… I've been wanting one of their PSUs for a while now, but every time I try to buy it, the site is down. (And the "buy" site appears to be separate from the "marketing" site, so I can see the page with the PSU, the "it's on sale!". It's just the actual "shut up and take my money" part that apparently doesn't function.)

So IDK, maybe their PSU dept. is doing great.
> The bots also increase online discussion around motion, observed the research paper, by tweeting posts with words like “moving”, “go”, “going”, “leave”, which are potentially associated with staying or fleeing the country.

Pick 'leave'. Is this "I think _we_ should leave" or "I think _they_ should leave". Without context these words could be used in either way. I searched the paper for the word "leave" and it wasn't there, so the article pulled this example from nowhere.

I am also not convinced whether the sentiment isn't also just amplified from that of real people. On page 11 of the paper [1] the "lag" seems to be the content from the bots becoming less emotive over time. On the other hand, page 12 in the conclusion it appears to amplify with time, which could also be somebody getting more exasperated. I don't know whether this could be concluded to have real intention behind it.

Couldn't find now but years ago (~10) there was a long article/essay here about China pretty much lamenting about the same question that China is a poor country with a lot of rich people or a rich country with a lot of poor people.
> This doesn't make sense at all. Not knowing is the default. Until there's conclusive evidence, the fact is that we don't know.

[…]

> You've just tried inverting the rules of science by saying that if you assert something is true and someone else points out that it's an unsubstantiated hypothesis, the burden of proof is on them, thereby making your hypotheses true by default.

You should definitely take epistemology classes on coursera or elsewhere, because by our definition of “knowing”, we never get to know anything.

And unfortunately this “but we cannot know it's too complex” is way too common nowadays, from climate change to pandemic management “we don't know” is a convenient fallacy. There are key things that we actually do know :

- that Rust is memory safe while Zig isn't (not even from a spacial perspective because there are escape hatches).

- that memory safety is a deep issue and tracking object lifetime by hand isn't something humans are good at, at all. (and use of Zig in the wild shows that the issue is unsurprisingly very common in Zig, as it is in C).

So, yes we cannot be sure that there aren't second orders or third orders effects that makes Rust less than optimal and compensate for this massive difference, but there exist no convincing list of such hypothetical effects that could have a significant impact in Rust's ability to build correct software (to take your examples about legibility and testing, Rust has a strong emphasis on explicitness and incremental builds are more than fast enough for efficient testing, so there's little margin for gains on these fronts).

So have clear evidences of a strong first order effect in favor of Rust, and no compelling evidences for adverse higher orders effects, that's what our current knowledge is.

That's a big difference with your Haskell example, because Haskell cannot really pinpoint a significant edge over other languages, it's more a collection of convenient little things, so the improvement is much more vulnerable to higher order effects. The same could be said if we had to compare Rust and Java for instance: I much prefer use Rust than Java because there are many things that I like but at the same time there are little things that are decisively in favor of Rust (Send and Sync trait for compile-time thread safety is nice, but really workload dependent) so I'd be very wary of saying that Rust leads to more correct code than Java.

But Zig carries a significant burden in that regard (and I believe it should really think about introducing a borrow-checker-like in its design before it's too late and compatibility with existing code makes it impossible, while eschewing the whole ML-style functional stuff that Rust has, because that part is definitely in the “nice to have but not really significant” category).
I thought it was clear what I meant, but could see how there might be ambiguity.

To be perfectly clear I do not think qualified immunity should exist and that courts are too quick to rubber stamp warrants. Also most non-violent crimes shouldn’t be crimes IMO. That said, in many year of following the topic I don’t know of anyone being killed while refusing a search in a Terry Stop or an officer requesting entry to a home. Most police killings conform to a few narrow sets of common circumstances, that deserve a LOT of scrutiny but never seem to involve a warrantless search.
Iranian state-related hackers broke into a NJ accounting firm?

How many instances of this happen every day? Also what are the actual chances of the hackers going to jail given they're state-related?

On a larger scale, why doesn't the DoJ just prosecute every Russian solider? They're accomplices to war crimes and murder after all.

All this will read in a few hundred years after the collapse of the US empire to be utter hubris. Like Hannibal whipping a river. Or old medieval states digging up dead people to behead them again. It's just the US state screaming into the void.

You need a conventional cooler to remove the heat from the hot side of both. The only difference is that the compression one can move the heat further away.
If you programmed in machine code (without a fancy assembler), you can't simply move your instructions around in memory to make room for bugfixes, so instead you place a couple of nops here and there (usually in strategic places like the start of a function or right after a conditional branch, so that you can later replace those nops with jumps or subroutine calls to add patches.
I'm glad Cragislist hasn't changed. It's pretty much ideal as it is.
From 1897 to 1953, New York City operated a pneumatic tube mail transport system. It consisted of 27 miles of tubing connecting 23 post offices and carried 95,000 letters per day, amounting to 30% of the city's mail volume. The canisters were two feet long and eight inches in diameter and could carry 600 letters.[1]

Jams were a bear. Crews would travel the route of the tube and check air pressure at test points every two blocks where the tube surfaced. When they found a drop in pressure at a test point, they would try to free the stuck canister by injecting extra pressure. If that failed, they would have to dig up the street.[2]

In the early 2000s, parts of the network were repurposed to run fiber optic cable.

