This is a totally worthless question to ask about a law or rule.

The general form would be "why was the law created?"

And of course, there's never a law with the (disclosed) purpose of killing all kittens, giving money to friends or destroying an enemy. On the contrary, every law is always spun on some kind of "will you think of the children".

The only good question you can ask about a law:

"What are its consequences?"

Interestingly, your first question was more in this sense.
Linear operators are useful in many situations because

(1) They are "nice" operators which carry properties most functions can only dream of having: f(v + w) = f(v) + f(w), and f(av) = af(v). From these properties you can develop a very rich theory (along with the properties of vectors). These are the sorts of properties that we want all of our functions to have when we are young and first learning algebra - how many prealgebra students wish they could simplify (a + b)^2 to a^2 + b^2?

(2) A linear approximation is the first useful approximation for most behaviours, and at a small enough scale almost anything looks linear. Once you've made this approximation you get to exploit the properties of (1)

Yep, that's exactly the problem. We even have a few posters in this discussion talking about how they hate these new requirements because it means they can't run their routers illegally anymore. A lot of the fuss seems to be that the draft documentation of things that hardware vendors should consider and put in their certification request is, "what happens if an end user installs a third-party firmware like dd-wrt." They're seeming to take that as prohibiting all third-party firmwares, instead of prohibiting third-party firmwares on devices that require binary blobs. A router maker who has a baseband that can't be modified wouldn't be affected by this at all.

I've been using the X 6x13 font for about 12-13 years. Though these days I've had to switch to a TrueType one that looks the same - presumably reproducing the pixels with hand-drawn boxes...

Hack is quite nice in terms of the aspect ratio, but in common with many modern fonts it doesn't look very good at low point sizes on a ~100dpi monitor. Not exactly unexpected - nobody bothers to hint their fonts any more, and/or provide bitmap versions for low point sizes - I'm sure it takes ages anyway and most people won't care - but still a shame. I have antialiasing switched off on Windows, and Hack looks pretty horrible. But 9pt non-AA Arial Unicode MS shows delightful-looking small fonts are possible...

Looks good on a retina display though. Just need to replace all my monitors with 250+dpi ones and I'll be set!

How is the list monad a "computation builder"? Sounds to me like "programmable semicolons" and other nonsense: Monad is a typeclass that means very different things depending on what type you're using. It's the shape that has meaning: this level of abstraction is just going to be hard to grasp correctly no matter what you call it.

Likewise with "Mappable": in most other languages, `map` is only an operation on lists or list-like things. `ask` in `Reader` is implementable with Functor only: by what tortured metaphor does `Mappable` help you understand that? Also it sounds like Java. Yuck :)

Names are a bikeshed. Monad, Applicative and Functor have the advantage of at least being rigorous, I can't see any other name being better.

As with most things in mathematics, the varying perspectives on an object and the relationship between those perspectives are more important than what an object is per se, to the point where the idea of what an object "is" per se is often meaningless.

Are the real numbers "actually" Dedekind cuts or equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences? If we prove that both constructions result in isomorphic objects, what difference does it make? Once equivalence has been established, we're free to adopt either perspective as the situation warrants.

Matrices represent linear transformations whether we want them to or not. As someone else pointed out, the operation you've defined is the Hadamard product[1], which is totally valid but doesn't correspond to the composition of linear transformations.

There are other "products", too, like Kronecker product[2] and the Frobenius product[3], each with the own properties, motivations, and relationships to other parts of mathematics. These are neither good nor bad nor anything else — they just are.

I think it was a misstep for the article to be titled What Matrices Are, because the real idea is that when we think of matrices as representing linear functions then the formula for "standard" matrix multiplication corresponds to the composition of linear functions. It's not just some crazy scheme we invented to torture Algebra II students in high school, but a different perspective on the composition operation that has its own advantages and disadvantages relative to other perspectives.

