There are 2 reasons to buy a Tesla - electric power, and self-driving capability.

If I don't get full self-driving, I can get a Jaguar, a Hyundai or a Nissan Leaf. These are cheaper or have more options and better return for your dollar. On the configurator, it gives me $58.4K with the base motor

IMO, this is such an underrated benefit of remote work. Pushing people towards chat tools, email, and digital drawing tools automatically documents everything. No more wondering what did Joe say in the meeting 3 weeks ago, now I just search my email and/or chat.

Next on my list to look for is a video chat plugin that will transcribe the entire meeting and email everyone afterwards.

Indeed, the reason I don't consider moving to Canada is that the areas where I'd like to live are too expensive and salaries too low for the high cost of living, mostly housing (I already can't purchase a house where I live but at least I can hope to, I'd be priced out even worse in Canada).
You're saying the brain drain has reversed and now there are more Americans going to Canada than vice versa?

Ha! Pump your breaks tiger; no one is accusing you of racism, people are makimg the observation that some could make that interpretation, amd such interpretations have a marked history in America.

Before those two, more than a decade ago, Google also had OpenSocial, with MySpace and others. It was an interesting period of time, if you were there. The project was one of the "failures" that soured Google on having open standards at all costs.
Where are these Communities, exactly?
Other the last 20 years, I have seen multiple attempts to commercially take advantage of clockless logic, they all disappeared.
This happens all the time. It happened to my dad, who was healthy and exercised regularly. After a bike ride he collapsed and died.

Often there are warnings, like arythmias which I guess can be signs the electrical functions aren't great. Those sorts of congenital defects are hard to detect, acknowledge and treat seriously as a condition.

That would certainly jive with the discussions around disabling HT by the OpenBSD community.

Looks like they could just be trying to brute force the loss of speculative execution simply by augmenting the number of cores.
Unfortunately, it has. The process is now more opaque, and it’s taking longer to get an approval. The number of requests for evidence has increased by close to 40%. There seems to be a deliberate attempt to frustrate legal immigrants out of the US, or at least, it feels like it. This is anecdotal, but I personally know 4 families that threw in the towel and moved to Canada. So, yes, in terms of policy, nothing’s changed, but they have increased the overall level of frustration.

On top of that, this has scared off a lot of companies from even looking at H1-Bs while hiring.
Yeah, games is fine. So it some sort of demo (in the demo scene sense), or video player interface, honestly.

But I saw far to many flash websites in the past, because sometimes people really just want a powerpoint presentation for a website because they have a "vision", and usability is a foreign concept.

I think it's highly likely some service like Squarespace will deploy sites using something like this, because it both lets them more finely control some aspects and features, as well as make it harder for people to move. All marketed under "website plagiarism protection" or something similar. "Want to stop scraping? Just use this middleware package..."
In the past, this was a more common thing. Disease, injury, and war killed a lot more people than they do today. I wonder if people did cherish relationships more then than they do now.

What's really striking about this to me is that Google didn't disclose the security vulnerability. Google is trying to cover it up by moving the ball from 'there was a breach' to 'we're shutting down G+'. This is why I'm super hesitant to be a Google fanboy. Facebook may have my social media info, but Google has my emails, all of my mobile data, access to a bunch of my assets through Google Domains, GCE etc. Scary stuff.
> Nobody is using it.

For a definition of nobody that includes hundreds of millions of active users. Ie, more people than you will ever meet in your lifetime, possibly more than all the people those people will meet in their lifetimes.

No doubt this is a failure for Google.

For comparison, Bing turns over only a twentieth of Google's 60B per year.

Point and laugh if you like, but I'd be happy with considerably less than three billion a year.
Oh, come on! It's decision theory, plain and simple. As an officer, I have two options: (1) shoot first, (2) talk to the victim. The cost in case (1) is ZERO (well, actually a couple bullets...) and in case (2) it is somewhat higher, because I run a small risk of dying on duty. Since \epsilon > zero, I shoot until the mag is empty, then empty the spare mag, too.

The values in this line of reasoning change depending on whether the victim has a nuclear bomb, a gun, a knife, bare hands, or nothing at all. The conclusion does not. Any small risk is still bigger than no risk.

It is obvious to me, that reducing the cost to the officer who chooses option (2), by taking guns away from citizens, does not work, because the cost won't become negative. Instead, the cost in case (1) has to be increased, and that means prosecuting trigger happy cops as the murderers they are.
>Probably the worst decision made in this whole mess was trying to unify the account model.

Trying it at all after realizing it was not going to be complete. I think the unified account was an all-or-nothing strategy, and they met with early resistance from every dedicated user silo on all of their previously very separate products.

