Excel, like the entirety of the titles in the Office Suite, was originally developed on the Mac - where it was hardly used since the Mac wasn't targeted to business at the time. Excel was ported to Windows 2.0, but like the Mac, hardly any business was using that. In the 1980's business ran on Lotus 123, not Excel.

All that changed after the release of Windows 3.0, but by that time Microsoft was already "The Dominator" as you put it. Excel 3.0 was released for Windows, Lotus took way too long to come up with a Windows release and Excel, with its GUI, had come to dominate the market. The rest is history, as they say.
You're obviously a Red Hat employee. It might be worth disclosing it.

I don't quite agree though. Sure, RH can decide when to patch, but a researcher isn't wrong just because they say "Hey, RHEL isn't patched".

Should RHEL be patching sooner? Maybe. Though I get patches can have unintended consequences. However, I like the idea of a third part scrutinizing this stuff. Otherwise companies will do the wrong thing and claim their security posture is perfect.
This is on purpose. `create-react-app` is now considered outdated, "older workflow". See: https://github.com/reactjs/react.dev/pull/5487#issuecomment-...
> the extrapolation can't continue linearly much further if for no other reason than the test loss isn't going to go below zero

Isn’t the test loss logarithmic? If so it sure can go below zero.
Everyone assumed there would be malicious compliance here but it's definitely eye opening just how malicious they made it. Speaks volumes for the perceived risk releasing this data, IMO. Still waiting to hear about someone using this data to negotiate down a hospital bill, seems like it's just insurance companies that can weaponize this data for better rates.
The problem is, I'm not sure you can trust any news out of china to be the 100% unvarnished truth anymore. Seems the only way you hear any bad news out of china is when it gets 'too big to hide'.
There are still a ton of differences: contemporary music doesn't have the same divisions of works into movements separate from what appears on an album (you don't generally have covers of entire albums); while a cover of a particular song is a common search, it is far less common to try and find all covers by other artists from a particular artists (i.e. all piano works by Beethoven); and finally, most contemporary music has a single name meanwhile most famous classical works have many (opus/catalogue number, sonata number, nicknames, foreign language names, etc.).

As a bonus, most contemporary music probably also doesn't feature dozens of artists (while the whole orchestra usually isn't listed individually, all the soloists in an opera often are). That said, I think this is one area where apps have improved.
Sheldon Brown is a great resource for bike information - lots of no-nonsense advice and explanations though it is getting a bit out-of-date now since his death. A particular favourite of mine is his chain cleaning method: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/chainclean.html
> The position of the countries that want "peace" is bizarre in the media: "you should just stop fighting the invader and then it's no longer war. You don't want war do you?"

It’s not “bizarre” just calculated. Most of the world doesn’t give a shit about Ukraine and would be perfectly happy for Russia to annex it so long as the economic disruption from the sanctions and oil price increases stop. They can’t outright say it because western countries are big trade partners but that’s what they mean reading between the lines.
I don't want my personal morals to control what others can pay for.

The current system of thought is to make it harder for Peter to buy a coffee in the morning to try and stop Paul from paying for DDOS traffic.

Decouple it the way that WhatsApp decoupled itself from the problem of three letter agencies wanting to know message contents with E2EE.

As it stands, if some hedge fund doesn't like your product it can pressure VISA to stop letting people to buy it. And that's it game over. It doesn't need to be legally wrong, or even morally wrong. Just don't what some rich dude wants going on.
> it's interesting that BRICS countries aren't selling weapons to Russia

Russia is far ahead of even China when it comes to military technology and others in terms of industrial weapon production capacity.

Russian rockets are currently lifting US astronauts into space and Chinese aircraft into the air.
No, but I suspect I would feel the same way.
i feel lucky that i was laid off early in my career. now i just don't care, take nothing for granted, and i pretty much always assume the corp will fuck me over at any given time

honestly i just drank and played videogames for a while and found another better higher paying job in a couple weeks. presumably there are other remote options for you?
Came here to post this. I would love to see all the same force animations but with these models swapped into them.
yeah. some people here aren't grasping that it's important to the "western" nations that india does in fact buy russian oil and gas. Any words in public otherwise are just for show.
Maybe you could define it for me, since that seems to be the first hurdle that makes these discussions unproductive.
> I have SHOWN you that the actual POPULATION of Ukraine was majority against NATO, for the very reasons given by everyone else — they didn’t want war with Russia and they chose economic and military ties with Russia over NATO. So why was Ukraine’s president working with NATO to get Ukraine into NATO?

