I'd need to go back and look at the code, but it was something primitive but similar to backprop. There was an evaluation routine that compared what lit up on the back of the cube to the desired output. The farther off it was, the more the certainty got docked from any of the [connected] neurons one layer up from the bad pixel, and that dragged down the certainties on the next layer and so on. It didn't have the ability to back check which neurons were involved in which specific output node. But I guess it was a scatter shot attempt at that.
GOG has SC2k available and it should work just fine on Windows 10.
This issue was with the ASRock WRX80 Creator R2.0, so I got the R1.0 version instead. Now I'm wondering if it resets the bios on wake.
This is all pretty awesome. However, with regard to search, the zero latency is indeed fast, and this is because it is client-side entirely. It appears to be hand written for this site.

I think the quality of search recall and ranking could be improved though. It has zero tolerance for misspelling for instance, and cannot match partial words while you are typing the terms. Still, it is pretty cool. And open source too, which is even cooler.
What school were you at when you experienced standing ovations for teachers? I never have and it also looks like many other commenters have not. I wonder if it is a cultural thing?
This is long overdue. It is well past time for tech workers to organize and demand a larger share of the billions in wealth we’ve generated for the VCs and CEOs.
I follow what you're saying. What overt response could they offer? Their opening bid was an attempt to take Kiev. Whatever Russia can do, it is trying to do. It's already all on the table. They're doing better now because so many of the incompetent Russians are dead, but they're still limited by what Ukraine allows them to do.

Is this really going to work? Aren't they laying off people? Just layoff the walkouts
I would wake up with a ravenous hunger as the smell would have permeated the house! What a delightful problem to have!
No it’s not. This is to eliminate all the fake notes and illegally collected money (via bribes) as depositing the money or exchanging them will force corrupt politicians and others to have to show tax receipts for where did they earn it from. Hahahaha. This is so awesome. Indian culture is full or corruption where you have to bribe to get anything done.
Yes, so return to office will cause top performers to leave. The incompetent people are not going anywhere due to such policies.
Do you have a recipe to recommend?
The danger of any walkout is that you won't be allowed to walk back in. The time for useful collective action was back when tech companies couldn't hire fast enough, and tech employees enjoyed unusual leverage. After 27,000 layoffs, a performative walkout without a defined goal is just making it easier for Amazon management as they plan the next round of cuts.
This sentiment will forever fall on deaf ears because starting new subs cost you nothing but time and energy. I used to be a moderator on a fair number of subs with 30K+ members that I started from scratch based on that exact mentality. Nobody owes you an audience.
Cloud has a variable price (up to the whim of whatever they decide the price to be that day) so it's uncertain, but typically it is far" more expensive for this type of application.
So when faced with 1) probably far more expensive, or 2) single price that will be cheaper, is always available, and has far more uses, I think most would choose 2) for self-hosting. Cloud is very rarely* a good option.
Because I don't see anyone downstream agreeing with you, I just wanted to hop in and +1 that I think you're REALLY making good points throughout this thread. I think a lot of folks are having trouble imagining a world beyond "EU laws" and "US laws". If every national or even state/provincial government has its own data laws (we already have 5 states in the US with GDPR-like legislation, and more likely on the way), then we're just accelerating towards a fragmented internet __with no opt-out mechanism for the individual__. When (especially smaller) companies get weighed down by legal interpretations and the fear of violations, they're just gonna start blocking more and more clients from everywhere outside their jurisdiction. (Apologies to the world, but I literally work on software that makes it easier to resolve geolocation for web devs and, among some other reasons, one of the top ones is to block certain georegions.)

Separately, while I'm all for internet privacy and am generally aligned with the _intent_ of GDPR, having had to meet its requirements at the highest level of scale, I have no qualms saying that it's truly a _terrible_ piece of legislation. Clearly whole sections were written without any regard for technical accuracy, and it leaves a number of ambiguities and contradictions within its language that continue to go without clarification. I don't feel like getting in the weeds here, but if you ever want to see people getting in the mud about how to actually comply with it, just go take a peek at the higher-comment threads in /r/GDPR.

Personally, I'd much prefer a cascading set of standards coming from a technically oriented consortium of (ideally OSS) folks that could be enforced from the client side as much as possible, and then independently audited on the server side (like a UL certification, but for your server architecture). Most of us here are probably already using a ton of client extensions to enforce as much privacy as we can without breaking things, and if an OSS auditing standard came along for servers, it'd be sweet if I could e.g. set my browser to "EU data servers only" and have my browser give me an option to explicitly override it if I really need to (like we do today with bad SSL certs).

