>So GP using involuntary unemployment numbers in support of an anti-UBI case didn't trigger your alarm

Obviously, becasue the cause is unemployment, not whether it is voluntary or not.

>but me using voluntary employment numbers to demonstrate the falsity of the original claim did?

Yes, because it is a logical error, as I explained above.

>Your "fundamental issue" lacks evidence

The evidence is that most people don't like working. I've never met anyone who went to work on a day off; I've seen countless people to get out of it.

>counter-evidence from limited trials of UBI points the other way.

They are as you say: limited. We would only see the effects after UBI becomes "a thing" that allows people to slack off, not a trial. And then children won't take eduaction seriously as there is no more carrot.

the core of TDD was to iterate by making a failing test, then making it pass

Yes and when I first heard that 15 years ago (or whenever it was) it sounded like genius and I did it on a few projects.

Its a useful crutch maybe if you're doing something very unfamiliar

But as a dogma that must always be followed? And having a test for every single 'specification' and edge case? No - screw that, you end up faffing around for ages setting up mocks and testing stuff that doesnt deserve it. And you end up with a massive library of tests that get on your nerves.

Also everything got completely bent out of shape for a few years because everything had to be injectable and testable.

Why Do A.I. Chatbots Tell Lies and Act Weird? Look in the Mirror
I’ve never seen a clear distinction between unit tests and integration tests. If you have a black box, “F”, with input/output pairs you want it to replicate, you encode these and call them “tests of ‘F’”. Why have different names for whether “F” is simple or complex?
New Expanse Series Kickstarter Breaks Record in First Week
Thank you! And when pressed, almost everyone I've spoken to that hasn't moved into management (if you ask management, you're asking for people who have largely self-selected into delusion, at least at these orgs that are struggling), has admitted their work is useless.

I met an engineer considerably more senior than myself recently, who said something along the lines of "A reckoning is coming". I think they have a lot more faith than I do in these ultra-bloated organisations trimming fat. The funny thing is, we both think that we're the people who should get trimmed, not for lack of trying, but because our best efforts have yielded nothing. I keep getting promoted, but if you look at my track record, almost everyone I've ever worked with including the super smart and diligent, are abject failures.
"If an individual told me they slept at the office to meet deadlines, I would tell them to seek treatment as that isn't normal."

This is reasonable advise if you're an average worker, who can be replaced by thousands of others, but if you're the only one being able to do the Job in your company, or even one of a hand full of people in your industry to do what you do, you need to change perspective a bit.

Almost two decades ago, before I became a PMC, I got hired as a Marketing Specialist for a Taiwanese computer components manufacturer that wanted to expand their core business into the high-end consumer segment.

When I started working there it was completely expected to show up to work two hours before you were contractual obliged and work overtime each day. Coming from a cultural background where you clock out when it's time and don't give a f*ck, I thought as well this was nuts.

But for my Taiwanese co-workers this wasn't an issue at all and they were happy, and so I adapted to their work culture, sometimes we slept in the office, showered and had breakfast there together.

It was a great time. We blew the competition completely out of the water because we simply outworked them and in return, besides getting casino money to spend on the weekends and other benefits, we each got the equivalent of a million dollars in local currency as a bonus by the end of the year and another one deposited as retainer with one of the best law firms in the country so we didn't really have to worry about anything.

My youngest brother got severely ill and needed experimental treatment. The company paid for it.
My neighbor started acting up, doing parties all night. The company took care of it.
My parents wanted to live closer to me, because my mom got sick not seeing me more than once a year. You guess it, they bought the flat next to me and had them move in for Christmas without me knowing.

That money helped me to start my own business and become independent later. My work ethics never changed. During my career I slept on floors, in bathtubs, once on a park bench, and never stopped working until the job was done.

I am sure that whoever survived at Twitter until now, is reaping these kind of benefits I know from my time grinding for a billionaire. There is nothing wrong with sleeping on the floor to meet a deadline, even regularly, if you know it's worth for whom you do it and why you do it.

If you want to build a domain-specific classifier that determines whether an image is a dog or a cat, and you have 50 labeled images of dogs and cats, it's much better to start with a large model pretrained on millions of images, and then specialize it by training on 50 images of dogs and cats.

