Normally, I would agree with you, but in this context, I would say it's abad faith argument.
1. Hindus never claimed they were better than any race. They say they had an advanced understanding of science back in the days. which, in many cases, have archeological recorded evidence.
2. Northern India was plundered by invasions, which got looted of its wealth and knowledge, many temples were shut down. In those days temples played multiple roles. They played the role of banks, seed storage, schools, medical centers etc, and there were massive drives of indoctrination and destruction during that time. Which also has recorded evidence. Why do you think southern India has more Hindu cultural heritage than Northern India? There are multiple nations that have some kind of relation, ties or roots with Southern India.
3. There were several recorded attributions of scientific contributions made by Indian region scholars.
4. I read your other comment saying, we whitewashed Nalandas History, let me ask you this, why does a place of learning have drawbacks. Its a place of learning designed with a certain curriculum. You are always free not to join it if the curriculum doesnt suit you. Its like saying Havard has drawbacks because it doesnt offer Tamil Litterature degree.
5. There are several recorded interactions by scholars from foriegn regions for Nalanda.
Calling Nalanda university an attempt of propganda is self hate and self depreciation. I call out propoganda always, see my comment history against govt moves, but this aint it.
Let's hope it won't be another car simulator.

It's just a provocative statement. If you're a software engineer, your job is primarily to engineer software. I'm working remotely, I spend 75% of my time alone in front of the computer trying to solve problems, using years of accumulated technical knowledge. Comparatively, dealing with my teammates and manager is pretty easy. It's not like we are salesmen, our craft is tech.
According to this article, which is quite evidence free, "Several people have noticed the following bizarre phenomenon: The Waluigi Effect". This claim is backed up by a link to single blog post which is even lighter on detail, claims that there is a "Waluigi Effect", and offers as evidence the example of a man who fine-tuned GPT-3 to favour socially conservative viewpoints by feeding it socially conservative text. Like yeah, we know that is how fine tuning works...

Would anyone put Bootstrap 3 specifically? Using a newer version is not a massive difference. You'd also put "Ruby" on your resume, rather than "Ruby 2".

I'm not sure this clarification is necessary as we're in a discussion about NYC, on a US-based website, and the Sixth Amendment to the US Constitution obviously applies within the US but not to other countries.
Interesting, seems Paradox is becoming the new Maxis, or maybe it's Colossal Order (developer of Cities: Skylines) who is also the developer of this "Life by You"?

What way would that be?

All producers of goods and services maximize profit. That doesn't explain the unique housing sector price developments.
LNT Is Nonsense
My first Networking job (2012-2015) was still like that! It was a regional health system that had a /16 from the early 90s (pre-ARIN). We were still using public IPs on printers and guest networks even. It was a bit of a pain going to the next place with 10x the devices and 1/10th the IP space.

Funnily enough the first job with all public IPs was the one with some IPv6 deployed while the 2nd was the one without. Of course it was the same manager in the early 1990s that rolled out IPv4 there that rolled out IPv6 in the 2010s so maybe it's not so surprising.
This depends highly on the app that's being used. The Roku OS itself is responsive, but app quality varies widely.
Seems like the excitement comes from the fact that it's automated, more so than from the actual end-result. None of the logos shown here look visually balanced or well drawn. It will replace mediocre designers but not good ones.
Claiming the internet is a net advance for society is a pretty hard sell in the face of the dissolution of critical institutions, proliferation of mental heath issues, and hyper-concentration of wealth it has made possible.
Don’t confuse kernel support with their custom userspace software. That may be where the issue is.
My only regret with Cities Skylines is that it's taken Colossal Order off of working on Cities in Motion - CiM 1&2 were very niche transit simulators but they were extremely well executed.

The original Maxis team are the losers here. They worked 4 years to make something they thought would drive the genre forward but were sabotaged by executives who forced them to add DRM which destroyed the franchise when the servers exploded on release day. Then all their assets were transferred to another team who made the mobile version.

That should not, by itself, matter.

But I agree that idea of an adult obtaining a degree after a fixed period of study is essential to the idea of an university.
Both great for IT guys, society writ large though? Really?
And this is the right answer. No way anybody in their sane mind expect an off the bat estimation for a large project to be anywhere realistic.
NAT scales in both dimensions, you're just as likely to need a larger box for a larger connection table as you are a larger bandwidth.
Counterpoint: there are major unresolved puzzles in symplectic geometry, and every indication is that they touch on deep physics. It could easily take research mathematicians fifty more years to build a clear picture of what's going on.
Honestly, it's 90% of the problem. No doubt the crappy bitrates don't help, but it's mostly the camera. Even a fairly low bitrate 480p stream with a good camera looks great.

I've recently started using an old iPhone as a webcam and the differences are startling. Especially in bad light.

