I remember working with several ML teams on specifically inference performance (latency, memory usage etc.), and it's not a surprise to see some object detection performance variance depending on a scene.

Sometimes, even capping the model architecture to bound us from exceeding performance thresholds is non-trivial in itself, but convincing "some" researchers why p99, inference latency for example, is more important than the p50 case in a safety critical system...that's surprisingly several magnitudes harder.

I think a lot hangs on what the data is ultimately for— if you have twenty compressed blobs and you only need one of them at a time, then it's perfect, or maybe if you have a single large blob that you just need targeted random access to.

But if you're going to uncompress it all right at startup, than it's not worth it at all— microcontroller flash is much cheaper and more plentiful than RAM.

Not sure I follow your logic, how did you end up with 9GB for a single shot, and why exactly 128 frames in 2 seconds?

iPhone's hardware is more than adequate to capture RAW videos at 60fps with binning, not just photos (too bad Apple doesn't allow it, so it can't). People are using Android smartphones to shoot videos in RAW for several years already. OnePlus 8 Pro and later can easily capture a RAW stream in 4K 60fps.
He was absolutely ultra wealthy. But there's a difference between ultra wealthy and being one of the wealthiest people on the planet. Jeff Bezos was on the long list of wealthy people in 2004, not the short list and it's easy to forget that the move from the long list to the short list isn't gauaranteed, and doing so doesn't require you to go out in public with extremely erect nipples.

> How did you manage to get a PhD in theory then?

Certainly not by being a walking glossary. If that was involved, I’d not have done it.

Same way that everyone does. I gravitated towards a niche, found a new method to analysing it, generalising that method to many more applications and spending the final year trying to ride the metaphorical unicycle on a tightrope hanging high above a cavern of nervous breakdown. The usual.

Now, the way you talk sounds very familiar - I know mathematical physicists who are very much used to throwing mathematical terminology around. But on the theory side, it’s quite rare to generalise that far so early on in an academic career. It’s far more about the concrete application than the abstract viewpoint, unless it’s somewhere where the abstract viewpoint makes a lot of sense.

Well it is an important factor.

Average bond yield is around 4% over a decade, that means that investing in a business you need to discount the growth it will have in it's cash flow by 4%.

Imagine you conclude Coca Cola can grow it's cash flow and earnings per share by 6% annually, is it an appealing investment when you get right now almost 5 on bonds? I's not really, but you would probably come to a different conclusion if Coca Cola's price felt by 15% in some market conditions.

Statistically speaking, Mormons have one of the lowest rates of divorce among religions in America, at least when looking at marital status [1]. Only Hinduism has a lower rate of divorced individuals.

That being said, I'm sorry that was your personal experience growing up. Statistics don't change the fact that individual experiences can really suck, and if it was the case that most of the Mormon membership around you were as terrible as you imply then that's rough.

A suggestion on your sample. It says “The librarian goes to the stacks, finds the book, and brings it back to you.

The next time you need that same book, the librarian doesn't have to go all the way to the stacks again – they can just grab it from the shelf behind the counter.”

This is missing the step where after you return the book to the librarian, they put it on the shelf behind the counter.

Then if you want you can talk about the shelf only fitting a limited number of books, and the librarian having to decide what to do if the shelf is full.
One of the most important realizations I've had recently is the investing motto: "You can't beat the market, but you can beat the tax man".

Don't try to be smart about your investments from the point of view of share pricing, P/E ratios, EBITDA, etc, etc. The legions of Harvard and MIT quants working on Wall Street are going to be better than you at figuring out what the stock price should be.

Instead, get smart about how the tax code works. Figure out the difference between long-term and short-term capital gains. Figure out how to do tax loss harvesting. Figure out what a back-door IRA is. Figure out how to take out a loan on your 401(k). The benefits from those investigations are going to be much more reliably beneficial than trying to be smart about pricing and timing the market.

