> Abstractions could be leaky but they work for the most part.

Your abstraction of abstractions is leaky and is not working.

Technical analysis is not an abstraction of market behavior. It the fetichization of linear 2d representations of historical price timeseries.

In your analogy it would be to look at pictures of chips, identify faces and other objects in the clusters of transistors and argue that is the interaction of these patterns that determines chip function.
Very interested, any heuristics to identify these candidates post hiring

Check out Synology NAS

They're extremely versatile with loads of first & third party apps, protocols, integrations, and possible connections.

You can use the cloud as a backup or hybrid, or even stick another NAS elsewhere and make your own cloud of sorts. I don't have experience with load balancing to different sites but it's probably possible.

The backup features are tough to beat cost and function-wise, especially for m.365, g.workspace and hypervisor/vm.

They connect to both enterprise and personal cloud stuff (azure, OneDrive, Google drive, etc.)
They also provide iscsi, replication and so much more.

And yes there are mail and calendar apps provided by Synology. You can also find and install third party apps for it, as well as use docker to host anything.

Oh and some of the apps like "photos" can replace, for example, Google photos both the service and phone app. It will do face recognition and automatic scene recognition all on-device.

I've probably only barely touched on what they can do, all without a steep learning curve.

They're the bee's knees.
Looks like the title of this post has been fixed.

People downvote facts here, and persecute you for providing corrections that are helpful to everyone. It's infantile and depressing.

They need to stop and think: How do people learn? Often from reading. Where do people do most of their reading now? Online. So when you attack people who correct incorrect writing online, you're attacking people who want to learn. Most foreign-language speakers, for example, WANT to be corrected so they know how to speak and write the language.

The Luxury Home Market Confronts Its New Reality: Not Enough Buyers and Sellers
> new measure, which was implemented April 1, requires sellers to pay 4% on sales of homes priced between $5 million and $10 million, and 5.5% on sales of properties at $10 million or above. “We were flooded with shoppers in March. Then, things just came to a screeching halt. It was such a change in the amount of people coming to view the home that it felt like it wasn’t even on the market,” she said.

Interesting re the effect of mansion tax in L.A. Not much of a revenue raiser if sales are hurt. Must hurt property taxes also as less reappraisals and lower values.

The point is, you don't know whether it was fair either and you have no idea about the relative negotiating powers of the parties.

Maybe the AC portion of the deal translated directly into wage dollars on the negotiating table. Maybe it was a "pick 3 out of 4 deal".

Until now I've convinced that people don't code Rust for higher performance, it's a cult and people use that to be looked cool. Rust are not some kind of black wand that can zap your 100k lines of C/C++ code to be 100 lines of code with the same speed. If you want high performance then it's not just the language which is fast, it's the way you implement your idea.

People are always talking shit about things to make people think they are smart, like people around me think they are Larry Wall, bashed Java for being slow, but they don't know that a lot of important, performant thing are coded in Java.

If you want raw performance, use C/C++. If you want simplicity, then use Python. If you want reliability and safety, then use Java/Go.

> adjust your paths as necessary. It has a tendency to talk to itself.

This is always a fun surprise. What I've seen help, especially with chat models, is to use a prompt template. Some tools (e.g. https://ollama.ai/ – mentioned in the article) use a default, model-specific prompt template when you run the model. This is easier for users since they can just input your chat messages and get answers. The hard part is every model is trained (and behaves) differently.

With llama.cpp you'd need wrap your prompt text with the right template. For llama 2, the facebook developers' generation code wraps the system prompt and user prompts in specific tags (
{system prompt}
 and 
{user prompt}
) respectively): https://github.com/facebookresearch/llama/blob/main/llama/ge....

Worth noting that customizing prompt templates can be fun – you don't have to use "prescribed" one – I've had a model generate a conversation between a few characters that talk to each other for example – it's pretty entertaining!
Yeeeeech, I can't handle "the poors are addicted" narrative.

Smoking was high-class fashionable awhile back. Then the lower classes caught on as disposable incomes rose and factories made tobacco products within their reach. Necessarily the high class abandoned it because it no longer distinguished them.

Your high-class grandchildren will smoke(+). It's purely cyclical fashion and health be damned. To be crude, they will have to compete to get into each others' beds somehow and what better way than eschewing 100 years of their class' ground-truth advice about far-distant medical outcomes?

well, in most cases you don't buy directly from the manufacturer but from a shop who can send the device to the original manufacturer if appropriate. but i have also doubt that anything can be so expensive to recycle that it would cause a problem. how big could possibly be the difference between an expensive to recycle washing machine and a cheap one? not to mention laws that favor the use of materials that are easy to recycle. and a brief search suggests that some in europe are considering taxes for the use of difficult to recycle materials, like plastic.

It's obviously "better" as there is no victim. I'm guessing in many cases the addict would be satisfied with artificial images, and no longer seek real images.

> "Justice Department officials who investigate child exploitation have said those images are still illegal even if they’re AI-generated"

The amount of surveillance, censorship and rules needed in society to catch a few sickos making bad AI image choices, is not worth the price. Go after the real abuse images all day, but artificial images can only ever be at the extreme end of distasteful, similar to horror-themed images. A sick arrangement of pixels. It has more in common with a pencil sketch than a real photo.

