skysight-inc/HackerNews huggingface dataset:
So, the issue is more subtle than that - if it was just a matter of including demographic data, there wouldn't be an issue. The problem is that the "B" column is _not_ measuring how integrated the neighborhood is- it is a transformed value whose calculation begins with data about integration levels, but the details of how and why that transformation is performed are super important. The calculation the original authors did to produce that column rests on a model about the relationship between a neighborhood's level of integration and its property values, and that model's assumptions are frankly racist and also factually incorrect (and were known to be incorrect at the time of its original publication back in the '70s). As a result, if one were to _use_ the "B" column in a model, one would be getting results that at best were wrong and useless, and at worst would make a model that literally encodes broken 70s-era ideas about how real estate and race interact in the US.

And the transformation itself is non-invertible, so it's not possible to recover the original values for about 7-8% of the rows in the dataset. The commit diff links to a thorough investigation of the data[1] in which the author takes a crack at linking up the ambiguous rows with the original 1970 Census data that supposedly went in to generating this dataset, and long story short, it looks like the original dataset's authors may have made some errors in their calculations on top of everything else.

Are you suggesting that Tate was crossing the land border out of Romania clandestinely?

I guess I need to read up on him, I thought he was a grifter and a confidence man, getting rich of his social media influence. I thought all his criminal activity was limited to white-collar crime.

UPD:
> ...Schengen... I don't think it's particularly tightly controlled.

I don't think that's right. I bet it's incredibly well controlled. That's pretty much the gateway to all other Schengen countries. There are very limited border controls within the Schengen Area, so I imagine the outer borders have to be secure.
Taxing hospital revenues aligns the tax with what you want it to reduce.

I suppose it would end up in healthcare organizations working to have care classified as non-hospital to avoid the tax.
I really don't understand this take at all. Swift has fairly standard syntax as far as modern languages go.
The emphasis on easy to clean and maintain is something that I wish houses today had. To me it seems new houses are optimized for fast and cheap construction, but as someone who actually lives in the house and wants to continue to do so for the next decade or two with minimal hassle, there are so many design problems.

Part of the problem is that like clothes, houses and exterior/interior design follow fashion trends which have nothing to do with utility and maintenance. And like the tax prep industry, there is incentive for builders/contractors to make houses fragile and hard to maintain so they always have (expensive) work to do.

The HN thing to do at this point is to believe that I, a software engineer, can do better and then fail spectacularly in doing so because building houses is different than writing code. So instead I will sit here, fume about the state of things, and throw money at problems when they arise.

These exist, but while they are first class citizens on AUR (which is really just building from source), they are mostly absent from the ubuntu repos.

> I posted links to this survey on my social media, primarily twitter and reddit, with some indirect advertising on fetlife and discord; these made up 74.4% of my results. Another 22.4% reported ‘other’ from the list of sources. The last 3.2% came from telegram, tumblr, and facebook; these categories have low enough sample that I’m not going to include them on graphs in this blog post.

So, mostly, this tells us about the compiler’s social media bubble?

Caribbean medical schools exist and the bottleneck for the number of physicians in the country comes from the lack of expansion of residency slots.
Look, Carmack is a genius in his own corner, but he is taking that quote vastly out of context. The actual linked article[1] is quite fascinating, and does point to overhead costs as being a potential bottleneck, but that specific quote is more to do with GPUs being faster than CPUs rather than anything about Python in particular.

More specifically, overhead (Python + pyTorch in this case) is often a bottleneck when tensors are quite small comparatively. It also claims that overhead largely doesn't scale with problem size, so the overhead would only matter when running very small tensor operations with pyTorch with a very tight latency requirement. This is... rare in practice, but it does happen to occur, then sure, that's a good reason to not use Python as-is!

Most of starflight's source code was posted online by one of the creators, some time in the early 2000's. Unfortunately the site was not maintained, and went down within months. A small fraction was captured on archive.org but most of it seems lost.

