Yet another post about some frightening scenarios, imagined by people technologically illeterate, that has little chance to happen...
English is not my first language, sorry, I think I didn't express myself well. I meant that we shouldn't be too naive when considering what other people might make of technology, just because we're idealistic.
I think you're going to have to define "active" here.
I'm not a parent, but if life has taught me anything is that time invested now is time saved in the future. Also, it's not only children who mess up a learning process. Anyone who's learning will make mistakes and probably break things. I'll never forget when my brother, being in his late teens, broke the food processor trying to prepare macaroni.

Worse, some of the daytime running "lights" are only visible from about 5 m directly in front of the car - plus on most cars, the "daytime lights" setting only switches front lights, leaving the back entirely off. That's a cure worse than the disease.

You do realize that modern humans are weaker and have a smaller brain than their hunter gatherer ancestors, right? And not by a trivial amount, but by like 10% or so.
I'm not sure why gun nuts think they will be seen as the good guys if the regime will control army, law and media and have some degree of popular support.

Exercise. It does wonders for your energy levels and your mental well-being. Plus it will make you feel you having done 'something useful' by the end of the day. The hardest part is getting out and starting - once you are busy, it is fun.

Otherwise, reading. If you have enough energy, read literary classics or non-fiction, the type that challenges you and/or teaches you new things. If you don't have enough energy, read something lighter - I am reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland currently, for example, which is fun and relaxing. Finishing a book is a nice feeling, plus the mental focus on the story and on yourself can give rise to some nice insights on yourself, people, and the world.

It's still just politics. If you've got nuclear waste not having a plan is the worst option. There's never going to be a perfect place to store waste because you have to store it for such a long period of time. The French encase the waste in glass and then put the glass blocks in granite.
This can be done with practice. There are several meditative practices to overcome an obsession with transient thoughts. Check out Daoist meditation as a start: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daoist_meditation

There are many good guided audio meditation available these days as well.

If you know what you are doing it is not difficult, but if you are doing it for the first time it a good tool to learn how to think about all the repercussions of how you program something. MISRA isn't really to catch problems with c it is to catch problems with people using c. So knowing what those problems are and how to avoid them is incredibly useful.
John Ousterhout: "It's more important for a module to have a simple interface than a simple implementation."

Richard P. Gabriel in http://dreamsongs.com/WIB.html : "Simplicity -- the design must be simple, both in implementation and interface. It is more important for the interface to be simple than the implementation."

Ousterhout here is advocating The Right Thing, as opposed to Worse is Better. Unfortunately Worse is Better has become the dominant approach and it will be difficult to change that.
I've not seen this 'common' knowledge in the field enough to call it common.

While there can be a strategic value to just getting something working, the tough part is that many times that is used as a crutch to do no more thinking or design, quite possibly because they've never been called to. And refactors happen less than they ought to. The point is to be strategic about when to turn the quality/speed dial towards speed and know you are consciously taking on tech debt.
Linked the wrong talk, oups https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uR_VzYxvbxg
Researching, working, helping your community, etc.

Basically think of what the majority of people consider "fun" and/or "relaxing": watching sports, movies, TV series, listening to music, going to parties, hiking, reading a book, etc.

I'd define "active" as not doing things most people consider "fun" and/or "relaxing".
Personally the idea of being tame revolts me. Maybe even more so than our violent and gruesome past.

I also don't think they are linked. There is a definite difference to being civilised and being tame. MLK and Gandhi were civilised, and non-violent, but were certainly not tame.
Question to native English speakers, can you please help me to understand this little nuance:

"They know all the talk of “openness to different perspectives” does not apply to causes of “social justice,” immigration, “diversity,” and “equality.” On this [sic] issues, you can either keep quiet or sacrifice your reputation and career."

So, "[sic]" here means that although it looks like it should have been "these" instead of "this", the editor understands that "this" is correct and should be kept despite initial impressions of a mistake. So, why "this"? It's not the editor trying to amplify the author's spelling mistake, is it?
Looks very cool. Will give this a try when I get home tonight, looking forward to see if I can help with anything as well. Note that Links in the Contribute Section are broken.

If we look closely, we will soon realize that everything favors tyranny. Religious institutions, political institutions, educational institutions...

The problem is humanity has a tendency to pick or gravitate to morally weak specimens for leadership. We also have a tendency to "believe" authority which often leads us astray. Would a wolf pack pick a weak leader? Would a wolf pack let a weak leader remain in position once weaknesses are exposed?

Can anyone suggest a wireless router that someone can buy today that either ships with or can be flashed with OSS firmware? I've been trying to shop around for one compatible with DD-WRT or OpenWRT and been rather disheartened so far; every promising model I've found either requires you to play roulette with the specific hardware version of the router that you receive (which is never advertised on product pages), or is out of stock entirely, or costs upwards of $250 (which is tough to sell to my friends, when their ISP charges $10/mo to rent a router with much less hassle).

