As a gay man I was surprised at this too, but really it's probably because it conveniently provides a means for them to convert a man to a woman, who has much fewer rights/power in their world. I wonder if they would be as friendly to the idea of FtM trans surgeries where a man who is born as a woman would "gain" rights (in their eyes).

I find it so sad though, that gay men are forced to undergo reassignment in order to survive there, rather than be able to celebrate both being gay and their own masculinity - it's taking "being gay, a man who likes men" away from gay men, there.
Almost every live lobster I've seen at least has some kind of mottled redness on it.

But snow crabs also aren't red until cooked. Alive/raw they're more of a reddish brown.

The author probably Googled some pictures of crabs and lobsters and didn't even realize they might look different while alive.

I've found a plain (hardback, moleskine-like) notebook with no preprinted page numbers / dates works for me. Dates are filled in when entries are made.

It avoids situations where there's a feeling of wastage when a page isn't fully filled, or cramped writing when there's more than a page worth of information to write down.
Depending on what you're trying to do, you likely want either continuations (which aren't supported in Python directly, but which you can emulate by writing your function in continuation-passing style) or a debugger with rewinding (which is fairly cutting edge, but might exist for Python? PyPy blogged about an early version a few years back). The main use cases for a specific point interrupt are covered by these techniques.

That said, Temporal is very similar and supports multiple languages, including Python.
If he cared, he would transfer the rights into a trust for the benefit of some charity with some strict constating documentation that prevents misuse. But this is only good until the rights naturally expire.
I too enjoyed this a lot and my wife did too. It's YA material, but well written and well plotted both internally and across the three volume arc. Her protagonist is given an amusing voice so it's not too heavy despite the mayhem.

Obviously you have to be open to the fantasy setting, and I'd describe it more as a bit of a reaction to the cosiness of Potter than a mere derivative.

I find it solves the installation problem really well: each installed program gets its own virtual environment, but the single binary is still added to your path.
I’m reasonably sure I’ve done things like that. I wouldn’t need the mirror check because I would already know what’s there during the right turn. However I would personally aim to stay dead center in lane to reduce the skateboarder’s uncertainty during their own tricky maneuver.

The IT in question started with Hollerith cards¹, processed by electromechanical equipment. These were originally numeric only — digit n represented by a hole in row n which would stop or start a counter wheel. (Punched cards were processed row by row, not column by column.) The alphabetic extension added a second hole near the top edge, handled using much more complicated and expensive equipment. EBCDIC was originally a straightforward mapping of these holes into an 8 bit space, and its arrangement makes sense seen that way.

ASCII on the other hand derives much more from communications equipment (telegraphy) than IT gear.

It looks like this particular die-off was more severe than it otherwise would have been, due to unusually warm ocean temperatures and the resulting higher caloric need for the crabs. So the cycle is natural, but the extreme depth of this particular "trough" in the cycle seems like an abnormal event.

Some of the /proc APIs have been plugged into netlink and can be used from there. Nicer interface if you can embed libnl or libmnl.
I think it's more that Japanese speakers just don't have those types of sounds in their phonetic repertoire. Some may be able to pronounce them, but most will not (and may not even notice the difference).

Every person has a certain limited set of consonants, vowels, diphtongs, triphtongs, tones, and even syllables that they are able to recognize and reproduce. This is something you can train to recognize more, but you will probably never be able to pronounce or even distinguish the totality of all those used in all languages, even just the living languages on Earth.

Even if you did, there is an added complication that some languages actually used multiple sounds interchangeably, and explicitly distinguishing them may actually confuse you. For example, most European languages recognize various consonants as the same "R" sound, even though they are vastly different (French R is a back of the throat trill, Italian R is a trill near the palate, and English R is articulated next to the palate without any trill). If you come from a language where these are distinct sounds, you may have trouble understanding that two people who use different R sounds are pronouncing the same word.
Actually, the idea would be to NOT exclude them from life. Just the opposite. Say a person is convicted of drunk driving. Maybe they need to travel to work where mass transit is not an option but we want them to continue to be employed, support their family, pay taxes and so forth. If they were to have the option of using a self driving car or car service at a reasonable price, then such people can continue to be productive members of society and maybe even that might allow them to afford to address their underlying issue. Maybe I am being a Pollyanna but we begin by imagining.

I wouldn't make it a high priority. If there's one thing I know about conda users it's that "no conda package available" has never stopped them. In fact they prefer to pip install inside their conda environment, and the only conda packages they use are the ones that touch Nvidia drivers (e.g. pytorch).
The significance seems to be that it shows real-world results from a malaria vaccine that’s only moderately effective:

> In clinical trial results published in 2015, RTS,S showed 36.3% efficacy against clinical malaria a median of 4 years after toddlers were vaccinated.

Some possible side-effects seem to be ruled out:

> Giving RTS,S to 5-month-olds to 24-month-olds did not hurt the uptake of other childhood vaccines, which had been a concern. And it didn’t cause a decline in bed net use due to a false sense of security.

