Pendulum swung both ways. Since the very beginning, Jobs was lying to Woz for free labor and ignoring his commercial success and professional input. Jobs' demeanor swung from blatantly incompetent to riotously enthusiastic, neither of which were patterns of behavior that improved Apple until his control was so diluted that he didn't matter anymore.

No complete account of Jobs can escape his horrible interpersonal reputation. Much as the modern account protests, his history was vitriol and struggle up to the very end. Heroize him at your own risk.

That's not an unpopular opinion. The BSM model is based on the assumption that stock prices are stochastic i.e. random walks. Monte Carlo simulations and binomial trees are the two common methods of deriving a solution to the BSM model.

From the transcript:

> But before you go looking for the oldest doctor you can find, you know, hold on for a second. Turns out that what David and his colleagues found in obstetrics may not apply to all fields of medicine. Let me give you an example. A few years ago, we looked at a similar question among internists who provide care to hospitalized patients. These doctors are called hospitalists and nowadays if you’re hospitalized with a general medical condition like pneumonia or heart failure, chances are you’ll be treated by one of these types of doctors. So, my colleagues and I looked at whether the age of a hospitalist physician was tied to outcomes among elderly patients. We looked at about 730,000 hospital admissions by nearly 19,000 physicians and we found that patients treated by older physicians had a higher rate of mortality within a month of their admission date — it’s called “30-day mortality” — compared to patients treated by younger physicians. More patients died under the watch of doctors who were age 60 or older. And interestingly, doctors who were just five years out from their training lost the fewest patients. That finding appears to contradict David’s data showing that obstetricians continued to improve even 30 years into their career.

Amazing idea
I suspect that Netflix actively doesn't want transparency on what's available and you'll like. Over a decade ago I used their API to build a CLI tool that just listed the top 100 movies they have sorted by their prediction on how much I'd like it. It was so useful and their predictions were really good. All gone. Instead the GUI shows you different images for the same show and no real way to sort by anything on your own anymore.
A) Csv isn't actually a standard, so there's no one universal way of dealing with it (we can get really close).

B) the keys and values are disjointed in csv as separate rows/columns, vs key:value

C) yes flat is better but when you need nested, nested is useful
My friend was privy to a situation where a mother tried to explain to her child that they couldn't afford a toy that the child wanted. The child's reaction? "look mom, there's an ATM over there, if you don't have enough money, just go and get some from there!"

The Chinese government set out to build EVs in 1994 - GM was already well advanced on their electric vehicle (the EV1, which launched in 1996). However, GM discontinued the EV1[1] in 1999, but the Chinese government stayed the course. No publicly listed American company can stay on-task on a project that will only bear fruit in 30 years; long-term projects are the first to be lose funding when there are macro-economic headwinds; see multiple Google X projects, and Google is/was one of the better companies at attempting long-term projects. Hell, even government agencies like NASA struggle with projects that span more than one presidential administration.

1. Incidentally, the Tesla co-founders were inspired to start Tesla by the EV1 - which is why referencing traditional automotive OEMs as "dinosaurs" is laughable
>For every light cycle, I can count at least 1 red light run, usually 2-5. Sometimes 10+.

To be clear, are you using the strict definition of "red light run" (ie. entering an intersection when the light is red), or the somewhat looser definition of "entering an intersection when it shows as green for the other direction"? I agree in the former case it's technically breaking the law, but in practice it's hard to spot unless your eyes are glued to the other direction's lights and/or you're very good at judging the time difference between when the car entered the intersection and when the lights turns green for you. It's not great, but also not too egregious. On the other hand if the light is green for you but you're still seeing cars enter the intersection then yeah, that's pretty bad but I very rarely see it happening, or maybe I'm not observant enough. People outright blowing through a red (ie. not near a signal change) is even rarer.

> Most of the feedback loops in employment — from salary payments to annual performance appraisals — were torturously long. So Coonradt proposed shortening them by introducing daily targets, points systems, and leaderboards. These conditioned reinforcers would transform work from a series of monthly slogs into daily status games, in which employees competed to fulfil the company’s goals.

My first thought was that working for such a company would be torture.

My second thought was that this basically describes Agile/Scrumm and has taken over the entire industry.
YC has always said they invest in founders not their products.
Hamas has been in support of all ceasefire resolution to date, Hamas has attended every truce talk to date. Israel, however has been in opposition to every ceasefire resolution to date, and has boycotted or walked away from most truce talks. It is true that Palestine has rejected a two-state solution in the past, however those deals contained what many considered a poison pill for Palestinians, it is disputed among international experts whether those deals were indeed acceptable for Palestinians. Meanwhile Israel has worked hard in making any future two-state solutions impossible. They fired thousands of missiles at Israel, however Israel has killed thousands of Palestinians. If you take issue with Palestinians you must have an order of magnitude greater issue with Israel.

Your parent is far from the only person to declare genocide. Many countries and international organizations have done so. The world highest court has ruled it is plausible that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Genocide is the highest crime there is. You should do everything in your power to stop it.

