On the flip side, try leading a squad of four soldiers who don’t want to be there. You can’t fire them. You can’t demote them. If you rely on authoritarianism, what happens when they say “No”. Are you going to try to get them arrested court martialed because they refused an order to pick up brass? You’ll be laughed out of command.

You have to motivate them and make them want to get the mission done. It’s far more challenging than any leadership I’ve done in the civilian world.
Its a wholesale club. The items aren't in permanent locations because they are making purchases in bulk when the price is advantageous to do so. This means they won't always have the same items all the time. The items you mention are in the same location regularly because the supporting infrastructure is permanent. Freezers for milk, desserts, the bakery and other products aren't going to move around very often.

For online ordering where do you want them to store your purchase? The whole layout of the store is that all available inventory is on the floor since its a warehouse by design. Target and Walmart are retail designed stores which has a different purpose in mind.

Seriously?, the parking is like any other store, there are peak and non-peak times.
> The whole experience of being a lone vulnerable pedestrian among a sea of cars is made even worse when you can't see the people in the cars (but you know they can see you).

It's even worse than that. You don't know they can see you, you know they could see you but you cannot know if they do see you. That's terrible for pedestrian safety.
they can both be moving in a bad direction you know?
Yes, PeerDB can stream query data continuously. You need to specify a watermark column (incremental id or timestamp column) as a part of the mirror. PeerDB uses this column to keep track of data that needs to be synced.

I‘m shocked how unbelievable bad the recommendations from Spotify are.
They never were any good, but they also don’t improve, despite how often they brag about some new recommendation engine, feature or improvement on their engineering blog.

A multi billion dollar company that fails so hard at this.

The best recommendations I got were from Pandora, unbelievable good and on point and that was 15 years ago. I can not use them anymore in Europe so I m stuck with Spotify.

Maybe this GPT4 based project will give me better recommendations.

In light of the release of Oppenheimer, people have been talking about, basically, the other side of the development of atomic weapons.

John Hersey's "Hiroshima" article from the August 23, 1946 edition of the New Yorker came up as the definitive piece on the immediate impact of the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima, and it is a gripping read: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1946/08/31/hiroshima
Wow. Had no idea. Where did you learn that?
I grew up in a low income, immigrant suburb and the poor rode bikes. They didn't wear bike kit and they had crappy mountain bikes with franken parts, not an 11 speed electronic shift bike. Often they either couldn't afford a car or the family only had enough money for 1 car, which in patriarchal immigrant households went to mom and the kids she drove around while dad biked to his back of house or construction job.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
> I find it surprising how few protocols (besides Cap'n Proto) have promise pipelining.

Pipelining is a bad idea. It reifies object instances, and thus makes robust implementation much harder. You no longer make stateless calls, but you are running functions with particular object instances.

And you immediately start getting problems. Basically, Client Joe calls Service A and then pass the promised result of the call to Service B. So that Service B will have to do a remote call to Service A to retrieve the result of the promise.

This creates immediate complications with security boundaries (what is your delegation model?). But what's even worse, it removes the backpressure. Client Joe can make thousands of calls to Service A, and then pass the not-yet-materialized results to Service B. Which will then time out because Service A is being DDoS-ed.
One popular and complicated way is kubernetes.

I enjoy using k3s with argocd. The containers are built using GitHub actions but you can probably use many other tools.
I don't blame them for failing to double check their results.

I blame them for giving obviously incorrect excuses on GitHub when such an obvious mistake is pointed out.

There is no way they could be at the stage they claim to be in their program (having just defended their thesis) and think the excuses they gave on GitHub are reasonable.
We use high quality sensor modules like e.g. the SenseAir S8 NDIR CO2 sensor that is made in Sweden and also Sensirion modules from Switzerland. These are much more expensive than less accurate sensor modules that you find in many other monitors.
Hehe - sadly watching this play out at work this very week.

The big one I've observed is people who shoot upward in an organization by being obsequious to those above them and brutal to those below.
As I understand it, the new model is that the process gets an opened fd passed by the broker and can then read and write to it as fd permissions allow.

The old model howevwr was that read and write were translated to rpc calls to the broker. In that model you can take write access away even after you have given it to a process, because you have not actually given it. All writes still go through the broker process.
You do realize that you "don't exist" only until one pissed off neighbor complains to OFCOM about you after your cat has pooped on their lawn one too many times?

