The "one" figure ignores deaths caused by evacuation SNAFUs. But if some event causes an evacuation and the evacuation has a normal number of mishaps, then that event causes those mishaps. Evacuations are rare and happen under unusual circumstances, they will suffer from SNAFUs.

You can't cause an evacuation, expect that it'll go perfectly and deny any responsibility when it doesn't.
How can you proof that you are present after hours, if you are only remote employed? Remote work sounds thoroughly uncompatible with Japanese working culture.
I cannot understand where the boundary between some of the "common-yet-boring arguments" and "real limitations" is. E.g., the ideas that "You cannot learn anything meaningful based only on form" and "It only connects pieces its seen before according to some statistics" are "boring", but the fact that models have no knowledge of knowledge, or knowledge of time, or any understanding of how texts relate to each other is "real". These are essentially the same things! This is what people may mean when they proffer their "boring critiques", if you press them hard enough. Of course Yoav, being abrest of the field, knows all the details and can talk about the problem in more concrete terms, but "vague" and "boring" are still different things.

I also cannot fathom how models can develop a sense of time, or structured knowledge of the world consisting of discrete objects, even with a large dose of RLHF, if the internal representations are continuous, and layer normalised, and otherwise incapable of arriving at any hard-ish, logic-like rules? All these models seem have deep seated architectural limitations, and they are almost at the limit of the available training data. Being non-vague and positive-minded about this doesn't solve the issue. The models can write polite emails and funny reviews of Persian rags in haiku, but they are deeply unreasonable and 100% unreliable. There is hardly a solid business or social case for this stuff.

The easiest way to start a blog with a custom domain is through Blogger from Google. The other option is to go to Google Domains directly. After you register a domain you have options to deploy it to Blogger, Google Sites and others.

You only pay for the domain name. The hosting and traffic are free.

Blogger has been online since 1999 btw. It isn't going anywhere and I say this with confidence. My confidence comes from me personally looking for Blogger blogs and finding old ones (from 1999) that are still updated today. Google would not dare take those peoples medium, it would be an outrage. Some of them get tens of comments on each post.

There are also some huge Blogger blogs, for example like this one: https://www.surrenderat20.net/ that has thousands of comments on each post. Imagine how much traffic that blog pulls.

It is true Google has over the years stripped Blogger of some functionalities but it is still the most flexible Blogging platform. Why? Because you can add custom HTML, Javascript and CSS to each and every individual post/page or site-wide, category-wide etc (try doing that for free on wordpress dot com).

They also allow adult content if you can believe it. Their content policy is quite lax.
Why are countries coming up now? I thought you were arguing against the sharecropping analogy, and the people that do sharecropping are all low-power individuals.

"Someone rich could make a new ecosystem" is unrelated to whether the current ecosystem resembles sharecropping.

AppleTV, by dint of being a product of a hardware company that has made privacy a part of its appeal, doesn't monetize your data. I have no doubt Apple can tell what we watch, but since they're not selling the data or using it to run ads on the device it doesn't bother me.

The conflation was mostly my fault. I read "disagreeable personalities" and my head went to the Big Five.

IMO a better way to think of it is that someone needs to be a jerk to get ahead. The three things we're accusing people of in this topic (being selfish, combative, and manipulative) are the three things that all companies do all the time. We want to launder that, I think.
No, and the consequences of not doing so have led me to have a terrible life with a commute of over 2h one way, a constant state of depression and anger even after seeking help from professionals for years, and a sense of regret and lack of hope, all as the fault of my own decisions and actions.

I used this website to learn C++ a many years ago and it made it very easy! Very thankful for this resource, and others like it.
Absolutely, but it's much easier to understand arrays, strings, functions, loops and structs as high-level concepts first, and continue to manual memory management and UB only afterwards, rather than trying to do everything at the same time.

C++ is fun for sure, it was (and is) fun for me, but it's a very specific kind of fun.

I spent most of the past decade (up to about 2 years ago) upset that I wasn't more productive, and mad at myself for not having any real hobbies outside video gaming. Now I'm more successful by my past standards (learning piano, writing, producing meaningful work doing something I like). More importantly to me, I've exited the emotional state of constantly beating myself up for not doing more.
An often overlooked feature of OOP is the use of pseudo-variable 'this' (or 'self in Smalltalk).

That is about name-scope. You can refer to your own method simply by its name via 'this', and when you call it you know it can access the state inside that particular object.

