Yeah, that's basically how I saw it (someone apparently reposted the YouTube short on another website.) I was actually intrigued enough to further look into it, and have no regrets about having done so.
So Milano and Verona are products in the Pepperidge Farm brand?

I was not familiar with the brand or their product naming
Definitely. It applies to multiple levels as well. The massive adoption of banking cards created the expectation that you use one, which then caused cash to not be universally accepted everywhere anymore. Now it's expected that you use an Android or iOS app for said bank. Next up, your banking app expects you to have specific AR smart glasses to use it properly.

It's also an issue with "e-Government" platforms in some European countries. There's this default expectation that you want to use it, which has in some cases made certain tasks more difficult for those whom prefer using regular paper forms. The next layer is those platforms requiring Android/iOS apps, which could very well mean that being able to use healthcare or filing your taxes indirectly requires either a Google or Apple account, and agreeing to their agreements.
I haven't actually tried it out, but have done a bit of research in the name of scoping a competing product, and my verdict is that it's probably too immature to be worth production usage. It also makes the design decision to delegate most of the actual hard work (the type checking) to the type checker of Erg, a strongly typed superset of Python, which leaves a lot of decisions and agency out of the purview of Pylyzer itself. There will always be limitations that can only be resolved upstream.

Granted, maybe there's value in this just being a wrapper, and it's best to just deduplicate the work. However, it just sits a little wrong to me that it's not type checking Python, it's doing a transpilation step of sorts and type checking that.

Not everywhere though. The life of a doctor is much better in Costa Rica, even in public institutions. The extra time is paid. And the syndicates are strong (which has worked well)

The doctors in Nicaragua, the neighboring country, is as described in your comment, except the economy of the whole country is in shambles, and they also have to "voluntarily" participate in "government" political activities. Oh, and since the country is poor there are no immigrants waiting in line to fulfill those positions.

Alternatively Duolingo sells a casual memory game that differentiate by giving the illusion of productivity. And Masterclass sells attention and status to a class of people who are already attention-oriented by stroking their egos. I’m not saying this hot take is necessarily true, but the market isn’t always categorized by what we intuitively think. And realizing that can sometimes give you a massive benefit, simply by applying existing and effective techniques (in these cases gamification and people-oriented success storytelling, respectively) from a domain your competitors don't understand or care about.
Notably, even in construction/industrial settings, there are typically broad exemptions for 'low voltage' wiring[0], typically defined as < 50V or < 48V, justified because there is no/little 'hazard' associated with voltage that low. To wit you can, for instance, just duct tape/zip tie some flexible wire/cabling to the wall if it is only carrying e.g. a 5V power to a sensor, some LEDs, or other equipment. Which I have done and passed fire marshal inspection on multiple occasions in multiple jurisdictions[1].

The regs (and by extension a fire marshal) would probably be unhappy about the extension cord, but a. 'everyone does it'[2], b. 'surge protecting' cords are generally exempt (at least in my jurisdictions), and c. trivially rectified by hard wiring one or both ends of the extension cord to hard wire or create a 'wire + receptacle'.

[0]Current limitations, watt-hr limitations, etc. may apply in this case.

[1]Obligatory disclaimer: not advice, follow your local regulations, etc.

[2]The response would be a 'please fix this' and not fines or worse.
Decades of Iranian proxies killing Israelis?
I am familiar with the history. The problematic gaps in medical research are well-known even within the government communities with budget for biomedical research. Ironically, the US military has ended up funding, despite their more limited budget and no real mandate, basic medical research into common non-military diseases like multiple sclerosis that NIH/NSF ignore but have obvious ROI for reducing population-scale medical costs (which affects the military but is outside the scope of its mission). Similarly, the rise of privately funded foundations to fill persistent odd gaps in government-funded biomedical research are well-documented.

The large increase in non-traditional funding orgs for biomedical research over the last several decades has been driven by a widespread perception that the traditional government funding has been increasingly captured by a academic cliques with low ROI priorities.

