She is not going to be a mother to those children. She is not going to care for them. She will not be a part of their development. They will be entering their tween years when she gets out. Her children will not know her and will not particularly want to have a relationship with her.

"Stock" is the word used to describe the sum of an asset held by investors. Google "stock to flow" to see how "stock" is commonly used for assets in general and commodities like gold in particular.

You will also find the answers to your questions about whether to count gold below ground.

What if you CAN'T just "go hardcore" at the drop of a hat because some jackass asks you to? What if you have a family to take care of? Or your own health? You sign on at a company for a solid 9-5 week with the expectation that there's going to be little, if any overtime, and that overtime would be on rare exceptions.

Then some jackass takes everything over and tells you to work twice as much or GTFO.

No dude, that's not "doing the minimum" or "being lazy" that's a drastic change. I don't think he should have gotten away with doing what he's doing.

I am very fucking proud of doing great work. I will even pull a few long days as needed to make something close or solve an issue. I'm not going to work 80 hour weeks. In fact, I think it's unethical to work those kind of hours - at some point you're going to ruin your long term health, the wellbeing of your family, and the quality of the work you produce. It's just all around foolish.
His labs are pretty hard data if you ask me. And there are many people who do it. And the evidence is overwhelming. Look at the cholesterol drugs that enzymatically transform LDL to HDL. They improved peoples cholesterol massively and it had zero impact on cardiac events. Zero.

Presumably you aren't released until the actual tokens are in hand, so decoys just make the attacker angrier.
I think instead of overall rankings, it would be more informative for law schools to have rankings for the specific things people actually care about. So things like: prospects for getting a Big Law job, getting a federal law clerkship, doing public interest work, etc.

Sure, people will always care about overall ranking for the prestige (though I expect overall rankings to correlate highly with big law job odds/overall compensation) but at least if it's split up into these very specific sub-criteria, then people can't quite game the rankings in a dishonest way.
As someone raised by parents with mental problems, I also share your disgust here.

The children here having resources helps, but having a mom + dad is important and there's pretty much no way around that.

No. It’s driven by decent people tired of scams and fraudsters. Let’s keep religion out of the debate.
Heaven, hell, life after death are all completely unrelated to whether or not there is a God. Conflating them makes the question more prosaic.
I am a bit perplexed about Binance recommending self-custodial wallets, heavily promoting its own Trust Wallet[0]. They are even offering zero withdrawal fee for transfers from Binance to Trust. Given that only the core of Trust is open-source [1], is it possible that the closed-source parts contain some backdoor?

I went for an interview there a few months ago and was told by a “solution architect” that they’d built a big data pipeline and access service using a fork of Flask (why?!) without any validation on incoming data. I asked if this caused any problems so far and the answer I got was basically “no, it didn’t, until people started using it”. I’d hard avoid.

I was referring to when this was built, ages ago, and the reality this helped come about.

Today most home networks have NAT for for v4, and then NATless IPv6 (or no IPv6 as the case may be).

Trivia: NAT is not routing, the normative router requirements RFC actually specifically forbids tampering with the IP source or destination address fields.

Likely because that's the one he's invested in.
I simply added the "library id" as a prefix to almost every table's primary key. Every lookup specified it with an equality filter, so essentially it was thousands of standalone libraries in a single schema.

One hiccup was that when the query cardinality estimator got confused, it would occasionally ignore the partition prefix and do a full scan somewhere, bloating the results by a factor of 2000x! This would cause dramatic slowdowns randomly, and then the DB engine would often cache the inefficient query plan, making things slow until it got rebooted.

This is a very deep rabbit hole to go down. For example, many large cloud vendors have an Iron Rule that relational databases must never be used, because they're concerned precisely about this issue occurring, except at a vastly greater scale.

I could have used actual database partitioning, but I discovered it had undesirable side-effects for some cross-library queries. However, for typical queries this would have "enforced" the use of the partitioning key, side-stepping the problem the cloud vendors have.

Modern versions of SQL Server have all sorts of features to correct or avoid inefficient query plans. E.g.: Query Store can track the "good" and "bad" version of each plan for a query and then after sufficient samples start enforcing the good one. That would have been useful back in 2007 but wasn't available, so I spent about a month doing the same thing but by hand.
Stealing other people's money might be the more likely reason as humans tend to be very sensitive about this.

It's gross to me.

