> IQ is a horrible and racist concept that should remain along with phrenology as a pathetic attempt to use science to explain racist beliefs

How then do you explain IQ's strong correlation with positive life outcomes like work success, educational achievement, happiness, etc

The core compiler is open source so hopefully the stakes are low to start using it on non-production equipment like test fixtures, bed of nails, quick prototypes... Based on experience using the compiler on those project, it could be transitioned to higher stakes designs.
He doesn't impale people either so I guess I am wrong on both counts. Maybe get a sense of humor:)
At the very least mention that re-running the SELECT in the same connection would include the prior results as well because they are preserved across commands within the same connection.
At 24 I mostly played video games and avoided studying for my MSc (which I passed a few years later despite my best efforts to flunk it). Then I found what I really like, dropped out from a PhD program, and am now two decades later pretty good at it.

Everyone has their own path. If it’s aligned with existing formal education and literature, that’s awesome. But there are other paths as well.
So that's what DI is. Took me 7years. Kidding!

I was ridiculously excited when I first read about this in October (if I remember correctly) last year, when a few of the first results were beginning to pop out. I found the methodology fascinating. First of all the digital unwrapping of the scrolls, then the recognition that crackling in the paper was the sign of ink, and finally putting together a model to detect it, piece by piece. I need to look into the final repository to understand what exactly they did, but they seem to have used a TimeSFormer. I'm confused by this choice as I thought it was for video. How did they apply this to images? In the end though, what a wonderful day for archeology. These young minds deserve a huge round of applause for what they have achieved.
This will be useful if you have a table with some related history records, e.g., products with product price history, and you want to get the latest price. The lateral join would get all prices for the current product, sort them by date and then pick the top row.
I have personally successfully argued in front of a traffic court judge that I could not be aware of the speed limit since the sign was obscured, and it resulted in not having to pay the ticket. I am sure I would not have been successful if I admitted guilt in front of the officer who pulled me over, or participated in his various gotcha games.
Best idea I've heard is that the public defenders office (or whatever, I'm not expert here) should be responsible for investigating and prosecuting police. There's already a natural opposition there. The current system works if people have infallible integrity (hint, they don't), this change would make the system work if people have human nature.
This is actually a concern for crowd control. Look up articles about old time street riots, like the Civil War Draft Riots, and you will find mentions [0] of crowds armed with "brick bats":

> At 4 P.M. on July 13, "the children numbering 233, were quietly seated in their school rooms, playing in the nursery, or reclining on a sick bed in the Hospital when an infuriated mob, consisting of several thousand men, women and children, armed with clubs, /brick bats/ etc. advanced upon the Institution."

"brick bats" means chunks of paver stones and bricks, typically pried out of the street, used as improvised projectiles.

I was a designer at a big company in my last job. Many of my colleagues shared the sentiment that the tools were trash, I think people just need an exciting future to rally around. I think being able to link across disciplines is super exciting also, firmware and hardware can be versioned along side eachother, no more checking schematics for pinouts and meetings about which pin which signal should be on, just put up a PR, have both hardware and FW teams review.
I listed a number of atrocities where all the attackers invariably and wrongly thought they're on the just side. And yet you only had objections to the one? Your values align with all others?

Running out of charitable interpretations here mate. Or willingness to see how much lower this can go.
At trivia at a bar as a part of a larger team composed of mutual friends. We went to multiple events as a part of the same group, became friends, then when it was clear there was mutual attraction, started going out. (we both decided to ask the other out, but we planned for different ends of the holidays, so my eventual wife beat me to the punch and made the first move.) I'll echo others advice that a large, regular, friendly, casual social group is key (and beyond just a means to an end, can/should be very fun and fulfilling in itself!) My friends/regular social events helped me through a bad breakup, and friend-of-a-friend at a regular social event is how I eventually found my wife!
I guess I don't think we (travelers) weren't worried enough.

