You know exactly, what I have been referring to. The system is broken. Honestly, who cares if a young guy purchased a ticket to prove his right regarding a bug? How could he do otherwise? You need to make sure about the backend part of the system, too. Meanwhile, the company that developed this "service" is silent and the financing part is also not public, but we can be sure it was not cheap. The whole BKK e-ticket system is plain simple, a mediocre dev team could create a better one.

I understand that you are experienced in law, I understand what you wrote. Although, I do not think that it was the right thing to do. And maybe because of the reactions and the scandal, it will change in the future.

Would not have happened anything if we had just ignored this. We did the right thing.

I Am Not An Expert.

If I understand correctly, these are a way to automate the execution of the financial part of normal contracts without the need for undue trust between parties. Some simple examples that might help (and I invite correction):

• I and a few investors agree to buy into an enterprise in several installments. A contract can be written to the blockchain that automates these payments. Should a majority of the investors decide to withdraw support, the payments will cease, but while more than 50% wish to continue support, everyone will continue.

• I have an enterprise that I am highly confident will generate profit. I can establish a smart contact that guarantees my investors a minimum ROI at specific intervals; should the balance fail to grow by the agreed margin, all investors will instead be refunded (in full or part) based on a scheme agreed a priori to be fair — say, a function of shares owned for how long.

• I and several other Ethereum miners agree to develop a scheme built on top of Ethereum for, say, a specific method of interoperability between the Ethereum blockchain and traditional futures markets. We have a specific idea for this, but agree we need to ensure that there is momentum in the project, and want those participating to have 'skin in the game'. We build a tontine such that all of us invest a non-trivial amount, and any investor becomes ineligible for payout if their hash power abandons the protocol. If this falls below a certain threshold, remaining investors can vote to continue or divide the pot and abandon the project.

Yes, I think this piece is dangerous in some ways.

The article makes out that there has been controversy about the degree of genetic cause of schizophrenia, citing tiny effects of specific genes - but that misses the point (as the article mentions, it is a polygenic disease) - at least for the last 20-30 years we've thought that there was a roughly 30% influence of our genetic make up on acquiring the disease - the environment has long been known to have an effect on acquiring and also relapsing with the disease.

Also using an anecdote of what someone remembers of their experience being admitted to a psychiatric hospital post delivery is unlikely to be useful. If she really had a psychotic episode, her memory of the event is likely going to be very patchy, and a lack of insight is a common feature of the disease. She probably received some sort of anti-psychotic as an emergency measure - I somehow doubt she smiled and agreed with the doctors to get discharged. Post-natal psychotic episodes are seen as some of the most aggressive / dangerous forms of psychosis.

The article makes some good points that psychiatrists may find they have less and less time to spend with patients, and that medication is seen as the answer to too often.

The reason I say the article is dangerous is psychotherapy and anthropology are not sciences. I think they can be used as ideas to test, but the efficacy of anti-psychotics has been proven in trials. Not effectively treating a psychotic episode can easily result in death, and anyone experiencing psychotic symptoms do need to seek proper medical help. Just hearing voices on its own is not enough to make a diagnosis of schizophrenia, but they would at least check for the other symptoms.

Anyway, maybe a psychiatrist can chime in here, it's been a while since I've been involved with anything psychiatry-related.
In Philadelphia, I passed under the Columbia Bridge by foot, and nearly fell over when I looked up. An entire section of the bridge has spalled and a huge gap of reinforcing steel rods is rusted and exposed. This bridge will collapse. I found no evidence that there is any plan to reinforce or replace it. Luckily it "only" carries CSX freight. Anyone passing under it should be extremely wary.

U.S. venture capital's digital coin quandary: cash-rich startups
My guess would be:

- BKK is the client of T-Systems. They have a contract for the development and maintenance of this system which might contain clauses about liability or indemnification in cases of hacking, security bugs, negligency, etc.

- This guy reported it to BKK who obviously don't have any technical knowledge

- BKK (the client) forwards the email to T-Systems (the contractor): "What's this about? Looks like hacking or something."

- Now T-Systems has two options: 1. Blame it on the guy, or 2. Take the blame for overpromising and screwing it up, possibly taking a financial loss of an unkown amount (depending on the contract and how widespread exploitation was)
Hi, that's an interesting study.

Cows are known to have antibodies with unique conformations, probably since their metabolism involves bacterias much more than other mammals, such as ourselves.
Antibodies are molecules that are generated by B-Cells and upon exposure to an invader, some antibodies go through rapid evolution.

The unique conformation of a cow antibody allows it to bind to deep pockets and places that human antibodies may have some difficulties reaching.
With that said, while this research is interesting, the implications for human therapeutics are mostly negligible.

