen based key pad that required you to look away from the primary output device to even use. Then had it default to the positions of the dynamic buttons moving around as you switch applications (which is a UX fail).

Essentially Apple's own design trade-offs killed Touch Bar. There was nothing reflexive about it, people hated losing something they were actively using and getting something worse in exchange.

Part of it is the boomers retiring, but the population pyramid is is fairly stable. [1]

The bigger issue is fewer young people are working every year. [2]

16 to 19: -24% in the last 20 years

20 to 24: -11% in the last 20 years.

25 to 34: -3% in the last 20 years.

Meanwhile, older people are working more than ever. This exaserbates issues of inequality. Essentially the young and poor are working less and the old and established are working more than ever. Without judgment on their reasons for working or not, it seems like rate of younger generations participating in the workforce is falling much faster than the size of the size of the younger generation is shrinking.

I think we’re dealing with a few separate concerns here:
1) do the students who cheated get a chance to resolve their behavior in the course - that is, can they still pass this class?

2) What does the university do to these students as a response? This is an administrative action rather than a course-level action, and why the author had to fill out forms.

3) A separate administrative response is given for threatening behavior. The consequences for this are different than for cheating. There are potential legal ramifications associated with this.

I think in this case the author was saying he gave this student a second chance (the second syllabus) while also submitting to the other two authorities in the matter.
