Not the person you responded to, but I did just get back on Adderall after being unmedicated for the last 8 years.

The end of day crash was much worse without Adderall. I felt like I was trying to swim against a current all day long, and then I'd feel like I was drowning for the rest of the day (though the drowning sensation would usually start after just 2-3 hours of work). With Adderall I'm swimming with the current, or at least in still water. I don't feel like I'm drowning at the end of the day and I actually have energy for other things
How is a game running at 144 FPS more "fun" than one running at 60 FPS?

It already is, there's a market for game skins, for example for CSGO. Don't see anything else on the horizon.
>It is useful to have someone defend things which are distasteful but not illegal.

I'm sorry, providing a space for pedophiles to find each other and share content to build community is not 'useful'.

> When we snuff out a particular bit of speech we should have to think about it, however br

Reddit is not the government. They can't "snuff out" speech. They have no social responsibility to provide a community space to pedophiles.
Are WebGPU "libraries" at a point where instead of being recommended Python + PyTorch for neural network training (then exporting the model to ONNX and turning around and loading it and using it)? If not, how far? I've had trouble understanding why the PyTorch "GPU" (CUDA, MPS, etc.) code can't convert to WASM + WebGPU. Something has to be missing/it has to be a huge effort, but in theory you're supposed to be able to do GPU calculation with WebGPU, right?

Seems like the ecosystem is very early/non-existent.
You know, maybe we can do both.

Individual tutoring plus mastery (which Khan already has) outperforms classrooms by 2 sigma. Coming up with ways that we can individualize education which we can afford (since we're not going to buy individual tutorial education for every child) would be huge.

Next year, I'm helping a group of ELA teachers use GPT4 to provide each student with individualized writing feedback. We have a relatively low student to teacher ratio, but still we can only provide this kind of depth 3-4 times per year, and now we're going to get it a couple times more.

And in the microeconomics class I taught, I enjoyed the efficiency and educational aspects of having about a quarter of my assignments be on Khan. Exercises are self-grading; students get immediate feedback; and if students need extra help, it's there... with Sal Khan explaining things radically different from how I did.

(I like my explanations better, but anyone who didn't click with things my way had a chance to try something different).
The thing is, I just don't get it. Management treat the decisions like they don't have consequences, always getting stuck on local minima. If the plans had a vision with logical steps A --> B --> C where they would build and enhance on each other, we could make a great product. Why they seem incapable of stringing together a chain of priorities that actually make sense (synergy) I have concluded, is that they don't really use or care about the product we make. Otherwise their priorities would make more sense. They only manage to care about the balance sheet, which is good too I guess, but it does not make the greatest product...
Are there no controls to walk around?

When I was undergoing chemotherapy to treat Hodgkin's lymphoma, I tried to keep up some exercise but it was just too difficult. I ended up needing to take a drug to boost my white blood cell production so that treatment could continue. White blood cells are produced in your bones and this drug made it feel like every bone in your body was broken. It was awful.

Had I known this at the time, I probably would've forced myself to ride my indoor stationary bike every day if it would've helped avoid that immune booster drug.
I don't think there is something like good faith and failing to pay payroll. As an entrepreneur I have failed before and never have I considered payroll money as something I can use for other purposes.

Go for it, sue and put in jail whoever owes you payroll money. Jail is a very good motivator to pay what's owed.

Do not take this loss. You should if you are a founder and decided not to take salary, but as an employee this is unacceptable. That money is yours.
The best advice I can give you is to think of toxic people much like you'd think of a new organism you'd like to study. You'll quickly learn why they are toxic, and the types of things you can do and say to deal with them. This, in turn, allows you to leverage or diffuse them.

Mystery of Vital Cell Protein Solved After 30 Years (1998)
I remember those surveys. I did so much meth.
Way late to this, but to me this ultimately comes down to:

"How do we handle the negative externalities that access to the worlds information at our fingertips has caused?"

In theory parents are responsible for general outcomes of their children.

