As a former BW employee, it's amusing to see an article every day because this guy wrote a book about the fund.

It's definitely a Gell-Mann amnesia type thing[0]. Imagine you're someone who does cross-fit and you read an article about "a group of people being forced to get up at 5 in the morning to rapidly lift heavy things until they are exhausted" - you'd go "wow that sounds horrible" but then "wait, I chose to do this and I love what it does for me."

Bridgewater is a super rigorous place to work where you know exactly where you stand due to direct feedback and practices that hold up failure as a fodder for learning (different than punishment.) That's not for everyone - even I had trouble "metabolizing" it at times but overall it's a great way to operate.

BW is a great place to work for the right people. I loved my few years there and I say this even though I got fired eventually. It has made me much stronger and set me up for ongoing success elsewhere.

> I think there is something to the idea that in the U.S., each subsequent generation is more infantilized, whether by less economic control leading to stunted growth (delayed home ownership, marriage, etc.) or simply by an entire market trying to tickle their childhood nostalgia by creating consumer products and content that appeals to less-than-adult tastes.

"Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret, and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty, I read them openly. When I became a man, I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

You are nowhere near the limit of housing possible in the UK, and are nowhere near the zero-sum point.

Your system is set up to encourage people in council housing to make enough money to be able to buy their home. With your zero-sum argument in mind, you must think this unethical as it takes council housing away from the council.

Your system does not appear to be set up with your ethics in mind, so I hope you can understand why it doesn't seem like something others should be bound by.

> At the undergraduate/introductory level, the only important question is "what awareness do you have of the breadth of this field, and what mastery do you have over the concepts that most agree are its "most fundamental"? You and I both agree that class is a "playground", and any "grade" is in fact meaningless. Rather than assigning As, Bs, Cs etc. as a percentile of subjective completion of arbitrary problem sets, As-Fs should be assigned at the discretion of the instructor as a holistic assessment of oral and written examination, completion of problems and problem sets, participation in the class, and general wisdom.

I'm not completely sure I agree that this is the solution—if we're re-inventing grades anyway, then I'd like to do something more radical than using the same old A–F and just interpreting them differently (although, even if given free rein to do whatever I liked, I don't know what I would do!)—but I definitely agree that grades, and the standard approach to them, are the most pernicious part of "education" (in the sense of the current schooling system). If there were any way to get away with it, then I would be happy to—indeed, I would prefer to—have all evaluative exercises be diagnostic and informative, only for the students' benefit, and to assign no grade at all, or an A for everyone; but this seems incompatible with a modern university structure (and anyway is essentially forbidden by university administration).

You are picking very specific points. Think about the online death, if you misbehave or the google seo index misunderstand something, your business is theoratically dead.

If paypal bans your account by mistake or whatever, they can withold your assets in that account and you have no remedy.

These techs are like feudal lords, they can perform "virtual" violence to cut you off but most of your actions actually builds them wealth (you engage to build community, your views brings them ad money, your content may bring their advertisers sales, you using a particular service will bring them cut of any transaction that you perform, your bid on their platform will make them money despite you having zero control, you selling products on their platform will have to give them a big cut while you also need to spend more for their platform to promote your stuff etc.)

It is a bit complex and needs some deeper thought than simply looking at the surface.

Aren't those all examples of people attempting to go 'above and beyond' in hopes of their 'hard work' resulting in promotion outside of the normal channels?

If you don't want people to trip over themselves engaging in politics, have clear guidelines regarding what gets promotions, when and what the criteria is.

The trouble is - 'leadership' likes not having clear guidelines because then they get to play politics, which is the only thing most of them are any good at.
Since hearing of its release I expected to enjoy this and definitely did. Checks a bunch of boxes: 90s /00s tech history, nostalgia, nerds vs corporates the ongoing struggle, general nostalgia and some great actors (Dennis from It's Always Sunny.., Jay Baruchel, a few other cameos and such), even some Canadian details which add to the fun.
While the movie format doesn't allow for that much character development or to tell more of the behind the scenes, it's still a great tech story and one that fits into a certain era that many would be familiar with. Being familiar with that era of the transition to smartphones, rise of blackberry, and then the sudden shift and leapfrog into touch screens/iPhone etc alongside the rise of mainstream internet, even the change in nerd culture..... I think knowing some of the backstory and what the landscape was really like having lived thru most of it changes one's impressions while watching. A casual viewer might only be wrapped up in the tech 'thriller' type drama at the surface, which is still enjoyable and fun.

