You've saved an enormous amount of energy.
It’s also important I feel to stress that this behaviour exists at multiple levels of magnitude. A professor may not be bending journals and whole fields to their will, but can expect and pressure consistently positive results from their lab, to the point of being actively reckless with the truth and blind to the flaws in their theories.

Just getting caught up in the practice of self-promotion and the trumpeting of one’s “novel and impactful” ideas while managing a lab from the top without having done actual frontline research work in some time can take you pretty far from scientific integrity IMO.

With no culture of being proud of reporting negative or contradictory results, I’d say “excessive scientific zeal” is an easy and common trap. Even a slightly forceful lab-leader or PI can end up swaying a group of people into some grey dishonest zone of scientific practice.
> I think it should also need to actually use a mouse and keyboard too if im being honest.

I'd go one step further and say those mouse inputs should be "fuzzed" a bit as a function of "actions per minute" because humans lose accuracy (both in the time domain and spatial domain) when they try to make more actions faster and faster. Obviously APM needs to be capped as well, preferably actually slightly lower than human APM.

The main reason for this to me is that it will help guide the AI's towards generating strategies which humans can actually emulate and learn from.

If you want to have an AI-only tournament, then by all means make up your own rules. If you want to say your AI "beat a human" then you have to be playing the same damn game.
Monotonic stacks are neat.

I made up a data structure once, consisting of a pyramid of deques. It lets you efficiently compute any associative function over a streaming window of data.
This assumes that everyone learns the same way.Some learn via books,others by..other means.
If I remember rightly we even know and have evidence of some of the specific ways in which China did this, such as not counting deaths of people in high-risk groups immediately after being infected with and hospitalized due to Covid as Covid deaths and instead blaming their deaths on some existing health conditions. Whereas the UK for example counted everyone who died reasonably soon after catching Covid as a Covid death.
If a careless driver crashes into me, I've been wronged by an individual who made some bad decisions. If a self-driving car hits me, I've been wronged by a corporation that probably cut corners and sold a shitty product for profit. I have some sliver of sympathy for the culprit in the first case, but zero sympathy in the second.
Aren't you supposed to ‘buy low’, ‘sell high’?
Web.de was founded in 1995 and GMX in '97. Both now belong to the gigantic German United Internet AG founded in '88 which currently has roughly 10,000 employees and EUR 5.5bn revenue.
This must feel great. Congratulations to you - long may it continue.
The US is slowly bleeding its tech supremacy to EU. I guess losing manufacturing to China wasn't lesson enough.
We provide guidance on how to set your market rate as well based on experience (some people looking to dip into contracting have no idea) whether or not you work on a contract for Facet. We have some documentation there that might be helpful.
Isn't the whole point of crypto that you don't need to get your cash out of a bank account that the government can monitor and potentially lockdown?

The Ecobee is not really any better. It has various "features" which all end up in setting the temperature at a very uncomfortable setting even when you're home.

If I wanted those kind of savings, I could have just turned down my thermostat myself. Jeesh.

Matt Risinger (youtube expert builder guy) mentioned these are not anywhere near as valuable as they seem, and I'm inclined to agree. It's nice to be able to flick it on vacation mode when you're away I suppose.

I'd still buy it again, nice geeky metrics, and it's a quality company, but it doesn't save me anywhere close to 30% (or whatever the claim was).
You are mistaken. Your proof is correct. You assert that no prime less than or equal to N divides N!+1. The argument is clear. The other poster gives an example that does not gainsay that assertion.

From your assertion the contradiction follows that if N were to be the largest prime ...
It can be if you compare it to:

1. Total US population, and total deaths per year

2. Amount of miles traveled yearly.
Yeah--improper incentives cause all kinds of problems.

Once there was an enormous tanker truck fire under an overpass in the Bay Area on a major freeway. A section of the overpass collapsed.

The state asked for bids, but the contract had an interesting feature: substantial sums would be paid for each calendar day the work was completed ahead of schedule.

One contractor underbid everyone by a substantial margin, and got to work 24-7.

Wikipedia:

A contractor with a proven track record of rebuilding damaged freeways (most notably the Santa Monica Freeway after the 1994 Northridge earthquake) well ahead of schedule, C. C. Myers, Inc., submitted a winning bid of $876,075 to repair the damage to the I-580 connector. The bid was estimated to cover only one-third of the cost of the work, but the firm counted on making up the shortfall with an incentive of $200,000 per day if the work was completed before June 27, 2007.

