Can’t replay the counter factual, but for those that lived it, there were regrets… and most reasoned there was a better way about the changing of power.

Also, it’s not like it was all happy republicanism after the terror, there was a new elite replacing the old (Napoleons) and he was a petty noble anyway, plenty of the aristocracy stuck around, and said emperor did his best to marry into Europe’s aristocracy. Seems a bit like musical chairs, don’t you think? Plenty of France was still royalist too anyway after it all. I don’t think the narrative is so clear, except everyone realized you can’t beat down your peasants too hard.

Even Peter the Great, traveling through France in the 1700s, wondered how long the wealth disparity could last, having seen Versailles and the peasants from the road.
I love Koreans. Come on, let's all get on board. The Germans never did a Sauerkraut fridge. :)
Yes, exactly. Because people in power decide to keep wealth for themselves and people who look like themselves, and because when minorities start to gain power, then the majority crushes them.
Well, people have used the phrase "end homelessness", which I take to mean no homeless.
Does being Turing Complete enable you to have a programming language ins8de a programming language?
Do any engineers actually like DD? Execs/managers seem to love DD and get upsold all the time on it and ask engineers to implement some of their half-baked features. It seems like its good for alerts and dashboards for infrastructure teams. But as an engineer its a pain and using it for log analysis is much more annoying than just tracking down the actual relevant logs and grepping.
Since you seem relatively open minded and objective about it let me ask you this:

How much did you get paid for doing all those consulting gigs on DEI topics?

Just to point out, even as you highlight the hollowness of the trend passing through, you were a part of the industry it created and a beneficiary of people's sudden interest in the symbolism of it even if it achieved little. Tons of people who could justify some kind of vague contribution/expertise were glad to make money off of the political need to pursue this, and be seen doing it.

It sounds like you were one of the more respectable contributors. Others were hangers-on, making money or careers off people's fear of being accused of not toeing the new party line, regardless of how hollow it was. VPs/deans/executive directors of diversity and inclusion at whatever institutions they could sell their services to.

Whether it was good or not at its core, some people had a vested interest in it continuing. It happens equally with every new trend that is hard to set real goals against. (or achievable ones, until it's found out to be empty).

Is the project available anywhere? I have that hardware, and am on the lookout for demo platforms for the ML/DSP library I am developing (https://github.com/emlearn/emlearn-micropython).
I likely will, since I like building engines! It's not something I aim to productize though. Also, the more immediate win will be getting jank into Unity and Unreal.
What nonsense. Did you hear me proposing nationalizing all industry? Having a state ideology? Closing the borders? Removing freedom of speech? No, what I proposed was giving people free housing. Another thing I'd propose is giving people free healthcare. Both these things are good ideas. Mentioning the USSR doesn't make them bad ideas.
Anecdotally, I've been experimenting with Phi-4 the past hour or so (so, yeah, not very comprehensive) and it's certainly a strong model. Definitely better than the previous Phi models.

> Even this is not that unusual; AFAIK, in recent AMD x86 processors, a separate built-in ARM core takes control on power up,

Good point. I think most modern motherboards (and all server boards) have a "management engine" that prepares the board on power up and even serves some functions during operation. I believe that that's what supports IPMI/iDRAC even when the host is running.

I don't think that changes the situation WRT the variety of H/W for the Pis through their history and even at present.
Because in living memory, we didn't have to operate headlights. We would turn them on, and sometimes turn on brighter ones.
It's totally ungracious to downvote this. My grandma had similar issues in her legs, exactly after the COVID vaccine. And I've heard many other stories from people. Now that this news is coming out the people that don't want to give up their strong believes are downvoting this. People, please think a little bit more beyond what politicians say.
How are you storing them, and what do you use to read/visualize/analyze them? I'd imagine just putting them up in a UI becomes a needle-in-a-haystack issue. Are you programmatically analyzing them?
I'm talking about buying the absolute cheapest possible used experimental helicopter- homemade by a stranger from a cheap kit. I would posit that if I were willing to take that risk- probably buying a model with know design and reliability issues to save money- I'd also just park it in the backyard, skip the maintenance and run it on the cheapest pump gas I can find!

The ones I'm seeing in the 20k range are mostly the "Mini 500." Wikipedia suggests that maybe as few as 100 were built, with 16 fatalities thus far (or is it 9- which it says in a different part of the article?). But some people argue all of those involved "pilot error."

I suppose choosing to fly the absolute cheapest homemade experimental aircraft kit notorious for a high fatality rate is technically a type of pilot error?
I think he means to say that had the other European nations not declared war on France with all the grand coalitions, the casualty rate wouldn’t be what it was.

I think that is partially true.

It's the first sentence of the article.

