Yeah, it's like that almost everywhere in the world: girl pregnant, you don't want it? Shit, son.. time to be financially hamstrung for 18 years. Girl pregnant, you want to keep it? Shit, son.. you still don't have a say. It's fucking ridiculous.
> If I could buy health insurance separately from my company I'd look into it.

You can always venture away from your employer and visit healthcare.gov or a relevant state exchange.

From what you're describing I think what you're looking for is an HMO - either a branded facility like Kaiser or a "provider network" that agreed to guarantee prices to that specific insurance company.

You won't gain much transparency though - every provider works off the master price list, and the insurance company then negotiates a discount highly correlated with the size of that insurance company and general presence in the region.
Lets go see what their website says. How bad can it be?

> Take homosexuality for example. Having that information in the open means death in plenty of places

The fancy cyber word for this is "Opsec". If you're living somewhere where your homosexuality will get you killed, STFU. Don't email people about it. That's really tragic and wrong, but it's reality.

In an era where military supremacy has made decisive military action impossible, the reality is that ISIS type people duping the simpleminded to commit horrific acts is a thing. That's makes a vision of privacy that most people Instinctively want a threat in many people's eyes.
Well, this would be less then, wouldn't it?
Nothing. On the contrary, it's the most marketable skill, judging from the number of Bootcamps that prepare for it.
If I understand correctly, Intel CPUs around that time were super deeply pipelined so you could meet timing closure at such high frequencies. So yeah you can keep pushing the clock-speeds up and up but now a mispredicted branch really shoots you in the foot. Makes sense at the time because people associated clock speed directly with performance. Higher frequency more better. Intel kinda gave up on that at some point and started over with the core architecture design which has a lower clock speed but does more each pipeline stage.
Not enough time for electrons to move. Photons - another story.
A confidence interval won't adjust the points (point estimates) but will give those points with a lower sample size wide confidence intervals (often covering zero).

Using an (empirical) Bayesian multilevel model can both attach uncertainty intervals to the point estimates and appropriately "shrink" the estimates towards zero at the low-sample-size end.

The latter is more directly interpretable, at the cost of slightly more complex modelling (/assumptions).

10 Deep Learning Terms Explained in Simple English
I think this is a fruitful and promising discussion on the part of the WebKit team. The biggest problem here is that the antipathy towards Apple in response to the perception that Apple management thinks the Macintosh is a dead-end and this is starting to infect other discussions.

As someone else noted, Apple created OpenCL, helped make it a standard and dumped it. It embraced OpenGL when Mac OS X first came out and now it can't be bothered to implement anything beyond 4.1. All of these little irritations serve to remind people of the Apple of yore that had NIH in extremis and was the gang that couldn't shoot straight.

The hostility is unfortunate, but I fear it's going to become more frequent if Apple's senior management thinks the ship is fine.
dude. Im not even saying he is guilty here!! Why are you so insecure? Im just stating what had happened. I really dont give a shit about modi to care about him or his acts. You started typing without even reading the comment?
> Am not someone who can claim to "get" art

(All IMHO, and sorry if it states things you already know:) I 'get' art, and I'll say that 'getting' art is a misunderstood, over-emphasized concept. Find works that move you, that challenge your perspective. Who cares what everyone else thinks or likes? Find your art. Art is in the eye of the beholder; don't worry too much about the artist's intentions - they lost that control once they put it on paper - what does it mean to you, as it is right there at that moment? Art isn't some secret code that needs decoding; it is what it is, to you. Just to get your mind working on it; here are some questions to ask yourself and tips:

* How does it make you feel? To really grasp art, bring the emotional part of you to bear - it's more far effective than the rational side in this regard. Then try to articulate it (which ties in the rational side). If I can't seem to get traction then I just think 'how do I feel?' - not even how does the object in front of me make me feel, but just 'how am I feeling?' - and often, presto, everything comes into focus.

* Unlike real life, nothing in a work of art is accidental or gratuitous (unless it's intentionally that way!). Why is that red line there? What would a different red look like? A much thicker line? A less opaque one? Rotated 90 degrees? Or, why is it set on a sunny afternoon? What if it was cloudy? Nighttime? Moonlight and stars?

* Often the most powerful question: What are the assumptions behind image in front of you? What didn't they paint (or sculpt, etc.)? If it's a Renior of nudes by a stream, the painting assumes there is beauty in pink flesh, in nature, a relationship between those two things, and it assumes there is no shame in it, no danger, but something positive.

If a work of art makes me uncomfortable, that's a great starting point - what is making me uncomfortable? It's just an object; it can't do me any harm or do anything at all. Often the works that make me most uncomfortable at first - the ones I hate - are the ones that I love the most in the long run. The ones that bore me are the worst.

Reading a book on art history can help you understand a lot of the context behind and specific images in the art (X was a big issue at the time, or image Y represented something in that culture), but IMHO it is much more valuable to read later, to learn something that enhances your burgeoning art appreciation rather than to learn about something you aren't familiar with in the first place. Just find what you love.
They explicitly said that it's a placeholder. They weren't suggesting it be used. It was just something easy for them to rig up for their initial demo.

