We absolutely should fear the world. I know a friend who got COVID just because he took his mask off and someone came down the side walk and passed him. Pedos are stalking their prey with apps now. Kids are being abused by apps which they all have easy access to! There is no more important time than ever than now for parents to properly teach their kids how to be safe.
Because most people equate value with output instead of focusing on outcomes and impact, and output is easiest to measure in hours worked (it's not actually, but people incorrectly think it is)
Yeah, but not usually easy enough that you can make hundreds/thousands of them quickly for a single purpose and then throw them away.

Also, as a slight tweak, I'd hope that this authentication scheme would only admit legal companies that are at least a week old. People who do these sorts of bulk-registration attacks tend not to be patient people, willing to wait around for their credentials to gain reputation before using them. They create them and then try to use them right away. Whereas no real company would be signing up for most B2B services in its first week of legal existence. (Google Workspace? Sure. Accounting software? Probably not.)

> Textbooks still focus things like von Neumann's ability ability to multiply large digit numbers in his head as a proxy for his math proficiency.

Do you realize how few Pixel phones Google sells?

Google sold only 1.2 million Pixel phones last quarter in the US

https://9to5google.com/2022/05/19/pixel-6-us-market-q1-2022/

Compared to Apple’s 20 million

While Google doesn’t break out sales of Pixels. The best estimate I could find is around 2.5 million a quarter globally.

https://9to5google.com/2022/05/11/the-pixel-6-sold-more-than...

Or about the number that Apple sells in 3 days.

The US market is 3rd largest behind India and China or 4th if you count the EU as one market.

But in the US, iOS has about a 60% market share and it dominates the high end. People who are buying cheap $261 or less Android phones aren’t looking for performance.

Not to mention that Google is non existent in China - the worlds largest market.

Different people have different relations to work in different stages of life. E.g. it makes sense to work your ass off while saving for downpayment for a home. Or saving for XYZ. Same people may scale down when kids come up.
I agree, I know eventually the datalist won't lag on scroll with even just 100 items in their datalist control, and that they'll name their dropdown picker to something other than "-webkit-calendar-picker-indicator" since it's misleading https://jsfiddle.net/klesun/mfgteptf/ If I sound passive it's because I assumed a native control/component would be performant and switched out a lot of controls for it only to have to revert back to a custom solution. But ultimately they will be fixed and it'll happen to us transparently which is nice.
You shifted the goalposts into a false dichotomy about "public vs. private" and the concept of de-stigmatization. I am saying the entire premise is bunk, there is not only "private" and "public".

There is clearly a definition of "public" that involves a limited, semi-unrestricted number of like-minded people in a safe setting without tools to record behavior for eternal and unlimited rebroadcast. You do not acknowledge this; you are talking in binary.
It's insane to me how fast this is moving. I jumped through a bunch of hoops 2-3 days ago to get this running on my M1 Mac's GPU and now it's way easier.

For people asking about the salary: yes it is per month. Also compare it to Brazilian reality: median programmer salary here is, according to a quick google search: "The estimated salary for a computer programmer is $62,420 per year in Brazil, IN.", which comes to around 10-12K euros a year. My experience when I was a developer is really around that value. Getting 1.6K euros a month is a VERY good initial salary in Brazil, specially if you live in low cost of living areas like Northeastern backlands.
People have chosen to pick the easier battle of remote work instead of pushing for shorter work days or weeks directly.

I finally got this book a couple of years ago. "MIT Project Athena: A Model for Distributed Campus Computing"

I really thought AFS, DCE, and SSI (single system image) were going to take over. It was kind of depressing when I got a job and everything was NIS/NFS and we manually logged into a machine and started a job.

Then we got clustering software like LFS to distribute jobs but I thought the dynamic process migration using checkpoint / restart kind of stuff would take over but it seems to be more trouble than it is worth.

At work we would always run stuff off a powerful 4 to 16 CPU Sun and display to our cheaper SPARCstation 5 or Linux desktop via X11.

I will say it is great now to have a virtual desktop session Exceed/NoMachine/X2go and be able to go home and connect to it and have all my windows in the same place just like when I left. I've got X2go set up at home so even when I travel I can get a desktop at home if I need it.

Set up an ngrok or localtunnel and they can see updates you make for the app live. During lockdown I worked with our UX designer like that, hashing out some UI details.
Why not a one day weekend? How is three days any less absurd and arbitrary than two?

Frankly, given where we are at as a society in terms of labor and productivity relative to demand, it seems like now isn’t the time to be pumping the brakes. The basis of fully automated luxury communism has not yet been delivered and won’t be for a while; Europeans will likely freeze this winter and even in the US, if I call 911 I’m lucky if the wait time is less than 10 minutes. We still need humans working, as much as it pains me to say it.

Maybe a better approach than specifying an arbitrary number would be to have full flexibility.

