> The article is basically trying to turn them into urban areas rather than suburbs.

That was not my take away. Why do you say this and how do you define an urban area yourself?

My take away was zoning and minimum parking make for inflexible and sparse zoning. Essentially, allow townhomes to have one parking instead of two, allow duplexes, allow a backyard cottage on that 4 acre lot that can be rented. Or, allow some commercial, a small grocery store at the entrance to that sprawling subdivision. IMO there us a large gap between the (relatively) very low density of suburbs and urban. Accotding to the article zoning laws and minimum parking laws require this and are key items to change. Those laws are needlessly inflexible and wind up creating unsustainable environments (eg: tax revenue does not support the road upkeep, per zoning restriction nearest grocery is many miles away, etc..)
It's funny how when Jony Ive and Steve Jobs were at the helm, Apple users always said performance wasn't everything and what truly matters is the complete package. Nowadays, it has flipped. The company's competitive advantage is their best in class chips. Every year I try high-end Windows laptops and Android phones and they are great to use but their performance aren't up to par and I always go back to Apple.
If you are in the process of starting a design system, you will likely encounter familiar questions such as: what is the value of a design system? What benefits does it bring? Why should we invest in one?
Although design systems can vary in their maturity, size, and complexity, presenting key data and insights can be helpful in convincing management of the necessity of a design system. To assist with this, we gathered a range of resources to help you demonstrate the value and benefits of a design system for your company.
Why do you think copyright is ethical?

I certainly wouldn’t steal food from a store as that deprives the store of food. That seems cut and dry.

If I could photograph food and turn it into food to feed myself, I would certainly do that, even if it was illegal. It doesn’t deprive the owner of anything.

There’s lots of injustice in the world. And I think IP leans more towards unjust than just. Do I think creators should be compensated? Yes. Do I think creators’ descendents should be compensated for 90 years? Probably not.

I think copyright is designed and biased toward massive corporations to the detriment of society. So I don’t feel bad when I subscribe to HBONow and also “illegally” download torrents so it’s easier for loved ones to watch.

I also feel like there’s a giant PR effort from wealthy entities against a few individuals and the fact that you’d equate downloading a movie with stealing food is so weird to me that it shows how distorted the discussion is.

So we need some distinction between essential rights that seem real to me (bill of rights stuff) and “rights” that only exist because of successful lobbying on behalf of a very tiny industry (content industry is only like $100-200B globally where agriculture is $1.2T in the US alone).
>why push people into this when the outcome for them will likely be poor?

You have used the word "push" multiple times and I'm not sure what you mean by that. I would frame it as "allow" and not "push" as the motivation at an individual level comes from the individual. The goal should be to remove obstacles that prevent poor people from joining academy. That isn't the same thing as pushing poor people into academia even if the end result is effectively the same at a societal level.

Either way, I simply think the answer to this question is self-evident based on the morals we claim to have as a society. We literally call it the American Dream. The station of one's birth should not eliminate a career like academia.

> Neither side “won” this merger. I think both Brain and DeepMind lose. I expect to see many project cancellations, project mergers, and reallocations of headcount over the next few months, as well as attrition.

This merger will be a big test for Sundar, who has openly admitted years ago to there being major trust issues [1]. Can Sundar maintain the perspective of being the alpha company while bleeding a ton of talent that doesn't actively contribute to tech dominance? Or will he piss off the wrong people internally? It's OK to have a Google Plus / Stadia failure if the team really wanted to do the project. If the team does _not_ want to work together though, and they fail, then Sundar's request that the orgs work together to save the company is going to get totally ignored in the finger-pointing.

>given how many teachers in practice can't tell you whether 3/5 is larger than 2/3

Teaching requirements are NOT standardized at the federal level, and lots of states have decided to just lower standards instead of paying professionals more. If you only hire baby-sitters, don't be surprised when they can't teach simple stuff. In my state, we have high standards for teachers, and every single one, from kindergarten right through high school, from french teacher to cooking to history, could teach a middle school math course.

Your state or municipality cheaping out on your child's education is not the fault of federal regulation, or of a federal curriculum. You'd be whining about the same thing no matter what the national curriculum was, because the problem is that your local governments don't care about education.
It absolutely does matter.

The MTTR for outages caused by physical damage is way higher, and resiliency against physical disasters is a major selling point of availability zones as a fault container.

Hosting every zone of your region (if that's actually the case here) in the same building is simply negligent.

Besides the obvious risks like this incident, even if the zones have physical fire barriers, chances that operators will be allowed in to one "zone" after another has a fire are slim to none.

> I guess someone has demonstrated math that shows it is more profitable in some cases

Don't underestimate how deeply, fundamentally, mind-bogglingly incompetent most decision-makers are at most companies. Not only do these people have no evidence to suggest it's more profitable (long-term, anyway), they literally do not care. The vast majority of decisions made at the vast majority of corporations in the U.S. today are driven by the Principal Agent Problem, made by people who will never be held account for any of their decisions, nor suffer any consequence for any downstream or long-term effects of anything they do. It's all just a game of who can suck the most blood out of the company short-term before finding another host. These virulent parasites will never give a shit about such mundane concepts as "supporting data".
Yeah, XMOS did a similar thing targeting audio (and I guess now AI), where this works brilliantly because sometimes you need very weird interfaces and custom filters, and you also generally need to do tricks to pull tons of performance out of your cores. Parallax attempted to do the same in general-purpose microcontrollers, and I'm not sure they have really come out ahead for it - most of the time you really do just need I2C or SPI, and you have a 100 MHz 32-bit ARM with a full suite of peripherals as your alternative.
Ok, sure. As an AI creator, how do I do that? Does PyTorch or Huggingface have a consciousness library I can use to study this?
That is an interesting argument: increasing rent might make it financially attractive to move in with roommates or family even if you could afford the rental.

