> Taking ideal job traits negative and positive, converting it into correlative personality traits, and guessing the personality trait of the candidate is adding unnecessary abstraction layers with no benefit.

Because that is the wrong approach. Instead, an employer should conduct a personality assessment and keep it as data for later comparison against performance to build a baseline of total average employee personality correlation. It would let the employer know what performance traits to select for in order to maximize for performance in a given role. Unlike an interview a standardized assessment is unbiased when comparing the data between different candidates/employees.

Seriously, if you want to know about a candidate you only need two things:

1. Personality/intelligence assessment

2. Make them write an essay, by hand without a computer.

If they cannot write original words they cannot write original software. They can probably still script together some reused framework bullshit, though, so it depends upon the needs of a given employer.

The main issue I foresee with this plan is getting a useful reading. We measure distances with photons by interfering them with a known reference. This raises a number of problems for neutrinos:

1. Neutrino reflection. LIGO and LISA use ultra precise mirrors. Can we build a neutrino mirror? Could we get away with something else instead, say sending beams around opposite sides of the Sun to combine them using gravitational lensing?

2. Neutrino interference. Is this a thing? Pretty sure it's not a thing.

3. Neutrino speed. Photons move at the speed of light. Neutrinos don't. Since we measure time and convert, we need a precise value for neutrino speed, which we currently lack.
Because arrows are functions/mappings, and everything we do in programming involves arrows, even in languages where arrows aren't used as notation.

The common formulation is that a "monad is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors", which is not saying much but with big words, and the joke lies in understanding what it's saying. Bartosz Milewski has a lecture video series on youtube that's all about explaining that joke, and I highly recommend it because it's actually a wonderful CS lecture series.

I don't know. One of the main benefits of rubber-ducking is that it can't offer any sort of real analysis. That's why the ideal human to use as a rubber duck is one that has no idea what you're talking about.

The whole point is to force yourself to actually go back to square one and clearly explain every little detail, thus surfacing assumptions you didn't even realize you were making.
$15/mo is compensation.

Corporations are not people, as much as some court decisions and politicians would like us to believe they are. A corporation's 5th amendment rights cannot be violated, because it does not have those rights.

That's one use case, but you can use them to execute any elisp code. So when I encounter a new major mode I plan to use, while going through its docs I make hydras for keystrokes/commands I plan to use. This way I don't need to look up my notes, nor do I need to memorize keystrokes.
The problem is land area.

> Today, almost half the world’s habitable land is used for agriculture. Of that, an astounding 80% is dedicated to livestock grazing and animal feed.

> We need more forests...they are home to many billions of plants, animals, bacteria and fungi whose complex metabolic interactions make up the biosphere with its crucial role in stabilizing the climate.

The article also mentions that photosynthesis is "surprisingly inefficient," which is why there's room to drastically reduce the area we need to feed our livestock.

First, they are called "records", not "vinyls." Do you call your compact discs "polycarbonates?" Second, the records was working with were not vinyl. He said 45's, and most 45's were pressed in Styrene, not PVC. It is a lot more susceptible to both warping and scratching than vinyl.
You're right, hardware keys will leak. The idea is not to put trust into hardware, but to put trust into organizations.

Some photographer gives images to a news organization, and they take the photographer's word for it that these images are real before they sign and redistribute them. They trust the reporter, and you trust the organization. Or if the reporter has built enough credibility, they can vouch for the images themselves and you can trust them directly.

Cryptography allows you to verify that this reporter or organization attests that the images are what they claim. It doesn't allow you to verify whether the organization is worthy of your trust.

Either way, the system relies on being able to trust people, not things.
Yeah but if you really optimize it to ad absurdum, everybody will pay according to damages they will cause, negating whole point of 'socialized' spread-across-variable-population insurance.

End users shouldn't generally want insurance to run over-optimally, that benefits just shareholders of given insurance and not population overall. That I consider myself above-average driver changes absolutely nothing in this. And those stupid enough who think similarly and think they should therefore pay less can and will be easily hit from unexpected angles and end up same or worse (age, old injuries/mental diagnoses, family history and gazillion other params which are/should be mostly illegal to optimize against, and you have little to no control of).

I think it's totally sensible. Presumably some people will always like to bring their own editor, and for that, having direnv supply an language server, compiler or interpreter, etc., plus including a generic editorconfig file is nice. But why not go all the way and provide ready-to-use, pre-configured VSCodium and Neovim?

If you diff them, you'll see the AGPLv3 is essentially the GPLv3 with this extra clause added:

"13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
following paragraph."

Therefore, what I said about linking applies to both.

To be clear, you only have to offer source code if you've modified an AGPLv3 program and you're distributing it publicly or "interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version supports such interaction)". Op's scenario neither modifies Minio nor distributes it, so they're under no obligation to offer source.

That may be true in a general sense, but how do you figure, in this particular case? It seems entirely likely to me that SCOTUS will overturn this NY law, based on their actions over the past several years. Maybe they won't, and that would be great, but I think it's likely they will.
Also interested in recs.

The only comments I'd heard about baijiu before actually trying it were in the vein of the rather hyperbolic sibling comment that compares it to cow feces. I was surprised to find the particular baijiu I tried more like a very herbal whisky.

