Making it harder to do crimes shouldn't be discouraged because some criminals will find new ways to do crimes.

You're defending the ability to commit crimes because the law isn't perfect. The law _cannot_ be perfect, so no law will ever satisfy your requirement.

Following this line of reasoning to it's conclusion: because all laws are imperfect, and criminals can always find ways around them, your position is that no laws should be enacted.

After all, you can't have crime if nothing is criminalized, right?
You can actually (finally!) turn this of in your preferences and see exact dates.
I also wonder how much cheaper Premium would be without music. I guess it's kind of hard to separate, since popular songs are on both and Premium allows background watching.

The YT music app feels like a poorly reskinned YT app. Impossible to get basic album info, song titles are often wrong (live versions not marked, covers appearing to be original, etc.). So many "fan" releases which are often just lower fidelity copies. And search is, ironically, abysmal.
Wikipedia lists 282 bridge failures between 2000 and present, 4 of which occurred in the UK, 7 in Italy, and 35 in the US.

What was that famous math dissertation that simply gave a half-page counter-example for a certain well-established conjecture?

I think it's just the after-effects of the layoffs working their way through the system. If you want to read something that makes you feel better, I'll give you a link... But more than that, I'll explain the meaning behind it that you might not pick up on unless you've worked around the press/PR industry.

The link: https://www.businessinsider.com/airbnb-boss-laid-off-staff-p...

The deeper story: Business Insider does not write these stories themselves. They just take articles basically "pre-written" by corporate PR/press flaks and reprint them... Maybe, maybe, _maybe_ they might reach out for a "pushback/response" quote and add "x,y,z refused to comment for this story" if they don't get a response within a couple hours. Or they might spend 5 minutes fact-checking something - but probably not: if it's a source they "trust" who gives them articles that make their life easier by feeding them stories people click on, why bite the hand that feeds?

So what? Well, this story was written by _AirBnB_, most likely at the behest of Chesky either directly or indirectly. And the narrative essentially reduces to "Brian Chesky cares about the people he laid off". Why would he pay people to create that narrative? I won't lead you all the way there, but suffice to say it's good sign.
I updated the article with Brad's info :)
I attended a short series of lectures by Kalman years ago. As I recall it, he very strongly emphasised the virtue of working directly with observed data, avoiding the biases resulting from positing a model and trying to adapt it to the data. He was quite insistent on this point, citing Newton’s _Principia_ as a good example of this principle at work: Newton, he said, did not cast around for models that might explain Kepler’s laws. Instead, he _derived_ the inverse square law of gravitation from Kepler’s laws, largely using geometric arguments. He was an excellent speaker, and highly opinionated. And of course he did explain the idea behind the Kalman filter. However, since I never needed them myself in my work, I have long since forgotten the details.
Can you unpack the feeling of "not fitting in" a bit (re those matters)? I'm curious in which circumstances it arises and what are the core components it rests on.
Not Switch but extend. I use youtube music for a variety of songs that would never be on Apple Music (covers, instrumentals, mash ups, tiktok remixes, etc.)
This is a totally aside but as someone attempting to learn Spanish as an adult I was curious about the translation from "castellano" to "spanish" (rather than using "espanol"). I had assumed that it referred to the Catalan language but based on some searches it sounds like maybe it _can_ refer to a particular dialect of Spanish but can also just refer to the Spanish language in general. Do i have that right? Language is fascinating!
Search for Vaudeville and Music Hall. They were the Victorian precursors of pop, with their own superstars, top-selling writers, and classic songs - now mostly forgotten.

There's quite a bit of Music Hall in McCartney's songs. (Lennon called it "That granny crap.")

One of the reasons copyright exists in the form it does is because many Victorian houses had pianos. Without recording technology there was a huge, incredibly profitable market for sheet music of light classics and music hall hits that could be played at home.

There's also a series of books by Simon Napier-Bell, who used to be a famous (notorious) pop manager in the 70s to 90s. Three of them are hilarious and frequently disturbing autobiographies and comments on the business.

The fourth is Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Ay, an almost academic account of the music business from the early 18th century.

There are some real surprises, and also a lot that's surprisingly familiar.
Because those 14 parts would be highly interconnected with each other. You couldn’t actually treat them as 14 separate parts. They aren’t compartmentalized like different countries’ networks are.

This is a bit similar to how a 14-core processor doesn’t give you 14 times the performance of a single core if the cores have to communicate and coordinate with each other.
Hiring pipeline have been extended to absurd lengths and now are extremely successful at achieving their true purpose: avoiding hiring anyone. There's no good reason for the current state other than pathological laziness and extreme fear of ever having a "bad" hire where bad means anyone who can't be productive their first day in the office with whatever weird frankenstack the company has implemented.

