It's not a useful if you're prospective home buyer in a region but it's a reasonable illustration of how generally unaffordable housing has become.
The credit barely covers the increased property taxes incurred to inhabit a larger structure, to fulfil laws such as child safety equipment, taxes on diapers, extra costs of registering and state mandated insurance of larger vehicle with additional seats for children. And other mandates imposed by law. They are at best covering cost of their own mandates and other child related taxes.

Crane: Uber's Next-Gen Infrastructure Stack (2022)
Dual income equal pay... please read.
I was with you until you mentioned unions.

tech is fundamentally incompatible with unions for several reasons:

1. it will drive down the wages and give power to just another bureacracy
2. Union participation does not differentiate between highly skilled (and sought after) tech worker, from mediocre tech worker who gets by using copilot and chatgpt
3. I dont need union to negotiate with company on my behalf - I can negotiate by myself just fine
4. If startup goes bust - I can easily find a job at another startup, probably will even get a pay raise - just because my skills are highly sought after and in demand. There is literally zero upside for me that union can do
5. I dont want to share my specialist employee's power with faceless union burearacy

I know what it means to be a union worker - and trust me, it will never gonna work in software engineering
Just call yourself a manager and get paid more to not understand it.
GP meant that LLMs trained to learned "A is a B" won't necessarily be able to answer "give an example of B". Eg given the fact "Foo is the capital city of Bar", it might be able to complete "Foo is the capital city of _" but not "The capital city of Bar is _".

(Which isn't necessarily a evidence against truth models for out-of-distribution facts, it could just be a matter of indexing.)

I don't think I will ever understand how the freedom of separate IRC servers got replaced by a single platform that mistakenly calls each community a "server" when it's clearly all on the same server and moderated by the same company.

I personally got a warning threat from discord for (I assume) joining some server, but I joined a lot of servers I never said anything and I wasn't even sure what happened on the server to warrant such a warning since it was shut down and I couldn't even see anything.
Yeah I see it a lot, but most part of Africa are still not seriously considered. And if they are, it's probably through some agency that will make most of the "cut" while paying the locals minimum wage. I can still go back to EU if things don't work out, but I'll try this way for now.
I wasn't aware, but some developers do seem to be allergic to SQL at all cost and would go to great lengths to avoid it just because.
>Yeah, sounds silly.

It only sounds silly to our modern sensibilities, which I am increasingly considering regressive on the specific question of "what is a life well-lived".

To a pre-modern society that considers e.g. dreams to be vehicles of important meaning, religiousity to be a good thing in measure, idle time to be a gift and introspection to be one of the major points of existence, it doesn't sound silly at all. It sounds wise.

I'm a scientist by training and an engineer by trade, but as an empiricist, I am forced to admit that my life has gotten better by making room for the irrational, superstitious, obliquely-associative, self-contradictory omginternets to exist. Make of that what you will ;)
An admittedly anecdotal set of my encounters with people who take or have taken anti-depressants is most are on changing set of prescriptions because nothing works continuously and a high percentage of them are ones which no anti-depressant drug worked and were fixed by a different diagnoses for something like adhd.

An alternative explanation for this is that if you keep giving people different drugs and different diagnoses eventually they will feel better for unrelated reasons and will assume the current diagnosis/drug combo is what “fixed” them.
> That's a very ineffective use of capital and those types of decisions are worse in the end for the economy

Disagree - it frees those employees to begin working for more productive companies sooner rather than drag them through "you are fired with no provisions for healthcare. Good luck and don't get sick during the donut period."

- yes, it's an special qualifying trigger for the exchanges but you are asking someone navigate this in short order(likely end of the month or less than two weeks)

If what you want is persistent k/v, then there are already tons databases that can do that. Redis has a different use case, so what are you trying to say? That you want to misuse tools?

Oh great, looking forward to a captcha every time I download a paper.

(FWIW, arXiv is one place I trust not to make such stupid decisions, but migrating to a cloud often means the decisions are no longer made in-house...)
My philosophy is that if people want to spend (waste) time on closed journals more power to them.

