Today I am in two executive roles but don't reveal this "status" or whatever to others. I prefer to let them be unaware who they are talking to and for them to go ahead and show me if they are a piece of shit or not.

Role titles are very demoralizing because the people who care about them are there for the wrong reason. The same people who get caught up in titles are the same ones who think setting up a Kanban board is more of a technical process than a human one.

When I was in individual contributor roles..

- For the interview process my third role I put "Senior Systems Administrator" on the resume for the previous role, even though that role's "real" title was "Tech Support Administrator".

- By the time I got to role number 4, I removed "Senior" from anything on the resume/LinkedIn.

- One of the roles I served in the last three years had "Principal" in the title. But that company sucked ass and everyone had these overly inflated bullshit because the heads of the company were basically hiring their friends with inflated salaries who sat around and didn't do much work. This really pissed off the people who did do the work and did earn their role titles. So I didn't put "Principal" on it when sending the resume out. Fuck those people. If I were sending out the resume today, I would just put one of my former colleague's consulting company on there instead.

That's great, let me know when you can use the Internet without any IPv4 addresses involved (including upstream).
> I can imagine a situation where a seasoned C or C++ programmer wants to try Rust, compiles a small program in release mode, notices the resulting binary size, and then immediately gives up on the language and goes to make fun of it on the forums.

While I'm not a seasoned C or C++ programmer I have definitely done this to a few new languages when playing around with them. My thought was "If helloworld.rust is this large, it'll be huge once I've actually written more code".
Now this is what’s actually important. No one should care that Nintendo’s IP was “stolen” when they “stole” the IP from DQ first. However the possibility of Palworld being abandoned in the future like Craftopia is a possibility. Part of the reason I’ll be waiting out for the 1.0 release before purchasing.
Treating what your opponents consider truth as hostile is basically presuming they are arguing in bad faith. They may well be, but you may be misinformed.

At any rate, iMessage does not verify that what is said is true. It just weeds out obviously hostile communication.
The way this article frames the titular juror really rubs me the wrong way.

As if her forgetting about her negligence, then finally going back to do the right thing was heroic.

It was better than nothing, but a lot worse than what she should have done to begin with.
And russia. And Ukraine.
I found that I could land cleanly about 95% of the time, but the other 5% I would (e.g.) trip over the pedals and launch the unicycle off in some random direction. Luckily it never hit anything expensive.
> You can do MR within a DAG, so you could say that dataflows are a generalization or superset of the MR model.

I think it's the opposite of this. MapReduce is a very generic mechanism for splitting computation up so that it can be distributed. It would be possible to build Spark/Beam and all their higher level DAG components out of MapReduce operations.
Making python scripts into an 'Actually Portable Executable' is what really interested me here.
Strong disagree. A judge can be dead wrong, but they have to put their opinion in writing and it's subject to appeal if there are fallacies in it. I would prefer a bench trial.
It really is a very weirdly framed article, it makes it out as if everyone else was wrong and forceful and she was simply being brave and good by speaking up nearly 30 years later, even though while it was wrong of the cops to not investigate properly, as a juror she had the duty to speak up.

It's nice she eventually did, but it doesn't make her an admirable person for only doing it after the victim lost a third of his life.
Do you use chatGPT? It’s a dialectic. You think with it. You have to tell it what you want, clearly and directly.

It’s why it’s often not a time saver for writing once you know what you want. But it can help you get going when you don’t. Many other benefits. It does not guarantee good writing, far from it!
I remember running into a paper from Google circa 2017 IIRC discussing the maintainability issues with machine learning models but haven’t been able to track down since. Does anyone know which one this is and have a link?
Anecdotally, I know a Serbian who went to study to the US for a year in high school and has a perfect Californian accent.
This is actually a really underappreciated question! (and also really interesting!) There's a lot of nuance to this because the truth is that distance becomes less meaningful as you increase dimensions. You can find some papers comparing Lp distances with different p values (p=2 == Euclidean == L2). But as dimension increases, the distance to the furthest points decreases (making it harder to differentiate near points from far points). Cosine similarity is a commonly used one, but as dimensions increase the likelihood that any two tensors are orthogonal rapidly increases. This might seem counterintuitive because the probability is really low in 2 or 3 dims as you only have 2 or a plane in R3.

