If an appropriate dual problem is found this could be possible.

I'm baffled why Mert Pilanci's work in this area hasn't received more attention. His proofs of a zero duality gap for neural networks are impressive.
Do you feel like doing the content is worth the ROI? I would basically be starting from zero and from what I've heard, it's a lot of effort to go from 0 -> 1.

Yeah I meant scalar replacement!

I can easily see this happening though.

Artist starts making assets, asks "What's my budget for each model" and engineering/managers reply with "Do whatever you want, we'll automatically create different LODs later" and the day gold master is being done, the LOD system still isn't in place so the call gets made to just ship what they have, otherwise publisher deadline will be missed.

GPT4 can absolutely decode base64. Early jailbreaks were to base64 a python-based jailbreak to get it to output whatever you wanted and later OpenAI added a patch to filter base64 outputs to follow their rules.
Even on the much lower end ESP8266 it was usual to use a web browser to let the user configure the application etc. It was fast enough, for one user at a time...
To be clear, we don't have a simple rice cooker. We have one of these terrible UX rice cookers with a shit ton of buttons and settings.

But we ignore all that and just do the thumb-level of water and hit the button that says cook (and also says like three other things too, but whatever). We ignore the other buttons.
Transportation charging at night will be a drop in the ocean, something like 10-15% of our total energy needs, much of it happening during the day time. If half of vehicles are charging for a few hours of the night night, that's a couple percent of night time demand coming from transportation. A couple percent, maybe maxing at 3-5%, will be far less of a worry than the double digits required by home heating and electricity or industry or agricultural needs.
I guess it's all relative. Memory is significantly cheaper if you get it anywhere but on loan from a cloud provider.
Good point, the system would work just as well if it was something like:

But it wouldn't cause nearly as much confusion or decimal place issues relating to improper automation.
It seems strange to interrogate why someone thanked someone else, doesn't it? Are you trying to start a fight with them over a simple acknowledgement that they agree?
Not quite the same thing, but patients who lose weight as a symptom of lung cancer are more prone to toxicity from treatment and have shorter survival times overall.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2409471/\

And to be clear, the authors of the OP study absolutely do propose a mechanism by which the time window and reprogramming of circadian rhythms in tumor cells lead to tumor suppression. It's right there in the 'results' summary and elaborated in much greater detail in 'discussion' section:

>After TRF intervention, only timeless (TIM) gene among five lung cancer-associated clock genes was found to consistently align rhythm of tumor cells to that of tumor tissues. Further, we demonstrated that the anti-tumor effect upon TRF was partially mediated by the rhythmic downregulation of the TIM and the subsequent activation of autophagy. Combining TRF with TIM inhibition further enhanced the anti-tumor effect, comparable to treatment efficacy of chemotherapy in xenograft model.
indirectly. i'd say the largest single early complain about simcity 2013 was the small maximum city size you quote, which people attributed to perf-related restrictions
It's good to see a report like this. I hope that ReactOS can reach production ready status, even if it's just the basics, before the end of support for Windows 10 in October 2025 (or later if this gets postponed). Once Windows 10 goes out of support, I fear that there may be a spike in e-waste due to many older computers not officially supported by Windows 11 primarily due to its CPU requirements, even though the official ISO images don't stop Windows 11 from being installed onto these older systems at all. But then they can miss out on critical stuff like security updates that may or may not be worse than switching to a Linux distro, for example.
Helping to rent a room in apartment of a friend in Germany. Normally a room costs from 600€ in Munich. And it’s cheap. Decade ago same room was going for 300€. Small apartment goes for 1000+€. And for both room for 600€ or 1000€ apartment you get at least 50 applicants. That sounds crazy to me. I would go and protest too, luckily I moved away.

In the limit: might as well tune out everything and skip life.

The other limit: all things must be consumed exactly as delivered, and we must consume everything we can. (I'll disregard selection / filtering algorithm.)

The healthy medium is to consume, analyze, and synthesize how it makes sense for your particular style of traversing the information topology. Climb the gradients you want. Go as deep or as shallow as makes sense to you.