The moral here is that you and people in similar positions convinced everyone else that there was too much risk to go forward. Either by direct or, indirect action and implication. Sometimes, just seeing what your own team needs to feel safe and seeing what everyone else is or not doing on the same front is enough to make the call one way or the other.

> why would affirmative action be viewed as so important that schools abandon participation in the premier ranking system in order to pursue it through a backdoor? I am genuinely curious why affirmative action is considered so sacred that elite schools suddenly reject the ranking system they have spent decades trying to climb.

Yale, Harvard, and Stanford have established their place at the top of the law school rankings. They have been at the top for decades (I applied to law school in 2004 and they were well-established as the top-3 even back then), so it is unlikely that they will be considered to have fallen in anyone's esteem anytime soon.

My guess is that this move, and the move by the ABA to no longer require law schools to have applicants take the LSAT, [1] are both moves being taken in advance of the affirmative action cases currently at the Supreme Court. The schools know that if SCOTUS gets rid of affirmative action, it will be very difficult for them to maintain diversity if they continue asking students for LSAT scores, and have to report them to US News. These moves make their admissions processes more opaque.

I thought it was interesting that in the WSJ's piece about the ABA decision on the LSAT, the only school quoted on how the move might not actually help diversity was UC Berkeley. They are already not allowed to consider race outright (due to CA law), so they would have to fall back on metrics like GPA — which they indicate may have even more correlations with race.

I built image processing pipelines that have been used to follow patients throughout dozens if not hundreds of large clinical trials.

Apart from that, I built autojump, a command line tool that accelerates navigation in the terminal. This in turn inspired z, zoxide, and other tools.

A funny one is that I asked a few fairly basic questions when SO was still in its infancy. These turned out to have an enormous success. Some are still the authoritative page on the question.
Same. I've been hounded by coworkers and friends and even family to do crypto, for -years-. I told them it all it has no value, leave me alone.

I thought I'd have to eat crow when Bitcoin hit 60k. At least, theoretically, I still thought it was dumb.

Just a tiny slice of just desserts. Hopefully more to come.
I've observed this same tactic discussed at the High School level: some are proposing removing all AP classes because not enough diversity students take those classes. The classes and tests are deemed racist.

I update them when they actually change. The version and last-updated date are printed on the bottom left corner. (Not the date on the side; that's the volume date, not the chart date.) For example one procedure I use frequently has "Orig-D 20DEC21" printed in the bottom left corner. If your electronic version stamp matches the one on the paper copy, nothing about the procedure has changed, even if a new volume has been published.

He's still alive. What Weiss did was arguably a lot worse than what Holmes did. Him and his friends basically stole half a billion dollars from an insurance company in what was at the time one of the largest corporate frauds ever. I think the state government and some other insurance companies had to basically bail them out in order to make the customers whole. Then he went on the run for 3 years until he was caught. He was living a life of luxury etc all stuff Holmes was never accused of. The only thing that's similar between them is that the loss amount was high. Though he did actually pay most of the restitution he was ordered, whereas Holmes will probably end up paying nothing.

what do you guys mean by "blip"? I'm not familiar with that term.
I hear you, but things will be different this time around. It would take me 20 minutes to explain, but gist is there is a HUGE diff between senior engineer and senior tech, there was no H1B phenom until 2001, almost no senior level engineers (cough) remaining in the biz until around 2006 (thanks to dot-com bust nuclear winter) and balance wasn't even restored until recently (very recently) because, you know, engineers with 10 years experience aren't half as confident as techs with 5 years experience. If you're a senior level engineer who can write operating systems, firmware and glance at a data center blueprint and see RF signaling issues as easily as you can look at a schematic and see DMA inefficiencies, are you going to pledge allegiance to a turd like company run into the ground by the spoiled Boomers or are you going to start your own company (or throw in with some hungrah folks you maybe met saving from the supremely over-confident senior technician crowd)? This time around, those Strange Conditions don't exist anymore and, much as it was in the 80s, you can't buy/refi a house in the US unless you can show significant ATR and lastly, with tightening credit (that comes with higher interest rates and, for now at least, higher home prices), you are going to need to be compensated in greenbacks (not stock) and show stability (not 1-3 years per gig)...all things that are harder in startup-land. For now, find another gig with a large company, go overseas (Europe not Middle Eassssst) if you have to. I will write a book, but they won't let me publish until the movie is done roflmao
Agreed. The petulance is understandable -- LeCun should be, and probably now is, embarrassed by what he put out there and the response it got. Petulance is not the most productive way to move forward though.

