I can't comment on the specific details, I've never used EFL, but in general, when encountering problems with open source software you can do one of two things:

1. Write a long and angry rant about how terrible the software is on a public forum.

2. File issues, participate in the community, ask questions on the mailing list, submit pull requests to improve the docs, try and understand the design decisions behind the software you're using - it's possible that the author knows more about the problem than you, and there are perfectly good reasons for why things are as they are.

One of these things is more productive than the other.
I've got a feeling that if you plot intelligence along the x-axis and "self-assessed probability that I can get away with it" on the y-axis, you'd see a classic bathtub curve.
There's a documentary about the reality of prostitution called "Very Young Girls" that I suggest everyone watch. It dispels a lot of the myths around the realities of prostitution in America. By and large it is the manipulation of underage girls who end up victimized by their pimps, their johns, and society in general.

If you're not updating the PHP/Node.js library, and you're not updating any data you give it, where does it get the information it needs to update the URL/SRI tag?

And if you are doing any of those things when Stripe pushes an update, how is it any different that having to update the URL/SRI tag?
If you want to go down this road, then we will have to switch to a nuclear decay based coin or something like that. In the case of a coin toss there never was any real randomness, as you say we were just ignorant of the initial conditions. Given a distribution over the possible initial conditions, we can determine the probabilities for heads and tails. The possibly huge number of degrees of freedom and deterministic chaos will of course make this an unpleasant exercise.
I agree, moles are a special case, and they are hard to diagnose with 100% certainty.

I've had this discussion with my SO (who is a doctor) many times, she strongly believes the breadth+depth of knowledge required for such an AI would be too great, but perhaps as a tool for GPs, or for specific, easy ailments (i.e. telling a patient what they don't have, and if it's serious enough to raise the issue to an actual doctor).
But what are Germany's laws about discovery? This seems like a problem that would have occurred even before computers: if an executive is handwriting letters at home to engage in illegal activity for the benefit of their company, does a German court have authority to search the home?

This is an American case, and it's being litigated in accordance with American law, so the judge is using American rules about employment to achieve the goal here. I would be surprised if there weren't some way to accomplish the same goal in Germany.

> So he should give up his 5th amendment right to fend off an accusation

You're missing the point. The fifth just says that you can't have your silence held against you. Once you answer the question by saying anything at all, then the answers can be used against you, especially if you're lying. I believe he's under oath in these proceedings.

> None of the most relevant facts of the case have come to light.

No, we're talking about the judge's statements, somebody who has seen all the evidence and is speaking as a professional jurist.

And unlike the rest of the Uber accusations, he has gone on record with these statements after seeing some fairly strong documented evidence. The fact that we haven't seen it yet is immaterial.

When my dad had a heart issue in 2003, his doctor strictly told him to stay away from Horlicks (whilst saying our regular cup of coffee in the morning was fine. It's a South Indian cup, much much smaller than the American version). But every well-wishing visitor would bring a pack of horlicks, and we had some 25-30 packs lying around in the house.

Still better than one of the nurses who eventually showed up at our house with a bunch of Amway products.
Of course it was nothing like today, but it was a far cry from the isolated, dark world I was taught about where people didn't leave their villages and nobles were in their castles fighting off barbarians who shuttled between Norway and Britain for some occasional pillaging.

Skilled craftsman who worked on large projects moved between them. Arab scholars and traders brought ancient texts into Europe. Traders brought spices from the east. Viking traders who weren't pillaging Britain traveled through Russia as far south as modern day Turkey. It was a far more interconnected world than I thought when I was 12.
Quickly looked at your source without the slightest knowledge of Nim language. It was certainly Python-like in ease of reading like some here told me. Nice, clean look to it vs the C stuff. Exception is types.nim file that just looks syntactically rougher than others with the asterisks. It looks like class or struct definitions but I'm curious if the asterisk has an effect like it does in C or what's it do?
ISPs, search engines, ad networks, and email services are different markets, even if some of the participants overlap.