Because he thought it was the best way forward. The population didn't think so, so they elected another president who stopped further integration into NATO and ultimately Ukraine didn't end up joining. This is how politics, governance and elections work.

As I've said, whether countries joined NATO or not was up to them. The door was open, but nobody was dragging them in by force as you wrote. That's a lie.
Which one was the second one? I'm assuming the first and third are the Great Recession and Covid.
It arguably needs much less training data though.
"Your Honor, on the way to murder the victims, my client passed by several people who he allowed to live, therefore my client is not guilty of murder."
The way to prevent China from invading Taiwan was to foster a friendly relationship.

The US has squandered what good will it had with China to the point that they and even India have aligned more closely to Russia as a consequence of the Ukraine conflict.

The inability of the west to effectively put an end to Russian aggression in Ukraine only makes an invasion of Taiwan more likely.
I'm not entirely sure what Saudi Arabia, Hawaii, or Guatemala have to do with Taiwan.

I see that you're pissed off about these other world events, but I'm not sure what any of that has to do with the subject matter. As such, I conclude you're trying to do the Russian propaganda technique "whataboutism", where you detract from the primary discussion point by talking about unrelated subjects. The way I try to defeat this is by simply staying focused and avoid trying to be distracted by the obvious red herrings.

> Sorry, I'm not equipped to handle this.

Are you equipped to talk about Taiwan in any capability? Do you have any perspective worth sharing on that subject? I recognize that various people of the world have anti-American views, good or bad, worth sharing.

But with regards to this topic (TikTok ban), its clear that Taiwan and the military situation stands front and center.
Kinda does look like round peg square hole situation.

"Federated network" could be modeled by a stream of posts (comments, tweets, whatever else) that are either a start ("root") of conversation or reply to one or more previous post(s), so it does form a graph. Then a bunch of "indexes" like "each post with this tag", usually ordered via some kind of filter (time, how popular the twat posting it is, removing any offensive or NSFW ones etc).

But there is really nothing to merge and not much else common to git aside from sitting on its store and protocol

Potato: The Portable Text Annotation Tool
It's possible on NixOS to feel like you are struggling with a problem that you already know how to solve, dammit! This frustration hits harder earlier on in one's Nix journey, imo, when your first instinct may be to just edit that dang config file under /etc.

As you progress, though, the 'layer of indirection' phenomenon almost reverses, as the Nixpkgs repository becomes a quick and reliable resource you can use to learn about how to configure and manage software that you didn't already know all that well.
Not sure how true this is. Perhaps it doesn't count for internationals? But at least one person I know paid pretty much full price despite coming from a humble background.
Pretty much all insurance plans allow you to add spouse any time if the reason is that spouse got laid off and is no longer covered by an employer insurance plan. It may even be the law.
I'd probably agree that over the long haul, Russia can defeat Ukraine even if they consistently suffer double the casualties, other things being equal.

But there are other fronts. Russia is being attrited in more ways than simply manpower. Every month is reducing their military, economic, and cultural influence worldwide. They're already at the point where if they succeeded completely in Ukraine tomorrow they'd still be worse off than before the invasion.

A victorious war of attrition can be a loss for Russia and Ukraine.
This part bears repeating: "you can enroll in COBRA retroactively for some period of time".
> whereas someone from a high tax country loses roughly half their income on them

Please, typically those taxes go (not completely) to stuff you’d otherwise be paying for from your after tax cash.

One obvious one is health care (which Americans pay much more for than Europeans, just not via their taxes). Less spent on roads: more car maintenance/shorter car lifespan.

One can have a reasonable argument over which should be bundled and which should be unbundled, but to say broadly that one “loses” on taxes is either lazy or ideology.
Like tech bros who colonised the terra nullus of the work previously done by hidden figures then?

> proportion of women represented in the computer science field peaked around the mid-1980s and has declined ever since
> COVID has numerous variants. Which variant are you discussing?

Obviously the variants that were spreading at the time the vaccine was rolled out. Which other variants would they compare it to?

