I hope that means someone could implement 120hz 1080p over HDMI on 2016 models. I have a B6 and that is the most missing feature which 2017 models have. It should be doable since the TV can interpolate to 120hz internally. 2017 models support 120hz 1080p having practically the same panel afaik.

> Facebook and Google are not evil. [...] Everyone's economic incentive is to make more money.

I don't buy the claim that everyone just wants more money above all else and you seem to agree if you're claiming that people can "push back, HARD". We all have the capacity to place ethics above money. Never questioning the impact of your actions--especially when it affects the lives of millions--and simply doing what greed dictates, is indeed a form of malevolence, or "evil"... the 20th century is a testament to that.

Furthermore, if a company's leadership is filled to the brim with these unethical and greedy people, I believe it's acceptable to call the company evil as well.

Tech just needs to stop building tech for tech's sake and start thinking deeply about humans... and holding each other accountable.

I suppose you talk a bit from outsite.

There is no other data set to correlate. Simply all the external context data is not recorded anywhere. Not even in logs. Unless some higher agency is going to hack some network driver to pick up the tcpip source, etc, I don't see how the data could be associated with datetime and location. This is why I was talking about "economically infeasible".

Data scrambling doesn't mean hashing. Sorry, here you are wrong. It's a on-the-fly frequency/timedomain scrambling, means someone has to physically, again, access a server and pick up from the memory the algorithm. And no marketing department, all research here!

The other stuff, I wound't reply, but let me asure you, there is no law circumventing. We are open and if someone can pinpoint of some personal data, there is no issue removing it.
I wonder, shouldn't the vector space ideally be much more than high-dimensional than hundreds? Like many thousands at least. (I mean, our brains likely can hold much more than hundreds of dimensions internally, I'd guess.) It's just that we don't have the computing power yet?

The good news is all modern browsers use a Bloom Filter to quickly skip over elements that wouldn't match the descendant or child selector relationship.

You could probably construct situations with very deep selector relationships and thousands of matching elements where the ancestor walking adds up but the other costs of computing style often end up being more important than the selector matching in many scenarios. Not that you shouldn't aim for simpler selectors of course.

(Usually the problems with expensive selectors come from side effects of dynamic changes to the document. ex. Some selectors will make the browser recompute hundreds of elements when only changing something small because the browser isn't tracking that relationship in a precise way.)

IBM Reveals 400 Blockchain Projects
You appear to be suggesting that multiple levels of police watched the videos, GPS tracking, lidar scene, all recorded by the on-board systems and have deliberately suppressed what really happened. I can believe an Uber employee being paid to cover this up but whatever your views of the police, I don't believe they would suppress something that could so obviously be a major public health issue.

And it's common in police reports to identify the victim and where they're from. The point about the carrier bags and the homelessness is that they've been unable to verify her sitation; they're explaining why. Nothing strange here.

But I guess there's no convincing you without providing you the snuff film of it all happening.

I agree, though from the other side your sort of comment does not acknowledge the fact that a lot of projects do not require that kinda of scale.

Fundamentally they are very different practice of software development and I think what OP talks about are those many cases where there is no scale need, never will be, yet we see this design approach that is suited for the type of projects you talk about.

Right tool for the right job after all...
In the classic days of web dev it was best practice (and still is in my opinion) to separate style (CSS) from functionality (JavaScript). So you had classes for CSS and id's for JS. So if you change the id you don't have to update your CSS. If you have a "singleton" it's better to use the element's name instead of id in the CSS. for example body instead of #body for the same reason (separate from JS). And if you want to have different types of body, add a class to the special body. id's will for example create global JS variables, so if you are styling using #id you will create a bunch of unnecessary global JS variables.

And conversely, those 4 million miles will (presumably) be highly biased to safe/above-standard driving conditions.

As you've basically said, the human stats include all the very worst drivers in the full range of driving conditions, whereas the auto-cars not only have the very best driving conditions, but likely also have the statistical benefit of a likely number of cases where the human actually stepped in and upped the auto-car score even further (since we can't account for the auto-car deaths/fatalities that humans have successfully stepped in and stopped).

Driving rules in the UK have changed, since at least a decade ago, so that there is no 10% margin. Speedometers are required by law to read on or under and they are more reliable now. So if you're going 36mph then you'd be fined.

On top of the speedometer it has the GPS speed to compare as well, I can't see how there is any excuse for being over the limit.

The quoted stats from UK advertising were that at 40mph 80% of pedestrians will die from the crash, at 30mph 20% will die.

