The public access the web version via nginx, technically. Jekyll or Hugo just spits out files.

You set up your wordpress with custom post types and I wrote a Jekyll Generator plugin that builds content from a SQL query to WordPress' database. The whole pipeline to build and publish an update to the static site was around 5 minutes...with most of the build-time being eaten up by webpack to do its thing. Probably could have shaved off more time but at that point who cares.

There are also WordPress plugins that can do this now, but understanding how WordPress stores data in its database is dead-simple.

For a static site, a lot of tricks were pulled off to serve dynamic content and the site was still pretty tight and speedy. You can still get reliable Date stamps and CSRF tokens for formfills and stuff like that using nginx SSI.
Well the "we have the ability to alter humans so we're all strong, healthy, and intelligent but we not only choose not to do that but choose to stunt development of some humans to produce a docile compliant workforce for menial labor" is pretty darn dystopian no matter how you swing it.

And if you say "oh that wouldn't be so bad" you can even put your money where you mouth is -- would you be fine with being deprived of oxygen long enough to cause minor brain damage but otherwise not harm you? Done right you wouldn't feel a thing too. You can volunteer to be permanently dumber.

Huxley describes very eloquently how one end by two means are not the same. Human variation that arises naturally but at all times people are trying their best is a fact of life. But humans taking the reins and making that same variation by choice for their own desires is dystopian.

Housing has almost nothing to do with markets because Anglo countries run it by central planning. So they can't enter.

Construction is pretty high where it's been allowed.

As for food, it has fallen - eggs were high earlier this year and now aren't. This is mostly driven by gas prices and the occasional animal pandemic.
The next question is "what does junior mean" and "what does senior mean".

There's always another question
Yes corps are greedy all the sudden. This is why the Great Financial Crisis is referred to in academic circles as the "Great Generosity" because deflation occurred.
If the bank collapsed you'd lose because the bank has your paycheck in it.
I fully agree with what he says, but it's just a starting point, to know that it's possible, since the way of successfully making a living without depending on a job is unique to each individual. Wouldn't it be great if there was a formula for this?
Angular vs React: A Detailed Comparison of Two Best Front-End Frameworks
Angular and React both have functional components which are well-suited for software development. There are so many similarities between them but “to each its own“. They have their distinct features to offer and, in their own way, some limitations as well.

This blog emphasizes each of these platforms in detail. A cover-to-cover uncovering of these frameworks to reveal and understand which framework is suitable and when.
What's bonkers is how far down the list of comments I had to scroll before someone sane called this stuff out as batshit. Well done, sir.
I believe Marx's thing was "the tendency of the rate of profit to fall", not "the tendency of the rate of profit to rise because of greed".
> The only way for the sales folks to tailor a demo or presentation for you is to learn about your business.

Yes and it's their job to do that, not waste the buying decisionmaker's time doing their homework for them.
Now that is correct.
> Sure, not "out of the box" but not the way you mean. There was a design to be put in place, but no more than any other CMS...

That's pretty much what I mean. Most CMS platforms on high traffic sites need caching, but not to the extent WordPress needs to be buffered. I've seen some ugly stuff that was solved very quickly by using a more robust CMS. I suspect you have too.

There are advantages to it for a newsroom but not enough to make me ever consider reaching for it in 2023.

> If your devs are being made to cry then you are doing it wrong?

I disagree with this. If I make people use the wrong tool then I'm doing it wrong.
The corruption amongst the ownership of concrete companies and the city's politicians has been an enduring feature of the local political landscape, not too long ago SDOT would only build roads out of concrete unless there was a very good engineering reason not to.

The impact of the concrete strikes here in Seattle has been awful tho, it caused multiple clients of mine to give up leases due to half complete projects impeding their ability to do business.

Hopefully in the future it won't take repeated protests over 5 years to reach a compromise contract. The concrete industry's management needs to be treated much more severely than what they got away with this past go around.

The article mentions as a drawback of non-radar-based cruise control:

"They also can't follow other vehicles quite as closely, with the following distance kicked back from one car length to two, meaning that it is easier for other vehicles to sneak ahead of them in traffic."

