Hey, many thanks for the response.

The goal isn't wealth creation or to boost my career. The desire comes from two things: 1/ Physics has always interested me, I am willing to do deeper, good at Maths (calculus and all), and I regretted not pursuing this more thoroughly (and abandoning it) during my undergrad. So, kind of want to finish it off. 2/ I am looking for a permanent switch from business to other fields. Not to do with money so much, more to do with working on things I like.

I recognize the faculty positions would be limited and ultra competitive. I envisaged becoming a part of those research labs (provided everything works out), or join someone as a postdoc fellow / Research Scholar. (Money is not the objective here). A Phd helps because my knowledge at this point is more theoretical and just because of what I read. Your perspective on Phd helps, many thanks for that too. (I have had many others say the same thing :) . So I know it will be tough.)

If you don't mind me asking, where did you end up when you say you went into industry?
Cool. But if you're no_std compatible, please be so by default. It doesn't matter if you're my direct dependency, but it does with transitive dependencies.

As a counterexample, I always have location turned on in Android and use maps for directions from my house. The location at the bottom of a Google search is a different city from where I live. It has never shown the actual city where I live despite it being easily available as my address is saved as home in Google maps.
Nope, i think it’s enabled automatically.
> I don't think one has to identify whom something was stolen from to know that it was stolen.

If we are talking about people, then yes, but governments are different. They are not people. Governments are law makers. So you are claiming that British law shouldn't apply and I am asking you for the name of the government whose law you think should apply. That at least deserves an answer.

The UK was ruling Egypt at the time and you have to prove its own laws weren't being followed -- which is unlikely to be the case as regardless of how we may not like Perfidious Albion, they are a stickler for things like property rights. The British museum paid for these artifacts, and you need to prove that the people who sold them those artifacts had no right to do so, but these antiquities traders were acting in accordance to British law, so you need to prove that someone else's law should have been applied instead. Whose?

> If I find something, it's not my responsibility or right to decide whose it is, and my inability to do so doesn't make it mine.

Again, people aren't governments. If you find oil in the ground, it may not belong to you, but if the UK finds oil somewhere in the mandate of Palestine, you can be sure that it belongs to the UK, since that is territory controlled by UK, and the oil belongs to the government that controls the territory, not France or China or some other government that doesn't control the territory. And if some Arab tribes conquer that region, then the oil belongs to them. And if some other nation conquers it, then the oil again gets a new owner. Or do you think the House of Saud was the first group of people to live in Saudi Arabia? No, but they were the government in charge when the oil was found, and no one has managed to conquer them -- that's the only reason it's their oil -- because they found it and they rule over the territory. And who do you think will be the owner of any artifacts that Saudi Arabia digs up as they search for more oil? Yes, it will be Saudi Arabia. The rightful owner. And they can transfer those artifacts to some museum in Riyadh if they want, even if the artifacts were made by some ancient civilization that has no genetic relationship to the house of Saud. They could be of Ethiopian origin, but Saudi Arabia is not going to "return" them to Ethiopia. This is the definition of what it means to be the government - it means your laws are the ones that apply in the territory you rule over.

I think that's the mistake you are making here. Maybe you think there was some international law in effect at the time? International law originates with the UN charter, which post-dates what the UK did, and you wouldn't want to apply a law to an action which predated the law, as that's understood to be an illegitimate application of law. If you start retroactively applying the UN charter to all government actions that happened in the past, you will find every government on earth an inveterate thief and lawbreaker - from the UK to the Egyptian Pharaohs, they all stole everything.

The initial back-up isn't the problem. It's keeping it current over time as you add new music. Then you need to keep track of which songs are on which drive and also access your backups often enough that some of the routine error checking happens to mitigate bit rot.

Especially a problem with flash storage since it really isn't designed for long-term storage without being plugged in.
I neither deletes nor changes you files; the reddit post is simply based on a misunderstanding of how iTunes Match works (You import a file on one device, then all other devices receive the matched version.)

On the latter - The NLRB's view of the NLRA is not the same as the courts view of the NLRA a lot of times.

