And they do not. What they do do is offer a portal where the hotel can look this information up and they very explicitly caution against photographing or doing other stuff to that number other than to enter it into their POS to perform some transaction.
The lack of focus shows up in the results. The models never performs as good as french or spanish on Indian languages. This goes for Google, too.
The problem is you need a full sentence, plus surrounding sentences to properly translate a lot of things (aka context matters).

So no matter what, conversations in your native speech would have to be delayed before translation.
You buying the device which makes proper images in low-light/moving situations despite its small sensor size is your goddamn consent. Buy a shitty cellphone from 2004 if you want shitty photos. Or throw some blur and noise on an iphone photo if that makes you happier.

Yes, but "cost effectiveness" means very different things sometimes. If, for example a hypothetical country were to have huge stores of old equipment to throw at a problem, losing material from the stockpile doesn't actually "cost" the value of producing the stuff new would. Or a hypothetical country with a massive industrial base, fighting a minor proxy war that is politically unpopular at home. Or a hypothetical country, with a tiny population and no native industry, fighting a massive power in a long-lasting guerrilla campaign using material donated from regional powers. Etc, etc.

> Most modern wars are contests of attrition and logistics and bringing down political will to continue to fight

This second point is very well taken; I would extend it even further -- wars have always been contests of attrition, logistics, and political will, but this has been sharply highlighted in all the major conflicts since the turn of the 20th century.
Drupal? I think that would be very slow for that use case (if you want it to be real-time, as opposed to write-rarely-read-often, for a large number of users). I haven't tried to optimize it for that particular case, but out-of-the-box, the Acquia/Pantheon setups aren't really meant for something like that.

You could, however, use Drupal (or any other CMS) to manage the relatively infrequently-changing parts of the website (static assets, the layout, introductory text, landing pages, much of the Javascript, etc.). And then use AJAX to dynamically fetch in the dynamic portions (the user content) from some other API.

I doubt that's the best approach though... probably there are better systems for something like that. Not my specialty though, sorry =/

------

edit: It's also very different if you're operating at reddit scale vs "small website with a few dozen comments a month" scale. If you're not expecting heavy, consistent real-time traffic, it'll probably be OK. Not as fast as it could be with better architecture, but fast enough that users will put up with it. Hell, we all did it for years with phpBB, the Drupal forums, etc.
Nah. People don't want small cars. Don't try to sell them yet another Bolt or Leaf they won't buy while the inventory languishes on some sad dealer lot until the model is discontinued due to anemic sales. Focus on revealed preference, not what consumers say they want.

> Yes, it’s true that the Ford F-150 remained the most popular vehicle sold in America last year. No surprise. It has been for 40 years. In fact, the F-150 was the most popular new and used vehicle sold in America last year. Ford moved 726,004 F-150s out showroom doors in 2021, making it the top seller by over 150,000 units. The Ram 1500 finally moved up from third to second with 569,388 and the Chevrolet Silverado fell to third with 519,774.

I think the difference is between a ground-up or top-down approach. Maybe both are needed. My current stance is that while a top-down approach would work, there's very little chance of it happening. For one, government research funds have largely flat-lined in the last 20 years, and expecting them to take on more costs for managing peer review would likely exacerbate the problem. I also don't see the govt clamoring for additional administrative burden. I don't think replication has to be the only method (although I think it's probably the best). Opening the data to the public can do a lot to suss out bad practices or outright fraud, as we saw with the Ariely situation. The progress has been slow, for sure, but I think there is some. For example, there are now journals that specialize in publishing "non-surprising" results.

I only found my edge case (and dumb implementation mistake, I guess) by forking a "working solution" from someone else, outputting their solution for each line, then diffing that with a similar output from mine. It took me a lot of debugging and troubleshooting.

Once I diffed it against a working output it was clear and solved within minutes.
In theory, yes. But for an extremely bright, driven 18-year-old, which of these career paths looks like the better choice?

(1) Ph.D. in physics (~9 grueling years), then - if you're sufficiently awesome - ~23 years working your way up in industry to become the CEO at ASML at age 50.

(2) B.S. in Computer Science (4-5 years), then get a FAANG or near-equivalent job and start raking in the money.

