Well humans have evolved and are still evolving, there are differences between humans that emerged in the last few thousand years, or what do you call the differences between the human races.

"There are only a few groups who diverged at a set time and remained discrete until now. The KhoiSan split off from the rest of us 100,000 years ago, and the Australian Aborigines about 40,000 years ago. Native Americans, who are a sub-set of the East Asian population, became isolated from population-exchange with Eurasia and Africa 12,000+ years ago." [1]

The thing is humans in the modern age intermingle much more so the differences are subtle and much harder to pick out since they don't remain as discrete.

Is Google Map's navigation updated too slowly?
Last Saturday (19th of March) I was checking the yearly traffic nightmare that germans and swiss-germans go into when they want to have a long weekend in Italy. Every year, many cars queue up on the fastest way to traverse Switzerland to go into Italy. This way is through the Alps, precisely the St Gotthard tunnel. This is a "slow" tunnel, since it is a two way tunnel. During the holidays to avoid major issues, the body responsible for the tunnel prefers to filter cars by stopping them before the tunnel and letting go a certain amount of car per hour.
This year there was apparently 25 chilometers of queues from north to south. The reason there were amny more cars than the usual queues (~15km during big holidays) is that another slower tunnel was closed (St. Bernardino).

Now, the reason I post this is that I did check on Saturday afternoon, right into the nightmare time and notice two things:
1. passing through the main tunnel was around 1 hour slower than usual. Highly improbable, but it might be right. I seriously doubt it's right, but I don't have numbers to explain how traffic flows through the tunnel.
2. the second tunnel closed on friday. No one passed through it in the last 24 hours apart for firemen and police. Why google maps was still giving it as a possibility?

I think Google Maps used to have updated traffic data, but now I believe they just focus on places they believe are important and let the rest just update slower. This is of course a big deal, especially if you were a german last saturday and wanted to have a break in Italy.

Note that you can still force it to go through the St Bernardino tunnel even if still closed

This should be taught in high school. It's amazing that high schools teach nothing about how business works in a market society.
My best guess would be that your data is going through pseudonymization and so you are no longer uniquely identifiable.

[1] By contrast to anonymization, Article 4(5) of the GDPR defines pseudonymization as “the processing of personal data in such a way that the data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information.” By holding the de-identified data separately from the “additional information,” the GDPR permits data handlers to use personal data more liberally without fear of infringing the rights of data subjects. This is because the data only becomes identifiable when both elements are held together.

I've been going it alone for a while now but would be keen to bounce things off like-minded people. I'm on a few big car forums but they're generally based around performance and mechanical modding, with electronics being a tiny subforum or afterthought.
I feel like at this point it’s not too far-fetched to say with absolute certainty that earth is in the process of a long-term terraform by some alien species, and that humans represent the final step of that process, by warming the earth and making sure carbon is properly distributed through the atmosphere, as well as collecting and separating the metals that our alien overlords will feast on. When they’re done feasting on us.
Interesting observations. But for me, (been in Japan many times over the last 5 years), I didn't notice any of the items you mentioned.

Seemed similar to NY/SF speed in Tokyo, Osaka, and Yokohama.

To me, there is less or no small talk- definitely in places like Lawson and 7/11, but even department stores, with local or foreigner customers.

I noticed things go slower in Kyoto and other small towns, but no slower than small towns anywhere else in the world.

It´s not easy to distribute on the bigger App Stores but the biggest challenge would be to become known. You need to get covered in Magazines and blogs, reviews are also great and maybe, if you have enough money, you could pay to get featured on the main page of the app stores. You need good pitches and a lot of work to get in contact with authors.

Interesting indeed.

If humanity in its current state somehow manages not to destroy itself (and much of everything else) the probability of speciation of our survivors is close to a certainty. Not so much as a consequence of natural selection or sexual selection but of human selection.

If we survive another 100 thousand years, we will inevitably see another emergent species genetically superior but incompatible with current homo sapiens. I think that will be an incredible day for humans to acknowledge (the death/extinction of homo sapiens). We had better sort our differences out before that day arrives.

2. Bundling of crapware.

3. Shipping on by default telemetry in dev toolchain (.net core)

4. Blinding marketing detracting from the masses of data collection.

5. Any attempts to confront this result in silence, “it’s good for you” or “tough shit”.

Does the fact we can find objects from others systems increases the likelihood of panspermia ?
So best case scenario, let's assume that each ride is 15 minutes, that means 24 rides in the 6 hours. If we also assume full 6 hour usage, we end up with (24 rides * $1) + (360 min * $0.15).

So best case seems like $78 revenue per charge.
Looks like you're assuming every charge costs them $20. From my (admittedly skimmed) reading of the article - that's a special case for scooters that've "gone missing", and is effectively a "reward for finding and returning it".
That sounds like it failed at the stage where your taking blood and not inside some machine.

Even if the _only_ thing Bird does is enable people not to use parking spaces, and thereby permit the land for such to be allocated to other things (housing, retail, parks, etc.) that is a huge boon. It should also mean reduced vmt (for cars at least) meaning more lives saved, especially those of people walking or cycling since these scooters are in city centres, where cars are especially dangerous.

