I spent the better part of 5 years playing with IMAP. This is a huge step in the right direction but there’s a lot with email this is missing: - Nobody reads or interacts with emails anymore, they use threads. Threading is one of the most i

As a bit of a meta point it’s a bit astonishing how good Cloudflare is at PR and community management. The sentiment I’ve seen here in the past is overwhelmingly pro-Cloudflare. Every now and then they’ll publish a hit piece on AWS here and

Developers are pretty bad about this sort of thing. Back when this article was written, GitHub didn’t have its automatic scanning and you could just search “site:github.com intext:sk_live_” to find hundreds of Stripe live secret keys that w

Copyright laws are outdated and horrific in the majority case, I don’t think anyone will miss it here. I think the closest we will get to fully autonomous AI byproduct privatization is making it possible to claim ownership over hyperparamet

This is a myth, the 90th percentile income earner for men isn’t that high of a salary (iirc around 135k$) and most successful tech and finance careers would fall into that category. For better or worse the passively rich now inhabit the 97t

I hear you on privacy, but would you rather the data be given to MatchGroup who can sell and use that as they wish, or to the government that at least has an incredible amount of oversight and has to go thru greatly transparent lengths to m

If dynamic in real life is 1:2 then it’s 1:1000 on dating apps. Also I would actually blame MatchGroup here, they’ve been fighting dating apps with better models for years, every company they swallow has adopted the same bad ethics (case an

Anecdotally agree, I tend to think of SF as a special case due to the extreme gender imbalance and the general sprawled out nature of the bay area

Possibly, as disgusting as it sounds this is a pretty good use case for web3. Federate identity via blockchain to prevent bad actors, require a $1 or so NFT to use the app to prevent scammers from mass-botting, and some regular security and

To be fair this is not entirely due to social dynamics but rather due to MatchGroup companies following identical monetization patterns. They’re just capitalizing on male desperation and artificially widening or narrowing the gap depending

We tried it, was super buggy and had display issues on smaller devices. FWIW we also tried cal.com and had equally many issues — the first week we tried self-hosting and it must’ve crashed half a dozen times losing a whole bunch of bookings

At least this is an improvement from the “hacker known as 4chan” days. I’m a bit confused by this report though, did they do forensic analysis on the devices of all employees who would’ve had access or only some and rely on interviews for t

Essentially yes! We usually try to follow some sort of theoretical user story/paint some sort of narrative but at the end of the day it’s just adjusting the mocking. Just now realizing notionalizing isn’t a widely accepted term for thi

Essentially creating fake data that looks very realistic and creates narratives that would span real use cases. Some of this is simple (fake names with faker), some of it is a bit more manually guided (customer-specific terminology and spec

We do that too but notionalizing for us is usually creating data that looks and behaves realistically but is actually fake. (A side benefit to this is that we can then use it for demos!)

I work for a B2E company that has a structure similar to Salesforce. We test in production all the time even for our secure environments where the data is highly sensitive. Re: data, it’s a somewhat common practice to notionalize data (thin

Surprised no one has commented this but the latency requires the model to be trained in tiny fragments on each device which is currently a field of research that is being explored. As it stands now basically all of a model needs to be loade

Given how many search-paired images Bing has I'd expect them to have a much better dataset and much better quality creations, so this is a little disappointing. So far the best I've seen is B^Discover (uses Kakao's Karlo mode

It's unclear to me based on the wording in the bill whether this only applies to government devices. IANAL but sounds like it would also extend to devices with government profiles installed, i.e. any contractor that has USG MDM on thei

Note on the sinusoidal encoding, the reason it’s used is generally speaking twofold: 1 - To encode position somehow (which author details) 2 - Because sine is easy “noise” for the network to learn. There’s also a bunch of cool tricks here e

A large portion of the ML community (rightly) discredits Google papers because: - they rarely provide the data or code used so it's basically "i swear it works bro" research - what they achieve is usually through having the m

I don't think end-to-end encryption means what most people in this thread thinks it means. Yes, it's encrypted between devices. However, when I open Whatsapp on a new device, it pulls all my message history for the last 5 years. I

There are often way more than 4 million people within 150 miles of populated cities in the States (which consequently is also a large portion of the population). For many people 2-4mbps per cell is less than 1 bps which I think is unreal. M

A good principle to abide by in software is that if the majority of people are complaining about something being too difficult to use, it is probably too difficult to use. Someone who uses it every day and is heavily invested in the softwar

I’m willing to bet someone `JSON.stringify`’d the entire user object without realizing the password hash is in there. The broader conversation I think here is facilitating a shift to passwordless. Magic links, OAuth, Yubikeys all make passw

+1, also this is a teacher model. The implications are huge here as AWS will likely spin this into an offering like they did with their other AI products. Building a model downstream of GPT-3 is difficult and usually yields suboptimal resul
