Going to the public markets and saying "we're selling $100M worth of stock to fill a gap in our revenue" is basically suicide. This is essentially what happened to SVB earlier this year; its different because they're a bank and there's bank runs to consider and the FDIC and etc, but they said "we need liquidity so we're selling a bunch of investments" and everyone went like "huh? are y'all ok? screw that we're out" and they died a week later.

SVB literally would have been fine, if you remove market psychology from the picture. But, that's a fallacy that everyone from You to highly experienced banking professionals make; ignoring market psychology.

People have this idea of stock having value; but it only has market value. Its a similar fallacy as believing that your investments are protected because you have stop-losses set; stock only has value because people believe it has value, and if corporate leadership takes action that would cause a lot of people to stop believing your stock has value, that stock doesn't have value anymore. Its not a house; its fairy dust.

I'm no fan of homework, but under the status quo there's no other time for reinforcement learning besides after school.

Using myself as an example-- being terminally-obstinate I simply didn't do the homework and accepted the grade hits. The real damage came from how quickly I got left behind in classes, since the only things covered in class were new topics that built on the old ones...from elementary school all the way through college.

This ties into:

> No wonder kids are stressed.

I think the curriculum is the problem. The above was my own experience decades ago, but I see what my own kids are learning now, and in which grades, and cannot fathom functioning at that level at that age. It's too much, too fast, with no room for failure and for no discernible purpose.
Or… you view it as just another perspective just like that from a human coworker where most ideas are throwaway but you take what you like and leave the rest. Understandably we all want AI to be perfect but what we have today is much more human.
Exactly what I was trying to say. Thank you.

Still works best if you know what you are doing and can give very detailed instructions, but GPT-4 is vastly more capable than Bing for these tasks.
Same. It is kinda sad it becoming a more stupid tool by the day, losing its value
Not at all. I bet no one thought through that requirement. Does it have an automatic logout after n minutes of inactivity? Does it ask if you're a robot then?

Also: 2FA doesn't mean you aren't a robot. They can have TOTPs and SMS, too.
Do you really need a co-founder if you feel very strongly about your idea and the business you're trying to build? You have to sell your idea. You have to know what problem you're solving, and for whom. Ultimately the buck stops with you since it is your idea and you finding a co-founder is only part of the execution. You can most definitely get by without one, as long as you are executing to your maximum capability.

Don't feel like you have to give up valuable equity to someone who isn't a good fit, or someone who doesn't share the same passion as you about the BUSINESS. That's what is important. Are they going to be there with you 2/3/5+ years?

Anyone can code or be a product manager or throw some designs together. Can they actually contribute to the entire business though? Are they going to help you sell? Will they help you putting out fires on another domain area?

If all you need is someone who can code or some other piece of work, you can just hire a contractor to build your system. You can hire them as an employee later, if all they are is excellent in one area of operations.

Maybe I'm wrong here, but in 2023 with all the tools and technology and access to experts, I don't think you need to worry or get so hung up about not having a co-founder. It is more than just a checkbox because XYZ said I need to have a co-founder. A good co-founder is always rare to find, rather be the best founder for the problem you're trying to solve and things will fall into place naturally.
Alcohol is likely the most damaging of all drugs available, as it's so widely used.

This.

It doesn't matter how much value you generate for The Company. If you don't have strong labour (eg. via unions) then there's absolutely no reason for a company to compensate employees fairly. Companies are not only happy, but DEFAULT to raising prices AND lowering wages. Max profit.
Closer to 9 miles (15km). That's plenty (even though it doesn't sound like much), considering what kind of eruption this would be and how the fault lines lie.
“In the United States, the right of publicity is a state law–based right, as opposed to federal, and recognition of the right can vary from state to state.”

So, the USA-specific answer is depends on the specific US state(s) whose law relevant to the action in controversy.

There are countries with national rights in this area, but the USA is (and your source highlights this) not one of them.