So really the answer honestly tends to be ad hoc: "whatever works best". It's good to keep in mind that any intuition you have about geometry goes out the window as dimensions increase. It's always important to remember assumptions made, especially when focusing on empiricism. There are definitely some nuances that can point you in better directions (pun intended :) than random guessing, especially if you know a lot about your geometry, but it is messy and nuances can make big differences.

I wish I had a better answer but I hope this is informative. Maybe some mathematician will show up and add more. I'm sure there's someone on HN that loves to talk about higher dimensional geometry and I'd love to hear those "rants."
This Haier? https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...

Where a bunch of corporate fascists took such umbrage over debate/exploration over how their corporate envisioned scenarios were to work that they started pursuing legal action? Against open source people making Home Assistant integration?

These people basically went thermonuclear in terms of cancelling possible debate & enforcing top down decision making. Utterly unwilling to listen or permit a single other opinion other than what their top-down management built.

I cannot think of a better company to serve as a warning sign for what to never ever do. Seeing yourself & your own vision of the product as God & any deviation or discrepancy or other opinion as something to be squashed. Usually lawyers aren't involved as Haier did in their quest to stop out undogmatic use, but alas this kind of managerial hubris & self importance from the product world seems all too typical & all too poisonous; an unwillingness to let anyone else explore bounds of possibility, lest it gets in the way of those egos assured they've built a perfect little terrarium for the users to play inside.

They calmed down eventually, with an incredibly useless & empty press release hinting that they were backing off. But this seems like one of the most powerful examples of a company chuffed up on hubris unwilling to permit even the hint of debates.

Hey everyone!
I originally made this as a telegram bot that I could use for myself! I found it very useful so I made this for everyone to use! I hope you use it, to me it's really useful and helps my mental health and wellbeing.

I wish I could have made it free, but of course the OpenAI API is not free... If the pricing changes I'll definitely change the prices :) Who knows, maybe in the near future we can switch to an on-device LLM and stop paying completely! I'm happy to give away some* free trials manually, so just reach out if interested.

Thanks!

> What specifically do you think the iPad inherited from the Newton, that didn't come to it through the iPhone/iPod Touch lineage

iPhone / iPod Touch / iPad all come from the Newton lineage.

But the person I responded to said “iPod”. The iPod is far removed from iPhone / iPhone Touch / and iPad in terms of interaction modality, operating system, application platform, etc.

The iPod doesn’t run iOS, is a media player not general purpose computing device, like the others and their ancestor, the Newton.
Next we'll have editors that can tell us that what we're writing is trite.
If your native language is Ukrainian, when you learn Russian you don't get more phonemes, unless you count slightly different mouth positions of vowels.
That's not how you link to studies. It makes you look shifty. Also there's this downside that now every reader has to go look instead of just you, so the effort is duplicated (or rather multiplied by N).
Yes, this "want" of pop science is annoying. I don't see anything lacking with simply using something like "enables", "allows". An environment with sticks allows evolutionary paths that can use sticks. A world with pools of high energy makes it easier for energy-using systems to develop there as opposed to outside of them. A world with light - go figure - makes it possible for light-using systems to subsist.
It would perhaps be useful to run some experiments to see whether having a jury of 12 discuss is more accurate than having 12 independent jurors that don't communicate. (Or only communicate in very formally prescribed ways, but never meet.)

You could run those experiments by constructing cases, or re-constructing known cases.
I was at HP pre-Merced tape-out and HP did have a number of simulators available. I worked on a compiler-related team so we were downstream.

As for running linux in 32-bit compatibility mode, wasn't that the worst of all worlds on Merced? When I was there which was pre-Merced tape-out, a tiny bit of the chip was devoted to the IVE (Intel Value Engine) which the docs stated were supposed to be just good enough to book the firmware and then jump into IA64 mode. I figured at the time that this was the goal — boot in 32-bit x86 and then jump to 64-bit mode.
Convictions would go down a lot without the social pressure element that's for sure. But with a sufficient number of jurors it'd become impossible to convict even if the person is clearly guilty, because you just need one to dissent.

They can debate the case all they want. The arguments a juror makes might imply how they're planning to vote, but deliberations are over when each juror has made up their mind. You don't have to say how you've made up your mind for deliberations to end, you just declare that you have and when the last one has then everyone marks their ballot and packs up their things.
Just because some garbage ends up on the store, doesn't mean all the garbage gets through like on the PC and Android.

