What if the camera also included gps and time stamp information? That might make it harder to fake, because you would have to be roughly in the location that you were claiming that the footage occurred.

Are the signals from the gps satellites cryptographically signed?

Of course, the cameras would need to have very good physical security so that a person can't either extract the private key from it, or do things like replacing the camera part with something that just feeds in the data you want, and still getting it signed with the key.

I think the design that went into the ORWL pc might be good for this (which would quickly delete the private key if it detected tampering).

In order for one of these to be trusted though, there would have to be a trusted source demonstrating that it was constructed and configured correctly (rather than in a way that would allow faking). Maybe by having the construction and setup be recorded with other cameras of the same type which are already trusted, in a web of trust sort of thing? If one had enough of these cameras I don't think that the bootstrapping of the chain of trust would be too difficult.
I'm not sure whether I agree or disagree, but I'm reminded of how it's said that Fermat's Last Theorem wasn't really the goal (or even that the truth or falsity of FLT doesn't imply anything interesting on its own), but it's an extremely vital problem from a development-of-math perspective.

Ideals were discovered by Dedekind as a solution to an error made by Gabriel Lamé in his claimed proof of Fermat's Last Theorem: he'd overlooked that not all rings have the same properties as Z. In this situation, they were missing "unique factorization", which Kummer "fixed" by hypothesizing the existence of "ideal numbers", which Dedekind later formalized as "ideals". This was a huge step forward for the development of modern algebra.

So you don't know any quantum, but you know the right way to learn it? There is no royal road to physics, there is no way to learn quantum without mathematics, it is a mathematical model of reality. I appreciate that you don't want to learn Linear Algebra and Hilbert Space calculus when you could be learning quantum, but the two are inseparable. Unless you want to ready about spooky action and crazy dead cats and feel like you understand.
As someone else mentioned Road to Reality doesn't have a lot of symbols and equations, but it's a really tough book and you'd be better of with an undergrad QM textbook like Griffiths, Mandl or Dirac.
It was more like a badge of honor. When you looked at the results of an exam, it was a few As, then a bit more Bs, then bit more Cs etc. then a huge number of Fs (fail) and at the very bottom were 1-2 As of those crazy people that took the "all wrong" option. It was the most difficult university of one of EU countries, so those exams weren't trivial and designed to kick most students out. When you got such an "inverse A", it was something to brag about in a pub later as just one correct answer would make you fail the exam...
This is the best. Thank you so much
My initial response is that the software industry doesn't actually do projects of that scale and with that kind of budget very often.

Unless you're working at Google scale, what's the budget for your website project? $100k? $200k? Departmental budget of $3million a year which is 90% salaries and 10% hardware?

Generally speaking, those businesses handling airplanes, submarines, skyscrapers etc are always working at that scale and everyone is prepared for that.
An ad blocker does not modify copyrighted content before delivery. The legal precedent set by when Nintendo tried to sue Game Genie made it pretty clear that you can use tools to modify content you already have in your possession, particularly if those modifications are in memory only and never create a modified copy on disk. Meanwhile, those two links are to something entirely unrelated: an attempt to use the DMCA to remove someone's domain name from a file (which isn't even a copyright issue, and so I have not heard anyone think that was remotely legitimate).
Also they resell IP that is not theirs to give away, sadly. They are working on putting this chip in workstation class hardware, and when they do it will support PCIe, DDR4, USB3, etc. using off the shelf solutions they have licensed and integrated.

IIRC this tends to be borne out--more affluent people are both more likely to have had the kind of structured education that lends itself to high SAT scores and more likely to be able to afford (both in terms of time and money) prep courses.
The effects are a little subtler than "everything decays" however I'm with you that entropy should play a large part in determining our answer to this question since it is seemingly the only law in our universe which prevents the reversibility of any reasonably macroscopic phenomenon (putting an egg shell back together, etc.). It is this distinction from which I believe people learn to differentiate forward v. backward in time. This is only a hypothesis and I invite other perspectives to introduce themselves.
Fake mediums spouting BS have committed to more accurate timeframes for things -- and got them right too.
As pointed out by others in this thread, this is basically the doomsday argument all over again.

It's a deep subject, and I can't pretend I know much about it, but one thing that I'd like to point out is that this kind of reasoning is based of the so-called "self-sampling assumption"[1], and that this concept depends of a choice of reference class.

Even if Richard Gott is right, what he means when he's talking about "humans" going extinct is "people that I can identify myself with" going extinct. In other words : he can only make assessments on the existence of people like him.

Humans are not perfect. Far from it. If anything, the existence of exceptionally smart people like Einstein or Von Neuman prove us that it's possible to imagine a world where everybody is at least as smart as those two. Arguably, that hypothetical future world may very well be outside of Gott's reference class. Such a world could result from the birth of a new Homo species and the end of Sapiens. It could mean that machines would have replaced us. It could mean lots of things, not all of them being necessarily dreadful.

My point being : the doomsday argument is not exactly a prediction about the demise of mankind, but rather one about a dramatic change of it. In a way, it's more apocalyptic in the original sense of the world : not the end of times, but a profound change, a new era or whatever. It's a prediction about the end of our reference class. Or in the Kurzweilian sense, the Singularity.

>Extinction itself isn't really anything to be scared of.

It is to those getting extinct. And whether they're replaced by "something better" or not doesn't matter to that.

Either it's you (your species) that is evolving, or it matters very much.

In a hypothetical scenario, I supposed few people would rush to go voluntarily extinct to save the life of some more evolved (smarter, stronger, more beautiful, etc) alien species out there.