I’m amazed (and a bit jealous) of the amount of customization possible in the US. I understand the need of regulation but… it’s way less fun. More secure though, so, I’m conflicted.

In my country changing the color of the vehicle will trigger a need to recertify the vehicle. For the fucking color.
Look 'em right in the eye before you cross.

Let's use two of the examples I gave above. How would you go about modifying the silicon to support new features in the boot rom, and how do you get around the pigeonhole principle when that silicon vendor doesn't ship enough bits of OTP memory to store multiple keys? M-x butterfly doesn't quite get there, but maybe there's another Emacs command I could use?
I make an important modification to this pattern. Whenever visibility is good, I act assertively when I cross streets, whenever my right of way is not in question. I leave just enough time to not be hit by the vehicle, but I don't hesitate nearly as much as other people. I want the driver to be uncomfortable, I want them to know they're doing something wrong, if they choose to go for it. Very often this is the difference between them deciding to cut me off and actually braking and yielding the right of way.

If pedestrians don't take what's theirs (in a safe manner), there are just far too many drivers who will ignore them. Fixing that will take decades, best case, but I want to walk around my neighbourhood as a first-class citizen now. So I do.

Disclaimer: I am tall, visible, only do this in good visibility, and live in Canada where driver behaviour is a bit better. If the situation is borderline, I never tempt fate, rather I throw my hands up in the air and make it obvious that yes, I hereby assert that this driver is being an asshole.

Anyone got a link to an official report detailing what happened? The article is kinda light on details, but I assume this is a major mishap that can only happen if multiple things go wrong simultaneously? Everything m they do up there is a precisely choreographed dance so it would be interesting to read a technical report on that.
Private space is basically SpaceX launches for governments and space agencies, the "private" stuff comes from in-house demand for Starlink. In case of EVs, he had to sue to get the title of founder at Tesla. And for OpenAI, wasn't he just an early investor? Or do we assume he wrote ChatGPT code himself now?

The rule of thumb in university is 1 hr of home study for every hour of class. So 2 hrs of homework for a 12th grader in seven classes doesn't seem unreasonable. The following year as a college freshman, they are going to have ~3 hrs a day of homework.
Agreed, it'll open up a whole new distribution channel for mobile games outside of the app stores, which is really exciting for developers!

People said the same thing about Avatar 2. I think the criticism in the media comes from "film purists" who are bothered that the smoothness catches their eye in a certain way, and instead of trying to get used to it over time will proclaim that 24 fps is some magical golden ratio of cinema perfection.
This company certainly knows what it's doing! Such long term vision!

I love the concept of Notebook.ai, thanks for sharing that.

When I was writing my first fantasy novel I was messing around with Notion templates (almost a local wiki in a sense) just to organize weapons, factions/governments, religions, etc. It didn't work as well as I expected and I had been wishing something like your service existed the whole time. Well done!

For time being, I'll put together a little blog post about Notebook.ai to let the community know about it. I know there's writers out there that are looking for this exact product. I appreciate the comment!
Roe is less common, but not unusual. Most memorably, "Roe" in Roe v. Wade was a pseudonym for the plaintiff who was called "Jane Roe" to protect her privacy. I don't know the mechanism, but I assume the judge in such cases has the real identity of a pseudonymous plaintiff to make sure a real party has brought the case.
Isn't that a matter of degree? RC4 leaks a lot. "Acceptable" ciphers leak so little, it's still not feasible to break the full version. But apparently this scales with increasing or reducing rounds. So it seems unlikely it ever goes to zero. It just gets near enough to zero, that there are no feasible attacks for some length of message.
And why would this article be arbitrarily flagged? I mean, it opens debate, regardless of how anyone may not like the idea of debate over this "closed" subject, and it comes from a very reputable source. The Washington Post has its political biases sure, but it's hardly infowars-level bottom barrel reporting.

When learning a language for example, I think it was definitely useful to study the new words outside of lessons. The kind of repetition needed does not fit well in the regular lessons schedule.

