Not only that, in my experience, the support is fanatical in nature. I often get downvoted and flagged for daring to state the obvious, which is that Apple is positioning itself to become one of the largest companies in the Ad space. It's probably more than just great marketing / PR (at least - of the usual kind).
Potentially! The trouble with these machines is they don't have a factory serial port. There were a few companies that made serial port expansions for this generation of machines. Check out GeeThree Stealth Port, Griffin gPort, and Jamport for potential options
ASML is the closest thing to the planet Dune in our world. Chips made with their machines extend life. Chips made with their machines expand consciousness. And he who controls the chips, controls the universe. The information universe, at least. I just wish for a messiah to arrive who leads the jihad against FAANG. The Kwisatz-RISC-V-Haderach. The Voice from the Open Source World. Fortunately, he need not fell Mark Zuckerberg in single combat with crysknife in order to lead our people to true freedom.

Unless you are a founder, awarding stock to employees has two ramifications in the US:

1. It is considered compensation, so it is taxable. Employees don’t like digging into savings to pay taxes.

2. It is difficult to value and is dilutive to investors at a time they don’t want to be diluted.

Options are typically tied to an event, like an acquisition.

Usually, the investors and founders have leverage in the deal which in turn pays for the options.

Good luck!
I think that's the norm for all app-based / gig-economy work
You haven’t cited any data. Review the Vox article and linked study within it. You won’t address any of this.

Even if they 10x their production you are talking about 200 of the same machine max per year. Nowhere near the numbers where proper industrial automation would make much sense.

Also who would be buying these machines if they 10x their production? They go into fabs that costs 10 to 20 billion to build. Let’s say you put 10 of them in each fab. It would still require 150 billion in fab investments every year. There is demand but not that much demand (or capacity to build the fabs)

Hell you can pick up an XBox 360 for $20 on eBay and it will run better than a Nintendo Switch. Also the controller won't break after 30 hours of usage, unlike the Switch.
Correct. OChem represents a shift from atom based thinking to electron arrangement based thinking. You kind of learn this before with orbitals and simple stuff like Cl's 7 electrons+ H's 1 electron = 8 electrons, a full shell! That is why halogens make great acids. But this is only the simplest form.

OChem is much more about how electrons move during reactions. Carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen are simple atoms, but their electrons can be arranged in so many ways. Concepts like electrophilic and nucleophilic are introduced to help model these interactions. You can memorize OChem reactions based on atoms, but its much easier to comprehend once you start looking the electrons in the bonds as the important bit and atoms are just a place to put them.
>> Sure legal systems are nice, but they are not required for Bitcoin to work. That's evidenced by the widespread use of Bitcoin in darknet markets for example.

Widespread use by criminals does not mean that it is good for society at large. If Bitcoin is the preferred payment technology for ransoms, illegal drugs, and CSAM then maybe it needs to be regulated?

100% agreed on all points. Evading the Phoenix on its terminal guidance near max range should be a viable strategy for avoiding it due to the bleed of kinetic energy. Though like the HARM (which an F-16 Wild Weasel pilot _hated_ due to the huge plume of smoke it creates; listen to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EI2rYxMPHM), it should be launched at high altitude for the best probability of a kill at long range.
Not having kids, I feel like a family clears up the optimization problem of:

As a software dev with a flexible schedule, my life feels arbitrary. I pick up hobbies because I need stuff to do, I try to eat better to take care of myself, I save money and live frugally for a rainy day. But there's no common thread to all these. It's just stuff I picked.

I run an eLearning company and Gamification is mostly a gimmick unfortunately even though customers eat it up and it sells good. When asked how it helps, their answer usually can be interpreted as "We do boring stuff and users are forced to interact in the platform so we want to try and make it interesting even though they couldn't care less". One example "Compliance training in orgs".

I don't think that's obvious at all. This first came up a while ago here I think. Even after having the time to think about it, it's still not obvious.

The search page for coffee says "Page 1 of about 3,600,000,000 results"

How are we to know that we can't load page 360,000,000? Maybe it's obvious if you're familiar with search engine internals/algorithms, which the vast majority of people won't be.
Personally I would suggest removing that kind of section entirely. The problem is those adjectives will never be consistent from one person to another. Focus on what you've done, the tools you used, and the impact it had.

There may not be a massive impact, outside of yourself, and that's okay especially if you're learning. It's still useful to say what's different after your work.
Ah, right.