Similarly one van making grocery deliveries to 20 people is generally a _lot_ better than 20 people driving to the grocery store.

Don't slouch!

Even though it can get uncomfortable, make sure you sit up properly. And if it starts to ache, have a stretch and/or go for a walk around. Go get a cup of tea, ask your co-worker a question, anything that gets you up for a 3 minute walk.

And one thing I've learnt the hard way while swimming, if you've pulled a muscle in your back, do not push yourself until you feel 100% better.
Thinking that you feel 90% better and you can probably get back to swimming or lifting etc. quite often makes things worse.
It could still be environmentally friendly, depends on the total truck distance vs total scooter ride distance across the fleet (since a truck carries multiple scooters). Harder to work out what kind of transport the scooter miles are replacing, though - if it's walking, then it's obviously not helping.
If only the CEO at my old company was this self aware.

I don't think he even once owned up to screwing up. I ended up leaving the company due to irreconcilable differences. In our last meeting, I tried talking to him about how I thought there were problems on both sides of the table (specifically in regards to communications skills), I was quite happy to admit that I had problems and had fucked up from time to time, but he absolutely refused to admit that he had done anything wrong.

To compare apples to apples you need to look at a given sample that have engaged in the same amount of effort and compare it to another group that has engaged in the same amount of effort. For instance the media representation of the chess prodigy completely misses out that our 'prodigy' has been studying chess beyond full time for 6+ years. How does this compare to adults who study chess as a beyond full time job for 6 years? Well it's tough to say since almost nobody actually does this.

Laszlo Polgar's experiment is tangential but an interesting aside here at least on the notion of 'conventional wisdom'. Polgar wanted to perform an experiment on the nature of mastery of something (mathematics/music/chess/etc) being a matter of work rather than some natural talent as was, and remains the view of 'conventional wisdom.' After some consideration he decided to use chess, something he had no particular talent in, as his test bed -- and announced beforehand that he would create a master. He found a wife (also of no meaningful chess talent) willing to participate and they had a child which was their experiment subject. In fact the experiment was made doubling interesting by the fact that he had a girl. Then another. Then another. "Conventional wisdom verifies" that girls tend to do worse at chess than boys. Those children were Susan[1], Sofia[2], and Judit [3]. He created 2 grandmasters, and one international master. Judit becoming the 8th highest rated player in the world!

Language is another interesting example. I enjoy traveling and know many people that became fluent in languages as adults. And the vast majority tend to share one thing in common - they were forcefully immersed in the language. Cutting out the abstracts there - they tend to have wives or girlfriends that speak little to no english. There's no chicken or egg there, they invariably learned the language after moving in with the person. I expect you'll find the children that are genuinely trilingual (and not I took 4 years of spanish in school and can kind of speak it passably type 'fluent') will be made up heavily of children where multiple languages were spoken in their household - the same sort of 'forcible immersion.'

You don't trust some other party, you trust the one you choose. And if you don't trust any, you can manage it yourself.

Authentication should work like banks. Now we're not quite there yet, the site owners choose for you. That's a big shame, but it's still better than trusting some actual random website to manage your authentication.

Core.Logic is a miniKanren implementation which is quite different from Prolog (smaller and ultimately less powerful, but cool nonetheless). Many/all miniKanren solutions also work in Prolog, but the vice-versa is not true.
They want to avoid the inevitable "ground crew drove a van into the wing tip"-delays.
Once you have a good app idea, flesh it out in at least 5 different implementations and send them all to the store. See which implementation takes off, and focus on that one and develop further. This is true both for games and utility apps. Use the A/B testing thinking and try several different "look and feels" for your app idea.

Mmm.. ok, in iron Python you obviously need to specify the generic type that you are passing because it is needed to resolve the correct method, but in Java you wouldn’t. For me it’s a perfectly acceptable compromise if I can specify methods with the same signature and you can avoid passing around Class references to infer the type.

Squid beeing the best one so far but it feels like they tried to make a great app but couldn't for some reason. For example it only renders what's currently on the screen instead of rendering something that has 1.5x the size of the screen, so when you want to move up/down you don't see anything until you release your finger.

The important thing to remember about non-Prolog "Prolog engines" (which I think Pico's "Pilog" is), is that for large applications and data sets, generally for anything non-trivial, you need an industrial Prolog implementation for it to be fast.

Tiny Prologue-style "engines" can be fun and educational, but they are not a substitute for actual Prolog.

I think the point was that if you are so sprawled out it's easy to build more houses without bothering people, so it does not become a political issue. (This thought is only based on pop density and without knowing anything about the political stances of e.g. Dallas and SF, and how that affects new projects in dense areas.)

Perhaps that question itself illustrates the moral ambiguity of cold-calling?

If you rely on a marketing service that depends on buying personal information without the subject's knowledge, in order to catch people by surprise, then perhaps GDPR is doing its job by making that difficult.
