This thread is getting old, so I'll respond collectively to the comments since my last comment.

They produced videos that can't be distributed. This isn't much different from say having an electronics project that isn't FCC certified, not having licensed the content in a video or not distributing source files with software containing GPL code. I can produce all those things all I want, but I can't distribute it and I can't continue distributing it just because I've already started.
>3- What will be the safeguard to prevent a maleficient/egoist minds to lock the access to all that abundancy ? That's quite philosophical question as humanity never experienced that kind of pure evil mindset. Every dictatorship, slavery, oppression were always driven by the context of competition towards the control over a limited economic resources.

The best safeguard against someone keeping AI for themselves would be to distribute the knowledge and equipment as widely as possible, and to build open alternatives where ones don't already exist. As the Cypherpunk FAQ tells us, the best way to secure digital rights is through technological solutions.
The repetition makes sense to me because it works in both languages. Mt. Tate would confuse locals. Mt. Tateyama satisfies the need to make it "english" and also works in Japanese because they can just ignore the Mt. part.
They originally negotiated licenses super cheap as the studios thought they were just some niche upstart. Now they're eating the market the studios are realizing their mistake and either not renewing licenses or jacking the rates up massively - hence the move into original content which can't be taken away.
I don't lock my door because there's a lot of people around that I don't trust. My neighbors are some of them. I don't know half of them by name. Why should I trust them?

Maybe that's part of the difference. In the US you have to keep records of stuff. At my company, we have to keep records for ~7 years, IIRC.

Half the medicine pharmacists administer is poison that does kill some of their patients. Read the side effects -- liver damage, hypertension, death. They know those outcomes are possible and will happen in some percentage of patients.

There is a difference between giving someone poison for no reason, or purely out of malice, vs. doing it because there is some countervailing advantage that justifies the risk. And sometimes the advantage is just that it costs less than an alternative.

People know that an old Ford Mustang isn't as safe as a new Mercedes S-Class, but it's also less expensive.

Man, why does everyone assume that rich people just take their money and start companies? Do you realize how risky it is to start a business? You are highly likely to lose EVERYTHING you invest, as well as ruin your reputation, if you start a business from scratch and it fails to take off.

Almost all wealthy people just invest their money in stocks, hedge funds, VCs, and other intangible assets that don't immediately produce a noticeable economic impact, aside from a rise in the stock market.

Ditto. I know it's his creation and he has the right to do what he likes with it, but it's such a damn missed opportunity. A game as complex and detailed as DF cries out for a vibrant coding/modding community.

consumerism is just giving the people what they want. It might be distracting, but just because that's what people want to do - chat to friends, play games, buy fashionable clothes etc. Politics is where the manipulation happens.

Quality-wise, Guetzli is applicable to about 50% of the JPEG images in the internet. The other half is stored with lower than 85 quality, and Guetzli declines to attempt to compress to that quality.

Another limitation is that Guetzli runs very slowly. This gives a further limiting axis: Guetzli in its current form cannot be applied to a huge corpus of images. Perhaps this covers half of the images on the internet.

So, let's say that Guetzli is 25% relevant to the web pages.

I'm not making the case that Marxism had good ideas here, I'm making the case that Marxism had ideas that led to change in the direction it seems, without collapse, in the places where actual Marxism is a thing, and that the collapsed systems that called themselves Marxist shared a common deviation from Marxism on fundamental points stemming from their shared point of departure, Leninism.

Also, treating Marxism the way you suggest empowers the people who will use association with Marxism (which whether or not people who think Marxism had good ideas avoid the name, people who don't can still draw the connections) as an attack against an idea, leveraging the failure of Leninist societies to suggest that anything associated with Marxism is bad. So, no, I'll continue to point out that that involves not only the ad hominem fallacy, but also the fallacy of equivocation.

Netflix lacks the issues that lead Facebook not to implement a thumbs-down. Netflix should still want a thumbs-down.

