I want to learn latex to write resumes using overleaf templates
Which udemy course or youtube course should I take for it? Please guide. I want to improve the looks of my resume.
Depends on the business. Some are definitely an extreme version of “caring about the results of our actions but having no meaningful control over those outcomes” but some are very different.
Sorry to hear. Hope you get back to normal soon!
I've so far had good success with the ones Yuji sells; they are conceptually like buying a PC directly from Intel: Yuji makes LEDs (I'm not aware of them fabbing the semiconductor wafers in-house, nor synthesizing the phosphors in-house, but they develop them) that pride themselves in optical quality (using double and triple phosphor systems for CRI 95+ and CRI 98+, respectively) to justify their ~1$/W (electrical) price tag for strips of the lower grade (about double for the higher grade).

My main ceiling light is a now-discontinued remote phosphor 10W bulb, where the LED chip is covered by a loose plastic dome that is infused with the phosphor.
The scattering gives a really wide and even light cone to partially illuminate the ceiling for extra diffusion.
IIRC it was rated 20k hours probably due to the PSU, though I operate it uncontained for best (passive) cooling (and because I don't look at the socket it's hanging from anyways, lest I get an afterimage of the dome on my retina from staring at the lamp, so the non-fancy fixture doesn't bother me).

The PSU I got for some ultra-warn-white (iirc 1900K) strip (5m of 20W/m 24V PWM-able) from them (a knob on it does PWM dimming (iirc) just past the audible range)) was like 80 or 90 bucks, on top of the iirc ~110 bucks for the strip itself.

Given they don't seem to sell in normal retail stores, I'm not worried about brand inflation/"paying for the name", given their marketing is focused on spectrum measurements and color performance with the listed prices being "affordable" (1$/W @ 20ct/kWh means it costs as much to buy as the next 5000 hours of runtime will cost in electricity; I take "twice as much total operating cost than with literally free/gifted bulbs" as "affordable").

AI Injections: Direct and Indirect Prompt Injections and Their Implications
I don’t think this problem is new, or requires a different solution than the ones we already have. The output of an LLM is no different than any other type of untrusted user input, and untrusted user input is used to trigger code execution all the time. We already have plenty of tools to address this problem, and if developers aren’t using them it’s not because of any unique about LLMs.
maybe it's not per-person but the total for a small group. 7 6-figure salaries doesn't seem absurd.
I haven't yet tried an ad-supported game (with an IAP to remove ads), but I think those perform the best overall. Personally I'm opposed to ads for a number of reasons (privacy, bandwidth usage, ad quality), so I'm not sure I'll ever try one of those.

I was lucky to get my first game, Downwordly, as Game of the Day on iOS. This plus other sustained featuring (Essential Word Games) led to 50k+ downloads. Unfortunately I did a bad job with the IAP value proposition (both explaining it and what it actually is), so the conversion rate is abysmal (<1%). Pine Tar Poker was also Game of the Day a few weeks back and had some sustained featuring (Best New Games). That let me ship a few hundred copies over a few days but once the featuring dried up, the sales did too.

Well Word is currently featured under Best New Games and is getting decent download numbers in the mid 100s and has a great conversion rate of ~15%. I'm hopeful that it can continue to spread through word of mouth and the built-in score sharing.

I have made next to nothing on Android. I've never (that I know of) had any featuring and the Play Store doesn't have as many editorial pushes in my experience. To be honest, the download count and revenue from Android is such that I only release games there because it takes less than an hour or so (thanks Unity) and my brother uses Android.

I'm currently working on an expanded version of Pine Tar Poker for console + Steam so I'm interested to see what I can learn in that space! Let me know if you have any other questions. I hope hearing about my experience so far was helpful.

And the NIH study just says there has not been any research done on the issue yet.

The issue isn't with Android Auto/CarPlay, but the legacy Bluetooth features that give the car access to your phonebook and SMS logs. You need to make sure to decline those when connecting your phone.

> toss out the "AI can be sentient" side

There are no two "sides" making claims about AI. There is one side, making claims such as "AI can be/is/may be sentient".

If somebody makes such claims they have the "burden of proof" because they are the ones making the claim. It's not a moral obligation to prove it. "Burden of proof" simply means if you don't provide a proof, nobody (I would hope) will believe you.

Note the skeptics are not making any counter-claims, they are simply saying if you make such fantastic claims about current AI, please show us the proof, else we rationally cannot trust your judgment.
> Since it seems like you are computing both the shortest and the "most interesting" path between the two articles, it would be cool to give me a way to see both on the final loaded page. The shortest path is interesting too, even if it is less interesting than the one you ultimately generate.

I agree. Sometimes it loads fairly quickly and you only get a second to look at the shortest path.
> Is it a backdoor if the owner put it there deliberately to be able to detect regular OS-level viruses?

Yes. Unless the owner has a perfect guarantee that they will be the only ones who can use it and the will be aware of it every time it is used. The likelihood of this being true in the given environment is next to zero.

