That is what I was thinking. It does feel like a Theranos.

If a company has a product, and it isn't working because of a memory leak. Give them time. That is solvable. No need (in my opinion) to have to disclose much.

If a company has a product that depends on "Secret Sauce", and the "Secret Sauce" isn't working because there is a fundamental problem, not being 100% honest with investors is criminal.

There is a big gap between: "We have the "Secret Sauce", and it works!" and "We think we can invent a "Secret Sauce" that no one else on earth has figured out!"

Legal Tech Unicorn EvenUp Relied Heavily on Fraud.

That's better!

Surprised the number isn't higher. Just ask the handful of strong developers in any team - Who causes the team more work just by being here? I doubt it is only 9%. (I'm talking about on average. At Goldman it should less. At "APP company for dentists" or some place like JLL, higher.)

Get over it. Procedures and data needs to be published. That's kinda what real scientists do. Everyone in the field understands what it means to have a sample size of 1.

And yes. This chick deserves the bad ass of the year award. How do you get more awesome than that?

New headlights are often too bright. Plus, some car direct extreme amounts of light at the ground. If the car hits a bump, you get a flash worse than brights.

Furthermore, adaptive headlights should dim when they spot a pedestrian. At night, if you are walking and someone shines a super bright light in your face, you can't see anything at all. Same with cyclists. It isn't safe if you can't see the ground 5 feet in front of you due to some a**hole's high-beams.

If the NSA hacks China, is the NSA at fault or is it China's fault for failing to keep them out? China has laws that make this a criminal act, and the US government has no qualms breaking those laws.

We hack China. China hacks us. This is the norm.

Our job is to keep them out. If we are too stupid to keep them out, we get what we deserve.

If we still had astrodomes ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ), we wouldn't have to worry so much about flying blind!
C'mon Boeing! What were you thinking when you go rid of these?

(before you rip me. I'm joking.)

Umm. It isn't on this list of products:
https://www.vmware.com/product...

I have a log in for VMware.com. It doesn't work.

I when try to upgrade ("Check for upgrades" was free within dot releases ) from 17.5.2 to 17.6 and it sends me to:
https://store.cloudvista.com/
It wants me to subscribe to something called "VMware Desktop Hypervisor Pro".

This is a hot mess. I think it's time to move to something else. Plus, in VMware 17.5.2 copying and pasting to/from Windows 10 and Ubuntu only works for the first 5-10 minutes after a reboot. They never did fix it.

The draft (the deepest part of the boat) was 9.83m or 32.25 feet. That is DEEP. I don't have a diagram of the boat, but odds are there is a very very heavy lead weight at the bottom of the keel (the part that reaches WAY down deep to act as a massive counter weight and help the boat sail upwind).

The boat should have been very stable. Even in extreme conditions. However, if they hit something and the keel fell off, she would easily flip right over. Loosing a mast shouldn't sink her. It would make being on deck potentially very dangerous.

The other obvious option is somehow she flooded. Ripped a hole in the hull? She weighed 473 gross tons. That is heavy. Fill her with water and she'll sink like a rock. Boats are designed to survive hull punctures - especially in the bow or front of the boat. The crew had all the bulkheads open?

RIP.

I can't use a Dell keyboard or anything else. The layout is burned into my brain.

One issue. Since the 2000's every ThinkPad I've had has developed issues with the USB ports. I end up being forced to upgrade when I'm down to one working port. My current T14 just rolled past three years old (Note: never dropped). Like clockwork, the main USB C combined "charger port" died at 2.5 years old. If you hold it just so, it works for a second. I've moved on the second USB C port that can also charge the machine. I'll order a new ThinkPad in a 2-3 months.

Lenovo needs to connect the tiny USB C female adapter to the mother board with a much beefier fastener. The little clips they use give way after 4-6 cycles a day * (2 or 3) years. They are difficult to solder back on.

I miss coaxial power connectors on laptops. They don't fail.

The world might not end, but the world might be a better place if children gain the ability to express their thoughts in a sincerely written letter (without AI and without a grammar checker).

This absolutely test's a student's ability to code in the real world! The real world is made up of product managers who can't think clearly or properly explain themselves. btw. Don't ever ask "What is the big picture? What are you ACTUALLY trying to do."
The question isn't hard. It does take a careful read to understand how they want these functions to work. The problem doesn't link back to any obvious real world application. It's a puzzle.

No really! This time is different.

If the next guy can't follow what you wrote and reproduce your result, there isn't much point to publishing. Authors must include everything someone working in the field (other experts) needs to know to get the same result. Same code (you must share), same data set to train on (you must share), and same series of steps = same result. The code isn't thinking. It isn't intelligent. It is executing an algorithm. (Yes. Certain mathematical equations can lead to chaos. If this comes into play, this can be explained in detail and quantified in the paper.)

"data scientists may have large knowledge gaps in computer science, software engineering, theory of computation, and even statistics in the context of machine learning, despite those topics being fundamental to any ML project."
Dude. If you don't understand these things, Don't publish. You're not qualified. Please STFU.

What are these people doing? Calling an API someone else wrote and trying to fake a paper out of it? This isn't worthy of publishing. If you don't understand the code the API executes, please STFU. If you can't explain the How and the Why, there is no meat in your paper.
