This is pretty much how it’s done. But if you don’t tweak (or amend in patent terms of art) well you end up with a pretty worthless patent.

You also can only tweak with regard to disclosures already described in your application.

It's a bit like saying "It's too expensive to have 12-man juries, etc, so we should just stick with mob justice" or "This democracy thing is all a big hassle, we'll stick with divinely instituted monarchy"
LMAO. This will go over like a shit hamburger with my friends of the middle class, middle aged, nuclear family persuasion. Which at least half of them are democrats, and I predict this type of thing would temporarily unify democrats and republicans, of the voting kind, to shoot this down. I'd have a hard time finding a non-laughable, scientifically backed, argument to press them with.
I like to hear podcasts when I am performing some mindless task that keeps my hands or eyes busy. Driving or cycling to work, walking around / exercising, doing the dishes or the laundry, cooking, eating lunch when I am by myself, etc.

I find that podcasts are more engaging than just putting up some background music on my headphones in these situations.

Depends what you measure. Some parts if you microbenchmark them are 10x faster, or much more.
Not sure what you mean by great, but very common software: Amazon anything, Apple’s App Store, SailsJS. But documentation is tough so I don’t begrudge them much (except App Store, dear Lord that was a terrible experience)
The market for pharmaceuticals is already very far from being a free market. It's a heavily regulated industry with extremely high compliance costs. In this specific case, further market distortions in the form of patent monopolies might be necessary to make the market work. Most industries do not have this level of regulation.

The way you achieve this is not by asking women to “please don’t mind the abuse” it’s by helping police the abuse 24/7, especially when no woman is around.
Life is not a crime drama we really don’t know how to solve most individual crime even with essentially unlimited resources.

Ex: Somone was robbed at knife point in a city. With no direct physical contact with victom and no image of who did it and you don’t have any way to track this down.

People mostly get caught becase they can’t retire of of one thing so they keep rolling the dice and eventually something changes.

Yes, that is a good point.

However, to balance it out, private schools generally do not take on children with IEPs because it subjects them to all kinds of overbearing regulation from the government. They don't have much freedom in acting differently than what the bureaucrats want. So, it is unlikely your child would be allowed to get a better education at the private school, as it would be dictated by the same people running the government schools.

Hell, Fort Wayne, Indiana is within the 100 mile zone, as all of Lake Michigan is deemed to be part of the border.

So's all of Seattle, as the entire coastline is deemed to be "border" as well.
Assuming your premise is correct (I don't know if it is or isn't), I'd guess that running a good private school is a pretty different prospect than successfully privatizing public education.

Do private schools do better because The Problem With Education™ is essentially who is administering/teaching and private schools are more effective at that? Or do (some) private schools do better because they select a demographic of students (directly by admissions or indirectly via who applies for various reasons) that's effectively less expensive to bring to positive outcomes?

From what I've heard about charters (which seems to be one good place to evaluate this) it seems that while some students who switch have better outcomes, as a whole, it's a wash at best, which suggests to me the problem is less a question of public vs private and more like student selection (maybe a question of scarcity of educator talent).
Sure it is. It's nothing but a gussied-up libc implementation for 8-bit AVRs. It's as "real time" as you want it to be.

>I consider it driven by a nasty, Platonic impulse

I wouldn't say it's necessarily nasty. There's always been a wish (possibly romantic) for children to be raised in common.

e.g. "It takes a village to raise a child".

e.g. from Assemblywomen by Aristophanes, as summarised in Wikipedia:

>She proposes banning all ownership of private wealth and establishing equal pay for all and a unified standard of living. She further explains that people will no longer have a need for personal wealth as all basic needs will be met by the common fund. She further adds that men and women will be free to sleep with anyone they want, so long as they first sleep with the uglier members of the opposite sex. Parental responsibilities will be shared by the community as children will no longer know their fathers

There's also the fact that we made it through the Stone Age and other prehistoric times in small roving bands with presumably no formal education. Yet the scraps of knowledge of how to hunt and survive were passed down effectively.