Example: I work hourly at a software company. Some days I work 12 hours. Some days I work 3.5. If I’m not going to be productive that day, I just don’t work (this is to my employer’s benefit, because I’m paid by the hour). If I’m on a roll, I keep on rolling. Some days I plan for 9 hours then leave at 6 because my focus is shot. Others I think it will be 5, then leave after 10.

I get to use my time as I see fit, the employer doesn’t deal with me wasting time in the office unproductively, and on net I think I’m as productive if not more than my coworkers.

In jobs where you need time-based coverage, an Lyft-like bidding system to get a wage premium would probably make sense and let people self-sort based on desire to work and schedule preferences.

Why replace one arbitrary system with another?
Arrive Logistics | 2x Mid Full Stack Javascript Engineer (Special Projects) | Hybrid (Chicago) | Full Time

At its' simplest, Arrive is software sitting people who have things to ship and the people that can ship it. Quickly growing and major hiring sprees. Recession/COVID hasn't impacted us. Great environment, tons of benefits, tight knit team, actual career progression, and you can impact at multiple levels the company and yourself.

You'd join a small special projects team that works on special projects. Shocking I know. We solve the tough problems and high value missions that push forward our business AND engineering org.

We work in React/Node/Express with a healthy dose of Typescript, PSQL and Azure. Ideal person is 2-4 years in and ready to jump into the deep end right away. Full stack position but we're happy to teach if you're newer to one side or the other. You'll take on the hard stuff, grow your career, and have the mentoring & coaching support you need. You'll need to be ready for ambiguity at times and getting a handle on it. You own the problems but the team and myself are there to support you too.

You are correct. It should have had bipartisan support.

But, of course, it had to be politicized. And few understood the issue, so they made up their own straw men.
A single company dominating an industry is the definition of horizontal integration. You seem to be confusing what the two terms mean.
You spend an awful lot of time defending actual nazis. Perhaps you should ask yourself why you feel the need to do that?
This model was mostly trained on 512x512 so you should stick to approximately that size.

Use external upscalers like RealESRGAN, SwinIR or BSRGAN or GFPGAN (faces).

Alternatively use hacks like txt2imghd to get it to natively create 1 MP images.
Political polling has consistently been skewing inaccurately favorable to liberal positions. To the point that even the most reputable pollsters are having to have their results "de-skewed" to have any predictive power in actual elections.

Given that there is likely an industry-wide sampling error when it comes to political topics, I wonder how much to take these even more casual-level surveys.
Exactly the same here. Every once in a while I think "let's see if Google has anything better for this query", and it never does.
They aren’t just going to give you a free day off. There would be a commensurate decrease in your pay. I don’t find the 5 days/week to be “irrational”, “irrational” to whom? It’s completely rational from an employers perspective that they have a job to fulfill and it requires employees to complete the job. If they have people working 4 days /week, they need coverage for the other days. It’s not rational for the customers either, who want everything now. I think you need to get out of the Silicon Valley bubble and see what most people do for work. Insurance claims and other service type things don’t just happen 4 days/week, meaning they would have to hire more workers to accommodate. What will end up happening, is they will just make everyone part time. Be careful what you wish for.

I knew a kid who would practically melt down doing math homework a 8 years old. Originally contemplated a career in music or art. Somewhere along the way something clicked, and now they’re applying to engineering programs for college.

I was also about eight when I figured out how to enjoy math, and I think it had something to do with realizing the teachers aren’t authorities. There is no “way” to teach things and you don’t have to like their strategies for teaching it.

That love for math came at the same time I started running a dialog in my head, stepping out of myself, observing my own mind, and being my own coach.

Years later I encountered this idea in the context of meditation and mindfulness, and while I had always felt like maybe I was doing something others were not, the ways that mindfulness sometimes belabors the point made me realize that maybe there are quite a lot of people who don’t figure this out.
You're either misreading every comment intentionally, or really dense.
... and then we get to core issue. Some people don't want 80% worktime for 80% pay, but 80% worktime for 100% pay :) What if many people will keep working 100% time but now get 125% pay? Inflation happens and we're back at square 1.

In Part 1 of our series on Fog Data Science, we saw how when you give some apps permission to view your location, it can end up being packaged and sold to numerous other companies. Fog Data Science is one of those companies, and it has created a sleek search engine called Fog Reveal that allows cops to browse through that location data as if they were Google Maps results.

In this article, we’ll be taking a deep dive into Fog Reveal’s features.

Related to this, deeply focused on the American experience:

The Coddling of the American Mind

> (...) ideas that have become increasingly woven into American childhood and education: What doesn’t kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. These three Great Untruths contradict basic psychological principles about well-being and ancient wisdom from many cultures. Embracing these untruths—and the resulting culture of safetyism—interferes with young people’s social, emotional, and intellectual development. It makes it harder for them to become autonomous adults who are able to navigate the bumpy road of life.

