This is wrong. iMessage uses your Apple ID and is definitely iCloud based. That's how it can tell the state of messages from device to device.
I've had the same thing said to me by my professor about FPGAs. You can't really find much about current EE practices because companies just don't give them away or blog like the software guys do.

Textbooks tend to be very general (also old) and don't focus on the tooling used which is the bulk of the work you have to do.
I don't think the US government deserves 34% of these profits, but some country out there does. Make it point of sale, if you want.

But right now that money isn't taxed at all. That money is what the Irish subsidiary owes Apple US for the license to Apple IP. So the Irish subsidiary isn't paying taxes on it, and Apple isn't paying taxes on it in the US because they are refusing to "bring it home".

That is why Apple is lobbying so hard for some sort of "tax holiday". They want to pay 0, nada tax on those overseas profits.

You seem to be missing this little detail.

One question, i havent found anything about a local first approach in your documents. I assume "eleven" is already matched against the cloud?

Have you tried matching local first? With something like juliusjs maybe?

No real error rates though, as I said, it is easy to imagine none occurred in just 28k operations.

What if the error rate was (in extremis) 1 death in 50k for non assisted and 1 death in 500k for assisted.

The extra cost might be justified on that basis.
Is it aimed at developers from ground 0, or someone with 10+ years of experience?

I've been working with both raw SQL and ORMs for a pretty long time. I'm definitely not at the DBA-tier and really complex queries scare the shit out of me but I haven't ever hit a complete roadblock when it came to modeling and querying data in a reasonably efficient way.

With that said, an ideal book for me would be one that just showed 100+ real world data modeling examples and how to query it in a bunch of real ways. Ideally an expert's thought process would be explained every step of the way. It'd happily pay $100+ for that just because I'm sure using it as a reference guide would save me enough hours in dev time to make it worth it.

I have a curiosity: Some new SQL technologies, such as NuoDB, or MemSQL, chose to implement horizontal scaling by separating the data storage and transaction processing machines. I find this awesome because the data storage can scale independently from the heavy lifting of maintaining transactions and running big queries.

Additional machines can be added or removed from processing queries without having to scale the storage, and not have to worry about the complexities of data sharding, and data rebalancing.

Does anyone have experience with this kind of paradigm? Can PostgreSQL do something similar?
Yes I am using this PostCSS plugin:
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8578-postcss-support

But it's flawed. PostCSS is itself a host for plugins. So a WebStorm PostCSS plugin would need to allow user to select the PostCSS plugins that they are using.

Case in point: I use postcss-simple-vars but the WebStorm plugin assumes I use postcss-custom-properties. And so it fails me.

The relevant bit being "Verifiers SHOULD permit claimants to use 'paste' functionality when entering a memorized secret. This facilitates the use of password managers, which are widely used and in many cases increase the likelihood that users will choose stronger memorized secrets."

But that's a recent change to the NIST guidance. Searching for "Bill Burr NIST" will turn up recent stories about the original author's regret of a lot of the password recommendations from the original publication in 2003 that survived until the update this year.

And my state has just invested millions in a big bank of Tesla batteries to stop us losing power again this summer. Hurray?
I understand that perspective, but to me it seems a failure of history. If we had simply thrown out all of our previous knowledge when we discovered 'lower level' understandings and reformulated them in those terms, we would see no 'special values'. Those values would be 1. And all else would be derived from them, and the things at our scale would look complex and maddening. Temperature measured in Kelvin, velocity measured in ratios off the speed of light, distance based on the planck length, things like that (although I know you're talking more about the fine structure constant and things of that nature, but I think it could be done with them as well).

The question, in my mind at least, is how to show that the quantum understanding leads, on the macro scale, to the emergent phenomena we observe and once thought unitary. That's a great degree of precision and division between entities to arise out of the nonlinear interactions of bunches of 'particles'. And given the scale on which such things emerged (the universal one), clearly a proper system of understanding would make the emergence of things like atoms, molecules, chemistry, astronomy, geologies, planets, solar systems, galaxies, stars, and all those things self-evident. But... save for a few exceptions (more all the time though which is encouraging!) we rarely even look at things en-masse. It's all well and good to know how 2 bodies interact under gravitation. But when your system falls apart with 3, and you really need to be able to toss in a trillion with dozens of other nonlinear relationships... It really ought to be more obvious, I would think, that we're missing something.
Training a Neural Network in Your Browser Using WebAssembly and Rust (Demo)
This study is right that for the same operation manual laparoscopic is currently more efficient than robotic surgery. The issue here is that robotic surgery does not seek to displace manual laparoscopic surgery- it seeks to displace open surgery. Example from the article:

>65 percent of patients with kidney tumors that necessitated the removal of the entire organ underwent an open surgical procedure. About 34 percent had their kidney removed using a laparoscopic procedure, and only the remaining 1.5 percent of cases

That 1.5 percent is growing by reducing the 65 percent open, not the 34 percent laparoscopic. Surgical robots are able to complete cases where laparoscopic is not an option due to the complexity. Additionally, they are able to increase the pool of operable patients. Many patients that are not candidates for open surgery and have a case that is too complex for laparoscopic are able to be successfully operated on roboticly.

Disclaimer: I work in this field, and believe that it is going in the right direction, but do acknowledge that the technology does currently lead to increased cost and time.
Current world production is only 36,000 tonnes per year. Chile alone has 7.5 million tonnes known reserves. So 200 years of current requirements, known, in one country.

Fair point, I had one class called logic design. It was my favorite, although I hated breadboarding 7400 logic.

The class was mainly Boolean algebra with some flip flops thrown in at some point. If I recall correctly that was my sophomore year.

I think sunk cost fallacy can be quoted if someone messes up multiple times but they still don't want to let them go. Then the problem is nonchalance or incompetence.
Ok. But over the long term isn't the hope of the robotic method to make the treatment available to more people, perhaps at hospitals that normally wouldn't offer such things.

Certainly, as the method is being vetted and perfected that too needs to be factored into the evaluation?

Their home delivery option still requires you to go in store, take the item(s) you want off the shelves, pay for it, take it over to the delivery counter and then negotiate with them on delivery availability.

You can't do it online or over the phone, and even in-store they won't tell you availability of slots or reserve you a slot while you go pick up the stuff.

Their customer service in this aspect is dreadful.

It's only marginally better than when they partnered with a local delivery company (Kings, at the Rhodes store) who were even worse - not delivering on the day I'd paid (extra) for, and then having the nerve to try and charge me for storage when I said they'd have to deliver it the next weekend.
Yes, I thought that part of the article was kind of funny: just because we admit an external reality that is supposed to imply there is no internal reality?

Here's the one other part where he references subjectivity/qualia:

> In this example, the frog itself must consist of a thick bundle of pasta whose highly complex structure corresponds to particles that store and process information in a way that gives rise to the familiar sensation of self-awareness.

This is too big an big assumption to make: processing something gives rise to sensations? Just because the processing is mathematically describable, is the sensation also? What would the mathematical description of the experience of a fever chill look like? This is the typical omission made by the many people who have formed similar arguments to Tegmark.
Stephen Hawking: We Need a New Space Age
(I'm going by the article text, can't see the video now) I'm curious why you think it's propaganda, or why you think it's bad? I don't think it's aimed to change anyone's mind (what propaganda is) - more for some kids that already think they're different in some way, to show that other people feel that way too and are ok with it. We could discuss what's the age appropriate level for various topics, and things like that. But if it's not relevant, you don't have to watch it. Nobody's going to convince a kid to be gay any more than they can make them straight (and unfortunately, many have tried that with terrible results), so I wouldn't call it propaganda.

If anyone is forced to watch it, that would be terrible but because of the forced part rather than the content. Otherwise, I'm happy this exists if it makes anyone more comfortable with what they feel.

I do not expect error rates to go down because doctors are already incentivized to avoid difficult cases.

Anybody could report some bitcoin as stolen and make a claim on it at any point in time if the private key for that bitcoin ever became public or was cracked.

All you have to do is come across a private key of an old account with no bitcoin in it and then announce to the world that it was your account and it was stolen and the money should be returned to you regardless of who has it now.

Also, any transaction can have multiple inputs and outputs. If your btc is stolen and combined with 10 other accounts and then funneled into 37 completely different accounts, you now have some percentage rightful claim on 37 different accounts. If each of those 37 create transactions get combined with other bitcoin inputs and have more outputs you could end up with some dilute percentage of all bitcoin accounts holding some claimed stolen coins.

> Step 9 · failure. Just log the error to console and call it a day.