Try to start with a NN and 50 images of dogs and cats, and it won't work very well.

Understanding and Applying Deep Learning
I have 2 cats who are deaf and scream when they are anxious. They are very sweet but I could not sleep for 2 years. It was becoming intolerable. I started them on Fluoxetine (Prozac) and the problem has been reduced by 80%, I get at least 6 hours of sleep before one of them yells, and usually 7 or 8. They are happier and so am I. There is stigma about putting pets on psychiatric drugs and some vets are hesitant but I highly recommend it.
> “collective supervisory failure,”

> “the longing for a digital national champion,”

Ultimately, you get what you incentivize.

The German tax regime is not friendly to start-ups and entrepreneurs, to put it very mildly, and infrastructure is lacking. Fertile ground it sure isn't. (There are other issues, like a digital economy that's not concentrated in one region but is diffuse around the entire nation -- and public attitudes, which are best described as being "staid," and favor employment at large existing firms or at research institutions.)

Legitimate entrepreneurs -- especially the good ones with foresight and low time preference -- will leave for greener pastures. And you can bet your last Euro that many of those who remain are grifters merely preying upon “the longing for a digital national champion.”

Amazon driver breaks down the A.I. system watching workers for safety violations
I agree they do exist, and this heuristic sounds sensible to me. It's the good old patio11 "go work in a profit center" situation, and I wish I had done so. I'd probably be grappling with a new existential concern, but that's life (I wish I had a job that didn't matter so I wouldn't have to worry about performance all day!).
The word "antiquated" comes to mind, but it's worse than that. An age-old self-created fractal hell of dumb problems created by a simplistic view of code reuse based on the simple mechanism of text inclusion that constantly restrains future evolution. It's antediluvian and just plain backwards.
They both revolve around a coherent concept of what a 'Unit' is - if you have a (shared, project-level) understanding of a Unit then a 'Unit test' is what tests it, and an 'Integration test' involves >1 Unit

from wikipedia, I learned

The city's modern name may derive from the Latin word meaning "knee", but there are other theories. It could derive from the god Janus, because Genoa, like him, has two faces: a face that looks at the sea and another turned to the mountains. Or it could come from the Latin word ianua, also related to the name of the God Janus, and meaning "door", or "passage." Besides that, it may refer to its geographical position at the centre of the Ligurian coastal arch. The Latin name, oppidum Genua, is recorded by Pliny the Elder as part of the Augustean Regio IX Liguria.
epyc has v-cache on every die on -X skus, doesn't it? it's fine

https://www.anandtech.com/show/17323/amd-releases-milan-x-cp...

> Critically, AMD has opted to equip all of their new V-cache EPYC chips with the maximum 768 MB of L3 cache, which in turn means all 8 CCDs must be present, from the top SKU (EPYC 7773X) to the bottom SKU (EPYC 7373X). Instead, AMD will be varying the number of CPU cores enabled in each CCD.

(unff 768MB of cache)

afaik AMD has said the voltage is one limit because they share a voltage rail, so, you can't go outside the operating limits of the v-cache die. But thermals are another because the cache die does limit thermal transfer out of the CCD as well. They did shave it down (to maintain package height) which helps somewhat but I think it does run at least a bit hotter due to the separation between dies. But voltage is, afaik, the primary limitation, and I've never heard of cache coherency as being the problem.

I don't think they're lying about the cache die hurting clocks, that's obviously true from 5800X vs 5800X3D and lower clocks hurts performance in some applications, so they're legitimately trying to offer the best all-around-performer they can as a general-purpose CPU. But I also think they're being very careful about how much they let Ryzen cannibalize their Epyc X3D lineup too, and doing their best to salami-slice this into multiple releases.

There's no reason they couldn't have done 5900X3D last gen, and I bet eventually we will see a dual-cache-die release too. There is (based on Epyc) pretty obviously no technical limitation here, they just don't want to sell it to you right now. You can make excuses like "oh the market just isn't there" but... I think they will do it eventually. For now they are just using it to distinguish between Ryzen and Epyc, previously it was if you wanted >8 cores, now it is 12C and 16C but only one cache die, in a gen or three they will throw in the towel and let you buy all-cache-die configs if that's what you want.