This was one of a growing list of times I wish I had been systematically saving things I run across online. The internet is amazingly ephemeral: don't count on anything remaining accessible in the future.
I feel that. As someone who’s going back to med school well out of undergrad, I have no doubt that even with good MCAT scores, I’m still going to need to be lucky to find the right med school who will appreciate my atypical profile. I feel like I’m competing with teenage prodigies for coveted spots.

Hmm, not sure. Wouldn't it make more sense for number of elite-tier universities to change?
When reading large projects written in C I find myself surprisingly little helped by static types. Almost everything is structs, pointer to structs, or structs with pointer to more structs.

I could imagine that if developers choose to use less complex objects and less indirection then types in such large projects would be more useful in explaining the data. It just hasn't been my experience so far.
Orbital power has the huge advantage that setting it up is essentially independent of the rest of the mission - we can set up most of the work in advance, so that part doesn't count towards a weight limit and we can abort/wait if it doesn't work. Once a secure base using orbital power is set up, then NiFe should be arranged for redundancy.

It's very close. Some of us Tamagui-ers have

Expo - Handles app routing of screens
Next.js - Handles web routing of screens (SSR Works)
React Query - Handles data fetching and hooks (Expo + Next)
(Others are using TRPC with clients in Expo and Next)
Zustand - Handles gllobal state (Expo + Next)
Tamagui - Component libary (Expo + Next)

Performance on the web with SSR rendering, React-Query pre-caching, and Next.js static builds is insanely good.

You have to bring your data fetching, and state, but `create-tamagui-app` is pretty amazing if you get stuck into it for a couple of hours.

I imagine in a few months there will be a monorepo starter with:

Expo
Next
Prisma / Supabase auth and database
Data fetching with TRPC
Tamagui Design System
Zustand client-state

Someone's probably working on it right now
The article that Snowden cited:

On the contrary, data fetching and logic/state management is usually the most reusable. In any case they are independent of Tamagui itself.

> In a bathroom you need cupboards to keep your denture glue and hair bands, and surfaces where you can put random toothbrushes and face creams, and you might even want to put a hook in the wall to hang your loofah.

Yeah, the unfortunate truth is that a lot of the ",nooks and crannies" stem from the things we put in a bathroom. A sensible "dymaxion-like" design would absolutely have to incorporate surfaces, cupboards, space for towels and ideally a window.

How well this would be reconcilable with the "easy to clean" objective is the question...
"potential"

It seems to be the primary mechanism currently. They've failed to significantly increase this funding and have earmarked a percentage of slots for foreign students.
The one thing that scares me about that sentiment, which otherwise I mostly share, is that "forever languages" tend to become kitchen sink languages. Typically to their detriment.
Trailing "and"s and "or"s looks so wrong to me; it reads so strongly like a syntax error. How about Boolean functions instead, like so:

select
a,
b,
from t
where any(
all(a.x is :x, a.y is :y,),
b.x is :x,
)

This way you get the uniformity you want from trailing commas, without the syntax looking quite so weird.

These numbers are arguably biased high from a median point of view for comparison with tech salaries due to the long training required before anyone can start making money as a doctor. Especially for the high end ones that require fellowships.

4 years of undergrad,
4 years of med school,
2-3 years of residency,
maybe a chief resident year,
2-4 years of fellowship.

So after 10-15 years of training, doctors get their first big paycheck. Meanwhile, smart high school graduates can start making tech salaries in their early 20s.

Median lifetime earnings would perhaps be a more useful metric.
Exactly. Aella's statistics can be entertaining (especially when she sources them from Twitter), but their treatment should probably end there.
There is nothing abstract about a kick however. A programming language is always an abstraction, with different languages optimizing for different things. Understanding more than one is helpful imo.

The “Bruce Lee” of programming would definitely use assembler and deeply understand computer architecture at a fundamental level. The idiom of Bruce Lee is someone who is hyper passionate about their craft.

