No, I want to do resume-driven development.

My professional goal has always been to find the parts of work I like the most, find a way to excel at that work, put it on my resume, pivot that resume into a new job that focuses more on what I enjoy.
If you want a research paper, can you do a book report on every single one of the references?

To be frank, it’s a huge entitled ask. If it's one or two specific points being unclear and you want reference, fine. Not cool for asking references for the whole thing. What have you done to educate yourself in these areas besides asking strangers in the internet to do the work for you?

I have a PhD in computer engineering, specializing in operations research. I can translate all kinds of real-world problems into mathematical models that can be solved via integer programming, constraint programming, or other methods. I'm the father of four young children, so I'm looking for flexible/remote part-time work. I'm also open to contract work (see my comment in the "Freelancer? Seeking freelancer?" thread for more details).
> It seems like the world is very maligned against your desires

Oh it's not maligned against my desires!

In my previous post I was referencing existing laws, and the existing ability of individuals in society to do basically whatever they want with things that they own.

In the USA, consumers have large amounts of freedom, at least individually.

The specific topic of model weights makes this even more clear. I have my own GPU, and nobody knows what I use model weights for, nor are they likely to stop me, (excluding some very rare but extreme edge cases obviously!).

Isn't the USA great, and isn't it amazing that "makers" have basically no effective power to stop others from using their work in ways that the maker doesn't like?

That's freedom for you.
Yes, it’s also maddening for most Googlers who are passionate about the work they want to do that would affect just tens of millions (or less).

But at least it leaves room for other companies in some situations. What’s really sad is when there’s something that could only be done by Apple or Google, but it’s too small for either of them to actually do it.
If you create a new account, it will work like classic EC2. They will set up the VPC for you behind the scenes. Until you "break the glass" and try to configure a VPC, it will work just like old classic did.
It was already known that training on code improves performance on all reasoning tasks[1], so this is not really surprising.

Agreed. This writeup is beautiful. And I learned a bunch about SPE in the meantime.
>Smoking reduces quality years of life

actually it make worse your worst year, but has no effect on your best years

> and puts a burden on a nation's health system.

listen, I know smocking is bad as anyone else, but if we wanna talk about "burden on a nation's health system" let's talk about cars (fumes are just the tip of the iceberg, we have more than 20 thousand deaths/year caused by car accidents and many more injured and/or left invalid) or having children.

You know what also puts a burden on on a nation's health system?

an aging population!

in my Country more than 25% of the population is over 65, so they not only are retired and do not contribute anymore to the expenditures through their work, they also need a lot of very expensive and prolonged care.

They most probably smoked in their younger years, but survived nonetheless and now they need to be taken care of.

Truth is the nation health system wastes too much money on things that do not help people, we've seen it during the pandemic, the personnel was crushed by the unsustainable shifts and the output was barely sufficient.

said by someone who was born and lives in a Country with a public healthcare system, who happily pays for it through a lot of taxes (half of my salary) and a big chunk of the family employed by the aforementioned public national health care system.

Or, for example, what has been the cost (both economical and social) of the recent opioid epidemic in the US of A caused by the health care system itself?

> But more importantly, it's morally wrong to suggest we shorten and make our lives worse for some short term stimulant spike.

like, for example, firing up combustion engines to drive kids to school? kids that, bear in mind, have perfectly functioning legs and can walk!
> But the probability of that happening on a large scale is the same probability that seven billion people collectively hallucinated elementary theory and it's in fact not true that there are infinitely many prime numbers.

That's the fundamental problem. We're building the machines to verify an internally consistent idea that we're all pretty pleased with. For example, type systems don't tell you that your data is true or correct, they just provide a framework of assumptions to work from that turn out to be really useful. Each type system will provide a different view on your data/process/etc.
Both. I don't recall if this is necessary to cause it to start happening, but as soon as you pinch any amount with two fingers for zooming in/out (or to scroll down to see the rest of the cut off UI), the behavior sticks around for a while.

I'm not entirely convinced that this is anything on your end, as I have run into similar issues with my sites, and all the "answers" online don't really fix it. I believe the only real solution is some combination of setting viewport, disabling certain scrolling/finger gestures*, and ensuring that the content on screen doesn't go off the page. I'm no expert though.

*: I don't recall this being absolutely necessary, and it is generally not recommended for accessibility reasons. I believe that I mostly fixed it with just setting the proper viewport meta tag and ensuring content doesn't go off the screen.
You are right, it was a typo. It should have been 10.0.0.0/8. Updated that in the blog, also resolved a confusion about the memory in a P3dn.24xlarge.