I've worked in government science orgs, the capture of funding control by ideological academic cliques is very common. It has unfortunately infested the biomedical research funding, which reduces realized ROI from the money allocated to those orgs. In the US government, some of the best medical R&D ROI dollar-for-dollar right now is found in the military, but that really shouldn't be their job outside of traditional areas like trauma medicine.

If businesses operated the way they want...they would nit be businesses, they would be cartels....or governments!

Businesses operate like the customers want unless the govt tells them to do otherwise. In this case the paying customer is an insurance company who could care less if the medical device was deprecated, or not, after its expected value was delivered
Same in Sweden, it is rare to meet a Swedish doctor at the 'vårdcentral' (group practice). In my infrequent visits with one of my children I've met doctors from Iran, from Iraq, from Germany and from the Netherlands but not from Sweden. Nurses tend to come from Sweden. What seems to happen is that Swedish doctors find work in e.g. Norway where the pay is a lot higher while the working environment is less stressful. That in itself is also a bit of an oddity since Swedish doctors don't see as many patients per day as those in e.g. the Netherlands do.
Given that it's shared memory based, it seems like there has to be some degree of trust that the participants are well behaved. What do you mean by a malformed message, though? If you're talking about the payload of the message, that seems like a matter of the message scheme you're using. If you're talking about correctness of the IPC protocol itself, integrity checking is unfortunately at odds with latency.
Educating doctors is really expensive. It would really suck to invest all that money in someone (or in yourself) just for them to fail a final test or whatever.

For what it's worth, I do agree we should train more doctors, but I think it's a complicated problem.
Timing: if you want everything to arrive around the same time, you launch the missiles later; and this is in fact what happened.

Maybe because I am in research, but the middle parts of research talks are talking about their own research. If you don’t know that material enough to talk about it in detail impromptu then you have no business giving talks about that topic.

Intros and ends though I agree require careful thought to appeal to the right audience and give the right message.

So surprised I had to scroll too far for this reply. I actually work for one of the major US carriers. My job is literally to figure out how to apply the technical capabilities of 5G to solve business problems. NONE of the US carriers have figured out how to actually deliver network slicing beyond, say, reserving capacity for first responders. And, as you say, it’s about capacity, not speed per se. We want to make sure that, say, an AGV can offload kinematics to the MEC and navigate in real time in dynamic environments. The poster child for network slicing is the surgeon doing telesurgery over a 5G network (But that’s likely to remain a poster child). We’re figuring out how to provide network slices for autonomous vehicles, mobile teleoperation, etc., in all use cases we’re examining it because something BAD could happen absent guaranteed capacity. I have never ever heard anyone talk about using network slicing for QoS for consumer apps.
The problem you describe is one of a lack of ownership. I'm at a company that has a quite small engineering team, but other departments have their own services (dashboards that read from our database, marketing CRM, etc) which means any change at all to any database table requires bringing together multiple departments to make sure nobody gets upset by the change.

It's easier to have a single owner at a smaller scale (something we should do) but even at a company with a large engineering team, there needs to be someone whose responsibility is to manage dependencies. Otherwise, it falls back to design by committee, and that's how you end up in your situation: nobody actually knows how anything works, and there is literally no way to find out.
From experience this happens just as often inside monoliths.

It's a symptom of over-engineering and building for the future rather than anything inherent to microservices. Java had a whole decade of being obsessed with design patterns e.g Facade, Decorator that resulted in the same spaghetti architecture.
I think you're making massive assumptions on how people use computers these days.

Also, iPhones don't have to run anything like the same software, no Electron, no Chrome etc....
>For example, Daimler's Smart car brand alone posted over 4 billion Euros in losses. They could have gone to space with that money.

Those are private losses, meaning they are subsidized by Mercedes themselves. Also Smart is as much a German Brand as it is a Chinese brand. Geely lost exactly the same money Mercedes did.

