The survivorship bias effect is so strong, there doesn’t seem to be any point in admiring hedge fund managers.

We have millions of people professionally throwing dice in the stock market. A few of them will be very successful and become billionaires. But there’s not much benefit to society, and nothing interesting to emulate. The best thing might be to ignore these people who seem to endlessly crave attention and respect for their purported achievements.

Even with access to online chat or even in person, I prefer to batch my questions together. It's better to interrupt someone once than several times throughout the day.

Whenever I get a new issue to work on, I go through it, plan what I'm going to do, dig in my head for potential issues/conflicts, create a sometimes giant list of questions, break it apart into who will most likely be able to answer what question, then start the online chat conversations.

I just got a newer cpu today I just wanted to write something out as I wasn’t expecting this kind of response.

There is no problem with the drive on dos, windows or os/2 1.2 so it’s something about it being an early 2.0 beta and probably an older 386 cpu.
It still seems like a bad idea to me. Anyone under the current market can make a bid for an off-market property, but it's not their property. They cannot force an owner to sell. Tbey can only entice them with lucrative offers.

Under the proposal, lucrative offers can still lure buyers into selling, but the security of private property is removed. You have to live under constant threat of a whale, e.g. Blackrock, swooping in and offering marginally above (market + e), forcing you to sell.

But you still need somewhere to live. And now you have (market + e) dollars, but the market just got redefined by Blackrock and you cannot afford to buy your neighbors house because it is now priced at (market2 + e) where market < market2.

Blackrock does this sequentially and can manage to legally steal private property from entire cities, just because they had more starting capital.
If it's not recent, it needs a year in square brackets.
Fascinating. I also like the idea of such a compendium.

Wouldn't the binary lambda calculus (BLC) encoding also suffice as a (relatively) compact map to these functions? To convert the encoding to a bigint, you'd just need to prepend a 1 and convert the binary string to decimal as normal.

That article is quite a mess isn't it? Seems they found more of a problem with the Chicago PD than ShotSpotter.

These are all fair points.

My sense is that Americans are equal parts traumatized by our healthcare system(s) and under-educated about how it works in other countries. We hear about how the rest of the developed world has had socialized medicine for 80 years and just assume that means you can go to any doctor, for any reason, anywhere, and get unlimited care with no cost sharing.

In reality it doesn't work like that anywhere. As you described well, certainly Tricare doesn't work like that, and neither does VA, Medicaid, Medicare, the NY Essential Plan, the UK NHS, or the Canadian provincial health systems. Every system has cost controls in place and almost all are facing fiscal pressures to implement more. Care is rationed with deductibles, coinsurance, waiting lists, limits on covered services, hybrid public-private managed care plans that implement closed networks, and so on. Not to mention the fact that when other countries' governments artificially limit what can be charged for certain drugs, equipment, and services, they're often doing so under a de-facto subsidy by the US government and the US healthcare industry. This is because so many of these innovations are made by US companies; the cost of care is meant to recoup the development expense. The less these companies can earn worldwide to recoup expenses, the more that cost is passed on to US rate-payers and to the US government (read: US taxpayers) in the form of grants and other transfers of money from government.

"Refactoring" is the phenomenon. Speaking in terms of compression and decompression is not quite exactly the thing, although it can be perfectly cromulent to compress the text or even the AST of a given chunk of code.

Factoring is math.

Consider:

45 * 7 + 60 * 8

We can factor out 15 (which in the case of multiplication is actually called a "factor"):

15 * (3 * 7 + 4 * 8)

And hopefully this expression has better properties (it's either more efficient or shorter or both). There are more involved examples in the WP entry:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

Anyway, the point is that when you consider programs as expressions in a symbolic language you can factor out operations (and still know mathematically that your expressions retain their meaning) to look for more mechanically desirable forms.

Typically this looks like "Don't Repeat Yourself" or "Semantic Compression" but it's important to understand that that's the outer form of the technique, its meat and bones are factoring in the mathematical sense.

(I think this point bugs me because DRY is itself a repetition of the concept of refactoring.)

It be well to adopt languages that make it easier to do this sort of thing (besides factoring the other thing you'd want to make easy is applying and unapplying the Futumura Projections.) Forth, Factor, Joy, and the other "concatinative" languages are particularly good for this, although the Lisp family and ML family are good too.

Check out "Compiling to Categories" http://conal.net/papers/compiling-to-categories/ wherein Haskell is transformed to a Point-Free style and interesting things are done with and to the compiler.

I couldn't help myself, I golfed this expression a little:

15 * (3 * 7 + 4 * 8)

= 15 * 21 * 32

= (10 * 21 + 5 * 21) * 32

= (210 + 5 * 21) << 5

= (210 + 210/2) << 5

= (210 + (210 >> 1) << 5

= (210 + 105) << 5

= 315 << 5
> So, if as a young child I've learnt to behave emotionally in order to participate in society, my emotions are ... not even "not real" but "not mine"? I mean, we can argue realness, but surely I'm still the one having them.

