Nah, jacking it up has its own new set of problems. Cellphone radiation isn't ionizing radiation, at most you're ever so slightly heating cells around it. By increasing the intensity you might be literally baking and killing cells in the process (think the difference between drinking a scalding beverage and burning the shit out of your mouth vs. letting it cool and not being injured or having the cells get killed off).

Now take my hot beverage example and repeat it a bunch of times. I would bet that cancer incidence would increase in the scalding group. (as you're destroying epithelial cells and forcing them to regenerate... and cancer is really biological lotto).

To top all the above off. With the exception of the migration from GSM to WCDMA technology (GSM pulsed the radio), cell phone radio output power has actually been on the decline due to smaller cells sizes being used in cities. It's nothing like using an analog cellphone in the 80's was in terms of output.

I personally do not want a smartphone with a 3D printed case and heatsink controlling my car. Do you hear that? It's the sound of a critical flaw in your product, no matter what you do technically you are never going to have a mass appeal product that becomes more than the nerds who hang out in your Slack channel.

But it's fine for a lifestyle business I suppose. You can market to them and sell them over-priced odb2 fit-bit-for-your-car dongles. Until Honda or whoever comes out with a "good enough" consumer grade "auto-pilot" (whatever that means these days because you still have to watch the car like a teenage driver), you'll loose a huge swatch of users right there who are only spending time on it to be on the cutting edge of tech and to look cool for their friends. Once it becomes a blender, those users will leave and go on to the next thing that grabs their attention in a banner ad. Or else people will get bored, loose interest after the first few joy rides with their friends. I'd imagine retention would be difficult in a business like that which takes a lot of sustained effort and engagement from the users.

The only possible path forward in this market is to partner with an OEM (car manufacture vroom vroom), have access to users, or make some kind of must-have tech that you can then con one of the real big money backed self-driving companies into buying. I've seen a bunch of web apps popping up lately that offer to annotate your training data, those seem like a lot better pump and dump tech companies than this dashcam that plays Pandora and runs some cool python PID controller.
This is true if you believe in the LNT (Linear No Threshold) model:

It's an interesting idea.

You can have quick development. You can have reliable, predictable systems. You can not, ever, have both.
Correct. However one of the key differences is that when the Republic was established, per the Constitution, States' Rights were a primary aspect of legislation. The federal government had very little power and very few laws compared to today. Most laws existed on a state-by-state basis. The USA of the late 1700s was really more like the EU than it is today.

And that's why New Hampshire needed senators. New Hampshire needed to ensure that it could still get the things it needed from the federal government (presumably money in most cases) to make New Hampshire a good place to live. That's why land has voting rights -- New Hampshire (using it as an example for all less-populated rural states) used to be a lot more sovereign.

Now things have changed. New Hampshire isn't just ensuring that it gets the resources it needs. Because most laws in the US are now enacted on a federal level, New Hampshire is deciding implicitly how /other/ states behave. And this is the problem, and is clearly against the intent of the Constitution ("any power not explicitly granted to the federal government will be left to the states").

So, the bicameral legislature as designed made sense. But in its current context, it's fundamentally broken. If we want to return it back to its original intent, then it's time to get back to a period of States' Rights.
I find deep threads that wander away from the topic distracting and sometimes frustrating. Especially on mobile, there's no easy way to collapse the thread you're currently on without scrolling back to the root comment, which might not be easy to find.

Maybe it would be nice (though hardly matching HN's spartan philosophy) to allow the community to assign titles to subthreads, for example: "subthread about housing costs in SF". That would allow me to skip it without having to read multiple comments before realizing I got into the rabbit hole of a topic I'm not interested in.

The median disposable income, after all normal life expenses (i.e. the "beer money" leftover) in the US is about $1000/month. The American middle class has quite a bit of money for discretionary spending and can easily afford a $500 emergency.

The oft-repeated "$500 in savings" thing was based on the savings accounts, which most Americans don't use or don't have because they aren't useful. I don't have $500 in a savings account either, but I have much more than $500 in cash available in the case of emergency. That study is frequently misinterpreted; it measured something irrelevant to how Americans manage money.

