Bezos worth is based on the company stock, and the stock going up or down does not conjure "piles of money" to the company. Executive compensation (any employees', really) is a matter to the owners of the company. I don't own any Amazon stock, do you?
That last point is fascinating. What does your process look like for keeping that up to date? Do you plug it in weekly or a similar set schedule to refresh the data on the card or is it a more adhoc thing?

I think I’d just forget to do it after a while!

The problem fundamentally with the mask debate is that surgical masks barely make a difference in transmission. If we were serious about mask wearing to prevent respiratory viral transmission, we would be wearing well-fit N95s like 3M Auras, which are virtually impossible to fit improperly and are way more comfortable than surgical masks. They are also far more effective at preventing airborne/droplet viral transmission. This, in my opinion, is one of the biggest mistakes the CDC (and other institutions) made, and it had dire consequences: millions of people died and a majority of Americans lost trust in this institution for its poor recommendations.
It's general notes. Some of them are TODOs, sometimes screenshots with notes, few with basic tables.

Nothing extraordinary.

I absolutely hate Onenote due to how it looks and forcing you to place a note on your note page to make a note :D
Probably not worth it, Zigbee is literally designed for use case like that, LoRa is designed for use cases where you'd have much wider geographical spread of sensors.

But something like solar powered sensor somewhere farther away would be a good use case.

If you have two equivalent competing companies, both paying the same salaries to the same number of employees, and one company accomplishes more by asking their workers to 4 day weeks, then that company will be more successful and can put the other one out of business.

Thus the key measure that this study would need to demonstrate would be not that the productivity/worker-hour ratio goes up but that also the productivity/worker-dollar goes up. If the latter is true, a lot of companies are going to take a close look at this because more is more.

The Jetbrains IDEs work in a generic VCS way that doesn't match how git works which makes you productive but removed from how git actually works. I've found vscode IDE is just as easy to use, but the GUI matches git very closely so you learn how git works which makes switching command line git relatively easy.
One of the developers of HighFlux here.
The deamon is written in rust and was designed and written to have a minimal CPU+Memory footprint.

> I think HighFlux is designed to solve a very limited subset of Git's usage and so they've stripped out a lot of useful commands they don't use and so they can ship a product.

Yes and no.
No - once you correlate the user intent with the git commands, you discover that to accomplish one "intent," such as "start working on a feature," - you only need one CLI/UI command: "create WIP".
So naturally, many git commands are bundled into one user intent.

Yes - true - we're just starting, so naturally focusing on the most used scenarios, gradually covering more and more cases as we progress.
The nice thing is that HighFlux is not only compatible with git but also inter-operable with it, so you can always "go back to git" - until we cover all of the scenarios.
But isn't that the "wrong" store to use (as far as performance is concerned) when you want random, row-level access?
No. It’s fine in other places.
I was always curious if you could search printer logs for details of who printed what at a company but never really spent much thought process on it. Clearly you can.

Yep, this is a mark of someone that's never used R but has heard a lot of incredibly ill informed criticism around it.

One look of dplyr code over pandas would of course disabuse anyone of the notion that R is trash and the tragedy is Python will in the current state never have anything like that. That's the advantage of the language being influenced by Lisp vs not.
> rather than interacting with the actual practitioners of the field and understanding what is happening, what are the very real limitations of it, and why their assumptions range from willfully ignorant to often simply maliciously stupid.

On the other hand, I've found that "practitioners in the field" often consistently overestimate how complex and different the human mind is from our computers.

Take the recent "LaMDA is sentient" debate. Machine learning researchers consistently and vehemently denied that LaMDA is sentient. They no doubt have a deep and subtle understanding of how LaMDA works, but apparently they didn't realize that we have no mechanistic understanding of what sentience actually is or how it works, so they have absolutely no basis for such a conclusion.

So on the one hand we have these AGI doomsayers that, per your evaluation, don't understand machine learning subtleties, and on the other hand we have some machine learning researchers skeptical of AGI who consistently overestimate human specialness.

At this time the error bars I would assign to each side are wide enough that there's lots of overlap, but given the track record of human specialness falling to algorithmic progress, I'd say some investment in AGI safety is prudent.
I use bear.app and love the simplicity but is versatile enough to all my uses cases. It only runs on Apple platforms, so maybe a deal breaker. It seems similar to Obsidian, so maybe another deal breaker. It syncs via CloudKit and for what it's worth, the devs have shared that they are working on a web app version that would presumably use CloudKit Web Services.

Japan has entered the chat...

In Japan, children are encouraged from early age to be independent. They even take the subway and bus by themselves, albeit it's significantly safer there than in other parts of the world. Still though, I think people in America have gone off the deep end.
In my twice-the-size European city, kids walk twice that distance to school and back home again, alone. Every. Single. Day. If this place isn't safe enough for kids to walk by themselves, maybe the question should be raised whether the police and municipal government really is doing their job the way they're supposed to.
Won't this incident also be counted as a 'crime' in some statistics?

