NASA's Valkyrie, and Robonaut 2, in addition Fetch, and Baxter,a couple of industrial arms via ROS-i. I know that it's pretty horrid, but it's also the devil I know. This allows for rapid prototyping. In addition, the API hasn't changed much so I can walk away for months and come back and still use the robot. Several organizations support OSRF, but they're still just a couple of people. It's all open source so I've been able to document bugs and submit fixes. That being said, they're still robotics people doing a systems job, but I've failed so far in convincing systems people that robotics is the next mobile.
No, the original purpose of society is for its members to leverage each other to achieve more / be safer etc than as lone individuals.

Controlling access to sex was one of the ways societies found to achieve those goals.

For a simple example, communities with much laxer sex rules, found themselves frequently torn by relationship related feuds. Requiring (and punishing non-adherence) to sticking to some fixed husband/wife is what they found to prevent (not absolutely solve) such issues. They then invented religious and other justifications for the practice to normalize it further.

Certain kinds of marital arrangement also helped keep money in the same extended family, etc. Different such goals evolved different strategies to achieve them.
Open Data portals powered by OpenDataSoft let you see/sort/filter/visualize data in your browser.
You can access the data via API (including sorting/filtering) or download static files (CSV/JSON/XLS etc.).

I haven't seen many other platforms offer the same kind of functionality.

e.g This one is a dataset of CCTVs across Leicester. You can easily see all of the columns, sort data around, display a chart of camera types, see their location on a map etc.

Not just that, the AI also can't recognise fair use.

The only legitimate (read: non-overbearing, not publishing individual creators by erring on the side of registered rights holders) implementation of this process would be if the registered rights holders were merely notified (with an easy option of forcing a takedown or demonetization) of every potentially infringing upload but the uploads themselves were not demonetized or otherwise punished.

Automated content filters will always be more restrictive than the letter of the law if they have to make automated judgments and the publishing is time sensitive.

That said, Content ID basically allows rights holders to tap all the power of a DMCA takedown without the legal risk of committing a felony by filing an illegitimate claim.
In that case Google should be free to not index his page, or at least not show it to users who Google know are not interested in downloading it.

Yep there is experimental support for native windows containers. (Not sure it it's still experimental as things move really fast in this space)

As I remember you couldn't have windows and linux containers running at the same time so you needed to flip a switch in the docker config to chose one.

I general I'm a linux guy but it would be really cool if they can get to a point in which you can run both windows and linux containers at the same time.

If you're meaning trying to create a safety-related or safety-critical system then the particular set of libraries you use is one very small part of the problem.

The system design itself is examined as well as how it is implemented. The examiners will want to see proof that your system fails in predictable and deterministic ways suitable for their usage.

Also systems dealing with the motion-control typically require hard-real-time response so you would not be running this on your average Linux system either.

You need to be prepared to have your code and system design examined in great depth, a very long and expensive process generally.

Pigs are smart and can live to be around 15 to 20 years old, and by all accounts are as smart or smarter than whales.

I don't see how the expected lifespan of a single individual is a determining factor in the moral calculus of what humans should or shouldn't kill.

Why isn't it morally equivalent to kill 10 pigs who could have collectively lived to be 200 years old for bacon and killing one whale who could have lived to be 200?

ROS is not a suitable tool at all. Functional safety is a totally different beast and SW is only a small part of it.

Don't even think about implementing functional safety on your own without a few years of practical safety experience. Even if you get your hands on all the required hardware parts, you will need to spend a lot of time on making sure you tick all the boxes in relevant standards and convincing notified bodies you did your homework. Don't try to do this on your own, hire an experienced professional right from the start of any project which might touch on functional safety.

The Ethics of Consciousness Hunting
I spoke Mikael Arguedas at the 2018 French ROS days (JONAROS) where he gave a presentation about ROS 2 (talks are available online IIRC, in French). During his presentation; he said that most of ROS 1 was engineered before any of today's well known frameworks were available , hence the lot of custom tools. That has driven a major part of ROS 2's design (especially the use of DDS).

Otherwise, I have been personally using ROS for building robots for the French (and European) robot championship (see https://twitter.com/AIGRIS_Birds). It works pretty well, it is convenient, easy to learn and provide some nice tooling (bagging for replaying messages, simulation with Gazebo...).

It is the de facto standard for robotics middleware for scientific projects. It not widely used by industrials because of some shortcomings even if initiatives like ROS Industrial and ROS 2 will likely improve things.
And, I mean, just think about all the spilt beans and grounds. Gonna need a tornado to clean that up.
I think it is worth looking for the rational (that is to say, non-moralistic) cause. The fact the gays are pressured to act straight across in nearly every society in such similar and intense ways indicates that there's likely a common cause.

e.g. If one culture hates dogs and kills them on sight, you might say that culture has a prejudice against dogs. If 95% of cultures hated dogs and killed them on sight, you should start to think there is a deeper reason for that (especially considering how useful dogs can be).

