This is an American interpretation. Here in the US, cones, lights, or lane-blockers are used to close exits.

Culturally, its because American's won't read a sign and follow the instructions if we can still "do" it. You have to physically block us, and its too expensive to change all the signs.

Yeah but the weekly WBR where the directors ask what a cell means on the DataNet report but the data isnt' sussed out so the L5 Data science guy that reports to the L7 PMT will spend the next week changing SQL to produce that requested view for the next week WBR.

Many L6 promos over the years went out to folks who could quickly and accurately build WBR decks that gave L8s the visibility they wanted.

So maybe Bezos is the lawyer, and all the directors are accountants.

Definitely lawyer and accountant.

PRFAQs, COEs, and WBRs.

Meta execs are probably wondering when the rest of the crowd just realizes what Facebook is and determines if they want to exchange their privacy for their services.

Who is even surprised at this point?

For now, but not for long.

Sadly, XRB (Raiblocks, formally) was designed that way. Instant, fee-less.

Problem was, there were races and some bugs, which caused a lot of reconciliation problems for exchanges that listed it.

It dropped after 2017, and AFAIK, is essentially a dead coin.

a lens translates things to a different view. so they either justified it somehow, or it changed the outcome. not a hair I'd want to be splitting in court.

"users expect an interactive experience with a website" - I think this is a generalization that is getting a lot of web developers into needlessly complex toolchains and frameworks.

When I'm in a browser, 99% of the time I expect the page to have what I'm looking for. I rarely care if its interactive. In fact, the more interactive it is, the less enjoyable the experience is. This holds even firmer when I'm on a desktop.

I'd argue that WeWork's strategy was a disaster itself. FOMO into disasters is one thing, FOMO - AFAIK, was not a WeWork strategy.

cough Meta cough

Were there 23 lessons, or none? Seems like the author couldn't focus on what they "learned," which likely suggests the post is simply a way to increase their profile after what is largely considered a failure.

This article would have been way more valuable if distilled into a poignant lesson or insight about why Clubhouse failed.

This would be a cool plugin for Google Maps for essentially any public Wifi, wouldn't want to limit it to cafes.

I built a version that takes your PDF, prints it, chutes it into a scanner, and uploads it to S3. The realism is unmatched.

You should get a camera and write an OCR scanner that automatically scans the receipts as they are printed, then pushes it into a DB so you can view all your issues via a simple web application, replete with tracking, reminders, and then an e-mail integration that e-mails the opener of the issue when you put a comment on the receipt that's printed and rescanned.

"Travel like Delta" would be subtle enough I think.

Ok - if we are going to narrow the scope of the debate to the nature of the scanning, that is the core of my argument to begin with.

I'm not an expert in how CSAM works, but if it only as a block list against certain images it will be very ineffective.

The way I would expect it to work, is to recognize the content of images. The SOTA on this is pretty impressive. Knowing the content of the images is what Google does in the cloud, and its great. I can search my images for "Green taxi" and it will find it. Water. Sunsets. Anything.

If apple is introducing the ability to recognize photo content on the device (even if right now it is destined for the cloud as a pre-scan), it doesn't really matter that the model is only tuned to find child abuse, as an example.

Tomorrow, the hyper-parameters or the ontology could be expanded to search for anything. Political affiliations, location and timestamps (this doesn't even need modeling!), illegal objects or substances, etc.

The deal is that Apple is saying "we are going to use your device to determine what is in your pictures." The circumstances and scope of those determinations can change, but the expectation that Apple will be doing it is now publicly established.

It's splitting hairs in the end. You're arguing that they only pre-scan it for bad stuff if you decide to upload it, so they don't end up with that material on their servers.

BUT THE CAPABILITY TO SCAN CONTENT OF PHOTOS ON DEVICE EXISTS. The argument is tomorrow they can simply start sending scan meta data or captions of image content up to a server without you opting into cloud storage.

The capability exists on device. It's all baby steps.

Assuming the marketplace is functioning, the demand for these sort of "features" (aka: non-features) would assume there would be a rational supplier to give it.

The next step in that debate is "yeah but the big monopolies are making it impossible for a little guy to get in." Which is true.

We can agree the regulatory capture is bad.

In the meanwhile, Google is not openly saying they will run ML on your images on your phone. With Android, you don't have to sync to the cloud, and you could even replace or add your own camera option. You can side-load without jailbreaking, etc.

Now, not that most consumer friendly option, but the advice for this crowd is still good - if you still have an iPhone and this is the last straw for you, there are plenty of good options that still exist, today. And then - let's fight regulatory capture and big government so a more dynamic marketplace can take root.

Literally just get an Android phone.

Coupling, Cohesion, and Encapsulation. That's the way I learned it. The Dryness or single responsibility principle I think boils down to encapsulation.

SpaceX has already done that, in less time, and took humans to the ISS.

No, read it again.

"Leaders are right a lot. They have strong judgment and good instincts. They seek diverse perspectives and work to disconfirm their beliefs."

Work to disconfirm their beliefs - this is the key. It shouldn't be "Are Right, A Lot" but more "Get's Right, Consistently." In practive, this means working to check your assumptions and actually ensure you're ... right.

Well done.

Is this a joke?

This dude knows nothing about why Trump won if he thinks I went from Obama to Trump because I'm a closet racist.

Maybe it had to do with all the war, bombing, and drone campaigns?

Seems kinda like notebook tech, like jupiter but without the front facing repl tech? Neat.

It's a knockoff, but doesn't include NLU or ASR capabilities so really it's a shitty tablet on a kickstand I could have purchased for roughly the same price with more features.

"In Soviet Russia, car drives YOU!"

Sorry, I really couldn't help myself. The video is rather impressive. The car even handles illegal moves from other drivers pretty well.

Dynamo.

Using JS to do SSR? How the turntables.
