Recently there was a great episode on the Freakonomics podcast, actually the final episode in a three part series on airline economics. It talks about the history of airline price regulation and the related economics. https://freakonomics.com/podcast/is-your-plane-ticket-too-ex...

> Back when the industry was regulated by the Civil Aeronautics Board, or C.A.B., airlines were not allowed to lower prices to win customers. So they had to find other ways to compete.

> They would compete against each other by adding more flights on the route. Since you couldn’t cut the price, what you would do is say, “We have the most flights.” And that really mattered to business travelers who wanted to be able to, if their meeting ended early, to go to the airport and quickly catch a flight home. So they were competing on frequency, and in other ways in service quality, by offering piano lounges on 747s. And they were gradually driving down the share of seats that were filled by adding more and more flights. And they would eventually get back to the point that they weren’t earning a great rate of return on their investment. So they’d go back to the C.A.B. and they’d say, “We need higher fares.” And the C.A.B. would say, “Yeah, okay, we’ll give you higher fares.” Eventually, in the mid-1970s, people at the C.A.B. figured out that this was just an endless loop, where we were raising fares, and the planes were getting more and more empty, and this was very inefficient. That’s where we had gotten to — pretty empty planes with very high prices.
Asked my cousin, it's a very small village from Nieuwkoop, Nieuwkoop is bigger and is a really small village compared to anything else.

Red lights are still there, according to my cousin.

Nieuwkoop is a village and local authority.
The wealthy got rich at the IPO stage at the expense of the public, much like most tech IPOs.
Yeah, that's fair, but unfortunately it has been a problem at times and also phones are a different world. The default expectation for phones is to be really heavily locked down.

I wish that it wasn't that way.

I'm still not going to bash the one major company that consistently comes the closest to being as open as I'd want. I'd love it to be better, but I also understand the real and legitimate reasons that it doesn't work out that way.

Try to put those concerns in direct conflict with openness and the outcome is likely to be the worst possible.
Looks like an excellent resource - thanks!
So you want a system that figures out that the vast majority of function and method calls are not overridden, that these variables and fields are in practice always integers, etc.; generates some nice compiled code, and adds some interlock so that, if these assumptions do change, the code gets invalidated and replaced with new code (and maybe some data structures get patched).

I think that this kind of thing is in fact done with the high-performing Javascript engines used in major browsers. I imagine PyPy, being a JIT, is in a position to do this kind of thing. Perhaps Python is more difficult than Javascript, and/or perhaps a lot more effort has been put into the Javascript engines than into PyPy?
Just because people got lucky for a while doesn't mean that risk was actually ever low. The reality is that risk on those trades was always extremely high, but it wasn't apparent through traditional risk metrics such as volatility or credit ratings. And there are more risks to worry about than just market risk and counterparty risk.
Like a cyberpunk Nagra.
Perhaps... but If that's true, you're likely not doing what is typically referred to as NER in computational linguistics.
Either that or yours going with a type of 'dictionary based' regex system, which gets typically high recall, low precision.
Several years ago, when manual FE was a thing, this would be fed to a CRF model or some other Markov like model, perhaps even an LSTM prior to W2V, and be used as a feature - along with other things like 'ends in ly' etc.

There's always tradeoffs. Regex is fast, linear CRFs are quite fast too. Simple LSTMs are fast-ish, as well as BERT-like systems, can offer a decent tradeoff in speed/performance. LLMs are much slower, and need some type of distill step by step to get anything very useful out (for task specific model).

Ultimately, you're right in that regexes along with other older techniques should be understood and weighed for what is the optimal solution for the task.
On a slight tangent, I love reading the first posts of a blog. Especially when the subsequent posts are about the person building or designing said blog. It it’s really hard to find those kinds of posts or blogs. All the results on google are blog spam articles about making money with a blog.

Can anyone recommend some?

Here’s one of my favourite examples.

In addition to the positives already outlined the two biggest gains for me blogging are

* Producing better documentation in a work capacity (that is, blogging has meant that the documentation that i produce at work has greatly improved).

* Providing an outlet for me to "talk" about the things, in detail, that I have fallen in love with.

I don't think I get your point. Especially regarding weather models. I'm pretty sure that to program good weather predictions, you need to know a lot about the mechanisms. And a prediction model can be used to test theories by comparing predictions against reality. That makes the theories falsifiable.

And what is it about comparing computational weather models to p-hacking? Good weather predictions provide value to lots of people, while p-hacking is looking for results where there are none, only benefitting the hacker.
You have a cynical view of "clicks". I'd argue that others reading the content you write is fairly important.

I would caution against taking the power supply recommendation for two reasons.

(1) Don't buy equipment without LXI as IMHO once you get going you really need coherent and scriptable ethernet control of everything. Yes, you can work manually or use some oddball vendor tool over USB. Yes, it's slow, error prone, and frustrating. The difference between getting things done and getting burned out is largely down to choice of tools. Spend the money.