Look, if you want to turn the United States into a utopia like Singapore, I'm all for it, but it's going to take a bit more than just making drugs illegal.

Perhaps, we could start with nationalizing ~80% of the country's housing stock, requiring permits for which neighbourhood you are allowed to live in, having ethnic quotas for each region to enforce multiculturalism and harmony and common prosperity...

Stable housing, and a stable, harmonous society, with many of your pressing concerns back-stopped by a benevolent autocracy are probably the reason Singapore has low rates of drug use.

It's weird how the US right salivates over a very small, bloody subset of Singapore's social policies... While turning its nose at the ones that actually make it a successful state. It's almost like the cruelty, not the outcomes, are the point...
Given that this describes a binary deliverable, what about this is anti-open source? Even their examples point to https://spdx.org/licenses/LGPL-2.0.html.
Big trees very close to a house? Not the best idea, you're always a storm away from serious damage to the house. Tree roots will also eventually damage any kind of surface around the house or house foundation. And trees with shallow roots are really probe to get knocked over in heavy wind.
You choose different silicon? You get a different vendor? You build your own boards and chips?

For a vehicle that costs $100k+ it shouldn't be hard to double or triple the budget for onboard compute considering it is vital to the operation of the entire vehicle.
Freakonomics, 'sellers will charge the maximum amount they can'.
I know what that is... it's the point of busy work everywhere. To sap someone's (in this case, a child's) will, make them compliant, and exhaust them.

You know how when the police stop someone, haven't arrested them yet... they're taught to "control" the situation. To be able to, at a moment's notice, tackle anyone who is there, force them to do as they are told?

Same thing with teachers, only they're mostly not allowed to twist arms behind backs.
It's important to point out that the framing of drug addiction as a weakness of will has an important function - to unburden people from guilt and a responsibility to others.

To be in the position of recognizing a problem and then being relatively powerless to enact change is a powerful motivator in disavowing the problem or responsibility to fix it. It's an adaptive response to avoiding mental discomfort.

And it works - people who don't feel responsibility to others avoid an entire class of mental discomforts. Taking away that adaptive mechanism exposes folks to a level of pain they likely aren't equipped to handle - a reason they developed it in the first place.
Decriminalization is a cowardly half-measure that is doomed to fail. It doesn't resolve any of the actual issues that cause harm. Drugs are still impure, contaminated and hard to dose. They still must be purchased via an often-violent black market. It does absolutely nothing to prevent drugs being sold to minors. It doesn't create connections between addicts and services that can help them. It generates no revenue to fund those desperately-needed services.

Legalization with regulation is the one way to manage addictive substances in a free society. The rest of us are waiting around for you all to stop clutching your pearls so we can do what needs to be done. In the meantime, addicts will keep dying and law enforcement will keep ruining lives.

And black markets will keep getting richer.
My point wasn't about morality, it was about loyalty. The one thing diplomats should be is loyal to their country, to represent their country's interest above their own. Clearly, no sane person could expect someone who just back-stabbed the legitimate government in order to win an election to do that.

Other than that I fully appreciate that morality has no place in international relations.

If I wanted to switch to a GL-only UI (and discard QT altogether), how would I add event listeners?

Tapping into a telecommunications company's office cameras
I like the idea of the inverted classroom (lectures are watched at home, and "homework" is done in class where you can get help from the teacher). It can fail in practice though because 1/3 (or more) of the class doesn't watch the lectures (or has it running while doing something else).

Of course when I was a kid, 1/3 (or more) of the class would copy homework off of other kids, so plus ça change.
Youtube completely ruins that timing by popping a "watch this video next" overlay almost completely covering George.
“Struck” is the general past participle of “strike", “stricken” is a past participle available specifically for the sense of removing from a list (but the general form “struck” is also correct and often used for that sense, too.)

