Strange to see a lock-free ring buffer without seeing mention of LMAX/Martin Thompson's Java Disruptor (https://github.com/LMAX-Exchange/disruptor)

Weird to see this here! I've used CoralBlocks in the low-latency trading domain previously. Highly recommend. The API is kind, they're very responsive, and the latency is exceptional (and comes with all the basics like thread pinning built-in for convenience)

The Dacia Sandero unfortunately gets a 2 star Euro NCAP rating (which is typical for Dacia cars). Not something I personally would feel safe putting my family into!

A year or so ago, my son needed a tool for making really simple minecraft plans. All the drawing tools out there he could find were overly complex or weren't 'quite right' for him, so I took the opportunity to learn some web and javascript stuff and made this: https://draw.pixelweasel.com/

One outstanding 'todo' was textures!

Then I wanted to make ASCII art automatically from any picture, so I played around and made this: http://ascii.pixelweasel.com/ (again, playing with javascript)

Super cool. Love the interface, was not expecting to be thrown back a few decades!

On mobile, I tried recording to /c/PepTalk, but after recording my voice, none of the buttons ('save', 'play' or 'stop') did anything. So I wasn't sure if it had actually uploaded.

Then when I went back to the /c/PepTalk channel to check I had a popup saying something like 'failed to fetch waves' (sorry, I don't recall the exact error message!).

I'll keep an eye on this ongoing though, as I adore the concept.

Same boat here. Do we need a hiring market specifically for generalists?

That's a big part of it. But their scale and presence also means they get to do things that have been invaluable for us, like being able to book meeting rooms in and have access to other WeWork premises with low effort.

Spreadsheets are phenomenally flexible, but they obviously don't scale well or behave nicely with source control.

I work at Anaplan, and the most common way that our biggest customers discover us is when they've been bitten by spreadsheets as they've scaled, and now they have users emailing spreadsheets around and someone with a full time job collating them.

We've modelled the product around the flexibility, but rigor and scale on top of it.

Wonderful, thank you!

Wonderful answer, very intuitive, thank you so much!

Much appreciated!

Very kind, thank you for the explanation!

I don't speak fluent maths, but i'm extremely interested. Is anyone in a position to explain what the initial equation for U(x) means? I'll be in your debt forever!

It's interesting that the article doesn't delve into non-Asian martial arts like Krav Maga, which, in my limited experience, offers an extremely reductionist 'does it work' mentality.

Interesting also that the gold standard of the article is 'in the ring'. I would have thought messy 'real world' combat is gold standard (but obviously less reproducible, from the science perspective). Additionally, multiple opponents.

This is a similar tale told by friends from Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Not OP, but for reader convenience, the paper linked to by the github repo is entitled "Learning to Diagnose with LSTM Recurrent Neural Networks"

And the abstract is: "Clinical medical data, especially in the intensive care unit (ICU), consist of multivariate time series of observations. For each patient visit (or episode), sensor data and lab test results are recorded in the patient's Electronic Health Record (EHR). While potentially containing a wealth of insights, the data is difficult to mine effectively, owing to varying length, irregular sampling and missing data. Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), particularly those using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) hidden units, are powerful and increasingly popular models for learning from sequence data. They effectively model varying length sequences and capture long range dependencies. We present the first study to empirically evaluate the ability of LSTMs to recognize patterns in multivariate time series of clinical measurements. Specifically, we consider multilabel classification of diagnoses, training a model to classify 128 diagnoses given 13 frequently but irregularly sampled clinical measurements. First, we establish the effectiveness of a simple LSTM network for modeling clinical data. Then we demonstrate a straightforward and effective training strategy in which we replicate targets at each sequence step. Trained only on raw time series, our models outperform several strong baselines, including a multilayer perceptron trained on hand-engineered features."

Same! Top notch content, a real treat. A higher frequency of issues would be great, but then again I'm just greedy!

Typo on the 'home education' page: "accross"

I think you REALLY don't want typos on a site about education! :D

I thought Raft was always-single-leader? Followers can happily become leaders through elections?

Your username... inspired by the epic Reddit story adventure, or are you the author?

It could hire human agents to inspect and confirm. I guess you could treat the DAO as an exceptional manager who has no domain knowledge at all, but knows to delegate to people with domain knowledge.

Out of curiosity, how did you find your symptoms affected your relationship with your family? If it's too personal, ignore this!

Higher resolution images on that page would be nice. So we can actually see who the unicorns are!

Are there any ongoing tournaments for this or similar? I'd love to get involved, but I feel like I wouldn't get the most benefit from this by starting from scratch so late in the game.

I read that as 'the patient expiring', which I believe would also have an effect on drug use.

Interesting... Didn't make it to Lithuania?

There seems to be a bug at the end of the first page ('an introduction'), where the link to the subsequent page loops back to the introduction page!

As an Englishman, I'm horribly offended by this.

There's no mention of tea whatsoever! seethe

J2ME has been around forever, but I don't think it's targetted towards app dev/GUI shenanigans. (I could be wrong, it's been > 10 years since I last looked)

Sob, no non-US support! I was just getting excited, but then I realised that there was no combobox for choosing 'United Kingdom' anywhere.