There's no shortage of intelligent people who could fulfill your company's needs but there is an extreme shortage of unicorns who will work for a junior/mid salary and be able to produce senior level work instantly. Everyone struggling to hire will deny all of this but they also will recognize it completely because it is the simple truth.

Blow up your pipeline, tell your HR department to buzz off with their navel gazing requirements that aren't job related, and most of all, tell your hiring managers to get over their fears and their laziness. The Earth won't spiral into the Sun if you have to train someone on your department's specific needs and should you hire someone who just never adapts, the universe won't snuff out of existence because they have to be let go and you have to look again. Companies have been hiring tech resources for longer than most of us have been alive (yes, even if you're from the mainframe era) and it's only recently that this madness has taken hold to a level that everyone is self paralyzing. Get over yourself, you and your company just aren't as important as your hiring process implies. Billions won't die from a famine if you hire someone who only understand half your stack and some of what they do understand is a dated version. They'll learn and if you treat them well (you do treat them well, right?) and don't do headcount reductions each time Wall Street feels a slight breeze, you can build up a competent team. Or you can continue the madness and profess endless confusion as to why you're unable to find anyone as smart as you to do the work you need done.

Managing is making other people’s work easier.

Delegating does that when otherwise the manager would be a bottleneck.

Delegating does not do that when the point of delegating is making the manager’s job easier.

“What can I do for you?” is the best question a manager can ask.

Complaining is among the worst things a manager can do.

Good luck.

I stand corrected. Up until 2012, it was indeed a felony in California, but there questions of accuracy of information and freedom of speech:

that the Supreme Court struck down.

> Many states have laws on the books prohibiting anyone from making disparaging comments about a particular bank’s financial condition.

I've found that it works well to add the prediction horizon as a numerical feature (e.g. # of days), and them replicate each row for many such horizons, while ensuring that all such rows go to the same training fold.

Well, not quite.

Laid off people do get paid unemployment benefits, and they also get the non-monetary benefit of not working. I don’t really consider that lost money to be 1:1 in value when considering you aren’t beholden to a work schedule.

If you have a working partner I would say it’s a no brainer to take your time. Jump on their healthcare and chill.

Oh yeah, if you have kids, you can put childcare costs on hold so you aren’t really losing 100% of your salary when you’re put out of work.

Sounds like you definitely made a name for yourself and even though the underlying morals of your activism might be good this doesn't lessen the impact on your local community so it might be that you are effectively "persona non grata" there?

I second what the parent comment said - your thoughts are indeed unusual based on your writings here.

> Keep in mind... I'm an edge case. I knew Vilerat. I worked for an EFF board member. I'm a literal dissident.

Don't know who that is, but either way being an edge-case and dissident isn't something to be proud of for someone in your situation. You need to sweep all of this under the carpet and not bring it up ever until you get back on track. Lie and make up a believable backstory if necessary.

Bringing these things up is completely irrelevant and weird which would put people off. The last bit especially is unnecessary - what are you hoping to achieve with such a threat? Do you just want people to tell you what you want to hear and reaffirm your misguided thoughts? That might make you feel better but won't help you get off the streets.

Based on the above you absolutely have a communication problem (and maybe indeed a mental health problem that you should seek help for) and I think this might be the reason you've basically lost touch with everyone despite name-dropping some pretty famous companies you've been involved with?

Wolfram Alpha has a model of the world manually created by humans. LLMs generate a model of the world from training data. "Explicitly describing" how something works doesn't mean you wave your hands and say "therefore meat is magic".

I have no idea why you think Wolfram Alpha is relevant. LLMs can use tools like langchain to do the exact same thing Wolfram Alpha does. What proof do you have for your original claim?

I think there really aren't very many job positions that try to hire candidates who have just started working with ML/AI for a lower pay, everyone wants 'all or nothing', exclusively trying to hire people who already did that specialization change somewhere else; many are willing to pay for experience, but they aren't willing to accept lack of it for less pay.
Netflix plans to open brick and mortar locations
switzerland is a landlocked country with no port and no access, and barely 1 refinery. It depends on others for imports of oil, none which are direct neighbors. Switzerland has also very rugged terrain and weather , for which early car models were not exactly built for.

Contrast this with california, with the most important US port, almost 2 dozen refineries, and immediate access to oil producers. Pleasant mild weather in most parts of the territory, and flatland.

My point - Switzerland built its transport network to play to its strengths. So did CA.
I am still confused by this too:

Lots of typical "industry applications" given for Kalman Filters involve moving objects, like air planes, rockets, and so on.

But all these objects generally rotate in some way, rotation is non-linear, and Kalman Filters cannot deal well with nonlinearities. Thus Kalman Filters struggle with rotation, and I haven't really found any good resources that handle this.

Do all these applications just skip over the fact that real-world objects can have a rotation/spin, or do they all use more sophisticated filters as suggested in e.g. [1]?

