Not everyone agrees that public transport and rebuilding cities around them is a good idea. That’s what you people who are obsessed with trains and busses don’t get. Self driving cars are still cars, and cars come with a freedom public transportation can’t match. It’s more likely that self driving cars become public transportation than we enact the fantasy that the US changes it’s entire cultural mindset to hate individual choice.

I for one don’t want to ride a bus, every time I’ve been on one there’s been some drugged out maniac sketching everyone out. They’re also usually gross like public bathrooms and building more, forcing everyone to use them, isn’t going away to change that.
Nope. You're thinking of theoretical computer science. Which is a subfield.
Imo most trials should have two parts (1) do a blind bid so competitors can conduct trial (2) fund trial yourself as well. Hide names of both people conducting trial.

Keep results hidden and send both results to FDA for review. Publish both results after review. Only attach names of entities who conducted the trial at the end.

This enables for a full replication and evaluation without anyone knowing who did anything. And at the very least reduces risk of corruption.
Technically, that's also an unintended consequence.

Certainly an observation optimism can cling to, but the mechanisms of evolution suggest that eventually most humans will have some form of immunity to this effect (we pass on more than genes)
So does everyone else, including the guy who wrote the article.

The only problem is, nobody does. Including the guy who wrote the article.
Hi Jared.

Awesome use of LLM. Do you position V0 as helper for developers or designers?

You can just put a note on the account: "Actual name contains accent acute over second e of first name: our system is unable to render this. User is quite sensitive about this so apologize again for our inability."

Not every organization would require this, it depends on the processing. A bank would since it sends you a bunch of correspondence. A restaurant taking a reservation wouldn't if they wouldn't save and sell the information or use it for marketing.

Sometimes I think about how Iceland has made it illegal to give children "names that cause embarrassment[1]" and wonder how such a law would work out in a society as diverse in the US. It would almost certainly be struck down under the 1st Amendment but handwaving that away.

I'm not sure why you can't put hard work into home, community and your job? Is there a specific reason you think that is the case?

You could make the argument that working hard at your job is setting an example for your family (kids) and community (through leadership/running a successful business/employing people of the community/etc).

There some doomsayers coming out of the woodwork, esp writing for WSJ and Forbes (https://www.forbes.com/search/?q=stock%20market&sh=44155cf92...).

The conspiracy theorist in me thinks there is a subversive campaign trying to shift emotions and get the market to tank in time for election season.
Not OP, but I've definitely read books by authors I otherwise enjoy which I'd consider to have lecturing segments in them. I'm hesitant to name specific examples though...

I think something similar happens with politics. Some people say they don't want politics in their media, but what they usually mean is they don't want half-assed and shallow political takes. If you're going to take on a serious and important topic then you need to do a great job, otherwise you're just detracting from the experience or trying to farm brownie points from your tribe.

I love strong and complex female leads. But I want the story to focus on their journey and struggles. Not to receive multiple lectures on how women are just as capable as men. It's just bad writing when it fails at the core tenet of "show, don't tell".

I recently read a book which dealt with colonialism as a central theme. The author did a great job with some aspects of the story, but they made all the villains incredibly shallow and one dimensional. This is then used to lecture the reader on why colonialism is bad. I don't even disagree with the points that were being made, but I thought it was a poor vehicle for the message.
The "lab book" form might be of interest. Here's an example guide to keeping one:

When I first did a chemistry class in high school, this was the first thing they taught us. At the time I thought it was the most boring pointless thing ever. Of course now I realise how important it is in academia and industry (to have evidence of the discovery process) and while I don't have to do this or follow it exactly, I do approximate to this and have found it very useful. It's also the only useful thing I took out of chemistry class as I was a terrible student :)

In addition to that, I now keep an open text editor tab with the following items and update it several times a day:

An in-progress list

A todo list

A "blocked" list

A "done" list (sections for each week)

That works pretty well for me.
seconded. of course, ideally you should do all three as best you can.

the way i always think about it is that humans are among the most efficient runners in the entire animal kingdom; some tribes in Africa still practice persistence hunting. so by extension, cardio is going to be the worst choice for weight loss - but the other benefits still make it worth it.
I think you took what I was saying as giving exclusive meaning. Work is just a part of life. I'm not seeing anybody making the argument that work is the ultimate meaning of life.
The alternative is niche lifestyle businesses. Restaurants, cottage industries, independent contractors, etc.

