I've heard variations on it many times, usually by the people who frame it entirely as "right to choose" (-> "if you're not capable of getting pregnant you have no right to input on this"). I get what they're going for, conceptually, but wow that is not how you get allies.

It turns out assholes come in all genders.
Thanks for answering questions!

Are the example given in the blog post considered zero-shot learning?

Was the model trained on the websites in the examples given (e.g. on the Redfin site)?

I wonder what can be generalized from this experience to empower workers in other industries. My guess is that the tradesmen you worked with have negotiating power because they can find another GC. That relies on there being many competing companies. That can only happen in industries with low start-up costs and small economies of scale.

Railway operation has huge start-up costs and large economies of scale. I think a long term solution depends on the nationalization of track or at least the separation of train and track ownership, with track operators required to provide nondiscriminatory access. Not gonna happen but one can dream.

Again, all guesses, but I'd like to hear what someone more knowledgeable has to say
I think that you answered your own question. You uploaded a picture of your non-missing dog and it found many very similar looking dogs.
`f` behaves just like closure. It can even be assigned to a variable.

def f(x): x = 2 # <- this `x` is the same `x` as in the argument, it can be access via locals() internally

You can even assign `f`. For example, `function = f`.

Python is call by reference. Change my mind. `def f(x): x[0] = 1` will manipulate whatever object you pass to it.
The things people do in there are sometimes smelly or splashy so a closed door is preferred even when you are all alone at home
Many people do this when driving a truck when turning 90 degrees to offset the small turn radius, but I have also seen people in cars do it, which is dangerous for the people in the next lane. I had always wondered where that behavior came from, but now I realize that they probably are motorcycle drivers.
> What are we going to do, start getting rid of free markets?

This is a standard response to markets societies wants to apply boundaries to, yes. Obviously for illegal ones (slaves, child porn, hard drugs) and also regulated ones (medical advice, nuclear weapons).

> in any market there's winners and losers.

Most examples I gave above all have one thing in common: there is a moral objection to the free market due to the vulnerability of one of the parties.

This is an issue that needs to be addressed, and particularly so by proponents of free markets, in a more convincing way than "tough luck". Otherwise the "losers" have no reason to accept that free markets are desirable.

I'm imaging a scenario where you're crossing the Great Basin in Utah going West, then across the vast empty areas of Nevada in the dead of winter by yourself. There's a problem. A hose breaks. You have to get out an walk the train. You fall on the ice and break a leg. Now you're lying there in the snow by yourself with a dead train staring at the stars. The stars are spectacular though.
$5/year is an extremely high estimate.

A phone with a 5000mAh battery (more than any iPhone) takes about 20 watt hours of power to charge.

Charging it from empty to full each day would use about 7.3 kWh per year.

Electricity costs about 15c per kWh.

Welcome to the future-generation Slack Platform open beta
Today Slack launched the open beta of their future-generation, event-driven platform. This iteration features Typescript and Deno at the forefront, though support for other languages is being worked on.
Looks like an opportunity for a very juicy labor lawsuit here.
“An analogy that flips the script here is that some machine learning techniques, like “deep” neural networks, are perhaps as opaque as human thinking. They do amazing things. But no one yet understands exactly how.”

Not to derail the thread too much, but this line of, “deep learning is a black box!” is so tired and dated that it makes me question the veracity of every other point being made in the article. Something of a Knoll’s law effect, I guess?
Sure you can write your own QR and other bar code processing code, but it makes as much sense as rolling your own crypto, and for many of the same reasons.
>"We live in a fossil fuel based economy; the profit from fossil fuel based companies should be reinvested towards transitioning away from fossil fuels. This just makes sense."

These sentences seem like a non-sequitur to me, I'm not sure you're wrong, but why? Is it because transitioning away from fossil fuels is your top priority? If so, why?
Both Gates and Buffet promised to give away all their money, but they have only become richer. Gates uses his philanthropic trust to influence decisions that enrich his investments while convincing people he is doing it for good. How long are we supposed to wait for these guys to actually give away that money, or was it just a lie?
This is a combo of user error and changing fashion in music. Since there is currently no big "Nirvana" type band, there aren't 100 near-copies floating around.

