What are some good graduation project ideas?
My graduation project is due next semester, and I need to come up with a project idea. Do you have any suggestions?

Why “Go Nuts, Show Nuts” Doesn’t Work in 2022
Doh! You are right, of course. My head is stuck in the standard doubling approach. You are pre-copying into an upcoming buffer.

Which, as you say, is going to be weird with the language model, since the "same" thing exists in two different places. In C++, it would encounter problems with either a destructor or a copy constructor.

I still think it's a cool trick for a realtime setup for arrays of trivial types.

Ads, group think and social belonging/inclusion. That is just stating the obvious, but yes the problems of this event came from the issues you list.

On a side I wonder why it is so hard to make event software like this. I looked at reimplementing a race manager used to track times for cars in Pinewood Derby rally for something akin to this, it take a lot of work to make it "usefull". Especially considering the index card solution mentioned for Swiss pairing seems to be such an easy concept when done manually.

The racing manager software was called DerbyNet, and works great for its purpose.
Very happy! Fastmail has been very reliable, the web UI is good, and the native app is nice. I do admit that I haven’t had the opportunity to put their spam filters to the test because my email comes primarily through gmail first.

Was my post confusing? Nothing you've written can't be done with an Android phone with a keyboard attachment. When is this super important general purpose computing thingy supposed to come into play?
Wow, that's a really ... neat platform [1]! Amazing work by Fabien of course, but being him that is kind of expected at this point I guess. Heh.

The platform was active during 1988-1995 in the arcades. Some of the most famous games might be "Ghouls'n Ghosts", "U.N. Squadron", "Final Fight", "Carrier Air Wing", "Street Fighter II: The World Warrior" and "Pang! 3".

Basic specs (simplified):

- Main CPU is a Motorola 68000 at 10 MHz

- Sound (!) CPU is a Z80 at 3.6 MHz

- 384x224 pixels at 4096 colors

- 256 sprites per scanline, each 16x16 pixels

Very cool. Are there any demos (quick googling didn't turn up any).

You absolutely can use Postgres for this. There are extensions for the auditing. You could rig something up with triggers for the notifications or use Supabase depending on how realtime you want to be. Much of the decision comes down to the ops side and how/where you're going to manage it, because Postgres will eat up this use case for breakfast no problem.
I've been saving 20-25% for 10 years. I'm nowhere close to that sort of money.
This feels very not-reusable to me. Guys has an idea that protocol buffers are the way to go. Cool but in many cases you really want to put a queue in front of things like email sending etc. And if you make email microservice that can't handle attachment it again isnt reusable.

I would be more in favour of having option to point every service at a rabbitmq queue to listen on and have a format of message that containes the delivery report queue to use when email is sent to notify rest of the system.

And here we come to conclusion, everyone has his own idea. This is who it is hard to make really good reusable micro services unless each of them becomes not so micro.

Nice that people try but i'm still in the camp of building from lego bricks provided in libs and creating my own microservices in a way I see them interconnect fit for given project. It might be protobuf, http or qeueue systems.

None of that is relevant. My point is that if you accept a time and materials contract with an expected working day clause then it’s unethical to double book time and in no way a reflection on the employer or hirer.

More likely because low-level artificial limitation are in place, preventing the full use of the device.
> Immigrants from 3rd world countries with zero formal education, zero real family experience with building wealth, save money like crazy in the US.

There's "building wealth" and there's just responsible money handling. Normal families handle money in responsible manner (have savings, avoid debt etc.) and such behaviors are passed to children. Pathological families can be doing all kinds of crazy things with their money - take up expensive debt for frivolous reasons, spend the whole salary up front and go hungry until the next one arrives, lose houses over small things (e.g. a guy in my family traded a large apartment for a much smaller one, a bottle of vodka and a dog) etc. Their lives is chaos, and that includes the financial aspect of it. A child in such conditions really can have no idea that it's not a normal way to handle money, and that it can be done much better.
Women have told me their had longer, heavier, more painful periods after the vaccines came out. This includes those who were not vaccinated, but worked with people who had been vaccinated.