There is not a single WebRTC guide that says anything else on the matter of error handling. There is zero guidance on how to handle fail over, what parts are recoverable, how to sequence multiple users joining a session at the same time, what to do if the signal process hangs--basically anything other the default one-to-one successful scenario. All we ever get is the same rehashing of the signalling process, for the last 5 years now. It's ridiculously bad.

I think once you understand the handshake, it make a lot of sense. But the success case is just one. And we don't need 20 guides on it with 0 on any error cases.

I've probably read 90% of the available literature, including several full length books. They pad their length with code listings, like people copy code out of books anymore. You are on your own if you are trying to develop a good app using WebRTC.

IIUC the fuse is an electrically triggered explosive device. Badass, huh?

What's going on is that the current drawn while flooring a ludicrous vehicle is a largish fraction of the current that should cause an instantaneous fuse blow. A fuse that melts at a given temperature and heats up as I^2 R wasn't going to cut it. In the electrical distribution industry, you'd get a fancy circuit breaker with an electrical trip device and call it a day. This has two issues for Tesla. First, your average electrical trip device uses a current transformer, and those don't work for DC. Second, DC current is considerably harder to interrupt than AC, and the current the fuse needs to carry is in the kA range (I have no idea what the short circuit current is), so a circuit breaker would be rather large. Hence a fuse, with a little explosive inside, with an active circuit, presumably using a Hall effect sensor, the voltage drop across the fuse, or maybe just a reed switch.

(Hmm. It's nice when fuses and such don't need external power. I wonder if there's sufficient voltage drop across the fuse during a fault to power the circuit that blows the fuse? I bet there is. It could even be a very simple circuit like a Zener diode in series with a resistive heater that sets off the explosive.)
The answer to "are the patients doing better?" is no. "Is the doctors efficiency outside the surgery more?" is what the parent seems to be asking. There might be confounding variables like the doctors experience level coming into play. Are less experienced doctors more likely to use robotic surgery and still produce results that a more experienced doctor does?

Also, robots might get faster one we better understand them and that can be applied to all robots. Each humans will have to be trained individually and knowledge transfer might not be the same i.e. each human doctor starts as amateur vs robots.

I'm just playing devils advocate here.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I feel like LaTeX is not an efficient way to create a resume, unless you are very skilled with LaTeX macros and can essentially create your own "template", or modify someone else's. If you don't have those skills, you end up with a very bland, "stock LaTeX document"-looking resume, of which half the LaTeX resumes I see people share look like.

I once tried to redo my resume in LaTeX, and after finding a decent-looking template, spent a lot of time fighting it to do simple things that weren't built in, like add my GPA to my school listing. In the Limecv template, what if I don't want the "stats" bars? Better go browse through a 2000-line template that I didn't write to figure out how to remove them.

I ended up actually doing my resume in HTML/CSS, which provided me the flexibility to lay things out exactly how I wanted, which was quite nice. The main difficulty I had was getting a consistent PDF layout, as Chrome's PDF print is pretty much a black box that you have no control over.

No one is saying TSLA is dead, this is the most annoying argument from fan boys, they have a market cap over 50 Billion dollars and ship Cars in only thousands. So, here is the point, a significant part of their valuation is scaling up from thousands to half a million to million in immediate future. That is the real bet.

Scaling up in Auto-industry is not an easy one, and they are having tough time, also not being highlighted is that the base price of $35,000 is not realistic and every thing is said and upgraded the Model 3 averages in high 40s or low 50s. These are important factors esp. when Model 3 is supposed to the Model T of 21st Century.

TSLA currently is in a bad situation and they have to turn around swiftly, because their stock-price assumes they will hit home runs in perpetuity, while they are struggling to get their Second home run.. That is the point of discussion.

They didn't 'steal' this, they transferred it to lenders (and/or short sellers).

Bitfinex (unwisely) specified that during the Bcash-Bitcoin fork, lenders would get Bcash for lent-out Bitcoin. However if Alice lends 1 Bitcoin to Bob before the fork and Bob sells it to Carol then Bitfinex will owe both Alice and Carol one Bcash after the fork, but they will only have one to distribute. So they split it up.

This can get worse when Carol lends it out again, etc, etc, and in the end Zack withdraws the Bitcoin. Unbounded liability and potentially no assets. So them paying out 15% less than expected was a pretty good result.
