Going through a company like MOSIS is the best bet for university research. You get access to modern processes and reduced cost by sharing a wafer. Running your own out of date fab is dumb and expensive. One of the cheapest processes they have is ON Semi 0.5um. That is the one my school offered for free to students taking a CMOS layout class for undergrads. After the final project was turned in, the professor would off anyone with a working design the chance to get their layout made. You'd have to write a report on how well the run went (for MOSIS, the school didn't care since this was well after the semester was over).
Close. Every time they improve the measurement, the effect decreases. Realistically, this is exactly what you would expect for a device that does not actually work.
It very comprehensive, having a section on every category of food (Dairy, eggs, meat, edible plants, fruit, etc.), the chemistry involved in cooking or preparing said foodstuff, tables of information.

There is a lot of lore behind cooking, people don't always know why they do particular steps in a recipe, that's just how they were taught. It's nice to break down the fundamentals and tweak recipes with that better understanding.

For example, understanding what an emulsion is you can have a better understanding on why hollandaise sauce or mayonnaise breaks, also what acids one can replace when you don't have what a recipe calls for.

Cooking is a practice that I do several times a day, knowing the chemistry behind what I'm doing allows me more flexibility in the tools I use and the process I take.

We have a problem with TB. We have issues with other disease coming in too and don’t seem to screen for them, which we should.

We do pay assloads. For some reason we subsidise the films that come here while they exploit their workers and get exemption from NZ laws. Our homegrown hero Peter Jackson had a role in that.

Your level of skepticism about NZ clearly indicates you belong here. Come back!

I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I had to go look up what an article was to refresh my brain :)
Sorry, we are working on a website - the project is quite mature (more than 10 years), but it was mostly for internal use. We just recently decided to make it public, which is not always easy to do. So we have a lot to do with documentation, etc.

Regarding your question -- there is no limitation on number of rules. But, I should say the definition of "number of rules" may be tricky. I don't see any reason to have a lot of high level rules -- i.e. annotators and asserts -- in most cases the number of annotators will be N time bigger than number of entity classes, or categories (in case of categorization task). On the other hand, there may be much more low-level rules (i.e. patterns and predicates used to form the high level rules).

Also, the built-in dawg dictionaries may help a lot - these dictionaries may handle millions of entries, behave same as other matchers (i.e. they can be used in same way as other patterns and regex matchers used), and work way faster than patterns. For instance, in RL3 you can define pattern \<{PERSON_FIRSTNAME},?\s{PERSON_LASTNAME}\> (which matches first name followed by optional comma followed by space and last name) where {PERSON_FIRSTNAME} and {PERSON_LASTNAME} are dictionaries..
That is incorrect as I have described here:

If you want to run a software company or lead a product, the things you learn in an MBA program are very worthwhile: how to measure clients' worth to a company, how to put together a cash flow statement, how to think like "marketing people", business applications of your product (e.g. I learned several new industries that would benefit from my product).

Outside of your specific job, one item I fall back on constantly is financial analysis. For example, you can say Tesla is a great company, if you learn how to read a cash flow statement and net income report you would see otherwise.
The name of the prop actually wasn't confusing.

Initially it was called "California Marriage Protection Act", which is pretty common for anti-gay-marriage acts.

Later it was called "Eliminate Rights of Same Sex Couples to Marry". Which is 100% obvious.

Only people who lazily called it the "gay marriage prop" were confused.

AI Security – Neural Network Backdoors
Well, there's pretty good controlled experimental evidence that lack of sleep causes impulsivity. But obviously causality works the other way too and this study doesn't help us know how much of these effects would go away if, say, high school start times were pushed back and how much would persist which is what we're really interested in.
It's pretty hard to definitively succeed. The threat is not just the HEVC companies that aren't in AOMedia; unknown unknowns are a factor too.

Like submarine patents: patent applicants can intentionally delay the issuance/publication (keep amending their application for example), and because the initial filing date is all that matters, they still get to use that patent to go after others.

And the whole situation is complicated enough that I wouldn't be shocked if there are published patents where legal review decided it wasn't a threat (that it doesn't apply to AV1) but someone sues anyway, or review simply didn't consider the key patent/claim at all.

Some things AV1 has going for it:

- Some techniques are already in use out there (like in VP9), are patented by AOMedia members, or are essentially just bumping some numbers to take advantage of stronger hardware (prediction directions, reference frames you can use). So those parts seem less likely to see patent claims, either because they may not be patentable or because we'd've seen it in someone suing over VP9 or such.

- There is a legal defense fund. And, more informally, there are large companies to which it's worth a lot to keep the codec as unencumbered as possible.

- AOMedia members are allowed to use their patents against entities filing patent suits, which might discourage cos. that actually have products (as opposed to pure patent holding companies) from suing, or strengthen the AOMedia member's position in negotiating for a settlement etc. (I wonder whether this part is structured to also allow retaliation when a company e.g. sells their patents to hostile pools or holding companies.)

I'm sure there will be threats and suits (the system just seems to make it inevitable someone will try to profit off this) and it might be someone in one of the HEVC pools doing it in hopes they can help HEVC win. But seems possible AOMedia could win or settle any essential ones (things core to the codec rather than just specific implementation techniques).

If the whole thing failed catastrophically--a lawsuit covering all approaches to implementing some essential codec feature succeeded--AV1 would still likely end up much less expensive and encumbered than HEVC, which of course didn't even try to avoid patents. I also wonder if AOMedia might get to work on a workaround (like, define a codec or profile that's more or less AV1 with the specific feature from the lawsuit disabled, removed or replaced). That could obviously be hugely expensive depending on things like compatibility with existing HW/SW, but could still work out cheaper than royalties or whatever.
It sure was. I forget what brand my first CD Burner was (wanna say HP) but it was very susceptible to skips from shaking which would ruin the burn (around 98 or so). It was an old house with old floors and old furniture. So the CD burning procedure was to start the burn, gently tip toe out of the office, and close the door. Perhaps it was excessive but ruining a $10-20 cd wasn't exactly a fun thought for a kid on a budget.

