I agree completely. If people cannot provide for themselves, the state should provide for them. I don't think it makes any sense for employers to be tasked with that, since all that does is provide a huge incentive for employers to discriminate against those who need more (and thus would cost more).

To incentivise performance, employers should pay based on performance. If an employee cannot perform well enough to provide for themselves or their family, the state should help.

None of this requires that employers directly decide pay based on whether you have a family. Requiring that results in the employer discriminating against parents and employees having a reduced incentive to produce.
I think you got this backwards. GP is trying to be sarcastic about the anti-poaching collusion scandal.
It's a very zen-inspired take on the world, and I've heard actual gurus give much less useful and down-to-earth advice than Steve here.
You don't have to build a search engine that is better than Google's - you may only need to build one that is roughly in the running and keep it around until such time as you have to divest from Google.

And working for years on a project that may never see the light of day can be hard.

A commission would find that there was no problem whatsoever.

Almost everybody misunderstands NSA's defensive mandate. They aren't corporate America's QA department, they don't have a "let's find and report exploits" mission - their defensive mission applies to "national security systems" and other "defense industrial base" ones. Those are computers/networks running fairly specific tasks; they are generally not internet connected, and sitting in secure buildings with 24 hour security and surveillance, so securing them revolves around a lot of physical security and controlled access.

YOU don't have one of these systems, corporation XYZ doesn't have one, there is no requirement NSA disclose jack shit to anybody unless they want to. And in the ETERNALBLUE case one of their tools leaked so they helped head off a lot of problems by voluntarily telling Microsoft about it.

As for who is responsible for this - I thought all the people here are free market worshipers. If Silicon Valley tech companies, one of the richest class of private enterprises in the world, need what are effectively government subsidies to cover their bug ridden insecure products, well that sounds like multiple market failures to me.
I don't find this illegible in the least.

It has advantages over markdown lists, too: You never need to mess with semantic indentation to add additional paragraphs to a given line, and you don't have to manually number ordered lists the way some markdown flavours ask you to.

While I agree with all you said, one can expand a bit on it. There are concrete max search depth expectations for well randomizing hash functions such as:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/019667748790040X

which is notably logarithmic - not unlike a B-Tree.

When these expectations are exceeded you can at least detect a DoS attack. If you wait until such are seen, you can activate a "more random" mitigation on the fly at about the same cost as "the next resize/re-org/whatnot".

All you need to do is instrument your search to track the depth. There is some example such strategy in Nim at https://github.com/c-blake/adix for simple Robin-Hood Linear Probed tables and a formula based one from that above paper inside https://github.com/c-blake/suggest

This is all more about the "attack" scenario than the "truly hard" real-time scenario, of course.

Impersonating someone in order to defraud is a crime. Even if supposed to be funny or revelatory, you can be jailed. Look at the David Daleiden case in California
Hmm, that's interesting and... good for you? I'm not mad, it just seems weird to brag about this kind of thing to people that are being (lightly) genocided, or otherwise smothered to death by this oppressive system.

Also, I'm interested in where you live. As far as I know, these are issues in many countries. I don't think I've heard of a developed country where people don't have do deal with some form of care rationing, or being diverted away from treatment, due to some overcautious concern.

It may not be the insurance company, but it's definitely happening in CA/UK/AU.
Last time I checked half the internet is either illegal or blocked in the EU - is this even news?

It's kind of ingenious. If you make practically every online service illegal then instead of taxing your citizens you can just fine foreign companies for doing business with you.
Twitter Is Wrecking the Musk Aura That Fueled Tesla
"Voluntary Chapter 11" in Delaware. Figures.

That gets them out from bankruptcy in the Bahamas, which is much tougher than US law. The Bahamas still has classic tough bankruptcy laws, where there's no debtor-in-possession reorganization. It's straight to liquidation, with a court-appointed receiver in charge.