The article is full of criticism.
OP here

In the contract, there wasn't any URL address or domain specified. The only wording related to the content destination is "One-time, Non-exclusive rights to use image within the Gerd Ludwig interview piece for Pixel Magazine online blog." I think the problem is as many pointed out - that there was a confusion that the Pixel Magazine blog was hosted on Medium.com. We came up with the Pixel Magazine name very recently, and were also migrating our content to the new @pixelmagazine handle. We used to be @polarrist on medium. This might create more confusion because @polarrist is now all routing to @pixelmagazine now so https://medium.com/@polarrist/where-are-chernobyl-s-children... is pointing to the same article. We added more branding elements (the logo) to make sure this is indeed the Pixel Magazine.

I think the take away from our experience is that, definitely make sure in the contract, specify the URL and domain name.

As we only maintain this one blog, I think the "one time,non exclusive" reflects the spirit of the contract more. We should have just specify that we will only post this in one and only one blog ever hosted on the internet.

We pretty much don't have a place to post this article anymore, until we hear back from NG.

curious. I thought "the grid" was about using a constraint solver + A/B testing to optimize websites for arbitrary metrics - pageviews or sales or whatever. the "AI" marketing makes some sense in that context, at least.
On my Mac, Hack has increased leading (space between lines) which makes it more readable. Quite a bit more IMO. I'm curious why your screen shots show identical leading.
Proportional fonts do not work well with space-based alignment, but are fine with tabs.
Bad behavior is already banned. People behave badly nonetheless.

Reading some of the other comments in the thread; two things become clear to me. People causing their devices to behave badly have no idea what the ramifications are, lacking knowledge in both regulatory issues ("what's DFS? what's TDWR?") and RF-related issues ("jacking up the power can't cause spurious emissions!") [note]. These people should not be modifying their radio equipment, they don't have the understanding required to do so safely.

That said, you can be licensed by the government to prove that you understand these things, and then the government gives you free reign to build your own equipment and basically do whatever you want. If I were modifying my WiFi equipment for Part 97 operation (questionably legal for various reasons I won't go into), I'd know to look for things like: interference with primary users of the frequencies, spurious emissions, permissible RF exposure limits, and so on.

"Unlicensed" doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. People seem to think it does, however, and the FCC has a very tiny enforcement budget, so it seems natural to go after the device manufacturers rather than the end users. The device manufacturers already pay to have their devices certified, a few more hoops don't matter to them (and save the taxpayers money), and a well-locked device will prevent even the most ignorant hobbyist from causing plane crashes, so I understand their logic.

I am probably going to write them a letter opposing the changes, but mostly from the perspective of amateur radio operators rather than "I can do whatever I want in my own home".

[note] Let me share some choice quotes from elsewhere in the thread:

"Sounds like those TDWR systems are in dire need of an upgrade if that's enough to cause fatalities."

"The hardware should know the amplitude of the input signal and what maximum gain can be applied to it before these detrimental effects set in. [...] I'm not going get a multi-gigahertz-capable scope costing tens of thousands of dollars just to tweak my home router."
My solution to the things not lining up nicely was to give up column alignment completely. In fact, I did that long before I started coding in proportional fonts. I think it was giving up column alignment that opened my eyes to the possibility of using proportional fonts at all. If you don't use column alignment, code looks pretty much the same in a proportional or monospaced font.

BTW my favorite coding font right now is Trebuchet MS on a high-DPI display.
The point of rump kernels is not leveraging the whole stack from $OS. It's leveraging the unmodified drivers from $OS without the wholesale import of policies from $OS.

Sure, driver kits are an old idea, but starting from OSKit in the 90's the common fault is that the kits are forks over upstream. Forking is easy, but forking means that maintenance is unbearable unless you happen to be an organization with person-years to spare just to keep up with bugfixes and new features from upstream. Figuring out how to do it without forking (i.e. anykernel architecture which enables rump kernels out-of-the-box) takes more effort, but wins long-term. "proof": DDE is for Linux 2.4/2.6 drivers. NetBSD source tree from a second ago gives you rump kernels.
The Edge browser doesn't display certificate data at all. This has been discussed on the CAB forum mailing list recently.
Honestly, the alternative is to teach people component-wise calculations like those in old school (and some new school) GR with a bunch of indices everywhere. As others have pointed out, a 2x2 matrix or a square matrix in general is a nice representation because operations involving them follow basic rules.