The administrative judges of the NLRB are frequently overturned in the relative scheme of things.

What happens is that they are appointed by the president (and confirmed by the senate). So depending on the party in power/remaining terms of service, you can get fairly ideological collections of judges. It has become more bi-modal over the years, like a lot of the US.

So depending on prevailing legal ideologies vs partisan ideologies, you end up with lots of overturned cases.

Here's the last 10 years:

https://www.nlrb.gov/reports/nlrb-case-activity-reports/unfa...

So last year, they lost in appeals court 35% of the time.

The average agency reversal rate is closer to ~15%, so 35% is a lot.

The spike in 2016 is also interesting, not sure what happened there (IE it's not obvious that it's related to obama leaving office in jan, 2017). I suspect instead someone funded clearing of backlog or something.

All that said, the NLRB pushes parties to settle 90+% of cases to start (this combines their two overall areas), which is actually theoretically great. NLRB proceedings are not that expensive for people, unlike court, so it's unlikely to be people trying to bankrupt each other as you would find in straight civil court.
Once it gets into appeals, it gets expensive (leading into the above).

So it's not all bad.

> There was no concept of 'color'

Utter nitpick: there were a few system calls for future support of color devices. The idea was to support up to 32 bitplanes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_plane).

Inside Macintosh says: “if you want to set up your application now to produce color output in the future, you can do so by using QuickDraw procedures to set the foreground color and the background color.“

And there was code for it. See for example https://github.com/jrk/QuickDraw/blob/master/Util.a#L407

I don’t think that ever was used, though. When color arrived, they (rightfully; bit planes are slow for about anything but transparent overlays) went for packed pixels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packed_pixel)
To demonstrate the power of vector embeddings, we built a visualization tool that lets you visualize question and answer pairs that you submit.
The tool queries the GPT API to generate the embedding, performs dimensionality reduction using UMAP, and displays the result in 3D alongside other user-submitted questions and answers.
You can select clusters of points to understand how ChatGPT associates different questions and answers, as well as select them individually.

Appreciate the feedback.

I just store mp3 on my phone. I absolutely hate music streaming services nowadays, but for a different reason.
My understanding of that idiom (and how I see it most commonly used) is that the skepticism is proportional to the salt. Slightly suspect things only get a bit of salt and skepticism, hugely unproven things get a lot of salt and skepticism. Given that, an unproven but large claim would need a lot of salt and skepticism

Based on the supposed origin of the idiom, I think salt and skepticism being proportional is a bit closer to the original meaning, than them being inversely proportional, though neither is especially close. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_of_salt
No, but would be cool if they used it

> I know the best of my life is behind me.

Wrong Mindset. The best is yet to come.
What made me super skeptical about the project is that I could not find out any numbers regarding economic viability:

1) How much energy per pulse is a commercial device expected to achieve?

2) How many pulses per second are realistic?

3) How many tons of copper/steel/capacitors per MW of power capacity are expected?

Because if you're gonna need a warehouse full of capacitors, several big turbogenerators worth of high quality steel and copper PLUS all the vacuum/plasma tech just to hit a few 100MW of continuous electrical power-output, then I frankly do not see how that would EVER be viable/attractive ANYWHERE, and NO amount of scientific progress might be able to change that...

But the concept to me at least looks more attractive than big magnetic-confinement plants, where the problems are even bigger (unaffordable plasmachamber + cryo-infra, super problematic neutron-flux, AND STILL needing all the heat => motion => electricity circus from a conventional plant).
This can be used generate all bit sequences over a particular range that have the same Hamming weight. I have needed that before when testing error-correction code decoders to make sure they properly correct all of the possible error patterns that they should be able to.
Can you gain deeper understanding without first gaining superficial understanding, though? And if not and our current method of imparting superficial knowledge breaks down, wouldn't there be a pipeline problem because much fewer students would get to the point where you can start teaching them deep understanding?

(Imagine a scenario in which no assessment is possible in any mathematics course below the level of differential geometry. Would "we just have to switch to teaching students advanced math instead" be a solution?)