I've a 6-month internship experience at BYJU's in the frontend, full-stack team working in technologies like ReactJS (redux, saga, etc), Typescript, HTML, NodeJS where I worked directly on the monthly sprint features/items that got delivered into production where I handled some of the projects myself alone with 100% of contribution.

Apart from this, I have worked as Full Stack Developer in FiveM (GTA 5 Multiplayer) server, where I developed some resources including the frontend and backend, mission scripts, algorithm optimizations for large concurrent player base (probably highest in that community), etc.

I have some good projects (mentioned in resume) that are live into the production, where people are actually using it, rather be it in a game server or production.

I'm a quick learner and can adapt to any new technologies in short duration of time and getting into the depth by time.

Can't trust Apple/Google, can't trust OSM, can't trust paper maps...

What's the right answer here?
The truth is out there
Seemingly it is implementation:

>Why did such errors occur?

>When the algorithm finds an ideal candidate for a position, it does not reset the list of remaining candidates before commencing the search to fill the next vacancy. Thus, those candidates who missed out on the first role that matched their preferences are definitively discarded from the pool of available teachers, with no possibility of employment. The algorithm classes those discarded teachers as “drop-outs”, ignoring the possibility of matching them with new vacancies.

And (possibly) also incorrect data:

>Often teachers input the wrong data on the system because of an interface that is not very transparent, complex and difficult to access. The scores can therefore already be distorted upstream, without taking into account human errors by the school offices.” Aspiring teachers often find themselves alone in facing complex procedures and error is often inevitable and sometimes irreparable.

I worried about all of these things before installing 8 outdoor security cameras using PoE. The system is in a rural area with lots of critters and 100+ degree summers. I used direct burial & outdoor cabling but left it above ground and in some cases strung from pole to pole. It's been 3 years and the only issue was 2 cameras shorted at the "waterproof" Ethernet jack connector on the camera.

This was not mission critical so I just "went for it" and it worked out. It was a great payoff since it only took 2 days to mount all the cameras and lay the cables. It would have taken much longer to dig trenches and put the cables in buried pipes. I treated it like a prototype and figured I would improve later based on actual problems that came up.

I did make sure all of the boxes with wire connections, power supplies, and PoE switches were in waterproof boxes and I used silicone sealer where cables entered the boxes. I opened up one box yesterday and not even a cobweb!

>But that's not the paradigm unfolding here.

Yes, that is the paradigm unfolding here. That is indeed one of the many critical attractions of self driving vehicles.

>The reckless drivers will shun self driving because they want to show off and have fun.

First, this is your unsourced head canon. People with drinking problems, cognitive impairment (both temporary and permanent), etc seem likely to be a far bigger percentage.

But it doesn't matter, because they won't get the choice, which again is one of the core aspects of self driving vehicles. Right now, human driving in America is a quasi-right because it's currently intrinsically tied to "personal arbitrary time/space mechanized transportation". I say "quasi-right" because while legally it's not formally a codified right or in the Constitution or something, as a practical matter if most of the population wasn't able to drive the country would fall apart. And that is recognized by government, both executive/legislative and judicial. Losing driving rights would be a major burden for tens of millions people and would disrupt their ability to get or retain jobs, in turn causing other societal expense. So traditionally government is quite hesitant to wield that stick and almost never preemptively.

Self-driving though would decouple human driving from someone having their own car and ability to have it take them where they want, when they want like right now. That in turn would completely change to political dynamics. Driving would truly become a privilege, and getting a license could become much more like class C licenses or professional emergency responder licenses or the like are. Much, much more serious training and testing, continuing ed requirements as with other professions, and much easier to lose. Because unlike right now, losing one's drivers license won't mean losing the ability to use a car. Anyone who acts recklessly at all, even if there is no damage of any kind, can just preemptively have their license rescinded until at a minimum remediation is completed. Because driving will just be a hobby.
Understandable, it's unfortunate
> “Smoking typically comes before the mental illness. In fact, a long time before. On average, people from the data set began smoking at the age of 17, while they were typically not admitted to hospital with a mental disorder until after the age of 30,” he adds.

So smoking onset is measured by behavior initiation but mental illness onset is measured by first hospitalization?

This is just one of the pieces of motivated reasoning evident here.
SEEKING WORK - Netherlands - Remote-only

I'm a full-stack engineer looking for contract work.

I'm most experienced in PHP/Laravel and Javascript/Typescript/React, but am pretty tech-fluid.

Previously, I worked at Etsy (three years) and Trello (five years, both pre- and post-Atlassian acquisition).

Recent client projects include a Next.js site backed by a WordPress/GraphQL API and an MVP for a video recording and annotation app build with Laravel.