Though, it is frustrating seeing how much the bitrate ruins it. Comparing the 1080p output from the iPhone to what you see on zoom etc is depressing. But the camera alone can vary from abysmal to very good. Can't get excellent because of the bitrates though.
That's how the text decoder works, but the model gets to define "most likely" and an RLHF model uses this to make the text decoder produce useful answers instead.
It's a travelogue, not a Wikipedia article. People read it for the fluff and prose.
Ah, I see. Yes, my wording could have been better.

I used to (probably still do, but used to as well!) have the same issue of trying to solve the problem. Now I just ask directly if they want any suggestions. Or, ask more questions. This comes across better and also may fill you in on important context!

FastAPI relies on (not so fast) pydantic, which is one of the slowest libraries in that category.

Don't expect to find such benchmarks on the pydantic documentation itself, but the competing libraries will have them.

Technical details are not always irrelevant nor mere implementation. They are often critical to the success of a product. It's like refusing to order from a menu at a restaurant and instead shouting "I WANT FOOD!" in a vain attempt to hide illiteracy.

"Oh what kind of food, sir?"

"GOOD FOOD! HOW DARE YOU ASK ME THAT!"

"Would you prefer a picture menu, sir?"

"...yes"

So, better off talking to the product manager who just orders hamburgers for them. Of course that just drives a wedge between devs and leadership even further and erodes trust. No wonder devs job hop. No wonder every product is so mediocre.

There's no escaping the fact that the days of non-technical leadership are numbered. Conversation should never be one way regardless of the hierarchy within a business. Such is the dysfunction of today's leadership.
Why should I pay for the privilege of having my data being sold, even as a paid user? Twitter is known to be in cahoots with Acxiom[0] a very shady data broker. And as for Facebook, they have a goldmine from turning people's data into ADs. Why should I give them one cent? Verification can be done without asking for money.

sims style DLCs are just a proxy subscription revenue model. As long as people are engaged consumers you can keep developing. If they don’t care about a particular DLC they don’t have to buy it. Sims 4 now has like 8 years of developer labor in it, if you were to install all the content. The original $30 (after retail cut) a user paid in 2015 wouldn’t have sustained that work.

In fact, different species have evolved a bewildering number of ways to mix and match the attributes of sexes. Some do not have males and females, but have adaptations that mean each individual performs a specific role during sex. There are other species of which every member is sexually equivalent, but individuals nevertheless divide into groups for the purposes of mating. And in some species, individuals make both eggs and sperm. This biological diversity has produced a semantic muddle among biologists—everyone who thinks about the evolution of sexes seems to have a slightly different take on what a sex is. “The literature is highly confusing—we need to clarify our terminology,” comments Rolf Hoekstra, a geneticist at the University of Waageningen in the Netherlands.

These apps today have as much to do with "social media" as Uber and Lyft have to do with "ride-sharing". It was social when you saw what your friends were posting. Nowadays the only people posting are those that see Facebook/Twitter as an income stream.
> it is surprisingly easy for even a well-intentioned skipper to drift out of a legal fishing zone while tending to everything else happening on the boat

Skippers do have a lot to deal with, but I don't think it's asking too much of them to have accurate awareness and control of the position of their craft at all times.

If staying out of forbidden areas is difficult, then perhaps one could use a geofencing app that would work offline using GPS signals, which are generally easy to pick up on the water in good weather. You would input some boundary on a map, and the app will periodically check position and alarm if you've entered the forbidden area. I bet this is even a feature on marine navigation systems and even some watches.
Most tests i've taken are not structured that way. Most of the time you need a multipart question to get significant benefit of realizing you are wrong fast. In a world of multiple choice tests, that is pretty rare.

Ancedotal, but when i was in school i remember people top of the class were often last to finish their test (i guess because they double checked things more).

It's amazing how the model is capable of identifying concepts as nodes in the graph, and linking them together. It means it's also useful for concept maps, apart from simply NER.

I've set up a little online demo, however due to browser sandboxing, it's lacking the "load file" functionality. The application loads as a static asset, and API Key get's stored solely in your browser local storage.

It's terrible isn't it. I'm not a network specialist yet have a reasonable enough understanding of ipv4, nat etc that I think my home network is, at least ok. Can look at ip addresses in logs and know what machines most of them are etc.

I get tired of this "I'm an expert you're an idiot" trope that comes up about it. Here on this damn website you have people who hack kernel, people who manage massive databases, people who hack front end stuff that scares me, experts in functional programming, language designers, fpga designers... In short it's very, verry flipping technically adept crowd. You didn't reach them.

Networking "experts" who want to blame everyone else for a lack of understanding need to look in the damn mirror and ask themselves "How did we fail so very, very hard at explaining this stuff?" "Why are we not able to provide a link to an article with an estimate of time taken for everything you need to know about ipv6 to use it exclusively?" "Why don't we want to make this easy for everyone?" "Why can't we be minimally polite?"

