5 ways to use personas in your projects
That I would call: driving autonomously with a human driver ready to take over if something unexpected were to happen. I believe that to get to superhuman performance (which is probably what will be needed to make it legal) you will need 360 degree ranging (i.e. LIDAR). Also, it is inevitable that these sensors will become so cheap that it's a no-brainer to include them.
I've never heard of this language, is it specially known for being particularly close to Latin or something? Why would you expect it to be any more mutually intelligible with Latin than any other modern Latin dialect is? (I mean French, Spanish, etc.)

The issue is not if Armin (or myself) likes Rust; the issue here is that you're asserting that Armin chose Rust because he lacks common sense.

Given that there's an entire article about the technical merits (and success) of this approach, and Armin is someone who is known for building excellent, widely used software, well...
Hmm fair enough, harder than I thought (I don't know Rust, the error just sounded sensible). It reads like the function you're passing into filter is supposed to be "lifetime-generic" taking a parameter whose lifetime comes from the for, but the function returned by apply has a fixed lifetime. But I can't see where it's getting the lifetime for that from, or what to do about it. I guess at that point I'd try adding an explicit lifetime to the return type of apply (or maybe an IDE could show it without having to write it)?

The radar was only activated after the front shield was ejected, so there was no altitude data prior to that event. It could be that accelerometers on board sensed the dynamic pressure, so that parachute deployment was not purely open-loop. I'll try to dig through publications to find out what the EDL (Entry-Descent-Landing) strategy was.

This. You could buy an automatic Seiko 5 for the price of a Swatch and go decades without servicing. At least 10 years should be possible without any problems for every model.
I think the problem the parent was getting at is that parts new enough that regulations have not been written are automatically non-viable due to bureaucracy substituting outsourced regulation documents for in-house technical expertise. With the end result of regulators being incapable of making technical decisions that fall outside the already written regulated scenarios.

I would hope that this is less of an issue in nuclear regulation, due to them hopefully having engineering resources on staff. But I do know it's a common problem with less technically focused branches of government.

While I agree for roads with no other cars around, I think there are shortcuts that can be taken on roads where there are indeed other cars.

Me too. 6.05 Euro for 2 hours of voice calls (which I never use fully), 120 SMS (same as before), 2 GB data (anything the tower has up to LTE). I typically use 300 MB of data and some 3 GB of WiFi. Most people won't find those 2 hours of voice calls enough, but voice calls in apps are starting to erode the "real" calls.

Why waste to buy Apples iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus
I really, really wish they would release this for 32-bit Windows 10. Let me explain...

I bought a laptop with W10, mainly to use WSfL on it. Only after updating to the insider preview and then scratching my head for a bit, did I learn that WSfL is only available for 64-bit Windows. The laptop, however (Bay Trail-based), has a 32-bit UEFI, with which 64-bit Windows refuses to install.

I'm dual-booting (amd64) Arch for now; the first distro whose installer played nicely with the funky UEFI setup _and_ F2FS. But I'm really impressed with the W10 on this laptop. If only it could provide a native UNIX experience...

I remember a while back seeing a POC where someone mounted high(ish) powered IR LEDs onto glasses, overexposing CCTV cameras/obscuring your face.

Not sure if would work for regular cameras though (which may well be partly shielded from IR), I think CCTV cameras are often sensitive to IR so that they can work at night (by shining an IR light to illuminate an area).

What i love about spacy is their dependency parsing visualization tool[0].
Its so much better than what Stanford offers.

Other than that, I find Spacy's philosophy of "one (best) way of doing
everything" a bit stifling. I don't think there is a "best" parser or
"best" named entity recognizer. A certain parser may perform very well in a
domain (for example, Tweeboparser [1] performs well with tweets) and
perform very badly in another. This is true for almost everything in NLP,
and NLTK embraces this diversity quite well. This is why NLTK is my go to
tool when I want to do something cutting edge in NLP.

I do not speak Sardo, as I speak another Sardinian language, but I guess I know enough to comment. Sardo spelling is probably closer to Latin than most other romance languages and some sentences are surprisingly close to their Latin equivalent.

I would say that it still lack many Latin features (for example cases, neutral gender), and sentence construction is generally different enough that native speaker wouldn't have a significant advantage to other romance language speakers.

As per the article, Abraini has been filmed so that the technique can be preserved, at least partially, although it seems hard to replicate.
This was my initial thought too. I expect they'll push very hard for Facebook etc. integration to try and get these people's followers to move platform. From what I can gather users can still lurk, you just have to pay to be a poster; a few gratis accounts for popular social media personalities would be able to get lots of people on board.
How, specifically?
Reminds me of the situation in Germany, where private publishers and TV networks managed to successfully shoot down some of the better ideas of how to use public television. Result is that public television networks are forbidden to produce in-depth articles accompanying their reports and may only expose free internet access to their shows within tight limits.
The compromises reached seem more and more like "you may produce content using public money as long as you make sure the content stays sufficiently sucky".
I think part of the problem is that just about all Swiss watch brands have taken the realisation that what they offer is a Veblen good to extremes; high price has become a selling point to the extent that the mass market can no longer buy their offerings.

