I read that and I'm still no clearer about how to do anything about this, though as a user of both pydantic and fastapi (and having mandated their adoption in my org), I'm extremely motivated to do something about this. Can anyone

Another reminder that no-one is irreplaceable. I'm sure GCC will continue without him, one way or another.

I wonder if anyone has some thoughts on the application of methods like this in the realm of machine learning modelling? I'm very interested in the concept and can see there must be a link but haven't yet thought my way into it

Good. Speaking as a foreigner, it's unbelievable what gets tolerated in supposedly the richest country the world has ever known. I'm sure the company can agree to let people go to the toilet or whatever and we will all roll on.

Australian here. Our rules allow you to leave if you've got a reason to be gone longer than 3 months. My sister lives overseas and has come back twice and been allowed to leave each time (at great expense). The rule is specifically abo

I think there are weaknesses to Schiller's argument, but the idea that it shouldn't be presented or isn't valid in some way is different to me. I think Schiller is backed up pretty powerfully by Banks' own words regardin

I'm glad they did that. It's a series of books that really challenges you to build a world inside your head.

Thanks for writing this. I remember getting into Banks only a couple of years before his passing, so I'm really grateful for the people who have kept going with critical thought regarding his work and who he was.

This is great. Bayes' theorem is such a simple principle, which is precisely why it's so powerful.

Not knowing this myself, could someone explain the attraction in using a web scripting framework for stuff like this? I get that this particular example makes the whole thing seem fairly straightforward, but have never really heard why peop

That seems like a rather large carve-out. Fortunately a lot of use cases won't really need to worry about something like that (e.g. exploratory analysis), in the context of it breaking your company.

This is interesting. China can't cover up the true scale of the outbreak because the rate of infection overseas quickly gives the game away if they are publishing very low estimates of domestic infection.

This paper is great. Every beginner data scientist should be forced to study its implications, because they can be summed up to "anyone acting like a man with a hammer is actually an idiot with no clue". Not surprising it has surv

Back in the 2003-04 SARS outbreak, the cause was partly a laboratory in Beijing that let the virus slip out accidentally. Fast forward 17 years. The virus looks like it did not originate in the seafood market but was potentially taken there

I remember in my high school every computer was a windows machine that ran Novell Net ware on boot. So some dude brought in a Linux distribution on a diskette and found he could mount anything on the network and do as he pleased. He was hon

This is a great read, thanks for posting. Anyone know/care to comment on what this kind of chicanery looks like in games being made now?

Yeah, the fastest I've ever gone in a plane was due to something trying to make it to Sydney for curfew. Can really get nuts sometimes.

For information, it's the "Petersham Pause" or "Marrickville Moment" :) There should also be the "Tempe Tumult" because you can basically reach up and touch one of the bastards at that stage. Flying around