How does deregulating ISPs get us any closer to regulating search engines?

Congratulations to the team involved! In particular Oliver, Eric and Mac.

As a CarND student who enrolled because of the Open Source aspect I'd love to know if Voyage is planning to contribute open source software like Comma.ai and Polysync.
Exactly. Google provides a service - indexing the web and helping you find the information you are looking for. That's the product. That's why I go to Google for. In that sense, Google is clearly a destination.
The argument that Google and Verizon are somehow similar is disingenuous at best and malicious at worst.

I was wondering why Ovaltine seemed to have basically disappeared from shelves during my college years (late 2000s)
>You don't have to use the Internet. You could walk straight to your favorite brick and mortar store or the movie theater. But you don't want to do that. Verizon wants to be compensated for its service, just as Google does.

And we do. I pay them every month as a matter of fact.
Regulations can be easier for Google than any other company building now while still being more difficult than when the incumbent companies put their wires in. Google Fiber didn't expand to California because of CEQA; the practical effect of CEQA is that it lets any property owner along the dig sue to block the project entirely. Note that Google Fiber's beta test was at Stanford, which is in Silicon Valley but happens to be private property.
Those shows are pretty interesting. The judges aren't real judges (though most of them were judges in the past). You might wonder, as I did, why on earth defendants who are often obviously in the wrong, would agree to go on the show. The way they often work is if the plaintiff wins their judgement fee is paid by the producers of the show (not the defendant). If the defendant wins both parties receive an appearance fee. It's a binding arbitration as well so going on the show is a great deal for the defendant because there is no financial repercussions to them, it may get them out of a potential judgement in a real civil court, and they might even make some money. All it costs them is potentially looking like an idiot on national television.
I wonder why they would be unwelcome. I'm not being sarcastic here. I mean, what's wrong with more people? I would love to see that article.

I want to also recommend the following:

git config --global stash.showPatch true: A recent addition to git which defaults the -p flag to `git stash show`; meaning `git stash show` shows the diff from that stash (should really be default...)

git config --global rebase.autostash true: will automatically stash and unstash the working directory before and after rebases. This makes it possible to rebase with changes in the repo.

git config --global log.decorate full: Always decorate `git log`
> Google isn't the destination.

Google is many destinations. The ISP isn't a destination, aka a host[1]

> Google's top services

...are a different problem at the application layer[2]. Yes, surveillance capitalism business models at Google et al is a serious problem that needs to be addressed. It's still a separate problem from ISP-level surveillance. It is unlikely that the same solution can be applied to both problems.

An ISP - aka a business that routes packets in the internetworking layer[3], is a very different market than the network endpoints ("destination", aka "host"). I can (and do) drop outgoing packets to many destinations.

> the content (website, video, etc.)

You're conflating internet hosts with services provided by those hosts.

Thanks Ariel! We will definitely be contributing open source. It may not be a total open source self-driving car, but we will be very active.
Right, things are a bit confused at the moment because the parent's hypothetical is so close to the case at hand.

I'm addressing parent's concrete hypothetical -- where the person accused of theft is the ceo of the company.

> that would be his time to enter in a plea of not guilty.

I think I'm wrong here, actually :)

dragonwriter provides a compelling explanation, elsewhere in this thread, for why entering a "not guilty" plea is very different from stating "I'm not guilty" outside the context of entering a plea.
> Bus.com is the destination you’d expect to head to for what the company does...

Is the writing quality of techcrunch articles normally this poor?
I personally feel they should keep the sharethebus.com brand.

The opening of the TechCrunch article states "It’s actually a pretty great URL: Bus.com. It’s also a much better brand identity than Sharethebus ..." - however they don't say why it is a much better brand identity.

