AWGN would not help with fit probabilities, you get an additional constant term in log likelihood L. You still get to at least evaluate the log likelihood function or show that AWGN dominates the other term.

The protests may have been mostly non violent but the process was far from bloodless and included some of the most appalling examples of colonialism. Separating it from the partition of India is also not easy, and that had somewhere from hundreds of thousands of casualties to millions. Where do you stop and start counting the casualties the process caused? Taking a narrow view reduces it rather markedly.
Most well engineered keyboards are splash resitant and easy to clean if they get sticky.

But that is not the problem. The problem is really that the keyboard is susceptible to a problem that 99.9% of other keyboards are not, even on laptops.

A complete failure of operation because of dust is inacceptable on a device that will be expose to a lot of environmental dust from being in laptop bags or having people carry them around to eat or similar.
So back to Basic then, this is Turbo Basic (1987)

' a = *addr
a = PEEK (addr%)

' *addr = value
POKE addr%, value

'a = addr
a = addr

'addr++
INCR addr%, 2

'a = &variable
DEF SEG = VARSEG(variable)
a = VARPTR(varible)
a = VARPTR$(varible)

> Yes because that’s how laws work

Again, you clearly have no idea about what you're talking about. It's quite obvious that a law means nothing if you have no way to enforce it or if there are serious repercussions if you try. The moment a lone employee acting alone creates a problem for his immediate supervisors or higher ups, he singles himself out as a target. In jurisdictions that follow an at-will employment doctrine, where any employee can be immediately fired without any justification, then any employee that raises any problem to the company's managers can be fired just for being a nuisance.
1. No need for a lawyer to draft the bylaws, you can copy-paste from various resources.

2. The newspaper ad thing still exists, is a reminiscence of the past but only adds 100 euros or something to the overall cost.

3. "Into this account you must deposit no less than €4,000." = probably if your company's capital is $4000. You can start with 1 euro of capital if you wish (but that's probably not the greatest idea).

4. Overall, the easiest way is to first find a good accountant, and let them deal with the administrative side of things for ~1000 euros or less. If you do everything by yourself, you're probably good with 250-300 euros of expenses.

To Start, you bring up an excellent point regarding the Pepper issue of a poorly secured salt(aka Cryptographic Key). Also, you are correct that an attacker that can get your password DB is usually able to successfully pivot.

So here's what I propose: Don't store the key anywhere. Instead, have it be computed from something(s) known and done in a very random and complex manner such that there would be no possible way to decompile release mode code in active execution without triggering a segfault and revealing yourself.

See the way you beat a rainbow table is you make the ultimate password large enough to exhaust the practical rainbow table limit since it grows exponentially. So if you do a SHA-256 hash of the password on the client size then you have effectively transformed it into a 64 character password, far larger than any rainbow table could hold. Now it is still susceptible to the direct hash storage in the DB. So I suppose the most secure way is to do it both on the server and on the client.

For something like Minecraft where the voxels are comparatively huge they’re probably using something like Marching Cubes to extract a poly mesh from the voxel chunks rather than ray tracing. You can actually get pretty far with surface extraction techniques see for example the VoxelFarm engine.

Depends on your goal.

Do you want to:

1) Cool down your room?

2) Warm up the outdoors?

3) Warm your room further?
That's the intended use case but it works also when there is no break

$ python3
>>> for i in [1,2,3]:
print(i)
else:
print("completed")

1
2
3
completed

That should be a "then", but admittedly a very useless one.

I agree that for the intended use case "else" is a better choice. It's like the else of the if that failed to find 2 in this code:

>>> for i in [1,2,3]:
if i == 2:
break
else:
print("we didn't find 2")

Still "else" doesn't hint much at what's going on, especially if the body of the loop is long. Maybe "nobreak" would make it immediately understandable to everybody? However in the best Python tradition I would make it very explicit, remove the feature from the language and use boolean flags. They are less compact but easier to understand than a feature that (probably) very few people know about.

>>> we_found_2 = False # this is a valid assertion now
>>> for i in [1,2,3]:
if i == 2:
we_found_2 = True
break
if not we_found_2:
print("we didn't find 2")

That's also the only way to do it if there are multiple break in the loop on different conditions.
Depends on how that tradeoff works. If you wanted to push up CEO salaries, certainly. But you could as well see that recruitment due diligence is of limited power.
Frictionaal losses are part of the consideration, but just plain bearing wear is a bigger one AFAIU.

Well it depends on the heigth to floor - call that htf, in which direction the fan will work effeciently. Basically you have a flow of cold air inwards at ground level and a flow of hot air outwards at roof level.
So the best solution would be to support the hot outflow, in the mid-layer, and let thermodynamics at the windows do the work.
Fans don't really cool, they just move air around. Thus you'd want to blow the 30 degree air toward the 20 degree air to decrease the temp inside the room.

I am not sure, exactly what do you mean by "verifying" that your data serializes properly?