However, do you expect non-tech, and realistically, non security/networking people to have the toolset to understand how to set up their networks and their devices to block access to this content? It's already a hard problem to solve in enterprise, or at least non Gov/Defense enterprises (hello Bluecoat?).

A company has no incentive to block users from their content like this unless their is a negative effect from letting someone view it who shouldn't. They say "you're the parent block it". It's almost as if a child walked into a bar and said "give me a beer" and the bartender did. Then didn't get in trouble because "the parent should have stopped it".
ChatGPT is not a lawyer and this is not good advice. Generally threatening to sue will almost never serve your interests.
In the transition, traditional LLVM IR isn’t being left behind. It’s simply a later step in the compilation process. All MLIR is (eventually) translated through LLLVM IR before machine code.
The list only includes "bank"s, that are federally-regulated entities. The biggest provider of banking services in Quebec is Desjardins, but it doesn't appear in the list because technically it's not a bank and it is regulated provincially not federally. Also depending on how you want to count it, Desjardins is either one entity or an ensemble of 210 credit unions. Similarly, ATB gets an honourable mention, but other non-bank providers of banking services such as First Calgary Financial or Vancity (both credit unions) are not shown in the list.

It's interesting that in the US, even small banking service provides are banks. But in Canada, small ones tend to be provincially regulated entities such as credit unions. It's not that small entities don't exist. They just belong to a different list.
A lot of people either seem to not understand that science is focused on testable models of phenomenon and not the actual phenomenon itself, or they refuse to believe any such meaningful distinction exists.
There are a lot of wireless communication improvements related to WiFi and 5G. I think this opens a lot of doors, especially around low power apps.

Also, somewhat related: secure anonymous data exchange has a lot of cool possible applications beyond health exposure tracking.
> 1. The houses are being sold, not rented.

That's not at all what the article says, here is a direct quote from it (emphasis mine):

"So a growing number of employers around the country have decided to build their own housing for workers, _mostly for them to rent_ but sometimes to buy."

I would hope it's extremely obvious the major problem there is with linking your housing (through renting) to your employment. It's the 'company town' problem all over where workers can be exploited with the constant threat of homelessness if they're terminated.
Minor point that you also have the non-profit Blues (i.e. Blue Cross Blue Shield) in the US health insurance marketplace, who are literally obligated to return healthcare savings to customers in the form of rates.

They have their own problems, but profit-mongering is not one of them.
Excellent explanation, thanks.

That seems to translate well to my layman intuition. Would there actually be a health benefit with respect to cancer (or pathogenic disease) from this "T cell migration"? Is there a sense in which migration of T cells spread information to different parts of the body or is this just not how it works?

Maybe the main lock-in is in drivers for proprietary hardware. Platform software like bare bones Linux / Android and Firefox is probably not the root of the lock-in.

If so, maybe it's better to think of two devices: trusted device, and fancy device.

The trusted device is a simple, low power and cheap device, maybe without even a camera. Just touchscreen, wi-fi and mobile internet. Fully open drivers, and hardware spec. Running bare bones Linux / Android, Firefox. Easy to root and reinstall the full software stack. There can be an open specification for at, as a "basic comp / comm device": 1 GB memory, CPU of certain performance, etc.

The fancy device is a cutting edge proprietary flagman device. Great power, but risk of tracking.

Every user can have both types of devices.
You are right and its actually possible since post history is public and some subs have gone further by making it impossible to participate if you had commented on the_donald. This method can trivially lead to collateral damage insofar as people may comment or even subscribe in order to needle and torment Trump supporters especially around 2020.

A more through approach might to be to analyze the sentiment or at least the score of comments or even go further and analyze the mix of comments and sentiments to decide if someone is an undesirable.

>They make you less money.

No, they make you precisely as much money as they were ever going to, with the rates fixed at issue. That some other investment strategy turns out after the fact to have been a better option doesn't change that.
Once I had a bastard trying to get away with my salary after quitting the company. Contact a lawyer, this is super easy to win.
Well as coding is going away. Perhaps just show them how to login to ChatGPT and how to engineer a prompt to code. Oh an how to write requirements documents and manage an Outlook calendar. :)

In more seriousness, from personal experience, I’ve found is that when talking with younger children things need to be highly visual and interactive to keep attention.

