A lot of protocols took off in part because of university adoption and it took off from there. It wasn't the only thing but it certainly planted seeds in impressionable minds.

If universities and governmental orgs start reliably running their own Matrix servers like they did with email before contracting that out I think it will happen.
LLMs open up a new means of accomplishing complex tasks. How ere, there’s still a lot of work that happens to ensure input and output behaviors align with user needs and expectations.

Technically, most of your users could build your tool themselves. They don’t because they want someone else to solve the problem for them.

Same thing with LLMs. Pay someone who specializes in a specific task to build it well.
Are you really advocating using a cross platform framework that isn’t “maintained”?

Doesn’t that argue one of the issues with using any cross platform framework?

I'm not sure what you're talking about, but it's not very related to my point about "is", which was that describing things in "[noun] is [adjective]" terms carries the implicit assumption that the universe is made up of things have objective qualities, which is a useful model most all the time but still a model, and hence ultimately wrong.

In UK we have a very clever system - The taxpayer builds all the airports. We wait and see which ones turn out to have large demand and reliable revenues.

Then we privatise large international airports..

Meanwhile the smaller loss-making airports stay in public ownership because no-one wants to buy them.
I meant the day that Windows or Mac users would regret the “lock in” like farmers do with John Deere? Especially since Linux is easy to run on top of either and many of the best tools are ported.
From the POV of corporations (which, these days, are basically paper-clip maximizing AIs that run on a mix of human brains and computer chips) this is not a problem.
No, it’s actually very surprising to me. I genuinely (and super naively, I now realize) thought gig work was ‘fair’: as in subjectively unpleasant, but ‘equally unpleasant’ for everyone having to do it.
That depends on what you mean by "accurate".

If you mean a lot of accuracy, that's obvious and doesn't really need argument. And this new fact doesn't change the argument.

If you mean a more moderate amount of accuracy, this isn't proof either way. Human brains take in less text but they put a lot more processing into it.
File formats for trackers; music sequencer programs. The files are very small because they just describe the beats/notes. Think MIDI files.

I think you are imagining some suburban kid getting a job at the local burger joint serving up burgers with a smile. Few 13 year olds are suited for service of office work.

You must view this in the context of the fact that Tyson, a fortune 100 company headquartered in Arkansas just got sanctioned for having underage child laborers working in their meat packing plants. If you have ever been in a meat plant, you would know that a child should never have to work in that environment. It is dangerous and unhealthy and not a suitable place for adults to work, much less a child.
Every company does this.

> I was 12 when COPPA went into effect and all the companies just deleted all my accounts: Email account, hosting, chat accounts, etc. It was easier than dealing with the logistics of getting parental permission.

COPPA doesn't just require permission under 13, it imposes kinds of other requirements and prohibiting users under 13 is a way of avoiding thosr requirements.
I have a (work issued) MacBook Pro 16 inch M2 Pro Mac. I charged it to 100% and it lasted two full work days on battery at a client site open most of the time running VS Code and Teams (some people were still remote) and occasionally building AWS Lambdas. The build tools let you build Lambdas within an Amazon Linux Docker container containing the appropriate runtimes when you are building on Windows or Macs.
>Getting contracts for development work with large customers can be difficult since most organizations already have preferred vendors for software development. Developing features under a support model gives you no entitlement to the technology. And, if you’re good at what you do, you’ll eventually put yourself out of a job since customers can use it without help

But there are a large number of outsourced software development companies, some of them publicly traded- Cognizant/Infosys/Wipro types, plus Accenture, plus the new generation of Eastern European ones like EPAM and Grid Dynamics. Government-y ones like CGI. Oldschool companies offering consultancies like EY/Deloitte, etc. Hovering in the background is Toptal, which is technically different but I would imagine the bulk of their revenue comes from enterprise outsourced dev contracts. All of these companies are making this business model work somehow? And there are lots of them too. So it can't be that bad of a way to make money (yes I understand that these are not VC-investable businesses)

It’s a funny intersection of hold requirements. Litigation and one set of compliance requires holding records for at least this much time, GDPR and other such things require keeping records no more than some particular time. I haven’t seen the case when the intersection is an empty interval. But I imagine then one would choose to justify breaking one of the least important ones.

