Self-driving cars are neither better or worse. They do not exist in reality, only in our imagination.

Such things are not bound by mundane constraints. They can be orders of magnitude safer, they can solve congestion, be fast cheaper, not use parking, and even somehow solve climate change.

"Mammograms are the best breast cancer screening tests we have at this time. But mammograms have their limits. For example, they aren’t 100% accurate in showing if a woman has breast cancer. They can miss some cancers, and sometimes they find things that turn out not to be cancer (but that still need further testing to be sure)."

My point is on the quality of clients, not the quality of the work product.

In the future, clients who prioritize cheap will go on fivrr and get 500 AI alternatives to choose from if they can.

Or down the block to a lower priced competitor later this afternoon if they can.

Good clients want you to stay in business because they want to work with you again.
Imagine if instead, a scene mentioned a child coming home and talking to his father who was in the middle of disassembling and cleaning his gun at the kitchen table. For many Americans this would be completely normal, but many Euros would think that was "bad parenting". As others have said, it seems like the editor was suggesting that Americans may view the scene differently than the writer may have intended, and was pointing out the fact to the author so they would be aware.

Also it's hard to know without further context, but if the Euro was writing a story that would be set in America, that scene would seen somewhat odd to most Americans as mid-day drinking is not all that common, especially mid-week or without an explicit reason, like a birthday or some sort of celebration.
We didn't make any use of design products to the extent we use Figma as a team now, since the last year. We use Figma now for every single task that has wire frames, mockups, advertising, new web pages, business cards - it's our new photoshop I suppose but social and shared. If Adobe had anything like that before I wouldn't know.

The question is why the editor feels the need to point it out, rather than letting the writer communicate the image to the reader and the reader form a private opinion about what the image signifies.

It's one thing for an editor to say 'this passage is confusing or boring,' quite another to add in personal opinions of fictional or historical characters.

There are a few vaccines that try to 'make' your immune system recognize an abnormal (read cancerous) protein as foreign (Sipleucel T for prostate, GMCSF vaccine for melanoma). Minimal activity.
It does, from the article: "“Normally, our blood vessel walls are all sealed pipes,” Brahmbhatt says. “But around wherever the cancer is growing, the blood vessels are known to be very defective. They have got a lot of holes in them.”

Brahmbhatt and his collaborator Jennifer MacDiarmid devised a clever ploy. They would send a Trojan horse into malignant cells and turn cancer’s own trickery against it.

The Trojan horse, in this case, is a product of a harmless bacteria that’s been genetically engineered to have specific qualities. When this genetically engineered bacteria divides, it yields a tiny non-living cell of 400 nanometers in diameter—the right size to slip through the damaged vessels and mingle with the tumors."

One thing I don't understand CRDT hype is it doesn't solve semantics conflict problem, and solving it on app level would also be better by-passing CRDT completely. And one more thing, real-time collaboration just mean road without sign, lines, traffic light. Having process in place, in async way, is considerably more efficient.
Had a Calc II course that was going well until the instructor left midway through for maternity leave. The replacement instructor was a young, attractive and buttoned-up Indian national who's English was borderline unintelligible. She took great personal offense when asked to repeat what she just said. I got A's in first year 5 hour Calc I, but I had to eat the C for first semester 3 hour Calc II.
Two things:

1) Humans decline mentally & physically as they age. Sucks, but it's true. This guy in his 30s was maybe a great teacher. That was in the 1970s. It's 2022. While I can't be certain, it's very likely he's not running on all cylinders. As mentioned, teaching is a really hard and demanding job. Statistically, it's very likely that he's just not up to the task anymore. People get old. Sorry.

2) Looking at it from a distance, if a group of students think your teaching style sucks so much that they put together a petition to get you to change it, that's just fundamentally a failure of your teaching style. He might want different students, but tough, these are the ones he's got. If he can't hack it with them then by definition he is a shitty teacher.

Combine the two and you get a pretty clear picture. Guy's not up to the job and the school and students will be better without him.
Especially since Begich only wins the Condorcet because he's preferable to Palin to Democrats.

In a primary system, Begich doesn't even get to the general. So it becomes Palin against Peltola.

Begich can only win in a head to head matchup in a general election against any single candidate. He cannot beat the field, because he is consistently someone's second choice in the overall field.

There is actually something very cute and personal about WhatsApp.

I would go to Telegram to get movies or some restricted (conspiracy?) news feeds.

Spam, payment notes, etc. come via regular Messages/SMS.

But when something comes via WhatsApp... Dunno, it just feels more personal from me. As if, it's someone I personally know or care about / involved with.

I think some of this magic is preserved just because it does not add any other features that dilate the original use case and how it makes one feel.

Here you attempt to distract from the basic dishonesty of your inter-generational "whataboutism" through critique of something GP didn't suggest. GP's observations of the present and near-future are discouraging, but they're accurate. The cavemen and the serfs are not our opponents; our opponents are alive right now. GP speculated that we could be kinder to the dying (seriously, that's what you're arguing against), but didn't recommend surrender.

How do you know the students did not put in the work? Were any students interviewed for the Post's coverage (https://nypost.com/2022/10/04/nyu-professor-allegedly-fired-...)?

One thing I'm curious about is, fundamentally it looks like Zig is going to be the more popular language. I don't know why, but that's just my gut feel. It looks like Zig will get the traction that D never did.

That is what they tell their pigeon investors. But they don't say there is not enough tritium to operate commercial reactors, or that no material has been identified that can hold the structure together after bombardment with hot neutrons. They don't say that the reactor would need to be maintained using robots nobody has ever built.

