Those kind of questions never occur in a vacuum, so there's no simple answer. What were the circumstances of this magic one-time murder? At least you'd expect a pretty thorough evaluation and monitoring of the person, probably while they were detained.

But anyway, there's still the question of deterrence, which is not the same as retribution. If others see you can murder with no penalty, that may increase crime.
Seems bit petty dragging Arianne here.

Music publications are still very important in curation. Sure, you don't need to put money down on a record before listening to it anymore, but just because we have a universe of music available to us through streaming doesn't mean that all of those options are good. Albums are usually at least 35 or 40 minutes, and there are far more albums being released than movies, so it's still impossible to listen to them all.

The Quietus in particular focuses on highlighting artists far outside the mainstream that people might not otherwise notice amidst the sea of new releases on Spotify. We might not need reviewers to cover the new Drake album, but what about Horse Lords? Decius? There's a slim-to-0% chance I would know about these artists were it not for The Quietus. That said, I agree that print is a tough business to be in these days, insofar as every independent publication has it tough.

I don't understand the comparison to a reaction video on youtube, since you even acknowledge that it has a different purpose. A better point of comparison would have been Anthony Fantano, since he does video reviews, but honestly if he published transcripts of his videos I'd probably prefer to read them.
I don't believe in the death penalty because I believe taking a human life, no matter the context, is amoral. A murderer may have already committed that injustice, but it does not mean they deserve the same. To me there is no imbalance in empathy just an alignment with that core belief.

> So presumably any definition should be compatible with our existing concepts.

Yes, this is the wrong way (IMO) to think about it. The right way is to notice that it is a definition, and to think about it like every other definition. It has the name "same size", because it has some properties common with "same size" of finite cardinalities, but not all properties common.

And this is the proper way to think about every other definitions and objects as well, even if they are technical terms, or borrowed from common English. (BTW I believe that rings are called rings, because of some similarities with rings.)

Blender is definitely the weapon of choice. Substance 3D is almost required nowadays for proprietary rendering, and the occasional Autodesk+VRAY combo for older established clients.

Edit: On the coding side, python is great for pipelines (especially now that blender has its own module). Imagemagick is great for formatting textures and huge .tiff files. ffmpeg is the king of video formatting.

The death penalty isn't common at all. I'm seeing 18 individuals for 2022 and also that 2022 was the eighth consecutive year with less than 30 individuals served the death penalty. I'm finding it hard to believe that many mistakes were made with that few number of individuals (the data was kinda tough to find so I welcome better data if anyone has it).

A Sunday issue of a broadsheet arguably fits the bill. A normal newspaper and 4x the volume in additional supplements with lightweight content about travel, housing and movies to wrap ads around, sometimes with an insert or two entirely produced by a sponsor. Of course, they started off with news and diversified into lots of sub-papers that pay bills rather than the other way round and their travel listicles are marginally more highbrow than Buzzfeed and there's an argument the format is slowly dying, but the basic concept is the same. Same goes with the commercially successful online version of the UK's Daily Mail having a huge amount of online-only lightweight celebrity content in a clickbait sidebar sitting alongside its more right–wing campaigning style reporting

Then you have the opposite problem. Customers are shy about giving out their bank routing info if large transactions aren't reversible. You don't want it withdrawing against the full balance of your bank account.

It has to be something that puts a reasonable amount of the risk on the user, rather than either none or an unlimited amount.

Can't emphasize more on how much rigorous engineering practice could accelerate research delivery. It is THE key to have a productive research oriented team.

Good research engineers are underrated, and very difficult to find.
You're right that this is a huge problem with modem OS/software that's constantly phoning home, and people would be wise to avoid using those programs/operating systems when using a VPN to hide their identity. but many VPNs offer plausible deniability by assigning many people the same IP.

A request to MS asking for who had a given IP address at a certain time could return multiple devices in different countries/states/cities. Narrows things down significantly, but not always a dead give away.
I am aware. Nonetheless, calling taking 19th an "easy drive south" is ridiculous.
That's already the case. You can legally import a modern kei car if you can modify it to meet relevant safety and emissions standards. You can import any modern car. I imported a 2001 BMW from Canada a few years back and it was a breeze because it already had the EPA stickers and BMW NA signed off on the safety stuff. You can import a non-compliant car (e.g. some carburetted kei car with minimal safety equipment) if you bring it up to the US standards that were in effect at the time. Nobody wants to bother does not mean that nobody can.