If you can derive value from skipping video played at double speed, good. If you want to or need to watch the whole thing twice, also good. You do what you need to do. No one prescription fits the bill for all people and all circumstances.

Sadly, the world does need one.

There are plenty of systems where you might have a $5 million piece of hardware, tied into a $1 million of revenue per day process, that's all driven by a very specific machine with a very specific version of Windows and very specific peripherals.

Being able to replace them as close to identically as possible is a huge business. That's why there are weird service contracts that promise like-for-like replacements, and why a random scrap 20Gb HDD might be worth $2 for the magnets inside, or $300 if it's some specific Dell/IBM/HP FRU that can be fitted into an unreplacable system.

The software is becoming a challenge there. Until recently, you could just pay Microsoft progressively more and more money to at least get a checkoff that you were getting support for compliance-related things. But now, you really need to find something else if you don't want PCI or HIPPA people threatening to nuke your facility from orbit. ReactOS is the closest thing we have to a lifeline there.

An excellent point for most cases that ultimately cannot be satisfied for others. For instance, this most recent HTTP/2 Rapid Reset vulnerability, could it be solved without shared PCAPs?
The point was probably that e.g. YouTube or Facebook have strict rules against nudity in all countries, because US American culture has a strong aversion against nudity. (Perhaps due to the influence of Puritan settlers on the early US, or something like that.)

Intuitively, "fixing life-or-death disasterss is more visible and gets better rewards than preventing them" doesn't seem like it should be a unique problem of software engineering. Any engineering or technical discipline, executed as part of a large company, ought to have the potential for this particular dysfunction.

So I wonder: do the same dynamics appear in any non-software companies? If not, why not? If yes, have they already found a way to solve them?

Ultimately, a rice cooker is a small luxury, but:

- A rice cooker frees up a burner on the stove, which is useful for those with small apartments or other situations where there are few or no burners available.

- Rice cookers are very consistent and virtually foolproof, even the cheap ones. Add water and rice, set it, and forget it. I can say I’ve over or under cooked rice on the stove at least a few times, but not once in a rice cooker.

- Decent rice cookers make far better rice than I’ve personally ever made on the stove (and I have cooked rice on the stove plenty).

- More expensive models keep rice hot (at a food-safe temperature) for hours, so you can prep well in advance of a meal. I put rice on to cook and can leave the house for hours without worrying about it, and have rice for the whole day in one batch, if needed.

- Rice cookers also cook other things and some handle different kinds of rice. Brown rice needs to be cooked significantly differently than white rice, for example.
Unit tests (which have to mock dependencies) have a very bad signal-to-noise ratio. Most of their breakages are caused by forgetting to reflect the latest implementation details in the test code (like mocking new dependencies).

I write unit tests only if the logic is completely encapsulated by the "unit". The less you need to mock, the higher value the tests bring. That's one of the reasons I prefer to work on monoliths, it's much easier to test almost-end-to-end.
Depends on scale. During much of the pandemic, I rented a house from an elderly lady who owned one other rental property. She only asked for very modest rent increases as rents and property values skyrocketed because I always paid on time and fixed small things myself, which made me a low hassle tenant. Had I been renting from an institutional investor with thousands of properties, I'm betting my rent would have gone up the maximum they thought they could extract.
How do we establish the parameters for defining 'utility' in this context? I posit that if an individual finds value in Bitcoin (or Beanie babies) for legal purposes, it serves as an indication of its 'meaningful and lawful utility.' I, for one, belong to this category of users. It leads me to suspect that your interpretation of 'utility' might be deviating from the conventional understanding. Could you please elaborate? Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems that what you really mean is that you don't personally have a use for Bitcoin in your own life?

I understand the point you're making, but the statement that

> they would have been unlikely to work on nuclear weapons development, and millions more would have likely perished in a land invasion of Japan

despite being constantly repeated, is not reflected by contemporary documents and later historical analysis of decision making among Pentagon and White House officials.

