I'm not going to accept your bet because I don't understand its conditions (and what's the point?), but I accept your challenge. Also, I'm going to f*** around bigly with floating point.

def f(x,a):
return 1 + a * sin(x / a)

Now let epsilon = 2.2204460492503133e-36. Consider f(x, epsilon).

The function should always return 1 in floating point, so any finite differencing method will estimate its derivative as 0. But over the dual numbers, the function should have f(e, epsilon) = e, where e is the dual number imaginary. In other words, the dual numbers return the correct value of the derivative at x=0, which is 1. You should be able to use any Python implementation of the dual numbers; my own one uses Sympy. Actually, you might be able to use Scipy and represent dual numbers as matrices.

Look up automatic differentiation because you're not aware of it, and it is the subject of the article. You seem to misunderstand symbol methods. The problem of finding an exact derivative at a single point is not as hard as finding the symbolic derivative everywhere. You're referring to the product rule and chain rule, but these are not needed to find derivatives at single points.
If that "delusion" were really so maladaptive it would have been outcompeted by now.
so I guess this is annual, not monthly? Or is there some other division of salary that I haven't thought of?

oh wow, I'm definitely trying ! Thanks for sharing.

edit: It removed 85mb and saves 8 seconds of build time (about 17%). Less impact in build time than I thought but still the easiest win I got lately.

“The bar also got a lot lower than back then.”

It appears GP is saying the bar for being diagnosed with a mental illness is lower today (“got a lot lower”). I am pushing back, at least where OCD is concerned.
SEEKING WORK | Europe | Remote

I'm redirecting my career path from industrial maintenance management to software development.

I've done, among other things, over 10 years of code maintenance and functions extensions in a live industrial production environments.

My current preferred tool set: Python, PostgreSQL, Django, Git, Docker, Linux. Now I prefer boring tools which allow me to concentrate on the problem at hand.

I'm open to other tools as needed.

My most recent project is Polish law change monitoring service available at https://unkot.pl. Access to the source code hosted on gitlab.com available on request.

In the past I've used go (golang), cython, neural networks with feedback loops running on CPUs, genetic programming.

This is probably the book I loved the most that was an absolute pain to read. I got no pleasure from reading the book but a lot of the concepts and ideas are great. It's just a slog.

I've heard the sequel is good but I've put off reading it for years because I don't want to go through it again.
Also a big fan of sticking to ansible and plain VMs, at least for most cases I've encountered. To me, a VM in the cloud already feels like a container and you can use the cloud provider's APIs to scale up and down virtual instances as needed

The language has shifted as well.

You’re not sad, you’re depressed.

You don’t worry, you have anxiety.

Depression and anxiety are medical diagnoses. The other are normal emotions everyone can, should, and does experience.

If you don’t ever worry or get sad about anything there’s probably something else wrong with you.

In terms of diagnoses, the DSM-4 included a “bereavement exclusion” from the depression diagnostic criteria. Thinking being if someone close to you dies a normal person almost should feel the symptoms of depression for some period of time. You don’t have depression, you’re mourning.

It was (controversially) removed in DSM-5:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4204469/

The “slap a medical diagnosis on a normal feeling” described in the article seems to have entered society across the board.
In the ideal form of net-zero, the direct air capture of CO2 is only needed to offset the hard to abate emissions—ie. jet fuel, global shipping, embodied carbon (like concrete). That future is dependent on wide scale decarbonization (in progress, albeit slowly) and, as you mention, an externally imposed requirement—from either governments or consumers.

However, that period of net-zero should be a waypoint on the path to sequestering historical carbon (the real goal) but the only way to get there is to first decarbonize everything that we can.

In a way, carbon credits/offsets might actually be a deterrent to that future. There is a notion of a “circular carbon economy” where CO2 is made into useful products in addition to sequestering for carbon credits, but you are right that the dominate use case for captured CO2 is enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Put to that end, there are very few practical long term benefits to sequestering carbon.

That said, one benefit of offsets, tax credits, etc. is funding the creation of the carbon dioxide removal technology we will need by 2050 to offset the hard to abate emissions, but that tech is only useful if we first decarbonize as it hard to imagine it can be scaled up to the 40 gigaton level based on the data today.
I was looking for a comment like this before adding my own.

I went through the first two years of a psychology degree alternately diagnosing myself with every mental illness under the sun, despite me knowing deep down that it wasn't really the case. The thing that stopped it dead was watching clinical videos of people who really did have serious mental illness. I wonder if the same would work for some of these people, presuming they're being suggestible.

I remember in particular one video of a man with bipolar disorder in a manic phase, who was in his mid-20s when the video was filmed during the late 80s, and who was convinced that he'd been the Rolling Stones tour manager in the 1960s. There was nothing anyone could say to convince him otherwise, and he had all sorts of explanations for the mismatch in dates. We were laughing a bit because it was so clearly delusional, when the lecturer pause the video and said something like "yeah, it's kinda funny, but I remember getting a call from a friend who asked my clinical opinion about the fact he thought that the adverts for a bank on TV were telling everyone he was gay." We got pretty quiet after that.

It chimes with the trivialisation of terms like OCD, which are use very filppantly, but anyone who's seen a clinical video of someone with full-blown OCD, which can be completely crippling, wouldn't use it so lightly.
> We need to teach children critical thinking skills and allow them to make their own decisions

The timescale of this process is ~15-20 years. "Critical thinking", "common sense" and "being an adult" all refer someone that has cultivated the ability to filter information independently.

I would argue that many 18+ people don't fully develop this skill. See cults, propaganda, conformity for datapoints.

I agree that we SHOULD teach children critical thinking.
But MAYBE if you give them a smartphone and social media you should expect this type of result.

