Looks very relevant. If the same service (e.g same instance of the model, or even different instances of the same model) is provided to more than one client, I'd guess a prosecutor might reach for it.

Easiest but most costly way this could be avoided is by creating new models for each client using the client's own specific data and keeping the data and models fully isolated for each client.

If derivative insights are gathered across all models, it'd have to be one-way informing e.g business decisions for the overall company rather than informing how the models themselves operate.

I’m not convinced by his claim, and I’d love to see some convincing data backing him up.

I think a more likely explanation is that Google’s own internal policies, procedures, and culture (unrelated to remote work) are the reasons for falling behind.

Again though, where are the derived results? I found very very few in CT, where other branches are replete. Back to my example, abstract algebra has one derived result after another.

CT is just... statements. It's "observational." I suppose maybe one should simply understand that going in, that there are no (or very few) actual results, it's just a set of descriptors.

Yes. Once I used Rust's Command in a wrong way, and after terminating a child it has turned into a zombie. I had to forcefully kill it manually each time this happened. It had to be fixed in the long run, because each run risked an OOM Killer (employed by the system) will show up and start its random kills. When I've finished my fixes, I've committed everything to the master branch and CI slaves started working nightly to bring me fresh binaries to execute in the morning. It wasn't much longer after smoke tests when it was apparent that the bug was eliminated. ;)

Rails indeed has magic but the way Vercel has taken over React and the javascript ecosystem, it is really sad. The author makes some good points about the upselling and the javascript devs are so used to it that they pay the shipfast guy $299 to configure their project which makes the shipfast guy high 5 figure profits every month. Just for selling configuration. I kid you not.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was asking.

start = gettime()
variable_time_crypto_operation()
end = gettime()
sleep(1sec - (end - start)) // Use a loop if necessary here

If the operation takes a couple ms and the sleep was 1sec, then how much information would realistically leak here? Sure the sleep might not be perfect, but I'd imagine the actual timing difference would get lost just in how much longer the sleep is.

Incredible. Thanks for your dedication; today's reaction should either inspire you, or result in a Cease and Desist (I hope it's just the former).
The "mark of the beast" types are pretty much fine with cards that have chips in them, but they really hate it when you threaten to implant those chips into people and they want cash to remain an option - same as the anti-government types. I don't share their apocalyptic or anti-government concerns, but I'm actually kind of grateful for their passionate opposition to both of those things anyway. I don't really want an implant and the option of using cash is a very good thing.

The anti-government types do hate the idea of a national ID, but they're already forced to carry a drivers license/state ID, and SS card so they've pretty much lost the battle already.

I'm afraid that it's the business owners who are our biggest hurdle.

> Works great without the need for experimental tech of dubious long-term safety, too.

Several thousands of years ago, probably by some combination of accident and disaster (or possibly just a dare) that resulted in some humans sucking on a wild aurochs' teat, followed by an unknown duration (estimated to be a few thousand years) of this drink not being consumable by adults (adult lactose tolerance is a relatively recent mutation in humans) before someone in a relatively cool climate forgot to add salt to the cow stomach they were storing it in, the salt having been necessary for preservation in a hot climate but also prevented the necessary bacteria for cheese from growing. Not that any of them at the time knew any of that, because they had no means to see bacteria, let alone perform tests for lactose in the milk and lactase in the drinkers.

The cows now milk themselves thanks to tech having replaced the need for the milkmaids whose experience catching cowpox inspired the first smallpox vaccine ("vacca" being the latin for cow).

Basically everything invented before the industrial revolution was people guessing wildly, and if their guesses didn't kill them then people copied it.

That is the tradition that led to this: a tradition of FAFO and YOLO.
If ads would have actually worked as preached by the industry, ad blockers wouldn't exist. ;)

But it's Google's and Facebook's best interest to make people believe that they do, no matter the reality.

