Sometimes at work I get slop emails from some VP or other, and the problem isn't the tone or use use of AI per se, it's that 2 sentences of meaningful content is diluted into 3 paragraphs for no discernible reason.

With our density, New York could have a much richer street foods scene if the permitting and regulations allowed it.
I have put Fukuoka on my travel list.
> Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If airbnb was banned, my apartment would be vacant during that time. This would push tourists into hotels, driving up the cost of a hotel room, and furthering the affordability crisis since developers would see more upside in hotels rather than residential development.
From what I understand, the on-the-ground management work after acquisition is outsourced to specialized executives with whom the firm has a relationship. They can bring expertise in a specific industry, and the deal structure pays them with large performance incentives.
So it's useful to have a library that helps and the input or output be precise, when that is what the task involves.
I thought running something on the edge referred to running it in close network proximity to the user, rather than users having control and running things themselves.
A strong labor market drives up wages. When not matched by GDP growth, those wages increase costs, which cause workers to demand higher wages to keep up with those costs, and so on.
The cycle needs to be broken even if there is short term pain for workers.
* Higher cost of borrowing is putting pressure on growth companies that relied on cheap capital
* Economic downturn makes it harder to do business and lowers stock prices, which makes up a big part of any 400K SWE package
* Tech companies can allow RSU grants to expire rather than implementing formal paycuts. Whereas companies in other sectors might lay off 5% of the workforce before giving everyone a 5% paycut, we may see a different trend in tech.
Nobody is saying that the government can't fund private research (as it surely does in the context of security, defense, etc). But that if research is _published_, it ought to be open access rather than behind a paywall.
I think a lot of fraud prevention tech can reasonably be done in a matter of seconds. FedNow also proposes to be domestic only for the time being, which means the recipient accounts are in US jurisdiction and easier to shut down and prosecute. Finally, there's no reason a wait-period/cooldown can't be implemented in another layer.
In my view, it's not one or the other. Studying and correcting mistakes of the past can also provide a hint for where to find injustice in the present.
But in general, aren't there some cases where we want to moderate our communication based on how it will be received? Honesty is the right default, but not universally correct.
The classic example is that it might be preferable to tell someone that a dress they just bought looks good on them.
I think as children we tend to be too honest, and then overshoot as teens or young adults by worrying too much about social acceptance. And we have to find a middle ground.
I think the "dream" of truly private transactions was always unrealistic. Governments have many tools at their disposal to get what they want.
Even cash is only so private. In the USA cash purchases over $10,000 require a report to the IRS.
To whatever extent I'm highly skilled, I'd prefer that it be reflected in my responsibilities and compensation, rather than leverage to blow off meetings.
We can track the rank of newly sampled pairs in LogN using something like an order statistic tree:

But I guess the problem is that with each new pair, O(n) pairs could change their contribution to the correlation coefficient.