In general, I think that the move from TV (where CNN had "authority") to the internet (influencers have the power) can explain some social trends that are going on. Ex. conspiracy theories are a dime a dozen these days with youtube videos slowly hypnotizing you.

LMAO I know Diablo Immortal was pay2win but it also places you against people who are as strong as yourself? What kind of devious circle is this. You pay hard cash to get stronger but that only results in you playing against people who have invested the same thing. Leading to you... having to pay more hard cash. Incredible.

I don't.

Customer support is a cost sink that usually isnt empowered to do anything. Its more PR tactic to make people feel they are "heard" without resorting to twitter.

In the email/business apps space, google is clearly not a monopoly. Presence/quality of customer support seems a very reasonable grounds to have normal competition over.
I stopped drinking tea and my daily anxiety halved :)
>Australia and Canada both have constitutions

While this is technically true, it does not appear that either guarantee the rights of citizens to speak freely, especially when the speech is objectionable. When I lament the lack of a Constitution, I lament a Constitution which permits us the same inalienable rights. Both Australia and Canada place harsh restrictions on speech.

Supercede | Software Developer (Haskell) | REMOTE | Full Time

Supercede builds industry-leading risk placement and analytics software for the reinsurance industry. We are currently a team of 26 people distributed across six countries. About half of the team are developers, all of which spend most of their time writing Haskell, Elm, and Nix. We're all-in on functional programming, and we're looking for more help.

You must have demonstrable experience building things in idiomatic Haskell, and you should have a solid understanding of how web applications typically work. You should be able to communicate clearly in English, but you do not need to speak excellent English (our team speaks Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Dutch, German, Italian, French, and more). You'll have flexible working hours and you can work from anywhere, though this is a full-time position and the expectation is that of work based on a traditional 40 hour week, with 25 days of paid annual holiday in addition to your country's national holidays.

We favour asynchronous communication, and try to hire "managers of one". We don't do daily stand-ups. We don't count your hours. We don't work weekends. We support each other in working and learning, and we have a dedicated fortnightly "Research Day" where every programmer is free to not do chores for the product, and instead investigate/learn/play with whatever technology they choose. Want to learn more about type-level programming? Property-based testing? Expert systems? Go right ahead!

Please write me a brief email introducing yourself with your résumé attached to jezen@supercede.com.
>But most people have some kind of moral and ethical code, imperfect as it may be. The golden rule is nearly universal across various moral belief systems.

I find that the people who espouse these views are usually insulated from the effects of them. Have you ever had a homeless camp near your residence? How close? How would you feel about your wife/daughter/mother being home alone near a homeless camp?

I'd love to be charitable and kind, but people have to protect themselves as well. Bringing a bunch of mentally ill drug users near your residence is a recipe for disaster. It should not be seen as some moral issue that we need to solve individually--the government and police should be able to resolve this on their own, especially considering the funding pumping into law enforcement and homeless funds. I think the big problem is we just keep creating more unaccountable programs and services instead of just giving people an SRO and a social worker. We're doing the dumbest possible thing because everyone wants to get a cut. Every other developed country has basically solved this--we could just copy a working model instead of dumping more and more money into hare-brained ideas every year that never work.

Huh. This is all about the impact on vision as opposed to imagination (or whatever it is that REM does), but that really does pose some interesting questions about long-tail impacts. Mirror neurons come to mind...
Sweden & Denmark favour high taxes and social responsibility; I'm sure you are aware but in socialist countries, healthcare, education and economic support are all provided free to every citizen, regardless of how much they earn.

Sweden & Denmark absolutely live that vision.

People get confused because they've conflated socialism and communism, where communism is a means of controlling and distributing the means of production across the people; an economic model that differs from socialism which puts the needs of the people in control of the state; but allows innovation outside of that.

Some people also get confused because they believe that anything involving a private market means Capitalism; that's not true, capitalism is a specific system where, by definition, the wealth has similar rights to the labour in how it gets paid. Some people think this is why capitalism is innovative, because it incentivises "old money" capital to invest, but it favours rewarding people who already have money, which is at odds with the Swedish model.

I think you're right that Denmark is not materially less socialist, in fact you could argue that Sweden is the less socialist one as they've been selling off their healthcare systems to private healthcare for a while now.. Which has resulted in a pretty bad healthcare system honestly.
I've worked at large tech companies where very capable software engineers struggled to install or upgrade their OS, let alone be familiar with the intricacies of Linux. I was surprised at first too, but I do think there's a large class of engineers who think about code who don't think at all about the other stuff, and engineering is broad enough that that's totally fine.

Not to mention all the non-engineers, even in tech roles like PM, design, etc.
If you want anyone to find your project, you're gonna need to at least mirror on GH regardless.

No it's not, that doesn't make any sense. Defining a standard term is nothing like selling land.
That sounds great, I've certainly too gone through a better sleep period where I focused on better sleep - no coffee for two years and lots of other measures like that. And it works. That's not a silver bullet, that's hard work. :)
Sounds all too familiar.

I had 7 or 8 managers over the past 2.5 years. I picked up and completed several extra stories over the previous couple sprints only to recieve negative feedback that it wasn't what they wanted me to work on, even though I asked them if there was anything specific they wanted me to do next and had recieved no response. Oh, and my company will not allow managers to give employees recommendations/references at all.

I think when javascript is used to build html styles you end up with lots of files full of strings and boilerplate. I noticed a similar thing when I was using pixi.js for a small 3d scene. The build output was dominated by massive strings containing all of the shader code. I think once you decide on a style for your project its a good time to fork these libraries and tear out everything you aren't using.
