I'd not come across this term before. Odd (for me) to see a special term used to describe something that I see in almost any story reported across a range of publications on any one day.

So I downloaded the app out of curiosity, and while the app advocates itself as anonymous or privacy friendly, first thing it asks you in the sign up process is your phone number, and then asks you to add your contacts, and later the whole mechanism of communication is basically based on phone numbers.. phone numbers aren’t secure, aren’t private, some countries even require biometric to register the numbers (aka SIM cards IMEI) and maintain a db of it [1], so why not just use texts at this point?! Even iMessage can use apple ID instead numbers now.

Not really, because I wasn't arguing against the poster's opinion (as I don't know much about, or have strong opinions on affirmative action in New Zealand), but only the absurd comparison being used to support their argument. It's the sort of wild comparison that gets thrown around on hotheaded internet message boards but that would get you laughed (or heckled) out of the room in any serious discussion of the issue.

I fell from one of those long balancing logs straight onto my back.
As a founder with an unicorn exit (with 2 more co-founders!), I'm always open to talk.

But there is a big catch: Yes there is a lot of luck involved. And just following a path of someone else not gonna work. As example: I never studied, instead worked hard since I was 15. But on the other side I also grew up in a country with very good social support and education. I had mostly great teachers in school and also lucky to find during my career a bunch of good people I can always rely on.

Yes of course there are things, that are not based on luck, but still only worked because of how my life went and cannot be used as general advices. I think if you would try to follow my (or any other successful founders) path, it's very likely not gonna work. Survivorship Bias is a big thing here.

But again open to talk anyhow.
Mostly unfounded.

All these articles telling you how totally safe it is to ingest artificial chemical xyz remind me of how companies were telling you it was fine, even healthy, to smoke cigarettes. The degree of arrogance with which these scientists state their truths is confounding.

Meanwhile chronic illnesses and cancer rates are skyrocketing.

Pytorch fits in the same bucket as datacenter hardware. By giving the designs away they drove the price down, made it easier and cheaper to hire people familiar with the technology and reduced the risk of sitting on an outdated stack being overtaken by someone else (or worse, someone else capturing open source momentum).

What happened with llama and stable diffusion is (another) cautionary tale for anyone gambling on proprietary technology advantages.

Your competitors can hurt you both directly and indirectly if you leave the open source route open and Sam Altman being on world diplomacy tours selling regulators on the dream they can control AI China style by regulating a few willing large companies makes a lot more sense when you compare the open source trajectory against proprietary models (and because Meta doesn’t charge, they are a slippery fish to action).

Meta easily shaved billions of dollars from the proprietary market over time at very little cost to themselves because LLama was an existing long term investment whose primary costs were already incurred at release time and it had no serious market viability as a proprietary model without vastly more investment and cost. It’s the open source contributions that made it competitive.
I knew of a few people who got OS/2 as a pack-in with a new PC clone from a big store chain in that time (it was Escom I believe). Apparently, IBM also tried bundling as a way to increase market share.

Would US fare better than russia tonight? <50 drones resulting in probably around $300-500mil in hardware damages alone (6x Il-76, potentially refinery and electronics factory). And those are primitive loud improvised drones flying slow and quite high.

Even the best AA system will run out of ammo under heavier assault. Patriot in Kyiv got overwhelmed with less than 20 cruise missiles it could easily track, now make that hundreds of targets gliding few meters above the surface to the target.
The sensible non-woo-woo reason is the speeds of the objects and the paths they're following; they don't match things in orbit around the sun, so aren't from the solar system. The Oort cloud reaches out more than half the distance to Alpha Centauri [1], so yes, it's distant for being in orbit around the sun, and there may be all kinds of strange materials out there and elsewhere in the solar system, but those things are not moving like ʻOumuamua. Any talk of aliens is still woo-woo as far as I'm concerned.

Just out of curiosity, are there any non-startup non-tiny companies whose core business is self built software (or a service that runs on said software) that _actually_ and _in practice_ follow the agile manifesto?
Prometheus text exposition format is de-facto standard used in monitoring. It would be great building an official observability standard on top of it. This format is much easier to debug and understand than OpenTelemetry for metrics. It is also more efficient, e.g. it requires less network bandwidth and less CPU for transfer than Otel for metrics.

Might be a matter of perception, but I believe Bun is advertising itself as a drop-in replacement whereas Deno is primarily focused on being a better runtime (native TypeScript, different security model wrt modules, comes with test runner, linter etc).

So while they're definitely competitors to an extent, the difference in approach should be taken into consideration when you're deciding which one to pick.

Give them 1% off if they pay immediately instead of 30 days or whatever is typical.

Get some upfront payment (20-30%) to get started.

Breaking the project into deliverables bill accordingly. No payment, no further work.

>I'll pass on the industrial byproducts being used in my food, thanks.

Is this even possible? Can you define industrial byproduct?

Like even if you go to a typical Western grocery store and buy a single apple and then eat it. It was covered in a thin layer of wax to prolong its shelf life. Likewise if you buy a potato it might have trace amounts of industrial produced material in it from industrial farming.
Pax: A Jax-based machine learning framework for training large scale models
Nvidia released a toolkit to assist chip design a few months ago:

Google has been working on AI's to optimize code:

https://blog.research.google/2022/07/mlgo-machine-learning-f...