There are lots of tiny niches all over the economy where these small businesses can thrive and pay their workers fair wages. They are harder to find in high cost-of-living areas, however.
In some cases I’d even suspect the incomprehension might go both ways. If the "educated" citizen is truly educated (and not just upper class), they ought to not only understand the lay person, but chose lay words in return. Sticking to their upper-class dialect would be passive-aggressive oppression born out of class contempt…

…which I’m sure actually happens in real life.
I've started moving towards this sort of thing for my daily work using Logseq's journal feature. I add small snippets of detail about conversations and findings I have during the workday to a daily note. I've found it really helpful for the searchability aspect.

Ah, I'm an engineer not a theorist. Such degenerate input is unlikely to be a valid use case, can be detected, and I can reject it.

I think the right strategy is to try and select for a place that rewards you properly for hard work in interviews. If you're in a place that doesn't slacking is generally bad for your career so my advice is mostly to move on rather than slack. It's very hard to keep your career on an upward trajectory if you put in two years of slacking somewhere. At some point that's going to hurt you in terms of the sharpness of your knowledge and what you can demo/talk about on your successful projects when interviewing.

I didn't realize the average was so high, but looked it up and confirmed.

Life without work is only empty if you've been raised on a protestant "work gives life meaning" attitude and you can't envision any other way.

There are monks living in mountain monasteries who spend their whole lives in quiet reflection, doing basic chores and making basic meals, and they believe they live the richest lives possible.

I'm not saying we should all be monks, but this idea that work is the only way to live a fulfilling life is very narrow, and very much cultural.
yeah, but a lot of them are slackers
What's interesting is that the transliteration of symbols is not even remotely uniform in icao 9303. There are multiple recommended transliterations of some characters, and it definitely goes only in one direction: national script -> MRZ transliteration. It is not possible to go the other direction.

Take a look at the spec if you are interested: https://www.icao.int/publications/documents/9303_p3_cons_en....
The transliteration tables start on page 24 and are scattered throughout the document.

I can’t even tell what the suggestion is for the article.

Panic? Assume my money is going to become worthless? Buy some fancy fund that manages risk better (but, historically, does worse than the s&p)? Seems like this is yet another chicken little prediction that is going to be found to be inaccurate years later.

The author doesn’t really give any evidence that this time is different. And, given that everyone cries this time is different, I’m extremely skeptical.
That’s exactly the parallel I was considering. And it’s eerily close too.

The USA military is about 1.4M people which works out to about .4% of the population. Thats pretty close to the .2% in the study!
I go for a 50 min walk every night with my gf, virtually always the same route, and it's never boring quite the opposite. It's the only time where you have nothing else to do than focus on the essentials, no screen, no music, no food/snacks. Before I met her I did the same alone and it wasn't boring either. If it's boring it probably mean you're addicted to overstimulation

Currently, we don't have validations implemented.

We've spiked it in the past, and had some nice designs that attached validation rules semantically to the scalar types (which are very sharable), and models (which are more system-specific).

The early designs felt nice (albeit early), but the deal we were working on didn't eventuate, so we didn't push it through.

I think Validations become really interesting in both evaluation flows (ie., ingesting in a pipeline or through a mutating API), as well as quality scoring for data-at-rest.

I'm excited to explore these in more detail, given a use-case.

> Post-quantum cryptography has not yet had the amount of public analysis and scrutiny that classical cryptography has enjoyed. For this reason, we will use post-quantum cryptography in combination with classical cryptography. The post-quantum component will use lattice-based algorithms, as they offer good security and performance. For digital signatures, we have selected CRYSTALS-Dilithium in combination with Ed25519. For encryption, we chose CRYSTALS-Kyber in combination with X25519. Using a combination of classical and post-quantum algorithms offers the best of both worlds: Your data will be safe unless the attacker breaks both classical and quantum cryptography.

Notable that this seems to me (as a non-expert) like the exact same path that the Signal team is using. CRYSTALS-Kyber is the same algorithm selected by Signal for their own implementation of post-quantum.

If you have as much time as you want and never get tired then sure, do it all. Most people seem to experience tradeoffs between these things but I'm sure some don't.

For the second thing, you could make that argument. Are you? Because I'm old, and our fathers mostly considered "good parenting" to be work as hard as possible outside the home to aspire to wealth and model hard work. And I don't know any of my generational peers that aim to emulate them in this, because it makes you a distant and uninvolved member of your family.