The 25 (well I think DOT is 20 years and EPA is 25 or vice versa) means you can import shit without it having to meet relevant federal standards. States (e.g. California) will still want to see proof it doesn't pollute too much, and CARB tests are expensive. Sates like Washington will let you register pretty much anything with wheels which is how you see a lot of non-US. market cars for sale out here with Washington plates.
Wow that's pretty misleading

There's also a lot of bullshit encoded in the ways of the past. Just because you like one of them doesn't make it good for the society.

And talking about "moral decay" (as if morality was some objective set of rules that society can either follow or not follow, and not a huge continuum of various moral standards of both individuals and societies) makes me quite sure that you're speaking from sentiment, rather than from reason.
"It feels right to me, therefore it is right" is not a good argument for convincing anyone of anything.

I agree that it's very hard to measure this sort of thing. There are way too many (constantly changing) factors that affect the crime rate, that it's almost impossible to isolate a single cause and measure its effect.
However, that should only motivate us to approach the problem even more rigorously, rather than to resort to subjective heuristics.

The four chip system you are thinking of was the Logik, Objekt, Numerik, and Klock chips that made up Rekursiv [1]. There was some crazy backstory to it that I read up on a few years ago, which I no longer remember, but I do remember it was outlandish.

> Jeff Dean is clearly one of the greatest software developers/engineers ever

Based on what? I've heard all the Chuck Norris type jokes, but what has Jeff Dean actually accomplished that is so legendary as a software developer (or as a leader) ?

Per his Google bio/CV his main claims to fame seem to have been work on large scale infrastructure projects such as BigTable, MapReduce, Protobuf and TensorFlow, which seem more like solid engineering accomplishments rather than the stuff of legend.

https://research.google/people/jeff/

Seems like he's perhaps being rewarded with the title of "Chief Scientist" rather than necessarily suited to it, but I guess that depends on what Sundar is expecting out of him.
Does it sound fairly robotic/static-y to anyone else or just me? Doesn't sound any better than any other TTS software I've tried and in fact sounds a bit worse, like it's noisy.

I would wager that a good part of that is just a reaction to the over-the-top "massive success!" posts.
I haven't tried Debian in a decade or so, in fairness, but it used to be the case that -

a) ubuntu had newer packages

b) ubuntu had a much nicer installer

c) ubuntu had nice defaults/polish on the ui and fonts

Maybe Debian has changed since, but that's why I'd been hesitant to install it in the past.

Yeah, the u.s market does not really support this variety of form factors and motor cars but I think EVs are going to change that because it's a lot easier to vary the size of a battery, the main primary component of an EV vehicle and just slap on any of a range of electric motors.
I believe the point is that older vehicles are exempt from newer rules, regardless of where they are from. Is why I can legally drive my 2000 truck, despite it almost certainly being less than up to current standards.

I think there is a reasonable logic that scrapping the truck would probably be pretty bad for the environment, such that some of the standards are "water under the bridge", as it were. The rest of the logic almost certainly falls on the numbers just not mattering? I don't know.
The 25-year import rule here, which bans Americans from importing vehicles
from other countries unless they're 25+ years old

That's not what the rule is. That's the end result because nobody wants to spend money to get a foreign market car to meet the relevant safety and emissions standards.

IMO it's better to just use TypeScript anywhere that you'd normally use Perl. The type safety helps later on when you revisit old code plus I think it's more productive overall, having used Perl many times in the past.
I can't seem to convince myself to use Perl anymore for serious applications, but I do still whip it out occasionally for essentially the "shell scripts with sane control flow" use case.

IMO it is still mostly unmatched in that area. Most other languages, while just as capable, require far more line noise to interact with streams and use regexes. I admit though I have studiously avoided learning awk and sed over the years.
I got the name wrong; officially it was Digital's Western Research Lab [1], hence colloquially "Western Digital".

I would much, much rather have a new $70k Ford F150 Raptor than a tiny Japanese truck . Honestly a redditor - perhaps the most odious group on the Iternet - recommending the tiny Japanese truck over the F150 is a good enough reason to prefer the opposite; a redditor on "fuckcars" is a GREAT reason to prefer the opposite.

It didn't start to lose control because the engines. It tried to do a stage separation flip and the stage didn't separate. Only then was it doing something that might have been out of control, or maybe it was trying to do the seperation again.

Control can be maintained with very few engine. I depends if its center engines or outer ring. Only the central cluster can gamble, 2 or 3 of those should be able to handle to rocket depending how full it is.

With only outer engines the could use differential thrust but the rocket isn't really designed to do that.

The Soviet N1 used differential thrust only. SpaceX prefers gimbled engines.

