In my experience, for most general practitioners, it's not!

There are specialists for a reason though. But I've found that YOU need to be able to do the work to get the referral and make the diagnoses.

Interestingly though, I had a family practice MD early on in my medical process that had a hunch, long before I suspected I had what he thought I did. (i.e. before I was able to steer the conversation to heavily emphasize certain symptoms after I'd pretty much figured out what I had and needed some diagnostics to confirm.) He just knew... Alas, the test came back negative, and he got roped into other endeavors before retiring. He was brilliant though, he had a PhD in epidemiology as well as an MD. (He even saw one of the very last smallpox cases in the wild.) Much later on, and several doctors later, we finally got that diagnosis right. For one doctor, I had to walk him through the results of the test before he finally put it together.... pretty unbelieveable, and there's no hope for the average patient in that scenario.

I want a manager that can speak to technical matters (ie, they're not a complete "dunce" technically), but I want even more a manager who can keep team cohesion going - someone who can encourage everyone to do their best (whatever "best" is for each person, and in whatever manner "best" is for each)

For some people, it's speaking money

For others, it's speaking tech [enough] to understand frustrations the team (or team member) is going through

For others, it's conveying the business reason(s) behind [non]technical decisions

Etc
sorry to hear about your last 2 years. always open to chat openly about fatherhood (my email contact is in my profile).
1 and 2 are def reasons I hesitate.

I’d add: what possible good could come from criticizing someone to their boss? If I have feedback for someone that’s substantive enough to bring up, then I’ll just tell them. If the relationship isn’t strong enough to just tell them directly, then it’s probably not going to be improved by criticism, even anonymously (however constructive & well meaning).
definitely agree to this. And one segment that they could (should) definitely get customers are those who use ArcGIS. As someone who previously worked in oil & gas, the tax that these companies pay to Arc for all their mapping data is just crazy. I've always wondered why there isn't a solid tech company that could build a product that could take over Arc's business. Looking forward to Felt!
>stricter regulation on moving between regulatory agencies and regulated industries

You seem to assume the existence of a competent and non-corrupt metaregulator (some form of supervisory body that would "regulate the regulators" and somehow prevent "revolving door" scenarios).

- If it exists, why was long-term regulatory capture possible in the first place?

- If it doesn't, how would we go about instituting one?

We're on Hacker News. Exit wishful thinking, enter systems thinking.

- Feedback between regulatory agency and regulated industry: continuous.

- Feedback between regulatory agency and supervisory body: continuous.

- Feedback between supervisory body and sovereign (=the general public getting shafted by the regulatory capture): discrete, and of appalingly low resolution.

I'm told that in the world's dominant democracy, where most of the ideas that we're discussing originate, the sovereign is throttled to expressing its interest in the form of a binary decision once every ~35000 hours.

So, the boffins at the revolving door email each other and call each other on the phone all the time, but the public can only talk to the legislature at the grand rate of 1 bit per 4 years? In that case, I'm prone to applying the concept of "regulatory capture" to any and all regulation that nominally serve the public interest. They simply don't have the bandwidth to establish what the public interest is.

Even at Bitcoin's "low" speed of 7 transactions per second, on-chain voting would still support a much faster democratic process. That's why people are opposed to it. For now, people use cryptos to vote mostly on inconsequential things. That's while the quirks are being ironed out. Some crypto bros who got in for teh gainz got shafted. So what. Maybe in a fairer economic system a fool and his money would be parted even more easily.

Currently, crypto does not work... except as a public "exit"/"no confidence" vote towards the methods through which industry is organized and regulation is instituted. For one to devote time and effort to this emergent form of economic organization, no matter how uncertain its realities might be, is simply to refuse to take part in maintaining a status quo that one has had no part in establishing - and to look for alternatives, no matter how tenuous.

