Oh it was very expensive in the last job I worked. You needed to redo everything we got back from the cheap labor there.

I automated most jobs that I was told to send there. Since due to the quality issues only the busy jobs were sent there that are faster to automate and higher quality, too.

After a few months my boss came to me and told me I need to use the outsourced staff more, since they have nothing to do.

No dispute on crediting Meta for LLaMa itself.

I dispute crediting Meta for the widespread interest in LLMs. IMO, that would be Google (for Transformers, BERT), OpenAI (for GPT-2, GPT-3). BERT and GPT-2 were released under Apache 2.0 and MIT licenses respectively and precede the release of LLaMa.

Of course, we can credit ChatGPT for bringing it to the forefront of public consciousness.

And none of this takes away from Meta's work on LLaMa. I had said as much in my original comment.

Are you sure you're not letting your moral compass be guided by what is legal? Like, if you came at this from purely moral grounds, with no knowledge of the law or past cases, would you make the same decisions as the FDA? No deviations?

But more to the point, your hypothetical bad person is guided "purely" by the law, but you haven't given evidence that this actual neurosurgeon is guided "purely" by the law. He said he wants to do "some" experiments that aren't allowed. That doesn't mean he wants to go hog-wild.

I think what hurts here are how the fees are structured. If I charge client $100, the invoice will show this number. This will also be the income I’ll be reporting to tax authorities, so I have to pay income tax on $100, and an Upwork fee will be automatically deducted. I don’t know if they would have a legal way to do this but I would much rather my invoice showed $90 in this case since I never even had the chance to see the full $100.

For "large projects" there are merits to microservices, but large projects are the exception - most projects aren't large. Unfortunately, a few years ago the consensus seemed to be that microservices should be applied to every project size, because they were always better - which generated so many problems.

The simplified view I hold is this: if your main problem isn't a lack of engineers, but how to split work between hundreds, or even thousands of engineers, then microservices make a lot of sense; that's true at FAANG and some other companies. If your main problem is how to get the maximum out of a limited number of engineers you can afford to hire, then microservices is not the solution. The latter is by far the most common case.
Perhaps some people find monosyllabic words embarrassing. Another word sometimes misused instead of "use" is "leverage", and you'll often find "ubiquitous" in the same paragraph in engineering/marketing contexts. But "leverage" should not always be replaced with "use": sometimes "exploit" would be a better alternative. And "leverage" has a proper meaning in finance, of course.

> rely heavily on Java libraries

If you're referring to the storage engines, those are not Java, and even then, most storage engines of a database will resort to a lower level language because of the need to care about memory layout and things that are simply not exposed to you in a high-level language like Clojure (or Java, unless you are somehow able to use Jikes RVM in production, I guess, but I'm not aware of ANYONE using a Java storage engine atop Jikes)

There are tools for enforcing boundaries.

One name for this is "Modulith" where you use modules that have a clear enforced boundary. You get the same composability as micro-services without the complexity.

Here's how Spring solves it: https://www.baeldung.com/spring-modulith

It's basically a library that ensures strict boundaries. Communication has to go through an interface (similar to service api) and you are not allowed to leak internal logic such as database entities to the outer layer

If you later decide to convert the module into a separate service, you simply move the module to a new service and write a small API layer that uses the same interface. No other code changes are necessary.

This enables you to start with a single service (modulith) and split into microservices later if you see the need for it without any major refactoring

I'm curious if that's mainly specific to English. As an Arabic speaker, tremendous care and effort has been taken to preserve Fuṣḥā (formal/High) Arabic throughout the centuries. Language and conjugation that sounds wrong is often shunned or mocked, even though it may partially be spoken in day to day speech in certain contexts. However, the distinction is always there, and such language will not be accepted in official discourse, let alone avenues like poetry and literature.

All this to say, runtime metaprogramming doesn't seem inherently more capable compared to what's possible in the more “static compiler” languages; rather, it seems like an escape hatch for when you can't generate the code you want at compile time.

It's by definition more powerful though, in that the runtime language is (hopefully) more powerful than the type description language.

I'm not arguing that it isn't preferable to produce (de)serialisation code statically. Just that by definition it's more capable as it can do everything the runtime can.

> But one, France is still one of the most racist country in the west. Especially for north-africans (even if I'm also Canadian). The US is much more inclusive and less racist, and even fundamentalist christians are usually pretty nice even when I say I'm Muslim. Much more of a live and let live attitude compared to France

I don't know what you're basing this on, but I don't have the same perception.

In the US, there is an obsession with categorising people based on their skin colour and religion. Politicians talk about "people of skin colour X" as some homogeneous group that is all the same (we need to win the Latino vote so we'll say this and that). The financial and healthcare systems literally take into account your skin colour.

In France, people generally don't give a shit. It's illegal to categorise people by skin colour and religion, and it's illegal for your employer to ask about it. They can't discriminate based on anything like it, and it's taken seriously (not "oh just have money to sue" seriously, report them and they'll be in massive trouble seriously). In France, everyone naturalised is 100% French. There are tons of North African (Maghreb) descendants, including many muslims, and also lots of people from other parts of Africa, and South America, Asia, Europe. 1 in 4 French people has immigrant origins. Oh and also, the majority of France's population is not religious, which everyone is very accepting of alongside the religions. In the US there are states that forbid atheists from holding office ffs.