> But it still can't really design things.

What do you really mean by "really" in that sentence?

In any case, the claim you responeded to was not that the chips would be designed from the ground up by AI, only that AI will enable us to run code on top of chips that are even more complex than current chips.

I didn't publish my writeup(s) yet because it would put me at a strategical disadvantage for the time being. I'm not ready, and still need some time for preparing my tech stack. If you're curious, it's gonna be released on the Tholian Network website.

There have been a couple of investigations that I helped with in the German media though, in case you're interested. They mostly focus on bigger topics though, like the fact that AIMS was used for vote manipulations, or about the troll factories in middle/west Africa etc.

They didn't talk about the hacker groups in detail because I think there's some missing expertise in that sector (also in regards of being able to defend themselves), but everything around those groups on telegram can be dug up pretty quickly. It's not like they care about their secrecy.

What tier-1 provider is irresponsible enough to use this?
I wouldn’t use a bank with this attitude. With a “tech company” label comes a lot of unjustified hubris based on an assumption that one is good at everything just because they write code.

My employer called themselves an education research company that happened to use software to commercialise their findings. It sat a lot better with me and made for better culture in my eyes.
Do you have a link to the video? In your description it sounds extremely irresponsible - he had his hands off the wheel because he was filming a selfie video? Sounds like he wasn't driving with due care and attention.
Nope, not using, I'm not even using command history or bash completion. The only way to actually learn what you are doing is by doing it yourself - but that's just me, I don't judge others for doing differently.
Not many hoops, why?

We could in theory bank other banks, but that's not our focus. Our current customers are mostly regulated non-bank financial institutions, E-Money and Client money. As an American analogy, think Square Cash, Venmo, Paypal.

Longer term our aspiration is to also be the business bank for technology companies e.g. Apple or AirBnb or Uber. Currently Goldman is a big player in that space.
You spend millions on offices and then they get empty. You get tax credit for those. Do you sell the office for a loss or tell employees to come back?
Suppose you are CEO. Do you want to see 500 people working for you, with the power and control feeling that comes with it or stay home and talk to a screen?
Yes, and if it gets upvoted to the front page you can be relatively sure that that’s actually the case.

It's interesting that the article spends a fair amount of space calling carbon capture an outright scam. If "climate change" is just a nice way to talk about running out of oil, that would be a way to tell. China is installing more new coal plants this year than the entire installed coal plant base in the United States. That would be another indicator that this is all just about running out of oil. That Germany is tearing down wind farms to build new coal plants, would be another. That the permian basin, the source of almost all new oil supply growth for the last decade, is starting to decline in production would be another.

The contribution of renewables to electricity generation is pretty negligible and relies on massive industrial production in China. IMHO, anything but building coal and nuke plants like crazy with what's coming, like China is doing, is not really going to help the rapidly approaching reality of a serious world energy crisis.
Psychology and psychiatry are worlds apart and I think you're confusing one with the other.

Psychiatry fits within what you described: individualized treatment, medication, etc. It's a branch of medicine after all, and it fits within the whole context of medical care as it is conceived currently (that is, brushing aside social context, community, etc)

Psychology is all about context, that's kinda its motto. A good therapist always considers the family, socioeconomic backgrounds, all the things you say it ignores.
It's a well known hiking area on the island. It's been part of the Saratoga Woods public park since it was bought by the land conservancy in ~2001. It was noted as abandoned at the time. The main part of the park is second growth, but the area around the airstrip looks to be mainly smaller trees, so possibly logged later, post early Seattle logging boom times.
When they were actively blocked from governance for a long time and effectively blocked for most the rest, is it really apartheid to have Māori represent their views?

It’s also what was guaranteed in our founding document - depending on how you read it. That dubious piece of legal work managed to botch the key term ‘governance’ such that interpretation is required and it may, or may not guarantee Māori governance of the country.

Comparing NZ to apartheid South Africa is darkly funny. The oppression I face is underwhelming.

It feels like hybrid is always the worst of both worlds.

It's very likely that most people are actually in office and there is a unspoken expectation that you are in the office at least a couple of days. Typically, the work culture is centered around direct conversations in the office. If that is the case, you are more likely to succeed if you are in the office. Few companies or teams are looking for better tooling to support remote or hybrid work.

Companies that have a great remote culture are all about async communication. You also don't necessarily need dailies to be a live event but each team should figure out what works best for them in that regard.
The above will only be successful if it supports SQL.

The best place to end up is something like PySpark/Snowpark as a better API for SQL is really useful when doing complicated things.

You still need to have a standard SQL layer though, as otherwise you'll cripple adoption.
I regret doing it.
> but also open sourcing it may mean there are more developers who can build applications which can do similar things.

and they don't need to spend money on in-house developers and their training. If any company makes a useful and groundbreaking development, they can just buy them - it saves them a lot of money in the long run.
I remember Microsoft Research had a prototype OS written entirely in .NET some time in mid 2000s; IIRC they used pre-emptive multitasking, but didn't enforce memory protection. Instead, the compiler was a system service: only executables produced (and signed?) by the system compiler were allowed to run, and the compiler promised to enforce memory protection at build time. This made syscalls/IPC extremely cheap!

