"Safety rules are written in blood" applies to parts of the organisation too.

Sure, there are some overbearing procedure monkeys who really want a process on everything, but a lot of "protection" rules are there because something really bad (and expensive, financially or reputationally) has happened before.
> The term "insider trading" means something specific which is being inside a company.

I don't think it does. You can hear overhear information from someone in a bar and that is still insider trading. That's how I remember my training from working in fintech at least.
He has had an impressive but not unprecedented ramp up, from 2400(ish) to 2700 in around 3 years. There are actually other young stars, in particular a trio of Indian prodigies who've had a similar surge at the same time. I recommend the work of Nate Solon, a chess master and data scientist, easy to find on Twitter, he's published some interesting analysis. It's surprising for Magnus to lose a White game at all, especially to someone not in the top ten, but really no more than surprising - these sort of things happen. Can Djokovic lose to the world #100? Absolutely, he can have a bad day. The world #100 (in tennis or chess) is 98% (ish) as good as the world #1. Did Niemann cheat against Magnus? Obviously I don't know but I do think extraordinary claims should require extraordinary evidence and I don't see it in this case.
Quite. And if we're going to be Bayesian about it, "too good to be true" is a strong predictor of untrustworthiness.

You'd be surprised.

a) Drug recognition experts -- commented that on a sibling comment too -- identifying drug usage vs e.g. trauma by sight.

b) blood alcohol levels imply alcohol consumption -- you could actually be walking around with elevated alcohol levels not realizing it due to liver issues+yeast biome/diabetes (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK513346/)

c) uniqueness of fingerprints -- studies pointing always this is a statistical argument not a unique identifier -- https://www.aaas.org/resources/latent-fingerprint-examinatio...

d) partial DNA match implying perfect match -- partial matches have been used to convict people

e) probably every depiction of mental illness -- there are exceptions but can't say Hollywood does its best there

f) lawyer interaction -- no your lawyer can't just barge in: you have to ask specifically and probably persist on needing a lawyer to consider any further interaction. (And even how you word that is a minefield in the U.S.)

g) talking to the police -- somehow invoking the fifth is something only bad guys do -- it is the other way around. And that is causing issues already.

h) DNA, fingerprints imply you were there. No material can be moved around. And police knows that. (And of course substances too, e.g. you were in a tax/uber after someone exposed to X, you are now exposed to X.)

i) pretty much all of statistics -- this case one would have hoped would be the eye opener (https://forensicstats.org/blog/2018/02/16/misuse-statistics-...)

P.S. j) ... science honestly? I am always dumbfounded with how much lack of basic scientific knowledge plagues courts and in extend society. Courts can not survive with uncertainty: they have to make decisions and stick to them. Science is different.

I think GeoIP blocking is a good strategy here. Wikipedia has used this strategy and it has been reasonably successful. People can still log in to GitHub and download the list regardless of where they are located.
Yes, imo - because they don't just mistrust - they randomly trust alternatives.

Mistrust is warranted, definitely. Trusting random sources that fit their heavy bias is something we should all be hyper aware of and fight. Yet we don't.
I've discovered a workflow I'm happy with.

I run Debian stable on my workstation, and manage most of my packages with `apt`. As such, everything "just works," and flawlessly.

For the handful of packages that I want to upgrade aggressively, I manage them with Nix[1].

I've been doing this for maybe two or three years, and despite a little extra complexity, it feels like a best-of-both worlds scenario. I get the rock-solid stability of Debian stable, but the one or two packages that need to stay cutting-edge are able to do so.

I also don't have trouble with package conflicts, because the entire point of Nix is to prevent those kinds of problems.

This has been great for me. Do recommend.

For "reasonably small" number of variables to test, branches are likely to be faster. Especially if zero values are either rare or very common, so the branches end up predictable.

