I suspect otherwise.

One of the challenges of a social network, especially in a declining phase, is that there is far less commercial value being generated at the same time that various sorts of costs, including attacks on the network in both technical and social/economic senses increase. High-value members abandon the network, and those who remain are either stuck (say, because of institutional circumstances elsewhere), or are actively seeking to exploit other members.

This means that Trust & Safety costs are constantly increasing at the same time that recruiting talent to serve that role becomes increasingly difficult.

What the true cost curve looks like isn't clear, but basing your statement on a constant cost based on present experience is ... probably flawed.

This is especially true at Facebook's scale.

at one company we did a project wide daily standup on irc. all teams, about 50 people would report all at once at a specific time of day. there was a bot that would track that everyone has reported, and that was it. as a developer i would look at the report log to see if anyone was touching issues that i was working on, and if so possibly talk to that person later to see if there was anything we needed to coordinate. likewise i'd look if anyone reported blockers where i could help.

What is the ask that is overwhelmingly reasonable? As has been pointed out to me and others, Google already offers a way to turn off 2FA - https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1064203 Naively this seems like it should solve the 2FA problem for the unhoused community members in question.

With this in mind, what else should Google do?

Yeah, and we do escrow for large value things (houses). Other than that, since it's not well known, people don't bother with it for smaller things. Would you trust me if I told you I was the "escrow account" manager, heh?
If your political party documents and registration are under the name "The Pirate Party," you're quite literally the pirate party.
Agreed. But as Cox and Hinkley discuss, the likelihood principle is sometimes at odds with the repeated sampling principle, so in any particular application, you need to identify if there is a conflict, and if so, which principle is more important. In my domain (simple A/B tests), you can claw the repeated sampling principle from my cold, dead hands.

If your counting by number of edits that's basically a tautology:

People who edit wikipedia make more edits than people who don't edit Wikipedia. Well no shit.

If you want to do an apples to apples comparison, compare how many hours people edit wikipedia vs how many hours PhD candidates spend writing their dissertation. i think on average traditional accademia rewards obsessiveness much more than wikipedia does.

On the view of at least some Bayesians, "frequentist" is just the special case of "Bayesian" that you get when you are computing credences based on a large number of identically prepared, independent trials over a known sample space. So on this view (with which I tend to agree), the two are certainly not incompatible.

It is of course possible to do both frequentist and Bayesian statistics badly. I would say bad frequentism comes when one fails to realize that standard frequentist methods tell you the probability of the data given a hypothesis, when what you really need to know is the probability of the hypothesis given the data. Bayesianism at least starts right out with the latter approach, so it avoids the former (unforfunately all too common) error.

Bad Bayesianism, OTOH, I would say comes when one fails to realize that Bayes' rule is not a drop-in replacement for your brain. You still need to exercise judgment and common sense, and you still need to make an honest evaluation of the information you have. You can't just blindly plug numbers into Bayes' rule and expect to get useful answers.
Of course they can. It's the only thing they've ever done. I honestly can't think of a company that thinks less of its users than Google does - that's because in their view, they have no users - they only have eyeballs, that are worth anywhere from fractional cents to hundreds of dollars every time they can grab them.

Using "support" and "Google" in the same sentence is laughable. They barely support the ad clients that pay their freight. Google's entire business model is built around NEVER providing support for the users of their technologies, and killing off any products that don't monetize.
Satoshi and Le Roux both coded C++ but the code they wrote is very different, stylistically and otherwise (tabs vs. spaces, commenting style, approach to things like RNG). Linguistics tics are different in writings. Satoshi has an academic streak to him, he's probably some unknown dude in Germany. La Roux sometimes made grammar/spelling mistakes, Satoshi was pretty much always perfect. It's also strange that Le Roux, being a criminal kingpin with lots of operations, never implemented BTC use in any of his enterprises... why did he choose not to?

When the Dorian saga happened, Satoshi posted on p2pfoundation to clear up that Dorian wasn't him with his original account, I think Le Roux was in prison at that time. He's still in prison, he's been cooperating with the US government. US is definitely not letting him go anywhere for the shit he's done, everything from drug cartel work, helping Iranian and North Korean governments acquire weapons, etc.

One more delicious detail: Le Roux in a letter to SDNY judge wrote that he wants to invent ways to mine BTC efficiently. Really it comes down to the fact that Le Roux was involved with a whole bunch of stuff, and when you have this much surface area to scan you'd think you could come upon with just one strong piece of evidence... but there is nil, he's just another criminal warlord, luckily now in the custody of the US government: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCOURTS-ca2-20-03410/pd...
I'm on a remote team and we do a video call standup once a week and the other days we just post our updates to slack at the same time every day. Folks do tend to read each other's updates and add comments when they have input. It works reasonably well for us.
Author here! Spot instance pricing is better than on-demand, but it doesn't include data transfer, and it's still more expensive than on-prem/Hetzner/etc. Data transfer costs exceed the cost of the instance itself if you're transferring many TB off AWS.