Without 'this' an object in JavaScript and other OOP languages could not access its own properties including it (possibly mutable) state.

Is there an equivalent to 'this' in purely FP languages?
If your application has any reasonably complex data, validating that data when it is being added into the system (i.e. if it meets the invariants) prevents bugs later down the line. If the data is different to what the application expects, you need to spend time identifying that data, and correcting it. If the data is complex (e.g. book metadata) it can be expensive to correct.

Having up-front validation of the input (e.g. checking book subject values) prevents a whole class of errors (such as spelling errors between country names), and enforces the contract between the data and application -- the list of things validated should be based on how the application works, such as required fields/values. If there is a new value that the business need, you then know you need to make an application change in order to support that value.

Some values (like the list of countries) would be an open list, and would be best stored in the database/application as a list that can be updated outside of the code changes. Some other values (esp. those that need different code/logic to function) are closed lists that should be maintained and validated in the code (e.g. as enumeration values).

Mastodon is not the Fediverse. There is plenty of alternatives out there. What you describe sounds a lot like freedom. Instead of only one entity controlling what is said in their platform, now you have many entities, and the user can pick which community to join, based on the federation links, topics, server performance, etc... or start their own (with a single-user blogging platform like microblog.pub). There is no need for governance, if you like A, then you go to an instance with people who like A. If you are the type of person who prefer to be told what to do,then I'm sure there are also instances for that as well. And again, Mastodon is not the Fediverse.

One other thing they give you at a large organization is flexibility in your stack

If a team wants to try out a different language, or hosting model, or even just framework/tooling, those things can be really hard to do within the same codebase; much easier when your only contract is handling JSON requests. And if your whole organization is totally locked into a single stack, it's hard to keep evolving on some axes

(I'm generally against microservices, but this is one of the more compelling arguments I've heard for them, though it still wouldn't mean you need to eagerly break things up without a specific reason)
Looking at the rawest biological elements - a society without women of child bearing age having kids, won’t be a society very long (a few decades, usually).

A society without someone fighting and dying to defend it, can go until someone tries to conquer it - then it can be dead almost instantly without enough people willing to fight, kill, and die defending it.

Both of those are real problems.

Fighting doesn’t have to be 100% men. But if you draw out a population distribution of various useful attributes (mental, physical, etc.), most men are built for it, and will do it naturally and unprompted, and most women are not.

And when you look at what even modern fighting looks like, 99% of the women (and most of the men) are going to be trying to run the other direction.

And like in Ukraine, without folks standing, fighting, and dying, not only would Ukraine no longer exist, but the cancer of conquest that would eat anything and everything it can, would just get stronger. And eventually devour everything if left unchecked.

You're totally right! Just to add on for the overeating - I think it's easier to overeat in the states due to just larger portions and prevalence of processed foods which often contain sugar and fat, thus leading to higher calorie intake.

Food was very much a comfort thing so I would stress-eat during exams, stressful jobs and so forth.

The other thing I noticed is that I got less hungry(!?) when I ate less after like fasting for 2 weeks. It seems to me that eating less after getting over the initial hump was key for my weight loss.
Truth, that is what I meant. The Baltic Sea is generally not that deep was the point. It does not require advanced marine navigation or diving equipment to reach the pipeline
Some years, I'd argue you would struggle to move all of the product if it was even free. I don't think you understand just how much weed was produced in Oregon. You're speaking generally, so don't know if you're taking into consideration the specifics of the Oregon market. Total US demand has very little impact on the legal Oregon market, except to encourage more legal growers to sell part of their crop black market in other states. Oregon produced so much that even releasing the pressure valve that way didn't stop the market from cratering.

And, at the very least, the market was saturated below the break even point for production. The retail price didn't completely crater because dispensaries limited the supply based on their location, but a lot of producers could not move their product in the legal market and were left twiddling they're thumbs
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. I will openly say that I not understand it beyond knowing that, in a very general sense, it is not based on ones and zeroes. If I do not understand it, it is difficult for me to wrap my head around it and what it can and cannot do.

It might not be magic, but it might as well be ( and may end up being next hype train ).
I believe it was only earlier last year that the Diesel Brothers/Cleetus McFarland had a near-death experience with a snowmobile. Really brought awareness to how dangerous those vehicles can become.
There have been many, many past instances of automotive security issues hitting national and international news.

The automotive industry has simply been slow to adapt. Manufacturers were almost universally founded in an era when mechanical systems dominated and that's how they want to treat everything. There's been a painful and ongoing learning process for them to realize that software and computerized systems are fundamentally different from the mechanical systems they understand well.