You should also distinguish between aggregate ratings and individual ratings. Metacritic and other aggregators normalize to some scale, but not all the individual reviews use the normalized granularity. A common movie case is Metacritic having to normalize a 5-star, in half-star increments, review to a 100-point scale. I believe Metacritic also allows user reviews to use a 10-point scale, but present the average on a 100-point scale (the first ten integers but with one decimal point, technically allowing 101 ratings from 0.0 to 10.0). Aggregate ratings always have more detail than their constituent parts.

This is pretty typical of Western Canada. I'm not shocked at all. You're talking about an area of Canada that is all about oil, gas, and mining--natural resources. The tech industry is non-existent out here with the exception of Vancouver. I also heard that this particular company is notorious for letting you go if you don't catch on quickly. If I were her, I'd run far away from this joke of a tech company.

>labor shortage in the trades

Every time you hear "labor shortage" you need to add "at the offered salary/wage"--they need to offer more money.

Why do you think people would rather work a minimum wage job than take your advice? You offer literally no explanation and just make claims without any evidence. You are speaking from opinion, not fact.
Funnily enough, there is a paper on exactly what you're referring to from Microsoft Research called "Flexible Paxos":

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1608.06696.pdf

The gist of it is that there are realistically 2 quorums to be had: One for read/write to a cluster, and one for leader election. Assuming leader election is a relatively uncommon event (as it is in Paxos), you can require more quorum nodes for leader election while allowing less quorum nodes for quorum read/write. This means you get strong consistency with better performance.

Distributed systems are one of my favorite things. I literally spent part of an evening with a beer reading a small handful of papers like this one. If you want an absolute treasure trove of similar works, visit the blog of Adrian Coyler:

He has a good writeup on the Flexible Paxos paper as well:

Ask HN: How can I influence tech leadership in my org as a Senior Developer?
I work as senior developer in a Moderately big tech company​, with 3000 employees worldwide. I really like working here. I sorta love my employer. I really want to contribute towards its success in whatever capacity I can. Currently I do it by trying to produce the best quality software I can. I care deeply about training new people. I evangelize good engineering practices.

But I feel I can do more, but I am not sure what. I am an OK leader. I would like to develop the tech leadership to help my company grow.

Funny, I very much like Metroidvanias exactly for this aspect (the world feels much more like a puzzle, which grants you a feeling of reward once you "solve" it).

On the other hand, I've always loved Gothic[1] for it's gating mechanism. If you got mangled by raptors ore some ork, that meant the area was certainly not meant for your level.

The other thing that annoys me with ratings in general, specifically places like amazon, is when people pan a perfectly good item because of some third party factor.

I kind of want to be on your side about the weapon durability. It annoyed me at first. But by the first beast I almost found it to be the other way around. I leave so many weapons behind because even after doubling my weapon inventory size I'm still constantly full of high caliber weapons. Especially after getting the Master Sword.

All of the guardians I have faced in the combat shrines drop weapons that at least equal (usually exceed) the total damage/durability consumed to defeat them.

Also: Shooting the guardians in the eye stuns them giving you a long window of respite during a fight.

For those that are concerned whether the animations work on mobile or not.

They do.

Well, as long as the browser of your choice supports the CSS properties in use. Which, at this point it would be easier to keep a list of browsers that do not support such things as opposed to ones that do.

It's just the site itself misbehaves on mobile. To test the animations on a phone, just tell your mobile browser to request the desktop site. You should be able to see the page then. More than likely that is, your experience may vary. I was able to see the desktop site on my Android phone. I was just unable to cycle through all the different animations to see them in action or choose them. That has more to do with how the UI of the site is built, nothing to do with the animations.

The law in question excluded "canning, processing, preserving, freezing, drying, marketing, storing, packing for shipment or distribution of" agricultural products from the requirement for 1.5x overtime pay.

