Cross-functional workflows within enterprises. Developers can have their own nice, but what about working with tech-writers, oh now we need to have approval processes for third-party systems and idea-gathering from customers for pms, and integration with internal case-management for Customer support escalations and some acquisition uses a different methodology so now we merge on a single platform that contains slight variants or what really are the same states for status. And marketing needs support for the product launches, and we now integrating security scanning tools automatically filing bugs ... oh security has new process steps because we all are doing DevSecOps. And for this special process we need 3 layers of managerial approval. First it was email based, then Slack, then MS-Teams, then back to Slack. And the Old-school QA team for the hardware component has different metadata requirements and internal IT-bug tracking has different requirements than the product-engineering group. And now we want to track cloud spend so every ticket has to have a cost estimate.

The requirements change, merge, flow. In theory each department within the enterprise could have their own optimized, silo'd tool ... but then you need "enterprise integration platforms" to glue together all the workflows between them.
Are you proposing to make the internal model as robust as possible and use good apis for abstraction by domain?
I would strongly expect sunshine to be enough to make it think you have a serious fever, or a snowball fight registering as a sudden and unexpected death.

For accurate readings, one usually goes internal (sublingual, otic, anal) or quasi-internal (closed armpit). Forehead readings are limited but able to detect fevers in controlled environments. The surface of your extremities are prone to big temperature swings that are completely unrelated to health, such as when you have cold feet or hands. I'm sure you can have a serious fever without the temperature being notable at the wrist.

Act consistently with the public interest?

In my experience, any suggestion that it's important to adhere to a public specification e.g. FCC rules, is met with complete indifference. You do whatever will make your product sell. Those rules are for other folks.
So, and this is an ELI5 kind of question I suppose. There must be something going on like "processing a kazillion images" and I'm trying to wrap my head around how (or what part of) that work is "offloaded" to your home computer/graphics card? I just can't seem to make sense of how you can do it at home if you're not somehow in direct contact with "all the data?" e.g. must you be connected to the internet, or "stable-diffusions servers" for this to work?
>Their methods are many, varied and wackily named. A “death cross” is when a short-term moving average of an asset’s price falls below a long-term moving average.

I think the author is a little overly skeptical here. A moving average is by no means voodoo black magic, it's actually very simple. You take the price over the last x periods, for example 50 days, and find an average. Then you do the same with a different amount of periods, say 200 days, and then you compare that to the price. I think it's reasonable and useful to make inferences based on these three pieces of data. Is the price under the two averages? If yes, then it's likely a little low right now and might go up. Is the price way over the average price? If yes, it could go down. That, to me, is a reasonable analysis of data.

Taking it a little further, if the shorter period average is going down way faster than the longer period average, does that indicate something? Maybe that the price has been going down faster recently compared to the average of the longer period of time. Is that not a useful observation to make? If the short term average is going down so fast that it crosses the long term average, and the price is way above the two, isn't that a useful bit of information to know(that's a death cross). Perhaps you don't want to bet your entire life savings on this information, but it's also an exaggeration to claim that finding averages has no statistical merit.

If you then look into things, you'll find a lot technical indicators are derived from simple statistics and especially averages. Consider the very popular MACD, or Moving Average Convergence Divergence. A lot of people like that one, including myself, and it's made some people at least a little bit of money.

For me technical analysis is like the icing on the top of a very tasty fundamental analysis cake. You don't want a cake that's only icing, but if you do get the icing just right, then you can sell your cake for quite a bit more money.

And there's often also an approved vendor process as well. Big companies are mostly not OK with just expensing some random new supplier.

And yeah, there's a lot of paperwork but maybe you're hiring this gal because she's your sister. Maybe she's really good. Or maybe you're just funneling some money to a family member. As companies scale up they need controls for a lot of things even if they're legit 95% of the time.

And, again, not a software issue. It's a perhaps necessary bigco process issue.

Still a great and useful tool (tho over the years it became slower and slower with each release, just like any adobe product) but the export to html / air / openfl etc. are nowhere as good as the OG flash runtime of yore.

Useful for exporting movie and packaging assets / animations to then be consumed by a custom engine but not worth the effort that much when you have spine, etc. which are better supported and used in the industry.

Scaleform still seems to be used by some AAA studio (I'm always surprised to see it) but I can't imagine it they will continue to use it for long.

