should somebody tell them about ML models?

Estimated 6 Billion USD of a hole on the FTX side.


Does this number match the debt on Alameda's balance sheet?


I love it! Can you add SSL though? Does it support gzip compression? What about Brotli? I like that it's small and fast so in addition to serving static files can it act as a reverse proxy? What about configuration? I'd like to be able to server multiple folders instead of just one?

Where can I submit a feature request ticket?



This seems to be intended for local host usage exclusively. Is anyone using this for public or even internal http hosting?


I think is not precisely an active project, but it's open on GitHub[1], I guess we can try to open issues there.

This would basically preclude anybody from interviewing at the FANGs. I believe they have all adopted the Google style leetcode college level trivia questions, completely divorced from the realities of the job. Their processes are so tightly controlled and the duties of the job so far removed from the interview process that I can't imagine what would happen even if you successfully navigated to a job offer.

"Oh congratulations, you made it! You won't see any of the people you interviewed with ever again. You'll be placed on 1 of 3 teams that do things we've never spoken to you about. I'm sure you are going to love it here!"


A serious and urgent question, when did "data" a collective noun warrant a plural verb ex. "the data are ambiguous"

"Data" was not treated this way in the past and now it is everywhere. Where did it come from and why did it change?


Data has always been plural! Datum is the singular. But actually treating it as plural is mostly a question of where the person speaking/writing is based. Americans treat it as singular, Brits plural. See also, corporations


Note that in the English language, there is a rule in regard to forming compound nouns, which is that only the head of the compound can carry the plural marker.

So for instance, whereas the compound noun phrase "law school entrance exams" is perfectly fine, "law schools entrance exam" is not. It has a plural on "schools", where it is not allowed to be, because that is not the head of the noun phrase.

According to this rule, we should not have words like "data processing", unless we treat "data" as plural. If we treat "data" as the plural of "datum", we must make it "datum processing".

Is that how it is in British English, or do they still make it "data processing"?

In any case, one cannot be a proper pedant about "data" and "datum", while continuing to use terms like "data storage".


From a random internet site: " The data are correct.

But most people treat 'data' as a singular noun, especially when talking about computers etc.

For example:-

The data is being transferred from my computer to yours.

And I have to be honest, I've never heard anyone ask for a datum. "

It could be the case that the scientific pluralization is leaking into regular usage because more people are collectively reading / reporting on scientific studies. Alternatively, Google / Grammarly and similar tools might be suggesting it because it's been seen in their training data / examples.

In any case, IMHO 'datum' is a singular point of information, any reference to multiple points of information would make the noun plural.


I for one would love to see Crank.js take off in popularity, shoot up in usage, implement hooks, then be consumed by the next light weight super focuses JS framework.

I think after 20 years of this repeating pattern JS frameworks might finally die off. We can only hope!


YOLO Tesla call options - Pretty obvious. Or Kodak, both great companies.


Ars had a good article on community fiber build outs in the UK

Sad to say but that's probably what communities in the US will have to do as well.


Given its produced by a ".ai" company I would imagine they are using a U-Net derived ML model and not traditional OpenCV methods.

You can read more about that approach here:

Good results though for sure and very handy for quick image edits.


Yup. Multiple u-nets, actually.


Do we know if Venezuelans' use social media? I've got an idea...
