This is not correct.

1) It is true that for Aristotle, ethics and politics are closely linked. (Indeed, Aristotle announces in the last chapter of the Ethics that the whole book is actually the "beginning" to the Politics.) But it is not true, for Aristotle, that "you can't have a good society unless its citizens are ethical people." In Book 3, Chapter 13 of the Politics, Aristotle actually recommends excluding the most ethical people from the polis.

2) This is completely wrong. Aristotle is not expounding a "set of principles for living a rewarding life." That is the basis of the modern ethical project. Aristotle's conception of ethics is quite different. Far from providing a set of principles to obey (à la Kant, or the deontologists), Aristotle provides a set of virtues to achieve. Living the good life, for Aristotle, is not at all about following universal principles -- rather, it is about trying to achieve the proper virtue in a given situation and context.

3) This is probably wrong, especially if you mean "science" in the modern sense of the word. As Aristotle explains in Book 6, Chapter 3 of the Ethics, for him science (episteme) is actually only one of five possible ways of "attaining the truth." (The others are art/techne, prudence/phronesis, wisdom/sophia, and intellect/nous.) And it is not clear at all that the approach that Aristotle himself takes is a "scientific" one, especially considering the way that he describes the inherent limitations of his inquiry in Book 1 of the Ethics. Furthermore, Aristotle does not observe and critique the behaviors of other people so much as he does their opinions (i.e., doxa).

4) Again, the idea that Aristotle had an "empirical method" that is basically the same as the kind of argumentation that modern commentators employ is spurious. Did Aristotle look at the world around him? Of course. Does that make him an empiricist, as you describe? No.

What happens after that? That, I find interesting. Post modernism, maybe.

Well, if there is a new wave of reason, then a backlash of unreason is not unexpected.

Having previously owned a used BMW: I wouldn't touch a BMW without a warranty with a 20ft pole. I mean... The only way to realign the headlights if they get thrown off for some reason is to pay the dealership $200+ because they can't self correct and the only tool that can access the headlight controllers is BMW proprietary. Run, run while you can.
What you said by mentioning the groupthink status quo is something worth mentioning, but it hardly settles the matter.

I was trying to say that dismissing credibility solely because most disagree is just not a good argument.

We wouldn't have gotten very far if the scientific method included: "test your hypothesis by asking the most reputable people what they think."

It should just be an indication of what is likely to be correct.
Do you have to own a Mac or anybody can register one of those accounts and use MapkitJS?
I think there's probably something to that. Insightful!
That moral opinions equals the one of Peter Thiel about the good in mass surveillance: based on his opinion that after 9/11, powerful western entities were on the side of really harsh intrusive countermeasures (and the restriction of current liberties quite probably), that could probably, fundamentally change the western societies as they existed at that moment.

The alternative to that way of doing things was to allow the existence of public and private entities like Facebook and their subrepticious intrusiveness, allowing mass surveillance, but also allowing to avoid other gruesome measures.

And that could explain why nobody can pull-out a facebook takedown.

Is the Model 3 sold at a loss? I'm pretty sure the Model S was, but haven't heard anything definitive about the 3. Except for Elon Musk's comments, which I don't trust for a second.
So why lock in macOS at all?
I'm trying to think of how this situation works. And the only one I could come up with is that you're writing software that your clients use internally. Or I guess the software could produce something that your clients would end up selling to their clients.

The biggest "risk" is where you interpret the user of the software. At what level does the rights to view, modify and redistribute go away? Does your client have to make source available to its clients?
The power train and drive train can be different as you pointed out, and sometimes they're not. One of the upgrades for the Model 3 is to the power train and drive train as well.

As for technology, eh... maybe.

Safety features like airbags, backup cameras, ESC and anti-lock brakes are now mandatory on most smaller cars. Lane departure, dynamic cruise, blind spot detection, and huds are becoming standard features on most mid sized cars. Newer features like Super Cruise are optional just like Auto Pilot in the Model 3.

I don't think the entertainment or nav packages in any car are worth it. I would actually consider paying extra for them to remove it and instead put a shelf for my phone with a USB port.
Why MS cares your private repositories? give a reason?
Maybe using your code to train their programming robot, lol
The word manifesto is something you don't want to be associated with. If what you wrote is considered a manifesto, you are probably off base, or simply crazy.
As it turns out, these features will only be available with the next beta, which is due some time in the next week. So in the strict sense, the GP is correct here.
Yeah I should have mentioned Caltrain but it really just travels from one expensive place to another.
The article isn't fretting about a lack of demand. Clearly the demand is there. Tesla just absolutely sucks at delivering. I'm going to buy a new car this weekend, and if I could actually get a Tesla Model 3, I would. But I need a car, and I'm not getting in line and waiting a year on the off chance that they figure out how to actually manufacture something.
I'm not sure if this will be good or bad for GitHub in the long run (it might actually bring some benefits to GitHub users, by adding more free services, e.g. free private repository), but still, Microsoft as a corporation is not open source friendly, as far as I know, the company still operates its own in-house patent troll and targeting open source related projects/services.

