However care should be taken in expanding this to other products: in the discussion on /r/australia a commenter noted that the active ingredient(s) may not be the only issue at hand and provided the example of panadol's "osteo" whose active ingredient is standard paracetamol but which is packaged as a partially sustained release tablet (2/3 of the paracetamol is delivered over something like 8 hours)
What if careful drivers are less likely to be injured in a crash if self driving cars are not introduced, despite there being less overall road injuries? Would not these drivers' outcry be justified then?
> This would encourage people to only use truly driverless AI in the safest possible conditions, ie not on crowded streets or when its raining.

You just cancelled any driverless cars in NL or the UK.

Driverless cars are only useful if they have a 'backup' driving mode by a person in the most extreme of circumstances. Under all normal conditions the car should drive itself. Otherwise it is not a 'driverless car' but merely a car with a software augmentation for the driver and they should be lumped in with the regular cars.

Self driving cars should be able to move from one place to another without a licensed driver present or required in all circumstances normally encountered.
It might have changed in the last 5 years, but I found #5 a point of contention.

I found it incredibly hard to find a new job opening when I wanted one, let alone get hired for them. Flew to London and have had jobs thrown at me nearly every day since. I suspect hiring has the same issues.

Likewise, my story about how I got into and out of security: it really just takes basic programming knowledge, understanding reverse engineering concept, and constantly testing shit.

When I got kicked out of college for my hack (rm https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5090007) all I did was spam URLs with different IDs and test if they returned 200 or 404.. and bam press coverage + job offers. Sometimes the simplest of stuff can lead to nirvana.

I'm no longer in security since it was getting very addicted (I would start testing every website I'd visit for vulbs)..and I had to change and decided to jump into the startup world.
Congratulations to the author for both of his last 2 posts making it to the HN front page!

This explains the need to drill home the train-test idea from the last post. I hadn't thought about this before but multiple submissions do amount to multiple peeks at your held-out test set, which is a huge ML no-no.

I don't know much about LSVRC, but doesn't the way Kaggle work prevent this? AFAIR you get a "public" test-score which is used for the leaderboards, but once the deadline for submissions is up, each submission is evaluated on a held-out test set giving you a "private" score. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure how that works, I guess the accuracy they show you as your public score is only on part of the submitted rows? Regardless of how that's done, could the LSVRC organisers not do something similar?

> Enjoy your future of pay walls!

I love how people say "I will!"

For starters, most won't. These are people who tend to be ideological and naive kids who probably still have their parents paying their bills. Or they don't really fully understand what the implications are. Also, subscription models have proven to be poor solutions and don't work very well at best, and at worst, completely fail taking the website with it.

Another thing, what about poor people? We talk about how people "are happy to pay for content they like!" Only, there are going to be a massive amount of people who simply can't afford to use the internet that way. If the entire internet turned into "pay as you go", the poor & working class are screwed. They're the ones who are going to be the hardest hit. Not just poor people in the U.S but what about all that traffic from other countries? And there is a lot of it... That's a lot of people who used to be able to keep up with current events, study science, math, history (educate themselves), chat on forums, make new friends, play games who now can't, because they can't afford it. To me, that's a shame. A travesty even if you take into account the educational aspect.

I feel like the people who push for the paywall & a la carte type solutions don't really consider the full implications of their suggestions. I mean, I thought about it myself the last time it came up on hackernews for weeks, no, months and I still have no clue how the internet would evolve as a result. And what little I did conclude wasn't good. Yet these people seem to be so certain...

The HN title is incorrect because it elides the "product" part of the original. Australia didn't pull nurofen itself, they pulled nurofen-branded products which made unsustained claims ("Back Pain", "Period Pain", "Migraine Pain" and "Tension Headache" which were bog-standard nurofen formulation with different branding and significant markup)
I should have read the comments, I just asked the same thing. I always wondered how that worked, though - you don't submit an algorithm, do you? Just a spreadsheet with your predictions, in which case how can they evaluate your algorithm on another test set?
Too bad it doesn't have swagger integration (yet).

Love the easy, clean API - it's great for a reasonably sized project.
I disagree with the way you compare memories and bonding moments with your family/friends to a game you are usually meant to spend alone and are unable to remember what you did in it last week.
No, obviously not in the middle of driving.

I meant that as in after the car has been sideswiped by another vehicle or if the batteries have been drained to the point that the on-board electronics need work, in a garage and so on. In times when the cars self-driving capabilities can not be relied on.

Not in normal traffic and certainly not as a 'ok, I give up, you try something' mode.

Hence the 'Under all normal conditions the car should drive itself' bit above. That includes trying not to kill the pedestrians.

I think you're seeing what you want to see. I have been thinking about this problem - and have had these arguments about on the internet - for over 20 years. Just because you don't like what someone says doesn't mean they haven't thought about it.

> facebook, google, poof gone

You say that like it's a bad thing. The one regret I have in life is giving some of the top people at Facebook their first programming lessons many years ago. The damage that company has cause - and is still causing - is incredible.

