> The biggest issue I see is that those models (or rather their trained parameters) are usually pretty large (several GiB). So it'll take a while to set up in the browser before the evaluation can actually start. It'll also require a lot of bandwidth on both ends.

Might not be feasible due to memory constraints (I'm not sure), but browsers can load data from disk into memory without having to touch the network. So you could in theory ask the users to download the model separately, then ask them to select it from a file picker, and the browser can have access to it that way.
Thank you for sharing! This paper is absolutely amazing -- AND it came out in 1977!

Telling More Than We Can Know: Verbal Reports on Mental Processes by Richard E. Nisbett and Timothy D. Wilson

Both researchers have had amazing careers since then. Timothy Wilson's book Strangers to Ourselves is one I recommend to everyone. It is a continuation of the work in the paper you link to. Nisbett's books are excellent too; my favorite (a must-read!) is Culture of Honor: The Psychology of Violence in the South. Any student of psychology should know these works.
So if she's a puppet that can't really change things for the better, why this enormous thread with so many people gushing over her?

If she was just another paper pusher and camera model in a world filled with them (like you seem to be saying), her death isn't one of any significance to humanity.

If she was someone who could have used her influence to change things for the better, like Diana would have if she'd been alive - if the Queen was someone who could have done that and didn't, because she didn't want to risk her position, then the anger in this thread is justified and deserved.
This reminds me a lot of Jordan Peterson's argument about climate change modeling:

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/jan/27/word-sal...

Anyway, I think the main disconnect is your misunderstanding about how climate modeling works. It's much more about the physics of GHGs in the atmosphere and how those impact the global temperature and the downstream effects on local climates and weather patterns. Human activity can be summarized as: humans emitted 51 billion tons of GHGs last year and that number continues to grow.
lol, security and IT are similar here.

Not sure, but my theory is that Google SEO had to do with it after Google tried to remove false or misleading headlines around the election and afterwards. At the time (and still somewhat now), satire was/is often quite lost on Google. This presumably hurt ad revenues.

Just adding a bit about the subject at hand: I am convinced the cancer epidemic is due to us grossly misusing our biological equipment: we are meant to feast & fast, and not have insulin's anabolic effects constantly activated. Fasting is crucial for "system maintenance", via autophagy (self-eating of damaged cells). Average person constantly stimulates insulin with following the advice of eating small meals often, without even going into the content of those meals.

The GP comment is certainly not a top quality comment but there are many "positively disposed" comments of much worse "quality" that have not motivated a specific moderator response warning.

As for it being "flamebait", within this context anything that motivates this classical political battle will be a comment on the opposite side of a topic to one's own opinion. Moderation would need to be balanced in restricting such comments to effectively restrict "flamebait" - yet only comments on one side are being killed.
"having a Bitcoin is analogous to having a gold nugget in that it proves you did the work (proof of work) to get it (picked at rocks, or, expended the necessary computation cycles to guess the correct number/nonce)."

It is really not analogus. A gold nugget is something material, with a practical value. You can make electronics or jewelry out if it.

But some random "mined" numbers? Why do they have value?
They don't. Unless others accept their arbitary value. Which to me is not much different, than fiat money.

It somewhat works, if people accept the weirdness of the concept, but a intuitive understanding of value, like with gold, I cannot see.
You'll have a good chance of getting "we can't pay that, sorry, see you" back. Then if you actually want that job you'll have to walk it back and negotiate down. Not always possible, so it may not be the greatest idea to start at x2.

I didn't say:

HN's guideline on reading things charitably could have saved both of us some annoyance here. Try again. It's absurd to think I could mean the things you thought I meant.
I think this is one of those cases where optimization on the part of self-interested actors has ruined things for the rest of us.

It used to be that if one said, "allowing people to talk about obviously ridiculous things like conspiracy theories is fine, and important actually, because it's part of free speech," that would be pretty clearly true.

But at that time, the number of people actually talking about such ridiculous things was pretty small.

Since then, the number of people talking about election-related conspiracies has gone up precipitously, largely because of Trump and his supporters. Who, it apparently bears repeating, attempted an actual violent coup to force the election results to go the way they want them to, partly due to the constant repetition of the "election fraud" Big Lie.

So no, allowing these theories to propagate is demonstrably antithetical to the continued functioning of democracy.

Growing up, when I got good at something, I was able to channel the gains in productivity into more free time. This gave me ample incentive to get good at things.

