This is not true at all. For instance Nepominatchi commented on game saying Niemann's play was "more than impressive"[1]. Not commenting on the situation per se, merely your "clear consensus among other top chess players" comment.

My last CTO of a 70 person company was in his 50s and while he did everything that I would expect a CTO to do - manage vendor relationships, deal with pre-sales when trying to get new customers (B2B), and define a vision, there were a number of times he would throw together a quick non production ready piece of code in Python or C# to prove out a concept and share it with me in Dropbox to make it production ready. I greatly appreciated it. That was part of his role with strategy. He understood technology well, played with Docker on the weekend and analyzed data using Athena (serverless AWS Apache Presto).

But I knew when I spoke to him about a proposal, I needed to start off speaking non technical and talk about business value and business impact (when I got to technical he would say he “doesn’t have time to listen that shit” - we had a very good working relationship and we didn’t waste time with niceties when we were trying to get a point across to each other. When he had time though, we would need out.

On the other hand, the CTO I had before that hadn’t been hands on technical at all for over a decade. When I spoke to him, I spoke only in terms of the business value and the holy Trinity (on time, on budget, meets requirements).

In both cases, they hired me so they wouldn’t have to deal with those details and it was my responsibility to explain trade offs.

People just spewing their garbage everywhere around this. It is amazing. It is almost like politics. It is crazy how people are getting about this issue.
Even for basic https request, would you need certificates ?
This is complete garbage. Real statistical analysis has been done, and has been inconclusive so far. Cherry picking games is ridiculous - at the 2800 level, a GM will only deviate from the engine's top moves 0-3 times. It would be expected that an exceptional performance would remain within top engine moves if someone was able to play at that level.

Not only did he fail to explain his reasoning in any satisfactory way, but the suggestions he gave as responses to alternative lines from his opponent were outright losing which showed that he had a poor grasp of the position. This is extremely suspicious behaviour from a player who had just defeated the world champion while using the black pieces.

The consensus among the top GMs was that Hans’s postgame analysis was way below the level you would expect from a player of his rating, never mind a player near Carlsen’s rating (which is much higher)!
The software engineer equivalent of this: there is almost no new pattern it is all just for loops, variables, lambdas, if statements, etc.

There are many different kind of designers but they operate at a higher-level. For example: observing users, creating user flows, creating site maps, creating designs, validating designs, gathering feedback, etc.

I find most engineers are terrible at doing the above, and I include myself in this. If I was running a startup I would invest a lot into finding a good designer and making sure they have a productive environment.
Unheard Voice: Evaluating five years of pro-Western covert influence operations [pdf]
What's missing in that analysis is the sheer number of games Niemann has played recently, it's simply an enormous amount of OTB games - outside the norm. Furthermore, there's some consensus that a lot of the younger players are underrated as a result of the pandemic when a lack of rated OTB tournaments prevented a normal rating increase, and Hans' rapid improvement would partially be explained by his official rating quickly equalizing with his actual ability.
Hans also is trolling. Who knows if he can't explain or just doesn't want to. It means nothing.

It looks like a typical paid networking program. The price and application process to get in gives it an air of exclusivity (or, in economic terms, scarcity). You can find similar programs in various industries and even hobbies and political movements. In some senses it's a spin on the concept of college fraternities.

Whether it's a "scam" is a bit subjective. There's a decent chance that once you pay the fees, you really will be granted access to online forums and/or chat servers and/or IRL events with the people listed on the web site (there's a good chance the bigger names are getting a cut of the program's profits). However, it's also possible to meet and interact with these sorts of people without having to pay an entry fee and join a club; look for events on LinkedIn or MeetUp or the like.
I think this varies by project.

I personally support every version of my projects.

Can mean anything. It was very impressive.
"gullible people who lack critical thought" comprise an enormous proportion of people, and many have influence one way or another, be it voting or violently storming a pizza shop with a rifle

obviously we all have a vested interest in ensuring citizens are educated and informed
I agree. But at the same time it's absolutely destructive for other players playing a known cheater, spending so much energy on "is he cheating against me now?"

