The degree is worth what it can "buy". If a generation ago the degree got you to the 20th percentile earning bracket, but today it gets you to the 40th, then that degree is "buying" you less earning power overall.

Concrete example: a generation ago you could get your foot in the door at a bank with a high school diploma as a teller. Today? You need a 4-year degree in finance. Further, if you walked into that same bank with that same 4-year degree a generation ago, you'll probably be much further up the ladder than teller.
In practice, I’ve noticed keep-alives are unreliable especially for shorter timeouts on say websockets where you need a bit tighter intervals. Every OS does something different and usually the timeouts you get are quite long (and unknown to the application layer iirc - an opaque mix of os level knobs/multipliers and per-socket options).

Afaik current best practice is to reimplement application level keepalives everywhere. But it seems to me like both protocol pollution and prone to subtle leak-like bugs for dead conns. It would be nice if keep-alives could be used instead.

Also: NATs and firewalls put timeouts in their “routing tables”(?) so that conns are dead after X seconds anyway. Does anyone here know from experience what X is typically, in practice?

Branding changes all the time. This is hardly a phenomenon unique to royalty. As for the cost of this, I don't think you'll save very much from your really rather high tax contributions by asking a few people not to change the logo on a website. I find it odd that you take issue with only this form of cultural spending. Did you know some of your taxes also go towards museums and endowments for the arts?

More fundamentally, some of your taxes are always going to go towards things other people want but you don't. For instance roads you won't drive on, or other people's healthcare.

If they wanted to make appliances last longer they could do it. Simply they push you to buy more. Which is in the exact opposite direction.
RTX 4000 isn't even data-center grade - it's workstation/pro segment. This is an important difference, as some server vendors (such as Dell) will not validate the workstation segment to run in their servers.

The segmentation is a huge mess from NVIDIA. Consumer grade GPUs aren't supposed to be run in data-center / compute (forbidden by EULA) and the workstation GPUs are in a weird middleground limbo, being many times more expensive, but not exactly attractive for server use for the above reasons.
Articles (and the ensuing comments) always miss something major: construction and software are not even remotely the same thing.

For example, in construction you have:

* Architect (designs the building)

* Designer (prepares the technical drawings)

* Engineer (signs off the drawings)

* Manufacturing (makes building parts to the drawings)

* Surveyors (make sure the land can be built on)

* Builders (build the building)

* Roofers (put the roof on)

* Site managers (make sure the builders build the building)

* Building Control (government sign-off on the built building)

* Sparkies (put wires in)

* Plumbers (put the pipes in)

* Plasterers (put the plaster on the walls)

* Painters/decorators (finish the walls)

* Fitters (put everything else in)

All of these are separate businesses and I'm sure I've missed some things, or misnamed others. And, despite a number of people being legally liable for shoddy work, we still see things like Grenfell happen.

Software engineering, by contrast:

* Product manager (figures out what to make)

* Designer (figures out how it should work/look)

* Software engineer (writes the code)

* Auditor (compliance with relevant standards e.g. PCI DSS or SOC2)

There's also a bunch of stuff supporting that but I left them out because I'd add 5x more on the construction side.

My point isn't to say who has it harder, or which field is "better," just to point out that the fields aren't comparable at all.
I disagree, and it seems to me that you are using words in senses other than their strict meanings, but I can see this is a big deal to you, and life is too short to argue over something which to me is unimportant.

The value of a degree has increased as a product and decreased as a signal.

Some would argue that the signal was a better product than the underlying asset.
No, it means that your pecking order now has 20 slots on the status ladder instead of 10. The individual placings still depend on the status metrics being applied.

This is zero sum because the pecking order is a linear ordering. If one person moves up someone else has to move down, and there's only room for one person at the top.

Real reputations don't work as nakedly and are more fluid, but the principle still applies. No individual can simultaneously be top, middle, and bottom of the same reputation order. Everyone gets one slot, and the relative reltionships are one dimensional.

Zero sum is about differentials, not about absolute rankings in some (impossible) objective sense.
Modern routers are pretty good, but the fact that WiFi still has any issues whatsoever in environments without crowding seems pretty nuts.

I guess it really is just that complicated.

I don't have much need for any plain Ethernet routing beyond what I can already get for very cheap (Although there's always nice to have stuff to add), but it's cool to see effort made to improve networking in general.
If you're daytrading you essentially need to be pricing that risk. If your strategy earns effectively 8% APY and you have to trust Sketchy Exchange Inc. it's probably not worth your time. If it's earning 600% APY then maybe it's worth keeping some amount with them.

The problem with only having a few SSBNs is that they need to be around for the "beyond the grave". The canonical example here is an adversary picking them up one by one (perhaps just rendering them inoperable) in a low level conflict, and at every stage, you get to a "use them or lose them" situation that would mean total destruction when there is a limited conflict. Large, dispersed forces are much tougher to sabotage that way and leave you with more options (if there are a lot of submarines that changes it a bit, too, but having a small fleet is not a great position to be in).
Last time I tried a temp above 1, I almost instantly got gibberish. Pretty reliable parameter if you want to make the transformer output unusable.

