> For school shootings, it’s rationally absurd to worry about those rare events.

Rare events that only happen in America.

I don't know what kind of parent looks at a rare event where their kid might die and says "yeah, I'm okay with that".
That is what I meant by my comment, I was not referring to learning exercises, I should've been more clear, though.
Worth noting that most home fridges have no kind of indication that they can't keep up.

Your fridge, rather than being the 5C it should be to keep your meat safe to eat, might have been up at 12C. You wouldn't be aware (it still feels cold), but you'd end up eating possibly dangerous food.

I really wish fridges had an alarm in that case (ie. The fridge has an indicator saying 'too hot. Food is now unsafe to eat').
Oh, cool. So I have to learn two languages. And it's going to look like shit if I don't also learn CSS, so three languages. And then there's meta-languages, like frameworks and CSS pre-processors. Writing a web-page that lets you log in and looks halfway cool isn't an inviting project for a ten-year-old.

The book lost connections is a really good read on this.

It points out the problems in modern society and our lives that lead to depression rather than it just being something that can be solved with a pill.

Things like our lack of connection to meaningful work, our lack of connection to each other and our lack of connection to nature all play a big part.

I'm a UX Engineer and although that means I deal with technical discovery, user testing and the effective implementation of design - It is true that the most challenging part of my day is facilitating communication and helping to resolve misunderstandings and challenge priorities between Design, Engineering, Research etc.

I do this in-person, and also with tools, technology, and documentation.

What I have observed..

Firstly

There is an historical divide and a sense of importance on the part of both disciplines. Each thinks they should have priority.

Secondly

In a Start-up or any company that is working like a start-up to get a product off the ground, we build for MVP and we use Generalists/T-shaped people and we work expediently with a flexible process.. ever heard of a JFDI?

When teams grow and products scale, we tend to hold onto this expedient way of working, because stakeholders do not want to give up the rush of getting what they want ASAP.

Nobody really wants to slow down in order to perform user testing, or implement a healthy process between design and engineering - we have formed bad (although appropriate once upon a time) habits and it's not expected that you will say 'no' upwards.

Thirdly

Having worked expediently, there is likely design and technical debt, this cripples the ability to form processes / better habits because there are almost always things to fix, and changing to a more considered process starts to look expensive when there are alway live bugs to fix.

Finally (Although probably not)

When a way of working needs to change, it is very, very hard to not sound critical of the work that has gone before.

No matter how I have approached it, whether I've met with groups or individuals, if I've been soft or stern.. People are sensitive and resistant to change, and if you are unlucky they will collude and actively work against the effort.

I can't recall roughly when public sentiment of Amazon ratings really went south, but this was 5 years ago, and even if Ring product ratings were being gamed at the time, extending the benefit of the doubt to Amazon M&A staff in having done their SNR due diligence of ratings that they have full internal control over before committing over $1 bil doesn't strike me as charitable.
> That's definitely true today but anti-trust or other government action could eventually shake that up.

Why would the government do that though? The main complaint in this instance is that YouTube is attempting to enforce the government's rules. As far as I've seen, major complaints against YouTube when they act in the interests of a government (or political party in some instances).
Bluetooth poor audio quality is not a myth. The bandwidth is just not there for high quality audio. Even with aptx. That's why companies roll their own with BLE and the 2M phy. And even with that it's still flaky because it's wireless and can and will drop packets.

Yes, BLE audio is an improvement but those devices are still in the future. What you have currently, you're better off using your smartphone DAC.
I think the actuarial risk profile is probably more correct than the general public's press-release driven risk perception.

I've been using cheap Brother and HP printers exclusively because my printing needs are simple, and I've been pleasantly surprised how well supported they are on computers and phones. This might be a Bluetooth-esque tragedy of poor vendor/driver/client/server/etc implementations ruining a good thing for some users.
Ex HVAC tech here. Also was on a commissioning team for a Google DC in SE Asia.

Heat waves indeed kill equipment. The system is attempting to deal with a higher heat load on the home/conditioned space, while also having to operate with high(er) ambient temperatures.

High ambient temps -> High heat load -> warm(er) return refrigerant temps/high(er) refrigerant pressures -> less cooling for compressor / higher mechanical load on compressor -> Elevated power consumption as compressor is working harder -> higher power/heat levels stress electrical insulation & components.

The system struggles to keep up as the duty cycle is elevated as well. Putting a sprinkler next to the condensor (outside) unit is a hack.
> Someone new at the company makes a revenue report based in the billed Invoices and does not realize they should query the view and not the table... Not great if 90% of all invoices belong to soft-deleted customers!