The threat of an impending land invasion was not a consideration at the time when it was decided to attack Japanese civilian centres with nuclear weapons. The primary factor in the decision for their use had far more to do with the risk of Stalin joining the fight on the eastern front and thus securing a claim for territory following the inevitable axis surrender, as well as a desire for US power projection from the demonstration of an atomic weapon in War. The primary delay in Japanese surrender was the question of the fate of Empreror Hirohito, who the US ended up protecting anyway.

The state provides Public Transport (trams, buses, etc.), it should also provide Public Housing - after all, it’s a Human Right.

Furthermore, if Human Rights do not appeal to your Political Economic leanings, nevertheless I’m sure you can agree the state should provide a firefighting and police service. Police officers and firefighters need to live close to where they work. And, should be able to afford public transport, therefore: Public Housing.
This is hardly the place for this kind of discussion but I can't help but comment on this.

Countless species are already going extinct all the time, both known to us and completely unknown to us, and both "naturally" and from human impact, and no one really cares.

Here's a rare case of a species that there is very good reason to deliberately get rid of, and suddenly people care and object, a lot!?

Of course there's justifiable skepticism and a long, sorry history of unintended consequences of introducing, eradicating or in any way modifying a species or its behavior, but seriously, read up on it, this is not one of those species, pretty much everyone who knows anything about it (including otherwise very environmentally minded people who as a rule would never, ever agree with deliberately eradicating anything) agrees it can be eradicated with no meaningful impact on the ecosystem. (and yes, that includes even the armchair criticism from cynical misanthropes who consider human deaths resulting from this species a good thing "because humans are bad for the environment" - while these mosquitoes do cause a lot of human deaths, the environmental "benefit" of those deaths are completely meaningless in the grand scheme of things)

Hi there, I'm a multifaceted developer as I enjoy learning new tech/patterns with close to 2 years of experience. My main expertise is backend(.NET and Flask) but I've also tinkered with the following areas: web scraping(scrapy, selenium, playwright), AI(scikit-learn, keras), desktop app development(WinForms) and frontend with vanilla js.

Looking for a junior/mid role in one of the following:

- backend engineer

- backend focused fullstack engineer

- backend/machine learning engineer

Would like to broaden my limited knowledge on Cloud technologies and DevOps if I can. I'd also be okay with long term contract work or part time too.
( full disclosure: I despise Peterson, and think he is an arrogant[1], dishonest grifter )

Except it wasn't court-ordered media training. The College of Psychologists of Ontario, of which Peterson is a member, ordered him to take a course on not to be such an {expletive} when speaking publicly as a 'Psychologist'. Peterson filed for Judicial review and

> "Three Ontario Divisional Court judges unanimously dismissed Peterson's application, ruling that the college's decision falls within its mandate to regulate the profession in the public interest and does not affect his freedom of expression.

"The order is not disciplinary and does not prevent Dr. Peterson from expressing himself on controversial topics; it has a minimal impact on his right to freedom of expression,"

...

Peterson had said his statements were not made in his capacity as a clinical psychologist, but instead were "off-duty opinions" — an argument the court rejected.

"Dr. Peterson sees himself functioning as a clinical psychologist 'in the broad public space' where he claims to be helping 'millions of people,"' Schabas wrote.

"Peterson cannot have it both ways: he cannot speak as a member of a regulated profession without taking responsibility for the risk of harm that flows from him speaking in that trusted capacity." [0]

[1] "I think I've done demonstrably more than any psychologist has ever produced to increase the prestige and trust of the practice of psychology around the world," Peterson said."
I believe conditions like this cause impact to people's livelihood by putting them out of action.

Caring for the sick also has economic costs.
I agree. The person to whom I was replying seemed to be implying that interviews can provide good signal.
> ReactOS is original Open Source code, developed outside of Redmond.

Plus code from Wine, the same project that is used for running Windows programs on Linux distros and macOS, and the basis for Valve's Proton tuned for running Windows only games on these operating systems.

We can say that ReactOS even benefits from some Proton development, although indirectly.
They are valuable in different ways.