If coding goes away as a profession or as a craft, it would be a fitting end to a story arc that entailed the end of so many other people's jobs. We've had a good, high-flying run for fifty years, not really thinking too hard about what progress for us meant for other people. I'm not convinced yet that it will, but I'm also not sure how many people outside the profession would weep for the loss.
so what? for one thing, children can legally play with (though not necessarily "own") guns, bows, model rockets, etc in most states. those all seem as dangerous, if not more so, than lawn darts.

I don't think children should be going anywhere near such things without adult supervision, but completely banning sale seems like a wildly disproportionate response.

Your job as a driver is to see me. I'll go ahead and start crossing with enough time to stop if you keep ignoring me, and one of two things will happen: either you'll see me and brake, or you won't see me and I will stop, but it'll be clear to all involved that what just happened is wrong. This way, you know you're being an inattentive dick by not seeing me in time, and I'll stay safe and alive.

These kinds of handy one-liners and behaviour patterns are a big part of the problem. I shouldn't have to make eye contact with you, relying on you being semi-awake and not having illegal levels of windshield tint. Screw that, pay attention.
Big picture, it’s kind of funny seeing a community assume it has new insights into human nature and burn down the metaphorical Chesterton fence only to learn the hard way.

“I pride myself on being a bit cynical, but obviously I was very naive.”
That's where ROI comes in.

Should I have spent my full income for 3 months on an IDE, vs spending an extra 2 hours with the free tools?

It's not a hypothetical, that was the reality of my life in 2004. I had a lot of extra time, couldn't use it to make money and buying "enterprise grade" tooling wouldn't produce any extra value.

The ROI of an professional grade tool would have been - "you get to sleep extra two hours and have no food for 3 months"
I think its funny because we have error correction with retransmission on the link then quality drop if the buffer is empty, in order packets with retransmission, etc. just to have motion smoothing (or "buffering..." waiting screens)...

It would be interesting to "see" the packets on screen arriving and decoded with no error correction or buffering (maybe with reconstruction of missing squares...) , like an analog kind of signal : no latency, full available bandwidth, no waiting (but sometimes... less than ideal quality).

The jarring part in Avatar 2 is that for some completely inexplicable reason it had sections with low fps. I noticed every single one of them instantly and it was very off putting.

And while 48 fps is a major improvement from the prehistoric 24 (apparently it was chosen because of the power grid a hundred years ago??), it's still a far cry from actually smooth motion at 144 and above fps.

If rendering the whole movie at this frame rate is too difficult, it would be quite interesting to explore exporting the additional buffers (velocity, depth, etc) that allow DLSS 3 frame generation to work near perfectly in games. Can cameras even capture these?
Ah, yes sorry I am talking about tax credits.
I think your view of current state of higher ed is distorted by the media you consume, and what stories make click-worthy headlines. Students challenge their professors all the time, probably more than they did 20 years ago. Just because certain news outlets and social media make sure you hear about a handful of students who had a bad time with one professor, often because they themselves were picking a fight rather than trying to have a fair conversation. But those stories have always happened. And likewise there's plenty of healthy discourse in college classrooms that you don't hear about or experience, since you aren't actually in college.

"On the spectrum" is both a soft term of art and very often a euphemism for either never seeking professional diagnosis or not being able to convince professionals that you warrant a diagnosis.

The difference between the population of those who have received a diagnosis and those who are on the spectrum is night and day, and it's often the line which separates whether you'll have any reasonable chance at life. The OP suspects his coworker has received such a diagnosis.

So when I hear OP say that his coworker may have a diagnosis, that absolutely changes the picture in my head. It's up to you to decide whether professional medical diagnosis is a signal to you.

Doesn't matter how much value you generate for The Company. They're perfectly happy to take it from you for free if they can get away with it. Without bargaining power and leverage, either through unions or scarcity of labour, there's no natural limit to how little a company will pay it's employees.

Used to be that knowledge workers were scarce, now everyone is getting degrees. The scarcity of the engineering labour pool that meant people could get good jobs without a union is gone. If you want a good job, get a union.