If they wouldn't have been able to pull it off why would they have launched the satellites? I don't get why people constantly underestimate the ability of Elon Musk companies to points beyond what is reasonable. They're not going to just do something that's very likely to fail.

There's some good stuff on Amazon. My kids loved Tumble Leaf and we bought all the seasons of Mythbusters as they got older.
Oh, how do you feel about PPP? Over $400 billion and counting. Paychecks dont do much good when youre up to your eyeballs in debt. The university and college loans made since the late 80's have mostly been an increasingly lucrative scam, from ITT to UC. Everyone was told you had to go to college if you wanted to get somewhere and got saddled with debt you cant even get rid of in bankruptcy.
I would be interested in hearing more about your experience and whatever sort of things have come up...

$11mil / 169 = ~$65k / employee. So average pay at Internet Archive is barely over the median salary in the US? That's not good.

Salary costs don't need to be looked at as something to aggressively push down. You can treat your employees well while still being a non-profit.

(Though I'm not claiming wikipedia treats their employees well, I have no idea.)
Important to understand is that "provisioned access" as given to the US government is not considered to be a cyber attack, and lockdown mode will not help you there.

I'm currently reading Yvon's book "Let my people go surfing"[^1] and so far, I can highly recommend it.

> Capitalism does not reward hard work. Smart work, maybe, but not hard work.

I'd say a person successful/rewarded in a capitalistic society (defined by accruing more wealth than they started with and not just spending down some large family inheritance they were born into) probably has some combination of: luck, smart (intelligent) decisions, hard word, probably has a good "setup" going into the working world like parents didn't abuse them growing up and at least helped pay for their education, etc. Maybe that last one is just a subset of luck, we certainly do not choose our parents.

Sure, you can be missing one of the above list and do Ok, but probably not two. Statistically a smart, hard working person who had the world's crappiest upbringing probably won't be that successful compared with somebody who had all three going for them. But if you look at 20 "success stories" it is extremely rare the person didn't work hard. I think it's an important component of being rewarded in capitalism. It does a disservice to people to say "slacking off or working hard results in identical outcomes".

To support at least half of your point, you cannot be stupid and work hard and be successful. But a smart person who works hard will most likely do better than a smart person who doesn't work hard.

Yes, but if you read his complaint, he makes clear direct statements that Agrawal lied about things that are clearly jdugement calls, so he's already established himself as over-reaching. It's also worth noting $7m is not a big severence for this kind of departure - Swisher weighed in on this and her reaction to 7m was "that's not a big severence for this sort of thing", let alone to cover up wrongdoing.
There's no need for them to transfer data to satellites crossing in perpendicular directions to each other.
Do you realize that your statement is logically equivalent to:

"Every person who ever created a successful company and retained ownership of a lot of it is a policy failure".

Would you support that statement?
A large issue with fossil fuels is the externalities that companies can ignore when using them.

More like the former. There was indeed a deliberate omission in the past standard called Han unification [1], but it's now pretty much toned down thanks to the expansion of Unicode codepoint space in 2.0, following subsequent disunification processes and the eventual introduction of Ideographic Variation Database [2] to handle remaining cases.

That will just lead people to outsource their wealth by whatever means, so that it doesn’t formally count as their wealth anymore, but they effectively still control it.
No, they've been on all v1.5 satellites that have been launching for a little over a year now.
The only issue with wealth/income inequality in countries like America is that some goods are artificially constrained or positional (mostly housing).

A mediocre salary of $40,000 is enough to buy so many goods from competitive markets (phones, cars, anything you can get off Amazon/AliExpress). This becomes very apparent when you go to lesser developed countries.

The major costs in people's lives do not come from the billionaire class. If you tax them into oblivion and give that money away, it will be soaked up by housing anyway (look how sharply housing costs have risen after the growth in real income the past 2 years).

It most likely shouldn't be normal in a company which is used for serious (as in, related to countries' relations or even wars in extreme cases) politics, no matter whether its founders wanted it or not.

It wouldn't be probably an exaggeration to say that ability to post a tweet in someone's name, or ability to see private DMs can have financial effects (scams, frauds of big proportions), or in extreme, yet not unthinkable, circumstances lead to loss of health or life (war, terrorism).

