I'm not sure about this part... A very common pattern in my conversations with working class friends and family from my parents' generation is: "we were told that if we sent our kids to college, they'd have better lives than we did, but instead we all just ended up with more debt than we could handle".

It's tricky! If you tell teenagers and their parents the truth - this purely academic program will not train you for any job besides pure academia, which, while it can be a fantastic career, is a super risky hits business in which only a few will truly succeed - then that's only going to sound like a reasonable risk to take for wealthy families. But then you've badly limited your pool of academic researchers to this extremely small and honestly often not as promising set of rich kids.

Maybe one solution (which is not workable in the real world) would be: any academic program that does not have a viable "job training" component should only accept students on academic scholarship, regardless of their own means. If some neutral party thinks they are promising enough in that field to pay their way, they get to go for free, otherwise they don't get to go at all. The programs that do graduate people with directly marketable job skills could keep working the current mercenary way.

The reason this wouldn't work in reality is that the wealthy would still just game the scholarships in some way. Alas.
I don't think there is a more potent example right now than the Israel Lobby.

The Holocaust and Hitler basically define modern Western morality, and Zionism's claims to legitimacy are closely related to those concepts. Associating someone with "Hitler" or "antisemitic" is worse than calling them "bin Laden" or "slavemaster".

Other popular foreign lobbies in Washington, from Ukrainian, Taiwanese, Kurds, Uyghurs, don't have nearly the same influence.

Half the places I have worked had no desire for quality software..
There are a few aspects. One is that we don't understand the fundamentals of software as well as the underpinnings of other engineering disciplines.

More importantly though, for the most part we choose not to do engineering. By which I mean this - we know how to do this better, and we apply those techniques in areas where the consequences of failure are high. Aerospace, medical devices, etc.

It differs a bit industry to industry, but overall the lessons are the same. On the whole it a) looks a lot more like "typical" engineering than most software development and b) it is more expensive and slower.

Overall, we seem to have collectively decided we are fine with flakier software that delivers new and more complex things faster, except where errors tend to kill people or expensive machines without intending to.

The other contributing thing is it's typically vastly cheaper to fix software errors after the fact than, say, bridges.

I'm so skeptical of the "he mischaracterized others' views on Helen Toner" narrative, devoid of details.

There are lots of decisions where consensus has to be forged by getting skeptical people onboard. If I had to guess, it probably went something like:

---

SAM: Hey, I think we should remove Helen Toner.

EMPLOYEE A: Hmmm, I'm not sure I agree.

SAM: Well, [reasons x, y, and z], and I'm talking to [employee b] to see if they agree.

EMPLOYEE A: Well, if [reasons x, y, and z] are true, and [employee b] wants to fire her, then I guess I could be convinced.

[later]

SAM: Hey [employee b], I think we should remove Helen Toner. I talked to [employee a] and they said they would be open to it.
As someone with ADHD and COVID brain fog, the headline made no sense to me - because the symptoms are clearly different. Oh and one is something you have your whole life and the other shows up after an illness.

Then I read it, and was expecting to hate it after discovering the article is an “opinion” piece by a journalist (with an MD). I still hated it. Here’s what’s wrong with it.

1. The whole article starts admitting it’s a hypothesis looking for evidence. Nothing wrong with making a hypothesis and trying to test it, but that’s not really what’s happening. There’s no new or rigorous research here.

2. The evidence is basically “long covid and adhd both defined by a shortage of neurotransmitters… and some research (n=12, n=1) says ADHD meds can treat long covid.” Of course, the article does admit that for most people, it’s different neurotransmitters (dopamine vs seratonin), and most people who experience long covid see symptoms go away after a few months anyways.

3. The other main justification seems to be the increase in ADHD diagnoses that happened during COVID.
Software is commonly built on non-fungible components and monopolies.

Then what is holding Israel to a lower standard to other nations a sign of?
True but it's ahead of the competition when size is considered, which is why i really look forward to their 13B, 33B models etc. because if they are as potent who knows what leaps we'll take soon.

I remember running llama1 33B 8 months ago that as i remember was on Mistral 7B's level while other 7B models were a rambling mess.

The jump in "potency" is what is so extreme.
To understand today you need thousands of years of history, both to understand where the Palestinian people came from (other empires moving them around) as well as the Israeli claims of nativism. Then layer on larger subtexts of the history of Jews and genocide/persecution, the refusal of refugees during WWII, the losing side of the Arabs in WWII, the roles of France/UK in the Middle East, on top of the roles of the Egyptians/Jordanians/Ottoman Empire, Roman Empire, etc etc etc etc etc etc.

I seriously doubt these videos are actually “in depth” in the require way if they simply start 70 years. I’ve also seen many videos myself and there’s zero depth and pure one sidedness, much of the pro-Palestinian content predicated on a dismissal of Zionism as racist but hypocritically an acceptance of all other 1st nation claims as well as the tactic acceptance of Hamas with its theocratic & genocidal goals.
That one or two motivated billionaires start interesting businesses every once in a while is justification for an economic system hundreds of thousands die because of the resulting poverty?