Well, 11 others did all the wrong things and didn't do the one right thing. In general, I think people like to reward this thing to allow people to know that if they fucked up, forgiveness is forthcoming if they try to right the wrong. Overall, that's my view.

I try to reward what I want to see more of. And there's sufficient suffering and shame from knowing you put someone innocent away that I think I'm fine with promoting anyone who fights that.

It really sucks that she fucked it up the first time, going along with other more strident people. But good on her for what she did.
When I was working for Google, only a minority of my income came from RSUs.

You might be right about some executives, or people who have been with the company for a very long time.

This is a pretty good argument for doing away with pulling randos into jury duty.
This like most issues with slices stem directly from them pulling double duty as vectors.

Capacity being conserved by slicing is important to the “slice tricks” of removing items, I assume.

Reminds me of the rabbis accusing Jewish people of marrying non-Jews as participating in a "Silent Holocaust". Way to drive people away, my dude.

In some ways, it's a moot point, since iiuc, most deaf children are born to hearing adults, and not within the Deaf community. Genetic treatments will almost certainly be preferred by those parents, and the Deaf community will slowly age up and die out in a few generations for lack of replenishment.
I was at a fancy hotel in Guangzhou that had internet through HK for some reason. It was nice not being behind the GFW during my stay there. I’m sure there is a better way to tell if you are behind the wall or not.
I'm talking about q3 and q4 23.
My first reaction to that line in the article is that it's incredibly selfish of a parent to feel this way, and then to potentially deny the kid treatment that could restore their kid's hearing.

But I agree with a sibling poster that this is actually straight-up child abuse. I'm generally skeptical of people who invoke child protective services for all sorts of imagined things, but I think this qualifies. If a child is born deaf, that deafness is treatable, and the parents refuse to treat their child, that child should be removed from the care of those parents, treated, and placed with a family that doesn't put their own selfish needs over the health of their child.
Thanks.

>If you want less heat you need the CPU to do fewer calculations.

You do understand that different machines can do the same calculations with different amounts of energy, right?
I don't mean generalization that way. Dataflow operators can be expressed as MR as the underlying primitive, as you say. But MR itself, as described in the original paper at least, only has the two stages, map and reduce; it's not a dataflow system. And it turns out people want dataflow systems, not hand-code MR and do the DAG manually.
We've been using (the old) Shiki Twoslash for a few years now for our docs pages:

https://electricui.com/docs/components/LineChart

https://electricui.com/docs/operators/aggregations

Our product, Electric UI, is a series of tools for building user interfaces for hardware devices on desktop. It has a DataFlow streaming computation engine for data processing which leans heavily on TypeScript's generics. It's pretty awesome to be able to have examples in our docs that correctly show the types as they flow through the system. I certainly learn tools faster when they have good autocomplete in the IDE. Twoslash helps bring part of that experience earlier in the development process, right to when you're looking at documentation.

Our site is built with GatsbyJS, the docs are a series of MDX files rendered statically, then served via Cloudflare Pages. We use the remark plugins to statically render the syntax highlighting and hover tag information, then some client-side React to display the right tooltips on hover.

We build a Twoslash environment from a tagged commit of our built TypeScript definitions, from the perspective of our default template. The Twoslash snippets as a result have all the required context built in, given they are actual compiled pieces of code. The imports we display in the docs are the actual imports used when compiling from the perspective of a user. It bothers me when docs only give you some snippet of a deeply nested structure, and you don't know where to put it. Even worse when it's untyped JS! Using Twoslash lets us avoid that kind of thing systematically.

The CI system throws errors when our docs snippets "don't compile", which is very helpful in keeping our docs up to date with our product. Nothing worse than incorrect docs!

We use React components extensively, and I'm not really happy with our prop reference tables which use Palintir's Documentalist. Our components are increasingly using complex TypeScript generics to represent behaviour. The benefits in the IDE are huge, but the relatively dumb display of type information in the prop table leaves something to be desired. I'm most likely going to replace the data for those tables with compile-time generated Twoslash queries.

My only complaints have been around absolute speed of compilation, but I haven't dug deep into improving that. I just set up a per snippet caching layer, and once files are cached, individual changes are refreshed quickly. After all, it's invoking the full TypeScript compiler, and that's its biggest feature.