On the inside, doing things securely takes a lot of deliberate and careful work. COTS stuff is rarely designed for high security systems. I've sat in more than one pen test where we found a wireless interface unintentionally added by some dev board that was selected for a completely different purpose. I've also seen cases where the security team/software teams were hired/onboarded after the vehicle design was essentially finalized with little consideration for their requirements.

The article I read doesn't suggest that Ukraine "caused the war" - it was written in 2021 after all, prior to the Russian invasion.

And indeed the article acknowledges that there has been conflict since 2014 including the civil war in the east.

Rather, it suggests that this development is an escalation by Ukraine that could result in a "full-scale war" or "all-out war," something that would be new. Or "war over Crimea," while until this point Ukraine had been relatively acquiescent to its annexation
> Time taken for tests has never really been something I've seen anyone care about

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_ignorance

It is an absolute quality of life issue for development. The longer tests take to run, the more loathe developers are to write and work with them. The worst is when developers start to add calls to `sleep()` in order to make async tests work properly... it just balloons out of there and becomes an extremely brittle test suite.
ChatGPT said:

> The joke in this code is that the function is called "getRandomNumber", but it always returns the number 4, which is not random at all. The comment "chosen by fair dice roll" and "guaranteed to be random" are added for humorous effect, because they suggest that the number 4 was chosen through a random process, but in reality it is hardcoded into the function. The joke is meant to be a play on the idea of "randomness", implying that the function is not actually generating a random number as it claims to do.

I disagree. The above is actually a (perhaps unwitting) story of what to avoid in ketamine treatment.

My experience is that I dislike the feeling of ketamine high, and I use a small dose fortnightly. If I go longer than that, the depression and suicidal ideation return. I use a small enough dose that I do not feel the immediate effect. It takes a day or three before I experience a reduction in depression and suicidal ideation, but after that, the part of my brain that says "kill yourself" every few minutes goes completely silent.

I also know people who seek out the k-hole and have built up ridiculous (and very expensive) tolerance to the drug. Their stories are very similar to GP. To be avoided.

Taking that a step further, I've been interested recently in the feasibility of moving entire structures/homes to new locations. There's plenty of houses in rural America that are withering away. If there was a way to economically move homes to land in urban areas, it could help to solve the problem. I'm assuming the unit economics and feasibility simply don't work out, or else my million dollar idea would've been taken already.
Would love to see a regulatory requirement for a physical off switch for vehicle network connectivity. Probably won't happen though.

If you're consuming dependencies which were never updated in the past decade then you have more worrying problems to deal with than porting your code to python3.

With slightly less cynicism, in many cases most folks outside of "the industry" will engage in the same behavior and most folks won't ever be conciously aware of this behavior.

On a whole people tend to do a good job of working together in a way that minimizes instances of anger, dislike, or irritation. Not everyone is good at it, and few people are aware of what behaviors contribute to this cohesion.

This is one of those behaviors.

You can do something similar in Python:

utf8_bytes: bytes = bytes(input_string, encoding="utf-8")

# Perform the conversion from one encoding to the other.
unicode_string: str = str(utf8_bytes, encoding="utf-8")
ascii_bytes: bytes = bytes(unicode_string, encoding="ascii")

# The conversion could also be written as:
ascii_bytes: bytes = utf8_bytes.decode("utf-8").encode("ascii")

output_string: str = str(ascii_bytes, encoding="ascii")

The biggest difference is that the conversion step requires you to explicitly decode the bytes to a unicode string and then encode the unicode string back to bytes rather than providing a convert() method that does this internally.

Perhaps a convenience method would be nice, something like this, but it somewhat obscures the intermediate decode-to-unicode step:

ascii_bytes: bytes = utf8_bytes.convert(to_encoding="ascii")

So if your kid is struggling to fit in and everyone at the school talks and interacts via social media, and your kid asks if he can talk to friends via social media your answer would be to tell your 13 year old developing human who is struggling that they are gonna be the odd one out.

This isn't the same as installing cameras on every corner because kids are getting kidnapped, this is the same thing as saying cigarettes/drugs/alcohol should be for people 18+ when they are old enough to decide for themselves, especially given all those things (and social media) has known negative impacts on developing brains.
The "data/resource" model also "hides the underlying tables". For example, `POST users/1/emails` might "create" an email, but really its triggering a API call to an external service.
