I can not afford a place in Manhattan. In order for me to have a home, I had to be willing to live far away from there and do what I can to develop my marketable skills to hold a good job. Now, I am not at all suggesting that currently homeless folks have the same talents and opportunities as myself and have to pull themselves up by the bootstraps. Yet, they also have to be willing to move to an affordable area, address their mental health and substance abuse problems and contribute as much as they can to their own upkeep - maybe do some basic agricultural work like pulling out weeds, maybe help cook meals for themselves and others in the same situation from provided ingredients.

Nobody is getting me a place to stay in most expensive area of a big city just because I can't afford an apartment there. If my close friend or relative fell on hard times, I might be willing to help them a bit, but only if they take care of their problems and make an effort to partially support themselves to whatever degree they are able to. There is no way I am helping strangers more than my own family.

As for having nowhere to go, US is big and sparse enough to give people homesteads to live off the land if that's what they choose to do. And in fact, supporting oneself with fishing/hunting/gathering seems to be common in Alaska and I have no disagreement with people who support themselves this way, whatever you feel is your best option. But public spaces in big cities are there for specific public uses, not homesteading.

> And in fact they mostly think we're losers for wasting our time doing it

True, this happens enough places to be a thing.

Of the people who think the software "little people" are losers, I think there's at least two versions:

* They think the work is skilled, and that the worker has valuable expertise, and is worth listening to. Even though they still think the person is a loser for being a salaried commodity rather than a "smartest guy in the room" or "leader", like them, who's a real player with the big rewards.

* They think software work is low-skilled grunt, the workers are a temporary evil, are uppity about compensation and loyalty (this is 'improving' recently) and don't know their place, and their input has no value. And of course software workers are losers in the world of business, because they don't operate and profit personally like real players do.

The latter is a worse situation to be in. :)
This is the problem that often gets overlooked in these "tech is bad" discussions. It's not the tech itself. It's not the concept of social media.

The problem is when every aspect of tech is corrupted to maximize ad impressions (and this goes beyond social media - the vast majority of consumer technology is chasing "engagement").

Regulating away this disgrace of a business model and tech will become much more sane & safe, including for children.
I say swapped, but actually I'm dual running them and moving stuff over incrementally to see how it works / feels etc. I'd say it's worth a look but it's pricey which is the downside.
The fact that you parse an entire subtree before you know the kind of its parent is exactly what makes it bottom-up. Pratt is certainly easy to integrate into an otherwise-top-down parser, because you can enter it from the top and it can enter its "leaves" from the top, but internally it is absolutely bottom-up, and you can generalize this to any recursive ascent parser.

To make this more explicit:

The first thing a Pratt parser does before entering the loop is based on the lookahead token's "nud." This corresponds to an LR automaton in its initial state shifting that token and advancing into the leaf-most rule(s). The "nud" typically switches back to top-down internally, where pure bottom-up would not, but the choice of "nud" is necessarily made in a bottom-up way.

Once "nud" returns, or the LR automaton reduces back to the initial state, the next thing it does is based on the operator token's "led." This corresponds to the LR automaton shifting that token and advancing into the parent rule determined by the operator. This resolution is just as "eager" in LR, where it is represented by the new state containing only items from the chosen rule. This is the hallmark of bottom-up parsing: as you progress through the children, you narrow down the possibilities for the parent.

Finally, note that none of this has anything to do with the use of function calls vs a table of integers and explicit stack. Both top-down and bottom-up parsers can be implemented using either recursion or a table and stack.

The only thing that annoys me about VS code is that Microsoft decided to call it visual studio, which means if I search for help for a problem with actual visual studio I end up with vscode suggestions. Id like to know why ms thought this was a good idea.

Again, the case (and I) am arguing in agreement with you.

The point being debated is not about saying homeless can do as they please. It's very specifically arguing you need to give the homeless some place where they can camp out or other wise live.

If you had a city that designated all areas under bridges as legal for homeless occupation, then yes those cities would be allowed to remove the homeless from other areas.

The entire point of this case boils down to "do homeless people have a right to exist" not "can homeless people sleep on my kids playground if they want". The point being argued that cities have some obligation to take care of their homeless populations and if they refuse to, then they are essentially giving up control of their public spaces. Want a nice downtown? Great, give the homeless sleeping on the streets there some place else to go and yes you can force them to leave.
I'm pretty sure there were already in the 19th century people, like Helmholtz, Riemann etc. who saw themselves as Kantians, but nevertheless developed many of the techniques that later made GR possible (while acknowledging that they challenge Kant's own views) while preserving the core of Kant's theory. See my response above.
I don’t quite understand Tesla’s insistence on vision-only. I don’t believe vision-only “FSD” will ever be good enough for mass adoption – even if it performs at human-level. Autonomous systems need to be better than humans to gain acceptance, and that’s simply not possible with a vision-only let’s-mimic-humans approach.

