4-6 is reasonable but for I feel 5-8 is a bit more sustainable to add some redundancy- though that should include a technical lead who also serves as the manager (50-50) and ideally a product/program person who can maybe float between teams. It's also important that everyone is using the same standardized toolkit and shared infrastructure so each team doesn't invent their own ways of working or tooling. Some flexibility and experimentation is good but it should be clearly segmented until it's clear the innovations are worth the adoption and maintenance costs of both the 'new' and now 'legacy' system.
There's no logical flaw here. An idea can't be fully formed, if it could be more precise and more complete.

Is that really fundamental? Maybe for studies in pathological real functions.

But in realistic functions relevant to our actually universe, these pathological cases aren't important.
Things you write down stick better (according to school teachers) and if you write digitally you can look stuff up as you write.

There are similar quotes about meditation and walking so they are all part of the same toolkit (and it is great if you can use any part of it).

When I was growing gourmet mushrooms I was just sending data from esp32s and humidity/temp sensors to grafana/graphite on my nas. A few hundred loc total.

Many years before that I did sports arbitrage. Wrote my own xpath system before xpath for it. Worked great.
Of course there is a pattern: (n+1)x = nx+x. Your brain can learn it just fine, and then it can multiply numbers without having to burden your slow inefficient symbolic reasoning machinery with rules and facts.
I’m about 90% sure that you’re trying to make a sarcastic joke but I’ve seen enough people maliciously put words in others mouths thats it’s genuinely hard to tell. Sarcasm isn’t good in text sadly
> I love the idea of buying local, but am always frustrated with the price.

It's fascinating how cheap shipping can be, even over huge distances: the lower wages of developing nations is hardly eaten up by transport costs, so even stuff produced from the other side of an ocean or the planet can still be 'price efficient' compared to higher-wage local stuff in developed nations.
That's been happening for many, many years.
Tailwind is gross. It's just that it's the least gross of the available options.
Well, it’s certainly invective against psychologists, people with learning difficulties, and IQ.

I think he grossly undervalues naive pattern recognition. Natural complex systems are emergent from very simple interactions with mind boggling numbers. I think the {1,2,3,4,x} example is demonstrative because he doesn’t suggest what the answer should be.

I agree with him that IQ is meaningless. I think his arguments are, ironically, somewhat reductive. A man from Lebanon’s privileged elite who has surely amassed fortune along with his fame during his lifetime places financial success as the most important metric. For others it could be how much “unproductive” time they have or propensity to be vegan or the number of offspring they produce or sporting success et cetera et cetera.

So sure, IQ is useless but I think the essay just tells us a lot more about him.
I depends what you mean by "memorization". All learning requires memory so with an expansive definition all learning is "memorization".

But if one means pure rote memorization, I think the value depends very much on the field. Writing English requires knowledge of the spellings of words since English spellings are fairly arbitrary. A student can benefit from memorizing multiplication table to 10 but they'd do better learning principles than memorization multiplication up 100 or 1000. And many of principles, terminologies and rules of thumb are best remembered in-context.

One thing to consider is that "memory training" approaches can be effectively used to remember long arbitrary sequences of data (the arrangement of a deck of playing cards or whatever) through adding colorful/memorable (but arbitrary) associations.

But such methods are seldom actually used by practitioners of memory intensive fields. Usually such practitioners need to recall facts and ideas in context and so they achieve a high recall naturally, by associations facts and ideas with each other.
It’s an abstract measure that is somewhere between 2 and 10 people. It’s deliberately not supposed to be prescriptive
Taking the statement completely out of context, it states : if A implies B, then not A implies not B. This is a logical flaw.

The correct statement from a logical point of view is: if A implies B, then not B implies not A.

In this case, even if writing down your ideas makes them more precise, there might be other methods that make your ideas more precise. Again this is just the logical point of view, out of context.
It has lasted for several decades, and the core of it dates back over a century.

That reckoning may yet come but nobody expects it any time soon.
The problem with most of this research is that high IQ and low IQ people learn differently, but aren't separated out in the studies.

Vscode isn’t usually mandated in my experience.

And yes npm and github as well, but both of those were fairly recent acquisitions.
Honestly this looks cool but setting it up is a bit much. Like... I think the idea of this is cool, but by the time I've done all this setup I've more than likely forgotten what it is I was trying to do to begin with, and even when most of it's already installed I need to make sure several things are running etc. before this becomes essentially a link in the chain. That feels to me like it's going against the ease of integration the project is meant to facilitate a tiny bit. Like somebody else already stated in this thread, having a bit more of a ready-to-go solution, stick it in docker if you must, would probably help here.

whilst reducing the time to create type definition files from minutes, sometimes even hours, down to less than a second.

WTF. What kind of project would take long to compile from TS? Windows 11 (if it were TS)?

I had a long time personal project that was several megs of code with several hundred types/interfaces. It took 13 seconds to compile. If your application takes hours to compile and is less than a petabyte of source code you have some catastrophic mistakes in your approach.
What do you mean by memorizing? Of course, a mathematician remembers things but no mathematician learns a field by first attain the ability to recite the theorems in a book without understanding.
Games industry is a bit of an oddball.