In the case of gay-shaming, the obvious common cause is evolutionary: It's people trying to have more grandkids.

If your kid is gay, and decides to go off and have gay sex for the rest of his/her life, he/she won't reproduce. Your gene line ends.

However, if you pressure/shame/tyrannize your gay kid into a reproductive relationship, your genes replicate into grandkids (who likely won't be gay themselves). Your gene line continues.

This also applies to brothers, sisters, and other kin. The reproductive benefit of pressuring a gay relative to act straight is comparable to saving them from death, since the outcome of 'acting gay' and 'dead' is evolutionarily similar. (Of course a living gay relative can help other relatives raise their kids, so it's not identical to being dead. Some have argued that the "helpful gay uncle" effect would counteract the evolutionary cost of homosexuality. But the math doesn't work; a childless relative isn't so much more helpful than a relative with kids that deliberately childless individuals replicate their genes better than ones who have their own kids.) This explains why the pressure to act straight is so strong and vicious - it comes from the same place as the pressure to not die.

So, given a population of people, some who have a gene that makes them pressure gay kids to act straight, and some who don't, over time the pressuring gene will spread through the population. And here we are.

And just to ward off the reflexive moralizing and personal attacks: There's no moral content to our evolutionary history, any more than there's moral content to a lion eating a baby gazelle alive. Please don't fall for the naturalistic fallacy and start attacking as though I'm saying natural equals good. Lots of things that are natural are not good. Understanding the world requires us to be able to separate rational understanding what is, from a moral judgment of what we should do. We should be adult enough here to make that distinction.

Aditya, he put his email address in the posting I would contact him there rather than leaving this message here. I also wouldn't advise applying for a post by asking if you are qualified, it's better to send a message explaining why you think you are qualified. When I get messages asking if someone is qualified I immediately ignore them because either they aren't going to be qualified or they haven't even done the research to figure it out themselves which is a big red flag.

Ah yes, the famous strategy for solving all problems: Hiding them, because if no one notices them anymore, they are not problems anymore.
> What does that even mean? They are free countries. No one forced India to hold onto that law. No one forces other countries to hold onto colonial era laws. If they don't change it that's their choice, their decision and their problem in the end. Not that of some long gone boogeyman.

Not so easy. Once you have a law in place you have vested interests who want to oppose any changes to the law. Either you need a dictatorship to make any changes you desire or respect democratic principles. You can't have both. Once a law was codified, albeit in a previous era, that itself becomes an excuse for vested interests to latch onto and demand that the law continue to be in place.

In my opinion, no social norms should be codified as laws as societies change and so do people. That creates more harm than good. This should serve as a lesson to all that laws should be generic in nature and not targeted towards one community/religion/caste/creed (be it either as a benefit or otherwise). This is again a by-product of Colonialism as British crown used personal laws to keep the country divided. Hopefully India fixes that next by codifying the Uniform Civil Code[1].

>The solution can't just be "there are more people moderating," which translates to: the network is much more expensive to run. But that abstraction is the solution to everything in a federated system: spread out power so it isn't corruptible.

Have you thought about the possibility that this is exactly what at least some people actually want? Reddit is a great example of a platform that has moderators basically working in a federated way and has been a huge commercial success. By having that commercial success users are now subject to negative market forces that erode the character of the platform because at the end it's not actually federated but the owners simply didn't mess much with it for a while. Mastodon has taken a huge step towards making sure that these market forces can't invade and dominate the platform because Mastodon devs don't actually have the same control that the owners of Reddit do. In other words I don't see why we need to judge Mastodon's success based on it's size but based on it's viability as a platform which is already pretty decent. And each Mastodon instance is free to solve it's own funding issues so I don't see how the fact that there is no central advertising and the "cost" of moderation is higher affects it. So the usual success rating of how many users you have does not apply directly on Mastodon.

>I can respect that Mastodon is philosophically consistent: if you want to really control your communications, you need to put in the effort. I hope to be wrong about this, but people simply to not want to put this much effort into online communities. If they did we wouldn't have FB, IG and Twitter already.

There is a fairly large number of people who put considerable hours moderating fb groups for no profit. The same goes for reddit moderators. Every one of them could potentially launch or help moderate a Mastodon instance( especially a topic-specific one). So the number of people caring required is much smaller than you might think. Besides if your point is that people don't want this control, let's remove blocks/mutes and see the chaos unfold.