I sometimes wonder what would happen (it won't) if some fed-up Congressperson drafted a bill that would allow folks to sue Facebook, etc. for libel when it accused you of being a ped0, criminal, or other malcontent. Perhaps they would be a bit less happy to accuse their users of vile things.

How do you carbon offset?

We have a bunch of diseased pine trees. Assuming we don't have enough time to cut them down and burn them in the next 12 months, and that I am unscrupulous, I could sell you carbon credits through one of the bigger exchanges. You would never know, and it would be completely above board.

John Oliver had a particularly depressing segment on this recently.

One of the premises behind the language is parametric rendering. So nothing described with Matry is static.

The difference, however, between Matry and something like xstate is that the actual state is intended to be left to developers, because I’m trying to create an interface that allows designers to just focus on what they need to focus on.

So take something like dark mode. A designer might allow for a Boolean parameter that determines whether a component render in dark or light mode.

But as to whether the browser supports it, or whether the user has that mode set in their system preferences - that’s the developers responsibility.

That doesn’t fully answer your question but it’s a complex topic so hopefully that gives you an idea as to where my thoughts are going.
I'll usually listen to podcasts when alone as a restaurant. If I've got a wall seat where video won't distract people, I'll certainly sometimes bring up youtube/netflix. Might be a bit rude to the other patrons depending on the restaurant to watch videos in their view while eating.

Why are you so surprised, though? Am I supposed to just sit there and stare at the wall?
The problem is that this becomes more difficult the more unpleasant the topic is. If you have to talk with somebody because there was a complaint about them, and you send the invite "Re: X project issues" because that's where the original complaint originated from you end up in the same situation - that was what I was trying to say in my OP, because then people will say again that it is too broad and anxiety inducing. If you are upright "Re: Complaints about your behavior in project X" you get the employee all riled up and panicking, potentially overreacting and not getting any rest until the meeting actually happens

EDIT, NB: E-mails are typically archived and have to be produced in case of a litigation, or could be requested by HR. You might be fully on the side of your employee and don't want keep an explicit record of this as it might be misconstructed ("Well there were records that XXX misbehaved before" etc)
I think the contention is that hosting is a service. Just as you are suggesting Facebook is offering a defective service (that you said should not be offered), then so are hosting providers as they similarly can't moderate granularly.

Hey germinalphrase, I'm doing something similar after leaving my job earlier this year.

I took a bit of time off, then started exploring how people use their time on sabbatical to learn new skills, work on personal projects, raise kids, travel, etc.

After talking with a bunch of people about their experiences, the high-stakes feeling you observed is pretty common - I think people tend to underestimate the emotional aspects of taking a break from work.

My current transition plan is to spend a bit more time studying sabbaticals and turn that into something concrete (a book/guide and coaching) before doing some part-time consulting with my professional skills (marketing analytics) to cover my living expenses ala CoastFIRE.

I think there's a gap in part-time professional work - it's really hard to find long-term, part-time positions that take advantage of professional skills and offer benefits.

If you want to bounce ideas off someone who is also trying to thread the needle I'd love to chat more.

I wish they'd just do quick, practical examples.

This is what happens when you mess with mains voltage and chuck a fork into a circuit. Maybe even a dead rat/frog. This is what happens when you put too much power into a wire, and let them watch it catch on fire.

I knew power was conceptually dangerous when I was a kid. I didn't realize how dangerous until I tried to change a light switch as a teenager, and didn't realize the house had multiple breaker boxes. Watching fairly thick copper wires melt themselves scared the hell out of me.

I won't do anything over 12v myself to this day. I'm too hasty and easily distracted for it to end well.
Browse urbandictionary and you'll find a lot of benign nouns that are insulting or that are slurs. Prediction: there's a definition of 'spider' that is offensive up there... be right back.

Instead of denying the truth of the feedback, you could have asked, “Thanks I’d love to know which competitors so we can understand if and how to adjust.”

Then you’d learn something, or not. But by pushing back “no” you’ll definitely not.
You’re saying the bear doesn’t dance all that well.
You’re being pedantic. I’m with you that “imbalance” sounds a little new-agey and imprecise, but I’ve talked to a lot of scientific and medical people about BiPD and I haven’t met one yet who didn’t understand what was actually being said: that bipolar disorder has some kind of physical, correctable cause in the brain. Somewhere in there, all those little lithium ions pummel a misfolded protein into shape or clog up an ion channel or something in such a way that the patient experiences relief.