People lived more intuitively then and in some sense there was more equality.

Yet that isn't the alternative that's being proposed. What is being proposed is a top-down bureaucratically-controlled system applied to all children regardless of their or their families' wishes. It would inevitably be the most expensive option quite apart from being a giant zombie factory and propaganda machine for the future powers-that-be.
I'm trying it out now, I guess meet you back at this thread in another 10 years?

FYI for others wondering about the same, I wouldn't wait the full 10 years unless you are going to study something very industry adjacent like software engineering methodology. I've had to spend a lot of time relearning anything theoretical.

I bet the sweet spot is 2-5 years.

This is probably going to sound outlandish to the majority, but I take it a step further and don't trust any car (+driver), period. Including drivers with massive amounts of experience or skill (even the best have failed spectacularly).

So what do I do instead? I mostly cycle and ride where motorists don't drive and set the largest possible safety margins. I recognise this is not immediately practical for everyone but I'm fortunately set up in the right place with the right knowledge to achieve this.

So far this year, I've been in a car four times, a train twice and a plane twice. Musk is pushing for a world where everyone is dependent upon a form of low-occupancy heavy motorised transportation (including wanting to reinvent the train). Naturally, I recoil at this and so should more. More cars will never save the world.
Thanks! Currently working through The Algorithm Design Manual, and next on my list is Introduction to Algorithms but I will add your recommendations to my reading list
You've always been able to do this via avrdude (which is also what this tool uses). The Arduino IDE at its heart is just package manager + a wrapper for various tools, specifically avr-gcc and avrdude for the AVR platform.
Then, there's Australia, which puts the "use our iOS/Android app to get through quickly" sign right next to the "no cell phones here" one.
This is cool stuff.

But she doesn't mention two key things about opera, which are perhaps relevant here. One is that theater was illegal then in Italy, under Catholic law. So opera was a workaround. The other is that vibrato arguably evolved to help audiences understand unamplified voice over background orchestral music. So it's rather a hack on the human auditory system.
It's not a pressure sensor, but an induction loop. Basically, there is a coil placed on the road that has a small AC current passed through it. When a car (metal) sits on top of the coil, the two "coils" couple, changing the overall inductance. A simple sensor can detect this change.
VERY INTERESTING, THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS

It's TCPizza delivery! much better than UDPizza - I never know when they cant locate my MAC.
Yeah, I still think that's overkill, simply because the bulk of the computation is done on a remote server anyways. All you really need on the frontend is a TCP/IP stack to send telemetry and receive commands.

If the connection is lost, the exchange can just fallback to "naive" mode.
If people were to become more introverted (or at least participate less in in outside activities and spend more time removed from real-life interactions) would this mean in a two-tiered system people will act "themselves" when they can hide tastes and behavior and seek approval in other domains? Or, will they carry over the veneer to seek approval even in situations where it's pointless?
Oh, that looks great. Thanks for the recommendation. This seems like it would be a great continuation from HtDP to OOP languages.

Capsule Networks for Protein Structure Classification and Prediction
Yep, that's because CARs are one of the first medically relevant genetic engineering projects that is not just a "cut-and-paste change". It is the insertion of a new capability into the immune cell. That is of a very different kind than prior approaches. And it's why the movement forward here really will start to accelerate as there are more and more changes that come online that more resemble CARs - and are inventive of new functions rather than just a simple tweak.
I have been a tech writer, and I would say something similar, that you need to know two things to write well: audience and purpose. The road becomes a lot clearer after that. Rules on writing fill whole books, but most writing would improve tenfold if writers remembered audience and purpose.

How do you fumble something so obvious? Selfishness. The poorest writing I've ever come across I have to assume that the writer is not writing primarily for the reader. He's writing for his boss ("My boss told me I have to write documentation. Once I get this done, he'll be off my back."), for his company ("I have to cover every possible shenanigan in this license or my company might get sued"), for his paycheck ("I'm going to pour on euphemisms like maple syrup so the reader can't help but be hynotized into buying our product"), or for his ego ("I'm going to use really big words, fashionable memes, and a chummy style to get people to think I'm smart.").

