> (3) that vaccines are still not easy.

Have some qualms with this one. Not all viruses are created equal. Mostly as a hobby, I did a lot of reading during the pandemic into the 50 years of work that has gone into trying to create vaccines for this class of virus.

I don't believe we will ever develop a satisfactory vaccine for any coronavirus. I don't know the specific biological reasons for this, but the efficacy of vaccines for these viruses are always low and short lived.
When you aren't moving you feel pressure due to you and the planet trying to free fall into each other to make a black hole, or at least pass each other in very close orbit, but being blocked by the repulsion of your electrons vs your shoes'/floor's/ground's.

When you are falling, you are feeling the air that is hitting you because it is not falling, causing the electron effect above, and your guts feel weird because your brain is noticing that nothing is pushing on them anymore.

> We think that the car due to its speed saves time. But when you are traveling by car, you not only lose the time it takes to go from A to B. You also have to work many hours to pay your car tax, insurance, maintenance and fuel.

My addendum: Also the capital cost of the car, whether it was bought outright in cash or with a loan.
That’s a meaningless distinction. Failure to meet fiduciary obligations in a way that causes provable damages to shareholders gives shareholders grounds to sue the fiduciary.

Then you reject the idea that's stated front-and-center as the starting point of their reasoning without giving it any thought. At least they listed a good reason why it might be correct.

That's hardly something that can be discussed.
It's so surprising to me that this is such a poorly supported paradigm in commodity CI systems. Caching artifacts and identifying slow stages is like... super important for scaling CI for large enough orgs. We need better tools!

Here in Switzerland I see people biking with toddlers AND heavy groceries all the time. And the landscape and weather are definitely challenging.

I volunteer on an event called the Microsoft Intern Game (a weekend long puzzlehunt for MS interns over the summer) and we were fortunate enough to get to use the LCM for one of the locations.

The puzzle (write up here, https://interngame.microsoft.com/events/2013/floppy/overview... make sure to click the solution link for notes about the happenings at LCM) actually used some of the real computers (running a simple DOS program from a floppy disc) as opposed to just emulating it on newer hardware. It was an amazing experience that you would never get at another museum.

My favorite pic had nothing to do with our puzzle at all, but was just a computer control panel with a helpful label that said “knob”.
Zope was an oddity and had already started to fade into the background 10 years ago. Bottle was eclipsed quickly by Flask. Werkzeug was more of a toolkit than a framework.

Is Tornado even a web framework?

There was some interest in the others you mention but I don't remember them ever being major contenders.

I guess my point was that it never felt like the javascript situation where there was genuine paralysis of choice on many fronts. You generally either went Django or Flask depending on your preference for "batteries included". All the other choices were pretty niche.

Javascript has stabilized a bit in the last few years but the number of choices needed to start a project are still much higher than anything I experienced in Python web dev.

Well I was there for years, and it seems Apple legal should know more about this as a concern than most, and they clearly didn't lie to us about it being a concern for _them_. (Still consistent with your point: it could be their own fear/uncertainty/doubt.)

Perhaps legal decided the fiasco wasn't worth a protracted court battle, and PR digressions, and foisted the option of re-implementing missing modernized functionality on homebrew/macports, on purpose?
At the same time, this is no reason to stop trying to make it even better, when looking at its inevitable drawbacks.

We have a databricks integration in staging right now, with plans for all the major ones. What use-cases do you have in mind for them?
I think you are just correct that customers are acting as testers. I think the issue he is having isn't on that point, where you are right.

It is well known that issues happen despite extensive vetting. The presence of vetting does not exclude the absence of issues. For example, lets say there are 1000 defects in existence and your diagnostic finds 99% of them. So it finds 990 defects. So now there are 10 defects remaining that are not found. Next you have another detector that finds all defects. How many defect does it see? 10. It is usually going to see about ten defects. Your expectation given vetting is taking place should that be you will tend to observe about ten defects in this particular situation.

So lets say you are someone who is watching that second detector. You observe that you keep seeing defects. Probably, because of selection bias on results, you observe this with an alarming 100% rate of finding defects - the few times no defects happen it doesn't get shared for much the same reason we don't pay attention to drying paint. Can you therefore claim there is no diagnostic that is detecting and removing defects?

Well, not really, because you aren't observing the defects unconditional on the process that removed them. Basically, when you observe 10 defects, that doesn't mean there weren't 990 other defects that were removed. It just means you observed 10 defects.

So the actual evidence you need to use to decide whether there is a diagnostic taking place is evidence that is more strongly conditional on whether it is taking place. You need something that can observe whether the 990 are being caught.