In a sane world where everyone used the Oxford comma, that sentence would be clear and the last item in the sequence would be "packing (for shipment or distribution)" and the drivers would be entitled to their overtime pay. But the Maine Legislature's drafting manual recommends omitting the Oxford comma so the above sentence is ambiguous. And it's really ambiguous because either meaning could really be what the Legislature intended.

It's very hard to judge the quality of teaching, because nearly all students of a non-catastrophic class will give good ratings. Few students will take the same material from more than one teacher so they can make comparisons.

For some input from someone who's never been a Zelda fan (me), when watching this game, I think I understood the hype. Previous Zelda titles never interested me, but this one looks like it takes some of the best elements from the Dark Souls and Monster Hunter series gameplay and applies them to the Zelda universe, with the bonus of a huge open world ready for exploration. It has me considering a Switch just for this one game as well. It looks like an incredibly enjoyable to me as a fan of those aforementioned game series, though of course I haven't personally played it yet.

To define slavery first we would need to define freedom. I think you can agree with me that everyone defines freedom differently. For a person born into slavery, freedom will have a different meaning than for a person that never knew slavery, hunger or misery. I know that this is really a non-answer, but honestly I don't feel qualified to even attempt to define what slavery is and what it isn't.
What is the performance penalty you're talking about?

Gryadka does 1 roundtrip to write a value and its performance (4720 rps, 1.68ms latency) is very similar to Etcd (5227 rps, 1.55ms).
It sounds like you're talking about UX. There is quite a bit of intersect, but you can have fantastic UX and still be aesthetically gross. You can't have a weird interface that doesn't make sense and still claim to have a good user experience.

And on the other side, an app can be aesthetically beautiful and total have crap UX, which is too common with a lot of startuppy products.

I don't have Netflix, so I 'm not clear if the rating shown to users is changing. Or does it not show a rating, just use it to decide what movies to surface for you?

In any case, simplifying the ratings users can bestow makes a lot of sense, unfortunately. We like to imagine people carefully considering the merits and flaws like a professional reviewer, but the fact is that the vast majority of users only ever use two ratings anyway: if they like it, 5 stars; if they didn't, 1 star. There's maybe a third option where if they're ambivalent they just don't rate it.

So star ratings aren't actually very useful for evaluating products. This xkcd https://xkcd.com/1098/ made me realize that an Amazon product which has a 20% chance of exploding when you open the box, and otherwise works normally but unexceptionally, is gonna average out to a four-star rating for a product you really shouldn't buy. I always look at the one-star reviews before buying stuff now, no matter how few of them there are; knowing a thing's failure modes is much more useful than a bunch of praise.
Which is also why, as you might know, they explicitly call them heavy and super respectively.

"The deal", as I see it, is to find the treasure by solving the riddles and clues, not by stumbling across it by chance.

If the clues were sufficient to pinpoint the location with 1m precision, it would be acceptable to hide something so well that you would have to be within 1m to notice it. A buried treasure would require this magnitude of precision.

If the clues give 10m precision, I'd expect that the target should blend in a bit, but still be detectable from 3m away. A buried or submerged treasure marked with an obvious blaze could get away with this magnitude.

At 100m precision, you actually need to be sort of obvious. At 1km precision, it should be painted hunters orange and shoot fireballs into the air periodically. At 10km precision... you probably should have taken some of that treasure and hired Will Shortz or some other professional puzzlemaster as a consultant.
That makes sense. I guess ratings are important to Netflix enough that they could invest in that.

Thumbs up/down is definitely easier, though, and don't take away any satisfaction from rating IMO.
And it's really ambiguous because either meaning could really be what the Legislature intended.

Initially, I was going to say that they should evaluate the merits of the law based on the spirit of the law. But you are right, it really could go either way.
To me it sounds like they should instead use categories as hints for how to weigh ratings of different users for different categories.
I definitely don't want my feed to be filled with silly comedies all of a sudden.