Additionally you are not counting the losses correctly, even if smart looses money, selling cheap low emissions often electric city cars is hugely beneficial to Mercedes, due to European car regulations.

>Not just in Germany either, but France and Italy, they're all pushing crazy money in the local auto industry for the sake of maintaining local jobs, with little else to show for.

No. They are selling cars, like any healthy industry would do. I don't get what you think automobile companies could accomplish, besides producing cars for people to use and employing people to make them. The Chinese are doing exactly the same and get the same benefits.

>By comparison, the Chinese taxpayer got a really good deal here.

They got a productive car industry. Like it exists in France or Germany.

Can we just all converge on Parquet + Arrow and call it a day please? Too much effort being put into 1..N ways to solve a problem that would be better put towards a single standard.

We work with Parquet + Arrow every day at $DAYJOB in a ML and Big Data context and it's been great. We don't even think we're using it to its fullest potential, but it's never been the bottleneck for us.

In the idealized solution that I would build/provide, I'd already be meeting the needs of many individuals with "just" one top-of-the-line product. The only issue, and the need for quotes, is because this no-compromise product that would likely be competitive with the best in the industry, would also be quite expensive.

This, fortunately or not, kind of circles back to the "make more expensive products" aspect.
Sequoia Capital - REMOTE (but must be US based and enrolled in a college/university)

I'm looking for a software engineering intern for the summer at Sequoia!

Here's a tl;dr:

- It's paid.

- It's full-time.

- It's remote.

- The work will be based around a discrete project that we will select alongside the intern to give them something to add to their CV rather than just "I worked at a place."

- The position is on my team of experienced folks who will help appreciably level up the intern's skills while also exposing them to a lot of interesting tech and people.

- Candidates must be U.S.-based and currently enrolled in an institution of higher learning (i.e., college or university, not a bootcamp, sorry! We're working on options for those folks soon).

My team works on a wide range of projects, from simple integrations to full on AI pipelines and everything in between, so the project possibilities are wide. If that sounds interesting, please send me an email at jmcanally@sequoiacap.com with "Intern" in the subject. In the body of the email, include a short paragraph about yourself and your studies, a list of any project ideas you might have, and any links we might find interesting (e.g., GitHub, blog, social media, etc.). If you have a resume/CV, please attach that as well.

(Side note: please do not use an LLM to compose this email. We want to talk to you not a machine! )

I'll be accepting applications of interest through Friday April 19. Once you reach out, I'll be in touch with next steps and a very short technical assessment. The assessment will be 3 questions and should take much less than an hour to complete.

I look forward to hearing from you! If you have any questions, please feel free to email me or leave a comment here. We're really looking for a wide set of applicants from all backgrounds, schools, and even programs of study (assuming you can pass the assessment!), so please share at will!
LOL indeed:

Sounds like Texas has rather a lot of "reoccurring problems". More than California, in fact.
What's wrong with being extremely permissive? I'd argue that's a strength of the python ecosystem. It's true that very dense api:s are difficult to type, but I wouldn't say they're typically poorly designed because of it.
Thank you for this. Very helpful.
Not familiar with similar libraries so not sure how this stacks up. But a few things that I see as helpful improvements would be:
1. using templating engine like jinja to allow for more flexibility in customizing prompts
2. sending multiple rows per request. If I want to do sentiment classification, I may have a fairly large bit of text explaining exactly what I want the classifier to do. If I include that instruction along with every individual sentence I want to classify, I'm wasting a lot of tokens. Instead I'd rather send the instructions along with 100 sentences and ask it to classify each one. This sort of functionality would work well with what you're trying to accomplish using dataframes.
My life experience showed me that allowing more people in lead to less capable people in. Less capable students graduate as worse doctors. And doctors who came from more wealthy families usually do much better, regardless of their prowess. I won't go into details, it is unnecessary.

The end result is that the health practice degrades overall, and social inequality strenghtens. I think nobody is happy with the former reason.
It's not that RCS doesn't work that way.

