I had kind of always assumed that the X was a special edition phone anyway, and it was going to percolate into the other models eventually anyway. And it's always good practice to take these "analyst" reports with a (massive) grain of salt.
That pre-supposes that CarPlay's call center will have higher availability than 911's, otherwise, you not only moved the problem, you made it worse.

I don't know how to handicap the wager that CarPlay's center is better than 911's, but I tend to doubt it.

you know, there might be MORE THAN ONE user

I don't include pleasure in my list of objective positive things.

"What I enjoy and what you enjoy are probably different sets." is relevant insofar as pleasure is subjective, which is the opposite of objective.

When I wrote the original comment, I was not specific enough too include objective, which I should have.

If it's a small application or prototype that's a front-end over a Python script you already made, Flask could provide a quick web interface for it.

I view Flask as interesting from an architectural standpoint only. It helped me understand Python better. I liked its test suites, use of string imports, and code quality.

When I wanted to get work done, Django did everything. It had a great ORM system, form handling, views, and a template engine.

I can't think of any benefits Jinja2 (Flask's template library) has over Django templates. Maybe Jinja2 performs a bit faster.

SQLAlchemy, while it's awesome (and I do use it a la carte), isn't much better than Django's ORM in the big scheme of things. In fact, the use of the QuerySet object across Django and its third party package ecosystem makes playing with your data a lot easier.

I never had the dream of "microservices" pan out. Most applications I make end up being monolithic more or less, heh. Any non-trivial application I've dealt with outgrown Flask quickly. In fact, they outgrow Django. In a large application, I maintain a lot of code that does't touch the web framework at all.
I was going by the original Hyperloop concept as opposed to vactrains. It can sometimes be hard to tell if someone means "Elon Musk's 21st century idea" or "yet another retread of a 19th century proposal" when Hyperloop is mentioned, but I tend to err on the side of the former, since most of those adherents are extremely adamant that the differences means it's better.

You're right in that vactrains are essentially no different than HSR, and that's basically because vactrains are just ultra-HSR. There is some issue about using maglev propulsion versus regular electric locomotive, but that's mostly about being able to share infrastructure in inner-city portions.

So what differentiates the solvers then? Is it in how they apply the propagators? I'm interested because I naively wrote the exact loop you just posted, trying to solve a very hard problem. I spent ages trying different heuristics, but I knew I was floundering. Then I discovered Z3, which solves the problem in a tiny fraction of the time. It seems like pure magic, and I'm keen to understand how it works.

Multiplying by 0 is still 0.
Sure, but why would you do that? If you’re running Django, set up your ec2 instance, and run Django. If you’re running lambda, don’t spin up an entire framework in it to run for individual requests. That basically defeats the purpose. You’re not running a tiny little function, as you said. Your running an entire web framework that’s running one tiny function. Instead of doing that, write an actual simple function that does the one thing it needs to do. It will take 200-300 ms to spin up and run the first time, as well as on requests when it scales up, but otherwise will run in 2ms. Keep it really simple and stateless. If some part of that doesn’t work for your use case, then don’t use lambda.

It was not meant to run an entire framework in. If you’re reaching for an entire framework to run a simple function in a lambda, I’d bail on one or the other. Don’t use a framework, or don’t use lambda.

That's genuinely amazing!

I honestly didn't think it would be possible when I sold my Mazda a few years ago, and I'm so happy they were able to get it working.

And I'm with you, I don't believe that AA or carplay is coming any time soon, since they were saying that it was "coming soon" when I sold the thing.

planes are the safest form of transport per passenger mile there is.

also if a plane has a failure then unless it is something catastrophic, then for most of the journey you have the whole of the sky to utilise to try and correct / compensate.

if hyperloop has a failure then you have a few inches of clearance between you travelling at the speed of a bullet, and a metal tube to correct / compensate.
It is more or less true. Xeon Phi is being replaced by regular high core count Xeons with HBM MCM on one end, and a traditional GPU on the other. While the brand name lives on, it's not at all a continuation of the product line.
His last paragraph shows how strongly app prices are anchored to $0.99. He describes how he used the app for tens or hundreds of hours and saw life-changing benefits. The training seemed to take 10 years off his eyes, maybe enough to delay reading glasses for years.

Then he writes:

> As apps go, GlassesOff is not cheap. I paid $24.99 for three months of use — long enough to get me through the initial program. Upon completion, I was invited to pay another $59.99 per year for maintenance training.
Isn't that a logical move? Allow a single department to both gather and act on the information, rather than disparate departments that have to try to work together?
You seem to think that exploit devs should work for free, why is that?
You’re spot on. It’s really not good for any scenario where an occasional random long response time is a deal breaker. It gets particularly crappy when you have lambdas dependent on other lambdas. That being said, if an occasional long request is ok, it’s pretty great. It just depends on what you’re doing with it.
well, that is true, but

This doesn't achieve the density of subways, but it isn't meant to. In the cases of low-density areas, it solves the last-mile problem by bringing the vehicle with the person on the sled. In the cases where it's high-density to high-density, the sleds can function as subway cars.

