> The OP doesn't state not to review code anymore.

Nor am I suggesting he does. I'm saying that merging incorrect code to master might increase velocity if two conditions are fulfilled 1) that people are helped by building on top of the code merged to master and 2) that an incorrect master does NOT create issues that slows down the velocity more than 1) helps.

And that second bit is the case, for example, if the master branch is used to create data (document files, for example) that would be useless or require manual salvaging, if the master branch is broken.

The problem is, cybersecurity insurances nowadays have that limitation as mandatory for coverage... and for good reason.

So far pretty much every prediction hasn’t panned out. We keep hearing all the bad stuff over and over and over. Taxing us left right and center. And the reality is all this fear mongering is just hurting us more than any warming that is occurring.

Scientists have stated they don’t get funding if they say anything other than we are fucked. When scientists have stated otherwise they are classified as deniers.

This isn’t conspiracy website shit. Unless mainstream media is now considered conspiracy now.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303480304579578...

Let’s not forget that they keep telling us about data from 1800 when 1) we haven’t been collecting data that long. And 2) what data was collected used different methods then than today and we can more accurately collect data now that we have to assume was accurate then as we don’t have good data to use. We are talking 2f degrees since 1800 which could be margin of error on the method collected then.

But again when anyone questions this stuff. Denier.

You’re doing it right now.

When models leave data out it makes it look like they are cherry picking. When questioned on somewhere like HN the “experts” try to claim the data is not relevant. Yet another study will include that data and exclude other data and you end up going around in circles. But again. Question anything. Denier.

Science never used to be like that.
I can find bad examples of how things work in basically every department I chose if I look long enough. Are there IT-Managed things that border on insanity? Oh yes. Are these a good excuse to build a shadow IT? No, they are not.

Don't get me wrong: I'm not bothered at all when a couple analysts get together and hack away at their own little tools in VBA. Kudos to them for getting into the spirit of things, and maybe they will understand my day to day better as a result.

What does bother me, is when these analysts suddenly expect my systems architecture to somehow accomodate their private projects in whatever capacity. When I ask for documentation (there isn't any), an architectural overview (nope), or even access to the repo for that abomination (access to a what now?).

Because, why shouldn't their spreadsheet inject data into my processing pipeline? Why shouldn't I write a controller that accomodates whatever tidbits of REST they bothered to watch half a youtube video about? When suddenly I get asked this in a meeting: "What do you mean we need authentication? Why does IT always have to make things so complicated?!?".

So yeah, please, people should absolutely build their VBA, lowcode or whatever tools. I do the same thing, the only difference is, I call them shellscripts, and they live in git repo.

But same as I don't let my CLI tools lose on the production server, I won't let it happen with things that have never even been through one code review.
AI based weather model outperforms traditional deterministic systems
Imagine reading this comment thread a few years back. Just getting an answer to this question at all from a generic bot would be considered science-fiction and now we're dismissing it based on technicalities.
"Coping Mechanisms: Over the years, adults develop various coping strategies that can mask ADHD symptoms. For instance, someone might excessively rely on calendars, to-do lists, or alarms to compensate for forgetfulness."

You're goddamn right I do
Roasting meat in a microwave oven (without water in a covered glass vessel) is a valid cooking method, which provides tasty meat in a perfectly reproducible way and in a shorter time than traditional cooking.

Nevertheless, for good results it must be done at a low power (I use 440 W in a 1000 W oven) and a long time, e.g. 20 to 25 minutes for chicken, about 30 minutes for turkey and more for pork/beef. For organs, e.g. livers, hearts, gizzards, a somewhat shorter time is enough.

When done for the first time, experiments are needed to determine the optimal power and time, which depend on the type of oven and on the amount and kind of meat. Once determined, the results will always be the same and the meat is very tasty, because it loses nothing, except a part of the water content (roasted meat has typically 2/3 of the weight of raw meat, due to water loss).

The meat should be microwave-roasted after removing the bones, and preferably after being cut in bite-sized pieces, which will avoid too violent steam expulsions if the power level is set too high.
If the first time you run the production build is after launch, and you only do it because a customer told you it doesn’t work, you just learned a valuable lesson the hard way.
There’s no ethic cleansing unless you follow the propaganda that Palestine has existed for 1000s of years and Israel stole all the land and has been attacking everyone around it.
It’s weird to me though that VBA apparently doesn’t count as “high level”.
No, it's okay. I think Copyright should be aligned on patents, and 15 years seems good enough.

