> they will start banning certain shoe technologies during races now

I think that's already the case, isn't it? For instance: https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/sports/vienna-marathon-win...

> they cannot ban athletes from using illegal shoes during training.

I don't understand why you would in the first place, what would be the reasoning here?

I think one reason for anti-doping regulation is health, you don't want athletes breaking a world record one day and die the next. And doping during training definitely gets you some advantage, sometimes even years after, so the competition is no longer fair. But I don't see the harm with equipment such as shoes, if used only during training.
They call it gimbap and putting random shit in rice and seaweed is only considered a luxury in the west.
You should watch out, they have again updated their colours between version 3 and 4. This is the third time this has happened.

Words are still just words until they are acted on, but this is just my opinion and you are entitled to yours.

> So you think you can’t damage people’s psyche through words?

Not sure where you got that from, of course it is possible. But we are all gatekeepers of our own minds.

You seem to be ignoring my responses and trying to lead me further into extreme examples to trap me. Carry on if you feel you must, but at the end of the day we both have our opinions and we are entitiled to them.
Word2Vec, Glove and all of those should be forgotten. They remind me of all the people who were trying to develop NLP solutions with SPaCy, mostly failing, and explaining it had some value because 10% of it almost worked.

Not only do they have nothing to say (short of [0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ... ]) about words not in the dictionary (frequently critical to the meaning of documents) but they don't give consistent gains for many tasks because they contaminate words with alternate meaning that might be relevant but don't all address the disambiguation problem. BERT does, which is why BERT really was a breakthough in IR and NLP.

People who think academia is in a state of decline could use the graphs on this page as an index case

https://nlp.stanford.edu/projects/glove/

where notably they repeatedly project out N=20 points out of a 50 dimensional space in a way that makes it look like the network knows something about kings and queens or cities and ZIP codes. However, the nature of high dimensional spaces is that you find a projection that will make 20 randomly selected points in a 50-d space land exactly where you want them.

I was riding on the bus to NYC trying to train classical classifiers out of scikit-learn to distinguish words of various categories (gendering, part of speech, is it a color?, etc.) and found that it usually seemed to work up to N=20 examples or so but when you had more training examples performance fell apart after that.

I concluded that if you couldn't do that, it wasn't worthwhile to make a pipeline like

Word2Vec -> CNN -> word labels

or

Glove -> LSTM -> classification

and the results the company I worked for was getting trying to do the above didn't convince me otherwise.
Not just Postgres. It's in the SQL standard, and widely supported.
Exactly, also use some kind of design document tool that accepts comments (like Google Docs or Confluence) and try to get people to read and make notes _before_ any meetings.
Much salt: “fluoxetine pretreatment” “in a mouse model of sepsis.”

I’d be interested to see how this holds up in EHR data with the caveat that anyone with mental health issues likely has a million confounders.

But they don't say, so how can we tell? I'm not going to be vague with my comment: best thing to do in this sort of case is not to engage.

I worked for SUSE for 4 years and I like the distro, but I unhappily and reluctantly got used to the distro destroying its own root partition a couple of times a year.

Unfortunately the majority of the USA, even where people don't live, is valuable private property one way or another. Back when there were fewer people and especially agriculture was much more manual labor intensive, it simply wasn't possible to work every last bit of land, so building new houses at the edge of town was not generally a huge problem (not that people didn't care about ownership, of course, but they cared less - i.e. it was cheaper). Today it is, since every bit of land you build houses on means removing that land from some other economic purpose.

I think a more apt description is the misconception that democracy supposedly means everybody gets their "equal proper timeshare of being considered correct".
> Which platform provides the same network effect?

None, obviously - every network is unique. However, that doesn't contradict the premise. If one accepts that continuing to use twitter makes one "part of the problem", a desire to read PG's tweets doesn't seem like a meaningful justification. In my view, the only justification is "I don't care how twitter operates" or "I think twitter's new mission is good".
There is no guarantee the hard drive is even in this landfill. Maybe someone swiped it out of his trash, maybe someone grabbed it out of the truck, maybe someone found it in the landfill a decade ago and took it home. The possibilities are endless, move on dude.

I have 100BTC on a hard drive that I then formatted (back in 2010-ish), it sucks but you move on.