The question in my mind is more of whether the perceived benefits from the improvements that Elon is planning in the process can be realized, and if they'll be enough.

There's potential issues with earthquakes and terrorism, both of which are less likely to affect planes, since they travel 10k from the ground. (Terrorism still obviously affects airplanes, but with Hyperloop you not only have to secure the stations, but the whole track too).

> What is the ratio of empty space between trains on a subway? I guess you conveniently forgot that because you were swept away by righteous moralization

What's the ratio of empty space between cars on a highway? Doing some math (2000 car/hr * 4.8m/car / 100 km/h), it comes out to empty space taking up about 90% of a highway at (throughput) capacity. Running the same numbers on NYC subway trains, a track at capacity would be about 85% empty.

So subways on average, use more of their space than highways do.

I don't think you're right about car technology scaling, but let's suppose you're right. Why it would follow from cars being infeasible for seven billion people that the citizens of a rich first-world country should have their car use discouraged?

Radical egalitarianism is an intensely political position, and city planners shouldn't be pushing it on the population at large by artificially discouraging certain modes of transportation. They should focus on the preferences of the populations they actually serve, not on some Utopian ideal.
I prefer solitude. Give me a compartment on that train and I'll reconsider my preference for automobile transportation.

If you want to play the blame game, US is more to blame because that's where the money comes from. US could stop that by legalizing drugs and therefore cutting of source of cartel's income.

Columbia's sin is that it's poor and there's hardly anything they can do about it.

If you think that US is morally superior to "weak, corrupt" Columbia, consider this: during prohibition "Al Capone bought legal immunity by administering bribes to police and politicians. He practically paid off every law enforcement agent and politician in the districts in which he operated his illegal businesses." (source: http://www.umich.edu/~eng217/student_projects/nkazmers/organ...).

There's no escaping economics.

If your opponent (be it Al Capone or Pablo Escobar) can spend hundreds of millions of dollars on bribes, he will beat you unless you have billions to spend on counter measures.

And if you think that "it was then, it wouldn't happen in US today", consider Citizens United or net neutrality repeal, paid for with legal bribes by large corporations against the wishes of majority of citizens.

Comcast doesn't do anything illegal so they don't have to hide their activities the way drug lords do but the underlying mechanic is the same: they have millions to spend and they figured out a way to spend it to buy legislation that is good for them from "weak and corrupt" US Government.

To reiterate: the issue is not moral failing of Columbia or Mexico but a simple fact that rich and powerful always find a way to corrupt the system.

The bigger the imbalance of power, the bigger the corruption. In extreme cases you get extremely rich actors (drug cartels) operating in a relatively poor countries.

We should be thankful that US is a rich country so it can win at least against violent criminals but let's not kid ourselves: US is plenty corrupted.

Study: DeepBreath: Deep Learning of Breathing Patterns for Automatic Stress Recognition using Low-Cost Thermal Imaging in Unconstrained Settings

Citation: Youngjun Cho, Nadia Bianchi-Berthouze, Simon J. Julier. arXiv:1708.06026 [cs.HC]

Link: https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.06026

Abstract: We propose DeepBreath, a deep learning model which automatically recognises people's psychological stress level (mental overload) from their breathing patterns. Using a low cost thermal camera, we track a person's breathing patterns as temperature changes around his/her nostril. The paper's technical contribution is threefold. First of all, instead of creating hand-crafted features to capture aspects of the breathing patterns, we transform the uni-dimensional breathing signals into two dimensional respiration variability spectrogram (RVS) sequences. The spectrograms easily capture the complexity of the breathing dynamics. Second, a spatial pattern analysis based on a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is directly applied to the spectrogram sequences without the need of hand-crafting features. Finally, a data augmentation technique, inspired from solutions for over-fitting problems in deep learning, is applied to allow the CNN to learn with a small-scale dataset from short-term measurements (e.g., up to a few hours). The model is trained and tested with data collected from people exposed to two types of cognitive tasks (Stroop Colour Word Test, Mental Computation test) with sessions of different difficulty levels. Using normalised self-report as ground truth, the CNN reaches 84.59% accuracy in discriminating between two levels of stress and 56.52% in discriminating between three levels. In addition, the CNN outperformed powerful shallow learning methods based on a single layer neural network. Finally, the dataset of labelled thermal images will be open to the community.
Also as someone who has the issue themselves, you get better at reading out of focus text just by reading out of focus text. Although I have not tried the technique in the article I'm sceptical it would do much better. There are also limits to how well you can correct blurry images with any software or brain processes.

I personally have no problems with people taking their SOVs into the cities, but you do have to acknowledge that taking up excessive space obligates you to have to pay extra costs for taking up that space. In practice, many people who want to commute via SOV often take great umbrage anytime a city takes steps to make them pay the true cost of that decision.
Both methods work.