Lots of reminders and surely inspiration from Halt And Catch Fire tv series which is a big plus also. It's almost like a continuation of that series as far as timeline and another 'next big thing' in tech being developed. Whether accurate to RIM's story or not, the film/tv series is a nice look at an era and done pretty well, and its accolades are warranted.

Never heard the fan on my M1 Pro in a year of ownership, and temperature is never uncomfortably high.

I'll pay double just to never hear a shitty laptop fan.

> but most of them are not matte

It is a matter of preference. Matte reduces contrast, saturation, and sharpness. I noticed Apple uses a higher quality anti-reflective coating than my other (cheap non-Apple branded) glossy desktop LCD. No distracting reflections on the laptop, but the desktop monitor looks like a mirror sometimes.

Exactly. Two parent household.

Once divorce happens (which will, statistically), it'll be a monoparental or otherwise unstable household.

And the children will, too, suffer. All because of someone's irresponsible (done against hard data) decision to marry.

> Most recently, we began investing in new construction, purpose-built for-rent housing developments that add supply to the market and address the increasing demand we see for this property type. Our focus is on building single-family rental housing that can be managed and operated similar to multifamily properties with dedicated property management, leasing and amenities.

So you aren’t buying existing houses, but you’re buying land to build houses for the sole purpose of renting.

To say you aren’t participating in the market is disingenuous at best. Congrats, you found it’s cheaper to build new than refurbish existing, that doesn’t really change the calculus that you’re trying to eliminate home ownership in the US.

Diversifying manufacturing away from Taiwan makes their position more precarious, not less.
Depends on the workload.

Sometimes things really are compute bound, and sometimes you get a "big" workload that still fits nicely in the GPU's L2. Generative AI is mostly at the far end of "memory bound."

Some ML startups (like Graphcore) seemed to bet on large caches, sparsity and clever preprocessing instead of raw memory bandwidth, but I think their strategy was compromised when model sizes exploded. Even Cerebras was kinda caught off guard when their 40GB pizza was suddenly kind of cramped.
For real, we should start pointing fingers at the root cause.

"For the first time, I do start to see it. Five billion people is almost 600 New Yorks. Almost 600 future New York Cities will need more water. Everyone I pass on my bicycle (including the climate refugees soon to be sequestered next to the old airstrip) will be thirsty. Everyone on the subway, everyone visiting the Empire State Building, everyone in a Broadway audience — thirsty, if they live in the wrong New York City. And repeat that 600 times. Oddly then, I can see the shape of that number. And 5 billion, along with the parts per million and degrees of warming, starts to make sense. To learn this stuff requires new intuitions. The old ones don’t scale.
...
We use the world “unimaginable” a lot, and rarely with optimism. But the world is far, far more imaginable if you see everything as a multiple of home."

Pretty common sense stuff. Personally, I think we need to have a lot more "climate change art".

> 3 other countries have given up their Soviet nuclear weapons: Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine

That's not entirely true. AFAIK, nuclear weapons in these countries were tied to control structures in Moscow and required other resources like maintenance and new materials which were placed in other parts of Soviet Union. So when these countries became independent, they couldn't realistically maintain or even use the weapons without a very significant investment.
> CMO is the best paid by far, and while it's still a big number, it's only $500k in salary - about the same as a senior Netflix engineer.

Same thing in San Diego. They spent billions on this advanced rail system with towering overpasses and platforms, but no turnstile to only allow paying customers. The result is it's a de facto homeless shelter. Immediately after it opened the neighborhood had a surge in vagrants. The only time I rode it I saw a violent assault. It's hard to not believe that the system is set up to increase crime. But if a paying passenger were to defend himself, they have cameras everywhere and would track you down immediately.
That's a rather steep premium in my opinion and you'll also be penalized when you try to sell it, because small quantities, individual appraisal, and additional cost to the buyer if its fate is to be melted down and refined.

In exchange for all that, you get a physical object that can be lost, damaged, or stolen.

Not the issue.

> I really wish textbooks with open licenses would take over and they could be reworked and improved year after year by different people

The issue.

There actually isn't even a good open content license, analogous to the GPL-style licenses. Improving on video means having access to the source files. Ditto for interactive activities. Khan Academy is designed to look as open as possible, while withholding just enough and being just mean enough with license to make any sort of reuse a hopeless endeavor.

With the proper piece in place, video is very possible to iterate upon.

While I agree with her conclusion from seeing the use of critical thinking techniques learned in other fields applied to tech, the application of using a Liberal Arts degree in a tech field will be messy. What would be better if tech related degrees focused on critical thinking skills. Right out of the gate these are useful with proper understanding of original sources. I have seen troubleshooting, data gathering and reporting skills learned in other industries and fields successfully applied to tech when the original sources were considered from the onset.