I'm not sure exactly how to interpret this, but at highway speeds, like from 55-85 mph, Honda's adaptive cruise control allows the following distance to be set from roughly 100 to 300 feet.

An "average" car length seems to be about 15 feet, so that converts to 7-20 car lengths.

If Teslas really do allow following other cars at 1-2 car lengths at, say, 75 mph, that's a bit startling. I can't say I've seen one doing it though.
Maybe eventually mainstream browsers will get to the level of functionality of Firefox + Tree Style Tabs.

(Sadly, I can't call Firefox all that mainstream today.)
That explains why it was split up, but not why in a square grid. It sounds like the "corner" issue could have been avoided by using a hexagon pattern, right? That way corners are only shared by sections that also share a side. Then again, I haven't been able to convince my friends that using a hexagon grid for our tabletop RPG games is worth it despite the advantages seeming obvious to me (no need for weird rules about moving diagonally), so I suppose this would have been a hard sell to the late 19th century government as well.
The law, in its infinite wisdom, lets both rich men and poor men alike cut corners.
As a transplant to the ML world who migrated from physics I do find it funny that people in ML will insist that gradients are vectors. Once you get to general relativity your physics professors will beat into you the fact that gradients are not vectors. (They are one-forms.) But in the ML context it's a distinction without a difference, unless you're in a really specialized corner of the field like information geometry.
But that hasn't borne out anywhere. Pretty much everywhere there's a population decline, there's also all sorts of other systemic issues.
Forth.
And I'd love to write some :)

Struggling to find enough time in the day at the moment, but we are pushing out a big release soon (Supernotes 3.0), and after that I hope to find some time for proper blogging about development.

I don't know about "illegal" but it seems the Case or Controversy Clause has bearing in that hypothetical. If no actual controversy exists between the parties - for example, if both sides have agreed on who is to win the case - then the courts generally don't like to issue a ruling.

Further, if a litigant fails to raise an issue while arguing a case, and the court therefore doesn't consider it, then the precedent doesn't necessarily control a future case where a litigant does raise that issue.
Because that's what the owners of said capital want.

I'd expect analysis explaining why firms are able to achieve "excess profit" now for such a strong claim to be believed.
In many jurisdictions it's illegal to record people without their knowledge and consent and I would argue it is always unethical to do so. If you're going to record you should ask participants whether or not that's ok unless you're in an ongoing situation where recording is the norm and people have already consented to that.
The addresses in the article include the MOT building (1000 Enterprise Way) but not TC (11th Ave). I'm not sure Google used 1020 or 1050 Enterprise?

Honestly it seems like a small reduction, and of the buildings least connected to the rest of the company.
Just tried AirVPN. Works good.

Ah OK, in my car AEB and SCC ("Smart Cruise Control" as they call it) are the same sub-system - when one broke due to the no-input fail-safe, so did the other. The radar is behind the badge and works in tandem with the camera I believe.

because it was a cold war fairy tale.
For the sake of clarity for those not inclined to read the linked article: Historically over the two millennia prior to Mao traditional medicine in China was a highly individual and idiosyncratic practice. While there were some aspects which were generally held in common the over all practice was incredibly diverse. It wasn't until Mao that these practices were assembled into the more unified and systematic Traditional Chinese Medicine that people are familiar with today.
It is common in US too. It is harmful when used in animals, but even that is not globally accepted. Plenty of countries use it for animals too.
So my model of the fuelling of inflation is that after a priceshock, individuals and organizations alike attempt to figure in present and future price rises into their own pricing. If you can do that perfectly, than inflation stays constant, and its effects are minimised (because your real earnings are going up at the same level, interest rates will include the flat rate, etc). If you estimate too highly, then you end up with spiralling inflation -- but it's certainly safer for your own pocketbook. That's the major risk with high inflation levels.

I can completely believe that producers are able to adjust prices more quickly than the labour market, and can easily overshoot, but it doesn't seem to be a /moral/ failing, as this is being portrayed in some quarters. You can -- and may well, and probably should -- get the same effect from the consequences of wage negotiations during rising inflation. Neither of these are the /source/ of the inflation though; they're both elements of prices rising in the first place. I've seen this conveyed in economics memes with a chart of inflation labelled "greed of corporations over time".

