I dont understand what you mean by worthy then.

>Every year SCOTUS passes on many cases they think are worthy but not worthy enough to justify taking up the court's limited time. It can't just be a "worthy" case.

You must be using worthy in a different context than worthy of SCOTUS review.

I agree with you that decision or justice of the lower court is irrelevant, the SCOTUS cares about the reasoning behind it.

A case is worthy of the SCOTUS if it has a conflicted constitutional questions at the heart of it.
agree, I make friends within a year working at a company. Even after I moved on I am still friends with some of them. However, I think that's irrelevant. your goal is to work and make money, save for retirement, have money for good experiences during. I can make friends regardless, but if it was a choice, I'd take the money and just make friends outside of work.
Yeah that sounds about right, too. Sometimes I move the slider and it doesn't adjust. Sometimes the slider is in one place and jumps to another without me touching it. Not often, but I'm pretty sure it never used to happen.

I'm probably going to ditch Hue in favour of smart switches and dumb bulbs in my next house, so not too worried about it.
Why should they build their own cloud, seeing that costs more money?
I like sending these to companies I applied with that seem interested but about which I discovered something God-awful. "Unfortunately, after careful consideration I have decided not to move forward with my candidacy, but I wish you the very best of luck in your search to fill the role" and that. It's a little passive-aggressive, but it makes me feel good and shows them about as much good will as they would show me.

With ever increasing trend of "hate speech" laws popping up, that timetable of "until" is coming up faster and faster for anyone and everyone.

Enclosed stairways are the default in a lot of countries. I prefer having a single enclosed stairway with fire-doors than multiple stairways.
Fair enough. In a more just world, it would be interesting to see if dogs could differentiate the two by smell.
We can make them turn 360 degrees like the electric G-Wagon. If upgrading the fleet of firefighting trucks to do so costs less than the value brought by tighter spacing of homes, it’s worth it.

Even as a compromise you could make a pretty good small building with 2 units per floor, single walk-up stairwell+landing+elevator on the front, and an exterior fire-escape on the back.
The "Well there's your problem" podcast did an episode on 'five over ones' (five stories of wood over one concrete) and touched on this - IIRC they were most likely to burn down during construction when the fire suppression wasn't installed and active yet.
Note that the enemy of low/zero downtime migrations like this is long running queries.

Ie. a single update query which takes 30 mins.

You either have to kill and roll back that query, or suffer 30 mins of unavailability.

As far as I know, there is no way to migrate a currently in progress query.
An older video covering all their use of 3d some years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJFlslL1wFI

The simple answer that you can infer from the video is that they make very high quality models for the design stage, which is definitely cheaper than making prototypes in all plausible material combinations.

Then you can use those models for the simple product pictures too, and packing a 3d model with generic clothes is probably faster than having a prop department do it.
An additional constraint here is that the fire trucks have to be able to navigate around the city.

London has many high-rise buildings, but the many narrow roads and tight corners mean they don't operate the tallest fire trucks.

From my understanding, Schemathesis can generate data based on a value being a string, number, boolean, etc. It also seems fairly manual to set up and has a learning curve. Our output is JavaScript that can be run anywhere.

With our TestGen feature, the AI looks at example requests in a HAR file or Swagger examples, or it can solely rely on the name of the property. From there, it automatically generates the correct type and format of data - e.g., if a field is named "address," it generates a value that looks like an address and is formatted in the same way as examples. It wouldn't be practical to cover every potential edge case and scenario without AI.
Whistle-blowing is unfortunately very dangerous.
As an aside, why is this the thing you chose to focus on in responding to me? While I do think it is true and I am willing to defend it, it's not really the central issue.

What I understand as the central point of your original comment was that we cannot condemn all of the social sciences (or 90% of the work in them) on the basis of the Claudine Gay story. I refute that with this sentence:

>The longer such fraud goes uncorrected, the more rewarded a person is for their fraud, and indeed the more lengths other people go to cover up such fraud (as was argued by the OP) the more likely such fraud is normalized in a particular field. The Claudine Gay story suggests that, if anything, XKCD was wildly optimistic about the social sciences.

