I’ve heard it from those circles. It definitely has a dog whistle feel to it.

I agree that the poll results are wacko, but when I see nutty poll results I usually start asking questions about the poll. How was the question asked? How were respondents selected? Was there any attempt to filter for bias? Was it an online poll that a bunch of trolls decided to ballot stuff with a botnet? Online polls are trash unless great care is taken to filter results, and this takes some nontrivial infosec know how.

Also remember that everything is click bait now. Media outlets have an incentive to structure polls to get goofy results to get clicks. If the results had been reasonable we wouldn’t be talking about this.

What's problematic about this? Why is this named a "problem"?
sticking within a single capable ecosystem is optimal here-and-now but your mileage might vary as we go forward. its always hard to forecast but even if you discount alot of the ML/AI hype, its quite likely that 2-3 years from now expectations will be for much "smarter" services.

whether delivering such upgrade can be achieved with microservices and API's or whether a platform can deliver functioning "monoliths" that compete also in such a new landscape is not clear (not to me anyway)
It'd speed up and miss, but say it passes through a cloud of gas which acts as drag and slows it down a little, now it misses the body slightly less, keep this going for a few thousand years and its lost enough energy relative to the first body that it can't keep 'missing' anymore and collides/falls in.

They're essentially counteracting that relative speed over time by bleeding energy to all sorts of drag (one exotic example that comes to mind is with things like neutron stars and black holes bleeding out vast amounts of energy in gravitational waves - literal waves in space-time we can detect from billions of light years away - in the moments before they crash into each other).
Re the AppleCare+ point. If you are unlikely to break a screen more frequently than every 2 years on average, it's more economical to just not get the service. This is ignoring other benefits the AppleCare+ may provide.

At some astronomical scales numbers like this don’t matter. Sure, if you’re doing parallax calculations you need precise orbits, but most of the time you can assume π = 3.
I studied motion graphics and learning Adobe AfterEffects was predominantly left up to the students.

Nothing like fighting the software for hours the night before to animate something and, the next day, have my professor show me how it could be done in 15 minutes using a property or tool I didn't know existed.

It was not only assumed but explicitly stated that AfterEffects and, Illustrator, which is commonly used alongside, were too time consuming to teach and we would just have to dive in on our own.

In the interest of saving others from that pain:

A YouTuber (Jake in Motion) made a series of videos demonstrating every effect and tool in AfterEffects. They aren't deep but it's a fantastic resource to get you started.

I just wish this had been around when I needed it. Hats off to MIT for providing the same to others.
That happened to us, and what followed was a 8 week nightmare.

1. My son's school MS account took over his private account, only because he linked the two accounts.

2. Suddenly my son's Windows said it was un-authorized.

3. We called Microsoft, they could not fix it.

4. We called the manufacturer of the machine (they shipped Windows as OEM). They could not fix it.

5. Called MS again. They gave us a new activation code. Did not fix it.

6. Called MS again, this time they said to reinstall Windows (This is not a joke).

7. Upon re-installing, Windows would not activate. No error message, no nothing it would just hang in the activation loop.

8. Called MS. They had no clue. Claimed H/W issues.

9. Called manufacturer again. Also claimed H/W issues. I said that I can access the internet from the machine while it was hanging in activation, so network was not the problem.

10. Manufacturer sent someone out (I had bought warranty). He switched the SSD with a new version of Windows... The did exactly what I did. Same problem, would not activate.

11. Some back and forth with MS and the manufacturer involving many reboot and (I kid you not) turning off all wireless routers... MS still would not activate. Manufacturer (and MS) did not believe me. So they sent someone again. Did the same thing, again. Did not work.

12. Manufacturer said I needed to send in the machine. So I did. I included a note about what the problem and to please not just re-install Windows, because the activation was the problem.

13. Got the machine back... They had just re-installed Windows. Would not activate.

14. Started to get upset. After some pressing manufacturer agreed to send a new machine.

15. First they sent someone out again. Did the same thing again. Forced me, again, to turn all wireless routers off, so that (he claimed) Windows would activate without network. Again... Did not work. Activation just hung.

16. Eight weeks into this we ended up getting a new machine (yes, not kidding) from the manufacturer and now the same version of Windows (from the same memory stick) on the same hardware, same drivers, all the same, would happily register.

I cannot even begin to express how annoying and useless this was. And MS and manufacturer were helpless and useless.

Personally I have stopped use Windows over 2 decades ago - only using Linux, but my son wanted a gaming machine, and so I relented. :)
The problem isn't the idea. The problem is that "it's ok to be white" is a known racist slogan.
> Only one of them is asserting truth.

Have any of these companies actually asserted any truth around these models?

I mean, the model itself asserts a bunch of truth, but I have a lot of books that confidently assert truths that are completely wrong (fiction), and it hasn't caused many problems.