> Why should I get vaccinated when I already have natural immunity,

I never said you should. I said you made a bad decision by getting infected prior to vaccination.
Unicycles have a similar counter-intuitive control method where you need to accelerate the wheel to slow down and vice versa. Turning doesn't work quite the same way though as you can do sharp turns by twisting your hips and thus changing the direction that the wheel is pointing.
The real value is in their data. The code is cool but without data to create contexts it’s whatever.
Keep in mind that there's a 30-day window to exercise the QLE for an employer-provided health insurance plan.

I would recommend starting the process immediately to avoid any issues with the time involved with collecting the required documentation.
Yep, that's how you have to install a lot of them. But it seems to work offline perfectly ok after that.
Ah, I see now: on my laptop I can use arrow keys to scrub. Not smoothly but workable. A real shame it isn't usable on a touch device.
Omg the MRR or SaaS part is like less than $200. LTDs make up 90% of my revenue.
The ban is not having an issue between China and US. US can do whatever to China, and only need balance potential retaliation. There is no moral debate between countries, just power play.

The ban is an issue between US government/politicians and US people. There are some nominal moral contract between the government and people, and the ban need to be justified and satisfied by people's moral belief, such as open internet. Without sufficient moral justification, people's trust against the government is at risk.
They don't need to send a compliance auditor out to your house if they can block the key.
Definitely agree with all the advantages you describe. There's no reason to not consider UToronto, McGill, Waterloo, UBC, etc except perhaps that they don't use common app (though if I recall the application process was supposed to be much easier).

>it's huge. 40k kids. And they are all the top kids. Canada builds big schools and just gets shit done

If you have a kid who wants more of a small school vibe I think that's also possible. I didn't go, but UToronto does residential colleges more like Oxbridge, I'd imagine that helps greatly w/ encouraging socializing.
A desperate startup trying to trick retail investors into holding the bag at an offensive valuation should come with immediate criminal charges. Their board and executive team should've been arrested for financial fraud by the end of the day that email was sent. Every single person in a leadership role at Substack knows they are not worth $585 million.

I am only half serious in saying it. But it does make me angry seeing accredited investors dumping their trash onto naive retail investors. a16z knows a lot about this, like the article mentioned.
i'm about to turn 47 and have maybe $4k left on my student loan. I bet the day i make hte last payment is the day they announce loan forgiveness for good hah.
Iceland isn't tiny.
I would explain it like this: take a tennisball and shine a flashlight on it from one side. Make sure you do not see the origin of the light by holding it just right of your shoulder.

OpenAI’s API is stateless, which means you need to send the entire conversation thread in each request.

So when you send a response like “perfect, now do…”, you’re reinforcing the language model that the conversation history is on the right track.
I'm native speaker and find reading those manuscript hard, they are like an exclusive club, manuscript scattered in libraries around the world and you have to know the right people or who to ask to get what you want.

Check out the video demonstration here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lu8oq_hKpac

I'd appreciate any feedback and suggestions. You can download the plugin here: https://github.com/drewbaumann/AskGPT
they can but they need to focus on revenue.

regarding the 500-section tax code, there is a way to do anything. 501c4 and above fix most of the issues that c3's have. there is a way to navigate.
maybe 9/11 + Iraq war, not sure... losing count at this point
I think that founders have become older since 2006.

There are a lot of people work for a big company for a while, or go into an industry, then go to a start up.

I don't have any data to show this is true, but I suspect that it is.
There are a few ideas that I really like here:

- Managing data (push/pull/etc) in a common, widely-supported protocol (git)

- which has a large, stable, and free-as-in-beer implementation (GitHub)

- as well as some major competitors (Bitbucket/GitLab)

- and is possible to self-host (gitea, OSS GitLab)

What I'd love to see:

- posts are currently in JSON format. Make it something more readable (like Markdown+YAML), at least optionally. That way people can interact _directly_ in GitHub, instead of using a janky client

- The main problem with decentralized frameworks is always "search and discoverability". Someone needs to aggregate all the data in a centralized database and make it easy for others to pick through
I’m an American and I’d probably oppose direct military support for Taiwan? Aside from the obvious fact it seems like it could easily escalate into a direct war between the US and China, why is it the USs business in the first place?

The US/UK didn’t do anything to save Hong Kong’s democracy, so I don’t know how much I’d buy the tired “protecting democracy everywhere” approach. Is it just because we have military bases there?
This article is mainly focusing on serverless architectures where there can be no persistent connection for pooling.
Never heard of it. Show us this... the wheel
but open ideals are enlightened ones, so it cannot be bigotry per your definition.