If you don't share services with others and your machine is usually on then its not much of an issue where you run them. But if you share these services then it need not be all that expensive to host it, a raspberry pi can handle quite a lot especially with an add-on drive and you could backup to an online drive service.
On the other hand, with 2-3 children (or more), unless all your children have the same extracurricular activities, you'll spend a lot of time driving/accompanying them to their various activities.

Depending on the children, there can also be a lot of fighting going on, which can be tiring for the parents.

I'd say the jury is still out on the question of the optimal number of children (including zero).

They would have to admit to transmitting more data (thus using more carbon) for aesthetics. That would undermine their blog and make some of their posts look very hypocritical.
Lol the parent ruined the outrage party, but he’s likely correct. I’ve worked at companies that did the same thing and they weren’t “stupid megacorps”.
>I think they should focus on 100% compatibility, and 64bit code generation.

100% compatibility seems to be the main focus of the twinBASIC developers.
64bit code is already available. One big issue is ActiveXs - they are supported, but there are few 64bit third-party ActiveXs. So the support of 32bit ActiveXs in 64bit twinBASIC apps is planned but not yet available.
I wonder how much of this is motivated by the lack of staff. The market of available mainframe operators has been drying up for decades. When your entire business depends on a technology nobody is willing to learn or go to school to understand, that creates a problem.

Also, from my understanding, it can take a tremendous number of distributed x86 systems to supplement the scale, speed and reliability of a mainframe. It's possible that unless FedEx gets away from managing storage arrays and hypervisor farms, they wouldn't have enough staff to operate the datacenters once they're full of enough servers to replace the mainframes.
I forgot about Ed Harris, I think he's way higher than mid-tier; he's very good and has been around forever. West World was probably a bad example thinking about it.

>a very prominent television actor in Cranston

He wasn't very prominent (he certainly is now). The show was for a particular demographic (later GenX) but that's about it. I'd say it was on par with That 70's Show. He was in a few Seinfeld episodes too. Compare that with the cast of LoTR and it's a stark difference.

Point being, some directors prefer fresh faced actors for certain projects and it's worked out well. I'm sure with the supply and demand, there are a lot of good actors that haven't gotten much screen time.
Summary:

This report looks at the impact of avian flu on wild birds around the coast of Scotland.

- It is believed avian flu emerged from industrial poultry farming from East Asia about 25 years ago.

- In farmed poultry there are some measures like vaccination and security to control avian flu. It has now spilled into wild birds where it cannot be controlled.

- Over 70 million infected poultry has been culled globally recently.

The bleak summary at the end of the video report:

"Our unquenchable thirst desire for cheap chicken now threaten whole species of seabirds globally. And may yet threaten us."
Some might return to on-premise data center, but most will not.

It's really just like the utilities these days, 98% people will not dig their own well and install some sewage system and buy a generator, but big companies can still opt to have them on-premise installed, even though some of those are just backup systems.

there is no return for the cloud for 98% of us.

Regarding the team:
"The team who will be creating the “LOTR” TV series includes: executive producers Lindsey Weber (“10 Cloverfield Lane”), Bruce Richmond (“Game of Thrones”), Gene Kelly (“Boardwalk Empire”) and Sharon Tal Yguado; writer/executive producer Gennifer Hutchison (“Breaking Bad”); writer/executive producer Jason Cahill (“The Sopranos”) writer/executive producer Justin Doble (“Stranger Things”); consulting producers Bryan Cogman (“Game of Thrones”) and Stephany Folsom (“Toy Story 4”); producer Ron Ames (“The Aviator”); writer/co-producer Helen Shang (“Hannibal”) and writing consultant Glenise Mullins."

So they have established people in the background and a well known franchise. As for not involving Peter Jackson maybe they just wanted to start fresh, no idea but George Lucas isn't involved of the Mandalorian
I would assume they're also longer terms, 72 to 84 months. Now they got you on the hook for 6 to 7 years instead of 2-5 years.

