> Does this imply that any retailer in the EU has a legal right to sell goods at any price?

Generally speaking? Yes.

But there are a whole lot of exceptions to that. Books in most EU countries have a price fixed by the publisher. Predatory pricing is illegal.

> If I'm a retailer reselling Asus or Phillips products at cost in order to gain market share, how is that not anti-competitive behavior as well?

It can be considered predatory pricing if competitors can't sustain equal prices without going out of business and you can raise prices later.

> Does this mean that under this EU ruling, that Amazon could sue Wusthof for attempting to "block" its supply of Wusthof goods?

The anticompetitive nature and legality of vertical restraints (single supplier to retailer) aren't quite as clear-cut as horizontal ones (multiple suppliers or distributors or retailers between themselves).

Manufacturers have been allowed a certain amount of control over their distribution agreements like requiring enforcement of Minimum Advertised Pricing or quality standards for retailers, but each situation is analyzed on a case-by-case basis to the effects of the ban and if there is legitimate justification.

Bought Avent nipples from Amazon. A bit thinner and softer than what we had as slow-flow newborn nipples. Didn't think much about it, but baby would be a lot more fussy when using these nipples. We thought he has just getting used to faster flow.

Finally, gave up and bought same nipples from Target. New nipples feel a lot more like old Slow-Flow nipples. Baby drinks from them just fine.

It's hard to say for certain, but I would say that observed by humans, we'll probably get computers to the point of appearing to be conscious, with minds, passing the most challenging tests we can construct.

It seems like a reasonable extrapolation from modern technology. Think about text to speech producing sounds that are hard to distinguish from humans, deepfake producing images that look like they were actually filmed.
Those are all weak AI. They don't need strong AI- just tons of labelled data- to produce things that can fool inexperienced humans.

I'm the engineering manager at Google responsible for both Knative and App Engine Flex. What we heard from a lot of customers is that they want a serverless / App Engine Flex-like experience but one that works multi-cloud or in hybrid/on-prem setups. The goal for Knative is to fill that need, especially for people that already use kubernetes.
That being said, App Engine Flex is a solid GA service that provides a fully managed experience and runs huge services today. Knative is not there yet but is getting better by the day.

There's a fine balance here.

"You can't pay people enough to carefully debug boring boilerplate code. I've tried." (Yaron Minsky of Jane Street)

While C++ goes to one extreme, not having certain expressive means (whatever they may be) has a price, and for certain kinds of problems, this price may be high.

This returns to the idea I very much agree with: "The trick is to actually optimize a language for the difficult, expensive parts of development." The catch is that difficult parts are also problem area-dependent. Go definitely found a sweet spot for certain kinds of problems, though.
Maybe those things will get addressed once people have to run a gauntlet to buy a sandwich. It's much harder to ignore in an ivory tower.

Half-OT, but you're making a textbook logical error in interpreting the science you're citing. This is an observational study, making claims about associations, yet you clearly indicate a causal effect in your words.
Now we're getting into philosophy. Moral imperatives not backed by proper incentives haven't worked since society grew larger than a few thousand people, much less in the faceless, boundary-less, transactional world of today.

I am not blaming the victim nor tasking them with sole responsibility for privacy breaches. Instead, I'm proposing an explicit contact with what is already reality, that is, the lack of any privacy. This will do several things, one, strip away the illusion that there is privacy and the delusion that it can be protected when there are no barriers except in some people's minds; two, shift the cost-reward curve immediately (rather than through incremental or hidden breaches) toward taking action rather than not for producing the capabilities and structures that move towards your goal.

Okay, I get what you're saying then. Your example isn't exactly the best example... but I "get" what you're trying to say at least.

You're saying that someone can inject a "redirect header" into a fake webpage, force that upon my users through the control of a network (WiFi router or whatnot), and use my domain name and my trust to take advantage of the users.

(Your example with the Zeus malware is bad because Zeus attacked the OS directly, so it wasn't a network attack. But hypothetically, lets say it was a network attack so that it remains applicable to my example)

Alas, HTTPS does NOT solve that, at least not while globally trusted HTTPS certificate roots remain insecure. They only need to get one HTTPS certificate signed by Comodo (or some other low-security HTTPS vendor) to attack my domain name in a manner like that.

And the last mile is still going to be just as unencrypted, non-private, and tamperable as before.

You literally cannot get end-to-end encryption/privacy without the host supporting TLS.

It's really not an optional thing to support for you as an operator, and especially now that Let's Encrypt is a thing, there's really no excuse for not doing it.

(Now that we're on the subject of toxicity anyway: I'd say that depriving your users from the ability to secure their network traffic, just because you're trying to die on a weird hill, is pretty toxic behaviour.)
It's available, but in many cases agencies are unaware that this data exists. Drawing attention to it exposes people who made life errors to outsized retribution. I'm willing to bet a dollar many cases brought by smaller agencies would've escaped limitations had they not been raised.

I'm entirely sober, always have been. I still think this one-person campaign may have ruined innocent lives. Just because people may not understand the seriousness of a repercussion doesn't mean they should fall victim to those which are unfairly onerous; most people can't process risk the way we can.
> The entire point of the law is to extract economic rents for incumbents at the expense of newcomers.

While I don't (as indicated in my other comments in this thread) disagree with the idea that that is a probable ulterior motive, the overt purpose is to deal with negative externalities imposed by in-office cafeterias. I'm pointing out that, to the extent that the overt purpose is a real issue, there are much better ways to address this.
Actually you are dead wrong on that.

Homework is unsupervised extra practice. Extra practice is helpful if done right, harmful if done wrong. When done unsupervised it go either way.