They own it, though. They're free to fool themselves about it if they like.

For anyone wondering about driving an EV long term on solar, this couple [1] is currently driving the length of West Africa in an EV powered by solar panels they carry with them.

A full day in the sun nets them about 250km of range (about 150mi). They just did a stretch of about 4500km (2800mi) powered exclusively by the sun, but they do sometime plugin to the local grid when possible.

Interestingly, I took 999 days to drive 54,000 miles right around the coastline of Africa in a gas powered Jeep, which means I averaged 54 miles a day. In their vehicle they can average around 75 miles a day, so they'll be able to do the trip faster than I did if they want to. It's worth pointing out though I would rather do it slower and have more experiences than do it faster.

At the “school” (interpret this as the mandatory minimum education level provided to all) level of education … We don’t really want people to understand actual reality at all. We want to initially foster a desire for achievement to help fuel the remaining education, train children to fit into social hierarchy they will encounter later (boss replaces teacher in telling you what to do each day), train basic social skills such as minimal numerical literacy so on average people aren’t swindled, average literacy so they can read signs and other things needed to interact with the world.

The entire early education process has been developed first to train new factory workers, we’re not going to make the children work, we’re going to teach them and then they will be better workers, and only in recent decades begun to transform into a pipeline for training young children for more demanding secondary education as an in between stage with more educational goals which range from learning practical skills ahead of starting a trade or focusing on academic preparation ahead of tertiary academic effort such as college and/or university.

It’s only once you get to university or college that you actually start getting taught about what reality is and how it works. That is when we usher them behind the curtain and show them the backstage elements that the world is build from. Be it mathematics, engineering, sociology, engineering, medicine, or others… until you get here it’s all just been prep work, full of what my better teachers have referred to as “lies to children”.

The idea that education is about actual reality is a horrendous oversimplification that hides the significant shortcomings and problems in primary and secondary education around the world that need addressing to help future children.
Interesting! Thanks for the [4] link.
>> caring about the results of our actions but having no meaningful control over those outcomes

This really dies sum it up in a useful generic way. Ultimately the balance of this sentence will differ from context to context, but the equation ultimately has to balance.

Put another way, if you care a lot, but have no agency, then ultimately you will be frustrated.

If you care a lot, but have no resources, then again, you get frustrated.

Burnout is just the moment whe you stop fruitlessly caring. But you -want- to care (about something) so not-caring leads to depression.

Matching your care to resources available is a good start. Make sure you care about something that can be materially affected by your resources. Feeling under-resourced is a sign that those allocating the resources have different goals to you.

If your care exceeds your agency in resources product direction, code quality, then you can choose to care less, (find something else to care about), align your caring to match those who do have agency, or move on.

Starting your own business gives you agency, so you're free to allocate resources as you choose. However you still need to aquire those resources (which in turn can change what you care about.)

Starting and running your own business is enormously freeing - it gives you complete agency. But its also HARD. People don't pay you for what -you- care about, they pay you for what -they- care about. Its very hard to find customers who appreciate your priorities, and it's also hard to adjust your priorities (aka what you care -about-) to match theirs.

But if you get it right, it's amazing.

> but all things considered negligible impact on total productivity or the physical economy.

It is obscenely hard to measure those sorts of things.

OK, here is one example.

It used to be that engineers (the physical kind, not the software kind) had their own secretaries to manage meetings and fetch documents.

Those secretaries are all out of work now, replaced by Outlook and PDFs.

Modern farms are wired with thousands upon thousands of IOT sensors, precisely controlling every aspect of the fields and crops. Soil is maintained in perfectly ideal conditions. The internet is what made this possible.

The Internet has allowed for individuals to easily trade stocks, which has had who knows how large of an impact on the economy, but I am willing to guess it isn't a small one.

The Internet also enabled all sorts of algorithmic trading to pop up.

Television is of course a huge source of economic output in its own right.

6.9% of the US GDP is Media and Entertainment, not sure if that includes video games or not.

The tech industry is at least 10% of the US GDP, remove the Internet and that drops dramatically.

With the hype many people have a difficult time interpreting research. Thinking it is all results oriented. For readers, you need to remember that there's still a lot of theory research that's important. Research is far more than getting benchmark results or flashy images. Benchmarks are only proxies for what we're actually trying to learn and as such need to be evaluated with care (I wrote about this recently). This is especially true for metics that use parametric models to evaluate, such as FID. It's problematic if we can't do research in a research field. Research isn't production, though the two can overlap.
No way? Damn, I had no idea I wasn't this thing I hadn't ever claimed to be! Huh.
Those numbers seem widely optimistic and probably assume the panels are always optimally generating, when panel placement is a huge performance factor.

Those panels are maybe generating 0.1 kwh in the top quartile of exposure, and have a battery over 50 Kwh in capacity.

On an amazing day you may charge a single kwh. That's a 2% increase at best.

