Yes. The methodology in the original D&K is quite shoddy, and vulnerable to e.g. good old regression to the mean, and the interpretations are too strong. This is sadly very common in psychology (and many other fields I'd guess) and even researchers don't care so much if the story is juicy enough.

The pop version of the DK effect seems to be something like a 4-3-2-1 ranking, which is obviously not supported by the data.

Racket has a DSL for describing programming language semantics called "PLT Redex", tutorial here: https://docs.racket-lang.org/redex/tutorial.html

It has its own renderer, so you can take your code and render it for insertion into a paper. It uses Felleisen-style reduction syntax, which is useful because it exposes the current continuation of a program explicitly.
Actually I'm a bit disappointed that it can't format 128 bit integers or byte arrays. That would allow formatting UUIDs. I'm not a huge fan of public facing integer IDs. There is always the risk of leaking some kind of critical information with ascending IDs.

So I will probably keep Base64URL formatting my UUIDs to make them shorter for URLs, QR Codes and so on.

Quick example:

20b30b32-d421-4cfb-bdbc-9a4e0475abea
=>
MguzICHU-0y9vJpOBHWr6g

It's important to keep in mind that there are different ways to convert an UUID to a byte array (little/big endian, order of segments, ..)
I was at an IBM subsidiary for awhile. My boss's technical question consisted of, "Do you know sql?"

I think this is an absolutely critical point. From my own tutoring experience insight with troubled students usually comes only _after_ engaging many "bad" questions in a row. Usually I find that students struggle because they do not understand, or are not aware of, some fundamental fact about the topic they are studying. Once you answer the last "dumb" question, they quickly learn all the other stuff they didn't know, because they have a sure footing.

In the future I expect AI tutors to ask more questions of students to quickly identify where their knowledge gaps are (so they won't even have to formulate the "bad" questions themselves).
That show butchered the original stories, though. And for some reason they picked some Dick's earliest and least interesting 1950s pulp-era stories, rather than the later, more mature. Autofac is the only classic that stands out, and the adaptation is both atrocious and unfaithful to the story.

Why not "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale", "A Little Something For Us Tempunauts", "Second Variety", "Impostor", "Faith of Our Fathers", "I Hope I Shall Arrive Soon", "Colony" or "Foster, You're Dead"? I wonder if it's because someone owns the rights? Some of these have already been adapted, though never faithfully.

In fact, a faithful adaptation of a PKD story or novel has never been made. Which is odd, for two reasons. One, PKD wrote quite filmable stories, with excellent dialogue and well-paced plots that should not pose a problem for anyone trying to adapt them to screen.

And secondly, why would you change anything? You adapt PKD because of the idea and how brilliantly it unfolds to its conclusion; if you replace that with your own spin, it's no longer PKD. Blade Runner very much lacks the feel of a PKD story, for example (no absurdist humour, no existential angst, no color; everything is just drab and dreary, which is a property that plagued some of his mainstream writings but very few of his SF works; if BR feels like anything it's Flow My Tears the Policeman Said, which is a sad and bleak book).

It may be less popular for new projects, but every single project/product/service that's using Oracle DB is gonna continue to use, and hire, Oracle DBA for the foreseeable future.

Sure, if you're learning SQL or a technology to market yourself, Oracle DB might not be the best time investment. However, if you're already an expert in that, you shouldn't have trouble finding a role somewhere.
I have to defend Logan just a little here. The new Airport station is a lot less convenient than the old one, but the Blue Line isn't really that useful unless you live in East Boston anyway (or on the Orange Line with a transfer at State St). The Silver Line to South Station is at least as good as the bus to new Airport. Once you're there, you're on the Red Line and by extension a couple stops from the Orange or Green lines.

I think it was a worthwhile trade off.

My primary searches would be for something like Reporting Developer, Reporting Analyst, Report Writer, Business Analyst (for a very established business where most of the responsibilities are actually getting stuff out of a database).

I would be looking at small to medium businesses that have been around for awhile, many of them have "legacy" databases that nobody knows how to query, and someone conversant in SQL would have no big problem breaking down.