Had the car been doing just under the limt e.g. 33mph then there's a much better chance that the woman would have survived.

This is just illogical. While it would be understandable to be skeptical of some specific form of anti-aging procedures or gene modifications, there is no way that science or especially anecdotal science can show why anti-aging measures would not work at all.

In your specific example, even if that was the case that the same mechanism was used in cancer cells and aging - the science would of course find a way to modify that mechanism (not just speed it up or slow it down), or add another extra mechanism which would alleviate the effects of speeding it up.

Body is a biological machine. When we finally understand this machine - we will be able to control such things as aging. Nature has already created animals which live for much longer than humans, which is a clear example that there are no fundamental reasons for why fighting aging could be impossible.

I think that's fair. My point was that Facebook and Google and others don't have to be evil to give rise to this situation, economics just does. That, of course, doesn't mean they aren't.

Furthermore, a company's leadership swearing up and down that they "aren't evil" does mean a hill of beans if they give rise to evil through their own economic actions.
Optimizations are always great :-)

This sounds similar to Maciej Kula's experiments in "Binary Latent Representations for Efficient Ranking: Empirical Assessment", https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.07479.

Maciej shared this [1]: "FWIW I ran similar experiments on recommendation tasks. My initial results were very encouraging (and similar to those reported here), but the effect disappeared entirely after adding regularization to the baseline. I would have more confidence in the results reported here if the authors ran a more principled hyperparameter search, and added regularization to their baseline."

Which then gets you pilots frobbing the autoland selector, not getting the mode right - and now what, if you have zero practice, having scripted yourself out of it? Now you fly the plane into the runway: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asiana_Airlines_Flight_214

There is a (prevalent) happy path where autopilot and autoland can get you the whole illusion "but the plane flies itself" - but the whole system is built around humans catching and handling all and any exceptions.

It'll increase your parse and network transfer time (gzip might help there though) in exchange for reduced selector matching and style computation time. How much that matters probably depends on your content, how big the document is, how much CSS you have and how many classes you're using.

If you're talking about the difference of:

.a { ... }
.b { ... }
.ab { ... }

<div class="a b"></div>
<div class="ab"></div>

It's probably not going to matter a lot. It's two map lookups vs one, and some associated overhead. Probably better to optimize elsewhere. :)

> To do lists, books, apps work for a while, until the novelty wears off and the dopamine return is diminished.

I used to think this meant there was no point in trying out a new productivity system because I knew it'd only be effective for a month or so...

But then I had my "To Do List Epiphany":

It doesn't matter if a to do list or other productivity system only works for a month--because you still got a month's productivity! A system doesn't have to be the be-all and end-all system for-all-time.

Because, let's face it, people aren't going to stop coming up with new productivity systems, so, when one stops working, just move onto another one. It's okay.

(With this in mind I've toyed with the idea of a productivity system generator that randomly combines elements of other approaches to keep it novel, e.g.:

* Ah, so, this new productivity system called "Get It Parked" only allows you to enter half of a to-do item in an app and then the other half in a shared community physical notebook located in a park which gets burned at 9pm each day in a community ceremony. :) )

In my experience, if you like working and you're top 10%, you will do well in a big city. By the time you're 26 to 28, and you have an MBA/JD/MD, I see my friends making $200k+ easy. If you're in this group, then you're household income is $400k+ easy, but the big difference is the connections you're making which can enable you to go up to 7 and 8 figures or more. Really depends what you want to gamble on, but if you're top of the class and want to make money I would definitely try out a major city.

ABS is intended to enable steering by increasing static road friction. It is not intended to decrease stopping distance, and in many cases increases stopping distance by keeping the negative G's away from the hard limit in anticipation of lateral G's due to steering.

Older dumb ABS systems would simply "pump the pedal" for the driver, and would increase stopping distance in almost all conditions, especially single-channel systems. Newer systems determine breaking performance via the conventional ABS sensors and additionally accelerometers. These systems will back off N G's, then increase the G's bisecting the known-locked and known-unlocked condition, trying to find the optimum. These systems _will_ stop the car in the minimum distance possible, but very few cars use it.

So, presumably, quantification would really be a natural way to eliminate those types of subtle differences.

> Wikipedia backs me up but adds that it also decreases stopping distance on dry and slippery surfaces,

Many cars, such as my POS Ford Focus, use a single-channel ABS system. These systems will oscillate all four brakes even if only one is locked. Combined with the rear-wheel drum brakes, the ABS considerably increased stopping distances on dry road.
