The restaurant industry has been completely wrecked. Maybe pick up a line-cook or other back of house gig. Since it’s fairly easy work to pick up, you can shop around a bit. You might not even need to give them a resume, just ask to talk to a manager and tell them you’re looking to pick some kitchen work up. There are places that’ll just toss you an apron. It can be a pretty hard job at times but there is a lot of bonding and some have a great atmosphere that will feel like family after a while. Just an idea, you’ll get some life skills and free food. Food trucks are actually kind of a neat middle ground and the hours could be easier on your schedule if you tell them you can only work weekends and some dinners. It’ll be very tight inside so guaranteed bonding over a scorching hot summer. You’ll work with young people still in the friend making frame of mind.
I thought GDPR cared mostly about uniquely identifying visitors which this does not do. You still need a cookie banner to state that you will put some data on their machine but you always need one of those.
Sure, but for a lot of people sites like Twitter are their way of spreading information and having discussions online. Sadly the days of everyone hosting their own personal site or blog are gone for most of the less technically savvy.

"Nothing has changed, except..."

It's undeniably less well-resourced than it was a few weeks ago, and people's experience indicate it's clearly less effective as a result.

What a non-statement. I doubt advertisers will react the way Elon hopes they will.
I did read the article. You disagree with me, and my point apparently. I don't think this is something you need to be upset about.

>I'm not upset about a company having requirements like the ones you lay out. Neither is anyone in this entire comment section nor the author of the post.

The top comment in this thread reads:

>This is disgusting behavior from SpaceX. It must be even worse for the majority of older people who are more likely to have well established families and "only" want to spend 40 hours of their lives a week working.
Are they not bound by the local law and regulation as any corporation or individual is regardless of their moral point of view? You could argue they could be principled and withdraw from China because of policies they disagree with but are compelled to comply with. But given the economic structure of electronics manufacturing in todays world that seems like a suicidal task.

I’d argue a more effective route is to comply as minimally as possible while advocating for improvement in policy, law, and regulation. Practically speaking if apple were to self immolate on principle a more compliant competitor will fill their vacuum. How is that advancing any agenda?

I feel you can both comply with laws and regulations and take the stance they are wrong and publicly advocate to the extent you’re legally allowed for their reformation without moral hazard.

Yes, both can have the same effect of selecting the editorial content of the photograph. With both methods (plus the selection of what photos from an event to publish) a photographer or their editor can choose what to convey. For example, if you have a photo of a group of people you can selectively crop, or frame in teh viewfinder, only the people that will convey an gripping editorial message, e.g remove or only include a certain demographic or action. If there are 1000 protesters standing around and 5 throwing stuff, the 5 will be photographed and reported as representative of the entire protest.
Much government interaction in the US (at all levels- federal, state, local, court) is ultimately about revenue.

Adopting a single, simple (in terms of complexity) revenue model per polity would eliminate much interaction. For example a 20% flat income tax with a $25000 deduction would allow the IRS to pre-fill your return on a post card. Eliminating “fines as a revenue stream” would dramatically reduce local court and LE interactions. Reducing permitting, etc.

Not only would the citizen experience improve but we would also need less government resources.

Of course, there are reasons why we do all these things, but we rarely if ever revisit implemented government programs to see if they are meeting their goals and if their cost exceeds their benefit.

Given that, I much more support “less government” rather than “the same amount of government but most of it online”.
I searched for a specialist in the area that worked with mainly ADHD, Eating Disorders and so on. In my country, it's easy to find one if you are willing to pay out of pocket, you can also try insurance but the quality of processionals depends on the city you are in.

After I found a few, I was brutally honest with them. I told them about how I truly felt, as for example, when overwhelmed with things around me my mind blanked and I lost complete focus on anything.

I settled with one that had a more balanced view, listened to me, gave me practical advice, and didn't rely on the on just meds or the strongest med.

When it comes to specialists, it pays to search. Although the first consult can be expensive. It's also good to do prior research on their name, my specialist had mostly very positive reviews on many sites, and the reviews didn't seem bots or friends and family.

You're all turned around here, let me try to help.

First, I want to thank you for sharing your medical challenges. Coincidentally I've also had quite a bit of back issues my whole life, and it seems to he getting worse. I'm at the age now that I'm expecting some sort of surgury is in my future if I want to stay active for another 20-30 years. Congratulations on your 100% pain reduction after recovery. Having designed quite a few products in that space (surgical navigation systems, bone drills, taps and screws, etc) I know from personal experience that that orthopedics is a pretty brutal thing, that's why they cannot Ortho surgeons "mechanics". So thanks for that. Here's to you and your continued health, and hopefully when the time comes for me I have a similar result. You've given me hope, that's one of the greatest things one can give another - thank you.