2016 Study: A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) estimated that approximately 133,000 deaths in the US annually are attributable to poverty.
2019 Study: A report by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine suggested that around 300,000 deaths could be linked to social factors like poverty and lack of access to healthcare.
2020 Report: The Kaiser Family Foundation estimated that roughly 136,000 deaths in 2018 were associated with poverty-related factors like lack of access to healthcare and healthy food.

1. Can you share information about the specific hardware/CPUs used and where you are hosted?

This may not mean what you think it means. From wikipedia:

"they were acting "at the order, request, or under the direction or control, of a foreign principal" and proved that the alleged foreign agent engaged "in political activities for or in the interests of such foreign principal," including by "represent[ing] the interests of such foreign principal before any agency or official of the Government of the United States."[31]"

You just have to be working for another government in a political way in the US to be a foreign agent.

Nobody wins in a conflict like this. If Hamas is defeated, and their successors don’t launch missiles at Israel, then there will be peace. Judging by past examples, those who strive peacefully for social justice have been the most successful in attaining it.
I have an account. When I was on the job market it was helpful to see what companies my friends are working at so I can ask them things. I've also been able to field some questions and help some people who found me on LinkedIn, so that's been nice.

For a while I tried using it as a blogging platform, but I didn't have much luck. I think is more of a function of my ability to write well than any characteristic of the platform.

Just run it anyway? Even 23H2 works on an old Intel i5-6500 I put it on for shits and giggs. Had to download an “enablement package” to get it to upgrade in-place from 22H2 but there’s a big community of people doing this and it was as difficult as “click this link which downloads the exe direct from Microsoft.”
No, when capital coordinates people get worried and rightfully so. There are a lot of non Jewish Zionists, just as there are a lot of Jewish non-Zionists. In our industry, the VCs are overwhelmingly Zionist while the rest of the industry is non-Zionist and it's the Zionists that are getting people fired and blacklisted.
I still have no idea what he said that you felt hurt by. I consider comments like 'trashing his rep' to be baity in that they're assuming a conclusion without any context.

Incentives are the force behind almost everything.

She probably destroyed her career with this, since acted way beyond her limits. I still wonder, was she overcompensating due to her being German?

It's very normal for EU to be pro-Israel, that's EU's official position and IMHO it's the correct one but EU's position is also pro-Two states solution and EU has significant humanitarian missions and political support for many of the Palestinian demands. Some EU countries are also very sympathetic towards the Palestinian cause and some countries which have huge importance for EU, like Turkey, the issue is very emotional.

Very wrong of Vdl to act as if EU is all-in for the Zionist aspirations. As EU Commission president, should have strongly condemned the terrorist attack that Israel suffered and offer any help possible and at the same time she should have pushed for a solution of the root cause(Israeli occupation and extremist antisemitic politics seeking the demise of the Israel - both unacceptable).

Maybe the bigger lesson here is that you should never go all-in on one side of a very complex issue. A kind of an issue where the rights and wrongs are quite evenly distributed and there's no way you end up on the correct side of it. Whoever-pro you are, you lose and she lost.
Not all other nations - just Palestine. Because Israel is in position of power.

You're also pretty limited in what you can do and who you can communicate with on an older OS.

Wasn't even aware there was a "YouTube Podcast" app. I thought they abandoned individual podcasts app and were just added it as a feature to YouTube Music, like how Spotify did to their Spotify app. YouTube Music has been relatively successful so I'm more hopeful that their podcast feature there has the best chance if they devout enough love to it. Was dead on arrival without support rss music feeds but now that they support that and you can add any podcast it has potential, but non technies will have a great amount of trouble discovering content then compared to Apple Podcasts or Spotify. And overall podcast features in YTM is very bare bones so don't see anyone switching from Apple Podcasts or Spotify ever for it, but rather just something that will help keep YTM customers with YTM.
Does anyone here know roughly how an expert gets chosen? It seems like a very open-ended problem, and I'm not sure on how it can be implemented easily.

Ever the more reason to fix it? It sounds as if nothing is fixed if it is _that_ bad.
This level of free-speech maximalism would be ruinous to so much of our current society—basically, saying that anyone can lie, to anyone, about their company, their products, whatever they want, with no consequences whatsoever.

It would no longer be possible, for instance, to trust the statements of startup founders to current or potential investors without a sworn and signed statement of some kind.

Unfortunately, it's just barely possible that the current SCOTUS would entertain this sort of thing, too.

Yes, sure, and that's how mathlib usually gets developed, project by project and PRing missing background material. I'm one of the mathlib maintainers, and I wanted to be sure there's acknowledgment here for the years of Boubaki-style work among hundreds of volunteers to build up the mathematics. In a way, now that the paper's been formalized it's time for the really hard work, which is figuring out how to restructure it (and mathlib) so that it can easily support future work. That's writing libraries for you.

Where are you getting the idea mathlib is being refactored for constructive proofs? I wouldn't say that's on the road map. In fact, the core Lean developers are uninterested in pursuing supporting this.

