Wealthy miners with state of the art ASICS benefit more than some kid mining at home with an old GPU. Maintenance/cost of mining equipment benefits from economies of scale too.

Probably it'd be irresponsible not to try it. I'm curious if this is the full shape of the problems and constraints faced by planners. Flexport is the $3.3bn (revenue) company in this space also based in SF.

In large part, yes
I’m not a rocket scientist but I do know the two rockets use different propellants. The Atlas V uses solid propellant, and the Starship uses liquid. I know liquid engines have the ability to throttle them, and I would guess solid does not (or a more limited capacity) so that could be at play here. Starship could ignite and then throttle up, which would leave it on the pad longer. I’m sure someone more knowledgeable than I can clarify!

You are implying that the company that seeks less regulation necessarily does it because it's of lesser quality and this is the reason they can not abide by stricter regulations. I don't think this assumption is true.
The balance of power is still vastly in favor of the company that made the offer. Meaning, they could rescind the offer at any time for any reason and possibly ruin the potential employees life. Whereas the reverse case of the potential employee rejecting an offer is much less likely to have a material impact on the company. For this reason I don't think the company deserves that much concern.

Price is often the point. Diamonds are conspicuous wealth, an easy way to demonstrate "I'm better than you because my diamond is bigger/clearer/natural" for people who think like that.
The funny thing is most games in my library say they won't run on macOS because they're 32-bit applications, and they won't show up in my library when filtering by "Mac".

I don't think this relates to the physical loading of the containers on ships at all. It is concerned with 3 problems: "Network design determines the order in which vessels visit ports, network scheduling determines the times they arrive and leave, and container routing chooses the journey that containers take from origin to destination."
You said:

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your honesty here, But I don't think that's fair, and probably why you're getting push-back in this thread.
As always, depends on the implementation.

Hash maps should generally always have faster lookups than Btree based structures. However, they'll have slower writes especially when contested. A key issue hash tables have to deal with is what happens when a remapping needs to happen. For example, when 2 keys have the same hash. In that case, locking becomes a lot more messy.

For a btree this is simpler. It's built to be able to handle reshuffling and rebalancing in a way that's semi easy to have fine grained locks around.

It's amusing you can self identify this way without much hesitation. My personal experience with colleagues and family on both sides of the regional, religious, lijguistic, and cultural debate is that if you talked about being a non-Muslim supporter of political Islamists or up to including Hamas or similar groups, so anywhere in that continuum inclusive, few in Western or Israeli media will hesistate in labelling you in a way common with these talking points: a terrorist.

So good luck to you, but I'm not surprised you'd stay private
But my anecdata (or some may call life experience) tell me you'd be fine and fare well where a similarly extreme position on the opposite end of the spectrum would cost you a lot personally and professionally. I wish we all reflected in the West or in tje region or conflict area, well, why is that?

For the record since I inevitably get routinely called an anti-Semite anyway: I think Hamas and groups like them are vile, but many in the region opposing them don't take the high road by comparison either. Im nkt sure if its recent or monitoring that become easier and more economical, but that means their opponents with this crap and other tactics have really screwed up. This HN post further supports my cynicism and disappointment.
A for loop with more than four lines of internal logic probably does need to be refactored. A for loop with less lines can usually be turned into a list comprehension or invocation of the map function. But a four loop with just a few lines is often clean and easy enough to understand, and will pass my review.

I'm assuming we're working in Python here, which are already much more elegant and pythonic than C/C++ style loops:

That does make more sense: unless I read you wrong, leftism wasn’t a real sway here - and that’s easier to square away. Leftist Zionism is (as far as I can tell), almost only advanced by Jews.

Neat, though I’m perhaps confused as to how you might even arrive at Zionism (a rather polar position to take).
>A program that can produce copies is the same as a copy.

A program that always produces copies is the same as a copy. A program that merely can produce copies categorically is not.

The Library of Babel[1] can produce copyrighted works, and for that matter so can any random number generator, but in almost every normal circumstance will not. The same is true for LLMs and diffusion models. While there are some circumstance that you can produce copies of a work, in natural use that's only for things that will come up thousands of times in its training set -- by and large, famous works in the public domain, or cultural touch-stones so iconic that they're essentially genericized (one main copyrighted example are the officially released promo materials for movies).

Fine, but we were talking about compression, not about imitation, or inspiration, and not about creating "a work that evokes similar feelings and emotions". If I compress an image, what I get when I decompress it is that image, not "feelings and emotions", yes? In fact, that's kind of the whole point: I can send an image over the web and the receiver can form their own feelings and emotions, without having to rely on mine.

Drivers seem to just work in Linux now too these days!
I bought a cheap mini pc a while back that shipped with Windows 11. I ultimately planned to use Linux, but kept the Windows install around “just in case” and went for a dual boot. In case of what? I have no idea, I haven’t had Windows in my house in many years. I think I didn’t want to give up the license, and when I looked around, I couldn’t find an easy way to save it.

I saw recall about the same time as I was thinking of using the mini pc for something else. Seeing what Windows had planned, and seeing Copilot shoehorned into my taskbar after a Windows update was enough. I blew away the install and only have Linux running now.