URL is a central concept in web browsing. Hiding it from users goes against the main usability principle that the user should understand what's going on.

One does not need a technical background to understand URLs.

Browser hiding URLs is like an OS hiding file system structure from users, because files and directories are "too technioal" for them.
It’s a reasonable thing to try for someone who doesn’t know how to cook a steak and may have been expressly forbidden from using the stove.

Plus he was twelve, definitely in the age range where such errors are the expected product of experimentation in an unfamiliar world.
If I were diagramming it, I think I’d still label “accidentally” as an adverb, but would note that the corresponding verb has been omitted. It’s the written equivalent of hearing “Oh my, there’s a gigantic <RADIO STATIC> blocking the road.” The unknown word blocked by the radio static is still the noun, we just don’t know what it is.
Spend any time working in advertising and you'll fall down the "content marketing" rabbit hole. There's a lot of money in selling Pepsi its own logo or making sure people can't forget about a brand but there's even more money in content marketing and that's entirely a grift.

Content marketing is like a void onion. It's layers upon layers of nothing and it all generates "passive income". Most of it exists to sell to other people who are doing content marketing as a get-rich-quick-scheme. Why bother doing a grift yourself if you can grift by selling your grift to other people and let them worry about how to make it actually work. The actual product and topic doesn't even matter. Is it investment advice? Mental health? Self-improvement? Weight loss? "Passive income"? Offer vacuous goodies like "free ebooks" to get people hooked and then continue selling and upselling them on the promise that if they just pay for one more Mastermind session, webinar, virtual retreat or coaching package, they'll figure it out eventually.

Is there a polite, constructive way to tell him no word has been put into the "original author's mouth"?

What he's reading there is just the following sentence in the book, separated with a comma...

>
TextBlob does a pretty good job at the translation: "C'est une vérité universellement reconnue, qu'un homme célibataire en possession d'une bonne fortune doit avoir besoin d'une femme!".

It can be argued that TextBlob's translation is far more exact, in fact, than the 1932 French translation of the book by V. Leconte and Ch. Pressoir:

"C'est une vérité universelle qu'un célibataire pourvu d'une belle fortune doit avoir envie de se marier, et, si peu que l'on sache de son sentiment à cet egard, lorsqu'il arrive dans une nouvelle résidence, cette idée est si bien fixée dans l'esprit de ses voisins qu'ils le considèrent sur-le-champ comme la propriété légitime de l'une ou l'autre de leurs filles."

In this case, the translation informed by ML does a better job than the human translator who is unnecessarily putting words in the original author's mouth for 'clarity'.

The title is faked, and artificial intelligence as a term does not even appear in the whole paper. The model is a GNN, which, in itself, is not "AI".
Not a technicality. It's like inventing a proper head of government that wasn't there.

Also, knowing German chancellors was always easy, so that fact that a machine falls behind any normal dictionary or the German Chancellor's website is poor form.

It's like a calculator getting basic addition wrong. I don't want a future full of poorly performing machines.
>the left currently dominates all aspects of culture, academia, work, and society

What a weird statement. Dominates all of culture? Work? Society??!

The extremes on both ends do definitely dominate in the public debate which is frustrating (and, I think, dangerous). It makes it seem like the average person is much less reasonable than I believe they are.
I swear that every time I read an article by somebody who claims they've been diagnosed with ADHD, it is the same formula: "when I was a child...", "I didn't know what it was", ..., "I was finally diagnosed with ADHD", then finally "I have super powers no one else has so I will use them to my advantage".

I would love to see an ADHD version of the horoscope/personality tests administered by Stagner and Forer. I predict the effect would be the same. This study seems to be on this track: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/07067437221082...
Very impressive essay, I have this feeling long time ago, but didn't interpret well.

I think the best way is to make people realize some of their sensor, mindset or feeling are set by others, especially those silence area we can't even mention. Like a mobile phone's default settings, we have to realize that some things are just set up to be this way and can be presented in other ways.
Wait, this can actually have consequences! Think about all the SEO articles about ChatGPT hallucinating… At some point it will start to “think” that it should hallucinate and give nonsensical answers often, as it is ChatGPT.
Apple implementing RCS messages should allow anyone to build a messaging app that will be able to integrate directly with iMessage.

