> The mention of militia could be interpreted to mean only members of the militia, clearly under the command of the military, can own guns.

Rhode Island's 1842 constitution starts like this:

> The liberty of the press being essential to the security of freedom in a state, any person may publish his sentiments on any subject, being responsible for the abuse of that liberty . . . .

So according to you, if the 'security of freedom in a state' is threatened, then the government can suspend the freedom of the press?

Or take 1784 New Hampshire constitution:

> In criminal prosecutions, the trial of facts in the vicinity where they happen, is so essential to the security of the life, liberty and estate of the citizen, that no crime or offence ought to be tried in any other county than that in which it is committed . . . .

So according to you, 'if the trial of the facts in the vicinity where they happen is not essential to the security of the life' (again, in wartime or any exogenous circumstances like 9/11 attacks) then this right of citizens to be tried in the county where the crime was committed can be suspended by the govt whenever they deem fit?

Or maybe, this 'justification clause' which was written in many different ways at many different places by the people of that time is actually 'one and the most important justification' for a right and not 'If and only if trial of the facts in the vicinity ...'.

Let me explain another scenario. The first amendment starts with "Congress shall make no law...". Today we clearly understand it to mean 'US Congress', but in the year 2256, People have created a new legislative body called Congress-22 and now they claim that first amendment only restricts Congress's power to restrict speech. On the other hand Congress-22 still has the power to restrict speech and religion.

Same thing goes with 'militia'. It used to mean "pretty much all able-bodied men from age eighteen to forty-five". This does not mean that it ONLY protects the right of 18-45 men to keep and bear arms, but it cover everyone's right to keep and bear arms.

Published vs. real-world LIDAR ranges are radically different. Even if the LIDAR sensor is looking 360deg around the car, the Uber software may only be looking at a small cone in front of the car.

The challenge is: what do you do when something is moving toward the vehicle's path? You could track every object in front of the car, but since people walk toward the road, then stop, you can't just apply full brakes every time something is moving toward the road.

It's really, really hard to get this right: we humans can look at people standing next to a road, and, based on movement and body language, predict whether pedestrians will walk into a road.

And since there will be cases where pedestrians don't look and walk in front of a vehicle going 40mph, autonomous technology will be limited by the physics of stopping a vehicle with full brake applied.

It's impossible to figure out what the Uber vehicle should have, or could have, done autonomously without looking at the code, and all the data.
Teslas are not expensive considering the competition in its own price range.

The reason Tesla started with a luxury car is because they are a new company without the same resources and manufacturing experience as the already established car companies, so anything they built, it would be very expensive anyway.

There is really nothing preventing from the established car manufacturers from selling a cheap electric car, the reason they don't it's simply because their businesses is not geared towards selling non-ICE cars.

Electric cars are much more simpler than normal ICE cars. ICE cars are basically a bunch of controlled tiny explosions and those explosions need to be kept in check so there is a lot of nuances and engineering aspects that can simply be skipped on a electric car.
Look at Gino's East and Giordano's. Now look at Imo's and Cecil Whittaker's. Now look at California Pizza Kitchen.

Now, look at a Chicago Italian beef. Look at Pat's, Geno's, or Ray's in Philly. Look at a New Orleans Po' Boy and an East Coast grinder.

You think there's no regional variety within a country? Are you going to tell a Philly guy his cheesesteak isn't authentic because it's different from what you're used to?

Texas, California, Baja California, the Yucatan, central Mexico, southern Mexico, the northern end of the Gulf coast in Mexico, and north central Mexico are all very different places.

> Everybody has known this about Facebook forever.

This is not even remotely true, especially when it comes to the general population. I'm not trying to slam you here, I was of same mindset too, since at least 2009 (I stopped using API in 2013 and assumed things were clamped down).

I don't want to be a nag on his, e.g. Mustnt assume everyone knows what you know! Rather, I think this is an advantageous mindset to have. Anything you know in your profession, especially when it comes to tech or data, you can assume plenty of people (including future customers) don't have a damn clue.
The "less capable" are a part of society as well. What do you think causes cancer and other fatal diseases? Alcohol, smoking, drug addiction, shitty food, all types of vices that are endemic to people who don't have a place in society. Seriously, lifestyle factors are so key in health.

I mean, there is actually an incredibly utilitarian reason to curb the rate of technological growth as people are given a chance to catch up and adapt to the changing world. This isn't a reversion to the stone age, but more like checking unbridled growth that kills the organism - we have a term for that.

This is a principle that I've often found applicable to Mexican/Mexican-American food: the more impressive the decor, the less impressive the food. The Chicago area has lots of unassuming taquerias that knock the socks off of fancy, nationally-advertised chains.

