I've been trying to follow chess events for the last couple years and I enjoyed it. Right now I have completely lost all the interest in chess because of this 16 and Pregnant level of drama.

I feel that Magnus has become so important in the world of chess that other top level chess players are too afraid to intervene in this "cheating" scandal. Even Hikaru who seemingly has equal(if not bigger) media share of the chess world chooses to make silly videos instead of actually having strong stance against this bullying.

Innocent until proven guilty.
That is a nice tool. Thanks for spelling it out.
Pretty ironic to assert copyright on the weights while ignoring it on the training data the produces the weights. Are AI practitioners foolish enough to tempt that fate?
It should suffice that you can be proven not to be cheating right here and right now. Unlike doping, getting assistance helps you only exactly as long as you continue getting it.
Part of this is simply that AMD does a TERRIBLE job of writing tooling and software for anything that isn't just "render these triangles for this videogame". Doing raw compute things with AMD GPUs just seems limited to those building supercomputers apparently. Their promised "cross GPU" solution in ROCm is only available on a tiny fraction of the GPUs they make, seemingly without architecture excuses for why it isn't available on 5000 series cards, it took them YEARS to provide a backend that blender could actually use, productively and without crashes and bugs, and their drivers are just in general very fragile.

It's weird to me how much lip service AMD puts into making cross platform, developer friendly, free and open GPU compute standards, and then turn around and just not do that.
Yeah there is already textual inversion and other ways to "prompt" the models coming up. I do think pure human-level text will stay (and evolve) as a way though. Stability AI already released an updated CLIP model (the language model used in many of these) for example, also the model in the current SD was intentionally made simple so the whole system could fit in consumer GPUs VRAM, it was not state of the art.

There might be some interesting statistical analyses possible at the end of the day btw, like trying to figure out how many commonly widespread "artistic styles" there are in the world's total of art and photography so far. After all that is what a lot of the prompt engineering is about. Sort of a principal component analysis of the dominant 100 styles or something...

No, that is what comes next - after somebody mentions Apple's part in the herpes like spread of chicklet keyboards.

> Who are you to dictate what a third party does...

Who are you to put words in my mouth? I've counseled something other than compulsion, I've suggested that you and apologists like you should be openly mocked for reasons that I can't list - because it would be bullying, run afoul of various codes of conduct, etc.
This is the interesting question, really. Probably the most popular theory on reddit is nearest to the truth.
Exactly what TFA describes.

> The issue is not to just remember the 3 or 4 homeless people you've seen clearly dazed and likely unable to work, it's the thousands of people living in their car because rent is unaffordable for their income. That's the first point, abundance of housing lowers rents to the point of being affordable to Minimum-Wage workers.

For a bit aged, but probably still reasonably accurate article backing this up:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/aug/05/california-h...

> Other parts of California have seen similar increases. Los Angeles county had a 12% increase in the homeless population over the last year, with the numbers surging to nearly 59,000 across the county. Officials tallied 9,981 cars, vans, RVs and campers acting as shelters for a staggering 16,525 people in 2019 – 28% of the county’s entire unhoused population.
Tests may describe the what, but they don’t explain the why and the how, which are the important parts.
I organise things similarly to you. I created montaigne.io as a means to create and publish a website, blog or portfolio directly from Apple Notes.
The problem is that we should be able to choose, not Apple. Overriding Apple's software choices should not necessitate leaving the ecosystem, period. Especially considering Apple is the largest company in the world, it shouldn't be a problem for them to add a few toggles. We need regulation to hold them accountable for these simple options, but knowing Apple (and how deep in bed they are with the US government) this won't happen.

I agree though, and I've been moving myself away from Apple products since Catalina. The water is now lukewarm, and this little frog doesn't intend to be around when they put the lid on the pot.
Leetcode problems mostly come from competitive programming. That's what FAANG wants: olympiad programmers.
I think some people have run into a few cases where the documentation is stale, and then reflexively generalize that to "all documentation is stale."