With how Hans responded to Carlsen's unorthodox opening and his history, it made Carlsen unsure and wrecked the rest of his game. And given Hans couldn't even explain his moves later..
Both the comment you replied to and its parent are throwaway and basically parallel imo. Rah rah climate change vs dismissing the link to climate change are both super boring at this point, but somehow one is presently the top comment and the othe dead.
I think a lot of people forget Apple pulled vaping/tobacco apps from their App Store..

I smoke cannabis (legal state), purchased a $500 flower vaporizer with connectivity, but now I can no longer fully enjoy the device since Apple decided they know more about my habits than I do.

It’s completely unfair and wrong of Apple to gatekeeper their App Store for completely legal activities

>Quite weird to compare infrastructure of a static frontend to a backend with db and stuff?

I suppose you don't know what you're talking about, but Next.js is a backend and frontend supporting a wide variety of data sources. I personally like using Prisma and postgres with my Next.Js deployments.

Biogen agrees to pay $900M to settle drug kickbacks allegations
As far as I can tell the term remains in limited use by modern scholars, largely to describe periods & places of the time span traditionally so-labeled that happen to be particularly lacking in primary sources so are indeed, in that sense, "dark", as in lacking illumination and obscured. Seems to me that usage would fit OK for the setting of Beowulf. Or it may have been employed in the colloquial sense, which also seems fine and clear, IMO.
You do appear to be interpreting it incorrectly. This is about Pluton, for which the threat actor is Microsoft. People concerned about the NSA would need to be worried going all the way back to the introduction of AMD PSP back in 2011.

Now, with regards to the important part of your message, I'm begging people to realize that if they're blindly trusting all code running on all firmware in their personal machine, they are even worse at accurately internalizing risk than those who are proactively paranoid.

In one of those games, Nieman was losing by 1.3 points in the first 10 moves despite being 100% according to this analysis so I'll take it with a grain of salt. This only looks at having moves within the top 3 engine moves done by one of the engines tested, and sometimes there's just 1-2 good moves so doing 1 out of 10 (or whatever) possible moves doesn't mean you did anything good. Further, it's unclear how cherry-picked it is. If it was that obvious I'd think the other analysis would've caught it which they didn't.

You can find more discussion of it on reddit, but the threads are generally all over the place.

> He's admitted to cheating at 12 years old and at 16 years old (just 3 years ago)

I see the pattern forming. He clearly has improved his play since but he could also have improved the cheating technique, as others pointed out, just needing a hint or two in the most decisive moments of the game. Has he not cheated against Magnus it's a pity that he got accused with no proofs.

My only guess is it's an attempt to tackle inflation by stimulating the supply side. That's the most charitable explanation I can come up with for the reasoning.
Carlson already has enough $ to retire, and he certainly would have nothing to gain from such a "spectacle for the masses". His place as #1 in the world (and arguably, history) is not threatened by Hans.
You mean Magnus?
And don't forget, the plugin API has some super strong limitations. I wish that was fixed, otherwise platforms "similar to wordpress" can never become a thing on Go
Learning is often a byproduct of play, but the actual point of play is highly subjective to whoever is doing the playing. Although, in my experience, if you need to learn something, making it into a game is a highly effective and fun way to go about something that might otherwise be pretty dull.
Belittling the community, calling them teenagers, and telling them to "get over it" doesn't actually materialize $1,600 to be able to buy the card though. Especially right in the middle of a period of inflation and economic downturn. And then there's the competition Nvidia is in with themselves given then glut of used 3090 cards on the market, and the 3090 was only selling priced so high because of crypto mining in the first place, and that's gone now.