I think a slightly more fancy compiler could do something similar to "enforce" coop-multitasking: insert yield calls into the code where it deems necessary. While the halting problem is proven to be unsolvable for the general case, there still exists a class of programs where static analysis can prove that the program terminates (or yields). Only programs that can't be proven to yield/halt need to be treated in such fashion.

You can also just set up a watchdog timer to automatically interrupt a misbehaving program.
Meta:

Either those little numbers are references to footnotes, and so are outside of the text flow, either they are part of it. Here the text explicitely use them ("I’ll focus in particular on ⁴") but still put them in superscript with role=doc-noteref, meaning screen readers will skip them.

Shame. I use none of those services.
> There is a silenced minority of people who feel that in office participation is better for learning, collaboration, brainstorming, even in technical fields.

There definitely are situations when going to the office can be beneficial (brainstorming day, team-bonding activities, etc). It's important for people to have a choice to go to an office when needed.

RTO is about forcing people to go to the office, even when they deem it unnecessary and unproductive for their work.
Maybe this is obvious but in the original data, did they exclude rugby players, wrestlers, people with other kind of ear injuries?

Mori Tower’s “super double-deck elevators” are equipped with a pantograph joint on the part of the elevator that connects two passenger cars that can expand and contract by up to two meters, making it possible for the elevator to serve floors with varying heights.

To people like me, it doesn't matter how unfounded it is. I'm sure there are people in this world who can benefit from sugar replacements, but in my mind there is absolutely no reason at all to start feeding myself artificial sweeteners when there is enough sweeteners in nature.

On a related note, I'm kinda happy to note that steviol is much in use here in southern europe, where I'm currently residing. They don't even make a big deal out of it, regular sodas, vitamin powders, you read the ingredients and there it is.

Steviol is a sweetener based on a natural plant Stevia. I've so far seen it in both Hungary and Croatia.

I come from Sweden and it used to be that Stevia products were in a bin on their own, marketed specifically as stevia products. But down here they don't even mention it on the marketing side of the label. It's buried in the ingredients.

Yup. I use GPT for unit test generation and Wizard Coder is nowhere near even GPT-3.5 let alone GPT-4. HumanEval performance is not representative of general model capability.

To be fair, the tagline of the main page gives you a good explanation of what Deno is ("Next-generation JavaScript Runtime")(I did not know what Deno was either).

I wonder how research works inside Product companies.

As an engineer working in a Product company, my focus switches between priorities set by PM and quarterly re-adjustments of the goals/strategies.

Can't imagine same thing can be done in research:

* Hey, when are we releasing model for tracking any points?
* Can you estimate how long it takes to fix the issue you found in tracking accuracy?
> Parity files are imo an wildly underrated tech for long-term storage and something that I currently use for all long-term storage.

As a not to others: if following this method for archive purposes, be careful how you are distributing these parity files and those that they relate to. If all your files are on the same physical disk/tape the one physical disk/tape being unreadable kills the whole lot so you are only protecting yourself against errors in individual blocks. To protect against more complete media failures (i.e. a CD/DVD being unreadable) you need to split the data over several disks/tapes. This matches how the system was used on usenet, where each post (of potentially many tens or hundreds making up a large binary post) was essentially a separate bit of storage media. At this point it may just be easier to have multiple copies, though note that even with multiple copies the parity information can be useful as you can detect bit and block level corruption and in many cases correct it (whereas with two copies you can detect corruption, as the copies no longer match, but have no reliable way of knowing which copy, if any, is correct).
> I don't exactly understand what you mean by feminism (GC/radfem or the average suffrage feminism).

I think that the dissonance in the feminism movement versus their counterparts is that there's a different level of expectations in the topics that they as a movement want to discuss.

When women (or LGBTQA+) are talking about these issues, they're looking for allies, they're looking for compassion and comfort on their journey; and are not interested in the rational solution in the first place.

The obvious topics that nobody talks about in similar topics like child abuse is ridiculous from their perspective. They see the world as "all men are talking about protecting children, but none of them talk about that they need to protect children from men" and that's something that hits the ego on the other side. Men usually have problems putting their egos aside from the topic, and that's what causes the "defending arguments" game; because they project those accusations on themselves directly.

Hence, incels exist, and why kiwifarms, /pol/ and others have huge overlaps in their communities because of it. They simply cannot differ between personal accusations, and comfort themselves with generalizations out of anger and hate.

And everything that was said in a state of anger wasn't true anyways, because it was either an excessive statement to make a point or some over-stylized hearsay. But that's the blame game that worked in school until the more rational side gave up, and hence why nobody is able to put their egos aside later in life to actually try to find a compromise.
My recollection from the paper is that he presented what’s typically discussed as waterfall at the start of the paper, and from there developed the iterative process.

Neither process was explicitly called “waterwall” - and the former is what I was taught at software engineering school.
