> "So... how do you handle this?"

Same as you, I don't bother. I've only been working professionally for 14 years, and have also gotten this advice fed to me from my friends, "write a blog", "contribute to open source", "portfolio portfolio portfolio". And never once have I gotten jobs based on these things, nor have I hired anyone based on these things. That's not to say they aren't valuable, but I don't think they're as valuable as lots of people say they are. Or rather the companies that hire people who care about these things / find them useful are a smaller segment than people think.

Linkedin is an interesting one. It's the only "social" account I have, and that's because, for me, it does provide actual value. I never post, but I get lots of messages from talent acquisition people and can see when former coworkers are available for new positions or have positions open at their orgs. So in that capacity it still provides value to me.

That being said, does anyone actually read company blogs? I can only remember a handful of posts over the last 10 years that actually held technical depth to be interesting. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, or maybe they're not intended for me.
I think it’s more than just language but in this case I think the relative economic history is a factor: Japan had a large modern economy so there were tons of jobs working at domestic companies building with domestic tools. Modern China’s economy & educational system developed later and a lot of high tech work was dominated by American companies. I think that meant there was a generation where an equally bright engineer in Japan could think they’d have a solid job at one of the biggest companies in the world and never need to be highly proficient in English but their Chinese counterpart would make the opposite decision.

We’re at a really interesting point where that calculation may be reversing with China being a huge domestic market with strong pressure for independence.
I think there was another reason for that

I don't agree. People were aware of all of the same problems in early 2021. Is it a surprise that the momentum behind the ecosystem eventually fled once people couldn't sell to the next bagholder as easily? No. Is it a surprise that it happened in 2022? Yes. Nothing about the industry fundamentally changed between 2020/2021 (massive explosion of interest) and 2022 (collapse). In Dec 2021 there wasn't a particularly good reason to predict that the industry would collapse in 2022 instead of any other year.
I am a "J Smith" and my employer has many of us.

Every quarter "we" (the group of specifically-first-named J-Smith's) are sent an email kindly reminding us to change our middle name in the corporate directory to "(Job Title)", to help people disambiguate us. The last time, there were three of us, so I tried to get the other "J Smith"s to change their names to "(Larry)", "(Moe)", and "(Curly)". No luck. There's a new crop of auxiliary "J Smith"s (I'm "J Smith Prime", in my mind), now, so I'm trying to work on them.

I'm not sure, I'm someone that has studied a little Buddhism, and lived in Japan, but I don't live in SV and haven't lived in Japan for almost 30 years. I am just pointing out that it is notable that Matz is probably the most well known Japanese software engineer, and he is Mormon, and wondering if that influenced his thinking. And, if "that" was because he had a very different spiritual experience in Japan. Or, perhaps, wondering more generally, if "anyone, anywhere having an non-majority spiritual experience" puts you into a mode of thinking that leads to exciting outcomes, such as inventing an amazing language like Ruby!

Coinbase may or may not be a good company. I have no idea.

What I do know is that they have a lot of things working against them:
- Money is not cheap anymoore
- Their market is collapsing.

I don't see how a company makes it through. Even if they navigate the present environment and manage to finance the company through the new few years, they may do so in to an ultimately collapsing market.

There is no reason to assume that crypto trading will exist in any meaningful way in the next few years. (It may, sure. You may believe, yes. Are there any clear indicators that it will stabilize and grow? No there are not.)

> Why would anyone use them? Are the savings that much?

It's not about money, for me at least, but the experience. Hotels are generally boring, soulless, and isolated, whereas AirBnBs tend to be more like an actual home: comfortable, with personality, located in the place you are there to visit. You generally get access to a kitchen. A hotel is more convenient if you're just crashing somewhere for a night or two, but if you are trying to visit a place, and enjoy the time you spend living there, an AirBnB is better.

See my other comment in another reply, but are you suggesting that it's better for something to keep the same name while also changing its behavior and purpose? It doesn't make any sense.
Since you know a bunch about this, I'm going to ask you a question that I was about to research: If I have a dataset in memory in Arrow, but I want to cache it to disk to read back in later, what is the most efficient way to do that at this moment in time? Is it to write to parquet and read the parquet back into memory, or is there a more efficient way to write the native Arrow format such that it can be read back in directly? I think this sounds kind of like Flight, except that my understanding is that is intended for moving the data across a network rather than temporally across a disk.
The plot of the movie is that a human wants to kill the Avatar who killed him in the first movie. Except dead-human got reanimated as an Avatar creature.

