Polish works fine with the latin alphabet. It has some spelling oddities (like ż and rz sounding the same, but with different spelling due to grammar and historical reasons), but such quirks could be fixed within latin alphabet — if there was a will to change anything at all.

Poland has been under Russian occupation for a big chunk of its history, so politically Cyrillic has no chances.
Thanks - it's very insightful to also hear your perspective as someone coming in from the BI space (if you have any more insights, please post them here, too). We have this internal joke where when one says their analytics is based on regressions, it's really an excel sheet, and if they say it's AI, it's a simple Ordinary Least Squares regression, and only a handful do actual AI/ML.

From what we are seeing in the market, both domains grow, but with an overlap, and it's expanding, too. I think while BI/Analytics would still be a major space, we would see more DL-based novel applications generating increasingly more business value (i.e. self-driving cars, robotics, agritech). After all, even in VERY traditional workflows/companies like economic growth estimation, we're seeing DL being applied (e.g. they look at nightlight satellite imagery to estimate economic growth/urbanization).

So to answer your question, for some parts, I think it would be the former (complement), and other applications it would call for replacement (particularly in the cases where companies use multi-modal data).

However, if someone seems to brake no reason, it is on the driver behind to stop.
My point is that the real problem isn't that Alameda was over-leveraged or gambling, it's that SBF stole user funds from FTX to try to rescue Alameda. This is not what (some of) those other companies did.

> I still toss wiki a few bucks now and then

A small favor to ask: can you avoid using the word "wiki" as casual shorthand to refer to Wikipedia? It falls in the same territory (or nearby, at least) as someone who doesn't know better saying "Java" to refer to JS (JavaScript).

NB: I have tried to word this as politely and non-derisively as I can think to. If you have any improvements, please let me know.

PS: Thank you for 1. your support of Wikipedia, 2. your support of the Internet Archive, and 3. the signal that you send by pulling back from #1 right now, when it makes a lot of sense to do so.

Fair enough. I don't believe I fall into that category though, it's not so much that I consider myself skilled enough that the safety system isn't necessary, but rather that I wish I could adjust sensitivity, because I like the idea of the system in general. In this vehicle I'm only able to disable it entirely (which seems unsafe to do, so I keep it on).

Ideally I'd like to have it disabled only when reversing. Between the backup camera, mirrors, and the rear window, the safety systems are already present. The rear bumper really does not need to be triggering emergency brakes imo.

The front bumper though - yeah that one should probably stay on, even if it annoys me sometimes.
> The price you pay on the Tesla website is for a car some time in the future, some times an indefinitely far off time in the future.

FWIW, the delivery estimates displayed on the Tesla web site for cars currently in production are pretty accurate. Also, if you order a Performance/Plaid model, you get to the front of the queue. ;-)

> I suspect the spot price for a Tesla now and here is also fluctuating, opaque, and subject to negotiation.

In that case, you're buying a used one from a dealer, so that would be true.

The annoying thing with dealers though is that when it comes to Tesla, they often have no clue what they're actually selling, or they're trying to rip off naive customers. I've seen them try to sell base Model 3's for $55K. For just a couple thousand more, you could get a brand new Model 3 Performance delivered in 2-4 weeks.

On the HTML level I would think of something like Subresource Integrity[1]:

<a href="https://example.com/hw.txt" integrity="sha384-oqVuAfXRKap7fdgcCY5uykM6+R9GqQ8K/uxy9rx7HNQlGYl1kPzQho1wx4JwY8wC">Hello World</a>

This already exists for the <script> and <link> elements and could probably be added to the <a> element. The primary usecase would probably be downloads, but it could also be interesting for regular links to other HTML pages. You could get an error page similar to the one with invalid TLS certificates.

The main issue I see is that all this would be gone if you simply "Copy Link".

Excellent question. This came up because it just died recently. She said the blender (really a hand mixer) cost $26, and she thinks she bought it 1984 or 1985. So that would be approximately $72 in today's US dollar.[0]

I can find hand mixers online from $13 to $238 (amzn). Let's agree that today's mixer will last 5 years. Also, let's pick the price "average" at $50. That would put the total cost at $400. If we go with $13, it is still $104, and unlikely we could get 5 years out of it.

So, to a customer no it is not an improvement. For the environment, no it is not an improvement. Correct me if I am wrong

To my knowledge this does not have any direct impact to the CPU branch prediction mechanism. If that had been the case then we would at least have some x86-(64) instruction to manipulate with the BP. If I write a quick example such as https://godbolt.org/z/j7Y81j5fe, I also see no such instruction in the generated output.

But what likely/unlikely mechanism can do is that it can serve as a hint to the compiler which the compiler can then use to generate more optimal code layout. For example, if we provide the compiler with likely/unlikely hints in our code, compiler will try to use that hint to stitch together the more probable code paths first. In theory this approach should result with better utilization of CPU instruction cache and thus it may lead to better performance.

