Quite the opinion piece largely devoid of citations. A two-year trend where people who had to move to the city are moving out is totally indicative of a fall into the abyss exactly like what happened when the auto industry pulled out of Detroit.

You couldn't pay me enough to move to California, but this article is nothing but the exaggerated ramblings of someone who thinks that progressive policies will be the downfall of civilization.
This is built on the same high-roof Ford Transit frame that nearly all other class B motorhomes are. Most class C and A's have even more headroom.
> "dispositions"? Makes no sense in the context

You’re describing tenders. They’re fine for small-scale planned liquidity.

If a fund hits a risk limit, on the other hand, and must sell before the end of the year for compliance reasons, and the company is known to block transfers, the solution is a financially-engineered mechanism that throws off buyers and reduces the price. This liquidity discount gives management more control at the expense of shareholders. It’s also commonly priced into valuation expectations, at least by investors who aren’t all froth.
That was problematic too. Making such surveillance imagery even more easily obtainable is even worse, especially considering the power of gathering multiple sets of data and correlating the findings. It doesn't have to be a single photo, a stalker could purchase multiple photos of multiple locations of interest on a regular basis.

In terms of potential harm, it's like the difference between a handgun and nuclear bomb.
Assume it's a binary blob that's needed, given it mentions Vulkan so they are skipping the ROCm method too.
I see what you did there. I have this knee jerk reaction and want to input the OP’s question to ChatGPT.
Also used to work for C1.

You're right in the sense that the role was always awkwardly jammed into teams often when it didn't make sense.

Some were pretty good but most were of the certificate-chasing type that had bought into the commercialization (bastardization) of Agile.

Give C1 their due though. They dragged the entire company into AWS, mostly, which is something I don't think any other bank that's been around as long as they have has done.
Just like with electronics, it all started with individual components. It only looks so incredibly complex when all those individual units are composed into a big whole.

Underneath it there is order similar to the layering of software though.

Here are a few mechanical computing components explained, the context here was real-time in- and output to control ship guns against ground, sea or air targets, taking into account own speed, angles, angular speeds, distances and their changes, and other factors, like wind, if they could be measured.

So, the engineers coming up with the top level design probably did not think in "gears" but in higher level computing and transmission units.
Could you give some examples of a page on Wikipedia being rewritten? I’m familiar with the incident of redefining what a ‘recession’ is but I’m always curious for more examples.
I honestly expected the resolution to be better? The sample preview (https://app.skyfi.com/sample-preview) really isn't that great? Where it the idea this is 50cm resolution from?
Right, why is it I can stream Hitler's speeches as much as I want, but this one episode is apparently too dangerous?
It's a development process that will (in theory) produce a high quality implementation and suite of tests at the end.

In fact the theory is that this approach will produce a high quality design as an emergent property. This is an extraordinary theory that requires an extraordinary proof - one I haven't seen so far.
The fact that the lower end of income is bounded—while the upper end is not—is true for both groups.

Depending on what you consider "viable", there's the potential for a few hundred every couple months from archaeologists (I used to be one). Every working archaeologist needs high resolution imagery as cheaply as possible on a fairly regular basis.

While it leads to slightly more chance of traceability, I've seen one line "curl | sh" which install a tool which transmit everything you type, or just your password (when you next type it) off to a remote server, so once you've left a terminal unattended you are in trouble anyway.

I wish. It's the rational people back again, this time leaning heavily on agile to sell to the c-suite. Everything good here is common sense or stolen from elsewhere; everything else is at best absolutely terriblev and at it's worse permanently damaging
Among the general public, maybe. From my point of view Google products are at the lower end of quality and usability. The user interface of Google products is designed by people who never saw a GUI in their life. No titlebar, highjacking right click, big logos without functions, no menus, no scrollbars, error messages obstructing GUI elements without any button to close, status mesages obstricting text input fields.

"You are in power saving mode. This function might be affectd." Is it or it is not affected ? What is the result ? On a 1.8 GHz proceesor with 4 GB of RAM this is left as an exercise for the reader.

I'm willing to accept that there exists somewhere a large mass of developers that don't think about how their code will be used before writing it.

But the one thing I can't agree on is that teaching them TDD is either necessary or sufficient for them to start thinking about that. I'm pretty sure that if you can manage to write code without knowing how it will be used, you will write tests that way too. Writing a test doesn't force you to think about your API any more than writing the API.
Japan has a higher life expectancy, lower crime rate and lower rate of drug overdose death, than other advanced economies.

