You would see fluctuating voltage depending on load. Normally you should only see local load variations of maybe a volt or three (unless you're doing something with long extension cords and like living a bit dangerously). A loose/lost neutral situation can see voltage fluctuate 10s of volts. I think technically the range would be from 60V->180V, but, don't quote me on that and I'm not sure this meter can see that wide of a range.
Yes, that's possible. The keyboard routine runs in the raster interrupt, which you can replace or turn off entirely.

Hi, I'm Theo.
I'm currently finishing up my Master's in CS at the University of Cambridge, with a focus on geometrically-inspired approaches to ML.I'm looking for ML Engineer/Dat Scientist jobs in NYC (where I lived and worked prior to my degree), but am open to remote jobs in the US generally (and am a US citizen so no visa requirements). Open to almost any industry, my number one criteria is working on interesting analytical and engineering problems!
My previous experience was as a data scientist at a hedge fund, working on leveraging alternative data to analyze private investment opportunities. I'm comfortable getting my hands dirty with messy datasets, building my own ETL pipelines, and working on challenging, ill-defined analytical problems that require creative solutions.
Technology-wise I'm best in python, including the usual DS stack (pandas/sklearn etc.), and am experienced with DL libraries (mainly PyTorch, some JAX/TF), and probabilistic programming/bayesian statistics libraries (PyMC3, BoTorch).
Hmm ok. Do you have sources for that? Their is a certain amount of energy that is needed to process the crop to diesel and also for production. But is it that bad? Even if those energys are provided by biodiesel and renewables?
Engineering’s Role in Mergers and Acquisitions
> The main thing, in my experience, is to never have to go back and change stuff that has already been done. I may do new stuff, in the future, that breaks the API, but I should always honor The Old Ways.

I just realized that sentence doesn't make sense.

I meant that people will build on an API, and make assumptions to "fill in the gaps."

As long as there's nothing in the current API that "codifies" these assumptions, I consider it OK, to add stuff that breaks the assumptions, but I won't go and make changes to stuff I've codified.

An example is some work I was doing, with an Apple UIKit API. I was calling a set of functions in a particular order. Apple released a system update that reset one of the settings, so I needed to move the call that affected that setting, to the end of the chain. They never specified the order (nor did they do so, after that, even though they probably should have), so I had no room to complain.

In addition to the other comments, the errors you noted is a signal that the author didn’t have editors/peers who cared enough to spot basic mistakes.
(OP here) This started as a HN comment which turned into a tweetstorm which turned into this blog post. Happy to discuss further. Tons of stuff didn't fit, such as discussion of discrete/continuous mental models, how to convert between discrete/continuous stages and the relation to derivatives/integrals in Calculus, how to have pipelines of interleaved discrete/continuous stages and how to deal with backpressure semantics at the boundaries.
They're not a random 3rd uninvolved party "walking down the street"; they're directly involved in delivering the goods. They're also not being "retaliated" against; they're simply asked to stop assisting in providing the service to the (allegedly) illegal site. No one is being "bullied"; is the postal service being "bullied" when they're told to stop delivering meth over the post, or illegal firearms, or child pornography?
I think they raise children who are more effectively socialized and protected more so than more capable. I've known very capable people who don't have the status to refuse to kiss rings and they always get screwed in public schools.

The kids with sufficiently "decent" parents get handled with kid gloves and rule adherence, everyone else gets punched down with half-assery even when if they're experiencing injustice and unfairness.

Have known so many bright kids who get nowhere because of schools.
I don't know what's going on, but I'm 1000% here for this Fight Club/Pinky and the Brain crossover. If it's your first time, narf!
If you want anyone to listen to you then try talking like a normal person instead of an unhinged preacher.
That is not how it works in the real world. Affluent parents go doctor shopping to get learning disability diagnoses for their children. This has been going on for decades (I saw it with some of my classmates when I was in school) and the friendly doctors are well known in those circles.

I am not claiming that learning disabilities aren't real or that students who legitimately have those conditions don't deserve some accommodations. But the reality is that the current system is totally broken and discriminatory.
This of course isn't accurate. The original study had a few assumptions which led to this high number, but those assumptions aren't accurate for many even in Denmark, much less throughout the rest of the world. This is a pretty good read about it - https://medium.com/@parkpoomkomet/breaking-down-the-danish-s...