So if you're going to make this argument for yourself you certainly can. I've experienced first hand what "setting a good example" through labor does for your children.
Exploiting yourself unnecessarily isn’t virtuous.

The alternative is to stop being blindly loyal and to change jobs if you feel you will be treated better somewhere else. I've never been convinced that loyalty is such a moral virtue in the first place. It just seems like one of those virtues that disproportionally benefits rulers and exploiters.
I personally see it as my mission to keep them on the line as long as humanly possible, it might just save someones life - my personal best was 90 minutes. That was a few years ago now, and they certainly seem more sophisticated these days.
Yes, but.

Attributing every great outcome to "talent and sweat" is dangerous in safety critical domains. Often it's (at least partly) luck, and missing that distinction (combined with a lot of human biases) can make a team confuse "being lucky" with "being good". The problem with luck is it tends to eventually run out.

There's no right answer, but do you value a short-term or long-term monetary payoff more?

If you're content playing a long-game and taking a bet that Neuralink is successful as a company, it might be better for a career to spend some time with a well-known company like that and then cashing in with your next role rather than finding a little better pay at an unknown hospital right now and not having any notable career accomplishments for the rest of your career.

Uncomfortable is harder to fix than it looks.

Chairs in our bus stops are designed to be uncomfy to make sure people don't sleep in them, especially not when laying down.

There were too many drunk people sleeping in them, making things messy. The bus company gave up and decided low-comfort chairs were better than puke-filled chairs.

Actually, all cause is the right metric. Let's say the vaccine stops 100% of malaria but causes severe heart attacks. You'd probably want to know that. I didn't review _this_ study, so I won't comment on the quality of analysis, but what you want to know about a vaccine is "effectivity" does it stop contraction and spread of the illness and "safety" does it not cause any other problems that in aggregate are worse than the illness (all cause mortality is one metric here).
Very true. And if you were raised in a family that believed in hard, honest work (with the implication that there would be a reward someday), it can take many, many years to discover that one's own personal satisfaction is the only real reward from dedication and toil on behalf of a company.
In a court, the court determines if something is perjury and what the repercussions will be. That's not the case with congress. With congress, the congressional committee doesn't decide if perjury happened. It has to ask the Department of Justice to investigate and, if it did, the DoJ has the option of bringing charges in an actual court of law.

It may seem like a small difference, but it's pretty large in practice.
You're asking the wrong person. "Greedy" is quoted from the grandparent comment, not the parent you're responding to.
Uber was trying the "there can be only one" approach of operating at a loss to squeeze out competitors on both sides of their business model. The pandemic and other factors disrupted that plan. So now they are scrambling for profit while not having being configured for it.
One way to describe Africa's development in this era is that they're economically 100 years behind the rich world, but catching up 3 years per year.

In that environment, you'd expect child mortality to go down year by year, regardless of this vaccine.

Maybe the study corrects for that, but the complete absence of details in this report isn't promising.
Sounds a lot like "if water is good why is coke bad ?"

Just look at the average desk worker posture and it'll tell you more than half of the story already, it's bad for your back, it's bad for your neck, it's bad for you hips, it's bad for breathing, it's bad for blood circulation, it's bad for lymph circulation, &c.

Then there is the fact that you cannot survive without sleep, if you were to spend another 8 hours in bed you'd likely develop bed sores and all kind of nasty things
There is some survivorship bias. Loyal workers get worked harder, but disloyal and lazy ones either leave or get fired, leaving the loyal ones to be selected more.
The latter.

For short lived workflows, you may not care about updating; just let it finish.

For longer jobs, you want some way to replace the current logic and either resume from where the job left off, or restart it idempotently. Especially if your workflow spans months or years (which at least some of these systems are designed for).

The challenge is these systens shine when you manage the job state in-memory, but they don't "store" the data in a traditional sense. They just replay your logic and replay the original I/O results. So if your logic changes, the replay breaks and your state goes bye-bye.

(I think of it similarly to React's "rules of hooks": you can't do anything that makes the function call key APIs in a different order than previous executions)

So you either accept that you can never update an in-flight job (in a meaningful way, at least), or you track job state in some other system and throw away the distinguishing feature of these systems.

I'm curious how people normally handle this. When I worked with Azure Durable Functions I couldn't find a way around this.

The employee side of it is to become the "de facto" owner of something important, and making the calculated move to "big salary raise or I'm leaving". Obviously you need to be backed up with another offer and be prepared to leave.