I have used Qucs (not QucsStudio) for years. Nice article, but it doesn't touch my two biggest pain points:

(1) Transient analysis is unreliable. Jacobian error. Jacobian error. JACOBIAN ERROR. Fixing this involves magic thought patterns (is there something in this circuit that might be unstable? maybe throwing resistors everywhere will help? Or changing the minimum timestep?) and luck. I have spent more time dealing with this than any other thing in this software; often it's easier to give up and build the circuit IRL.

The software gives you NO hints or help as to what is causing these sim divergences or how to fix it. Brick wall. I exploit a bug to get the graphs to re-render using only the half-calculated results, so I can _try_ to see the circuit behaviour just before the issue, but often this doesn't work.

EDIT: Sorry the article does touch on this in the conclusion:

> Obviously, QucsStudio also has its limitations. It is sometimes frustrating to find that a simulation stops converging when a parameter is slightly changed. In general, using QucsStudio requires a deeper knowledge than other tools, typically paid tools, where the convergence of simulations is more refined. This can lead to unexpected delays in the design process.

Frustrating indeed >:(

(2) Interface uses an old version of Qt, which my distro doesn't provide the libs for. This means I can't compile or run Qucs any more. Instead I run the Windows .exe using wine (note: crashes if you have any themes/visual styles setup in winecfg, make sure to go back to the classic windows theme).

Are either of these things improved in QucsStudio?

No, high frequency trading makes money via arbitraging across markets, market making, and some other strategies that make its actors come out ahead on average.

Technical analysis is largely astrology for stock markets for reasons many others here have already given, as far as I understand. (Note that it’s still possible to make money using a trading scheme based on astrology, namely if the market structure itself makes any participant come out ahead on average, and the scheme isn’t bad enough to outweigh that inherent advantage.)

Those 25,000 + 7,500 jobs will probably make it harder for Amazon to hire drivers in some areas.
Let's say the big tech company pays you 350k/year and the startup offers you 150k/year. If you were to keep working where you are, but invest 200k/year into this startup, how much would they owe you? If they've just sold 40% of their company for 800k, your 200k buys 10%. And keep in mind that investors get special terms that protect their investments, so the founders can't just print more shares to dilute the investors' stake. With this in mind, if they offer you 1% of common stock vested over 4 years with no contract to protect your share, they have a very low esteem of your math skills.

Popular intellectuals always try to give socialism a pass. It is left-wing sentiments—or more generally, anti-free-market sentiments—that enable industries to convince the populace to support laws that give them feudalistic control. See how the Hotel Industry successfully used these to lock down major short-term rental markets:

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/16/technology/inside-the-hot...

And what can reasonably be described as socialism in the context of these type of broad-strokes grand narrative discussions: compulsory income redistribution to fund social programs, has massively grown—at the expense of the private sector's share of GDP—over the last 60 years:

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/social-spending-oecd-long...

What has happened is that socialism has advanced due to the nature of democracy and short-term voter considerations, while the private sector has become more feudalistic due to the expansion of regulations (e.g. 5% of jobs required an occupational license in 1950. Today it's 30%).

Another subject that intellectuals of this type won't touch is unions. Doctorow is well aware that all of the major institutions involved in the generation of ideas, like journalism and academia, are captured by unions. He's going to remain politically correct and not talk about the rent-extraction that unions engage in. e.g. unionized government sector workers in California now earn twice as much as private sector workers:

https://www.hoover.org/research/california-state-government-...

Not only are government sector unions seeing their income, as a share of GDP rise as they become kingmakers in municipal and state politics, but they are also successfully getting compliant governments to agree to collective bargaining terms that increasingly shield them from accountability, e.g. only 75 public school teachers were fired in New York over 16 months in 2015 and 2016:

Of all the "big tech" companies, Amazon's monopoly position is the one that worries me the most.

Google, Apple, Netflix, Facebook - you can imagine how a clever competitor can get a foothold to compete in those markets. But Amazon's ownership over the entire physical logistics supply chain through to last-mile delivery is just such a huge moat that keeps getting larger and larger.

Yeah, there is a cold water California current that flows south along the coast, but it is the green band of water in that image (>16.7 c, >62 f) in the higher latitudes (>45" N) that is the warm water circulating.

In general:

1. There should be an easy-to-use API, CLI, library, and data (sqlite db or whatever) to query package metadata efficiently.

2. The mythological purity of rolling releases building against edge versions without dependency constraints or maintaining stable versioning causes problems in the real world(tm). There are many cases where past versions are needed. Example: ffmpeg is buggy as hell and has to be managed very carefully. Another example: binutils, gcc, mpfr, mpc, and toolchain friends have to be built together with compatible versions. Further example: don't compile anything with Clang/LLVM 14+ unless you want all of your code to break because some genius decided to break the world out of ideological perfectionism. macports, Homebrew, nix, and Arch are just some who are guilty of this sin.

Power Delivery ("PD") requires chips inside the cable's connectors to work. The chips provide information on the cable's capabilities. No chip, then standard voltage, standard current only.

Thunderbolt is 40 Gbit/s over two serial lanes. That's 20 billion bits per second over a single link. I'm not an expert in this field (i.e., the field of high-throughput cables) at all, but that doesn't sound very realistic to me for regular cabling. But I guess the use of copper, gold contacts(?), differential signaling, shortness of the cable (or alternatively active components), and an immense amount of shielding make it possible. These cables are quite expensive.