It is letting the competition dictate it by leveling the playing field for a behemoth like Apple with every single other messaging app developer/company.

Large tech companies vertically integrating by using their walled gardens as a weapon is literally the point of the EU regulations. For EU regulators, its not taking a side in apple vs google. Its taking a side in mega corporations vs any other company or person

Ehhhh- Mastering the Art of French Cooking though opens up with "This is a book for the servantless American cook who can be unconcerned on occasion with budgets, waistlines, time schedules, children’s meals, the parent-chauffeur-den-mother syndrome, or anything else which might interfere with the enjoyment of producing something wonderful to eat."

Today we tent to view Mastering the Art of the French Cooking as fussy (and her forward does acknowledge that ones schedule must be free), in no small part due to works like Julie & Julia, but the opening lines in the forward are counter to that (Key phrase being "servantless American.")- on the contrary _not_ fussy but demonstrative of good foundational technique. Pepin's La Methode and La Technique are comparable, if not more formal, though of course very much aimed at a different audience. Both chefs published more casual, everyday recipes later in their career.
That is a compressed dump you are looking at. The uncompressed data is much larger. Link graphs in general can grow quite big. Also, not every laptop has 32 GB RAM.

Your rant is rather incoherent so it's hard to be sure what you're saying, but it seems to me that you're missing several different points.

> the poor Intel Duo Core CPU

Do you mean an Intel Core Duo? You both mangled the chip model number and didn't give the Dell model number at all, so I can't check.

If so, there's point #1. A Core Duo is a 32-bit chip. It maxes out at 3-and-a-bit GB of RAM. That's not much use in 2023 and it can't run common apps such as Google Chrome, which is 64-bit only.

Point #2 is not that these elderly Thinkpads still work, it's that they are still useful. I don't know what Dell you have but I own two Thinkpad T420 machines, as mentioned in this post. Both are still in use. Here is why:

They were high-end devices when new. That means no cheap crappy hardware like "Pentium Dual Core" or Celeron chips, but full-spec Core 2 Duos. They are 64-bit bit CPUs, so my i5 T420 has 8GB of RAM and dual-boots FreeBSD 13.2 and ChromeOS Flex. My i7 T420 has 16GB of RAM and USB3, and it runs the latest Win10, the latest Fedora, and the latest Ubuntu, in multiboot.

Point #3: they are expandable with cheap bits.

My i7 one has a discrete GPU. That helps: they're still quite quick. Mine can run 2 VMs side-by-side and remain useful, or 1 usefully-big VM and a few bloated Electron apps on the host and still remain responsive.

That's why people go on about them. They are still useful in a way a 12YO Core Duo can never be.

They also have great expansion, so my machines both have dual SSDs, as well as optical drives, as well as lots of ports. DisplayPort, which can drive HDMI (while HDMI can't drive DisplayPort) and SVGA. Mine have $5 USB3 ExpressCards in them, because why not? You can't have too many USB ports, or too fast.

Point #4: great keyboards, and 3 physical mouse buttons.

I am a writer. I demand a good keyboard. I am a heavy Linux user. I need 3 mouse buttons. I don't care much about trackpads and I don't want gestures, but I need that middle mouse button.

Now none of those might matter to you, but they do matter to some of us and that's why we use them and keep going on about them.

Just accept that other people like things you don't and move on.

> or even access to the repo for that abomination (access to a what now?).

Did someone give the analysts access to a repo?

Because I'd hazard ~80% of the companies I've seen don't allow "non-development" users access to the corporate version control system.
An awful lot of people here arguing over "WHERE IS THE LINE?" when the article clearly states:

When creators upload content, we will have new options for them to select to indicate that it contains realistic altered or synthetic material. For example, this could be an AI-generated video that realistically depicts an event that never happened, or content showing someone saying or doing something they didn’t actually do.
Mmm doesn't localise well either.

E.g. French has Juin and Juillet, both "jui" start.

Better to just use yyyy-mm-dd everywhere. I see so many bugs from people still using US date format in 2023.
What Thinkpad?

