I thought that too, but things get weird when you try to separate 'electron-magnetism' and photonics.

If you try to understand WHY a metal outer electron shell will shed a photon, you'll come up empty handed. And with electricity, the electrons move around from one side to the other. Except, do they? What exactly happens at an antenna interface?

And why do we call it the EM spectrum, when the actual carriers are photons?

It's the quantum-EM interactions that I think would make Maxwell's explanation why the equations work as they do make more sense. But even simple stuff in RF makes people evoke ideas of 'black magic'.
Yeah, this is entirely unwatchable.
DOM wasn't meant for real GUI's and trying to trick it into being one seems a fool's errand. It was meant for static documents. DOM is the wrong tool for the job.

Time for a new state-ful GUI markup standard so we don't have to rely on the whacky DOM to get expected and common GUI idioms.

Maybe build the "engine" on top of the Tk or Qt kits to avoid starting from scratch.

> The "reframe the conversation to the thing I want to talk about" - man, that one's frustrating.

The most effective method I've found is making that person responsible for resolving whatever the issue is. Not always possible, but especially when it happens in group settings, some verbal judo can work even if you can't "officially" task them.

(Make sure to memorialize that in an email afterwards, or it will probably retroactively never have happened.)
It's not about forgetting, it's about other people not caring about things that aren't relevant to a job they're hiring for. For example, Meta is known for having a relatively high bar for engineering talent, and that is the signal people are looking for.

Even in the Enron case, I know a bunch of people who were snapped up from Enron after they collapsed. The Enron fraud was concentrated among relatively few people at the company, so it's not like their failure tarnished people who weren't in on the fraud.
I find it telling you can't name one.
They actually investigate this starting on p. 115 and find no significant short-term decrease based on observations from institutions that ceased consideration of legacy status.

I think the more important point this comment misses is that the family's wealth isn't going anywhere and their kids will still go to college, so it stands to reason that the alumni will still give, they'll just be giving to e.g. Arizona State instead of Harvard, which seems like a net positive to me. If people are being honest about their concern that donations from wealthy alumni are good because they subsidize education, those fears are totally allayed.
They never found out who stole it! The bus story became somewhat of an urban legend.

And I'm with ya. I learned so much working for the paper. Perhaps one unexpected skill was cold calling. In sales getting over that fear is an enormously important barrier to cross. Once you do it though, it makes a lot of things in life easier.

For stories I'd have to call people or go find them, frequently when they screwed up, frequently when they did not want to talk to me. Just like the story above—the transit manager did not want to talk to me, but I spent a day and a half hunting him down. He didn't answer my calls, so I went down to where the buses get dispatched from in the afternoon and asked a driver where to find him. That "Somebody just didn't want to wait" quote came from that interaction.

About a year later I started a coupon website. I went door-to-door trying to get local business to buy in. That's probably not something I could have done, if I hadn't worked for the paper first.

> Spreading a chord over two hands isn't really using your left hand though

Kind of like how running with both legs isn't really using your left leg? I don't really understand this train of thought.

> playing random shell chords

Not many piano players these days use bebop era shell chords. It's all about rootless, cluster and quartal voicings. And just because they are played without regularity doesn't make them random. A skilled player places them very intentionally.

> Playing an actual walking bass, stride, four-to-the-bar chords, arpeggios or boogie patterns is more like it.

These techniques create a metrical regularity that is antithetical to the spontaneous and forward-pushing rhythym of post-bop era jazz. It's fine for certain styles of music.
A previous edition of this (that linked to the relevant non open source license) hit the front page but was flagged unnecessarily - people may not like hearing this news, but licensing for ML models is definitely of interest to hackers.
Curious why did you think about building you own?
For us the frustration came primarily from the design, the developer experience to extend/customize, and the way data is pulled and fetched. I think that if we nail those 3 points, we would have a solution that is well enough differentiated from what currently exists in the market
I think part of this is the difference between buying a 3D printer when you've got work to do for it and buying a 3D printer out of interest in additive fabrication methods and what you could do with them. If those are answered questions then you don't need the 'tinkering' stage, you need the stuff that the printer makes much more than you need new insights (or, probably even more than you need the printer itself, its just a tool on the way to getting that stuff).

I bought a Prusa kit, had it sit around for a bit, finally put it together with one of my kids and since then we keep finding really good uses for it that I would never have thought of before I had the thing. The idea that you can fabricate small scale plastic components in a tiny corner of your desk has been a game changer in many ways. Just the other day a part on my car broke, which the manufacturer wants an absolutely outrageous amount of money for (it's a part of the door mechanism). An hour later or so I had a near perfect replacement in my hands (10 minutes to design it, 50 minutes to print).

I concede that maybe it’s not the way “things ought to be”

But what’s your legal argument for why this practice should be prohibited?
I think it's worth pointing out that income inequality is much worse in the US; the Wikipedia page you referenced reflects this somewhat: "2020 average wage in the United States was $53,383, while the 2020 median wage was $34,612."

