That and refusing to up the number of directly connected PCI lanes. The latest chips support 40 lanes but some of them are outboard of the CPU and connected via a controller. High speed cards like a 10 gigabit Mellanox can use 8 PCI lanes all by itself. Throw in some M.2 devices and you're out of directly connected lanes.
The problem is that the victim only has the data from the app. Only Uber has the actual identity of the driver. If Uber is unwilling to cooperate with the police, getting the identity will at least require a court order.

If Uber behaved correctly, they would've reported the case to the police with the identity of the driver. This process is much faster and allows for a quicker police investigation.

Haha, I have looked up some but most people who are into this seem a lot older than me and kind of ugly for most of the time. I understand this may of course differ completely from people to people.

I don't really want any kind of relationship right now though, since I am focusing on work and myself. But I will probably do this later, thanks.

FWIW, for the same reasons above, it's safe to assume nobody lives on Google's campus without Google knowing about it. (And of course, the article mentions Google security checked out the trailer.)

Google's employee perks are heavily built around the idea of keeping their employees on campus as much as possible, an employee living there is almost arguably the penultimate goal.
It is not so much a "chip that powerful" but a "chip that correct". Gaming GPUs are allowed errors because the rendered images are known to be visual output only, whereas an engineering GPU may be used for hard analysis, which cannot afford any rounding or other classes of the acceptable errors gaming GPUs are allowed.
> They aren't providing value for "common people", they are trying to capture the market with massive subsidies. That itself is cause for a huge amount of concern.

Your overall concern is valid, but I'd disagree with them not providing value. They're significantly cheaper, cleaner and more accessible than regular cabs in many places, but I agree this is likely to change once they have a monopoly.

Nope. See my downvoted comment below, begging for somebody to make a podcast player for Android Wear.

Google Play Music is (AFAIK) the only media player that works on AW. However, you're unable to sync podcasts to a watch, only music (even though podcasts via GPM work on the phone). So over the last 1.5 years with 2 AW watches (Moto360 sport, Polar M600) across 2 major Wear releases, I've had to listen to music on my runs, rather than the podcasts I'd have preferred. And I take my phone on walks / hikes to listen to podcasts, when I'd prefer to leave it home.

If the apple watch supported podcasts, I'd probably switch.

I haven’t used OpenOffice much? But it feels much less polished than Office or iWork. I guess there’s Google Docs, but even that’s limited compared to even iWork. Is there anything actually decent that can be used for “Office” stuff on Linux?
This quote sounds childish imho. I know this feeling, I believe every teen feels this way, but I don't lose sleep over my decisions or "what if.." scenarios anymore. The most important truth and lesson learned during my life was "always be in truth with oneself and others": if you are not happy about something - change it or find the root cause and fix it, take responsibilities seriously and avoid lies whenever possible (it is a burden that keeps growing as a snowball and finally crushes you); if you are not happy with your current partner and you see no way to fix it -- have "balls" to say so and move in separate ways.
You see I dispute this. If you just break up with someone and tell them it's just no good (or even all those things you did are too much to take) then that can leave them feeling even worse. Again we are all talking in massive generalities and no two situations are exactly the same - which is why we shouldn't have a totalitarian view on this issue.

I prefer my life richer over easier. Life is brief and once, better to not waste it.
>> No, I get that – my point is, there's not much difference between social pressure to marry someone wealthy because you were not raised to be a breadwinner and thus would starve if you didn't marry up, and social pressure to marry someone in high social standing because you'd be ostracized otherwise.

Sorry there's a f*ck of a lot of difference between choosing a partner that's a breadwinner, and being put through a forced marriage.

>> Social pressures that prevent women from gaining power and thus being forced to marry to get it, are not that different from social pressures that explicitly force women to marry powerful men.

They are significantly different in consequence, IMHO, even if the cause is different only in matter of degree.

>> Applying a band-aid of normalized monogamous marriages to ensure mates for low-status men (as the GP insinuated) addresses the symptom, and ignores the cause.

I don't consider that a band-aid particularly, it seems something a lot of people want out of life, and the question of "status" somewhat orthogonal. I also don't think the parent post advocates any sort of enforcement of this, but just looks at outcomes.

Sears's History Predicts Almost Everything Amazon's Doing
If you take only desktop (which is what I was thinking about), windows is waaaaaaaaaay dominating the game. Chromebook might as well not exist (I haven't seen one, ever. I'm in europe though), so the only contender is Mac. But with all the lock-in and momentum Windows has, sure it might not be a monopoly in the technical sense, but it sure as heck feels like one.
So the theoretical issue there is "why are TfL not applying their regulations to other companies", not "why are TfL applying their regulations to this one". If you have any evidence at all that TfL are licensing other companies which have similar questions around their ability to comply with regulations, I'm reasonably sure you could start a small movement around it.

Why, look at the senior developer's brilliant, perfectly intuitive code, and know everything about the system instantly, of course!

I live this life right now. No documentation, and the senior devs have left, so you just have to figure out what the hell they're thinking as best as you can with the code left behind, sometimes stepping through everything multiple times to see how the data flows through it. Thankfully one of the architects that used to work here knew how to make readable, modular code, so our newer projects aren't too bad to modify, but our legacy systems are awful nests of spaghetti.
> I was expecting some clever application of the nearest-neighbor interpolation. But this seems to involve neural nets and appears far from "simple" to me (I'm not in the image processing field though).