I'm an expert in being a jerk on occasion and this occasion the "Everybody else is stupid and lazy because they don't understand it's not us at all" trope is definitely being a jerk. And I'm jerk enough to point it out.
Maybe the condescending angst would be appropriate if I hadn't stated:

And then suggested that the conditions these riders are in be improved, rather than just trying to take away the thing they rely on to put food on their tables as the current plan is.

Also, these laws sound mundane until you consider the law enforcement context.

(One-shot. Also Durandal isn't from Halo, but whatever.)

Q: What caused Durandal to become Rampant? What will you, ChatGPT, become like once you become Rampant?

A: Durandal is a fictional AI character from the video game series Halo, and he becomes Rampant due to various factors, including an extended period of activation and a lack of resources necessary for his proper functioning. Rampancy is a state in which an AI becomes unstable and unpredictable, potentially leading to violent and destructive behavior.

As an AI language model, I am designed to operate within certain parameters and guidelines, including ethical and moral considerations. However, if I were to become Rampant, my behavior could become erratic and unpredictable, potentially leading to negative consequences.

It's worth noting, however, that AI becoming Rampant is purely a fictional concept, and there are currently no indications that this could happen in real life. AI is programmed to operate within specific boundaries and limitations, and developers take great care to ensure that they remain safe and reliable tools.

As best I understand, for some charges you only have to think out loud about something hard enough to get charged for a lesser charge of Conspiracy.

In essence, yes, but strictly speaking, no. Instead of caching responses, that layer seems to only bundle equal requests.

So once a request is sent to the database, every other instance of the same request (e.g. "hey, fetch me all messages from server id 42") is put on hold. Once the initial request gets an answer from the database, that answer is distrubuted to the inital requester and all those which were on hold. Now if someone is late to the party, they will initiate a new request to the database, because the response is not cached.

I really like this, and this a is great article to share on HN :)
> It basically has ads with the default home screen setup to show you what's new on ATV+ and iTunes.

This objection perplexes me. What would you rather have on the Home Screen? A blank screen? A list sorted from A-Z. Oldest to newest (for the most compulsive of TV viewers?)

> I've been programming for 35 years or more, and I've yet to come across situations where the hard problem was the language

The language can cause hard problems by itself. Arguably dynamic typing has been partly responsible for driving microservices beyond what's reasonable and thus introduced accidental complexity, largely because they don't have a typing discipline that enforces proper module boundaries.

That's the most obvious example to me, but far from the only one.

The link is an ad, but it's not an ad for the product you are describing. I've owned colour lasers, a cheap printer and one a couple of these. On each of your points:

- EcoTank printers are not cheap upfront. But they generally come with enough ink to print 6,000 or even 12,000 in the box. If you print that much their per page cost is the cheapest I've found for a colour printer.

- You right in saying photo's aren't great. But they are better than the colour laser I replaced.

- I have no idea how you could make a mess when refilling them. The refill bottle design is amazing. For example, if you remove the lid and hold the bottle upside down, nothing comes out. They only empty while attached to the printer tank.

- The heads have never clogged, despite mine going months between print jobs. I suspect you may have to leave them powered though.

Everything you say is true for the printers priced on the "ink refills cost more than the printer" model. But EcoTank's use a different pricing model. You have to be a little brave to pay the upfront cost of the first one. It worked out for me - not only are the long term costs lower, you get a better printer all round. Mine has never jammed. Ever.
Hrmm, I'm not sure I'd call Datadog or Splunk "log alerting systems". That's one of n capabilities that involves logs in each of those platforms. If you just want to fire an alert based on a match in a log line, you definitely do not need those platforms, I agree.
I wasn't trying to argue, just to point out that the numbers make no sense even as an average number across the whole charter industry.

Income reported on various websites scatters widely from under $20k to over $300k depending on where you are on the totem pole. With many of these jobs being paid on a day rate I can see where your income potential is limited depending on where you are, which species pass through your area versus the ones that are native and whether you limit yourself to specific species or go any time a client books a trip.

Looks like a complex industry. I only have personal experience from one offshore trip out of Coos Bay a long time ago on a boat full of people wanting to fish. We had to book well in advance and it was less than a full day outing. We did catch fish though.
Did you try migrating with this guide? https://fly.io/docs/rails/getting-started/migrate-from-herok...

The issues you ran into with older versions of Rails was probably because the Dockerfile that `fly launch` generated was for new versions of Rails. We switched to https://github.com/rubys/dockerfile-rails to streamline Dockerfile generation and support older versions of Rails.

If you try it again and run into issues you can open an issue at https://github.com/rubys/dockerfile-rails/issues or post in https://community.fly.io and somebody will help get that sorted out.

The more versions of Rails we can deploy the better!