Having safe streets, not inundated with severely mentally ill people with severe substance abuse problems, or rampant property crime that residents often don't even report due to the police being overwhelmed and apathetic, provides for a more tranquil and enjoyable life, not reflected by wage or per capita GDP statistics.

I'm not so certain it can be considered failing in how it manages itself - at least not any more than peer states.

I've long wondered why we couldn't start collecting pure drone footage for this kind of data. Literally decentralize the collection of overhead imagery.
New York City lost 3.5% in the same time period, which is way, way more people in the absolute sense. So if SF is an abyss, then NYC must be apocalyptic right now.

Also these figures are census estimates which are not accurate down to this level of precision anyways.

The idea that it is copyright infringement if you train a neural network on copyright data means Waymo, Bing, Google are all illegal. If you include any copyrighted information in your web crawler neural network or if your training data for your autonomous software includes pictures of billboards or t-shirts or anything in the real world that is copyrighted you are a copyright infringer.
How does this article fail to mention the pandemic. That is crazy that they talk about 2019-2021 but never once address it.
I'm heavily considering a class B despite currently having an SUV plus 15' trailer combo.

The nicest part about having an integrated unit is the ability to navigate most road infrastructure and parking lots. There are a lot of places where it's either no fun or literally impossible to navigate with a trailer. For instance parking in any city-like environment. That includes dinky "cities" of 20k people.

What you are describing makes sense within Scrum, because scrum asks for commitment.

It has nothing to do with "agile" though. In fact, the agile manifesto clearly says "individuals and interactions over processes and tools". An organization that follows processes that don't make sense to its employees is not agile, despite what they claim.
How exactly is it that webpages with a couple MB of JavaScript or CSS or whatever so reliably cause our CPUs and fans to go nuts when much larger and more complex programs on our machines don't?

I just don't have a good intuition for what's happening here. In these discussions, people always talk like a webpage with 1 MB of JavaScript is a monstrosity, which, yeah, makes sense from an absolute perspective; it takes a lot of lines of source code to fill a text file up to 1 MB. But from a relative perspective, I have a bunch of programs on my machine that take up hundreds of MB of storage, and some do heavy scientific computations, but my laptop fan isn't pegged out most of the time, until I visit a page on reddit.com (so now I always make sure to use old.reddit.com instead).

I have a graduate-student understanding of computer systems, but again I just don't have a strong intuition for what's happening here. Can someone explain?
The larger the company, the less likely your performance even matters. When they are laying off entire teams and divisions based on entries tabulated in a spreadsheet, no one gives a shit that you are the one that gets called on the weekend to help troubleshoot a critical service that no one but you really understands. Your salary and benefits are just a tally in the "costs" column that has to be reduced.
Thank you for sharing this. The idea of corporations as paperclip maximizers has been floating around in my head for quite some time now and I’m glad I’m not the only one who has thought of this.

Apple allows itself to bypass the OS firewall so you will need something at the network level.
Does this allow me to use purchased images as a reference for OpenStreetMap contributions? Or even better, donate them to OpenStreetMap for other contributors to reference?

Occasionally the available imagery around important features is too outdated (e.g. completed construction of public infrastructure) and I’d love to be able to fund a prioritized update.
Huh? So if a town of 1000 loses 100% of its population, no biggie because NYC?
No, he is speculating about the people that left based on the general distribution:

Probably untrue but the general trend of Apple throwing in the towel on privacy has made me start seriously thinking about the logistics of moving away from macOS in the near future. I know it's going to be super unpleasant because I've been a 20+ year macOS snob and it's an integral part of how I get any work done. Making a reluctant change is so difficult. I almost hope Apple makes some terribly egregious changes to macOS that will make it easier for me to cut it loose and move on.