Realistically speaking, the answer to that question depends on the current makeup of your employees.

If most of your workforce is 50+, you probably don't need more highly experienced people and are probably overpaying for some of the more basic tasks some are doing. It's also not great for continuity if you're set to have large segments of your workforce retiring in a small window of time.

On the other hand, if your workforce skews young and inexperienced, bringing in some people with much more experience is probably going to be a valuable resource for them that'll help everyone perform better, and will help you avoid costly mistakes.
College has two distinct but related functions: education and certification. While related, these things are sometimes in tension.

Most things related to grading support the certification function, not the education function.
Pretty much. When I taught CS, I told people to commit early and commit often.

This has so many advantages even beyond defending against plagiarism charges that it really wasn't hard to drive home.

The big advantages being defense against the inevitable computer crash and the inevitable directory deletion.
Do you find white-hat pentesters distateful, too?
Sorry, but that does not ring true to me.

I used to work on the assembly at a GM truck plant, and one of the amazing things was the range of different units that came down the line.

I find it hard to believe that the major car plants can no longer make assembly lines that produce more than one design on an assembly line.

Also by that logic there should be no Nissan Leaf.

Last but not least, if BMW waits too long they will lose customers not only to Tesla but also Porsche and Jaguar as well.
> One thing I think IBM has failed to grasp about POWER architecture is how to get people to use it.

I don't think IBM cares about people using it, especially people who can't afford $1000 dollars. They are only interested in high margin corp/gov pork barrel deals and need something that they can plausibly claim is superior in order to charge 10X for it.

Come on Facebook, you should be hiding your internal identifiers from third parties. Ideally each consumer of Facebook data should have its own mapping of identifiers to make it more difficult to combine datasets later on.

You're back to making the moral argument that we should subsidize older workers who are generally relatively wealthy compared to the rest of the labor force. There's good arguments to be made there. But you can't come in and make economic arguments about how it's better for the employer because you don't know that.
Optional homework almost definitely won't get done. Making it count ensures that students would actually do it, which is useful to instructors (what do they need to focus on in class? Is the class understanding the lectures?).

> there is an observable universe

wait, this is not self-evident?

> it operates under decipherable rules

we already know this is not proven. taste, for example, has no discernible rules. therefore taste is irrational (for now).

Rational: Agreeable to reason and based on objective empirical evidence and observation. Things outside the reach of this: The irrational. Subjective experience. Etc.

The key here is, you can believe whatever you want, but to act against someone else, I think you need a rational basis. Rationality, where it exists, should be given a wide berth.
Given their repeated failure to reach their target on production numbers for the Model 3, their lack of experience in mass production really seems to be the problem. The question then becomes whether Tesla can figure this out before traditional car companies catch up to them in terms of technology. If they do manage to capture the EV mass market with the Model 3, the others will likely be in trouble.

There are rumors of an all-electric 3 series. I assume the i3 drivetrain would not have been feasible inside a 3 series and scaling it up would have made the 3 far too expensive to be practical.

The i3 is a BMW Prius essentially. Think of it like a modern Isetta. In that context I think it actually looks very nice. At least it doesn't have love handles.

I love both the i3 and i8 and would love to own both.

I imagine one factor in not putting i3 guts in a 3 series is that the i3 is about 2/3 the size and weight of an F30.

that seems like an unworkable definition. If I submit John Milton's Paradise Lost as my own work on an application to grad school, it certainly wouldn't be an "expense" to the long dead author.

I think people are fully aware, but they're claiming that sites do not have unique content or provide other value that would be enough to justify display of the ads, or they think that all sites should always find non-ad based revenue streams yet provide open access.

Personally, I make a judgement call. On the Atlantic I got the ad block message recently and decided to switch it off as I find the content unique and well-written. They're not a news-aggregator or a spammer, their ads aren't that intrusive... I think it's a fair-call.
What ad blocker are you using? I didn't get redirected or anything with uBlock Origin on FF.
Sorry, I don't understand your point. Is there anything in my comment that was incorrect?
I stand corrected. I used Ruby for 6 years, up to 2015. I wasn't using Python during those years, but I thought I had heard or read about the 8x speed difference in favor of Python.

For sure, Ruby was slow for what we were doing... processing millions of rows of data was so slow that it caused me to decide to try Go (and the same Go program was hundreds of times faster). But I didn't try Python then.

this is not the problem i described.

The problem is introducing a new model into an assembly line is a lot of work, and something which is not worth the effort if you are only going to produce a small amount of cars.
Google might know a lot about you but they have never exposed that to third party apps. Facebook's data is much more personal. With a user's "Like" stream it's possible to build a surprisingly accurate personality profile.