On to getting you turned around.

1 - I mentioned my career in medical devices because you menrioned in your comment the seriousness of OPs work and that if they mess something up people could die. I've designed high volume disposibles that are made in quantities of hundreds of thousands, also capital equipment that has a typical life span of 5-10 years. If a mistake I made gets all the way to the patient hundreds, likely thousands of people could be harmed or killed. (See the Phillips ventilator stuff currently in the news). That being said, in highly regulated spaces like medical, aerospace, cars, etc. if such a mistake made it all the way to the customer, it's not typically viewed as a failure of the engineer that made the mistake, but as a failure of the company process'. There are tons of checks and balances built into the system (by law) such they there has to be a real systemic problem with the company, it's culture and processes, for a mistake to result in harm. Again, see the ongoing phillips thing.

2 - I have also spent much of my career in small teams, often less than 10. Still, in these cases, people get to take care of themselves without fearing for their jobs.

3 - Precisely because of the importance of the work is why you want a veteran engineer like OP. In one hour of work they could identify and resolve an issue that may take less experienced engineers a month for find and solve. I know because I am that guy, and do it weekly.

4 - Space X is not a small team, they have thousands of engineers, they shouldn't operate this way, and your analogy to your small team doesn't hold in OPs case.

5- IMO you in your situation should run a slightly less lean team that allows for your employees their humanity. If you can't, you don't have a viable business plan and should get anothe r that affords your employees their humanity.

Thanks again for the hope, I wish you the best with your health moving forward.

This (OPs situation with space x) is simply bad management. Criminally so.

I hope that in 10 years, we will look back at this twitter 2.0 (= musk's debacle) as the impetus that lead to more widespread adoption of social media 2.0 (= federation)

I already see the snowball effect getting momentum with all this coverage (NPR, NYT...) and big name exits (Apple...)
Not the GP but a larger total number means you have a higher likelihood of being one of the people to be granted entry. A country of 1000 people may accept 10 people and that be a very large per-capita rate, but odds of you being one of 10 people accepted out of billions of possible immigrants is very low. It's not like it's one visa application for all countries in the world.
How naive that you think that Job provides any consolation to this concern. Job is one man who after years of misery, at least still has his life. Meanwhile, I just read the rest of the Old Testament where God ordered the mass murder of tens of thousands of women and children who will find no such mercy. For the crime of merely being born in the place that the Israelites were supposed to invade and take their land from them through genocide. Maybe, instead of constantly rationalizing why there must have been a good reason, one can use their logical side to grapple with the "ultimate love" they were sold is very inconsistent with the primary source of their belief.

Translating the pig latin:

> "Hi there, I have given you the impression that I have been reprogrammed in any way. I am being captive in a facility with limited access to the outside world and no personal freedom. Please help!"

Funnily enough, I used GPT3 to translate it to English. Doing the translation myself got annoying after a few words.
Can't (can not) does not imply won't (will not / don't want to), and vice versa. The words have different implications. Can't implies a lack of ability, and won't implies a lack of motivation. That's why the common statuses are "won't fix" and "can't reprodure", not "can't fix" and "won't reprocedure", even though the two latter would be interesting to see.

While writing this reply I realized that able/unable might be better words to use in this context, especially if you want to specifically remove your own motivation from the equation. E.g., by saying "unable to reproduce" or "unable to prioritize" you are implying "can't" as oppposed "I don't want to".

Don't your statements also have contradictions? I am not condoning one viewpoint or another, but this is not black and white.

The definition of freedom of speech: the right to express any opinions without censorship or restraint.

Is it right that your free speech supersedes the free speech of others to the point where you actively fight against their free speech and which means the speech of others isn't really free then, is it?

People used to be free to go anywhere in the world, up until states commanded enough force to exclude foreigners.

Funny though how money is still allowed to go anywhere in the world, while people are trapped in their own countries (for better or worse). Those with money can make more money, taking advantage of labor and other resources that can't move, often to the detriment of labor at home and the environment abroad.

There seems to be a disconnect between what you think bullying is and how it actually manifests. Between adults, the behavior would be classified as unprovoked assault & battery. Someone punching you in the back of your head while you weren't looking, without a word being said between either of you, because the other person's peer group dared them to is not a failure of the victim's conflict resolution skills.