This should be, and may be, converted to a straight liquidation. Chapter 11 can be useful for restarting companies that actually do something, like General Motors. There, much of the value is in the ongoing business. FTX, going forward, has no ongoing business. Lawyers for creditors will be making that argument.

Note that Bankman-Fried is still employed by FTX, "assisting".

Current banners at FTX.com: "FTX is currently unable to process withdrawals. We strongly advise against depositing. Deposits of TRX, BTT, JST, SUN, and HT are disabled. All onboarding of new clients has been suspended until further notice."

"We have reached an agreement with Tron to establish a special facility to allow holders of TRX, BTT, JST, SUN, and HT to swap assets from FTX 1:1 to external wallets. This functionality will be enabled at 18:30 UTC, November 10, 2022."
This guy did not get sued. Someone reported him to the relevant authority which gave him notice and time to correct the issue - no court of law was involved.

There are lawyers that threaten to sue you in court, treating this as a business model bordering on extortion, but that’s not the case here.

This wasn't full on dissection but ... my father was dating a coroner, who really wanted me to go to med school. However, my father was also ridiculously squeamish, to the point where even a few drops of blood could result in a faint. So, she decided to take me to an autopsy she had to sign off on, to see if I was also as delicate. My father refused to even enter the building, but there I am, with my first cadaver, which was a suicide.

Local laws dictated that all bullet fragments be removed, and since it was a low-caliber bullet the man had fired into his head, it mostly bounced around in there. Originally, they had drilled a discreet hole and were trying to get everything out that way, but eventually had to do the full rectangle, with a Stryker autopsy saw.

Suffice to say that I do not have my father's squeamishness.
Of course liberals are bending over backwards to defend big business and outrageous (actual) profiteering now, as evidenced by you being downvoted into oblivion. The merger of private corporations and public power, the definition of fascism.

Meanwhile they think Twitter is literally just fascist or something (whereas just a little while ago it was a private business free to do whatever it wanted, when they were censoring unfavorable media about political opponents as well as the opponents themselves). They flip flop like a weathervane in a hurricane.
Have you actually looked at it before you replied, or are you just assuming it?

Fortran is terrible for the scale of those projects, and it shows.

I can give you concrete examples straight from GitHub. Accuracy isn't relative it's absolute. You're not comparing accuracy to other models, you compare it vs reality.

It is a known fact the results of different climate models diverge. There's ongoing research as to why this is happening, lookup CMIP6. Many models also required flux adjustment to stay stable over many years of simulation (although at least that problem is improving).

It's really hard to test these models on the scale of the effects climate change.
It doesn't have to be "best in the world", just good enough and justifiable to themselves - many of the Apple in-house products kinda sucked when first released (I'm thinking of Apple Maps).
Who sets all this up? This just clarifies my perspective that lawyers live in their own little world, totally disconnected from reality.
Perhaps less whining about being “cancelled” when what is really happening is that a person is being a tool, then complaining that THEY are the real victim here, and then immediately doubling down on detestable behavior.
And finished it off with with “second to Bloomberg when donating to Biden”.

If any of this had happened in a non-rules based world or even at the periphery of our “civilized” world, a whole bunch of US-financed NGOs and “civil society” thingies would have been up all in arms about it, with cries of corruption and the like. But the moment when it turns out that the second largest financial donor to the US President is basically a crook and a fraudster all those voices are suddenly silent.

This. Someone from Bridgewater mentioned that Dalio's "radical transparency" and all that we-record-everything nonsense is just a marketing bluff. Actual decisions are made behind closed doors by a few people.

Lung cancer rates are higher near major roads due to air pollution from cars. Fossil fuel cars basically means every highway is a superfund site. We just don't talk about it.

Given the choice between toxic waste at a mine and toxic waste in millions of homes, I'll take the mine.
I get your point, but you said “happen to self host”. You’re (I think inadvertently) conflating content distribution and infrastructure. If you are self hosting a website then there aren’t other people distributing your content: you are. If you are just publishing content to be hosted on some static site platform like gh-pages, then yeah, blocking bad infrastructure players is their problem.