Microsoft’s XNA framework was quite good early on.

But unity alone really popularized c# in gamedev.

Also Xamarin allowing a single codebase for android and iOS was a driving factor as well.

So c# is a must, but teams, office, and exchange, and windows server are not.
Reminds me of that bits about money blogpost title :

"The optimal amount of fraud is non-zero"
I’ve posted this comment on only a handful of threads over the 12 years I’ve been active in this site.

This is an absolute waste of time effort and resources, and nobody should have spent any time considering this let alone implementing it.

And yet, they went ahead and implemented it anyway. This is exactly the kind of nonsense I love seeing on here, and it’s what brings me back to this site. I love it.

<div class="commtext c00">Yes this is some terrible logic, but the idea is true.

Writing about something fixes (most) wrong thoughts, and since you are wrong in 99% of cases you can safely say that you are wrong unless you have written about it.</div>
I completely agree, I think that precedent matters. But again, that's just not how conversations go when it's the other side that's being discussed. Try bringing up the US in a Russia thread, here or elsewhere and you'll get that magic word on every single reply lol.
> Taking the statement completely out of context, it states : if A implies B, then not A implies not B. This is a logical flaw.

The statement in TFA is not that though. Instead, it is "if A implies B, then not A implies not C."

A: writing about thoughts
B: thoughts become more complete
C: thoughts are most complete

If "A implies B" is true, then it also doesn't matter if other methods also make your ideas more complete, because "A implies B" means that writing would make them even more complete, therefore "not C."
The article says $200 a month for the AI annotation job in Uganda. Median income appears to be $70(2012 data, so maybe now $100 after inflation)
"Organic", at least in the US, is a government program massively captured by large producers. The standards are not very good, and very hard for small farms to meet (even when the small farms have much better practices.)

FairTrade is a 501(c)3. It's standards are ok, but they lack the funds to enforce them properly.

Both are kinda better than nothing. Barely.
Quite a few of these tools out there. Is any clearly better or more popular than the others?
What the higher math classes don't tell you is that you are supposed to study those worked examples an practice problems on your own.
I suspect you’re taking that excerpt too literally. By my reading, the author is expressing their surprise to learn something to improve their writing from an unexpected source (a book about mathematics), and is even more surprised at this source being written by someone very different from the author culturally (Hungarian) and philosophically/politicaly (Stalinist).
I mean I agree, but that's also Russian rhetoric. Fair's fair when the other side is doing it is basically the basis of Russian foreign policy, or at least the justification for their foreign policy.

Again though I agree with you, whatboutism is just enforcing precedent.
Well, sure, but then any kind of encapsulation is less than ideal. However, here the context is VPNs and this means there’s always going to be some sort of encapsulation. And if the choices are between encapsulating something in TCP and encapsulating something in UDP, the latter should always be chosen.
> Are you a regular voter

I regularly reach out to my representatives in writing. Nothing ever comes of it. None of the issues I bring up are ever brought into discussion. Fake job postings, and interferance in labor relations have been a recent subject that only receives boilerplate responses. No action has been taken, its been 5 years since I started doing this which is an appropriate measure of sampling time to show trends and inform on larger systems, though 10 years is better.

I vote every time I have a chance. The problem with voting systems is first, the money vote (tweedism) just to get on a ballot. It's a filter and acts to make the system captive to those with concentrated wealth, by limiting those who can successfully run.

Second, the concentration of representative power in few representatives leads to dynamics where many are not represented simply because there are too many competing interests within that group (as opposed to an upper limit per representative like it used to be @80,000).

Seniority by committee limits power to only those who get re-elected regularly (further concentrating power).

Third, the voting as a plurality which is also exclusionary. You can skew any system holding at least 66 percent of the vote.

It is also an all or nothing vote (not ranked choice), where inherently when a representative can't win the majority, none of the people who voted for them technically have much representation among other competing and more favorable members of that group who voted for that person.

Finally,

> Please don't do this. Its one step below analogising petty complaints to Auschwitz.

These are not petty complaints. They are fundamental and foundational to the functional operation of any feedback system. Its based solidly in actual history, not hyperbole. Its not funny... at all. Archer is meant to be absurd and funny; its not a fair characterization or comparison.

There are many experts that are claiming the same thing because rational observable indicators are all showing that this is a growing existential problem. Rome fell largely because of corruption alongside external invasion. There are important lesson's which could be learned but are largely being ignored.

The dynamics are the same with most Empires (where a country seeks hegemony), and the majority of people have not been adequately educated to be able to even hold to rational conversation, instead putting forth beliefs in luei of observable facts being confident in their blindness.

That too is a problem because our enemies take advantage of that blindness.

If you've read any history about the Stasi, you'd know the systems they used to disunite the population, most of those system's have been used by government's today. They also enrolled others in a constant fear of betrayal by those close, and that's very similar to all the embedded devices (where a digital automata/soldier is embedded in each household spying on them).

