Doubt it, assuming the law is similar to Colorado’s. A Colorado job listing for a FAANG that eventually offered approximately $270k in total compensation was roughly worded like this:

A 51% attack in those days would have made no sense. These were the days before exchanges or even an exchange rate. To trade you had to post on a forum or IRC and wait around for an answer. If the network was attacked, it would have been announced on those same forums. To pull off an attack you'd have to set up a room full of 100 computers CPU mining, hope that nobody noticed the hashrate suddenly doubling, and maybe get a few pennies worth of BTC for your efforts.

There was a much easier way to get bitcoin back then: Go to the bitcoin faucet and type in your address.

Brings back memories; the Apple Platinum look appeared around the time when 90% of the UI was black-and-white or at least boring so it really seemed to instantly transform the Mac into a professional-looking tool.

I can’t wait until they release it (oh wait, they did, decades ago; now we just have — whatever — the Mac is now).
The latency is only really an issue for twitchy shooters and action games. For a lot of titles it's low enough to be entirely usable, and is often times LESS laggy than trying to play the same game on a low-end computer.

Only high-end mobile GPUs can play recent AAA games. The average laptop still ships with integrated GPUs that don't really work very well, especially with hidpi resolutions that many now come with. Most computer users just aren't gamers, so it doesn't make sense to invest a dedicated GPU (especially when Xbox and Playstation offer similar graphics for MUCH cheaper).

But Stadia, GeForce Now, etc., let you play on any web browser with a reasonably fast connection (10 Mbps? sometimes less), doesn't heat up your laptop or drain the battery, doesn't require semi-annual hardware upgrades, etc.

M1 chips still can't really keep up with the latest games, especially at Retina resolutions. I tried many games and could not run most of them past 720p or so. Nevermind trying to play on a 4k or ultrawide screen. And on M1, you can't emulate Windows games and only precious few Mac titles were/will be ported to M1; the rest will be emulated through Rosetta. It's just a far more complex, and inferior, setup to a good streaming solution.

Comment: j is used instead of i in certain contexts -- e.g. circuits -- when it is possible to confuse it with the current (same letter used). As e.g. an Electrical and Computer Engineer you just move back and forth on sqrt(-1) notation appropriately. Not sure beyond that about the not quite the same terminology -- not my experience but who knows.

The article is kind of a "layman's article" to put it politely. I am erring towards the side of hocus pocus -- if economics were that well behaving and linear and composable as the author models, it would be a solved field years now. And control theory wouldn't exist as a field for 50 years, as it would have been solved. Do the components diverge? Where in the complex plane are they defined to begin with? Anyways.

Also: if you should learn something: Central Banks have a terrible track record, and despite what they keep saying are political. The joke is that they are the blind driver with a gas and break pedal that have a 2 years delay. So good luck to us all.

I downvoted it because you were talking to burntsushi, who has implemented an excellent general-purpose regex engine and is very thorough, thoughtful, and knowledgeable about it. When he said "Can you show me the research", that was him being exceedingly generous to your point of view. And when you said "Sorry, don't have time for that right now, but look into regular expression derivatives and similar stuff", that was you being the opposite of generous.

Good and bad right? Many people are happy to take the wealth generated from job opportunities afforded by corporate location or relocation, or by being able to move to another location due to remote work options.

San Francisco’s main problems stem from government mismanagement of the city, and also the state with respect to housing.

Notice how New York built things like Grand Central Station, and San Francisco/California can barely build a single rail line, can’t keep up with homeless populations or defend it’s citizens? What great buildings were built in San Francisco? The Golden Gate Bridge and…? And with all the wealth there? That’s mismanagement. Where is San Francisco’s vision? It’s audacity? It’s splendor? The roads should have been paved with gold with all of the wealth that it has and continues to generate. I don’t see it anywhere.