That's kind of bad, as that's where the money is at.

I am a mechanical watch nut - I own a few dozen, mostly bought second hand, I do my own basic maintenance etc - I have to date bought one luxury watch new; an Omega Planet Ocean which close to a decade ago set me back USD 2,700 or so - by all means a lot of money, but doable for a working professional in a reasonably well off economy.

Today, as far as I can tell, a comparable model in the same range retails at $6,000, while cost of living overall has increased only 19% in the same period. Go figure.

I expected changes at the beta stage. I did not expect the major changes between RC1 and RC2. Try writing a book against a moving target! :)

I think all the changes now are due to that late switch of direction. RC2 went straight to 1.0 but it was a major change and should probably have had some more beta/RC releases.

There's been a lot of variance on the benchmark game lately since things are so close; a couple of months ago, Rust was #2 overall, beating out C++ and just a tad slower than C. The areas where Rust lost the most were because explicit SIMD isn't stable yet. We also upgrade LLVM regularly, and that can cause some fluctuations from time to time.

(Rust is currently beating C on one benchmark, within a few tenths of a second on a few more, and then way slower on the SIMD-reliant ones)

Worse than the modern web, though? Unix is at least designed for what it's used for (mostly), and while X is an absolute mess, it was also designed to do what it does.
Many public services in Europe work great. But I'm talking about the US.

Enabling SIMD on regex-dna is going to help a lot there too. :-) (I hope.)
To echo your point, the screen shots from the original article bare this out. The new App Engine interface does express information hierarchy through type, but it does so badly. The side menu uses all three of spacing, text size and colour to indicate hierarchy, to the point where the lower-level items are nearly illegible. Skimming it, I got the feeling the designer was saying "You don't need this", rather than "You won't need this often" or "Y is a specialisation of X" (which was probably the intent).

Reading: “Mining Large Streams of User Data for Personalized Recommendations”
Clickbait title, article is mostly speculation. The US did not make any act of aggression or declare war. Joe Biden (spelled блядь сука in Russian I think ;)) said some dumb shit about sending Putin a "message".

The article leads with subtitle "Vice President Biden announces a forthcoming covert strike against Russian president Putin..."

1) We don't announce covert operations.
2) It's personal now? US vs. Putin himself? lol
3) The author declares "presumably in the form of some kind of cyber-attack" without citing where this comes from at all. You get the idea... I could go on and on.

Please don't post this drivel here, articles with journalistic integrity and facts are preferred.
The only way Chromebooks are even slightly usable for Real Work is over SSH and Mosh. I speak as a chromebook user (my school provides them): they're awful for developers. Almost useless.
The .csproj msbuild file is here to stay? really? Why are we having to fit programming a build system around an archaic xml declarative language? The .csproj is the single worst point of the visual studio experience. Terrible format, editing experience, having to reload, having to copy paste GUIDs, manually lookup .target files ugh the whole thing is horrible.
XML is actually fine if used sensibly, and better than JSON in some respects (date format etc.). I think people have a bad taste because of some excessive uses of XML (hello SOAP!) and namespace / schema issues.

That's one thing I don't understand with .net core. You deploy the whole .net framework along your code which then becomes static. And this is targeted at web applications primarily.

What about security vulnerabilities? Unless the developers redeploy the application we will be left with an unpatched .net stack and unpatched web server?

How is that a good idea? In an ideal world there would be an active dev team busy redeploying and patching every day behind each website. But people who think we live in this world haven't really followed the pretty much constant stream of news about major breaches because of unpatched versions of software being used everywhere.

Or am I missing something?

Worth noting that the Scottish education system is different - people do 5 or 6 highers at 16/17 and those are used for university entrance rather than 3 A-levels at 17/18.

Scottish first degrees are 4 years rather than 3 in England - presumably to allow for this.

When I wrote the comment it wasn't even redirecting -- it was plain not loading at all. It's loading now, albeit with the redirect you mentioned. Guy's got a point in a way and he's free to do as he wishes with his own content of course but still I don't like those kinds of redirects, since I am not planing on reading the whole book anyway, just the particular page you linked. Also, if he wanted me to pay for the book, he should provide me with an ePub copy of the book. If I don't get a copy then it is absolutely certain I'm not paying for it. I don't read books on my monitor, I read them on my eReader, and only in DRM-free ePub. Author of the page is never going to see this comment but I felt like expressing this anyway.