The changing font idea is good.

An extension of that might be showing Scratch in real time and making changes or perhaps an Arduino and some LEDs.
I believe the actual reason old IBM mainframe OSes is that computer programs originally weren't copyrightable. When the law was changed to make them copyrightable, this wasn't retroactive.
Same for me and my account is >5 years old and never had any problems.
you act as if reverse engineering is easy. I guarantee you its not, especially something like edge is a rats nest of packages, assemblies, 3rd party components, config files, all neatly bundled in something unreadable for security reasons.

Browsers are hard to reverse engineer
* a refridgerator that works (mine is currently broken, for example)

Other than eggs, and this is in the US not all countries, you don't need a refrigerator for the listed items. Beans, rice, and oats do not require refrigeration. Many fruits and vegetables also don't need refrigeration [0].

* a willingness to accept the cost of losing a lot of food when the fridge inevitably breaks

This is mitigated by learning what does and does not need to be refrigerated and storing things properly.

I think he also missed the fact that Windows NT came from VMS, not unix. The article needed an editor for sure.

I think your point rings true, there are always these platform wars. But there is much more ease of interoperability now. Even reading a 5.25" disk on a different system was sometimes impossible, lots of things like that. Keyboards and monitors had different connectors.

When Apple went to USB it was like a miracle. Circa.. 1995? Maybe with the iMac.
Physical servers (or devices) are next, obviously!

IT is cyclical.

JSDeliver apparently hired a law firm to specifically advise on their situation and apparently the conclusion was it is still safe to use. More detail: https://www.jsdelivr.com/blog/how-the-german-courts-ruling-o...

Additional edit. If jsdelivr is illegal in Germany, it’s going to come as quite a surprise to many prominent sites: https://trends.builtwith.com/websitelist/jsDelivr/Germany

I know nothing more than I’ve found with a few minutes of web searching, but what I have found makes me skeptical of the OPs conclusions.
Webmasters are not giving their users' browser histories to jsdelivr. Instead, their users have configured their browsers to load 3rd party content.
The answer to your question is prices would go down until the yield on the bonds equals the market rate.

Separate nerd note: I think you mean maturity not duration.

The maturity of a bond is the point in the future when holders get back the principal.

The duration of a bond is pretty much the first derivative of price with respect to rates expressed in years. Intuitively it's the number of years (on average) an investor in that bond would need to remain invested for the future value of cashflows from the bond to be equal to their investment in the bond.

This is only true to a point. When I was cycling 20 miles 5x per week, I literally couldn't eat enough to avoid losing weight. (This was not a problem, I've never been thin.)
Why is anyone paying attention to this guy? I have yet to see evidence he's done anything meaningful any time recently other than promote himself and crypto grifts. Is it just because his name is attached to a16z and Coinbase (which will inevitably be shut down for enabling trading in unregistered securities)?
This is the final nail in the coffin for "Julia as a replacement for Python" in my eyes. Maybe I'm very late to that conclusion, maybe the writing's been on the wall for a while, but I still held out hope that Julia could be at least a parallel peer to Python sharing the market.

But now, it seems almost certain that Julia will end up a possible replacement-for-Matlab niche language, unknown and unused by most outside the niche. It's a pretty big and important niche, to be sure, but a bit disappointing given how nice the language is.
> Yes, you can get compromised through firmware updates.

It's not just about updates through regular channels but about evil maid attacks with signed malicious firmware. This vector would be avoidable if you could sever the trust relationship.

Another wrinkle is that some of the blobs are encrypted (e.g. ME), so they can't even be audited.

Currently too much of the trust chain relies on untrustworthy components. So you can't trust the system. But the DRM vendor can well enough for their purposes. Which makes them a negative.

> I.e., I'm objecting to this focus on TPM in TFA and this discussion because a voltage fault injection vulnerability in the SP is fatal to security regardless of TPM usage/non-usage.

