It's funny, I am married with a child, do my best and my wife too, but sometimes she gets dragged into meme-expectation that take her a long time to recover from. I cant see nor understand much of the source of these: Im an immigrant a

Well think of it that way, the policy might be here, the punishment planned for and the monitoring in place. Then ofc there s a way to bypass it to debug prod incidents without a lawyer present, and so anyone can read anything. I hope you r

Well I feel the clearest thing we can say about 18th century France is that they completely derailed the pattern that had lasted for millenia: yes it is possible to try to behead your way into taking over the country and place no king for a

Heh im French, and when time came to emigrate because I had become fluent in English and tired of France, the choice between the US and China was trivial: I chose China. It's more atheist, safer, more optimistic generally. I think we i

Sorry, windows 98 running in JS is way way WAY more impressive. It's just insane.

The communist party is as accountable as the CIA. It works the same way, handwave a little national security here, assassimate a little critic there. The CIA is not Chinese. But, Im not saying the department of energy is the CIA, Im saying

Then they can do a glocal model with 10 regions grouped into 3 semi global groups, so when there s a global outage, it can only be on one of these ?

Keep the one you have now and pick a better GPU?

by xwolfi 4y ago
But you can have 3. Why did you choose 30? In my company we are split in 3, US, EU, APAC, and we have the same issue with global outage for stuff we could have just managed regionally. For all the savings of the global architecture, they di

Yup I was gonna say, we keep everything very well organized like worker ants but then in 300 hundred years, who cares who married who, who worked where, who thought what beyond passionate historians. There simply is no value in minute detai

Im in China myself and I dont mind if it's a lab leak, better than saying we re degenerate Pangolin eaters :D However, it's hard to be too trusting of the US, I want to believe them but they just shot 3 balloons in hysterical pani

I ve worked in an equivalent of lending tree. Literally no one in our company, no one, cared about loans. We were a marketing front for banks, spoke only to banks, optimized "funnels" to, well, funnel the poor souls to them, whate

"every major social network" is a very recent sub continent on the internet and didnt replace most of it. I find reddit super exciting as well, it's THE place to talk quickly with random english speakers and I wish that exist

Absolutely not, it would produce 0 value since it cant generate interesting insight. Ask it why cow's eggs are better than monkey's eggs, will it reply "wait are you trying to trap me here, I know im just a software but cows

I investigated divorce months before marrying and we made sure that if it had to happen, like to 55% of mariages around us, we d make it as painless as possible rather than total chaotic surprise. I suppose there must be a corporate equival

But what if we need it for critical processes, what if we receive loosely constrained input, what if we want to change it so often that bugs must happen ? (or are you a sort of manager that think bugs can be entirely prevented?) Why are exc

Hum, panic as in stop all work ? I like that in Java, units of work can continue after an unhandled exception because you know, sometimes, your software is used by many people in many input variants and say, if you re doing a trading backen

But how does it reduce inequality ? Isn't it just money and nothing else is solved ? Why wasnt the recipient rich in the first place ? Aren't there factors in his initial state that 500$ a month won't fix and we risk having h

Not at all, I come from France, and we've been robbed by taxation since the country started. There was a time where priests, from the church, came to collect in exchange of telling us all was well, we were at the position God wanted us

But to be fair if a company can continue to operate or even grow while laying off employees, were these employees necessary in the first place ? I mean, should profit be given to employees, or owners ? Should company sacrifice their profit

It is deterministic, no ? Do they have some entropy source they use? Maybe it's chaotic like you and me, but it cant be non deterministic, it'd mean it doesnt even really answer questions and just spout random tidbits :s https:&#

And Im sure adult sites are full of non trivial interesting problems and could be managed relatively ethically. As for the interview problem you face, it's due to offer and demand. I work in an investment bank in Hong Kong, we need ide

Well I tend to agree but you seem to think biology evolved in a vacuum but it evolved inside an information source and we're all the information processors: ML having to process the same information but at scale, in the grand scheme, i

It's weird, like, does he pay you to drum up support ? It s a rust code that read a very complex json dsl to do queries, I haven't seen any sort of potential. Your use case even seems to be a UNION and not even a JOIN ?

Not sure of the value of this tidbit but I heard that in the US, blacks suicided a lot less than whites (quick google seems to say rate of black suicide is a third of white) and it could be because they grow up explaining their issues with

I can agree that the american transparency is a model, even if it fails some rare times (what I hate the most is when they do the whole circus around a terrible lie, with all the appearance of transparent government, but it's rare enou
