I detest branded clothing. why should I be paying a company to advertise for them? LV, Boss, etc. I know for most they want to show off the logos hoping it makee them look like they have taste and/or money. It's crazy to me tho. Some of the designs are atrocious

more on topic though. You know the there are branded children's book right?

Is concentrating resources on the gifted more productive in national outcomes than raising the overall bar? Would the resources devoted to the gifted be better spread out to the whole population? I think it depends on the quality of normal schools. If it is poor, it is easier to lift and protect the gifted, who are most receptive to education, from the rest.

I spent a month of my time developing an IOS app, I paid their $99/year fee to publish the app and the app has sat “in review” for over a month (and counting). If you’re going to provide this shitty of support and take 33% of my profits anyway just make the damn thing free. Big companies suck to deal with and this ordeal makes me genuinely not care what happens to them.
Maybe they'll wear it for painting. Or waxing the car.
One thing that confuses me in this whole thing we are talking about is the following....

If you paid a bunch of people to just churn out material in the form of text....art....comics....and video and then used it to train you model then is that ethical?

Because plenty of jobs own the intellectual property or copyright if your doing this work on company time....so simply by hiring people to create data for your model bypasses this ethics problem. You could even run a side business publishing articles these employees write.

Amusingly, when the hackers were previously identified as the Chinese government they changed their signatures.

So revealing the signatures in public is not a good idea.

"While past Mandiant blog posts related to UNC3886 have shared atomic indicators like file names and hashes, this particular attacker has been observed replacing indicators mentioned in publications in under a week after their release. For this reason, this blog post focuses on highlighting the tactics and methodologies utilized by the attacker with the aim to be able to detect and respond to this attack path regardless of the exact malware being deployed or commands being run."
MIT / Apache are not copyleft and do not stipulate any obligations to release modifications. There would be no basis for a third party to go after a product that incorporates software with these licenses and ask them to release it.

Apple has been using Rust for years, and I'm not aware of any decisions to move away from that, though given how secretive they are, I guess that could be a possibility.

It's not inaccurate to categorize them as "foster kids", but I think it risks putting too much emphasis on the wrong part of the root of the problem, just like thinking of people as "level 1 trauma center patients" rather than "car crash victims", "shooting victims", or "workplace accident victims".

When we see poor outcomes from trauma centers, we don't exclusively focus on better trauma medicine to improve per-patient outcomes; we also take steps aimed at reducing the number of patients created to improve society-wide outcomes.

Underlying every foster kid is some kind of failed original/default family situation. Improving the outcomes of the set of all children may have less to do with improving the foster machine and more to do with changing the dynamics that feed so many children into the gears of that machine in the first place.

Huh, interesting. Thanks for the link! I'd never heard of this, but I can picture it. It's a good analogy.
I am talking about d/dx as the differential operator d divided by dx. That's the way to make it actually work, algebraically.

d^2 f/dx^2 is actually wrong as the way to write the second derivative unless df/dx = 0 or d^2 x/(dx)^2 = 0; the first case is trivial, and the second is almost never the case.

Suppose for example that in actually x = t^2. Then dx = 2t dt, d(dx) = 2(dt)^2 + 2 t (d^2 t) and we get (2(dt)^2 + 2t(d^2 t))/(2t dt)^2 = 0.5 + (...) d^2 t/(dt)^2, so it certainly isn't zero.

But if you have actual differentials you can do algebra.

shared_ptr essentially provides reference counted garbage collection. Sure there's a small overhead to smart pointers, but in 2024 it's a very odd application where you are compute bound and pointer dereferencing is the reason!!

Garbage collection has an overhead too of course, since there is a major cost to discovering what can be freed, while the cost of doing this with smart pointers is zero.

Yes, I knew that, though I did not mention it.

In my previous comment, I was going to say (from memory), that in the second edition, i.e. in ANSI C, both types of declarations are allowed, old style and new style.

Also, if you just wrote the declaration (return value, then function name followed by types with arguments in parentheses), followed by a semicolon, without a function body in braces, it was called a function prototype.

MS C (as in, some version of Visual Studio's command line C compiler), had a flag to generate the prototypes from the function definitions. I had used it some. /Zg, possibly.

You are redefining the word "real". You know this. Some people get a delight from redefining words and seeing the reaction. It is rather tiresome; it doesn't help constructive debate. What have we accomplished here? Have you convinced anyone?

People shouldn't have to work.