Yes, agreed.
Well, I'm sure some of them are signalling to people who pay them, too. But I think it goes well beyond people who are paid. They're telling the world "This is what it means to be a [republican/democrat/etc.], and if you aren't like that yourself, you're with the enemy!". It's like an ultimatum to commit.
Everything I learned about any contemporary monarchy, about soccer and supercars, I learned against my will. Every word of that information was violated into my brain. Use RSS, if malicious content still appears filter it out by keywords.
The GDPR laws have brought so much complexity. I'm currently navigating this for my current EU startup.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for privacy, I agree these laws are needed and that privacy is a fundamental human right.

But there are so many nuances and technicalities. The GDPR is clearly making things more difficult for small companies that cannot afford a team of lawyers.

GDPR is also putting EU companies at a disadvantage vs companies from the US. I'm aware GDPR laws apply to any company from any country handling personal data from EU citizens... but realistically the EU will probably not chase down small companies from other countries.
At my doorslam job, they hired a Director of Engineering Architecture or whatever title. He had a strong background in security, they said. Yeah well turns out his background was he led the offshore team that built an anti-virus company's .mobi website for 9 years. 1st hour of 1st day, he clicked the anti-phishing test "Click here to update your drivers" phishing email.
By the way the PDP-6 (and thus its dependent the PDP-10) was explicitly designed to be a "Lisp machine" -- a machine word was a cons and many fundamental lisp operations like car and cdr were single machine instructions.

It’s so hard to get a complete environment up and running. I had a 700-level project that was ripe for MLIR, and I just couldn’t figure out all the tools. I ended up managing with just clang.

Much of MLIR requires compiling from source, from what I can tell, and I just could’ve figure out exactly what to build so that I had access to all of the tool chain from clang to MLIR.
> I imagine Mozilla's thinking there was that they should position the feature so that people who already use Pocket will realize that Firefox isn't adding a separate reading list (like the Safari one nobody uses), but rather that you can just sign into your existing Pocket account in Firefox, and see your existing Pocket reading-list.

That was pretty much how it was viewed at the time (I worked at Mozilla during the Pocket acquisition). It was seen as, "we were going to build our own reading list, but let's just buy this instead and integrate it as /the/ reading list for Firefox."

I agree that the external perception was different, and remains so to this day.

Yeah, that's how indentured servitude works. The employer finances your purchases, then you owe the company.

> if they sell within 3 years of buying, the company has the option to buy the house back at the previous sale cost, and for four years after that, the company has ROFR at market price.

What if the company fires the employee after 2.5 years? The buyer could be seriously underwater. Heck, depending on the housing market, the buyer could be underwater even after 3 years.
> The fact that only recently have they discovered, hey, we had this pretty good email client that we let all but die off.

... You think Mozilla don't focus enough on Firefox, so you think they should spend more money on Thunderbird, which is an app in an almost-nonexistent market (desktop email)?

Some folks are just never happy with Mozilla.

Firefox has massively improved in recent years. WebExtensions being async prevented horrific freezes that used to happen. Rewriting components in Rust, and using web assembly for native libs, are both good for security. And WebRender was revolutionary.

I'm not that surprised... They're not just trendy, but hardware wise pretty nice in terms of quality, appearance and battery life. I don't use it much, but my M1 Air that I got for personal use generally makes it through a week of use on road trips without needing to recharge. Hour or two of email/reading a day, about 60% brightness.

I think MacOS feels a bit old at this point, but the hardware is pretty nice for what's on offer in the mobile space. I may well go framework for my next laptop in a few years though.
How about Ford, in Dearborn MI? They were really into controlling their workers' behavior outside of work. If Ring had existed in Henry Ford's time, he would have had surveillance cameras in every home, reporting to Ford's internal sociology department.

I doubt you can go to jail for failing to pay money to another person or entity, except in very specific cases.
It because a lot of people are already struggling with the cost of housing. It's hard to tell people they should be worried about this company exploiting them, when their only other option is to pay someone else even more money to keep a roof over their head.