Simply being a 3-letter domain doesn't make for a better brand identity. They have traction and funding, so it they may not see much of an impact because it is still a utility... but how would you react to seeing a promotion relating to a festival talking about "Bus.com" or "Sharethebus.com" - which one gives you a feeling of something more than a utility?
The asterisks are what define a symbol as "exported" from a module -- every symbol is private to the module scope by default, but able to be exported by applying the asterisks to it; types.nim is funky because I was exploring a slightly different file/module structure (and having a singular place for top-level shared types that most other modules import is quite useful at times, and gets around circular dependencies), except it does end up looking slightly odd!
Saw big pixels. Expected something 2600-esque. Was very pleasantly surprised - smooth and fun!

If I may be lazy and ask instead of reading all the docs right now - how much processing power would it take to implement PICO-8? I know you say there's RasPI support but this feels like it deserves to run on a proper 8-bit micro, not just a small Linux SoC.
Oh, scheming up ways to get me back in the game, eh? At first, I thought it was a glitch or something that can't be what it appears. Then, I find you actually added God Mode to the game. ;)
i have always trouble understaing prolog, lot of guide online seem to just tackle the syntax or assume you already know a lot of logic programming, for example the first example in the link (https://www.metalevel.at/prolog/facets):

list_length([], 0).
list_length([_|Ls], N) :-
N #> 0,
N #= N0 + 1,
list_length(Ls, N0).

i don't undestand it, i read the segment describing it multiple time but i still don't get it, and is not the syntax i don't undestand how it should work, a tried reading the next few chapter but i feel i'm missing something!
is there a "prolog for dummies" out there?
CEQA is quite a bit different than saying the "municipal governments are in Verizon's pocket." Also, CEQA was enacted in 1970. All modern broadband networks were built under the auspices of laws like that.
We've been building an open source self-driving car alongside providing an amazing self-driving car curriculum. We've found that the two equate to one of the best educational experiences on the planet!
I appreciate it. So, it looks weird because it's an experiment with something non-standard? Makes sense. Things stay clean overall.
I've worked for employers who were 100% convinced this is theft, even without some intent to use that information, and even discussed very similar hypotehticals in on boarding.
> Is there a rational reason to distrust telcos more than Google?

I grew up under Telecom, later called Telstra.
This might have been mentioned somewhere else but - will browsers remove or make an exception instead of blocking mixed-content[0] when a sub-resource integrity check is present? I mean there really is no reason to be paying the TLS over-head for commonly used libraries.

In other words, the premodern world was indeed a place where most people didn't venture beyond their own village.

Not so sure about that. Consider the Didache, a church constitution and katechesis manual dated to the late 1st century AD. Chapters 12 and 13 are devoted to brothers in faith from other towns and itinerant prophets. Christianity at that time was not a religion of the wealthy. If this very practical work spends so much time on the subject then travel must also have been possible for the smallfolk.
This is both gorgeous and well needed!
Did you tend to work alone, and, if not, how did you choose your team?
Do you have anything similar that you would recommend?
> They just didn't figure on a bureaucratic quagmire.

They also apparently didn't figure on the slow and expensive business of lobbying. If the matter is unimportant to voters, that makes it available to what I will charitably call "the most civic-minded and purposefully engaged company".
Three steps
1) Also built a great powerpoint/pitch
2) Built a great hack
3) Made sure to demo something real and splashy which gave my pitch an edge.

That all being said I've still been burned by pitch only and poor judging rubrics. I could go on and on but one of the main things is ask if you really have to build everything and build to the judges expectations (which they may only want a good pitch), not your own (you may think they want some amazing coded product).
I maintain several RHEL and CentOS clusters.

I never install anything from source. Packages from yum repositories only.

Upgrade OpenOffice with a downloaded RPM? No. The point of RedHat is stability for enterprises. If you want the latest version of everything, RedHat is the wrong distribution.
If you Google it, this is just an art project/alien abduction hoax.
Two important devils in the details:

1) As I understand it, this isn't anything like a charitable act. The cameras are free; they sell the cloud storage and other services. Which is great! A fine strategy. But let's not mistake it for public service.

2) (more importantly) the specific features and details of police cameras are probably more important than those of any other piece of police equipment. If individual officers can turn them off at a crucial moment, then all cops will be pressured to do so in order to cover up perjury by the bad cops. This is how bad apples spoil the bunch.