And if you're extra-ambitions...you might note that every single one of Forbes current 11-youngest-billionaires either inherited the big bucks, or raked it in by founding software/crypto firms. Zero of 'em went anywhere near "uber-difficult engineering technology" stuff, like semiconductor manufacturing.
>Could you elaborate on why this investment is an argument against nuclear?

It is not an argument against nuclear, it is an argument against the claim that nuclear is safe.

If something requires a large staff of skilled workers and very expensive equipment in order to prevent harmful effects, it is of course not safe - wouldn't you agree?

Solar and wind require skilled people too for sure, but not in order to prevent a catastrophe, which was my point here.

> Sometimes, you really are just holding it wrong.

Yup. We all are. This is only a problem because editing raw plaintext code as single source of truth is a bad idea, and we're reaching its limits. "Split or don't split" is one of many holy wars that can't be solved, because they happen on the Pareto frontier. The only way to move forward is to accept that different coding tasks need different representations, and the computer should synthesize them for us, and we generally should not touch the underlying single source of truth, anymore than we manually poke in assembly files generated by our compilers.

We'll see what happens when they actually die. In any case, they're giving their money "away" to "foundations" controlled by billionaire families. The money is still inherited, and these foundations can be seen as tax shelters.
The encapsulation here is exactly the same as you would have in a 6-line function.

And here’s a bonus: the testability is exactly the same in both cases too (unless you’re breaking encapsulation in your tests — another thing that’s awfully common in Rails).

The only difference is the readability. With a 6-line function you have perfectly readable code without jumping around.
Yes, the aristocracy is very much still alive and well in England.

Since America's founding, she's has had a bit more success pushing back against the concept, but our new aristocracy has definitely been grabbing a greater share of societal power as of late.
It's a thing for sure. It would be great in a post-scarcity society where everyone can be funded regardless of what they do, but people are still competitive. For example:

- There are still internal databases (which funding agencies can access), people fight over who gets on which paper there. There are people trying to game that system as much as they would try to game a public metric.

- There's a whole cottage industry of people in these collaborations who simulate the experiment, show that it could do something, and then publish a paper (with a shorter author list) about it. This is so popular that many of these people never get around to doing the real experiment.

Unfortunately I don't think we've broken free of Goodhart's Law so easily.

“Nobody forces you to use it” can justify just about any insane addition to a programming language. Nobody forces you to use any of C++’s zillion and one features, but because they exist you have to contend with their consequences even if you try to limit yourself to modern conventions.

We didn’t need two ways to define methods, one of which parses insanely in order to save a few keystrokes. Adding this didn’t make the language better, it made it more complicated for virtually zero net gain.

That and the way the curves are made by the gov. Many small cars they just can not make because they would not fit the requirements set by the gov. So they classify them as trucks (different set of curves).
> I would generally recommend using the upstream repository packages directly, since they are tested/updated with each major release, and their maintainers are proactive in reaching out to extension maintainers that need to update their extension due to upstream code changes.

Not all extensions have an upstream repository and built debian/yum packages. At Hydra, we test all published in https://github.com/pgxman/buildkit which is available from our registry.

My point was embracing/demanding remote work removes one more barrier to offshoring (or more offshoring), not that working in-office will somehow totally protect you from layoffs or offshoring. Basically, being remote puts you in weaker position in many respects, and people should be clear-eyed about that.

It's a fairy tale to think of companies and ruthlessly rational and efficient. A lot of decisions are really driven by some descision-maker's personal preferences and personal convenience.
LeaseQuery | MLOps Engineer | US remote or Atlanta, GA | Full-time

I'm hiring an experienced (senior, staff, + level) machine learning engineer to lead the tooling, infrastructure, and ops efforts for the ML team at LeaseQuery.

Our team is deploying ML-based services to power features across our suite of products. As we grow the scale and number of our ML-driven features, we are looking to build more robust tools, infrastructure, and ops processes to make our modelers more efficient and our model serving more robust. I'm hoping to find an experienced person that can help us make the best decisions, mentor other team members, and lead the design and implementation of new tools and processes as an IC.