I hear this a lot and I just don't buy it. The whole idea of science is that you can describe methods in text, send that text around the world, and have other people use those same methods to do their own independent studies. So even if you know that lab X really likes using a particular method, it could be someone from lab Y who read the papers from lab X and wanted to use them as well.

Sure, people like citing themselves. Editors of double-blind journals already are supposed to desk reject work that says something like "in our prior study (Smith 2020)..." They should also desk reject obnoxiously self-referential citations --- like "Great advances have been made in method X (Smith 2016, 2017a, 2017b, 2018, 2019a, 2019b, 2020, 2021)"
A few things:

- I think memory safety is a baseline. You'll note that memory safe languages already tend to be much more reliable than non-memory-safe languages in general.

- Then you have the error handling. A lot of unreliability in my code in other languages comes from unhandled exceptions that only occur rarely. Rust generally puts all possible error conditions in the type signature of the function. Meaning it's actually feasible to handle every failure case.

- Speaking of unhandled exceptions, a lot of those in typed languages tend to be caused by null. Rust does not have null. Instead it has Option, and it is impossible to access the contents of an option without doing the equivalent of a null check. So that entire class of errors is gone.

- Both Result (used for error handling) and Option (used instead of null) are what Rust calls enums, and what are more generally called Sum Types. I think these are a huge deal. They allow you to safely represent data that may be one thing or another with very strict type checking. These are broadly very useful in API design, and in my experience lead to much more robust code than the class hierarchies you need in OOP languages or unions which lack the safety checks. (Aside: sum types would be quite simple to add to other languages. I have no idea why they haven't been added yet).

- Speaking of classes, inheritance is not supported. So that's a bunch of confusing code that just isn't possible to write. This can add a bit of boilerplate to Rust code, but it makes it more straightforward and less bug prone.

- You mentioned the borrow checker. That definitely helps. It's yet another tool that allows you to write APIs that cannot be misused. A great example would be Rust's Mutex type. It can prove at compile time that code does not hold on to references to the protected data beyond the duration that the lock is held.

- Speaking of Mutex. Rust's Send and Sync traits provide very good thread safety. You almost don't need to worry about thread safety at all in Rust. Most concurrency bugs are prevented by the compiler (you can still do things like cause data races).

- Newtypes allow you to check invariants once and then have the fact that they remain satisfied enforced by the type system.

- All type casts are explicit.

- Lots of other little things

One final thing that I think is often overlooked. Rust is strict, and all of these checks apply not only to the code your write, but to all of your dependencies. That means that Rust libraries tend to be much more reliable than libraries from other ecosystems. That probably is partly because of a culture of reliability. But it's also because the language itself makes it hard to write sloppy code. And that the code you are building on is likely to be reliable makes it both less effort and more worthwhile to make your own code reliable (including for library authors), leading to virtuous circle of reliable code.
Nor sure why you’re being downvoted, it’s perfectly possible to never encounter this stuff on Twitter. If you encounter tweets by crypto-adjacent people (Elon Musk, etc.) or that mention crypto themes, and view the replies, you’ll easily find spam, but if you don’t do that you might never encounter it.
I don't think it's difficult at all. Not today, certainly.

With a maven project it's a single dependency: org.openjfx:javafx-controls:18.0.1

And a simple plugin (org.openjfx:javafx-maven-plugin:0.0.5? (I think)), https://github.com/openjfx/javafx-maven-plugin has a quick start.

Then: mvn clean javafx:run

No need to tweak your JVM install, the maven downloads everything you need, including the platform binaries.
WCAG specifically asks designers to avoid text in images because they're not equivalent.

If I embed an image in some text, like `foo <img alt="bar"> baz` then I doubt any search engine can find this for the search query `"foo bar baz"`.

I would like to copy and past text-like things as text, without having to copy and paste images. When I want to copy and paste text, I rarely care about matching exact styles. In cases where I want the exact style, I can just screenshot.

It's surprising how poorly labeled these images are; who is curating this collection?

Can't they crowd-source a proper labeling project - I wonder how much better things like Stable Diffusion would be if its training would include correct, complete labels for the images. I'm sure lots of folks would willingly spend a few minutes here and there to aid with the labeling if it means they get to enjoy the model for free.
