But that's the thing, I really don't think what you're proposing has anything to do with what google wants to ban. What you're talking about is already possible using services like coinhive that can be used to embed a miner on your page instead (or on top) of using regular ads. That doesn't require any extension.

These cryptocurrency extensions like the one I linked in my previous post are not used to monetize websites, rather they're just a somewhat regular crypto miner shipped as a browser add-on. You don't use it to pay for browsing pages, you use it directly to mine the currency and earn money. It's probably significantly less efficient than a stand-alone miner but it's easier to distribute that way, especially if your goal is to scam people into integrating your pyramid scheme.

There's no reason such a system would have to be engineered to be totally trusting. The car, in that situation, would likely be set up to say "nope, my sensors say that's not safe" and hand off to the driver or reject the input.

Use it just for additional input to err on the side of safety. If the car ahead says "hey, I'm braking at maximum" and my car's sensors show it's starting to slow down, I can apply more immediate braking power than if I'd just detected the initial slight slowdown.

Or, "I'm a car, don't hit me!" pings might help where my car thinks it's a radar artifact, like the Tesla crash last year where it hit the semi crossing the highway.

I don't think that's true. I don't think I know anyone who doesn't at least occasionally use Reddit; my aunt told us a story at the family get-together that started "I saw this on AskReddit...".

Certainly anecdotal evidence, and I'm inclined to believe the largest user base may still match your description, but personally I feel like you're describing 4chan, not Reddit.

That's a common lay criticism of IQ tests, but it's not at all common among clinical practitioners or psychologists. It's also completely at odds with the outstanding literature on the subject[1].

There is broad clinical and professional consensus that IQ tests are both statistically reliable and valid for a number of generally useful measurements of cognitive ability.

I think you can make a compelling case that IQ tests can be misused as a hiring filter - for example, you might not need to hire people who score highly on it. But as a standalone assessment, modern literature doesn't leave much room for debate on its psychometric merit.

Has anyone already managed to get this working? I currently get:

expected runtime to be one of [nodejs4.3 nodejs6.10 java8 python2.7 python3.6 dotnetcore1.0 dotnetcore2.0 nodejs4.3-edge go1.x], got nodejs8.10

It might be due to my using TerraForm and that needing an update, but it's also not yet listed in the docs: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/API_CreateFunct...

Or perhaps it's not available in all regions yet?
People will differ about whether the statement is worded clearly enough, but it is a bizarre thing to put on the very top of the page. It is completely aspirational, and there is no factual basis for it either. No company has yet achieved full self-driving capability, so how can Tesla claim their current vehicles have all the hardware necessary? Even if it's true that future software updates will eventually get good enough, what if the computational hardware isn't adequate for running that software (e.g. older iPhones becoming increasingly untenable to use with each iOS update).

Those are just more reasons why it's harder to inappropriately access the data. My point was that you may need access to the key fast for health-related reasons, and so from that perspective it may reasonably be deemed "less safe" even if it's more secure.

iPhone Slowdown Lawsuits Ordered to Be Centralized in Northern CA District Court
I gave up watching TV news at least ten years ago. The combination of owning no television at the time and dial-up Internet virtually eliminated my consumption of always-on visual news. I'm not sure if I'm happier, but the few times I've switched on the news in recent years, I've noticed almost immediately how I felt after viewing.

24-hour TV news is in a position where there is only so much data, but the staff has to keep talking to avoid dead air. What we end up with is mostly speculation and banter without a lot of substance. The next big reveal is always after the commercial break, and there's only enough morsels to keep you watching, never enough to satisfy one's curiosity.

In spite of the urgency with which television news is framed, very little of what makes the news has short-term consequences to me. Typically if there's a situation where I'm affected, I already know about it. The streets are flooding, the phone is receiving alerts, or whatever. Everything else can be reflected upon over a period of time. One thing I've noticed with regards to TV news is how little agency I have as a person over the situations presented. It's a litany of reminders of things we can't control.

Could you elaborate on the PaaS? I've been avoiding it, but partly that's perhaps because I'm a control freak and not for any particularly good reason.
While I understand the sentiment, I don't think it's fair to deprive yourself of a form of entertainment (i.e owning a TV) because there are commercials. If that were the case, wouldn't you have given up on the internet a long time ago due to the nature of ads and propaganda being everywhere?
My Subaru has a "lane assist" feature which helps keep you in your lane while driving. It only gives a little bit of pressure in the direction you should be moving to help you out and if you don't do anything the car will still move out of the current lane. This certainly helps me stay more aware as I can't ever rely on the car to fully steer, but if my concentration lacks during a turn on the freeway I get a reminder that I need to turn if I'm not paying as much attention when I come upon a curve in the road or just drift to one side a bit. So it definitely helps me remember that I'm always in control.

OTOH, the car has probably saved me from at least one accident where traffic ahead of me suddenly slowed down right as my attention relaxed. The _only_ correct way of using these systems is to treat them as an extra level of safety on top of your responsibilities as a driver. An "extra set of eyes" to help you avoid an accident while leaving you as the primary driver of the vehicle.
I'm coming to the end of a build of an RN app for a startup with lots of custom mapping and graphing stuff. It leans heavily on MapboxGL and react-native-svg to do some cool stuff. Building the same thing natively would have taken at least 3* longer, and there haven't been any particularly bad hacks necessary. I've been impressed by the performance too. I have no regrets about using RN.