There's still some passable anonymous access still but not great. For many many years Twitter themselves had RSS feeds publicly available... that was the way I followed Twitter folks for a long time.

It's hard to appreciate how much worse Twitter has gotten, and how much sense it made to be there when it was such a vibrant open platform.

I also think another commenter is spot on, that this is/was one of the best most effective ways to get information out fast. If one of your friends notices the alert they'll probably message you even if they're in some other area to let you know. The ability of any random thing to quickly get visible & boosted is unparalleled, especially for a general purpose communication network.

Cynicism is fine but it has to be willing to meet with truth to & this all used to make so so much sense, was so good. And again as another great commenter said, there were & ought to be many different ways this stuff was sent out; it's never just been Twitter.
I read it and the article admits at the end there’s no proof this is actually happening. The companies say it’s not. There’s only an academic who is theorizing about it and an anecdote from a worker that claims it feels like they are cut off from jobs when they are approaching a bonus. And the academic wants to influence the creation of a law for their made up problem.
I always wonder why people are so naive. Do they really think the local engineer hired in a developing country would be payed the same salary as an engineer in New York? And what about outsourcing to the dirt cheap workers in India or Kenia? Or the illegal immigrants doing cleaning, construction or dishwashing in your neighborhood?

Even if the multinationals use different entities to hide the fact, it’s only a legal construct to hide the exploitation. Of course there are many subtleties and perhaps minor costs but THAT IS basically the reason why companies outsource/hire in low income countries. That’s the reason for the cheap shirts you can buy and the profit the capitalists enjoy.

Exploitation is the most fundamental mechanism for the buildup of the immense wealth people possess today. Innovation is on the other hand a very rare and relatively recent factor.
Yeah, FAANG gang has no idea the level of surveillance and record keeping that bank/fund/wall st tech is under.

I worked at one shop that if you said "call my cell" in a slack to someone, you'd get a call from compliance within days ask to explain why you did this, what the conversation was about, why it wasn't on a work phone.. and to never, ever, ever do it again... because you know we are watching, so we will find you.

> actively try to screw drivers out of bonuses.

If you talk to Uber drivers, you will find that they have widely believed this to be true for many years.

It's easy to think the drivers can't do stats. But if you get "10 rides in 6 hours and final 2 rides in 3-4 hours" enough number of times, it's not hard to believe.

I suspect this is a large reason why OpenAI trains GPT-4 using a dataset that is mostly clamped at September 2021.

It's almost certainly a problem for LLM development, just like it is for humans. Humans generate all sorts of stuff, some of it being absolute bullshit, and it does seem to cause problems for other humans. Yet with effort it still seems to be possible to cut through the bullshit in a lot of cases, so it's likely not an insurmountable problem for LLM development either.
> He may get away with it because he's a supreme court justice

That would be a massive blow against the system.
I always find it interesting to compare 4TB/month pricing against buying N 4TB hard drives yourself, where N is the desired redundancy. Typically, you could buy a fresh set of hard drives 2-3x per year for the "standard" (they don't even call it "premium") storage tier. A normal drive lasts 5 years: go figure. (The markup was about double ten years ago, so it has gotten more competitive already.)

Of course, that's not entirely apples to apples because they save you labor time, but I find it an interesting baseline comparison, also because their labor is divided over a hundred thousand customers and approximates to zero per customer.

Another thing people tend to forget is that it's a backup copy, not your only. You don't need the premium storage if you keep the original copy around anyway and the odds of 3 unrelated drives (1 at home, 2 off-site) dying at the same time are probably better than you getting into a car crash this year. I did have 2 die at the same time: same make and model, nearly identical serial numbers, surprise: same crash date and crash behavior (few KB/s sequential read speeds for a while, but strangely no data was corrupted, before entirely crashing).

IIUC, there's essentially a few vendors that own the vast majority of space in most airports, and the reason rents are so high, is because they outbid everyone (knowing that they can charge $15 for a bologna sandwich)- not because the asking rent starts high.

The problem is the business model - which could be considered price gauging - not the airport.
At least in the past they were spending a few pennies for lobbying to various legislators on both sides of the isle. With a bit of luck and they’d be calling in some favors.