Thanks for TimeSnapper Pro. I started using it in 2010 I think after cross-testing the field of options available. I especially like that I was able to purchase a permanent license as opposed to being locked in to a SaaS model where my time data ended up in someone else's control. Everything right on my machine where if it is lost I get all the blame so I never have to stand up from my desk and shake my fist at the cloud.

Excellent product for a consultant like myself to have on hand to document everything happening on their machine. The ability to change the screenshot interval and add notes along the timeline are real power tools for someone involved in multiple projects every day. You can secure your time record snapshots with a password. Playback at multiple speeds so you can jog your memory by browsing the timeline to the exact time when you flipped to something else. Classify by project, client, etc.

Really a great bit of software.

I once found one of my invoiced time periods being challenged during a regular audit of one of my client's operations. I frequently billed long hours since I worked long hours on 24-hour call (remote oil and gas data processing and support of international operations). The auditor called and requested anything I had that could support a particular time period where I billed "excessive" hours (>20 consecutive). I told them I would get them everything that I had and asked whether they were interested in any other dates or time periods or work for specific projects. They narrowed it to one single invoice entry so that made it simple for me.

Thanks to TimeSnapper I was able to produce a GIF movie of the screenshots (I always used a 1 minute snap interval to allow fine-grained operations review) during the requested interval that documented everything happening on screen and I provided a PDF of the notes dumped from that interval documenting phone calls taken, etc. I also sent copies of my handwritten notes I always maintain as primary memory-jogging tool. In the return note to the auditor I asked if they were interested in any other dates or time periods and offered to send an archive on their request.

The auditor called me up and we talked for a while and they thanked me for the detailed records and told me they wouldn't need anything else.

It really helps that my wife is a CPA/Auditor/Fraud Examiner. Tools like TimeSnapper Pro helped me in my business to maintain excellent records about day-to-day operations that made it simple for me to invoice clients for all the time that I spent on their behalf.

Thanks /u/LeonB
First of all, he’s not going to walk away. He can’t. He knows if he does the stock price will drop and his net worth will drop and given his mess in Twitter/X it’ll further screw’s him up. His entire thing about this is so that he can maintain his richest person in the world status, nothing more.

So, no, he’s not really walking away.

But, even if he does, depending on who they get, it might be a net positive for Tesla in the long run.

Trying this emoji thing out inline. Had not even heard of the auto-symbol translation

As a test, looked for (star).com [might show up with .com, or %E2%98%85.com ?](EDIT: nope) Long form is: https://www.xn--p3h.com/ Source was a question on StackExchange about weird domain names.[1] Seemed to be related to the authors hunt for "prestige" emojis.

Apparently owned by Gregg N. Ostrick of GNO, Inc. bought wayyy back in 2001-04-19. [2] If this is such a new idea, how did Mr. Ostrick buy (star).com back in 2001? Got some hijinks with time traveling retcon sales of emoji names?

Notably, typing the (star) symbol in the browser (Firefox) does seem to work, and gets auto-extended to xn--p3h. Others, like (star)(star)(star) appear to work (xn--p3haa) just have no domain squatter. Others, like crazy bail bonds names, or eBay reviews, such as A(star)++ appear to resolve (https://www.xn--a++-0m5a.com/). However, I'm not sure if those actually work.

Also, confusing stuff. Like Wingdings (star), which turns into unicode << do Not actually go to the what Appear to be visually the same. (https://www.xn--iba.com/) Well beyond G00GLE.com (zerO)(zer0) issues.

Even more self-sufficient would be if the older children, having been taught, were to occasionally attempt to teach their younger colleagues?

I tend to think that these are more symptoms than causes. And the disease is that we just put way too much pressure on youth. You need to work hard for your whole youth to get into a good school, then work hard there to get a good job, then work hard for the rest of your life. One serious mistake (these days this might just be the wrong comment) and it's all over. A subset of your peers will take great pleasure in cancelling you for clout points. You also need to have great extracurriculars in order to get into the good school, you need to have a fulfilling social life, you need to be good at relationships and get experience while you're young. You need to stay fit and active, yet also pick a lucrative field that generally ends up with you sitting in a chair all day. All this while evidently the world is ending in a few years due to climate, you're constantly being told that one of the political parties seeks to destroy the world, you're constantly being shat on due to your skin color no matter who you are, housing is completely out of reach, enemy nations constantly circle the west looking for blood, etc.

There's too much stuff and for me personally, the only solution has been to let most of it go, to try to care about as little of it as possible. I'm happier now than I've ever been. But students often have no choice but to care since this stuff affects their futures so much, and it results in insane amounts of depression and anxiety, the same sort I certainly experienced before I had a plan more figured out.
It's up to your browser on whether those are actually loaded all at once. E.g. on Chrome Desktop with no data saver modes enabled it buffers the first couple seconds of each video then when you play it grabs the remaining MBs for that. That way you can see the videos as quick as you like but not actually have to load all 27 fully just because you opened the page.