"Fitzgerald said that Espionage was the “quintessential” political offence, acknowledged as such in every text book and precedent. The court did have jurisdiction over this point because ignoring the provisions of the treaty rendered the court liable to accusations of abuse of process. He noticed that neither Swift not Baraitser , had made any judgment on whether or not the offences charged were political, relying on the argument the treaty did not apply anyway.

But the entire extradition depended on the treaty. It was made under the treaty. “You cannot rely on the treaty, and then refute it”.

This point brought the first overt reaction from the judges, as they looked at each other to wordlessly communicate what they had made of it. It was a point of which they had felt the force."

ahaha wow. Love that.

This is not Taliban getting into semiconductors, this is Japan who is already into semiconductors but lost its edge in this particular field but its leading in some other fields. Therefore they already have a considerable know how on mirrors and laser that they will have to improve on. IMHO the catch up will be much quicker and much cheaper than what the Europeans and Americans spent on to explore the path leading to what we have today.

I am erring on the side of durability because I'm not really into new gimmicks but it's a daunting proposition to buy the "good stuff". A low stakes example is my Miele dishwasher that I bought when I was outraged at my previous Siemens/Bosch one breaking due to a very simple part that just can't be replaced because of the way the machine is (deliberately?) constructed. Just getting to that place can slice your hand open if you are not careful. So this is all just to say: I get it and I am in. BUT. There no reliable way for me to know that that if I pay 4x as much as that I'll get 4x as much durability. For all I know, my Miele could also break in a year and then what?
Pretty much.

The model outputs a number for each possible token, but rather than just picking the token with the biggest number, each number x is fed to exp(x/T) and then the resulting values are treated as proportional to probabilities. A random token is then chosen according to said probabilities.

In the limit of T going to 0, this corresponds to always choosing the token for which the model output the largest value (making the output deterministic). In the limit of T going to infinity, it corresponds to each token being equally likely to be chosen, which would be gibberish.
Maintaining redundant fibre links (which exist) would likely be cheaper than maintaining a decades-old microwave system (I would wonder if they even have the appropriate spectrum licenses anymore, anyway).
Somewhat. It's not a binary. At the lower end you absolutely need a minimum level of pay just to survive. As you get higher up the earnings tree it becomes more and more about status and less and less about actual spending.

In the middle you get people on mid-six figures complaining about the cost of housing and school fees - which is an interesting mix of humble status bragging and genuine concern about limited disposable income.

By the time you get to billionaires it's a childish status pissing contest with numbers that are almost meaningless in real terms.
Possibly. It's not a bad idea! The performance is pretty good in our initial tests, though cloud platforms do scale further in terms of concurrency.

Given how quickly things are changing, using more generic hardware (i.e. PCs and Nvidia cards) or leasing cloud based services might make more business sense in the long term, so investigating fallbacks with more control, like this server, are worthwhile experiments anyway.

Further, while I've been an Apple superfan for a couple of decades now, their recent attitude towards developers stinks, and I'm loathe to give them any more money than I need to right now, so I might be migrating away from the platform in any case.
Curiosity and perseverance are probably different traits than intelligence. It'd be nice to know if these can be learned, or whether one is born with them.
I’m pretty convinced that if you just show up to class, be nice to the prof, and do all of the assignments you’ll get a mercy C or D regardless of how you performed.

I’ve never tried this (finished with a 3.9) but observed my friends.

Some would do the above and miraculously pass courses they, according to exam scores, were certain to fail.

However, my friends who had poor exam score and spotty attendance never made it through. In fact, sometimes they were so convinced they’d fail that the dropped the course or no-showed the exam — so they did in fact fail.

Hard work, maybe — simply trying is easy. But more than that, persistence.
Yeah sometimes there's (relatively) private information in the rest of the message sequence that I don't mind sharing with OpenAI (with use-for-training turned off) but I don't want to go out of my way to share with all my friends / everyone else in the world.
Yeah 100%. It is just a dumb display. One input. I don't even use the speakers or the remote it came with.
>So why do I keep going? There are plenty of coffee shops I could choose from, so what makes this one so special that I’ve become a regular despite the terrible service?

The "terrible serving" being them serving you just fine, but without smiles and cozying up to you?

That's what we call normal service.

Terrible service would be if they got your orders wrong all the time, messed up the coffee, delay serving you, be rude etc.

So the reason they seem to "hate you" is probably because you're an entitled shit. You're there to get coffee and bagels, not smiles and hugs.

>There’s a certain cultural cachet that comes with the cafes we frequent – they say something about us: our taste, our character, our place in the community. For many of us, our favourite coffee shop is not just a place to get our daily caffeine fix – it’s a public declaration of who we are.