As for the data export and deletion controls...I get the argument that's only enforceable via regulation and government enforcement. But given the ease of data replication and laundering (made even easier in a post-ML world), I'm not optimistic that you can actually "catch" people violating it except against the absolute largest corps ("yeah, we totallyyyyyy deleted all your data, for sureeee"). Feels like it's enforceable at about the order-of-magnitude of insider trading in the US.
Not at Amazon. Your cash pay was (is) capped at 160K in Seattle and you earned all the remaining in stock. Given that there has been little to no hiring the last 9 months and most people got their initial grant when the stock was at ATH, they are all looking at substantial pay cuts of 30% - 50%.
Then this fact should be showcased in the page. One shouldn't be left wondering.

In any case, when I check out the library https://buddhistuniversity.net/tags/ it clearly makes a distinction between Early Buddhist texts, Therevada texts, Mahayana texts, Vajrayana texts, etc. From this I had the (apparently mistaken?) impression that they represented on equal footing.

Ask HN: Have you ever had to use an attaché case?
I'm wondering if this is a thing I only see in movies or if people actually use these, and how that plays out when going places like airports or if you need to use the restroom. Who keeps the key? So many questions make me inclined to believe it's just a movie device for added mystery.
Interesting study, worth noting that UCL study isn't finding in favour of whole word vs phonics, but rather "[the findings] suggest that a balanced instruction approach is most likely to be successful", which seems reasonable and hopefully education boards develop an approach to get the best of both worlds. The NYT article I linked quoted the former State Superintendent of Education who spearheaded the Mississippi project saying "Each year we tweak our methods, but the goals always remain the same" so it seems they have mechanisms in place to react to the new research.
Thanks I forgot about this one, will watch it
We Make Everything Harder
But that's my point, to answer the question asked. You're mirroring between two cloud providers, one cuts you off and you need to egress all your data ASAP from that provider, to a new one. If you have your primary local, you just push to the new provider free.

Example: my work places all our files, including your docs and desktop folder, on OneDrive. There is a local cache, but they don't actually let you do a full sync to local to minimize egress

Example: they replaced my laptop, I had about a TB of data generated on the old one. It's all in OneDrive. I power up the new laptop. I can't just sync everything to it - they disable that via policy. Every time I open something for the first time, it downloads. So if I wanted to say, copy all my crap to AWS. Now I have to Egress the whole thing from Azure.

Now, imagine you have more than a TB. Not arguing either way - just answering the question.

> even when solar gets more efficient, we'll just use so much of it that it'll even out (which seems to be the case, seeing all the issues with maintenance of solar) to not helping the environnement in the end.

When the efficiency is high enough to a point that all process included in the life cycle can be covered by energy generated by solar panels, at the same time also affort to provide extra energy to reverse carbon emission, we call it a win.

Never use history to justify anything or use it as a proof. History is not a valid proof to anything. Use logic and scientific methods please.
Yes. My favorite is quickie salad recipes. Their times are correct, as long as you happen to have a refrigerator stuffed with containers of chopped vegetables for some reason.

I've seen youtube videos where they "make" such salads. It's really not far off from "cooking time: 10 minutes. 3 to pick from the menu, 2 to call for delivery, 5 for it to reach you."

It's absurd because OP has the wrong understanding of when to use finalizers (as mentioned many times in this thread). Finalizers are not the equivalent of C++ destructors/Rust Drop trait/etc. They're hooks for figuring out when GC is happening.

Oh, but are you saying they didn't take care of all the fake notes and corruption by banning 80% of the currency in 2016?

And do the people have fake notes of the currency that was launched in 2016? Whats the plan going forward? Denomination every couple of years?

Hassle the whole country instead of catching the corrupts. May be thats why they have speed breakers installed even on the major roads.

I guess its fun if one does not have to line up in the banks.
In the modern age, SEO is partially to blame for inaccurate recipe cook times. At some point Google realized that folks would click on more recipes with shorter times, as people would use that as a metric when cooking. So they would promote quicker recipes.

What ended up happening is some recipe developers would try and actually reduce the amount of time their recipe took, and others would just "shorten" prep (or even cook) time down, to try and get the most clicks. I know Kenji talks about it in one of his POV videos, but I couldn't find it in a cursory search.

Since there isn't really a reliable way to know how long recipes would take for _you_ across different sites, it's almost not a useful metric, but it is what's been optimized for.

Getting FAANG salary isn’t enough?
Believe it or not, there are other motivating factors for doing good work than money. Just because I'm fairly compensated doesn't mean I'm going to tolerate major inconveniences that impede my ability to work efficiently, productively, and with a positive attitude. Part of why I want to do my job well is because I find the work itself gratifying. Once that motivating factor vanishes, I'm going to complain or look elsewhere for work. It's in both parties' best interest for complaints to happen, to be heard, and to be addressed, so that workers can get back to being both content for themselves and productive for the company.
UBI as an idea has merits but it's not the solution for this problem. The textbooks are outrageously overpriced because it is sold to a captive audience. Giving the captive audience more money just allows the publishers to price gouge even more. The solution is to make public domain or otherwise generously licensed books at least for well known subjects.

