> Considering evolution optimized for biological fitness and not intelligence, it would be incredibly surprising if it wasn't possible to do better, especially using a vastly different architecture.

The way I see it is that humans are the stupidest you can be and still create a society. Like a nuclear reaction, you need average human to add a tiny bit of structure on average and it works, any less than that and society is impossible, any more than that and society forms extremely quickly, so fast that evolution has no time to work.

I can't speak for all research datasets but I can speak for sequencing based datasets such as whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing etc. These projects can cost hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. Academic and industrial research projects tend to do everything they can to avoid sharing this data for as long as possible.

The academic researchers that generate these datasets and their funding sources such as granting agencies and donors want to see the money being used to generate something important. In this case it certainly in the researchers interest to avoid sharing the data for as long as possible to get as many publications as possible. This makes it easier to get more funding.

There is a push by journals now for researchers to include the data in publicly accessible repositories such as the NCBI SRA or European Genome-phenome Archive. These sites archive the data and make it available for researchers. However, in most cases they require a comprehensive data sharing agreement between your institution and theirs. Most of these agreements have extremely demanding requirements that make it very difficult if not impossible for a requesting institutes legal team to agree to. For example, the institute that owns the data may make demands such as "the right to approve any publications or research work created with this data", which entails sending any publication to them prior to submission and giving them veto power. I understand the reasoning for the agreements their intent was to protect private information from being shared publicly while allowing researchers to use the data. But I think the system is being abused now.

On the other hand, it can be very difficult to get past institutes to make data public. For example, sequencing data contains personally identifiable information and getting approval to share the raw data can be difficult. For prospective studies, Human patients need to consent to their data being shared and may not consent to it being shared publicly.

I can't comment on industry as much. However, I have colleagues who work at companies and publish numerous papers on the same proprietary datasets but refuse to share it with anyone. This is particularly challenging in fields such as cancer research where they may publish some fancy/superior new model for disease risk stratification on their own data but without sharing it's impossible for researchers to independently validate it.

>They do this because they fear the alternative

they do it because they can. Engineers have the tendency to be overly individualistic and ignore collective bargaining which is the primary means by which people can gain better working conditions. As long as people are willing to put in those 60 hours to climb up the next career rank ahead of their peers it's gonna be that way.
+1 to the second suggestion. It's easier to replace a habit with a different habit than to eliminate it completely. Find something online that you find constructive or educational, and do that instead. For me it's been learning languages with Duolingo and brushing up on various subjects in Khan Academy. A nice advantage of these is that they are fairly gamified, so they tend to be sticky. With Anki or other similar systems there's plenty of content to fill your time with instead of mindless scrolling.

Fully agreed everywhere, thanks. There used to be a little more bragging about the enhancements up front in x86 land, but yes, a lot of it comes down to reverse engineering.

The one place I'd redouble my scorn is that so many modern devices don't even list their chip, not even it's generation. Google in particular has been a major force in reducing the "tech specs" down to "Intel i5" or some-such preposterously useless "description". Is this a 10W part? A 35W part? What generation? How many cores?

But absolutely. A huge amount of these details have, for a long time, been carefully tested for &- I lack a better term- reverse-engineered, from shipped devices. But historically we'd at least know, before purchasing, what core it was we were purchasing.

By that logic, you shouldnt hire women, since they may get pregnant and take extensive leave on your company’s dime. Or men, whose partner could get pregnant (or adopt).

Go will serialize keys to maps in random order, meaning that unless you take special and extraordinary precautions while serializing your json structs, you will get keys that will not be where you expect them to be.
Thanks for the response!

1. Makes sense, looking forward to progress there.

2. Excellent. I’d consider one of the Wireguard VPN servers be prioritized as well.

3. I wouldn’t use mDNS for it, I would either require and integrate the PiHole configuration or come with a DNS server as well (leaning towards PiHole here). I’d suggest long-term planning on integrating DNS/DDNS and LetsEncrypt. I use a combo of a DDNS container for CloudFlare and a wildcard DNS generated by nginx proxy manager.

4. I’d go for one “simple” CMS, like Ghost, and one fully featured, like WordPress.

5. Will check it out.

6. Appreciate it being an option, I’ve signed up for the mailing list to get a notification when it is available so I can make another run at it.

Great work and I appreciate the engagement.
Pretty much every comment on this thread comparing Ferraris to Lamborghinis is overgeneralized and outdated.

It really just depends on the era and the specific models you're comparing.

Also the founders' original philosophies have long been diluted and that's not necessarily a bad thing for customers.
jsonnet is my go-to language for anything related to configuration, after having tried json, yaml, TS, edn, and tasting dhall and toml. It addresses all problems in the article and more.

the composition model strikes a good balance between data extensibility / language expressiveness / ease of use.

the generated json leads to easy-to-understand and portable data, and if you write jsonschemas from jsonnet, tools like json-schema-to-typescript [1] make it easy to import a consistent interface, and almost every language has a reasonably up-to-date validation library.

As a layperson in AI, that makes total sense.

Programs are things humans invented and can reason about. Even complex ML agents ultimately derive from concepts humans came up with. So it stands to reason we can make them do things that are complicated but understood.