My garden walls are of blue lias which is a bit like slate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Lias) it lends itself to flat 1-6" thick blocks that lay into quite neat horizontal rows whilst still being disjoint and allowing water to flow out. Weeds do grow in the cracks and the woody ones at least should be removed.

As you say a thicker wall will be more stable. Water and soil pressure will be most intense at the base, so make the base thicker and thin out as you move up. A slight deviation from vertical will allow for the soil expanding. For example my walls were rebuilt after a dry spell so a few degrees off vertical allows for the clay to absorb water and expand.
Isn't the thing that makes UUIDs UUIDs that they have enough bits that they are guaranteed to be unique without any synchronization?

I don't think you could reduce the amount of random bits (I guess there are some non-random parts in standard UUIDs but not a significant amount) while preserving that property unless you add back some other form of synchronization to ensure that there aren't collisions which seems like it would defeat the purpose.
I don't think these nets are sophisticated enough to understand complexities of what humans call punishment / reward. Therefore punishment = -reward, but this is not the case for humans. If punishment for example is prison, is reward making people "even more free" for example giving them a flying car or something :-). If money is a reward (or punishment a fine), why are people not optimizing every last cent.
Hi! Model creator here. I happen to be a cultural historian and that's a main use case that I see. It's not complicated to learn about past events but having a general idea of the culture of the time (and its alieness from our perspective) is way harder.

Also, why the hostility? I've never met a Canadian that expressed a sense superiority about not being part of the USA. I've met plenty who are proud of their national identity, and there's nothing wrong with that. It's quite admirable too, in my opinion. Nation-building isn't easy.

No. The cookie banners have nothing to do with cookies per se, they are a consent / information popup required if companies want to store and use personal data beyond what's required to serve you with the website content (GDPR) or they want to store non-essential identifiers on your device (ePrivacy directive).

In other words, you are seeing these because marketing departments need BS metrics that measure nothing and are based on some personal data. The internet can happily exist without them as proven by Github[1].

> Again: the overwhelming threat model is here is "two individuals that already know each other want to communicate privately." That's what Signal facilitates, and it does so pretty well given the purity compromises that need to happen to do that for non-technical users. They're not worried about leaking phone numbers, because they're already shared.

Well there is no justification for that threat model beyond "our leader said so". Especially when they expressly fight state level censorship and interference but something as simple as someone shoulder surfing you defeats it. Threat models are for security professionals not regular people. Regular people don't model threat or assess securitu risk properly. They don't know encryption is useless if you don't authenticate. And signal's refusal to be independntly usable outside of smartphones given how much law enforcement and spies love to abuse mobile phone infrastructure leaves me to be very suspicious of their intent. Making phone numbers opt-out just makes you less discoverable at best. They have 50 million dollars and various projects no one asked for yet this is too difficult and complex? You still have't given me a reason to accept that beyond "trust me, i know".

> Finally: there's a good chance you being downvoted here because (1) these comments are indistinguishable from FUD, and (2) you're making claims (and now talking about examples) without citing them.

Disagreeing with you is FUD? What claims did i make that need citing? Please challenge me then?

For anyone who reada this thread, do you really want to use Signal given the hostility a person would get for questioning their terribly questionable choices?

> know that the FBI can only retrieve minimal metadata from Signal[1], and various foreign intelligence services have more luck deploying malware to phones[2] than they do actually breaking anything about Signal's design. Nation state adversaries don't have trouble finding peoples' phone numbers.

Do you freaking realize that you are making my point for me here? The problem is being able to connect signal messages with phone numbers. Of course they know everyone's phone numbers! But reporter A talking to source B is all they need to know because they can get access to either's phones! There are very few cases where a real life adversary cannot at some point access one party's phone over time.

If the only protection is against man in the middle attacks then signal is by far the weakest app in that category because wire, briar,etc.. i can just use them on any device.

I had advocated for signal for many years and have gotten burned by it more than any other messaging app. The worst security tools are the ones that lead you to trust them more than you should, the more cultishly supportive their supporters are the more wary of them you should be.

