> At this point, the police attempted to investigate (pepper spray is an offensive weapon in the UK) but, the letter indicated, Uber refused to provide more information unless a formal request via the Data Protection Act was submitted.

If I understood correctly, the victim did not contact the police, but that Uber contacted the police after the second assault, after which the scenario above happened. Also, why is it an issue for the police to make a formal request and why does this reflect negatively, instead of positively, on Uber?

From what I have read, cell phones are really common in Africa. I recently read that in Malawi, one of the poorest countries on the planet, a village may only have one cell phone, but everyone has their own sim card. But, they don't appear to have smart phones.

Poor Americans are not the poorest people on the planet. And talking like they are casually dismisses the existence of billions of people.

I am pretty darn poor for an American. I was homeless until recently. I am well aware that even homeless Americans frequently have cell phones. My latest Tracphone is a smart phone because the Walmart didn't have a dumb phone when I went to get a new phone.

Still, the fact that some Americans are poor and also have a cheap smart phone does not negate the existence of poor Americans who don't have a smart phone, who may not have a phone at all.

The comment I replied to suggested that ALL clothing will someday have this tech. I think that is unlikely. Perhaps "all" (aka most) clothing of fairly well off Americans, but certainly not all clothes on the entire planet.

That may be "pedantic," but the essence of classism, racism, etc is that people glibly say "all people" when they really mean some subset of people. That subset winds up being the only subset that counts. The needs and realities of other people outside that subset are utterly ignored and if you try to bring them into the conversation, you get shouted down, downvoted, etc.
The interesting thing is that you can't actually divide one number by the other, because you don't know when the marriages began. What you actually need is the data "how many marriages in 1980/1981 &c end in divorce"? The information that a bunch of retired baby boomers are divorcing has little to no relevance to 30-somethings getting married right now.

In particular, since fewer people are getting married than used to (the whole point of the article), this is overstating the divorce rate.

i think the idea is that it's not your money, but the companies money. Like, it's not meant for you to spend on a new car or something.

The next line, "You have a fiduciary and ethical/moral duty to spend the money only to improve the prospects of your company." seems to agree with this perspective.
Large ramps kms in length. Similar to how Indians built most of their giant temples where btw worship happens to this day. Its easy to build large things on the backs of slaves but keeping culture alive for thousands of years....not just the monuments, takes much more than engineering thought.
From 1960 to 2011, the percentage of married women who earn more than their husbands went up from 6% to 24%. Among the demographic of people choosing whether or not to get married it's much higher--women in their 20s out earn men their age.

It would be paradoxical if marriage rates were declining because men don't want to commit to supporting a wife and family even as the amount of money women bring into the family unit is increasing. The correlation might even suggest the opposite: women do not see the need to get married because they no longer need men to support them.

(Also, even including the older generations, very little alimony is paid. Americans pay about $10 billion in alimony, almost all by men. But there are about 25 million divorced men in the country, resulting about $33 per month in alimony on average.)

> Filing jointly with a single income does wonders for what you don't have to pay.

Filing singly with a single income does even more assuming you have no dependents. Marrying someone with no income definitely doesn't result in a net increase in free cash flow. Taxes don't offset the cost of supporting an adult.

To be clear, I'm not opposed to marriage nor to the concept of a stay-at-home spouse (of either gender), but it's not a net gain financially if the spouse doesn't work. It's not a guaranteed net gain even in the case where both work.

That’s just half an hour daily, 5 times a week, there is really no excuse, except you are lazy and/or mentally ill, and anyone saying she or he has no time falls in one of those categories. I heard it all, no time, but playing GTA online on the weekend, no time but constantly posting on Instagram or Facebook and browsing aimlessly. Or bingewatching Game Of Thrones. Or some of the comments here which easily take you half an hour to compose. You have to set priorities, commit to that time and stick with it. I don’t say you can’t have some fun in your life, and believe me, working out is fun too, but AFTER you have done your duty of working out, for gods sake, skip even a meal for making time, it will be even healthier for you. Thats your health in the long run and should be the number one priority for you, for your own sake and for the sake of the people around you, think about the trouble and the worries you create for them living a sedentary life, if you don’t care about your own life, then at least be so decent and care about theirs. What helped me a very long time ago was to commmit to 15 minutes daily, no matter what. I used Jerry Seinfelds don’t brake the chain motivation technique, there are dozzen of apps which can help you with that. I had a streak of over two years before i took my first brake, now i work out 2.5 hours daily on average, and still waste a lot of time, and you guys will tell me that you won’t find that time even in one week? Come on! I hope nobody feels adressed by my posting, but i have the feeling there may be one or two guys, you know who you are;)
What's the architecture look like - multiple CNNs, each that can predict one category?

Effectively. That's what a DNN is, ANNs with multiple inference layers each one gives their "highest probability" and then the client/system sets the weight threshold for what is returned.
I'm not seeing the use case here, and that's probably why the marketing is so vague. There just isn't a solid one.

