Sure, negligence is a very useful concept.

But what we're talking about here is that there are "bad guys" (tm) who stopped by your party and used a chain saw to cut the supports under the balcony, which would not otherwise have fallen down. But you could have prevented this if you had reinforced the supports with steel posts.

The Kias and Hyundais didn't steal themselves. Let's put the blame where it lies, on the f**ing criminals.
This doesn’t seem to account for finding meaningful opportunities, and in my experience, that has been the more time consuming aspect of the process.
People eventually die and their houses become available. It’s only population growth that creates housing demand, and for the good of the planet, that needs to stop.
This:

> Most people would probably prefer to live in a cheap shack,

Correlates with:

> if it was available and not in a crime-ridden area

In a system where economic advantages agglomerate in a few areas, it would be difficult to create a place that is neither losing to the agglomerating areas, nor is declining itself.

If it is an area where the economy is booming, then it will not be cheap. And if it is not an area that is moving upward, then it is moving downward, and with that comes a host of issues that can cause crime to proliferate.

> Ford Model T cost $260 in 1925 ($4561 in current USD). But today's cars are closer to $40k.

Far more capable and safer vehicles than a ford model T are available for far less than $40k. $20k cars are available, and while not quantifiably true, I think it is easy to say the $20k car of today is easily more than 4x capable and able to provide utility than a $4.5k model T.
> Hopefully it will change.

We are about to have an election in few weeks but I wouldn't count on major shift yet because being populist works and their internally targeted propaganda knows no bounds. I think we need to suffer another 4 years under them unless they screw up real bad.
There is no realistic estimate at this point because we don't know how strong the prosecutor's case is. The prosecutors might even mishandle evidence and botch the case. Insider testimony might not hold up to cross examination. SBF might succeed in arguing that he acted in good faith throughout. There's no predicting how this will play out.

High profile trials (Musk, Trump, OJ Simpson, Madoff) are high variance in outcome.

There's plenty of politics and arbitrariness to Nobel prizes (especially in non-science prizes, eg giving Obama or Malala the peace prize), which probably makes it less of an issue that there may be some politicking within the small group of potential laureates since who among them actually wins is relatively arbitrary.

Eg since only 3 people can win a prize, you can have cases like Francois Englert and Peter Higgs winning the prize for the Higgs Boson despite 4 other scientists having published papers on the same thing around the same time, and the scientists at the LHC who actually confirmed its existence.

Similarly, a work can have won a prize, but if one of the authors passes away before the nomination is made, that person misses out on the title.
new evidence "coming to light" is grounds for appeals or rehearings, I'd have thought evidence of debunked science would have applied too

Well I'm not against that. But they won't be build in a day.

Note that Ursula Von der Leyen (president of the European Commission) recently said the EU would "tone down immigration" or something like that: but she only said it because the far-right political parties are the big winners of this SNAFU.

Also when you build more housing, you have to be careful about the solution you're offering too: in France for example absolutely horrible buildings, communist style (big concrete blocks making the individual feel like not an individual and no nature), have been built on the outskirts of Paris (the "HLM") and these depressing places became no-go zones where even cops don't dare to go anymore.

So it's not sufficient to "build gigantic buildings and put all the poor people in there": you have to find a balance with nature, a mix between social classes, etc. or you'll only reproduce the worst of the worst failure France managed to create.
I think the only special thing, here, is that home purchases are the most common thing bought on leverage that can almost be seen as an investment? Only other leveraged loan that most people will do is a vehicle, and those laughably lose half their value as soon as you close the loan.
I've wanted something like this for ages! Excellent work.
I honestly have never seen a Sony phone which was less than $1000. Perhaps I just looked in the wrong places, but that's what my comment was based on. I agree that a phone costing $400-700 is not an unreasonably high price, but I just wasn't aware of the existence of the models you mentioned.
Wouldn't being "automatons" be a good argument for prisons? If people's behavior is automatic then removing them from the rest of us seems like the only solution. If you believe in redemption, rehabilitation and change then a complicated system like we have seems inevitable.

Sorry I've been binging "Inside the Worlds Toughest Prisons"

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6322264/
If we’re all automatons, there’s no _point_ in prison, but it also doesn’t matter.

It’s just something we (automatically) place certain people in so they don’t (automatically) perform actions that society as a whole (automatically) disagrees with.

But there’s no point arguing it because in your hypothetical free will-less world we don’t have a choice in the matter. But also we might argue it anyway because we don’t have a choice not to :)
Pg 8:

>"Representing this potential well on a graph makes its triangular nature clear:

These wells play a significant role in semi-conductor and transistor design.

A noteworthy example is the high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) which confines electrons to the triangular well produced when different semi-conducting materials are juxtaposed to create a heterojunction. These electrons have very high mobility (a measure of how fast they can move through a semi-conductor under the influence of an electric field), much greater than the MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors) which are conventionally used. HEMTs are used in a lot of high-frequency electronics such as radar equipment, satellite receivers and mobile phones."
Very cool! Congratulations to the authors on the release! I'm the author of a similar (zero-downtime migration) tool for PG called QuantumDB[0]. It was the first (to my knowledge at least) tool to support foreign keys, by creating table copies (keeping those in sync using triggers), and exposing multiple schemas through a custom database driver. I never got to production-ready version unfortunately, but I'm happy this one did. I'm seeing a lot of familiar concepts, and it looks well thought out.