So you'd need to reuse a cotton bage 70-1000 times most likely to come out ahead. Or you could reuse cotton you already have and lower that number to effectively 0.
I totally agree. I was an SAT high tester in an unsupportive home. I was not a good student. I had actually flunked a grade in elementary school though they let me pass. BTW, I ended up as a principal level at Microsoft.

When I tested 99.9 percentile in Verbal and 97 percentile in Math my father's only comment was, "Who ever thought you could test like that?" Snicker, snicker.

I'm disgusted by this decision. You HAVE to let kids have a way of knowing they have capabilities when for some reason the environment blocks that.
Polite suggestion: if you can drive in 10 mins you could probably cycle in 20-30 mins depending on details. Although not, I suppose, if 8 of those 10 mins are on high speed autobahn :)

When I lived in Rome I cycled everywhere. I was the 2nd fastest on the road for my 13-14km / 35min commute, but it takes time & effort to get fit. Public transport varied from 50 to 100 mins and private car was typically about 45 mins.

The only faster means were motorbikes & mopeds.
> If you can't find the time to do your normal tests for GPA, you won't find time to study for the SAT either.

That is just nonsense. Lets say that you have 20 hours to study per year, like a couple of weekends that are calmer etc, you can spend those on SAT and you got basically the full benefits of studying for that test since studying more isn't very beneficial. But 20 hours to study per year wont budge your GPA much at all. Close to every kid can find 20 hours to study per year, I'm pretty sure.

Or do you think that people can either study all the time, or study none of the time, no in-between at all?

Edit:

> it's only theoretical that someone who isn't used to a studying environment can somehow have the foresight to invest their few hours on this particular exam.

Not at all, I never studied for anything in high school and got shit grades. But I spent a weekend to study for a SAT once, got good on that, and got into college that way. This isn't theoretical at all, it happens all the time. It is very different to do something for a very short time, or keeping that up for 4 years straight.

In another comment I was also poking some holes into the “structured” comments, what you say above was in my head but I couldn’t quite articulate it. Well said.

I think checklist interviews miss the mark as you say. You may not have a perfect rubric, but I’m not grading students on a history exam; I am evaluating them for a role in a given position. In the limited time we have to speak, I want to use my intuition and experience as an interviewer and engineer to rapidly get to where the candidate is strong, and where they may have issues.

Stopped reading at the picture of the mushroom motherboard. I don't doubt this is something interesting and real but it's just an x86 machine with a bunch of mushrooms jammed into the heatsinks, for seemingly no reason whatsoever. It's not explained from what I can tell.

What a weird article.
The kind of cursive that I was taught as a kid and that has fallen out of favor is either the Zaner-Bloser Method, the Palmer Method, or its derivative the D'Nealian. All of these have very similar looping cursive letters, the only differences are the style of the block letters and the method of transitioning from them to cursive.

A bit of trivia: the joined letters of cursive were developed in response to the limitations of the feather quill. It was important to keep the nib in contact with the paper at all times to avoid splattering and other faults. Today the only reason to keep joins is efficiency, but the other flourishes of old-fashioned cursive are less important.
You could always go for a US federalism type deal (but made more extreme), where you try and make the Federal government as minimal as possible and cities/towns as in in control as possible. Then there would be competition between cities for tax payers, with the ability to move limiting monopoly.

But that would probably be a negative for the same reason that bigger companies inevitably swallow smaller companies without government intervention: in the modern day economies of scale are everything. 10 companies that make 10,000 of something will generally lose to 1 company that makes 100,000. Monopolies will inevitably flourish without a strong government controlling them. (And moreover, in a globally connected world, if you kill all your monopolies it’s very possible another state that allowed their’s to flourish will have companies that can outcompete yours)

I’m not exactly going anywhere with this, I don’t have a great answer to what the best option is. You can try and force there to be 2-3 companies in every sphere…but that’s barely competition. You can try and regulate the massive companies…but almost inevitably large cash-rich employers end up with sway over the government. You can try for lots of local competition and shut out foreign companies…and lose out on the many benefits of free trade. You can try and cut a balance between all of the concerns, but it seems that whenever government tries for nuance it ends up creating a very expensive bureaucracy.
Your comment just made something click for me.

CVS (a drug store) by me has also gotten rid of cashiers... but for self-checkout. So have Royal Farms, a regional gas station/convenience store chain. At both places, if you really try, you can maybe get a cashier at a single human cashier counter, but it's normally unstaffed, and everyone directed to the multiple self check out stations.

(I think USA readers know what i mean by self checkout station, but it's, where you can items yourself, and place them in bags yourself, and it yells at you if it doesn't detect the right weight of items placed in bags on a platform, and the whole thing is video taped).