And that's patently absurd on the face of it.
Only thing to be tilted about is a rampant cheater being allowed to continue competing professionally.
Hi HN,

redframes is a new data manipulation library specifically designed for ML/vis workflows.

I built the library to solve/address some of the things that I perennially find frustrating about pandas, namely:

- inconsistent syntax

- unpredictable side-effects

- six ways to do the same thing

While redframes admittedly does "less", I see it kind of like Trello (if pandas were Jira).

It's a hyper focused tool that can help you build matplotlib charts or scikit-learn models faster with:

- verbs

- method chaining

- lambda functions

redframes is the tool that I wish I had when I moved from R to Python.

While there have been several attempts at porting over dplyr to Python, redframes embraces everything great about Python and borrows heavily from the grammar created by dplyr~
There used to be bimonthly socials in SF that didn't have any particular focus, they were just an excuse for to hang out (and sometimes acquire a hangover).

From what I've read they already typically pat down and wand competitors.
As an adult: it's not that I'm afraid of appearing incompetent in front of peers. I don't care about that. I just know that my peers are also having their own troubles and I don't want to add my trouble to theirs.

When I am truly stuck on something and can't guess what the problem is, then yes I will ask for help. I've found that probably 60% of the time (guesstimate), my peers would guess the same things that I already tried, tested, and failed. In doing so, they've duplicated the time spent trying to solve the problem. Maybe 20% of the time, while doing so, they might spot something that I missed. Maybe another 10% of the time, they'll think of something I hadn't. And the last 10%? Well, that just means it's time to refactor the problem set to avoid what can't be solved.

That of course changes if I enter a new problem domain. At that point, I most certainly ask peers for documentation and examples. If I hit a snag then I ask what I did wrong. Most often the cause ends up being inaccurate documentation.

It might not be quite correct to describe it as the final nail in the coffin, but it absolutely was the killing blow.

Flash had been on shaky grounds for years. It was obvious that it had a limited lifespan, and that it eventually needed to die. I think even Adobe recognised this. But Apple accelerated it's death massively, and everyone seems to be very thankful for that.
There's analysis showing very few blunders and mistakes, not just for his rating, but in general and there are games of his with very strong correlation between his moves and the then best versions of Stockfish.

Competent programmers should know all the fine details of the programming language they work in, in effect being human compilers.

Wrong. Carlsen could have resigned in protest of the player and the current game doesn't matter.
Now-- someone figure out how to setup the boundary conditions so that it can fill in penrose or Jarkko Kari's aperiodic wang tilings to efficiently get aperiodic textures.

If you fill in a set of these tiles with the right edge rules, then you can just formulaically fill a plane and get a non-repeating texture without generating unreasonable amounts of SD output.
In this respect, I think cable companies are missing an apportunity, they should embrace and monetize geo-location. They are the only ones who can categorize us by income bracket (relatively speaking... house/neighborhood=income bracket). This has huge potential to become a targeted premium ad conduit.
The most obvious option to me seems to be price controls, which historically have been a very blunt instrument and as far as I know, most economists recommend against them.
Besides tanking all asset prices initially - that actually could pave the way for more inflation.

US federal debt is 30 trillion dollars. If the federal government had to pay 10% interest on its debt, it’d require almost all of federal spending be paid on our debt.

Of course that’d never happen. Instead they’d just borrow more to pay the interest, which means more dollars would be minted and we’d print several trillion dollars a year in unwanted stimulus each year just paying our federal debt. (Or enter a debt crisis.)
Niemann was a minor, in the other cases. Youthful indiscretion deserves forgiveness.
I've been going through it as well. There are a few things that helped me so far.

1) There's a biological component where happiness follows a U curve. Mid 40's tends to bottom out on happiness then steadily increases. Useful to know since riding it out is a viable strategy. [1]

2) This translation [2] of Marcus Aurelius's Meditations is powerful as a daily reminder that no matter the year or station in life, the struggles are universal. Focusing on what's in your control and "knowing thyself" goes a long way towards fighting overwhelm.

