There are endless resources for the second type of person; it's the person who wants to make nacho cheese sauce that is underserved. Once you've got them to make that, you got somebody who can also make gravies and bechamel, and you can suggest other things they they might want to try to cook after they're pretty good at nachos.
Makes sense why this would raise a red flag, but it does not explain why Stripe supposedly had extremely shitty customer service where he can't get talk to a person and get this resolved in less than a week or two (let alone 120 days that is actually arbitrarily indefinite).
Trump is still proof an outsider can win. He needed money but someone outside the political class still came in and won despite his parties best efforts against it (at the beginning when he was just a primary candidate they made their bed with his now).

I would argue that there are two such vocal minorities.
After reading a long form interview with a FBI Whistleblower out of their Minneapolis counter-terror office (will link if I find it), working in another part of the govt myself in a previous life, and having some exposure to FBI tech recruiting and related programs, I am convinced large parts of the FBI are horribly inept at providing their core competencies in a changing world.

They display the dangerous balance of huge scale and access with an inability to hire well outside of key roles (legal for people trending DoJ, special agents in flagpole jobs, etc).
Yes, BBC isn't moderate just like NPR isn't moderate anymore. May be in the 20th century, BBC and NPR were neutral. But, that's clearly and indisputedly not true anymore. They're all left leaning.
> Bullshit. Anyone can post, but how much their post actually gets shown to others is dependent on the algorithm. Everyone gets a microphone but the microphone manufacturer gets to decide how loud every microphone is.

Yes, and people like it, and we know that because they continue to engage with the content. If they didn't like the results of the algorithm they would not engage.

The algorithm does not shape people's preferences -- quite the opposite! It is an attempt to discover their preferences and cater to them in order to sell more advertisements. If the algorithm did not give people what they want, it wouldn't work, and social media companies would have to change it in order to chase the advertising dollars.

If there were two equivalent social networks, and one of them had algorithmically curated content and one of them just presented a straightforward chronological feed of posts, the vast majority of people would flock to the one that had the algorithm. The social network that did not have an algorithm would need to invent one in order to stay in business.
And I bet the team would help with those migration scripts if you asked!

It sounds like you're a pretty experienced chef and we're targeting beginners (that experience question was more to get a sense of who our users are).

If you consider that we're trying to start with levels 1, 2, and 3 of cooking before moving on to the far more advanced topics, do you still think it's useless? Or does your perspective change?

Thanks for the note about the questions that are potentially culturally insulting. I actually have a wok at home so I'm gonna look into that one personally!
That is actually a really poor definition of a recession. It overlooks many macroeconomic factors that can cause severe problems. "I can't improve my economic position" seems a lot closer, while still being a bad definition, and by that definition, we are deep in a recession.
As a European I take not getting many times as expensive, like our fuel, energy and food prices. I wonder how the European cloud will fare this winter, and how many European customers we will lose.
Completely off topic, but the title reminded me of something that happened when my son was about 9yo. One day he comes in and asks me what the holes in the walls were for? Holes? What holes? So he brings me over and points at an empty phone jack. I said, "Oh! That's to plug in a phone, we don't use them." He nodded in understanding and went back to his room. A little while later he comes back with an iPhone, charge cable attached, and says, "I can't get it to work..." It was adorable. I explained that I was talking about old phones, like the ones at his abuela's house. He said, "Oh." and of course immediately lost interest.

You can see why I was reminded of it. It was, literally, an "unplugged phone mystery." I was half expecting to read a similar story. :-)
Seems that idiomatic is a matter of personal taste, used to arbitrarily accept or reject.

One way forward would be to ignore claims based on idiom, but measure how long it took to write a program that produced correct output.
Man, if social media is any indication of how ordinary people would govern, I'm not sure it's a great thing. Granted, maybe ordinary people are quite a lot more moderate or emotionally stable than the likes of Twitter and Reddit.

Yea that's a good point. The classic example is Haiti and the Dominican Republic, where the DR has trees on the border in contrast with often a bare landscape just on the other side.

The length of the campaign season matters more than the pay.

People aren't paid while campaigning, and the US campaign "season" has grown to ridiculous length. It's not realistic to work some other job while doing it anymore (unless that job is being a member of congress), so it has become quite expensive.
Trotsky explained this nearly a hundred years ago in arguing the dictatorship of the proletariat to Karl kantskys point of contention to the revolution of the working class. the Princeton study could best be summarized as scientific evidence of his conclusion

> You only want people as politicians because they feel it's their civic duty to serve their countrymen, not because it's a lucrative career.

And that's where sortition (vote by lottery) is probably the best system, combined with a way to vote to remove and "Redo lottery".