This is an old article, but I don't think a lot has changed since then:
http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2007/...

If anyone knows if they have stopped making money suing or making dodge deals with Linux/Android vendors, I'd love to know, if so, I'd start to believe that they, as a corporation, are becoming more open source friendly.

There is a big difference in buying patents for the company's own protection, and buying patents for making money trolling other companies. And unfortunately M$ is on the second group, making money as a patent troll.

Those are not comparable numbers. The relevant number would be revenue from ads in Android apps.
Just my 2c, if money isn't an issue, the latest MBP13 will be good for computing on the go. But will recommend the 256gb model since 128 is a tad too little. imo, the touchbar is just gimmicky and I have friends who don't use that at all.

MacBook is pretty but for a slight top up, you get a better processor and computing power. MBP15 might be a little too much for basic computing.
They have a couple, neither are usable by Cloud customers. I believe the git integration is for Stackdriver Debugger (debug stuff in prod with viewing source), and container builder[0].

As for issue trackers, there is the chromium one that is based off of the old Google code issue tracker [1]. And about a year ago they started exposing a newer issue tracker[2].

So much this. The complaints about Memoji for example, does anyone actually understand the possibilities of that tech, especially for making feature films? Think about the applications of that in areas such as hospitality or customer service as well. An augmented reality “person” to show you around your hotel room for example or help you check in for a flight using natural facial expressions — and super easy for a company to create without having to do character animation for each spoken sentence.

For “Hacker” news, many people seem very much “get off my lawn” and fail to see the future. They see stickers and teenagers but what they should be seeing is an entirely new and natural way to interact with the world. This is like rounded corners in 1981.

Apple could invent a flying car that reverses global warming and people would complain that the color scheme is just a touch too whimsical to be taken seriously. They’d complain about how Apple doesn’t support their cassette deck they had installed in their old Audi. They’d complain that real drivers shouldn’t need cup holders.

Do any of you people care about actual joy, delight or fun? Does anyone actually have the ability to imagine the future even a little bit? Must we be constrained to a monochrome CRT?

This tech is a small building block of the future and many of you dismiss it like it’s some gimmick. I know you guys wanted Craig to talk about performance and stability — but, if people actually knew anything about WWDC, you’d know that those topics get covered exhaustively throughout the week. The keynote is about big ideas and what is going to be possible. The smaller sessions are where the questions get answered and the spec sheets get explained.

Whoa, I'm not sure why almost 50% interest added to the cost didn't ring alarms earlier, you are right.

So the corrected 60/120/180: $23k, $25.5k, $28k.

And true, it will be worth something after 10 years or so, figure $10,000@60, $5,000@120, $3,000@180 but it varies vastly with the brand, mileage, and condition.

Corrected again: $13k, $20.5k, $25k

Damn, looks like it's close to a wash after 10 years. But, consider that the used car is a Lexus with heated/cooled seats, leather, nice audio, power seats and windows, automatic wipers, etc. etc. and the new car is a base model Toyota Corolla.

Plus, the use car will not be worth zero, hopefully, after 10 years. I guess 60/120/180 would be something like $3k/$2k/$2k:

So for the used car: $9k, $15k, $19k

So a bit ahead again.

It looks like with these napkin calculations the $20-25k mark is the break-even point at around 10 years. So any new car more expensive than that is going to be more costly, obviously, relative to a used car.

Well it was a fun thought experiment.
Isn't this description flawed though? Waves of different frequencies are independent in power. Thus they don't interfere (when time-averaged) -- at all. Zero. (this is because signals of different frequencies are orthogonal in the time-average integral of product sense)

What creates interference is difference is phase among waves of the exact same frequency.

It's odd that the paper author is making such basic EM theory mistake, and I wonder what the actual device construction is like. (since it cannot work the way he describes at steady state)

Maybe he's interpreting phase modulation as frequency modulation? Of course at steady state all frequencies would be the same, making this a weird/incorrect interpretation I think.

There are lots of dairy products in Indian food, so, yes there's plenty of cultured ones like yoghourt & paneer ("cheese"), but significant numbers of Indians drink fresh milk (actually fresh milk - as in milked that day). When the Indian cricketer M.S. Dhoni was younger and was just coming into the lime light, there was an interview with him where the interviewer asked him his 'secret' and he said it he was drinking a glass of milk every day (or two glasses or something).

GPL for an OS is I've thing. GPL for a compiler and runtime is entirely another, since only the latter forces any project you create with it too carry the GPL license.
I was mostly using with React and firebase for fast prototyping. Then I started using more of Flow to have some type safety. But overtime I started looking for a stronger type system that would allow me to experiment and build stuff easily. I feel like I started getting good enough with Purescript to build stuff fast, couldn't have the time yet to build a big thing to compare how fast my work flow is compared to react.
But I'm sure that I spend far less time debugging in Purescript than react, and bugs are mostly logical bugs that could be prevented with better types structure and testing with Quickcheck
Not bad but not quite the same. One is supplied by the OS and the other is ad-based from a third party.
Not in the face of generic NP hardness. From your own link, even NP completeness is not enough.