I guess looking into it more, this belief that both wage- and corporate-driven inflation is a misconception is also shared by monetarists like Milton Friedman[1], though I can totally believe conservatives might want to push the wage-driven argument, and progressives the corporate-driven model.

That matches one of my two faulty EAB experiences nearly perfect.
Actually, it's a lot older than that and seems to have been an honest mistake. From the ruling [0]:

> History and politics have complicated the pattern of land ownership in the West. To promote western expansion in the nineteenth century, the federal government encouraged the construction of rail lines through the West by granting every other 640-acre parcel along rail corridors to a railroad company. The hope was that the lands remaining with the government would increase in value as the companies built rail lines, which the government would later sell at high prices. The plan was successful further east, but the government struggled to sell the lands in the arid West. The result of this failed venture is the checkerboard pattern of public and private land that now plagues much of the West.

ABS does what I tell it I want to do, giving me greater control of the vehicle. When I press the brake all the way down, it means I want to stop as fast as possible, which I can't easily do without ABS. AEB does whatever it wants, without any input from me, leading to "surprises". ABS is user engaged, AEB takes control away from the user. Stop being disingenuous.
Trying to interpret your words here - is this a situation where the landowner has to pay the government for the part they own, or pay taxes on it or something, and the checkerboard pattern reduces the payment while giving them effective ownership over the whole area? Maybe the locals are sort of scamming the feds?

It's basically the plot to Peter Watts 'Malak' except in that story, the drone's decision to not engage targets was being overridden instead of the other way around.
As someone proficient with R and Python, anything data viz-wise is substantially easier to do in R/ggplot2, particularly something complicated like this post.

I've thought about this, and I'm no expert, but I've come to be convinced this is how reaching carrying capacity is meant to feel.

It's easy to imagine it as some sort of famine, where there isn't enough food to feed children, or overcrowding so extreme that everyone lives in slums and it's simply impossible to have kids. If it ever reached that point, a population graph would show a sharp fall, not a steady leveling-off.

When I think about previous generations in my country (Mexico) they seem more care-free. They loved someone, they had babies. One single head of household could afford to buy a house. It was a house too, not some tiny apartment!

I look at my life though and it just seems a little more stressful in a bunch of small ways. The squeeze is gentle, not abrupt, but it's there. Living spaces seem smaller, which adds a little stress. Comparing vs old photos, the city just looks more crowded, more full of traffic, which adds a little stress. In their 20s my parents weren't thinking about the environment, but I am, which adds a little stress. I think about the living standard I could give my kids more than my parents seemed to; I just can't shake the thought that my kids need to stand out from the huge crowds of people there's now, which adds a little stress. At the end of the day all these little bits of stress add up and lead to me not wanting kids any time soon.

Perhaps this is what approaching a population cap is meant to feel like. Just stress here and there, leading to less fertility, rather than some hard physical limit.
I was afraid that might be the answer. Or something like "Well foo can do it for most QT apps but nothing else, bar can do it for GTK2 but was never adapted to GTK3..."; such is the mixed blessing of diverse ecosystems:\
Develop Health | Founding Software Engineers, Founding LLM Engineers | SF or REMOTE | https://develophealth.io

We’re tackling the burdensome process of medication prior authorizations which delay access to medications and take up valuable healthcare provider time. By using LLMs we can take the process down from 20 minutes per form to less than 2 minutes. We help providers get back to what matters and help patients get their medications faster.

Our product uses LLMs, and as an engineer on the team, you’d get to work closely with the latest and greatest AI technology!

We’ve raised $2m from SPC and Afore VC and signed 2 digital health cos with a lot of interest in the pipeline.

We're looking to build our initial founding team and would love to chat with you if applying AI in healthcare excites you!

That's a weird claim. Phenylephrine has a number of well documented and researched effects with demonstrable efficiency greater than that of a placebo. Now there are certainly people who have and do take it as a decongestant despite that particular usage having been shown to be ineffective, but that doesn't make it crap and it certainly doesn't place it in the same category as homeopathic remedies.

Who are you talking about?? Not a single brand is as synonymous with VR as Meta & Oculus Quest. In fact, whenever I speak with any non tech focused people about VR they automatically assume I'm talking about the Quest.