If, on the other hand, the cameras cannot be turned off at that crucial moment, and the data cannot be hidden from public view via a simple FOIA/FOIL or similar request, this will hugely empower the good and honest cops who can now say, "Sorry bud, I can't turn my camera off and I can't hide the data. You're going to have to own up to what you did."

That small detail can be the difference between a functional, mature civil society and a dystopia.
Stopping using Google is pretty feasible for most people. There are other free search engines, other free email providers, other smartphone operating systems (also distributions of their own with tracking removed), and Google's third party tracking is trivial to block in their own browser. You could argue that other options for these services are of worse quality, but pushing people to use your services because they are better quality even though there are other options is exactly what we want businesses to be doing.

If you have even two choices of ISPs, you are very lucky. For a lot of people it's Verizon or the highway, and for those lucky few with choice it's usually something like Comcast or Verizon, which now that I think about it doesn't sound so lucky after all.

I understand arguing that neither of these companies should get to pull this shit. I don't get how you could claim that there isn't a material difference in the level (and type) of coercion being applied.
Perhaps a right, but I'd be more comfortable if the data had was a touch anonymous. Like, no names but perhaps with job title and years of experience or similar.
I was curious what they normally charge for the device/service; according to a price list[0] I found from last year, the body cams are $399, the docking stations are $249, and the Evidence.com license is $948/yr (though I'm not familiar with the industry, so I have no idea if anyone actually pays the list prices).

Your understanding of what unlimited vacation means is not correct. It means: "more vacation than most jobs, probably" -- let's say about 5-6 weeks with stray days here and there.
Thank you for smoking.

Best movie clip ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrxRCTUt6OY

It also helps when you have investments in cigarette companies, because why not? When there are advertisements sent out by the very companies themselves to avoid their product, and people still do it? There must be something to it! And money to be made!

But in all seriousness, everyone chooses their poison which comforts them, whether it be alcohol, prescription drugs, cigarettes, food, television, etc. This is the beauty of free will and choice. No matter what the research says, people will still do it. I've work in a hospital before and saw plenty of patients with lung cancer who passed away right before my eyes. Once the scene was cleared and cleaned up, the nurses and doctors would go right outside and smoke cigarettes. They know the possibility is there, yet make the choice to continue doing self-harm.
That's it. For the most part, one would just export the symbols from given modules as needed (and a lot of the properties on some of the ref object types are needlessly exported, too, which makes it worse)

One other thing is that the {.compile.} pragma in term.nim is not needed anymore, as Nim's stdlib has added a lot of those in[0], but it does show how easy it is to bridge between the two languages (and I'm not much of a C developer!)

I disagree - data convergence is already here if you want it. Device/UI convergence is the pinnacle of everything to me. Meaning my phone should be able to power everything from a laptop shell to a monitor. That was the exciting part, not just an interface. No one cares if context on UI changes per device implementation - we already deal with that daily.
Congratulations with the company, Oliver! I wish an infinite success! (:

Is Voyage willing to sponsor visas for future employees? Are there junior positions available for new grads?

Thank you!
Looks like it's been slashdotted.
Okay, but in your use case, what should happen when two nodes get conflicting writes at approximately the same time?
What are you (or anyone in the space) doing to advance the public's perception of the viability of self-driving cars?

Whenever I speak to laypeople about self-driving cars their mind immediately shoots to the 1 million+ ways that things can go terribly wrong, or even slightly wrong. Therefore, they have no interest in self-driving cars.

It'd be helpful if we could see when self-driving cars get there.

Like crash-safety tests soothe people's nerves, a battery of self-driving tests -- visual, visceral -- would silence objections. Something to point to... something tangible. A way to score the playing field.

Because between Google, Tesla, Uber, Cruise, Voyage, and whoever else, it's insanely difficult to see through the fog.
Yeah if we're just declaring rights that sound good could I prioritize my right to privacy in this area instead?
