The cabbies take is bizarre to me. Surely choosing to leave is part of reality, not a rejection of it? Why should living in reality require acceding to circumstances at every opportunity? Unless I misunderstand the context and this quote is

Well, no, we've already got rice. Maybe these people are making it better, but just the fact that rice is valuable doesn't justify anything on its own.

I found "Good software is always written in an idempotent way" sort of hilarious. Obviously idempotency is a powerful tool, but the confidence with which tfa demands it of all software was silly.

Specifically, it's less (made 220, although did have what I think was a strong offer due to internship that went well)

Over a long enough time period, a small scale organization is kind of likely to just get blown up by a catastrophe because it isn't big enough to absorb it. At least that would be my guess.

The mx keys is amazing. It feels so sexy to type on, and I can type far faster and more accurately than anything else I've used. I've also not charged the thing in months and it doesn't seem to care, which blows my mind.

To my understanding it's still hard to exploit this to steal information / break access / etc just because you'd need to know where the right bits were. On the other hand, if all we want to do is break our adversary&#x27

It might be hard to do a targeted attack. On the other hand, flipping random bits is likely to just start crashing stuff and / or producing incorrect results pretty reliably.

Well in an agrarian society property produce money though, right?

Holy cow was this unreadable. It kept pulling me in with something I was interested in, then never clearly explaining before jumping to the next thing. I oddly sort of enjoyed the whimsy of the writing, but I came away with essentially no n

Probably at least a little: logistics has improved substantially since then. Also the value of the stuff in the truck is up, I'm not sure how that plays in.

I think it existed before, controlled by larger parties (media etc, professional reviewers and critics). With the rise of the internet, there was a brief period where anyone could share their opinion with you, and sellers hadnt figured it o

Although as with any "common case performance improvement" this can be risky if what the common case is for a given server changes. We learned that this was what our server did when we launched in a new country and our auth server

If you want to delete your account, and your primary goal is to prevent future data going to the owner of the app from your device, why not just delete the app?

Ironically, I read this and thought "I like this and these people are doing the sort of things I like doing, maybe I should think about working with them if and when I need another job." Sample size of 1, but I imagine that's

This doesn't seem that crazy to me? I think Facebook is probably bad for these kids, but obviously that's not going to be facebooks perspective, and of course they are going to want to go after target demographics they don't

This fried my laptop and I assumed it was the stupid machines fault, I can't believe I'm just now learning windows itself is to blame. How is this bug even possible?

I guess the point being more that 1.2 million seems really quite low to do it properly, 24/7. Perhaps after all the steroids bezos doesn't need the help.

But Facebook is the fan-out link, which does seem special. everything on either other side is 1:1, and then Facebook fans it a million ways.

I feel bad for them, and I try to be nice because it's really $COMPANY_NAME I'm mad at, but they're so completely useless and you have to talk to them anyways. It's hard sometimes with the person actively wasting your ti

Oh yeah of course in a heartbeat. I think the main objection I have to apple / google hoarding my data isn't actually apple / google having them, it's that the government can make them fork it over and so them having it

Why would that be true? I don't understand the argument that black people would have avoided this. From what I can tell the only fix here is a hardcoded workaround outside the net, or a substantially more powerful architecture.

It's not obvious to me what black people would have done to fix this specific problem. Would they have said "oh we should make sure to test the algorithm on blurry images of people in a forest and make sure it doesn't get con

I see consistent mention of "2 radiologists review". Is there some feasible way to combine two of these models into some sort of metamodel and get a similar benefit? Like is two radiologist review a mechanical way of combining the

I'm very far against alcohol being restricted for consumption by minors. I think it's completely ridiculous and almost completely counterproductive.

But the bar to be better than a human in this case is also wickedly low. I basically can't do this. If it was absolutely necessary I would go out there and drive like 5 mph and be terrified the whole time, but otherwise I would just tr

Yep. I notice mention of this additional constraint from another comment. As far as I can tell the article is just incorrect since it misses this constraint up to that point, unless I'm just a clown and somehow not seeing it. The upsid
