I understand the concern here on HN. However, what do we propose to do? At the end of the day, these are private companies and they can enforce whatever arbitrary guidelines they want within the laws of the countries they operate in. E.g. if you were president Trump, would you do anything about it? Genuinely curious.

> The question is - will this be just a minor blip to Facebook and then normal services will resume after the indignation wears off? Or will it the beginning of the end of the social media dominance of the platform?

I'd bet my house it is the former.

I think on HN we understandably make assumptions about the general population due to the bubble we live in. The reactions to other privacy scandals e.g. wikileaks or Snowden was actually pretty muted. John Oliver did a great piece when he met Snowden for example: literally pointing out that almost everyone he asked on the streets of New York had no idea who he was (https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/4x3pvm/john-olive...). So the idea of a mass exodus from Facebook is extremely unlikely.

If the car cannot predict "there's something in the next lane, could be in mine the next moment, better slow down just a bit", it has absolutely NO BUSINESS AT ALL driving around on public roads. At each and every occasion that I drove in a city, I have needed to take at least one such minor evasive maneuver due to someone suddenly getting into my lane, be it a car, a bike or a pedestrian. This is not even driving 101; if the car is unable to handle that, it is quite literally unfit for the road.

I don't use Chrome much beyond development testing, but with some features - anything with smooth animations in particular - I see way more CPU usage from it than FF.

Just to add another data point, this has also been my experience: Firefox since Quantum often pegs CPU cores at 100% when showing pages with even quite simple animations.

The other big trouble area since Quantum seems to be extensions. After various experiments of my own and various discussions online, it seems clear that the machines I use where there are more extensions involved are much less stable and much more vulnerable to problems generally than those with mostly vanilla Firefox installations.

The Bible of LinkedIn Bollocks
Ahoy from across the sea!

I grew up in Port Lincoln, then moved to Adelaide, and now Launceston. Also, I have family in Queensland.

In my experience it isn’t unusual at all for someone to own a gun, or guns, in Australia.

My father had guns, my sisters family have multiple guns for pig hunting. Half the guys I work with have a veritable smorgasbord of firearms, I’m talking 10+ firearms, for hunting and just general enthusiasm. People I’ve worked with in IT in Adelaide own handguns for target shooting.

I guess it depends who you hang out with. Even some of the “hippies” I’ve known along the way own guns for pest control and dealing with injured livestock.

I guess the average city dweller in Australia probably doesn’t own firearms, but if you spend enough time in the towns and smaller cities... plenty of guns.

We do seem to mange not to shoot each other up very often. Im more worries about being punched in the back of the head.
And yet being protectionist isn’t great either and leads to situations exactly like the one discussed here. Obviously the Venezuelan situation is a bit more complex than described and while being able to support ones self is important, pouring money into losing sectors is wasteful. Some pretty big countries aren’t self sufficient for food and most countries aren’t self sufficient for everything. TLDR get on with your neighbours and as many others as possible.

> that which cannot be studied, because it is only capable of being experienced by one person and thus fails the criteria for reproducibility.

This "argument from Popper" [1] is about as valid as saying that we cannot study snow because every snowflake is unique.

There are reasonable grounds for believing that there is sufficient commonality between individuals' mental processes, and within individual's sequence of mental processes, for them to be scientifically studied. At the very least, there is absolutely no evidence at this point to refute this proposition.

If our minds were really this distinct, we couldn't even talk to one another about them.

[1] Not "Popper's argument", as I am pretty sure he would not have made it.

I think your guess is dead on - it's what I had imagined the scenario was before I saw the video. I see this all the time, and the social contract between car and pedestrian is the car slows. Heck even half the time people do this they don't even look at the car - it's quite crazy - I never do that mostly because I make the assumption that I will be the unlucky shit that was hit when someone decided to bite down on a messy Carls Jr burger.

Regardless of how I do this, it's a pretty accepted contract and definitely still piles the fault on the SDV in my opinion.
The Gaussian mixture representation is quite interesting, so thanks for the link. But it seems like they do not make use of the relative position of words in the text either. They simply maximize the margin of the expected likelihood for words that occur in the same context over those that do not.

However, in most cases it's probably actually better to ignore word order, since that captures more semantic relatedness rather than the syntactic features that influence word order. It also lets you translate between languages that do not necessarily have similar grammar: "Word Translation Without Parallel Data" https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.04087

"entirely her own fault"

Why does the entire Internet feel the need to apportion blame in this case?

There are four entities who could have and should have relatively straightforwardly avoided this death.

1. The woman shouldn't have crossed the street there and then.

2. The safety driver shouldn't have been looking at her phone.

3. Uber's automation should have caused the vehicle to brake much sooner.

4. That street should have been designed much safer. The design of a lit crosswalk on the median encourages people to cross there, so much stronger discouragement is required. Furthermore, a 35mph limit in an area with pedestrians is going to regularly cause pedestrian fatalities. That's a trade-off most people seem willing to make, but if you make that trade-off you have to own it. If the speed limit was 20mph that woman would be alive today.