This seems more like it depends very much on how the product is framed. If these companies are claiming that the models are completely accurate, they should definitely be hit for some kind of fraud, but I haven't actually seen that. The closest I've seen is companies claiming that they could be useful (and based on comments here, I think that's quite justified).
Yeah, I ended up abandoning veganism, because I no longer felt (and feel) the empathy that I did back in the day (if there's much left). Being able to experience the world through the lenses of someone with low empathy makes you a little sympathetic (heh) to those that are born like that. Basically my decisions are purely rational as of today. I'm lucky to not be impulsive at all; if I were, I would have fewer friends than I do.

I briefly answered the dietary changes in another comment.
Didn't realize Raptors were capable of FTL!
Especially for people who are very obese :)

For comparison, I recently went from 132kg (290lbs) to 111kg (245lbs) in the last 5 months without counting calories, on a very-low-protein, ultra-high-fat diet.

Re. the abs, I've never had them but my impression is they're hidden by basically the last 5lbs of fat you'll lose. So nothing and then they're suddenly there makes sense. Congrats!
I think it's an accurate summary.

The separatists are under Russian control. The Russian army has been fighting alongside them since 2014, when they invaded Donbas.

In the 1991 referendum, voters in Dontesk and Luhansk overwhelmingly voted against being part of Russia. Per your source, in the Ukrainian-controlled part of Donbas, 75% want to be part of Ukraine. In the Russian-controlled part of Donbas, 57% want to be part of Russia.

First point, why such stark difference? I think it's because Russia is very good at propaganda and they exercise it heavily in areas under their control.

Second point, this changes absolutely nothing about my claim that what Russia did and is doing is completely immoral, pure evil. They don't care about the people in the separatist republics, that's just a marketing spin that almost everyone can see through. It's about imperialism, revenge, power. Putin has been planing to absorb at least Belarus and Ukraine since a very long time.

After all, Russia invaded the non-Russian controlled parts of Ukraine, which, per your source, are heavily against joining Russia.

Even if some parts of Ukraine wanted to join Russia, it wouldn't give Russia the right to annex the territory.

I'm curious why you have this view, what's your background - nationality, ethnicity, feelings about the West? (I'm from the Czech Republic.)

Oh cool story!

Same guy posted a nasty review on my profile (like as if he was a client) after I refused to install the tracking software which was only mentioned in the on-boarding document and never during the interview process.

I only learned about it a few years later when I wanted to use my profile and realized it had a negative review. I couldn’t remember at all even doing any jobs.

I emailed support and they accidentally spilled the beans. They said “do you remember working with so and so.” I couldn’t even remember. Google the name. Oh, it’s CEO/CTO of upwork. Great!

This was circa 2011 I’d guess, just when they were rebranding from oDesk to Upwork and rewriting lots of Perl, which I was big into back then.
It absolutely will. I've tried it myself and stayed stable around 1,000kcal/day for 2 months straight.
You're right that kids can't make decisions yet. However, they should be taught to, and in order to learn something, you should be able to attempt it, even if you fail.
Do you recognize "self-promotion" as a kind of behavior people do, that makes their recommendations less reliable for you than recommendations from uninterested people? Virtue signalling is another kind of motivated speech where the speaker may be sincere but doesn't acknowledge their own self-interest. They gain status from professing to believe more extreme forms of socially approved views.

The benign form of virtue signalling is something like publicly mourning for a while after your spouse dies so other people understand you aren't a sociopath. The runaway form of it is jumping on your spouse's funeral pyre because it shows you are more devoted than anyone else. Or in this case burning up your company's profits on unnecessary taxpaying to show you are wealthy/socialist enough to do that.

Your microbiome takes time to adapt to what you're eating and if you drastically increased fiber suddenly, it was likely not prepared for it. It could also have had a weak ability to deal with certain types of fiber. Often it's oligosaccharides (beans). The FODMAP process helps you figure out which fiber your gut may be sensitive to and then you can start low and gradually increase it over time.

I have considered migrating my sites from WP, but they aren’t really central enough to my work, to justify the effort.

WP lets me keep a fairly “hands off” approach, while also giving me a great deal of control over things like formatting.

But the new MD-based static site generators are pretty cool, and I may get around to it.
I believe it’s that Bloom’s study implies that 1-on-1 pacing and teaching produces the best learning results, but that Bloom thought it was infeasible to scale to everyone: it’s “too costly for most societies to bear on a large scale”

That personal tutoring leads to better outcomes is not the problem. That will obviously be the case.

The problem is how to bridge the gap in a way more people realize similar benefits.
It's only an issue if you ignore the context and origination of the phrase. If you read it literally then sure, it seems like an innocuous phrase. The alt-right folks are counting on people to naively interpret the phrase literally.
The thing I really cared about was being able to swap the battery. So I got a Neffos C5 many years ago. When time came to swap the battery, I could only find crappy ones (probably used) from China.

So, while I see this as positive, I'll just wait a few years before I praise anybody.
And it's crucial to understand we're well past the point where any one (or likely even a small team) knows all the places that Microsoft auth is entangled with. Thus unknown, undesirable interactions occur just because it's too big for someone to know that the interaction would occur.
The idea is to store all matrix weights for neural model in log space, and never leave it. Maybe create a new activation function which doesn't leave log space.