> Any strongly NP-hard [which may include strongly NP-complete] optimization problem with a polynomially bounded objective function cannot have an FPTAS unless P=NP

I was criticizing someone for claiming the author's work is pointless. The author's work is an attempt to find a complexity class for markets (and the problem they solve). If we know the complexity class then maybe there is a PTAS. But without the author's work you can't begin to claim there is an epsilon.

Good questions:

1. Wifi only. You set it up like so: https://blog.foundrytechnologies.com/setting-up-a-relay-for-...

2. The firmware has SSL-support built-in but our server currently doesn't support it too well.

3. Not at this time. The idea behind making this an IoT device is to allow it to be controllable from anywhere, not just the local network.

Regarding using it as a dashboard, we're planning on releasing an API for it which should make that part easier.
Microsoft currently offering free private repos and them acquiring GitHub may be quite telling. I don't think people fully realize what kind name recognition GitHub has, on the Git hosting space.

When Microsoft shutdown their competing product to GitHub, I think they had like 200 active users. Compare that to GitHub, which had millions of active users. Maybe this is the same with private repos. That is, the number of paying GitHub customers is an order of a magnitude more than free VSTS customers.

I really think Microsoft wants what Amazon has and if they can funnel GitHub users to their cloud service, this acquisition will become a no brainer. Plus, the data that GitHub is able to gather from issue conversations, code reviews, etc. may well prove critical for ML/AI research, that can help Microsoft develop intelligent software tools.
Being able to self host and fork are huge, if GitLab ever goes off in a bad direction there will be a fork instantly that can continue.

Mentioning this in a couple different places, but consider Molten (https://moltengl.com/) for this use case; it's a third party but very high quality reimplementation of Vulkan and OpenGL ES atop Metal. In other words, an easy way to adopt metal without actually porting your app.

Thank you for an actual response. That's heartening, but I'm still not sure if Amazon and Google are held in equal footing :(
Well done to all the smart people involved in making this happen, you're all making such a positive impact on human society, go you!
A few things, or rather ripples, survived the bubbles. AI crashed in the 1980s - but we eventually created Dragon Speech, handwriting recognition and a few other useful solutions. The DotCom bubble burst, but we wound up with [arguably] useful results in the long run (agile, or whatever comes next, might be the biggest ripple).

Even if this bubble bursts, bigger and greater things will arise because of it. With only 2 samples of these bubbles the p-value is miserable, but history has taught us to see these bubbles through.

Wisdom is not the sum of success, it is the sum of failure. We need to learn just how far we can push deep learning - within reasonable moral degrees of freedom.

True. This is the only sane reasoning they could've had.

That's the point of OpenGL; to my understanding, Vulkan is a modernized, lower-level spiritual successor to OpenGL.
Fair points. I don't think they are going to effective though for an average enough user to change Apple, and that just addresses the customer angle. As a developer you don't have much choice to boycott Apple.

You have to pick your battles in life. There are a huge number of companies I have chosen not to do business with and a long list that I'd boycott before Apple. I admire you if this is the cause you want to spend your life fighting for like I admire RMS but if that's the case one should really consider spending their energy ensuring a viable good alternative exists, and maybe lobby for regulations. Merely shouting 'boycott' in a niche community will not change Apple's behavior I don't think. This of course is not a discouragement to try, but a personal opinion on practically of achieving the desirable outcome. Especially so when the competition is much much more anticonsumer in a myriad of ways.
If multicollinearity were such an issue, you'd be rejecting a wide range of techniques, such as including a lag term as a regressor for autoregressive models.

In fact, you could consider this situation as an autoregressive process, using generations instead of traditional time steps.

Due to the nature of the format, loading USDZ will always be slower than loading glTf. No matter how many smart engineers and money you throw on it, you can't optimize it faster. It's due to the nature of the data it stored inside. It takes more computation to translate USDZ than glTf to the format renderer/calculation uses.

The example you given is actually irrelevant for consumer use cases. For consumers, loading speed matters. They are interactive apps. They can't spend too much time loading. While for film studio, they are batch rendering scenes. Loading speed is a lot less important.
You are surprised at that?

When a site requests location permission I only get the option to deny request and make Safari remember that decision for a "day", not "forever" which is what I would like Safari to do, esp. for sites like Google.

Now I have looked at forums and didn't find anything that helped. Contacted Apple support (via call and chat both) and on both the occasions I was told that I need to reinstall the OS which was frustrating but heck I did just that with last major update - backed up my data and did a fresh install. I still face that issue. I called Apple Support I was again asked to do the same - reinstall macOS as Safari alone cannot be reinstalled.

Yes, but you need to switch to an older version of of Xcode/ developers tools if you want to program CUDA on a Mac. Specifically I have to switch back to last Decembers release when I want to do any CUDA development on my 2015 MacBook (I don't think there is any later Mac's that even support nVidia).
