My previous company was doing this. I basically quit out of frustration. They weren't much better than picking random people off the street and pointing them at code. It bled into my work life when they took over a project I was on and was pinging me constantly with "hello" and "good morning" expecting to jump on calls with their teams to explain exactly how to do their jobs.

An example to illustrate what I was working with:

The studies don’t only include people who are genetically susceptible to EMFs. so if only one and 10 people have the sensitivity, the probability they will be in the studies are reduced.

Then you have the problem in the studies of people claiming they have the sensitivity when it is an anxiety or psychological issue. These are widely known issues with the studies that say there’s no effect.

As for myself, the last five years I have consistently noted how I slept, and how I felt and then only afterward measuring the frequency, magnetic and electric fields, and the radio frequency electronic radiation.

If I do not know if they magnetic field or electric field is strong, then there is no way placebo effect could occur, correct?

This is the same with the laptops that I measure high magnetic fields, giving me bloody nose. Apple computers have very low EMF emissions, while most other laptops are very high. I discovered accidentally because I work a lot with computers. It was only after measuring the fields that I noticed what was going on.

My last experiment was my tinnitus. I had someone put a cell phone on the table behind my head streaming videos. One was a video off-line and the other one was a video from YouTube. They were the same video. But the one that was streaming from YouTube after 5 to 10 minutes my tent is increased. This did not occurr with the other Video playing when the phone was on airplane mode.

Regarding my sleep, I live in a minivan and I can sleep 10 hours when I am in low or absent EMF area. If I am in a high area, especially with bid man 5G, my sleep is interrupted and it must I get 4 to 5 hours of sleep.

I can guarantee you as I’ve worked as a network engineer for one of the largest networking companies that I was way more skeptical of this than you will ever be.

Gosh yes, count me in the "I hate this behavior" group.

I've hit such horrible issues, like "why does this work in chrome, I but not in Firefox and chromium?!" (ofc now that you know it's not related to the browser). It really made my heart hurt. Also if my memory is correct, when it is in cache, when looking at the cert chain in the browser it'll show the chain including the cache, without mentioning the cache. So you end up "why the fuck does my http server I just deployed does browser favoritism and change the exposed cert chain based on the user agent... Which it doesn't have???" then goes to "okay the simple logical explanation is that it's http2 vs http1" (because that was when http2 just started deployment).

And of course at some point you hit the moment where you no longer reproduce the issue because you visited the wrong website.

Thankfully I hit this issue only once, and it wasn't on a mission critical service that I had to fix ASAP, so it wasn't too horrible, but still.
> Obviously this can't be universally true. It's a bit of a hand wavy argument, and the reductio ad absurdum conclusion would be that reducing global carbon emissions is impossible (which obviously isn't true). But I still think its something worth considering before making individual purchasing decisions based on perceived "greenness" to the demerit of price.

I think the reductio ad absurdum conclusion here is the degrowth-sounding argument that we need less economic activity to reduce emissions.

One thing your analysis may be missing is what you're going to do with the money saved.
I bailed on a small local company in early 2021. I checked in with how they were doing recently. They laid off all the local developers, minus management (of course). They're hiring exclusively in Africa, the Middle-East, and South America. My current company has done the same thing by emphasizing that we're only hiring in our EU office. I've not seen many US based roles unless they are customer support related.

It is predictable that remote work would lead to another wave of off-shoring. The question now is whether or not these companies can actually innovate with a remote, largely foreign workforce. We've all seen the abominations produced by offshore teams. Moving to a fully remote foreign workforce may be short-sighted.

Good questions!

Egypt doesn't have the advanced anti missile cruisers. Egypt has a massive tank force.

There is already a multi national naval fleet in the Red Sea patrolling the waters. Mostly US but also UK and some others.

Edit

There's more :) Egypt can't counter the missiles better than the US can, but it could certainly get pulled into a larger conflict if it started deploying military assets outside it's borders. They can't really make their situation better but they can definitely make it worse.

The only party he missed was putting our cash reserves in BTC. (which is an inside joke). It would have made the money like $4-5B based on the time of the suggestion. I think investors will be happy to hear he flatly outright said no to that. It looked like a missed opportunity (at $64k)... until it didn't. (back at $16k)

It is popular in domains where it’s effective but it’s not as useful when it’s hard to know if an output is correct. I know several tools which fuzz mobile app UIs to see if you can cause crashes or irrecoverable states with random inputs because those are easy to detect, but beyond that you start needing to have more traditional QA approaches to say whether the resulting state is correct.

One area which is very interesting is the use of OpenAPI schemas to help with APIs since you can use the schemas to guide generation and validation. It’s non-trivial to do with authentication but I found this project of interest:

The worlds fisheries are almost universally mismanaged.

Which reminds me of a conversation with a relative of mine from the Eastern shore of Va. He worked for a company that caught Horseshoe Crabs. These crabs were then ground up and used for bait to catch Conch. I pointed out to him that down the street from his company was another company that caught and released Horseshoe Crabs. They used their blood to produce medicine at great profit. Since that time Va has sadly had to place restrictions on harvesting Horseshoe Crabs. So not only did we over fish Horseshoe Crabs - we did it to over fish Conch.
It is. 100s of people don't fall from the sky if your laptop experiences a critical error.
The danger isn't primarily from other ships that the Egyptian Navy could chase off but from land-based cruise missiles launched by the Houthis. The US Navy's most advanced weapons systems can intercept most of the missiles but not all of them, and at some considerable degree of risk to the US vessels.

The only military option to stop the attacks are drone / bomber incursions into Yemen which of course Egypt has no interest in doing since it could turn into a full hot war pretty easily.