SSE4.1 has packed integer min/max instructions which could well be optimal for testing if a big array contains any zeroes.

also: How to check if any word is non-zero? Simply OR them together!
I thought the consensus was that Magnus played badly and Hans played adequately but also made clear mistakes himself.
(I am not a lawyer)

Wouldn’t some aspect of the case be about whether the defendants actually knew for a fact if Hans was cheating? In other words, were they saying “Hans cheated in this tournament and we have the proof” or “Hans’ play has been super sketchy he’s cheating”. There seems to me a difference here, both in intent and scope.
I explicitly have on my profile that I am not interested in Amazon, but their recruiters still contact me. Recruiters still not read profile, it's basically spray and pray.

That said, it's been a couple of weeks since I have heard from Amazon. There truly must be a hiring freeze going on
I believe his past and admitted history of cheating did damage him, but that does not mean these recent allegations of cheating have not additionally damaged him.

The allegations also weren't "Why - this man has admitted to cheated in the past - therefore we shouldn't trust him in the future". In the case of chess.com, they made specific and explicit allegations of cheating across a number of RECENT games. Magnus accused him specifically of cheating in the Sinquefield cup. The difference between somebody who cheated a few years ago as a teenager only online and seemingly reformed, and somebody who cheated again after claiming not to and cheated OTB as well, is significantly different in many peoples eyes. In a way that materially impacts his future career.

Before the Magnus allegations of recent cheating, nobody was seriously considering banning Hans from tournaments. Now he has already been banned from money tournaments by chess.com. I believe the fact he has faced harm as a result of these novel allegations is so obvious as to be beyond dispute. It is by far the easiest part of Hans legal case to prove. Unflattering allegations against Hans literally ended up in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal because of the recent novel allegations of Chess.com and Magnus Carlsen.

Past misdeeds do not mean the end of all future legal protections. Just because you have a shady past doesn't mean you can't sue for slander/libel and win, you see shady journalists who lie all the time win slander/libel cases all the time.
You report them to your local DPA. The DPA will look into the complaint, ask the company to fix the problem and/or start an investigation, and maybe eventually, hand out a fine.

How long this takes depends on the problem and the capacity for the DPA. If Google or Facebook are involved in a new data sharing scheme, their cases will get priority over a website not setting cookies right.
It does work with any k8s cluster, no operator needed. It indeed relies on kubectl's config to talk to the k8s API. All that's needed is permissions to run privileged pods (or if you've configured mirrord to use ephemeral containers, not even that).

We're currently working on a more enterprise-oriented version where you would have a persistent operator in the cluster, and it would let you properly manage RBAC, rather than relying on each user's kubectl.

Thanks for pointing all of this out! We'll try to make this info more easily accessible.

At some point I would expect the younger players to start doing this more often. After all, they have the ability to grow up learning to play from/like an engine. It just seems obvious that their play should diverge from what was traditionally canon.

Your "controlled studies", to mean anything at all, depend utterly on accurate, specific diagnosis. But for most of these conditions, the only way to get any specificity is to note which medications help. Absent any way to produce accurate, specific diagnosis, such trials are a waste of time and money.
Should just have trade windows, preferably during recess.

This has been proven to work (and even applies to plebs like me) so why not implement it there?

Mr. Senator big brain going to take advantage of the 2 week recess to trade - go for it.
The problem is Hans is still playing OTB at a 2700ish level. If Hans is managing to cheat in OTB chess with so many eyes on him, with all the security measures in place, and doing it so he's able to fool all of the anti-cheating statistical analyses, then honestly he should just be robbing banks or something because he could make way more money with those skills.
What? No, no, no. iOS and Android were night and day compared to Symbian and the other operating systems of that era. Aside from the very basic games and super-simple apps, it was virtually impossible to write anything significant for non-Apple/Android devices.

Because of that, even before the official launch of an iOS SDK, there were more apps for iPhone (because people hacked it), than there ever were for Nokia.

