Let me ask you, if you heard that in the next town over they started a dog fighting ring would you start one in your town and take your own dog so that he might learn from such "enlightened" behavior?

I sleep much better knowing my dog isn't taught such behavior is acceptable. I would hate for him to bite the hand that feeds him because he learned such, "enlightened" behavior is acceptable and condoned by his owner.

I just can't understand how this makes sense, it seems like its the wrong way round. How can over analysis mean things are less optimal?

“Industry analysts anticipate that the next Grand Theft Auto will be out sometime in Take-Two’s 2024 fiscal year, which runs from April 2023 through March 2024, but developers are skeptical. The game has been in development in some form since 2014. Although there are loose schedules in place, people interviewed for this article said they didn’t know of any firm release date and that they expect the game to be at least two years away. Earlier this year, a group of designers quit Rockstar’s Edinburgh office, telling colleagues they were sick of the lack of progress.”

It's like saying Tizen is flagship because it's used in millions of Samsung TVs.
What's fascinating to me as someone who has followed the game for a while is the evolution of engines and how their play has influenced human play. Stockfish versus AlphaZero was fascinating only because it showed that at the highest of highest levels of chess (3000+ ELO) - there are ways to trick engines and employ "human" strategies (for example, there was a game where Alpha "blundered": it sacrificed 2 pawns and ceded the center of the board to push a wing pawn that 25 moves later ended up blocking Stockfish's kingside development entirely). Incredible, but the flip side of this is realizing that traditional chess is essentially a solved problem to some degree.

From what I can understand, chess at the highest of human levels is just using an engine to find tricks and traps 30+ moves into a given match. Anywhere about 2000+ rating or above, most people will play a relatively fixed number of openings that have been explored to death time and time again. It's now about psychological hacks that can be be backed up by deep engine analysis. "If at move 45 in a Sicilian Dragon game I play sub-optimal move X instead of optimal move Y, my opponent might make a sub-optimal response which will open up a specific square or hang a piece 10 turns later according to AlphaZero or Stockfish".

I can see why Magnus is kind of bored by it.

To me, Fisher Random (Chess960) solves this by eliminating opening theory almost entirely. Crazyhouse Chess is also a blast, but it too is hampered by theory as there are fewer competent opening moves than standard chess and there's even less room for creativity. Crazyhouse960 is by far my favorite variation of chess, because there's no endgame to solve towards and little to none opening theory to draw from. Shame nobody plays it these days - if you're so inclined, come join over at PyChess.org and play a few rounds!
But if we analogise from Poker to Chess, we're talking about Heads Up, and Heads Up is definitely just soluble. A perfect strategy like Cepheus will gradually take all your money unless you also have a perfect strategy.

Whereas Chess, even AI chess, is far from solved.

Also at the most obvious level, poker is random, the strategies are over a long series of deals. Cepheus won't ever magically find a way to make its 2-7 off work against your pair of Aces, you will always make that too expensive to continue, but it wins overall because next hand it's not going to pick up garbage. Whereas every Chess game begins the same, so a hypothetical solver would just always beat you.

> So, you’re working on a new ML project. The first thing you do, model-wise – you implement a simple heuristic baseline and see where you stand. Second, you try a simple ML solution and analyze how much it improves the baseline.

> top players consistently make more money over the long run

Has this actually been verified, at least in the modern era (last 10 or so years)? Yes, you see the same guys on TV and to a lesser extent, final-tabling multiple tournaments. But these guys are often on TV because they are entertaining, not necessarily great (or consistently-winning) players. They typically all have external sources of income (sponsorships, poker training, commentary, casino ambassador, company owners, etc) and most reduce volatility by buying and trading pieces of each others' action. In addition, for tournaments, some guys are able to simply enter way more events, which naturally leads to more final tables, but you're not seeing all the losses and bust outs.

All I'm saying is that it's not the same as the 70s through 90s where the skill gap was so huge that yes, certain players could (especially by going on the road and playing private games) absolutely dominate. I think winning consistently today is more of an illusion and some short-term luck.

"...previously unreported..."

There is at least a bit of spin in those words that aren't quantified by your impression of them. What is meant by 'many' in this regard? 12 of them (out of 56) were unreported?

Unreported in English-language works, really? Qualify that statement, show me where you or the authors actually combed through all the works of the English language to arrive at such a statement. Show me one example among the 56 for which I cannot find a prior report on in English language works.

> Month to month inflation has been flat or near flat for some months now

Inflation compounds and we've been at relatively high inflation for a while now. Of course the Biden admin will want to just normalize this sustained inflation.