For of our more popular AWS instance types I use – a c5a.24xlarge, used for comparison in the post – the cheapest spot price over the past month in us-east-1 was $1.69. That's still $1233.70/mo: above on-prem, colo, or Hetzner pricing. Data transfer is still extremely expensive.

That said, for bursty loads that can't be smoothed with a queue, spot instances (or just normal EC2 instances) do make sense! I use them all the time for my computational biology company.

this is well articulated. another key point: dall-e 2 uses 70% fewer parameters than dalle-e 1 while offering far higher quality.

DALL-E's model is a multimodal implementation of GPT-3 with 12 billion parameters which "swaps text for pixels", trained on text-image pairs from the Internet. DALL-E 2 uses 3.5 billion parameters, a smaller number than its predecessor.

You can just have a voluntary system wherein people decide beforehand how funds are distributed in the case of fraud.

That doesn't necessarily require a third party like a bank to surveil and supervise every transaction.
I always chuckle when I see some like basic logical steps slapped with "citation needed".
I never had one of those but came across them at school and friends houses - I could never get past that damn 9" monochrome screen.
This is so risky.

HN like to talk about how risky it is to use Google products as they will shut down - but this is 10 times riskier.

You depend on a closed system, with no guarantees, for a usage it was not originally designed for.

A. A huge chunk of lifelong professional developers are terrible
B. Even well paying jobs don't require you to do that much, it's the same crap over and over

I needed a set of tele pickups. I like the sound of YouTube guitarist Danish Pete's telecaster. I heard it had a Fender 'nocaster' bridge pickup in the bridge, and a 'twisted tele' in the neck. Fender only sell those as sets of two of each, so I would need to buy 4 pickups for the two I needed. List price is £200 for each set, and try and sell the unwanted pickups on ebay...but other people are already onto this and there are lots of the 'wrong' pickups listed.

Making your own is the obvious solution!

I have 2 strat projects I needed pickups for too, so it will begin to pay off. I reckon I broke even in equipment (but not time) after one pickup.

One of the huge problems with on-platform discussions is ... that the discussion itself dies with the platform, and any decisions or announcements disappear with it.

At the same time, based on my own personal experience, it is absolutely impossible to get people to move to another platform or service even for the purpose of discussing future plans.

My exceedingly strong advice is to have multiple points of presence defined as a matter of course, one of which should be a simple email list (which provides persistent contact information), regardless of any awareness of an impending platform shutdown.

Ask HN: Why don’t we have good Open Source Calendars?
I’m jumping through a lot of hoops for something that I assumed to have already been built by the collective effort of well meaning developers
If we all spent our collective efforts to make sure everything in this world is accessible to every single human being, we would have zero progress as a society. We are not even guaranteed the right to live in this world and yet you are advocating for the right to email service? It is shocking that someone could even have a thought process like this and receive so many upvotes.
To be fair, from the creditor's perspective it is often unclear whether the transaction was really illegitimate. Fraud in which the consumer falsely claims they were the victim of identity theft is a real phenomenon, in the same way that there is real insurance fraud where consumers falsely claim to be victims of physical theft.
Yeah, you have not the faintest clue what you're talking about.
100% customizable the API serves you a raw JSON with some useful metadata (formatted json-ld, ...)
This is entirely untrue. We can build an accessible society for everyone. We clearly have the resources for it.
I understand that this is how it is supposed to work in theory. But realistically most startups don't (and dare I say shouldn't) have the luxury of a dedicated Scrum Master.

Another thing I don't like is that it relies on humans to do a good job. How do you hire a good Scrum Master if you've never been one yourself? Hires like that are usually hit or miss. What if you need to hire ten of those?
Is your example not usually solved with local storage, not server storage?
Last time our family had an encyclopedia set was back in the 70s. And yes, nerd that I was (am, and will forever be) I read it. When we moved overseas, we had to put a lot of stuff in storage, and this was one of the things stolen from storage.
Indeed. I submitted this partly because I get so very tired of Linux zealots claiming that the HURD "proves" that microkernels can't work, or that Minix 3 shows that, OK, they can work, but they're crippled.
I don't really see this as an issue... potatoes, pasta, etc would be on a stove when power is avail, or I already have a camp stove I could use. Same diet as when I'm in the wilderness.