> Basically if you know how to deal with memory in C, you already know how to deal with GPU memory in CUDA.

is not even remotely true in the slightest. Using memory in CUDA is massively more complex than in C. The actual allocation & deallocation API isn't meaningfully different, no, but that's not where the story ends. The story ends with ensuring memory accesses are friendly for the GPU, meaning coalesced or strided. It means adjusting the behavior of L2 cache for the workload. It means optimizing how you actually get data to and from the GPU in the first place. And, last but certainly not least, cudaMalloc and cudaFree are much more expensive than malloc & free are. Like, orders of magnitude more expensive.

Yes you can do all that micro-optimization for CPUs, of course. But for GPGPU it's actually super critical or your performance is just dreadfully bad. Like, don't even bother using the GPU at all bad.

I don't use submarine in my daily work. But submarine is also not a metaphorical word, it's a literal one - sub (below) marine (the sea).

One could argue that it's an insufficiently specific literal term, and that the word "vessel" should be added afterwards, I suppose. But it doesn't really matter because it's not the same error of form that Allowlist and whitelist have.

> On the surface they might not seem useful, but these discoveries develop sub-atomic models, which help predict atomic, and in turn molecular, models

If those models had predictive power that translates to atomic scale you wouldn't need a multibillion collider to prove them.
I would. That would be up to the library. The things I mentioned are the foundation required for the rest of that to work.
And it doesn't even have true threading in the language, you can do it, but its not like a language construct. What is beautiful about VB6 is your ability to use native DLLs and parts of the Win32 API as well.

I've been wanting to see a VB6 successor for a long time. I have debated paying for Xojo but I'm not a fan of their docs and havent built anything worthwhile yet to justify buying a license.
This is a great answer. I've had one great technical manager, one great non-technical manager, and two average to below average non-technical managers. The difference between the non-technical vs the technical is very well described here. The technical was great as well because they were curious about what I was working on and my solutions in a genuine way, and took an active role in my development.
people who say only season 8 was bad are part of the problem, book readers were warning about important changes as early as season 3 and 4, GRRM left after 4 due to those changes because while not obvious at first, they would result in entire character arcs getting wrecked long term.

The show started going "Hollywood" in season 5 and it was obviously declining in quality but people defended it and got what they deserved with season 8

The Last Lecture, Randy Pausch
I see people assert this all the time. Intelligence is the ability to achieve goals. Consciousness is contents of what you are aware of.

The definitions are irrelevant. People want a definition to do demarcation. But demarcation is boring. I don't care whether some threshold entity is on this or that side of the line. The existence of some distinct territories is enough for me.

There is no reason to imagine AIs are prohibited from occupying territory on both sides of the line.

AIs aren't climbing up a ladder, non local exploration is possible

For me the interest comes from seeing the speed boost between regular kernel/optimized kernel/DPDK. What you put behind the RX layer doesn't really matter, but it's good to see numbers and things to do when your RX system isn't giving you enough throughput.
This is why sanctions are a double edged sword.
Git has both concepts, snapshots and changes. You'd have to contort yourself more than a bit to describe common uses of "git rebase" without viewing it as changes, for instance.

You may be aluding to git's underlying storage being snapshot based, but it actually also has diffs in pack files.

It'd be cool if they could be created and combined in specific combinations and quantities to create new particles that wouldn't exist due to natural formation.

This take is surprising to me as I spent a decade using cvs/svn and at the end of that I didn’t really understand how it worked well enough to have any confidence branching and merging. Switching to git was a steep learning curve but made so much more conceptual sense that in a few months I was very confident in branching and merging and with a couple years had a deep and intuitive understanding of rebasing. Git allows me to edit my work before I push it, committing early and often to help my local development, then editing and packaging into atomic and well-documented commits that will make sense years down the line without wading through the irrelevant hiccups that were part of the short-term development cycle.

I won’t defend the git porcelain because it is incredibly baroque, but because it’s backed by a robust a simple data model underneath I see that as more of a rote memorization challenge than a fundamental flaw. This is far preferable to svn which conflates repos, directories, branches and tags, resulting in the possibility of nonsensical operations and unresolvable merge situations.