Put another way, in the spirit of Scott Alexander's recent essay "Against Learning From Dramatic Events", the Claudine Gay story represents a significant deviation from what would be predicted by a model that assumed the social sciences had a more robust level of intellectual integrity.

>that were put in place to save human lives

There's an assumption here that the code was put in place to save lives. There's a whole lot of regulation that exists simply to make it difficult to build. Lots of people profit when housing is scarce (or unavailable to certain demographics), and want to keep it that way.

It is always worth asking what the point of a regulation is, and whether it accomplishes the thing it claims to be trying to accomplish.
I don't see anything about family movie nights in that article, but there is a way private viewing is good for families - it doesn't hog the TV! Only one person can use a TV at once.

I just took a spatial video of a mountain cable car if anyone wants it. Is it emotional? I dunno, I don't have a way to watch it.

> can others just subtly keep way more items in their working memory at once? If so, how can they maintain any significant level of focus without "tightening" their field of view to exclude certain things?

Anecdotally, I work in layers. If a layer gets too complicated, then a new layer is formed -- breaking apart the current layer, maybe keeping some of the parts and then other parts are only cherry picked into an abstraction and the details shoved into a deeper layer.

Much like I do for software.

Most of the time it works "fine". Sometimes I get so busy building layers that I end up two weeks later and have way too many layers and none of them are clearly identifiable. Ooof. Time for cleanup, another two weeks at least.

My boss calls it "rabbit holes" -- taking things apart, figuring out how they work, picking out what's relevant or useful to me, putting things together simplified...

Tough part is when there's a deadline.
Excellent, balanced post.

We’re at the end of a grand experiment of “you can take VC money and deliver a tech with new values, one that people want.”

The only people still claiming you can just haven’t run out of their last funding round… yet.

We have 20 years of evidence on what tech businesses can be built on the Internet that make money. It’s narrow and mostly can’t solve the problems that remain.

The escape hatch is always subscription revenue.

It’s true you can build a unique business on unique values for a unique community.

But it’s a long slog in the MicroSaaS world where anyone can & many will straight up copy you - forever.

X.com is probably the only & last experiment on whether switching to subscription rev is achievable at scale. Looks pretty clear so far that it’s not.

This might seem a negative outlook, but it could be quite positive if founders know & accept it.

The secret is out now that, mostly, founders make the same amount of money in the same amount of time whether they go the VC or bootstrapped route (when it’s a winning business).

There will always be opportunities for finance-backed cartel-busting mega runs.

But if you are a founder that cares about anything - anything - the route that gets you there is founder control, patience, and a customer base that pays.
Most people don't care at all about privacy, or at most veery selectively. There are tons of services that'd have way less users otherwise. And just a few years ago, two referenda (peoples' vetoes) against new surveillance laws in Switzerland failed miserably. In one case, we weren't even able to get the needed 50k signatures.
Google lays off 100 at YouTube; CEO says more layoffs are coming
My father was a petroleum landman, and based on what I knew about our income growing up (which was not extensive, but I'm not blind), we were dead middle of the band for US household income (like, almost exactly at the median). My mother went to work as soon as my younger sister started kindergarten, and had had side hustles for years before that. So we were definitely middle class, and not in the same way that I'm upper middle class (i.e., I am UMC because I don't have fuck-you money, but I make a lot more than even most UMC people).

And I grew up in Mississippi. So, you know, not exactly a rich area.

However, I don't have any data on what public transit looks like in terms of commuting. So... who knows? But I'm not some scion of a posh suburb who thinks that having gone to public school makes them oh-so-middle-class. And the guy who commuted LCOL to HCOL for a year? He lived with his mother and grandmother in a small house in a rough neighborhood (i.e., you could expect to hear gunfire nightly) growing up. He just had a goal and some luck.

This could be read as the solutions will be made available in other products, but there’s no substantial details about that anywhere that I’ve seen.

