That’s a statistical association not a concept. Try asking it questions that mix concepts like “Can you eat Apple share price?” which aren’t in its corpus.

You need to approach this stuff sideways to see behind the curtain. There’s some hilarious videos where it’s “playing” chess and the first few moves seem very standard because it can simply copy a standard opening. It really has no concept of a valid move just statistical associations. Yet it was trained on more games than most people ever play and high level analysis and etc, but none of it means anything to the algorithm beyond the simplest associations.

Granted this stuff is a moving target it’s easy enough for them to slap a chess engine and suddenly “it” would actually know how to play.
> Seinfeld is one of the few sitcoms where a female character is as flawed as the men. You couldn't even do that show today.

So you observed a whole bunch of modern shows and judged that none met the same standard... Which one of them did you watch that was closest?
> Last time I looked at data about this, it appeared that even a poor father who was present was better than no having a father in the home. If I remember right it was measuring the likeliness of a teenager to end up in prison. If there was a segment of fathers that were worse than not having a father, I don't think it shows up in any study I've seen.

I think their point is that those bad fathers don't show up, because they don't care about their children.
I bought a nice JVC 80’s audio cassette deck. Higher quality than anything I ever had when cassettes were in vogue, tapes are $3 at the record store, longer play than records, and I can record my own.

You can't use Java at scale without worrying about the low level details (e.g. performance). So in a sense python is in the same club as java.

I don't understand the need for python either. I've built data processing and visualization tools in C++ and prefer to do that so I am aware of the performance implications. With python you still need to be aware of what happens under the hood, but then you also need to learn the syntax and identation, so it's like you have multiple jobs. Why not learn C or C++ and use that? There are endless libraries you can use. AFAIK anything that exists for python can be used from C or C++.

It's especially puzzling when getting to a coding interview and the person only knows python and doesn't understand why you never had the need for pandas or any other python specific libraries.

I'm wondering if python hasn't been pushed such that more coder drones can be created easily which makes it easier to hire people and pay them less.
This is a perilous line of thinking! Let's try it with race - "Black homicide rates are seven to eight times those of whites".

And yet, here in Latin America, there are posters in every major city decrying the crisis of "femicidio" (murder of women). Not because they are disproportionately victims (quite the opposite), but because that's what's interesting to the American NGOs that decide what political issues are trendy and important.
Okay perhaps not, but in my experience, HP was the first company to use them as a human interface device (HID).

I actually think there’s optimum voluntary and non artificial turnover where people naturally move to other opportunities. And conversely a calcification where people get stuck in a comfort zone.

I don’t think people should be forced to leave. Instead I paradoxically think people should be hired more interested in growth and this more likely to leave / move around the company / try different roles.

Sometimes you read stuff on the internet about lockouts. Some people even say to do a lockout when you do an oil change, avoiding that you forget to put in new oil.

Whether this is needed or not is debatable, but the consequences are, depending on the car, the cost of a new engine + labor.

I hope for this guy down there that there are multiple lockouts out there to ensure he's out there.

Linux follows the UNIX tradition of having system-wide .conf files in the /etc directory. Those .conf files are human-readable and editable by almost any text-editor.

Most user-specific config files are placed in the user's home directory - sometimes as 'hidden' dot-files, sometimes left out on show. Dot-files don't clutter up the home directory, but sometimes you may forget they are there.

A lot of people suffer dissociation since Trump, which was crystallized in The Joker movie. Or perhaps it was due to social media. In any case, wanting to “see the world burn” is a recurrent idea, I’d like a study on how many people seriously adopt this attitude.
No, they are an idiot. UV light causes various mutations at the DNA level, which accumulate over time and can lead to skin cancer. Skin cancers have some of the highest number of mutations of any form of cancer.
> But let's never forget that we were and can be allies.

Can you share some examples? Honest question, I've never seen this happen in modern day America (it's usually just one side taking and taking instead of give and take).

Based on what you wrote the men's circles you talk about were probably influenced by Sterling Institute, Mankind Project, and the mythopoetic men's movement. I've attended related events in the distant past but I was much too young to "get it" (and honestly still don't get some of it coming from an immigrant family viewpoint).

Men's rights have been denigrated to the point my younger male (Western) friends are Andrew Tate fans because there isn't anything else left.
Accessibility. All UI/UX is about making computers accessible to humans so start with A11Y basics. Once you've got those down, and your software is accessible to as many people as possible, then refine and shape and craft to create something that's got your distinct voice.
I generally agree, though I'd like to add a similar caveat I posted earlier on another thread[0]: those are all relatively recent problems. Like, e.g. petroleum chemistry and chemical industries only started in the earnest in the last 150 years. Chemical leaks and ground water contamination became an issue roughly half-way between then and today. We only have a decent ability to detect such leaks and measure their health impact for half as long still.

