A recent ex-googler here: quality of Google3 in general is pretty good, but the LLM training bits are so abysmal that I know people who have resigned instead of working on it. And it’s also extra slow because getting a couple local GPUs is not really an option. So you’re forced to “develop in Colab” which works for some things and not for others and in general sucks ass if you’re working on anything substantial. For anything more substantial you’ll be launching stuff on some resource pool, waiting for like 10-15 minutes until it starts (much longer for large models), and then trying to divine why it failed from voluminous and sometimes indecipherable crash logs which also hang your browser when cluster UI tries to load them.

Rumors of Google’s AI code superiority are vastly overblown in 2024. I’m currently at another major AI lab, and the code here can actually be understood and worked on, which I consider to be a massive advantage.
Thanks for looking into it more. I was able to reproduce. We will get that fixed ASAP

Watching a heartrate monitor sometimes has the reserve-progress-bar effect. You know the deal. You realize the pump is on a hightened frequency, so you see what your smart watch says. And the more you watch it, the more anxious you get, so the rate stays more or less high.
> I wonder how often the missile is in alert status?

In 1972-74 when I was a Minuteman I launch officer (DMCCC) our 10 missiles were /always/ on alert. You would expect to see 10 green "Strategic Alert" lights across the crew commander's (MCCC's) console unless something was wrong (requiring maintenance or a brief calibration).

IIRC we were in a perpetual state of DEFCON 4 in those days.
>You and I both know congress won’t be able to do anything

Why is this relevant? This is like complaining that an alarm feature doesn't exist when it's not clear who would actually do anything if the alarm ever went off.
"until I tweaked - IDK, something."

omg so much this.

I got an instance going in a truenas core jail, freebsd and using freebsd java not a linux vm or linux abi compatibility. had to make my own rc script.

Then had to mess with the disk & ram settings to get it to run for more than a day. But the settings are not actually explained at all and whatever they do, they definitely don't do what their names and worthless tooltips say they do.

It seems to be running now indefinitely without killing either itself or the host, in full p2p mode, but I really have no idea why it's working, or really for sur if it actually is fully. I changed "idk, something"

And I don't use it for search myself so far. Maybe some day but for now I'm paying for kagi.

I just like the idea and want it to be a thing, and it seemed a little less "invite a world of shit and attention onto my ip" than running say a tor exit or something. Maybe only a bit less but I'll see how it goes and react if I need to.
haha thanks. And I documented it all in the blog post I wrote way back when [1] there really isn't any question about timeline or if it was inspired.

At the end of the day, it was a silly project I built and I got 20k users! It didn't feel great to be copied and have them get 15x more traction. Whatever the thoughts are around that... the reason I posted today was the relevancy to the parent extension because within weeks they tried to (or did) sell the extension's user base (presumably to bad actors). I had no idea how shady the extension world was before this, and I'm much more conservative about which ones I'll install now.

It must be being struck by the "brilliant" idea, right? The first one is too weird for me to contemplate. In either case, I don't judge people too much for this because I think it signals compliance with corporate norms. My theory is that anyone that says "Leader" on their LinkedIn title is actually saying "I'm not going to point out the emperor has no clothes as long as I'm salaried and allowed to give talks."

Wow, if I was the leader of this person's company I would immediately terminate them.

It is so toxic to work with people who are this entitled. Getting this upset over a mandatory meeting? What a nightmare. You know this is just the tip of the iceberg for their bad behavior if they are the type to publish a seething screed over something so banal.

I don't like four hour meetings either. But give me a break. Running companies is hard, keeping teams aligned is hard. Sometimes keeping things going requires doing things that we don't like. That's just called being an adult.

You say that as if it's a bad thing.

Teflon should have never, ever ever have been released for use in pans. The documentation on it is 100% correct, it is completely inert, completely safe, completely OK... as long as it doesn't exceed a specific temperature.

Once that temperature is breached, the coating changes chemically. It off-gasses (and, for example, killing any canary near the kitchen). The teflon coating is no longer safe, that same chemical change has modified its chemical structure. And at that point, cooking on it means your food is now laden with those chemicals, and any flake of teflon you ingest is dangerous as well.

This is why using teflon in pans is just insane. The approval process presumed that no one would let a pan get too hot. What?! As if no one might get distracted by an emergency with a child, a phone ringing, someone coming to the door, and BAM!, the pan > 500F for a minute, and becomes death.