You can check the code, I don't just replace multiplication, I perform addition (with tricks) in log space
Fawning over Apple products is inescapable here. Anything with a CPU must be compared to overly magical interpretations of an M1's capabilities.
Plenty of models that can work with all frequencies, so I am not sure if that's enough of a justification.

Anyway, your point reminds me that the my "dream smartphone" would be one with no cellular connectivity at all. I'm still waiting for some company to start producing a keychain-sized 4G (or 5G) hotspot with an eSIM, which (I hope) would lead to more people asking for the return of the iPod Touch and for something equivalent in the Android/Mobile Linux/Windows world.

The following isn't aimed at you in particular, but in HN threads about the Missing Semester there will always be someone who earnestly repeats this stinking turd of a Dijkstra quote, so I'll put my rant here:

Dijkstra was full of it. He wanted CS to be just a branch of abstract mathematics but that's never been the case. That's a retconning of history by people with math envy. Before Alan Turing had ever heard of the Entscheidungsproblem, he had already built simple mechanical computers with his bare hands.

It's cousin to a stupid mindset you see in software engineering, that you can somehow be a good engineer while not knowing what your hardware is actually doing. That's how you get complicated architecture-astronaut systems with good theoretical big-O characteristics, that get crushed by a simple for loop written by the guy who ran a profiler and knows what a cache line is. We live in a world made of atoms, not lemmas.

Research fields go rotten when they don't come into contact with reality enough: quantum computing, string theory, etc.

And as for astronomy: knowing how telescopes are constructed, how they work, their optical characteristics, limitations, failure modes, all of that is essential to observational astronomy. And if you study astronomy, you sure as fuck are taught how to use a telescope!!!

Astronomy as we know it didn't exist until we had good telescopes. Cosmological theories have risen and fallen on the advances in optical theory and engineering. Astronomy is very much about telescopes.

What other field is so ashamed of its own tools? Like, art isn't about pencils, but art students are taught how to hold a pencil! Stop repeating this thought-terminating cliche.
In the taxonomy of consumer/industrial waste, that's "reuse" instead of "recycling."

But that's not really the issue at stake (reuse is good!). The issue is that Dow is lying, at the bare minimum, about their ability to enact a particular recycling program.
Got so excited when I saw this as I was recently trying to design a simple optics setup for focusing an infared light source into a collimated beam.

Unfortunately the components seem very limited and there's no option to create your own custom ones by inputting surface, refractive and reflective characteristics and geometry.
That just refers to the security updates that require a full firmware update. I think people get focussed on that because they’re used to the iPhone where that’s only way to fix security issues. On android, the majority of security issues are patched immediately and silently through the play store, so that continues pretty much for the life of the phone.

In other words, updates are much less important on android than they are on the iPhone.

> It runs Android 12 and will be supported for three years of monthly security updates and two major Android version upgrades.

They couldn't get Android 13 in time? Seeing as it's already a major version behind, and 14 will be released in August 2023, you're really only getting another six months of software support (plus security fixes).

I'm not an Android dev but my understanding is that a lot of work has been put into making Android easier to upgrade major versions (eg, core functionality being split out into separate services). It doesn't look like that is translating into longer upgrade support, which is a shame. But I suppose that's why we're getting 5 years of security updates? (which is probably most important)
So I'm quite uninformed on the topic, but why can't modern path tracing raytracers do this? They don't help with calculating positions, though, but might they still be suitable for checking the results?

Note this isn't limited to job hopping. If you saw the red hot job market and asked for a raise, that's arguably the same.

>But that's besides the point, because individuals are simply not in the same power bracket as powerful corporations that dominate whole markets, particularly when corporations have a proven track record of behaving unethically.

What are you trying to say here? That corporations are unethical and as a result shouldn't be conferred the right to raise prices? Or that price rises in absence of increased costs doesn't count as price gouging, unless you also have "power"?
They're comparing them because software support shouldn't be a problem, regardless of market segment. You can run fully up to date linux on 15 year old computers, but in moving to phones, they destroyed what we took for granted. This is a manufactured problem, and it's no coincidence that it lines the pockets of smartphone makers.

Our startup started working on solving this problem with extremely customized continuous AI Tutoring last year. In his research paper, Bloom says that private tutoring is the most effective learning method, but similar results can be obtained through a combination of scientific learning methods. However, in his time, these methods were too computationally expensive for teachers to implement.

Now, we have the technology (LLMs) for everyone to have an accelerated contextual learning experience. We started by tracking mastery learning with graphs, but the effort required was too much for users. Now, we're augmenting the previous system with ML to automatically track and explain new concepts. In the far future, I'm hoping we'll be able to accelerate learning rates by 150%, so that motivated highschool students can graduate with a bachelor's degree.

Our first AI Tutor should be out by April.
