Real work as mid level executive (software + hardware development department) like 50-60h / week

It's very easy to filter out employees who think they get around with working less then 40h by judging their deliverables

It's generally halved, i.e. the display is 300dpi in mono mode, but 150dpi in color mode.
I would guess that their point is that CSV does have any official null-vs-empty-string differentiation mechanism.

I owned a Kobo Glo and Pocketbook Touch, and I preferred the Pocketbook, because it allows to install koreader as a application into the stock firmware, while on Kobo you need to quasi dual-boot your system into koreader or stock firmware via a menu.

In my experience koreader integrates much better with calibre and allows managing my library with a filestructure. So that is a requirement for me.

Also the stock firmware on the Pocketbook was able to deal with my huge epub archive, because it didn't require indexing the library on the device, which Kobo struggled with.

From that experience I would pick a Pocketbook over a Kobo.

But maybe I should give Kobo another look.
David P. Ellerman has a mathematical approach to accounting based on what he refers to as the Pacioli group. A provisional element of the Pacioli group looks like x//y where x and y are non-negative integers and we form equivalence classes based on x//y and u//v being equivalent if the cross sums x+v and y+u are equal. The group operation is x//y + u//v = (x+u)//(y+v) and the inverse of x//y is y//x . The identity element is 0//0. For more info see, for example, https://ellerman.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/DEB-Math-Mag...
You're purposefully writing #2 in a way to be more convoluted than it is, to prove your point, I guess?

Randomness in computation wins computer-science 'Nobel'
If OpenAI believes its use of copyrighted content is fair use - meaning explicitly unauthorized but permissible by the law - then it should feel confident in revealing what it is trained on.

I personally believe that if the guilded creatives say they are being harmed, well, then it becomes true in all the ways that matter. It's on OpenAI to persuade them that isn't the case, and if they are persuaded, then they are no longer being harmed. Harder to say for something like, "the programmers," who have had ample opportunities to organize and have so far chosen not to. So just because many programmers use OpenAI to aid in coding, doesn't mean that there aren't some programmers being harmed. It seems legit to me that the law should provide affordances for every Tom, Dick and Harry to become a plaintiff against OpenAI, and that OpenAI can't hide behind the veil of "trade secrets" or whatever, for a fact that will come up in discovery anyway.
What math do you know? You can quickly get started with PyTorch but usually people employed as AI/ML engineers have a heavy math background.

That said, it’s nothing too crazy. Most of deep learning is just linear algebra and optimization. For general data science, statistics and probability should be your main focus in my opinion.
She had a successful and undramatic judo career before MMA. She was well respected in that sport from what I can remember.

UFC isn't professional wrestling or anything but western combat sports have a tradition of a bit of theatricality and showmanship to them. Those are probably real elements of her personality to some extent, but choosing to visibly play them out was surely as much a marketing decision as a personal one.

By contrast judo tends to be skeptical of that sort of presentation, and as a judoka it wasn't very apparent in her interactions.
Well and lots that don’t even take the transit they manage. It’s just so infuriating.
What's actually happening is the prices get more and more accurate due to having more and more market information available.
It's the same space but most "solutions" in the space (like Lit Protocol) are actually custodial solutions parading as non-custodial. If you look closer at Lit Protocol, you will see that their nodes are unknown and unamed providers. Reading between the lines, it's just Lit hosting everything.

Yes, it has an integration for Apprise. You can also just use the Home Assistant mobile app to receive notifications on your device.
FWIW, we bought an arm to hold the kobo up while we’re reading (one of those smartphone holder things, they’re a dime a dozen) and a little device that clips onto the kobo. It comes with a remote, and you can turn the pages with it by making the kobo think you’ve touched the display with your finger. Best 50$ I ever spent (arm + clicker). Now I can turn pages while in bed without holding the kobo and with both hands under the cover. It’s the little things :)
The best new name I've seen is Xitter. Very fitting, IMO.
>Indeed, the dirty secret is that many accountants think of debit and credit as decrease and increase as well.