True, but you're strictly limited by what I assume are microscopic gate capacitances on pixels that small. The maximum number of electrons in an iphone pixel are probably less than 10k, leading to less than 7 bits of maximum theoretical entropy per px from shot noise limits. This is going to sharply curtail (no pun intended) your ability to "back out" airy disk overlap.
I think they're complaining about `this`, which I also find annoying, but don't feel the need to dress that up in fancy terms.

My issue with `this` and things like it is that the first argument (the 'object') is usually the most important thing, and it's easier to read methods if they have a name.

Ok, you can call this deixis but do you need to? Clearly not.

All those 'kazillion' images are processed into a single 'model'. Similar to how our brain cannot remember 100% of all our experiences, this model will not store precise copies of all images it is trained off of. However, it will understand concepts, such as what a unicorn looks like.

For StableDiffusion, the current model is ~4GB, which is downloaded the first time you run the model. These 4GB encode all the information that the model requires to derive your images.

Hey 3880 subs is pretty good. I'm still on 241. haha. It actually takes a lot of effort to get past 1000 subs/5000 watch hours, which is the minimum for monetization.
As someone with ~0 knowledge in this field, I think this has to do with a concept called "transfer learning" in which you once train with that kazillion of images, then use that same "coefficients" for further run of the NN.
If it’s not common, maybe it’s not common sense?
It's a thing because inheritance got out of hand.

Maybe reading the literal words, we are all a little prickly sometimes. The intent is probably a polite way of saying "he is frequently an asshole for no apparent reason".
That's exactly what Bertrand Russell had to say about stoicism and one part of why he was critical: "It is remarkable that Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius are completely at one on all philosophical questions. Although social circumstances affect the philosophy of an age, individual circumstances have less influence than is sometimes thought upon the philosophy of an individual...in bad times they invent consolations; in good items their interests are more purely intellectual." And so he goes on: "When we compare the tone of Marcus Aurelius with that of Bacon, or Locke, or Condorcet, we see the difference between a tired and a hopeful age. In a hopeful age, great present evils can be endured, because it is thought that they will pass; but in a tired age even real goods lose their savour. The Stoic ethic suited the times of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius, because its gospel was one of endurance rather than hope."

I empathize with the message here. However, a friend pointed out that their screenshot shows a reply from Apple 26 minutes after their last reply. It seems they might have forgotten about that and just been sitting there for a month.

For me, the hardest and most frustrating part of all this stuff is that Apple acknowledges the shortcomings of their app sandbox model, acknowledges they even have exceptions if you demonstrate a need, and then when you clearly explain your situation and demonstrable need, they still refuse to grant you the exception because you're not popular enough or the reviewer woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

We have built a sandboxed app that supports being a native messaging host for a companion browser extension. To do this for Chrome/Firefox you need to install a manifest file in a well known shared location on the filesystem. Because Apple does not support setting up manifests for other browsers, and especially because Safari interop works out of the box with no configuration, one would expect them to be able to grant a filesystem write permission to a specific out-of-sandbox folder (and possibly even a specific set of file names that must include your bundleid in them or something, for security). But no, we can't have nice things.

Instead we have to do this rather non-apple-esk thing of asking users to allow us to write the file after which they get presented with a standard "save file" dialog. This is way beyond silly. It's an implementation detail. It is most certainly NOT a good user experience! But no, Apple prefers a degraded user experience because of sandbox limitations that they're unwilling to work around and through with you in their review process, despite stating they have the mechanisms and capability for doing so.

Ever year it seems to become harder to build a good product on Apple platforms, at least if you indulge Apple and do it the way they want you to. Maybe Apple is loosing touch with their software ecosystem. It would not surprise me if things like Apple One are taking the business spotlight.

Yeah, I should've expanded the comment more. 150% is more reasonable. A crazy high initial request is not a request, it's just "I want you to say your price first". It almost doesn't matter if you say 200% or "50 bazillion, your turn now". It's not that they don't want you, the hiring people may just assume you're not serious and not counteroffer at all - then it's up to you to come back and update your own offer.

So why not skip that step and start more reasonable?
My point was that we should consider ethics, even if some of us have a natural tendency to only look at the technical side of our work.

I mean, USUALLY sure. There are exceptions to some extent and I've been lucky in this regard [0], but in general I'd say the problem is people just don't care. I -do- tend to shop on overall depreciation/resale value and try to order my cars in a way that while I completely intend to drive it into the ground, I will avoid any creature features that don't help with long term value or are too rich for my blood. [1]

Also while GP is somewhat overstating their case, that depreciation hit is gonna happen if you pay cash anyway. It's not 'hedging against inflation' so much as 'minimizing interest paid on depreciation'.