Whomever is elected by lottery would be provided a "unswayable" amount of money, basically buying corruption away. They would be set for their life.

A lottery of all eligible citizens would also have secondary effects of encouraging high education across the whole populace, so that when Joe or Jane Doe is selected, they do a good job for the citizens.

The evidence does not suggest that demand for services and experiences is up. Demand for durable goods spiked when COVID checks went out, then returned to parity with demand for services and non-durable goods.

Actually, this is only a feature Lago is providing. We have a full billing API to create usage based billing, subscription based billing and hybrid pricing. If you need to charge and invoice your clients, you don’t want to build this yourself. The invoice is generated automatically and can be downloaded from the UI or the API.

Apologies if the wok explanation came across as insensitive or racist.

The wording used was 'a wok is unwieldy and uncommon in a lot of home kitchens'.

As one of the two Asian writers who this got past, we believed that this statement was true enough for North American beginners looking to learn how to make scrambled eggs.

I have changed the copy there and endeavour to make sure that we are more culturally sensitive in the future.

Is there a way to avoid this? I can get some chopped vegetables at the grocery store, but the vast majority of vegetables are only available whole.
I met an older guy in a CS class. We did a project together and became school buddies. Before graduating I wanted to intern somewhere where I would get a lot of freedom. He was high up in a business and decided to offer me an internship.

I did a couple small projects to solve problems they were having. They were successful. I'm now pretty important to the business. I know databases of the ERP system, I have a lot of trust and basically am above the HR and have complete freedom.

When I interview no company is willing to offer the flexibility they do. So, honestly I'm not even sure how one would go about finding a gig like this.
Meta employs a class of the most privileged people in human history.

Should’ve used Zelle or cash. At least with your bank, you can apply regulatory pressures. With Stripe, you have little recourse.
It gives me a bad gut feeling when you imply that multiple instances of a service is more complex than a single instance which cannot be duplicated easily.

I also disagree that it is inherently more costly to run a service in multiple locations.
I just set up a few small sites (not live yet) on us-east-2, because us-east-1 has a poor reputation. I wanted to avoid multi-region to keep things simple, but now I'm thinking I might have to spend the additional time on it. Not ideal when there's no dedicated ops.
I didn't mean to suggest that people don't learn from videos, I think they mostly learn from video, from Julia Childs to America's Test Kitchen to youtube. I was trying to say that you get good at something by trying to do it, not by watching the video over and over again.
Wouldn't this be solved rather easily by prohibiting fund raising and using tax dollars to finance campaigns? Everyone gets the same budget? That means money has no sway over politicians and money can't influence the result unfairly.
Best take lol
While I inferred a particular angle from this comment, I realized that it actually works for folks across a broad spectrum of political leanings. It's a Rorschach test.
Especially when they are going to have to spend that much to get new hires in anyway, who still have to get caught up to speed, it seems like this would make a lot of sense.

But I can understand how it is difficult for a business leader to convince himself that this jump in cost is, in fact, required. Maybe the person will just stick around? (And indeed, they do fairly often.)
I see, I don’t know why but I was under the impression they were infinite but they apparently are not.
I feel like we must have read two entirely different articles.

The author has a very precise definition of stupidity. He very explicitly states that level of knowledge/education is completely orthogonal to being stupid. (As prevalent among Nobel laureates as it is among blue collar workers.) Stupidity, in his definition, appears to be an attitude more than anything else.
>Because the actual data is sending mixed signals. People equate recessions with job losses, but job growth is still high and unemployment remains incredibly low.

The data isn't mixed, people are just making an incorrect association.

Working more or longer isn't a good thing in its own right. In fact, it is bad it you are working more for less purchasing power.

employment growth has historically been associated with increased purchasing power, but the current situation is a deviation from this norm.

Talking about employment growth ignoring this fact is a bit of a bait and switch playing on this incorrect association.
> The algorithms seek to maximize engagement. And it turns out that rage is one really good way to maximize engagement.

I used to think this was only a property of algorithms but I'm not convinced anymore. Any number of link aggregator sites I'm on with no algorithmic surfacing of content, Reddit (at least on the old site), HN, Lobsters, Tildes, etc all have the same effect. Everyone comments on and engages with the rage inducing post. Nuanced, sanguine conversations get maybe an upvote or two but are just a few posters talking. This tracks with my experience on forums back in the '90s where huge hellthreads would spawn and have people arguing for weeks, and every archive of Usenet flamethreads that I've seen.