This is not a great example of what you mean. If a customer purchased a product or subscription, paid for it, then later deleted their account, the company has received revenue so that data absolutely should be on revenue reports.
No, I am not trolling you here.

First of all, real-life data sets have hundreds of thousands of endpoints, and it's easy to classify a few hundred, maybe a few thousands endpoints for a single person. So scaling it up to a point where it's easy for every person involved in it requires hiring a team of dozens, or even 100+ people. That is absolutely not easy, especially not on a short term notice, and not when it's 100% a dead end job, so it's difficult to convince people to come do it in the first place. I'm yet to have met a single company whose idea of scaling it up involved something more elaborate than "we're gonna hire three freelancers". At 30k endpoints/person that's about an order of magnitude away from "easy", and transferring that order of magnitude to the hiring process ("we're gonna hire thirty freelancers") isn't trivial at all.

Second, it is absolutely not at all easy to supervise. QC for classification problems is comparable to QC for other easily-replicable but difficult to automate industrial processes, like semi-automatic manufacturing processes. There is ample literature on the topic, starting with the late period of the industrial revolution and going all the way to present times, and all of it suggests that it's a very hairy problem even without taking into account the human part. Perfect verification requires replicating the classification process. Verification by sampling makes it very hard to guarantee the accuracy requirements of the model. Checking accuracy post-factum poses the same problems.

This idea that classifying training models is a simple job that you can just outsource somewhere cheap is the framework of a bad strategy. Training data accuracy is absolutely critical. If you optimize for time and cost, you get exactly what you pay for: a rushed, cheap model.

We do need a world police to enforce at least some basic rules like to not genocide minorities (like China does) or to permanently kill off an ecosystem that is important for the whole planet's climate for short-term profits.

I don't like the idea either, but given the corruption and deadlock of the UN, I prefer the role being taken up by the US instead of Russia or China.
The "Profiling/Debug Info" chapter states that one needs to rebuild compiler and stdlib in order to profile the stdlib.

If I understand correctly, this can be accomplished via flag '-Zbuild-std'.

For us to come around and examine/judge her as if she was a brainwashed fool in a startup cult makes no sense.

First, she chose to work there. She was not forced to. She has agency; she could leave at any time.

Secondly, the discussion is about work culture. It's not that she painted the work culture as toxic; she painted the work culture as inviting, meaningful, and something that helped her grow, despite the long hours. Surely something can be gleaned from that.

Thirdly, this is a startup culture. You can't choose to work in a high-paced kitchen, and complain about the heat. If you can't take the heat, leave. It is the company's problem to find someone to replace you and your value; just like you can't blame the world to change and fit you (as you must make the change to yourself), you can't blame the company to adjust around your style. Companies are commercial ventures; they have different goals and expectations than the individuals working for them.
I think it's unfair to say that it's "without any hardware acceleration". These tricks work because the VIC-II can unburden the CPU a lot by letting it work with character cells and character definitions instead of individual pixels, and in Parallax, all the CPU needs to do to create the parallax effect is to redefine the 32 bytes that define the background characters.

I didn't know that Flimbo's Quest trick, that's cool!

Salvatore Pais on Quantum Gravity, UAP Patents, Pais Effect, and the Superforce
I manage a team which operates services (among other things) for clients. Our aversion to being on-call drove us to build robust systems, automate the heck out of everything and monitor as much as possible. That allows us to spot issues during the day shift before they become problems for the night shift, so on-call duty became over time a relatively relaxed affair for the team.

This annoys me to no end, too, but I'd say the issue isn't as much Bluetooth itself as the implementation of multiple sources on the headphones.

I have the exact same issue with a pair of Jabra headphones that have multiple wired inputs. They'll switch between them for frivolous reasons.
Legit everyone does. I one time had to convince a VW dealership to read a TSB issued for my 2012 Golf Cheater Edition, bluetooth only played the left channel of audio, but it played on both sides, so you needed music that was different enough on each channel to really notice. Dealership didn't want to believe me until I showed them left/right channel tests on youtube on both android and iphones and told them to use their own phones to test. It took about an hour to flash the repaired firmware on.

Android is on its like 3rd bluetooth stack now? Gabeldorsche, since the meme is rewriting in rust. Every device can support a different number of codecs, everything works on the fallback (or should) but the high definition codecs are a crapshoot.

I tried to learn why BT is still somehow painful to use, and the article basically does not have an answer.

My take from comments here and my experience:

- Makers of BT devices can't agree on many important common things (easy discovery / pairing mode, priority, etc), and have little incentive to seek agreement. It's like phone chargers before USB.