Amazon's stre isn't really an alternative to cashiers, it's an alternative to universal self-checkout that everyone else is moving to -- accelerated by the pandemic, but still relatively early on the adoption curve.

I assume universal self-check-out does reduce staffing needs, which is why they are all moving to it?

I suspect the Amazon cashierless stores won't really take off until all their competition is universal self-checkout. (Which may never happen in say NYC, where you have so many independent very-low-overhead bodega-type stores. But in most places, the competition is more like CVS or Royal Farms).

Although I dunno, maybe I'm unusual in prefering human contact to self-checkout, something about the choices being self-checkout with a line or walk out of the store without checking out -- starts to make the Amazon option actually look like something you would want.

Has something changed?
Which organization? At least they can get derided publicly for doing this...
I'm not sure it actually failed. These stores work by having AI track customer actions via camera, and over the last couple of years they've gotten a ton of data and domain knowledge from them. It isn't hard to imagine that's been leveraged in whatever's watching the cameras at Whole Foods.
The whole point of the go stores was to do retail in a different way, where you had to conform to their way or it wouldn't work. Yes, it was limiting for people that didn't have a phone with them or account info. Do all of these people befuddled by the phone/app requirement for go stores struggle when they go to pick up something at an amazon locker? It's basically the same thing, you can't "talk to someone" to get your locker opened that is on the back wall of the drugstore.
We need something more like the proactionary principle instead of the precautionary principle: https://web.archive.org/web/20120203050245/http://www.maxmor...
You leave out from that study that for hydrocarbon bags the number is 30-50. Pretty easy to do that in a year.
Try this approach:

Don't clean your house ever, start leaving your dirty clothes outside her room, don't wash the dishes, don't take out the trash, let it smell.

Make your daughter be the to tell you "I told you 46 times to clean up the house!".
"How to secure phone against state actor?"

Don't use one.
I am glad someone pointed this out. I don't know the percentage but a lot of students game their GPA in school too. From pushing professors to give group assignments to using mental health days to claiming to have learning disabilities, these are all tools they have including cheating. Professors don't usually change their homework assignments every time they offer a course and online sites sell the answers. Professors know but they can't risk giving students below an A-. It causes a shit storm.
Or they can raise prices or lower profit and actually pay a living wage to their employees.

Exactly this. It should be a massive red flag that any of these males want to violate the boundaries of women and girls in the first place, knowing fine well that they are not welcome in what are supposed to be female-only spaces. Instead, it's seen as evidence that they should be permitted to do so.
Maybe also -

Add an immutable time stamp to the phrase, so I can say
“Alice warned Bob about that problem on DD-MM-YYYY” so that when Bob gets hit with it 6 months later, exactly as Alice predicted, Bob can’t say “You never told me that”

As someone with a near perfect verbal memory (I can recall conversations verbatim from my whole life) it’s incredibly frustrating to have people deny that I told them something, when I can recall the exact date, time and words, when I did :P
I've used them with very mixed results.

A radio plugged into the outlet and flipping off breakers works better. Just make sure you're playing the correct music.

Fiji water tastes better than tap water almost always. Yes, I've done a blind taste test in before.

No, it doesn't mean it's worth shipping water from an island across the ocean. In any case, my favorite water of all time is "El dorado springs", which happens to be sourced very close to me here in boulder, co.
Well, tensor cores support int8 instructions (at least from Turing onwards), so the hardware is being used, if that’s your concern.
This is a low-effort garbage article based on a false premise. The planet is not collapsing.

Otherwise it’s obviously ignorant bullshit.
I went to one in SoCal and was terrified.
the entrance they asked me you to scan my prime membership, and told me that I can then fill out my basket - and basically walk out with my stuff without checkout - just moving it into a bag on the way out.

I asked how they know what’s in my basket to charge me for it and they said that there are cameras watching me the whole time and noting what I take off the shelf and put in it.

I was beyond creeped out by the whole experience. Never went to that store again.

Knowing that they not only watch what I’m buying but also recording and analyzing my gate, motion, gaze, microecpressions etc freaked me out.

Amazon’s vision to cattle-ize humanity for profit is not attractive to me.
Ah yes the “it will be different this time I promise” defense.

Microsoft didn’t get divorced or have six jobs or even study ethics as an undergrad. It’s a corporation. Made up of the same kind of people at the same points in their careers as it has always been.