> Why is it absurd? Either you accept customers or users with foreign names or you don't. If you don't, fine! If you do, then you should be able to store those names correctly.

I think parent makes a point about employees. You can argue all you want that it is reasonable to accept and store any unicode character, but it is in no way reasonable to expect that the person on the other side of the glass to know every single script in the world, and every single unicode character.

Your position is reasonable for those people entering their own name, on their own device, which is configured to their own language - a system should not fall over on that - but that is not the use-case presented by the parent.

> I find it laughable that airlines are given as a shining example of operational excellence.

They're certainly doing it better than anyone else, IME.

The use-case is "employee has to enter the name, on their device, with their keyboard". What's your better alternative, the one that makes you use words like "absurd" and "laughable"?

After all, this use-case is not going away anytime soon.

Whether we like it or not, having a name with uncommon characters is going to make your life difficult in those cases where your name has to be entered on a device and keyboard that is non-native to you.
Shopsin's is not closed! They are now at Essex Market (Essex and Delancey, in the Lower East Side). Next building over from me. I think some of Kenny's offspring took it over (but not sure of that). Not quite as fun as the old place, but still a pretty quirky menu.

More people being able to express themselves creatively? New programming languages, companies, new ideas, more decentralization? Science and technology are far from being completely explored, many problems far from automated.

Learning to Become Great Person
Q. What's the best way to learn things?
First of all, What is Learning?

making your brain see thing from Someone else's Perspective, and collecting that information is called Learning.

Q. How to see thing from Someone else's Perspective?

A: by being in their shoes and seeing, Why did they saw things this way which led to a better outcome! What mental model! How they looked at things.

Q. Who's shoes to look for Learning:

A: Learning is Like having different lenses, you shouldn't be Looking for every other persons Lense, you should only look for the best Lenses out there, yet they all are almost free, you just need internet connection.

Only Look for best lenses, best minds, understand their mental model

this is the best way to learn things.

thoughts are like papers and mind is like bag. So greater the value of Papers, greater the value of mind, So great Peoples have worked really hard to find best quality Papers and have made their mind One of the greatest. well, Every great Person has different Papers, hard thing about this is world is full of Papers with no value so the easy way to find great Papers is to look in great Persons bag, they have best Papers in the world.

next step: understand How they chose, those Papers, How did they thought about it

Every great Person has different Papers (Some papers are same but mostly are different) So You also have to figure out which Papers are they gonna be. but in the beginning you can have their Papers initially from great peoples

Q. Why can't there be great Persons with Same Papers?

A: Cause if One great Person has those Papers that Person has filled that Place, you have to figure out others Places, So in that different Papers will be required.

Summary:

You Can't сору great Persons exactly, understand their mental model (way of thinking) and do something different in the world with it.

there are enough opportunities for great Person cause the Supply of great Persons is very less.

We're embracing copy-and-paste with the product rather than increasing abstraction. The tool provides the HTML or React code for building the generated UI. The way you actually use it, is by copy-pasting it into your app. From that moment on your workflow and specially debugging workflow is exactly as before. The tool just writes the first 100 lines of code to get you started with a great UI.
I don't know the answer, but I think, that there could be two reasons:

1. Tailwind is css but "disconnected" from other parts of the result. So it could be easier to generate.

2. The code that was used for training, often used tailwind and thus the ai can work better with it.
My shell-to-python heuristic is similar, though I'll write longer shell scripts if I find I need to run a lot of subprocesses (it's just unwieldy in python) and I'll write shorter python scripts if I have to do logic best expressed with objects, tuples, hashtables etc. (Technically bash has everything you need, but I would prefer not to).

Of course, there are languages like Ruby and Perl that would cover both bases pretty well, but I'm not willing to introduce a third scripting language to most teams and projects I work on. Not to mention that those languages have their own issues.

Not sure if it helps, but every chance I get I keep them on the line as if I was falling for it (similar to but less sophisticated than kitboga, a man who has made a career out of scamming scammers).

The robot callers are adapting, recently using soundboards (a legit sounding "hi this is bill." but really a sound file) and speech to text to interpret my replies and keep the happy path automated as much as possible. Do not try deviating from the program, i.e if you ask what day it is, they will detect the subversion and hang up. I use a credit card number generator to let them try over and over with bad numbers. I have heard a rumor that credit card networks charge a fee for each failed number (that passes the LUN checksum). Can anyone confirm if this is true?

I've not read "Nettle & Bone" yet - but have read some of T Kingfishers other work, can be quite big on the 'unconventional magic systems' as well (e.g. "A Wizard's Guide To Defensive Baking").
How committed to be to one's job is a dynamic topic. To me, the ideal dynamic is finding a place that will recognize and reward you for working hard and "owning it" - and to work hard and "own it" in that environment.

In contrast, working hard in a place that doesn't reward you is sad. Slacking in a place where you can succeed more if you try harder is also sad.