Beyond the obvious 3 (toxic people, false promises, value system misalignment), here are 3 signals that made me leave quickly (stack ranked):

#1 Your boss doesn't inspire you _every day_: I don't mean this metaphorically. In the first year, almost every day you must be like "holy molly, I am so lucky to be working with this person. I'm gonna learn so much from him/her/them."

#2: You are the smartest person in your team: I always tell people: "if you are on top of mountain then you are probably on a bunny hill. Go find a real mountain." You need people who pull you up, while you grow them in other ways. So there must be something about the people around you where you are like "I wish I had that. I must learn how he/she/they do this."

#3: Company focusing on the wrong things: Too much tactics, too much strategy, too much product, too much engineering. Most of these symptoms manifest themselves as products/features that don't align with where you think the world is headed.

Now for what I would have done differently:

For #1 and #2: I must say that I have been so fortunate to work with some really really inspiring reports, peers and supervisors. In the one odd case where it didn't pan out that way, I wish I had spent a little bit more time with the person I was gonna work and the team I was gonna work with, before I accepted the offer.

For #3: This one is easy. You can literally spend half a day reading up on the company, their products, and the general domain to figure out whether this one is worth your time or not. What's wrong internally that makes them ship the wrong things isn't important for your decision any way.

None of the above signals are a disaster in big companies as you can always look for a different team which checks these marks. But if you are going to a startup or an early stage company then it's better to rip the chord quickly.
Twingate definitely supports complex enterprise use cases for sure but I'll say that somehow it manages to remain super simple to deploy, configure and maintain. I've even got my family on it (let's just say they aren't exactly the most technical folks ever..) so they can access our family photos and other stuff I host at my house (they all live abroad).
One thing a CEO can always do: reorganize.

Combine two departments that were separate: "This will improve our focus."

Two years later, separate them again: "This will improve our focus."
You need to rethink the incentives. Big, wasteful cars have no business being as cheap as a small family car. This was not accidental.

I'm originally from Philly, and I've had a cheesesteak on banh mi roll a few times. It makes a very good approximation at least to me. The Philly rolls tend to be tougher and ready to handy the sheer amount of grease that pours off the sandwich. Stick to provolone and caramelized onions as the only default toppings. Ketchup and such should be added by the eater, and realistically only if it's a bad steak.
Clearly you've never maintained a large codebase with dependencies.
I'd love a Maverick for a weekend automobile for things like going to the countryside for the day, hiking, and picking things up at Home Depot, etc. for the money it seems like a pretty cool thing. I hope to buy a used one in a couple years.

For a bit of fun, I'd recommend starting off with an ugly bash script when you just want to hackily and happily get something done, then asking chatgpt to convert it to another language(go? perl? ruby?) It is interesting to see the trade-offs.
I 100% agree that customers have nothing against micro payments. I don't think the reason we don't typically encounter them is banks having bad systems.

Micro payments have no room for refunds.
Without any system to refund bad purchases, fraudulent actors will run wild.
By their nature, small transfers don't produce large value, of their small value is offset by relatively larger chance of being scammed, what's the point?
I’m sure the author will still feel the same way in a month.
On the other hand if you browse around the web you will find various implementations of dirbuster, probably in C for sure in C++ which are multi-threaded , it’s not to take away from your experience but I mean, without knowing what’s in the training set it may have already been exposed to what you asked for, even several times over.

I have a feeling they had access to a lot of code on GH, who knows how much code they actually accessed. Copilot for a long time said it would use your code as training data, including context, if you didn’t opt out explicitly, so that’s already millions maybe hundreds of millions of lines of code scraped.

The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if MS just didn’t provide access to public and private code to train on, they wouldn’t have even told Open AI, just said, “here’s some nice data”, it’s all secret and we can’t see the models inputs so I’ll leave it at that. I mean they’ve obviously prepared the data for copilot, so it was there waiting to be trained on.

So yeah I feel your enthusiasm but if you think about it a little more, or maybe not so hard to imagine what you saw being actually rather simple ? Every time I write code I feel kind of depressed because I know almost certainly someone has already written the same thing and that it’s sitting in GitHub or somewhere else and I’m wasting my time.

ChatGPT just takes away the knowing where to find something (it’s already seen almost everything the average person can think of) you want and gives it to you directly. Have you never thought of this already ? Like you knew all the code you wanted already was there somewhere, but you just didn’t have an interface to get to it? I’ve thought about this for quite a while and I knew there would big data people doing experiments who could see that probably 80-90% of code on GitHub is pretty much identical.

Nothing is magic, right ?