I will also say there are cases where perhaps it could make some level of sense. I'm kinda an odd duck and fell into this boat; My 10 year old car with age and a bad^bad oil change gets 18-24MPG for a good part of the year now, and only takes 91+. I switched to a Hybrid and the gas savings alone covers the majority of my payment.

[0] 3 of the 4 new cars I've bought fell into this range. The first was a Saturn I flew to Texas to grab, it had no A/C so I got it for a steal. The second was A car I bought 10 years ago with ~10% down was only 'underwater' for about 6 months of a 72 month loan. The latest was the start of this year, but I'm confident that even after things subside it will still hold value fairly well.

[1] Special infotainment systems, upgraded audio and remote start come to mind. People don't particularly shop for most infotainment systems on used cars. Upgraded audio is likely better handled by a trustworthy local shop if you really want it. Remote start just seems overpriced by most manufacturers, and IMO for most people (barring a medical need for the climate to be in a certain state immediately) another sign of society's environmental disregard.
Objects are a good tool.

Isolating some kinds of state in more manageable units can be very handy while remaining maintainable.

Even inheritance can be nice under the right circumstance.

Object oriented programming? An unmitigated disaster.

Markdown question:

I want to take create a chronological journal where I track tutorials I've done (and how well, etc), but I want to add some sort of a tag wherever I feel like so that with a click I can find all my entries related to (say) React, or R (statistics), and so on.

If you're reading this, and have had luck with such a tagging mechanism, please share your solution.

FOSS only, of course.
Some people have done quite well betting on horses, but from that we can't infer that it's a good investment strategy.
What you interact with as the user is the model and its weights.

The model (presumably some kind of convolutional neural network) has many layers, every layer has some set of nodes, and every node has a weight, which is just some coefficient. The weights are 'learned' during the model training where the model takes in the data you mention and evaluates the output. This typically happens on a super beefy computer and can take a long time for a model like this. As images are evaluated the output gets better the weights get adjusted accordingly.

Now we as the user just need the model and the weights!
The metadata and file names of the images in the source data set are also inputs for the model training. These keywords are common tags across images that have these characteristics, so in the same way it knows what a unicorn looks like, it also knows what a 4k unicorn looks like compared to a hyper rez unicorn.
It's possible you might not have worked in erp space, especially sustainment / maintenance (as opposed to implementation) long enough to see true customization price. I certainly didn't my first 5 years - to mis paraphrase, I was excited at all the things I could do, so I didn't bother to truly consider whether I should :). ERP's lifetime at large company is frequently decades, and their roi vs cost is similarly long.

Every. Single. Customization. You make, which makes so much sense to seemingly eagerly satisfy the user during implementation, will be a massive pain, forever, with every patch and upgrade and new functionality released by vendor in perpetuity, and will inevitably cause performance and failure issues eventually. And will only be getting more expensive and painful to maintain exponentially over many years.

Yes, you should customize erp for your very specific edge cases that you a absolutely need. But:

A) number of processes Bob from accounting or Fatima from HR believe are absolutely crucial and immutable and special and unicorn and mandatory, is way way higher than processes which actually are special and must be preserved. Personal inertia is huge. More often than not, special ways of doing things which are not your core business are an unnecessary cost, whether through erp or not.

This may seem like I'm a traditional grognard IT head who disregards users and their needs, but it's quite the opposite so let me clarify with

B) The threshold of customization at which erp no longer makes sense is in fact very very low.

If you actually, really properly are a special snowflake of a company and your convoluted hr or finance or pay processes are your key immutable competitive advantage, then don't get an erp. Other name for erp is cots, commercial off the shelf, which strongly hints as to how its meant to be used. With erp, customizations should be fought tooth and nail on every level,and that's a largely accepted industry wisdom.

I… disagree.

The problem is that we also want justice and fairness, and IMO that's not a problem, more of an advantage. But it is in conflict with the will of the people. This year's majority of the people may well be sympathetic to a NIMBY campaign, while last year a majority didn't have much sympathy for a similar NIMBY campaign in a different neighbourhood.

A just society treats both campaigns similarly, the majority in a democracy is not so constrained. The representatives often end up with the blame when this conflict has bad results.