Who knows, maybe you're right or maybe Nvidia's in for a valley, or Nvidia will end up dropping their prices.
edf is owned by the french government the french government says they moving away from investing in the future of nuclear; the media permanently relayed it, you the CEO of EDF. what would you do? shareholders matter when i say shareholders I mean all shareholder including one of the majority owner, not even talking about the fact that germany and EU permanently pushed for more privatization of energy and constantly undermined nuclear in the EU. 5 years ago macron main goal was to CLOSE 15 reactors. after 5 years he wants to open guess how many? 15 reactors. I mean you can turn around the issue but he needs to be held accountable
Which are totally subjective. And they dont really make sense. He thought he was too relaxed? How would cheating OTB against Carlsen be relaxing? Carlsen is being really unprofessional here, even if he turns out to be correct. But the window has closed - we will never have evidence that he was cheating at this tourney.

There's no need to represent fractions of a turn as binary fractions, since you don't ever need more than 1 turn. You can represent fractions of a turn as (pair of integer) rationals, and round on the rare occasion that the denominator gets too big.

it seems most of the tools for running postgresql in K8s seem to just default to creating a new copy of the DB at the drop of a hat. When your DB is in the multi-TB sizes, that can come with a noticable cost in network fees, plus a very long delay, even on modern fast networks.

There are huge numbers of good apps on the store that don’t get visibility.
The use of recency as a proxy for quality or usefulness is one of the more perverse trends of recent years, but it's understandable. There is just so much of everything that a strong demand is created for any method of filtering.

Of course I have to add that it does matter a lot for certain types of software. Anything that interacts with ever-changing APIs, hardware specs, and protocols needs to be kept up at least frequently enough to stay useful.
Look, maybe he did not cheat but it's hard to prove he didn't nor that he did. The fact that historically he's not blemish free makes it harder to celebrate his victory. Tough luck indeed..
Jenkins/Travis are getting to this point, not that they are the "cutting edge" or anything. I'd personally rely on projects like woodpecker/drone/dagger so that there's no real "rely" on anything closed source or proprietary.
Interesting how in the 90s the concern was GM's where helping the machines (Kasparaov vs Deep Blue), and today the concern is the machines are helping the GMs.
Just the fact he fled to Russia

He didn't flee to Russia. He was en-route to somewhere in South America when his passport was cancelled during a flight changeover while he was in Moscow. He couldn't fly onwards without a valid passport. IIRC, he was stuck in the Moscow airport for days until the Russians allowed him a visa.

Yep. Here ya go: He was stuck in the transit area of Moscow airport for 40 days. (Longer than I remembered.)

I imagine that this was posted in response to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32978355 being on HN's front page, and in particular in response to the questions around that (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32979901). That's all fine.

What's not fine is that you editorialized the title. The phrase "Epstein's Edge.org" appears nowhere in OP's title or even the article body. That's against the site guidelines, which ask: "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. In this case you edited it to certainly make it more linkbaity, and arguably more misleading as well. We take submission privileges away from accounts that do that.

We also, and especially, take submission privileges away from accounts that are using HN primarily for ideological battle. That's also against the HN guidelines, because it's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. You've been doing that a lot lately. If you'd please stop, we'd appreciate it.
I’m a marketing director, not CTO, so take this with a grain of salt. But I believe leaders should be “good enough” in a wide array of disciplines. Certainly the disciplines involved in their department, but also, frankly, every aspect of the business.

Meaning a CTO should also be good (not great) at sales, marketing, cash flow, customer service, user experience design, etc.

Being well rounded means being able to garner the respect of not only the engineers but all stakeholders, from internal people to the customers to the general public, too.

I’m certainly not arguing that a great engineer won’t make a great CTO. It should probably the area they’re strongest in.

But if I had to pick between an amazing engineer who knows nothing about the rest of the business, or a reasonably knowledgeable CTO who is also reasonably knowledgeable on all other fronts, I’d pick the latter every time. No hesitation.

There is a caveat to this, though. Being a generalist means recognizing that on any given topic, someone knows better than we do. So you have to be able to recognize that and defer to expertise, while also completing the picture by thinking about all the variables that lead to a business being successful.