Potentially when fields were small and niche this aggregation of topics might be useful. Today in modern search and computerized tools, the question is: why do we need them?

There's nothing in academia that I feel is more of a racket than this scheme.

I feel that _everything_ should be published and that natural discussion of said topic will drive the importance.
Virtual Desktop already does extremely well with Wifi 6/6e (with a nearby router, I only get 5-15 ms network latency even with settings all the way up, though encoding and decoding does add another 15-20 ms to that), so I'd be curious to see what or how much this adds. Is the idea to remove compression/decompression entirely by just blasting the full uncompressed bitrate with a 30-foot range?
Are there any gains to be had in just using this for pypi packages (no conda)? Solving for a monorepo with hundreds of packages is the cause of much time lost.

Elon has said several variations of this have happened on several occasions.

And yet this fragility never really made it into IR reports or SEC filings or annual reports.

So either he exaggerates (shocking concept from a man whose company has on multiple occasions had to follow him around and say "his claims of Tesla doing X, or doing it by Y date, are visionary, and not statements of fact"), or there's some hinky accounting going on.
Disappointed that such a snarky piece left out a crucial bit of context: In May 2022, Musk openly supported the Digital Services Act.

>> Breton: Of course, we discussed many issues, and I was happy to be able to explain to you the DSA, a new regulation in Europe, and I think that now, you understand very well. It fits pretty well with what you think we should do on the platform?

>> Musk: I think it’s exactly aligned with my thinking. I think I very much agree… It’s been a great discussion. I agree with everything you said, really. I think we’re very much of the same mind and anything that my companies can do that would be beneficial to Europe, we want to do that.

The DSA was passed in October 2022 [2]. Did Elon misunderstand the DSA back in May 2022? Was he misled by Thierry Breton? Maybe, but the DSA was getting finalized in April 2022 [2], and Elon could've read the bill or the Wikipedia article immediately after if not before chatting with Breton.

Like the sibling comment has said.

But what we saw during the peak was crazy, and some investors and execs thought it would last.

At least in regards to what pertains FTL freight, we saw a drop of tougjly 50% in volumes as consumer spending is down when compared to pandemic height. I am pretry sure there will be a seasonal trend upwards, but no where in the way it was before.

If you are in the industry, you can easily check how much cargo is moving around. Maybe by November-December it will be less than a 50% drop, but expect it to return by kid January-February.
I'd never reflected on the irony of these features being called Universal when they only work on Apple devices, but the 'just works' nature really does feel good.

I sometimes need to work on mobile development, so on advice from a sibling comment I installed KDE Connect, and it's actually pretty great and does copy/paste and remote mouse/keyboard pretty well, but you do have to a) enter the app, b) select the device, c) then finally choose the thing you want to do. They've made it about as frictionless as possible, but it won't be the same as first-class OS-level support. e.g., I can just copy some text on my Mac, and paste it a second later on my iPhone, without any manual orchestration

Much of the benefit of psychedelics is the introspection, which you can do sober as well (although the depth of the reflection is magnified and qualitatively different while tripping).

This is confirmed by the linked study (which shows that placebo-ketamine is also very effective).
Hasn't the rise in price greatly exceeded the rise in income? If so, sure they're always expensive in an absolute sense being of multiple years' pay, but enormously more so now. Since shelter is more important than other things, the rate of ownership really depends on how much is taken out for rentals or left empty. The money/capital remaining for anything else is smaller.