This is a rather incredible mindset to have, IMO. Even for me who doesn't quite subscribe to the constant Big Brother panic.

This law gives the government a huge loaded gun that they can use to blast pretty much anyone they please with. But no worries, they aren't going to use it on you because you are too unimportant?

And that still completely ignores the various collateral damages - such as if encryption is effectively outlawed because the regulatory hurdles associated with it are simply too high to bother with (just look at how many US websites rather block access from the EU instead of having to deal with GDPR compliance), then even if you aren't a target for the enforcement of this law your life could be very badly affected when your service provider gets hacked or your data get intercepted and some account of yours gets hijacked.

>buying into heavily corporatised consumerism in the presence of more 'authentic' options is responsible for part of the stigma of such places

I'm not sure it's that, since 99% of the consumption of those same snobs are heavily corporatised consumerism. It's just the expensive kind marketed to more affluent suckers. They're for example OK with Starbucks, the kind of "heavily corporatised consumerism", and all kind of BS upscale consumerist brands like Lululemon.
Some cities like Portland, Oregon have made it a violation of city code to refuse to serve pedestrians and bicyclists through the Drive Through window if the lobby is closed.

There are still some businesses that violate this, but at least you can report it and they will be fined, and threatened with revocation of their business license.
> “I fought the worst of the worst: ISIS, Al Qaeda, the Taliban,” Skull Games president and former Delta Force soldier Jeff Tiegs has said. “But the adversary I despise the most are human traffickers.” Tiegs has told interviewers that he takes “counterterrorism / counterinsurgency principles” and applies them to these targets.

I agree with this. Human trafficking is a nice way of saying slavery. Human traffickers are some of the worst criminals on earth and I'm very happy that the counterintelligence techniques we've developed are used against them.

> The attempt to merge computerized counterinsurgency techniques with right-wing evangelism has left some Skull Games participants uncomfortable. One experienced attendee of the January 2023 Skull Games was taken aback by an abundance of prayer circles and paucity of formal training.

However, this is cultish stuff. It seems to me that Tiegs' statement above is cover for what seems to be a religio-political organization with overarching goals. It co-opts the good intentions of decent human beings who oppose slavery and sexual abuse into a situation that seems pretty exploitative on its own. Despicable.

we have almost 10m MAU, which would increase in comming months to more than 50MAU. half of this numbers are on our blog which is now running by wordpress but soon we might migrate it to laravel with wordpress backend as an admin panel.
these numbers[data] came from the article :

[In 2019, 88% of the time L.A. County sheriff’s officers spent on stops was for officer-initiated stops rather than in response to calls. The overwhelming majority of that time – 79% – was spent on traffic violations. By contrast, just 11% of those hours was spent on stops based on reasonable suspicion of a crime.

In Riverside, about 83% of deputies’ time spent on officer-initiated stops went toward traffic violations, and just 7% on stops based on reasonable suspicion.

Moreover, most of the stops are pointless, other than inconveniencing citizens, or worse – “a routine practice of pretextual stops,” researchers wrote. Roughly three out of every four hours that Sacramento sheriff’s officers spent investigating traffic violations were for stops that ended in warnings, or no action].

Guidelines for keeping pace with innovation (2017)
Because the publishers/producers took the risk. They paid you for your work, didn't they? Move on instead of complaining. Yes, it's hard finding work in the entertainment biz (much like sports and arts), but having to pay more residuals than bargained-for only takes away opportunities for you and others to get more work.

Again, I am not against residuals, but a contract is a contract and the right to contract is between individuals. Any "force" (unions, government) that twists and turns the right to contract is anti-individual, anti-freedom, and most certainly a group vs group powerplay that does not give the average individual any advantages - only the empowered individuals gain anything (at the expense of the unempowered).

It's not the job of HuggingFace to certify datasets. It's simply outside the scope of their work.
It wouldn’t demonstrate it completely but would add to the evidence against it. I’m not suggest the entire idea of unions rest on this one outcome. Probabilities are updated with new evidence, there is either a relationship or there isn’t, it can’t be one sided. Since there appears to be a lot of weight placed on this one outcome from this being both a powerful union as well as an exemplar for prospective software unions, I think it’s fair to say that the failure of the Hollywood unions would massively negatively impact the prospects of software unions.

