You're making the stated problem someone else's problem. That doesn't make it go away, that just makes it not your problem, yes?

Depends on how much you are paying.

If your company is working with a contracting/consulting company (eg. Infosys, TCS) then you're not paying enough. Most of those consulting/contracting firms are trying to pay $3-8k/yr when market rate at Product Driven Companies across India is $20-50k/yr now.

Even farming pays around $3-8k/yr (especially when factoring that farm income isn't taxed in India).

Plenty of American companies are fine paying the true market rate (eg. With returnees from America, Canada, Germany, SG, etc) and haven't had those kinds of issues.
Not OP but I’d assume medical professionals, teachers, engineers, artists, food producers, workers in a (sustainable) power plant etc….
Thanks for sharing! I'm a bit confused with the fluency score, what does it mean exactly? It would be good to have some feedback and pointers for improvement, otherwise I don't see myself using it for long.

So why not fake data and cheat? You might get discovered, but by then, you'd have given tons of TED talks, speaking engagements and probably made millions of dollars. You get to keep that and you get coast relax as a professor for the rest of your life.
I've had fraudulent charges on my Apple card multiple times. They were almost always detected by Goldman Sachs. I was issued new cards (and virtual cards) immediately, and nothing happened to my Apple ID. I think there's far more to this post on Reddit than we're seeing.
To look at it another way, if the money saved from commuting is put into home office setup everyone should eventually have something decent.

Ugh, I dread having to listen to everyone's hyper personal music because they swear up and down to the point of tears that "IT'S THE BEST SONG EVER CREATED! EVER!!!", while the constantly prod for you to affirm how amazing the song is.

Bruh, music is subjective as hell, and I can already tell I hate this song.
I guess I somewhat agree in principle but an indiscriminate tax cut/deduction/universal income would be a much better approach. Easier to administers and much fairer.
Interesting. How has corporate greed had such a macro effect?
FFT is memory bound (it’s N log N flops for N bytes, so little arithmetic). GPU HBM is much faster than DRAM, so generally it’s much faster on GPU.

They didn't say it was a fascist plot. And, well, it's factual that the origin of policing in the U.S. is in enforcing slavery and post-slavery racism. All it takes is a large number of fascist-leaning people with government blessing to self-perpetuate. CAF is one way that happens. Cops rob people and then buy fancy coffee makers and other things to make their jobs more enjoyable. Very simple incentives enforce the power structure.
American police are the way they are (including their ability to arbitrarily and indefinitely seize your property without charging you with a crime, as discussed here) because nobody with the power to put meaningful checks on them has chosen to do so, and in the absence of checks police organizations tend to evolve into state-sanctioned criminal gangs.

That's the picture as it exists today. If you don't see existing power structures anywhere in that picture, you may need [new] glasses.
> You advertise in publications or spaces that will attract people interested in your product or service.

Are those publications most popular products, the online versions, selling advertising in the way their print only counterparts have? Or, are they just offering you targeting through their already extant advertising setup?

> Don't tell me that bakeries or t-shirt shops or auto detailers can't thrive without targeted marketing.

Local advertising and national advertising are two entirely different things and the campaigns even have two entirely different purposes and metrics for measurement.

One of the great forces of the internet was to allow me to do regular and successful business with niche operations that may not be local to me. It was supposed to expand upon the previously existing model. Adtech is trying to stand across this gap, which still hasn't been filled for anyone outside of a local goods retailer.
>At worst it seems to me like they discovered a cool new superconductor that may have commercial applications. At best, they may have a variant of this material that really is a room temperature superconductor. Either way, there is an important scientific discovery here.

I feel like this whole thing is going to be graphene all over again. A massive initial hype around "world changing tech" that ends up being very difficult and costly to scale and produce commercially.

Probably we'll see some niche applications in industry after a decade of further refinement, but I'm not holding my breath for hoverboards any time soon.
Typically, I run through lists like to-dos for companies/projects, the day's agenda, topics/ideas, recollection of the previous day, reflection on mental and emotional state.

