It's Soviet, so <= 1991 (and there are references to 1991 and post-1991 updates). There's a link at the top of the article to a similar article about this chip's predecessor, "developed in 1982". It appears they

It sounds like mental health care is in a bad state in many places. There is an illusion that the US system means we don't have the difficult waits you describe in the UK... that's not my experience as someone seeking care. Part o

I often hear treatment promoted, but it's interesting that I rarely hear a topic right next to this come up in such discussions: a for-profit healthcare system that not-only leaves these people behind, but helps to put many of them the

For me, getting better at this came out of introspecting on a song lyric... "I crucified my hate and held the world within my hand." My introspection started with committing to not using the word "hate" for a year, but i

I'm not an economist by any stretch of the imagination (I'd love to see a response from someone who is!). But I do work on math and software systems that manage a sizable marketplace with a goal of efficiently balancing competitio

I've tried repeatedly over the last 25 years, in Python, with a lot of success for large amounts of computation. Architecture and algorithms matter so much more than limitations like the GIL, slow function calls, etc. And in my exper

This is good advice. I had a first year CS student at my alma matter randomly reach out to me for general guidance on LinkedIn. Two years later we have a rich mentor/mentee relationship. Related... Mayuko is a software engineer who has

For context, I'm a very experienced software engineer (I shipped products before most of my coworkers were born) and I've been using Copilot for 6-8 weeks while creating a challenging (and therefore fun!) new system. > This is

From my point of view it's the proliferation of sources of (especially monetized) information competing for attention. In the 1970s, major US cities would have ~10 radio stations, ~5 TV stations, 2 major newspapers, and no access to on

I've spent almost all of the last decade as a first and second level manager and recently returned to an IC engineering role. I don't think any company large enough to have a handful of managers has homogeneity in what you're

Also not a lawyer, but I've been around ML for a while. The question makes perfect sense to me! It takes some amount of time to comply with a takedown notice. For example, time passes between receiving Alice's notice and taking do