I guess the way to test that would be to sample all the colors in the illusion scene, and use them to randomly color squares in, say, a square grid, and see if any look red, and if so whether it's the same color(s) that looked red in the original illusion.

I believe color constancy is partially based on adjacency of colors as well as whole scene and lighting.

Depending on how you blobbified the image, it may still recall a plateful of something, and the same colors will still be adjacent to each other, so doing the randomized grid test would tell you if it's just the mix of colors or are the other hints coming to play.

It's possible it is just the mix of colors - same way if you wear color tinted glasses (or ski goggles) and the color of everything changes, but in a consistent way, and (maybe after a few min adaptation) you can still discern the colors reliably.

Edit: On second thought that colored goggles example doesn't prove it's just mix of colors - that's just general color constancy more like the strawberry illusion itself.
My main point is that Microsoft is a different company and probably people will understand Bill Gates genius^3 in hindsight. I think Bill Gates is in another league of intelligence. I also think that Steve Jobs was in another league, different than the Bill one, and with more detours.

I expected Google founders to lead Google but they quit. Jeff Bezos work was also amazing and he continued for long. We have Mark Zuckerberg in Meta, don't doubt he is really smart but the Oculus execution was completely wrong, it is in the business literature. I remember when Microsoft launched Xbox there were a lot of concerns about attracting AAA games like Sony or Nintendo. They did it. Mark launched and maintained the Oculus without a set of apps to play with. Basic mistake: you can show the device to your father and he will be amazed and forget about it next time.

The federal government is merely experiencing what everyone else does: The IT industry has very low standards:

Look at the vast amount of fraud, theft, slander, cons, mis/disinformation, etc. on the Internet, not to mention consumers and small businesses getting run over by legal corporate behavior such as not providing customer service, locking accounts, holding money, holding data, surveillance and selling data, etc.

It's been said before, but IT needs professional standards that provide actual, real-life security, privacy, etc., just like professional standards for building developers provide actual, safe buildings - imagine a fraud equivalent to cryptocurrency in building architecture and engineering; imagine an SBF. SBF was celebrated and still is by some. Lawyers have professional standards, doctors, accountants, scientists, engineers in most fields, ... the list goes on in every field of human endeavor but IT.

And with standards comes liability. Microsoft shouldn't be able to just say, 'sorry about those hackers'.
Hadiat's views aren't as different as you might think. He distinguishes between tech and social media specifically. He thinks tech and the internet are great for kids. However, he thinks that social media before developing meatspace social skills is very damaging, especially for teen girls.

I think his takes are pretty accurate.
This means that you don’t even need to ask the analysts to see how they react because any bias worth trading on can be predicted from the time series itself.
It seems obvious to me that society should prioritize the future generations. Kids should be able to use libraries and parks, especially those from poorer neighborhoods. Families should be able to take their kids out for walks and not have to worry about dodging needles and other biohazards on the ground. There are always tradeoffs, but if some group in society has to make sacrifices it shouldn't be the kids.
Income security 101. Great article.

Tesla is more than a car company, selling solar, home batteries, and auto charging infrastructure. That said, every company at some point has to be valued intrinsically.
Really interesting. If I reproduce the same colors (plate, strawberry lit, strawberry shadow) but with simple squares, the colors that were associated with strawberries do still look a little bit red to my eyes. The more I stare at it, the more red it looks, I would assume because there's so much green and blue, saturating those cones, and causing the relatively neutral "lit strawberry" color to appear red by contrast (like the negative afterimage effect). But even more interesting is that if I glance back and forth at the strawberry image, my "lit strawberry" square starts to look a _lot_ more red.

The strawberry illusion is really cool, thanks for sharing.

The anxiety and depression sets in when the realization comes that there is an ocean between seeing somebody doing something cool on social media, and BE the person doing something cool in real life.

You can only be a spectator for so long, "monkey see, monkey do", except when you see something on social media that you deem interesting becomes impossible to do it within a short timeframe, so the lack of action makes us feel like something is missing.

Just like drugs tapering a good starting point would be to focus on social media content that is actionable.

> Why is it a surprise that employees who are essentially unfirable.

A government needs employees right? One way to attract and retain employees is to offer competitive wages, another is to offer a relatively low workload and high job stability. Government worker salaries are easy targets and the people who set them are elected officials, so its not a surprise most governments today lean on job security over wages.

That's cool -- but wouldn't it be more constructive to discuss "the ideas" in this package anyways?

For instance, it would be interesting to discern if the design of PyTorch (and their modules) preclude or admit the same sort of visualization tooling? If you have expertise in PyTorch, perhaps you could help answer this sort of question?

JAX's Pytrees are like "immutable structs, with array leaves" -- does PyTorch have a similar concept?

40% of people not saving $400 doesn't mean the economy is bad. It could mean they don't know how to save the money they're earning. Perhaps something else is wrong.