> Lukianoff and Haidt investigate the many social trends that have intersected to promote the spread of these untruths. They explore changes in childhood such as the rise of fearful parenting, the decline of unsupervised, child-directed play, and the new world of social media that has engulfed teenagers in the last decade.

It doesn’t just have to be severe disability. I’m pretty sure I’ve got what is now called NVLD (because my son is diagnosed with it and I share most of his symptoms). It doesn’t cause general intellectual issues, in fact I scored above 130 on the WISC IQ test as a kid. But one of the things it does cause is poor working memory. Trying to keep numbers in my head in order to calculate things is pretty much impossible. Give me calculator and I have no issue with the higher math concepts. But leave me on my own and I’ll give you the wrong answer due to bad calculation every time.

Anyway, this all led to me doing very poorly in math at school, and it’s entirely because my brain just isn’t good at it. Luckily these days the educators are smarter and my son has always been allowed a calculator for math class.

The core issue is that browsers were not made to provide the sophisticated features we require these days. Because of this fundamental problem, you can't build something like Gmail or Spotify without increasing the complexity of development exponentially.

> [stereotypes] are effectively a useful heuristic that just happens to sometimes misfire

They don't happen to sometimes misfire. They are a very poor predictor of the behavior of individuals within the group you're stereotyping. And in your day-to-day life, you're pretty much always dealing with individuals rather than an entire class of people.

This is significantly complicated when considering that stereotypes weren't created in a vacuum, either. Sometimes they are the result of some statistical phenomenon (which still doesn't mean they are good predictors of individual behavior), but often they are the result of historical prejudice. One easy example is that there are lots of stereotypes about Jewish people, many of which involve money or some sort of secret societal control. Those are categorically false, and have been tied to age-old antisemitic sentiments and humans' natural fear of groups of "others".

Some are also self-fulfilling. If 50 years ago a bunch of the population believed that a certain class of people were more likely to commit crimes, and as a result more of those people tended to be arrested, then looking at those statistics today in isolation seems to "prove" the point that this segment is more dangerous. Whereas in reality the reason the statistics are this way is largely because of the prejudiced belief.
Most advances in labor rights came about as a result of hard work: blood, sweat, and tears. Not, it turns out, this particular one!

The five-day work-week came about because Henry Ford declared it to be so in 1926, and wasn't made any sort of law until 1939.

Ultimately, the decision to move to four-day work weeks can only be made by CEOs or equivalents, and while some have, most haven't. At my previous company, the head of HR proposed it, the CTO agreed, and it went to the CEO, who said no. He didn't want the CTO org to have benefits the rest of the company didn't have, and didn't want to extend a four-day work week to all departments.

When they continue to have trouble filling open job positions because they aren't competing will in the market, perhaps he'll change his mind.

Because 5 (or 6 or 7) day workweeks, all-nighters, crunch-time, etc are all badges of honor to far too many people.
Pretty funny to call Israel an major ally of the US. Because most of the problems the US has in that part of the world are because of that alliance in the first place.

Not mention Israels extremely damaging influence on US domestic politics. Israel working together with Neocons to push the US into some of the worst foreign policy choices since Vietnam. And that's just one aspect of the problem. The list goes on and on.

If Israel is a major ally, then I think the US would be much better of with fewer allies.
Sure, if I insult my neighbour, I exercise free speech and create a toxic social environment. But how does that relate to the phenomenons I outlined to contextualize the toxicity I'm referring to?
The thing is why are we more scared these days? Did our parents care less for our health and safety? Or, perhaps they were more ignorant of the world as a whole and blissfully raised a family? Cuts, bruises and maybe broken bones are part of growing up and learning.

These days "media", meaning news and social media, seem to act as more as an anxiety pipeline than an information service. I also feel it forms a violence feedback loop by fueling peoples fears until the mentally unstable among us feel so cornered they lash out violently like a trapped animal. Of course this is on purpose because information is boring and they needs advertising revenue. Anxiety makes more money. Seems coincidentally the perfect time to decriminalize weed.
But there is no soul if we are all machines. There is no heaven. You just die and there will be a black screen.
This isn't reddit or HN where the content is purely user driven, this is a website that publishes what they themselves choose to publish, and we're free to judge them for that holistically.

One suspects that if an author submitted an article denying the holocaust, the website in question would refuse to publish it.

They can be judged by what they publish, and they acknowledge this by not publishing everything that's proffered to them.
I guess that "about" is doing a lot of work here. Like maybe it's 1.74^3.

Plugging some numbers into wolfram alpha, a 90,000 kg object (about 12 cubic meters of iron, for example) moving at the reentry velocity we'd expect from lunar orbit (10 km/s) would have about the equivalent kinetic energy of a 1kT nuke, which is quite small.

You'd have to lob a really big rock at those speeds to get to the megaton range. (Or from interstellar distances, since energy scales with v^2.) Seems infeasible for a near-future lunar mining op. But it also demonstrates how powerful nuclear weapons are.