I’d suspect I has to do more with familiarity than it does intrinsic differences between the two. My team does this kind of work, and it’s not difficult. It is worth tracking, paying attention to, and making changes if you’ve done something wrong, but what things cause these issues is generally pretty straightforward.
At least in America, there's not a lot of alternatives. The system is setup in a way that favors minoritarian rule (particularly, but not exclusively by the rural) and lobbyists. Unfortunately, that means that diregarding laws that they disagree with is often the only way to represent the will of the people.

> High-corruption projects rarely get done, or have serious flaws if they do.

Survivor bias. You only hear about corruption in failed projects. You don't hear all that much about corruption in successful projects because it couldn't have been that bad if the project went well and was a good idea. I can assure you that with every successful project many people got rich on the side too.

Getting rid of corruption is impossible. But it can be done in a better or worse way.

The amount of work that a publisher does varies, but there can be quite a bit of typesetting. Naturally, there are some lazy, low-rent journals that don't do much. And certainly the publishers love it when the author(s) do a great job from the beginning. But the layer does something.
The previous was also an echo chamber though. Not saying youtube doesn't have problems because oh do they have problems. But it is the only case of a big social network, that I know of, that have been able to improve their discourse.
> Look at that, it's even doing memoization!

That function takes no argument. I've never seen initializing a single variable and returning the result of that initialized variable from a function call taking no argument called "memoization".

Memoization is a specific type of caching with a space/time trade-off where the result of a particular (set of) input(s) are cached.

I find it quite a stretch to call initializing a single integer for a function taking no parameters "memoization". I'd just say the function's return value is "cached".

I mean: by kinda, sorta, bending the definition of memoization (for example by changing "caching the function's results based on the inputs" to "caching the only result for there's no input to the function") you could say that it is actually memoization but then I'd argue this is not a great example of what memoization is.

I may be wrong though.

Also true, but not germane to this discussion.
The real point of CPR is to bridge their life while you rush to get them an AED. Without the AED the chance of their heart restarting permanently is vanishingly low ... Last few times I had first responder training it was said to be less than 15% chance of survival for a patient given CPR, and you'll only hear about this if you ask.

The last time I had first responder training the guy sitting next to me was drowned by a surfing accident but it was his great fortune that on shore there was a national expert giving rapid water rescue training and they had this guy out of the water and his heart restarted in 5 minutes. So that is why he was taking first responder training himself!

Without bitcoin, you collect the ransom in gold with a dead drop.

"But the police can watch the dead drop."

True.

"No police or the victim dies."

Also true.

Bitcoin does make kidnapping a bit easier though. It is true.

It also makes hyperinflation by the state impossible. Hyperinflation does a lot more damage than kidnapping.
> ( some sort of senior politician kidnapping ) and what it was used for in peace time ( forcibly dismantling a protest ).

The state media and government tried to pin mailbox bombings and an instance of kidnapping to this group called the FLQ until an RCMP agent was caught literally red-handed (with severe burns and a torn off finger) planting bombs in a mailbox to pin it on the "FLQ"! [0] The feds then confessed to more than 400 illegal search and seizures, criminal trespass, breaking and entering and arson incidents and the bomb planter admitted he “had done much worse for the feds” (all of these incidents that were used to invoke the constitution's suspension!).

Who was prime minister during that time? You guessed it, Justin Trudeau’s father. What a coincidence.

Sane assessment - The transaction API for D1 will be so important as well. I've not been that excited for their approaches so far, but I also know of no other good alternative.

Something I quite like doing is a thread-local (or async-local) context transaction, and that seems quite hard to do if not impossible with both batching and stored procedures from what I've seen.

What I really wish for is to drop in any old query builder or ORM and use it identically to how I would with SQLite. I'm not sure if that's feasible, however.
Surely there must be a better way to do this, not just for Wikipedia but for all websites with optional logins. It seems like the only difference in the vast majority of cases is to change a single link in the corner of the page from "login" to "the name of my account", which is a silly reason to miss the cache.
Cost of capital includes an inflation term and the risk free rate (but neither may be right over the investment term).