But there are so many degrees of ratcheting back cloud costs before we get back to self-hosted.

Sure, companies are probably less interested in wacky new cloud features then they were before, but that means going back to basics like EC2 and RDS, which do function like utilities, not going back to their own data centers.
I wondered if they had permission from the author's estate to make changes to the work and publish it as a new work or if the publisher somehow went rogue and did it on their own.

It all depends on the genre, although by listening and digging around using the right tools one could discover some gems that elsewhere would be buried by the mainstream top chart rubbish.

As an example, I'm deeply into progressive rock. One could think that after the 70s the genre would be completely dead, which is not true. Of course listening to TV or FM radio could only reinforce that idea, but thanks to Napster back in the day, and a simple search years ago that brought a couple really nice online radios (0,1), I discovered a number of great modern artists and bands. I passed my mid 50s and I wish I could know 1/10 of the artists I discover each year today when I was in my 20s or 30s.

It's not just me saying there was no evidence. It's the people and articles that were spreading the conspiracy theory.

"Now, we don’t have evidence that this disease originated there, but because of China’s duplicity and dishonesty from the beginning, we need to at least ask the question to see what the evidence says" - Tom Cotton

"at this point there's no reason to harbour suspicions' that the facility had anything to do with the outbreak, besides being responsible for the crucial genome sequencing that lets doctors diagnose it" (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-7922379/Chinas-la...)

"In principle, outward virus infiltration might take place either as leakage or as an indoor unnoticed infection of a person that normally went out of the concerned facility. This could have been the case with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but so far there isn’t evidence or indication for such incident." (https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/26/coronavirus...)
This is funny to me. In the old days, this was called: cost accounting to determine the profit of any particular item you sell and market analysis to see how many of which things your customers are likely to buy. Join the two results to optimize your profits. It's not rocket (/data) science.

Actually neither of these is particularly easy to do for unorganized companies.

Nuclear waste is a symptom of a bigger issue - our high energy requirements, which is directly related to our standard of living and population numbers. The US Dollar is directly dependent on our dominance as a military power and control over the energy market - oil is traded in dollars. This is why Libya was invaded, Gaddafi threatened to create his own currency. China and Russia learned from this, and as the US continues devaluing the dollar and expecting other nations to pick up the debt, they decided to detach themselves from the mess and create their own currency. After WW3, the United States will no longer be a global super power, but one of a few large players, ala England after WW2.

> Can you invoke Dilbert these days without incurring wrath of people he, apparently, offended?

Sure, you can. Just bring it up, and take the risk of people's opinions about you, just like you already do with just about any other thing.

Would you talk about how amazing shark fin soup or foie gras is? Perhaps, but then you might offend people who know and care about how those foods are made. Does that stop you from talking about it? Maybe! Or maybe not! You draw your own lines.

Honestly, it seems to me that the vast majority of people bringing this up are people who implicitly support what Scott Adams says, who are then trying to make sure that no one expresses negative opinions about their hero.

Which is not gonna happen. I like Dilbert, but Scott Adams has gone off the deep end and is saying crap that I strongly disagree with. I'm not going to run around defending him for free, and have made a choice to not read any new content by him. I might make a choice to stop reading and referring to his content in the future. The guy should think carefully before talking, just like the rest of us do.
In the case where the CLI is just using endpoints defined by a single OpenAPI spec, it could be helpful to generate code for the CLI with some minor configuration and/or mapping of commands and args to OpenAPI spec endpoints.

More broadly, an enterprise might define how CLIs are created including handling of authentication through such a specification.

> Isn’t testing the physical generation of a pdf more aligned with “integration” test not unit testing? Testing the api that makes the pdf is ok, but testing like this post suggests, with bitwise comparison is integration testing, no?

The fact that it writes the PDF out to a file potentially makes it an integration test, but the rendering aspect I don't think so. The poster is not testing the integration of the tool with ghostscript, rather ghostscript is simply used as an oracle for verifying the result. The only thing actually tested is the original a4pdf API, but some way of verifying the resulting PDF was needed, which is what ghostscript accomplishes. Effectively it's no different from a fancy assertion.