So how would you correctly express the parent's example in terms of debit/credit if debit/credit are synonymous with decrease/increase?:

>>"Increase cash" by borrowing money is "increasing liability".

"Crediting cash by borrowing money is crediting liability" would sound obviously incorrect to any accountant.
Randomization prevents the worst degenerate cases from being repeatable and thus exploitable. (By an attacker or self-own).

Using them is really in the applied CS rather than a theoretical CS domain. The problem can still happen, it just no longer happens consistently to the same customer or at the same time every day.

Eliminating the randomized solution was not on my radar so I’ve got some homework to do.

I always feel kinda bad about starting/continuing a 1 on 1 conversation on here because of the "don't cross-examine" thing in the guidelines.
Nothing, they are unguided and not targetable. They have almost 0 military value as far as targeting goes. They're "lucky" if they hit something outside of Gaza. You can see them being used for distraction/confusion (like on the morning of oct 7 in a mass firing), or as reprisals for IDF massacres (for deterrence, not working very well at that either), or for "we targeted grouping of soldiers" in Gaza envelope (usually unsuccessfully). Only thing they ever target successfully is the hearts and minds of Palestinians horrendously victimized by Israel, some of whom can feel that something is being done, I guess.

They're certainly not used to target any specific buildings in Israel. Only thing with targeting capability that Hamas ever repeatedly showed successfully used in videos is their home made Yassin-105 RPG shell and other RPGs. And these are used as short range defensive weapons, pretty much.
Indeed, examples from every angle are probably the one deficit of the existing documentation. There are a couple, such as the perf_demo described in the blog post. I’d like to add ones showing integration with

- epoll based event loop

- boost.asio based event loop

(Boost.interprocess and boost.asio are huge inspirations and are both used inside!)

As for traction: it’s tough! Have to get eyeballs; and then have to convey a sense of being worth one’s trust.

Thank you for your time.
OTOH I think regulators sometimes interpret more housing as "unruly" and try to block alternative routes.
Totally wrong. Infrastructure was not designed for population 30-50 years ago. The opposite, to much bad infrastructure was built for to few people.

There are lots of town the same amount of people but about 5x more infrastructure per person.

Even the places with growth have massivly overbuilt infrastructure. And low value housing ever further out is just not helping because the housing + transport cost equation doesn't add up for people.

Its simply bad infrastructure, badly planned with a totally disfunctional insentive structure.

The infrastructre isnt actually supported by the local taxes and raising taxes can often even in the best case only cover maintenance at best.

Look at the data from Stong Towns or Urban 3. If R1 zoneing (single family homes) is 80% of you land and each on is losing money from a tax perspective, its not suprising.

You have medium sized cities that have to maintaine roads that can reach half way accross the country. Indianapolis has to maintaine a road that reaches from it to Alaska.

Lots of good infrastructure like trains and walkable neiberhoods were systematically destroyed and replaced with less efficent infrastructure.

Any county with a great inner city somewhere is profiting massivly and that city is paying for all the infrastructure around it.

Even delapidated inner cities are better from a a tax efficency point of view then single family homes or a wallmarkt.

The poor neiberhoods are overtaxed and the richer ones are undertaxed by a large margin. Even if you assume the poor get the full service they should have, and they often don't.

But im sure the solution is to make the highway threw Austin wider ...
It works quickly, takes a few seconds to do an entire sync, happens automatically every 5 minutes and on app close, I never really think about it.

Surge pricing also means doldrums pricing. The knife cuts both ways.
> Here we tested this pre-registered hypothesis by examining how human participants collected resources in an online foraging task. On every trial, participants chose either to continue to collect rewards from a depleting patch of resources or to replenish the patch. Participants also completed a well-validated ADHD self-report screening assessment

Participants self-reported ADHD symptoms in a simple survey and the researchers tried to correlate those scores with various metrics in their ultra-simple game.

This is a good example of those questionable psychology studies where they come up with a contrived game and a survey, then try to find a correlation. Repeat experiments until one produces a p value below 0.05, then wrap a narrative around it and push it out to the science journalism reductionism machine.
I don’t get why you think QA should catch and presumably block a feature which the executives of the company were asking for. QA works for those same executives. There’s nothing rogue about the Microsoft example.

