I recently bought a wetsuit and it had GIANT zippers. I love levi's button fly jeans but giant zippers like that would be kind of cool too.
When I first learned about how privileged ports worked, I thought a better system would be to have per port security that resembles filesystem security. That is, each port would have an owner that can decide which users may use the port. A program could run before starting network services that would load the security information into the kernel, and equivalents to chown and chmod would be available to update the persistence file and the kernel in tandem (or separately).
> At the very least, tax payers need to stop bailing out student loan debt while simultaneously funding multiple annual week-long conferences in Hawaii and Europe for professors who scoff at their teaching assignments.

I think this is missing the forest for the trees. These aren't the reason schools cost so much and in turn why student debt is so high. Meeting with other scholars internationally has been happening for over a hundred years. European schools often travel to America a lot because conferences are often here, and their costs aren't what American universities are. Despite having similar levels of research output. The high cost is for other reasons. This also isn't why professors ignore their teaching requirements (find time to do both research, which is the higher priority, and teach. You sure can't in 40hrs)

As to the rest of the comment, I am in a lot more agreement with. I don't even think grad student pay needs to even be that high, it would just be nice enough if I didn't need to rely on internships for my cost of living. If I had enough money to pay off my undergrad loans instead of letting them rack up tens of thousands of dollars more.

But one thing I would highly argue, is that research is investing in your own country. Academia is a common place for innovation to be derived from. It is no surprise given you put a bunch of smart people together that are passionate about learning that they make new things. Especially considering how research is literal innovation. I think there's a large argument to be made about how this is a national security issue, and can be justification for diverting military budget for non-weapons based research. War is about economics after all. Really it is about a lot of things besides the actual fighting parts. Innovation has been a key element in America's (and many others) success. It is weird to think that we wouldn't place this as one of our highest strategic assets.
Please make your substantive points without fulminating, regardless of how wrong other people are or you feel they are.

> You don’t buy your jeans and jackets by looking for their letters on that pull. Likewise, you almost certainly wouldn’t nix a garment purchase because the zipper isn’t YKK.

This is partially true. YKK has tremendous brand loyalty among people buying expensive backpacks. If you’re spending $100 or more, it gives you a lot of peace of mind to know that the zipper won’t fail.

I ended up buying one last month. One of the reasons was that it promised YKK AquaGuard zippers for the laptop compartment.
For you to win more than 50% of the time requires that others lose more than 50% of the time. Which sucks.

But what's more important, is that if you apply the same logic to other players from 1 league higher than your real ELO - you should be the one losing over 50% of the time to make them happier :)
Feel free to correct me if I interpreting this wrong, but I believe this is an area that Android is better in.

iOS 12.5.6 patches notes indicate this is merely an update to WebKit. The latest Android Webview, which coincidentally also released today, supports way back to Android 6.0. It is half the download size, gets day-1 patches, and doesn’t require a OS level reboot to install.

To further put this into context: the Nexus 5 (2013) still supports the latest web browser security patches. Same as iOS 12.5.6 running on an iPhone 5s (2013). But unlike the iPhone it didn’t forego a year of browser updates to accumulate security vulnerabilities.

Are you aware that this analogy originated in a supreme court case where it was used to support restricting the speech of anti-war protestors during WW1?

“Fire in a theatre” is a great example of using a reasonable sounding analogy to support behaviour (prosecuting anti-war campaigners) that today we judge very poorly.
That's the equivalent of "just run with sudo". People don't want to deal with different configurations, policies, etc. So to provide a "one-click" Installation, they'll just change the whole environment to whatever they think they need. Good luck installing multiple such programs.
macOS definitely has its own bugs, I’m not siding with Apple because I like them or anything like that.

I waste countless hours each week just responding to emails and explaining to people how what’s happening with their colors and brightness is caused by buggy Gamma implementation in a macOS framework, or how BlackOut (https://lunar.fyi/#blackout) is so unstable sometimes because of unreliable mirroring APIs, and of course I bump into the resolution and wake/reconnection problems you mentioned as well.

Especially on Apple Silicon where the Display Coprocessor is still in its infancy, they still have a lot of work to do.

Yes, you are right that MCTS (or some search at least) is an important factor in addition to NN based eval.

If you mean this for "classical algorithms" then sure.

But in the context of AI "classical algorithms" is more like logic programming (eg Prolog) or similar in the "cognitive programming" vein that led off this discussion. I don't think these types of classical algorithms are competitive.
I remember when I was migrating projects from svn to git, I was also concerned about the difficulty in telling order of commits at a glance.

Turns out it ultimately doesn't matter, and after nearly 15 years using git, I have not once cared about ordering of commits.
And was, and still is, frequently mischaracterized by critics as “all the bacon you want”, failing to mention the core tenant of “healthy natural greens and unprocessed meats”.

Only people without experience in semiconductor manufacturing imagine that it is possible to copy and paste a CMOS manufacturing process.

Even with perfect knowledge about how a process is done at TSMC, implementing it in another fab with different equipment requires a very large amount of work done by very competent engineers, to substitute some process steps and tweak the technological parameters for the others.

Someone who succeeds to reproduce a stolen manufacturing process is very likely able to further develop such a process on their own.