There's really no need for this to control music. AirPods now have touch and voice controls built in. Smart earbuds are a much better solution for audio control than smart clothing that controls dumb earbuds.

And if you're getting turn-by-turn directions you'll probably have your AirPods in as well, and you can just ask Siri for updates. That's so much more flexible -- you can ask for so much more than you could via preprogrammed swipes.

That pretty much just leaves the use case of haptic notifications for people who don't want to wear a watch / wristband. I think if you care about this you'll at least put on a fitbit during your commute. And that works with all clothing.
I hate skeuomorphic UI and wish it would die. The number of users that have ever used a hardware compressor, eq, gate, analog synth etc is much smaller than the number of users that have grown up creating music completely on their PC. I think it makes more sense to focus on the second group.

The plugins I work on tend to look more like software than any piece of hardware. I still use knobs because they are more efficient use of screen real estate. When you click / drag them, left is decrease, right is increase. You don't need to drag around like a physical knob.

The descriptions of applied Randian Objectivism in Honduras are particularly... noteworthy:

"The greatest examples of libertarianism in action are the hundreds of men, women and children standing alongside the roads all over Honduras. The government won’t fix the roads, so these desperate entrepreneurs fill in potholes with shovels of dirt or debris. They then stand next to the filled-in pothole soliciting tips from grateful motorists. That is the wet dream of libertarian private sector innovation."
They actually tried a diversification strategy by discontinuing the big-book and spinning up specialty books. The idea was that they could get a higher $/book by targeting specific interests. This helps in the world of prospecting (i.e. buying names from co-ops like Epsilon). It was also a strategy that would allow them to take advantage of bundling innovations at USPS like co-mailing. Obviously, none of it worked which was more of a function of merchandising than anything else.

As phonon mentioned, Clerky is a service that can help with incorporation.

Another service that is more comprehensive would be Stripe Atlas, which helps with everything from incorporation to setting up a SVB bank account to helping with tax issues and AWS credits. You also get access to the Atlas Forum and network of founders and advisors. https://stripe.com/atlas

If you're not into the service, they still have a nice guide on the process here - https://stripe.com/atlas/guide

EDIT/UPDATE: Worth mentioning that Clerky offers certain legal services beyond incorporation (e.g., hiring/on-boarding and fundraising). Didn't mean to imply that incorporation is their sole product, but rather was speaking w.r.t. the topic of basic startup mechanics mentioned by the parent. https://www.clerky.com/
Honestly, doing something "an hour before" doing something compulsive might be a placebo that trains people to delay doing something destructive. Once that happens, it is much easier to stop doing it completely. I imagine if there was a diet that said "drink a cup of water before eating that cupcake" it might be equally as effective for compulsive eaters.

Most cool! A couple notes.

Anyone maintaining a public-facing codebase should note that "All functions work properly in IE 9 and above - most of them are compatible with IE 8." jQuery has compatibility going back much, much further. Users in third world countries with older computers are better served by jQuery.

jQuery has an enormous test suite, tons of documentation with examples, and unparalleled third-party support.

> The CNN is used to come up with the feature space for the pixels (weights of the CNN), and then each pixel is "copy-pasted" from the training set based on the nearest match.

FWIW, what you just described is known as a "Markov process". It is sampling a known conditional probability distribution.

While some interpolation of the data happens because the output represents a mixture of the training images, this is not "interpolation" at the pixel level, it's picking best matches from a search space of image fragments. (And the pixel neighbors are usually synthesized - the best match depends on previous best matches!) This is distinctly different from the kind of nearest neighbor interpolation you'd do when resizing an image.

Note the phrase "nearest neighbor" in this paper has an overloaded double meaning. It is referring both to pixel neighbors and neighbors in the search space of images. The pixel neighbors provide spatial locality within a single image; this is how & why high frequencies are generated from the training set. Nearest neighbor is also referring to the neighborhood matches in the search space, the K nearest neighbors of a given pixel neighborhood are used to generate the next K pixel outputs in the synthesis phase.
Oh wow. I must keep up with the times then!

I take major issue with this:

> By the way, it is vital to remember that the money you raise IS NOT your money. You have a fiduciary and ethical/moral duty to spend the money only to improve the prospects of your company.

I think this is unethical. YCombinator is taking advantage of a lot of founders by discouraging them from paying themselves a reasonable salary with the money they raise. There is a lot of confusion about this issue, mostly because YCombinator founders are young and naive, and they think because they own most of their company that they should be working for free the entire time, and can spend years trying to make their company work while eating through what little savings they have.

That's not the case. Founders should be doing one of the following:

1) You should pay yourself a reasonable salary with the money you raise.

2) Otherwise you should be diluting the investors over time by the amount you are getting underpaid.

You'd be better off looking for general business advice rather than a "start-up". The "start-ups" à la YC looks to raise money, several rounds, IPO, Exit, spend millions to acquire users, etc...

The difference also starts from the foundation. For startups you are looking for Corp C. For your case you are looking for an LLC.
That's my point: If you're treating syphilis with mercury, it's hard to have sex-positive culture.