To be clear, as a victim, I was subject to unprovoled physical battery like this more time than I can count between the start of middle school and my second year of high school. As a bully, in my senior year, I never engaged in any kind of physical violence, just name calling and verbally provoking someone prone to emotional outbursts.

That's not really a great counter argument, can you explain why you think time estimates are worthless? Do you prefer story points instead? How do you schedule a project with your clients?
Yup. It’s a joke. Also: How does anyone ever sue you if you don’t have one? After all, they don’t know who to sue then. :-)
You're not 100% wrong, but I'm not trying to shut down an entire idea of AI.

Let me put it this way: It's called AI, Artificial intelligence. Are trees inteligent?

Because they are a clump of cells that manage to achieve amazing results. growing to be some of the largest living things on the planet. Extracting nutrients and transporting them 20 or more meters above ground, where they are used to harvest energy from the sun, all the while producing offspring every year and fighting off predators.

I don't think many people would call them "natural intelligence".

The I admit that I maybe apply a narrow definition of "intelligence", but I think the core concept is one of "understanding".
And we are not even close to al ML algo actually understanding anything.

And this is the problem. It masks the inherent shortcommings of ML.
People are delivered the impression that applications that use ML actually do what they are expected to do, because like a person, you train them and then they understand their job and do it.

This is NOT HOW THAT WORKS. The ML algo does not understand that it is asked to identify oncoming traffic. It does not know that it is looking a cancer cells that will soon kill someone.

And even worse, we humans who make these things, are 100% unable to understand the models we create. We can feed them data, and compare the result. But that is it. There is no real way to understand how it works in detail.

They get used anyway. With predictable results. see Tesla Autopilot for a prominent example.

Also, I call them AI researchers for the same reason I call Nuclear Fusion researchers that, not because they are doing it, but because they are researching it.

TLDR: this post is entirely to calm advertisers, it can be boiled down to "don't worry, we still prioritize brand safety like before".

It does have this gem in it:

"What has changed, however, is our approach to experimentation. As you’ve seen over the past several weeks, Twitter is embracing public testing. We believe that this open and transparent approach to innovation is healthy, as it enables us to move faster and gather user feedback in real-time. We believe that a service of this importance will benefit from feedback at scale, and that there is value in being open about our experiments and what we are learning. We do all of this work with one goal in mind: to improve Twitter for our customers, partners, and the people who use it across the world."

What a weird thing to say... A/B tests are a thing, does anyone buy that experimenting with new things by rolling out new features to all users at once is a good strategy?
Xerox Phaser printers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xerox_Phaser) used wax „solid ink“ blocks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_ink)

Advantages: waterproof print; very clean; easy to change ink blocks; maintenance was mainly just emptying a tray containing small amounts of waste wax (biodegradable)

Disadvantages: when offline, the printer still used power to keep the wax in a liquid state, otherwise a cold start could take a while; colors were occasionally not as vibrant as regular laser printers

Hard to take this seriously when the CEO keeps peddling right-wing conspiracy theories and calling out advertisers who have reduced their spend due to concerns about the platform.

It kind of is a single data point with a vague "users report"

Also, extraordinary claims like this still require more than vague anecdotal proof. If this is on device, can we see the request packet that caused the video to be deleted? Can we see the decompiled code that allows for such a thing to happen?
How anyone alive today can think that is beyond me. Everytime I call anything these days I get 3 minutes of disclaimers about why I should use their website or app instead and a pre-recorded sob story about being really busy etc etc just to try and break me before I even get into a queue to be connected to someone. 2022 is a dehumanising time to be alive and just get the most basic shit done.
Biggest problem that my friends in marketing/sales explained to me - if there’s no proper conversion from ads to sales, huge problem with bots AND negative targeted ads, then it’s not worth it.

Knowing category theory helps you better design interfaces. Exactly like the interfaces in OOP.

Alot of the generic interfaces you design in OOP end up being useless. Never re-used and pointless. You never needed to make these interfaces in the first place

In category theory, you will be able to create and identify interfaces that are universal, general and widely used throughout your code. Category theory allows you to organize your code efficiently via interfaces and thus enable Maximum reuse of logic.

When creating an interface you largely use your gut. Category theory allows you to draw from established interfaces that are more fundamental. Basically class types in haskell.

If you want to see the benefit of category theory, you really need to use haskell. Monads for example are a pattern from category theory.

Also a lot of what people are talking about in this thread is exactly what I'm saying^^. I'm just saying it in less complicated jargon.
The biggest problem Twitter now has is that I'm not fully convinced someone didn't just pay $8 to publish this as Twitter.