Even within a single company, i.e. when having all the technical documentation and when having continuous access to all the people working there, it is extremely challenging to build a second semiconductor plant that will be able to make the same chips as a previous plant, with the same manufacturing process.

It took Intel many years of huge efforts until they have perfected a methodology to "copy exactly", to be able to build additional fabs for expanding the production of an already existing processor.

Democracy dies in darkness...
For all of the supposed training Spartans had, they held military domination for less than half a century (counting the conclusion of the Peloponnesian War in 404 BCE to their defeat at Leuctra in 371 BCE. The image of their training comes from non-Spartan sources centuries after their Golden Age. Athens maintained naval domination without such "training." Rome, too. But I digress.
The real point of this is that the most rigorous training doesn't have to involve life-death situations based on infection, PEDs, or other incidents off-course. The article here doesn't seem to focus on deaths occurring in the midst of the course, ie, during the training program itself (eg, drowning or severing a spinal chord during action).
I think there's debate for the merits of the training, but leaving that aside, the idea of monitoring these warriors when they're "at rest" (in quotes of course), when it's both feasible and does not interfere with the training itself, seems more than fair. Heck, between treating infections and suffering withdrawal, they probably should receive treatment as part of their survival training...why shouldn't that be good practice in the field?
Google operates a numer of stores for books, movies, music, apps, electronics and more.

But that being said, I meant the "and" following the statement quoted to be an "or".

The cliche of "if you aren't the customer, then you're the product" leaves out the important detail that you can always be both.

Some thoughts I get once I think about this.

All marketing and design stuff will move to cheap labour countries. The company in the emerging markets will employ 1000s of people who will get the business context from people .

They will employ all these people with AI tools to get creative and generate multiple options to be sent back to main office.

To make better AI, they will need better data. I can see many Mturk kind of gamification and crypto level stuff driving millions of people to tag data .AI will get multiple different inputs for a same image and then AI can keep improving on top of that.
Thank you! This is like a founding work of Marx?

IIRC, svn was marketed as "CVS done right" [1], which meant devs who were exploring alternatives to CVS didn't have to worry about svn's learning curve.

So, I think inertia may have been a huge part of why adoption of svn was so good compared to git that has a steep learning curve, even today.

Note that this appears to be the same CDC methodology that was found to be misleading in this Stat News piece (i.e. same site as this post) from 2021:

https://www.statnews.com/2021/02/25/cdc-one-year-decline-lif...

(it's literally the same publication from the CDC, just a year later)

At that time, the CDC announced a dramatic decline in life expectancy by extrapolating one-year changes in death rates over the entire expected lifetime of someone born in 2020. This makes small differences look huge. But of course, that's not realistic at all -- we had a significant short-term change in certain age groups (mostly elderly).

When you calculate the impact on life expectancy without assuming that every year after 2020 will look just like 2020, the change is only a few days.

You'd have to compromise not only the root keys just to get into my infrastructure, but sign all the zones from there downwards, and intercept all DNS traffic leaving that server in the first place. That's secure enough for me.

How many sites / platforms are you planning on syndicating to?

If I were to do this, what I'd want is a tool, probably shell-based, which would generate the syndication content in a suitable format for sharing elsewhere. I follow a format for posting to both Mastodon and Diaspora* that tends to follow Jacob Nielsen's "microcontent" suggestions. Typically:

Title

> Brief call-out text. Not necessarily the first line of the piece.

<url>

#TopicHashtags #BlogHashtag

For a shorter-format platform (e.g., Mastodon, microblog similar to Twitter), the goal is for a shorter posting, typically ~250 -- 500 characters.

For a longer-format platform, and Diaspora* is somewhat similar to Facebook in that regard, I might include 2--3 paragraphs rather than just one. But in general, keep it short and punchy.

Reddit would be similar to the last, or I might syndicate the entire post there. (I've largely curtailed Reddit usage however.)

Images often help sell or brand posts. I don't have a good way of producing or selecting those, though you might want to think about it.

My goal isn't huge reach, it's intelligent discussion. Even on platforms that are small and modest by current standards, I tend to find at least some of that.

Once I've written the piece, I'll typically assemble those bits manually, and share them to a couple of sites. It's a few minutes, and done perhaps a few times a week. The overall burden is pretty low.
My DNS zones are not hosted on those servers, Google Cloud DNS does the dnssec signing, and there is a breakglass key installed on there too that when used automatically sends alerts out.
What do people USE from those conference goody bags?
This one:

> An email address like ^_^@example.com or +&#@example.com is invalid

Is basically a self fulfilling belief - enough systems will reject such an address that it’s effectively unusable.
It would be rude of me to decline such an offer ;)
Lists like these would be better with some more explanations for the less obvious bullet points. For instance, when/why would an email have multiple From addresses?
I get the feeling from this comment that tech interviewers would be very upset with how I write scripts in research. Part of the reason I will never shift to developer as a job is that the interview process is ridiculous. In universities, the uni hiring process is so imposing on the researcher's time that they just hire people they meet through informal processes outside the formal system. The informal system is usually a single interview, send your resume through, and the researcher checks your references to make sure you aren't lying scum.

As already mentioned in neighboring comment, these languages give you control over data layout. But what's really powerful - is that control over layout opens up a possibility of using SIMD instructions, which by itself may have 10x speed up over optimized scalar code in the same languages, speed up over JS is, of course, greater.