I think the point you were trying to make is good that spoil wouldn't be available, but that's a small price to pay for not paying for Russia's war.

Totally agree, I think regular tunings are cool and easier for learning in a lot of ways, but the ergonomics of standard tuning or other non-regular tunings make somethings easy that are really beautiful. I think making whatever you consider to be desirable on your instrument also be idiomatic and easy to do is good.
I was born on the 30th of Cheshvan which as he explains is one of the days that doesn't show up every year (I guess is the equivalent of February 29th). I've always wondered how many birthdays I've had - does anyone know of a list of which years are chasar/maalei?

If you're like me (and many others) and can't get enough of destructuring, Clojure has it on steroids compared to JS and is everywhere in a normal/average Clojure codebase: https://clojure.org/guides/destructuring

Destructuring in Clojure doesn't suffer from the same problems as JavaScript, so lot of the things in the article doesn't apply. I was always slightly disappointed when destructuring finally came to JavaScript but it was so neutered compared to what it could have been.

But on the other hand, I'm happy JavaScript is not becoming more complicated just for the sake of new features. But on the other foot, we already got `class` and a bunch of other complicated, syntactic sugar, so why not another?
"How do you freeze python tools into binaries?"

I think there are several workflows for doing this - I know in the past we used something called 'cx_Freeze' but I think the person in charge of this is now using 'py2exe' ?

Yes, mostly.

Mastodon supports both migrating your profile (followers and block lists, as well as metadata, but NOT content), AND exporting your content (posts, replies, and media uploads).

The process is pretty straightforward, and I've done this myself. You will lose your old content's persistent URL references, though federated copies of that content may still be accessible from other instances.

See:

Moving or leaving accounts: <https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/>

It's also possible to move an entire instance to a new machine:

Migrating to a new machine: <https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/migrating/>
But the linked page has a very thorough source for its numbers; it just happens to be in the "external links" section. And looking through those links for a couple minutes they seem to pretty well cover the text.

The lines are not individually cited but that's a stylistic thing, not a failure to have references. I'm sure there's several lines without backing but overall this has reasonable links and I don't think it supports the narrative about having "one" reference and getting a "fundamental digital fact" wrong like that.

So I would like to see the real example. Or one that is equivalently bad. And linking it would be in the best interests of a fruitful discussion; it's not like a particular element is going to be a controversial issue that causes a time-wasting tangent.
Ideally, during first few years organizers are runners. They don't know the destination, but they care more than anyone.
It’s interesting how much this depends on your bubble… most of the news I follow and people I know side with Russia or are at least extremely sceptic of nato/etc and from what I see everything is the opposite.

This war has taught me that even though there is only one truth to everything it’s impossible to know it unless you are there to see it with your eyes.

I don't even know what this has to do with the homeless. I don't want ANY of my internet accounts to depend on my phone (which I can lose, and I just don't want it to be a big deal) or, worst of all on "my" phone number, which IS NOT, never was and never will be controlled by me — but by my cellphone operator. Who isn't my friend. Both problems seem to be so obvious, that I don't see how pointing out (also rather obvious thing) — that life out there on the streets is a bit different than in your [home-sized] cubicles — can help.

And since it's always more productive to assume malice, not stupidity — obviously, this is the point. Somebody wants you to depend on your phone number, something you don't really control and cannot easily change. This isn't about comfort and security, it never was. What else is new.

But, I mean, if I have to pretend that it's not about me, but about homeless people for something to be changed — I guess I'm homeless' rights supporter #1 from now on.
Space Sciences Lab, UC Berkeley | Software Engineer | Berkeley, CA | Primarily ONSITE FULLTIME | https://www.ssl.berkeley.edu/

You know that NASA mission control room where where a tightly knit team of headset-wearing operators excitedly awaits telemetry from the latest space probe? That's where you'll work in this position! From its perch on the Berkeley hillside overlooking the San Francisco Bay, the SSL Missions Operations center directly operates over half a dozen (and growing!) NASA spacecraft that are actively conducting peaceful scientific research. We're looking for a software engineer to develop ground systems software for existing and upcoming missions. This software takes a variety of forms and is typically involved with routing and monitoring telemetry, generating commands, scheduling operations, performing encryption / decryption, and more.

* Expect to work closely with a small team of other highly engaged engineers while enjoying a high level of autonomy.

* The work environment isn't corporate or startup; it's an independent research lab in a university setting. The engineering work is both interesting and impactful, and there is great appreciation here for engineers who love their craft.

Apply: https://careerspub.universityofcalifornia.edu/psp/ucb/EMPLOY...

US persons only, please, due to the sensitive nature of this position.
