Discrediting a website just because of the name is not a valid argument against the content. Even though most hackers worship the government as a god, I can assure you that tax returns or property data won't even be close to accurate for getting the net worth of billionaires. They have funds and shell companies where the US government can't touch them.

The nature of this information is that it will always be unverifiable, but unless you have any sustainable criticism against the numbers on that website, you shouldn't disregard it completely.

Yes and who was supplying the weapons and other support during that time? Arguably defence spending in the US and western Europe directly contributed to the deaths.
So are you arguing we _should_ make rich people poor so they have motivation to work; that only poor people can be motivated to work?
It's difficult to tell where the initiatives are coming from because the willingness to write and accept empty claims of relevance appears to exist at all levels and stages in the process. (For both DEI and "questionably applied number theory.") If they are getting that little buy-in from even the administrators I can't imagine how they get there in the first place.

It's like the same people put application and social consciousness first in their RFPs and then turn around to accept invisible fig leaves during evaluation... Who's getting fooled, the government? Politicians? The public?

Yeah YTP is what I think of when I think of YouTube-originated art form. It's sort of like a visual version of the "Paul's Boutique" crazy sampling to make new art.
I had a similar experience.

On the first run it downloads about 30GB of data. I don't know if it would work offline on subsequent runs because for me it never ran again without crashing!

Also upon uninstallation it left behind all its data (not user data, mind you. But the executable itself, its python venv, its updater, and all the models. Uninstall basically just removed the shortcut in the start menu).

This is why adding equity to these comparisons is so problematic. It’s not apples to apples
Not a bad side gig. I forwarded this to some of my less-than-employed friends.

Beats driving uber-eats and other shitty gig jobs IMO.
Kagi, what an unfortunate name. It means "you take a shit" in Italian :(
1. Gepards are big and not suitable for special operations roles. You can't throw one in a truck and haul it through rough terrain.

2. The Roadrunner system doesn't "fall down", it's designed to land if the intercept is unsuccessful.

3. Roadrunner is designed to be "cheap", compact and re-usable, as much as possible.

I thought the basic premise was wrong that the Kernel only uses a maximum of 8 cores. It was rather some scheduling logic that was implemented with a maximum of 8 cores in mind. So the author may have been right that something was wrong, but also wrong about the details (like in this article)
I have a stupid fondness for the level of hacks that we all collectively developed for IE6-9. One of my favorites was tricking IE6/7 into supporting Base64-encoded images in CSS by essentially triggering Outlook rules.

One of my coworkers had an offer for Datadog that was ostensibly sold to him as remote before being rug-pulled to a hybrid offer at the last minute. Best course of action here is to simply swap out "Hybrid" wherever Datadog states "remote".

Couple articles that are txtai-specific but general enough in terms of vector search.

> But I mean using a Vector store isn't just a matter of generate some embeddings, slap it in a storage, and then start doing searches like cosine similarity, hoping for the best.

That is 90% of the work with RAG. RAG requires a surprising amount of QA to ensure "the best" is sufficient for your use case.

For clarification, cosine similarity is a metric not a search type, and people like it since a) it allows for more defined heuristics since cosine similarity is limited to [-1, 1] and b) it's computationally efficient (dot product, as with Euclidian distance) if the vectors are unit-normalized beforehand.

There are indeed multiple search types but HNSW is the best 99% of the time for both performance and latency, and is implemented in almost every modern major vector store.

Hi... I'm Steven C. Buttgereit. I have a fairly substantial history working with & within small to mid-sized enterprises. Over the course of my career, I've gained experience in professional services, management & project management, and database/software design & development. In addition to the listed technical experience, I have extensive business domain knowledge related to accounting, inventory/logistics management, and other business operations related topics in the retail, distribution, and manufacturing industries.

I typically freelance through my micro-consulting business, Muse Systems, but am open to other arrangements.
I agree. I honestly think there’s a cohort of creative types around the world who would love this job.
It's kind of a miracle that no one at ASML made "the hard but necessary decision" to give up on EUV.
Not to be confused with Onnx, a popular language for machine learning models, that is also commonly used with WebAssembly. Even the logo looks similar.

What’s your point? That a truck with zero product iteration beat a sports car that has had ~50 years of product iteration? (while also towing said sportscar)?

I’d say that’s quite remarkable and reflects well on Tesla’s engineering prowess.

A large part of the Gepard weight/size is armor, not the AA, but yes, not man portable by any means (edit: the gun assembly is still many tons, I'd guess).

The linked text talks about defense against cheap drones and cost curves - not about niche special operation air defense.

If you have to defend an installation against a hundred cheap drones a week or so, not sure roadrunner is that cost efficient.

On 2), yes, but only if the intercept fails kind of completely.
Without having physical access to my hardware, where every disk is FDE anyway?
Pretty sure I measured a 33" BF Goodrich MT (mud traction) tire on an aluminum 15x8 wheel at 93lbs. However, it was about 25 years ago so memory's probably a bit fuzzy.
In the post I argue that the difference between the best male and the best female players can be partially explained by participation imbalance. This is, if in a race there are two teams, one with 100 people and the other with 3 people, it's very probable that the winner will be from the first group.