It's not that far off actually, but they are talking about nearest neighbor Markov chains, not interpolation. You probably already know nearest neighbor Markov chains because there are lots of text examples, and a ton of Twitter bots that are generating random text this way. The famous historical example was the usenet post that said "I spent an interesting evening recently with a grain of salt." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_V._Shaney

This paper does use a NN to synthesize an image, which is conceptually pretty simple, even if difficult to implement well. After that they use a nearest neighbor Markov chain to fill in high frequencies. The first paper referenced is also the simplest example: http://graphics.cs.cmu.edu/people/efros/research/EfrosLeung....

That paper fills missing parts of an image using a single example, by using a Markov chain built on the nearest neighboring pixels. That paper is also one of the only image synthesis papers (or perhaps the only paper) that can synthesize readable text from an image of text. That's really cool because the inspiration was text-based Markov chains.

What, using investor money to offer below-cost fares, is not a form of subsidy?
Yeah, that's crap.

Let's translate that philosophy to other "wrong" activities, shall we?

"Spending money is more exciting when it's stolen. Saving is much more meaningful if there is the possibility that someone can steal it."

"Life is more meaningful when someone is actively trying to kill you. Murder is much less exciting because it's wrong."

You see the problem? The notion that actively doing something awful to someone else makes what they have meaningful, and what you are doing exciting is just selfishness and justification.

You don't like monogamy? No one is forcing you into it. Unhappy with your [life | partner | marriage | whatever] and you think the answer is outside your agreed upon monogamous relationship? End it. Divorce is legal. Breaking up without marriage is even easier. There is no tyranny is a relationship you enter into of your own volition.

You have children? Don't be an asshole and hurt their other parent because you have issues. End the relationship before starting another one. Be the person your children can respect.

The other person in the relationship? Don't be that. Because you are being a party to deceit. No, you aren't the one cheating, and that justification only goes so far, but it still shows a base selfishness that informs your character. You ought to expect to be hated, because that weakness and selfishness that makes up your character is the instrument that harms someone else. In the pain that is being caused, you are the weapon that is being used by the person cheating to hurt their partner.

Well if she would have a relationship with your new partner as well, they could spend time together while you do other stuff.
The middle east is extremely (extremely) personal status focused. For boys status is essentially family bound, and has little to do with academic achievement. For girls, an important component of their status, the job they'll later have (if any), is determined by their grades.

That this results in large amounts of effort should not surprise anyone.

The article does point this out but it does not give it the central attention it deserves.
>The ideas were certainly interesting, but had no real provable basis, and just seemed to be the reasoned expression of one author's individual sense of alienation - more like artistic expression than any real solution to the dilemma of civilization or consciousness.

An example to what you're referring to would strengthen your case, though my own experience has been almost exactly opposite; although many works are certainly difficult to read not only for the obscurity of the terms and the form of content used but also for their disturbing and socially challenging content, I don't think they rely on sloppy reasoning; take Marcuse's One-Dimensional Man for example; he speaks in terms the reader can identify with, not using formal logic.

For example, an enlightening passage on freedom under the idea of freedom of enterprise:

>Freedom of enterprise was from the beginning not altogether a blessing. As the liberty to work or to starve, it spelled toil, insecurity, and fear for the vast majority of the population. If the individual were no longer compelled to prove himself on the market, as a free economic subject, the disappearance of this kind of freedom would be one of the greatest achievements of civilization. The technological processes of mechanization and standardization might release individual energy into a yet uncharted realm of freedom beyond necessity. The very structure of human existence would be altered; the individual would be liberated from the work world's imposing upon him alien needs and alien possibilities. The individual would be free to exert autonomy over a life that would be his own. If the productive apparatus could be organized and directed toward the satisfaction of the vital needs, its control might well be cen-tralized; such control would not prevent individual autonomy, but render it possible.

As we can see, he uses no historical examples (at least not yet), he uses no logic or even dielactic. It's philosophy which prompts the reader to think about their own situation and what that freedom means to them.

Ultimately all action begins with the thinking subject; if we restrict ourselves to strictly empirical forms of knowledge then I think we throw out too much as it relates to how people actually live. I would much much much rather than we and academics continue to search and define boundaries, as almost everybody recognises the relevance of critiques delivered by the likes of Debord, Marcuse and Baudrillade on the social side of the Marxian coin.
I think once the smartphone's internal capabilities are exceeded, a "System" (as in put together from multiple parts) DSLR or Mirrorless has more advantages:

- if you need more parts, eg. flash, you go from having one thing in your pocket to carrying a bag anyway

- dedicated UI and buttons for adjustments while shooting without having to look away from your subject or having to change your grip

- much larger sensors means more light to work with during shooting and post-processing
- dedicated glass that you can't quite yet replicate with light-field tech

The smartphone can do many of the things a dedicated camera can, it's just not as good on almost all fronts, and much worse in some aspects. You can under more and more conditions get images that rival DSLRs, but not ALL condititions: If you can control time, light, and subject all at once, a dedicated camera can be matched. If you can't control of only one, grab a dedicated camera.

The tactile UI is one major gripe against smartphone photography for pros and enthusiasts alike, which is why a phone to some extent needs to be smart/automatic, and while today's image sensors straight beat the pants off any predecessing image sensors, physics still poses hard limits on noise and light capture.

Today's image sensors are very close to be able to count individual photons, and making the sensor larger means being able to capture more of them at a time. Tricks are being worked on to extend dynamic range and lower noise (like double exposure HDR), so image quality still increases, but the larger image sensors profit from those developments just as much as the small phone ones. The days of small image sensors being good enough to beat a human eye are still far off.

TL;DR: dedicated tactile UI, physical interfaces, physics, can't quite be beat by all the high-tech we can pack in a smartphone package.