The reason I like it is that he’s unified tabs and bookmarks almost, it’s a great UX that looks like some things you might have seen but still feels different.

He’s also got wicked design sense — but I’m biased so. I also feel like I’m doing him a disservice — he’s got one of those silly lifetime deals going right now.
So if I embed a custom "special sauce" model in my phone app, to do inference faster on the device, my bigger competitors could simply extract it from the bundle and use it too?

Perhaps that's okay, I don't know, but it seems strange that the little pieces of client-side javascript are so copyrightable yet this other work isn't.

Capitalism is weird. Competition does nothing to reduce costs in healthcare. Perhaps demand outweighs supply several times over? Instead, doctors are treated like royalty (and they deserve it after what they’ve been through/sacrifices they’ve made). But it feels a bit like renting a Lamborghini to do grocery shopping.

We need more layers below doctors that can very effectively treat typical healthcare conditions. We need more NPs and PAs. Perhaps more doctors too - if we can lower the rigor and regulation for family doctors. Make it easier to become one - preferably without losing one’s shirt.

An analogy to healthcare today would be to only allow someone to code once they reach Staff Eng (MD) skill level. Most of them spend the majority of their time fixing bugs that a Jr. Eng (PA in training?) could fix with guidance, or a SE 3/4 (PA/NP) could fix on their own.

So, no - filling the work with Staff+ Eng (MD+) is not the most optimal or cost effective way of dealing with this.

Staff (pun) aside, there’s also the whole drug price gouging situation. I don’t know how will we fix that.
Can you give an example of unethical trials where “there was no viable alternative” was what got the trial past an IRB? I’m more familiar with inverse complaints that trials are blocked by red tape and hypothetical concerns that are objectively small in actual QALY harm.

(I’m sure this varies by jurisdiction too; I have only heard bad thing about US IRBs)
I feel like the R ecosystem was there first; but perhaps two completely separate groups of people.

Ecologists, researchers working with geological or geospatial data use R and have been using R for a long, long time. The 'old 'standard library 'maps' is decades old by now, with maps v3 now being 8 years old. maps v2 goes back to 2003, about the time of Python 2.3?

I can't even find the sources of maps v1. https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/maps/ I believe that maps v1 was for R's predecessor, S, so from the late 90s, about the time Python 1.5 came out. Was anybody even using Python then?

OP's post uses the slightly fancier tidyverse-versions of these decades-old libraries. I think it's safe to say that map-making libraries are older in R than in Python.
Yes.

They are less of an implementation detail.

Grapheme > Code point > Encoding > Endianness > Media

One pretty useful reason would be to then eliminate that content from subsequent training data, so you're not training the next model on the previous model's output.
More likely because he's beating a dead horse and acting surprised. Everyone knew that Musk overpaid, that's why the deal was approved despite the people running Twitter not wanting to sell. Musk himself has said numerous times that he overpaid and slashed the valuation with 50% months ago.

It's actually pretty simple.

People are too busy to think about stuff they aren't directly interested in.

Pressure to have kids is reducing year by year (relatively, and it compounds quickly).

Since everybody is being trained to pursue personal excellence/satiety they're pushing back everything that isn't directly in their interests.

This includes devaluation of relationships (romantic, parental, and platonic). In exchange for the elevation of the individual.

And so, when the question of kids comes up, it's done with the same myopic lens as most other decisions. Which isn't to say, that its easy to just have children. But, people aren't exactly kicking their feet up. They're busy; very very busy.

This is actually probably no different than before, but there was momentum from traditions and peer pressure. But because the rails have diverged for so long, the curve is compounding.
In the 19th century no one would so daft as to think ownership of a random plot of land would give you the right to keep people from traversing it. Someone cutting down your trees, hunting, grazing their cattle or sheep, mining, farming it, yes. Just walking across it? They'd think you were a loon.
Our response to emergency care (broken bones, concussion, etc) is beyond par, we routinely save people who would have been considered "dead or nearly so" fifty years ago.

Our response to issues like obesity and other long-term things is just horrendous - almost always trying to treat symptoms instead of causes.