UBI and social services should be funded by high tax rates so people can go to school and think and produce free stuff made from free stuff that was developed, mined, harvested, produced and transported by free stuff with free energy and production costs.

Governments get taxes from...?

Edit: And for those who were alive to experience it the high tax rates under Eisenhower were sustainable by the only first world economy in the aftermath of a global conflagration when the US was rebuilding W. Europe and Japan and had abundant access to energy. They continued into the 60s, dropped to 70% for a long time and led to Stagflation at the same time OPEC formed.

Basing anything on the pretty unique anomaly of the US in the 50s is a mistake.

It's a lot of words to write "From each according to his abilities to each according to his needs," which if you belive is fine--"A least it's an Ethos"--but argue for it instead of smoke and mirrors. Mega-taxing the rich is as much short-term thinking as maximize shareholder value.

70s US: it had been under a decade since everyone had finally agreed people with lots of melanin were also people, and soon the states would ratify the ERA, finally agreeing that people without Y chromosomes were also people. Then all the old square bigots and chauvinists would eventually die off naturally and everything would be groovy.

ARP has no security built in by default. This combined with the plaintext passwords made the attack trivial.
The case discussed in TFA is an outlier. And in some places (including the state university we worked with) these programs are regulated, licensed, and inspected, with varying efficacy.

The university we worked with is a known pioneer in a particular field of decomposition study with a small number of donors per year. For this institute specifically there just isn’t room for shenanigans.

Generally though, the difference in process, licensing paperwork (for the specific donation), the nature of the conversations you have with the employees involved, was all very different between the universities and profit based anatomical donation outfits. The ones that weren’t affiliated with a university felt extremely transactional and not really concerned with your concerns.

The patent holder is a medical device company that is probably used to much more expensive price points than consumer tech.

It's a joke about mass vs weight, since the imperial "pound" is unspecific as to being pound-_mass_ or pound-_force_, the latter being based on Earth's standard gravitional field.

The conversion of kilograms, mass, to pound-force, weight, relies explicitly on the given acceleration of Earth's gravity, ~9.8 m/s².

Since Mars has a gravity with acceleration ~3.7 m/s², for two things that weight the same on Earth and Mars the latter would need to be larger in mass to weigh the same in pound-force.

The biggest issue though, and something I will say even having been through multiple physics courses myself I don't recall having had literally explained, is that even though "pounds" can refer to force and not mass, they are not equivalent. 1 pound-mass ≠ 1 pound-force.

It is actually converted using the Earth's standard gravitional field's force, so 1 pound-mass ≈ 9.8 pound-force.

Thus, the amount on bench's is the pound-mass amount, say 66 kg or 145 pounds-mass, which is not 145 pounds-force but actually *1421*.

It's also true even that the gravitional force can change up to as much as 0.5% depending on where on Earth you are due to the shape of the Planet.

While the joke made _me_ laugh, but it seems as you dig further there isn't often reference to pounds as a force as much as I had thought, so I even learned something from it too!

There will be a lot of room for this, once I build out more of the features. In particular, there will be a lot of Clojure libraries which need to gain jank support. Clojure doesn't require "porting", so to speak, since it has a special .cljc file which can use reader conditionals to check the host that it's in (clj, cljs, cljr, jank, etc). So anywhere those libs are using Java interop, we'd need to wrap it to use native interop instead.

On the compiler and tooling itself, I have some open issues here: https://github.com/jank-lang/jank/issues

The vast majority of it is heavy C++ work, though. Outside of that, the biggest gains will come from time spent on packaging, distribution, and testing on various platforms.

And if none of that sounds interesting or applicable, don't worry. Just be sure to join the Slack channel and hang out with us. :)

> I understand the author's point of "we don't have executive vision, engineers do random things and sometimes it works". But I've also read posts complaining of "engineers are not allowed to try things, we are forced to follow executive orders".

In this case, they aren’t mutually exclusive. Engineers aren’t allowed to do things and are forced to follow executive orders. And due to the lack of executive vision, engineers end up following executive orders to build random things without any good rhyme or reason (and certainly without any long-term vision). And sometimes it works, but often enough, it doesn’t.

At least that’s been my 2 years of experience within google.

> It is profoundly stupid to not agree on a charging standard. North America is now slowly standardizing on CCS with Tesla's plug on the end.

Or maybe it's smart to subsidize companies making their standard open so that the companies can pick the best one. It took what, less than 1 year after the subsidies were introduced for basically everybody announcing they're switching to Tesla's standard?