Lastly, if not for throwing away the hard drive this guy would probably have a couple hundred dollars, maybe a couple thousand (from having sold it earlier). Instead he has a mythical $800M that will never materialize. I can't believe someone is actually that stupid so I assume this is a play for media attention, to what end I do not know (or care).
Thanks. I asked ChatGPT, and it said it couldn't store preferences.
TBH, it sounds like you don't quite know what you want yet. That's fine, but until you figure out what you're aiming at, you'll be plagued by FOMO until you nail it down. Realistically, you'll probably have to sit in this discomfort until you get a clearer vision.

Limit risk by requesting a reduced working schedule at your current gig and do more independent work in the time you get back.
Good opportunity to remember how fantastically amazing the human brain is: 86 billion neurons, each connected to thousands of other neurons, resulting in trillions of connections. Our most advanced research effort struggle to understand even a tiny scanned cube of it.

There have been some instances of people being inappropriately contacted by the police over things they wrote online. I think that this has largely stopped following the court judgment that I mention downthread. I think there's broad agreement here on what the police should and shouldn't be doing. The issue is whether it's actually accurate to paint a picture of the UK as a country where the police regularly harass people about their online postings. If people in the UK strike you as unduly unconcerned, consider the possibility that it's because this isn't actually happening to anything like the extent that some people on Twitter would like you to believe that it does.

By the way, you seem to be using 'the government' in a very broad 90s internet libertarian sense. The police in the UK are operationally independent of the government of the day. As Wikipedia explains:

> Police officers [in the UK] hold office and are not employees. Each officer is an independent legal official and not an "agent of the police force, police authority or government". This allows the police their unique status and notionally provides the citizens of the UK a protection from any government that might wish unlawfully to use the police as an instrument against them.
You'll find stores selling that stuff in even the most rural parts of central Asia and Africa these days. As long as there's a reasonably sized human settlement, someone's probably selling mobile devices even if there's no local network to use it with.

Ok, I see what you mean and I agree with you, it would not be a first time a company pulls this kind of trick.

But in this case it's not that the reason does not matter, it's that the reason is censorship/bad faith competition, and is obfuscated behind a mistake
And a lot more likely to (often correctly) say "you should not do this thing".
Access is not equal or interest is not equal? Minority participation in golf skyrocketed after Tiger Woods, but I’d argue the best athletes still far preferred basketball, football, etc over golf. Your argument also falls apart if you look at golf as a whole, where Asian women dominate the LPGA.
I assume there is also a black market for mature GitHub accounts. So you won't necessarily know if the maintainer is now a different person.
It seems to me that you've misread my original comment as stating that all feminists who spoke out against the misogyny of gender identity ideology on Twitter were banned. This isn't what I said or what I meant. To elaborate a bit more: in addition to the then-permanent bans, there was also a considerable amount of self-censorship amongst those who hadn't been banned (or had only been temporarily suspended), to avoid wording their views in such a way that may be disfavoured by Twitter's censorial policies.

JKR is an interesting counterexample for a number of reasons. One is that she was very careful and tempered in her language, as one may expect from an expert writer and of someone with her keen perception of language. If you search her tweets on this topic prior to Musk's ownership (e.g. "from:jk_rowling until:2022-04-14 trans" in the X search box) you'll see what I mean. Another is that she spoke out on this topic fairly late on, and so would have witnessed the censorship and been aware of how best to express her views around these limitations. There is also the fact that hers is and was one of Twitter's most-followed accounts and in practice that would give her more leeway in terms of freedom of expression.

I could search X to confirm to you what I personally witnessed with regard to feminists who aren't JKR being censored and banned, but that would take some effort and I'm not yet convinced that it would be worth it, given that you're engaging with an attitude of aggressive cross-examination rather than curiosity and open-mindedness. This is also why I enquired as to if it might change your view.

Comments from the left in the style of your posting is what finally made me stop voting for left leaning parties. I can not associate with so much hate and prejudice anymore. This rhetoric is alienating the center, but folks like you don't seem to care. But then again, you lost the election... And you still haven't learnt a single thing. The more aggressively you sweep everyone under the same rug, less and less people will be willing to support your causes.
Only upgrade I did from my old kindle paper white was to a water-sealed version. Really nice to take it to the beach or a pool then just hose it off when I’m done so it doesn’t have sand and such everywhere. Just less stressful to carry around in general.
>If free speech has no limit, that means you can't prevent people from arguing against the end of free speech.