You seem to equate research as a leisure activity with amateur research. If you read 'leisure' simply as 'outside your main, bread-earning job', then it absolutely can be cutting edge research published in peer-reviewed outlets. It's not even that uncommon, look for people who have a university affiliation (that isn't just teaching) as a side gig. And that's just one way you could be pursing serious research outside your main job, you don't even need a university affiliation - it's certainly helpful with access to resources, feedback, ideas (and, let's be honest, it probably helps with visibility/credibility too), but it's not strictly necessary. As a different example, there are some (rare) examples where legitimate mathematical results were discovered by hobbyists going completely on their own. I also remember a documentary about a crew of retirees, including former physics professors and a precision mechanics engineer, who were performing physics experiments of masses at extremely low accelerations to test some limits of special relativity iirc - which in itself was technically the result of 'leisure research', like several of Einstein's most famous discoveries.

If it's something you're interested in, my suggestion would be to decide on a rough area and then seek out experts to brainstorm ideas for a suitable problem for you to work on, maybe one that leverages your existing skills in a creative way (like the engineer in the above example).
If a made a bot that read amazon reviews and then output a meta-review for me, would that be a violation of amazon's copyright? (I'm sure somewhere in the amazon ToS they claim all ownership rights of reviews).

There is zero need for Israel to garner support from the US.

The point of this campaign was to highlight "fake social accounts tricking" "Black lawmakers and young progressives" (>Black lawmakers in the U.S., particularly Democrats., >young Americans, >Black Americans) because at least someone wants them to think that they, their teams and their followers are weak & easy targets, thus reducing their perceived competence and credibility without the necessity of success of the campaign itself, except that similar campaigns existed for pro-Russia and fuck-Russia content all while celebrating Ukraine's destruction, sorry, fight for independence, officially.

These campaigns are part of a cluster. They are not meant to merely polarize but to make some people resign and follow public/ the states' opinions much quicker than they normally would. At the same time, buffs, journalists, educated people and the rational kind spend more time sieving through information sources that are bloated.

I'm not saying this is a conspiracy, hell no, it's entanglement, it's marketing, it's the business of politics and national establishments and companies challenging each other to test ludicrous strategies to sway public opinion. It's all from the modern "The Drump" playbook. Just imagine how at least enough people who fall for campaigns like this, feel when they are told the truth. How many will get angry, really? How many are going to start gearing and studying up? Who are they to trust if their own government supports governments who have the need to run campaigns like this?

This whole "making people support conflicting causes" has been working pretty damn well for the (alt)Right, who is desperately trying to diminish young peoples' independence and turn them all into obedient followers to sell their 'stones are really hard' books and narratives and time on screen.

It's just dozens of millions but that's the few you need make the elected look your way when they are ready to pay2win "at all cost".

So how can we fight this with engineering? We need analysis run by red and blue teams from universities worldwide. I mean it's 2024. The scientific community does it, but their time is dictated by the scientific method. Or are there live projects already?

Very nice game! I'm very surprised that (IIUC) you say you managed to automate the generation of such lively fills. I've gotten words such as SIGMA and ANGST in helpful and surprising positions.

On the other hand, automation might explain how I got one grid involving BHAJI (a food I'm not familiar with — I thought maybe you expected it to be familiar to your readers, but now I suspect it was put in by an uncaring computer). The word list knows BHAJI but not KEFIR.

I also got a grid involving TEATS, which doesn't pass the breakfast test. That made the grid somewhat unfair: I've internalized that I can prune search branches involving e.g. STOAS in favor of STOAT, and I expect to be able to prune branches involving e.g. PENIS in favor of PERIL. If it turns out that the only viable solution depends on exploring one of those seemingly-signposted-as-prunable branches, well, that's frustrating. So you may want to take another pass over the word list.

Kudos on a very well-crafted game! Again, it's really impressive that you managed to create so many rewarding puzzles — and even more so (basically incredible) that you managed to come up with an algorithm to auto-generate them!
> There is a good case to be made that

There is not. Counterpoint: Wikipedia. It's definitely not like this where SQL is used by 99.99999% of everyone and nobody has even heard of QUEL.

> It is not like Postgres was a new project and they simply had to pick something. It had been with us for a decade before deciding to take the SQL direction.

It wasn't even remotely popular until they made that change. In fact, it wasn't even remotely popular until years after they made that change.

Probably the interesting point is that they could make this change and not really lose any necessary functionality. Clearly the query language was not particularly important.

> Thing is, I'm not sure SQL is even all that popular nowadays.

A suggestion so laughable I have no response. SQL has never been as popular as it is right now in history. Even with the introduction of noSQL databases, SQL continues to gain. All boats are floating.

> By your logic, databases should be adopting what best aligns with that programming model rather than clinging to SQL.

Is there something they can adopt? If you presented me with 2 options, lets call one X and other SQL then we could have discussion about adopting one or the other. If this X was indeed more popular then maybe they shouldn't cling to SQL. But the dozens of ORMs across dozens of platforms is not an alternative that can be chosen.

> It seems the SQL crowd still can't get over that there might be an alternative.

If you've been around long enough you wait until someone can bring the receipts.

> The most common SQL bug I see in my travels can be distilled down to something like:

Yeah that is pretty common. Would it be nice if that wasn't an issue? Sure. I'm not arguing that an alternative might not be better, it's just not better enough. These are pretty minor annoyances. If you just made a language that fixes this one issue and left everything else alone, it would be better than SQL, but you wouldn't get anyone to switch. You'd be better off proposing this as a feature addition to SQL and maybe in 20 years you'll be able to use it.

I am curious about models like encodec or soundstream. They are essentially meant to be codecs informed by the music they are meant to compress to achieve insane compression ratios. The decompression process is indeed generative since a part of the information that is meant to be decoded is in the decoder weights. Does that pass the smell test from a copyright law's perspective? I believe such a decoder model is powering gpt-4o's audio decoding.