Come 2025, there will not be a useful reactor. They will instead offer an excuse, which is easy to come by.
This is the bottleneck for one company. We have many companies this size doing the same thing.

The issue is large companies (novartis/BMS) sometimes sit on compounds and refuse to develop because they think it may not be worth it, may think a certain disease (read market) is saturated, or they may be waiting for the 'right time'. It can be frustrating.

Smaller companies have 2-3 compounds which they actively work to develop but most of them end up getting acquired by the big fish.

This is quite the shift. Biden infamously a very anti-drug and anti-marijuana politician for a long time, and I remember a story from early in his presidency where he purged members of his staff who consumed marijuana and that story sort of set the tone for the Presidency with respect to drug issues that he'd remain in that mentality. He is now promising a "review" of the current schedule for the drug which could amount to nothing in the case that deep down he doesn't want to decriminalize it, but then again it could actually follow through, which could honestly cement his legacy.

I agree that it isn't hard, but I'm glad we both agree it isn't trivial.

> I do wonder if many people actually care to work through that step

I don't think most people care to be honest. But I think what does matter is recount events. I often point to what happened in Arizona as a perfect example. It would be substantially easier to create a narrative that an election is rigged if the tallying is more complicated. Malicious people like to hide in complexity and will often oversimplify a complex topic. Because of this, I think one of the most important factors in creating a secure election is ensuring that the tallying system is simple. While malicious actors will always act maliciously, we can reduce their effectiveness through this simplicity.
Is there a way in JB Gateway to re-use an existing project?

I am in the office 50% of the time, working on my desktop with CLion.
The other 50% I'm remote. The one time I tried Gateway, it asked me to create a new project, which meant building another index of a giant codebase, and not having any of my per-project settings. The time and disk space of another index turned me off right away. I couldn't find a way to just re-use the existing project.
So for now I just suffer through using NoMachine to remote in, and then operate CLion.
That is interesting but I don't know if that's always true. In Alaska, its pretty clear that Senator Murkowski, who was always somewhat moderate, has really leaned into being even more moderate since RCV was introduced there.

Presumably, she knows that she will face little penalty for rebuffing Trump or McConnell on the issues they have for which the right position is unpopular - since there isn't much of a chance of her being dethroned by a right person.

I do take your point that the dynamics can be weird and aren't always "go to the median". And perhaps having a weird dynamic where the introduction of a different voting strategy or other party changes things dramatically - is not a good thing for trust.

Honestly, in FAANG category, keeping the bad PR aside, the Facebook engineering team feels much more talented actually. I have a lot of friends in both places, but the type of projects they are churning right now at their open source end is much better than Google AFAIK. NVIDIA is also very creatively handing their sortware engineering.

Outside of that category, I feel Huggingface is doing some incredible things to bring ML at scale. Then there are a slew of small startups such as Adept, Anthropic and Mosaic which are doing very interesting things too. You is reimagining search with the help of vector search. A few non-profit such as AllenAI are also really competitive. A lot of value prop is being created by small teams at Vercel, Railwayapp etc, which are something to look out for

For which type of web sites would this make a difference? I think for this to matter, the audience should be almost global, in which case it will cater to a small percentage.

Some examples:
- News sites: These heavily use CDN's and caching, wouldn't make much difference.
- Most CRUD apps which target a small number of users? Probably no significant difference being on the edge would bring.
- Games: this is one area this might make a difference due to latency advantage.

Could someone give some real examples from the net that would make switching to this edge architecture a difference? For example, something like, it would be good if HackerNews/CNN/Intuit did this so that...?
35-year-old Canva founder Melanie Perkins got rejected by 100 VCs
I remember doing a bunch of hallucinogens in late teens early twenties. It changed me a lot, not how I expected. I never felt like I was "one with the universe", never felt God or any of that. I never saw the "white light". I definitely hallucinated, but the weird part was you don't just see the hallucination, your thoughts are the hallucination. You only start to hallucinate once the barrier between your thoughts and the stability of what you're looking at weakens

It also changed what society looked like. Growing up I was always highly sceptical of religion, but after doing hallucinogens (and not while doing them) I started to see the same sort of irrational craving for religion in other places also. It made me realize how inherently irrational we all are, and how much of our society is built on top of fear. Also how our own emotional needs can be exploited

I started reading a lot more, and read a bunch of late 19th early 20th century literature because I wanted some sort of sense of direction. I also became a lot more conscious of whenever people exhibit manipulative tendencies or try telling other people what to want. In general I became less trusting than how I was before and more content with my own life plan. This changed the relationships that I had and made me stop talking to old friends (who really weren't very good people), and made me more assertive about boundaries and expectations of respect

The downsides of doing them: infrequent feelings of disassociation (feeling like life is a dream) and preoccupation with death (also infrequent now). Also being less trusting and more sceptical of how people try to direct each other through life. Most of the positives came about after a couple years of being drug free, so I don't know whether they happened because of me getting older or the hallucinogens

What's really incredible to me is how right the prediction was, but also that it was real. In 2014, classifying images as "containing a bird" was a nigh-on-impossible task. Not an impossible one, and image classification was already in production use in limited forms with mapping agencies and the like, but beyond anyone's capability at the time. In 2017, Not Hotdog was a novelty app - Image classification was real, but limited, and didn't have a great reputation yet. By 2019, papers[1] were being written on image classification as a service and where their pitfalls were, but the idea was solid and sound; Today in 2022, it's something you'd have to research and test before buying for your startup but not a hard product to find.