LeaseQuery makes software to help companies comply with new lease accounting regulations, manage their SaaS spend (via our recent acquisition of Stackshine [YC W22]), and more generally handle accounting and spending related to recurring costs. We're based in Atlanta, but support fully remote employees in the US.

One of these days I'll take one for a test drive. Looks so cool, isn't super huge even though it's still big, and doesn't even try to look like a SUV. Although maybe I've been in USA too long and my perception is skewed because Wikipedia calls it a "compact crossover suv".

Maybe battery size is a limiting factor here? The electric mustang looks like an SUV, but has a lower ground clearance (5.1in) than the sports car internal combustion version (5.3in)

This is just the Clean Code style. If you read the book (or an article with examples [0]), you'll see that it advocates exactly this kind of thing: refactoring functions that are "long" and "unreadable" because they have a dozen or two dozen lines into a "clean" and "maintainable" web of tiny functions calling one another. Personally, I find this style very mentally straining because I have to constantly jump around and keep track of a huge function call graph in my head; it's almost as bad as beginner code with a thousand lines per function. The popularity of fads like this in the Ruby community is one of the reasons I'm glad I switched to Python.

I’m a bit surprised the big datacenter / OpenCompute buyers haven’t moved toward a form factor that’s more square. Big, high-power, quiet desktop systems have been using monster fans for many years, and ISTM one could do better with systems that are maybe 4U high but only half width, enabling a proper fan in back. Or maybe even a form factor that’s packs a lot of individual machines in front of a full width truly immense fan (19” or more!).
So where do you draw the line? Summation and multiplication of signals is fine, but conditionals are bad?

That’s just arbitrary bullshitting around a non-existing problem.

Hell, it is pretty easy to check iphone’s performance with measurement metrics — make the same photo in identical environments with the iphone and with a camera with much bigger sensors and compare the results. Hell, that’s literally how apple calibrated their algorithm.
I was very close to buying an EV this summer but ended up not getting it. It felt like I could get an equivalent ICE car for about $20K cheaper.

I did a lot of research about EV charging and the more I read the more I felt I didn't understand how it would practically work. I make a long trip every month or so and it sounds like the EV charging network isn't quite to where the point where it's as easy, quick, and cost efficient as filling up gas in an ICE car.

I think I'm going to wait for another 8-10 years for the kinks and range to be worked out. PHEV or Hybrid for me until then.

A Model 3's battery is 82kWh, a Camry Hybrid's battery is 1.6kWH.

In terms of battery, you could produce (82 / 1.6 = 51.25) hybrids per fully electric car.

The total fuel savings of replacing 10+ ICE cars with hybrids is an order of magnitude larger than replacing 1 ICE car with a fully electric car.
Agreed on UX feedback. It accumulated a lot of crufts from the old technologies to the new. This just echos my early feedback that co-iterating UI and the technology is difficult, you'd better pick the side you want to be on and there is only one correct side (and unfortunately, the current app is trying hard to be on both-side).

In my experience they are very much "actual business problems"-alike situations.

There's never been a customer that asked me "I have some elves that need to make snow and here's a trebuchet", sure. But they ask me stuff, I intepret that as well as I can. Go back for questions. Apply DDD, event-storming or whatever if I'm lucky.

But there always is an interpretation issue somewhere, that makes that some "bug" is really "but I spend 5 hours implementing that exception and now you tell me it's a bug?".
Hah, yes. The job before that one involved some Magento. I bailed after 6 months again.

I guess I wouldn’t say quite never on Drupal, but it would need to be like a 2x comp move to even consider.
Yeah, the overlapping case is the less common case in my experience. And even in the non-overlapping case, the "standard" approach is often not what you might expect. For example, if one were to use the Aho-Corasick algorithm to implement a regex like `samwise|sam`, the standard algorithm would yield incorrect results if you expect it to behave like, say, Perl or Javascript regexes. That's what led me to develop `MatchKind`[1], which I believe is a novel re-formulation of the standard algorithm. At least, I'm not aware of others providing it. (Some try to, usually by trying to stitch together the right match after searching using the standard algorithm, but I don't believe it works in all cases. And introduces overhead.)

In particular, the SIMD optimizations in the aho-corasick crate only apply when MatchKind::LeftmostFirst or MatchKind::LeftmostLongest are used.