I find that some people will perceive themselves to be exploited and orient their life around avoiding it, regardless of the situation (vs, reserving that feeling for avoiding actually exploitive situations.) For example, it's common to see HN posts describing someone as "subjecting themselves to unpaid overtime" when they work hard - meanwhile the person saying it is making $60K while the person being talked about is making $600K. There are some cases where working hard/loyalty/etc can lead to outsized rewards - but you need to be smart and keep your eyes open for that kind of space.

And then, assuming you are in the right kind of environment - allowing yourself to care and be engaged makes your work days much more fun. I think commonly in the example I described, the person that's proud of inoculating themselves from exploitation not only make 10% of what they can, but the exactly 8 hours of work they put in is a miserable drag for them. The guy working harder for 10X the comp might also be having more fun.
Same here, you can get pretty far with just catting, grepping, awk/sed/sort/uniq'ing all the various /proc entries. And not only /proc/PID/stuff, but also each individual thread (task) state from /proc/PID/task/TID/* too.

Initially I wrote a python program for flexible querying & summarizing of what the threads of interest are doing (psn) and then wrote a C version to capture & save a sampled history of thread activity (xcapture) [1]. I ended up spending too much time optimizing the C code - as just formatting strings taken from /proc pseudofiles and printing them out took very little time compared to the kernel-dives when extracting things like WCHAN and kernel stack via the proc intereface.

That's why I've since built an eBPF prototype for sampling the OS thread activity. The old approach still works even on RHEL5 machines with 2.6.x kernels without root access too :-)

The description doesn't explain exactly what this extension does.

I assume it monitors all XHR requests as you browse a website, and if the request/response matches [some criteria (e.g. is JSON?)] it will assume it's an API request and log it?

Is that correct?

If so, it will only work on websites where the frontend is implemented like a PWA, with lots of AJAX calls to fetch data, etc. For sites whose pages are all generated server-side, the extension won't generate any API schema, right?

Edit: Also how does it differentiate "API requests" with regular AJAX content fetching? If a website fetches some arbitrary content via an AJAX request (e.g. some lazy-loaded HTML), that's not an API request. That's just part of a website's layout.

Do you not consider SVD/PCA to be "embeddings"?

Latent Semantic Indexing long precedes word2vec (I believe the initial paper was 1988) but also attempted to derived semantic vectors (and was arguably successful) using SVD on the term-frequency matrix representing a corpus.

I would certainly consider this an example of using "embeddings" that was quite heavily used in practice prior to the explosion of deep learning techniques.

It's curious that many people are rushing to defend the notion that there's nothing suspicious about calling a non-public product with a mediocre 5/10 video a 'game-changer'.

Some people are having a hard time understanding that the knowledge embedded in language and culture includes much of the skills that we understand as reasoning and inference.

The line of thought is that statistical predictions of language normality cannot possibly equal reasoning, but that ignores the capacity of a metascale n-dimensional matrix to encode much, much more than merely words and their statistical frequency of appearance.

Much like a table of sines and cosines, computation itself can be encoded in data. LLMs allow us to extract this data.

many chinese characters consist of combinations of other characters. most common is a combination of two, where one component suggests the meaning, while another hints at the pronunciation.

here is one character made up of 11 others:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biangbiang_noodles#Chinese_cha...

this shows that new characters can be created not by inventing new strokes, but by simply combining existing characters to convey a new meaning, much like we occasionally do create new words in english by combining existing ones, even though that process in english is not productive, unlike eg. german, where it is quite normal. the difference is that these new words only have one syllable.

with the digitalization the creation of new characters essentially ends. the creation of the simplified chinese character system also pushes against creating new, more complicated characters.

it is going to be interesting to see how that will affect language development. new "words" can still be created by using a sequence of characters, but that means that each character keeps their syllable sound. whereas new compound characters would have a single syllable. so if a new meaning emerges for a syllable, a new character can't be created for it. will this prevent new single-syllable words? or will it lead to multiple characters being pronounced with a single syllable?
Obviously that is a troll. Who cares that your name on a bank statement does not contain your diacritics?

Yes, of course it would be nice if all inter-banking systems would support UTF8 or at least ASCII. But they don't. There are various inter-banking systems that simply are so old that they only support EBCDIC. Newer do, but even quite modern SWIFT still requires the EBCDIC set to make sure data goes through to each and every bank on this planet.

And in practice, if you have diacritics in your name, and do any kind of international business or travel, you are used to having found a transcription to use.

My wife has a diacritic in her last name. Even if forms at airlines now support entering them, she NEVER does. Because you can be sure that sooner or later in your travel, with this name getting copied to some immigration system, Covid health certificate database etc, it will get corrupted.

She never had any problems whatsoever with having her name transcribed on all travel documents, but with her passport containing her name with diacritics. Because, surprise, while I don't know what exact encoding the digital part of the passport contains, and least the machine readable line also uses only the ASCII or EBCDIC character set. So the best way to handle this technological debt is not to sue someone, but just use whatever that machine readable line in your passport days.

Names suck, anyway. The idea of having NON-UNIQUE identifiers to uniquely identify human instances is stupid anyway. Everyone on this planet should simply get a UNIQUE name in an universally agreed character set. I'd be even OK with Base64 of UTF8 ;)