Sentience as in "the capacity to experience feelings and sensations": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentience. I don't want to be too philosophical, just consider that both chickens and cats will complain if you poke them with a stick. I'm allowing for something like cricket powder.

I think we agree about pets. Many people treat pets like people but when it comes down to it, they're not, and people won't treat them that way when it counts. Most people won't starve their family to pay for medical care for a pet. The pretense bothers me and feels hypocritical to an animal that trusts its owner so much.

I'm vegetarian in a one-animal-at-a-time sense. I sometimes think of it in terms of killing squirrels, since I see a lot of squirrels every day. For every burger you eat, imagine you have to go out and stomp a squirrel to death. I don't particularly care about squirrels but doing that would be pretty gross and traumatic, so if it's all the same I'll just eat some beans. The benefit to the environment is similarly incremental.

Raw format photography (ProRAW specifically) has been officially supported on iPhones since around iOS 14.3 (which was released in late 2020), and plenty of people have reviewed that functionality already.

As for how it would look specifically, it is difficult to give a straightforward answer, because RAW photos require a good amount of manual processing. And the final result of is going to look 100% subjective depending on the person and how they manully processed it. Just like how the same would be the case for RAW photos taken with a DSLR.

The only way this ends is by running the process in reverse where declining asset prices reduce the gains made on the debt side.

We've baked in 8% annualized real loss somewhere going forward and it will come out of somebody's pockets, but it's still being decided whether asset owners or debtors will pay.
Steel does have a major use in your skyscraper but concrete is perhaps the main player.

Conc is a wonderful and bloody complicated material and so is steel.

Steel is basically iron+(stuff) - Fe 'n' that. If you add small amounts of carbon to iron you get steel and depending on how you do it you transform iron (brittle, hard etc) to a material that is "tough". Tough generally means that it will resist stress/strain more and will fail gradually rather than catastrophically quickly. If you add some other elements, such as chromium you get stainless steel. I can't precis a three year degree into a paragraph but this gets you started!

Conc is a remarkable material, which we think was invented by the Romans. It sets and cures rather than "dries" so will will quite happily work underwater - provided you stop the constituents being carried away by currents. Setting conc involves an exothermic reaction so it heats up - too much in one pour can set itself on fire!

Add steel in the form of "rebar" to conc and you have a material that is nigh on magic in its properties but you do need to know what you are doing. You can simply put C section steel plates in your beams or run FeCr rod through and tension the nuts (lol)

Conc n steel are the modern building blocks of the modern world. I'd like to see a lot more wood ...

30 year mortgages are a political guarantee to homeowners.

They're don't really come from the lending industry - lenders could not and would not ever create this product on their own.

They're a government subsidy to mortgagors enabled by the origination process, obscured by a few hops of financialization.

You get a rate guarantee for 30 years plus you can refi, sell or walk away if the bet doesn't go your way. It's pretty much begging to be exploited.

The counter factual might suffer from Chesterton’s Fence. If you don’t know why the framework implemented “all sorts of things during boot up without our knowledge”, why do you believe that you wouldn’t need to do something similar if you were to rewrite similar code.

The core problem is the knowledge handoff of a library/ framework maintainer. An end user should be able to identify whether the library gives them enough specialization value or whether substituting it for a little elbow grease is “worth the squeeze”. In practical terms, it is always an unknown and depends on the quality of the end developer x the complexity of the task.

Fascinating, I had no idea.
Could be interesting to take a bootcamp the summer between high school and the start of college - for an engineering/CS student prior to entering engineering/CS college.

It could provide a lot of hands-on/industry context that might actually be pretty motivating prior to going deeper into the more rigorous math/CS (i.e. O(n), proofs, data structures, compilers).