Most of us no longer hunt and gather all day so it would make sense that we would not need to be as big.
Homo-sapiens were weaker and had a smaller brain, and less advanced culture and technology then Neanderthals. But we're here and they are not (except in like 4% of European DNA).

What matters is how adaptable we are. And we certainly are the most adaptable we have ever been. It might be thought that people use all of the technology as a crutch and would not be able to survive if they were transported to a world without it. But, after a couple of days, modern people would get used to what they have, make do, and be creative in solving problems. It would be hard and painful, but that's the nature of adapting.
No? How are they a threat? They spent money on Facebook ads and we don't even know if they came from the Government? By that standard, you can also say UK is a threat with Cambridge Analytia.
Anecdote:

A few years back I was travelling on a Virgin Pendolino train (an Alstom Class 390, probably) in the UK that was having a few problems. Speed changes were causing a lot of juddering, and as I remember the interior lighting and air conditioning was being unreliable. After limping on for a while, the train stopped at a small non-scheduled station and the crew announced that we'd be stopped there for a while, and not to be alarmed if the lights went off (it was night). This duly happened, the ventilation flans stopped, the interior doors all moved to the open position, seat booking indicators turned off, etc. After a pause that was probably a minute or two, everything came back to life and we resumed the journey.

Basically, they rebooted the train. It was interesting to realise that such a large, complex, fast-moving machine could be reset like that, with several hundred people embedded inside it.
How is China a military threat? This again seems to be on offense.
> Next time the death threats may not be caught in time.

Thats some strange logic. You have to weigh pros and cons.

We allow people to drink, a recreational activity and thousands of people die( actual harm) every year from DUIs.

Shouldn't we go ban alcohol consumption/bars then. Surely a recreational activity is less important than something fundamental like free speech.
> Contrary to orthodox left-wing opinion, poorer countries were not exploited

Apart from the literal carve-up of colonialism, and businesses like the United Fruit Company?

Asia very much did not have a "standing invite". Japan was explicitly rebuilt. China had a number of false starts with mass death before settling on export-led state capitalism. Vietnam tried to escape colonialism and was bombed flat. Cambodia was bombed for being next to Vietnam. South Korea and Singapore are probably closest to this ideal, which both relied on the state "picking winners" for support. Philippines exports people, and was once a byword for corruption under Marcos. Indonesia .. is never in the news?

> Now that there's an option to both eat and hate, they're overjoyed.

There's a minority for whom this is very much true, unfortunately.

(WRT Russia, there's a strong case for what happened being "democracy" and "capitalism" but without rule of law, resulting in a gangster takeover)
Ada Lovelace called creativity "the combining faculty" that "brings together things, facts, conceptions in new, original, endless, ever-varying combinations." [0]

Reflection time is hugely needed. But I don't know that it's hugely important to distinguish in that time between reflection on your "own" thoughts and those that originated in some way outside your head, because at some level it's impossible to make the distinction. You'll need a huge base of exposure to other people's ideas if you hope to assemble them into a new and interesting combination of your own.

While it’s obvious that their Psyops worked in 2016, it’s hard to argue that Russia’s system is superior to our right now. Russia is deeply corrupt, incompetent, and basically a 3rd tier economy or lesser. Italy tosses out more GDP than Russia.

China is a far better case for your thesis. They’re doing much better economically and the government is both totalitarian and largely accepted by the populace. This situation is also very new, since they accepted open markets at least, and it will be interesting to see how stable it really is.
Pretty much the TL;DR of my point ;)
Yu-Gi-Oh is more than a card game. It's fun and the way card effects can be chained together is a lot like programming in the corewars/redcode sort of way.

I'm running openwrt on an R7800 and so far had no issues. But that's just the router, you'll still need a modem.
Well in this you get into a circular argument, because if you did include Linux then you would need to verify every line of code that is being used. Which is why you would never use linux and why it wouldn't be included.

*This is in reference to DAL A software. DAL D might be able to run linux.

If diversity advocates cared about diversity they'd attack all gender disparities with equal vigour because it'd be the disparity itself they care about

Yeah, to me this makes no sense. It's like saying that if you care about infant hungriness, you have to help with equal vigor both those starving in war-ridden areas and those in wealthy neighborhoods whose parents occasionally forget to give lunch money. Or that if you care about forest fires, you give the same number of fire engines to California and to Delaware.

In my opinion, if you care about a problem, you dedicate more resources to where its effects are more pronounced.
It would be great to try the algorithm out if they ever release the code. I've made molds through "traditional" CAD software like Solidworks and the process takes about 30 min. It works pretty well for the typical stuff but I have not tried it with something with a lot of organics shapes like a figurine. The biggest downside about silicone casting though is that its super messy. The costs adds up too since you either need a small vacuum chamber for the silicone or you have to buy the more expensive variant with platinum in it.