That's the first 5 minutes so it's not really a spoiler.

There are other humans, but they're just assistants to the revenge-fest.

The main driver of the plot is revenge, the 'we want resources from planet Avatar' isn't a main plot point, or at least it's not what the story is about - it's about one man/Avatar's bloodlust against another Avatar (and kill anyone who gets in the way Rambo style)

Replying to myself to point out: "fluctuations" and "stability" are not mutually exclusive. Largely stable ecosystems do see occasional volatility but remain mostly stable.

UK for example did indeed see a few weeks of high volatility, which mostly stabilised and indeed recovered in large part once the right wing nutjobs were duly defenestrated.

Just like amongst stamp collectors, a certain group will simply never sell. They'd rather never get a cent for they collectibles than sell at a price lower than what they feel would be "appropriate".

That is what I’m seeing.
You're obviously talking about supply inflation there, because price inflation (the more usual definition of inflation) measured in bitcoin has been about 250% over the last year.
It may be relevant and of interest to readers around the world to learn how we in Britain access the NHS, our envy-of-the-world National Health Service.

The main way is via your allocated General Practitioner (GP). To see a GP you need to telephone the GP's place of work, known as a surgery, and to have any chance of getting a same day appointment you need to call at 8am precisely. Don't call at 7.59 because you won't be connected, and don't leave it until 8.01 because it will be far too late. Call within the first few seconds after 8am and you'll be informed that you're in a queue, behind several dozen earlier callers.

After an hour of waiting you'll get through to a non-medical receptionist who will ask you about your symptoms, and make a judgement about whether or not you or your child is worthy of one of the few remaining appointments for that day. If you're a very pushy mother, or someone who really enjoys talking with GPs' receptionists (which most people don't) then you may have some success in this. If you're just a chilled out guy who doesn't like to fuss, you've got no chance.

You'll then be informed that to make an appointment for a later date you need to try again for a same-day appointment the next day by repeating the process above the following morning. It is not possible to arrange an appointment for any time further in the future no matter how long you are prepared to wait.

The only other means of accessing the NHS is by rocking up at the Accident and Emergency (A&E) department of your nearest large enough hospital. Unsurprisingly given the above, these are rather busy and you may be waiting for a day or so before you get seen. To avoid adding to this delay you should make you own way to A&E because ambulances routinely take several hours to reach you for the most urgent cases (heart attacks, stokes etc) or up to a few days for, say, a fallen elderly person, and on reaching the hospital you wont be able to leave the ambulance and enter the A&E department for up to another day.

However, once you're in the system and being seen by a specialist then by all accounts you do get fairly well looked after, so putting in the hours at A&E or regularly playing the GP telephone lottery may well prove worth your while if you wish to make use of our envy of the world NHS.
>>"leaves millions without insurance and since they're usually low-income and therefore cash-poor

This is still false, infact the most impacted group by medical costs is the Middle Class not the poor. People too "rich" to be on public assistance programs like Medicade but too poor to afford a medical emergency and work for employers that either do not offer insurance, or have poor coverage.

>>the words "bankruptcy can be a good thing" is going to be bouncing around my head for a while.

I have known more than a few people that have gone through bankruptcy and it was the best thing they could have ever done. One mistake people often make is waiting tooo long to declare bankruptcy. Bankrupcy is a legal tool designed to provide aid to people who find themselves in too much debt, there are all kinds of things built into that system to assit people. It really is not a punishment. For example most people do not realize that they can Keep their primary residence and primary transportation even after declared Bankrupcy. People have this vision that is you file for Bankrupcy *protection* the police are going to come take all your things and put you on the street.

>>I'm a little bit horrified thinking what kind of creative solutions these providers would come up with ...

One thing that is prevented by Regulation is Medical Coop's several have been tried but they can not navigate the regulations to make them workable. Non-profit Member owned Coops would be a great thing for medicine, just has it did for Utilities in many regions of the US.

When even companies like Walmart can not make low cost medical services work directly as a result of regulation you know there is an issue.
Something that wouldn't work is a .well-known/LICENSE as it isn't easily parse-able. Too bad because it would be an ideal solution for website owners but a terrible one for crawlers. If the well-known URI simply refered to a SPDX license[0], it could work for robots too, as a simple lookup table with the name and capabilities could be built.