In this case, we have video evidence of extensive QA processes. So that is much stronger than the evidence that defects show up, because defects show up both when we do have a vetting and we don't have a vetting. And each reasonable test case ought to be decreasing the chance of a particular defect that the test case is testing for.

For a much more thorough treatment on this subject check out:

https://www.lesswrong.com/tag/bayesian-probability#:~:text=B....

So that is basically why he disagrees with you.

Tesla definitely needs to root cause the defects that were found and make improvements on the existing vetting process but it is very obvious they do have these processes.
This isn't a new idea. It's possible it was also obvious in hindsight a few decades ago when it was first proposed.
this is amazing! Tysm.
Their arguments were flawed because nobody is expected to bend over backwards to coexist with blacks, Asians, or gays.

Finally A VR headset that’s MADE FOR ME
It took me 8-10 years of programming and literally hundreds of projects before I started being happy with the end result of what I was doing. Never ashamed though, I look at my early projects like how you'd look at a child's "paintings", with this sort of feeling of innocence and naivety. It's still different, because a child's painting has no higher goal, while I was trying to build something good and just couldn't, but still there's no shame in learning so don't punish the younger you. And I do remember I was always happy doing it, even though I wasn't proud of the result back then, the challenge and the learning felt like my brain was expanding.

And talking about taste, as a frontend dev you need two: the usual actual design taste and the code organization taste. Which are more similar than dissimilar in my experience, but still two totally different beasts and I didn't even have a proper design taste and had to learn that as well. Or at least, I had to learn how to put my innate taste into practical rules to follow, things like https://lawsofux.com/ were massively useful for that.

I often wonder about this kind of solution compared with a more traditional solution of using a table of columns and constraints. There seems like there should be an obvious heuristic of when to use one or the other but it eludes me.

What about new office buildings? Could it be economically viable to include a residential option? Is there anything comparable to running a bit of extra conduit, the way some newer homes are built? PVC isn't free, of course, but maybe it's a negligible extra cost compared to the rest.
The authors assume the idea for launching an argument, but OP assumes the opposite idea. There's no point to contrasting each other because they are both unproved. At least the web page gaves some reasons why you should entertain the idea.
I've no idea for US either, but 600 USD/mo looks weird. For me here in Lithuania it was cheaper than that even while I was paying off my car. Now driving a paid-off-but-well-maintained car is more like €150/month for ~ 1k km a month with occasional maintenance, insurance and rare downtown parking. Obviously it is higher than that when including previous lease payments, but historical price is going down every month. So it could be pretty close to €240 after all, but buying a new car and then keeping it is not exactly a „used car“ budget...

„If they were honest“ is a bad argument to be honest. If everybody would change their preferences, they may have similar math to yours :)
I had the same experience. I’ve given TikTok three different tries over the same number of years and it didn’t connect with me at all.

I’ve spent several hours using it and there seems to be very little of interest to me (a 53 year old Canadian living in Texas). It did show me a video of a guy doing some great welding (stack of dimes!) and I watched the whole thing. The algorithm decided that I must want to see every welding video ever uploaded and I really don’t. One or two is enough.

I concluded that TikTok isn’t for my demographic, maybe by design.
This has been very likely for over a year now if one has payed attention to even half the major covid related research papers that have come across HN. There are still schools and employers mandating vaccination for people that have better immunities than themselves.

Speaking as someone who owns several Tiles, I don't understand Tile. Airtags are an order of magnitude more useful and only slightly more expensive. The manufacturing cost for a Tile can't be more than a couple of bucks. Not only are they trying to charge almost as much as an Airtag, they charge you a monthly fee if you want to get alerted when you lose connection with your Tile. If Tiles were ten bucks a piece I'd have them all over the place.

While I think this is a good point, a lot of the answers cannot be determined by the generator of the exception. Your SQL library cannot know what the implications of an error are -- is this a minor part of the system for which the error can be logged but mostly ignored, or is it critical? Etc.

People want error handling to vanish so that they can follow the "normal" flow, but in fact error handling is one of the critical things code does.
"ML data" could be just about anything: images, sounds, graphs, tabular data, vectors. Depending on what your data is, you might end up with very different storage solutions.

Though I think one common approach is to just dump most data in an S3-compatible datastore of your choice (there's seaweedfs or ceph, or the cloud provider of your choice). Specialized databases make a lot of sense when you need features like vector similarity search though.
TikTok is massively popular but it's not yet the case that not using it puts you in the minority, like Facebook does.
People bring up funding but Carmel high school doesn't spend more than others.

Seems in keeping with most of the vaccine policy for COVID. Don't need solid data, just say "it stops the virus spreading, trust science" then roll that back laster.