As far as I can see it, all 4 entities are 100% responsible for the death of the pedestrian.

None of those 4 entities passed the "reasonable person" test with their actions, therefore all 4 are fully responsible.

Sure you can argue all you want on whether one entity's misbehaviour is more egregious than the others. It doesn't matter; all 4 engaged in behaviour that regularly kills people at a rate much higher than acceptable.

So YouTube and Reddit are again saying that they're not okay with potentially illegal conduct on their platform. The only difference is that this time they're being much more direct and specific.
I don't buy this excuse. Backpage was always in a risky legal position without public support, but Alphabet (owner of YouTube) and Advance Publications (owner of Reddit) are well-positioned to fight for freedom of speech if they wanted to. These rules are being rolled out because they want to, not because they're forced to.

The Reddit bans in particular banned a wide swath of behaviors that are completely legal and not in any grey area, such as selling alcohol or trading alcohol. US Section 230 has nothing to do with this.

Do you think it's wrong for a woman to shoot a man who is raping her? Is it wrong for her to practice gun use to prepare for that possible threat? Do you support police use of firearms to neutralize criminal use of firearms?

They don’t particularly like old things, and so a building built in the 1980s would be considered an old house.

As a result new buildings get built all the time and everything is nice and newly renovated everywhere you go, including the subways.

One great example is stepping into the Ginza subway line, which is the first subway line in Tokyo (circa maybe 1920s or 1930s), and comparing it to the dungeons of some older NYC metro stations or London’s tubes.

Interesting point. I was thinking about it in terms of dose, usually phase 1 trials seem to have significantly lower doses, to feel out any issues with safety.

The "sensible gun regulation" isn't, that's the thing. Indeed, the people calling for it are so proud of being so ignorant about guns and gun laws that they often can't even accurately say what class of guns they want banned, they've coined a term - "gunsplaining" - to mock those who point out when they don't know what they're talking about.

Features of the current US pro-gun-control movement include the notion that it's somehow absurd handguns, which are used in the vast majority of US gun homicides, are more tightly restricted than rifles. The idea that the gun used in your deadliest school shooting, the VA Tech massacre, is basically useless and ineffective. The belief that the AR-15 is some kind of super-powerful danger rifle too powerful for anything but murder (it's actually a tad underpowered as hunting rifles go). Also unyielding, full-throated defence of the elected official in charge of the police department which ignored all the warning signs about the Parkland shooter. Pretty much only pro-gun folks seem to be questioning any of this.

To give some idea about the quality of this debate, the founder of gun control group Moms Demand Action literally pointed her followers at a photo of a scary-looking black gun, trying to make it look like some incredibly dangerous killing machine, and demanded they pressure the retailer into not selling it to under-21s https://twitter.com/shannonrwatts/status/969572513154936833 It was actually a .22 LR bolt-action rifle, probably the least effective long rifle in widespread use it you want to kill anyone or anything, that was optimised entirely for competitive target shooting. I can't think of any other country off-hand that considers 18 year olds incapable of buying and owning those. Her follow-up was to accuse the NRA of misogyny for pointing out how stupid and clueless this was, with the help of Media Matters for America.

The campaigns for "sensible gun control" basically just use the term as a talking point that avoids having to actually explain and justify what they're calling for; after all who could be against sensible, common-sense restrictions other than some gun nut whackjob?

On the other hand, if we assume that every pixel is covered by a constant number of triangles and a typical scene doesn't push more triangles than there are pixels, rasterization suddenly looks a lot more like O(pixels) or O(1) per pixel while ray tracing is still O(log triangles) per pixel accounting only for direct rays.

Then again, it's the constant factors that really matter. A couple arithmetic operations plus a single spatially coherent memory fetch (depth test) and a single write to the frame- or g-buffer vs. 10+ fetches for the kd/bvh tree traversal followed by several full ray vs. tri tests (each one taking at least an order of magnitude more arithmetic ops than the sign-based test in rasterization).

I guess when we are not yet able to use Voxel Cone Tracing in AAA games, will the temporal filter or RNN based denoising really be enough to make ray traced GI worth the cost?

When bucket-shop recruiters criticize your resume, remember that they don't know crap about doing the work. They are just salescritters trying to sell you, and they don't know how to fit you into one of the boxes that they've got on a shelf.

As a hiring manager, I've stopped talking to bucketshops entirely. They may have a bunch of names, but they add zero value beyond that, and are certainly not worth the fee.

By all means, list the travel on your resume, list the small projects you've done.

Firefox is doing a good job about analysing extensions startup performance, but I guess they need to do the same thing for page loads and memory usage. Or integrate the extension functionality into core more.

This is strange advice. There's no real drawback from using getter/setter and there are obvious benefits.

And even if you mostly use public properties, there will still be cases where you'll need getter/setter so you'll end up with a messy mix of getter/setter and public properties. Better be consistent and always use getter/setter.
