Résumé/CV: https://www.nicholasjunge.com/cv.pdf

Email: nicho[dot]junge[at]gmail[dot]com

I'm a software dev with math/physics background, primarily focused on machine learning and data science/engineering. My main topics of study were theoretical physics, statistics, numerical analysis and ML.

I have worked with some other tools that fit the broader "MLOps" job description too, like Docker/Kubernetes, primarily on GCP. I would like to continue my career in this space (ideally as an MLOps / Data Engineer).

On the side, I have been contributing to a couple of FOSS projects, like Google Benchmark, JAX and ZenML. My latest project is pybm, a Python CLI for reproducibly benchmarking code throughout a git history. You can find it along with several other projects on my github at https://github.com/nicholasjng.
If the kids are really so sleep deprived that we need a law about it, then it's likely some will sleep past their alarms.

Dictating diet by limiting options doesn't sound like a great plan to me.

You know what else is a non-problem? The current start times.
It was an early 2010's internet meme: https://knowyourmeme.com/photos/112843-this-kills-the-crab
It’s less about “saving money” IMO than about wastefulness. Every student going at the same time is just a waste of busing resources. Staggering it a bit is more efficient, which sure saves money but also just prevents waste
Even more generally, reductionism works but with known limitations which warrant a more holistic approach, and we can't work our way out of most real-world problems without this multi-layered approach. Welcome to empiricism in complex systems.

Because Voyager has tried to position itself as a crypto-based alternative to banking. From the front page:

> Build your wealth

> Earn up to 12% annual rewards. Beat your bank by earning top rewards each month on 39 digital assets with no lockups.

They explicitly touted their benefits over using a traditional bank before they issued this notice. They also issued debit cards that they are now deactivating.

Fundamentally, crypto has staked its future on replacing the banking system, citing various issues with the Fed, etc. But the regulatory environment in banking (the FDIC) creates a much more stable environment in which to transact than these platforms do.
Are the alternatives as forgiving about cleaning it when you do manage to get something stuck to the surface? I've never found a nonstick surface that can't get a sauce burned onto it. The great thing about cast iron is that if you do have a tough cleaning job you don't have to worry about damaging the surface. At worst you may need to re-season it, but that would be very extreme.

Some nonstick surfaces come with instructions telling you not to use metal turners or tongs, that kind of nonsense is just not worth it.
It is very common to buy life insurance with a return-of-premium option. If you don’t die before a certain age, you get back all of the premiums you paid into the plan. There’s your incentive for longevity.
Same here. My flood of emails has cut down by roughly half, and LinkedIn has far fewer notifications about matching in searches, in mails, people viewing my profile, etc.

Two months ago it was extremely busy and noisy. It might be even less than half the activity today.
This seems like something pretty easy to spoof.

Personally, I stopped buying Nissan cars because of bad experiences/failed transmissions right after warranty expired.
East coast summer is much worse than fall? What do you mean?
You were lucky. I wish someone had said that to me.

> The problem is that the game industry is constantly doing bait and switch, at least for the last decade

I don't understand this complaint. Just don't preorder games, and don't buy games before reviews drop.
Apparently FTX had to back out of backstopping Celsius? I'd have to imagine this substantially increases contagion risk in the ecosystem.
I feel like people have been saying that for the last 5-10 years. What makes you believe the next 5-10 years will be any different?
I'm not just talking about the getting to school part. I'm also talking about setting the time part via parents at the board meetings.
But the annuity only 'rewards' your longevity if you live 15-20 years or more because that is the bare minimum it takes to get back your capital.
That strategy is even better when you factor in stepped up cost bases on inherited property.
For us in high school we started the earliest. I think the idea was that older siblings might need to care for younger ones when they got out of school. Being a night owl, I’m 100% positive it was a driving factor in my disengagement and eventual expulsion (for truancy) from public school.
I don't use my car's infotainment. The maps are 10 years out of date, though it will sometimes still get me places. However even in the best case of up to date, the maps on my phone get updated with the latest road closures as they happen, and infotainment doesn't.

All I need is a Bluetooth connection, and fortunately my latest phones still connect via Bluetooth to my 10 year old car. Doesn't connect to me 20 year old car - but that never had bluetooth, so while I'm annoyed I can't complain.
Germany keeps making poor choices

They'll pay the price in the next decade by becoming irrelevant

They should have fired all their software engineers, they are definitely incapable of making fast, smooth, and usable interfaces

Using android = they give up, and worse, they embrace the bloat

Now you need even more expensive chips to power the bloat

Congrats to whoever clueless dude is now the manager

Glad i don't own a car, and glad i will never purchase one of their cars
personally it's because logitech is the only mouse that can store their custom mouse bindings and DPI onboard. every other mouse needs to have a daemon running constantly on the computer in the background for some reason, and that's a no-go for esports
Trying to be charitable but this is insane.

I'm not against people taking risks as long as it's very clear what risks they're taking, and as long as the reward is worth it (for any reasonable definition of "worth it").

