It is, relative to the 19th century. It is much easier for anyone with internet access to immerse themselves in English language media.

I know specifically that English skills are far from universal in the Portuguese speaking world. But it's way easier and more common than even 30 years ago. So are you really saying it's the same as the 1870s? Please.

Ok, we've changed the title to a different phrase the article uses. Let's discuss the content now.
The miniseries "Shogun" broke ground by not dubbing the Japanese into English. What they did was carefully craft things so you could reliably guess what they were saying.

It was a big success.
The problem appears less when creating new tables, creating tables is relatively safe. But let's say in your one table per db you keep track of a few things (columns). For example you have a column for the name of the sheet and another column for the time it was created and some other miscellaneous columns. Later on once you have a hundred users or so you get a persistent feature request: keep track of the time it was last updated. You write up a simple migration, it looks something like

ALTER TABLE your_table ADD updated_at TEXT;

This is also relatively harmless, but now you have to figure out how to run this migration across your 100 databases, and deal with the case where maybe some fail, what do you do then? Rollback everywhere? But what if some users have already have rows that use the new column? Do you delete their data? Etc. Now consider a more complicated migration, maybe it renames a column, drops a column, adds a default value, drops an index, etc. You can see where problems might come from.

That said I do really like your idea, I've gotten into sqlite a lot lately (I work on the database team at Fly.io), I'm just responding to you questions specifically about migrations.
Same.

I'm about to just buy that P515... I can't stand the indecision any longer.

Full disclosure: I worked 6 years for a private DNA analysis company. I left the company over two years ago in pursuit of challenges closer to my passions -- robotics.

> Your DNA isn't "public data".

You shed DNA every day in dead skin cells; if you're in public then it's effectively public trash and most public trash is... well... public. If you eat or drink at a restaurant then you've left your DNA on the utensils and cups.

Even beyond that: Are you sure your relatives haven't given their DNA? It is possible to reconstruct your DNA using the DNA of your relatives.

> Nobody's DNA should be harvested and given to a private corporation, no matter what the purported purpose.

This much I fully agree on. Private businesses should have no business in DNA analysis. Private businesses aren't beholden to nearly as much public scrutiny. Unfortunately, DNA analysis is (or, was when I left) a growing private business.

In most states, sure.

From what I understand, CA (for one) makes a distinction, with nonviolent offenses like solicitation and harassment not requiring registration. Rape/molestation constitute predatory behavior and require registration.

Not sure where flashing fits in or if this is even applicable.

(Ed: just saw your edit, and dug up the record myself. He's not in CA so none of this is applicable.)

Insurance companies being regulated per-state in the US doesn't mean "you only need one state to defect", it means that defection would only apply to people living in that state.

And insurance companies obviously already have your health data. You might remember before the ACA they'd drop people based on it and now they don't because they're not allowed to do that.
The last statement is correct- up until about 10 years ago, the vast majority of consent forms didn't explicitly state that the specimens could be reused for other studies later, that hadn't been consented to.

Now most consent forms explicitly call out the option of the data collector to share the data with more parties for further use beyond the scope of the original study.
Ask HN: Does dieting impact your productivity?
New year, new commitments.

I've been loosing weight successfully in the past but I have the impression it impacts my productivity and my mood: I get tired, I have low energy, even lethargic.

I want to remove the excess kgs again in next 6 months and would love to hear your hacks to dieting without loosing my positive energy.

Many thanks!
Netflix pays for content too.
Potentially both. Most compilers have vectorization optimizations if you compile for an architecture that supports it.

However, a lot of software is compiled on one machine to be run on potentially many possible architectures, so they target a very lowest common denominator arch like x86-64. This will have some SIMD instructions but (I don't think) AVX-512.

So if a developer wants to ensure those instructions are used if they're supported, they'll write two code paths. one path will explicitly call the avx512 instructions with compiler intrinsics and then the other path will just use the manual code and let the compiler decide how to turn it into x86-64 safe instructions.