Something along the lines of this is already a problem at US universities, as students chegg, stackexchange and collaborate their way through up-to-junior courses and then are so underprepared in senior-level ones that really 80% of a given class ought to be failed if this were politically feasible. At least though the current situation is more due to a lack of will than a lack of way to stop the cheating, so students are under some pressure to not make it too egriegious.
Nominative use is explicitly ruled out in some other jurisdictions. Do not rely upon it.
Hey, I can agree with that! I still keep an MP3/FLAC collection I've been building since 2005-ish (when I was a teen). A lot of music has come and gone, but one thing that hasn't changed is that I still use foobar2000[1] on my personal computer to access my collection. Last year, I bought a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB of RAM for cheap + an old SSD I had laying around, installed OpenMediaVault[2] on it, connected it to my router via Ethernet, and now I'm able to access my music from all of my home devices. I use RhythmBox on my Linux machines, and I'm pretty sure there's a way to interop with Plex.

I don't have the RPi connected to the internet though. I just load my phone with MP3s like the old days, and open up NewPipe[3] when I want to listen to something I don't have stored.

I also like the "forever bottle" that is common with bourbon lovers like me. You take one of your nicer bottles and when another one is close to empty you don't finish it but instead dump it into a "forever bottle" that keeps evolving with the different leftover bourbons you pour into it.
I like Apple products, but I learned not to trust them with my music a long time ago. Not because they do anything nefarious, but because their software likes to think it is smarter than me, and often these "smart" features are a little buggy. This might be a continuation of that trend.

These days 99% of my music library is FLAC (either ripped from CDs or bought from a lossless store). For use on Apple devices, I maintain an AAC version of my library that iTunes can do whatever it wants with.
An interesting book is “Chimpanzee politics”, which details the raucous power struggles and intricate social interactions within a troop of chimps. Eye opening in its complexity.

I do wonder about the social ramifications of moving them; this part in particular is key:

> Then they would face a world of strangers and uncertain social groupings—intensely stressful to old chimps with established conspecific and human families

I think on balance it’s probably misguided to move chimps like this. Better to regulate the quality of care in situ and only move them if it’s deemed to be sub-par.

If you start a chimp colony you should be on the hook for ensuring they have a good life in perpetuity, in my book. The great apes have moral value closest to humans of all the animals.
Well, we aren’t even sure that vomitoxins at dietary levels impact human health outcomes, for one. That’s not a bad place to be for a so called toxin.

It’s not even a problem for livestock until you force feed them nothing but wheat. But it turns out that’s exactly what the ag industry wants to do.
Not sure what makes a big tech company great being totally American controlled. If TikTok is managed well it could be the same with Twitter.
> BIPOC is a broad and useful term used to discuss social topics that effect that group of people

It’s broad, but not useful. “BIPOC” encompasses everyone who isn’t white. Non-whites as a group don’t have much in common. For example, when it comes to “health” or “employment.” Asians live longer than whites and have better health outcomes in many respects. Asians are wealthier and poor Asians have far more income mobility than poor whites. Asians are half as likely to be shot by police and a third as likely to be incarcerated as whites. So when people talk about “BIPOC” with respect to economic inequality or criminal justice reform, it just doesn’t make sense as applied to Asians. Even with respect to Hispanics—they live longer than whites, and have equal income mobility and incarceration rates as whites. In terms of economics and health, Hispanics have much more in common with poor white immigrants (Italians, Irish) than other other “POC.”

I get the strong sense that “BIPOC” doesn’t arise out of a practical need for a label to discuss issues common to all non-whites, but instead the political desire to draw Hispanics and Asians into civil rights issues that uniquely effect black and indigenous people. That approach is not only insensitive to the actual interests of Hispanics and Asians, but contrary to those interests because, in reality, Hispanics and Asians have much more in common economically, etc., with other groups of immigrant origin (Italians, Irish, etc.) than they do with other “people of color.”