What were the issues you found on Joplin that stopped you? I use it and it does what it does, which is saving/sorting/tagging notes you want to keep forever and a year. The UX is not the best, but functional. Which is my biggest gripe with it.
Sort of unrelated (but someone at Notion may actually see it here): PLEASE NOTION, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, make the tap targets for "to-do" lists larger on mobile devices. I can't stand making a to-do list in Notion if I know I have to use it on mobile. 9/10 times I tap the box to check it off, and it goes to edit mode instead of "checking it". It drives me crazy. Make it more mobile friendly, or make it an option to make it larger.

It literally is a SIMPLE fix, and I don't say that lightly. Since it's a web app you can just add a basic CSS media query for mobile devices to make the padding/sizing larger for mobile devices.
If I had a dollar for every time someone complains about how git is unfriendly, I'd have enough to buy Twitter.

I've been using version control systems since CVS and I've found git the easiest and most sensible thing to use. Admittedly, some of the commands reflect internal data structures and concepts rather than what a user would want to do but that's just a learning curve issue. To address specific points.

1. Of the 157 commands, there are maybe 10 or so that one would need on most days and maybe 5 or 6 others when things go awry. Perhaps another half dozen for specific workflows but that's it. How many times do people use git daemon or git instaweb or git fsck? Why are these listed there? I do git trainings and teach a handful of commands in half a day which are sufficient to get people started.

2. The index has been extremely useful to me when I code for a while and then later need to commit only some files or parts of files into separate commits. This is a "good thing". The workflow which the author is suggesting would be like a "git commit -am ... && git push" which is not ideal

3. There are two destructive commands. git checkout and git reset when you've not committed. These two can discard uncommitted code in the working tree and you'll lose them. Once you've committed, it's possible to undo almost anything using the reflogs. They're very useful and worth learning how to navigate and use. Even rebase --hard can be undone by switching to a previous reference.

I think this is a deliberate decision. git is a power tool that sacrifices protecting the user from mistakes to give the user fine grained power over a project. A tool that hides these things from a user and tries to wrap the whole thing in a veneer of user friendliness might be good if engineered properly but my feeling that is that it wouldn't be worth the sacrifice.

Highflux itself advertises several things like " Automatic commit on every editor save." which I'm not sure are good ideas. I hit save repeatedly while working. Each one of those saves is not meant to be a commit.
I have to use Notion for work sometimes and it makes me so angry. It just... it's painful trying to do anything with it. It's like the entire thing was written by junior devs who thought "hey, we can do this cool thing" without ever bothering to consider _if_ it should do that thing (like hide a toolbar unless you mouse over it... but the spot it's in is blank anyways, so now you don't know it's there unless by luck AND you don't save space). And then they implement it poorly. So there's a lot of poor ui choices that barely work. Arg.

I will play the devil's advocate to myself though... I know people that love it. I'm just not one of them.
The idea is that you don't need to convert your crypto to fiat. The issue is the volatility and that needs to become stable enough against fiat for it to no longer matter for people to convert it.
I did the same from the age of 7 and I turned out fine you know.
Pretty interesting. I think this is part of this notion to release half baked products, like some of the stuff in there are really cool, just enough to get you in but it doesn't scale and usually is complex to deploy/use.
On some level I agree; however, this article in particular is not a collection of virtue signals.

If I have failed to see how this is not the case, I would appreciate some examples.
My problem is that sometimes I have to "drop" things, sometimes I have to "delete" things, sometimes I have to "--delete" things, sometimes I have to "-d" things and sometimes I have to "-D" things.

There's nothing wrong with the architecture or model, it's the syntax for me.
"Yesterday, I used a simple YouTube tutorial and a popular Google Colab notebook to fine-tune Stable Diffusion on 30 cropped 512×512 photos of me. The entire process, start to finish, took about 20 minutes and cost me about $0.40. (You can do it for free but it takes 2-3 times as long, so I paid for a faster Colab Pro GPU.)" https://waxy.org/2022/11/invasive-diffusion-how-one-unwillin... (scroll down)
That’s how legends get built.
I have heard of it but never used it. I'd try it out on my personal machines. Work machines are Windows thin clients, since IT doesn't want to support Macs and the Linux teams are absolutely only concerned with dev and prod Linux machines. Plus being in HFT, the machines are all tightly locked down, couldn't even install WSL and Windows Terminal on my own.
Also, what is good and bad can change over time with the business. Few judgement calls in software will last forever.
It has been the same for me. A small but noteworthy fraction of legitimate emails go to Spam and illegitimate emails come into Inbox; in spite of marking "spam" or "not spam" multiple times.

While I always love to see these kind of storage optimization I find the lack of metrics disappointing.
Some metrics for cost saving vs query time increase would be nice (taking into account query time range and partitioning time range i.e. number of files).

From a technical stand point when looking at S3 there is a minimum request first-byte time of 200ms and if you have multiple files to query on top of the list requests for the files in a bucket paths it can add up (you can save file/index metadata data in cache to help with this).

if the query is run once a day and isn't very latency sensitive I guess it doesn't matter but some solution that looks on the query data patterns and pre-loads data from s3 to hot/local cache storage or saves the file locally on the node for a period of time would surly help.

