This doesn’t work once you are big enough or have been around long enough that a service needs to be rewritten. Personally I’m a proponent of <code name>_<functional name>. Descriptive names with the ability to disambiguate.
Not any more than buying a new car in 1980s, especially American-made one.
Almost anyone can afford property… provided you’re willing to move.

I’m where I live it costs $40-$50k / acre up to $150k / acre. 30 min away it’s $3-4k / acre.

I personally am opposed to property taxes. I think it basically implies rent of the land. Then again, I’m basically opposed to all taxes except tariffs and perhaps licensing fees.

For instance, you could implement a licensing fee to use the public roads. Or add a tax on import / export of goods across the protected border(s). But beyond that I view all taxes as far too intrusive. Why should my land be assessed? Why should I provide any details to the government so they can tax me? The “government” is infact my “neighbors” and I simply don’t think it’s their business what my assets are.

One of the main reasons I quit being a professional software developer was the expectation of being on call. My sleep and my free time with my family are more important than any job. No matter how much I like the normal work, and how much they pay me, I'm done working jobs that insert themselves into my home life and ESPECIALLY that wake me up in the middle of the night. EVER.
Adding features to existing software is much cheaper than writing entirely new software (not to mention the cost to switch!) At the same time, new features in low level software can unlock substantial value. Say a new API that speeds up your app by 1% or cuts down on further development time by a small fraction.
Each state has water rights assigned by a priority system within the state. So you know your priority level within Arizona.

Arizona, Nevada, Utah and others split up the Colorado river between them. That split does not use a priority system. So the person in Arizona in a bad year with a high priority is still behind people in other states with a lower priority, as long as that state doesn't use more than their water. And water rights cannot transfer between states.
I'm using this argument in my next code review meeting.

Short term happiness comes from things that release dopamine/oxytocin: (1) Drugs, (2) Sex, (3) Cuddling (4) Video games... etc

Long term [personal] happiness usually comes from self-actualization (I am doing meaningful work and am competent at it) and having an upward sloping trajectory in life (i.e. things were worse for me before, but they're getting better and they will be better in the future). It's affected by expectations (i.e. did things turn out better than I expected). It can also come from having meaningful relationships with other people.

Modern society: (1) Sets high expectations of what is achievable which sets people up for disappointment for what they will actually achieve

(2) Reduces in person connections due to a lot of work being more solitary/computer work and people interacting with the physical world less

(3) Does not highlight the "bright future" of tomorrow (and specifically how things will improve if you live in a western nation)

(4) Lots of people end up choosing whether to do meaningful work or get paid well - meaningful work rarely pays appropriately (teachers, nurses, etc. even things like nuclear engineers being paid less than frontend software developers for ex.). Partly this is due to bad incentives and cost of capital that is too low (i.e. software/finance has gotten disproportionately "fat" relative to it's contribution to social well-being. Higher interest/hurdle rates would solve some of this)
Yes they can. You need to additionally run a firewall on your mobile device (and/or a firewall on your home network) and block all of the common DNS IP. Then only NextDNS or your choice of DNS is available (and encrypted)

Google just wants you to use them for DNS so they can still see where you are going :-)
Consider me a grandma. I work in tech but I'm also tired of it.
Quite the opposite, we have very safe languages now in 2022. Any software that's not written in Rust or Haskell has to explain the trade-off of being written in an unsafe language. Of course the industry will still use unsafe languages, but we lack the awareness that we're intentionally writing garbage software in garbage languages that should be treated as radioactive material in any context where safety matters. If you pick a language without understanding this point, you're part of the problem. If you pick an unsafe language understanding that X matters more than safety, then you saw all of this coming and you made an educated gamble.
The way people in the US plan for old age and retirement, and the way they are treated by society, is terrible and property taxes are aspect of that. But the only way you should be able to own land tax free is if there are no government services provided on that land. No utilities, no public road, no emergency services, no municipal services. I don't know of anywhere in the US where that is an option. Unless you're saying you want that funding to come from a different source, which would mean a total restructuring of the tax system in the majority of localities.
Wrong. It is still impossible due to the extremely low concentrations of lithium. Studies like these are just wishful thinking. Just because you can extract minute quantities of it doesn’t make it remotely economically viable.
I think both. I strongly remember those giant pizza sized cookies at the mall in the early 90s.
Not really, major companies are already using end users for beta testing, a/b testing and relying on user reports for bug fixes. It's becoming more and more standardized to release an inferior, bug filled product and just wait till users complain about something before fixing it. Reactive vs proactive is cheaper.
You can't be a little bit nazi. It's like ice cream and poop: if you add a gram of poop to ten tons of ice cream, you've just created ten tons of poop.