Thanks for the reminder. I completely forgot about that while trying to describe something metaphorically tangible, but alas.
Does he have any reason to believe that things will get better? If he already feels like giving up on life then telling him that he needs to work even harder will make him retreat and give up. If his life gets any worse he might kill himself. I know I would.
Yes, though as I try to explain in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39993176 the bit I was trying to get at is that for `pd.read_csv('csvbase://calpaterson/opcodes-6502')` there is no API surface at all. And you can do writes with `pd.DataFrame.to_csv`. I personally think that is fun.

PS: Thanks for all of your work over the years (decades?) on sqlalchemy. I'm sure you're not too surprised to learn that the lions share of code in csvbase is calls to SQLA core.
Having separate debit and credit amounts (instead of a single positive/negative number) serves another purpose as well: To track the total amount added or deducted from each account.

The problem is we have been saying there is going to be a crash for years. But I don't know if there will be until the supply problem is fixed in big cities.

Big dense towers are only going to go up so quick and until then, what is going to cause a crash? People are obviously paying these prices or they would be sitting vacant. It isn't like I can just pick up and say, I am not paying rent. I have to live somewhere. (Yes, I do fully realize that technically I could pickup and say exactly that, but realistically it's not a choice many would want to make if they have the choice).

I agree we need one, badly. But I just don't see it happening unfortunately.
From time to time I see this comment pop up.

I think either I'm crossing paths with you a lot, and am always stricken by so much trusting enthusiasm... - or there're many people who have the same dream you're mentioning, in which case, one of you should build this product :-)
I would argue laying off an insane chuck of the company was not predicable. Some? Yes happens all the time. What Elon did? No. But visa holders would probably be the first to go. But if you did manage to survive, no way you’re quitting in that job market and getting a new gig in a saturated market.
They are only able to do this price fixing because of the scarcity of housing right now. If much more housing is built, prices will drop.
Given what we’re seeing with drones nowadays, the martial arts with the most military applicability are probably hide and seek and hiding under the blanket.
Right, the value add should obviously remain locked in the hands of a few elite professionals and the rest of the world should have to beg and grovel at their feet to get anything done. Any attempts to simplify workflows should be looked at with scorn and an aura of arrogance.

Maybe you'd have more luck if you tried to address the specific problems with copyright law, rather than attack the massively larger, mostly unrelated and somewhat abstract and nebulous concept of "capitalism".

You could just as well argue that since these laws were created under democracy, that this is the unacceptable face of democracy.

We don't need to throw the baby out with the bathwater here. We can get a broad coalition of people from diverse backgrounds and beliefs to agree that the current copyright laws need to be changed, but tying that to extremist political stances works against that progress.
I'm going to suggest not reading books or taking courses. Things are moving so fast, the concepts of RAG as one example, that any coursework being prepared is going to be out of date quickly.

I do recommend reading academic papers coming out on AI/ML topics, however. There are some really interesting things happening in and around vector storage of documents that will be impactful for years to come.

Past that, build something cool that you are passionate about. I'm not sure your preference for size of company, but any startup that is likely to succeed will hire based on diverse work experience. Being who you are is the most important thing to remember when changing your course!
Deferring taxes does nothing to prevent wasteful over spending by local governments. For all of its faults, Prop 13 was effective in capping spending.

It's not that journalists can say whatever they want with no oversight. It's describing her own understanding & perception of her risk profile at a certain point in her career. A more meticulous editor might quibble about what is being implied by "she knew" there, but it's not like they're making shit up and trying to sell it to you here.
98% are people who can make http calls to OpenAI api.