I think there's more to dig up on this subject and it will reflect poorly on the FDA when it comes out.
Sorry, I should have made it clear from the start that I was regarding nazy Germany and fascist Italy as the "fascist regimes", Franco's Spain being fascist is debated (seems to have changed throughout time, see [1]). Interesting point for Spain though, direct religious implication in governments always seems to go wrong.

Coming back to the encyclic, I think it did have an impact, judging by the measurable refusal of Nazism in Catholic counties as mentioned in my previous comment. The Catholic Church had strong moral authority, and this kind of condemnation was rare: the Red Cross for instance did not raise any [2].

Edit: grammar.
Good point but it's not exactly a free lunch. You're trading memory for the speedup.

You can also use radix sort for what I'd like to call "fake" O(n) sort since physical hardware puts an upper limit on the hidden constant.

slow animation to slide back into your field of view

I have a special section in my uBlock user rules, and it is full of annoyances like this.

Another one is an element with popup on hover, but you can only close it by hover-unhover a popup itself. Fly across such element by accident and enjoy your semi-modal “no idea how to get rid of”-popup without even clicking anywhere.
Lol what bad faith? How? I read the article and the guardian article yesterday... All I did was ask a clarifying question. The world isn't out to get you
Is it really that sad? Closed software/hardware won't get support (official nor community) for things until the maintainer of the software adds it, and people who buy that kind of hardware is more than aware of this pitfall (and in fact, see it as a benefit sometimes too).
the problem, as with everything, is marketing.

everyone here missed the blackberry priv and key2 (not key2-le subversion).

they were android flagships with same cpu/memory as the samsung du jour. but with a keyboard that doubled as a touchpad. and no bloatware, pure android.

the key2 is only now being left out of security upgrades.

absolutely nobody here heard of them. coded on them regularly (keyboard only missed a esc and tab, but easily to work around as it had a ctrl key)

I'm sadly typing this on a samsung s-large-number. i hate every second of it and only scroll content. marketing is the intelectual class war we don't recognize.
What is stopping you from adapting AOSP to have better keyboard integration? Android has been modified before to adapt to folding screens, tablets and multiple screens.
I don't mean to completely discredit your sentiment.

However, I'm making this comment on an MNT Reform. It has served wonderfully as my only laptop for the last year. I'd love to know about equally successful laptops that actually shipped, combining the same set of ideals that were important to me: Open hardware (to a further extent than something like Framework) & tough build quality.

Their assets would be property of their inheritors, just as everywhere else.
In the worst case, you need to insert every element into your set to find out if there's no duplicate hence it'll take O(n log n) too
Converting weights to float16 after training will reduce quality/accuracy whereas mixed precision has a negligible effect on quality/accuracy and dramatically improves performance.

If you really just want to save memory, there's plenty of other low hanging fruit. It's just not a priority for most devs since mid tier GPUs start at 10GB whereas a typical model only has 0.5GB weights. Activations and intermediate calculations use way more memory.
That's why in the past we have almost switched from mainframe to cluster. Or the society in the past was connected BUT far less interdependent on anything central than today.

Take cars: any car can fail at any point in time, but as long as they are individual cars, not centrally managed the likelihood is low, is far lower if they are also diverse in tech (for instance some relay on some technology, some on some others, so a scarcity in fossil fuels a day and a solar EM storm another not affect all of them at once).

Nowadays I just start going serious on BEV, not because they are ecological (they aren't at all) nor because their are sustainable on scale (they are not, again) or better (marginally, since can act with my home BUT not as they should nor easily as a home emergency battery far larger than the one I already have stationary, but limited lifespan and range are big minus) and well... I'm DISGUSTED to a point I think that if I'm a dictator I'll BAN THEM ALL, not BEVs in particular but new cars on sale now in general, arresting their designers and managers for crimes against humanity. Really. The amount of crappyness and surveillance capitalism inside is so sky high that ALL apical figures involved must be sentenced for many years even for life for their crimes.