What they actually do is increase sales by some measurable margin (not always great, but not zero either), while causing all sorts of negative effects (spam, scam, misinformation, all those "influencers" and "engagement" farming causing mental fatigue) that are just waived away and/or swiped under the rug of ignorance by the industry adepts.

Scroll back ten years - even back then Google and Facebook made people believe in a literal myth that they're so Big Data they know people better than they do themselves (I kid you not, I heard this cliche way too many times), when in fact their best systems had extremely limited knowledge of both the audience (like very basic demographics that are not even always accurate) and advertised products (a few pieces of metadata at best). Heck, even modern LLMs have limited awareness so they struggle to make sensible recommendations a lot of time (and are extremely expensive for use in advertising at scale) and I'm talking about orders of magnitude simpler "targeting" systems back then.

Advertisement industry literally preaches advertisement, because their very well-being (aka market valuation) depends on it. I'm (a nobody internet weirdo) hold an opinion that it harms society more than it does it good by boosting the economy.

Eric Schmidt works remotely.
The issue is that a company which was local first will not be able to turn into a remote company because the company culture is completely wrong for it. It is impossible to run a team locally the same way you do remotely.

If the first instinct of everyone is to have an in person meeting them you're in a company which can't run remotely. If you're in a company where you get sent an instant message then you can't run it outside of the single time zone where the headquarters are.

You need to be comfortable with emails and high latency responses to have a company that can run globally.

I think the original link already includes the conversion w/ inflation. It says that the book retailed for fivepence in 1735 which is ₤10 8s. 4d in today's money. It would be interesting to see the math behind this though. When I tried myself I got £3.63 ($4.66 USD) but that is taking into the account the inflation of the UK pound, not the local Boston pound (https://crowd-media.loc.gov/cm-uploads/resources/colonial_cu...).

Before decimalization, a pound was 240 pence, so fivepence should be 0.02p today (5/240). Here we can find that in 1735 one pound is £181.43 in today's money:

https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/in...

That comes out to £1.81 per pence or £3.63 for 2p.

I'm probably wrong but it was an interesting rabbit hole to go down.

GFCI outlets have two sets of terminals, line and load. Line is meant to take hot & neutral from the mains panel. For load, you can run wire from there to downstream regular outlets, and it will give them GFCI protection too.

This is annoying when the outlets are in different rooms and it's not clear what's connected to what, but can save money when wiring up a bunch of outlets in a kitchen, for example, since a GFCI outlet can be $20 or more, while regular outlets usually only cost a couple bucks.
But the /64 would not be publicly routable (i.e., be visible in the global BGP table).

I guess in practice, it's more like IPv4 /24 = IPv6 /48, though. The closest analog to an IPv4 /32 would probably be an IPv6 /64.
This seems extremely self-serving on behalf of Schmidt in order to avoid any serious self-reflection of what seems to be going on at Google. I've never looked a at a Google product and thought "this sloppy product is the result of people who were more concerned about going home".

I don't really care about the remote work argument, but this fight is the rug that covers the real problem. Google products are _the_ definition of political dysfunction. Absolutely amazing quagmires built by geniuses who were all more concerned with leaving their mark so they could get a promotion or being as milquetoast as possible in order to not rock the boat. Google practically invented the technology, but it's its applications looked funny AdSense revenue and it was quickly shelved.

Google falling behind on AI indicated a real leadership problem and you only need to look at Zuckerberg and Meta, which has similar policies, and has a far more cohesive vision and execution on AI; but it looks like Eric Schmidt doesn't have the balls to call out leadership.
Realistically, the other person ends up in jail and then you still can’t get compensated for car repairs. It’s not super clear why that would be better than the pooling of risk that happens today that results in compensation.

American society has chosen to create a built environment that is inhospitable to anything else except driving, so I don’t think this is actually a real choice. The people who are getting into crashes all the time are not the ones pushing for that built environment.

A lot of things involving electricity in places with type-G plugs seem more dangerous if you don't know/assume that almost everything is grounded. Took me a while to realize that hairdrier he mentioned in the blogpost likely didn't have a ground connection in the plug.

