> Yea but how useful is that if I can't control USING that information.

I have ADHD. I write down a ton of notes. I have a large, and growing, note-taking environment (Obsidian). After a while using features such as backlinks, etc, you begin to see just _how connected_ everything you know is. Interdisciplinary _is the way to work_, not in some narrow silo.

I do not have a job I care about too much right now, so I am not focused at all on my day job. But I can focus for _hours_ writing code or doing some tinkering in a lab -- the goal is to get a job where I can do either of these...but that requires graduate school.

I have "talk shop" level knowledge in what feels like 20 different domains. I tell people that I am a "jack of all trades but a master of none". A Blessing and a curse.

If the user is a capable writer who can organize their thoughts and recognize the difference between good and bad copy, they're going to get much more coherent results from tools like ChatGPT. I'd contend that an average primary/secondary-schooler is basically expected to develop those exact skills, without which their AI generated essays will have a multitude of problems just like human-composed ones do.
Sure, I get that. There are many out there that aren't, though, and I definitely encourage you to keep digging to look for clubs and groups near you that more closely align to the kind of social environment you're looking to engage in -- it's worth the effort, in my opinion. I think you'll be surprised by what you find!
Dumb yet interesting idea, but if you care your data you should put it on google especially you are abusing their service, if you do not care why you even waste your time doing all this except for fun.

Yes, that's literally what they need to do. If we want to change that, then changing their culture to value education is the only way to do it. No culture which denigrates education is going to equip the majority of its adherents for the modern world.

Edit: I feel you're saying the same thing. Said poor immigrants succeed because they value succeeding. That's culture.

I have no idea what you even mean by your comment or how it relates to the article. You just sound xenophobic for no reason.
Another mention here is Sailing Clubs. There are expensive and cheap Yacht Clubs. Many smaller clubs are entirely volunteer run. Sailing is an awesome social scene that’s surprisingly welcoming to beginners. Obviously there are the New York Yacht Club’s of the world, but also clubs like Chicago Corinthian Yacht Club which has a volunteer-run bar with prices set to just cover costs as well as catered casual food. Membership is under $1000 a year.
Both your examples are reasons for the consolidation of existing infrastructure. My point was that you couldn't break up a coal plant, but with renewables they are already broken up into small pieces. Putting the pieces together at one location instead of distributing them as they exist naturally seems like a poor design choice to me. And I wonder if it is motivated by the fear of loss of control and money more than just a poor decision?
Can you send me your resume? I'm a Data Scientist, and can ask around in my circles if there is a job opening. Can't guarantee anything though.

The author teaches entrepreneurism, among other things. Perhaps I am simply jaded, but, if this "becomes a thing" how long before VC investments become mostly robotic, with decks generated by AI, reviewed by AI, recommended by AI, etc?

I understand the importance of knowing how AI is being used in one's field, of being aware of it, knowing its limits, and, where applicable, knowing how to detect and counter it, but I'm not sure that simply considering it a tool in one's chest without first having some level of expertise in its limits is wise.

(I'm fortunate enough to work in a space where artisanal hand crafting is still the norm. The writing may be on the wall, but the wall is distant yet.)
I wonder if there are any "just hanging out" groups on Meetup.
This is great advice. I think people are reacting badly, because they are skipping over the word "competent" and attributing a lot of malice to the word "sales".

I think it says more about the disconnect between dev and sales, than the actual sins of sales people.
That's a totally fair assessment, and not everyone's into that. I am sure, though, that if you look locally, you'll find a club or group that matches your age range more closely!
Sure, but that doesn't seem to really be using Plan9, at least to me. Networked access seems so fundamental to Plan9 that running it in a sandbox seems like trying out a car with all the tires removed.

I'm interested in hearing what it's like to use it more seriously; my biggest doubts are around collaborating with people on conventional OSes.

I think it's unlikely to change as AMD's strategy is to support GPGPU pretty much only on their CDNA products. Anything Radeon gets is pretty much a happy accident at this point. Unless AMD have a total strategic rethink, Nvidia is going to clean up in GPGPU on the desktop.

Consider it from the perspective of the hiring manager who also has a
PhD. Why spend time vetting someone without a PhD when your CV inbox is
glutted with vouchsafed PhDs.

At your age, you won't get into a name PhD program. The prestige of a
FAANG skunkworks job, even if you could get it, doesn't sound worth the
six-year slog of unpaid and politically unpleasant work.
Kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared, so yes, heavier cars expend more energy in collisions, likely making the collisions more destructive.

"Being in a larger car" is basically the classic competition of armor vs projectile: the currently bigger thing has an advantage, but the opposing side of the collision quickly gets up to par and beyond, and the cycle continues.
You realize the phrase ad hominem means a personal attack, right? None of us have made a personal attack. If anything, we are attacking the distinction between one institution and another.