Maybe things have changed but back in my day - interestingly a lot of undergrad CS coursework did not cover practical stuff until much later (i.e. which made you clueless for freshman and sophomore summer internships) or you picked it up outside of the curriculum.
Not in my experience. The reason is because of funding. NIH grants are focused on biological discoveries and not so much around infrastructure. So you can get funding to build a tool, but not so much to maintain it. The downstream effect is that tools and websites are stuck in the era in which they were created, databases are not updated, and tools are broken because the grad student left and now there’s no one to respond to issues.

There is a middle ground - subsidiarity - the idea that things should be centralized "just enough and no more".

How that would apply to computing issues and the web isn't entirely clear, but it's likely worth considering as we head into a brave new world of everything controlled by Apple, Microsoft, or Google.

That is false, because you can induce a motion of the steering column without using your hands. If you shift your center of gravity around without your hands on the bars, the steering column will do things on its own and you can learn to predict and control that. Not just simply 0shifting the center of gravity in the seat; you can do things if you seize the top bar between your knees.

A steering column which somehow turns right without your hands will induce a countersteer to the left the same way as if you had used your hands.
This debate doesn’t mention software transactional memory which as a programming model, in languages like Clojure and Scala and Haskell has a much lower cognitive overhead for multi-thread scenarios. Ie it is much easier to ensure you have avoided deadlocks using STM.
The hardware exercises expect you to use a simple HDL, you write an assembler in your language of choice (I used Ruby, but others have used Python or JavaScript), and you write programs for the computer you "built" in earlier chapters using Jack (a language with Java-like syntax).
Timestamp parsing is a surprisingly taxing task for handling a large log file. Skalib documentation also mentions a difficulty [1].

[1] https://skarnet.org/software/skalibs/libstddjb/tai.html#time... "Please do not embed human-readable dates in your log files, thus making parsing tools unnecessarily hard to write; use TAI64N timestamps instead, design tools that can parse them, and translate them to human-readable form at human analysis time."
We went multi-arch for Graviton a while back so our pipes are multi-arch anyway, not much of a problem. The tooling is mostly Go-based so after Go got ARM on M1 it was a reasonable switch. We had switched to podman too but once rancher is M1-ready we'll use that. So not much of a change here, except for some Electron-based apps that were slow to update in the beginning.

Most of the problems were foreseen because we had AIX and PowerPC systems in the past where we had to have multi arch pipelines already, I suppose most of the problems with the M1 were around monoculture setups that we see much more often around the world. Same architecture, same OS, everywhere. But that's actually much less 'normal' over the existence of computers than people think.
You stimulated out the situation where Monty Hall always picks the door without the prize. That’s exactly the standard Monty Hall problem. Change your code to instead allow him to choose the prize door (but never the player’s door). Then condition on him picking the goat door by dropping all the cases where he picked the prize door.

You’ll see that that changes it by discarding scenarios where switching is good (the prize is shown to you) but not ones where staying is bad.

A fair point, but is it an inaccurate statement to say it falls apart when most need it professionally? I can easily accept that MicroPython makes sense for certain use cases, but to recommend it generally for people when I feel like I wasted many hours down the rabbit hole seems to be a bad idea - and I feel like your comment implies it's something like 50/50. So perhaps it's more accurate to say that there are a few pointed use cases when Micropython makes sense to ship with, but at least 80% (and I feel like I'm being very generous here with that number) of people are going to want to go the c/c++ route at the time of writing this comment in 2022, though I could see that changing in the future.

As an aside, I really like Micropython and I spent a LOT of hours trying to make it work at a production level for my use case, but in the end I relented and had to write my software in C - it's not like I'm some low level language purist here. And it's not like my use case is what I would consider super edgy either - a fairly typical project with ESP32 where you wake sensors up on a very conservative basis (once per hour), take basic readings and send the data over HTTPS.
It was a convenient story to cover up wanting to not seem behind "Mac OS Ten".

It's unclear if we can ever know. How can you tell if the neural net is having a subjective conscious experience, or if it's just outputting words in the dark?

I can't see the part of tfa that's behind the paywall so not sure if this is discussed.