For WindowsCE, sure there were apps, but phones didn't run Windows really then. Only PDAs.
Now that mobile devices are getting this powerful, we need them to start supporting larger storage again.
Even theoretical physicists fall prey to the elegance before practicality trap. Hence M-theory & practically unprovable models with 10+ dimensions.
Again, no more than baryonic matter, which is demonstrably not all wrapped up in black holes (and probably much less, though bear in mind this is all pretty speculative).

Of course any dark matter that happens to be headed straight for a black hole will go in, no problem. Broadly there are a lot more variables in black hole formation than just self-interaction. Remember it's possible in principle for photons to form a black hole, if you get them to converge just right, but that doesn't mean it's common or at all relevant on a cosmological scale.
I've done it for formal ETL pipeline code, too. I make it tighter, but not too tight. Sadly, the spec given me was very ... optimistic? Bright-eyed? Many things that were not supposed to happen did happen, data that shouldn't have gotten near me did, and so on. SQLite swallowed it and kept on truckin', because when it comes to ETL, one dumb field entry shouldn't stop the show. Catch it, yes, deal with it when you note it in the logs, absolutely, but one must continue, and for that SQLite is most excellent.
LDL’s relationship with heart disease is the prevailing hypothesis supported by the vast majority of the literature. You’d need to provide convincing evidence against that.

Though, LDL tends to be the smoke while ApoB is the fire, they tend to track close enough together to where you aren’t going to see high LDL numbers yet optimal ApoB levels.

That’s just wishful thinking which is why LDL skepticism is limited to a few online diet cults and nocarb quacks.
That's a hefty increase! I wish there was a benefit to the users given the extra cost.
Hans is currently rated around 2700 (at least his live rating after his performance at the US Chess Championship). A few other GMs around that rating have beaten Magnus in just the last week or two (Arjun Erigaisi and Gukesh to name a couple), so it's not out of this world. It is still certainly an upset, but not impossible.
He has the option to sue, but the way to gain respect is to demonstrate his ability in an environment that controls for any means of cheating posited by those who suspect him of doing so.

Unfortunately, a lot of fire source experts were trained based on a mishmash of folk theories about arson, many of which have been subsequently disproven by scientific testing. There have been some improvements over the last decade or two, but the field is still heavily contaminated by junk science.
One is highly effective while the other is wishful thinking.

I like how there is currently a porto-john in the exact spot right now. Like, there is currently a working toilet in the exact location that is, to my limited knowledge, doing the bare minimum well enough right now. For likely much less in my entire life than the 1.7M that just building the new toilet will cost.

If it's not corruption, then I am more worried.
I can see them attempting that, but it'll give legislatures in other states an incentive to make it law as well, simply from the view of "look they're treating us different" which usually pissed people off more than when everyone is treated shitty but equally.
At least with motorcyclists its their own lives, not others like when car drivers speed excessively.

How about allowing roofers licensed in other states to work temporarily in Florida after a disaster without having to have a Florida license but only if they are working as a subcontractor under a roofer with a Florida license who will supervise the work and make sure it is done to Florida code?

If you require the out-of-state workers to actually get licensed in Florida I think that would likely limit the number of out-of-state workers too much. I doubt many out-of-state roofers would bother with the time and money to maintain Florida licenses that they are only going to use on those occasions of a temporary spike in demand due to Florida natural disasters.
Microsoft sold ARM-powered versions of the Surface for a while (not sure if it was ARM64 at that point) and releases a version of Windows which runs on the Pi, so it's something they've showed interest in for a while. I'm guessing that they also see the writing on the wall in terms of ascendancy of the ARM platform and want to make sure they have software to sell which runs on it as it happens, but hardware vendors haven't been falling over themselves to bring ARM Windows devices to market just yet.
This is a strong argument for honest messaging which includes the appropriate caveats

You can't change who you really are, you can only pretend.

My opinion only obviously.
You can prove statistically that he used Stockfish in some critical games; 100% same moves. In other games he was at Magnus' level, around 75%, and in some on his normal level.