In the case of a toaster with a grounded frame, the most likely route for a short is straight to earth which will trip the RCD on that set of plugs.

There probably aren't enough roofs and parking lots to run civilization plus produce enough calories to feed us. Deserts are nice but then you're talking about a lot of long-distance transmission, which gets expensive; most likely if we end up with a lot of fallow farmland closer to consumers, we'll use that.

Still a great trade going from 40% to 4%. But if we do manage some kind of really cheap nuclear, that'd be even better.

> What is it that makes management so bearish towards remote?

I think it's not one specific reason - primarily though, I think, it gives employees more power over their employment situation and lives. Employers love power over their employees and I expect them to react harshly when they perceive this power is threatened.

Secondly, CEO's are typically lifelong corporate cretins with zero imagination, and they mostly just copy whatever CEO they think is reputable. The result is they all end up copying whatever everyone else is doing. I promise you, Meta's "year of efficiency" was not unique to meta, nor was that naming. So, once one declares remote work is dead, all of them will fall behind.

Thirdly, I think it is investments already made into real estate and sunk-cost fallacy type of thing. Probably not even a little part of it is the ego boost that comes with getting your preferred parking space, corner office where you can gaze smugly at your less fortunate underlings, etc.

They don't actually care about productivity, because I think the studies are pretty conclusive about remote work so far. It's far, far easier to waste time doing nothing in an office than at home, at least for me. I can easily kill a half hour doing a lap around the bullpens and appear to be working but in reality I'm doing nothing. In most corporate remote work environments, they'll notice really quickly if you're gone for a half hour because of all the productivity software.
My understanding is they're arguing that the FCC didn't have the authority to regulate net neutrality, but that Congress has the sole authority and/or occupies the field (and thus states can't). That doesn't seem incongruous?

One of the keys to success for this thing is not letting it become infested with advertisements.
Perhaps not in Java but in C# it is quite common to do

var tasks = names.Select(GetThingAsync); // IEnumerable<Task<Thing>>
var things = Task.WhenAll(tasks); // Task<Thing[]>, await to get Thing[]

Can mix and match with other LINQ methods. There are other useful methods like Parallel.ForEachAsync, .AsParallel (Java has a similar abstraction) and IAsyncEnumerable for asynchronously "streaming back" a sequence of results which let you compose the tasks in an easy way.

I'm curious how to monetize something like a job site salary revealer
We do have all sorts of inconsistent “context menus” now on mobile. Sometimes after you select something, sometimes as items under the share button, sometime when you actually long press, sometimes a menu appears when you tap an item, sometimes as action items that appear when you slide an item to a side. And even for a single of those variations, different variants with different looks exist, etc. A uniform way to “show me all actions I can perform on this item” would be greatly beneficial.
One of the keys to the success of this thing is not letting it become infested with advertisements. The desire to monetise will be almost irresistible.
Chrome extension that analyzes job descriptions for you
Searching for a job on LinkedIn might feel like a pointless task, but we still do it. Reading job descriptions is tough, especially when you're trying to find something specific, and LinkedIn doesn't offer good filters. So, I created a simple Chrome extension that takes the job description you're currently viewing and uses ChatGPT to find answers to the questions you initially asked.

You can ask any questions you want, like "Do they offer relocation assistance?" or "Do they use React?" and so on. Then, as you scroll through job listings, you'll get answers to those questions for each one. If this might be helpful to someone else, I'd be glad.

That seems entirely like an implementation detail that doesn't have anything to do with the smart card interface itself.

It's not like it's rocket science to have the reader application detail what the request is used for, and encoding it in the request/response, verified when used, so that it can't be used for anything but the approved purpose.
My guess would be that the primary users would keep it on as background noise in some room or another, and it would take a significant amount of data for comparatively little benefit.

He's simply trying to get people to focus on others because god forbid we question the work HE did as CEO.