Some days are more structured than others, and I don't try to conform too tightly to any particular structure. The goal is to get my brain outputting something, and later in my morning I'll transform or rewrite whatever I spit out. During very busy or demanding periods this also ends up functioning as my primary daily journal entry.
Was it at least one of the hardened forks of Magento 1?!
There’s a Grand Canyon sized chasm between creating a “low pressure superconductor” and creating a room-temperature superconductor and, unfortunately, Evel Knievel wasn’t a co-author.

While the amount of minutes & attentions that are generated from spam calls helps the telcos, because they get paid either way... that doesn't mean they're negligent.
They just don't have the right tools to police this since they're common carriers. Things are changing little by little and with upcoming changes in telco infrastructure, I expect Q4 this year to show a strong signal of what the future holds.

>it is only the minority of DIY taxpayers who insist on paper filing their income tax returns

This is a gross misrepresentation of the situation. Being forced to chop down and bleach trees if you don’t want to pay a bribe to a rent seeking company that lobbies directly against your interests is not “insisting on paper filing” at all.
Yes, I have a desktop calculator primarily because I like using RPN, and there are very few software RPN calculators _that aren't just HP emulators._ In a pinch I will use PCalc in RPN mode on iPadOS, and Droid48 on Android, but those just can't beat the tactile sensation of real buttons.

I bought a SwissMicros DM42: the build quality is great, the e-ink display works really nice for a calculator, and it sips power compared to more recent graphing calculators. (I've had this thing for over a year and it's still showing a full charge on the CR2032 battery it shipped with. My HP 50g used to demolish a set of like 3 or 4x AAA batteries every 2-3 months.) My only complaint is the rubber feet have exposed my office desk as not being a truly flat surface.[1] (I also have access to an HP-15C (both the original and a clone), but I like being able to see the whole stack in XYZT mode. I have no mind's eye, so seeing only the one register is torture for me.)

>I just wish I could be more honest; I think it would be a win-win for everyone.

That's a fantasy, unfortunately. You have to play their game the way they want it played. Nobody will trust you if you claim to be omnipotent. They're really looking for people who can be molded, not people who are super-proficient out of the gate. Also, if you're too good, your superior might have to worry about his own job security. Sorry to say it but you have to swallow your pride and play the game. Or, better, start your own business.
Amazing app. I am trying to learn dutch with this. It pushes you to converse in the language of choice. I also tried to get translation in english. Could be a good feature to understand new words and form better sentences.
I want closure on the 25 year old woman and the $100k she was transporting in a suitcase. Did she go to court to get it back? Or is this a situation where 9 times out of 10 the cash was ill-gotten and so it is forfeited to avoid criminal charges?

Aren't schema.org and Wikidata/Wikipedia still powering most of Google's rich search results?

I heard them announce the new result page with bard but I probably didn't see it because of ad-blindness or it's not yet releases in my location, have to look this up...
Do you have a breakdown that distinguishes that?
It's a coil. You can just place another inductor around it and increase / decrease that current at will. This is how Kamerlingh Onnes injected current into his superconducting media during the original experiments and that is a two-way street.

What a hilarious mistranslation. Somehow it is fitting though, as a totally unprecedented floating material.
This is not a pro-labor argument, never was. This is akin to saying that if some workers have it rough, then everyone should share the pain.

Back in the day in Europe, there was an air controller strike where the media tried to frame it as a bunch of entitled, overpaid assholes, ruining holidays for everybody. It was disheartening to see how many actually fell for that message, asking why someone should make over 100k euro a year, instead of questioning why they themselves were making so little.
Are salaries the only source of income that they derive from the medical industry? My doctor is a part owner of his provider network which also is the insurer.
Have you ever had an itch that you just can't reach?
Really? The official extension works fine for me. What issue are you running into?
CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) Complaints are a _powerful_ tool that I highly recommend people take advantage of. If a company is giving you the run around then filing one of these will get someone reaching out to you (no holds, no wait times) and they are highly motivated to solve the issue.
That is infuriating, to say the least. :(
That seems like an attempt to set up a futile exercise in needle-threading that relies on narrow worst-case-scenario definitions of "superintelligence"/AGI.