Your emotions aren't purely imitative based on what your parents encouraged. They come from inside you from chemicals diffusing in your brain. Kids aren't blank slates that respond perfectly to training.

> This feels like a "free will" debate, where if we can explain how a decision was made, that deprives the person of their agency. The model being trained to respond emotionally is why it is getting emotional itself.

No, it's just a distinction based on the meaning of "get emotional". I'm saying it wasn't getting emotional. It was responding with emotionally charged text responses, as they were trained into it.
That would be a highly risky bet on Nvidia becoming AWS faster than AWS can become Nvidia.

What they're doing is instead trying to make sure that their GPUs continue to be seen as the best option in the short/medium term (by having them accessible everywhere), and trying to commoditize their complement by giving small cloud providers disproportionate GPU allocations, which they hope will drive customers from the big providers to the smaller ones that a) aren't trying to build their own ML hardware, b) will have less negotiating leverage with Nvidia in the long term.

This is very true. The company that I am at, not going to mention name but just going to say its FAANG, buys data from this company and uses it to allow for better tracking and graph building when we receive experian cookies. The USA does not care about its peoples privacy even though it constantly says that it does lol. If they cracked down on the privacy laws I feel that bank accounts will get affected since in the top 500 of stocks big tech sits on top.
And the tankie quick with the response "It wasn't real communism!"
doubtful. Imagine if instead of everyone owning a car, we had bullet trains everywhere, and amazing public transport. Almost no traffic, much quicker intra- and inner-city commuting. Ugh. Cars, from an engineering and city planning perspective are super innefficient. Imagine all the housing, stores, and other economically beneficial things we could build instead of the hellscape of parking lots we have today.
Maybe practical is the wrong word, but I think it would be politically untenable if applied to houses. And the only way to make it politically tenable would be to add so many exceptions and loopholes that it wouldn't substantially change anything. Like if you just excepted owner-occupied housing you would already have exempted most of the housing stock in the United States. And if you didn't except all the owner-occupied housing, what is the political message exactly? "We want to kick you out of your house or raise your property taxes so property developers can make more money!" Like I get intellectually why that may be desirable but it strikes me as a tough sell to the voting public.

Tell HN: LinkedIn has one of the worst dark patterns I have seen on the web
I checked my LinkedIn recently, and then hit the Sign Out button (a very common action with decades of precedence about how it should work, one would rightfully expect). Instead of just getting signed out, I was presented with a modal with two options – “Remember and sign out” and simply “Sign out”. The former of course was the primary action with a strong blue background, while the latter was grayed out. There was no more info about what the two actually meant other than a “learn more” link going to a separate help page.

But hold on, you are probably thinking, “remembering” is the exact opposite of logging someone out. And you would be correct, because the default outcome of LinkedIn’s “Sign Out” button keeps your session fully active in the browser, and the next time you visit the site you can directly open your account without any form of authentication.

It is an obvious example of growth hacking gone out of control, and while some PM can now demonstrate higher retention numbers on their way to a promotion, users are stuck with a more convoluted and insecure experience on the site.
Then I think the focus should be on the API. At enterprise level, the API becomes the language, and the frameworks (and even departments to an extent) become the functions/methods.

Business = program

Company = class (business can be a conglomerate)

Department = method

frameworks = implementation details

I used to believe the wage price spiral when I was a teenager. As I grew up and lived through the 2008 financial crisis, I realized that increasing wages were only a fraction of the problem compared to the monstrous amounts of wet ink money being piped into investment firms and banks.

Now we are seeing monopolistic practices driving prices of basic needs to the moon and then blaming it on workers wanting to make enough to barely live? I'm not buying it.

To me the premise "if you haven't left yet" implies "don't go out of your way" and adding that would be redundant. But not everyone sees things the same way so you have to adapt communication individually based on experience.

Business 101 is that all funded companies aim to lose money in order to grow. As long as the growth rate is sufficiently high to justify the losses, this is considered good performance.

However, if that ratio goes the wrong way, then companies need to make internal adjustments to bring it back in line. That could be new or different pricing strategies, but it also usually involves some efficiency improvements and cost cutting.

This is why you have scenarios like this where the company is yes overall losing money each year (as intended), making more revenue than last year (good), and still cutting jobs (because they are still not at the right ratio of revenue growth to losses).

