Of course they did. It was heretical to imply that something conceivable by man would be impossible for God to create. If we can imagine it, he can do it. A rather roundabout way of arriving at a theory of parallel universes, but fascinating nonetheless.
I don't think you addressed any of the arguments here, so quite far from obvious...?
It's unsafe for a compiler to do this in general (i.e. without annotations) because it can't determine dependencies that are external to the program -- e.g. `one=get(); two=get()`.
The dependency between one and two is not obvious to a compiler when IO is involved, so it has to assume the two `gets' has to be executed sequentially.
There are other kinds of prediction systems that don't use markets. One researcher developed a system that just recruited a bunch of random people and took the predictions of those with the best historical track record. And found it was much better than chance or predictions by CIA analysts with a lot more information and knowledge.

Others have found that markets can work almost as well with just play money. It's just a game with no real stakes, but the wisdom of crowds and competitive human nature still makes it work. It's much much harder to manipulate though, because you can't spend real money to buy predictions. You can only get play money by organically earning it over a long period of time making actually good predictions.

I don't think real prediction markets are as bad as you think though. Especially if all bets must be public. Then manipulation and conflicts of interest are easily detectable. And you can earn money by betting against them. People would quickly make bots that just bets against new accounts betting lots of money, or inverts the trades of people with historically worse than chance track records. People will develop meta models that make bets based on the trades of other predictors. And come up with crazy machine learning systems to detect manipulation.

If that somehow doesn't work, the best system might be a combination. E.g. have a group of predictors who make the final decision, but have access to the results of a prediction market. And can decide when to trust it and when not to.

Of course that shouldn't be necessary. Because if there is anyone that can tell better than chance when the market is wrong, they could just make tons of money betting on the market itself. And in the process correct the error.

A close friend had a few dogs that did exactly this. He started filming them and recording times when he was out and decided to head home. He never found an explanation, other than his dogs were psychic (and this is the most hardcore 'there is no god or magic' scientist I've met).
Dear god, I hope there isn't. While my online persona is pretty much the same as my real-life persona, I know quite a few people who have more than one online identity. I would hate to have someone characterized with a mental illness because their psychologist came across their old tumblr or livejournal.
No, it doesn't.

It means that they are able to compute the users' password with resources available to them, not that they store clear-text passwords.

If a password is stored in such a way as to be decipherable by using a cryptographic algorithm to recombine multiple (hopefully some being secret) elements, it's not stored in cleartext.

We don't know that this is the case as far as legoland goes, but we also don't know that they store clear-text passwords simply by being able to return one to a specific user via email. It's an unsafe practice (cleartext email password return), but it doesn't indicate much about how they choose to store passwords.

My understanding is that you can invest in startups without being an accredited investor if it's part of crowdfunding as per "Regulation Crowdfunding" https://www.sec.gov/info/smallbus/secg/rccomplianceguide-051... .

Also, remember that the accreditation is not some strict formal process. You simply must be able to show you fall under one of the criteria. If your net worth is over 1M$ - you already ARE an accredited investor.

Granularity is impractical when applying patches is optional, as it drastically increases the number of applied patch combinations to QA.

But my point was more towards MS programatically alerting customers as to what programs and subsystems patches might effect.

As far as I've seen, they give you a file list, some brief notes on what the patch is for, and assurance that they internally QA'd it.

But I can't see why there's any technical reason that my system can't warn me that an MS library called into frequently by a particular program I use every day is modified in this patch.

Which is something I care about almost as much as "MS QA passed this patch" (side note: thanks so much to all the unloved, unknown internal QA folks out there, keeping things from breaking!).
I've found human lives to consist in significant part of feedback loops. Positive feedback loops, and negative feedback loops.

A person receiving positive feedback tends to feel better, be more socially comfortable and engaging, and to receive resources that help them on their journey.

This response and that assistance actually helps them become better. Better nutrition, more attentive and patient instruction. Etc. It's not just that things are done for them; it's that the feedback loops can improve their own performance.