In the workplace, if you get good at something, you are generally expected to work the same fixed amount, which means the company reaps most of the rewards of your gains in productivity.

On the SE thread, people recommend rewarding Bob by giving him more work, a promotion, or more money. One person suggests allowing him more free time. Were I Bob, I’d want more money and a promotion, but most of all I’d want more time. But that just isn’t how things are done in most workplaces.

I think most people in Bob’s shoes would just pretend that they are busier than they are.

No coincidence. It's because right wing politicians decided to align themselves with corporate interests rather than embracing the idea of decentralized energy independence.

Having a more accurate image of what is happening is important. I think many people imagine the planet becoming an inhabitable desert, all life dying and oceans boiling off. This is a wrong image and causes unnecessary pain and anxiety. I know a young person who killed themselves because of climate anxiety.

Reply to the heckler veto and terrorism: no, that should not be acceptable, and yes, this is like surrendering to terrorism.

First, it's not the main cause.

Second, the main job of the government is to ensure stable society. I'm pretty sure the consensus on crypto isn't 'lets make everything more stable', rather the opposite. I'm not saying that they're right, and in an utopia without bad actors, they would be absolutely wrong. It's more complicated than that though.
> In 5-7 years, we will be talking about ending the use of Javascript on the Frontend

The same prediction has been made for the last 25 years. Having seen the rise and fall of VBScript, Flash, Silverlight, Java applets, and countless others, I would not be so blasé as you about the imminent demise of JavaScript. There is a profoundly strong possibility that you are dead wrong.
It's a fine line between fear and reassurance. The first time I did an ultra event my wife and I didn't even consider that I wouldn't have cellular connectivity in southern Georgia. When it took longer than I told it would (because, of course it did) she got worried because it appeared I was stopped and not moving for a long time. She was about to call the race organizer when I finally got cell coverage again and texted her.

After that I agreed to buy a Spot device which is very expensive, bulky, and the interface (at least 4 years ago) isn't great. But it shows her my location anywhere in the world. The iPhone 14 does the same thing and it's just included.
My experience with Airpods Pro has been excellent for what I originally bought them for, listening to music. However, I later (after the warranty period, naturally) started trying to use them for calls, and noticed something I’m not sure is covered by this program: Occasional, random “blips” where there’s some kind of discontinuity in the sound for ~200ms, with a ~100ms offset between the left and right channels. It’s annoying enough that I take them out before a call or meeting.

I had a tough enough time describing it just now (it’s the sort of problem that is inherently un-Googleable), but has anyone else experienced this, and have you had any luck with the service program?
> You have to judge Rust’s success against the unsafe code it occasionally forces you to write (you don’t get to hand wave it away).

Agreed.

> I really don’t like Rust’s allocation story though.

I presume this is because of the lack of ergonomic handling of OOM? Only time I've run into OOM was when training deep learning models (in Python backed by C++) on a GPU, but if I were to do that in Rust, I'm pretty sure I'd be able to avoid the memory leaks that caused OOM since allocations in a deep learning training loop are almost always deterministic.

So I would love to learn about the domains where you think OOM is a huge issue (apart from kernel code, which I'm already familiar with).

Btw, thanks for all the replies! I'm learning with every one.
"Revealed preference" is about revelation of your preferences through your actions, not about what you say. Politicians around the world have decided, through their policies, that grid stability and increasing energy availability is not important. Gavin Newsom has preferred to have you suffer through the hottest summer on record (and he knew the temperature was going to rise) rather than build a nuclear power plant. Angela Merkel prefers that you suffer through winter rather than recondition an old nuclear power plant. This is why it is "revealed" preference: it's not about what you say you prefer, it is about what your actions show that you prefer.

Edit: They also prefer that to coal power, or any other course of action.
NB: You are using a non-standard definition of "electoralism".

Democracy is not optimal for decision making (far from it), but at least it does allow the activists to have boots on the ground. Under other forms of government, activists tend to go more like IEDs on the ground.

Still, considering the worst-case scenarios, if we're going to go authoritarian (a big IF!), I'd rather get there instead of being decimated by global warming rather than after.
> ERP isn’t cheap. A large multinational company may spend $100 million to $500 million in total on implementation: $30 million in software license fees, $200 million in consulting fees, millions for hardware, and millions more to train managers and employees. A full implementation takes four to six years. A CEO of a large chemical firm was quoted as saying, "competitive advantage in this industry might just come from doing the best and cheapest job at implementing SAP.”