Weird to call out gender studies as the leader, when 1) it’s not; 2) it’s specifically in a category of low enrollments, thus larger error; and 3) even the “hardest” field gives over 50% A’s.

Also weird to call this single recent snapshot as evidence of anything related to the trend without any historical data. They have 10 years of historic GPAs which show inflation, but grade inflation was a regular complaint I heard about Ivy schools in the 1990s. How do we know which disciplines are responsible for the rising GPAs? Anyway, given the low enrollment, it actually can’t be gender studies behind the overall inflation.

There are worse ways to make money.
Obligatory, not directed at you in particular since I'm sure you mean no offense, but just voicing a pet peeve:

I grew up bilingual outside the US, and speak English with a hybrid British/Indian/Middle Eastern accent (with some of my personal quirks, and mixing increasing amounts of various American accents over time). I can understand English in nearly any accent (Singaporean, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indian, Nigerian, eastern European) as long as the words involved are globally used and the grammar is passably queen's. Especially after hearing it for about an hour. And people who natively speak English with these various accents usually can understand my English better than they can an average American accent. Yet in this country, my accent is belittled, despite being perfectly understood and more versatile. Even by others who don't speak with the American accent!

This is the problem of the "default accent" anywhere being referred to as "no accent", and therefore anything deviating is considered "having an accent". This makes "accent" a negative trait, scaling from 0-bad to heavy-bad. But if the vernacular were such that we said "American accent" instead of "no accent", then noone's accent is bad, just not used to.

Most of my non-American peers who were raised on English have a better command of the language than my American ones, yet they are mocked for their accents as if they don't know the language, when in reality it's the Americans lack of familiarity with the language (as its used globally) preventing them from comprehending the language.

So yes, put in more work, the world is shrinking and English is the global language (for better or worse). What you're saying is spoken from a position of privilege because the culture allows you to mock others' accents and imply your version of it is the correct one that everyone else should put in work to provide you with, rather than the other way around.

Every time you hear English with an accent other than British, American or Australian, remember that it usually means the speaker knows at least one entire other language as well, probably one that you would sound like an idiot if you tried to speak it. Don't be rude or dismissive of their command of English.

In fact, you were so close — you called it a "no accent am-english", when you could have just called it what it is — "an american accent".
The compiler does not have many optimizations currently implemented. Currently, the compilers just uses constant folding and generally reducing unneeded operations if possible. There are plans to do function inlining and better tree-shaking, but those are a ways out.

The "nice" thing about WebAssembly is that the job of generating optimized machine-instructions is up to the WASM embedder, which Wasmer is doing very well right now. Onyx does have a second runtime that is currently only implemented for x86_64 Linux, that does have some more optimizations, but it does not compile to native code; just to an interpreted byte-code.
Ask HN: Best WordPress practices for small biz: security, themes, plugins, SEO
I've signed up to build a WordPress site for a small NLP company in the EU. They want a minimal online presence and competition is high. They're hard-working, but old-fashioned, don't use automation a lot. I am sort of supposed to also do marketing & SEO stuff, but I can't imagine how to differentiate them well without a software product in Python.

I had a little experience with WordPress, and would like to build a minimal professional looking website with minimal costs (free themes & plugins). I generally wouldn't like to focus a lot on WP back-end, SEO, but would rather focus on stuff for which I actually signed up for this job - learn & practice more Python.

Assuming that my hosting provider ensures server-side security, what are the best WordPress security practices for starter admins (apart from strong passwords, 2-factor authentication, not installing shady plugins or too many of them and keep updating everything in WP)?
What WP themes & plugins would you recommend including SEO automation?

If possible, what can be the best SEO strategies, if a dozen of top ranking competitors are all the same professional and high-quality?
I am a beginner and generally would not like to focus too much on SEO, but I've complied a list of keywords for my niche, with highest search volume and from Google search.
Companies can be employee owned, but there is no (and there should be) laws specific for them that make them attractive to start. The fact that 2 of your examples are required by law to be that way and the other examples are so few that it really drives the point home that our laws discourage employee ownership instead of encouraging it.

To put it another way, according to a brief internet search, there are around 1.3mil companies in the US with >10 employees and there are around 6000 employee owned companies. As such employee owned companies make up around 0.005% of businesses in the US and, IMHO, this shows that the legal system isn't there for them or there would be more (a lot more) of them.

They are selling exactly the connection the user is buying. A virtual service is being sold and a recipient is using it. This is not the same level tricking someone to give you money on the internet with a sob email. This is a legitimate business transaction for all parties involved.
I totally agree on the scammy part. Unfortunately, that's a big university in Germany (RWTH Aachen University), and I think many other universities in Germany apply similar filters. And potentially some other people who use similar filters would get blocked in the same way.

I just thought that the creator might want to know about this.
Don‘t work hard, inherit hard!
Pages contain other sources, however, which makes WP a good place to begin research on a topic.

This place isn't debate club and nobody's getting a prize for winning an Internet argument.

They are in fact strong opinions. Normal people don’t take their clothe off to sell images of their vagina to people who are mentally unstable. Not sure how much more principled you want to go about it.
No, but it makes less sense to haul around an ICE or more battery than needed for 100 miles.