On Saturday, Triplegangers CEO Oleksandr Tomchuk was alerted that his company’s e-commerce site was down.

If a scraper is making enough requests to take someone else's website down, the scraper's requests are being made unreasonably quickly.

> It seems to me you're doing at least 1 thing here, and acknowledging that such DEI program was performative in the first place.

It only seems that way because it absolutely is an acknowledgement that the DEI program was performative in the first place.

> This kind of announcement seems extremely self defeating and unlikely to please anyone and piss off just about anyone that cares about this in any way shape or form, on either side.

No, it will please people who felt that DEI programs were hurting productivity and taking jobs away from more deserving candidates... and that's exactly why they'd make this announcement. I suspect there may have even been some pressure applied behind closed doors with the threat of lawsuits and government oversight on this matter.

I'm confident there's a ton of people cheering about this. I just don't want to know those people.
This is obviously true, but misses the point

Even if there are 10 beds and 10 people, if 9 people can afford to pay 2000 for their beds, and that last one can only afford 500, that last one is still going homeless

Because the person selling the last bed is going to want around 2000 for it, just like the other 9 are paying

Edit: and no, telling them they have to give up that bed for 500 is not a real option
This is the same as California.

EDIT: I was wrong, and explain it as a comment below.
Company values are bullshit.

Corporations only care about making money, no matter the damage they cause in their profit-seeking motive. All else is fluff.
When you say "things", I assume you don't mean "to change deeply held values and cultural traditions".
I think the problem is actually the opposite, and that people today often presume their headlights are "automatic", and that no decisions by the driver are necessary.

In the 90's you'd get into a car at night, and if you couldn't see the dashboard, you'd know you need to turn your lights on. This nudge doesn't happen anymore because modern dashboards are also illuminated while headlights are off. This is why you see many people driving around with DRLs only at night in cities. The legacy situation is that people "operated" their headlights, and today, many presume they don't have to.

As a German married to a Korean, it was a definite upgrade to my Sauerkraut.

Jokes aside, the kimchi fridge is indeed quite common in Korea, and the household justification is typically that you don't want the kimchi's aroma to interact with all your other refrigerated food supply.

Especially the older generation makes kimchi infrequently in large batches, and it's very common to share the fruits of the labor among the different households in the family (you often leave with it on family visits), so it's routinely well stocked with the remains of various batches.

I'm most familiar with the single or double drawer types, integrated into the more modern kitchen aisles, making it easy to tower above and access the tubs/jars/containers. Since you usually wind up having one anyway, you're also gonna use it.
People who have published books recently on Amazon have noticed that immediately there are fraud knockoff copies with the title slightly changed. These are created by AI, and are competing with humans. A person this happened to was recently interviewed about their experience on BBC.
I would not be surprised while the OP were sending applications to DEI programmes, most of them went to Asians. Which I assume this still fits the PoC PoV of DEI.
People are on the street because they don't have homes. If they had homes, they would be less depressed, less drug addicted, and less destitute and less likely to cause public problems. So just give them homes.

A major upside: if you lose your job, you won't be at risk of becoming homeless! it would allow you to take a much stronger negotiating position with your boss. It would allow you to take a much stronger position with your landlord regarding rent increases too.
The "big book" for my decade-old car is 387 pages. A few pages are dog-eared-- like the handwritten radio reset code-- but if there's a note in there about my headlights... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And I despise modern LED headlights.
It’s funny you single out trucks. Most all new-ish cars these days have the same headlights.

Oh trucks sit higher? Is that it? Should we exclusively develop low profile cars/trucks/SUVs? I think second-order effects would prove that this line of reasoning is a disaster.

So now what? Make headlights less bright? Is that safer, when you’re driving down a wooded road at night without any other cars around?

That's right -- Sun refused to donate the JavaScript tm to ECMA (now Ecma), MS jumped in and offered "JScript" which no one wanted, so the standard ended up with the ECMAScript name (still five first letters all capitalized), which also no one wanted.
Damn! After reading this I was surprised by the fact that this sounded very familiar.

I actually "practiced" a lot like this because I was always amused to notice how we could basically "see through" objects with this double-image thingy (see experiment below).

So I decided to film myself... and I was actually already doing a divergence! Not convergence!

Thanks a lot for your comment which made me realize that.

Experiment:

1. place your phone (handy size/shape for the experiment) in front of one eye (X), at about 20cm.

2. close the other eye (Y) and look at your phone

3. Open Y and look straight without focusing on the phone. By blinking Y, the double-image should appear/disappear, as if it was unveiling what's behind your phone.

4. By closing X and with Y open, looking at your phone, you should see it displaced from where it was when X was open and Y was closed. The size of this displacement is equal to the size of the double-image transparent part.