But conversely, things such as bread makers, and popcorn makers are sensible uses for teflon! They have internal thermostats, and often cannot easily even get to 500F. They won't cause this chemical change, and so are good and safe for this purpose.

Of course, I don't blame you for disliking teflon. I think it was absurd that it was approved for use in normal frying pans.

Sign of the worldwide dominance of English, sadly. Hepburn is utter nonsense if your native language is e.g. German or Irish - but it's popular with English monoglots who believe that their peculiar use of the Latin alphabet is somehow objectively correct, and they seem to be in ascendence these days.
So which countries use the whilelist approach?

Okay, if that's how they're selling Tailwind, I can understand why some developers are confused.

I assume they do it because they don't want to promote a specific framework on their homepage.

Go to the section "Worried about duplication? Don’t be." Does the code there look more maintainable to you? Because that's how you should be writing any moderately complex html anyways.
Kind of reminds me of a unikernel.
I imagine they assume a reader knows what the Hepburn and Kunrei-siki are.
Early on, my business relied heavily on Zapier in 2015 and they were just as big as Airplane at that point. If they sold the company and shut it down, I would swear never to do business with the parent company again. Yes I could migrate to something else or just code it if that were to happen, but that is a fuck over.
Meetings are hard because prople are in different states at all times (clients may not know what they want, teams may not know enough about hiw ti solve certain problems, joe may be lazy and hungry one day...). Human things make meetings annoying so I agree with your sentiment that this may not solve our problems.

However. "meetings rely on visuals sometimes instead of just spoken words" doesn't feel like a fundamental issue that breaks this thing. It just sounds like a feature request.
This is really cool! I’ve been looking for something to process local government meeting recordings put online to look for actionable information for following up with muckrock.com FOIA requests to dig deeper. Thanks for sharing.
I think you have to be very immature and foolish to want to be a leader (I get that in some cases you may feel it's your duty or you have no choice, but that's different from wanting it). Leadership is a huge burden.

> They can give detailed testimony

The incident report can be given this without naming the individual. Technician#2512....

And thusly I agree with your last sentence - it's not just one guy having the problem. There was a chain of failures. If someone forgot to put the plugs back, who was performing the inspection that that confirmed the plug was there? Who is the safety engineer that signs "this plane is fit to fly".

America, esp Senators, like scapegoats. Individuals we can pin the blame on and say "You screwed up! You're fired!" okay, problem solved! I fixed it!

All of Boeing has HUGE problems and naming an individual isn't going to fix it. US Gov needs to go in and review all the steps in details. What are the failurem modes? Between this and the Max, Boeing can't be trusted with its own internal processes anymore.

1996 to 2000, I was at 3 different companies. Then the company I joined in 2000, I was at for 5 years. Then a smattering of small companies and then two large companies.

These days people hop from job to job for more TC. For me it was about interesting projects (not always profitable).
If you built a mutable bittorrent layer yourself (like ipfs but better), then why not make it its own separate thing?

If that's what you've managed to pull off, that's like a way bigger deal than a p2p gitforge (not that that isn't super cool in itself)

I guess architecturally why does it need to be coupled to git and a git forge?
It’s the other way around. The government currently officially uses “Sinzyuku”

The entire system is too complicated, and the CGM too variable in accuracy, for such calibration to work in the way I think you are suggesting.

Each time the CGM is applied, the situation is different because of the exact position and various other factors. And the CGM is not 100% consistent.

You do/can calibrate the CGM as needed. For example, when the CGM first activates, standard practice is to check with a fingerprick to see how accurate the CGM is this time and (sometimes) calibrate. (As noted in other comments, the CGM and fingerprick are not detecting exactly the same thing.)

And the next time you apply the CGM (we use a Dexcom G6, which is changed every 10 days), any previous calibration is irrelevant. There's a lot of variability and many factors that can affect results (exact location, scar tissue from previous CGM application, recent exercise, a recent hot shower, etc.)

(I didn't explain that well, but hopefully you get the idea.)
Back upstream to the source of the problem, too much rework was already being required by the time the components got to the Boeing assembly plant (i.e. the Spirit techs onsite doing repairs).

In an environment where process exceptions are the norm, people begin to deprioritize handling exceptions properly. Everything can't be critical or emergency all the time.