Technically this is about evolving oxygen gas from water more than it is about the hydrogen end of the electrocatalytic reaction. Since this is a cathode (2H+ + 2e- -> H2 gas) vs. anode process (2H2O -> 4H+ + 4e- + O2) linked up by a wire to close the circuit, you have two chemical processes to manage. The oxygen-evolving one tends to be slower, i.e. rate limiting. For an overview:

https://sci-hub.se/10.1039/c9cs00607a

Song, et al. (2020). "A review on fundamentals for designing oxygen evolution electrocatalysts." Chemical Society Reviews.

>"Therefore, the OER is the key process that governs the overall efficiency of electrochemical water splitting. To date, IrO2 and RuO2 have been state-of-the-art OER catalysts. However, both of them are made of precious metals and the cost is high. Therefore, it is imperative to seek low-cost alternative materials that can effectively reduce the kinetic limitation of OER and improve the efficiency of water splitting."

So, they discovered that the catalyst used at the OER end has some light-activation property, which is pretty interesting, i.e. they discovered a kind of photovoltaic electrocatalyst. Whether it will prove to be industrially useful is anyone's guess. There are similar systems but they're not very practical (i.e. they require high-energy UV):

As far as hydrogen-from-water tech, again it has three plausible large-scale cleantech industrial uses: ammonia from atmospheric N2, reduction of iron ore to sponge iron, and methane (and plausibly jet fuel) production from atmospheric CO2.

Doubly so because the same oil and gas industry has spent quite a bit of money over the years to spread anti-nuclear hysteria, including covert support of environmental groups such as the Sierra Club. The effects can be seen now in EU, where gas has been labeled "green", while nuclear isn't.

This link provides a breakdown (be aware that is from an explicitly pro-nuclear group):

The oil and gas industry has tremendous incentive to expose nuclear. It's still the only game in town for truly replacing them.

I usually bill those as travel expenses (flights, hotel, food and some extra per diem).
> I bill by the hour, not the minute. If I work 10 mins on something and do nothing for the other 50, you are billed an hour.

I deal with a lot of contractors. To be clear: If I asked for a single task that takes 5 minutes and they bill me an hour for it, that's 100% fine in my book. Context switching, recording, billing, etc. aren't free. The difference between a 60-minute bill and a 10-minute bill is nothing. Let's just keep it simple and bill an hour.

But this is only for individual tasks. If someone is working independently on a project with 10 minutes here, 15 minutes there, 5 minutes a few hours later and billing each as an hour, that's not okay.

Depending on the contractor, we don't really scrutinize line items all that closely. However, once you're dealing with multiple contractors and gathering experience about how long things generally take, you start to notice some contractors are outliers in how many "hours" they claim to get things done. In some cases, if their hourly rate is low enough we may not really care, but when someone hits the combo of billing a high hourly rate and also racking up a lot of hours for relatively simple things with no ability to explain why it took longer than everyone else, it's time to phase out that contractor.

Not having one false negative is infinitely more important than having false positives as you do, while you equalize them.
I work in manufacturing and I see Excel everywhere. Here's my two cents:

Excel is universal: I can share an excel sheet with Tim from accounting, Jessica from purchasing, Jared from the warehouse, Kathy on the shop floor, John from sales, and Kim from a vendor, and I can expect them all to be able to read and make changes to it.

Another important point is it's longevity. I often find myself opening cost sheets created 30 years ago, and they work without issue in the current version of Excel. I expect they'll work 30 years from now too.

Is it the optimum tool for all jobs? No, far from it, but I've yet to encounter a situation where it turned out to be a poor choice. (Note: Obviously your database shouldn't be in Excel, but you better have an "export to Excel" feature if you expect it to be useful to others.)

"Badly designed" and "not updated" are not unique problems to Excel and I'd argue it's a whole lot easier for most people to fix an Excel sheet than even, say, a python script.
No, it hasn't.

We have decades of research on this. Rates of desistence are low. Rates of regret are low, and are lower than most other forms of medical care.

Edit: Even the submitted article admits that on one side you have medical opinion and science saying PBs are safe and reversible, but that you have Republican politicians saying they're harmful. It doesn't present any evidence that PBs are harmful. I notice that you haven't either.

And anti-trans campaigners can't, because their position is incoherent. PBs are apparently so dangerous we can't give them to children, but children who've had them are still so powerful we can't allow them to compete in sports because they'd win everything.

> [...] Monica is an old code base now. Old in the sense that it’s 7 years old and it has been touched by hundred of contributors. There are some concepts in the code that we let through, because we either didn’t know any better back then or because we didn’t want to piss off contributors, that we don’t want anymore. The project has way too many dependencies, and maintaining the code has become harder than it was before. Changing something is riskier, and takes more time. Also, we’ve seen how people use Monica, what they want to do with it, and the current code limits us way too much if we want to support what people want to use Monica for. Finally, Monica is still a side project for us. We are extremely passionate about it, and we want to also have fun building it. And the current version wasn’t that fun.