Yes, Stockfish is really good. But not crazy. Just call him Hans Shoefish.

You confused the GP statement about “blood spatter analysis” with a statement about “blood spatter”.

The comparisons are a bit extreme as Hans hasn’t become the world’s best chess player; not even close. He just beat Magnus once…

It's literally in the rest of the description you just cut off to form these silly hypotheticals. It's a very simple two part test with a big "and" clause connecting them.

> a. There is a substantial connection between the lack of good moral character of the individual and the professional responsibilities of a registered contractor; and

> b. The finding by the board of lack of good moral character is supported by clear and convincing evidence.

A roofing contractor cheating on their husband has no substantial connection to the professional responsibilities of being a contractor. Neither does being arrested for possession. Both would be granted their license. If the person arrested for drugs was stealing copper from construction sites - they might have a hard time, but that's by design..
This is so sad in so many ways. I had to research the topic and this was the first case popping up. Thank you, and... I am still really sad...
It's not true that you can make at most 100% once you take into account leverage. But I agree with your general point that shorting is much harder than longing

Just a thought experiment: what if it turns out that, for all practical purposes, it is impossible to prevent cheating in chess?

I mean the sport of Tour de France cycling disappeared for a decade, replaced by an identical-looking-but-fundamentally-different sport of competing to see who can cheat (dope) the best. It was probably not even possible to get into the TdF during that time period, without doping, there were so many people doing it.

It is entirely possible, that chess (as a professional competition) is not going to survive this, because it will turn out that with modern computing and communications technology, it is not possible to prevent cheating. Whoever wins the competition, will be the one who cheated the best. Chess will be replaced with an acting and subterfuge competition.
The guy has admitted to cheating in the past, to make money. Basically he said that if his rating was above X, he could make more money streaming.

Chess.com put out a massive publication proving he cheated a hell of a lot more than "once or twice when he was younger".

Because if he's not cheating, he's literally the prodigal child of AlphaZero and Bobby Fischer and should be crowned the GOAT immediately. Some of his play is unreal.

There are more examples of him playing games with 100% accuracy against fellow GMs in the past few years than Magnus has had in his entire career IIRC. Some of his losses are against much lower rated opponents and somehow he manages to play some of the most accurate games against the highest rated opponents.

Honestly, what needs to happen is chess needs to be replaced with Fischer Random, and matches played in significantly faster time controls so players don't have the time to have moves evaluated and transmitted to them.
Yeah, an ongoing problem. For about a decade the street my parents live on was off-by-one, in that on google maps the name shown on their street was actually the name for the next lower street on the mountain, and so on for all the roads branching off of the 'main' road down to the county road. Same heading farther up the mountain, to the final road which was simply unnamed as if it was someone's driveway. It did eventually get fixed but it was a problem for a little while.
it's too close to reality.

If you knew your spouse is going to announce an interest rate hike the next morning, shorting might be a relatively safe bet. And it's not like an index fund will move more than a few points at a time anyway.

There is a broad equivalence between capex and opex.

I find subscriptions distasteful, but I can still acknowledge that, depending on the price, they may be reasonable compared to ownership.
They should either be forced to schedule trades 6-12 months out (during quiet periods where they cannot make public statements), or be forced to publicly disclose their trades in advance. (So NCNY and MTCH or whatever insider trading ETFs exist can let the public arbitrage in front of their insider trades).
"Blood spatter analysis" is not a physics based discipline. The other comment responding to you with the analogy about astrology is good explanation of what is wrong with your reasoning
It's not half a second in the context of minute-long trip, but rather in the context of driver reaction time which is (IIRC) around a couple of seconds. So, it's substantial.

The view that we don't fight confirmation bias very much comports with my priors.
This is just not true. Check out the analysis here [0], for example. His rating improvement has been steep but he's also played a very large number of games, so his rating gain per game as opposed to per unit of time is not so crazy.

Also, no one seriously expects Hans to be a world championship contender.