Side note: If any one is looking for a lowcost (~$500) "SLA" (it's really UV DLP) printer, you can go for the Anycubic Photon[1]. It should be good enough to make a master pattern without the visible layer lines. A caveat though, the resin based prints are super messy and is a pain to use.

Show HN: Indie Solver – Black-Box Optimization as a Service
Thanks Dave! I share many of the sentiments in your writeup, especially about existing tutorials. Admittedly, I have been impressed by the quality of a few of the tutorials that others have suggested here. Will let you know if I think of anything!
that's a month old; has the compromise been going on that long?

i guess so...
Yes, although some of the theories about Neanderthal extinction involve climate change, not intelligence.

The point is that our ancestors up until 10,000 years ago would make us look like complete and utter wimps, which contradicts your “most people were inactive” premise.

And based on what happens to a modern human even with survival gear who gets lost in the wilderness, typically death within a week or two sans rescue, I genuinely doubt that modern humans would adapt quickly enough to a hunter gatherer world.

GDPR does sem like a good (albeit small) step of trend reversal, attempting to limit the power of data accumulators for the general good.

In contrast, a not so good step is the recent partisan calls by Steve Bannon, Alex Jones, Laura Ingram, etc. to nationalize Google, Facebook, etc. because "the results are rigged against Trump", attempting to seize the power in service of a particular party currently with authoritarian tendencies, just as TFA warned. That said, I doubt this will get far soon.
This is always my pet peeve. If there's a car coming, and I'm trying to cross, I can see there's a car coming. Simple. But if there's 10 cars coming, and most of them have their lights on - the one that doesn't looks like a gap.

I don't care if you need your lights on or not. If >50% of traffic have their lights on, I need your lights on too.
China's situation is like someone trying to dilute acid with water: put in a few drops of freedom, wait for the fizzing to subside, put in a few more, all while hoping to avoid an explosion.

China is accepted by the Han populace. The extremely non-Han parts (Tibet, Xinjiang) are having it imposed on them at gunpoint.
It’s very hard to convince people to keep them in that limited scope.
To put it simply, in a "work and life balance" Berlin is inevitably more about life than about work. And if your personal growth depends on the people you are surrounded by, it might not always be the best place to live in.

>Antifa activists used clubs and dyed liquids against the white supremacists in Charlottesville and caused property damage. In one incident, an apparent antifa supporter punched white supremacist Richard Spencer in the face as he was giving an impromptu street interview and on another occasion, in Berkeley, it was reported that some threw Molotov cocktails."

Is it really extremism to punch white supremacists/literal Nazi's though?
The difference being that setting up NS HA, then failing over to the secondary and rebooting in turns is a lot easier than doing the equivalent on a plane. So even considering the operational requirements are the same (no time to reboot but if you don't, people die), you still have a lot more flexibility.

The problem with an airplane is that by the time you find such an issue it becomes prohibitively expensive to fix if an "architecture" change is required. This is why workarounds are provided instead.
For many people, and myself, telling yourself to think of something is a good way to make your mind blank.
Great step forward IF the Open Access fee is rationalized. Take for example, Nature Communications - which only publishes OA. The OA fee for one article is €3,850! [0]. Why should tax payers pay two times - to conduct the research, to access the research - to access the research which they fund? Specially, when most of the work is done by the researchers themselves. And before someone talks about journal costs etc. I have been a reviewer for different journals and conferences for many years now. I haven't received a single penny for peer reviews. I highly doubt hosting a PDF on a server takes € 3,850.

You can build your own router with inexpensive hardware and run pfsense on it. You can find many guides for that online.

Otherwise, get an edgerouter.
Wait, so they don't turn off the planes when not in use?
I can confirm I know more and likely am stronger than every hunter gatherer.

Hunter gatherers didnt know what chemicals to mix to create a battery, or use that battery to power magnets, and that if you power them in the correct order you can spin things, and with spinning, you have our modern way of moving energy.

I also lift weights, likely unbelievable weights that couldnt be sustained for a hunter gatherer due to lack of food.

Size doesnt matter as much as environment. I have an abundance of food and information, while this was scarce 10,000 years a go.
I just last weekend retired a pair of Asus RT-AC66U routers/access points. They ran stable for years on Tomato (version tomato-RT-AC66U_AT-RT-AC6x-3.4-140-AIO-64K.trx) and I think all the hardware revisions work, but confirm that yourself.

I retired them mostly because the Ubiquiti management is much easier and that hardware also affordable (though the software is not open, so not a fit for your use case).
98.6 Degrees Is a Normal Body Temperature, Right? Not Quite
Your CS term for parametric is not quite 1 to 1 with statistic usage for parametric.

Also what you're describing is very similar to Bayesian statistic.

> But more importantly, LSTMs and neural networks are very much parametric - their success come from the advances in computing and optimization that have enabled estimating these parameters in very complicated model structures.

Which for statistician is basically blackbox and nonparametric since you have no idea what the distribution is dude and there is no assumption of a distribution. Hence nonparametric statistic which is the answer to your question you've asked for.