Technology per se is not the issue, the way is pushed and chose is. For instance design chargers of nth different vendors, demanding mth different Android/iOS ONLY crapplications and "cards" to charge, designing cars in ways that NO practical diagnostic for the formal owner is possible but complexity and bad design are so high that's hard trying a car even a single time without spotting not one but MANY bugs. That's not technology that's just a deliberate crime.
Well... sorting a shuffled deck of cards can be done in O(1) time.

def sort(self):

def __getitem__(i):

I don't really expect folks to keep up with chess drama, but Magnus is not the only player accusing Hans of cheating. A few of his other opponents have also described his play as peculiar. Hans has been recently banned twice from chess.com for cheating, and his current coach has also been caught doing the same.
Well, when I faced a similar problem (organizing large table tennis tournaments) which exceeded the limit of the usual free android apps (max 10 players), I prepared beforehand these two apps.

And in one cases I even needed it then, because too many players showed up. Using a lame closed-source app causes always sweat, so I'm better well prepared.

No, the point is can't do it with kilotons otherwise. but at least terajoules are consistent with other units of energy. If there's no familiar reference point then why use random units?
Interesting analogy with overfitting, though I would say this is more of an underfitting problem? i.e. we have enough 'training data' to know places where our current model fails (inconsistencies as author puts it, such as dark matter). Therefore our inductive biases must be too strong/incorrect, and relaxing them to increase expressivity would be the typical ML approach here.

The author's point that we must not add complexity to solve "non-problems" is very consistent with the ML analogy, though again this would mainly be to avoid adding too much inductive bias and underfitting as well.
Just imagine that all this could have been avoided if we would start using email signing ;)
You usually can. But it can take some work if you're using any libraries that expect FP32 and it might be slower, depending on the GPU. The FP16 support isn't quite as good as FP32.
Ya it’s quite a read! Glad it can help your employer! :)

The dark side is you can see where his money came from so he could continue to do research in stuff he loved. It’s like if you are a dev and you get to code stuff for the army (missiles, planes, software to manage C&C…). Like you pitch how good you can improve the thermal detection of a missile thanks to the cutting edge models in machine learning.

Or like Google and the contract they tried to have. Things are different now. But still at the same time not so much!

I've seen people ask questions they can't answer on their own. Always ask self if you really want to work in a place that have this type of people in commanding positions.

Also given the saturation of the market with job offers YOU choose not they EMPLOYER. This might change in future but be aware of this current balance, you can game it.

Also even if you have infinite skill you might be not liked by random reason. That happens, bad/good days happen, interview is harder for interviewer than interviewee usually.

I have one running with a ~5TB big unpartitioned table.
Adding ~9M rows per day, with significant read load via 2 replicas. Works just fine on a 32 GB memory RDS instance.
There is another table half the amount of rows and I join the two 1000s of times a day.

Took a bit of fiddling around to have things run stable. Currently migrating to Redshift, which has stellar performance but comes with its own problems.
This needs Windows 10/11 though?

> In fact, you're assuming explosives were planted, and someone didn't use a smart torpedo of some sort.

I think planted explosives makes more sense; it would leave less/no identifiable debris behind.
You're just wrong. Yes, US manufacturing is mostly high-value-add stuff. Because wages are high. Don't go into hock to start a toothpick factory in the USA. But go look up how many people are employed in manufacturing. 67,000 does not move the needle, though it's probably a lot as a percentage of new jobs.

And automotive and aerospace are not the two biggest sectors of US manufacturing. (Boeing was the largest exporter for years though, probably still is). Look it up.

I think you get bombarded with hate because of the larger problem of extreme polarization on social media. All subtlety is lost, you are associated with the one anti-science group, opposed to the one pro-science group.
It's astonishing a party wants to increase immigration to get more voters for its side. I thought parties should win by having better policies that win over existing voters, not by abandoning them and diluting them with new voters.
> a fresh grad who prepares for 2 weeks for those whiteboard interviews will completely outclass known most productive programmers and engineers in the world (take whatever example you want, I would name someone like John Carmack) who takes the test fresh and unprepared

This extreme take is highly unlikely. World class programmers are typically extremely good in maths (and possibly have an active interest in it)/algorithms, and problem solving in general. In addition to J.Carmack (who is definitely very good in linear algebra and problem solving), another random example is F.Bellard (who calculated the largest known prime, and most digits of pi). L.Torvalds is surely extremely good with algorithms, S.Wozniak with problem solving (given his extremely good design skills in electronic engineering); another one that comes to my mind is P.Bonzini, with his 40 GB/S fizzbuzz :)
The infrastructure isn't free. The gas flowing through it also isn't free.