The worst Android offenders, as always, are the big ad libraries that are installed across a lot of apps. They're able to build a rough personality profile based on the types of apps someone has installed. So they can generally say if a user is into categories like music or politics or comedy. But that problem exists on iOS and the web.

Android has also tightened up its permission model considerably over the last several years.
I guess I got lost on my initial pass through the UI.

I deleted my toy repo and did it over again; it seems to be working now. Latency seems to be in the 20-30 second range for incremental pushes, which is pretty good.

Is there a way to do this for existing repos? Or do we have to delete and re-create our production repo to do this?

People have been modding old overhead projectors with LCD screens for as long as universities have been throwing both away (so since early 2000s). Here is a recent example[0]. For some reason nobody seems to realise that you can just place a smarphone underneath it and use that. I mean, the principle is the same as this video[1] :P

I just got myself an abandoned one - the Karolinska Institute, where I work, is moving, and they are throwing away a lot of crap. I took one of the overhead projectors, stripped out the old 240 Watts lamp + cooling unit (to be replaced with a less energy-draining yet brighter LED panel from the inside. Perhaps even one of those that can be programmed to change colors).

Almost every aspect of our discipline encourages open source code sharing and code reuse. This is a discipline wide mind set.

In fact, "build it yourself from scratch" is an anti-pattern in my opinion.

I'm not condoning cheating, but why would one not expect this to be be the default behavior?

As others have suggested, there are much easier "solutions" related to logging keystrokes and commits should you really want to catch and punish this behavior.
Developers relying on OS scripting runtimes for their applications are misusing the OS; and environments that only allow the use of OS scripting runtimes are fundamentally misunderstanding their job.

OS scripting runtimes are there for the OS to use, in its system software and services. Such runtimes are not there for anyone else to use. They’re implementation details of the OS.

This is the reason that certain platform-bytecode libraries get packaged into OS packages, while most don’t. Those packages are also there strictly for the OS itself to use, with versioning allowing other OS packages to rely on them. If you’re not writing OS software (e.g. something that runs under init(8), speaks D-Bus, is part of minimal installs, etc.) then you shouldn’t be relying on those packages.

Consider the fact that a lot of “application software” OS packages—packages shipped by the distro!—actually vendor their own runtime and libraries. They do this because they have separate needs from the super-stable-but-minimal runtime provided by the OS.

If not even the distros themselves think it’s worthwhile to rely on the OS runtime for everything, you shouldn’t either.

Unless your software’s relationship with a daemon or library is “I expect that it was already here when I got here, because that exact ABI version of it is part of the definition of the platform we target”—just vendor the dang deps.

Yes, they become your responsibility to audit. The distro was never going to do that job for any software not required to run itself anyway.
Two things I can gather from this if it happened to hold true across the hedge fund universe:

1. Large shops employ a lot of fundamental analysts and larger funds only get large through outperformance.

2. Less on the fundamental side, funds regardless of size that have automated retrieval (and likely processing of public filings) probably have a higher than average disciplined investment process which leads to outperformance.
You're completely discounting the possibility that the 'brainwashed' crowd is correct. Are you willing to entertain the idea that you're wrong? What evidence would it take and are you willing to allow a world to exist such that the evidence could be attained? In other words, are you willing to live in a world in which a company might openly state that part of the reason for their success is age discrimination? And could they even acknowledge this publicly without it negatively impacting their success?

This is why I keep trying to point out that moral arguments are fine. You feel age discrimination is unjust. You feel we should legislatively subsidize a demographic which is usually more wealthy, fine. But if you're going to make an economic argument, that it's better for the employer, then you've lost me. Because I don't believe you know that. And even if you did know that it's unclear why we should legislate it.
Are you confused with this idea that people can be assholes, and in a moment of frustration would do something bad in the hopes of screwing over someone else?

There really isn't a deep thing here.

1) One of the biggest reasons they fell out of favor for more "mathematical" approaches was that no one could really explain why exactly they worked.

Kind of like how nobody can really explain how the brain works, or life in general. My gut feeling is that it is hubris to think that we are going to "figure out" intelligence with increasingly sophisticated mathematical models anytime soon. We are not giving proper credit to how complex it is, and the multi-billion year developmental process that it took. We think we can just short-circuit that with some fancy math because we've had success with planetary orbits and other comparatively rudimentary phenomena.

The current industry approaches are great for extracting certain kinds of value out of large data sets, but in terms of producing a result that could even begin to be considered as interesting as life (i.e. AGI or "strong AI"), I believe we will have to rely on creating a system whose inner workings are too complex for us to understand.

In other words, going off of Arthur C Clarke's definition, life is magic. And we're trying to create something equally magical. Almost by definition, if we can analytically understand it, it's not going to be interesting enough.