Science these days has become more political than fact based. Any questioning is stopped at the source and from scientist, medical doctor, or pundits get socially shunned.

We truly are living in Orwellian times. Journalists more or less don't bother asking big questions, too afraid to challenge the hot pick that comes down from politicians who are so openly bought by lobbyists it's quite frankly scary.

All we get in the news is political finger pointing, it's all treated like entertainment. The best I can come up with as an analogy is pro wrestling. Which isn't actual wrestling, doesn't even look like real wrestling, it's all theatre but the crowds all behave as if it's real, even though they know it's not.

America has lead here, and it seems so attractive to other leaders that the rest of the world is following suit.

Edit: Downvotes without a counter essentially harden my opinion of social shunning over evidence based science. We just can't have these discussions in the open without "you are a conspiracy theorist" and such.
This sort of thing accelerated in the 80s[0] as businesses in the 70s saught to make lobbying gains as they have seen public interest groups achieve in the 60s an 70s.

Another shift, is that it was culturally considered bad practice to become a lobbyist[1] quote:

>In 1975 the rare hiring of a former member of Congress as a lobbyist made eyebrows rise

When you combine the two, along with the ever decreasing capacity of being a congress member, lobbying effectively supplants the duty of "law making" to a large degree, and thats how we end up with bills that are almost entirely written by lobbyists in the first place. Of course, this opens up the revolving door practice by lobbyist firms to retain their advantage by hiring former congress people, which deepens the entrenched nature of the power of lobbying.

We transitioned from doing live nuclear warhead tests to testing using computer simulations. We should do the same with viruses. I'm not sure if we can simulate such complex molecules yet.
Clearing out old and stale IDs from the model is interesting. It makes sense for a platform serving a high volume of viral / short lived content. I can't imagine the same trick working at a streaming service.

Oh how different experiences are.

I have been involved in projects small and large. Worked in co-located teams and distributed (locally and globally). Some products failed, others survived.

The driving force in projects that survived was the team's sincerity, manager's determination and combined experience in the domain.

Not timezones, not manager seniority and certainly not the mean square of shouting distance between all team members.
I can completely understand how it keeps your attention longer than looking at photos of your neighbour's cat like Facebook gives you. It's just the lack of variety that makes addiction hard to fathom. Do others not get bored of seeing the same thing over and over and over?

That’s why you need to get organized, not “vote alone”.

> Our findings of substantial influence by interest groups is particularly striking because little or no previous research has been able to estimate the extent of group influence while controlling for the preferences of other key non- governmental actors. Our evidence clearly indicates that—controlling for the influence of both the average citizen and economic elites—organized interest groups have a very substantial independent impact upon public policy. Theories of interest-group pluralism gain a strong measure of empirical support.

I do not believe this is how NLRB enforcement works.

Can we please get someone official to say out loud that for most people the risk from vaccines is very low but not zero, and also the risks from covid are very low but not zero unless you’re quite old or have issues?

You get labeled as a “death shot” person for trying to say this.

The promise of the vaccines has been oversold and walked back consistently. The risks, though small, have been diminished. All for “The greater good”, but this is how you get people to not believe you.
> Is or could photosynthesis be more efficient in water because of the higher amount of CO2?

Could be - the limiting factor after CO2 access is sunlight. Microalgae have the tendency to self-shade which limits growth. Again, photosynthesis is also a very complex process and there are many pathways to increasing efficiency. Lots of work is being done on improving photon activation in microalgae, meaning fewer photons are required to trigger individual photosynthesis reactions.

> Do plants pull it out of the water directly?

yes

> I've also wondered about whatever mineralization happens in making sea shells - I understand that's another natural process that fixes CO2, is that something that could be replicated, artificially or through growing a high concentration of little shellfish?

Again possible however I believe shells are limited by the availability of calcium ions, finding an appropriate organism etc. I am sure it is possible to genetically engineer some kind of ultra fast growth oyster hybrid. The question is can it be done in reasonable time, cost of deployment etc etc
It's well known at this point.

When the model S was at its sales peak from 2013-2020, Lidar was still pretty expensive. So he put cameras in the original Teslas.

When Karpathy took over in 2018-ish, Tesla realized that all their advantages (dataset size, quality of researchers) was in the 2D realm. Waymo had been doing lidar for longer, seemed to have better 3d engineers & could keep upgrading lidar devices as they went.

Tesla's insistence on 2D cameras has to do with stubborn desperation more so than a willingness to play catch up. Elon needs 2D cameras to 'win' because even as early as 2019, he thought that it was too late to start playing catch up in 3D.