Looking at the overall historical safety and incident records it seems like it was still very safe. Less safe than we thought, sure, but still quite safe, safe enough to not be actively worried as simple travelers, at least in my opinion.

So for me if there were so few incidents with the unknown problems, then I don't see why I should be worried now that they know about and are checking and fixing the problem and even other problems.
Yeah, that would be great. We currently don't compile down to spice but we hope to get there one day.
yeah, I'm an accountant (not an MBA) and we get a bad rap for this

That was a hypothetical. I was just observing that the Ukraine war is amazing for US interests in a strictly Machiavellian, geopolitical sense. We Europeans are getting fucked over by the Russians, Ukrainians most of all and of course Russians are destroying themselves too for the sake of land (as if Russia hasn't got enough...). The USA is laughing here. I mention this because it's clear that it isn't a humanitarian issue for the US isolationists, they just don't want to spend the money (at least in theory, of course it's really all about domestic political tribalism and almost nothing to do with Ukraine for at least one side of the divide in the US), so I am speaking to them here on those terms.

>Somehow I suspect that I am not the jingoistic nationalist here.

Yes indeed how nationalistic of me to checks notes oppose wars of imperial conquest in Europe.
> the average cop is not a monster, they're just some person like you or me.

The average person like you or me who becomes a cop gets chased out of the profession because they wouldn't turn a blind eye to the crimes their fellow officers commit against the public. Everyone left is most likely either just as guilty or complicit and enabling.
Oops, I’ve been saying “Zelly Jay” like a play on IntelliJ haha

How hard would it be to do a comparative analysis, say of Vision Pro, Oculus, and Quest? Does that capability exist? Or is it more of a summarization/vision board thing?

The UI looks great, btw.

Honestly? If I was 24, I'd quit, go back to my parents house work my ass off try to start my own business. Or, live extra frugally for a few months, save as much money and then quit & try start a business or something on the side.

You DO NOT want to be an employee going forward.

What you're doing right now is a waste of time and offers no security whatsoever. I know because I've been there.
Chalk’s Ocean was not a major airline and it was not a regional airline performing white-label service for a major airline.

I hope you can recognize that a company privately operating a fleet of seven floatplanes is not particularly relevant to a discussion about the safety of mass passenger air travel, in much the same way that a carnival operating a rollercoaster is not meaningful when discussing passenger rail.
Cool demo to show friends but I didn't learn anything new from this video. I was expecting something on the lines of how legible text is in the floating mac display, if the interaction between ipad apps/mac apps works well, is it better to use mac or ipad versions of apps, etc.

I'm getting at the fact that you pay more for an at-home nanny than many families- who also have kids, make in a year.

You are in a ridiculously privileged state to be able to simply afford that and you act as though it's impossible to get by without it.

Regular daycare costs multiples less than an at-home nanny, just as public school is far cheaper than private+tutors.

So again my point is that these are not necessary expenses but chosen.

And that I know right now people doing skilled and licensed labor-intensive jobs for less than 30/hr.
Emotions are motivation.

Here's a decent article on the anger spectrum: https://psychology.tips/levels-of-anger/

It uses five degrees of anger (one could easily quibble, and add or subtract, based on general or personal ideas of anger): Irritation, Frustration, Resentment, Rage, and Hatred.

Ask how anyone would be motivated to gain a legal or extralegal remedy if not feeling at the very least irritation.

It's a serious mistake to only equate anger to rage or hatred.
Tickets, oh what do you do with those? Close them with a 'RTFM, noob'?

Or do you, perchance, read them, try to replicate the problem, code up a test case, and do some good old fashioned programming to fix the problem?
Just yesterday I realized that post and comment ids are incremental and went back to look at the first year of posts!
Sounds like we had similar experiences except for the LANDSLIDE. That sounds horrible!

Do you really need to work if you have decades of savings? Or is it more about just having something to do?