All of the other sins are microscopic compared to the writing from selfish motive. Most of the other rules fall into place if you remember just this, love thy neighbor as thyself.
Yes, but being mindful of the negative consequences of employing mitigation strategies has to be kept in mind.
This will probably cause users to avoid side-loading which is a shame. It will be harder for developers to avoid the store-tax.
> The U.S. Constitution does not apply to non-citizens because the United States of America has NO sovereignty outside its borders.

There are plenty of non-citizens within its borders.

The US Constitution deliberately and carefully uses "citizens" in some spots and "persons" in others. Stuff dealing with voting, for example, uses "citizens", while things like the First and Fifth amendments say "people".

I have an unrelated question for you: what's the state of the art in audio codecs?

Back in college ten years ago I was told that while technically we have 24bit ADCs, it's more of a marketing stunt because the few last bits are essentially garbage since the voltage levels correspoding to some of the more significant bits are somewhat off.
Not necessarily. I'm working with B&R's range of industrial controllers at the moment, which are Atom processors with a few hundred Mb of RAM and CF cards up to 32Gb, but still running a traditional RTOS with hard timing guarantees. They have built-in web servers and (basic) web browsers...!
To me, none of those on their own, without context are oxymoronic. Yes, their meaning is often stretched without that being realized by the speaker, but at the same time they have a useful baseline meaning.
I had the same feeling with my previous job. I wasn't doing any good for society. Starting out happy, after five years, I was just too tired of all the shit and eventually resigned. It actually got to the point where I resigned before I had gotten a new job.

My takeaway is this: If you feel bad about your current job and its contribution to society, start applying for other jobs. Just find something that looks better. Do it now. There are both jobs and businesses out there that aren't all bad. Once I quit I felt a huge relief, and after starting my new job, I've never come close to being as tired of work as I once was. (I'm working for the government now with no particular individuals earning too much off of me.)

Another option is of course to start your own company, if you feel you're up to the task. I kind of have a dream of starting my own company, not take out all the profit for myself, but as profits grows, hire people and giving them good conditions whatever job they're doing. Spread out the wealth and set an example for others. But I'm not there, and I probably never will be.

Someone mentioned education earlier. I think education is one of the areas I think humanity can benefit greatly from computers and software. The Khan Academy mathematics web training is a great example. There is no good reason why textbooks, instructional videos and interactive exercises shouldn't be free these days, and there are probably ways to get governmental financial support for this in Denmark. All the mathematics, physics, chemistry, geography, language and social sciences we currently need to learn the first 8 years of schooling isn't really evolving that rapidly either, so good learning software would probably just need minor updates now and then.

After education, environmental issues are probably next in my book. But I feel they're connected in may ways. Education for everyone is crucial to understanding the importance of our current environmental issues around the world. It's also a fact that rise of education leads to fewer kids in a population, reducing the overpopulation of the earth.

Then you have distribution of wealth, which was you first point. In our part of the world we actually have the position to speak up against inequality, and we should use it. In other parts of the world, you can be too poor to have the means or energy to stick it to the man, because everything is about survival for the next couple of weeks. The western, developed world exploit the third world systematically to get cheap goods. We consume way more than our fair share of the planet's resources. But the ways our goods are produced aren't transparent, which is why we agree to keep up with it. We don't see all the child labor and the slaves who work 70 hours a week for almost no pay.

In short, the world is rotten and unfair, and my only advice is in my first paragraph. Don't let the world bring you down, but don't accept the current state either. Be happy but rebellious and do not accept unfairness.
How are you quantifying that?
why not go at the source of the signal?
At the end of the day that still doesn't really answer the question: "Do companies save money by mistreating employees?"

