This is the best way I've found to manage a high performing engineering team.

You do need to be extremely attuned to the development process, and like you said, read everyone's code. But it is absolutely worth the effort.
Makes a sweet didgeridoo. Maybe put some silicone caulk on the mouthhole.
You can quickly sand the ends by grappling them with sandpaper in your hand and twisting/squeezing. This reduces the size and modifies the texture, allowing them to assemble and disassemble easier.

I like to be able to disassemble my creations so I dry fit and then bury a self tapping stainless screw through adjoining pieces instead of using glue.
Looking fwd to paying my lawyers a bit more. The bad guys will keep operating under one of many exemptions and workarounds.
Here in Canada my iPhone 12 is reporting that in many places I am on a 5G+ network and on that network I get above 300MBps.

So I am confused by this article that says the new iPhone 15 can finally now achieve those speeds. My phone can do that and it is 3 years old.
Yes certainly. This is what I meant when I said "certainty that it will work". A low bar for quality, but a bar knock offs can't reach usually.
Yes I also misunderstood the usage. They make a therapy session once a month where the patient gets high before the session.

On the other hand, they dont factor in the body mass of the patient and give everyone the same dosage. That doesnt seem high quality to me. And 120-180mg isn't just a little. Thats at the upper end of what you would take when you go to a party, just for reference. Give this to someone with 60kg body mass and they can have a very bad experience.
You're.... Not denying that China does it though.

> If a pawn moves then you can't repeat a state either, can you? So track the last 75 "moves".

You are correct.

So the board state from 75 moves previously plus 75 bytes to store the last 75 moves is sufficient to store a chess game state.
Yeesh. Once again glad to be a 1X who doesn't work for a FAANG and has non-tech hobbies.

I would argue those are exceptional cases. Outside of these prestige brands, you get a lot more leeway.
Both have been shelved; the state of the art in economic modeling is far, far more sophisticated. It goes way beyond the limitations of economics’ loan from XIX century physics (static mechanics).

Economic modeling based on game theory with extensions (say, requiring that certain agent choices are computable and are so under a limited computational budget, or non determinism, or learning) you still get sensible results under much weaker hypothesis.
If you're just going to comment with a strawman, you probably shouldn't have commented at all.
Colors vary depending on application. You can get sch 40 and 80 in white.

Just realized that no one mentioned potato guns. I used sch 80 for those. That quickly leads to using iron pipe with a sparkplug and a propane fitting threaded in though.
I was disappointed Apple didn’t buy them out to contribute to Siri.
It's mostly an academic exercise since paid search will always be small, but I think both ads and SEO are at fault here.

Google profits from ad impressions and ad clicks. That is what they're incentivized to maximize, which means that for Google the ideal mix of search results is a few high quality ads on top of a lot of pages that are loaded with Google advertising. Far from having an adversarial relationship with SEO content farms, Google is symbiotic with them: the more time people spend on the content farms, the more ad impressions Google gets to sell. If the content farm doesn't actually answer the user's query and they return to Google for another round of first party ads, all the better.

They only need to provide relevant enough searches to keep people from trying a different search engine, which as we've seen isn't difficult.
Japan seems to be doing fine with decades of stagflation. Everyone is pretty much taken care of there. Meanwhile, the USA has people dying of diabetes because they cannot afford medicine. I also think if we used trains and other mass transit more, we would be in a better position, like Japan.

I would prefer the stagflation and trains, personally.
We had solar-thermal panels on the roof of our house in Beirut in 1995... they're still going strong - just need to wipe them of dust every now and then. Hands down one of the best home appliance investments - especially in a country where electricity is sporadic.

The reason they haven't picked up in the US is because infrastructure is good - electricity delivery is reliable. It's much cheaper to install an electrical or gas water heater rather than the complicated plumbing needed to add solar-thermal.
Glad I read this. No need to waste my time learning Rust.
"Amazon's Choice" comes to mind, though at least they are a bit more direct in the wording of it in terms of whom it benefits.
In fairness, this was a relatively lackluster update to the iPhone. There is little difference between the iPhones 11 to 15 for normal consumers. It suggests upgrade cycles can lengthen as a result.
As the game goes on the space needed to store the list of moves increases while space needed to store a snapshot of the board decreases. It would be interesting to figure out where on average the strategies meet.
Is there any community or resource that keeps up with all combinations of performance improvements?