Pretty much everyone knows how dangerous motorcycles are, and plans (or doesn't, but still their choice) accordingly. The whole point of Ann Reardon's video is that tons of people tried this, and at least 60+ died, without having any concept of how dangerous it actually is. That is also evidenced by many of the videos showing, for example, bare legs and bare hands inches away from lethal contact.

On the "worth it" side of things, obviously that's subjective, and I think the original patterns are neat, but it seems very much a "you've seen one, you've pretty much seen them all" type of effect. Are you honestly saying that you think a substantial risk of death is worth it here?

Yes, it did, it is bullying and harassment no matter if it was past or present. I would also go to say it is pretty much toxic behavior as well, and yet it is still continuing on the V author by others in this thread.

> I saw little or none.

I've assumed you read the comments against V in this thread and it seems like you clearly haven't.

Also, you're not the person being harassed about memory leaks after the author said this was fixed already.
I realized: you’re thinking of news headlines in English. That doesn’t apply to book titles.

You could omit articles in chapter titles if you wanted, but it would change the tone of the ToC: Is this a rigid formal book (no articles) or an easy-to-read introduction (with articles)?
Don't forget locusts. People used to catch them in nets by the dozens when they descended on crops and fry them.

Unfortunately, pesticide use may make them too toxic to eat now:

Ask HN: Value of reading a book without comprehension?
I wonder if reading a book or listening to audio book without comprehending it at the time of reading/listening is still valuable?

Case 1. Imagine you are reading (your eyes going through text) and brain got distracted while trying to comprehend and compare what you are reading with your experience from the past. You realize it after 1 page is done. Do you think your brain still can store chunks of data?

Case 2. You are reading super insightful book, which has 10 primary insights per page, but you only understand 1 insight.
Do you think your brain still saved other insights and eventually will reveal it to you?

Case 3. You are listening audiobook and your brain didn't keep up with the content (language understanding or trying to comprehend past sentences made you think about it too much, and anything else) Because going back and forth can slow down the listening, do you think continuing listening is still valuable and gives enough insights?

Why am I asking? I have mild ADHD and reading books is difficult to me, add into this language understanding (English is not my native language) and I am spending 10-15 minutes per page, trying to understand everything.

At the same time, OReilly subscription makes me really sad, by telling book with ~200 pages takes 5h to finish.
I’ve heard from some that it’s Multifaceted:

* To ensure their values live on

* To take their kids out of a racist environment

* To protect their kids from the high number of sexual assaults from government teachers

* To protect their kids from bullying

* To spend more time with their kids

* Flexibility in scheduling and curriculum
Yeah it was the tail end of a boom in Ireland, and I remember being in a hotel during the week and every conference was public sector, zero private companies. That's when I knew things were gonna be bad.
Yes, for example the FAB line is probably the anti-stomp box. They're mostly plastic, so you would definitely break them after a few good gigs.

Some wah pedals are notorious for breaking down from even "standard" use. Especially the kind that have a plastic "zip tie" mechanism.
While I know some incredible public school teachers, the average homeschool parent I know is going to be much better for their kids than the average public school teacher.

Fortunately if you are homeschooling you can seek out specific teachers to help expand on things and choose those that are excellent. (Many homeschooler start taking community college classes in highschool if there are good options available.)
As some one interested in the space - I definitely feel providing tools to parents for home after schooling is a much, much larger total addressable market size and likely more profitable.

The average after school math tutor probably nets $90-$120 per hour, where the average school teacher probably nets $50 per hour.

It’s insane they are allowed on the road.
None of which work reliably across multiple modules all fighting for control of the logger. Reliable is the key term, here.
Widespread all-legume diets would accelerate climate change if anything, what with all of the methane produced.
I'm sorry that you can't see how I could be making an example. I didn't say anything like, "do this instead". I said, "I've done this".
Congress created them originally, but they gave DEA very wide authority to change them.

(This is also why federal drug legalization could, in theory, be achieved through executive order, if Dems had the spine for that.)
Go to the gas station and tell the struggling families how good for the environment it is that they have to choose between essentials and going to work.

Also anything that affects gut motility, so anything that messes with the nervous system in the gut.

If the signalling controlling eg the sphincter is messed up, the bile won’t escape to the intestines, and if the bile stops flowing you’ll get liver and pancreatic inflammation.

It might be that some toxin in the food could cause such an effect?

I’m not sure how easy it would be to tell if this was the case in an acute setting though. It isn’t exactly common, and is usually chronic and intermittent. Gall bladder removal would seem to be the wrong treatment in this case, but it might be hard to establish? My amateur medical knowledge is insufficient to know, just hypothesising other potential mechanisms.

A novice was trying to fix a broken Lisp machine by turning the power off and on.

Knight, seeing what the student was doing, spoke sternly: “You cannot fix a machine by just power-cycling it with no understanding of what is going wrong.”

Knight turned the machine off and on.

The machine worked.
Do you have a good fish sauce brand? I tried one once and even a couple of drops in a sauce I was preparing managed to make the entire house smell like Poseidon's week old gym socks.
Another one?