> The difficult issue is some people don't want to go to a homeless shelter because they want to maintain a level of freedom while others fear they will be robbed/raped at the shelter.

A bit of a strawman, social service doesn't have to mean homeless shelter, so no, no one is forcing anyone to do anything. Problem is in many places at least where I live, there just isn't enough money to serve all the people that need the various levels of help.
I can see this. I knew someone who was homeless for a time.

I asked her where she slept. She said "you don't sleep". You don't even have to run an experiment to know that sleep deprivation, even in your own home, causes psychosis. Now add the shock of being exposed to filth for the first time, poor climate control (homeless don't walk around with multiple layers of Patagonia and a nice backpack to stash them in as it warms up), the very real threat of sexual or physical assault, the shocking awareness that you are now "one of them" and know that a sizable percentage of your acquaintances would immediately distance themselves from you if they knew your plight. We're not even talking about food and vitamin quality here.

So I guess the OP really meant Starship 2.

I'd recommend listening to the first hour of the podcast this is taken from just as he was more candid than I thought he would be.

Zuckerberg at points brings up how the EU as is very defensive and has taken social media companies to court for the sum of 30 billion (never mentioning why). He laments how the US government need to be more protective of US tech companies overseas specifically naming the EU. When talking about Dana he says how he will explicitly help with them work with difficult foreign governments (be that through how he did it with the UFC or his relationship with the new administration).

It sounded quite like they're preparing to more confrontational with the EU and he at one point mentions how he thinks the new admin is going to protect them more with foreign countries.
There could be a ghost town with 50 million homes in the middle of the desert, but if there are no grocery stores or jobs there then homeless people can't move there.

The raw number of empty houses is irrelevant. Especially when some of those houses are temporarily uninhabitable, e.g. houses being renovated, or houses in LA right now near the wildfires.
It's funny how history repeats. The web originally grew because it was a way to get "an API" into a company. You could get information, without a phone call. Then, with forms and credit cards and eventually with actual API's, you could get information, you could get companies to do stuff via an API. For a short while this was possible.

Now everybody calls this abuse. And a lot of it is abuse, to be fair.

Now that has been mostly blocked. Every website tries really hard to block bots (and mostly fail because Google funds their crawler millions of dollars while companies raise a stink over paying a single SWE), but it's still at the point that automated interactions with companies (through third-party services for example) are not really possible. I cannot give my credit card info to a company and have it order my favorite foods to my home every day, for example.

What AI promises, in a way, is to re-enable this. Because AI bots are unblockable (they're more human than humans as far as these tests are concerned). For companies, and for users. And that would be a way to ... put API's into people and companies again.

Back to step 1.

they perpetuate the idea that any severe debt someone might be in is always the fault of the individual

Irresponsibility -> debt is just one of the multiple motivations for the fictional contestants. Others include medical costs for family members, being impoverished by someone else's bad actions, being threatened for a debt incurred by someone else, and so on. You're arguing against a simplistic and inaccurate summary of the story by generalizing from the main character.
Length of remembrance aside, the idea of fame as immortality has always confused me on different grounds. It's not how fame works: we remember factoids, not people. It's a bit different if the fame is a work of art, but then the thing with immortality (sort of) is the art, not the person that made it. I might remember 7 things about Teddy Roosevelt, which are admittedly very cool and impressive things, but those things do nothing to represent the complex individual he actually was.

This may be something I'm making up, but I have the feeling that the fame = immortality concept came out of legacy: people wanting to create a family that continues on after themselves (and is rich, powerful, etc). Which makes sense, because then we're talking about a logical extension of the reproductive instinct. But in the modern world even that seems unreachable to me: we're so utterly different from our grandparents that we might as well be aliens, and the same will probably hold true for our own grandchildren.

I guess all that puts me in the Mike Tyson school of thought on legacy: "We're just dead. We're dust. We're absolutely nothing."
They both have their place. If you get a requirement wrong you can prove an incorrect system. In a complex system I doubt you can understand it from the requirements and so we should assume they are wrong. A test by constrast can (but need not!) be obviously correct but it is correct one for that case and so doesn't say anything about the rest.
Congratulations! The fact you and your team managed to built Tantivy is a huge contribution to open source.

As someone who never managed to built a fond relationship with Apache Lucene based products (Solf, Elastic). I was extremely happy to see Tantivy in open source.

BM25 scoring, proper asian language support, speed, memory foot prints, etc - amazing job! Thank you so much!

https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy

IMHO Datadog made a smart move!

If Tantivy itself just stays permanently under Apache2 licence and find a sustainable path to co exist with the rest of open source community - it's all good guys. You are more than deserve a commercial success.