Cow's antibody cannot be transferred safely to humans since they will elicit an immune reaction and will probably be considered a foreign invader.
Also, there's no shortage in human origin broadly neutralizing antibodies for HIV. Those are still not considered the best line of defence.
Its a pity because UWP is really a pleasure to work with. Its even faster to develop uwp apps than websites...

The thing people liked most about wp was it had a different UI. There were people that didn't like it, sure, but WPs main cheering point was the original UI. That was absolutely not the problem

I'm assuming you mean a malicious device can force a deauth on another client (or more usually, all other clients) and then capture the packets as they reconnect. If so, is there a way to detect this? Is there any way to protect against this? I'm assuming client isolation makes it more difficult.
In this case it's the Category Theorists confusing things. Co- and contravariance of vectors with respect to their scale was introduced in the 1850s by Sylvester, Category Theory was formulated roughly 90 years later.
My gut feeling is that women prefer jobs where one must communicate more. Many tech professionals are required to spend their workdays lonely in front of the computer. This is a very unattractive concept to most women. This may be a biased view, yes, but that's just how they perceive it.
It's not about quality. They're comparable for all intent and purposes. The key here is quantity. They make A LOT of them and it will take other battery manufacturers a lot of capital and time to expand production. Tesla has secured itself all the batteries that they need and channels to sell surplus and old ones (energy projects, home batteries, etc...).

It's just the old commie era thinking. Some people think of the government as a hostile entity.

> So you can't use Google Maps in CarPlay

Of course you can use Google Maps in Carplay. Just make sure you have location and background refresh enabled for the app and open it. It's that simple.
FWIW, I've talked to a lot of people in logistics companies, and they seem to universally use HERE Map data - apparently because it's gradient information is significantly better than any of the alternatives, which can be used to optimise fuel consumption if you know the load weights and enough about the trucks to use that to provide hints to drivers about the optimal speeds to climb every hill. For long haul trucking that makes for significant fuel/money savings. (And here in Australia, pretty much everywhere that counts is at least 1000km away from everywhere else - and almost all freight moves on trucks.)
I've been thinking about this a lot lately. How is it that so many people work so hard and are still struggling to pay rent? This is definitely one of the factors I have come to. While I certainly wouldn't make the same arguments as the article, I feel like so many people devote so much time to work that doesn't really improve people's quality of life.

The amount of time and energy spent on advertising, clickbait garbage, video games, sports (specifically broadcasting, discussing, writing, etc.), drugs, gambling, cosmetics, television, and other pointless time wasting technologies is truly staggering. Sure, people enjoy many of the things I've listed, but we have certainly reached the point of diminishing returns on investment in these things. The sheer amount of infrastructure these things have created to essentially take money away from people while providing nearly no social benefit is mind boggling. People can enjoy baseball or football without billion dollar industries being built around them and the same is true with video games or television/theater/movies (just think what could be done with the average budget of a blockbuster film).

How do you cope with (if using Chrome) Chrome downloading a new copy everytime you save tiddlywiki?
Sure you can, but not in a thin easy to manufacture package while also using mechanically acceptable materials that are also light.

Waterproof is not the same as pressure proof. Typically the rating is set by the seals used. If hard seals were used or single piece ultrasonic welded cases, the device would really be waterproof. Soft seals will start leaking water because the seal material compresses.

Submarines are waterproof unless damaged. They have a crush depth though.
It's understandable though that Apple might prefer customers not to use Google services as they are direct competitors. But car manufacturers do not compete on the "digital maps" market (nor are they direct competitors to Apple or Google... yet), so I really don't get why they'd prefer to reinvent the wheel. Independance is one thing, but as a customer, as you said, I want the best experience for me, not the manufacturer.
This is Hungary we're talking about, more likely it was 24k or less.
Tesla has advantages but they're not making cars with broad appeal outside technocrats. The performance is great, but it's not everything. They're pretty ugly, the interiors are naff and the dashboard + software is distracting in the worst way. I don't drive often, but when I do, it's for covering long distances across Europe and I cannot imagine wanting to be in a Tesla compared to my 11-year-old Audi. The major automobile companies are starting to understand their own strengths and more competition here should help everyone raise their game.

Their argument that birds make maneuvers 3-4x more aggressive than needed for level flight, and therefore level flight may be within the reach of man, is an intriguing one. You could make parallel arguments about AI today, for example that driving a car requires only 1/3 - 1/4 of a brainpower.
I lived in China for many years. Honestly, the government is very clever about how they censor. They don't do things so obviously and they allow a little bit of criticism. there is no hard and fast law as to how they censor. While I lived their they were constantly hopping between VPNs. Some of their censorship is political, some is a also protectionist. Had China not blocked google, Baidu would probably have been dead by now.

To start with this article is published in English. They know that 99% of their population will not be able to read it so its no big deal. I have seen articles in Shanghai daily which give minor criticism to the government. But overall they always try to project a good sentiment about the country. Furthermore often what is published in English print written by Chinese is not the same as what is written in Chinese print. Language is ultimately their greatest tool for censorship.