I don't think the algorithms are helping, but I think this is just a property of socializing in the large. Humans, when socializing in person, have a lot of context. When my friend rants "relationships are terrible they are just adults emotionally manipulating each other" to me, and I have the context of knowing my friend just had a bad breakup, I know the place this is coming from. When someone posts this on Twitter, everyone is up in arms because there's no context. There's other properties of socializing in the large that I suspect leads to the patterns we see in online discourse, but I'm beginning to think that the algorithms are the minor part.
“An outsider”? Trump is a billionaire who has been directly involved in politics for decades.
Ah. Of course I managed to make a mistake in that minuscule amount of code, = should be == of course. At least a modern compiler would have warned without extra parenthesis.
We make the whole fee calculation easy to do. If you have a paying feature, the charge related to it can be implemented in few minutes. We handle automatically the upgrades, downgrades, invoices, subscription dates and boundaries, and a lot of prebuilt charge model (graduated pricing, percentage pricing, package pricing…).
We adapt to any pricing use case easily!
Democracy is a blunt tool.

We should focus on decentralising power so as to minimise the situations in which a delegation of power and a democratic choice is needed.

>If you read my other posts,

I tend to avoid reading usernames when replying, so I possibly read them but did not realize that they were also written by you. If you've refined your viewpoint based on other comments here, specifically in regards to vaping as a smoking cessation, my reply was not necessary.
As the knowledge graph gets bigger, we're definitely going to have to find better ways to present it. The challenge is that most people don't want to see the whole knowledge graph, they want an extremely simple experience. Do you think your perspective represents something that would appeal to the mass market?

Here's the technical approach we're taking with the goal of taking a very hairy knowledge graph and turning it into a remarkably simple, even magical, user experience: https://parsnip.substack.com/p/a-new-hope

Homology search is a method to find homologous sequences, that is, evolutionary related sequences that posess a common ancestor.
This was usually done based on how identical sequences were, but newer algorithms allow to find remote homologs even when the identity between the sequences is very low.
The first step in AlphaFold is to retrieve as many remotely homolog sequences as possible to generate a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) that will be used to generate the embedding.

On the other hand, homology (or comparative) modelling is a method that generates a structural model of a query sequence based on one or more experimentally solved structure of a close protein homolog. The model generation details depend on the specific protocol but, broadly speaking, spatial restraints are extracted from the template structures and mapped to the query sequence to be modelled.

Note that AlphaFold also uses a type of geometrical restraint (pairwise residue distances) in its modelling, although they are not derived from protein structures but the MSA embeddings. Both are related but are not exactly the same.

One difference between AlphaFold and homology modelling is that the latter requires templates having a certain sequence identity with the query sequence (≥30% is the rule of thumb), while the former can have in its MSA remotely homolog sequences well below any discernible identity.
I've seen abbreviations but never code names as far as I know. The times I didn't recognize a name I was able to google and see a story about it.

People don't trust signals, because the drivers are bad, not the other way around. I drove in most European countries, I drove in America, I even drove in China and I live in the UK. By far the worst drivers. Also the most polite, will always let you in, give way, dip lights, wave etc..
Unless I'm fundamentally misunderstanding the concept of due process, I would think that the warrant's explicit language around _not_ searching the contents of the deposit boxes would be a violation of the 4th Amendment's warrant requirements (and therefore due process):

"Nests of safety deposit boxes and keys, and documents and records referring or relating to them since 2019. This warrant does not authorize a criminal search or seizure of the contents of warrant does not authorize a criminal search or seizure of the contents of the safety deposit boxes. In seizing the nests of safety deposit boxes, agents shall follow their written inventory policies to protect their agencies and the contents of the boxes. Also in accordance with their written policies, agents shall inspect the contents of the boxes in an effort to identify their owners in order to notify them so that they can claim their property;"

They were allowed to "inspect" the contents, but literally only with the goal of returning the property (which they still haven't done).

IMO, politicians are doing exactly what the people are asking for, which is spending their time virtue signalling rather than writing and negotiating meaningful legislation. Besides that, they do care about handouts, which is why we have so much pork barrel spending and stimulus checks.

It's convenient to blame money in politics, but if that were the case, Congress would at least get something done. For example, Facebook, despite being one of the most heavy lobbying spenders, has spent even more money establishing their content Oversight Board. If they could actually buy politicians, we'd have more regulation that happens to benefit big tech. Both the Republican solution of not allowing social media companies to censor content and the Democratic solution of creating more rules for moderate disinformation are beneficial to Facebook because they can offload some of the responsibility of moderation to the government.
Why haven't there been a upstart taking market share? Why do only the big players get into the game and hold similar costs?
> a) easier/cheaper to buy them, and

Sure, that's what make then pull the trigger to buy the company.

I find this hard to believe but I'm very skeptical when it comes to the narrative of the "philanthropist".