(2) Multi-channel is important. Pretty much anything needs more than one voltage. It really sux having multiple PSUs because it doubles bench space, cable overheads, is a pain to synchronize. I would recommend a three channel supply with LXI at a minimum.
Whole industries have switched over. Logistics, taxies, food delivery used to be done by employees and they're gig work now.

In the broader "zero-hours" employment contract sense —which has very significant commonalities with gig working— a great many major employers shed their part-time workforces because they can. Employers are dictating employment terms in such a way that people are working full-time hours and are still unable to make ends meet; have no job security, no expectation of progression, no recourse if they're suddenly let go.

In the UK, the companies doing this are countless and the scope if everything from major multinationals down to local shops and services. Part time work used to come with an expectation of hours. Over a year it built to a right to those hours (or pro-rata redundancy), just like any other employee. But now they're just worms.

The idea is that you add it into the solder already in place. That in turn lowers the melting point of the mixture.

With a low melting point it takes a lot longer to re-solidify after you heat it up which means (if you do it right) you have a lot more time to work - so you can get the solder mixture for all the connections on the entire component liquid at the same time and just pull the component out in one go without damaging the board or the component.

You do then need to clean it up as its a bit messy but solder wick works fine for that.
Suddenly I'm reminded of the time someone made a Bad Internet simulator (causing packet loss or other problems) and named the program "Comcast".
This is a deceptively valuable feature for regulated/compliance-trained companies, because a lot of things you want a detailed audit trail for are accessed via shells (most notably: the consoles for app frameworks).

Linus has some words on this matter:

> And honestly, there is no way I can merge any of the ZFS efforts until I get an official letter from Oracle that is signed by their main legal counsel or preferably by Larry Ellison himself that says that yes, it's ok to do so and treat the end result as GPL'd.

> Other people think it can be ok to merge ZFS code into the kernel and that the module interface makes it ok, and that's their decision. But considering Oracle's litigious nature, and the questions over licensing, there's no way I can feel safe in ever doing so.

> And I'm not at all interested in some "ZFS shim layer" thing either that some people seem to think would isolate the two projects. That adds no value to our side, and given Oracle's interface copyright suits (see Java), I don't think it's any real licensing win either.

In the most generous possible reading of some of the comments, there's a distinction to be made between "the government"/"the police"/etc. using encrypted messaging versus actively supporting those entities and supplying them with a product that furthers their goals. After all, a big part of the value proposition is avoiding government and police surveillance.

That being said, I find it difficult to take most of the comments seriously when the debate quickly descends into conspiracy theories about theoretical encryption backdoors.
What I heard is that it wasn't actually a good fit for oil companies as they tend to focus on building one-off installations. Renewables is more similar to serial production where you have to do the same thing many times. Which is a good fit for dredging companies or cable layers. My guess is that we just had a lot of coast and shallow waters.

False metadata for rich media is a damned tough problem to target.

Putting aside any actually truthful captions, how do I know that "image of X" is actually an image of X?

Reading some of the Bellingcat investigations, and time spent, doesn't bode well.

I guess you could TinEye and index/hash the entire web's worth of rich media, then spot discrepancies (listed as X here, but Y there), but that seems horrendous in compute/bandwidth/storage terms.

> Multiprocessing on Python works great and isn’t even very hard if you use say async_apply with a Pool.

Multiprocessing works great if you don't really need a shared memory space for your task. If it's very loosely coupled, that's fine.

But if you use something that can benefit from real threading, Python clamps you to about 1.5-2.5 cores worth of throughput very often.

It's an excellent book and highly regarded for a reason. I have a pro-tip about it, though... don't feel as if you need the most recent edition. The older ones are still great and relevant, and buying it used will save you a few bucks.

Oceananigans is used for climate modelling and they use a different set of equations for this purpose (hydrostatic Boussinesq equations instead of Navier-Stokes equations).

None of those agencies want their data to be compromised by a faulty backdoor for another agency in another country, they also know they can't develop good enough systems on their own to have secrecy+usability for themselves but not for the public..

This is something I was able to achieve independently back in 2001 by writing a small DOS program that switched CPU into 32-bit protected mode, loaded a PE (portable executable) exe file into the memory together with DLL modules it depended upon.

The next step was to write KERNEL32.dll etc modules that were used by executable files of interest. It turned out to be a relatively easy task - only a handful of Win32 modules and their API functions were actually used by the real programs I was trying to run under the DOS. And those API implementations were mostly stubs that translated, say, I/O calls from a program into corresponding DOS calls.

Having that trick upon my sleeve, I vividly remember of being able to run 32-bit Borland C++ compiler (bcc32.exe) and linker for Windows under the raw DOS environment. Don't ask why, I did it because I could.
Safety and reliability are not mutually exclusive with exploitative. It can be both.
The other languages are not taking/releasing a globally mutually exclusive GIL every time it crosses an API boundary and thus "shared nothing" in those languages is truly shared nothing. Additionally, Python's multiprocessing carries a lot of restrictions which makes it hard to pass more complex messages.