If you define 'better economic conditions' as meaning more wealth in total, sure, the US is at or near the top. But however, if you're interested in knowing how most people are doing, the reality is that many of our European friends are better off than we are.

The one example I'm personally aware of is Switzerland, which has a wealth tax and relatively low overall taxation. People they tend to live longer lives than we do, they have more disposable income, great infrastructure, a pristine natural environment, local manufacturing, and they have hundreds of years of political stability.
I find it telling that you think it's challenging to name an invention that depends on any of the last 30 years of basic research, so we're at an impasse.
Although I do agree with what you're saying, it's worth noting that even though there are no orthodox ways to turn virtual currency/winnings in video games most of the time, there are plenty of under the table ways to sell virtual assets for real money.

A cynical part of me wonders if the hope with NFTs from game developers was actually that it could run around this problem and provide a more direct way to allow monetary payouts without running into issues with regulations on gambling.
This touches on things I notice in modern literature, it’s not really about books. There’s a lot of these “book club” books that suck. I am 99% certain it’s just pay to play. The books are kind of melodramatic and not good, with basic prose and themes that are overdone, but will be well regarded as you say. I think it’s because there’s a lot of this culture around “being someone that reads books” so you have people that post memes or wear book t shirts or whatever. But they read the books npr and Oprah recommend.
I wrote a macOS app that supports using Vault Transit Engine keys with OpenSSH, as well as GnuPG and PKCS#11. (OpenSSH is supported via both the agent protocol and PKCS#11.) You can even use an Apple T2 (Secure Enclave) key for peer mTLS authentication to the Vault server. https://www.keymux.com/

Using this teams can share an SSH key without exposing the key; nor do you need to configure certificate PKI, use jump hosts, or otherwise change your existing software or workflows.
The market seemed to agree that OW1 was a good game. It had a good player count and looked like it made decent money. Until the end of 2019, when Activision/Blizzard decided to basically halt all work on OW1 in favor of work on OW2. It didn't help that Blizzard also moved all esports content (which they consolidated under their hat) from Twitch to Youtube at about the same time.
You are correct: but I think all these measures are in place because liability is placed on financial institutions rather than individual victims. The owners of the payment infrastructure are correctly motivated to holistically solve the problem, unlike in the US were the person woth the least power and control is burdened with having to contend with "Identity theft" and losing money by default to make up for the fraud.
I think part of the change is the white pages was distributed in hard copy in your community. So only a finite number of people would have access and it would be costly to re-publish or re-distribute that hard copy information. Now anyone in the world has access and its practically cost-less to re-publish and re-distribute the information in digital form.
The CRA isn't law yet.

Also, I don't see the problem myself:

> In order not to hamper innovation or research, free and open-source software developed or supplied outside the course of a commercial activity should not be covered by this Regulation. This is in particular the case for software, including its source code and modified versions, that is openly shared and freely accessible, usable, modifiable and redistributable. In the context of software, a commercial activity might be characterized not only by charging a price for a product, but also by charging a price for technical support services, by providing a software platform through which the manufacturer monetises other services, or by the use of personal data for reasons other than exclusively for improving the security, compatibility or interoperability of the software.

I'm not sure where people get the idea that donations are considered commercial activity. Support subscriptions and such make you liable (but I don't see why that would be a problem). Ubuntus's Snap store is a platform through which the manufacturer monetises other services. Half open source (i.e. FileZilla Pro) also counts as closed source software, of course.

Most of the protests seem to come from people who operate a business that sells their open source software and wants to remain off the hook to get an advantage over their closed source competition.
I use a USB security key for gpg-agent.

gpg-agent is used as an ssh-agent replacement (also replaces the venerable monkeysphere script). gpg agent forwarding is also needed via StreamLocalBindUnlink for signing built RPMs in a docker container on a remote (local LAN) Docker host. Sometimes rarely, I need to enable "ssh-agent" forwarding where I probably could proxyjump instead. My interactive ssh workflow is sometimes slowed as I use TOTP (via PAM) for 2FA. Noninteractive system accounts get dedicated ssh keys. host keys are constantly scanned and compared to a source of truth. Maybe I'll get around to deploying LDAP with OpenSSH-LPK to move away from flat files.

Knee-jerk suggestion to rewrite the world in Rust combined with formal verification.

But seriously, being an expert knife juggler is still gambling with the obvious compared to using safer tools in a safer manner. Rust needs the ubiquity of GCC[0] (partially by adding them to LLVM and adding std crates) and more attention paid to bloat (cargo-bloat, etc) before attempting to rewrite the world (apart from special cases).

And that is one of the main issues in the current WGA strike. Under the previous contract, writers were paid less for editing an existing script than for writing an original script. They are worried that producers will cut their incomes by using AI to write rough drafts, then pass it over to human writers to redo.

Because they want a bias-filtered selection of the internet. It is very obvious looking at the reddit comments that most are made by bots and not humans, the difference is that most behave similarly and the upvoting favors sameness.
My two cents based on how we use Salesforce

1- being able to bcc or better yet have a gmail extension to log emails sent to prospects and clients is a foundational requirement for us. Be sure to have that asap. Outside of being a CRM, our SF is the knowledge base of all customer interaction.