A person receiving negative feedback tends to feel worse, to be socially uncomfortable and isolated, and the be denied helpful resources and assistance.

The negative feedback loop can result in that person withdrawing more and more. I've been there: Most people do not want to be where they are not welcome. It is one of the worst feelings.

Negative feedback loops tend to spill over into one's physical health, and that unhealthiness furthers the rejection.

It is not just the "big things." People with a popular appearance routinely get bigger servings, more engaged and attentive care. More respect.

It's pervasive. Pay attention. You'll see it all around you, every day, everywhere.

I've been burned a few times by "attractive" people who deliberately used this to their advantage. And I've been slowly figuring out, at an emotional, "feel it" level -- as opposed to intellectual -- why some people outright pre-emptively reject attractive people.

They've learned a life lesson: Interacting with those people too often places them on the losing side. Whether they are being deliberately used by those people, or just because of the comparative way they are treated by surrounding people.
An attentive crew responding quickly to orders is by no means incompatible to what happened here.

The question is, who was in a position to know about the incoming container ship? And who was in a position to act on that knowledge? The helmsman would have promptly responded to an order to take evasive action, I'm sure, and the engineering crew would have very quickly "answered the bell" -- but the order was never given.

In fact, the more there was a central point of focus within the watchteam (in this case the Officer of the Deck, not the Captain), the more likely it is for things like this to happen. If the OOD were to have been mistakenly convinced that the ACX Crystal was not a threat (whether due to its old course or because it was an overtaking vessel) then the OOD alone could have prevented a proper watchteam response. We've seen similar things with airline disasters, where a pilot loses their situational awareness and the crew failed to speak up in time.

Sadly, I could easily come up with plausible and workable theories of how a Navy watchteam would have this slip through the cracks. They involve complacency, or contact density, or misapplication of the navigation "Rules of the Road", or a mixture of all of those. The hardest part to explain is how a lookout didn't spot the Crystal in the lead-up to the collision -- dark or not, she would have been lit up to some extent by her nav lighting alone, and can't have been overtaking so fast that there wouldn't have been minutes of warning.
Same. About 50% of the time, I am only allowed to enter 1 character in the search, but no more. Sometimes 2. A reboot is the only thing that fixes it for me.

And sometimes it doesn't return search results with apps that I know are installed.
So they didn't consent?
I would say its' a gray area.

HIPAA exceptions in recent years have focused on both identifying information and medical condition together.

For example, the NCIS exception allowing mental health staff to disclose to NCIS if an individual should not be permitted to own a firearm due to their mental state. That's a revelation of both the name and their medical information.

Or the finance exception, that allows payment processors to know the names of patients without requiring them to have a business agreement with the medical agency and subject themselves to HIPAA rules. They have no access to medical records and aren't sufficiently entangled with the medical practices so it's been ruled that they are except.

Or the media exception, in which you can disclose that a patient is in 'stable' or otherwise condition in the ER if a member of the media calls for them by name. In this case, the media already knew the name, and the disclosure is deemed for the public good.

Now.... sharing a name with Google to receive completely public information about a patient? That's not something that's specifically prohibited or denied. It could be argued that Google had a 'need to know' just to deliver the search result, and as others have argued, Google cannot connect an arbitrary name search to a patient's medical history.

If it were to come up, the deciding factor would be was the search for the patient's benefit? Name disclosures have historically been deemed to be minimal if there's no other information attached, and HIPAA provides wide latitude to doctors to use a patient's name in the ordinary course of business or to further treatment goals by contacting people or organizations not directly related to the patient.

> Well, that doesn't seem like a particularly convincing argument to me.

Keep in mind all of my examples are simply that... examples. They're not arguments into themselves.

Collisions can happen anytime a ship is underway, which in the U.S. Navy can happen for months on end. Navy ships can be refueled and resupplied without having to visit port.