According to research, school homework on average is neutral, but when you dig in is helpful to harmful depending on the educational support that the parents can supply. So it helps rich kids, hurts poor ones, depending on how well the parents can teach.

For a book-length treatment of the issue, including references to relevant studies, see https://www.alfiekohn.org/homework-myth/.

That book doesn't go into the university level, but there the situation is simple. There is not enough lecture time to actually teach the material fully, so supervised practice is not an option. So homework is the only option, and it is your problem if you can't figure out how to supervise yourself.

The dual numbers contain infinitesimal numbers but not infinite numbers.

Oppositely, the variable X of a polynomial behaves much like an infinity, but is not invertible.

Their argument depends crucially on whether infinitesimals/infinities are invertible.

> In particular, in the evolutionary history of the brain as an energy-optimizing controller of the body, a "System 1" would have been selected against extremely early on, when it directed the internal organs to act according to "heuristics" that wasted calories.

How are the calories are wasted exactly? Our hind brain triggers autonomous reactions to various inputs. Clearly not all such reactions are adaptive, sometimes staying very still and bearing some pain or discomfort is better than death. And so we evolved higher level cognitive faculties to make better choices, just a little slower than the hind brain. This is system 1.

I don't see why the exact same pressures couldn't work at this cognitive level as well. System 1 provided more adaptive reactions to a wider range of situations, but just a little slower than the hind brain. But even still, some metacognitive faculty would yield even better reactions in some circumstances, and so we evolved system 2.

But system 1 still has tremendous significance, because it's much better than our hind brain, is sufficient for most daily scenarios, and is not as calorically expensive as system 2.

The logic behind the efficiency gains is similar to the cache hierarchy in computers. We have more than one cache level because 2-3 cache levels is pretty close to optimal when trading off density, thermal considerations, and efficiency.
RecordWildCards and DeriveGeneric are clearly used but fairly basic. OverloadedStrings seems to be used for MisoString.

A giant container ship with food is just pirate bait. A walled off region full of food is raider bait. Hoarding resources in the face of desperate people in the absence of law and order is suicide, but these guys can’t conceive of a future in which they don’t command some form of control and respect so they plan this way.

The only feasible way to survive long term is either to form a large, well armed group of raiders, or a larger, better armed community full of skilled people who have each others’ backs, probably intermarried and interbred; clans and tribes in other words.

Hey GKE team, can you give any details about how this works? What does it assume/require from the underlying infrastructure?

In the fruit fly, neuronal cell types are highly morphologically stereotyped and identifiable across animals. This means that for a given cell type, you can collect data on electrical synapses in animal A, on transmitters in animal B, and on electrophysiology in animal C, and in this fashion assemble a unified, multimodal view of the parts involved. Our whole brain EM volume lets you see how those parts are connected.

In the above examples dead brains are okay except for electrophysiology, where the brain needs to be alive.
Proud of this work at Galois!
Great question, we spend a lot of time on overall latency questions.

If you're hitting a single API endpoint (imagine getting a tweet without getting the user information), we'll introduce an overall latency of ~100-ms. So this may well be slower, and might not work depending on your use case (though we have plans for working on lowering the overall latency).

But if you hit more than one API endpoint, or especially if you're jumping between API services, we'll deliver a really big win, in part because of declarative nature of of GraphQL. As we descend each node we know that we can execute the subsequent API requests concurrently, so this usually ends up being an automatic win.

And if you're doing something like joining against Salesforce data, we can automatically switch the query to use the SOQL/batch API, which can be both faster and significantly cheaper, all without changing the implementation on your side.

I meant guilt the causal relationship.

As you note, a large portion of it depends on value judgements. If I wilfully murder 1 person to save 3 from being accidentally killed, am I guilty? What if I take no action and allow 3 people to be accidentally killed?

Without attempting to Asimovly define the value of all possibilities, I'm not sure how science can answer these questions in any meaningful sense.

Without tumbling into a morass of complexity (e.g. a life is worth this because of GDP per capita and birth rate and lifespan, and taking an action is to be valued this way because of neuroscience and experimental psychology) that, should it be fallen into, would start to look more like ethical philosophy than post-Enlightenment science.

But then, that's why they were both the same field before experimental repetition was enshrined...
Lightning Network BOLT by BOLT Talk by Jim Posen
For defending against flying baseball it may be true, but there is very little chance we could build society, economy, etc. where flying baseball exists without conscious parts of the brain.

I read Blindsight(3 times actually), and he described some end result there, skipping whole evolution process, in which that alien Intelligence (Rorschach) may or may not compete with conscious creatures.

Additionally the hypothesis that Rorschach doesn't have conscious or not managed or directed by creatures with conscious is just guess of that expedition, which doesn't really understand what Rorschach is.

From another hand, evolution on Earth demonstrates that conscious creatures (humans) completely outcompete all others.

Isn't this the same as the Broken Window Fallacy?

They want to force people to use economically inefficient services, small restaurants versus large cafeteria, to create more economic "activity". Which would be analogous to celebrating the waste of breaking a perfectly good window, because fixing/replacing the window generates economic activity. Is that fair?

This is under the (I think reasonable) assumption that a cafeteria designed for 500-1000 people is probably more efficient than the dozens of smaller scale restaurants needed to match that supply.
Interesting that they built a new dependency injection framework, much like similar things in Java. I guess this doesn't replace Context, though?

More investment is not a uniformly good thing, any more than increased consumption is uniformly beneficial. Not only does it matter what you invest in—and government does not exactly have a stellar track record when it comes to choosing investments so as to maximize ROI—there is also a balance to be struck between investment and consumption. Favoring either one over the other through political means moves us away from the optimum balance, and over-investment (and malinvestment) can be just as destructive as over-consumption.