At these kinds of numbers, I've got to ask a genuine question here: what's the benefit of using SAP as opposed to rolling your own solution?

From reading some of the other comments here, it sounds like getting your business to integrate with SAP involves trying to fit a lot of square pegs in round holes and doesn't always succeed in the end anyways.

At these levels of stratospheric costs, it seems like it would often be cheaper and less risky to simply use your standard software stack of choice and build a custom web app over a database that mirrors your existing business processes perfectly, and then transform/integrate those processes over time as needed for increased efficiency.
I personally know 2 people who suffered from a bad trip. One who thought demons were out for them for about a month and another who just had some wild mood swings for a couple weeks afterwards. Both were temporary but the effects of a bad trip are no joke.

There's one other extreme example where someone I'm acquainted with did a lot of psychedelics over the course of a summer who seems permanently changed (although not ill or non-functioning in any way) but there's too much that could've happened outside the drug use that summer that could have affected him for me attribute those changes to drugs (although many other friends did).

Mentioning Greenland ice sheet in this context is always a bit of a red herring.

It is important to note that in the language of these simulations no "overshoot" is included in the temperature trajectory. A 1.5°C global warming is talking about the long term (millenial timescale) stable temperature we reach after our little "experiment".

If we can "quickly" (a few hundred years) return to 1.0°C or even less warming, compared to pre-industrial levels, these tipping points have not actually happened yet. (https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-1418830/latest.pdf summarizes this very well)

Nico Wunderling shows that while for some systems (like the Amazon rain forrest) peak temperature (even over only a few years) is most important, for slower systems like the Greenland ice sheet the target, long-term temperature is most dominant.

Priotizing the most urgent matter should therefor lead us to talk about the quickly acting tipping points, often related to biological ecosystems. For those it is most important to actually stay below 2°C of warming. For the Greenland ice shield there is ample time after the year 2100 for us to prevent the worst.

You might want to try to learn “circular breathing” which is the technique used to make a continuous sound while playing a didgeridoo.

You can learn with a straw and a glass of water so no need to find or purchase a didgeridoo, though they are fun to play.
it's still friction when it's a habit, there's a cognitive overhead to tracking that every time you make a change.
There were similar articles when Apple launched the iPhone exclusively on AT&T. We can clearly see now that a) Apple had no interest in controlling the network provider (many people thought they would eventually launch their own MVNO or even network), and b) the overall effect was hugely positive even for networks considered “competitors” at the time, like Verizon or T-Mobile.

The iPhone drove demand for mobile data through the roof, which in turn made network operators lots of money and opened up market space for new investment and lots of new handset competitors.

I bet that over time, we’ll see similar results here. Apple will be happy to buy satellite connectivity from anyone with birds, including SpaceX. This feature will work best the more satellites it can talk to. And their marketing of the feature will help competitors by driving up overall demand.

All that said, I question the total available market for this feature. Most folks who buy new phones spend most of their time near places with cell connectivity. It seems like the old fixed wireless broadband market: sounded good on paper but most customers were already passed by cable, copper, or fiber.

I have to wonder if Apple knows something we don’t. 5G is going to use smaller cells both to increase bandwidth and to compensate for the greater interference with higher frequency bands. I wonder if Apple is introducing satellite connectivity because they expect the overall cellular coverage footprint to decrease.

The new tools we have at our disposal are amazing. Of course they are better. But they are just tools. They don’t solve any problems relating to interpersonal communication any more than a hammer solves building a house.

It’s the job of a manager to work that out. There is no formula. It’s not even possible to write one down. That’s the point.

> Uncertainty does not mean things will get worse. It only means we know less and have less control.

People naturally loath feeling out of control. Sometimes control is an illusion, other times it has a solid foundation and is not a mirage. The trick is to recognize real control and see some value in that. We cod ourselves when control is an illusion.
Before the pandemic 2 day shipping was really 2 days most of the time for me. I saw the regression happen around the time that Amazon announced that people in a few anointed zip codes would be getting faster shipping. (Say, Washington, DC so your legislator gets fast shipping and thinks his constituents are getting fast shipping too.)
It's right there in the name. They're not exactly hiding the fact that they've wrapped up their climate and social goals into it. The Green New Deal was essentially nothing more than the democratic socialists' platform written down in the form of a non-binding resolution.