I suggest staring deeply into why culture and natural language work like they do (or used to do, seems only stubborn 'artistic' types are working with culture like that nowadays)
I think you're being facetious, but Russia is one of the top 4 countries in the world for immigration: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/immigrati...
Happy to share. Its a rough journey for everyone.
What method do you use to cluster? HDBSCAN?
Bound to be controversial hot take: serverless is the boring architecture you were looking for in the first place
Remote jobs are still out there, but you need to get ready to take a pay cut.

I definitely took a massive cut and I'm making about what I was making 4 years ago. I rode the salary bubble and my income ballooned during the pandemic. Now it's back to reality. I can't blow money like I used to.

The only tip I can give is get used to rejection. It's much harder to get a job now.
You'll get other advice here -- and you'll be amazed at how far down you can pare your expenses when necessary.

I'll offer other kinds of suggestions:

1) I've looked back on my gap periods and realized there were things I could have done to better use my time, but in ways not directly related to finding the next job. You can only "job hunt" so many hours each day, you'll have to do other things too. Finish your degree? Maybe, if it feels productive and not enervating. Get a weird side certification? Might be more energizing to get that welding certification, or something orthogonal, not necessarily career-oriented, but productive and distracting.

2) Get physical, if you aren't already. It's a great time to work out (you have the time), and the application of discipline towards bettering yourself will carry-over to the other things. Wanted to do something that employment blocked before, like the Appalachian trail? Don't not do it because you don't feel deserving. That's one of those black holes you have to work hard to keep at bay.

Bonus:

Apply for unemployment benefits.

Find a way to be of service.

Lighten the load for your wife.
RSS really feels where the whole distributed thing peaked. I can subscribe to who I want where I want and if I want to see some new stuff either follow "what people I follow link to in their blogs" or get RSS channel of some topical federator.

All it missed was similiar distributed way to conversate instead of just reading and maybe leaving a comment on a blog
Possibly, probably.

Technology does not, in itself, create all the advantages. I likely have the same model iPhone as Bezos but his contact list probably includes much more powerful people. Similarly, we could have access to the same AI but he’d be positioned to derive much more leverage from it
My understanding is that most bird flu variants that spreads from birds to humans does not also spread from humans to humans.
Im from Germany and Im working alongside people with a masters degree in CS while I only have an apprenticeship with a bad „high school diploma“. All that based on one year of work experienced and being very eager to learn things.

26 years of work experience are worth way more than most degrees, I wouldnt worry one bit. Especially with a good resume which I guess OP has, since he hasnt been unemployed for 26 years!
> And we're talking about TikTok content in America, not in Hong Kong.

Why? Is Hong Kong not worthy of the same rights to freedom of information as America?
Seems like really important work that gains more value as more people hear about it. I hope that what you're doing will lead to better data and greater transparency.
The US doesn’t have the highest proportion of immigrants, nor is it the most welcoming to most (I am myself an immigrant to the US, and was welcomed).

It’s in the top quartile of both criteria, though.
I remember that the FDIV bug was made "worse" because of Intel apparently not caring that it happened.
I actually set up a scheduled task that runs every 5 minutes (maybe overkill, but I didn't know with what frequency they get reenabled) to make sure any task that can wake my computer from sleep is turned off.

I got so tired of Windows turning on my computer in the middle of the night, checking for updates (but never actually applying any) to apply updates, and then leaving it on all night afterwards, like WTF.
Is there any way you can show that? Like some kind of audit that verifies all the domains you register are associated with real customers somehow? I really want to trust you and your team, and have never experienced front-running while using your service, and I realize it is hard to prove you are not doing something, but I have to think that some kind of technical/audit-trail solution would be a lot more effective than replying on various social media posts.
Cost of living is way too high, it's not a great place for nomad workers.
I mean, the LLM is happy to give you the answer you told it you wanted in the first place, with lots of flowery language and justifications. We're really in core LLM competencies here.

But, sure, the customer can't _know_ it's just an LLM or it's not going to work -- what are they even paying for then?

But really, secretly replacing all consultants with an LLM seems just so perfect for these folks, whose "consulting" was already at the level of quality of an LLM regurgitating what everyone else is saying but making it sound pretty and customized to you. An LLM is _perfect_ for what this industry delivers.
Have these models been trained on the same dataset? Otherwise it is apples to oranges comparison.