I'm confused. The title says parent's income affects career, the start of video says 1/4 of academics have at least one parent holding phd, the end of video says diversity is important because it brings different way of thinking so we need different gender, race, socioeconomic status, country of origin. Feels like many things conflating together.

Anecdotally, most people who are successful in their career are either having parents in the same profession, or have parents providing secure childhood/early adult that allows them brew their career.

Programmer parents, professional music player parents, having access to computer programmer at early age, etc. The first shoulder of giants are from parents, isn't it?

How do you know he was paid to keep all internal details private after he leaves? Do you have knowledge of the employment contract, can you share the relevant language with us?

All he says is his concern about "optics", which has nothing to do with contract.

If Google has a problem with his post, they can go after him, but that's an issue between Google and him, not with you or me or the rest of the internet.

I'm definitely struggling to see what any of this has to do with personal integrity, betrayal, or squeezing personal benefit. To the contrary, it simply seems informative and he's sharing knowledge just to be helpful. Unless I've missed something, I don't see anything revealed that would harm Google or his former teammates here. No leaks of what's coming down the pipeline, no scandals, nothing of the sort.

People are allowed to share opinions of their previous employment and generally describe the broad outlines of their work and where they worked. This isn't a situation of working for the CIA with top-secret clearance.

I don't think it's a good educated guess though, as ChatGPT itself points out the pronoun is supposed to refer to the closest noun, and while it's reasonable to assume that it ignored technically proper grammar in favour of the more likely option, this still doesn't explain why it insisted the sentence wouldn't make sense if we assumed the lawyer was a woman.

Also while it would most likely not directly say that women can't be lawyers, its answer to the correction only makes sense if we are already under the shared assumption that they can't, which I'd argue is no better.

Finally while this type of idiosyncrasies would be fine and arguably desirable if ChatGPT was only a "big statistical model", they have no place in a product with actual practical applications outside of research.

This sounds good, however, I hope they don't try to replicate all of sudo.

If you ask me user-facing performance was always a priority. iPhones always feel snappier than Android to me. Android phones often have a noticeable lag when scrolling, the apps take longer to open, the screen freezes more often.

Even with higher performing chips on some Samsung phones, the iPhone always feels faster.

Most consumers don't care about how performant the chip is, but they do care about visible performance.

> a company has to pay extra

Part of my problem is that Google (and similar companies) are already paying insane (in the best way possible) amounts of money, and when you sign the agreement to take said money, you explicitly promise you won't talk about company internals.

To me this is quite simple: if you accept what winds up being millions of dollars in cash+equity, and you give your word that you'll keep your mouth shut as one of the conditions for that pile of money... then you shut keep your mouth shut.
Beautiful work. We're having some pretty odd winds here in NL right now and the North of France is also seeing eastern winds, very odd for this time of year and the resulting cold snap is going to impact crops in a wide region.

I agree that the OP makes a bunch of interesting points, but I think historically Brain really grew out of what Dean wanted to do and the fact that he wanted it to be full-stack, e.g. including the TPU. Also, crucially, Brain would use Google data and contribute back to Ads/Search directly versus Google X which was supposed to be more of an incubator.

But it's also notable how the perspective of an ex-Brain employee might differ from what sparked the Brain founders in the first place.

Realistically India is going to have a few 100m being uplifted and 1B+ stuck in informal economy / susbsistent agriculture.

I really floundered when Ubuntu 10.04 got to end of life. My personal issue with Gnome 3 was that the way I worked involved one workspace with lots of open PDFs.

Because they all looked similar on a thumbnail, I tended to use their filenames to identify them. The 2D workspace unfortunately shuffled them around as they moved between rows, and it preferred thumbnail over filename.

Basically I needed the 1D taskbar with filenames and that's what worked for me.

I floundered via Unity, Fedora, eventually settling on crunchbang for a while. I tried gnome fallback and flashback but they were deficient.

One day MATE appeared, and I have never appreciated a well-honed DE so much.

I don't get it. As soon as a key database can be exported, that means it can be stolen, doesn't it? How is Passkey so much better than a password manager with a good implementation that it warrants all the added complexity?

BitWarden already uses my TPM to gate access to the password database.

This can be imposed from either the pre-programmed voltages used to support EXPO memory overclocking profiles or when a user manually adjusts the SoC voltages (a common practice to eke out a bit more memory overclocking headroom).

Does that mean, as long as I don't overclock, my Ryzen7 CPU will most likely be a-ok?
I personally believe that racial or diversity quotas are even more racist or sexist. We should expect minorities to develop their own culture of intellectual excellence. After all, they are no longer children. Giving them a shortcut is a form of insult. Providing someone an advantage based on their race or sex at the expense of someone else who is more qualified due to their race or sex is nonsensical. Companies may fail as a result of such practices. Ultimately, what truly matters is how innovative and efficient a company is.

Streaming platforms absolutely know who is watching. Sometimes it's because they have profiles you can set up, but that data can also come from people watching shows on their own phones/tablets/laptops, what shows they watch, and the hours that they watch them.
The catch as stated is slightly worse input latency. You can still win games. It might feel fine to you. But even a practically imperceptible 10-20ms of extra input lag compared to the gamers with their own hardware puts you at an unavoidable statistical disadvantage. You will be 10ms too late with aiming your shots some percentage of the time.