Every single naive person asks why they can't put a solar panel on a car and get rid of gasoline. They don't understand the surface to output relationship of solar power. This is mainly a marketing gimmick. Ideally those panels could be optimally placed and generate their full potential. Using them so inefficiently is a waste.
That's if you connect it over old-school Bluetooth, and it shows a permission prompt asking you if you want to do it or not.
Russia-pushed UN Cybercrime Treaty may rewrite global law. It's not great
> Structural problems require structural solutions. Healthy organizations, healthy people.

It's not the author's conclusion, but this is basically my fantasy ever since watching Billions with Wendy Rhoades's character. In that show, Wendy is a performance coach working for a hedge fund whose job is to emotionally pump up the people who work for the hedge fund. The hedge fund employs her because (leaving aside the soap opera dynamics for a second) it recognizes that emotional support is both (a) necessary for fully realizing the potential of their knowledge workers (b) not something that every employee is naturally gifted at providing, neither at work for their colleagues nor in their personal lives.

More companies should employ such coaches and schedule regular sessions for all their employees. If everything's great, then great. If not, it's definitely cheaper than employee churn.
It's been possible since the first orbital dockings in the 60s, but nobody's really found the levels of effort and costs to be practical.

ControlNet is great and is missing in MidJourney.

I find most of the community models for Stable Diffusion to be pretty poor. A lot of models made from merges, waifu only models, models made from very small training datasets, and still stuck on 1.5 while 2.1 is much better overall.

However you have the amazing LoRas for 2.1 that are very powerful. The community is a bit ignoring them, but I think the potential is great.

But MidJourney is a lot better at text to image and image to image for now.
The things being discussed in these threads are valid criticism. The cars have deep flaws and the corporation has an expectation that exuberant owners will continue to do free marketing and PR for them.

Ban away if you need to but I'll continue to level valid critiques at a tech company selling an $80,000 luxury sedan without a spare tire.
The term "matrix derivative" is a bit loaded - you can either mean the derivative of functions with matrix arguments, or functions with vector arguments that have some matrix multiplication terms. Either way, I don't really understand what the confusion is about - if you slightly modify the definition of a derivative to be directional (e.g. lim h->0 (f(X + hA) - f(X))/h) then all of this stuff looks the same (vector derivatives, matrix derivatives and so forth). Taking this perspective was very useful during my PhD where I had to work with analytic operator valued functions.
It's not. We don't need to make that statement anymore; it's been made sufficiently. It's putting centenarians in custody for no actual gain to society, just to score political points, and it's disgusting. If it's a statement, it's a statement that "we're willing to waste time and public money to virtue signal, when the problem will take care of itself in a very short amount of time."
Cynical take is that the company is performing psy-ops on its own employees. Having a psychologist as a performance coach at your workplace is kinda f-ed up if you think about the ways things can go wrong

Show HN: Integrate third party APIs with ease using GraphQL
We built Poozle (an open source platform) to simplify API integrations. Instead of dealing with multiple providers with different syntax and requirements, our platform offers a standardised interface through GraphQL.

Why we built this:

1. In our previous jobs, we did many integrations and found no standardisation to the process.
2. Existing Unified API solutions lack customizability and only work for integrating multiple integrations from one vertical.

Our beta version includes:

1. Plug n Play Integrations: Choose an integration from our pre-built list and start using it.
2. Playground: Write a GraphQL query to retrieve a response from the API. The playground includes API documentation for easy discovery and testing.
3. Integrate with your codebase: Seamlessly talk to all the APIs from your codebase using a unique URL provided by Poozle.
4. Observability: Our monitoring dashboard tracks API usage, latency, and error rates for quick incident detection.

We're still early, so we would love your feedback and opinion. Also, let us know if you need a specific API integrated.

This is why i don't think the concept of an "installer" should be the way software gets published and distributed to end users. Very few software packages actually _need_ to have installers - things like system/hardware drivers are the ones that come to mind.

Instead, use the portable apps model (https://portableapps.com/) , where you have a single binary that runs, and can be deployed by a simple copy/extract. Ditto with uninstallation.

This is what MacOS has, so that's why mac software is just a bundle inside a directory (that ends in `.app`).
A bit of an exaggeration, there are many profitable public companies with low or negative net profit (accounting profit after depreciation/amortisation) this is tax reduction strategy that high growth SaaS companies take because investors look at ARR growth rather than margins, competition is bruising so investing in product is more important than managing for profit in the long run, ie if your product fall behind you can't ever be very profitable in the future. This is aruagbly better for customers too, money into the product instead of being taken off the table to investors/tax. But these companies have positive free cash flow which generally means their cash on hand increases each quarter (not bleeding with a runway). Datadog Crowdstrike, ZoomInfo, Snowflake, Workday

This really depends on the specific building. There are many office buildings that could have slapdash remodels done to make them habitable and revenue positive, and there is plentiful pent up demand for affordable rents in urban cores.

Nevermind the knock on effects of retaining and growing the on street retail base that has fled entirely commercial sections of many urban cores. You don't get a safe, friendly neighborhood when the streets are deserted every evening after 5:30pm.