I don't think you can answer that question by just looking at Tesla.
You don't need an RTOS to know that a system without extraneous background processes isn't doing extraneous background processing. Where precisely do you think think your timings are going? You're not also running a Minecraft server on the nav computer. Using Linux doesn't mean you also need to enable stupid PC things like search indexing or seti@home. Navigation isn't resource constrained. The only resource constrained component in the whole system is the computer vision module and it's going to be on its own processors, and the rate at which it can hand off new output is on far faaaarrrr longer timescales than your interprocess communication latency.
I believe they built their own, exactly for the reasons I outlined above.
The internet IS serious business. Combining it so much with popular culture just dilutes understanding and destroys standards.

Google should allow users to install trusted keys and then this wouldn't have happened. Users could install apps signed only by the Epic store.

Instead, through Google Play Services deals with manufacturers, they prevent this from happening at the system level, don't they, other than for phone vendor stores?

You can only blanket allow third party apps, which you have to toggle on and off every time you do a third party update, and not just add a specific store's key. At least that's how Amazon Instant Video seems to be.

I assume this refers to a PHD. The masters degree I got is also post-grad.

I'm not sure if anyone else covered it but you have to have a certain amount of money to get a PHD. I was approved to enter a doctorate program at Stanford. I couldn't afford it so I went to HP to earn some money. After the five-year approval expired I was disappointed that I could never afford it. (We're talking astronomical numbers here).
Twitter has a character limit which is bypassed through screenshots. Screenshots also are a sort of backup in case the original content is deleted for whatever reason. Not a good backup, but a backup nonetheless.

It's also faster and easier to take screenshots than it is to preserve formatting of HTML/CSS and it suits Twitter.

Related topic: Azealia Banks's recent screenshots of messages relating to Elon Musk, his companies, and other things.

The OP user did end up posting a link to the thread, but I never bothered clicking it. The first screenshot grabbed my attention sufficiently that I just continued looking at the next. They almost act in a similar manner to Wikipedia link previews. Twitter for better or worse is where things still go "viral". I had a love-hate relationship with it but no longer spend a lot of time there these days. There is some method to the madness...
Ματσάρες την δεύτερη αγωνιστική της Serie A
Time signatures are about writing and reading music. A beat being in 3 or 6 is independent from the time signature, which is whatever the transcriber thought best (you can always count a song in 6 in 3.) A piece in 4 might have pervasive use of triplets, so it would make it more readable to notate in 12/8 rather than 4/4, but there is no triplet-pervasiveness threshold for when to prefer one over the other. Likewise, it would be foolish to have the stress in a waltz occur on the 1st and 4th, then 3rd, then 2nd beat of the bar (this happens if you notate one in 4), but any enterprising composer would be able to thwart any rules you cared to come up with to codify that without much effort.

So: the time signature just describes how many times to count within a bar/measure, and what subdivision (that corresponds to a certain notation) you are counting. For communicating to another musician the rhythm of a song you'd just drop the subdivision part, because it's only relevant to notation.

Why do you say it's a waltz? The intended audience is clearly not ballroom dancers.

You might argue that anything in "waltz time" is a waltz, but then your argument becomes circular. You would be saying it's a waltz because it's in 3/4 time and it's in 3/4 time because it's a waltz.

Virgin Galactic’s Rocket Man
I know the author wised up and moved on, but I would rather work construction for the rest of my life than be a programmer and live like this.

I worked for a startup for a couple of years that really got it right. The CTO really wanted a certain lead developer as his first hire (they had previously worked together) and the lead dev said (paraphrased, of course) "Nope. Not interested in working more than 40 hours per week. Not interested in startup culture. Not interested in grueling deadlines. I like taking long breaks in the middle of the day to go for a run. I come in early, and I get home to my family early."

They gave in to every one of his demands and from my understanding, in the 3 or 4 years since he took the job, devs have only worked longer than a 40 hour week maybe 5 times total.

That dev team has consistently deployed great feature after another at an incredible rate. I have since moved on but I don't think I'll ever find a place that respected their workers like they did.

I don't have a point to that story, no takeaways, no morals, no snappy advice or anything. But paired with my current not as good job, and this article from my worst nightmares, it's made me a bit nostalgic for that wonderful time in my life where I worked for a great place that trusted that happy employees are good employees.