You can use NPV to evaluate different options. If NPV of one investment is $1 and another is negative $4 then it is clear what the better investment is (all other things being equal). Do this for all your investment options and you can rank where to put your money. Of course, if isn’t that easy since two investments might have different terms, risk profiles, or different capital requirements.
Named arguments in statically-typed languages is a naturally a hard thing to implement.

When used in code, it also results in many folding API branches such as Foo::new(port=8088, host="localhost") or Foo::new(pipe="./myfile") – Rust preferred idiom here would be Foo::new_listen("localhost", "8088) or Foo::new_pipe("./pipefile"). So at this point idiomatic Rust is preferred.

Also named parameters amplify your API naming fail surface (think misspellings!) beyond structs and impl functions... Like in "max_connexions" (sic), which is actually an unintended typo in one of the RFC proposals for naming parameters in Rust! It's hilarious.

Default parameters: my_port.unwrap_or(8080)

Variadics: useful, but needs to be carefully considered. There are workarounds now in nightly for C compatibility. There also concerns about how "..." and ".." syntax play out and incompatibilities on different implementation targets. And, yes, safety issues.

It's not that Rust people will mumble about safety. It's that it would be stupid to design a language all around safety and then implement every cool language feature in the world today without scrutinizing them for safety issues.
Thats what we did a former company. You cache the main page on the edges of a CDN. When logged in, you'll get JSON blob that is also cached on the edges using oauth/jwt header as a dimension for the cache key. JSON blob has the users information like username, name etc and its just filled in. Makes the pages extremely performant since everything is cached on edges and protects your origin servers from load. You could also shove stuff into web storage but private mode for some browsers won't persist the data.

I have such mixed feelings.

On one hand, it clearly creates a power problem where too few have too much power.

On the other hand, you don't run a company without a dashboard of statistics and information to inform the decisions you make and theoretically the higher fidelity of the information you use to make decisions, the better decisions you can make. It's also very convenient.

Since people can exercise power without consequences it seems like anything that centralizes power is bad and therefore preserving cash is fundamentally good, but if people could provide consequences to those who abuse power, then things like digital currency could be used for great good.

I have to admit, relatedly, I am incredibly skeezed out by square e-mailing me itemized digital receipts for purchases made against a square terminal. What are they doing with that data? Are the regulated? Are they selling it? Are they using it to collude against customers (like the people who suggest rental prices creating a de facto cartel)?

Cash doesn't really have metadata.

Complete anecdata, but a few months ago a neighbor of mine successfully resuscitated another neighbor with CPR. There was an AED present, but from what I heard, it did not recommend a shock. The person who collapsed is around 70 years old. Sometimes, it does work! There clearly are some cases where it would be crazy not to try it.

The government changed the highway measuring methodology in 2018 [1].

Under new methodology, highway stretch built = Number of lanes * kilometer stretch.

This is actually the international standard. However, when the current government compares itself with prior government, it compares apples with oranges: new methodology numbers versus old methodology numbers.

I live in a high EV density region and it’s already a complete non issue. We have a good number of providers around here, and they are all mostly extremely reliable. Most of the time when I go to charge it will be a bank of 6+ chargers. Occasionally one isn’t working, but that’s not much different from a gas pump being out of service. Worst case I can always drive down the street to another bank.

Like a lot of stuff with EVs, it’s just a question of demand reaching a certain level- which it will- before the services really hit their stride. It’s already happened in a good few places, and it will happen where you live in time.

But no, it happened all over again last year, and I again lost my phone number and access to my email, but this time a friend managed to renew all but one of my domains, so I've managed to access to about 50% of the new accounts I created.

The initial request size is not a great way to compare frontend frameworks. Next goes into a lot of effort to optimize navigation around your site, and gives you full usage of React in your frontend so you can show amazing things like charts, forms etc.

If the JS files are set to load asynchronously, the initial load should be almost equally as fast, and React should load in the background. Afterwards, additional navigation should be near instant.