Maybe people hating on baijiu just haven't tried many hard liquors? At its worst, peaty scotch could be compared to, well, peat (which is decaying vegetation), and mezcal could be compared to burnt plants. But both can taste great.
I have 2 older teenagers, we live in a very comfortable suburb of Paris, top schools etc. If not for my wife's MS we would have had two more because it was fun, we can afford it and we are in a safe place with a bright future for the kids.

I had a discussion with my kids about them having children. They do not want any because of the state of the world. I was with them and told them that if I was in their shoes, knowing how great having kids is - I would not have any either.

I simply would not want them to live in the world I will leave behind.
Compelled pricing is quite rare, for example when regulators used it as an alternative to breaking up the original phone monopoly. If they don't admit there's a monopoly that should be subject to special regulations or face immediate break up then its not clear why they are forcing supposedly normal market participants to specific pricing.

It's a shame there's so many different names for a set of very related (or identical?) concepts. For example wikipedia says "tagged union" is also known as "variant, variant record, choice type, discriminated union, disjoint union, sum type, or coproduct".

It would be great if they stopped doing business in that state. The government could then assert ownership over all their infrastructure, divide it up among smaller local governments, who could then provide competitively-priced municipal broadband service.

That would be amazing.
> Straight from the gnu's mouth!
>
> "The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0)."

That gnu's mouth spoke 3 other clauses, and finished up with:

> A program is free software if it gives users adequately *all* of these freedoms. [emphasis mine]

>> But the purpose of the AGPL has nothing to do with people using the software in ways that the license chooser doesn't like
>
> Yes it is. If you wrote a network program, and you specifically don't like the idea that someone can modify it and then host that modified version for users without letting them have the source code, then the AGPL is a tool that nicely expresses your intent.

Ok, let's stick with "The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose". We're talking about running the software here, not modifying it or hosting it. You can run the program as you wish. For any purpose -- what purpose are you claiming is disallowed? "For the purpose of running it on my server without giving out my changes" is not about running it, that's about something incurred as a result of running it. Which is unfortunate, I agree; it would be nicer if all obligations were only incurred when distributing it. But that still doesn't restrict the running part.

But never mind, this is too much of a semantic argument at this point. I was trying to understand why the AGPL bothers you more than the GPL. I get the argument that it triggers a condition based on usage rather than distribution, but given that the condition does not restrict the usage, I'm not sure why you care. Is it a principle? I agree that it feels a little messy, but given my understanding of the core goal of copyleft licenses, it actually feels to me to be pretty close to a minimal encroachment beyond the GPL that still satisfies the original goal of the GPL for server-side software.

> For instance, the GPL has turned out to very nicely suit corporate interests. The copyright holder of a GPLed software component has a competitive edge over the licensees. They have to abide by the license and release all their changes, which you can help yourself to; meanwhile, you can have a proprietary version in parallel.

Yeah, and my previous message didn't adequately cover this part. AGPL+CLA has a purpose and expresses an intent beyond the intent behind GPL. I'm personally more concerned with the evolution of the software I and others release, even if I find this corporate usage of the AGPL somewhat fascinating. If I understand correctly, your philosophical objections to the AGPL aren't based on this corporate scenario either, though?

You care about restrictions on usage and want as few restrictions as possible, so a corporation building upon BSD code internally without releasing changes doesn't bother you. But AGPL does bother you, because that corporation (or any other user) would need to consider the requirements of running that code. Do I have that right? (Or strictly speaking, running and modifying the code, since there are no requirements placed upon just running it if you haven't changed anything.)

1) What we're really doing with this first product is predicting how price impacts conversion rate. That's been a relatively simple thing to measure in my experiences. It's more difficult to do things like predict a customer's probability of buying based on their order history.

2) Yes so we don't have a case study comparing us to manually setting discounts, but the task gets pretty time consuming quickly if you want to update the discount daily (or more frequently) and personalize the discount (which is one of the features we're planning on adding).

Hey hey, no way does it deserve to be put in the same class as the four agreements. That’s legit.
Yes - agreed. There’s a clear use case for indie content, but tooling around editing/modifying/color/lighting has to improve, and rendering engines or converters need to get better. FWIW it doesn’t seem like a dead-end tech to me though; more likely a gateway tech to cost improvements. We’ll see.

It also advertises as having Bluetooth LE (which I take to be equivalent to marketing speak name BT Auracast), which I hope starts to arrive soon. Im more interested in its use on speakers, but I love the idea of ambient listening experiences all around us that we can tune into or share ourselves.

> At some level we're tacitly acknowledging that the vast ocean of content and complexity we've created is beyond what is desirable or even healthy to effectively evaluate.

I don't think there's enough useful and organized information to evaluate. There's no reason for everyone to be stuck in a vast ocean of content labeled with a handful of vague categories, except that that's just the way that someone decided to make it.

If I want to figure out if I want to try a game, I can go to steam and watch a trailer, look at the tags, and still have no idea if the game is worth playing. How do I make a decision?

If I just watch 3 minutes of a lets play, or a live stream, I can get an idea of what the game is like. This youtube channels thing is giving us exactly that experience.

Opening a youtube video directly, on the other hand, is an entire ordeal. It's slow to load, takes up a bunch of ram, puts the video in your history and messes up the minigame of trying to micromanage the algorithm so you don't end up with bad recommendations. It's hard to just simply watch a few seconds of a bunch of videos to get a vibe.

There's so much low hanging fruit in terms of content organization/discovery, it drives me insane that the experience is generally so bad, and getting worse.