Apologies. Seems like a good policy.

Same here. There is one game though that for some reason I've replayed over and over through the years.

I played the original way back of course. Probably once. Settlers 2.

I had to look it up but apparently the "Settlers 2: 10th anniversary edition" came out in 2006. I don't even remember the original graphics and I'm so used to the 10th anniversary edition look. But once every year or two I delete my profile and play the campaign again over a week or two. It's the only game I've come back to again and again so often. Even with kids in the mix.
same. we've got 3 to 4 hundred million rows in one table and our queries still complete in the 100ms range!

As someone who recently started learning lisp, this is great and the simplest install and setup of any lisp environment I have tried, wish I had found it a month ago. Only issue I had was the log4cl issue many seem to have but cloning the repo for log4cl solved that and all is well.
I expect it'll happen in my lifetime, there was a senator a few years ago making a push to ban the $100 bill because he felt it enabled crime by allowing larger amounts of physical currency to be moved in a smaller package.

I'm personally of the opinion we're better off with the crime -- the psychic burden of knowing that there is no way to make a financial transaction, even for a pack of gum, without an overbearing control-freak government knowing about it is just too much for me. There's other ways to catch criminals without mistreating your citizens, anyway.

From what I have heard, the F16s require a 'clean' airfield where servicemen will daily walk the runways to find and remove small pieces of debris from the runways that would otherwise be sucked into the engine air intakes during take off and landing and cause damage to the engine.

From the article: “F-16s do best on long, pristine runways."

Ukraine does not have airfields like this any more. Quite often the planes would even be required to use sections of ordinary road highway as landing grounds.

In such a situation, those F16s would soon be too damaged to be useful.
I'm not up to date on the of historicity of the buddha, but virtually no reputable scholars or historians endorse the "christ myth theory." It is widely accepted across all disciplines that at the very least he existed and was baptized & crucified and there is extensive scholarship around this consensus.

The rest of your comment feels plausible, but confidently being so wrong about such an easy to check fact of scholarship makes it all untrustworthy.
Not sure why you are getting downvoted, but you are right. Governments can ban the paper currency and lock you out from your digital currency at any time. All the mainstream media channels gets loads of advertisement money from government and they are ready to defend every move of government.
We keep hot masters (typical MySQL master-master-slave(s) setup) on standby.

> Another one is if it’s a foreign dish and you can somehow find all of the ingredients in your local supermarket.

Fun one I noticed: if you search for Hungarian (as in, written in Hungarian) recipes for paprikash, you'll get one dish[1]; if you search for it in English, practically every result would best be classified as some other dish—maybe also good, but not really the same thing.

The key difference seemed to be that the writers of the English recipes were terrified of the amount of sour cream you need to make the real thing. It's a lot. I mean, I'm not Hungarian, but judging from what ~every Hungarian recipe I found said, the correct amount is at least 4x the sour cream per serving of what the English-language recipes suggested. Depending on the recipes one paired up from each language, some were more like 20x.

[1] "What's 'paprikash' in Hungarian, though?" that's what the Wikipedia "other languages" links are for! Find your recipe or ingredient or whatever there, then hit the dish's native language in the language bar. It doesn't even need to be in a script you can read. Works for just about any dish popular enough to have an English-language Wikipedia entry. More reliable (for this specific thing) than Google Translate.
Wow, the pro-corp tone in some of the comments is surprising. Software jobs are one of the few remaining ones where we still hold the means of production -- and can withhold them to our leverage. These folks are walking out for the right reasons -- big f-off to RTO, and even if a bit late, the layoffs.
Negative. I am a meat popsicle.
Apologies. It was unclear what your desired goal from your original post.
Yep, was just sharing this experience in the comments as well. By far the most painful part is schema migrations, and that's well-solved with pt-osc or gh-osc.

“Monday. 9:43 AM. The economy had gotten so bad in New York that people couldn’t afford to eat in restaurants anymore; instead they brown bagged it at their desks. They didn’t eat food at their desks, just brown bags.”
There would be infinite m/v there, and finite everywhere without infinite density, so literally every single random draw of a single mass-unit would be in an area of infinite density, or so goes the idea.
that's likely a major motive behind RTO, yes - voluntary attrition and termination with cause (ie no severance, unlike layoffs and pip). A large walk out would probably boost share pricing.

I've been a skeptic too. What changed my mind wasn't the charts or numbers that could be fudged to push an agenda, but satellite and documentary imagery that shows the decade over decade changes in various places on the planet. The short summary is it's turning to a reptile-friendly world rapidly: most mammals will have nowhere to live by the end of the century, plankton will die out and clouds with it. What will transport water from the oceans is a big mystery, luckily I won't be alive to see it. Reptiles and insects will multiply. And short of an unlrecedented economy-wrecking event, nothing will stop this slow motion crash. Humanity is still too infantile to solve such problems.
That would be a British invention.