Size and quality don't change for pre-existing stock. There are a lot of crappy ranch houses that cost 1.3-1.8 MM now.
That's a pretty big jump but doable, depending on what you want to do. Just wanting to move a robot arm doesn't involve a ton of math or anything hard beyond basically trigonometry. There's pretty good software for that and things like driving robots and mapping that help a lot (ROS or the Robots plugin for Grasshopper are great). It's best to have a real goal like a small robot arm that you're trying to program to do a task, or a little driving robot you want to get to drive from A to B. That will help you with some scaffolding to hang further learning on. Good luck!
The sad thing is that you are correct.
I'm more interested in the effects of Ketamine on anxiety. I know that it's not as effective, but haven't seen any statistics specifically related to anxiety. I have gotten my Ketamine through Mindbloom, and just need to schedule my treatment and follow up dates. My depression effects are due to my suffering through anxiety for over 20 years (started in 1999). My anxiety also seemed to correlate with 2 bad trips from LSD in the late 90s, that resulted in my being hospitalized and injected with Thorazine to abort the trip. While I have had some depression from divorce and breakups, those bouts aren't lasting the way my anxiety is, and persists in day to day life. I imagine it is related to my being hospitalized at night for LSD, but I do not suffer anxiety unless I drive at night. I have seen various psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and have undergone biofeedback and cognitive behavioral therapy with limited success. I find that when my life as a whole is less stressful, my anxiety at night is less pronounced and sometimes non-existent.

Is it your serious contention that because insufficient numbers of (now ex-) employees of this company haven't posted on Hacker News within three hours of learning about their unemployment, that it's a non-issue?
I'll bite. I think with most relational and document databases, my view of the "classical world", you are often storing all of your data in tables or documents in a structured way. Normalizing the data where possible. You're then building indexes on that data to pull it out in a useful operational, optimizing for the most common operations. If a new use case comes up, you add some more tables, add some constraints, and create some new indexes.

I think with Redis, you are starting knowing that your use case needs to be fast. You start with the access patterns and fit that into key/value lookups (or search with modules). You're typically denormalizing the data, duplicating it or aggregating it from other places, so that you can serve operational data fast. Otherwise, just use in-memory SQL.
> What do you mean by packaged RAM

Depends. Apple uses LPDDR5X on a cheap substrate, which is basically just RAM chips soldered to a tiny motherboard, and that is already very fast. But it could also mean HBM on an expensive interposer or cheaper Intel EMIB, or something like Samsung's proposed Wide I/O, or even something new like stacked RAM with TSVs.

CPU/RAM packaging is getting increasingly complicated.

> what protocol does it use that would be faster than DDR5

Depends, but it can just be straight up DDR5. SODIMMS are terrible because they need 1.35V (vs 1.1V stock DDR5) for really slow speeds and terrible ram timings, while soldered DDR5 and LPDDR5X do not. The closer the DDR5 gets to the CPU, the faster, more power efficient and lower latency it gets.
The lines between data "stores" are blurring. I've seen it before where x team needs a fast key value store, so the obvious choice is redis. A year down the line, the product is evolving and the devs want to do some "classic" queries. Maybe it makes sense to keep it in redis based on their support for the queries you need, rather than migrating/replicating to a whole other system.
It seems to be the Chinese flag now, same as Simplified Chinese. It seems the flag got updated after this comment, then.

This doesn't get said nearly enough. Social media is also to blame. I know one person who got upset about his credit score (low 700s) from watching videos about it and then kept consuming information until he was seriously depressed about his (good) finances.

When I was in my twenties and early thirties, I never worried about any of this at all.
Not to downplay the current world problems, but you could make similar arguments at any point in history about any number of big problems humanity has faced. Yet, people still find hope and keep solving problems.
True, but the same is also true if a tax preparer makes a mistake. Also, the IRS almost always waives penalties (and often interest) unless they think it wasn't an honest mistake.

I'm not bothered by this risk. If a mistake is made and I owe additional taxes, then I'll just pay what I owe. No biggie.

Someone call the lawyers.
To be clear, in Australia, this would not be trading whilst insolvent. If the director was not negligent, and they had a legitimate reason to believe they would be able to pay their debt when it fell due, whether via new revenue, new debt or restructure of existing debt, then it wasn't trading whilst insolvent.

The directors had reduced expenses, had been seeking further investment, to increase revenue, and finally to sell the assets of the business, before voluntarily ceasing to trade. They executed their power and duties in good faith, with the care and diligence a reasonable person in their situation would have. It's not a crime to have a business fail.
Twice!