In 1993 Steven Spielberg released a very popular movie based on a true story about a factory owner in Germany who took issue with the fact that his government was using his products to commit genocide. Instead of simply following orders, he tried to save as many people as possible by hiring potential victims and making sure his products were faulty and unusable for the state doing the genocide. The protagonist in this movie was a hero. Most people in Germany however simply went to work and did what they were told. Millions of people died in that genocide. Let’s not repeat history.

Love that one!
So I am a 45 year old former JavaScript developer with 15 years experience. I burned out last year just before being laid off.

The challenge that I could not see is that I absolutely love writing applications in JavaScript (really TypeScript now). I loved the flexibility of the language with its lexical scope and functions as first class citizens.

What I had grown to hate was JavaScript at work. Most of my peers were afraid to do anything other than basic CRUD apps in exactly the same way with multiple, often unnecessary layers, and tremendous hand holding. This pattern of fear felt universal across multiple employers, a faulty attempt to mitigate risks by avoiding uncertainty. The things people stressed over most were problems of their own invention and the solutions they chose were always finding some additional tool so that they could further avoid the uncertainty around the problem. It is/was stupid and completely unnecessary. Worse, you couldn’t talk to people about it without invoking bizarre behavior, which is what people do when they are afraid and not able to see it.

Fortunately, I was able to transition to something else in a far more mature environment.
Right? What actually worries me is a select group of people controlling the definition of harmful.
I’m not sure what you are talking about. When did I say where I was in that venn?

I love that book. Parsing Techniques is even more detailed. It's still pretty hard. Easy would be a parse(grammar, input) function in the standard library. Earley algorithm is perfect for that. I wonder why no one's thought of it.

The fact you think Dennett is not eliminative about consciousness is all I need to know.
>Creation is the maximal object that could be created from God

Well, just the only one, but I suppose the maximal element of a set with one element is just that element, so yeah.

>Creation determines God, in that God is the minimal object that could create the Creation

Well, the only thing that could create Creation, but I suppose the minimal element of a set with one element is just that element, so yeah.

>Aquinas defo would've been unhappy with the "the deity can create any universe he wants, as long as it's black" part.

Hmm, I don't know what you mean by this. Spinoza isn't saying this, Spinoza is saying that God must have created only this universe, and everything that God does is necessary---there's nothing else he can do.

>if our universe only uses up two attributes

OK, so it's not that our universe is only uses two attributes, it's that we can only perceive things with respect to two attributes. There's only one possible universe, which is this one, and it's necessarily this one.

You need supplementation on a vegan diet for a reason. Entirely plant-based diets are not nutritionally complete. Even with proper supplementation, bioavailability is extremely low in plants compared to animal foods.

I went back and read a bunch of your older comments here. At first, I thought it was personal but the tone that you use with me is carried across many comments that you've made to others. These also tend to be heavily downvoted.

I went and looked you up a bit more, it seems you had an exit to Google and then worked there for a number of years. There is something about how you're communicating that seems brilliant, but at the same time, is missing some level of EQ.

Like you're super smart, but also have some sort of ego about it all. As if you feel a deep need to somehow prove yourself as being "better" than the people around you. Saying things like this: "as if you are encountering them the first time in the thread"... is honestly, just rude.

My goal here is to help educate and discuss things as best as I know how. If that isn't good enough for you, honestly, just keep it to yourself. Unlike you, I'm not putting my ego into it. If you have a personal problem with me or my background or what I'm saying, my suggestion would be to stick with the technicals and leave the ego at the door.

Feel free to say whatever you want, but I won't respond to you any further.

Just some clarification: IPerf 2 is different from the iperf3 found at https://github.com/esnet/iperf Each can be used to measure network performance, however, they DO NOT interoperate. They are completely independent implementations with different strengths, different options, and different capabilities. Both are under active development.

The current release of iperf 2 is 2.2.0 but 2.2.1 with bug fixes will be out soon.

They tested it on websites, containers, and python packages. So three things with source available and a total sample size of 15. This isn't anything new really, if you give it a piece of insecure python code or a terribly misconfigured Dockerfile and ask "is there a problem with this?" GPT-4 will obviously spot the vulnerability much of the time. LLM agents won't be spinning up Ghidra and locating a use after free vuln or something any time in the foreseeable future, let alone one it doesn't already have a blueprint for.

Edit: An LLM agent could also presumably navigate to the links within the CVE that contain the exact commit which patches a given vulnerability, some also contain links to PoC exploit code themselves, I forget if this is touched upon in the paper.

Agreed fully! Just got finished packaging up a few desktop apps for the first time on NixOS and it wasn't as bad as I expected.

My biggest issue with Nix (as is everyone's I hear) is the mediocre documentation. It takes a lot of wheel-spinning to get up-to-speed with PKGBUILD or makefile knowledge. A lot of that difficulty curve could be remediated with better, flake-focused packaging tutorials. Surely though, that too will be Coming Soon™.