It isn’t precise. But back in the real world, the “chemical imbalance“ explanation serves the very important purpose of explaining to a lot of ordinary people who otherwise wouldn’t understand that bipolar people who are manic or depressed are not in control of what they do. And that’s important, because when they’re manic or depressed, bipolar people often act like bad people.
Depends on your level and your geographical location but a staff engineer could vest anywhere from 300K-800K per year depending - more if you see some meaningful stock appreciation over time. Staff engineers are like top ~10% of a company's engineers. That number can go up significantly if you're a principal engineer.

200K seems pretty average for a senior engineer role (i.e. a 'terminal' role, not an up-or-out junior role) in the Bay Area on top of a 150-200K base.
> It is hard to scam someone with an in person exchange of cash for goods.

You would think so, but some asshole tried to do this to me. We had agreed on a price ahead of time, and when he showed up, he tried to low ball me with a 50% lower offer. I refused to sell the item to him, and then he became aggressive and I had to call the cops to get him to leave.

I won't get into the details, but based on what I saw, I think this guy runs kind of a side-business acting as a middle man reselling tech gear. I think he does this routinely, probably low balls people and then tries to re-sell the same stuff on marketplace afterwards. I think tech gear attracts assholes/scammers more than anything else because it has a potentially high resale value.

So, just be careful out there. Never share your phone number with people from marketplace, and don't reveal your home address if at all possible. Try to have a friend over if you have people coming for transactions or do it in a public place.
ADOM, of course.
I believe that was a traffic stop and the officer freaked out after Castile mentioned that he had a CC handgun. Clearly the officer fucked up and murdered an innocent man. However, I think that’s different in kind and circumstances from what I was asking about.
I know they don't have plans to work with AMD but I'd consider switching to AMD for my next card if EVGA was manufacturing it. They fixed an old card of mine way out of warranty so I have some brand loyalty here.
Since the new GPU offerings from nvidia have secure multi-tenancy, I think you're going to start seeing things like that. Especially when you look at what's happening with compute being more universally adapted via Vulkan. I haven't seen the framework for such a thing yet but you make a good point. I think I've got half a model in my head that could be retooled for something like that in a flexible fashion. It could work both ways too. Either you are giving away GPU cycles for research or you are paying for people to be paid for their cycles, or you post up your own job to be computed for pay or donation of cycles or money. As an example, wanna render predictions for erosion on a property you wanna buy? Put up the job and people that wanna contribute can and you get the result. Any user could set their hierarchy of things they contribute to. Like patreon sort of. So bucks or compute cycles can be chunked out to them by order of need and weighted priority.

Humm. Someone beat me to this idea so I don't have to do it.

I was never a regular National Review reader, but my impression is that their quality has gone a long, LONG way downhill from "the good old days". Their article can't seem to articulate that if I can pay for tricky surgery to fix my hip joints, then I should be allowed to risk it. Ditto a really expensive hair transplant, for mere vanity's sake. Or suggest that a kid born without a left arm, or a veteran who lost his right leg might have better moral claims to society paying the medical bill than somebody who feels that they're the wrong gender?

It's as if the nation's flagship conservative magazine was replaced by a barrel-scraping supermarket tabloid, and reduced to running "I Was the Kidnapped Bride of Bigfoot, and Discovered That He's An Illegal Space Alien Welfare Cheat!" stories.
A lot of that is caused by American income being separated into different streams. Your base income, your health-care insurance payments, your FSA or HSA contributions, your 401k matching, your stock grants (ha!), interest on savings accounts, etc, etc, etc.

Some of these secondary income sources send you tax forms in the mail, randomly, that look like junk mail.

So whereas a normal person earning 90k in the UK just gets paid, a person earning 90k in the US has to do the same level of paperwork you'd expect from a rich and enthusiastic investor with a thriving portfolio.

At the end of the form it says that you affirm that you believe everything is correct, under penalty of perjury, which can really knock you for a loop.

So the tax-prep firms charge you to do all this paperwork and offer you upsold insurance that covers you against accidental perjury.

It's wonderful.

The redlined neighborhoods on the north side also weren't black (Lincoln Park was Puerto Rican). People have written books about how the gentrification of the north side happened; you can consult them.

Insider trading is currently illegal (nominally).

My point is that this bill won't help our desire to see punishment for (alleged) insider trading by congress that is already happening.

I feel really badly for anybody starting off today. The technology landscape is terrifying and it's really hard to know what to learn or even where to start. With a C64, you could master that machine inside and out very easily and while you were at it, really understand how a CPU works. It's amazing what they were able to do with a CPU with 3000 transistors (compared to the 50 odd billion in modern processors)
The CDC disagrees:

"The declines in life expectancy since 2019 are largely driven by the pandemic. COVID-19 deaths contributed to nearly three-fourths or 74% of the decline from 2019 to 2020 and 50% of the decline from 2020 to 2021. "

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/nchs_press_releases/2022/...

Drug overdoses were significant, but much less than COVID:

"An estimated 16% of the decline in life expectancy from 2020 to 2021 can be attributed to increases in deaths from accidents/unintentional injuries. Drug overdose deaths account for nearly half of all unintentional injury deaths."