- Makers of BT devices tend to cut corners and/or add not-entirely-standard features. They "save" on writing a good driver. They care little if devices made by their competition don't work reliably or at all in the mix. (And even sometimes their own!)

- RF noise makes radio interfaces like BT inherently not always reliable. But the user never notices when a small EM storm rages nearby, for the user it's just "damn bluetooth glitches for no reason at all".
No, 50% of GOP voters are beholden to Trump and will do what he says. Liz Cheney is being ousted by him right now. Trump is backing candidates who support him against those who do not, making a lot of GOP afraid to speak out.

Oddly, if he does announce he's not running, he may lose influence.

Trump has to keep the appearance of power otherwise the structure will eat him alive, they hate him.

He'll have to keep fighting all the way to the grave.
I get far fewer problems if I make sure there's a 1:1 pairing between devices.

GCP sure does seem to have a lot of outages that span across multiple availability zones (and occasionally across multiple regions). It sure does seem like there is a disconnect between the expectations of isolation that they set and what they are able to deliver.

It's also interesting that the status page's attempt to spin the scope of impact actually makes it seem worse that it was full-region outage (they said, "There is a cooling related failure in one of our buildings that hosts a portion of capacity for zone europe-west2-a for region europe-west2 ...")

Synthetic user IDs can still qualify as PII since a human may still know which person that ID was associated with and data associated with that ID may be sufficient to narrow down who it was even if no human (or system) knows the exact mapping.

Pseudonymous data is not anonymous data.

But yes, the GDPR obviously allows for legal requirements of record keeping. It does however require you to delete the data once those requirements no longer apply (i.e. you have to ensure data is still deleted after those several years, you can't just not delete it because the deletion time is years in the future).
An actual answer..

How to get developers and UI designers to work well together?

1. Expect to implement new ways of working as you scale and communicate this.
2. Manage expectations with stakeholders and have them champion change.
3. Centre your efforts around Users, not any one persons or departments ideas.
Chrome is horrible, it is so unstable and crashes all the time.
Now that's a lazy explanation. Inflation does not equal pay. That's a lazy assumption folks love to repeat without the slightest evidence. Other than the lazy "It's obvious to me".

Think of a world that worked that way. The only way to make a country work is to have a slave-labor class that struggles for a pittance while simultaneously bidding up the prices on things? I guess Karl Marx would agree, but I don't think he had any more evidence than "It's obvious to me" which is the bar here.
At around 12 years (having learned some extremely basic Q-BASIC from a book, no computer at home to test it on) I co-wrote a scareware with a friend from school on their family computer. It would fake formatting your computer. We knew about GOTO, but not about loops (or faking them with GOTO). So we copy and pasted the same line 100 times and edited the number in every line :D Good times ;)

> It does seem to have been Brexit...

That graph looks pretty suspicious. Why was the UK growing at exactly the average rate for an EU country before Brexit?

Wikipedia suggests [0] that the UK's GDP growth in 2019 is in line with & superior to Germany and France. It isn't really very illuminating to look at the UK vs the EU - there isn't any reason apart from that remarkable co-incidence in the graph to think the the UK would perfectly mirror EU trends.

Also, this fits the repeated pattern of:

Hey, your business is doing something detrimental to people. People have political power, so stop it.

What if we just do it to people that don't have political power.

Carry on.

You see this with large corporations being slowly forced to change their ways in their home countries while continuing the same practices in developing nations. Or locally, where businesses that affect air pollution are allowed in some populated areas but not others where those with political sway live.

Some people, when being told "don't sell your death sticks to children" would perhaps reconsider the whole selling death sticks thing. Others will find and exploit every weakness in the system to continue making money from it.

> But just doubling the amount of solar installations would mean that Germany could run at times entirely on solar.

Remember that

Germany has about the same solar potential as Alaska [1]

Capacity factor for solar in Germany went from 5.7% in 1990 to 11.1% in 2019.

Even increasing it at 10%/year to double it would take 7-8 years.

It's not that simple to "just double it", Italy makes 43% of its energy from renewable sources, it's mainly hydro thanks to our geography and it's been like that since at least 20 years, but the numbers aren't going up very rapidly, there's a limit on how many dams you can build.

Also, renewable like solar and wind are increasing and replacing the thermoelectric (gas, coal, fossil in general), the problem is we still have to buy at least 10% of the required energy from other countries, that might or might not use fossil to produce it.

The point is not if we will be able to use 100% of renewable energy in the future, the point is "can we wait long enough for them to reach that point, before it's too late"?