>"Who We Are and How We Got Here" by David Reich

IMHO, I'd take the conclusions offered here with a grain of salt. It's applying statistical methods to very improbable events (ancient bones surviving with DNA) to determine other very improbable events (evolutionary DNA change). The conclusions at least somewhat rest on the assumption that those two things have relatively consistent probabilities. That could be true but it's probably not and if it's not it's somewhat unclear how that would bias the results that the book draws its conclusions from.

What routerl said. Skipping out on root cause analysis by stopping as soon as you find something actionable. Those shallow analyses often result in a much bigger cleanup project that is also much less effective. Great for empire building, not so great for progress.

It just so happens that I usually catch people at this when they only have 3 Whys mapped out. There's something going on there but I'm not sure I understand the mechanics.
Definitely not tied to any event in this case.
they're not trying to estimate GDP though (absolute value), they're trying to estimate GDP increase (relative value). I agree estimating the absolute value would be erroneous. However, estimating an increase is less so. Other issues you mention are circumstantial - and that's why companies doing this estimation have specific experts on politics, economy, and so on. It's not just some geek with python going gdp[country] = bright_pixels * 0.18
Yes, that's fair and true -- they promised the scanning would self-limit to content being synched with iCloud.

But I think that's pretty thin gruel, since now you're just a feature-flag (or even a bug) away from all content being scanned. More broadly, the entire endeavor is very much at odds w/ the sentiment expressed in their public advertising.
Yes, Drax alleged that the logs turned into pellets were waste.

What the journalists could have done is to not follow the truck that was certain to take logs to process them into pellets, but instead follow random trucks taking logs from the site and see where they are destined to. If they did it, and then claimed that all trucks from the site went to pellet plant, that would have made this article much more heavy hit. Given that the article does not allege (despite confusing language) that every, or even majority of the logs were turned into pellets, I conclude that it is more likely that they were not.
why do you think this? nothing in the article indicates this, and Google's questionable search results (compared to what they once were) has been a nearly constant topic of discussion for years now
This is just awesome. I prompted Midjourney and Dall-e 2 ealier and the outcome was rather amusing.

If you're hoping to participate in the SEO game, you have to utilize google's javascript analytics code. Their code collects and reports on a variety of user activity. It's safe to assume (based on google published articles [1]) that the data collected is used to influence the site's rankings.

That's not really how things work in a modern context. Today we have to distinguish between the people making the stuff, who really may "believe" in their product, and the people advertising those same products, who don't care, and who aren't the ones creating anything of value.

As a shoemaker, you might think your shoe is the best shoe on the market. Google doesn't care which is the best shoe. Google simply sells a product, namely, a credulous audience, to the shoemakers, who want buyers. And their ecosystem is bent toward improving that product. The shoemakers' noble ends don't justify the evil means of the advertisers.

This is kinda what I take the old adage to mean, "If you're not paying for the product, you are the product." You might think that Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, etc. are free services because they don't cost you money. But that's like saying that a stay at the butcher's is free for the cow. They're not free at all; advertisers have to pay good money for access to their product, which is you.

Or so my view goes :) I could be wrong though.

"Do you honestly think that the people who complain about their favorite website being censored by Google would be satisfied with showing up on page 200*?"

My complaint has nothing to do with my favorite website. My complaint has to do with not being able to discover information and websites because Google won't allow me to dig very far into their search results. They're spidering the vast majority of the internet, and all I get are crumbs.
Cool, let me know when either of them has a positive earnings per share.

I'm still a bit surprised that we don't see more investor pressure for many of these companies to demonstrate that they actually can turn a profit.

I get it, when Uber was just in SF, the argument was "don't worry about profit, just grow until you eat the entire industry... then you turn on the profit switch". But here we are, Uber has IPO'd, is in every city in the US and many countries around the world, and has only one major competitor which the WSJ claims is "eating their dust".

When do you flip that profit switch if not now?

The most obvious reason I can think for not flipping the switch is there is none. Still very curious when, if ever, the market will care.
I think I will pass on reading those...

You can distill the gist of a book down to a few notable paragraphs which you then memorize and integrate into your life. I've done it with 100s of books. You have to read the entire book though, so you can't really cheat here by skimming, then cherry picking something interesting. There is a fallacy that whole books have to be inculcated into your life. In my case, a paragraph will do.
Sure -- ads are a billion dollar industry so apparently they are getting some people to spend money they wouldn't have otherwise, what is says about me is that I don't think I'm somehow uniquely immune to them. Naturally, like most technically inclined people, I've adjusted to this vulnerability by using an ad blocker.
>Because you've been lucky. The flu can and does kill healthy young people.

