It goes deeper than Little's Law. Every decent textbook on introductory queuing theory has the result that on a normalized basis, fast server > multi-server > multi-queue. That analysis admits almost arbitrary levels of…
To me it sounds like they hacked the editor/code signing tools to insert malicious code on save/commit by devs. Having iron-clad CI toolchains don't help you with that. Need to focus on how to defend the devs.

The act of measurement on the second particle destroys the entagled state of the pair. That effect can be measured on the first particle's side (which may be far away... on the other side of the galaxy maybe).

It's a strong statement but it definitely leaves the door open. Given that there's so much at stake I can't imagine a different statement. On the other hand, if you read the CISA alert[1], it's clear that (1) many…
Take a look at Google Private Join and Compute[1]. But be aware that the problem you frame is an unsolved research problem with an active global community. The topics you are looking for are applications of secure…

True, but OTOH CA will likely start to change it's forestry management practices as a result of this. The distribution of surface fuel is a joint effect of drought and policy/management.
You're assuming that the reward function is giving you the community you want. In reality the reward function is to maximize engagement, which is a proxy for ad revenue. When there's an asymmetry in engagement dynamics…
Real world incremental complexity is very high. To say nothing about the lack of an ecosystem. I fondly recall interviewing at one of the faang companies years ago, when they ran out of things to ask me, and the guy…
We have theorems that say that's impossible, so I guess the answer is no? Or maybe Betteridge's law?
I think "Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems" is a better starting point for Pearl. Not much easier but more familiar ground if you're coming from today's ML mindset. As an aside, once while reading through…
It's not clear that it spreads via aerosols, in fact it's more likely that it spreads via droplet and contact. Thus the virtue of the mask is that it keeps the individual's fingers away from their faces. From the…
I remember going to the first SciPy conference at Caltech in 2002. IIRC Most of the talk was about needing better package management. What happened since is just amazing.
Mark Newman would like a word with you regarding power laws. So would HN, honestly: [2007] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16414279
It's important to understand that there's a difference between "R&D" as it lives in most people's minds here, and "R&D" as it presents in financial reporting. The former is associated with hiring PhD's and building…
Thanks. I've been meaning for years to learn more about him.
Thanks for that. It made my day.
No offense to all the great people working at Docker over the years-- but after they came to see us right after they raised their series B, it immediately occurred to me that they had hired _all_ of the wrong people. I…
Wake me up when it's dead and we can start working on what comes next.
The realization that I came to was that by speaking up I was usually asking a question that many people were not asking; by providing a strong opinion it would help to catalyze deliberate action. If you stay silent…
Thank you
Also, write a treatise about how they discovered queueing theory... seems to be part of the pattern.
I'm talking specifically about modeling iid/non-iid sequences of data from events, experiments, etc. Haven't read the paper so, I'm not sure if I'm talking past the authors or OP.