It may be that the main reason we're discovering so many externalities and bad second-order effects buried in everything that makes for a modern life, is because it's only recently that sciences and engineering progressed enough to allow detecting and quantifying those issues.

I've found that the ideal size of Timemachine drive is just about twice of the target drive. It last for months if not years -- enough to go back. Beyond that, there must be an archival/backup system in place if you still want to get back files deleted years ago.

Above ground tanks also have the benefit of being gravity fed, so you can use them in rural areas without a power supply or complex pumping equipment.
I think it was completely in context. The original submittal had religious questions, the comment I responded to, had religious reasoning to those questions. If I'm not allowed to respond, then just don't allow submittals of any kind that contain a religious overtone. But I think that will become more and more difficult as AI continues to progress and there are more posts allowed to discuss the nature of mind, 'self' and 'consciousness' and what is 'sentient'. These questions beg religious responses in a lot of people.

I did read the guidelines, and the recent "No vehicles in the park" post, and understand the difficulties of parsing language. You are in a difficult position. I tend to think linking religious beliefs with terrorism is a common argument, not controversial at all, so it seemed a reasonable response. My error was in calling him 'deluded', that is personal and un-called for. Instead of 'You are deluded', I could have said "such beliefs are delusional", or "such beliefs indicate a lack of self awareness".

I’m not sure if AFP (via Netatalk) is really the right thing to use. I’m pretty sure that “native” Time Machine now prefera CIFS (Samba) over the network.
Eh, I’m gonna bite the bullet and give a quick answer, based on what’s I’ve seen growing up:

Basically you get answers like:

“Man up”

“Grow a pair”

“Boys don’t cry”

“Life is harsh, get used to it”

Last but not the least: “psychologists are for weak people with mental problems, not for you”.

Two more observations again based on my life experience:

1. Weakness is generally accepted in girls/women, largely acknowledged and supported. Can’t say the same for boys/men.

2. Often times I’ve been said the above phrases either by girls/women of my same age or by people like teachers/educators.

Basically you end up appearing weak, sometimes get mocked, and in general you’re better off shutting up and keeping stuff inside. Over the years I’ve developed quite a cynicism, that I acknowledge and that (sadly?) works fairly well.

Back in the day, this is what /etc was for. You'd install binaries in /usr or /bin and then NFS mount those from your clients. Then all the config was local in /etc (and the programs generally respected the idea of either creating a config file in /etc on first run or just doing the default thing if it wasn't there).

I'm sad that we got away from that standard. It was nice when I could just back up /etc and be good to go.

(Of course this is looking with rose colored glasses, we never had 100% adherence to the standard, which is how we got to where we are).

Pseudoxanthomonas spadix BD-a59, for one:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2592918/

This is an interesting study. They identified the species by culturing it from contaminated soil sampled at a South Korean gas station. The study also mentions previously identified bacteria that eat BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene -- closely related hydrocarbons having a single aromatic ring) and explains why there are likely to be many as-yet-unknown BTEX-degrading species.

The short version: "Countless other BTEX-degrading bacteria may be present in the soil or sediment but may not compete well in aqueous slurries or perhaps cannot grow in minimal medium; thus, this alternative pool of BTEX-degrading populations is likely to be overlooked. Our study reinforced this concept."
No, In mean quite literally the described situation does not have anything to do with whether or not sunblock itself causes cancer. Like a whole paragraph of scenario was provided and then out of nowhere "and then they get cancer from chemicals in sunblock". Which chemicals, specifically? What do we do about the fact that nearly all women are recommended sunblock daily in nearly all beauty regimens for decades and yet facial skin cancers aren't gendered?

Not really. You need to drill to make any oil.
So if you drilled and spent 10 parts to make it happen (flying people there, energy to drill etc.) and extracted 11 parts, you're selling 1 of those and then using the next 10 to mine the next 11 to get another 1 to sell.
It would still make sense economically as long as you were turning a profit overall (so factoring the total cost into what you're actually selling), although it would be a huge waste in absolute terms.

I do doubt that would be a realistic estimate though.

Shipping confirmations are sent via whatsapp via Tokopedia, Shopee and Lazada.
Logging in / MFA is done via Whatsapp.
You can have a whatsapp for business (which is a separate app from whatsapp but same thing but has built in ecomm tools)

Grab/Gojek/Angas drivers won't text you, but would whatsapp you (cause it's free.) there is a built in dialer/voip into Grab/Gojek, but it sucks and sucks so much it can be useless unless you are ina n 4G LTE locaton and even then - it sucks. I've had countless drivers message me from a grab/gojek hail to confirm location, send live location, etc.