Years and billions were invested in that infrastructure.

IMO, the sheer cost would make that an overly-elaborate spectacle.
All of that is basically standard library over HTTP

My experience is that most developers tend to guess at performance and throw away numbers they disagree with. As a result performance testing is only something product owners care about.
It happened in their "exclusive economic zones", not territorial waters. Very bad, but still leaves some place for manoeuvre.
I just heard energy analyst krutikhin explain on the news that Gazprom could have blown them up using so called "pigs", maintenance drones that move through the pipes.
Why would that be the only other option? That's exactly the same kind of hoop-jumping, perhaps even a little more honest.

This is exactly what I was talking about above. The solution for a known-to-be-broken system isn't another known-to-be-broken one, and it isn't keeping the broken system because it's already in place.

Development isn't about rote memorisation or slavishly repeating past mistakes. Knowing the Voight-Kampff algorithm doesn't make you a good developer, nor does claiming 20 years of experience with a decade-old technology, nor does being the CEO's nephew. All of those things provide (at best) a totally irrelevant signal.

What if we used better methods? Ones that actually assessed and evaluated the skills/traits necessary to do the job well? Ones that couldn't be gamed as easily by "grinding". I'm not saying there's globally-applicable silver bullet just waiting to go, but there are definitely avenues to explore.

One process I went through quite recently asked me to bring along a single line of code I'd written - any language, any project. Then we had a conversation about it: what it actually did, how it fitted into its context, why I'd written it like that. It provided me with an opportunity to show my understanding, and for the interviewer to probe particular areas they were focused on. I enjoyed the process, and I could see how it was providing relevant information to them.

Again, it's an imperfect process, but I think there's potentially a lot of mileage in 'talking to developers' when hiring them, with any number of different twists. At the very least, we should be experimenting and trying to find a fit-for-purpose process.
What's your suggestion for those who'll attend Web Summit for the first time?
What's your advice to those who have never been to Web Summit but will be there this year?

Our team attended the conference last year and our main observations and advices were that

- Get to know where you stay

- Prepare to stand out

- You never know who’s paying attention

- Time passes by at Web Summit, fast

- You’ll have a tough time selling at Web Summit

- You’ll leave Web Summit with new connections

What are your thoughts?

Nope. There are instructions for Windows, Linux and Apple Silicon in the readme: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui

There's also this fork of AUTOMATIC1111's fork, which also has a Colab notebook ready to run, and it's way, way faster than the KerasCV version: https://github.com/TheLastBen/fast-stable-diffusion

(It also has many, many more options and some nice, user-friendly GUIs. It's the best version for Google Colab!)
Some of the public charger networks have offerings to manage that for you. You can task Chargepoint to install and maintain a charging facility on your premises for instance. This way you just need to organise the parking and the access to the connection, but everything else is outsourced.
The key is the keyboard is integrated and foldable, it's the convenience and portability that is key. With an android (with two exceptions), you have to have two separate pieces, something to put them on and then pair and charge both parts.

In short: You can pull it out of your pocket anywhere, type something with both thumbs on a full keyboard, then fold it down again in seconds.

There are Android phones with a full keyboard as well, but they are closed source/hardware.
It's not something that you can easily abstract away from the application's concerns without a significant performance penalty. For the most basic CRUD operations, an ORM could probably do a decent job. Surely someone has already written an ORM that supports sharding?

Beyond CRUD, I'm not so sure, and any application that's big enough to use sharding probably has some pretty complicated queries. At that point you really don't want to be depending on a library to handle the low level details. You need to think about the performance implications of the access patterns and the trade-offs inherent in different design choices. If a library makes these choices for you then you are unlikely to get optimal results.