One of my favorite studies, an oft-replicated and cited study, tracks several hundred people who claimed to be "diet resistant". Using a technique invloving "doubly-lableled water" they were able to determine that every single person in the study who claimed to be diet resistant was overreporting their exercise and underreporting their calorie intake:

> The current government includes people who are terrible racists and they did the al-Alqsa stuff. They are the Israeli counterparts of the Hamas.

You say you see no paralells, and so, hypothetically speaking, you'd have no trouble if the Palestinians bombed the cities these law markers live in, who use the shield of democracy to hide behind a 10 million strong populace?

> They are not fighting for their people, they are fighting for their god, it's a war for the purpose of death not liberation.

The Palestinians don't desire death. I'm sure, they'd want to live as freely and as purposefully as folks on the other side of the fence in Ashkelon and Ashdod.

> The IDF specifically issued a clearance warning indicating its targets in advance. That's not something you do if you plan to kill civilians.

What about the seige? There have been reports of shelling without warning, too. I recall, that's how a journalist reporting from there died.

Surely, there is a way other than destruction at this scale to kill a handful of who, you claim, are suicidal folks fighting for God?

> Calling it ethnic cleansing is untrue at the moment. Even the inflated numbers published by the Hamas don't back that up. Notice that even now the Hamas is still firing missiles onto Israel and I just walked out of a shelter...

Surely, you can see that the refugee camps of the West Bank, the barriers in Jerusalem, the walls in Hebron, the crossings at Gaza pack a generation of humiliation which leads to desperation that results in nothing but more pain. Both sides have suffered enough. The problem I see is, one side (in particular, the terriblly racist but democratically-elected government you allude to above) thinks some more years of fierceful force, while they have the economic, political, and military backing of the Western world and while the Arab world is reeling from political and socio-economic turmoil, and it could all be finished soon.
Cover letters convey the non-technical aspects of an applicant that can give an indication of how well they'd fit into a team. Why did they apply to us, specifically? What about the position or company do they find interesting? What skills/hobbies/etc. do they have (or want to highlight) that indicates an interest in the nature of the work? That sort of thing.

The resume/CV tells you the "what", the cover letter tells you the "why". Basically, the cover letter is the sales pitch.

If you don't provide one, that certainly doesn't eliminate you from consideration, but providing one can give an important edge.
> You've always been able to change how the content that was sent is displayed

No, you have ever been able to change what the content owner has sent as changable content. Browsers allow you to change a subset of the content. You can not change how a video playsback. you can not change a gif is rendered etc.
If the content owner prefers it can provide you all content as an image as many "document" sites do to even prevent you from selecting the text let alone controling how it's displayed or even if it's displayed.

This is a contract; they provide a content that you either consume or not.
Especially Youtube, you have a choice, free with ads or payed without ads.
When there was not payment option everyone was screeming "I am ready to pay just turn off the ads". well now you can.

If you don't like either option don't use the site. noone owns you free content with your rules. free content comes with their rules.
You can't be cheap and chosy.
TL/M like you're doing (leading a project but also managing people aspects) can work but it's not ideal. If your team grows much beyond where it is now, you should probably decide if you want to be a TL or an eng manager, as if you try to do both, you'll do neither particularly well.

That aside... Trust. Trust your team, trust your manager, trust other teams. Resolve or escalate when that trust is violated (which ideally is a 1:1 conversation as a first step). Just try to remember that most people are some degree of competent and are trying to do the right thing.

Managing is an incredible opportunity to spread your knowledge around and increase everyone's productivity (and hopefully happiness). Your job is to unblock your team through any and all obstacles. Hopefully your experience helps here, and to increase it you should try to get another manager to mentor you.

I've been managing for a few years now. I miss the coding sometimes but I like watching people grow and being part of that growth.
Except for the ‘this video has been sponsored by…’ as soon as the content creator gets remotely popular. Am I paying for the removal of ads or not.

That’s even easier because they are technically fungible as well as legally.

It is possible to say this $100 bill was once stolen so we are going to seize it from you even though you are perfectly unrelated to the crime and just happen to have ended up with it. The law treats money specially and prevents that from happening, but otherwise it could. It can happen with something like jewelry or a car.

With electronic money you don’t even have a practical option even if there was one legally. There’s no specific hundred dollar bill to seize. Banks don’t track with that kind of granularity.
I would say this is a broader trend:

Activists appropriate the voice of some group, then marginalize people who don’t fit into that prescribed worldview — often telling people they’re a “bad X” for not being obedient.

This is part of a broader trend to divide-and-conquer by segregating people into identity based groups, who are permitted only a single view, lest you be denied that identity and ostracized — one that we’ve seen corporations and politicians only too happy to exploit.
