TSMC started with $58 M at $200 M valuation in the late 1980s. I think it’s like 15% annual growth rate since then and the centerpiece of a nation’s geopolitical doctrine. You can build rocket ships in many different ways. You get all sorts of outcomes.

No one really knows outcome till they give it a shot. People used to make fun of the idea of a software guy building spaceships and cars and he’s doing it better than the incumbents. No one knows what will work till it’s done.
Thanks for the update and I hope this works out.
This is like saying planes were invented to deliver you to more businesses, faster.
Sure, if an area is low crime, I'd say your policing strategy doesn't matter a ton, assuming your cops don't engage in police brutality or corruption. Probably in a low crime neighborhood, competing departments would focus on friendly interactions with the public and making really sure that none of their officers look bad in viral videos.

I know I mentioned randomization, but I don't think uneven distribution is necessarily a problem. Ultimately, a voter who looks at 3 different logos on the ballot is going to think back to interactions they had with the cops, and what their friends tell them about the cops, in order to figure out which logo to vote for. Different voters are going to see different distributions of police presence, but that's probably fine. In the same way people tend to vote for the incumbent candidate, I would guess that voters will tend to vote for the logo they see the most in their neighborhood, assuming that logo seems to be doing an OK job.

Another way to approach it is that each competing department could have a different service area, and the service areas grow or shrink every election based on election results. This could be done algorithmically by splitting the city in to precincts and finding an assignment of precincts to departments that approximately conforms to the election results, while also keeping service areas for any given logo contiguous through time and space as much as possible (minimize travel and switching costs).

All this stuff could work for schools too btw. It achieves the "skin in the game" aspect of charter schools while reducing the ability/incentive to shuttle problem students elsewhere in order to juice your school's numbers (potentially, depending on implementation).

Or, you know, "Lab Leak of Coronavirus casts chill over virology research".

I know it's not definitive it was a lab leak, but many US agencies including, notably, the Department of Energy, say it's likely it was.

And when you change the headline to reflect that, it sure does change the message.
I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree then.

From my perspective, that characterization has taken on an even more interesting turn now that I have read through a history of Chinese martial arts, and its role throughout the centuries and modernization. Regardless of whether the project succeeded or failed, that subplot was very much in line with the themes and patterns of Chinese history.

Your article mentions that 97-99% of people lurk to read content produced by the 1%.

Man this takes me back to Goa in the 90s. It was just about the only place that would book Russian DJs, so it was the only place where reel-to-reel DJing was better known than vinyl. It's amazing to see what people have done with the style in the intervening decades, but for me nothing beats the old tunes from the beach parties.
Numbers like that are highly misleading, because it's a conditional. If your chances of dying from something are 1 in 10 million, and a treatment changes that to 1 in a billion, then that treatment would mean you're 99% less likely to die of whatever. But the risk of death is so extremely low to begin with, that that 99% figure is largely just noise.

I mean noise in both the colloquial sense, as well as the statistical one. It's difficult to measure the effectiveness of treatments when what you're treating is so relatively harmless. An experimental study, outside of an absurd size, would show 0 deaths. So you only have observational studies left, which tend to be deeply flawed and highly susceptible to number juking.

In any case, if somebody dies from the flu they were likely quite elderly, or had severe preexisting conditions. And so it's this group of people that taking things like a flus hot can make the most sense. But if you take e.g. a younger to mid aged person of good health, his chance of dying from the flu are practically zero. If they want to get it, more power to them. But saying all people should get a flu shot, does not seem to make much sense.

Many casual listeners

Since the target audience is 'people who dance to the same music from ~midnight to sunrise', the ability to sustain a steady pace over that period matters the same way it would for a marathon runner or similar. I haven't gone racing in a while but goa parties used to have a pretty consistent cycle of warmup for an hour, take off over an hour, full-on for 4-6 urs depending on the time of year, then the sun comes up and it would switch to 'sloa', basically the same musical flavor but coasting down to a walking pace.
When it is going, they’re more dependent on your business, plus you’re no longer competitors, at least not in an area where they have a multi decade advantage.
You can probably draw some broad, population-level conclusions from statistical data that shows more police violence against minorities, though some can be explained by other socioeconomic factors as well. In general, I'd say that American police are simply violent to everyone.
MACS are random. Given a MAC and a connection to a LAN, you can easily answer the question, "is there a station with that MAC here". If it's not here, and you have a single gateway to another network, you can figure out that to talk to that MAC, you need to go over a gateway. And then things eventually go funny. We hit a network that talks to four others. It has no idea where to send the packet destined for that MAC. It could send it to all four (multicast). Then when a reply comes from one of them, remember that destination for next time. Remember for how long? Sending a packet to every destination will cause an exponential explosion of that packet throughout the network.