Since you're here, are you able to say why constructive proofs are interesting to program verification or (T)CS people? I've never heard anyone in TCS even know what constructivity is -- Lean supports their case where you write a program/algorithm and then (with classical logic) prove correctness and other properties. What would constructive logic give them?
It's a recessive/heterozygous thing. If you get the gene from neither parent, you're vulnerable to malaria. If you get the gene from either parent, you're immune to malaria and don't get sickle cell. If you get the gene from both parents, you get sickle cell. A hypothetical future person who's going to be born in an area with a lot of malaria would really want exactly one parent with sickle cell and one parent lacking the gene completely to guarantee the best personal outcome, or they'd want exactly one heterozygous parent (for a 50% chance of being immune to malaria with no downside), or they might settle for the gamble of two heterozygous parents (50% chance of immunity, 25% chance of sickle cell).
It is rather a soup of terminologies namely homodyne, zero-IF, and direct conversion architecture are all referring to the same thing.

It seems they are now settling on RF sampling for the newer transciever architecture technology but sometime direct RF is also being used for example this latter terminology is referred by Intel for their new line of FPGA and RF transceivers product integration.
I would also add that the laws in the US are very hostile to labor. For example, it is extremely difficult to organize a workplace. Even if a workplace is organized, companies can just refuse to negotiate a contract. See Starbucks…
I’m very pro-Palestinian. That’s yet another reason why I want Hamas gone. There’s no chance for social justice while terrorists are running the show.

Excellent

Seems likely that a big reason for the increase was unseen, but cumulatively huge. When everyone is not rushing so much, fewer interruptions happen. Each is tiny, but the cost of context switching is cumulative and even nonlinear. You're benefitting from bending that in the good direction - reducing thrashing.
No, I was arguing that wasting a fraction of the carbohydrate part of the food that is produced is currently a necessity for a healthy human nutrition, even if most people are not aware of this.

For now, there exists no way of producing enough proteins and fats without also producing an excessive amount of carbohydrates, which must be wasted in some way or another.

One way of using the excess amount of carbohydrates from vegetable food is by feeding animals or mushrooms, to obtain food with a more favorable proportion of proteins or fat (and this is a form of food wasting, as less food is obtained as output than it is provided as input), but another way is just dumping the excess carbohydrates (i.e. starch or sugars), after using food processing methods that separate the protein-rich or fat-rich parts.

When humans eat the excess amount of carbohydrates instead of dumping them as waste, the result is obesity, which is a worse choice than wasting the undesirable food.

We’ve got 2 S680s my uncle has a couple of X10s and a whole shed of s7 series and our whole district is green.

There were a lot of green machines sitting on the sidelines this harvest waiting for technicians to get their shit together to reset this or service that.

Back in the era of the 95XX or even 8820s you could do it all yourself.

Now a fucking light comes on and you need to call someone to drive over an hour from our nearest dealership to plug in his gizmo to say this needs to happen.
Not to mention they totally understock on prices.

Harvesting is rapidly becoming unprofitable. Just because an X10 can strip 50 tons an hour doesn’t mean it’s worthwhile at $1m a machine. That’s why we keep a CTS2 on the sidelines. Mightn’t strip as fast but at least it’s reliable and we can maintain it without getting a site visit

I would have bred them for more potato protein. It's a very close meat protein substitute by essential amino acids. Might be why it tastes so good. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6245118/

>Of the ten plant-based proteins included in the current analysis, potato protein is the only protein source containing the WHO/FAO/UNU requirements for all essential amino acids. Thus, when consuming potato protein as the only dietary protein source at the recommended adult protein intake level of 0.66 g/kg/day, sufficient amounts of all essential amino acids should be consumed. It remains to be investigated whether the ingestion of a single meal-like amount of potato protein has the capacity to stimulate muscle protein synthesis.

Anyone know about vegan protein profiles and best ones now?
Funny to see this here. I use it all the time, but it tends to crash too often so be sure to save your work frequently. It is very good when it does work though and I wished I could motivate the author to fix the bugs. I'd put the time in myself if I had a development environment set up for it.
I think the main thing you’ve got to ask yourself when abstracting duplicated code is: are these things very similar because they are intrinsically linked or is it slightly coincidental. I.e if we ever have to change B will we always want to change A in the same way?

If the answer is that you’re not sure, it’s probably better to duplicate, and see what the case is when it needs to change again - and then decide whether to abstract or not.
For those of you who have been on well-functioning teams that use stories (like Jira) and PRs, I'm wondering how you incentivize small PRs.

Our org traditionally estimates a product-oriented story with points, and then had one feature branch, which goes through QA and merge, at which point the story closes.

I think this causes all sorts of distorted effects, in that it simultaneously causes larger PRs, and also disincentivizes responsible coding practices that could grow the PR even more.

As these stories are product-focused, it's hard to break down the story into smaller stories, as this involves anticipating the tech work before starting, and makes it confusing to product folks if the stories start getting less product-focused.

I suspect it would be better to allow multiple PRs per story, or to otherwise push back on product? Should stories always be sized to accommodate one small PR?
If you have a parallel corpus in your training data you don’t need to explicitly give feedback about translation. The loss function is the feedback.

Maybe a better example is in the multimodal context. Drawing images from words is a type of “translation”. But for this task we need captions, i.e. a parallel corpus.
