Also other countries have different scams. I ran an import export and frequently pakistan scammers looking for an business visa would try to fake a business with you.

They would waste hours of your time before dropping the act, annoucing they cant pay $ 10k and really just want to illegally work in your country.

Way worse.....one guy did actually show up after conning another guy successfully. Turns out he was legit in business but wanted to inspect wares first before wiring a ton of cash. That was a shock when he showed up on my doorstep. Imagine the nigerian prince dude you told to get lost ringing your doorbell 6 months later!!!!

Regarding Peanuts, you're not alone in finding the strip a bit off-putting. I tried many times to 'get it' like the advice booth, but between the janky art style and not quite finding the strip speak to me, it's not a personal classic. By comparison I got a lot more mileage out of The Far Side.
That is only partially true. They can resimulate what the automation _would_ have done given all the telemetry and video data leading up to the event.

This is why "partial automation" for the initial data collection still produces valid results. You can replay data against updated models and do "what if" testing without actually sending the car back out on the road again.

For me this is becoming eerily true. Software dev for 15 years. I planted a grape vine behind my house 6 years ago. It now produces enough grapes for 60+ bottles of wine per year. I have room on the south side of my house for 4 more new grape vines...planted them and soon I'll have much more wine production...maybe 300 bottles per year?

Use a tool like Symbolab. It shows you the steps for different methods. Very useful.

Further, we should all remember to draw a graph as our first step. Symbolab, Desmos and Geogebra (my favourite) are all fantastic graphing software.

Also, for a quadratic if you know the zeroes (roots), it's half-way between them. So for the equation -(x-1)(x-5) = 0, the roots are x=1 and x=5, and the mid-point (maximum) is at x=3. Your graphing will confirm this.

Your stepdaughter might also have learnt that the mid-point of a quadratic ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is x=-b/2a. (This can be derived by setting the derivative equal to zero, but is generally just given to the students.) Her teacher may be expecting her to use that formula.

Alternatively the students might be required to determine and plot various data points using, say, Excel, and find the maximum this way.

The other point is that solutions often do not spring to mind immediately. That is why I ask students to send me their problems before our tutoring sessions. I often need time to think about them.

The fun of math is this exploration to find an answer. So try to get problems and give yourselves time (days) to explore them together.

I don't think voting with dollars will do much on its own, for two reasons.

1) Goods powered by software are frequently much better than goods without. I mean, compare a phone with software vs. without. Compare a car with software vs. without. Which one would you rather have?

2) Entire industries are converting to software-based capability. Speaking of phones and cars, try to find a new one these days without software in it.

I think we have to adjust, as a society.
WOW. SIGN. ME. UP! ...if I could only afford a Tesla. That was really impressive.
I hope you're not suggesting I didn't read past the first couple of paragraphs. The last line in my original post explicitly refers to the antepenultimate paragraph in the article.

The author's problem comes directly from not using pylint, then introducing it to a large, established project.

You simply can't get a list of 20,000 style issues when you first run this kind of checker, if you use it from the start of your project.

If you introduce lint later on, the proposed approach of whitelisting and ramping up is OK, and probably a good idea to start with if you are really swamped, but once you have done a bit of ramping up, you should switch to blacklisting and ramping down. IMO, unless you have tonnes of violations evenly distributed across all the different types of violations, then blacklisting and ramping down is a better approach.

Blacklisting is better than whitelisting in this case for a few reasons:

* By disabling all, you will miss out on any new rules you didn't know about (e.g. from plugins or new versions of pylint)

* Whitelisting requires you to think about all the possible violations, and work out if they matter to you; Blacklisting allows you to just look at the individual high-frequency violations in your codebase, and work out if those particular ones matter to you.

* Blacklisting allows you to knock off the low-hanging-fruit where there are just a few instances of a particular violation, and keep that aspect clean as you go. Whitelisting ignores anything you have personally deemed unimportant, possibly saving up a big cleanup for later.

Looking at one of the linked examples - there are disabled warnings that can introduce quite subtle bugs and maintainability problems (e.g. dangerous-default-value), some that are rarely seen and simple to fix (e.g. unnecessary-semicolon), some that are syntax errors in more recent Pythons (e.g. duplicate-argument-name). Even in an older project, nothing is gained by disabling these warnings and you just end up with noise in your pylintrc file.

Pylint produces a report that shows the counts of the different violations, in frequency order. Start at the top and work your way down to either produce a blacklist or fix the problems.

They definitely do. I've seen this while watching a Model S pull into a parking spot.

I guess they figure that if you can afford the car, the extra wear on the tires shouldn't be a problem for you? Dunno
Let me try to rewrite what you are saying in-line with my opinion, hopefully without any loss in translation. You are saying that statistics precision is dependent on model quality, and a better model yields a precision good enough to be usable.

You are correct. My problem with that approach is twofold:

1) There is no clear definition of "good enough";

2) The balancing mechanism between improving model accuracy and simplifying the model (for predictability/market competitiveness) involves actors with very unbalanced bargaining power (insurance companies vs very small subsets of customers)

If I can state the problem in another way: When you use a very refined statistical model for insurance premiums you are basically creating dynamic pricing for insurance services. Dynamic pricing hurts competition in the market through the development of an exaggerated bargaining power by one side of the market. Consumers would be worse off. What they gain in justice of their pricing (I get lower premiums because I'm a safe driver), they lose in bargaining power (via fragmentation of the consumer market).