What’s what with the internet is that it allows both types of models, and both are widespread and actively used today. It wouldn’t be hard for e.g. GH to run EU servers and manage mirroring all content and static sites so that traffic is roughly region local. I wouldn't be surprised if they did this to some extent just for efficiency concerns irrespective of any legal ones.

You also seem to be conflating TCP and HTTP.
There's also the irony of the fancy office. If you're a customer of a professional and walk into a very luxurious office, you know ultimately you're the one paying for that. If it were a separate surcharge to meet in the fancy office vs something basic would you chose to pay it? Yet psychologically we all feel more confident in the fancy office.
Cool that you're responding here. Well, regarding robotics, I'm sure there's all sorts of problems when it comes to training models, but I'm not sure that Goodhart's law is one of them, unless you can give a concrete example. It's really geared towards social problems. Sure, some natural systems may also exhibit the kind of adaptive response that leads to the breakdown of structural relattions (eg the cancer cells mentioned before may evolve to avoid detection by the AI), but that happens on completely different timescales.
Yes exactly. I was bad and abused them taking 10-20mg or more and that led to bad things, I struggled to control my usage. It's best to do it the way you are.

The first side effects are mental, you also get physical side effects like body aches. I'd rather never experience that level of anxiety ever again.
I am surprised that this is hardly discussed here. FTX is supposedly a large exchange, so there should be lots of individual investors affected.

This is perhaps more about intelligence agencies :

(we would NOT be in this situation if Patriot Act => Snowden scandal had not happened)

https://www.lawfareblog.com/how-europes-intelligence-service...

Still, I think you can see how a lot of people might feel more comfortable being spied upon by "their own" intelligence agencies, than foreign ones ? (Since, in democratic countries, these agencies are at least theoretically under the control of governments, which are in theory representative of citizens.)

And while the USA (unlike, say, Russia or China), is treated as an EU ally, their unrivaled power combined with their "world police" actions end up chafing even in the EU...
Who in their right mind would not store a visitor's IP address. How are you supposed to handle abuse or performance issues a visitor might have? Or perform analytics?

It makes sense to not store if you're running some kind of privacy service.
One of my favorite songs. So many haunting lyrics. I've always been fascinated by "Superior, they said, never gives up her dead..." I've read it is in reference to the fact that because the lake is so cold, sunken bodies will not decompose and resurface. Of course, it could just be folklore.
There are already arduino-based products that are suitable, but as stated before, a large part of the problem is getting past the "maker" association.

If you look at Industruino, Controllino, Ruggeduino products, and then the domain-specific arduino variants such as those for home automation, automotive hobbyist, lighting control, you'll probably find a lot of already OSH/OSS arduino-based hardware on the market.

And on the development side, ditch the (beginner-friendly?) Arduino IDE for VS Code and the PlatformIO plugin and you're all set.
As soon as I started reading the author's solution, I thought of git. Good to see it acknowledged later on.

Every comments talk about what you guys do, or do not do on your computer/phone. I have another aspect too:
I avoid under any circumstances to buy or use “smart” things. The fridge, the heating thermostat, the bathroom scale, the vacuum, the running shoes, the bike computer is all a huge privacy risk, if they are connected to the internet. Maybe bigger than anything on your computer. Keep theese guys offline!
Seems fair. I use tags, but not rigorously or ambitiously.
I don't understand what is so difficult about this.

Allow anybody to get verified, they just need to present their passport and then their display name is fixed to that name, or if its a company you verify that.

Just letting anybody be verified while claiming to be 'Coca Cola Company' make no sense what so ever.

Honestly, I think mortising that feature isn't a bad idea, specially for companies, politicians and so on. But just letting anybody pay for a check mark is kind of crazy.