On the evening of Thursday, May 24, the I-580 connector re-opened, just before the busy Memorial Day weekend. The deadline to finish the project was beaten by over a month, with the contractor earning the $5 million bonus for early completion. The entire reconstruction project was completed only 26 days after the original accident.
> I'm confused, are you saying this jobless rust belt person owns a quarter million dollar 18-wheeler?

No, I'm not, and I think you know that I'm not. I grew up around people like this - rich kids who would put exhaust stacks on their lifted F350s - so I know what you mean. My point is that the dem response to the hollowing out of the american working class (obligatory bill clinton approved NAFTA mention) seems to be "should've gone to college lol". Like it or not, white people are the majority in america, so it seems extremely counterproductive to only consider the needs of the "real" (read: not white) working class people instead of the entire group.
Counter question: What's the point of surviving in a world where most of humanity will suffer terrible deaths? Aren't we better off focusing our energy on trying to effect change, helping the commons, instead of purely focusing on the self?
Simple: If it gets too hot I start opening refrigerator doors. If it gets too cold I turn on hairdryers. Energy's cheap where I live.
Is all this true for modern UV LEDs?
They take a dim view of this attitude when it's a transparent attempt at dodging liability.

The relative success of anti-SLAPP statues and motions would indicate that there is at least some empathy for "not forcing people who have not committed a crime to prove that they haven't committed a crime".
famous pig story: Xi PR try always to enfatize his humbling beginnings, [forced to] go in a remote village and be a pig hearder [due to MAO policies] ,he later got a scholarship? for chemical engineering. This image is a problem when people doubt his skills (skills = academic ability = cramming singe childhood). so the propaganda office has to balance the "humble" xi
But is there a reason to privilege the first study results over others? Sounds like a case of the baby duck syndrome.
It doesn't have to be like this though: Other countries pay attention to crashes, especially with fatalities. One of my uncles was a civil engineer working in Spain's government, now retired. All crashes reported to the police would be marked in maps, with an extra layer for fatalities. Then they'd be grouped by the kilometer of road, to look for the sections of road that were the most dangerous. The worst locations would be considered "black spots", and you'd see them in reports that hit the media. Part of the process of prioritizing road upgrades involved sending engineers in, evaluating what made the stretch of road so dangerous, and look for mitigations: From just road markings and using police as a traffic calming measure, to complete rebuilds.

The US has a whole lot more miles of road, and a lot more miles traveled, but I'd be extremely surprised if there weren't areas that prove to be far more dangerous than any other mile of road, and where some efforts couldn't minimize the problem. The way we look at traffic is so much different though: In Spain most roads where cars travel fast tend to be outside of cities. In the US, we have a wide variety of streets rated at 30-40mph, With width and sight lines like roads where you could do 60, but that are really suburban streets where people might actually attempt to cross the street. Who is going to want to track, and fix, the fact that there are a lot of accidents near a high school, in a place where people do 45mph, and teenagers are trying to cross the street to get to the only nearby convenience store?

We build more dangerously, and organize our government in ways where it's far less likely accountability will happen.
I don't think people panic about plane crashes; the grounding of 737s a few years back might have been an overreaction to the statistical signal, but that signal also seemed to point to a deep control theory problem (sensors and systems that prompted pilots to do exactly the the wrong thing in a particular corner case.

9/11 is a better example of what you're talking about, where a genuine disaster was so traumatic as to reshape the whole society in ways often detached from risk or rationality.
Today's intense culture war began with Bill Clinton taking the White House in 1992 (which shocked Republicans to their cores) and was exacerbated by the removal of earmarks from legislation. These caused a wholesale demographic shift that turned political parties into polar monoliths. The only thing that kept Republicans from radicalizing even further this time around is that Trump was basically voted out of office for being obnoxiously antagonistic.
What bothers me is that most pro-science people don't even consider the price tag when they state that a project is worth it. JWST may be a great investment at $10 BN, but would it still be at $50 BN? Or $50 TN? Those who "love science" claim that no number is too high, because the society "benefits".
Is there any evidence that an ejected car occupant injured a bystander even once?
Tries (or prefix trees).

We use them a lot at Pyroscope for compressing strings that have common prefixes. They are also used in databases (e.g indexes in Mongo) or file formats (e.g debug symbols in macOS/iOS Mach-O format are compressed using tries).

We have an article with some animations that illustrate the concept in case anyone's interested [0].

Even if you are well isolated, without air circulation or a dehumidifier you'll be getting mold pretty quickly.
Enron sounds eerily familiar to today's tech companies...
It is criticism based on life experience, delivered with English wit.

Also insults and truth are not mutually exclusive.
I've been in the workforce for more than a decade and every salaried job was a minimum of 40 hours. At best you could comp time for the next week, but only up to so many hours.