That's about as rare as getting struck by lightning though. And knowing that I will likely get sick if I get the flu shot, and also knowing that I have very rarely gotten the flu, then the question becomes do I want to get sick with flu-like symptoms every other year with the shot or every 10 years without.

As I get older this will no doubt change, but for now I'm not scared of dying from the flu anymore than I am of getting bitten by a shark or struck by lightning.

Apple is blocking conversion tracking for third parties.

Think of this:
1.Fb shows an ad for angry birds
2. user installs the app
3. user opens the app and makes a ping to fb to tell user with idfa xyz opened the app.

The problem is not that only apple gets (2), but it is that because it gets (2), it thinks it should be able to dictate how (3) happens. Since apple is the only one doing (2), it puts everyone else at a disadvantage.

And since apple doesn't have web ads business, it sees no problem killing that altogether through att as well.
But results about matches don't stay on the phone, which I think is clearly a violation of the statement (unless you are interpreting it in an extremely literal way).
You can still work like that. You just don't have to bother changing your project id, and switch accounts to jump to other projects. I do this for some things I work on where there are account level controls and the accounts cant be shared across projects.
This post says that Craigslist uses "a chunk of bloated JavaScript to render something as simple as a collection of images" without describing the bloat or even saying how big it is. Then it offers an alternative solution that is actually more bloated because it loads all full-sized images that are in a gallery. Craigslist will only load full-sized images once the user starts interacting with the gallery, but also offers much smaller thumbnails first. The lack of thumbnails on the author's version also makes it harder to navigate since you have to scroll through each image to see it rather than just seeing the thumbnails below
Sr. cloud computing researcher | Chicago, IL | ONSITE
(indep. research group based out of University of Chicago)

Disclosure: I left my position on this research team this summer after a pleasant 4 years. It's quite a different environment than one normally might find on these listings.

The Nimbus team[1] is funded by multiple grants from the National Science Foundation and concentrates on building accessible, powerful cloud infrastructure for the comp sci research community. Our users are folks who are doing work that cannot be done on commercial clouds for a variety of reasons (lack of low-level access, performance variability too high, cost $$, etc.) We work with stuff like OpenStack, Kubernetes, Liqid, and are always exploring new things, like how to build a distributed edge/IoT testbed, and how to enable practical reproducibility of CS experiments.

I think more development talent should consider working in science/research. There are lots of opportunities and I don't think they are often advertised well.

The job is in Chicago but we work largely remote. Still, in-person has been preferred especially as sometimes it's helpful to work with collaborators at the Argonne National Laboratory west of Chicago. Happy to answer more in pm.

> then I have about 2.5 hours of "free time" before I have to go to bed and repeat the process.

When I was younger, I switched to a 4x10s schedule for this exact reason. The limited time left after commute (long at the time) and other obligations at the end of the day felt wasted.

Somewhat surprisingly, I felt better when I decided that my 4 work days per week would be solid work/chores/obligations from morning to night. It no longer felt like I was missing out on anything because I wasn't trying to squeeze some hobby or social activity into a tired 2-3 hour slot at the end of the day. My free time and my work time were as separate as they could possibly get.

Even intra-day flexibility doesn't really solve the problem of having too much to do. My solution was to squish all of the to-dos together and leave my off days 100% flexible.

Even now, I try to finish errands and chores on weekdays for this same reason: Keeping weekends open is extremely valuable.

Have the search engines given up on search? Also, can they really say they're being gamed if they're serving the same results up multiple times? Seems more like they're picking winners.

This search is pretending like <40 results is hundreds of results, and someone had to make the effort to make sure that the same link wouldn't show up in the same page of results. That strikes me as a deliberate falsification.

edit:

As far as I can tell from

https://www.google.com/search?q=dog+food+nutrition

it seems like google are doing a hell of a lot better. Google is also banned from setting cookies or using localstorage on my machine, so the result isn't search bubbled. Nothing about soy or peaches, and no repeats are jumping out at me even 100 results in.
For a website, the question should be why not use SQLite.

I thought age was a factor. In my youth I had way more patience for the likes of Harvest Moon, and enjoyed the roleplay. However, I didn't know what to expect. I wanted to develop and customize the virtual property, pursue virtual relationships. At a certain point you can't help but see the games for what they are. I quickly grew bored with the repetitive menial tasks. I liked the "idea" of a game like that, but not what it amounted to. Now I can say the same for most jrpgs.
Maybe I was wrong in phrasing it as I intended, but I meant that "almost everybody" is obsessed with taking photos of himself/friends especially in special moments but not necessarily post then on social media.