Also, 90% of the population remains unaffected by their blockages since they can't understand what the rest of the internet is saying. If you were to try to access youku (Chinese website akin to youtube) within china you would find that the streaming speeds put youtube to shame. So for the average person why would they be interested in youtube?

As long as the government provides people with basic infrastructure and safety people are willing to put up with some amount of censorship.
Have you tried it? I have and Google Maps doesn't actually show up on the car stereo's screen, only the phone's. But putting the app on the stereo's screen is the whole point of CarPlay.

"Democratically elected government" does not imply "democracy is not in bad shape".
I agree this is likely. Windows 10 is very successful, thanks to answering what people hated about 8, huge marketing effort, and the surface hardware. UWP will continue to grow because it is the way to build apps on win10, xbox and hololens.

A surface phone would leverage the surface brand, retain compatibility from wp10 (and wp8/8.1 despite what some seem to believe), and be able to run a full Desktop OS via continuum, the killer feature that never killed.

Windows 10 S is a clear attempt to push UWP going forward. I think this is with a view to future arm devices. It really seems like winRT again from the other direction. Right now you can upgrade 10S to run full Desktop apps but on future devices (ARM) who knows?

There's also talk of x86 emulation on ARM now that Intel has given up on mobile.
The Gothic Origins of the Contemporary Crime Thriller
I'm not exactly sure what is meant by business. Commercial successful?

Anyway, here are some projects which I can recommend by its source code:

* OpenBSD. Also the other BSDs. Plan9. And the BSD tools. Linux is a bit bloated but maybe it has to be. I don't recommend the GNU tools.

* LLVM/Clang.

* WebKit. Also Chrome. Firefox not so much, although maybe it improved.

* Quake 1-3, as well as other earlier id games. Really elegant and clean. Also not that big in total. Doom 3 has become much bigger in comparison but again maybe it has to be.

* CPython. Anyway interesting also for educational purpose.

* TensorFlow. Very much not Theano.

I really enjoy reading the source code of most projects which I used at some point. Some code is nicer, some not so nice, mostly judged by how easy it is to understand and how elegant it seems to be. In any case it really is rewarding to look at it as you will gain a much better understanding of the software and often you will also learn something new.

I see I admit I was naive when I thought we do not play with services that are used by hundreds of thousands of people in the capital. But yeah the same shit happened here, too. We have to pay back part of the EU money we received for Subway 4 (Négyes metró) due to corruption investigated by EU.
I came here to copy and paste the exact same quote. It makes me feel better when I dream up AI algorithms that I don't even know are possible or not given my limited vocabulary yet know I can go forward with any of them and learn what I don't know. We learn what we don't know, experts in fields, the specialists, rarely lead big creations. It takes someone with just enough knowledge of the various facets of their business to bring a dream / innovation to life by finding those who specialize in those facets to help build that dream.

> Tesla also cannot collect any data from cars driving in EU, but they gather enough data in US.

I'm a relatively recent driver (I've only gotten my license 3 years ago), but even so, from what I've read and what I've seen with my own eyes driving cross-border around several European countries I can tell you that there definitely is a "cultural" difference in driving between different areas of the globe.

More exactly, a driver in Switzerland in Germany will react and act differently on the road compared to a driver from Romania, and a driver from a smaller city will certainly drive differently compared to a driver from a big, congested city (I noticed this phenomena with my own eyes a couple of weeks ago when I went to a quieter part of my country and I didn't understand why most of the incoming drivers weren't "negotiating" more when the roads were getting narrower, like it happens in the big city where I currently live, they were just sitting in front of my car not making any maneuver, waiting for I don't know what).

Taking all this into consideration, I'm pretty sure that the differences in driving styles between Europe and the USA are big enough that Tesla's data collected in the States will be of not that much use when applied to European driving styles. Also, see this recent thread on /r/cars of car-obsessed redditors discussing about why German-like autobahns could never work in the States: https://www.reddit.com/r/cars/comments/6p30xd/would_an_ameri....
First video of Elon I saw was him saying that. He said that if Tesla fail because others do it better as a result, then that's still worth while.
But should that continue to be the case? Poverty is not a plus in any society. We all know the problems poverty brings with it. The new economy should not add to the problem. It should help solve it. We'll never get past the multi-level economy. There will always be the people at the top and the people at the bottom. We mostly feel that those that work hard to get ahead should not be treated at the level as someone that has not. We project laziness on the poor but that's not necessarily the case. So, if you have the motivation to work should poverty be your reward? I say no.
That is an excellent question.

If you've ever driven Berlin inner city during rush our with cyclists driving on the road, vans parking on regular traffic lane to unload (no joke), people jaywalking, etc. you'll probably find it hard to believe that any autonomous driving system should handle that in the near future.