In the context of tests being biased, I'll just note that your idea amounts to (unbiasedly) testing the test designers.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
I imagine quite small, if any were allowed to. Tests like these usually also have a hidden rubric such that the test taker never quite manages to reach the minimum passing grade. It's unlikely anybody with the education of a high-schooler (even a fairly advanced one) would be able to solve very many of these problems in a typical allotment of time for a test. They're not sophisticated problems, in the sense that relatively basic mathematical principles can be used to solve most (or all) of them, but they're really quite complicated problems for a test. I mean "complicated" in the sense that they require a fair bit of rather tedious busy work to arrive at a solution.
I thought they were pretry clear about why churn was bad:

- Many examples are older, and don't compile anymore.

- Code maintenence costs increase for long term "write it and forget it" code.

Maybe one reason is portability? Although the Rust strategy of leveraging LLVM is a good answer, there are situations -- a partial implementation for the sake of analysis, or a clean room implementation for reasons of IP or national security -- where a simple language retains an edge.
Doesn’t “doing premature optimization” just mean “doing optimization before you ought to be,” and thus the phrase is a tautology if provided without any context or explanation?

Obviously any useful advice isn’t just “don’t prematurely optimize,” but rather explains how to recognize premature optimization. I like the advice in this article to write things naturally until you have data that demonstrates that a refactor will improve performance.

Obviously experienced engineers will make deliberate optimizations up front without measuring. A great example is making sure your ORM uses a join instead of making N+1 queries: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_querying.html#ea.... Yes, a small app could probably get away with N+1 queries for a long time, but I wouldn’t consider writing this properly to be a premature optimization.
This totally does happen. The way it works is straightforward: the default set of interview questions is almost untenably hard, but sponsored candidates get abbreviated interviews. Especially in small-to-midsize companies, a significant chunk of hiring is network hiring, so this works for awhile.
"Here's where it gets a bit weirder. Although the equation doesn't include a variable for time (which isn't all that weird. Time is something that can't be measured in terms of itself, in physics it is measured as correlations between an object's location ... over time ... anyway, it's weird). But, it provides a framework for knitting the universe together."

An example of such a test, taken from the Old Testament, is a shibboleth. From the book of Judges:

Jephthah captured the shallow crossings of the Jordan River, and whenever a fugitive from Ephraim tried to go back across, the men of Gilead would challenge him. “Are you a member of the tribe of Ephraim?” they would ask. If the man said, “No, I’m not,” they would tell him to say “Shibboleth.” If he was from Ephraim, he would say “Sibboleth,” because people from Ephraim cannot pronounce the word correctly. Then they would take him and kill him at the shallow crossings of the Jordan. In all, 42,000 Ephraimites were killed at that time.
If they released in 6 weeks then they had already created the product before they talked to the startup.
Similar problems were given to everyone on the oral entrance exams in late 90s. They has nothing to do with ones ethnicity though and were given in case if there was disagreement if contestant deserves "5" or should be given "4". If problem(s) were solved "5" was given. (5 was max at that time)

I think you have to just assume that there is a lot of stupid in any system, so it can't be _all_ of those questions.

The people out there who drive drunk or without insurance aren't doing it with the intent of killing people or not having to pay for their damages: they're doing it because they "didn't think about it".

Hanlon's razor tells us that a similar phenomenon is at play in many "bad interview questions".

How else could it be improved? The alternative would be to work on it in house for a few more years and only then release it to the world. I think it’s much better to let it be used by millions of developers in real apps and learn from that experience.

Part of the problem is that the context for the questions involves things that affluent students are familiar with. As I understand it, that can have a much larger impact than what one might think:

For example, imagine if you (or many HN readers) took a test with questions framed around coding ('I'm going to own this', I'd be thinking), or the same questions in an abstract sense but framed around the details of working in an oil refinery. Now add that you are 16 or 17 years old, from a family where nobody has taken SATs or gone to college before, wondering whether you belong, and under enormous pressure to do well enough to get a scholarship. Your future - whether you live as a college-educated professional or as a career Amazon warehouse picker and Uber driver - depends on it.

A major reason kids like that drop out of college at high rates is that they feel isolated and like they are living in a foreign culture with no other 'ex-pats' around. College is a big step for affluent kids but everyone they know has gone, and the campus and town are built around their culture; few or no college environments are like the poor side of town. The non-affluent kids feel like they don't belong, even that they are imposters (and when they go home, their new experiences make them fit in less and less, and people there question why they are wasting time and money). Now imagine those same kids taking the SAT.
Or, the emergent result of our hiring processes (alienating and near-untenable interviews coupled with fast tracks for sponsored candidates) is that cultural outsiders (women, people of color, older workers) are effectively locked out of higher-status resume-building jobs, and when companies try to fix those processes even a little, engineers are confronted with culturally unfamiliar potential coworkers and experience the human default of hypervigilance in unfamiliar social situations, which creates a false perception that reformed, rationalized hiring processes are "lowering the bar" when in fact the opposite would probably be happening, with a long term net result that nothing changes, and our industry remains structurally biased against people who can't pass for proto-Zuckerbergs.
The core technology was born out of a group in MS research long ago. Moving from research code to production is highly non-trivial. I first heard how time travel debugging was implemented before i knew about Facebook. I suspect SSDs are part of what made this more practical as it used to simply saturate disk IO, even on specialized systems. With a pci express SSD this becomes much more pragmatic then when the initial idea was implemented.

If the overhead doesn’t prevent capturing a trace reproducing the symptom, there is zero reason you cannot find the root cause. But that actually pales in comparison with treating the execution traces as data.