Overall I've been very happy with Twoslash, and I'm looking forward to refactoring to use this successor and Shikiji (the ESM successor to Shiki), hopefully it improves our performance. The new Twoslash docs are look great, a huge improvement on when we started using it.
I think the website name is a pun based on the last name of its author.

Palworld is certainly more interesting than Pokémon, especially as you can actually breed monsters together and make hybrids. I don’t know the specifics of the breeding yet however, but given the various traits on Pals it seems like that may be an interesting part as well. However I wonder if it will be as complex as Jogress lines in the old Digimon Story games.

Essentially, every Digimon (sans Calumon) can turn into every other Digimon, and moves can be carried over. So for instance, if you want a Gabumon with Pepper Breath/Baby Flame you go Agumon > Greymon > MetalGreymon > WarGreymon + MetalGarurumon = Omegamon, Omegamon + WarGreymon = MetalGarurumon, then devolve back down to Gabumon. I’m not sure if it’s still possible in the newer DS games, but I know I spent hours pouring over lists to make fun thematic Digimon.
You don’t have to look any further than the Cybertruck to see evidence that Tesla builds cars it wants to build, not what the market wants. This worked to their advantage when no one else was building an EV but now it’s their biggest liability. They could have captured a highly valuable truck or even light pickup market if they just produced something practical. Instead, they launched something like what you see as a concept at the Detroit Autoshow. It’s an art project, and a vain one at that.
This needs way more context. In general C++ is slower to develop and harder to maintain if you don't already have dedicated C++ developers and your code is being developed in C++.

Usually the best thing to do is to build a working prototype with tools that are most efficient in building working prototypes. If your idea doesn't do the job you save a lot of time and money. If it does the job really well you will have a lot of pain due to the technical debt that you acquired but you will also a lot of money to pay for the pain.

In conclusion: I'm 99% sure that you're asking the wrong question.

Chinese were much less patriotic in general 10-20 years ago. They would actually point and laugh at Americans saying they were smarter than that. Times changed a lot since Xi took office. Many are still cynically going through the motions (like when you have to take mandatory ideology classes in high school and college, lots of kids just used to use them for sleep but now they pretend to pay attention).
Looks like I found a similar one just now too from the group. Thanks!

If you want a real understanding of a word, look to its etymology.

Anarchy
1530s, "absence of government," from French anarchie or directly from Medieval Latin anarchia, from Greek anarkhia "lack of a leader, the state of people without a government" (in Athens, used of the Year of Thirty Tyrants, 404 B.C., when there was no archon), abstract noun from anarkhos "rulerless," from an- "without" (see an- (1)) + arkhos "leader" (see archon).

From 1660s as "confusion or absence of authority in general;" by 1849 in reference to the social theory advocating "order without power," with associations and co-operatives taking the place of direct government, as formulated in the 1830s by French political philosopher Pierre-Joseph Proudhon (1809-1865).

I'm not sure what you describe is the opposite?

I mean, you can implement function calls (and other control flow operators like exceptions or loops) as GOTOs and conditional branches, and that's what your compiler does.

But that doesn't really mean it's useful to think of GOTOs being the generalisation.

Most of the time, it's just the opposite: you can think of a GOTO as a very specific kind of function call, a tail-call without any arguments. See eg https://www2.cs.sfu.ca/CourseCentral/383/havens/pubs/lambda-...
This doesn't sound quite right, muscle and money are way easier to fake, at least to other random individuals, then a degree from a competent engineering program.

It's much more difficult to inspect and determine someone's bank account balances or real muscle strength.

There's even jokes among body builders that most of the superficially impressive 'muscles' nowadays are literally inflated via drugs and other techniques.
Gameplay wise yeah, but some Pals are very Pokémon-like (and I love it).
Regardless of the deaf community potentially being a place of rich, positive culture, deafness is still a disadvantage and a burden in everyday life.

I get that people need to accept things like deafness or blindness, and adopting a community and sharing the support that provides is a big part of that. But denying your child treatment that would allow them to have all their senses, because you want them to be a part of your community and culture, is a selfish act, full stop. If parents are expected to try to give their child the best life possible, a treatment to restore a deaf infant's hearing is a no-brainer. It's table stakes. I agree that denying a child that is abuse.