As a more general approach to freedom, we can consider that freedom can only begin where it confirms others’ freedom. If we don’t act with reciprocity in mind, we are on the track to build some kind of hegemony, not to establish a society of free people.
Seems reductive.
I'm happy to see someone 'gets it' and know my comment was low grade. I am also irritated to see this subject with the "nothing to hide" theme anywhere it arises. It's a groundhog day nightmare subject where everyone seems to tirelessly dance around a fundamentally simple question with elaborate and irrelevant answers. I thought Glen articulated it all quite well years ago and was even annoyed that it had to go that far. I guess it's difficult for some to see an elephant in the room when it's shat in their eyes.

> Have you gotten any feedback in your current role about why you're stuck? The reasons can vary from the difference in expected behaviors from level to level, no room at level +1, your current company/manager not really caring about your advancement, etc.

I'm in a family-like company, so there is not much feedback giving. I'm trying to change a job, but there are few struggles: (1) I can't really improve salary that much due to OP, (2) the market is currently shit, (3) even if I find a job, it sets me back to square zero.

> Is this because you don't (or haven't had opportunities to) step up to lead/own chunks of work?

I did lead/own chunks of work. But it just seems not enough to justify leadership roles. I get the "it's impressive, but we need someone a BIT MORE qualified".

> Do you plan to do anything about this? It's hard to advance without some amount of self-improvement?

When I was younger, I dabbled in many areas: game dev, web dev, os dev, embedded, assembly, C, Java, JS, PHP, etc. Eventually I found my career and my niche, but due to certain luck (or lack thereof), combined with my young naivety, I didn't progress fast enough to the style of companies that deal with high load, and other mambo-jumbo tech. And now, I just have a lot of years of experience in mediocre companies/products.

> Are you saying that you're motivated enough to try to bootstrap multiple projects, and have started a SaaS that actually has paying customers?

I do. I have a lot of motivation when it comes to actually solve problems. I talk with customers, do development, and try to find new ways to market my SaaS. I just hate doing to for someone else when corporate politics is involved.

> A dictator who serves the people's interests is effectively concretizing that power

Wtf? No.

A dictator maintains all the power. The people have no power.

Just because the interests of the people are supported by the actions of a dictator does not mean the people have any power. Because they don’t…

Now you’re using the term “power” incorrectly.

The difference is that in a democracy the people can vote out corrupt individuals, at least theoretically.

That can’t happen in a dictatorship because, again, the people have no power.

fingerprint a unique user

I don't think this is correct, or at the least it's unfortunately phrased. If your fingerprint is so specific that it can distinguish unique users, it is covered under GDPR compliance. I don't know too much about the CCPA so not sure if it's the same there.

Yes, you are allowed to collect device statistics such as form factor, viewport size etc. But if you can distinguish between two different users with identical devices accessing your site at the same time, under GDPR you have an obligation to inform [14]. And if you can recognize a returning user across sessions, you also need consent.

> why is the healthcare system so broken in the first place, that you need to take charge of your own diagnosis and treatment

Doctors have many patients and limited time. Patients have one concern (themselves) with many more available hours to think about that one case.

It is no different than lawyers, teachers, etc etc. you have to advocate for yourself because you have much more time to dedicate to your situation than they do. Think of professionals as conduits of expertise that you can rely on to a degree but are best used to augment your passion for your situation.

In other words, I don’t think this particular issue warrants calling the healthcare system broken (though there are many other reasons to do so).
Physical gold is a common middle and upper middle class method of transferring internationally and protecting wealth. (Feel free to read that as tax evasion or money laundering - in these situations it’s often a matter of perspective)

If you’re trying to do it with millions of dollars equivalent, it’s not great but functions. $100k+? Very common, and remarkably easy compared to other options. During times of great social upheaval and war, it’s often about the only option that works historically.

It doesn’t really help the ultra wealthy as much, unless you’re talking nations during wartime type situations, due to physical logistics and security problems.

And the poor can’t afford anything anyway, so this kind of thing isn’t exactly a problem for them.

Honestly it sounds like you have a bit of a management problem if your engineers are building random stuff you don't need. I spend a decent amount of my time behind the scenes with the PM folks making sure the things we are building are the things we want to build, and then convincing people (often in a face saving manner) that what the business wants is what we all want (since they pay us.)

This generally works because I target the smaller companies and so actually making money is at issue, in a large enough org you can go half a decade before anything shakes up dumb stuff.