3) Modern hypnotherapy is worth studying and possibly doing a session or two with a skilled practitioner. It's basically a shortcut for hacking into your subconscious and un-sticking negative loops without needing to spend years in therapy talking about the past. It's gained popularity in high performance communities, CEOs, athletes, etc. But important to know the more modern version is different than hypnotherapy from 10+ years ago. It's also not stage hypnotherapy. Much more like lucid dreaming where you're still completely aware. I particularly like Marisa Peer's Rapid Transformational Therapy. Her books [3] are worth reading. I can connect you with RTT practitioners or coaches if you're interested. I've worked with a few.

I don't like the initial assumptions: that a cop would never have wet fingers, or that you'd never miss the contacts or have partially dry fingers when plugging it in.

At the core of nostalgia it isn’t just about an specific object or event that we cherish, but also the ERA during which it occurred, and the special people from that age:

My uncle who introduced me to computers, his eccentric genius friend who built a DIY amplifier for me, my aunt who walked in and smiled as I was humming the game’s tune while paddling across the swamp in Monkey Island 2… my other uncle who helped me read my first novel, The Hobbit, fanning my interest in the weird and whimsy, and passed away just before Rings of Power aired…

Mortality’s a bitch. I’m grateful for these little time machines, and I wonder what long-awaited sequel or remake will come out after I’m gone.. :)

Sure. You can get rid off telemetry and tons of unvanted processes. Well if you know, where to pirate.
You joke, but the only tournaments Hans has performed well in (2700+) are coincidentally the ones where the boards are sharing the moves live online. He performs at a 2400 level when the games aren't available online.
Apple devices last forever, it's pretty common to give the old devices to your parents or sell them - the Apple device market is very vibrant because they last. By the time that the device would fail due to wear and tear you probably wouldn't want to use it anyway.

You may remind me about design failures of Apple where the devices would break down but Apple does repair programs or recalls when something like that happens. That's also why we have warranties.
How does disabling TrueTone/autobrightness help your security? Or vibration motor? Or battery? Or rear facing camera?

I can answer for you: these are completely unrelated to security. It is just a middle finger from Apple to anyone wanting to repair their device.

Breaking the silence by posting something unsubstantive is the worst thing you can do. Threads are sensitive to initial conditions. Please don't do that again.

It's quite normal for a thread to get upvoted but not get comments for quite a while. If that means people are reading and digesting the article, that's great. We want reflective comments, not reflexive ones (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...) and those take time.
I just appreciate that the end result is a better UX. How we got there, I don't care. The standards are important, but they're ultimately there to provide a nice UX and that's it.

> If Magnus destroys Niemann, he'll be able to pretty handily claim that Niemann can't win without communication to computers. If Niemann is competitive, or wins, it will be hard for Carlsen to make any more such claims.

I don't think that's very conclusive.

The thing is, there's still an element of luck[1] in chess. A lower-rated player can beat a higher-rated player, and a higher-rated player can dominate an even match.

>Effective propaganda is one of the US's strongest competitive advantages - extensive and well funded national security apparatus, think tanks with global reach, compliant media publishers with global reach and big tech platforms used throughout the world, which can amplify and dampen messages, based on whether they suit US foreign policy objectives. We should celebrate this full spectrum narrative control, not 'investigate' it.

Government propaganda is anathema to a free and democratic society. Our government is purportedly granted its authority by the consent of the masses. Having this consent influenced (or completely manufactured by government propaganda) nullifies the whole idea of democracy. The absurd contention that propaganda being spread by US military and government operatives on Facebook and social media is only targeted at (much less only influences) "foreigners" is patently absurd. Millions of Americans (myself included) vehemently oppose our currently stated "US foreign policy objectives" devised by the CIA, the Pentagon and the various government-funded "think tanks" that set policy and direct these propaganda efforts. "Full spectrum narrative control" has been the wet dream of every dictator, king and authoritarian government since the dawn of time, and it should be something that every thoughtful, decent person recognizes as toxic and incompatible with a free and open society.
Continued unabated fossils use indeed is sinking the other boats to get ahead short term, but hopefully enough people will disagree to get some less cynical climate cognizant energy policy going there.
Yea sorry for the confusion, this was mostly a response to the other comments talking about it being money laundering.