- small exceptions - populist racist politicians, the main ones of whom have literally been fined for their racist remarks, and mostly old folks who believe them. Once in the bus in Paris an old man said something vaguely racist (of course it's one like her, refering to a woman of African descent speaking loudly on the phone), and was loudly and agressively criticised by multiple other passengers. Not saying it happens generally, but most people are very open and don't care about others' religion/skin colour/origins.

If language legitimately changes so a sentence or phrase has two opposite yet universally used meanings, (presumably resolved in each instance by context), it would still be better writing to avoid it when clarity of meaning is paramount.

Encyclopedias are a good place to make as few assumptions and gambles as possible with regard to how a reader might comprehend what is written.

Tesla's advanced-driving systems (AP and FSD) lead the world in terms of deaths. It's not even close: Tesla has more fatalities than every other advanced-driving system in the world, combined.

Even massaging the data in the light most favorable for Tesla, a Tesla is still 3x more likely to be in an accident resulting in injuries than the next worst advanced-driving system, and is more than 50x more likely to be in an accident causing injuries than Toyota's or GM's advanced driving systems.

A 2-3% improvement still means that Tesla is the most dangerous advanced driving system on the roads.
That's oversight
you are still entirely making up an assumption for what the human testing is and then deciding it is grossly unethical.

>The law changing does not affect the morality of the underlying act. The underlying act is immoral, that is why it is currently banned.

You say it isn't about the law or FDA but ethics. OK, then the ethics depend on the specific act you are performing and it's risk, not the government rules.

You cant have it both ways. You can't claim that anything that differs from current law makes it inherently unethical
I very much agree with these points.

1 & 8: This is something I've experienced first-hand quite a bit. When code quality starts slipping in service, it accelerates and inevitably leads to more hacks built on hacks. The containment afforded by service separation helps keep these hacks quarantined and minimizes the pollution and spread.

6. There's no ambiguity or question of who owns what when services/packages are separated and have distinct owners. Transferring ownership means transferring ownership of the service. In large companies with some teams working on secret projects, it's much easier to have viable workflows with service separation than with a monolith. Permissions management and so many other things are easier.

7: I think this is an excellent point. Another way of looking at this is as having multiple focused monoliths.

I'd also add that there's a benefit in blast radius minimization. Updating a library or merging in a risky change doesn't risk breaking literally everything all at once. One service can update something and you know for a fact that it can't break anything other than that service and its dependents.
> it behooves Mozilla to increase their browser's market share.

i would imagine quite the opposite. Google's funding is implicitly a mechanism for google to _prevent_ firefox from gaining a large enough marketshare to threaten chrome, whilst it remain a "viable alternative" to give to regulators.

It might be that google is on paper paying for search engine traffic, but i think it's plain as day to anyone, that if firefox's market share grows significantly higher than chrome, google would actually stop paying firefox in an attempt to prevent chrome from being dethroned. I think the firefox executives know this - and therefore, never actually attempt to focus firefox's market share but instead, focus on peripheral features.

After all, their lavish pay (despite apparently being below market for the same position elsewhere) depends on google.
> you’ve never made a mistake in your future predictions? youve never committed to something you couldnt deliver?

I think it's worth noting, what incentives are at play here. It's not a neutral mistake: By claiming "free forever" you are heavily frontloading your adoption/marketing and I have to assume you are not just doing that by accident.

So unless, in the worst case, you are ready to fail your company over keeping the promise, just don't ever claim "forever".
I'm just as confused by that. Most people I know who had some goal to earn a degree in music were already able to play any scale on a substantial number of instruments by the time they graduated from high school. Hell, I was in that camp and I didn't even plan on going to college.

Granted, not everyone goes into a music program knowing every instrument, but scales and arpeggios ain't terribly hard to practice, be it on a keyboard or a woodwind or a brass or whatever.
Blue Noise Dithering (2016)
The degree they were studying for led to a job where for many of them the ability to play arpeggios in 24 keys may have been irrelevant. For example, teaching the history of music, or perhaps musical therapy.

When I studied music part of my grade was based on a singing exam. I couldn’t sing, didn’t want to sing, would never need to professionally sing, and have never sung since. Make no mistake- it was scored on the quality of singing. But I couldn’t avoid it being part of the exam system.

Imagine someone studying for a computer science degree majoring in chip design. They cheat in Programming 101 by studying only one Sorting Algorithm, not 24 of them, since they can influence which algorithm they are assigned at exam time. Perhaps there is a better example but you get the drift.

I Fell for a Scam
So here's what happened

I received a text at 4 am telling me that my account balance hadn't been paid (been drinking)

I clicked the link and it was a site of the payroad I regularly drive on

I have also noticed that my paytag hadn't been beeping so it all seemed legit

If you don't pay in 3 days the fine will be $500

I entered my card details and nothing happened. I tried on my phone and nothing happened. Check console and theres 404 errors in the req

Woke up the next day and tried again, noticed that the home button doesn't work, the social media buttons don't work. The site says it's a 200 fine if you don't pay. Holy shit this is a scam website

I look at the console logs and it turns out that scammers sent their xhr requests to //api/card_confirm.php (Double slashes)

Holy shit lads, I am on cloud 9 right now, I almost got scammed but due to a simple typo my data is safe. (They fixed the site shortly after when I sent a test card no). This is the luckiest day of my life lmao