Have multiple cameras on every airplane and record absolutely everything so that pilots and passengers both have skin in the game. We are relying on individual phone cams to record events which is stupid. We are in an age where this kind of information is already pushed on police officers and the public in general. The amount of safety information we can get will be extremely invaluable, especially with something like a catastrophic failure like this 737 MAX failure.
You can easily get the source packages for the likely small set of packages you actually need for your embedded devices instead of downloading some 30GB of ISOs of everything, most of which you don’t need. You’re basically talking about an internal mirror, and you don’t need ISOs to set up a mirror.

Also, installing from source on a fleet of embedded devices makes no sense whatsoever, the software should be cross compiled on some more powerful machine. So it’s still not clear how source ISOs are helping you “flash USBs”.
> bad advice ... being liberal in what you accept causes even more malformed data to appear in the ecosystem.

This is one perspective. Another is to be robust and resilient. Resiliency is a hallmark of good engineering. I get the sense you have not worked on server-side software that has thousands or millions of different clients.
You can definitely unlearn things with respect to LLM. You retrain. It’s expensive for them, boo hoo.

> [Egypt is] free to patrol the waters

Putting patrol-boats out there may deter boarding by Somalia-style pirates, but in this case the risk comes from various missiles and bomb-drones launched from the shore [0]. Even if the the defender has a few fancy anti-missile warships, the attacker could choose the least-covered target from a constant stream of (big, slow) cargo-ships through a ~300km route. [1]

Anyone else notice a correspondence between:

Software, designed to run on old / 'forgotten' OSes or hardware, now gathering dust in some archive(s). With -at best- some retro enthousiast firing it up on an emulator?

And:

Species whose genome was sequenced, but gone extinct long ago & ecosystem it used to live in, may not exist today or be suitable anymore?

Then consider:

How likely for that software to see popular use again? (keeping in mind original OS+hw have disappeared)

How likely is it that species will live again, and find an environment to thrive in?

Hint: by far the easiest is to preserve what's currently still 'running'. Note how we're failing to do even that.
To me this all seems moot, as insurance companies will insist (via lower-priced policies) that any endeavor they cover be performed by an AI if more competent than a human, which will eventually be the case for any given knowledge-based task. If you want to accelerate that, get into research (or insurance), I guess?
Great comment. ZIRP is endless stock buybacks and $boomer_rock_band or $expensive_celebrity speaking at your conference. Those are capital owner and executive benefits and don't drive the product or curate new customers.

Tony Hawk at this event is just a marketing stunt and his celebrity can be beneficial to drive engagement, impress potential customers, keep existing customers happy, help with recruiting, etc. Those stunts can get incredible attention. Look at how common celebrities in advertising and endorsements are.

Stock buybacks, having the Moody Blues play your annual meeting or the Rich-dad-poor-dad guy give a speech to execs and play down to their biases doesn't drive marketing or the product. Its what execs enjoy personally and burn through money for these entitlements. Instead this money should be used to give raises to the working class.

Also I'd substitute accountants for MBA's in your comment.
OAI and other AI companies are merely hiding behind fair use, which includes

- The purpose and character of the use

- Whether such use is of a commercial nature

- The amount of reference material used

- The effect on the work's value

I'm very much pro-AI but I'm not willing to sacrifice the fourth estate or erase the value of intellectual labor so some guy can by another half-million dollar watch.

I hope the NYTimes succeeds in their lawsuit, not because I want to hurt OAI or because I like the Times, but because I think the more we commoditize information, the dumber we get.

If something catastrophic enough to instantly cut off there whole grid in the west happens while also ruining all the several backups most plants have, nuclear power plants will be the least of our troubles. Fukushima was a very old design and most plants in operation today don't need power for the cooling system after you jam in the control rods into the reactor to stop it.
How you can't just disable the camera on the lock screen without disabling the entire camera app (and no way to disable the flashlight functionality, as far as I have been able to tell) is beyond me. It's not even about customization, these are things people can do without your lock code! Imagine going to show someone a recent photo and something you didn't take pops up instead.
That is left to be decided, but I don't think that is what fair use says.

My (I think related) pet peeve: "There is no safe level of..."

I hate that phrase. It implies to many people that any level whatsoever of X is a danger to you.

Some examples: "There is no safe level of alcohol consumption" and "There is no safe level of lead".

These both may be technically true. That even one beer a year is worse for your body than complete abstinence. Or even a single fishing weight making incidental contact with your hand is worse then never having touched one.

But c'mon. The amount of risk posed by very low levels of consumption or exposure is so minuscule that we can safely (hah!) declare it okay.

I've seen people calling for lead to be banned from roofing flashing applications, and total bans on alcohol, citing these statements that "there is no safe level...".

You give me a reasonable definition of "safe", and I bet I can determine the safe levels of each of those things. The safe level of alcohol consumption is not 0.0000 units. It's somewhere above that. Same with lead exposure. You can have minimal exposure that results in no discernible difference in your quality of life. Where's that line?
Microsoft's can search the open internet. That'd be a long disclosure list!
As a teacher, I apologize.

Did you specifically sign up for online classes?

You should be able to specifically sign up for in-person classes for next semester.

Express your displeasure to the dean.

Some schools move students from in-person classes to online classes and hope you can not prove you signed up for in-person classes.

Meet with (and document your meeting with) an advisor. Ask for in-person classes where the lab is less important than the in-class meeting. Follow up be email. Cc the dean. The dean can overrule anyone on anything.

Then if they move you, go to the dean and complain. Find out when he is there and camp is his waiting room all day. Be clear and provide proof.

We teachers can teach many more students inline than we can in-class. It is possible they are profit driven, or that they have a facility shortage.
