The author addressed the cold start problem here(timestamped) https://youtu.be/a0VKbrgzKso?t=439

Hope it helps :)

  Specifically Clerk wants to address the following problems:

  - Less helpful than my editor

  - Notebook code being hard to reuse

  - Reproduction problems coming from out-of-order execution

  - Problems with archival and putting notebooks in source control

Great job!!!

It's probably not helping that I'm not starting from a greenfield project. Needing to go through and understand other people's code with an out of date Rails and its dependencies have made me spent most of the time on infrastructure. The entire test suite takes 50-60 minutes to complete with a lot of integration tests hitting the database.

Do people allocate a certain amount of time just to upgrade Rails? It seems like there's an expectation that Rails is 1) used to start quickly with scaffolding (great for hackathons) 2) constantly running app and cared for to not diverge from the latest version

At this point, it's one of those love-hate dysfunctional relationship with Rails for me

But I can see it being useful if the idea is translated to NLP -> regex

a GPT3 to regex would be awesome

Having seen my grandparents/parents/relatives escaping communist China and now my generation escaping HK, it has heavily influenced me on how even people who identified as Chinese and hoping for democracy and freedom for their own cousins in China are being played and lied to for multiple decades.

My people in HK are screaming that the West previous engagement policies have proven again and again to be ineffective. It's believed that the only way is to "distrust and verify" and not kowtow to their ways like what the West had been doing for the previous decades.

I do not claim to know everything about how the Chinese system functions and can only observe how my immediate network is being oppressed but still hope that there's a way to engage the CCP if at all possible.

The Chief Executive election has been delayed for 2 decades requiring the CCP to "pre-filter" candidates which the public rejected.

The legislative council election has been controlled by disqualifying candidates as well as the mass arrest of 53 pro-democracy candidates for simply organizing the primaries and engaging in debates. [3]

TLDR; China wasn't as strong in 90s so took a softer stance. Later decided to go back on its words so had to find ways to control the elections or the results.

> No real death in over an year of violent protests by police firing in Hong Kong vs 5 deaths in capitol building siege speaks volumes about the professionalism with which Hong Kong police handled the protests.

This is not true. After witnessing the 2019 movement and the real police behavior captured on live tv/news[4], I have a much better understanding of the Stanford prisoner experiment.

By only giving a high level ideology/direction, the top leaders give themselves room to manuver when things go sideways and can shift blame onto the lower level leaders' execution.

The system also seem to over penalize under-execution rather than over-execution.

Many examples can be found clearly demonstrated in Hong Kong as the integration with mainland China get sped up by the National Security Law. The recent freezing of exiled HK lawmaker Ted Hui's bank accounts along with his parents and family members accounts which was making global headlines and causing attention.[1]

It seems like the move was part of the high level "exterminate HK pro-democracy figures" but after the headlines, Ted Hui's bank accounts were unfrozen for a while which subsequently allowed him to move some of his funds. Shortly afterwards they were re-frozen [2]. Some believed that the execution went too far as to undermine the global trust in HK which would cost more to the regime so it had to retract to mitigate the damage.

This type of farce seems to happen more often as HK transition into a police state masquerading as a rule of law society.

Interestingly, it's only utilizing the neural engine and no GPU. It'd be interesting to see what happens when M1 Tensorflow updates to utilize both GPU + NE

The outsider in this case is the government bailing out industries like when these digital nomads(businesses) failed, they'd go back to their parents (government). When their parents(gov) run out of money, they'd put it on the credit card (print more money by the Fed) and the cycle continues...

It's funny how this sounds exactly like how our economy works LOL

I think we can fight for more Chinese roles in films, politicians, scientists, CEOs, more representation in all fields. However, I don't see how your argument about it being okay to "cancel" because China is just cancelling 1% and America is 99%.

I'd also not prefer to live in a CCP-centric world where Chinese people are not allowed to tell the truth without fear.[1][2]

We should call out Guantanamo Bay as well as the Xinjiang re-education camps, Liu Xiaobo, not allowing Hong Kong elections. It doesn't make either right because of the existence of the other. However, I have no fear of speaking publicly about Guantanamo Bay and then traveling to the US. But I have to make sure I remove all my private chat messages if I ever mentioned about the Xinjiang camps. That's the CCP-centric world that I see.