Wouldn't Texas and their electric infrastructure and pricing be that defines the reality of price floating while showing people in power are dumb?

Yeah few people have seen the light. But you're right. The only downside is performance. But this is rare and sparse.
It's definitely important, when analyzing the impact of policies on an economy, not to get hung up on things like 'what the numbers on the banknotes look like' rather than important things like 'how well the population's wants and needs are satisfied'. Certainly it's not inherently a problem to continually have to revalue your currency if the net effect of your economy is it makes a lot of happy people, and it's certainly not impossible to imagine that a functional stable productive economy might coexist with a rapidly inflating - or deflating - currency.

But the simulation doesn't do much to validate that concept. It introduced inflation to a group of agents who never think about the future value of their goods or money.

In a runaway inflation situation, some producers of apples aren't going to sell you apples today for 1,000 Simoleons, when they know tomorrow those apples will fetch 1,100 Simoleons... and by Friday they'll be worth 10,000. And some holders of Simoleons will think 'These 10,000 Simoleons could buy be ten apples today, but tomorrow they'll only buy me 9, and by Friday they'll only buy me one... so I should buy 10 apples today, then sell them on Friday'.

Without capital accumulation, time valued money, or investment, this simulation barely scratches the surface of what effects inflation has on an economy.
It seems, then, if you wanted to efficiently store lots of positions, it would be smart to store a large list of openings, a large list of following sequences, and then your positions can be stored as a list of sequence ids.
Call it "limited open source" or something, but the dishonesty leaves a worse taste than admitting it's not open source.

I use Kopia to backup the kids Windows laptops to the home file server over SFTP. The advantages over other options I've found so far:

* Can run in a "I haven't done a backup for a while, so I'll do one now" mode when the laptop is awake.

* Both laptops can be writing to the same repository at the same time, sharing common files, dedup, etc.

Missing:

* Only supports VSS via a couple of scripts I couldn't get working. (Restic is nice with that.)
This misses the point. The issue is not whether or not Google/Facebook should be classified as data brokers or not. The issue is that they are data collectors who invade our privacy.

I want the means to tell companies "Do not collect information on me." And I want that to be enforceable by law.
Exactly, for data sales, the advertiser gets the information up front.

For ad placement, they only get it after you click on the ad, and it's only linked to you personally by your IP address and browser fingerprinting, or more directly if you log in or buy something.

Well, you are not a lawyer. OP specifically wrote the code to help Box with its business. That's cut and dry within the scope of an employment contract, under California law. This doesn't get a safe harbor exception.
At least some of them are “real” in the sense that I recognize the gifs from around the internet / their source videos :)
I don't really agree with that - I've seen plenty of things that have been taken out of context, and portrayed actions in a really false light. It's really not hard to take some off the cuff email or Slack remark and present it as something like official company policy.

More importantly, though, I think anything a company says internally should be 100% irrelevant in an antitrust case. It's like the famous advice parents should give their kids when it comes to relationships: "Just ignore everything a potential partner says, and only focus on what they do."

I mean, it's not like corporations need to have any sort of "mens rea" to be found a monopoly abuser. IMO all that should be evaluated are the actual actions a corporation took to stifle competition. I don't really see why internal communications are relevant at all in these trials.
they don't repair it with you in the store, they send it back to a service center for refurbishment, but they do absolutely refurbish and repair units in house, and this stream ends up as other people's replacement refurbs, or on the apple refurb store, or sold in emerging markets.

I know someone in his mid twenties who has a tremor in his left hand because he had to take this since the age of 10.

And maybe there are cases where it makes sense. But defenitely not in that amount. Idgaf about what anyone tells me about this.
I'd agree with that. I mean (usually?) most people are referring to the person straight from high school to college to MBA to management/executive/consultant without having worked a day in their life, but still.

Does grate on me, though I might be biased, having worked 20 years in IT progressing upwards, and now looking at an MBA to round out my formal business education for further advancement.
Where is that? Are you sure it's PVC and not PEX?
That's shortsighted. Why not go all the way and just stop using computers altogether?
My take: copyright as a general concept was and is vital to the well-being of a creative society. But:

(a) Copyright law is so badly thought-out that I don't feel bad about breaking it; and

(b) What's happening in ML is nothing less than the next stage in human intellectual evolution, after thousands of years of relative stasis. It will prove far more important than copyright in the long run, and if a choice is forced the path is clear.