However, this could be reduced to a simple format that describes what is allowed to do with the content (ditching the lookup table and allowing custom licenses), which is exactly what was proposed.

Is Australia ready to embrace a four-day work week? – UNSW Newsroom
I've experienced this periodically since my early 20's - generally in hindsight I realise it was: real life getting in the way, burnout, lack of interest (I was interested in the idea, but on some fundamental level - not the activity) - also occasionally just a feeling of Groundhog Day (ie. Some code tasks can just feel a little too familiar - even if novel, and that saps my joy)

Either way, at the time it was quite worrying - even disturbing - especially when there was work to be done, so think I can relate

Generally I was able to reverse it by working on something which really stimulated me - even hacking away on some goofy personal project after hours - and that kind of bootstrapped me back into a place where I could easily attain flow for "harder" tasks.
Can't recommend that highly enough, that and realising that I had different stimulus needs to previously - changing up my coding music, or even foregoing it and switching to mynoise.net yielded some excellent results, or reducing distractions (try periodically disabling system notifications)

That said, if you're really concerned probably see a doc just to rule out any funny business

This describes absolutely nothing to me. It just confuses and excludes me. Then if and when I understand what it means I then have constantly translate mentally between the cute-yet-infuriating names and their actual meaning in the context.
> You can't change human nature, you can only work around it

Yes you can. When a person becomes a civil engineer they are trained to change their nature so that when they design a bridge they do it in a way that meets all the standards with full documentation rather than the way they would sloppily design their dogshed at home.
> especially AMD

https://www.anandtech.com/show/17601/intel-core-i9-13900k-an...

Intel Core i9 13900K has a TDP of 125/253 (base/turbo) but draws 334W (peak). 81W or 32% over max turbo TDP, 209W or 167% over base.

AMD Ryzen 9 5950X has a TDP of 105W but draws 142W (peak). 37W or 35% over.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X has a TDP of 170W but draws 221W (peak). 51W or 30% over.

AMD Ryzen 9 7900 has a TDP of 65W but draws 90W (peak). 25W or 38% over.

So slightly higher % wise on some chips, but not outside the ballpark by any means. I don't think Intel is doing us any favors!

In both cases, I would pass a similar subjective judgment. Both pilots made a series of mistakes, but such mistakes are made every day, most often without consequence. However, both ultimately saved their plane when it mattered, thanks to exceptional flying skills. I have nothing but respect for them.

> Can these other equations be derived from the Schrödinger equation using a suitable Hamiltonian?

No, it's the other way around: given a quantum field theory, under certain conditions (the main one I'm aware of is choosing a particular frame and taking the non-relativistic limit), you can derive a Schrodinger equation.

> And do you mean that you need time to be in the Hamiltonian as an observable to satisfy Lorentz invariance?

I mean that a fully relativistically correct treatment needs to treat time and space on the same footing. In quantum field theory that is usually done by making the quantum fields local operators, i.e., a quantum field is a mapping of points in spacetime to operators. In the simplest case, a free scalar field, these are the creation and annihilation operators of an infinite set of harmonic oscillators.

If you had the prompt and the output, and you knew your work was in the training data, you _could_ retrain the whole model minus your work, and then feed the same prompt back in.

Then if the output looked nothing like your work as it did for the inclusive model, you could prove your work was influential, possibly to the point of a © claim.

Probably quite an expensive way to do it, unless it's somehow possible to reverse specific inputs from a trained model :)
> The infrastructural insurance spent to prevent lives lost in air travel appears to be much higher than lives on road travel. Could it be that the insurance is for the aircraft, not the lives?

I would be surprised if the cost of equipment and training pilots and whatelse was not factored in.

But the major driver might be that you have to pay for more expensive insurance to get regular people to strap themselves into something going many miles per hour many feet above the ground. Not because it's inherently less safe (though I would argue it is) but because the prospect is scarier!

Is the current API under test?

Your number #1 priority with any port or major refactor is getting the current implementation defined and under test, so any replacement can be tested against the same tests.

Once you've done that you should have a solid foundation and understanding of what the API actually does.

In getting it under test, you'll also build up better mental models of which parts are actually separate and easily testable and which parts aren't.

Then you can get to work replacing and testing each unit, then build them back up on the other side.