Because the business can use overtime to remain flexible with labor costs.

For example; for two weeks they need 60 hours each, the next three week only 40.

It's cheaper to have one employee with overtime then hire two employees.
Don't you have to compare it against the ratio of women that studied computer science and got a degree?

It seems quite reductive to make some polarising statements based on seeing male faces in a founders directory.
Fully supportive to this move! However, I am worried if this will change the typical "all source code available to all employees" situation to limited read access to everyone.
I don't know what the general consensus is, but all I can say is that I prefer the Ford map. For one, it integrates chargers into route planning.

You used to get this stuff off of PBS.

Hey hinkley, how come you know how to fix these things? PBS. And living in a fixer-upper as a child. But mostly PBS.
I believe you. It’s a best kept secret even among Data Science folks.
Why is a market behaving in an efficient manner a weird situation to you? Lower prices for consumers and faster job completion is good for everyone. Use regulation to fix the safety issues and protect workers from exploitation.

Low barrier to entry means if prices rise, more people join the industry and drive prices down again. When overtime and overworking becomes too much, people exit or don't join and prices rise.
No. Thanks :) Anyway, looking forward to an answer!
Google clearly doesn't care about extracting maximum profit at all costs. All their products are free and their employees spend all day sliding down slides in microkitchens.

What they do have is an ad monopoly they don't seem to be able to develop into anything else, and then a lot of passion projects the founders happen to like.

The easiest way to find the owner/operator would be to carry a few cans of white spray paint in your backpack and paint the solar panels on every one that you find. Or, clean out your closet and haul your ill-fitting clothes up the hill and drape every one of the panels.

It won't take long for someone somewhere to start griping. Then you bust them and levy appropriate fines or penalties and force them to remove all of it, everywhere at their expense. Make an example out of them in the most humiliating manner legally allowed so that no one else ever thinks it will be a good idea.
To be clear discipline in the military is a couple things that are pretty good basic life skills that a lot of people at that age especially lack, i.e. go to sleep at a reasonable hour, show up to work on time, exercise daily, eat well, avoid alcohol abuse, follow through with assigned tasks. These are real challenges for people at that age and who come from many walks of life, sometimes unhealthy environments. The military immediately rewards and punishes for lack of that discipline and it’s a pretty good environment to develop young people. But absent the persistent structure the military provides won’t happen on its own.
Interestingly, in my experience the difference between company quotes and owner-operator quotes are that the companies are somehow cheaper.
I had a job like that once:

I don't get the analogy. Why is the dog supposed to be lazy? A dog turding on the street is by design. Maybe blaming the lazy dogs owner would be more appropriate.
But none of those products solve the problem of the "AI" being stupid as fuck. Because it's not AI, it's just brute forcing.

The current solution of 500b parameters or whatever is literally just a lookup table of existing data. They could replace it with an SQLite database with the same amount of data and get the same solution.

There is no thought, there is no reasoning. It can't come up with new ways of doing anything, it just regurgitates based on its pre-programmed ruleset. That's why self driving doesn't work - it doesn't know what a fucking car is. Ask it what a road is or a car and it has no idea, it just has a million miles of road in its database. Ask it how to drive on a country lane and it crashes because that's not in the database. There's nothing there.
Very cool, and thanks for taking the time, it is indeed calming to a db novice like myself. In fact, I’m using Fly right now to try out the platform in general.

While I have you, do you have any high level thoughts on reactivity within a db like sqlite? (My app needed some real-time features so I have mostly been looking at NATS.io plus websockets). Are there any real-time like features (reactivity, subscriptions, CDC, materialized views) that work well and ergonomically within that context, either today or in the future? If so it could be really, really useful for my app.