Do you mean that you don't trust the protobuf implementation itself to write the correct bytes, or are you worried you may have written the proto file wrong?

If it's the first case, protobuf is a widely used format that has been rigorously tested in the field. Provided you use it for a major language, you should be fine.

If it's the second case - could you not just serialize and then deserialize, and check that the objects that pop out again are the same as the ones that you sent in?
> But I think the message is, as it’s carried over the years, is that there’s one sin, which is to treat people as things. And most of the other things of mankind, actually stem from that sin.

I remember reading that bit years ago, it was said by Granny Weatherwax (I don't remember which book it was in, though). It resonated deeply with me, and I find it an astute observation.
I assume you want to move the cold air in and the warm air out. How to best achieve that completely depends on the shape of your room and the holes to the outside. You should probably do some computational fluid dynamics on a model of your place to see which blowing direction works better. It probably works best if you have separate inlets and outlets for the air that are maximally far apart, like on the ceiling and in the floor.

What kind of future, though? Don't take this the wrong way, but to me Silicon Valley seems like the most hypocritical and cynical place in the developed world today. Just take a look at the social issues and inequalities in the area, but I think you're already aware of that.

The false dilemma of Silicon Valley being the only possible model to "create the future" sounds like a classic pompous Valley view, maybe the US can afford part of a state to be like that, I don't know if I want that for France. And this is coming from someone who made a startup in France, and is currently working in the industry.
Surprised that the TI-8X series and TRS-80 got mentioned as popular applications, but not the Gameboy! (well, it's not _exactly_ a Z80, but it's close enough that reasonable Gameboy emulators are feasible on a TI-83+SE: https://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/419/41990.htm...)

The ironic bit is that the emulation experience is fundamentally flawed because the TI-83+SE has a lower resolution display than an original Gameboy. The original TI-83 launched in 1996, the Gameboy in 1989.
I had the same experience with pointers.

The whole topic is mainly discussed over the web. But I always have the same questions:

* How explain the value to managers and/or direction to add a step when the code review is not present in the company?

* How to enforce the process inside a team? What to do in front of a developer who do not want to change his/her code after a code review?

* When do you put the line between immediate correction or new ticket when code reviewing?
Assuming you want to cool down the room and there is 1 window:

Open the window in the room and open the door to the room. Ideally open a window somewhere else in the building and make sure there is a potential airflow from that other window to the one in your room.

Place the fan in the window of the room you want to cool down and let it blow outwards. Alternatively you can place the fan in the same way in that other window you opened.

How can you accuse me of not knowing how labor laws work, and then try to suggest that it is up to employers to enforce employment law/regulation? It is employers role to comply with the law, the department of labor enforces it. You don’t need your employers permission to report law violations to the department of labor.

Assumes small room with only one window and can't open anything else: Place the fan in the lower part of the window blowing down inwards. Sucks in air in bottom half, warm air goes out above the fan.
Like others have joked about, it's really about where you want the air and temperature to go.

Let's say you have three fans in a computer case, one at the back, one at the front, and one on top of the CPU. If they all blow out of the case, then you've basically created a negative air pressure zone, and you will be sucking air through the vent holes elsewhere, and through any gaps in the case. This may have effects for where the dust is taken in.

If all of them blow into the case from the outside, you've created basically a high pressure zone, and air will be taken from the room and pushed out through the same cracks and vent holes elsewhere.

A fan if it's pushing against high pressure will inherently push less air because it's pushing against air that isn't moving as well. A fan that is trying to pull air out can also become inefficient if it is working hard to suck air in to eventually push out. Therefore it's best to have matching airflow - what you push out, you should try to also pull in somewhere else in more or less an equal CFM (cubic feet / minute).

For a room, it's best to have one area that is your intake and the other side of the room be the exhaust. This way you aren't just exhausting air you just pulled in. If you just have one fan, I suggest blowing out, which will draw air in from other spaces, such as under the door, because of the negative air pressure by pushing air out.

(I've worked these problems with indoor gardens and HVAC systems, where there's a lot higher CFM fans and spaces, but the theory is basically the same)
It's the peaks in the spectral domain. The cochlea is lined with little hairs that are tuned to different frequency bands. When they're stimulated by sound waves, the nerves they're attached to create tiny electrical impulses which propagate into the larger networks of neurons that make up the auditory cortex.

When a neurophysiologist uses the term "entrainment" it usually means that they either observe neuronal firing rates or spectral content of energy over populations that is somehow directly influenced by properties of the auditory or visual stimulus. In cases like this, it's like "we played an x hertz tone and shortly after stimulus onset we saw energy at x hz appear in a population of neurons"

Keyservers and GDPR
My experience as an anglophone, non-French entrepreneur living in France is that the regulations and business climate reflect the belief system of the population. There is a fairly widespread acceptance, even among well educated French people, in several of the following beliefs:

- Companies are exploitative of their workforce and should be strongly regulated to protect workers;

- Excess company profits are a sign of unfairness and abuse, and maximum profits should be controlled to protect against such unfairness;

- The role of an organisation is to provide employment;

- Unemployment can be reduced by making it more difficult to fire employees or make their positions redundant;

- France's international uncompetitiveness, especially vis a vis Germany, could be solved by making other countries similarly uncompetitive by imposing similar burdens.