Integration tests are better at accurately reflecting the real software. There is less of a leap of faith between "this test passes" and "the software actually works".

Unit tests are better at telling you exactly what failed. There is less of a research project between "this test fails" and "this code right here needs to be fixed".

I don't really love anxiety-inducing leaps of faith or time-consuming research projects, but I don't know of one form of testing that avoids both.
>I guess if many people block sponsor content, this kind of vids will die.

Then so be it. I miss when people uploaded videos for the sake of it, not to make money by way of exploiting the users' cognitive vulnerabilities. I remember the days when I could search for a video on how to replace my dirt bike's carburetor and it was less than two minutes, didn't include any ads, and was straight to the point, all first person POV; you wouldn't even see the guy's face. Nobody was trying to get rich off it. It was all about sharing it with other people.
Horses for courses. In an environment where a compiler has nodded approvingly to tight type constraints that limit mistakes to a rather high level, I'm very much in the same boat. Bugs that get through those checks are often wrong assumptions about the environment outside of the unit, and chances are those wrong assumptions would also go into the unit test. If that happened, the test gives nothing but false confidence, which makes its value a net negative even before you start considering the effort that went into writing.

But at the other end of the spectrum (say, php), things are very different. You want that code exercised, just to be confident that it will actually do something, anything. Even if the question wether those things it does are right or wrong is left to higher level tests.
CSS is better than it was, but it's still a mountain of hacks on top of hacks, needing to conform to an HTML that was and is still largely designed for blog-like documents, not multi-screen, responsive app UIs.

Something as common as a combobox* (a textbox + dropdown, ideally with autocomplete) is still a pain to implement, requiring understanding positioning, anchoring, z-indices, scrollbars (and how they're different across operating systems), media queries, word-wrapping, box sizing, etc. And that's just the CSS side.

On the HTML and JS sides there's dynamic loading from the server (and what to do with clientside state in the meantime, loading indicators, etc.), accessibility, focus locking, blah blah.

Meanwhile, like 15 years ago that was a drag-and-drop WinForms control in Visual Studio.

It's "99% smooth sailing" if you work in it day and in day out, maybe, and are aware of all its quirks. But easy to learn it is not...

--------------

* If you want to see some of the complexity, take a look at a published combobox component like MUI's: https://mui.com/material-ui/react-autocomplete/#combo-box

Basic usage just requires a few lines of React, but the options and different behaviors are pretty complex, both in JS and in CSS. You can of course write something like this from scratch, it's just a lot more work than, say, a blog post.
I’m also loving the game. There are a few issues, and performance could be better, but all in all it feels like a really nice entry with solid bones that should lead towards most of these issues being resolved with far less effort than—say—Cyberpunk.
You add more properties by forcing sale of those owned for investment purposes to the state and operating them on a cost-recovery basis. Simultaneously, abolish most forms of zoning and have the state engage in home building directly.

Landlordism, as Adam Smith himself identified, is a destructive, parasitic drag on economies that should be minimized at all costs. Otherwise, you end up with what we have now, Capital owners chasing after unproductive returns by limiting construction, bribing politicians, and generally making everyone else poorer and more miserable.

>Did you ever try windows? There are loads of weird ui things going on there

I mean, "Windows does it badly too" isn't exactly a very pro-Linux point.
I think people disagree and argue about this so much because each preference is true in that developer's context and environment. Everyone who voices a general opinion should indicate what kind of development they do.

How could it possibly be that unit tests are "good" or "bad" in general, for all software development?
Hey, ya gotta have logs /s
You may be right of course, but I believe the reason for the slow drop is mostly because most of the battery factories currently under production are not online yet and EV makers are still grabbing all the batteries they can get. VW just started building one of their planned 6 last year.

Once the transition to EV's is mostly done and car sales fall to normal levels there will be an immense surplus of battery production capacity.

My understanding is also that LFP batteries have basically eliminated the raw materials bottleneck, which was another development that few analysts (or anyone else) were able to predict just a few years ago.