A society's level of tolerance can be measured by the least tolerant group it allows. If you allow nazis to remain at your private party, then you've joined the nazi party.

If gab, with its deep antisemitism, is tolerable to you, well...

I choose to not tolerate antisemitism, hence my comment.
Few people cyclists in the U.S.A. suburs are cycling for transport instead of sport... because of the infrastructure. Only mad cyclists dare their life for it!

The danger while cycling is not the bike or falling down, it's the motorized users.
Valuing a building+land is already done and used for property tax purposes. Why do you think it would be worse or less accurate to just remove building part?
serious question: in what way is that not a “problem?”

Yeah, if soda bottles had a $1 deposit on them to ensure proper recycling that would be pretty tough to adjust to but good for the environment.
You may be able to get to it from `gitk` (it's under File > Start Git Gui). I've seen distributions that don't include the `git-gui` shortcut in PATH but do add `gitk` to somewhere in PATH.
Groundwater doesn't follow the same priority system (in most states).

Nor is there anything stopping people in border areas from taking all the water in another state's aquifer.
>But remember, the bias ends with the user using the tool. If I want a black scientist, I can just say "black scientist".

That is a really, really, narrow viewpoint. I think what people would prefer is that if you query "Scientist" that the images returned are as likely to be any combination of gender and race. It's not that a group is "fragile", it's that they have to specify race and gender at all, when that specificity is not part of the intention. It seems that they recognize that querying "Scientist" will predominantly skew a certain way, and they're trying in some way to unskew.

Or, perhaps, you'd rather that the query be really, really specific? like: "an adult human of any gender and any race and skin color dressed in a laboratory coat...", but I would much rather just say "a scientist" and have the system recognize that anyone can be a scientist.

And then if I need to be specific, then I would be happy to say "a black-haired scientist"
Image generating artificial intelligence is very analogous to a camera.

Both technologies have billions of dollars of R&D and tens of thousands of engineers behind supply chains necessary to create the button that a user has the press.

>> ie we first gather a cookie dataset,

Is there a chance your dataset provider makes a claim that they have derived data rights over your model generated images? Would you have sufficient confidence, say, to sell your images on a stock image site?
ya, so that was the original Idea for this project (and still is-ish): A user generated sample platform. Then I decided I need a slick way for folks to preview the samples and am now trending towards building a composition tool.

Also feel free to download and use the samples. They are 100% royalty free.

In US I have not seen any government services that are available only via mobile devices. Most online government services are accessible via a website, and one can go to a public library to use a (non-mobile) computer there.
What area is this? Are homes being built anywhere in the area?
Assuming bridesmaids/groomsmen would otherwise be selected from the respective sides' extended relations of similar age, this isn't surprising considering the impact of both the one child policy and the urbanization of China, which would limit the number of relatives available.

In many cultures, wedding ceremonies themselves (not the parties and receptions) are mostly an in-family thing, so you wouldn't have friends, however close, as attendants to the bride and groom.

Lacking relatives, it might be easier to just hire these actors. It's a bit odd to be taking photos with them, but perhaps just having a lot of people in your wedding photos has cultural currency.
I have nothing against property taxes and I think they are good and should be higher - as the article says, the price of the houses stays the same and the government gets a bigger cut at the expense of land speculators. That's a good thing.