I can guarantee you that they either currently do change your files, or did at some point in the past. My entire catalogue of music imported from physical CDs was switched to different files, with different metadata and all (overriding my manual classification), and sometimes replacing uncensored versions with radio-safe versions, etc, sometime after 2010.

This caused me to stop buying music altogether.
>Can we stop pretending this isn't about nuclear weapons research

The laser practicality issue that prevents this from directly becoming a power source would also be a major barrier to its application as a weapon. The laser fires in the UV-B (351 nm), which is scattered and attenuated by air, to say nothing of smoke or dust; it also requires incredibly high targeting precision (<2 mm target diameter) and consequently precise placement of a target weighing only milligrams. Additionally, the various optical components of the laser must be very well aligned, which is difficult to achieve in any battlefield conditions. And the whole thing is a very obvious and vulnerable target.

I ascribe a small possibility to its utility as a weapon in space, but practically zero on Earth without other major developments.

>I'm sure LLNL know the maximum theoretical fusion gain for a realistic pellet design, and it's worth nothing that that number hasn't been mentioned anywhere.

I wouldn't be so sure. Fusion is in general quantum chromodynamics, which is not so well characterized (being the subject of the famous YM mass gap conjecture). Even in this case it was stated that the yield exceeded expectations and damaged the sensors, which was probably not desired.
Vinyl isn't making a comeback because of mastering or fidelity issues. It's making a comeback because people like the ritual of putting a disc on a platter and having to focus on listening to it. It's a different form of engagement with the music than the endless, pre-curated stream of singles that are the default way of using streaming services.
Imagine one of those short films from grade school with drunk driving or drug abuse or whatever, but with a severe data loss incident. Show it off to kids nationwide, they'd take the sentiment home to their parents.

Imagine being a 40something and having your kid come home and say "Are our family photos backed up locally, redundantly on a rotating schedule with a tested disaster recovery plan?" "An untested disaster recovery plan isn't a disaster recovery plan".
I'm also not a parent or a teacher. And I try my best to not give parenting advice to actual parents.

It helps to remember that life is complicated and there are limitless factors that can contribute to a family dynamic. Growing up my parents barely knew what the internet was and just associated it with "the computer". They attuned it as a "toy" and nothing serious. This allowed me unfiltered access to anything that was on the internet at the time.

You'd hope today's parents are more knowledgeable but I bet the majority of parents are just trying to get by and aren't ramped up as to how everything works today. They may be pressured to go with the technological flow head first due to society without fully knowing or controlling everything.

Anyways, back to my point, telling someone to "go parent right", especially as a non-parent, maybe you can approach it better.
When you walk through a city pay attention to the construction. There's cranes everywhere. Roads are being dig up and patched over. Old makes way for the new. A human life is similar. It's a never ending construction project. If you think you're done building, i would argue that you're wrong. It's never too late to reinvent. And for an early 40s male it's certainly not too late to start a family.

Anything that is subjective and not discrete inevitably ends up lost in semantic arguments that achieve little.

It’s useful to have a high level archetype, but the clusters are always fuzzy and we don’t gain much by carving out new names for things along the periphery.

Identity politics get screwy due to in groups trying to maintain order and rigid rules while some are inflexible. How many times do you try to see a conversation about an idea get lost in a debate about whether the idea falls under a particular ideology rather than the merits of the idea itself? What’s socialism? What’s feminism? What’s a conservative? What’s queer?

We make up buckets and get flustered when people define buckets differently or when some examples cross the boundaries. Then some people begin to believe that the definitions hold objective authority and place great significance on minor differences. Then people who feel they don’t fit exactly a definition declare they must be something new. Then two niche subgroups fight because they share a similar space and want the other to be made illegitimate. Then another body wants to maintain unity across the broader community so they declare all things are legit. Then the community looks stupid and confusing because it’s got so many niche classifications.

Gender identity, Christianity, political ideologies, etc. take your pick. People trying to define things that are not actually discrete is just an invitation for nonsense.

It’s fine to be “like Group X but different with respect to some qualities” and not make that a whole new taxonomical sub group.
