The thing is, the winners have the money to put up with any amount of onerous hoop-jumping that the EU tries to put in place. For the non-established players, the cost and liability of all this shit is too high to break in.
I will try to convey what only disabled people can convey to the best of my abilities. First, with one image you lose a lot of luminosity with the glasses on. Without the glasses, off course, it is unwatchable. Furthermore, and more subtle, many people like my partner have /partial/ paralysis, so they have trained their brain in a certain way to compensate for the fact that they have partial binocular vision. The 3D effect don’t tolerate that since they rely on two images precisely engineered to trick your binocular vision « brain algorithm ». All this put together make 3D movies a «no-go » for people with monocular or partial binocular vision.

Edit: Typo and better explanation of the « trick »

Isn't secure MPC also called "homomorphic encryption"?

Agreed, it is a very interesting area!
Iteration is great but these extra-constructs seem like a unnecessary proliferation of syntactic sugar.

Which is to say, writing a for-loop is two easy lines, why worry about that?

Most of the convenience I see in the code of the OP is a language that can return pairs or N-tuples of values. That's useful for a multitude of things.

If you do operations with vectors that all the same iteration and subscription operations, then one-off errors aren't very likely. One-off/fence-post errors are much more likely when you iterate through a sequence assigned values in more complex or staggered fashion and here an iterator-type isn't going to save you since you have to figure out the logic involved (which you might encapsulate with some object or type or which might have idiosyncratic logic all its own).

Nope, the law has not been voted yet and has been rejected by the Senate.

I’ve often found that lack of motivation is a symptom of some other problem. Often the direction you think you need to motivate yourself toward isn’t the right direction, or sometimes there is a lot of FUD that’s blocking natural motivation from shining through. We’re inherently curious and excited creatures, so if you can find a way or area where that curiosity and excitement shines and unleash it without stress/worry, it flows naturally.

Byron Katie’s work has been really helpful here for me to weed through + dismantle whatever is causing FUD that blocks motivation. http://thework.com/en

Distributed power electronics are inherently dangerous. If you have a surplus of power and your neighbor has a deficit, it is desirable for the two systems to communicate to send power from you to the neighbor. If a bad actor can leverage this system to tell everyone to send all of their power to the grid, they could easily damage the infrastructure in a very costly way.

I think it's naïve to believe these decisions are completely free of political considerations, and that the Commissioners responsible are merely the purest of heart rule implementers - on the contrary, I'd suggest that those at the upper echelons of EU decision making are by definition extremely sophisticated political operators; if not, how could they end up in a position of such power?
We're basically merging the sparse experimental data we get with other priors we have (the energy landscape, residue-residue contacts predicted from evolutionary data) in a Expectation Maximization kind of algorithm, where each step you get better predictions (in the sense of they satisfy the experimental data while agreeing with the priors from the problem (low energy, nice fold..).

You don't need AI to keep your car's body level. The technology has been around in various forms for over 60 years.

So much of what people believe we need AI for is amenable to classical engineering techniques.
"A classic is something everybody wants to have read, but no one wants to read." --Mark Twain

It's amazing how much low-hanging fruit there is in classics. When I read Darwin's "Origin of Species", I found that a huge amount of it was devoted to this thing called the "Knight-Darwin Law" which was extremely important to Darwin but which seemingly vanished out of all knowledge around the turn of the 20th century, as if no-one was actually reading the book since then. Then I wrote a couple papers related to that Law, which ended up being my most successful work so far.
Freedom of Speech does not require large tech companies to carry, promote, and allow easy access to any and all speech. One’s rights extend only as far as one has the capability to express them using their own resources. If IW wants to setup their own app, App Store, and distribution channels, no one is stopping them, but Apple is not required to do so for them.
Depends how you define, "surpass."

There will be a time where we learn from the AI and the AI learns from us, where we trade victories and defeats as we adapt to each other.

Don't discount the ability of humans. They figured out how to exploit the 1v1 bot in a few days and soon humans had a 100% win rate using that strategy.
Right; we just need everybody, everywhere to adopt hypothes.is; instead of one of all the other competitors.

Adopting a single protocol by the masses is something that rarely works. It's much easier to gain critical mass if a server platform (like Wordpress) included an annotation module as part of its default modules, so that it appeared at many websites as soon as they update to the latest version. Then, it could catch on as a popular feature, and other platforms would start to build their own implementations, making it more visible and gaining traction all over the web.

(That Wordpress module could very well be the hypothes.is software, if they're compatible. But it really needs to be adopted server-side by a popular service to gain traction).

Patterns of refactoring C to Rust
IMHO a "blockchain without a consensus mechanism" is tantamount to a security door without a lock. The whole point of "blockchain" being that all transactions on it are correct and verifiable via a consensus mechanism, i.e. a distributed, non-centralized trust mechanism where you don't have to trust one individual or company to get it right.

If you really want to record transactions without a consensus mechanism, use a database.

Would this gave the option for one organization in a city to do the work for small stores? I can imagine stores might not have the resources to host a part of this, but maybe the municipality, a co-op, or a large company that wants to support the local economy could host it. This comes to mind because my employer wouldn't have a need for this since we make enterprise software, but we profess to support the local economy via hosting a farmer's market, using local food when possible in our cafeteria, encouraging local bookstores for reimbursable education materials, and even sponsoring the local public radio. We would have way more resources to host an instance than a corner shop that sells yarn.
This article from the Columbia Journalism review is level headed but tough, and brings in a few specific examples: https://archives.cjr.org/the_observatory/the_gladwellian_deb...
Mitstörerhaftung ("co-disturber liability") in German law means that if you enable someone being a disturbance then you might get slapped too.