Hi Joe.

This answer is a bit rambly, but I think my subconscious has a point to make, and I'm trying to tease it out.

This may come across the wrong way, but: which poor people? Your town, your country, or your whole planet?

I'm not an expert, but my hunch is if you start with a very local project (depending on where you live, it shouldn't be hard to find your local poverty), you'll get the answers you need - and I think if you're going to make a big impact, it will grow from that.

When I lived in L.A., young-me sat down with someone I thought was homeless - a panhandling gent sitting on some steps in Hollywood - we talked, about a bunch of things, he told me about his routine. Said he made about 30 bucks at night at that spot - also turned out he had a home, so I'd made an incorrect assumption.

A lot of my friends thought it was pretty weird that I would engage with the guy. Guess they had bad experiences with similar situations? I don't know. I doubt it; I suspect people were afraid. But what do you have to lose?

Talk to some of the people you're looking to help. A few small things will stand out in your mind - scale those.

I'm jumping the gun here, but if your mind's reaction is that that's not 'global' enough - I don't think anything grows to be a global force without a solid kernel, and that should be able to succeed at a small scale.

For what it's worth, that's my take.

Best of luck.
> being hassled at the border has always been a risk. Before it was terrorism, it was drugs, or just the change in culture.

Right, I'm aware of this, and borders in general suck. I've had a fair few bizarre experiences at borders, some of them funny (like the Lebanese border guard who insisted on speaking Spanish to me) and some quite shitty (lookin at you, Israel). But to me, the above story is quite the outlier in terms of sheer hostility, from a country that I didn't think of as being particularly draconian at the border.
>it really stinks on both sides

I disagree. I think that a there has been a massive amount of misplaced trust in the random inbound calls and caller ID. We should have cleaned it up a long time ago. Now that there is widespread abuse of it, maybe there will finally be some security measures put in place.

You’re not required to do their job for them, so just entering the password when they ask you to and don’t mention that there are multiple partitions in there and you’re good to go. If they look carefully and notice the other partition (which you’re not even hiding) you’re back to the original problem of course.

That would actually be a very good idea to cut down on number spoofing.
If your definition of a good license is "the terms are as unrestrictive as possible" why not release all software into the public domain?

There's legitimate arguments to be made for more restrictive licenses, even if I don't agree with them all the time.
As someone who grew up in a "nothing to to hide - nothing to fear" environment this is what I realized as I grew older as well.

Another more recent example: I guess those who opposed Erdogan a few years ago aren't too comfortable now.

Short summary: even if you have reason to trust the police department to not abuse your data (I like the local police around here), do you also:

- trust everyone of them not to snoop around?

- trust every contractor and sysadmin now and in the future?

- In a time where giant data leaks occurs multiple times a year, do you trust authorities to always be patched and vigilant?

- all this is before we start talking about 3 letter agency stuff, neighboring nations that have a bad habit of invading others etc.

Edit: fixed a number of spelling mistakes etc.
That is not an accurate representation of his case. He's had a mixed record in court so far, and is likely to win on some points in the end.
I love the idea and I've worked on similar stuff (although not in Clojure or Datomic) multiple times[1], however never finishing anything.

The problem is that I don't know Clojure or Datomic, so I don't know how to edit the app. It seems too complicated to learn.

If you read the article, a lot of the decline is from international applicants. Reading other articles, the drop is primarily about visa concerns for post-MBA employment in the US, and who can blame them? My international classmates had a hell of a time getting work authorization even before our current political situation. This is WSJ clickbait, more or less, and you see why they do this because this topic always rouses the attention of the HN crowd :)
You can have a private insurance system on top of a tax-subsidized public one that provides a baseline.

Or we could try a public option, for starters. I bet that would drive prices down significantly already, simply by virtue of being large enough to negotiate them down.
The choice makes no difference to who can use this version of this software, but copyleft protects users from future derivatives getting locked away in exchange for forbidding proprietary derivatives altogether.

In the case of popularising a video codec the rise of some proprietary derivative seems an acceptable risk but for some random program what's the upside?
Why is this about survival? My commute to work is 20 miles. I drive because it's convenient, quick, and practical. I would survive without a car. I could walk for 6+ hours, work for 8 hours (snacking while I work), and then walk another 6+ hours back home. Or I could pitch a tent in my office parking lot and just live out of it during the week. It would be shitty survival, but doable, right?

It's absolutely possible traveling without a smartphone. I've done it plenty of times before smartphones became a thing. But smartphones make it so much easier.

The basic policy of every political faction used to be an extremist position. Free markets were a radical idea (the Kings and Queens of Europe favoured mercantilism), readopting an interpretation of Greek democracy from 2500 years ago was a revolutionary idea and everything to do with political liberalism was definitely considered by the monarchy and aristocracy to be extreme.
Besides that, I will try to learn it later when I have more time.

Anecdote: was in software, went to top-10-ish MBA school, went back to software industry with higher salary and have not done very badly since. But was it higher than I would have been making in 2 years without going to school? Impossible to know. Is my subsequent trajectory steeper enough to make up for the costs? Impossible to know.

I do feel it’s nice to have that base business, accounting, finance, general management knowledge as a foundation to use to understand things, but is it $150k + $opportunity cost of 2 years worth of education? Not sure...
The server is only meant for enterprise deployments. It would be pretty hard to do this on a personal level because you need to apply for an enterprise account with Apple, and request a very specific push certificate option.