You have to wonder whether anyone on the team developing it ever sat down and tried to use it adversarially. Or were they too busy tweaking hyperparameters, running benchmarks, and making a slick website?

AI hypesters dump on Gary Marcus for being an old-school AI dinosaur who complains about the deep learning hype while not having produced anything better himself. But one lesson from this should be that it might be useful to have a few Gary Marcuses on staff to tear down your shit in private before you fail in public.

That's the usual way to "shill" a coin. Say something people would agree to and then say, well there is this one exception...

However, I believe that's not what OG was doing. Coins like the one he mentioned are used for illegal money transfers. So they actually have a use case unlike everything else in Crypto.
Ohh...that makes so much more sense now! thanks and well done

I don't think twitter will die, I mean myspace never truly died. But I did hear its future being compared to AM radio, where the advertisers pulled out (already happened) and so needing a source of income more or less sold to those with agendas (political talk radio, religious radio, minority languages radio). I see a similar future for twitter, where only those with agendas will invest in the platform (since lack of moderation and verification can't be deemed safe for normal advertising), and those with agendas will become the major source of income and therefore the future of the platform will form around them thus alienating the majority of the population and current user base.

More or less it will become a place riddled with propaganda, more misinformation than it currently has and will likely never recover as a place for advertising or as a public forum of sorts.

So it won't physically die, but probably soon it will have sold it soul.

CZ may have planned on dumping FTT, causing a run on the bank, and then acquiring everything for almost nothing. Had it not been a fraud, it could have been a brilliant (illegal??) move. Now that it is a fraud, CA is trying to prevent the contagion from trying to take down the whole crypto market.

Hilarious if CZ managed to sell 15% for the tools to get 100% though.

If the kids didn't buy at the time, that means they didn't buy them before when the tickets were more expensive. Which means that also wouldn't be interested in buying the more expensive scalped tickets either.

Put into context:
Tickets are $30 - kid doesn't buy them
next day Tickets are $29 - scaler buys them before the kid

The kid has already decided that $30 is too much. For the resale to be worth it, it would need to be more than $1 gains, but that is more than the kid has already associated the value to be

There is an inherent contradiction calling censorship = free speech. Censorship of any form is already a violation of free speech, and therefore cannot be free speech itself. That said, no platform can be absolutist or it would devolve into a porn site, however there is a "spirit" of free speech, that is meant to uphold the principle and allow for ANY subject matter to be discussed.

This doesn't mean say anything you want, but for any given subject matter, there is absolutely a way to discuss it respectfully. This is the type of censorship that is common online right now. Platforms aren't just following guidelines, they are actively deciding which things can be discussed and which things cannot. In the case of Twitter, it seems this censorship is controlled by the stakeholder advertisers. Personally I would like to live in a world where society is not controlled by powerful capitalist interests.
It's hard for me to say. I've written a few random open source projects for Wordpress and Webpack that consistently get a few hundred daily downloads even 7 years later, but it's all behind the scenes stuff that doesn't really get talked about even by the people that use my projects.

I've also created a question-based card game for social connection that I produced and sold 200 units of. Far less scale, but people tell me weekly about the impact that it had on their lives and the connections that they formed through it. It's really shaped the values of the social community I belong to, so in a ripple effect kind of way, I think it's had a pretty huge impact.

And I've also worked on some

Visual Speech Recognition for Multiple Languages in the Wild
Visual speech recognition (VSR) aims to recognise the content of speech based on the lip movements without relying on the audio stream. Advances in deep learning and the availability of large audio-visual datasets have led to the development of much more accurate and robust VSR models than ever before. However, these advances are usually due to larger training sets rather than the model design. In this work, we demonstrate that designing better models is equally important to using larger training sets. We propose the addition of prediction-based auxiliary tasks to a VSR model and highlight the importance of hyper-parameter optimisation and appropriate data augmentations. We show that such model works for different languages (English, Mandarin, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian) and outperforms all previous methods trained on publicly available datasets by a large margin. It even outperforms models that were trained on non-publicly available datasets containing up to to 21 times more data. We show furthermore that using additional training data, even in other languages or with automatically generated transcriptions, results in further improvement.
I actually found it useful. Maybe the advertising was too optimistic but it was still a good tool to have