We're pointing out that experience provides essential knowledge that a person who hasn't had experience lacks, a simple truth of life. Reading a book about performing surgery is much different than having actually performed the surgery. And someone who has worked in academia (aka "an academic") lacks experience in industry. An academic has not been actually applying the policies in a large organization for years, and thus cannot know or predict all the ways in which the practice of applying the policy can cause problems that do not present themselves in a non-industry setting.

Again, we are not attacking a person. We are specifically saying that any person who lacks experience is not going to make as good of a solution. This is not a controversial statement.

Isn't that by "design"? Ontology of QM is an inherently philosophical topic, and is of little interest to working physicists.
Wow - I can see why Paul Graham at one point talked about how exploring an acquisition can kill a company. Even at the "preliminary diligence" stage, a small company will have invested at least a month of the founder's time AND basically given away the keys to the kingdom - all their schemas, processes, customer lists, and contracts.

I know there would be non-disclosures in place, but it's easy to imagine a company less scrupulous than Gitlab basically cratering a potential competitor without the resources to go after them in court.

Well my take is the jokes didn’t single any caste out. It was almost at a meta level against society - we literally can’t get laughs with many jokes about gender. That’s it. Is that because the jokes aren’t funny or because it victimizes one group? It is a bit murky, and the joke doesn’t peer into the waters much. This means Twitch was overreacting because it wasn’t actually targeted or offensive
In New York City all kids in the public school system qualify for free meals. No questions asked. From Pre-K to 12th grade. I believe this has been going on since 2019. During Covid, since kids could not go to school, all kids (or rather their parents) received some debit cards that could be used to buy food.
This was my experience at my last company, except compressed into 1 year.

Once I joined I learned that 30% of my time would be dedicated to hiring. The company had a pooled hiring process, and I came to hate it. I spent several hours a week reading resumes, interviewing, reading interviewers' feedback, sitting in roundtables, strategizing with recruiters, and if all that went well, pitching candidates to the hiring committee. Then I would sit back, with no control over the comp, and watch the candidate choose another team, largely because my team wasn't a "sexy" team; very critical to business, but not sexy.

In the handful of cases where my team was the only option, the candidates would turn down the offer due to "insufficient compensation". The company had a "no negotiation" stance on offers. So once the offer went out, that was that. In my first performance review my manager put "hiring" as an area of improvement. I felt this was a trap and would be used to let me go eventually, in spite of the fact my team grew from 3 to 10 engineers from internal transfers and we were hitting all our deliverables.

Between hiring and navigating the terribly siloed corporate structure to build cross-functional teams I had almost no time outside of 1:1s to spend with my own team. It was a really disappointing experience and I felt really bad when I left, because my team and stakeholders were all delightful and capable people. Like you, I felt I couldn't protect them and keep my mental health intact at the same time.
Oof, right, big miss there. Good call.

I'm only suggesting that the official story doesn't stand up to any sort of critical analysis. Yes there were many witnesses. I don't know what all of the witness accounts were and how those filtered down into the official story.

What I'm suggesting is that the official account makes no sense. Mary Lincoln Todd waits for Booth to do all of his theatrics, instead of immediately screaming "EVERYONE WITH A GUN SHOOT THAT MAN".

I am not suggesting it anything beyond that. But I am not terminally naïve.

I challenge you to look for good historical analysis of the situation. There isn't that much.

I don’t know if I agree people get that impression? If they do, as someone said above, they are willfully ignoring the truth. If someone does have that impression, I have a hard time imagining how that would continue past the first use of the tech. If you take your hands of the wheel, or the system senses you aren’t watching the road, it visually and audibly warns you to put your hands back on the wheel. If you continue to disobey, Autopilot will disengage itself. So, yeah, I can’t abdicate any Tesla driver from responsibility in an accident.
Well, true, but:
1. You might want to resize image if it's a photo
2. You might prefer a CMS to a plain code editor and then you need to use its uploader (both Forestry and NetlifyCMS aren't very seamless)
3. Try doing that on mobile

You cannot dislike an antiquated society that contributes almost nothing to society and parasitises in multiple ways, without being a racist ?

It has nothing to do with race. Roma people have continuously refused to integrate, which is perfectly fine if they don't want to, but then don't be a weight on the host society by receiving every form of financial support you can get your hands on, while being a centre for criminality, and demanding access to what a contributing member of society can access.

I have experienced roma communities first hand. They shun their own who decide to get educated. Is that the kind of societies you'd like around your kids in the 21st century ?

There must be a reason that people dislike certain societies.

This would completely kill fluid discourse. People would not want to post anything controversial since it could be tied back to them. That being said I’m illogically for it.
You also have a direct influence through voting, etc. Besides, the "players" here (content hosting platforms) don't lobby anything, you beef is with large IP holders. But that's not the point.