One scenario for this is ML models refresh of time series data where you might want to add new data with historical data and create a new model (even if it's incremental you'd still want to do regression testing with historical data). Of course there are code optimizations for these without the need of the DB to the the heavy lifting but that's just one thing that comes to mind.
Don't forget about the child safety services/social workers - they should have to be reasonable too.
I don't want to be one doing the "Don't Trust reason.com to report news" schtick, but...

The only independent verification I can find on this story is a GoFundMe launched by a relative: https://www.gofundme.com/f/restore-money-lost-after-wrongful...

Reason exists to flog stories about our terrible government overlords, and they've been caught pushing bad info in the past. This doesn't even report info that is publicly available in the arrest report and court plea!

I'd strongly recommend waiting for a general news organization like the local TV station to report this first before forming too many opinions.
It's just git's UI is based on operations on the underlying storage instead of workflow intent. From that perspective branch switching and reverting a file are actually similar operations.

For many cases this would be a wrong approach. But git's storage model is quite simple and elegant, and both gives unlimited freedom in adapting it to your needs and could be dangerous if you don't understand it.

When coaching junior devs on git usage I always start with merkle trees, not with a list of commands to remember. This detour takes 20 minutes, but actually gives intuition to fix even worst mistakes without my help when they happen. I can't imagine the same with any other VCS.
I never said to leave him alone or that he's a hero or that he's the only one driving humanity forward or that he's perfect. Sometimes he's an asshole. Sometimes he's an idiot. He's flawed like every human.

Your childish cult-like "spaceman bad" programming and angry projection of your daddy issues says more about you than anyone.
The only thing that's ridiculous is a simplistic sweeping statement like that. For one thing, no one even said "more work" necessarily, although that is absolutely perfectly possible and valid, but better work, and better overall performance as in morale, loyalty, effectiveness (better imagination and problem solving), longevity (less turnover, more return on training investment, better institutional knowledge retention), etc.
I like to describe Confluence as "a wiki written by someone who has never used a wiki". I feel the same way about Notion and everything it tries to do.
Take a look at NASA STDs and you’ll understand there’s a world of difference between the requirements levied on human rated flights. Those extra requirements dramatically increase cost.

The quiet secret is that CCP can bypass a ton of requirements that NASA can’t. That is, until they do something like lose an astronaut and then I suspect they will get much more oversight.

Correct! There's a lot of crazy people out in the world who'll call the cops for all manner of things. The correct response would have been to ignore the call following a couple questions by the 911 operator. "Is the child in danger in any way?" the response would be "No." and then hang up on them.
Reminds me of the time my son finally gathered the confidence to take the training wheels off his bike and learn to ride it without them. My wife and I were walking, and he was on his bike, and he was so happy and pumped about his achievement, that he asked to ride farther away, out of our sight.

Now, this is a peaceful suburban neighborhood we're talking about, and we're on a stretch between his school and a park near our home. He's riding his bike on the sidewalk, and he's being careful about it.

Off he goes, and the two of us stroll peacefully until we see him stopped, with an old lady talking to him. He wasn't wearing his biking helmet that day, and we had to endure a lecture about it and veiled threats -- "I could have called CPS, you know" -- and smile politely all the way to avoid escalating.

Somewhere along the way, our society blurred the line between "stepping in to prevent child abuse" and "thinking you're entitled to being hostile and sanctimonious to other parents".
My neighbor (not old) threatened to call the police on my 12 year old daughter because she didn't stop for him... to scold her. On the surface he's a reasonable, responsible adult but for some reason was/is triggered by neighborhood kids simply "having fun". People can be strange.
Any alternatives you'd recommend? I'm not happy with Notion at all, but I haven't been able to find a good alternative for my own personal use:

- Hierarchical notes

- Note-level sharing for collaboration

This has to be the silliest thing he has promoted, unless he is saying that (e.g.) quantum physics will not end up being computable. Consciousness as implemented relies on cellular processes, some of which necessarily involve quantum phenomena. It is funny to single out consciousness from among myriad other sorts of biological activity and behavior.

>Do not doubt that the number of instructions will grow as large as is found in x86 and ARM

x86 has at least ~1,000 instructions,[0][1] maybe more depending on how you count. I can't believe RISC-V will approach that number. I couldn't easily find how many instructions arm64 has. But you may be right about RISC-6, only I think any "RISC-6" will just be RISC-V with less useful instructions depreciated

Plainly, that is not the case, as you are choosing to not spend your every waking moment to stop the antichrist AI coming into existence.

So either it's less obvious than you're claiming, or you are taking the threat of creating an evil AGI not seriously enough according to your own beliefs.

This is truly tragic, I feel for civilians. As an EU resident, I want the EU to take actionable steps and achieve peace. Alas, I don’t see it happening. Everything that’s been done only led to escalation.

P.S. destroying civilian power infrastructure was one of the first things US-led coalition did in the Gulf War. Yes, it’s horrible for civilians, but you can’t ignore the fact it has a military purpose. Disrupting the energy balancing will have direct consequences for Ukrainian armed forces as they use rail for shipping ammo, weapons and personnel.