> , I asked the cop to show me the reading

This might not be as significant as you think. My understanding is that many models allow them to set that number directly. If I recall correctly, the source for this was "A Speeder's Guide to Avoiding Tickets", written by a former state trooper.

I don't know if it's factually accurate, but the advice in that book has generally been solid.
Very interested in this. I have been contemplating building something similar, but am unaware of any existing services that do this. Haven't played with pyannote, how does it compare to whisper?
Also thought it might be useful to be able to OCR screenshots and use the text to inform the summariation and transcription especially for things like code snippets and domain-specifc terms.
In the 1991 independence vote, all Ukrainian regions voted for independence. In Donbas, the approval was 84%!

In the last census (2001), about 58% of Donetsk/Luhansk inhabitants indicated Ukrainian ethnicity, in comparison to 38% for Russian ethnicity.
I was recently reading the Greek Myths series by Stephen Fry and he makes a point of how there are so many stories we know of but have been lost from ancient texts. Stories and authors that were famous enough to be mentioned by multiple other authors but which themselves have been lost. This collection of scrolls could contain some of those lost stories and the possibility of that is terribly exciting.
Yes - society breaks down when cops act dishonestly and people stop trusting them. That is a good reason to fire the dishonest cops and hire honest ones, but in the current climate, that can't happen.
Wolves are cool. If they solve problems that's a bonus
I have the exact opposite impression. I don't know why the board hasn't fired him yet. He was brought in to change the company culture. It's been 4 years and this happen. 4 years is a long time, and this failure shows that he failed at what he was hired for (no, making money is not his main job.)

Of course he is going to say whatever is needed to save his job, but in my eyes Boeing should move on and choose someone else. Time is running out.
It has to be asked out loud - do you think that the admissions departments at top universities haven't explicitly thought about this?

In a post-SFFA vs Harvard world, anecdotes and thought experiments carry very little water. We all know - and the universities are very explicit about this - that socio-economic indicators are the new affirmative action. It's clearly the only practical way to effect the sort of diversity missions that many Universities seek to establish (since by their own published work, it correlates with strong community-wide academic and scholarly outcomes0. At this point, since we all know what's going on, the only question to ask is, "Why didn't you try to game the system since you know how it works?"

I'm not passing judgment on whether this is a good or a bad thing, whether it's honest or dishonest, or whether it's fair or not. It's just reality. SFFA v Harvard is a _horrible_ decision based on absurd jurisprudence and a total divorce from the truths of the world we live in. I commend everyone from admissions boards to clever families who learn how to play the new rules of the game better than those who backed the jurisprudence in the first place.
So excited to see how much text is recoverable and to what extent this can bolster our collection of Epicurean writings!
Yeah no different to Hitler taking the Sudetenland really. Pity to see such flagrant ethnofascism here.
It must be really weird both for the FAANGs themselves and their employees - if laid off there’s only a handful of other companies one can go to to get similar total comp, and worse,
many of them aren’t hiring right now

So getting laid off from a FAANG is like twice as bad as getting laid off from <other tech company>
The Dartmouth plan (D-plan was basically a way to introduce co-education without reducing the number of male students. Not a bad thing at all but that was pretty much the impetus.
Wouldn't the obvious precaution here be to roll out the new feature to just a portion of the waitlist?

I guess the risk here is that you'd never hit the same thresholds as when letting it all rip at once, but wouldn't it be a bit more graceful and let you work out at least some of the problems in front of a smaller audience?
For sure, its amazing how many places you need to write down basically the same information today. EDA tool, SPICE, requirements pages, documentation. SPICE is definitely an exciting one, particularly as the model can be versioned along with the package with parametrized tests that will automatically run in CI.
This is speculative and based on a possibly not-representative sample, but what I've noticed from watching bodycam footage is that when the suspect asks for a supervisor, the police give negative/discouraging replies to the suspect while they are also calling a supervisor in the background.

I assume the intention is to comply with the letter of the law while maximizing the chance that the suspect will abandon the request and not force them to wait until the supervisor arrives.