RCS support is actually embedded in android (albeit as a closed source rcsprovider implementation). They just won't actually open up the API (That they expose to other orgs that pay them enough like samsung for their apps).

There is no good technical reason why the RCS API needs to restrict itself to only pre-authorised applications vs making RCS access a permission for the user to approve.
The rules specify equipment must be installed in a manner per its listing, and there are at least four nationwide codes that cover the attachment of solar panels. In California I would guess there are more, stricter codes (e.g. seismic).

Even if you managed to make the panels movable, this would fail 690 of the NEC:

690.31 Wiring Methods
(A) Wiring Systems
All raceway and cable wiring methods included in this Code, other wiring systems and fittings specifically listed for use in PV arrays, and wiring as part of a listed system shall be permitted. Where wiring devices with integral enclosures are used, sufficient length of cable shall be provided to facilitate replacement.
Where PV source and output circuits operating at voltages greater than 30 volts are installed in readily accessible locations, circuit conductors shall be guarded or installed in Type MC cable or in raceway. The ampacity of 105°C (221°F) and 125°C (257°F) conductors shall be permitted to be determined by Table 690.31(A)(b). For ambient temperatures greater than 30°C (86°F), the ampacities of these conductors shall be corrected in accordance with Table 690.31(A)(a).0
David (and a lot of such art) was work for hire, so the artist would have no IP rights then or now.
I was comparing it with Parquet, which is much more complex, but has features that help you access the data in less than O(n), like row groups and pages.
>Why are we not using "Dominate" in the headlines when we do it?

Because for a western car manufacturer 3 Billion is barely enough to get them to care to do something. Surely it isn't enough to make them dominate anything.

Thank you for the insight!!
Warning bells are going off in the international community about an imminent attack by Iran on Israel. If it comes, it won’t come be because Iran was unprovoked, as Israel has been provoking Iran into an attack for the last three years by its regular bombing of Iranian bases in Syria, which so far has not worked. Seemingly to increase the provocation, In the first week of April, Israel bombed Iran’s embassy in Damascus, which is a clear violation of diplomatic immunity and which no nation does including in wartime out of respect to other nation’s diplomatic missions.

This bombing provocation went even further than violating embassy sovereignty by Israel killing several of Iran’s high ranking military officers which were meeting in an embassy annex at the time. Israel could not have known
about this meeting without high level penetration of Iranian and Syrian governments by Israeli spies. So, just as the war on Hamas was started by inviting the attack by the IDF pulling out most of its soldiers from Southern Israel and leaving it wide open and vulnerable, Israel is apparently
itching for a fight with Iran by provoking it. In short, if war comes, Israel will be just as responsible for it as Iran.

No, it doesn't.

If you've ever attempted to extract a meaningful few-shot response to a non-trivial coding question from an LLM, this shouldn't be a surprise.

That said, I have worked with actual humans in the industry who perform this badly, and that is still a significant achievement for a software program.

The extension cords mentioned are all interior-to-interior. There is no magickal difference between an extension-cord wire and a like-gauge Romex wire. The former bends easier.

The only outdoor wiring mentioned is 48V.
We do not need all doctors to be uber doctors.

We need a range of doctors, who range in price according to quality.

That way for simple stuff, which anyone can get right, we go to a cheap, reasonable doctor.

A similar example would be if we only had uber software engineers. Each one had to have a PhD. There were no cheap and okay developers who could do say web-sites but not write a programming language from scratch.
The answer is ideally that you have a presentation deck and a linked article/blog but that's asking a lot of presenters who don't have the article/blog published somewhere anyway.

I built an Alexa skill at work. It's mostly a ton of edge cases and prompt variations you have to handle. Alexa also has a very short time out, something like 8 seconds, so your skill will time out very easily. Handling state is a whole other fiasco.

Some things are out my control, like if Alexa picks up the skill invocation phrase or parses the response correctly.

I suspect LLMs will help with this. Alexa is already integrating LLMs with their newer skill kits.