For your qualm where people told you "can't" multiply vectors together, what they should have said is "we won't define a multiplication between vectors like we can between scalars" where "we won't" means "we won't for this course." Something I agree that isn't stressed in Math enough in the early years is that it's creation: mathematicians define what they can in order to prove other things, and as long as one can define something that is consistent with other definitions and is logically coherent, it goes. Just like you can define element-wise multiplication, of course it's valid.

Final nitpick: I'd argue an isomorphism between objects A and B is enough to say that A is B, up to some non-isomorphic details, like how they are typeset in an article.
Well the indented parts will always line up correctly (since all they have before them are spaces or tabs), the only problem is if you use spaces for alignment after you've already typed some text.
I've been using Anonymous Pro[0] for as long as I've known about it. I think I think Anonymous slightly more than Hack. On a different note, while this might sound like a silly gripe, I really don't like the "r"s in Hack. They seem off.

The people behind TheGrid are also the same people behind Grid Stylesheets, which uses an implementation of the cassowary constraint system to facilitate web layout: https://gridstylesheets.org/

Grid Stylesheets are actually a pretty compelling approach and it was well-received here when they first shared it with HN. While the claims about machine learning and AI are arguably eyeroll-worthy, there's definitely some non-trivial engineering powering their service. They aren't peddling vaporware and it's not a scam.

I don't think OP's knee-jerk reaction here is fair—and it certainly doesn't seem to be based on an evaluation of the actual technology in question.

A decent indication that it's not as simple as "well just call it x instead" is that each time I see a comment like this there is often a new "easy" word for monad. Yours is new to me, so I'll add it to the list:

- FlatMappable

- AndThenable

- Joinable

- Chainable (or, Daisychain)

- Computation Builder

That's a strange feeling, huh? It's similar to how we always want more (money, vacation, etc.) in life, but when we get there we just want more again. I've had the thought about Consolas many times; "Why do I keep looking for a new one when I like Consolas?". I think the answer is that we always seek novelty, because that drives evolution.

> Even a 10% slower speed differential from a baseline human is a big, big disadvantage.

This would make sense if all thinking is equal and only the rate of thinking varies. In practice, the quality of thought processes seems much more important than the the rate at which such processes are carried out.

For example, attempting to assess "cognitive speed" can be very dangerous in interviews. It seems like such a promising metric. A candidate who answers questions 10% faster than average will generally be much more impressive than a candidate who answers questions 10% slower than average, and it's tempting to think person A will be 22% more productive. Of course, over time, it may turn out that he occasionally provides more bad solutions to problems, or can only solve superficial problems, or solves the wrong problems. And you realize the person who consistently solves problems correctly (albeit at a slower pace) is a better choice than the person who introduces new problems as quickly as he solves existing problems.

It could always be argued that person B is actually thinking faster, but thinking through the problem much more carefully, causing him to verbalize his answer later. Or perhaps both people are thinking at the same speed, but person B has simply thought more. Maybe person B is actually thinking slower but more effectively. From an outsider's perspective, we can't know what's happening under the hood, which makes "cognitive speed" a weak metric for judging effectiveness in practice.

What? I didn't conflate the two, and I don't know what that is telling of exactly. The freedom to report (i.e. press freedom) on the economy and the economy itself are 2 separate things, and the Chinese government was censoring the press.
For the first obvious difference, watch the 'i' in 'login'.
If you look more closely you'll see that many of the glyphs are changed, most subtly. The lowercase "i" is the most significant change I saw.
I think the OP is saying he can't evaluate the actual technology in question because there is nothing to see. You are asked to take the word of thegrid folks that they have something and that they have 100 people testing it.