I know sql pretty well, but every once in a while doing things like percentiles come up where I don't remember the exact incantations to get the window syntax right. Things like this can save some googling and documentation reading. I can read it to see if it makes sense, and execute it. I can create tests for the output to verify. Can save a lot of time. If it's wrong, I use the fallback of googling for examples.
It takes two lines in your Cargo.toml to turn overflows into panics in release mode in rust, if you don't mind the performance hit.

Or more sensibly you can set clippy lints to disallow any operation that may overflow, forcing you to specify the desired behavior (either with the .{wrapping,checking,saturating}_{sub,add,mul,div} functions or the Saturating<Type> etc wrappers)
TeamViewer has horrible security history though.
> In some cases, the question becomes literally to do it myself for them and I said yes, then.

The answer here is either a "No." or a "Let's share screens and I'll talk you through it this time."
Very easy! You just need to ground it with the right data sources. Eg. you can add a web search datasource for "oculus reviews", and then add a table component to your canvas, instructing it to provide a comparative analysis.

The source material doesn't need to provide a comparative analysis itself: as long as it finds data detailing Vision Pro specs (which it already found) and Oculus specs it'll be able to do the analysis.

Canvases also have memory and auto-refresh, so once it finds the specs it can remember them across refreshes/updates, but also incorporate any new information it finds.
I was cycling on such a "beautiful" cobblestone path with a tram line through it, and got my tire stuck in the tram rail, I instantly fell over, and only luck saved me from getting run over by a car.

Where I've seen cobblestone replaced generally everyone was much happier with the new pavement.
Most people overestimate what they can achieve in a year and underestimate what they can achieve in ten years. Bill Gates

If you decide to learn the lyre today, a year hence you’ll still be a beginner. But by the time you’re forty you will be good at it, modulo quitting because the lyre is not for you. But even if you quit tomorrow but took it back up at forty, you could be pretty good by the time you’re sixty.

Which suggests that your interests will change over time as you learn more about the world and more importantly more about yourself.

One thing worth learning is that not only can you no longer keep up, but that the periods where you felt you were keeping up were an hallucination. There’s simply too much and humans are too little…

…the feeling of keeping up is the result of keeping out at worst and ordinary ignorance at best.

So just learn what you learn and enjoy the time you get to do it.

Good luck.
> You DO NOT want to be an employee going forward.

Emphasizing this point as well.

Tech is a competitive industry, and is slowly catching on to the fact that it doesn't require lots of people to get results.
Haven't deployed it yet, but the API seems decent when doing local development.

It's a bit low-level compared to a SQL database; you're building your own indexes and need to write transactions to update them atomically along with the main record. (But it does have transactions, so it's reasonable.) It reminds me of App Engine datastore, back in the day.

There are some fairly tight limits. (64k for records.) I wouldn't use it for storing images or larger files.

Not sure what I'm going to do for full-text search. But I've built simple search engines from scratch before.
You are in for plenty of surprises.

I am not "dismissing" anyone as anything. I am talking about literal religious fanatics who have the same opposition to things like UPC codes[1] and credit cards[2] and COVID vaccines[3] and who knows what else.

I'm not sure how a state-level database is supposed to be safer in real life. The idea that state governments are somehow less dangerous to minority groups than the federal government conflicts with large swaths of US history.

I've been really happy with using Deno as a general scripting runtime... A shebang at the top and external dependencies are loaded to a shared path on run.

I do wish there was support for Linux distributions based on musl (Alpine) directly for smaller containers.

In general I like the Deno approach better than Node. Would be cool to see the UI tooling flushed out. A material or fluent based component library where Deno can be used like Flutter would be very cool indeed.

This the way to stop it. Make it fruit of the poisonous tree and the prosectors will get the cops to shut up, because all their good evidence will be destroyed by it.

It's amazing how much they have to work around things that would incriminate or sway a jury (such as cutting out anything that might reveal priors), and this would be something more.