How much time did it took ? And what NEW technology you need to learn to achieve this ?
I think of high level talks like these emphasizing timelessness. Technologies change over time and with in different contexts. But the theory remains as a way of thinking abstractly about a problem.

Besides, at the level of jobs I apply to now, interviewers care much more about my thought process than specific technologies.

>We dismiss claims about mobiles being bad for our health – but is that because studies showing a link to cancer have been cast into doubt by the industry?

No. Industry probably casts doubt even when it's undeserved, but there is no reason to believe claims that mobile phone radiation causes cancer.

Even if the evidence provided would prove true, it would not matter. Reported effect sizes are so small it would not be reason to change behavior.

Microwave radiation has multiple potential ways it can change biological function, not just thermal effects. But things like EM radiation as calcium-channel antagonist works only with cells in vitro. If you are Multicellular organism with skin, there is no evidence that you are in any danger.

This will be very controversial but lately I've been wondering why is it that Germany's atrocities are still talked about however similar atrocities committed by the Allies are ignored.

I'm active in this space and the vetting and documentation is going to be what makes this never happen. They will say they want agile, they want continuous integration, they want speedy development........ but they will turn around and say they want exactly the same amount of contract deliverable documentation, want exactly the same process of requesting approval (which takes 9+ months to get) for any new technology, library, or module, etc. Several years ago the government said Agile development should be used for any software projects going forward - without dropping a single one of their documentation requirements. The fact that one of the pillars of Agile is "Working software over comprehensive documentation" is something they seem to think they can just ignore.

HackMIT 2018 Admissions Puzzle
Having worked in defence for over 15 years, I can say with certainty that in general the level of technology in your average military product is well behind the times.

This is by design since the products tend to have 20 year support requirements and you fix the level of technology at the design stage (say 5 years development).

Its therefore commmon to be ten years out of date.
If that’s true basically the PC market for business has hit bottom. There’s very little traction for non-PC form factors as daily drivers in business, so there is a minimum market size just to keep every employee equipped with a laptop, and this seems to be it.

The consumer market can still drop further though. Most people are fine using ipads, and probably even better off than with a laptop when all things are considered.

You're exaggerating how dangerous BAs would be in this situation. As far as I know, useful single crystal boron arsenide is very expensive to make in industrial quantities and it's too brittle to be used as a large heatsink - at best you can grow a several micron thick layer of it on a semi-flexible substrate like for solar panels. Instead, I'm guessing their design uses small quantities of single crystal BAs to interface between the wafer and the rest of the chip package so it would better transfer heat from the internal silicon to a regular heatsink. Thermal conductivity at that interface is a hard limit to how fast the heatsink can draw heat from the chip package and since its contained, toxicity is largely a concern for recycling.
I decided to work on the idea at 2018-05-18.

The first milestone of obtaining a DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 lease from my ISP and successfully pinging google from my laptop through router7 was reached on 2018-06-02.

I switched my home network to run on router7 on 2018-06-15.

Today is 2018-07-14, so it took about a month to polish before actually being able to publish it. But it was good enough to use less than a month after starting work on it. I only have a little bit of time in the mornings and evenings before/after my day job, and on some weekends, i.e. it could have been done in less time when working on it full-time.

I learnt about PXE booting, MBR boot loader code, details about DHCPv4, DHCPv6 (had previously not looked at DHCPv6 at all), how wireshark does ssh remote capture, and a bunch of other things I’m blanking on right now :). Lots of interesting details to be learnt in this space!
>..."not possible to publish medical data in an anonymized fashion that does not infringe privacy rights".

1. Sometimes it is.

2. I already gave substantive reasons why this will commonly occur in environmental medical research -- dense datasets about small populations that capture sensitive information about individuals.

> I do not see how it's takeway from that paper.

Because that's literally the only assumption in the adversarial model other than "access to the published dataset". And correlating with an auxiliary dataset is literally how all actual instantiations of this attack work.

> just sprinkle some private data on it, show it to IRB, they cry out "no, this can't be released, no way!" - and voila, you are safe from review.

1. My proposal doesn't say "IRB happened to say you can't publicly publish this one particular protocol." My proposal says that IRB explicitly judges that no such protocol exists.