>For example, it's kind of remarkable that pedophilia is considered worse than cannibalism, "meatslaves" and "woundfucking", both new words I learned today.

The first is considered as something very real, quite widespread, and very common danger.

The others are see as very exotic/extreme fringe. So it's not exactly considering e.g. cannibalism "less taboo", it's just that this and the others you mention seem to unreal and rare to warrant serious consideration. If there were cannibalism stories in the news with the same frequency it would be just up there with pedophilia
People seem to have very different ideas about what constitutes a minimal writing tool. For some, the important thing is that the tool excludes other distractions: perhaps it runs full screen, or on dedicated hardware. For me, it is important that the tool gets out of the way: it must not prevent me using other resources for reference; it must start up fast; it must have very little in the way of ribbons and buttons; I need to be able to compare documents on the same screen; and it must not drop non-text in to the text I am working on (so no on-screen markup). I need bullet points, italics, and red text. I need to be able to print in 18pt. Documents must be read/write viable for 30 years. I have a preference for RTF as a format.

Those are simple requirements, but I would be surprised if they match any other person directly. This is the problem with the idea of a minimal editor - people have conflicting requirements. Just consider "red text" for instance: a simple requirement, but it rules out anything based on markdown.

I suspect that the answer has to lie in using subset functionality of existing sw. Personally I use TextEdit, but not with any features which would cause it to save to RTFD.

The word "smaller" can take different meanings, depending on the context. This is implied by the content of the article.

Your proposed solution is perfectly reasonable, but it is orthogonal to the topic in the article.
Quite possibly; do you specifically mean NLP work? I'll admit, it's not something I work in myself, spaCy seems to be the go-to high-performance NLP library, and does appear to use C under the hood, but I couldn't say how it performs compared to other languages.
That is more cargo cult behavior than NIH
It'd be hard to tease out, but I suspect most of the taboo associated with liking "teens under 18" would be for adults interested in teens under 18; presumably not many would consider it taboo for a 16 year old to be interested in other 16 year olds (which would be some of that 30%).

It's a little sensational but I feel like she's pretty up front about the limitations. The problem with representativeness is admitted, not really engaged with (I'd expect a more thorough study to compare with older results with better understood biases and extrapolate from there), but it's not hidden either.

I think the main problem is actually that Aella herself is not a faceless researcher but a somewhat controversial online personality who used her own brand to find participants. So for example anyone who blocked her on twitter probably didn't have a chance at taking this, even if they are also likely to be closer to kink communities than the average twitter user who wouldn't even know of her existence.
Thank you for sharing this. As a non-engineer but a bedroom guitarist, this video was helpful for me to grasp how impressive ChatGPT is, but also helped me understand the level of human input is necessary to create a useful result. I think I counted 30+ iterations and maybe around 3 hours of time expended by the creator of the video.
I'm curious at how the questions were phrased as well. It's one thing to express interest in watching pornography with multiple people in it versus wanting to go out and participate in an orgy themselves. I don't think this quite excuses things like execution, but would change some of the other answers quite a bit.
Log4shell raised something else that isn't being discussed much: Staying up to date on latest versions of dependencies is not always a good idea.

Log4j 1.x didn't have the log4shell vulnerability. Log4j 2.x did. Those who stayed behind on 1.x never had the log4shell issue, even though the log4shell issue raised some other new vulnerability issues on the old code.

Worse yet, when that happened, the Apache project wouldn't reopen the 1.x branch to allow for fixes, necessitating a fork called reload4j. What could have been an easy version update overriding old versions became more troublesome. Now one must add exclusions for the old log4j to any dependency that has log4j 1.x transitively, and then declare the reload4j dependency to replace them. It is a very suboptimal solution which requires constant vigilance instead of a one and done fix.... all in an apparent effort to force dependency consumers to update to their new version which added major vulnerabilities.

Rarely have I encountered a bigger bunch of insufferable judgemental assholes than in the "BDSM community". They seem more interested in judging what is "true BDSM" than anything else.