If you were putting less than 40 hours a week in your timesheet, you had to use some form of paid time off (holiday, vacation, sick) or simply not get paid.
The Israeli queue.

Like a regular queue, but if something new that comes in sees its friend in the queue already, it can jump the queue and go and stand next to her.

Useful for when something has a big overhead on top of its own processing, but the overhead can be shared between several similar entries. If you're doing it anyway for the one already in the queue, you get to make the most of it for its friends too.

I chose it because I live here and it's totally true :)
It's not even about confidence. It's a matter of being in control. When you drive you can do something about whether or not you crash. When you are a passenger in a plane or train you are completely helpless.
Fair enough regarding the washer/dryer, but I'm unimpressed by the hammer/nail example. If anything, I might want to buy "some nails" rather than "a nail", but I would argue that's not a brilliant guess either—if I'm buying a hammer I most likely already own the item that I want to hit with it. Some more interesting suggestions could have been for example "some pliers", "a set of screwdrivers", "a pair of work gloves", "safety goggles", etc.
Advocate for mutual aid and political action via calling local representatives. There's nowhere on the planet I can possibly move that won't also need a heavy military (that I will have pay for in order to remain in the good graces of the government running that shitshow) to gun down refugees who are unlucky enough to be poorer, browner, gayer, or otherwise less desirable than me.

Acknowledging this fact has placed a heavy importance on my part to support community projects locally.
The people who need them the most are the ones causing all the problems. They shoot up, OD, harass customers, shit on the walls etc. It's their fault this isn't viable, and they aren't even customers.

Businesses shouldn't have to deal with them, we should install public toilers near city hall.
I have been using Bazel (4, then 5) as the build tool for a small Go monorepo with ~10 (and growing) Dockerized applications importing a handful of internal packages. The initial setup was a bit of a learning curve, and it is overkill for our current stack, but builds are very fast.

At the same time, I have been using NX for a larger (though not huge) Javascript monorepo. Javascript is my strongest language, so take this with a grain of salt, but at my org's scale I vastly prefer the NX experience over Bazel. I think the reason is that NX feels like an optimized, natural extension of normal Javascript build tooling, while Bazel requires an entirely separate set of knowledge.
Maybe I am because I should switch careers, I’m visually literate; pretty sure I could do graphics as good as that. I’m also computer literate I’ve used bootstrap, I know how it works. I also code python well enough to understand how create my own decorators and where might be a good place to use yield and I know how to use git. Put up my own website using Jekll AWS, wrote some jekll plugins in Ruby. Dabbled in Arduino ESP PIC Etc etc

Edit: Basically it feels like I currently do an order of magnitude more work for the same money.
If you have a private jet, and pollute a lot by using it for such short flights, atleast don't tell Johnny Average here, that he shouldn't eat beef and shouldn't drive his car to work.
> automation is not going to fully replace us

You say that the AI gave a bad answer, but it did give an answer right? Really fast? And it was cheaper than convening the panel of experts?

That's the fear of AI replacing humans. It's not that it works so well, it's that it works poorly (but fast and cheap).
>"What other engineering field has acceptable death rates?"

I'd say virtually all of them, in some form or fashion. Everything has a tradeoff. There is an acceptable death rate electrocution, if there wasn't we wouldn't allow our homes to have electricity.
If you’re discussing Enron and consulting you could just go straight for Accenture’s predecessor: Arthur Andersen which was the responsible party.
While this annoys the hell out of me too, there is a semi-logical explanation that makes sense in many cases:

The ad targeting knows you looked at washing machines, but doesn’t know you purchased.
To be fair, mulesoft is not an obstacle here, it lets you expose a http API using the built-in components, generate an OAS description pretty easily. Performance can be shaky but just chuck Varnish in front and hire a guy who knows how to read GC logs for a week to tune the STW-pauses and presto, you can handle >10k r/s on a laptop.
I've heard this stated before, is this true? Source?
Everybody is entitled to one free death.
Looks sweet.

>Deliveries begin Late 2021.

Have they shipped any?
Do they have an impact? Sure. Are they large? In most cases no. A well kept and safe building is usually not going to have much trouble getting compliant. And once it’s compliant there isn’t much upkeep. If a business shuts down because of ADA costs, what is more likely is the building has major issues and it’s not worth throwing any more money at it. It’s a dying business.