> youtube

Funny you mention that. There is quite a bit of content on youtube I would miss.

For example, I've watched a lot of Minecraft-based shows over the last five years. While that worked ok being funded by ads for a while, youtube basically decided a couple years ago that they don't care about the people that use their service to publish their content[1].

Today, most of the people that previously relied on youtube for income are now branching out to other funding models. I've bought tshirts from some (which easily gives them more money than they would have gottene from me watching their ads). Others have moved to the subscription models available at twitch.tv, while others have been very successful asking their audience for funds (patron).

> I challenge you

I challenge you to coinsider that this isn't some poorly-though-though whim, and to expand your thinking about the internet and publishing. Ads are only one way of funding content creation. I'd even bet we haven't even thought of the best methods yet.

There is a tendency in Australia for research organizations to consider patent licensing revenue as the only way of commercializing that research.

Clearly that is shortsighted, but there is such momentum (in the form of established procedures etc) that it can be hard to argue against.

But hey - were are close to the worst in the OECD at commercializing research, so something has to change.

Sorry, I edited the title.
> are you suggesting that all websites now put up a landing page which says "You must view the following ad to enter this website. Click yes to continue, click No to go back to google"?

In order for users to be /obligated/ to not block the ads, yeah, basically, but only for the first time the person visits the site, because of cookies and such. Having a single page "do you agree to not block ads displayed on this website?" (but with more precise terms) when going to a website for the first time really isn't that much of an inconvenience I don't think. And if someone wanted to automatically agree to all such agreements of some standard format, I figure something could be worked out there. And, it's not like all sites with ads would have to have a page like this. Only if they wanted users to be /obligated/ to not block ads. A fair number of people (such as myself) will choose not to block ads as their own choice on websites that do not make such an agreement.

> The moment you went to the website. It's like going to someone's house and knocking on the door.

Knocking on someone's door does not constitute an offer to buy a product from them? Not sure what sort of agreement would be made by finding an address of a piece of paper on the ground, and then knocking on the door there. I don't see any reason to expect that a person doing this would be obligated to then go next door to receive a pamphlet if the person who opened the door told them to.

Not really - there are benefits to being based in the US. If everyone just chased the lowest taxed jurisdictions then every corporation would be based in a tax haven.

Corporations aren't repatriating the money they hold offshore. I can see why the US wants a piece of that pie, but they currently aren't getting any pie and are losing piemakers. Taking a smaller cut of something whilst also having that something flow back into the US is surely a good thing.

Content optimized to generate revenue through direct payments will be of higher quality than content optimized to generate ad revenue. For example a paid search engine would display the most accurate results instead of those results that are quasi accurate but most likely to generate ad revenue.

Also.on such an internet it would be easier to get users to pay for content because there would be infrastructure in.place and it would be the norm.
No, actually what you're saying is a pile of crap. The only irresponsible ones in this situation are the members of Congress. The United States is not immune to economic forces, yet for years despite all the evidence to the contrary they've been in utter denial about this. All they have to do is pass a simple bill to make the US tax code work the same way as it does in every other god damn country in the world, then no more jobs get moved overseas.

That's not how things actually work. If it was, every nation but one would lose all of their corporations to that one country with the lowest rate.

The decline in the benefit of a lower corporate tax rate accelerates as you go lower. For example, going from 35% to 25% might reduce your corporate inversions by 75%. Going from 35% to 10% might reduce your inversions by 85%.

The challenge is to find the level where you gain the most as a nation overall. If you have something to offer other than just the low tax rate, it will never make sense to chase toward zero. The closer you get to that ideal level, the more other factors come into play to your nation's benefit in regards to keeping companies. The US has vast benefits for a company like Pfizer that would compensate for N% additional tax rate.

Correct. That's why 0% is preferable to 8%, and Schumer-Portman should be thought of as a medium term stop-gap measure. 0% is the only stable rate. Eventually that will happen, but for the time being 8% will work as other revenue adjustments are made.

The thing is, that's not really true. Developers made it possible for advertisers to insert their adverts into web resources. Advertisers decided to use that power to track users through cookies, tracking pixels, localStorage and various Javascript tricks. Yes, there were no doubt a few developers working for the ad companies, but they are far outweighed by the mass of developers that work for content sites.

Really? I guess you haven't seen the people that have moved from youtube to twitch.tv (because of the subscriptions) and patreon.

> what about poor people?

Not only is this a cheap emotional gambit, it pre-supposes that they are currently getting content for free. As we have repeatedly discussed on HN, if it's free, you are the product[1]. Moving to explicit payments - or other forms of funding - is a huge improvement over taking advantage of the ignorance most people have about what they are paying for "free" content.

"Any one may so arrange his affairs that his taxes shall be as low as possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which will best pay the Treasury; there is not even a patriotic duty to increase one's taxes."

"Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one's affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant."

Yeah you're wrong. The US Government has a $146 billion R&D budget. That kind of spending has directly contributed to the US success in tech.