However the arguments feels defective because it uses Chicago as an example. Surely the reason housing is plentiful and affordable in that city is because it has been slowly depopulating for decades and it currently only 75% as populous as it was at its peak.
I guess that depends on what you define as "success" going along with the not using taxes to legislate morality, I also do not believe it is the role of government to protect someone from their own bad choices (i.e sugar or cigarettes), going along with this is one of the reasons I oppose a single payer government run health care system in the US, because if we have a UK style health system then adding in all of these legislative actions to control every aspect of a persons life becomes a valid cost control argument

I dont want the government telling me what I can or can not eat, or setting tax policy on their recommendation. I also grew up with the food pyramid as the "government approved" diet that today most people agree is terrible, and if it did not directly cause it heavily aided in the obesity epidemic we have today (in the US).

Distrust in government is our (the US) founding principle, and I have a HEAVY distrust of all government experts. As one of our presidents famously said "The nine most terrifying words in the English language are "I'm from the Government and I'm here to help"
DALL-E can generate recognizable pictures of Homer Simpson, Batman and other commercial properties. Such images could easily be considered derivative works of the original copyrighted images that were used as training input. I'm sure there are plenty of corporate IP lawyers ready to argue the point at court.
Western Digital begins shipping HDDs with up to 22 TB of storage
A possible consequence of the current legislation is that instead of a system-wide service where Apple Pay or Google Pay can work with different banks, each bank now demands to handle NFC payments within its own app. You may find that Google Pay is no longer supported by banks.
"They can also hand it down to their family, entrenching wealth for generations."

Nearly all future mining proposals are lithium ore. We simply don’t have enough brine water to meet demand.
> property taxes are terrible for old people. you should be able to buy a reasonable amount of land tax free.

When LVT is used to fund UBI, that ability is automatic: the "break even" point (where your taxes minus dividends are zero) would represent you owning a "reasonable amount of land" (as measured by value). If you own more than that, you pay for it; if you own less than that, you're paid for it.
I just don't think an audio plugin should be able to bring down the entire host application due to bad memory management.
jQuery is still wonderful.
I tend to agree with you, but found an exception a while ago.

A certain file has to appear before a specific time, or else some people don't get money they deserve and rightfully get very angry.

Except 1 or 2 times per year there is nobody in that situation. No payments have to be made. No file appears, as other alerts would signal an empty file.

As the relevant time was in business hours and the thing was important, I decided to swallow my pride and accept that invalid alert.

Resolution procedure is documented as: Call team X, and ask if this is correct. If yes, blackout that alert for 24 hours
Favorite part of quitting my last nightmare of a job was that I continued to get text notifications that I was the on call person for the night/weekend for ~6 months after I left. I slept well each night knowing I had the something is broken notification number blocked

Or maybe this reality is actually a dev environment.
I wonder if they'll even make back what they spent on training the models before competitors of equal quality and lower cost eats up their margins.
I have had one since around April, and the hardware quality is good. Their blog also shows where they had to change processes because their QA caught things like the header plastic warping and is a good source of how to bring a product to market in the middle of a pandemic. I do feel like their software quality, while functional, could stand some polish, but it's fine. I'm currently working on making an add-on board for its gpio pins.

I see no use in this incarnation.. I expected a DAW, and most of all something that's multi-user/collaborative.

But it's probably fun to work on
How's it NOT a problem? If I'm trying to produce "stock people images", and if it only gives me white men, it's clearly broken because when I ask for "people" I'm actually asking for "people". I'm having difficulty understanding how it can be considered to be working as intended, when it literally doesn't. Clearly, the software has substantial bias that gets in way of it accomplishing its task.

If I want to produce "animal images" but it only produces images of black cats, do you think there is any question whether it's a problem or not?
TFA doesn't say, and it's hard to make an educated guess without (I think) being embedded in Chinese culture.