Thanks again!
By the very definition of having a clock, yes.
thanks for that! so it sounds like, if i purchase a chip that supports avx512, and run an operating system and compiler that supports avx512, i can write "plain old c code" with a minimal amount of compiler arguments and compile that code on my machine (aka not just running someone else's binary). and then the full power of avx512 is right there waiting for me? :)
We still get some very confused people come to our site every now and then :)
Wow, ok. I've been hit with this issues twice and both times, the Twilio reps failed to let me know about this. I had previously resorted to just turning off any counties. Looks like mu international app users might get functionality back.... if this feature is still live.

Can you sue? Yes. You can. You can sue for anything.

Will you gain anything? Unlikely.

Why?

Historically these sort of lawsuits require you to have material damages in order to get anything. Have you been materially damaged?
Yes. Abrams presided over the plea on Dec 19. Now Kaplan has the case.

Abrams' husband works at Davis Polk, but Davis Polk (firm w/ ~1000 attorneys) has represented FTX in the past. It's pretty typical for these sorts of conflicts to arise, and in this case it's probably best to remove any sniff of a perceived conflict by Abrams stepping aside. Nothing here is going to be controversial -- though our federal courts are currently going through serious turmoil due to events of last few years, albeit not really SDNY and the 2nd Circuit is mostly normal too.

I'm in a few different Twitter sub cultures and not a single one has had anyone leave the platform. Usage is still very high. Eventually advertisers will forget about the controversy and want back in on the action. They were previously making 5 billion in revenue annually. Even if they lose half that's still a significant amount of income. And I'm sorry but it doesn't take thousands to run it. Look at Reddit running everything with a skeleton crew.

Because it has no mechanism for creating novel ideas...

It's like saying a calculator could spontaneously derive its own proof. No it can't, because it has no ability to do that. It physically does not have a way to create new ideas. It cannot reshape its own circuitry like a brain and it does not have spontaneous thoughts.

The distribution isn’t random though. At some point people need to be honest with themselves about where they’re likely to wind up.
Life coach industry is full of scammers.
As many others have mentioned, the conditions are far more controlled and consistent for athletes. On another level we're also talking about different socioeconomic classes. For obvious reasons it's much more common for upper class people to talk and think about their longterm health and take both preventative action and spend money and time going to the doctor/PT if something is causing them even minor pain.
> But absent the persistent structure the military provides won’t happen on its own.

Hmm, but this is different from saying "the military never changes its approach to things like this, to get better results with the people it works with" which it does.

In fact in recent years all branches have advertised their desire to "adapt".

Slow process, but it's there & needs to be. Change processes to get the results you need, as returns diminish. Some destabilization required--brass will survive

I really like Prisma, and talk about it to anyone who'll listen, but it is still very new and as such I think doesn't have a lot of features figured out yet and some really surprising things do come up.

One I discovered just the other day [0] was that if you pass an undefined value into a field in a where clause of findFirst, it's treated the same as if you didn't pass anything at all.

If you do this with an id, for example, this can result in just the first record in the table being returned, because it's as though you have no where clause at all. Naturally this can lead to some surprising bugs if undefined values crop up at runtime, even potentially some really bad security bugs (imagine if this happens on the account table for instance).

I don't mean this as a criticism, I think it is just a normal part of being new and exciting software, maturing over time. But it's always a tradeoff to be aware of.

>This seems like a rather significant scheduling nightmare to me.

I look at this as Zen 5 test bed. Microsoft already said scheduler tweaks will come in Win 11 to better accommodate Zen 4 X3D, and I assume Linux kernel devs have been prepping for a bit.

I agree that Intel is already having to play with optimizing BIG.little with Alder Lake and Raptor Lake. Functionally this is kind of the same for AMD, where you want that cache hungry application all on the same core complex. Not exactly apples to apples, but it's at least still fruit.

This is a good opportunity to get a year or more of battle testing this stuff in the field to ensure its at least up to snuff, as well as plan future iterative improvements.
How can you be so capable Walter, yet so oblivious to the fact that people who make their money with their bodies end up wearing that body out well before their life is over?
You can get a million hours of playback with enough battery. Thin and light laptops with typical sub-50w/hr batteries are going to have a very hard time going over 20-25 hours.