People are effectively getting around a month of salary stolen from them. Transaction cost of a new job hurts most people & depresses wage growth (the obvious side-effect of monetary expansionism).

It's fair to say that we won't experience deflation since no central bank will allow that. And our high debt load prevents raising interest rates anywhere near the necessary amount, if you compare it to Volcker. The only responses they seem to have, in practice, are: print tons of money or print slightly less than that.

We're trapped in a debt spiral and my guess is that the world suffers enormously from central planning (artificially low interest rates in the modern era in order to finance government disasters) and the US suffers less than everyone else because of their global hegemony (reserve status), economy & geography.
Watts are a unit of energy per unit time. So not like a fixed budget in dollars, but rather a recurring budget in dollars per hour. Obviously, our energy use varies a great deal over time (just as our monetary spending tends to), so we can smooth that out (amortize it) to get a rough idea of our average rate of energy use.

If you use a 400 watt computer all of the time your personal remaining energy budget is 1600 watts. I use a computer around 10 hours a day during the week, and three or four on weekend days (so around a third of the time). Amortized, that means I would be using on average around 133 watts on computing, if I used such a desktop. But I actually use a Thinkpad T420, and its consumption averages out to around 30 watts when in use (so amortized to 10 watts).

I think the development community would absolutely buy into a proprietary system again. We haven't seen a good 2d vector engine for games to replace Flash, but screens keep getting bigger and denser.

I mostly prototype in typescript/Pixi these days when I tinker on small games, but the workflow is nowhere near as nice as "author assets in Flash -> import directly in AS3." Flash was also a game engine and asset pipeline. I'd be super pleased if someone built a typescript version of Flash's display tree + vector rendering + authoring tools.
Apparently Mercator wasn't the original projection they used[1]. But they found that it worked better for giving people directions because it preserved route angles in higher latitude regions (it's benefit for navigation is the reason it became so popular, from my understanding).

For what it's worth, I feel like I don't actually come across the Mercator projection that often (I'd say the Robinson projection is more popular in schools, for instance).

There is deeper host side integration for these applications and the VM’s are virtual address backed (the guest vm’s memory is represented as a process on the host), which adds more opportunities to free up physical memory.

The elevation in this case is just a proxy for storing the barometric pressure, which is because the actual air pressure is the important thing to track if you are trying to normalize against athletic performance.

Yes universities took advantage, but it seems clear that the government is who is to blame. They created a situation where a person who is going to be making $40,000 a year could take out massive student loans. It is hard to put as much blame as you are on an organization who has the opportunity to get government money.

> What killed it? According to my acquaintance it was Apple.

It was definitely what drew the first blood.

But in fairness, a lot of people were crying for blood, flash had issues all over, and it was a complete security disaster. Apple's decision basically gave everyone the OK to dump on it.

It also happened at a time where the idea of open web was ascendent, MSIE was being actively fought against, and the people involved were out to excise proprietary platforms.

Also all mobile platform flash implementations had been absolutely awful, barely usable battery killer even ignoring that the UI affordances were just not adapted for mobile touchscreen devices.
It's not as if many people have $10k-$20k sitting around they could put toward a student loan but have decided not to because of the announced policy.

That is exactly what is happening. Sitting around could be defined as parents with $10,000 ready to help but deciding to let general tax payers pay up.
Fair. Perhaps an implicit limiting factor in the Python community is that Python applications tend to be written and maintained by smaller numbers of people concurrently.

But I think there is also a strong culture (at least nowadays) of individual developers not fucking with library internals and generally respecting API boundaries.

Problems arise mostly with libraries that lack a clear public/private distinction like Pydantic and FastAPI, which is one of the big reasons why I personally think they are (currently) unsuitable for serious professional application development, despite being big winners of the "framework popularity contest" and being excellent tools for rapid prototyping and development of ad-hoc things.

Most everything on the internet is a falsehood prepped up and bolstered for clout. Even much of the stuff you see here bragging about starting a SaaS or whatever, for clicks and likes. Instagram pictures are faked. The happiness, is faked. Much of the conversation on Twitter is astroturfed and botted to such an extent to farm likes and narratives. What's disturbing is all the fake is spilling right out into real life nowadays. Influencers walking around filming everywhere and fully believing they're celebrities in their own right, and with a matching entirely different off camera/off public view personality to boot.

We have William Gibson novels nearly coming to life a few decades later. Celebrity and influencer obsession and the itch and the need for that dopamine hit to go viral. It's a disease.
> Seriously, this is such a self centered and short sighted point of view

No, this is exactly the opposite.

People still decided to respect the words onto which they signed their name.

It's a bug. Incentives should be aligned with the societally-beneficial behavior.