I haven't programmed in Java in many years, except for making DAGs for Storm and a authorization metalibrary that none of the "real" Java programmers liked. Paradoxically the most sccinct statement of dislike concerned my choice of arraylike class: "THAT'S WRONG!". The Java programmers had source control, just like the rest of us. But their Maven configs weren't under source control, and they wouldn't help the rest of us with ours. I've concluded that I'm indifferent to Java, but not so good with Java programmers.

There's a big ball of puzzling contradictions in the above.

Have you heard of Lacan or Zizek? Well. Poetically speaking, I'll paraphrase Tom Lehrer and opine that "Java programmers must feel like a Christian Scientist with appendicitis". In my opinion: remember that.

They've build a lot of ritual around notions of control and deliberativeness (that array problem). They're Catholic or Orthodox, really. The JVM is supposed to be "safe", and I have to ask: does the communion wine really turn to the blood of Christ?

My father was a psychiatrist. I am well aware that Dr. Tim Leary was a pioneer in personality diagnosis, having found "The Interpersonal Diagnosis of Personality" on my father's bookshelf. I analyzed precinct level voting patterns, and they exist; but the question "is it something in the water, or new car smell?" remains vexing and unsolved.

There is something that happens when people program in different languages with different tools, especially in groups. It's not just languages: how does Docker culture compare to NanoVMs on the Leary radar chart?

But what I have for you is a (hopefully) playful personality diagnosis of some of the major programming languages. Make some popcorn. This is for entertainment purposes, but maybe it'll give you something to think about.

Hans beat Magnus once at the Sinquefield Cup, and technically here though it was Magnus resigning. Meanwhile at the Crypto Cup which was the last time they played before this Hans got trounced by Magnus. Keep in mind based on their ratings Hans had a 5% chance of beating Magnus while playing black, unlikely but not a particularly shocking upset.
>Carnegie opened my eyes to how to communicate productively, but it’s also a really manipulative way of being.

I find it odd that people keep raving about this book. As you said it is a very manipulative and exploitative way. It is ok if you are just aiming for getting what you want. Instead I find Robert Green's books which callout and does not sugar coat anything.

Where does the money come from? It is a pool of money that those who don't qualify for have paid more into and are not seeing the benefits.

You know xcb and xlib are just different client libraries for accessing the exact same wire protocol, right?

Moreover, notice the example they gave there is atom interning, which is a roundtrip on the wire (though you can batch them even in xlib...), and they say "most real applications will see less benefit than this" since that's the worst case - most applications do atom work at startup, not in the main use cycle, which is famously both async and buffered (it used to be a FAQ on xlib tutorials reminding people to run the event loop, and error handling is complicated a bit by it).
> You should document your tests, too, because I guarantee the next programmer won't understand your tests as well as you (think you) do. Also: the "next programmer" will be you in a year.

I hear this a lot, but I haven't found the same with myself. I can read and understand old code I wrote.

I attribute it to my IQ being mostly held up by reading and writing comprehension skills. The way I process information makes it easier for me to remember and understand old code (I believe), compared to a lot of programmers whose inherit skills align more closely to things like math and logic.

Documentation can be a rabbit hole for me, and I often don't feel I benefit from it within the code.

I appreciate this is as good tactic for many people, but implying it's for everyone is too dogmatic.

I think the people who come up with leetcode problems are just going to be into competitive programming. There are a bunch of tricks that are specific to competitive programming just like there are a bunch of common tricks/themes in IMO problems. And, like in IMO, some of th3 required skills are only relevant to the competition and some are more generally applicable (even if part of the value of competitive programming is just being good at some coding interviews)