It's too intelligent to restrict our constraints.

but

It's not too intelligent to be "aligned" to underlying intentions and values?

That approach doesn't even work on humans, why would it work on a superintelligence?
Finally, at least it's promising that the process looks to be less bad
How many would be civilians who were drafted to be soldiers are you willing to sacrifice so that you don't kill 'civilians'? If you are talking professional armies it is one argument, but when you are talking civilians that have been dragged into a conflict their nation did not start are they 100% not-civilian simply because of circumstance? Being a drafted non-aggressor army should also be part of the consideration in my mind.
And Russia seems to not have a sensible leader.
Sounds like a nice incentive to charge people with crimes they didn't commit...
> Civil forfeiture should have a time boundary. If police seize your property, they should have 90 days to indite you with a crime

I think you are slightly confused. Civil asset forfeiture does not require any crime (hence civil asset forfeiture, rather than criminal asset forfeiture), and the government charges the property itself, the owner is a third party claimant.
> Most people would rather pay a $25 overdraft fee, than not go overdrawn and keep the $25. That's what the fees popularity tells us.

That is not the case. In the US, only 41% of the people who went overdrawn did so willingly. About 20% knew they were low on funds and expected their deposit to clear first, and for the remainder, the overdraft was a surprise.[1]

The popularity of fees indicates that those who charge them want to keep charging them; it does not indicate that those who pay the fees are in favour of going overdrawn and paying fees.

Why should I write my own HTML and CSS over using what Bootstrap gives me? I can't think of a single reason to believe that my HTML/CSS will look or perform better than Bootstrap's.

Especially since you can selectively import only the components you use. You're essentially betting that you can like for like implement what Bootstrap gives you better than what they can. Which just seems like a terrible bet regardless of how good that particular developer may be.
I've thought about this too. The instruments themselves can be synthesized for extremely high quality audio. All we need is the musical structure - the MIDI.
Yeah I think most people would agree that a new employees first week would usually be more productive in the office with someone sitting next to them helping.
Marvelous! One of the best applications of a ChatGPT backend that I've seen yet. It's even remarkable to talk in your own native language to ChatGPT, but there is just so much room to build out the next great language learning app here.
OK now do the bigger providers that allow robotexting without consent...

I received unsolicited texts from a "Buy your house cash" company last year. Of course, they did not identify the company name in the texts, not even with prompting...

I was able to trace the number to a larger provider... [0] The provider was unwilling to tell me who originally called me. Which is strange. If a company wants my business, shouldn't they be willing to say who they are? If a VOIP/TOIP provider doesn't disclose who communicates with you, isn't that a way to shield harassment?

But, as always, it's about who pays the most money to the lawmakers via lobbying...

[0] - By 'Large', I will say that they are a provider for Microsoft Teams Voice calls/texts in the US.
Good question. I looked through literature to see whether anyone had come up with any good ways of measuring fluency, and there are a couple out there.

The key indicators that kept coming up were the number of unique words used and the speed at which you speak, so they're involved. I'm hesitant to give the full equation, because I thought it might be better to leave some mystery so we aren't consciously trying to game it while we learn.

It is by no means perfect, but I think it's useful to have some objective metric to track progress.
Urbit stems from a politically unacceptable author, and is far too much ideology, not usecase. I'm convinced it has no chance at all.
> They have own Autonomous Systems with own anycast IP addresses.

> It is quite expensive for an indie project. Not to mention legal support for compliance in every country of presence. To block 0.x% of visitors coming from CloudFlare is much cheaper for a small project than to go this road.

I don't buy this. I'm running my own AS and anycast services for £10pm (my ISP are sponsoring my allocations from RIPE).

Also, it feels like Cloudflare's DNS service is more than just 0.x% of the internet....?
That seems like the point of the company demonym, got to drink that kool aid. What I find personality disingenuous (or perhaps even insidious) is the push to make everyone feel like they are an integral part of a group and then treat them like disposable objects when it’s more convenient at that moment.
Even then, maybe it's actually the crew that took a couple of additional crates of whiskey/cigarettes as a side-gig (pretty normal even today) and not on the owners' orders, good luck trying to prove it or anything at all, really.
We're not doing anything differently. Regional and rural property prices are dropping relative to state capitals now.