Isn't doing something regardless of potential consequences just another way to define desperate?

Edit: was attempting to be pithy, but apparently would need to spend quite a bit more time to get my point across (and, in the end, doesn't change/add to the discussion), so consider me wrong
Not only can you do fine, but you can save a ton of money on office operations. The economics will win out in the end, I don't doubt it. A lot of executives and managers are simply in denial.
> a talk by researcher Kristian Lum a few years back

I think you mean this research, discussing Oakland: "Setting the record straight on predictive policing and race" - K Lum, W Isaac, 2018 [https://theappeal.org/setting-the-record-straight-on-predict...].

Her full bibliography is at [1] and X/Twitter is @KLdivergence

> drug crimes, but she pointed out that if you look at medical data (where people tend to be fairly honest about their drug usage) pretty much everyone in the metro area under study (SF) used drugs

Right. Second, without knowing their definition of "drug use" or "drug crime", that could mean anything from minor stuff like smoking/buying/possessing marijuana by under-18s, possessing or transporting >1 oz of marijuana, all the way up to possession or sale of large quantities of meth or fentanyl.

Third, and what would be obvious to anyone familiar with the Bay Area 2020-22, if predictive policing used "drug crime" (convictions? or arrests?) as opposed to "drug use", then when the then-SF DA stopped prosecuting possession of personal-use levels of meth, SF police tend to reduce or stop arresting for it. So the arrest, prosecution or conviction data from SF would differ sharply to Oakland or pre-2020 SF or 2023 SF or San Mateo County.

All the above factors combined seems like a huge combination of "data drift", "feature drift", "label drift", "model drift".

Do you really think that Ukraine destroys the pipelines without US-approval? Ukraine basically runs a 100% on US taxpayer money, additionally Germany is one of the most important providers of military aid to Ukraine, why the hell would they risk everything for little to no gain at all? This doesn't make sense. On the other side, POTUS openly said: "If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the border of Ukraine again, there will no longer be a Nord Stream 2.".

The US will have to pay twofolds, financially and morally. As Larry Johnson said: 'What has happened in Ukraine in the last 19 months — over 500,000 dead Ukrainians. What we’re talking about is something that is off the charts. There’s going to be blood on American hands. If there is such a thing as Karma, the US will have a terrible bill to pay."

> I call BS on this one. Upscale people in Pacific Heights smoke crack and shoot heroin? Prove it.

Your question is flawed: "Upscale people" can afford different drug-habits and different drugs... Or even the same drug in a different form-factor that gets a different name.

That confusion is really important to recognize and eradicate, because we've already seen it used for evil and human suffering.

It has lead (and may yet lead) to incredibly biased laws where two people getting caught with the same amount of the same chemical received insanely different punishments, based on whether its packaging/administration was the "low class" form or what the "upscale" preferred.

Your own question echoes this: You demanded proof of "crack" (cocaine) specifically, but not "powdered". In the past, 5g of crack cocaine would cause a mandatory minimum 5-year prison term, while "upscale people" with 499g of powdered cocaine didn't have to worry about that.
Could you elaborate a bit on what this means?
I am a professional coder and my eyes glaze over with assembly. Still, I don't think there's that much assembly. What I saw was to show how the code is implemented, with very little about "doing assembly" outside of a simple example.

I can't judge background - I don't have a sense of who uses Julia, and I've been programming for too long, without exposure to the target audience.

Since you mentioned "academic setting", I'll point out there are also scientists-who-program in industrial settings. However, none of the ones I know about use Julia.

My belief is that most scientists-who-program aren't going to read text books from other fields. They are under pressure to produce NOW, and don't think it's worth the time to acquire an entirely new mindset. Instead, I think this sort of knowledge transfer is by jerks and fits, as someone figures out an optimization, and passes it along, with domain-specific context that makes it easier for others in the field to understand.

Which means, like you, I don't think this notebook will be all that useful, though in my case that's because I think it's too generic.

> what percentage of them understood the entire article

I don't think that's a telling metric. Only some scientific coders are interested in writing fast code (vs. fast-enough code), and only some of those use Julia.
.. and women have totally unrealistic criteria, too, just like employers.

The internet has caused mass insanity.
> With Control Blocks, developers get a visual programming language that looks, feels, and scales like code.

What problem does that solve? I get that there are situations when a programming medium that doesn’t look, feel, and scale like code might be useful, but when the right solution is something that looks, feels, and scales like code, isn't that what is solved by code?

Tig is truly good, and I always install it, it helps me interactively browse a bunch of commits on trees when i want to wrap my head around what’s going on, however, it’s not good enough :(

it’s features a little random, and I basically only use it as a viewer, and even then viewing full commits is too cumbersome.