I'm also super-skeptical of AMD's claim because their chipsets have a very long history of sucking a lot of power.
I think that's just temporary. People will forget and move on. Advertisers will want back in on the action. All he has to do is stop talking.
Good feedback! Will work on updating the website to show that. Were you wanting to just see the specific interaction of how it works?

Hi John :)
A comment here on benchmarking the M1 managed to get 360GB/sec observed out of a 400GB/sec memory system, so I'd consider that pretty good and certainly a better percentage of peak than I see out of the x86-64 systems I benchmarked.

Well the 4, 6, and 8 channel memory architectures have been dramatically slower than the Apple 800GB/sec with dramatically less memory transactions in flight (1 per channel) than Apple's 800GB/sec with 64 channels. The push for Apple like memory systems with HBM from Intel, AMD, Fujitsu and others does show that there's a need for more compute bandwidth and Fujitsu in particular has shown that a healthy CPU with a GPU like memory system can get great performance on real world codes without the hassle of rewriting for CUDA.

With all that said, yes there's a healthy demand for GPUs and codes that run best on GPUs. However I find it refreshing that at last one company is providing significantly improved memory systems in laptops and small desktops.
As anyone who has ever faced a “rewrite from scratch or refactor”-decision knows (or eventually finds out), beyond some level of system scope & complexity a rewrite from scratch is not really feasible anymore. At least not without cataclysmic disruption and/or enormous delays.

America isn’t perfect. Nothing is. But boy the stuff we take for granted and forget all about.
That is not my settlement. I do not live in the Lone Star (by average reviews out of five) state.

I'm Illinoisan, where Google illegally used facial recognition on people without their consent. And lines in a ToS about doing whatever they want with your data is not consent, especially because it isn't optional.

Note that settlements do not mean they didn't do something illegal: It means they did something illegal, but are agreeing to pay out money in exchange for not having to admit they did something illegal.

And yes, I've worked to minimize Google's access to my data since 2014. Unfortunately, they seem to like trying to get it from other sources. As mentioned in the article, they've appropriated personal medical data from hospitals without patient consent multiple times.
why would you buy a subdomain for $20/y instead of a regular domain?
How much code is compiled with `-march=native` or function multiversioning?
I would guess the percentage is relatively small, at least when it comes to distributed binaries.

Compiler autovectorizers also aren't very good at producing fast AVX512 code, so most of the benefit would probably come from using optimized libraries like Intel's MKL or simdjson.
javascript has something akin to that:

I think there's a huge opportunity here, and it has a natural growth path to language teaching for adults and eventually (as large language models improve) teaching practically anything. AI tutoring can be personalized for you but optimized in a way that education has never been before with feedback from millions of students, more experience than any human teacher could ever get. Bet I could write your pitch deck.

Looking forward to trying it out with my 4 year old!
I have been at Google 17 years.

I have seen nearly all versions of our code of conduct in existence (IE there were some prior to me joining, but they all had the "don't be evil part")

It was never removed.

That article is clickbait, and it has been called out as wrong by other articles, repeatedly.

Others have pointed this out.

This is trivial to verify by looking at web history archives, of which there are many.

The first version that appeared on abc.xyz in 2018 has don't be evil in it (https://web.archive.org/web/20181202062954/https://abc.xyz/i...). The previous versions on google.com have don't be evil in them.

Rather than accept any of this, you are simply repeating yourself again and again, and citing a debunked clickbait source.

That will not make you any righter, and it will not make your claim any truer.

You've already had one comment now flagged as dead because you won't stop.

It is not interesting or a useful contribution to comments on this story.

Can you please just grow up and move on, and or make some actually substantive comment about the article, rather than continue to derail and detract from the broader discussion?

There is a thing worth discussing here, and this is not it.
Both, surely? The hardware shouldn't give bad input, and the kernel should tolerate it if it does.

Edit: Sorry, I take it back: That data is weird, but not malformed; the hardware isn't out of line and I think the driver is fully at fault.