Resume: https://www.toptal.com/resume/gerard-o-neill

The "NAVAIR - FOIA" videos are blocked for German IPs:(
There's a song in the operetta "Candide" called "Auto Da Fe (What a Day)" that expresses the joy of the crowds in watching the Auto Da Fes (Acts of faith) of the Spanish Inquisition wherein people were forced to perform public acts of penance for their religious sins or heresies, up to burning at the stake. It's a funny song in its irony, and I'm sure Votaire would have appreciated the treatment that Bernstein gave it.

That is to say that this sort of thing is not particularly unheard of. The cultural software of some modern countries may be a bit more progressed than others, but the human hardware of at least a significant portion of the world seems inclined to delight in punishment of those perceived as sinful.

If there's anything I've learnt in the past year about LLMs, it's this:

there's so much hype, ungrounded research "findings", and next-big-thing libraries (remember langchain?)

LLMs, at least the ones companies use, are APIs all the way down. Stay away from anything or anyone who claims they've discovered something no one else knew about LLMs.
'Extermist' videos were watched most often from external links and those led to channel subscriptions. Seems like the right balance to me.
No thank you, this isn't a front end replacement, it's just reading the API and displaying stuff in half ass kind of way.

So GoDaddy is the registrar responsible for the ccTLD, but who is responsible for the 50+ second-level domains? Are those all under GoDaddy's control too?

I mean, I assume that most people registering a .US domain are not registering it at the top level. Do individual states have no control over how their second-level domains are administered and delegated? Furthermore, there are so many sub-sub-domains under all that. Any one of those could be vulnerable to someone entering unauthorized DNS information and getting a host within the domain without any need to register anything at all.
It's a common recommendation, right? I think this might be close to being actual evidence for it.

Life is so strange. Robin Boyd criticized Australian architecture for being an ugly confused mix of ideas and focusing on parts rather than the whole, featurism. There was an idea that every home owner should choose their own design and style. Robin disapproved, saying essentially, the results are ugly.

He did that in the 1960s.

Since the addition of pintrest, the computing revolution and more, it's somehow gotten worse. Most commercial properties going up have abandoned the laid back 1950s stying for 'generic house' that had visual depth, two-car garage, a garden, textured wall materials and a verandah (porch) of some kind.

The new properties look like someone took the "Default Cube" you get in Blender and copy pasted it a few times. Flat concrete walls that look like a ww2 pill box.

Ctrl C, Ctrl V, it would appear, has absolutely murdered beautiful houses. I know there's other reasons... but the death of beautiful houses in a country where home ownership (well, land ownership) has been the primary dream since settlement.. it hits a little too close to home.
Parts of this thread make me feel like I'm on crazy pills. We are currently doing SSR everywhere and it absolutely works in all the weird bleeding edge use cases that are traditionally parroted as reasons for outsourcing your ownership over technology. This isn't some historical, nostalgic experience for us. It is life today.

The propaganda being fed into this industry is impossible to navigate in 2023. The best I can do is to find other engineers who still see things my way and team up with them. I am so grateful to have a few of these on my team right now.

To be clear - Client-side rendering has its place. A perfect example of this is WebGL. But, this is extremely niche when you consider the total space of all business. PHP-style development is still untouchable for 99% of line-of-business web applications. String interpolation on the server was always the answer. Will continue to be the answer until some dystopian organization(s) decide to make it impossible to do things this way.
I like the idea of not putting them in any specific order. Really helps encourage scrolling through when many of the "tricks" don't have super appealing names.

> While mathematics itself may be a human invention, it clearly describes a fundamental truth as evidenced by its continued reliance in producing effective models that describe the measurable world, which must be taken as a reflection of objective reality.

It often describes the fundamental truth, because much of its origins was for that purpose, not because all mathematics is fundamentally true.

There's plenty of mathematics that is not modeled by the measurable world - almost by design. Just pick a different set of axioms and you'll get mathematical truths that may conflict with reality.

According to many mathematicians, uncountable infinities don't exist, and they focus on doing math without relying on them. There goes the real number line. From a scientist's perspective, either they exist or they don't. Both cannot be true. From a mathematician's perspective, both are truths.

Similarly, either the Axiom of Choice is true or it isn't. Yet the bulk of mathematics is fine with or without it.

I agree than many of the most important scientific advances in the Muslim world were due to Persians, like the classification of the chemical substances made by Avicenna, who has written in Arabic, as you say.

However, the works of Avicenna and others like him have reached Europe through Arabs, frequently through Spain.

If you know of another path to Europe for the Persian Arabic works, I am curious to hear which is it.