2- Opportunities and funnel management are critical workflows for us. Being able to define rules on qualification and auto activate / expire a prospect is important.

3- documentation is important. I know there are armies of SF consultants I can tap into if needed. In the absence of that, a strong wiki will be important as you start offering customization

4- speed speed speed. My team much preferred SF classic over lightening because it was significantly faster

5- for us, mobile is overrated. Most work is done on the laptop or desktop. Mobile is more about reading details and freshening up on client ahead of the meeting

Lastly, I’ve dabbled with the idea of offering a light-weight CRM to our clients (we serve a niche industry that has onerous onboarding requirements and the vast majority of clients don’t use an off the shelf CRM). Once you polish this off, if you’re open to chatting about a white labeled solution feel free to connect.

Good luck.
Not many things are automatic in research paper publishing… It all good old PDFs in which even the publication date doesn't always appear. You have to look up the title and find out in which journal / conference it's been published, and you get the date.

Anyway, it would not be fair to automatically invalidate papers citing retracted ones. Including:

- reproduction attempts

- some minor citation in related works

- it's usually not obvious that a paper is manipulated or even wrong without any bad faith involved

Now, I wish we could update papers with disclaimers and notes, but again, we are dealing with good old PDFs that are never going to be updated…

Good luck even noticing that a paper was retracted.

I wish we had better formats and publication processes.

It's a bizarre and blinkered article. The most immediate dangers are economic. We already have a hopelessly unstable economic system, with increasing swathes of the population economically disenfranchised. AI is more likely to accelerate that than prevent it.

The other immediate dangers are social and political. When one person with resources can run an AI-enhanced troll farm and social media PR engine - not even remotely science fiction - we have a serious problem.

Those threats are already politically and culturally existential.

And that's before anyone has even fitted a gun to an AI-powered autonomous drone. Or gunship.

AI is inherently conservative because it reinforces hierarchy. The AI-poor will have far less political, cultural, and personal leverage than the AI-rich.

Essentially it will have the same effects as money as a cultural and political practice - but much more so.
Yes they are. But it's not about that either. You are conflating end-user products with two companies developing to the same central point from opposing start positions. That is what this is about.
I find it the opposite. You have to actively clean a house, but do nothing and it won't be clean
Sure, WhatsApp could roll out an update that sneakily exfiltrates your local encryption keys and/or messages any day, or might have already done so. That's the case for most apps (yes, even open source ones, since at least the Apple App Store does not allow for deterministic builds.)

It's theoretically possible to improve on that, by e.g. providing a way to double-check all client-to-server communication, but that's extremely difficult to do without at the same time weakening the encryption (since it requires either deterministic encryption and/or leaking keys via a debugging interface). I believe Threema has done something like that at some point.

Telegram however wouldn't even need to, since practically all messages are already available to them server side.

I think that even without legacy admissions, you'll still get many/mostly wealthy kids there. You can see that in elite institutions which are purely meritocratic.
Keep an eye on gleam lang if you’re not already. It’s a language with an ML inspired type system (like rust) that compiles to erlang. It is likely too nascent to be used in production (in terms of tooling, ecosystem, stability, etc).

Your comment is pretty spot on about the admission dynamics.

> Legacy

I think it is more of a tip than you are making it out to be simply due to yield farming - the smart kid who has a Harvard parent is more likely to go to Harvard over Yale than a generic smart kid, so if you want to keep your admission rates as low as possible you tip legacy.

> 10-20 kids/year who get in this way who wouldn't otherwise.

They certainly exist, Harvard has the z-list.

The parent commentator made a good point that gymnasiums is where a lot of elitism happens, but I was talking about universities and I do not think we were talking about the same "elite" demographics.
Moreover, my OP was about how having a culture with elitist elements can provide a ladder for talented but not connected individuals, which is lacking in Germany, because for the most part there is a bigger divide between the educated middle class professions are the truly wealth capital owners in this land.

While I resonate with this, because I also went through a period of struggling with async stuff, I genuinely think this is because async is just hard in general. Done properly, it yields an immense amount of power, quite efficiently, but also opens up a lot of “degrees of freedom” about it can be operated, which leads to confusion.

A lot of the async stuff, how it actually worked, and how to actually use it, only clicked for me when I played around with Glommio, which runs an executor-per-core, and some of the constraints it imposed made understanding it all somewhat easier.

Hi there. Highlight.io maintainer/founder here. That's an interesting question. I am in the boat that these tools will start to consolidate over time, which is probably better for the end user (you!).

On our roadmap, we do have metrics and traces on the horizon. Also, on our session replay product, we've been recently getting lots of requests on the analytics ends, so an analytics product at some point is something we've thought about.

I do agree that it would be nice to have all the data in the same place (as a user of these types of tools). Another idea that we've toyed with is exposing a sql-like UI where people can query data arbitrarily.

Do any of the above points resonate? Thanks for thinking of us, and excited to see what the community thinks.