That "40 MBps after the SLC cache was full" was measured on a 500GB drive. A 2TB drive would have an SLC cache at least 4x larger and post-cache write speeds around 4x higher—bringing it up to roughly the level of mechanical hard drives and beyond the speed of Gigabit Ethernet.

In short, the problem you're complaining about wouldn't matter for the drive in question.

It's sad that there are specific browser-oriented websites (and development processes, obviously) instead of the standards-oriented ones.

(Sure, it's Chrome-oriented ones. We've seen similar previously with IE, by the way.)

We have standards for the web. Real ones: the docs, which are discussed and approved in the industry. We have them for a long time!

So if some browser does not comply to the standards, it's really not the best strategy to adapt a site to the browser instead of the standards.

We are in the situation when (effectively) one company (Google/Alphabet) can lead anything to the whole market, step by step (even when changes contradict the web standards that are in place). The market is not the browsers market, of coyrse, but the internet ads through browsers control, which brings the most money to Google. By projecting its power to each and any aspect of it, Google ensures the uninterrupted market control for years ahead. So Google will continue to do. In the long run, we need to rely on standards instead of specific browsers. Otherwise it's just the monopoly of Google and web tech "market" is just their own backyard. That will bite us all hard.

Local is the org local repo, where they publish their internal packages. The remote is the public repo in the Internet.

In Java builds we usually had:

build -> org local repo -> maven central

So the local repo (be it Artifactory or Apache Archiva) works as a proxy. It dowloads the artifacts form internet if the artifact is not present locally. The build does not go directly to the maven central.

One of the biggest pieces of why suvs are more dangerous is the hood height. It’s not a small factor, its the main factor.

Minivans will hit you in the lower body or legs, deflecting you up into the sloped surface of the hood.

By contrast, most suvs have blunter higher noses, causes the initial point of contact to be in the chest or head area, where injuries tend to be more life threatening, and physics will tend to cause you to topple over onto concrete and under the vehicle.

For comparison check out the contrast here https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/chrysler-voyager-20...

It’s pretty clear that the minivan will contact you significantly lower. If you want something truly scary swap the highlander for a full size SUV like a Yukon

Software engineers are also paid differently by company and within companies. I know you know this.

They give you different raises according to a highly imperfect measure of your productivity and value to the firm. Two people with identical tenure and identical titles likely have different salaries on average.

None of this should be remotely surprising. And what’s the alternative ???
I don’t know where your faith that deregulating and privatizing would help the experience comes from. Here in Europe once they privatized parts of rail travel the experience got markedly worse. I moved to Europe about 20 years ago and it used to be much more of a pleasure taking trains with the EU (mostly talking about long range international trains within Central Europe) even not that long ago.

Specifically in Germany the experience seems to have only gotten worse (both with quality of service and punctuality).

Does KE matter? I suspect that as long as the momentum is large enough that that that hitting the bicycle or pedestrian doesn't cause more than an insignificant change in the car's speed all that matters is speed and the shape of the front of the car.

Consider for example being hit be a large freight train moving at 1 km/hr. The mass, KE, and momentum of the train will be larger than a large car moving at 100 km/hr but being hit by the train probably wouldn't seriously injure you, unless you happened to fall under the train and get run over or fell to the side and happened to hit your head.

>It's incredibly dumb to explicitly discuss avoiding leading a paper trail with respect to subjects where litigation is imminent or already in progress.

I'd say it's incredibly dumb to do that on a platform that can record the interaction.

I never understood why folks use platforms like slack/email/etc. to discuss stuff they don't want others to know about.

The ideal for that, of course, is to have in-person conversations in a place either known to be free of surveillance and/or difficult to surveil.

Failing that, assuming you trust the other party (which, in a case like the one we're discussing, you'd think would be the case), an unrecorded telephone call (yes, you can actually still do that) will work in a pinch.

I don't know how many times (many, though), I've met with someone in person or spoken via telephone about stuff that might be less than flattering (for me, at least, nothing illegal/unethical -- usually more about discussing my or the other party's activities/behavior that might reflect poorly on either of us or the organization) to avoid any record of such conversation.

I'm not suggesting that people should organize/discuss unethical/illegal things on any platform (in person included). Rather, I am surprised that folks have and continue to do so on recorded (or even potentially recordable) media.

Especially someone as obviously (how else could he have come to head GOOG) smart and savvy as Pichai.