Nonsense. Do you have kids? Kids have "blow-outs" all the time that send poop exploding out of the diaper and onto their pants and shirts (and socks...and shoes...). These clothes, they don't get boiled. We soak them in water and detergent for a few hours and then throw them in the washer with the rest of our laundry. I have two kids, including one in diapers, and I've never once had any hygiene issues and you better believe that my washer has seen some poop.
A great article. I've read it a couple of times and this part always gets me:

"In the cockpit, the situation was off the scale of test flights. After Dubois arrived, the stall warning temporarily stopped, essentially because the angle of attack was so extreme that the system rejected the data as invalid. This led to a perverse reversal that lasted nearly to the impact: each time Bonin happened to lower the nose, rendering the angle of attack marginally less severe, the stall warning sounded again—a negative reinforcement that may have locked him into his pattern of pitching up, assuming he was hearing the stall warning at all."

They must have been so confused and frightened.
No, that conclusion completely ignores the fact that the kind of people who buy Teslas are generally not the kind of people who drive unsafely anyway and die in terrible wrecks.

If you give every shitty driver a self driving Tesla maybe you would do something to make roads safer, but if you’re just giving it to higher net worth individuals who place greater value on their own life, you haven’t even made a dent in traffic safety.

In fact in some cases all you’re doing is making drivers unsafer because the autopilot encourages them to not pay attention to the road no matter how much you think they are watching carefully. The men killed in Teslas could have all avoided their deaths if only they had been paying attention. If I see a Tesla on the road I stay the hell away lest it do something irrational from an error and kill us both.
And what will save the planet? Maybe if we all pray hard enough...
Those two premises that Hackers and Assuage and Facebook manipulation influenced the election don't have to be mutually exclusive.
The comment above you supposes that people who drive teslas have fewer accidents on average, even without autopilot.
Saying that autopilot "lowers the average" would mean that autopilot lowers the amount of accidents for tesla drivers, while "lower than average" could mean that while a tesla with autopilot is safer than the average, it is less safe than a tesla without autopilot.
Pretty complicated
I want to ask: why is Tesla's advanced suite of cameras and ultrasonic sensors unable to detect a big, yellow and black stationary barrier?

In combination with chevron markings that mean "never ever drive here". Either should be a globally overriding signal to emergency break or turn, not "keep following the white line".

If the answer is "during morning light, it doesn't see it", then they need to take the feature offline until the car is fitted with an appropriate LIDAR; or other technology that can detect stationary obstacles.
Correct! Most importantly, there are no strings attached in terms of any IP rights on whatever you create.

A lot of people might say they are going to do more for privacy or interact with FB and other social media less, but until there’s a proper followup study in day 6 months, I don’t know if I believe all the respondents. I believe that they tried to truthfully answer the questions. But that some of it is reactionary and/or the right thing to say at the time. Maybe I’m wrong though?

Thanks for the link of course! Great write up and charts to look through.
I am cynical. What's your angle? I presume that the idea here is to find open source projects to become heavily "invested" in, and then find ways to extract out a commercial offering, whilst engaging in (free) open source labour? Sorry for the cynicism, but offering only $2500 (+things of variable value) sounds like you are trying to target desperate people to take advantage of almost. Ie. If an open source project grew a commercial element, it's going to be worth a bunch more than that. Please, I stand waiting to be corrected. Thanks.
Why? The car isn't driving by itself. What matters is whether Autopilot is a net safety improvement, which it currently appears to be. Why would you add the weird requirement to the system that it be better without human input at all?
I check news once a week, sometimes less. I mean reading newspapers, opinion articles, news on television, the subreddit of my country. The most relevant news come to me through comments from friends or family, in the after-dinner talks or meetings. With that combination, I am well informed of current events, and I am not overwhelmed by what I consider repetitive or irrelevant information.

Has he been able to solve the problem of bridging the gap between the bathroom stall and the waste bin? Ir does he flush them? Most stalls in the colonies don't have waste bins in the stall. So you are faced with the problem of how to dispose of your dirty nappies. If you walk out of the stall to the vin before going to wash your hands you will be on the business end of some odd looks. This why most wet wipers flush. There are, however, alternative methodologies.
"Pro-birth"

Yeah, they wail and wail about murdering children and then are all too pleased to scorn and segregate the mothers (but not so much the fathers) of these children so they have the worst possible chances.
yes. God is love, and God is hope, but those do not constitute the entirety of what God is

It corresponds with God's name of himself in the OT as well as Jesus's name of Himself as well:

“If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM”.

“Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’"

then in John's Gospel, Jesus says, "before Abraham was, I AM"

My former employer makes a camera-based lane departure warning system. Although I was not involved with its development, I do know that the amount of testing that they do on these systems is very extensive (hundreds of people involved in the test process).

I would be very interested in seeing a side-by side test of the LDW systems of major manufacturers. This might give us an idea if the problem is fundamental to the technology or is simply a deficiency in the engineering approach of one (or some) manufacturer(s).

That sounds like something that he should have been alerted to via Reverse 911, but I suppose he wasn't properly registered yet if he just moved.

When I was in a band, the people promoting and organizing the shows didn't have email or phone numbers. Seriously. I'd ask. It was all college kids who couldn't afford a phone plan, so they just used public wifi + facebook messenger. Email was apparently not cool enough for them, or too difficult to use.

So to get gigs, I had to make a Facebook account. Granted, I tried to put as little as possible on it.

Until very recently, a few friends had me trapped their too. They couldn't pay their phone bill. So no texts or calls. Would just steal wifi from some store, use Facebook messenger. I harassed them to get email, IRC, anything else. But they couldn't be bothered to learn those things.

I know this sounds like the stupidest thing ever. It reminds me of people taking out payday loans or going to check cashing places, because they're too poor to go to the bank.

Anyway, two of them finally got phone numbers, so Facebook is deleted now.

So do I, but Nintendo seems to have kept the flame alive, local multiplayer mario kart works fine on the Switch, and the game is playable with solo joy-cons, so a pair of full-size controllers is enough for 4 players (once you find out how to configure the bloody thing).