In my experience, the entire point of bridesmaids is that they are your friends, sharing your "special day". The photos exist to document that you were, briefly, the top of the social heap and the center of attention. It wouldn't be meaningful to hire non-friends.

Which isn't to say it doesn't happen, of course. And since TFA says that the get 10-20 "inquiries" per day, it may just be that with > 1 billion people there's always somebody doing anything. In which case it's probably hard to draw any patterns about what people want, since they're so far off the end of the bell curve.
Or lemmatization and BM25. Often better than SBERT in my experience when using it out of the box.

US Teen suicide looks like around 8-11 per 100k, age 15-19, depending on year (source: https://www.americashealthrankings.org/explore/health-of-wom...), with 9 states over 20.

Compare to Germany, 184 between age 15-20 (https://www.aerzteblatt.de/int/archive/article/213427) from a population of 5.41 million (https://www.statista.com/statistics/454349/population-by-age...), or 3.4 per 100k.
1) Cyclist are on the right side of the road (not against the ditch/gutter/curb...), and easy to see past them to know if you can safely pass them.

2) Most cyclist do, some do not, same as drivers
3) Same as 2), and cyclist can be aggressive when your life is at stake. I think drivers mostly forget they are in charge of a dangerous machine.
The fact that they accepted the job?
it depends how you want to grow. if you want to be really deep on one subject, a larger company will get you that more easily since teams tend to be more siloed and focused. if you want to learn a breadth of things, jump from data to backend to frontend to devops, a smaller company will be better. if you want to grow in training/mentorship/leadership abilities, high growth small company will give more opportunities but nobody to help you, whereas a high growth team in a large company may be much better supported to train you how to mentor/lead(there should people that can mentor you).
Also in larger cities, large busses are frequent. If my small town ran busses every 10 or 15 minutes, there'd be a lot more riders.
Waste of talent is not correct it's more like talent actively being used for harm.

Pay walled.

In the accessible part, taxes were noted (among other items) to be increasing. However when faced with a large special assessment, the owners could apply to have their property tax assessment lowered by at least the amount of the special assessment until repairs have been completed.
Agree and disagree. I dont think it is as simple as an issue that just gets clicks. It is a real issue because it is insane. Where I agree is, no one wants to do any real analysis to figure out how we got here because, its not a simple a problem. It is a problem with a lot of sources, and being able to tackle this, will probably help in other areas (like suicide rates).

Good way to word it. Suicides alone are an NP hard problem. Homelessness is an NP Hard problem, etc. Mass shooting could be a sort of NP Complete problem. If you can come up with solutions that prevent mass shootings, those same solutions will probably greatly reduce the others.

Just to name, a probably short, list of sources.

- We have a poor gun culture. Guns used to be viewed as tools, now they are some cool gadget that is apart of someone's identity.

- We often ignore and stigmatized mental health issues. If you want mental health, you are seen as weak or pathetic. When in reality, we probably all could use some sort of neutral third party counseling at the very least to talk about issues we individually face out loud.

- Insurance coverage is pretty shitty for mental health. My last employer had good benefits, good medical benefits, but it only covered 3 or 4 mental health appointments. Other than that, it was a decent plan.

- We probably should honestly evaluate the process of purchasing a firearm. You can be placed on a no-fly list for suspected involvement in terrorist activities, but can still purchase a gun? Doesn't seem to make sense to me at all.
Good, and I wish them luck. The practices that companies are willing to engage in to prevent unionization are cartoonishly evil.

The best part is that they could have avoided all of this by paying their QA more for fewer hours. The changes they'll likely be forced to make by a union are probably much more dramatic than what they could have quashed pro-union sentiment by simply introducing themselves. Put another way: As an engineer, I have a great salary, good stock options, and decent hours. I favor unions in principle but don't have a drive to force my company to set one up because I am not so poorly treated that I think I need it. Why not treat QA the same way?

The exploitative practices that some in tech - especially the games industry - are exposed to are a long-term bet that those people won't mind being exploited and won't be convinced they can do better. It's a shame that bet pays off as often as it does.