I left engineering (non-CS) at 36 y/o to become a firefighter-paramedic. Long story short, took EMT-Basic at night for shits and giggles, realized I really liked it. Then went to paramedic school afterwards not knowing what I was going to do with it. Close to graduation from PM, county FD was hiring paramedic only and cross training to be FF as well. I figured if I didn't do it then I never would so I did. The best career decision I ever made. I stayed for 14 years before covid scared me away due to a chronic medical condition I have. I was married and we had just had our 1st child. (Still married, oldest graduated H.S. this year and our other is a sophomore in H.S.).

During the 14 years as a FF/PM, I felt I needed a backup plan in case I got hurt or my medical condition got to the point I had to leave (thought of this WAY before covid). I went back to school for a master's in CS, online. I was 40 y/o when I started school and completed at 45 y/o. After graduation I worked a few part time, remote jobs as a software developer.

Then in 2020 covid hit, I had enough, and started applying for CS jobs. Landed my 1st full time gig at 50 y/o. Stayed for 2 years and then, last year at 52 y/o I landed a new software dev position.

Never once, even the positions I interviewed for but did get the job, did I feel my age was a factor. It was never my plan to have a diverse and disjointed resume, it just happened. I did things I felt were in the best interest for my family and/or me, with an eye on the future.

> Absolute scum of the earth.

Strikes me as harsh given that we know essentially nothing about the company's plans. The laid off employees were given severance and the CEO offered to personally intro people to hiring companies. The CEO stated it was to increase speed and focus (i read as reducing meetings/overhead).

I understand people are upset with layoffs taking place, but how do you think a company should behave when they realize they are wasting time and money?
I love that COBRA isn't just paying the entirety of the health insurance your employer was paying (or partially paying for you), but an additional 5% fee on top of that.

I suspect this cloud move is more for security -- to keep others out -- than to improve the product. As you mention, many decisions will no longer belong to Cornell. This is indicative of larger geo-political trends.

It's a complex issue. When I think of times I deal with negative thinking, it is usually rumination. Rumination is a big issue for me, and it can be negative, positive, or even neutral. Positive rumination is better, but I can overdo rumination even if it's mostly positive.
> arXiv was founded in 1991 by then-Los Alamos National Laboratory physicist Paul Ginsparg, Ph.D. ’81, prior to his return to Cornell in 2001.

Nothing is going to instantly change housing availability, but shrugging and giving up now will make things way worse in those future decades.
Would/could you apply this same argument to books?
It's possible that they jump straight to the hybrid solution that many companies now make. Like migrating to the cloud could be just to have backups of papers in s3 with failures to download them initially then pass through to the s3 location seamlessly. It could also be trying to rewrite everything to run on lambda.

My point being that migrating to the cloud means different things to different companies/groups.
Question: I’m trying to have DALL-E output renders of websites, but fail every time. I give it style, sections, tone, placement, etc… have any suggestions?
Most of those are just rehashing of already discovered ideas. It is not like they have much of a secret sauce. Just put some concepts together. If you are a good developer, you can understand what they do in no time. But that makes it even more annoying to see the hype around something that is nothing special. Add to that a mountain of silly configurations and limitations due to design decisions, and you get a "modern" web stack. Take for example "tree shaking". I remember how there was a hype around it. Every second day I would see some post about tree shaking or read some blog or whatever, where people point out tree shaking. Tree shaking! Tree shaking here! tree shaking there! Most of them never stopped and thought about how they shouldn't need to be shaking, but instead should avoid putting that much shakable shit into their trees in the first place.

It almost seems like people are getting off on the fact, that they manage configuration complexity in web projects, as if that makes them somehow qualified. Instead they should be saying:

Wait a minute, why am I configuring all this shit? Why is my web app so big, that using a minifier makes any significant difference? Does my web app really do that much? Couldn't I get by with just rendering templates and add a tiny amount of JS?

But people do not ask and continue riding the hype train and it even makes them more in demand, because way too many people think they need this.