Do you really care about owning something that much? What difference does it make if it gets you from A to B all the same?
This might be a reasonable argument except that Tesla makes clear that they plan to allow this as long as you use their ride sharing service, Tesla Network, which doesn't even exist yet.
Interesting for two reasons:

1. It is a self driving car, it is so clearly the future, I wish it existed now, it is going to be awesome (in my opinion).

2. Despite knowing about and following news about driverless cars for a while, there was something surprisingly (to me) compelling about watching the video. It's like you get a little taste of the full A to B that it can give you (door to door).

Who wants to speculate how long it will be until self-driving cars are common place in the UK? I need to know how long I have to save..!
Very clever. Anchor for home, and again trying for the mobile area where their creativity really worked (3DS). I'll be curious in the system specs and the decisions they made - such as having that apparent card slot. Hooray for the headphone jack.

But seriously the tech is very impressive. The journey was rather simple though, and didn't cover more difficult areas (inner city driving, heavy stop start traffic, roadblocks, road accidents and so on). I hope that Tesla test these things thoroughly because they've already got one death under their belt, it won't take many more to put people off completely.
This looks amazing - nice form factor for easy use on the go (demonstrated in many ways in the video, including on airplanes), but still letting you have a classic game experience. It shows smart usage of now standard wireless tech and highly portable & fast storage.

It's amazing how slow game consoles change minus beefed up computing capabilities, and while Nintendo has had some hit or misses, this shift looks like a vastly superior improvement over the initial ideas brought forth by the Wii U.

Still, very cool. And the presence of cameras everywhere should help navigate insurance/accident stuff everywhere, I'd hope.
Again, speaking as someone who has knowledge of the products, I can tell you that the Google Maps vans are useful for recording geography but would not be terribly portable to a new sensor suite mounted to a different car.

In the OP where I mention outfitting an example 2019 car, that car might be a current-model-year car with roughly similar vehicle dynamics to the proposed 2019 model. The only thing that they are paying particular attention to is the specific sensors in use and their placement on the vehicle. This apparently is critical to development of the driving model, the camera on the test vehicle must be in the precise position and direction and must react in the same way as the production model or the data is bordering on useless.

Now, with a full 3D pointcloud and enough sensor data you might be able to translate one recording into a lower-resolution resampling to model the production version, but I've not heard of anyone doing that. Test data is collected on the production sensor suite, no changes allowed.
I agree completely on the modern web.

>use them as twm was the latest revolution in window managers and work as if one just had multiple PDP-11 instances running simultaneously.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean: please work on your grammar.

You seem to be saying that we buy hefty workstations, and then run TWM on unix, and use them as a bunch of PDP-11s, and that this is bad. I'm not sure I agree on any of those points.

First off, a lot of us like lightweight WMs: You don't need the glitz, so why spend the cycles and processing power on it, when you could spend it on, say, your actual 3d graphics applications? And for many of us, they're just pleasant to work on.

Secondly, the terminal is an acceptable, and even good, UI for many purposes.

Finally, most unixes support OpenGL, so when you want to do that heavy graphics work, you can.

Are those parts patented? If not then the independents should be producing their own clones. And if they are, mechanical watches are supposed to have a very long service life, so they can wait for the patents to expire.

Unless the watch companies are doing something actually illegal I don't see how they are doing anything wrong. Why should they be forced to help their competitors?
Purchasing minFraud or creating device ID numbers? If you're on a RDP or VM who cares? The trail will lead back to nowhere.

You want to create a history, a trail, so to speak with browser/device, IP, and card usage. MaxMind's device ID tracking is similar to what Radar is offering. You've used your card before on a MaxMind protected website with device ID creating LSOs. Now they have you fingerprinted and they can tell if you suddenly start making purchases from an unusual PC/IP. It helps you as a legitimate cardholder at the expense of your privacy.

Stripe uses IESnare when you sign up to determine if you have any sketchy internet history or are a previously banned user. It's a similar strategy, pose as a legitimate user for a week by browsing the internet normally and search for payment processors to "compare" online. Then sign up after you've created history on the device and IP.

> Can you rather easily read Latin texts (assuming you haven't studied Latin, and are proficient in Sardo).

I guess the statement about "closeness" comes from the study (Pei, Mario 1949) referenced in the Wikipedia page about Sardinian language that somehow developed a metric and tested several languages against their parent one. Apparently Sardo has the lowest distance from Latin among Romance languages.

On a more practical side, I speak Sardo and studied Latin in high school. I cannot easily read Latin texts without a dictionary at hand and a little grammar review. I guess their similarity arises when you compare the written languages but most of us experience Sardo as a spoken-only language and many find it difficult to follow in written form. On the contrary we experience Latin as a written only language. Who knows, probably it would be a lot easier for us to understand spoken Latin.

Well, voting with my feet is easy in the case of Tesla (I think that they are poorly designed and don't feel a need for an automotive status signal at this time), but what about when there are no options, or when the options are so much worse that they're not really options at all (e.g. a car without air conditioning)?

Thanks! So it looks like the entire descent was telemetry-based (source [1], section 3.4):

The functions of the EDM GNC [Guidance, Navigation and Control system] are (1) to detect the
conditions adequate for the deployment of the
parachute and (2) to command and control the final
powered descent phase. The GNC sensors aboard the
EDM are the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and the
Radar Doppler Altimeter (RDA). A main challenge for
the EDM GNC relates to the fact that the EDM needs
to go into a hibernation mode during the 3-day long
coast phase. During this phase, the inertial reference of
the IMU is lost and an additional sensor is necessary in
order to rebuild the inertial attitude shortly before
entry.