Leibniz dreamed that we would be able to completrly determine if some claim was true or not. We can't do that for all claims, but at least in mathematics, we can prove with absolute certainty that some axioms will lead you to other claims. So at least a little piece of his dream is a reality.
A statistic from the article. Something I hadn't thought of:

"Today, more than 4,500 Starlink satellites are in the skies, accounting for more than 50 percent of all active satellites. They have already started changing the complexion of the night sky, even before accounting for Mr. Musk’s plans to have as many as 42,000 satellites in orbit in the coming years."

I'm not surprised by this, especially on the trait of fearlessness. Check many successful entrepreneurs, and you'll observe that they're crazy.

Take Musk for example, you really have to be fearless and delusional to think that you can build a successful electric carmaker from scratch and a company making re-usable rockets at the same time. These traits serve him positively in business, but it's no surprise to also see it manifest negatively in other areas...

> how Muni trains close their doors and pull one foot out of the station just to wait at a red light

There are safety and scheduling reasons for this. They are not merely trying to snub riders. For example, the light rail trains here have a standard for how long they open their doors at each station. It's something like 14 seconds. A vehicle with open doors will also allow passengers to disembark; it's a two-way passage. So should they sit in the station with closed doors, or push off a few yards down to the intersection? Now, other motorists see a train stopped at a station and they think one thing. They see a train stopped and waiting for a red light and they know that it will proceed through on green. It seems weird to imagine a train that lingers at the station as if it's boarding but it's not, it's really waiting for the light to change, and then it will pounce on the opportunity. That's less than predictable behavior, as far as other motorists are concerned.

Our transit authority reminds riders to arrive at the stop 5 minutes early. We're also reminded that if we miss this one, another one is on the way. Passengers need not inherit that toxic road rage.
They removed this feature. Now there is a psuedo-replacement called "enhanced shuffle" which interleaves recommended songs in your shuffled playlist. Unfortunately, this drastically reduces the amount of song discovery per unit time.

Good luck with that in Switzerland where this is 100% legal.
I would guess your problem is probably scheduler based. The default(ish) Linux scheduler operates in 100ms increments, the first use of a client takes 3-4 round-trips. TCP opens, block, request is sent, the client blocks on write, the client attempts to read and blocks on read. If CPU usage is high momentarily, each of these yields to another process and your client isn't scheduled for another 100ms

I live in Boston and would still use the T buses as an example of bus service as an afterthought. The buses are loud, uncomfortable, bus stops frequently have no shelter and are on busy roads with no buffer from 2-3 lanes of traffic, and there are almost no dedicated bus lanes so the bus gets stuck in the same traffic as all the cars.

> I find it bizarre that people now use the term "coding" to mean programming. For decades, we used the word "coding" for the work of low-level staff in a business programming team.

I totally agree. I also don't understand why people who use the term "coding" make themselves smaller than the activity they actually mean, "programming". Programming is so much more than just {en|de}coding (given) stuff…
It's been around a lot longer. We've called it Shell Shock, War Neurosis, Battle Fatigue and several other things. It's well documented. PTSD, imo, is just another layer of indirection when referring to trauma. It's name provides significantly less meaning than something like "shell shock" which gets right to the point of the matter. PTSD was certainly appreciated. Patton famously got a reaming from Eisenhower for how he treated shell shocked troops during the war.

Expecting that any key in redis will be there next time you read it is a ticking timebomb. Redis is not a database. It's a cache.

Unless you're using AOF mode with fsync always, you can lose writes. If you're doing that, you should be using a real database instead.
Even with those mitigations, they're still more deadly.
It's not terribly complex, and it's all scripted. I don't like my identity being trackable across services, or across areas of my life. For instance, dickheads have created databases of public keys scraped from services like github, which can be used to identify the vast majority of github users whenever they ssh into some other service. By default, the ssh client will try to authenticate with every available keypair until it finds a match, which can further leak information about you(r machine).
Sure, these particular examples are concerned with morality, but the problem is more general and limits the value of language models because they can be hacked for other purposes. A good example that's been going around is having an agential model that manages you emails. Someone sends you an email using prompt injection to compel the agent to delete all your emails. Or forward all you emails to another address.

If there isn't a way to secure the behaviour of AI models against reliable exploits then the utility of the models is dramatically limited.