Tether is looking stressed. In the last three months, a lot of Tether has been cashed out. Look at the chart for Market Cap -> Last 3 months.[1] From US$82 billion to US$66 billion. Today, US$200 million was cashed out. Every few days, their market cap drops suddenly.
At this rate, in a few months we'll find out how much backing Tether really has, because it is being paid out.

Stablecoins have two stable values: 1 and 0.

Its totally designed for working parents, little kids need the most attention and therefore have the earliest start times. As kids get older they are more self sufficient hence the later school start times. But I think the reason for these times primarily is for parents where both of them go to work early. I am glad to see high schoolers start later as I remember having a very hard time getting up early during my teenage years.
Have you reached out to KlimaDAO about this? It’s definitely something they would be interested in
What a story! Thanks for sharing. I love the bit in there about the lawyer buying the imposter the replica ring. It was written in a pretty unique way. My great great grandfather actually also owned a baseball team named after his signature beer. Random-fact: Abraham Lincoln's granddaughter's husband played for them.
I work in educating young men and women, ages 16 up to around 60. Homeschooled kids almost never make a year in "normal" education. They fail to adjust to a small college, they are no longer the center of attention. They have to wait for others to catch up. They are not team players. It's really hard to watch.
That Sukarno ran an autocratic government?
I would think that hospitals could create price schedules similarly to how other businesses do.

Although I imagine this gets really messy when dealing with Medicare and with the mandate to treat everyone regardless of their ability to pay. I'd expect those arrangements would need to change to make this work.

I feel a bit silly pontificating about this. Hopefully someone who really understands the topic will weigh in.
The "real world" view pretty much depends on the glasses you wear and the observation point.
Thanks, not one that I was familiar with!
Having standards is not the same. Not even close.
It's not so much them getting to school on their own, yes they can easily do that. It's making sure they are actually awake. When my kids were teens, if someone was not there to make sure they got up, they would sleep until 10 or 11. Alarms, etc. had basically no effect they could sleep through a tornado.
It reminds me of the dot com bubble in 2000. I remember clearly walking around in San Francisco, and every younger person that I saw had a scared and stunned look on their faces, realizing how most of them either were, or were going to be, screwed.

Lots of schadenfreude on my part, I must admit.

The whole conqueror of the world attitude bugged the hell out of me, when it was reallly just luck that the picked a good profession and happened to be at the "right" time to see a 400% increase in the NASDAQ, as if it was all them. I was in tech also, but it just bothered me to no end.

So of course, I see a lot of parallels, although tech workers don't seem to be quite a full of themselves now, even with the monster salaries. Emphasis on "quite."
The tweet has been deleted. Here is the text of the letter it showed:

June 29, 2022,

[name redacted by me]
[address redacted by OP]

Ms. [name],

This letter is in reference to your recent post on Twitter. Specifically, on
June 4, 2022, you became upset at the Roe Vs Wade decision and stated,
"Burn every fucking government building down right the fuck now.
Slaughter them all. Fuck you god damn pigs."

This letter is to advise you that any further communications containing any
real or implied harassment/threats against the personal safety of agencies,
employees or contractors towards government facilities are unwarranted
and unwelcome. You are advised as of the date of this letter to cease and
desist in any conduct deemed harassing/threatening in nature, when
communicating to or about the federal government. Failure to comply with
this request could result in the filing of criminal charges for violations of 18
United States Code Statue 115.

In closing, please refrain from any harassing/threatening language when
contacting any government agency.

Sincerely,

Joshua Henry, Special Agent
Threat Management Branch
U.S Department of Homeland Security
National Protection and Program Directorate
Federal Protective Service
Region 7 (TX, LA, AR, OK)

Notes:

- 25 days between tweet and letter issuance

- "Roe Vs Wade" instead of "Roe v. Wade", "Statue 115"

- Weird grammar around "towards government facilities" suggests standard language was slightly modified for this letter

- Mr. Henry forgot to put his signature on the letter

I wonder how many of these are going out.
Agreed, a lot of it shoddy 'science'.

Covid has made this even worse, as they are not poorly ventilated disease pits.

I've met homeschooled kids. They are fine. A cousin was Waldorf schooled from K through 12. He's turned out great.

And what you describe is the better schools.

The bad schools are even worse. And the really really bad schools are even worse. People who live near them and can manage either move, or scrape the money to send the kids to Catholic or private schools.
Actually, I'd suggest that bootstrappers react first, and VCs react somewhat after the public markets do.
I've eaten beans all my life and had no clue.

FYI, the green sprouts in raw potatoes are toxic too.

According to healthline.com:

"Sprouted potatoes contain higher levels of glycoalkaloids, which can have toxic effects in humans when consumed in excess. Eating sprouted potatoes during pregnancy may also increase the risk of birth defects."

Voyager Wallet
You can transfer assets from an external wallet to your Voyager account/wallet. Like Coinbase, the account wallet is not yours (i.e., not your keys, not your coin). If Voyager wants to freeze your account, along with any assets in it, they can. And there isn’t much you can do about it.

No, you're fucked. It used to take up to 2 days to transfer it out of Voyager, before everyone (not a whale) was completely fucked.