The legislation is bad, because it neither accounts for normal actors that generally would always follow the passive path of least resistance, nor for bad actors that would actively try to abuse the system.

This is basically being upset over the effects of a natural law. You don't blame rocket for exploding, you blame the idiots who designed it that way. And you definitely don't blame the launchpad operators for poor rocket design - that's not even their job.
I think the issue is in regards to who is in charge of the money and what are their incentives.

Overall I believe that free and good(!) basic education independent from status and location is a solution for many problems but it seems that as more capitalistic a system becomes as less incentive there is to actually educate and teach the population.
I like Mayor Sadiq Khan, he's had an extremely hostile opposing government, one that's made him beg for funding for the public transport system and one that's changed the entire Mayoral electoral system from a fair-ish one to a very unfair one, and various policing crises that get laid at his door, so nice to see him using his business tax windfall to help school kids when the government won't.

Plus a pandemic.

Further context: yes, it's the mayoral elections this year.

Even further context: while some boroughs do offer blanket free meals, most don't and during the school holidays in the pandemic, many children were going without a decent meal as the goverment voted to not provide them. My partner and many others stepped up in our borough along with the local rugby club who made the meals to deliver to children and families in need.

Tests and version control... why do you bother with all that ceremony? It seems like a lot of work that could go towards making the code better.

To play devil's advocate, though, I do think that something is lost if everyone stops themselves from asking questions on the grounds that everyone has good reasons for everything they do and therefore there's no point having thoughts about someone else's job. Even if you assume the first part, the second doesn't follow. Understanding other people's jobs helps you work better with them, and if you don't understand the purpose of something they're doing, that probably indicates an opportunity to understand them better. Second, looking at it from the other side, we all benefit from answering beginner questions. What's the difference between the innocence of a child and the innocence of somebody who has studied physics their whole life and never had to support a piece of software? When children, or physicists, ask questions that are hard for us to answer, we can learn something in the attempt.

The only difference between being posed "dumb" questions by a child and an adult from another field is if they think you're an idiot. (Honestly, that isn't even a difference. We just don't mind if children walk around thinking adults are all idiots most of the time. We expect differently from them after they grow up.)

Reading between the lines, I think some people regard the momentary joy of thinking you see something that someone else doesn't as a bit of corruption in the soul, a moral root cause. I don't think it's a bad thing, though. Imagine playing chess against someone much better than you and getting excited because you think you can take a piece and get a winning advantage. The odds are very high that you are wrong, or that you're going to take the piece and then lose anyway, but what are you going to do? You're going to take the piece, pose them the question! Or else there's no fun in playing the game. Some people would argue that the excitement that arises in your mind at that point is wrong, not just in the sense of not being supported by reason, but a morally wrong response, arrogant, disrespectful of the better player, a toxic feeling that we should strive to eliminate and certainly strive not to show to other people. But it isn't necessarily, and we don't have to take it that way.

Where it can change from innocent to annoying and even toxic, depending on how people handle it, is when the expert can't provide an answer that satisfies the innocent. At that point the innocent (or the expert) might get angry or condescending, or might simply badger the other person in a time-wasting way, insisting that the matter can't be dropped until agreement is reached. Or one or both of them might walk away thinking the other person is an idiot.

But that doesn't have to happen. They can let it go gracefully. The innocent can walk away thinking, "I don't understand their reason for doing that," the expert can walk away thinking, "I don't know how to explain it to someone with their background," and they both have food for further thought.

It seems more akin to the IAM policy simulator to me. You need to know the specific action and context to play with the policy.

In the real case I don't know what context the actions carry that I may use for filtering, I don't know the action names and I may not even know the full list of API calls the tool I use wants to make.

AWS knows (could record) all of the above for me.

Well, it's kind of explicable: It was at about that time Microsoft rolled out HTML Help, so they needed an HTML rendering engine on every PC to be able to read the documentation.

Using a web browser as your native app's rendering engine is what all the cool kids are doing these days, so in a way they were just 15 years ahead of the curve.
... have you ever broken your ankle?

Walking -- running, even -- on a broken ankle is totally normal, for like fifteen minutes or an hour. It's after the swelling sets in that you get all hobbling mclimpy.

Having broken my own ankle I could totally believe that after the initial "ow, fuck, that hurt", Booth could totally have not realized he'd busted his ankle until he tried to get off his horse and his ankle went NOPE.

We are in a bad shape generally in the UK, a lot of this country is pretty behind other g8 nations these days on quite a few key development metrics.

This is politics, so not really HN content, but it is great news and should be nation wide and more common across the globe.

Studies, including the UK government's own study (from the last government) showed that there was significant improvement in attainment for pupils from lower income backgrounds and also general health improvements. For about £400 per pupil per year you can create significant benefits for children and therefore future adults.