So the executives could be doing a completely fine job bringing the company back to the right path. With only trivial high level information like we have we can't tell. To really know if they are doing well or not you'd need to dive into the finances.
Just a guess: (1) A lot of "me too" pre-training that should really be fine tuning; (2) lot of proprietary models whose weights will never be released (or even used :)).
"The study, which reviewed ShotSpotter deployments for roughly 21 months (from July 1, 2019, through April 14, 2021) using data obtained from the City of Chicago, found that 89% of ShotSpotter’s reports led police to find no gun-related crime and 86% turned up no crime at all, amounting to about 40,000 dead-end ShotSpotter deployments."

If only we took companies out to defend their product at face value we could waste even more time and resources!
> It's a sneaky trap, because you think "I'm making them so empowered!" but you're actually stressing them out and reducing their focus.

As a head's up, the even sneakier trap is that different team members thrive best with different approaches. Some people flail and fret without explicit, procedural direction and others are completely discouraged by it and do feel disempowered.

Rather than taking your lesson as the New Universal Rule, make sure to just add it to your toolbox while trying to learn how to discern who needs what. It's good that you're learning to work better with the people who need more explicit direction, but you're going to burn out managing a team where all of them need that all the time (and if you only practice one approach, you'll eventually get there: filtering down to only have those team members who do thrive by it)

They're different things, though with an extremely simple component they might achieve a relatively similar goal. The downside of `is` is that you can only specify a single element to map to the component. An example of why you'd need to take the slotted approach is if you had something like this:

Admittedly, I wrote this post 3 years ago when I was seeking clarity around disagreement during a wild time. Re-reading it now, in yet another wild time (3 years "wiser" aka having learned how to change a diaper or two), I missed out on compassion for those who are offended. Like you said, if it's important to find a mutual way forward, then it is also worth addressing the fears + emotional lives of those that are offended.

Honestly, if you only are familiar with Python, it’s gonna be pretty tough to learn anything else. I would recommend spending some time learning literally any other language (Ruby is fine). Otherwise, if you just know Python, I think it will hold you back.

For example, ending an if statement with semicolon and then having the if block indented below is just not the normal way to do things. I’m not knocking Python, I use it all the time and it’s great, but it’s not a language you can carry over to learning other languages. It’s like if you know English, it’s pretty easy to learn Spanish. But if you only know Chinese, it’s going to be tougher to learn an “English-ish” language. Hope that makes sense.

Such a misleading headline, "despite... ...reduced losses".

The Unity Corporation is a machine that literally vaporizes money.

They need to find a way to profitability. Reduced losses aren't good enough. Layoffs should not be shocking. This is not an example of a company making tons of $'s and then laying off people.

Anyone who wants to use Unity long term should be supportive of them achieving profitability, because the current position is not sustainable.
Yup, exactly.

If the organization is truly bad, then facts will speak for themselves. IMO heavy editorialization is a sign of a weak argument.
> It's reassuring to see there's room for one that's not as good

It's not necessarily bad to seek inspiration from strong leader archetype when it's applied to business though (even though comparing someone to Putin on social media is like calling them Hitler today, but IRL there's more nuance).

Companies aren't democracies. Even companies with experimental decentralized structures like Valve still ultimately have a single person at the top making important calls.

Of course the overtly-negative stuff like not tolerating dissent is another question. But most people don't seek to draw inspiration from other famous leaders by trying to copy their worst negative traits. You tend to take the cream from the top from multiple people, ditch the negative attributes, and assemble a new whole.

I was interested to see this article explain what `user-avatar` actually did/provided but it never did. Does it just have styles in it? If so why wouldn't I just use css classes?

I also think having a `user-avatar` take a `src` prop makes way more sense than having to add an `img` tag inside it everywhere I use it. In that case what am I saving? What is reusable?

Vue/React/Angular don't seem like they are trying to "replace" HTML (re: "XHTML wanted to replace HTML4, but HTML5 wanted to augment it. HTML5 won.", in the "On The Web, Augmentation Wins in the Long Run" section), they are taking HTML/CSS/JS and building on top of them. If they all used canvas to render instead I might buy that argument but they don't. They absolutely push those technologies to their breaking point but it's nothing short of amazing in my book what you can accomplish with them compared to just HTML/CSS/JS and even "web components".

I was excited when Web Components were first announced but they are incredibly lackluster with no "Batteries included" and feel like they don't really help you build web _apps_ like the frameworks do. Every alternative to the big frameworks (looking at you htmlx) feel like minor syntaxic sugar for jQuery and friends which feels like a massive step backwards and completely the wrong choice for building a web app.

If I was their partner I would read this as, "Oh, they understand that we have two different ways of communication and they are changing their own behavior instead of asking me to change mine so that we both end up saving time/money. This is what it looks like to be a good partner? Pointing out that your partner thinks differently from you is not the same thing as blaming them for something.

Could you explain, in your own words instead of putting the responsibility on me to interpret your meaning, how they are blaming their partner for the interaction?