The newer, the more plasticky. Post the ??20 series the keyboards get progressively worse and worse.
That's a good thing, because that final edit is a discrete event. At some point this ongoing process will end and the edits will stop. The people engaged in the process will likely forget or not be available to add a final timestamp, but an aging edit timestamp will automatically indicate this moment in time.
You mean like most shell scripts? VBA is no different from Bash here.
I'd be shocked - given the incentives - if it hasn't already happened to a great extent. Many of the types of people Google DeepMind hires are also the types of people hedge funds hire.

'David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived' Review: Harry Potter's Stuntman Perseveres
One thing that is important to note is that to many this seems like an overnight success, but this guy has been cooking ChatGPT since 2017? I don't think at many points this seemed like it'd be this successful. It looked just like what google was going, some moonshot in some lab, that might in a few decades be a building block for real AI. And this was never cheap. Something to be said for making capital available for R&D and how some countries are doomed to lag due to aversion to this, governments and private parties alike.
I'd be happy to put up a repo for them, if they ask. Problem is, they often don't.

And not to make too big a deal out of it, but using github, gitlab or anything along these lines, is mostly free, not exactly rocket science, and private repos exist.
That's verbing a noun, but I don't think that's what is going on here. I think the title is trying to verb an adverb.

If the "correct" sentence is "I accidentally created a scheme", then I think it would be "accidentallied". In excising the verb, shouldn't one carry its tense over to the adverb?

If the "correct" sentence is "I created an accidental scheme", then it would be "acidentalled".

But verbing the adjective doesn't have the same rhythm as verbing the adverb, in this case. And rhythm is the most important rule of English. The indefinite article needs to fall on a low note, and the adverb form is flexible enough to end on a high note to give a lilting affirmation, whereas the adjective form is not.

We decided that the water/electricity utility doesn't get to control how you use the amount you consume.

Modern IT is more like if your water utility had final say over which faucet you installed and how you used it.
For me the word remnant confuses me.

I interpreted it as "leftovers of a significant amount" not a "significant amount of leftovers", meaning that it was used in high quantities, but only remnants (in non significant amounts) were found.

If you think someone is misreading your comments, my advice is to either shrug and accept that not everyone understands or try to explain yourself more clearly. Paranoia is a bad mindset. And energy policy is, fundamentally, about economics. We've regulated a lot of industries out of existence for no particular reason and, while that annoys me, the damage is slight compared to the huge societal costs of the crazy energy policies the Western powers have been adopting.

1980s standards of safety aren't really an acceptable option in the modern era, and you are the person laying down 1980s and 1990s reports as something to be referred to. That isn't a very good strategy IMO, we should be aiming for higher standards than they could achieve then. We have much better tech and science now. The issue is that the regulations have gone waaay overboard, we're pushing huge costs onto the nuclear industry for next to no benefit to anyone.

> And you advocated for regulation to be loosened to oversight.

I still am, the amount of oversight the nuclear industry has been subjected to is silly.

However, and this is a point I thought was going to be obvious to everyone, 1980s USSR standards are also silly. Not as silly as the modern standard, in principle, but nevertheless I think we can do better.

I'm thinking that society can maybe be talked down off the ledge and accept airline-industry levels of safety. Then we can have cheap power and historically outstanding safety and an order of magnitude less environmental damage than coal, and cheaper power prices. It'd be a great equilibrium. Regressing to the 80s is not really something I'm tabling as an option here. If the plan was to do that then the anti-nuclear people would have some respectable points.
I find it hard to understand how you could argue it's productive when it is literally about exploiting other people's inexperience, naivety or honesty (lacking a "poker face") in order to take their money from them. It doesn't produce anything. At best you could argue it's a form of entertainment but it's not even good at that except as an observer sport.

Gambling, for most people, is ultimately a form of fraud. It's built on the narrative that you can get rich quick. Gambling is for the winners. The losers are just paying for it. The narrative hinges entirely on numbing the mark's rationality and making them not think about the odds, getting them to keep throwing money at you until they go bankrupt.

Rolling an orange on the other hand is something you can do entirely by yourself without harming anyone except the people you inconvenience if you do it somewhere public. Neither activity is productive but at least rolling an orange with your nose isn't actively anti-social unless you're a dick about it.