2% actually work on OpenAI systems.
I agree with the GP here. Yes, you can do all this with just FFMPEG, but now you have to wade through all the docs, flags, values to craft your CLI args with a bit of trial and error. The value add here is a coherent front-end that abstracts away all the complexity and lets you cut right to what you want. Further, if it's something you do infrequently, or your workflow changes, you have to rerun the gaunlet of figuring out what flags/values you need. FFMPEG can do a ton, but most people just need to crunch the file size, transcode, and occasionally convert a snippet into a gif
Why is this flagged? Can we unflag it?
For what it's worth, my understanding is that it's generally not recommended to wash/dry different kinds of fabric together.
So it's like gif, I'll keep saying zee.
The first .NET Blazor "webassembly" was the .NET runtime ported to Webassembly, but where developer code would actually be the same type of IL (Microsoft's Intermediate Labguage) as .NET runs on Windows and Linux.

Unlike those platforms however, the IL was actually interpreted by the ported .NET runtime. Only the runtime was actually running as WASM.

To this day this is still the default, but now you can use a compiler to compile from IL to WASM, and then run full WASM code in the browser. This toolchain is a bit slower on build, but the code will run much faster.
The assumption is that javascript is bad and that the solution is to not fix it. asm.js was another example.
Corporations being "fictive person" (whatever that means) isn't a relevant factor. What does matter is that they are legal persons[1], and therefore can sue people under tort law. It's not hard to find defamation cases where corporations are the plaintiffs[2]. In fact corporations suing people for defamation is such a big issue that there's even legislation to prevent it from being abused[3]

It's 100% his decision to make as CEO and majority owner of SpaceX. You may not agree w/ the decision, and it may not be good for the network or the company, but the decision is still his.

If the Biden administration disagreed, they could have used executive power to force him to do whatever they wanted, he said as much publicly. The government has done this before in the past.
I think you're underselling Disney's budget and reach. Yes, it's probably technically smaller than the US nuclear program, but even just Disney is worth $200 billion USD, ignoring all other studios and etc. Movies are big money.
BPM is a matter of opinion unless it is printed on sheet music, just the same as key. I can declare the BPM to be half (for 4/4) or twice what you think it is. This sounds unenforceable, and rightly too.
Nice project! I see the tool can already handle polylines, so in theory you should be able to add support for Bézier curves and arcs by converting them to polylines. But of course, the devil is usually in the details. I hope it works out.
It's my perspective, as lamenting the loss of easter eggs and other fun quirks is easier to phrase as some kind of fun police cracking down on individuality in software, to further a scheme to trap everyone in an anodyne corporate hellhole. But in truth, the author who put the "gimme gimme gimme" easter egg in place was also the person who removed it. There is no "they" responsible (also, TINC)
This is odd! We can visually troubleshoot this, and see that the first characters following 1.##### are «Cnrtltos » and the final characters at the end of the (original) file are «!niauago». Taking [SPOILER] alternately the first of the first and the last of the last gives us C, o, n, g, r, a, t, u, l, a, t, i, o, n, s, !. If there is an extraneous character inserted at the end, e.g. a newline, the transformation should be spoiled and illegible: C, newline, n, o, r, g, t, a, l, u, t, a, o, i, s, n, space, !.
On most (all?) kobos, you can also upgrade the storage to whatever you want because it’s a microsd card slotted into the board. Just copy the system partition over to the new sd, expand, done. Mind you, I never needed to do it because 4 or 8GB is a ton of ebooks. I’ll probably never need that much space anyway. But if you’re reading larger files, might be handy.

It's loading untrusted python different from loading untrusted dll/so? Unless your use some dedicated sandbox, I think they're equally insecure. I guess a bigger problem with native plugins is that they're not (usually) platform independent.
Students Are Likely Writing Papers with AI
Kobo enthusiast, and I'm excited to see that they are the first to market among the Amazon/B&N/Kobo crowd to get a color e-reader to market.

I don't see myself getting one, though, at least not immediately. I'm perfectly happy with my Kobo Sage. While I'd like to one day have a color e-ink device, the color reproduction just isn't good enough for my use case. Reading comics on my AMOLED tablet is a joy, and I don't see e-ink getting to that level for at least another couple years.

Plus, I don't want to take the hit of worse PPI for B&W text just so I can have a book cover or some highlighted text in color.