You’d need a network level firewall for that - the OS can circumvent any firewall you run on your computer. That would imply that you’re unprotected once you leave your home network. The firewall would also need to inspect all network traffic, including TLS secured connections.
I think the reason constructivism is more popular in CS than in Maths is that we have processing steps which erase differences: whenever two things that were (syntactically) different turn out, after some computation, to be (semantically) identical, Excluded Middle is lost. Maths departments tend to deal more with being than becoming, so they tend to only bother with semantic equalities, hence can (inhabit a more elegant realm and) retain it.
The person I replied to claimed people were hesitant to get the vaccine because it was promoted for children without reason. That was a lie. There was a reason, whether you believe it doesn't matter
Totally agree, I was responding to the twin assertions that gender is based in genetics and that there only being two is widely accepted.
Because the poster has an agenda and wants to blame San Francisco politics for everything. Were that San Francisco’s problems as easy as voters “voting differently” - the truth is that some of the problems San Francisco faces like homelessness and pandemic work pattern shifts are way above the pay grade of a metro mayor to combat, but they make convenient scapegoats.
It's not so hard to believe we're living in a 50%- probability world though (assuming roughly 99% chance of no nuclear strikes for each year since 1945). Just the missile crisis and the Petrov incident alone had a decent chance of swinging the other way.
The question is if it could really be demonstrated we had barely 50% chance of making it through the next 70 odd years without some sort of self-inflicted civilization-ending event based on current human behaviour patterns, would it actually be enough to force us to change those patterns?
There is also a possibility that the poster subtly willingly replaced 'anti-' with "[all that in actual evidence from this side appears is that apparently,] you don't enjoy it", and on that basis returned to (an argument about) the original point of censorship.
Our brains prioritize looking for fixes more than enjoying them. It's the same for most collections, or modding Skyrim.

I don't see the point of scrum masters personally. They create more work if anything and mostly act as a cargo cult leader.

the resolution is hard limited by satellite size, and there's no reason to aim when you can just deploy enough to cover everything.
As sibling said, copyright won't let you do that. But there is lots of imagery already available that can be used more freely [0], though usually not in high resolution - enough for some cases, not enough for others.

Amazing photos!

I had the pleasure of meeting Scott Parazynski (an incredibly impressive emergency medicine physician, astronaut, and adventurer who was the first person to summit Mt. Everest and go to space), and he said working at the McMurdo base over the winter was perhaps the hardest thing he’d done. He also said alcoholism is incredibly prevalent in polar regions during the winter.

Curious if you’ve seen the same thing?

It appears that way, but skirts around the gametic model of discerning biological sex that is the golden standard for other species, while elevating the status of chromosomal defects.

It’s a good example how selective presentation of scientific realities can be abused to mislead.

Chromosomal defects in a binary system don’t constitute a new or between-state, and it also isn’t commonly described that way: XXY (Kleinfeltner) affecting males is the mainstream position.
Oh, agreed! There's definitely a market there. A lot of my friends are archaeologists (I'm a geologist), and I've heard many stories of "if only I could get your company to sell me imagery instead of blowing me off because we can't buy enough". Similarly, my mom was a mine inspector for years (mostly open gravel pits). This sort of imagery would have saved her state department a ton in travel costs, as most of the "boots on the ground" checks were "did a ton of gravel make it into the creek downstream after that big rain". You still have to go out there for water samples/etc, but just getting up to date info on large scale runoff is huge, as you can get out there before the mine can hide the event or claim it didn't come from them.

The issue, historically, is that these cases didn't make for large enough contracts for an imaging company to work with. Would you rather chase one $2 billion contract or 1000 $1000 contracts? (No, the amounts aren't the same either -- that's the point.)

It's not that the demand isn't there, it's that most companies focus exclusively on the very large contracts, as they're more lucrative.

My team has 7 people and my company has 100.000 employees.

My budget as that single team is not 'just getting the company credit card out and paying 5k / year for some services I wanna use'.

I left for 2 reasons:

1. Their recommendations became unbearable. I love discovering music but Spotify is not the right service for that anymore. Daily playlists are just several of my favorite artists shuffled. Genre playlists are just several of my favorite artists shuffled. Track radio is just several of my favorite artists shuffled. “Best of techno” playlist? Floating Points and Four Tet - both artists I listen to a lot, but they are not techno, and are not “best techno” - a genre that spans decades.

I don’t know if they overfitted their models and at this point I don’t care.

2. I am fed up with the podcast and audio book push. Not interested in either, don’t want to see it anywhere.
Two notable exceptions:

* eAWD is a fantastic enhancement for RWD vehicles that don't handle snow well.

* Having a giant, off-grid battery. Right now, I'm limited by my battery capacity. I either need to add more batteries or install a generator.