So yes, provision has to be made for a CO to sleep at some point. And the Navy accordingly has provisions for this -- provisions which failed here. The CO will be held accountable for maintaining -- or not -- an environment conducive to safe navigation, but in any event the blame will not attach solely to the CO here.

No mention, of course, that the American pilot was actually protecting the terrorists(even Michael Flynn talked about US financing the terrorists in Syria before he got sacked) the SU-22 was targeting but this is a different story here( here we are talking about geeky technical things like why the exceptional missile from an exceptional country was not so successful)
The question is what's cheaper -- adding inverters to every substation, or adding battery packs on the trains? I don't know enough about the prices of things to be able to guess.
A funny thing regarding compression: I realized I'm even accustomed to it (to some degree).

If you listen to classical music (e.g. recordings of "Das deutsche Grammophon"), you'll realize that often, the opposite effect is true: The music has such a high dynamic range that you inevitably have to raise the volume in order to be able to discern the details in a pianissimo-part, which makes the fortissimo-parts deafening. So, there are not only upsides to low compression ;-)

The problem is that there are many people in the world who think that these are problems to be fixed - that human nature is fixable.

With legal teams on hand and millions of dollars at stake, I'd imagine it as dry and unemotional for the most part.

It's probably not.
I haven't used the Ear Peace HDs. The ER-20xs is significantly smaller than the old ER-20, just barely protruding beyond the ear canal. The Ear Peace plugs may be a better option if you're prone to getting whacked in the head. The ER-20xs has an optional neck cord, which I find to be a handy feature. They also work with a range of foam and silicone tips, so are more likely to fit a broad range of ears.

>If anything, they made gigs sound better to me.

As I mentioned in my comment, the sound engineer is almost certainly either wearing ear plugs or half deaf. Either one causes a substantial roll-off of high frequencies, so the engineer is likely to subconsciously compensate by boosting the treble in the mix. If you've got plugs in, you're hearing something much closer to his intended mix. It's a totally perverse situation, but gigs almost always sound better with ear protection.
What happens if the CIC (where the radar operators would sit), lookouts, and bridge team were all properly posted with trained watchstanders, who collectively dropped the ball?

Don't get me wrong, the CO is still "accountable" here, but while the buck may stop with him, there is going to be plenty of room for blame by the time this is all settled out. I don't care who the CO is, there's no excuse for a Navy watchteam on a modern destroyer to miss on oncoming container ship so badly.
Not true. My phone, a Pixel, has USB 3.1 Gen 1. The Galaxy S8 is also USB 3.1 but I'm unable to find which gen it is from five minutes' Googling.
Older ones maybe. The latest generations of flagship phones use USB 3.1 over Type-C.

Never ever publicly tell stuff like that you're suicidal. It's a recipe for disaster. People think they have to send police after you, lock you up and put you under watch - mostly causing more harm and problems than good. They actually think that it is morally okay to violate your freedoms in this situation. Get help - the best way would be to talk to someone face to face. Don't post morbid stuff on the net, you worry everybody crazy.

Yes, when heard about containers, with no details, and I still have yet to read any details, on either containers or how Windows security really works, then just from the word containers I guessed something like what I wrote and you confirmed.

Sure, I have some legacy Windows apps. I'd be glad to log in with Administrator capabilities and, then, put those safe as a stuffed Teddy bear apps on a list of permitted apps.

I'm sure there are a lot of details.

One solution is just to be running a time sharing system with lots of users, each with rigidly delineated capabilities. Then do all Web browsing as just such a user. If the Web browsing lets in ransom ware, fine with me: The damage will be only for that user, and fine with me: I just delete that user.

And there are virtual machine solutions.

IMHO Microsoft should have gotten a good solution long ago.
The Good Judgement Project (for that was its name) is pretty awesome - but if you mechanically connected it to the policy apparatus, I'd expect Mr Goodhart on the next train.

