We actually have a reasonable way to test for human biases in AI - perturb the input a bit and see how the AI responds - For e.g., change the name, change the gender etc. and we use them to measure if AI is fair. It is different question wh

I work at Amazon and I am not seeing the issue. Please send an email at hn_user_name@amazon.com if you are still seeing the issue and I will escalate internally.

Honestly speaking, what you are asking for is almost impossible. When you put 2 people in a room, you get politics. The best bet is probably be a contractor as you do not have to participate in these stuff (or they pay you to do so). Compan

I work at Amazon and all the disclaimers apply. The key difference I see with Amazon is that it is actually focus on individual customers. The general idea is to go from anecdote to generalized solution. They call it "peculiar" in

It is from the video.. However, I am not sure why it is alt-right conspiracy-lite. I can see 1, 3 and 4 being mostly true. I am not too sure about 2 - but expressing your thoughts can be a crime - lese majeste laws in Thailand come to mind.

I am really curious how a report like this can capture casual racism or antisemitism. When I was working in Switzerland a long time ago, one of the comments I heard frequently is that I am not like other Indians - I dress well, speak well a

I have been having similar discussions with my friends. My key takeaway is that if you are in the top 5 or 10%, US is a great place for you. Every place is open and your hard work (and a bit of luck) will take you a long way up. However, if

Sorry.. Legislatures has the power to delegate that work and has been delegated to the Secretaries of State. It has been called out in multiple court rulings.

If you think there is fraud, how come none of the cases made a claim of this being an actual case of fraud and win the case? Either you believe both sides were on the fraud and all the cases were frivolous or this is not a real case of frau

Isn't it your claim that proof is well-hidden and hence any argument to the contrary will just trigger the same defence that it is even more well-hidden? Which means, you are making an un-falsifiable statement and the burden of proof i

It is hard to answer without knowing the individual developers and the company you work at. I work at Amazon and if I were to approach the same problem, I would do something like the following: 1. Understand if the consumers of the API have

For me, the more amazing thing is that we are able to detect 2 neutron stars merging from 130 million light years away. Just curious how sensitive these instruments need to be and our ability pick signals from the noise.

Anywhere, but in US (I guess). I have been thinking of trying to do something similar, but I am afraid of unexpected medical expenses and losing all of my savings on medical emergencies. I wonder if folks in US have a potential solution.

This seems to be a very cynical view. There also seems to be an expectation that people should stand in either end of all issues. Why not take his for his word that there are times he is conflicted and he is good at communication?

It seems to me like a poor joke - He likely meant that by being a white male, he is not helping out on the diversity ratio.. not that he has undesirable identity. He could have better phrased it as 'yeah.. I just joined and that did no

The key difference is whether you are paid in US for whatever you do. If it is a business meeting, you do not earn any income in US (your pay is in your home country). If it is work, it means that you are getting paid in US for something yo

Given the emotional argument, here is another way to think about it - do you believe in the process and the court system? The person(s) most affected by it, the 2 candidates are making those calls. If you believe everything is corrupted and

I moved to Seattle from India 3 years ago and medical care does not exist in US. Most doctors are not taking in new patients and general consultations are months out. You go to urgent or emergency care because that is the only place that wo

So, does that mean 95% of internet users are facing even worse quality of service? or does it mean that given a very small number of participants so far, starlink is able to allocate more bandwidth to everyone? I remember reading an analysi

It is not so simple. We do not act in a world with perfect information to predict the supply and demand curve. There are only 65,000 H1B in a year of which 20,000 are prioritized for people with a masters degree in US. Given the economy of

While supply and demand is a good model, it is at the end of day, still just a model. Even as a model, it is not easy to apply to real-life situations. Measuring supply and demand is not easy. Constraints on supply and demand change all the