Also, there is no ADA compliance inspector. One of their customers would have to sue or report them. If they get reported then the remediation is to come up with a plan to address the concerns in a reasonable time. You really only get in trouble when you start willfully refusing to address issues. Again, businesses have had decades to address these. If they close and kill a town now, it’s because they didn’t do the right thing when times were good for them.
if i understand it correctly, its supposed that overall wage increases mean other industries have to compete to get/keep workers but they dont have effeciency increases like manufacturing so prices continue to rise

it makes logical sense, but i wonder if it really is wage competition causing this when wages have been mostly stagnant for the past 50 years?

If you only care about the black lives ended by white cops, you might not care about black lives.
That's when they can really hit home.
Well, if you are doing it correctly, you are supposed to make a sprint goal of a deliverable that has value.
Independent content aggregator sites that don't host the content they promote exist. You're on one right now. Independent video hosting that doesn't do frontend also exists, that's just any file hosting service. And independent video monetisation also exists. Many Patreon users don't host their content on Patreon. So yes, they are independent markets.
Ironically, respect/disrespect for DSM definitions strikes me as good class marker, at least in the US.
I am avoiding settling down in parts of the country that seem to be on a bad climate trajectory. We are still seeing a mass migration to the US sunbelt and that doesn't seem like a good idea long term.
Technically Matter can run purely local, no external web requests (well there are some attestation and certs that are confirmed by the Controller).
Then Matter devices use Endpoints and Clusters for control, device to device or Controller to device.
Matter devices' Commissioning process is done in 2 ways - for Thread devices, they require the operational dataset of the Thread network, which is held by the Border Router, then the Border Router needs information about the Thread Device (Device ID, Discriminator, and PIN Code). This can be exchanged over BLE or NFC with the Controller (smartphone app like Homekit, Google Home, etc). If you have WiFi only devices then Commissioning is done via the Controller only.
In both of these cases any DNS lookup would be done by the Controller.
As opposed to discovered it? I think most people would say he discovered calculus rather than invented it.
In a controlled access highway (no intersections, no pedestrians, no other kinds of traffic but cars going the same direction) with people paying attention and everyone going roughly the same speed the overall safety doesn't really change from 60 to 70 to 80mph. Texas raised the speed limits on a lot of back country highways to 90MPH. Guess what happened to the fatality rate. Practically unchanged.
> The Democratic Party becoming liberal is a recent development.

It being the left-most of the two major political parties has been the case since it was clear how the emerging alignment from the long 20th century realignment was shaking out, by, say, the late 1960s.

> In 2006, 32% of Democrats identified as liberal. 23% were conservative (the rest identified as moderate). In 2018 it’s 46% liberal/35% moderate/17% conservative.

So…what? Unless you have some kind of calibration of where the people with these self-identifications place the liberal/moderate/conservative divides, this doesn’t tell you anything, since it can just as easily be interpreted as shift in what Democratic voters consider liberal vs. moderate.

You can’t measure how liberal the Democratic Party is by how liberal Democrats see themselves.

> That means that even today, a minority of Democrats are liberals. An even smaller minority are progressives. The Democrats are not and have never been a majority liberal party, although that is rapidly changing.

You seem to be using Pew data [0] for self-identification. But–while it lacks the kind of over-time comparison one might like (they’ve done it several time since the 1980s, but the methodology has changed), Pew also has a present (well, 2021) political typology derived by bucketing actual views into descriptive buckets: 51% of Democrats are in left/liberal buckets, 28% in a distinctly-Democratic group that tends to self-identify as moderate, 13% in a moderate group that is about evenly split between the two parties, and the remaining 8% in more typically Republican buckets (all of which are Right/Conservative.) [1]

> The reason democrats like Manchin and Sinema block liberal policies is that they are conservatives.

Neither seems to be a conservative (in any of the senses usually used within the American political spectrum.) Manchin might be in the equally-split “Stressed sideliners” bucket, maybe.

Sinema has maybe made the most rapid transition from a far-left critic of the Democratic Party for being too friendly to the Right to the the very right edge of the Democratic coalition over her career as a political activist and politician…or she is just an ideology-free opportunist.

> How is Tesla parking money in Bitcoin much different when most of them are essentially atttempting to make money outside their specialty?

Car manufacturing is cash intensive. When car companies finance car purchases, they’re rarely doing so off balance sheet. They aren’t parking money; when they felt the need to they historically returned it to shareholders.

Tesla financed its Bitcoin wager off balance sheet. It lost cash on the adventure, cash which could have financed operations.
Lost me at "code saves itself automatically." Code history ought to be curated with care.
That's probably because people themselves are bad at predicting their own choices. Depending on mood, the day, even your hydration level, you can feel vastly different about something.

I believe this was a conclusion of the Netflix Prize contest, getting much more accurate at predictions was hard because people would not reliably rate a movie the same.