You've proposed a few possible countermeasures (play money, publication of bets, a guess at the equilibrium outcome of a vastly complex HFT game). Each of these might work, but (a) isn't actually what Robin Hanson is proposing (b) hasn't been tested as a defence against highly motivated adversarial actors.

And they would be motivated. The threat model here is "manipulate this market and directly influence policy in your favour". They say "money in politics is like water - it finds all the cracks", and politics at least has humans in the loop. The track record of people betting against it is...not promising.

Captains have to sleep, which is why warships have a watch team who are awake. They failed here, which is unfathomable, but that is not, per se, the CO's fault. The CO has to sleep sometime -- I've stood many watches as the senior-most officer awake on a nuclear submarine while my CO slept, and I had to avoid collisions just as much as I would have had to do if my CO had been awake.

It is true that many COs will try to time their periods of sleep for when the operational tempo is lower as a risk management measure. I can only assume the Fitzgerald's CO had made his risk assessment and figured that it was better to sleep at night than to sleep during the day when the contact density would be even higher.

But for a Navy warship being "approached by other ships" is a fact of life for every hour of every day, you can't always plan your sleep schedule for when you're the only boat on the pond.
That seems like a big commitment unless I'm on a mission.
>As of 2016, only ~70 percent of adults in the US use facebook. Of those 70%, ~25% use it once a week or less.

That leaves a 75% that use it more than once a week. Let's be charitable and make it only a 25% (1/3 of them) that use it multiple times per week or daily and care about their standing there.

That's still a whooping 40-50 million people, in the US alone, and of those lots of people do care and are influenced by their social media status.

It's not like "even some adults" as if it is as rare as butterfly collectors or septagenarias that are into Eminem or something -- it's a huge social phenomenon.

A 50% of the adult population (70% * ~0.75) that use it more than once a week is already impressive. And 'adults' is the wrong metric, since it includes anyone 18-100. So "70% of adults in the US use FB" doesn't reveal the whole picture, as a lot of them are not even in the relevant demographic (e.g. people that were already 50 or so when FB hit the scene in the mid-late 2000s).
You might want to look into Time Sensitive Networking.

This is a real-time standard for ethernet that lets you reserve slots for time sensitive information.

It's primarily being driven by the automotive guys who want to be able to wire up 4 displays, 12 speakers, and a video player for an in-car entertainment system.

Before TSN, it was AVB (audio-video bridging) and, while people networking things like gigantic stadium shows loved it, it didn't have enough volume to be popular.

With automotive behind it, it's going to get cheap and ubiquitous really quickly.
Of course it's no low morality in accepting a date. But I thought we discuss this in context of loose sexual behavior (implied by the article events), not of going on dates or making relationships. As of interact vs screw, it is the matter of accent, not of an objective view. Please don't take my words out of context, nor make a personal diagnosis. Proving [not your] point by attacking the person under his uncertain inferences is not a great way to deliver an argument anyway.

How do you have brief experiences, btw?
Indeed, since I play mostly jazz these days, PA is typically optional, and I'd rather play without PA altogether than play with bad PA, no matter the size of the venue. I figure a string quartet can control their mix just fine, and a jazz quartet should be able to as well. But if there needs to be a PA, then it needs to be managed correctly.

At one venue, we just pretended that the house PA was broken.

This is an issue I've wondered about since the ACA passed. Health care binds workers to companies, and binds older workers tighter than younger. Universal healthcare would probably increase the number of older (than, say, 35) entrepreneurs, and probably increase the overall number of entrepreneurs.

I've heard people say that they couldn't do their start-ups without ACA, too.

I've wondered if some of the opposition to ACA was just about losing an important means of control of employees of big corporations, and big corporations fearing disruption by small startups. I have no evidence of this, just speculation.
No, my point about the garage is that you could easily ban parking in the main pedestrian area (Main Street, the waterfront, and the circle in Annapolis) because most people already park in a garage outside the main pedestrian zone. Many plans for downtown car bans contemplate parking outside the car free zone.