I really do appreciate it though!
Why is it dubious? The person committed a crime and was detained. It's a far cry from Brave New World.

This is straight out of FTC Chairwoman Lina Khan’s original article Amazon’s Antitrust Paradox https://www.yalelawjournal.org/note/amazons-antitrust-parado.... Amazon is willing to match any competitor’s price in order to build market share while not triggering predatory pricing antitrust review (which did not consider network effects). But the price is low only as long as the competitor is there. When small competitors finally give up (since they cannot offer the same free shipping variety as Amazon) and drop out of the market, Amazon will raise the price in the long run and capture monopolistic profits. Repeat for each new market that they compete in.
No. And I beleive there is a ton of product to be built to account specifically for this in big systems.
I'm a D expat using and managing Rust now. Do I miss D, yes. The D syntax is so beautiful and easy to follow. D code was always plastic, except there's just too many attrs @safe, @system, @oh-god-what-next that don't play well with each other.

However, the runtime - not so much. I didn't complain much. We rewrote all of our core utils written in D (and many in C++) to Rust. No more null. Yes it took a while to onboard everyone to Rust, but hey, there's been zero production downtime since we migrated. Crazy compile times with Rust (compared to D), but we are happy with production runtimes!

Rust is what D should've been, but it's crazy verbose! I can live with that and I do love Rust.
So does Taipei's Wenhu line (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wenhu_line) which was built by a French consortium in the 90s (Matra IIRC). Construction disputes were epic but it seems to operate very smoothly now. The other lines in the system are rail-based.
AFAIK, basically all French subway systems opened after the 1960s use this system.

This is one of the things I strongly associate with Paris: the slight smell of burned rubber when you enter a Métro station of a line with rubber tires.

Pro tip for Paris visitors with children: ride with one of the automated lines 1, 4 or 14, and enter through the very first door. There is a fake (printed) control panel for children below the front window [0].

It really doesn't matter if free will exists (however you want to define it). Harming others for personal gain must be punished, otherwise society breaks down.
And exactly that is one of the things Julia was designed for, you don't need two languages to get the performance. This allows to have even more flexibility, you can write allocation free, copy free, SIMD code from top to bottom, because it is a single language. That is not possible on other languages, because you have the high-low level language/library distinction. And if you do (JAX?), then you have made what Julia already is, a runtime compiled language, but with its own set of problems.
(After looking at the prediction), 15 years feels very reasonable. Like, it's taking away the rest of the prime of his life, which is terrible, but there's still light at the end of the tunnel.
Under what conditions should a business be allowed to change their prices?

I'm OK with a computer making the pricing decision, but like HFT it's the frequency that leads to problems. It's a bit sad that the "free market" has to be regulated like this, but beautiful theories break down when you get to the quantum level.

Cover letter and resume. Which is more reasonable. You should be reading the job ad closely to make sure you match that. Then do some research on the company to make sure you understand what they do - often you can think of some other relevant experience that isn't in the ad.

Don't forget that this isn't a hackernews comment. You should take an hour (day is better!) break and then reread and revise everything. Don't send the rough draft or even the second draft in - follow the whole writing process they told you in school. Some people will spot a spelling error at the bottom of the page in one second and reject you, so make sure everything is perfect.
"Winning" as the goal is the only way lawyers can be truly objective. Otherwise the justice system turns into a popularity contest. The problem is that any single person/lawyer might ~think~ they know who is guilty or innocent, but they may very well be wrong.

If a defense lawyer knows that his client is guilty, and successfully defends him anyways, that means there was not sufficient evidence to convict. Don't blame the defense lawyer for doing his job rigorously. Blame the prosecution for failing at theirs.

Walmart and Target are actually much worse. Target is perhaps the worst of all, believe it or not. If a scammer creates a listing for a particular UPC, they own it within the Target system basically forever. Even if you approach Target as the legitimate brand and try to take control of the listing they refuse and then try to essentially extort you. They tell you that you can essentially “stop the bleeding” by signing up with a certain third party vendor that charges thousands a month so you can list on Target. And even if you do, that product listing still remains controlled by someone else. They wanted it to be a kind of “gold rush” where brands would run to sign up for fear of losing the ability to sell their products to third parties.
Isn't he banned from operating a nonprofit in New York now, and didn't Trump University get a civil judgement (I'm aware you might not call that a fraud conviction) that disbanded it? That's just from memory - if not technically a criminal, he's quite certifiably crooked, but people will still throw money at him, and I'll never understand people.

The other figure that comes to mind is Adam Nuemann (and I'm not alleging anything criminal against him), but apparently he just has a personality that draws VCs with dumptrucks full of money like moths to a flame.

Clearly people just have tons of money they don't need these days.

Because Julia claims to get usability and performance in one language, rather than the two Python needs (Python for the user-facing API, C/C++/Fortran/etc. for performance).

This should also help with optimization, and a larger amount of code can be optimized together, while (C)Python can only optimize up to the Python/C boundary.
And why would any of those be harmful? Care to elaborate?