Why bot fighting is such a problem is also a mystery. I mean so often these bot account use literally the same picture, the same name and a username like @EIonMusk22525. How fucking hard is it to write some machine learning to recognize stuff like that? Having protection from bots that impersonate would seem to be a feature worth paying for, given how often the replies of somebody are full with impersonators that promote crypto schemes.

I thought it was incredibly stupid for Musk to buy twitter, a never ending pit of problems unlikely to ever make money and basically nuking his reputation even more. Literally jumping head first into culture war issues. Guaranteed to make everybody on all sides angry.
The link is wrong. Most VPs make more than that a month.
I don't think we even need to go as far as the second World War. Animals get shit treatment all day, every day, everywhere. Even if you look at pets, which are supposed to get the best treatment of them all, even they are often mistreated or outright abused. And then we can into other territories like service animals, meat and fur, and lab animals. There's so much horror going on at any moment that I think if we treat one right, that's the exception, not the other way around.
Yes that's why we need to move to small, efficient, reliable cars and public transport.

The US allows charities to help people that need it. A quick google came up with this website.

https://impactful.ninja/best-charities-for-voting-rights-in-...

Although I would strongly suggest you investigate any charity to see if they are spending the money donated to them for their stated goals. And double check their tax form 990 to see how much of that money is actually spent on “charitable work".

Charities in the US also have the added benefit of donations being tax deductible(to an extent) and a fairly direct way to make sure your taxable income is being spent on something you care about.

Trouble is I LOVE my job and the company I'm in. I know our processes like the back of my hand (I designed half of them) and feel very valued and enjoy it all. I don't want to leave just to get money. I just also dont see why people coming in to "junior" roles are paid $50k more than I was on at that level of experience just a few years ago (I understand inflation, this is something else). It's nuts.
The context here is other CEOs stepping down after a fiasco, getting a massive severance check, saying they take "full responsibility". Compared to that SBF is massively screwed.
Rationale from thread:

> Helping the web to evolve is challenging, and it requires us to make difficult choices. We've also heard from our browser and device partners that every additional format adds costs (monetary or hardware), and we’re very much aware that these costs are borne by those outside of Google. When we evaluate new media formats, the first question we have to ask is whether the format works best for the web. With respect to new image formats such as JPEG XL, that means we have to look comprehensively at many factors: compression performance across a broad range of images; is the decoder fast, allowing for speedy rendering of smaller images; are there fast encoders, ideally with hardware support, that keep encoding costs reasonable for large users; can we optimize existing formats to meet any new use-cases, rather than adding support for an additional format; do other browsers and OSes support it?

> After weighing the data, we’ve decided to stop Chrome’s JPEG XL experiment and remove the code associated with the experiment. We'll work to publish data in the next couple of weeks.

> For those who want to use JPEG XL in Chrome, we believe a WebAssembly (Wasm) implementation is both performant and a great path forward.

Something similar happened to me as well, kite dropped in on shore winds in fairly small surf (max 2 meters), but pretty soon the lines were around my legs. Tried to cut the lines using the knive in my harness, but couldn’t get loose. Luckily I washed up on shore, but was a pretty scary experience.

Largest waves I windsurfed was about 4 meters in Maui, went head first down the wave, mast got stuck in the coral reef, snapped like it was nothing. Even at 4 meters, waves are pretty powerful.

The number of flags required to statically compile stuff when using cgo is indeed a bit complex (if you're not using cgo it will always statically compile), partly because interfacing with C is a bit complex.

There is an issue to make it easier[1], and doesn't seem too hard to find more information about it[2].

More general: I think I've seen every language described as "badly documented" at this point. Someone new comes to the language, knows what they want to do, gets stuck/frustrated because it's a little bit outside the "mainstream path", and calls it "badly documented".

That's fair. I selfhost Pleroma as a single-user instance, so I couldn't tell you about running it at scale. I went with it because it could run on a raspberry pi a few years back whereas mastodon was too resource-hungry.
True, but there probably aren’t that many readers who thought it meant Google cooked someone. The other meaning is a specialized form of theft.