In relation to Wifi, this so far meant that if someone torrented a movie or uploaded music without license over your wifi, you'll get a free court visit too and possibly a fine. That made operating an open and free wifi hotspot a legally fairly risky problem (lots of free wifi here still has very aggressive content filtering). The law responsible was discontinued in october last year.

This has been recently confirmed by the BGH (some high court in germany, the case was from before the law was ended but the changed law was taken into consideration), though you're not entirely off; the court can rule that you need to install a site filter and prevent torrenting or even put up a password on your wifi if there is too much disturbance caused by activity on your hotspot.
What a load of horse shit. The factual statements are overwhelmed by the ambiguous fear, Fear FEAR metaphors in this clearly manipulative, telling the ignorant how to think article.

Can you join multiple "local" timelines? Ie, lets say you join an OSS dev focused federation and you like it. Down the line, it grows and becomes less HN, more Reddit. Okay, you say to yourself, time to move to the next HN-like you find. So you do that, but it's small, and feels dead.

This critique of Bitcoin is quite short, and seems directed at Bitcoin in particular, in no way do I conclude that he is against the concepts of blockchain (say non-currency), or perhaps even cryptocurrencies that do not take on some of the Ponzi aspects.

I'd second and generalize to basically any area of research into expanding or applying cryptographic protocols.

There was a fascinating area I read about in grad school focused on deniable database retrieval, an extension of oblivious transfer.

I've long forgotten the papers and they had some efficiency issues, but seemed like the work could be revolutionary if expanded to building routing networks that prioritize privacy and anonymity.

Smarter people than me can point out this is naïve or old or broken or limited in application or otherwise not worth pursuing. I thought it seemed fun at the time though.
Quantum Computing
“We have this device that is more complicated than you can simulate on a classical computer, but it’s not yet controllable to the precision that you could do the algorithms you know how to do.”

It doesn't sound like it's usable yet. It's just a serious computer now. Maybe it means that they consider it as a seriously potential machine but it have not acquired any usability in actuality yet.
Germany. If you look up Legal Tech meetups (often hosted by law firms) you will find some law students/lawyers interested in tech. But it's still a small community. And for real techies in law, that's an even smaller pool of people.
In France, we have the CNIL that has very few powers, but always gives very insightful advices and that is inspiring CNILs in other countries. We also have some politicians who are very well informed but are actively fighting against our freedom (like Kosciusko-Morizet who wanted madatory backdoors or Bernard Cazeneuve with his decrypt law). The problem is that the difference between a well balanced law and an insane nightmare is often a question of details.
Just because folks were outraged doesn't make it any less normal.

For example: It is normal for low-paying jobs in the US to require drug tests, even though there are folks that think this is outrages and could even be harmful. All it really takes is enough folks doing the act or for such things to remain a legal part of being able to do some jobs.
I absolutely agree with this. I myself implemented the Facenet paper with minor modifications as an undergrad project which started the face recognition revolution. If one has proper data, a neat prototype can be developed even on a decent i5 system in under a couple of hours. You don't even need GPUs because of pertained model. The tech in this domain is really cheap and readily available out there.

Perhaps the facial recognition written in undergraduate or even graduate classes does not handle physical disabilities (I think you're talking about non-standard faces, in this context.) Actual professional FR systems must handle conventional appearances, as well as individuals with birth defect deformities, significant facial scarring from injury such as fire, facial tattoos and jewelry, as well as outright attempts to disguise. When talking society population, the proportion of people with non-conventional appearances is significant. BTW, I'm lead engineer of a leading FR system.
Apple and others are within their right to not promote him, but it's definitely a form of censorship when the entities that are nearly 100% responsible for actually searching and easily adding the content remove the listing entirely.

Fuck Alex Jones, but I want the tech companies to be totally impartial. As soon as Spotify led with removing music it immediately resulted with demands from political groups to remove more and more. It sets the stage for endless politicizing of everything someone doesn't like because the precedent of intervention is now made.

It gives further power to the mob rule mentality of Twitter where everything you once said is on record, context-less, and used as a kludge to attack by the loudest people whether left or right.

As someone who listens to podcasts like Reason magazine that are often pointed, if not controversial to some, this is highly concerning to me. Don't put Jones on anything but a direct search for all I care but as Sarah Jeong is now learning the pitchforks can come from the right too

In a heart beat I'd trade my 9-5 that pays over 6 figures to never have to work again.

I think its also worth mentioning that humans are doing so well, that maybe UBI isnt needed. Homes/food/transportation etc... are all the cheapest in human history. Ive already noticed that I could potentially retire in the next few years.

The point of legislation isn't to prevent people from doing something, but to create some consequences and make it so you can't be too brazen about it. For example, speed limits don't stop people from speeding, but they do reduce it. Those who speed will be more vigilant around corners watching for cops and this has some improvement on safety. Arguing that you shouldn't have speed limits just because it's too easy for anyone to speed so you can't have 100% enforcement misses the point.
Just seems like a downgrade to posting it on said forum.

For example, now you need a UI that enumerates the articles that have comments on them. Maybe new comments even bump to the top. Starts to sound like a regular forum but with a small gimmick to me. There’s a reason this never caught on.