It works on small scales. We can stitch together a few LANs with ethernet switches. The switches initially forward everything to all ports, but learn where the MACs are so as to send frames only to ports where the destination MAC is known to be.

Ethernet switching won't scale to anywhere near the complexity of the Internet.
What risk could possibly be worse than a global pandemic? That seems to be what gain of function research purports to be studying to prevent- and in this case it appears that the research virus caused the very thing it was supposed to (indirectly) prevent.
I think it depends on the team
I imagine this would be helpful when making movies if you could basically play around with the scenes without having to refilm it several times to get the best one.
If only the pandemic hadn't happened in early 2020, we'd have probably gotten those four astronauts to mars by the end of that year...
You're absolutely kidding yourself if you think these figures reflect anything resembling reality.
Are most zoonotic crossovers more than one step or are most misadventures NONHUMAN => HUMAN? Either way if market activity doesn't change year on year then rate of dice rolls don't change on that front.

However there is no reason to believe that such misadventures take place in a single generation and immediately produce a viable and successful agent.

Producing something that spreads to humans but not will will none the less produce many orders of magnitude more useful and numerous dice rolls. Such actions may not be immediately obvious even if they were fatal. People after all get sick and die all the time.

I doubt we have enough data to meaningfully forecast risk.

By transport protocol I mean layer 4. FC/TR/ATM/IB are (mostly) layer 2 protocols.

I think the idea is that Falcon assumes the underlying network is semi-crappy and works around that (e.g. Falcon assumes that packets arrive out of order then it puts them back in order).

This is not an issue specific to mathematics. Listen to a couple of surgeons talking shop in a hospital cafeteria. They're going to be using all kinds of arcane anatomical and medical terms the average person would have no hope of understanding.

> the law regulates (or frees) the market.

and yet, black markets exists, especially in places where the law fails to provide or provision a sufficiently free market for some goods/services.

So i would argue that the law does not decide this, or you could call it law of nature that decides it.

The every noise at once site is also a great genre map I've sunk far too much time into: https://everynoise.com/
I play psy-trance at a range of tempos, from dub stuff at 70-80bpm, through prog stuff around 110-130bpm, to more high energy stuff up at 140-150bpm.

The main reason for sticking to a tempo is because psy-trance, and (good) trance music in general is about the constant pulse. The goal is to put the listener in 'the zone' (a trance even :P), and then give them a bunch of ear candy in the mids and highs to keep their happy little brains occupied.

So for any given set DJs generally pick a tempo and stick to it and deliver a driving, consistent pulse, and everything else is just colouring in on top.

I don't understand your not understanding. Just because the band changes doesn't mean that the fans have to follow along if they don't like what they've started to produce. Everyone has their likes/dislikes. If someone makes specific reasonings for their tastes not following the new direction doesn't mean they are wrong. You're no better for making your comment than someone stating theirs.

Up until the O365 apocalypse, there were tons of people operating 100k to 1m user email systems on a few servers with a single digit number of staff (i.e. every university and most big non-tech companies).

As you mention email is super sticky. I can't fathom an argument where OneMedical didn't get them more room for innovation than buying/building a solution to a problem that was solved in 2004.

I'm not GP but I have used it to debug my car remote. It was unlocking but not locking. Used the Flipper to confirm that the remote wasn't sending anything on lock button presses.

Otherwise haven't found any use for it. I wanted to use it to clone my garage remote but couldn't get it to work.

Why threads are a bad idea (for most purposes) https://blog.acolyer.org/2014/12/09/why-threads-are-a-bad-id...
There's a trend, always in humanity, to reject the prior consensus, usually involving ridicule, to show you are in the new, cutting-edge crowd. Ridicule is ridiculous itself, but the renewal is IMHO probably a good thing.

In the last (ten?) years it's seemed to be rejecting post-modernism (popular even on HN, where people seem to use post-modernism to reject itself) and then the Enlightenment itself, upon which freedom and democracy rely.