I think you're reading a lot of intention that isn't there into that placeholder.
> Realistically speaking, we should be able to see NetBurst based processors reach somewhere between 8 – 10GHz in the next five years before the architecture is replaced yet again

was a statement made by anandtech. Did Intel actually strive for those numbers?
This comment makes no sense. Neither electrons nor photons are what move through wires to propagate electrical signals.
Same here. What made me like fleet despite the many problems with it is the simplicity and that it is not a container scheduler but a systemd unit scheduler, so it is far more flexible than just a container scheduler.

I have projects where Kubernetes is probably the right choice, but I have many more where Kubernetes is massive overkill and where I also need/want the distributed systemd units.
> Temperature? Stability?

Yes. Notice how after it was clear that P4 was a dead end they went and dusted off their P3 mobile line that they had been making more power efficient the whole time?
Google debuts Cloud Search, a smart search engine for G Suite customers
Its the inverse of network effect.

A few years ago I bought a GPG card and used it to encrypt long term backup media. I created a key, did the whole PGP thing, etc.

It was cool and all, but it's value from a communications perspective is zero. I have about 2,000 contacts that I keep track of... and exactly two had public keys. The value of that network is near zero, because I really don't transmit anything via e,ail that has a high value justifying the considerable hassle.

At work, we have the ability to use Microsoft rights management to optionally encrypt email or attachments. It is easy as pie -- literally press a button. In some cases Outlook will nudge you to do so! With nearly 400M messages, less that 20k were protected, and most of those were for a pilot using policy based encryption.

Low-cost position-tracking Daydream VR
Article says: Obviously this 8 – 10GHz clock range would be based on Intel’s 0.07-micron process that is forecasted to debut in 2005. These processors will run at less than 1 volt, 0.85v being the current estimate.

Intel introduced a 65 nm (0.065 micron) process in 2006. The "Cedar Mill" Pentium 4 processor ran at 3.6 GHz at a whopping 1.3V although a small double-pumped part of the processor ran at 7.2 GHz. It could be overclocked to 4.5/9.0 GHz at 1.4V.

The discrepancy between 0.85V and 1.3V was caused by the end of Dennard scaling. Basically transistors require much more voltage than predicted and thus consume far more power than predicted. Although the transistors can technically run at 9 GHz, the resulting power density is very difficult to cool.
Technically it was heat but mostly it was due to (i) Economics, there was less demand for faster clock speed. Otherwise more research could have gone towards solving heat problem. (ii) Each cycle of CPU was more efficient with ability to execute multiple instructions in a single cycle and with more efficient instruction sets.

Surprisingly, power consumption also made huge impact. As tablets and laptops got more popular than desktop battery life became a major concern and thus TDP played major role in research.

Try this fun experiment: Underclock your CPU by half a GHz and see if you notice the difference in your day to day work.

I'd definitely say electrons propagate through wires to carry signals. The electrons charge the gates on the fets which opens or closes the channel, which allows electrons to flow through another wire. I wouldn't say it's terribly explanatory tho
heat mainly and the shift toward mobile devices which implies good autonomy and power efficiency.
Haha, yeah P4 had multiple pipeline stages just for propagation delay.

That photo of the inverter is beautiful, as I child I was passionated about electronics, I made some projects like audio amplifier and FM transmitter, never thought we were going to have electronics in cars at this level.

I agree with your basic sentiment, that it's wrong that we so often assume that housework is women's work, and that it would be better if that gender expectation were not taken as a fundamental given.

I disagree with the view that the washing machine, and other domestic labor-saving devices, haven't been deeply beneficial for hundreds of millions of women, even though it is still a mistake that we still see doing the laundry as a job for women. I disagree because changing cultures is really hard and really slow, while changing technology is, by comparison, incredibly easy and fast. And it is absolutely better to make easy, fast changes, whenever that is possible, than to sneer at them because they do not solve the underlying problem. They still solve some part of the problem. Sometimes to a significant degree. That matters: billions of hours of trivial human labor have been saved, many of them going instead to the leisure, study, and thought necessary to move people toward the real solution.
>We are about to face a few individuals with technology will hold massive power over everyone else.

There are plenty of counterindications to that. For instance, many forms of technology are becoming increasingly widely adopted, at a rapid pace. I gave the adoption of smartphones as one example.

>Why not include mice, they have 97.5% of our genes, as being successful? Why not all mammals? Oh, except horses, of course, because you said in a previous comment we are different from them.

I would say the success of human beings is by some metrics a success for mice, mammals etc as well..

Why would that be the case? If we could run CPUs at 50Ghz with no problems why wouldn't we?

Edit: I probably exaggerate. I just mean that higher clock speed still have benefits.
No, it was only because of power density i.e. too much heat dissipated in a really small area. There is no way to "solve" this issue, other than to just throw more cooling at it. And since more cooling = more money, Intel (and friends) went down the multicore route instead.

No amount of R&D spending can bend the laws of physics to overcome the inherent limitations of silicon. I'm sure Intel also looked into alternative semiconductors (e.g., III-V) before giving up on the 10 GHz dream.