I don't have much use for the Roko's Basilisk argument, but I'm loath to take any action that might either hold back progress in this field, or that might make it possible for the technology to be captured and owned by powerful commercial interests. It will be humans, and not machines, who curse us in the future for allowing archaic values and corrupt copyright laws to slow progress down... or for allowing Facebook and Microsoft to control it.

TL,DR: party on.
Plenty of average people work at faang, and anyway, these terms are also common at less famous companies.
This, so much this.

And these have been the two main publishers I've had to deal with. And all the course content is structured around their organizational modality because the professors just dump their slide decks in lecture, except naturally much of the nuance is lost so, necessarily, one must have the book. However, I won't pay for it because I'm not going to support rent seeking that is totally degenerate, but I do get it free.

And even overlooking the dreadful formatting, the writing is often bad. This was especially true if the mathematics textbooks I've had to deal with.

> If another company was better at it, they'd put in a higher bid and rake in the profits.

The point is that there is no world in which any other company can outpay Google, regardless of whether or not they are better at search.
Since pirates were routinely hanged in the 18th century, presumably there was a desire to apply the same punishment for copyright infringement.

I was a witness to a decision on whether to migrate an old Java project to Go. A proof of concept (a Go rewrite of a core part of the engine) convincingly showed that the Go version would be somewhat more performant, would have vastly better startup time, and would have a smaller and simpler codebase, since the Java version's caches and latency-hiding complexity would not be needed.

The decision made was to stick with Java.

Why? Because rewriting the long feature tail of the Java version in Go and ensuring bug-for-bug compatibility with the Java version would have taken multiple engineer-years. During the rewrite, from the perspective of the project's users, development would have stalled. It made more business sense to instead use those engineer-years to implement some new features that users were demanding. And after all, while the Java version's performance wasn't amazing, it was acceptable.
s/historical/geological/ please.

On that point the geological evidence also shows the entire planet surface was once a molten hot mess, a recently formed rough ball made by collision and accretion.

None of which has to do with our human actions tipping the recent climate stability that cradled the formation of what currently passes for civilization.
To be clear, the metal in this tire is replacing the pneumatic interior of a traditional tire (air) -- not the rubber tread. It's still a rubber-treaded tire.

Also, no, there's really no reason to worry about pollution from bicycle tires. It's ~0% of rubber pollution.
I misspoke, not a MacBook but a MacMini. It's on a wired 1G connection transferring across local LAN. I'll have to rerun the experiment when I'm at work again and investigate, but iirc when we did this previously we were seeing one maxed core and low scp perf.
That's not what happened here though. For salaried workers everything you do that is related to your job is owned by your job. That's the default even if your contract doesn't state it. He may not have been directed by his boss to make the code for Box, but he did it with the intent of helping Box's business, as a salaried worker. That makes it Box's property.

But even if you are unconvinced of that, work was clearly done on it on company time at Uber, where it was deployed as part of Uber China's business infrastructure. That work is absolutely owned by Uber (with maybe also some claim by Box). Not owned by OP.

It only depends on your employment agreement in the other direction. Work done for hire is by default owned by your employer under federal law. For salaried employees it doesn't matter if it is done during working hours.

The employment agreement can give up this right for things not related to the company's core business, and I usually insist on that in my agreements. But that is not the default behavior.
Interesting. Seems like the enterprise is the opposite direction of what AirTable needs to go in. Good bye Air Table.

I tried to build some apps based on AirTable and found it lacking. Zero idea what use the enterprise is going to find for this. Microsoft has that cornered with Power Platform. Despite it being a rickity piece of shit it smokes AirTable.
It wasn't exactly intentional but the results were great for competition. They were forced to invest in Apple and to stop bullying them, and now Microsoft is completely dominated by them in terms of personal computing.
Three pricing tiers and no listed prices on the "pricing" page. Only the option to talk to sales. So, depending on the outcome of the conversation one could end up paying less for the Enterprise tier than for the Basic one.