Whereas we really only barely understand sensorimotor skills, so trying to invent a machine to do that is doubly difficult.

Is this actually a problem? The length of sound is most likely pretty short as it's sending a short spurt of data (like a link). The speaker on the phone is also not very powerful so this would be akin to having someone playing music on their phone (for a very short period of time).
"Office hours."

For those discussing DND elsewhere in this thread, the notion of being generally reachable at specific times exists.
It's amazing how this story has fed into the myth making and brand for both companies. It's one of those "there are no losers here" anecdotes which can be used by both companies to attract customers (Lamborghini captured imaginations with their designs and Ferrari kept winning races). A marketer's dream scenario, so much so, it makes me question how much of this story is really true and how much this innocuous relationship between these two men really played at building their respective companies.

In any case, amazing that in 2022 there are still new articles being written about these events and still interest in hearing it. Story telling is essential in building a brand that captures public interest - those who aim to mass market their product, take notes.

>DVI (which was HDMI but without audio) was invented for CRTs.

nah, DVI came out of Silicon Image 1995 work on PanelLink (TMDS), intended application right in the name :)

DVI is pretty lame tho, its just digitized VGA with all the stupid quirks (realtime speed, blanking) useless in the age of LCDs. Afaik even the newest DisplayPort still retains all the lameness despite being packetized, still sends VGA formatted video data with embedded clock, syncs, porches etc divided into neat little packets instead of transmitting only the picture. MIPI DSI Burst mode is close to ideal, dump raw screen worth of video data at max speed and turn off the link until another screen is ready.

Most likely it's selective reporting, but I wouldn't dismiss the more grim explanation For example Axios (which should be called Anxios) devoted 4 posts out of 20 on its front page to gun control. On other days it looks similar. If forgot to report that today 100 people died in car accidents, 5000 died from cancer and heart issues, a few multiples of that went bankrupt from "treatment" that disn't cure their cancer, but made disabled and miserable. Yet they devote 20% of their attention to a microscopic issue that coincidentally builds political capital for one party.
> Is your pipeline fed from sources that are homogeneous themselves? If so, look for sources that aren't.

I think this is where some people get hung up. Suppose that before a company implements this change, it gets some set of applicants X, and after it implements this change, it gets some set of applicants Y. It's entirely possible that applicants in set Y are as good or even better for the company than applicants in set X, no doubt. But in instances where they're not, then isn't it the case that implementing this change is unfair to the best applicants?
> In The Expanse, this is exactly how ships are set up. The "floor" is towards the engine

This is pretty common in written science fiction but the fact that it is uncommon in movie/tv sci-fi is pretty damning really.

If you can't get basic physics right you have no business making science fiction. /rant

I think many engineers would gladly say that Cambodians deserve to, and should be paid a lot more.

Your argument is also a comparison between two different economies.

The comparison here is between two groups of people living in the same country, even working for the same company. I did the math at a previous job - the CEO would make in 20 minutes what I made in a year. Would that CEO say they I should get paid more?

Also, many CEOs in the US might make what they do precisely because the laborers in Southeast Asia make such low wages.

The main question you need to ask yourself is "Why do I keep coming back to social media?" Once you've answered that, then maybe you can carve a route away from it.

As someone mentioned in the comments here, have a replacement. It doesn't need to be online, either. Find something else to do at those times when you feel the need to continuously scroll. You don't have to do something productive. Just something, anything that keeps you away from those sites.

Do you have a reference for lower NOx emissions from propane? My understanding is that most NOx is a product of combustion in air (although it can come from impurities in the fuel).

As for SOx, natural gas can contain H2S which produces these, is it normally significantly less for propane?
in my experience, for things like static configs, jsonnet has been superior to TS for constraints, if you pair the configs with a json schema (also generated from jsonnet, of course).

TS's types are easier to use at write-time, but json schema includes a lot of batteries that save a lot of time when you need them, but become annoying in TS, like patternProperties in dictionaries, length constraints in keys. Of course, there are situations like key1 XOR key2 where you will need custom logic one way or another, but given json schema's evolution over the years, I think it's pretty solid. An added benefit is that if you stay in json schemas, you're almost guaranteed a validator exists in $other_language, it _almost_ feels like a first-class construct everywhere.

Oh sorry to clarify. The smartphone is not necessary to pay with this. In the field it is used just like cash (older concept used at ethDenver before covid: https://twitter.com/alexmasmej/status/1228771055524704256?s=...)

The smartphone lets one validate the funds are stored on the note.

This dynamic exists with cash too. In high trust/low value transactions we skip validation. In low trust/high value scenarios we don’t.

Technically I can make the case one needs a highlighter to spend or receive American dollars to validate the note is authentic by checking the acid content of the linen substrate. In practice I don’t when conducting peer to peer payments but would when conducting C2B payments of a certain nature.

Validation is an optional step which correlates with the trust environment and varies greatly by market. Given the nature of cryptocurrencies it’s imagined there would be stronger correlation with validation initially; then become lax as notes were commonly circulated or going through certain chokepoints like ATMs; tighten in regions were counterfeit notes were introduced. But strictly speaking? These style of notes have been deployed in marketplaces where a smartphone check wasn’t necessary or appropriate.