2. IRBs are not that arbitrary and are themselves audited.

3. If you're this paranoid about intent, then you can't trust the research anyways. If the research is committing intentional fraud, they could just do it at the data collection step.

The way I see it, either:

A. Even if we can't trust individual scientists, we can more-or-less trust a broad subset of scientists with different and well-aligned motives (as in, a whole group of: the IRB board, the PI, the people reviewing the IRB board) when they say that data can't be shared for privacy reasons; or,

B. We should expect that literally dozens of scientists, all with different motives, will routinely and actively collude to commit wide-spread fraud.

If (A), my approach makes sense. If we max out paranoia and go with (B), then I don't know why we should trust the data regardless of whether it's published publicly...

Yes. When I moved there I had to convert my BS into the French equivalent. A 4-year BS == Bac+3. They also have various vocational and technical degrees that don’t have a US equivalent, like sommelier or vintner.

I wouldn’t necessarily call it better. I have friends who have taken 8+ years to get their Bac+3. The lower tier universities have capacity issues. The class you need may be full and can take years to enroll. Also, with no motivation to pass students you are truly in your own. Things like office hours, tutors, study labs, and the library not being open late like we have in the US. These are surprisingly uncommon in France.

I actually don't know anything about these sorts of things. My complaint is merely that you claimed julia is not even worth comparing with when you don't actually know how tensors are implemented in julia or if whatever it is you're doing here is possible in julia. Instead you compare to PyTorch and assume julia has as shit semantics as PyTorch which is false.

Perhaps someone who knows more can comment on whether or not julia meets your criteria here but either way, I think your presentation is misleading.

Lastly, if doing x in a culture y puts people at risk, people will avoid doing x and it totally have to do with the culture itself. Even if things-similar-to-x happen in different cultures for different reasons.
Gotcha. I graduated from a public university with a strong engineering college. Typically 50% switch majors sometime during freshman year across the board. They usually then go to computer science, chemistry, or biology. If those degree programs are too hard, they go to business or at least that is the trend many of my fellow students noticed.

Those are weird examples (asbestos and lead in paint/gasoline might be better ones) for this particular topic, but, no?

Again using asbestos and lead in various products as examples, there are real dangers to public health in new products/technologies, and while I don't want to see the technological progress we've made stopped I do want to see more effort made to anticipate, mitigate, and lessen the potential harm caused by new technologies (and the irresponsible behavior of many of the companies pushing them).
That's true, but it feels like the HS curriculum has gotten easier, too, and that might be part of the reason that a high school diploma isn't valued by employers. My perception (anecdata!) is that helicopter parenting has badgered the faculty such that my niece and nephew have a lower bar than I did for any given letter grade (and that I had it easier than some of my much older cousins).

Another point is that HS graduation rates in the United States have been basically flat (after a long, steady increase) since the 1970's [1], despite constant calls to increase it.

When more than 9 of 10 people already have HS diplomas; when the economic condition of each student's family is highly predictive of graduation; and when and each school tends to have a fairly homogeneous characteristics, it's hard for me to see how you can raise graduation rates without lowering the bar. Unless you're open to adjusting the economic condition around under-performing schools, of course.

The video says that bluetooth operates at higher frequency but about 1000x lower power, which makes a lot of sense. Having a small device near your head broadcast a message a few feet seems much lower risk than having to broadcast all the way to the nearest cell phone tower.

Another thought: my phone and provider (Pixel 2, Google Fi) will automatically use WiFi for calls when available. I wonder if that mode is significantly lower radiation for the same reason (shorter distance to cover, so the signal doesn't need to be as strong).

Yeah it's a tough problem. Maybe it's a problem without a clear answer. I do think it's more intuitive when reading a tree structure until it breaks somewhere in the middle and starts again. Then I'm lost. But I think about a flat system where I have to connect all the dots myself in the head, and it's not so pleasant either. It'll probably have to be some type of hybrid system where it takes the best of both worlds and combine nicely into one. I have yet to see such system, personally.
It's trivial because (when you say things like "high availability", which is not precise nor does it apply to CAP) you're ignoring the precision required for a valid proof.