My partner is French and a Human Resources consultant to medium and large organisations. The horror stories she recounts would make most entrepreneurs run a mile.

My business is online and I can locate it anywhere. I've chosen Ireland for a variety of reasons. Eurozone, English speaking with good multilingual talent availability, good international transport and relatively light touch regulation. Tax rate wasn't a significant factor because the effective rate of tax (after factoring in state subventions) is relatively similar between the two countries.

France is a great place to live but a terrible place to run a business or to hold capital assets. The high taxes pay for a very good public health system and a good transport system. Unfortunately, they also pay for a huge amount of public sector waste.

France for startups works well if you're well connected, in which case you're made. Connections are, however, largely forged early in life, in Lycees and Grand Ecoles, so connections and networks are much more difficult for an outsider to penetrate.

As an example of French business mentality, my friend's business (online/social) has few actual users and no paying users and is 100% supported by a mix of grants and supports from a myriad of government organisations, and by large corporations who are obligated by government to set aside an annual budget for supporting such endeavours. My friend's business is considered a success in France. I consider it a personal success for him, insofar as he has navigated the system quite well. But it's not my definition of business success.

You don't have to get it all right on the first try. If you get something wrong, the regulatory body will contact you (via letter or email) and tell you what they feel like is not correct (that is the official guidance on how to handle GDPR violations).

As long as you do your best to implement the GDPR and interact with the regulatory agency in a friendly and helpful manner then there won't be much need for a lawyer (but do consider that the GDPR being written as it is is also the result of being written in the EU where law is written a bit differently)
My experience is not as painful as yours, but I do not know the Delaware process.

I incorporated a "SAS" in France with the help of an online accounting service. It cost 500€ in fees, required a few hours of paperwork and the company was ready 2 weeks afterwards (KBis, bank account…).

Now I pay 90€ / mo for the accounting service, and 10€ / mo for the (online-only) bank account. That's it.

Note that you do business alone, with not too much volume, you can opt-in for the easier "microentrepreneur" status. It has low taxes, easy accounting and is straightforward to set up.
Estonia's corporate income tax is set at 20%:

As for the budget share, a significant part of that is going to be govt-owned corporations that are used as cash-cows, for example the energy production / distribution monopolies, national lottery, Tallinn Port etc. Last month's news - this year they contributed 157MEUR dividends:
https://www.aripaev.ee/uudised/2018/04/19/riik-votab-ettevot...

In the end, "regular" companies end up paying less than you imagine. I think it could be a sign that the policy is working - companies are investing into the future and "paying it forward". Or they are doing creative feats like taking out profits as loans to parent companies, which is also known to happen, specifically the big Scandinavian banks here.

Specifically for startups, it is going to make a big difference if you do not need to pay yearly corporate tax at an arbitrary date (in relation to your business) and can a) postpone this until profitability or b) never pay a dime if your idea never pans out. You can even steer your company towards an exit without ever having to think about it.

Many people I know personally only distribute as much profit as they need for themselves. It is not double taxed with personal income tax, so it is spending money already after paying the corporate tax. This has lead to a debate as to whether this actually constitutes "entrepreneur salary" with entrepreneurs therefore paying less taxes than employees (the salary taxes are much higher: http://palk.crew.ee).

That is why for a startup you can "essentially" forego thinking about it. When you do, you know you have made it :)

I never said anything about SHA256. I talked about one-way functions.

The thread model is an adversary that gets unlimited access to the values stored for this purpose, and knows the function used to compute it. He wants to check if a given email is in the set. One-way functions is provably the best way to be able to ask yes/no to the question if this email is in the set with no false answers. I have not said anything about using computationally expensive one-way functions because that does not matter if the function takes 10 seconds to compute. He already knows what emails he wants to check.
IP is person bound and personally identifying, in a lot of countries you can trace back an IP to a list of people and with an additional information like a last name or a timestamp you can fairly reliable identify a single person.

Let's further assume that I'd rather have the room cooler than 30C. Also, regardless of which direction the fan will blow, there also needs to be another place for air to move into and out of the room. So let's also assume that the window is the only opening, but the fan doesn't fill the opening produced by raising the window. One more assumption: I can point the fan with freedom in most any direction once it's placed.

I believe I'd pull the cooler air into the room by having the air blow in. I might also point the fan up and away from the other side of the window (up because I want to disturb/displace the warm air higher in the room; away from the non-fan side because I don't want my cool air to be pushed right back out.)

I don't want to cool the warmer air, I want to replace it with cooler air.