OK, add "unsufferable" on top of "entitled" too.
Eh? This is a giant microwave telecom tower. They're all over the world (find a large city that doesn't have a convenient nearby hill, and there are probably one or two) and they're ~all disused. Fibre made them essentially useless decades ago, and the London one doesn't even have its antennae anymore.

It's presumably listed, so they can't just demolish it. What do you _want_ them to do with it, if not this?

It's still been lazy for me after Feb 4 (that tweet). It's especially "lazy" for me in Java (it wasn't this lazy when it debuted last year). Python seems much better than Java. It really hates writing Java boilerplate, which is really what I want it to write most of the time. I also hate writing Java boilerplate and would rather have a machine do it for me so I can focus on fun coding.
Your insight into what's going on in a head like mine is spot on, and I have wished for a long time that my parents would (ever) have made an effort to put me in rooms where I wasn't the "smartest" person there. When I was young, I was often the least experienced, but throughout school even, it was obvious to me and usually to them that I was smarter than my teachers.

It sounds like a humble brag but it's not. It's more like a cautionary tale. Smart children need the experience of having to work to understand things, of knowing there are things other people know or that humanity in general could know, but not instantaneously.

Intelligence could be a powerful tool, but there are precious few people teaching children (or, heck, adults for that matter! I would pay serious money for a remedial "how to work hard for things and make incremental progress" classes as an adult!) who have it how to use it.
How comparable are IQ tests from 1940 and 2024? And how good a measure of intelligence are IQ tests?
You don’t have to suspect! There is probably a bazillion of papers that study how conscientiousness (ability to “sit and study”) and other traits relate to grades, how they interact with IQ and so on. Here is one I just googled: https://www.mdpi.com/2079-3200/11/7/146
You need some software to make a paper wallet. It’s pretty hard to write it yourself from scratch, so you ultimately still have to trust a software distribution. Scammy paper wallet generators could make semi-predictable private keys that the author could recover when they see the public key appear on the blockchain.
Personally, it always run fine at the beginning until it isnt and then you have to spend the rest of the day trying to figure out what is wrong. For desktop that is it, servers can just run 24/7 without problems (mine just run containers).

Say Trump wins in 2025 - he pulls the US out of NATO, Putin threatens the EU with nukes, and only the UK and France can offer any kind of resistance.

If the UK is out that leaves France, and if Le Pen wins France will be in the Putinist camp.

My guess is Putin would nuke some US cities too just to make a point, and his fans in the US will be very surprised when that happens.
Some important differences:

It’s worth asking for free access. Make it clear that you are an individual (not a commercial users) looking to learn and that you wouldn’t be a burden on their network or support system.
The issue is that once the information exists, it will be used. Every infant in Sweden has had to supply a blood test for research since 1975. Then a murder happened and suddenly the police gained access to the database. Then a rape happened and the police requested access again. A few years ago politicians discussed opening it up for all "serious" crimes. Now they are changing the constitution to limit what one is allowed to say, extending what constitutes a crime.

I'm all for limitations to stop famous cases of one person having 50 identities but the current path is not without risks. The data we collect today might be used differently in 30 or 50 years and then there's no turning back.
It can't be disputed that (central) London is one of the world's biggest tourist attractions, and much of it is geared towards activities. But it's far from the only factor to life in a city that's larger, more diverse, and more distinctive than ever. It's one of the most varied places in the entire world when it comes to demography, wealth, cultures, and opportunities – is this a bad thing?

OTOH you have Intel which never stopped R&D and they still have lots of trouble catching up; arguably they've been trying for almost a decade now, five years if you're being generous. (And they buy tools from ASML! Which other posters explain will also be the case here.)

Our semi-informal UK constitution distinguishes between 'the Crown' (the post) and 'the Monarch' (the individual who currently occupies that post). The parliamentary role is defined in terms of the Crown, not the specific Monarch. This is why we can have an immediate transition of power when the Monarch dies, following our rules of succession.

It was 15 - 20 years ago. For a short period of time tech reviewers where all Vizio fans. Basically all recommendation heavily favored Vizio, then they pretty much disappeared and now they are back in the press, but not for being amazing.
I think it's just that the bandwidth of the microwaves is not much by today's standards. It was capable of 150,000 simultaneous telephone calls, which is something like 10Gbs. It may be that modern numbers were higher, but possibly not much as you have to share the microwave spectrum with other uses. In a fibre you get the whole optical spectrum to yourself, so you can achieve much higher speeds. You can also run many fibres in the same ducting and increase bandwidth that way.

For backup / resiliency you just run more fibres via different routes.
If I recall correctly, they have been trending upwards for the the past 100 years (up 30 points but I doubt the average person was clinically retarded) and only relatively recently has started to show a slight decline. IQ tests from 100 years ago are still pretty valid, they use military tests I believe. Double check that.