Yes. Especially since a big problem for Western cities is not "how do I build new megalopoli" but "how do I fill in density without acquiring a whole city block of houses in one go". For a single-stair walk-up you don't need a massive amount of property, you can plonk a pretty danged nice mid-rise building on the same acreage as one large detached house.
Even if you accept that, the age difference and the hiring of poor boys as prostitutes makes a difference.

Differences of an year or two in age of consent is one thing and some variation is one thing. The article you link to mentions a 14 year old. How far will you take "it was acceptable in their culture". Child brides in modern Yemen or many other places? Romans being into little boys?

Legal does not mean socially acceptable either. 16 might keep you on the right side of the law here in the UK, but a 40 year old who is found to have had sex with a 16 year old is likely to be badly regarded.

> If we were to apply modern standards, you should be condemning over 1B people around the planet for following the teachings of a 30yo+ guy who married a six year old girl.

A lot of them claim he did not have sex with her until she was much older. I would condemnd them if they had sex with six year olds themselves.
As Gen X, I don't think many young people can help it at this point. I don't use social media because I hate the way it invades my thoughts and mediates my experiences into a judgement of post worthiness.

If you grew up filming the most trivial aspects of your life it should not be a surprise if you feel the need to film something as important as losing a job.

Personally, it wouldn't even occur to me to film such a thing let alone to post it online. I would have assumed it would be illegal to film without the other side having a clue you are filming.

If I grew up filming literally everything though the idea of it being illegal I am sure would sound ridiculous and not even enter my mind. I am sure the thought process didn't go beyond this being some potentially really good "content".

The strangest thing to me is I have been let go from a job before. It is surely not a moment I wish to relive.
I’m curious: is there room for a middle ground involving non-enclosed fire escapes? How useful are these?
Prettier removes any parentheses that aren't strictly necessary. So if you type:

value = (a ? ((a * b) + c) : d);

It turns into:

value = a ? a * b + c : d;

This is just a very basic example, there are many situations where the result is way worse. I feel pretty confident in saying that this is quite obviously stupid.

Exactly. If modern day advances make single-stair multifamily homes perfectly safe than there's zero reason to give condo developers a free pass for designs that are found to have led to families burning death.
All safety regulations are written in blood.
I find the whole article to downplay and minimize the impact of CloudFlair's actions.
Elevator regulations are another area where the US needs to improve.

In many areas, the regulation is that if there is an elevator, it must be big enough to hold a stretcher for EMTs. These are of course far more expensive than an elevator large enough to accommodate a wheel chair.

So given the choice between some accessibility and extreme accessibility which is too expensive to provide, the legal choice is to go with zero accessibility.

After a while it becomes clear that the point of most of these regulations is to make multi-unit housing inconvenient and expensive, under the veneer of regulations that, on their face, would improve outcomes.

It seemingly is but it is also one of the most popular ways that public models are being updated with SFT. "Trained using ChatGPT output" is something blatantly advertised in the literature of some fairly popular "open" models. I'm not sure where that's headed legally but it's surprisingly common.

> but it's certainly a crime to enter one as an uninvited guest, let alone do things with traceable logs.

But this is the entire issue. It's common practice for a business to have open doors because they intend for anyone to come inside and patronize their establishment. Some of the businesses are even in residential houses, where the area is zoned for that sort of thing.

The question is what that's supposed to mean for a computer system. Obviously answering requests is the intended purpose of a public-facing internet server, and the general expectation is that if you're not allowed to make a particular request, the server will refuse it. Protocols even have widely supported standards for this, e.g. HTTP 403 Forbidden.

So what are you supposed to make it of it when you issue a well-formed request and the server answers it? The default expectation is naturally that they intended it to, because if it was intended to do otherwise then they'd have configured it to do otherwise. How it responds is how you know if you're allowed to do it.

At some point you may be able to reason out that what's happening is the result of a misconfiguration (exceptional circumstance) instead of the standard expectation (server refuses requests if server operator intended them to be refused), but this may not be obvious to the user until after it has already happened.
Probably not this quarter, but I wouldn't expect it to last more than two years tops.
I checked his app, it's https://www.wanderer.space/, no TOS, no privacy policy, no up front pricing, no mention of AI, nothing. This is as shady as it could get.

