Strong parallels between your definition with “isolation” and that offered by freemint in terms of decomposition into elements. The nuance makes sense on its face. Although I don’t trust my own judgement of what impacts the real economy and

Super interesting and over my head but to oversimplif: automation and old financial “tools” (mortgages, index funds) good but (excessively?) “innovative financial instruments” is a bridge too far. Still hard for people not deep in it — me —

Can you provide a decision rule that distinguishes financial services from financial engineering? I do not feel as confident as you seem that the group of things called “crypto” will not be useful for financial services.

I cited three examples of financial engineering. Just to be clear you oppose mortgages, index funds, and ATM machines? I agree all of these or at least mortgages and index funds probably increase inequality especially given uneven access. A

Why would programmable money be useful for anything beyond financial engineering. It’s literally engineering + finance. Why is financial engineering inherently universally without qualification bad? I have a mortgage, an index fund, and an

As clarification, you are objecting to the phrase “process voice to [serve] ads” in the title which was provided by the submitter not the paper authors?

What part of the paper gives you the impression they imply voice assistants are listening to everything? I don’t get that. The discussion in the paper is nuanced on that point and does not make that claim as far as I read it. Section 2.2 (p

A lot of wisdom here. Allow me to just restate and expand on some of your thoughts. 1. If it goes from experimental to ship, you aren’t going to go back and make it shipshape. 2. Sanding time is meditation on the product. As I rework, I’m r

There are dozens of examples in the wild of python code getting reviewed, corrected, and enhanced. I’m not a spreadsheet expert. Does that even happen for spreadsheets?

No one made the claim that open source universally don’t fall victim to dishonesty. We were discussing the rate.

Does the current evidence noted by fallat — the massive amount of extremely high impact open source projects that don't have malware embedded in them — suggest the error rate is much much lower that 1%?

Good product. Very easy to get going. It would be nice to have a scale to zero ability.

If I felt said for a period of months without specific cause, yes, I would see a psychiatrist or psychologist. What did the doctors who you did see say when you told them about your symptoms? It strikes me as odd that they did not recommend

It depends on your deployment setup? Or the frequency of dataset changes? I check-in a one-line change and CI/CD kicks off a docker build and push. A multi gigabyte binary is pushed to AWS ECR every time. I hardly notice. One benefit i