And once that deprioritization happens, safety critical process exceptions begin being treated like all other exceptions. Because they're all exceptions, and there are so many.

And eventually normalization of out of bounds situations via repeated team exposure leads to catastrophe.

NASA lost two shuttles via the same organizational problem.
I think the closest analog to this is digital services getting worse rather than more expensive. For example, recently rather than increasing the price of Amazon Prime Video, the price has remained the same, but the product is worse (now has ads).

That said, I don’t think this bill would target something like that, as it clearly discusses the “size” and “amount” of a product.

Epic Games was willing to hurt their iOS users by knowingly, wilfully, and strategically breaching Apple's developer agreement in a way they knew would result in Fortnite being removed from the store. Then they manipulated their customers into directing their anger towards Apple even though it was Epic's wilful actions were to blame.

I'd be a little emotional too.
Came here to say exactly this, the article is written maddeningly.

English readers will more naturally expect the "before" to come first in a sentence, and then the "after", but in the article the "before" consistently comes at the end of sentences.

The government officially used the Kunrei-shiki romanization rules for decades (apparently, though this is the first time I've ever heard of it), but is soon changing to using the Hepburn romanization rules [which correspond to nearly 100% of romanized Japanese terms that anybody would ever have seen in the wild].

The "diagram" in the article doesn't help English-speaking audiences at all, so it's out of place in this article. It seems to have been lifted directly from some other source, and what's more it's kind of a badly-designed diagram to begin with: the header reads something like "change in romanization system", each of the green background terms are names, and under it on the left is that name romanized under the old system and on the right is under the new system... but the names of the systems are in the first data row instead of in the header row / a second header row. Just.. so confusing.

In case it's not clear, all of these are "filenames" contained within the .well-known "directory". The Wikipedia link below [1] has more examples of Well-Known URIs being used already.

First, whoever decided on .well-known starting with a . (making it normally a hidden directory) was a complete moron. I don't care what the pedantic reasoning was, it was idiotic. It's publicly accessible, yet hidden from admins unless they're looking for it?? It's like a security leak waiting to happen.

Secondly, I don't think I've ever seen a more chaotic list of naming conventions in my life:

* Non-descriptive names or acronyms: coap, core, posh, ni, dots.

(You have to admire that last one in terms of just screwing with admins.)

* Multiple names with dashes: stun-key, reload-config, apple-app-site-association

* Multiple names without: nodeinfo, openpgpkey

* Multiple names with dots: com.apple.remotemanagement

(I love how Apple can't decide).

* Names with extensions: security.txt, ai-plugin.json, host-meta.json

* Names that have apparently optional extensions: host-meta

* Subdirectories: autoconfig/mail

It's complete anarchy. Does the W3C actually want anyone to maintain this chaos? It must be the least well thought out "specification" that's ever been inflicted on the world.

Alas, I too have a grey beard. I too, was there. I saw the birth of Fox News and various other Murdoch Successes.

It seems two things are being conflated:
- That newspapers needed money to succeed
- That Truth sells

Matter of fact Fox’s success, and the Fox News Effect, challenged my assumptions on how Facts sell and what the information markets operate.

Market economics and consolidation has been a larger factor in how information flows than Truth or facts itself.

From a purely economic view - as the economy and firm profits grow, media firms become takeover targets. You get firms which own newspapers, or Media empires that have soft/political power.

This results in compromised editorial boards.

How something is shared, its appeals to emotions or identity. These matter more. Regional newspapers were the ones left to do important work, but they cant compete with the conglomerates and eventually get bought.

That said - Independent media firms are carving a niche out on YouTube, where they can pursue editorial independence. So journalists are still fighting the fight.

Do note - people who care about facts today, still get them. They just pay for research reports, market reports and studies.
I agree. I should probably clarify that I only developed this urge after getting sick of seeing people get treated poorly. But I've avoided it thus far despite a few offers because almost every manager who serves as what I've heard called an "umbrella" gets terribly burned out and it affects their personal lives.

PS: One of the people on my first team after graduating has been on stress-related leave for months, and I saw "award-winning leadership" watch it happen and only start caring once it became a legal risk.
You are telling me that I pay more and I only get smaller stuff? That is horrible... They are stealing silicon from our products...
I agree, but it would be a total quagmire if they allowed it to extend to digital services and other non-traditional uses of the term. Seems like it would have to relate to buying typical consumer commodity goods only or things would get weird.