In other words I get older but Microsoft stays the same age.
(not so) fun fact: in Switzerland, it is legal to eat dog meat and to raise and slaughter dogs for that specific purpose [1]… though not commercially… unlike, say, in China, where there are even dog meat festivals [2]:

Wow. I'm not a cryptographer by any means, but have come into contact with asymmetric cryptography often enough to not do totally stupid things... But this response is really just complete and utter gibberish to me.
That's part of it, but as an Asian American immigrant myself, the stereotypes aren't really far off. "Tiger parents" is an American characterization of how Asian families are generally structured: parents (who have knowledge and life experience) dictate to kids (who lack both). Dating and relationships are discouraged (freeing up huge bandwidth for studying) while marriage is expected (heading off the tendency for extended adolescence). "Hard working" is a byproduct of being not that far removed from subsistence agriculture. "Finding yourself" is discouraged. "Carrying out your role" is encouraged.

These are cultural adaptations to an environment that's very different from America. My dad grew up in a Bangladeshi village, where people who didn't work literally didn't eat, and the vocational choices for 99% of people were "subsistence farmer." I don't think the words "fair" or "unfair" were ever uttered in my house. (And it drives me nuts when my American-born kids say that.) In America, these cultural traits become positively adaptive, because most of the competition isn't trying as hard. It boggles my mind how many Americans don't study for the SATs, but do have iPhones.
That tool says that I'm on Windows 10 but I'm on 11, so not 100% accurate.
There's a ton of conflicting research in this space, and it's by no means a "settled" issue.

Other studies have shown increased testosterone and muscle growth in men from intermittent fasting.

Intuitively, though I think the IF approach makes more sense.

We evolved to be in a sort of consistent cycle of massively reduced calories with short periods of calorie and protein bursts (from a successful hunt).

The "eat all the time" thing is pretty new to us, historically speaking, and we're poorly adapted to it (see obesity rates).

I know a lot of bodybuilders (I'm a gym rat) who do the constant eating thing to help them get bigger, but those guys are also using various hormone hacks in conjunction with their training/diet, or they tend to have a pretty high body fat percentage.
1.) Hong Kong money into China is counted by the Chinese government as FDI https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-09-05/china-rou...

2.) A more thorough report shows that China's inbound FDI has been plummeting

https://www.investmentmonitor.ai/insights/chinas-fdi-decline...

China is seeing falling inbound FDI in all its major sectors, with financial services down 62% between 2019-2022 and electronics down 56%. Which would align with all of the major technology companies pulling out of China in 2022-2023

> In terms of “meal” in the quotes above, this was most likely referring to their larger “cooked” feast later in the day.

> To be fair, I wouldn’t personally say they ate “one meal” as it really doesn’t fully describe their full daily eating habits (as you will see below in another quote).

> It was more like 2 meals. The later meal being the main and larger one, but they most likely also had an earlier smaller “meal” at some point of bread, fruit (like fig), cheese, olives or local grains mashed up into a porridge.
I'm amazed to see how common this view is on HN. You'd think the rapid progress made in AI would give more validity and attention to these concerns raised about risk and alignment.
Cheaper for Amazon, yes. Why would they externalize the profit? Just maximizing extraction by eliminating the few remaining local jobs.
Yours has the best interface I've seen so far, but the words still feel kind of obscure when I'm clicking the hint button. Ideally those should be limited to maybe the top 10,000 english words.

I think there's a really approachable game somewhere in this space, but it needs to implement something along the lines of an auto hinting system.

I imagine that for every guess, you could get a word or two that is similar (to help you understand what part of the word's context is important), and maybe words that are further away to help understand what isn't important?
How exactly? Explain how an AI would cause the end of the world? Are you suggesting we would turn over all of the world's nuclear arsenals to AI to deal with? Maybe it's just me but lately it seems like everything is being labeled as "dangerous" to the point of absurdity. It seems to be following the same line as US political rhetoric where everyone is either a Nazi or communist bent on destroying the country depending on what side you generally align with.
You can get high deliverability -- the keys, whether you're using your own servers or someone else's come down to a clean list that won't generate complaints and staying within the TOS of your mailserver host or third-party SMTP service.

Host your mail-creation/list-management/analytics stack yourself (I like Mautic and MailWizz but there are other options) and use a third party for SMTP services. Amazon SES charges $1 per 10,000 emails; other services are slightly more expensive but it's all still very affordable.
The show upload on amazon prime is basically this world. If you don't have as much money your instance can pause. You pay more money and have access to nicer things in the afterlife.