Whatsapp is the status quo for communicating with friends, dates, co-workers, contractors, etc. No one wants to pay for an SMS plan - in Philippines it's barely there but most people have moved on due to tons of fraud/abuse/load scams (load is the credit for Globe/smart, it's called pulsa in indonesia) so many people just all together turn it off.

OTP/MFA from all the major indonesian/malyasian and PH banks do Whatsapp MFA. BPI, BDO, Mandiri, Permata, BCA, Mayabank, HSBC, etc. Yes, even HSBC.

It's even a big thing with USA banks - https://www.telemessage.com/citi-goldman-sachs-hsbc-and-othe... but that's more for collusion then just ecommerce and general daily life activity.

So tl;dr Whatsapp is required in SEA for daily life, otherwise you're the outdated outlier that needs to do phonecalls.
Harm from speech is completely subjective and that is why you need a generalized legal way to measure it as harm.

Normative behavior and ethics are subjective as well. They are also subjected to the whims of the mob of the moment.
Honestly, yes. I exercise to have fun, be healthy, and maybe look a bit better. But I know for sure I can succeed in business, in programming, in academia, in comedy, even in pornography with only a few minutes of grooming every day.

Oh I know there are some men who struggle with body image issues. And the tiny proportion of men working as hollywood actors probably care about their looks a great deal. But do you shave your legs or wear make-up? Read beauty magazines? Me neither.

We men have a wealth of role models showing we can succeed regardless of appearance. Nobody gives a shit about Elon Musk's BMI, or how Richard Stallman dresses, or whether Donald Trump has a six pack.

No malice intended, but I genuinely felt as if you had wasted your own time. Sorry if I don't subscribe to the usual HN tug-fest. If you learned something - good for you but I've been down this exact road many times before. Oftentimes I have to mentor younger engineers that there is often a much simpler solution if you can see the forest for the trees.
Yeah but here it’s never actually your money and if the cycle breaks you are screwed anyway. If you fail with everyone else then you can say that nobody could have ever predicted this.

This seems like an awfully clueless post. What is "soon"? This year? No. Within five years? Yes. Ten years could well see >50% share.
Ten years ago there was no Aarch64 chip available from anyone. The iPhone 5s came out in September 2013, Android phones early 2015, the first SBCs (e.g. Pi 3 and Odroid C2) in 2016 -- just 7 years ago.

Now Arm makes up 25% of AWS.

The RISC-V Linux kernel, gcc & llvm, Debian and Ubuntu are all in fine shape for generic C/C++ datacenter stuff. All the interpreted languages are there, the things with their own JITs are in the worst shape because they are the only things that need a lot of special RISC-V work (given gcc and llvm are long done) but coming along nicely.

There are a ton of "Raspberry PI" size and cost RISC-V boards now, with quad core 1.5 GHz dual-issue JH7110 SoC (like Pi 3) or quad core 1.85 GHz OoO TH1520 SoC (like Pi 4).

There is a server chip (SG2042) available RIGHT NOW that has similar cores to the first Graviton generation four years ago, but 64 cores per chip instead of 16. You can get it on a single-socket board today, and dual- and quad-socket boards are coming within months. That's up to 256 cores, hundreds of GB of RAM, lots of PCIe, lots of L3 cache.

The $100 TH1520 boards make a great development device for things to run on the SG2042 as they have the same C910 CPU cores.

RISC-V chips in the same class as current (or very recent) x86 and Apple M1 will be available for development purposes NEXT YEAR and in mass production in 2025 or 2026.

Is RISC-V going to take over entire datacentres? No, of course not. Is it going to have a significant and growing place in them within the next five years? Yes.
Valgrind and Heaptrack don't support Windows. MTuner doesn't support Linux.

I'm not sure how the feature set compares MTuner. It looks like MTuner has a much richer and robust GUI for exploring the data. I'm not sure if it's intrinsically more capable. But it's certainly more user friendly and accessible!
Except that the saying "cause and effect" is using the other (noun) meaning of "effect": it's drawing a line of causality, from a prior occurrence (the cause) to the later occurrence that is a consequence of that cause (the effect).

No one uses "cause and effect" like "cease and desist".

Low intensity shouldn't involve panting at all, because low intensity exercises are designed for people with specific health issues where anything above slight exercise is dangerous to them. [consider: significant osteoperosis, serious heart disease, etc] Stretching is low intensity exercise.

Also, an exercise you can only keep up for 20 minutes at a time is pretty high intensity.