Not to mention their approach with GPT-4 is good if you want a model to __pretend__ like it's as smart as GPT-4, but when push comes to shove, it'll become apparent that it's an inferior model.
OK, I think I agree but I was responding to london. The idea that wind turbines and large-scale corn cultivation are incompatible is contrary to an abundance of counterexamples.
On top of that, the default “safe” investment, US investment grade bonds, are actually down since March 2020 (which is highly unusual for bond funds over that long of a period). So a typical 401k investment of 70/30 stocks:bonds would be expected to have done significantly worse than 100% stock.

You're on the right track.

In a normal, non-reserve-currency situation, the demand for a country's currency is proportional to the demand for its products. After all, that's what you use a currency for: to buy the products that are sold in that currency. This has a well-behaved equilibrium, because if a country produces a lot of good products, that means the value of its currency will rise, which makes goods developed in that country relatively more expensive, which cuts demand, until everything equilibrates at a point which is roughly reflective of the actual quality and productivity of the country.

In a reserve-currency situation, the currency is used for many things other than buying the products of the country. For example, oil is priced in dollars; if India wants to buy oil from Saudi Arabia, it needs dollars to make the transaction, and then Saudi Arabia has an excess of dollars. Frequently it uses these to buy U.S. T-bills or invest in American tech startups like Uber or WeWork, both other sources of demand for dollars. The dollar is basically the currency of the global financial system: instead of directly converting rupee to riyal, you convert rupee to dollars, handle your transaction, and then convert dollars to riyal.

This creates a large source of demand for dollars outside of the traditional market for a national currency. Indeed, America's export here is basically financial services, which as a sector has been doing great since 1990, one of the few areas where you're likely to get paid handsomely. The other area is tech, which at its core is about enabling these cross-border commerce flows - Amazon, Google, Facebook, UpWork, Stripe, CoinBase, Ripple, Stellar, PayPal, E-bay, Shopify, AirBnB are all about creating global marketplaces where you can buy anything from anywhere.

Finance and tech crowd out everthing else that you would normally use dollars for. Basically America has specialized in being the global marketplace - it's only purpose is to be the common standard that every other country needs to transact in. Because there's so much demand for dollars simply to do international transactions, it pushes the price of the dollar up. This makes everybody who's trying to sell actual things in dollars (rather than take a commission when other people sell things in dollars) uncompetitive.

It works great, until the rest of the world decides that it wants to cut out the middleman. At that point, since we don't produce anything anymore, we're screwed. America's basically given itself Dutch Disease, where our only viable industry is financial services.
A strange thing about that wikipedia page is, the theory was posited as central to autism, but there is no research cited from after 2010. If it is so central to the autism spectrum, howcome this article is just a bit more than a stub.
That "works", somewhat, if you want to get all your news from one place. That's the traditional newspaper model: most people don't get a dozen papers delivered.

But many people do read articles on dozens of different sites in a month. And that's a good thing; a world in which people get their news from a variety of different sources seems like a fundamentally better world.

Newspapers and news subscriptions were financially viable in a world where most people had a subscription and that's where they got most of their news. They may not be financially viable in a world in which most people don't have or want to read only one or two sources of news. And that's fine.
I find it so crazy everyone is so concerned about the terms of service, while in every other thread we have discussions on artists rights...

Artists must allow AI companies to harvest and learn from their output but people can't take OpenAI output for the same thing?

These companies already offer "styles" of other artists, what's wrong with making a "OpenAI" style?

I feel so many has lost the hacker spirit.

I can understand avoiding infinite restarts when there is something clearly wrong with configuration, but I can't figure out why they made the "systemctl restart" command also limited by this. For services which don't support dynamic reloading, restarting them is a substitute for that. This makes "systemctl restart" extremely brittle when used from scripts.

Nobody accidentally runs "systemctl restart" too fast, when such a command is issued it is clearly intentional and should be always respected by systemd.