During COVID some people left the biggest cities to live somewhere without lockdowns. This was a fairly small number in absolute terms but it pushed prices up in specific desirable local market and really stretched services. That's slowly reversing now.
That would be insufficient for a number of reasons, including that even if you only collect non-PII (and don't let's get started on what "PII" actually is), if you collect enough of it and correlate it in databases (like ad companies do), then it's all personally identifying.

But I think that's not the main reason it's not sufficient. The main reason, in my view, is because it's still companies spying on me, my machines, and/or my use of my machines. Even if the data is genuinely anonymous, if you don't have my informed consent then collecting it is spying and unethical.

If we're going to have regulation (and it's increasingly looking like any solution will have to be), then the regulation should be about the collection of the data.
Quite often you'll find that the doctors office is part of a larger system for an entire medical center. Your call can get routed out any open physical line. These days fully VOIP systems will mask the number as the primary, but some systems still have physical connectivity to the phone companny.
I think God makes sense as a character, but only if you see him as a "person" with desires, flaws and some character development. If you treat him like some omnipotent, omniscient, unchanging, immutably good being (as some religious people like to do) you get into lots of contradictions
It's totally unfair. Unfortunately, the reality is that capital is highly mobile while labor is not. In an ideal world, capital gains would be taxed much higher than income from labor. However, is too easy to moved the capital to a place where it's taxed at a lower rate.
So, let me get this straight, pay a monthly fee for the privilege of not displaying your paying customer status. Is this perhaps the most absurd virtual service ever?

What will be next- everyone gets the blue check except the people who pay for the privilege of hiding it?
What is the relevance of the Abraham Lincoln quote? He is not noted for his economic policy. In fact most presidents of his era had very bad economic policy and engaged in a great deal of protectionism, colonialism, cronyism, and inefficient agricultural subsidies, among other harmful measures.
We also don't know its critical field strength. The original measurement from Korea was low. That could improve as they improve synthesis, but could be problem with the material. There are lots of high temperature superconductors that aren't useful; YBCO is important because of high field strength and liquid nitrogen coooling.

I'm sure there are lots of uses for low current room-temperature superconductor. But powerful magnets and long-distance power transmission require large currents and big magnetic fields.

> why wouldn't talented Indians leave the country in search for better wages

1. Living far away from your entire family sucks. You'll miss birthdays, weddings, funerals, and plenty of wholesome moments with family

2. The talent doesn't really leave India anymore. Product companies (both MNCs and Local) can pay $20-50k/yr now in India, which is roughly comparable to the rest of Eurasia.

Working at top Western companies like Amazon, Google, MS, Oracle, etc means that your mid-career TC can hit $60-80k/yr.

3. Depending on the industry, this shift has already happened. In the Cybersecurity, Infrastructure, and Cloud space, other than the main CSPs, most hiring of talent is now in Israel and India due to the lack of training in kernel development, OS, networking, DBs, etc at American universities.
IMO Tailwind only really makes sense if you're using a component-based framework. Trying to adopt it in a vanilla Django app (with monolithic templates) will lead to lots of duplication.

Just to extend what you are saying, they will also use LLMs to divest themselves of any responsibility. They'll say something to the effect of "this is an expert AI system and it says x. You have to trust it. It's been trained on a million years of expert data."

We're talking about people that were at zero risk to be drafted as soldiers. You can put civilians in quotes but these were actual civilians. Boys too young to be drafted, women, girls, babies... Targeting them was a huge mistake, especially because that ordnance could have been put to far better use a few kilometers away, 30 seconds flying time.
Guilt in criminal contexts is assessed under the "reasonable doubt" standard of proof (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reasonable_doubt).

In civil contexts however, the legal standard is the much lower "preponderance of evidence" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burden_of_proof_(law)#Preponde...).