I’ve met plenty of engineers (and designers and copywriters, etc etc) who think everyone else’s roles are easily understood and accomplished. That’s fine if you’re a specialist. But a leader needs to understand the big picture, and no one is an expert in all areas. It’s just not possible, by my estimation.

I wonder if you plotted "risk/reward" behavior during that same time if you'd get a similar curve, just going to show that adolescents are bad at risk/reward calculations.
I dont know why but from outside a lot of it looks like managers own you. Glad i took the path of contracting instead of slaving away at “faang”.
Repeat offender, he's admitted to cheating at age 12 and once again at age 16. Let's not cast this into something melodramatic like a "path to redemption", it is just chess after all, and the right decision is probably for him to be perma-banned, otherwise you're just going to end up with more and more of these types of situations.
On the other side of the coin, "meditation" seems to be gaining popularity these days. It promises to make you more in-control of your attention and less vulnerable to the various powers of marketing.

But then they butcher meditation into a product, package it in an app and rent it to you by the month. Lol.

Google "meditation monetization". Smell the unironic gushing and marketspeak.

The choices on the ballot were to join Russia or wait a year and then join Russia. If you have armed men come to your house and tell you to sign a piece of paper, that's not a vote.

The purpose of the exercise is not even to attempt a legalistic show of unity. Its only purpose is to mock the very concept of voting, freedom, self determination, a future of anything other than state terrorism.
That's... convenient for approximately our specific arbitrary position in the universe, but not mathematicallly natural.

Years and years of "nobody needs AVX-512" and "linus says it's just for benchmarks, he worked at transmeta two decades ago, he knows better than Lisa Su" hot takes down the tubes ;)
I’ve had two jobs where I reported directly to the CTO - the first as Dev lead with people management responsibilities and the second as the de facto “cloud architect” that was responsible for the “application modernization” initiatives.

My second CTO was very technical and up to date the first wasn’t. The only difference between the two day to day was with the second one, I could use terms without defining them first. They both deferred to my technical judgement and I worked with the understanding of how to align my initiatives with the company’s.

I work with CxOs all the time in consulting now. I have no problem getting my ideas through CxOs or architecture review boards.
The "200 points difference means 25% chance to win" breaks down at the highest levels. It works fine near the middle of the bell curve -- i.e. 800-2000 Elo -- but once you get to 2200 Elo you are talking about the >99th percentile. For example, I don't know of a single 2400 player who can score an average of 0.25 against 2600 players.

Even at my own mediocre level of 1800, I definitely do not score 0.25 against 2000 rated players. More like 0.1 if I'm feeling sharp.
How can a game be no-stakes and also rating-boosting?

It sounds like he's saying he cheated to get to where he was going faster, but that he would have gotten there eventually so it's fine.

It would be like Armstrong saying he only cheated during trials and training.
But then you suddenly have complexity again. In your various comments here you're talking about ten different tools and concepts being woven together. It's only fast for you because you've done it before.

Not inherently faster than OP's approach.

Like, I can spin up a k8s cluster faster than I can even understand what parts of Nextjs I should use. Doesn't mean that me selecting k8s is the best choice for all problems.
> are devices that small capable enough?

yes, the tech is there

But yes, I agree that Carlsen should have just refused to play Hans after Sinquefield
It's also worth pointing out that a player's odds of making the perfect move are inverse to their opponent's ELO: as the level of play rises, finding the right play becomes exponentially harder. The data suggests he's sometimes playing other grandmasters as good as those grandmasters would play a rando on Lichess.
If only there was some way to find out, about pages, google etc.

Don't be lazy, it means you post stuff like that and look stupid.
the gist seems to be that he has unrealistically high correlation with game-engine recommendations, often all the way up to 100%, but only when playing "tough" opponents, and far lower / realistic correlation scores (around 50%) in other games.

for reference, magnus carlsen's correlation score at his peak averages around 70% (according to the video)
