    Some more examples: Saving Private Ryan, All Quiet on the Western Front, The Deer Hunter. Personally, I would also include Schindler's List.

    I can't speak to most of what they do, but they seem to be at the forefront of quantum computing.

    Roselle St (where Fabric8 Labs has their office) is the most innovative street in San Diego. I don't know what it is about that particular street, but a ton of great companies have…

    Yes, labor is the killer cost of these installations, IME. Labor can easily be 50% or more of the total cost.

    This uncertainty should be accounted for in the confidence intervals of their stats.

    Bokeh has support for WebGL. We had to switch away from Vega/Altair when a project hit around 50,000 data points in a plot, but under ~5,000 data points Vega/Altair was still good.…

    It's actually even worse in SDG&E territory. A kWh costs around 32 cents, but "transmission" and "distribution" are again twice that. The end result is about $1.00 / kWh.

    Well, I look forward to benefiting from this nice work when the next Debian Stable release comes around.

    Makes sense, but would this be so egregious that they had to fire him on the spot?

    Unless you're just a dyed-in-the-wool Elon Musk fan, in which case it's 5D chess.

    This is such a wasted opportunity, not just for the US, but across the Middle East. I guess Jordan is availing themselves to some degree, though, but it's also out of necessity, du…

    Ah, you would be right, it appears I have a J1772 at home. I did not know that the CCS is a superset of the J1772 connector.

    I don't get the hate for the CCS connector? I use it multiple times a week, it works fine. Now and then I come across a charger that refuses to start, OK, the connector is worn. I …

    It so happens I recently took a Pixel 6 Pro and a Canon 80D on a trip abroad. I used a rebuild of the stock camera app that does away with the automatic over-sharpening that the st…

    Question on the ML side of this post: How are these "parameterizations" used? Is this really just feature engineering with a new name? Are they including this information when trai…

    With Germany, in particular, I think there was also a lot of pressure from Green parties. In any case, I would agree it looks like a mistake in hindsight.

    $10 MM of compute doesn't seem all that out-of-reach for most "mid-size" companies, especially if the result is economical.

    50% of us are below the median. Depending on the distribution, there could be many of us or few of us below the mean. Now, does the employer use the median or the mean to evaluate …