For the target audience of signal, imessage on an iphone is a better choice. For the real users of signals that need higher security wire and briar are better. Signal compromises on too much and then claims too much security guarantees.

Trade is generally not zero-sum, but trade implies transaction between relative-peers. Nation states. Corporations. Groups that have similar amounts of power (Or that can lean on friends.)

Many transactions that happen in a capitalist society are very much not transactions between peers. And those can absolutely be, and often are zero-sum, or negative-sum.
That sounds wrong in so many ways. Do you live in China or something where this is expected?

I've worked at about 10 or so companies in 3 countries and it was never expected for the juniors to ever "bring documents from previous workplaces as knowledge and not tell about it".

Bringing your "experience" means only the experience and problem solving skills that are in your head as we're in the knowledge work business. Bringing documents to regurgitate just means IP theft, not knowledge work and is no guarantee to make you a productive employee, and no company would ever touch you for ever doing that.

Agreed, with the caveat that a tangled commit history can be overwhelming to a beginner. Probably the only time I really want to recommend a Git GUI is for visualizing the commit graph. I think GitUp does a really good job of making it navigable and understandable, but is unfortunately Mac-only: https://gitup.co/

If you're interested, here's my version of this:

[alias]

## Pretty log graph

log-oneline = log --decorate=short --date='format-local:%a %F %H:%M' --pretty='tformat:%C(auto)%h%C(reset) %C(auto,blue)[%ad]%C(reset)%C(auto)%d%C(reset) %aN: %s'
log-graph = log-oneline --topo-order --graph
reflog-oneline = log-oneline --walk-reflogs

lg = log-graph
lgl = log-graph --branches --tags
lgr = log-graph --branches --tags --remotes
lga = log-graph --all

For anyone who doesn't want to dig around in the git-log(1) man page, the relevant format placeholder are:

%C(col) Change color to "col"
%h Abbreviated commit hash
%ad Author date (formatted as per --date)
%d Ref name (like with --decorate)
%aN Author name
%s "Subject" (first line of commit message)

The difference with the usual `--decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit` options is that my version includes the date and author name, which can be really helpful when navigating a long commit history and/or a project with multiple contributors. Without it, I often found myself wondering "who did that, and when did they do it?". The --topo-order option also helps here.

Outside of the coffee houses, I’m not sure any of those are a third space. A third spade is somewhere people can allow their real selves to show. It’s also commonly identified as a place where you can have revolutions grow, or have the dissenting come together.

If the primary purpose of a space is a singular activity that overwhelms discussion of other things, then it’s not a third space.

Sporting associations can be third spaces, but that isn’t the case if people take the sport seriously.

FancyZones is a good alternative to tiling on windows. It combines best of both worlds, imo, is very easy to configure, and there’s apparently no tool like that for linux.

Also I find clicking on an icon faster than typing, especially when your mind is too busy to recall the exact name but the muscle memory knows where it is, or when the interface of a program assumes using mouse anyway. (Although I have to admit that most of my “desktop icons” are actually start menu tiles.)

So while I understand and agree that different workflows exist and you have yours, I still don’t get why you should be disappointed by someone else using another one or having desktop/icons at all.

Do you believe that ChatGPT is self aware or something? I'm not sure how you could believe these things otherwise, ChatGPT is fed a lot of standard responses to questions to make it look more self aware, just like the "As a language model I can't ..." responses that stops it from answering certain questions.

I've recently deleted my Google Photos as well and found the interface extremely unintuitive. Turns out you can multi-select with Shift, though there are no UX affordances for that.

FWIW, I've never had an Android phone but apparently long ago (9+ years) I've had some photos up on a product called Picasa. When the product died, I just assumed the photos will be deleted but instead they got transferred into this Google Photos thing. Only found out when I did a "request my data" for my gmail and got back like 40Gbs of archives.
So is google singlehandedly choosing which technologies get implemented and deprecated? What if my website depends on third party cookies to function? Aren't they an IETF standard and so I can expect them to be supported?