But rejection is just reactionaryism, it's just negative. What positive world does Sapolky envision? In what direction do they lead? (Don't tell me that there is no positive world, etc. - despair, part of the trendiness I suspect, is just lazy reactionaryism.)

Also, one must ask, who benefits? Some bad people - the dictators, the liars, the cults of personality, as far as I can see.
It seems that the $1 is less about generating meaningful revenue. Instead, it’s a token charge meant to weed out mass bot accounts.
About to turn 30, still struggling with what I think you’re talking about.

Have you tried examining what it is that actually gets you to work on those productive days? I wonder if you’re glossing over that part while you focus on what’s getting you into those unproductive days. Are you waiting until you get to sort of a critical mass, until feeling lazy feels bad enough that you can’t handle it anymore, and that’s your motivation for getting back towards being productive? If that’s the case, it might be worth contemplating how sustainable that is for you, and if there’s anything more sustainable you could use for motivation.
Not sure what you're saying here. Tar supports appending new files and new versions of files to an existing archive without rewriting the entire archive. I don't believe it supports marking files as deleted (not sure why, tbh) but you can add an empty file with the same name for non-tape storage to prevent extracting the original version. It does this by simply appending the new version of the file to the end of the archive, which is understandable as unlike zip files tar (tape archive) was designed explicitly for tape, where there is no random access.
Unless you're referring to editing files in-place inside a tar file, which should actually be easier than doing so with a zip file (as long as the new version isn't longer than the old version, and you're not actually storing it on tape).
Trying the app out. Initial thoughts:

- It's not on the appstore (yet?), so I am going down a risky path requiring trust in a website.

- Hmm it's nagging me about backups and needing access to my storage... oh and it wants a password? But I don't want my backup password protected...

- Great interface though!

- Where can I import my existing subscriptions?

- It's slow to search my enabled platforms, but not too bad.

- Video playback is instant and seems to be blocking ads by default (is that a good thing for content creators, big philosophical question?)

- Chat and all the extra options and less-opinionatedness is great for me, but would be over a normy's head

- Playback is supported with the screen off, what I would expect, and great! Sorry youtube red.

- This came at the best time now that youtube is detecting ad blockers in my region... intentional?

- I wish this was on PC/browser as well

- Okay, I'm ready to pay... how? The option to pay is non-existent in this release seemingly

- How does this benefit content creators currently making a living from the specific platforms through ads? Seems like it would jeopardize their existence if this took a significant share of viewers.
Again, what details?

From the comments as of writing, few read between the lines of this sloppy reporting: it's to standardize cloud-desktop apps for Amazon's internal use.

Meta, for example, consolidated to Workplace + Google, away from Dropbox, Microsoft, Apple, and others. They use AWS and Azure for some 50k desktops on demand and a few servers, but it mostly deploys to its own metal because it's way, way cheaper than AWS in most use-cases.

>All the sensors and on-board compute are expensive, and also the R&D, and the 3D maps. Both services rely on detailed 3D maps of the areas they service, and are geofenced to that.

I think we need to split this into fixed vs variable costs. It's hard for me to believe that the sensors+compute is more expensive than a human. Those sound like the variable costs. I'd be surprised if selling an additional ride causes e.g. Cruise to lose a bit of money, but I'd love to be corrected.
> EDIT: To expand on why this clearly isn't targeting bots, this only applies to new users. It therefore does nothing regarding all the bots currently on the platform. It is clear that they don't want to chase off existing users which applies to both real users and bots.

Existing bots can be slowly banned off. The problem with bots, on any platform, is their ability to just make a new account instantly.

Damn right! I'll forever be gutted knowing that I had the chance to see Voices From the Lake live and ended up not going.
I still think it would be a totally different story if it were Newton, Japan rather than Newton, Iowa. Police culture doesn't stop at city limits. It permeates a society. The police in Newton, Iowa likely have the same warrior mindset as the ones in Baltimore, they just don't see nearly as much action.

But every police officer in Newton knows that there's nothing stopping a criminal from another state just showing up in town, heavily armed, and robbing a liquor store. Whereas doing that in Japan would be far more difficult.

Heck, when the former president of Japan (Shinzo Abe) was assassinated the shooter used a home-made gun.