These things are serious, and deserve rational respect and following rational rules to have any discussion.
Chromates are very rare in natural minerals and they’re mostly an industrial intermediate compound. Chromite is the common mineral converted to metal chromium for incorporation into alloys so the chromates are limited to the factory. Most other Cr bearing minerals contain chromium oxides.

Other industrial lithium intermediates are also toxic, as is the concentrated brine it’s often extracted from. Since it’s concentration is so low, most lithium extraction is pretty nasty.
This isn't clear though, because under the search it tells you the number of results, so you think you've paid for all those results, but you haven't. You've only paid for the first page. And how can I export multiple pages?

Not true.
I slightly misspoke above. The important part in my opinion is the milestone of democracy. That it happened nearby wars is somewhat incidental and common.

What I mostly remember about the HRE is that it wasn’t Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire. :D. My first guess of mid 1600s is not too far off.

(Westphalian sovereignty is interesting… reading about it now.)

Those governments have been replaced multiple times over the centuries however, so achievements at the time were not stable.
> I intuitively want to think that vertically integrating and cutting out several middle men, and selling locally would reduce the price

You’re missing the PPP arbitrage. When you can vertically integrate and process the cow in a third world country where median incomes are $1000/year, it would still be cheaper to buy from there and import, than your vertically integrated local farm in a country with $60000/year median incomes.

Even though labor costs aren’t everything, PPP affects everything from fuel prices to feed prices.
Is computer science involved in anyway?
Civil rights are not a zero-sum game. One group of people gaining rights doesn't take away the rights from another group, but that is commonly used as an argument to manipulate people into opposing the expansion of rights without confronting what that opposition really means. We saw it with integration in the US often presented as an infringement on the rights of white people. We saw it with gay marriage when people argued that it was somehow an affront to traditional heterosexual marriage. And now we are seeing it with people claiming that trans people are infringing on women's rights.

>Secondly, press coverage, from news outlets across the political spectrum, of a male rapist incarcerated in a women's prison, who sexually assaulted several female prisoners there.

This is a good example of what that manipulation looks like in action. I agree that prisoners should have a right to safety despite their crimes. But what should the priority be for someone with this position? It certainly wouldn't be putting more attention on a single case of assault over some 999 other examples of a prisoner getting assaulted[1]. The focus on the one case involving a trans person shows that the motivation isn't actually prisoner safety.

I would argue that understanding the pathological behavior in something is critical to developing an accurate intuition for it, yes. These cases don't show up often, but when it comes to having a good sense of smell for when part of a proof is flawed, it really helps to have that olfactory memory.
This is now my favorite hacker news comment
I've learned a lot from watching non-fatal accidents and close calls on /r/IdiotsInCars. I'm not sure I'd be better off if these were graphic or of someone I know.

What maddens me about social media is that they're OK hosting videos of their users driving recklessly on public roads and getting away with it. It normalizes dangerous driving, even glorifies it since these idiots attract millions of followers. Instagram for example doesn't even have a category to report this content.
As someome who hoped that OpenAI would be consistently candid, this certainly comes as a disappointment.

If the internal culture is to keep problems under wraps to maintain appearances, this seems like it might backfire at some point.
if you were to follow asml's shipments by way of their preferred logistics company you would know how many High NA EUV tools Intel currently has in Chandler, when they received them and you might be asking yourself a different series of questions about what is actually happening in to their potential output and hte impact on the industry. But this foolish banter keeps the stock down for the moment, so thank you.
Ya I hope people are not putting any sensitive information when using Chat GPT. Anything that can get stolen will get stolen. Just a matter of when not if. On device LLMs with no network transmissions are the only way to keep things safe if you really care.

My mother said her cousins that ran a high quality dairy in Washington State back in the 1950's would sell all their milk and buy milk from the store. I think that's a testament to economics and how broke they were.

Enough said. It’s completely normal to not disclose a breach if there’s no proof or great likelihood that customers were implicated.

This is false; there are ads in quite a few places in macOS, examples of which were shared in another reply to your comment.

While I'm not a Windows user much anymore, my understanding is that there are at least unofficial hacks/tweaks you can apply to remove many of the ads in Windows. In contrast, certain ads in macOS (e.g. the one nagging you to upgrade your iCloud plan when you're near your storage limit) cannot be disabled through any mechanism that I've been able to find.
There is nothing particularly unidiomatic here - there are multiple ways to approach vectorization in .NET. Such low-level C# flavour is by definition something most developers would never write (even though it has gotten way more convenient and easier to do).

CoreLib heavily leans on "byref arithmetics" over pointer arithmetics, because this allows you to avoid object pinning and may have marginally better codegen at callsites, but it is by no means a requirement.

The code is fine, and it's not dissimilar to how SearchValues internal text search algorithms are implemented. It could be improved by factoring out platform-specific shuffle calls into a helper method and have the core use only portable method calls, but for the sake of demonstrating the point in the article it's absolutely fine.

Passkeys are the software version ('platform authenticator') of hardware keys ('roaming authenticator'), so no touching. Biometrics in this case are an attempt in software at something like the user presence test hardware has, but this is an OS-level guard, so the guarantees are much weaker. (Of course you can also have a biometric lock on a hardware key, which would be an improvement under the physical access threat model.)