But instead of launching some big unified account thing to really force Google+, they did a kind of half-assed thing. Some accounts migrated and auto-signed up, there were some weird account-links, people had multiple accounts (youtube, gmail) etc etc. They backed out, pandered, etc. It was an absolute shit-show from the perspective of a power user.

If someone would have had the prescience to say "our products are too silod for a successful merger" at the onset, and then either spent 5 years slowly breaking down those silos FIRST, or just tearing the walls down AT ALL, it might have worked.
We gave up the idea of pseudonymity on social networks just so Google could lose money on a product that it aggressively attempted to force the pseudonymous users of its other products to use. Actually pretty sad.
I hire C# developers, and most of candidates, even with a couple of years of experience, have no idea about how stack works.

If the "string" b"file" does not mean the ASCII string "file", but rather is supposed to be interpreted as a byte array (equivalent to just bytes in memory with no context of the individual array members being characters), then my original point still stands: such a comparison shouldn't be allowed at all and an error should be raised. To simply return False indicates that the comparison is valid with regard to the string types, but the comparison simply returned False because the two strings were not equal.

I thought Python was strongly-typed ? Am I incorrect in this regard ?
it depends. Are you raising the chicken for egg or meat? Egg is about sustainability... meat is about growth (very fast)...

To what extent may we apply this principle? Was the promise of forty acres and a mule to formerly enslaved black farmers in the U.S. too "far"? Was the actual result of some land redistribution and the Freedmen's Bureau providing supplies and opportunities to freed slaves too far? Maybe you believe this. If not, could we establish where the threshold is? That is, what's the volume of harm-over-time a group would drop below before being disqualified for any positive rights?
Having literally lost a close loved one in the last few hours this post really helped. Thank you.
Interesting article. I feel like I had a problem with gaming, but I didn't necessarily have an addiction. When I got an Xbox 360 (and by extension Xbox live), I was able to hangout with my friends without going to their house. Even when they weren't playing, it was because I made friends and connections to people all over. Towards the end of my Xbox Live days, I mostly played without my "IRL" friends.

Now, I rarely game alone, but I play games with my friends in person (Fortnite, Mario Party, Mario Kart, Smash etc.). I think for me, gaming was a substitute for social interaction. Most of my interaction is in person now, so gaming has fallen by the wayside.
Unfortunately, the core business of Facebook, Twitter, and Google (driving engagement) is probably contributing to tearing the US apart politically. It's not just individual projects, it's at the very core of what they are. I don't see a happy ending here. I assume that the same thing is happening in other countries.
This logic is bizarre to me. He can’t consent to being fed, clothed or having his diaper changed either. I imagine she likely still does all three.

From the comments by user Zepan:

Hi, thanks for your report !
I’m zepan, the shopkeeper of Sipeed Tech. Taobao shop, Sipeed M1 is our first AI moulde ,and the second RISC-V module.

I need correct some mistake in your article, and supplement some information.

1. The chip name is K210, not K201; and it is RV64GC.

2. It have 8MB high speed SRAM, not 6MB.

3. There are 5.9MB SRAM can be used for convolutional neural network acceleration, so, it is possible to run small model like tiny-yolo v2,MobileNet, as you see in face detection routine video.

4. It isn’t preoder mode before 10.7, but it is too popular that it is sold out in 10.7, and I change it to preorder mode.

More information:

1. It can be up to 800MHz if you want, and give you more than 0.5TOPS, 240FPS detection speed @ QVGA.

2. It is low power consume, unlike other ARM board; It only consume 0.35W when running face detection routine.

3. Its IO speed in simple test is up to 300MHz

4. It is possible to run openwrt on it as it have MMU, but too tight in ram.

5. We’re adding micropython to the board, and soon you can simply run python on it, you know python is the best lang for DL.

6. We also have Mic Array board, and another fancy board in development.

7. We have best price for those solution, Sipeed M1 module in $6, M1w(with wifi) in $7.5, the simple dev board with LCD, 2M pixel Camera, I2S MIC, Speaker PA, on board downloader, in $15.

8. We have model shop soon, you can sell your model on our online modelshop.

That's it so far as I know. If you are, for example, a Japanese or German national then naturalizing as a US citizen may be an issue for your current citizenship. (Germany will likely grant you permission to naturalize; Japan will not.)

If you are already a green card holder, you are already subject to the tax and other reporting requirements like a US citizen so the only real difference from the US perspective is you can't vote and aren't guaranteed to be able to cross the US border. It's that last bit that most people really want.
Unrelated to OP but I ditched computer games and do think that there is no healthy level. It's a lot like marijuana today. We're way past pong and some ditch weed. These are very potent products engineered to flood your senses and highly addictive.

I'm giving the creators here the benefit of the doubt that this is just a side effect of trying to create great experiences for their users. Not so with casual free2play games which are clearly designed to drain your wallet.

Either way, they don't really enrich your life, except for a handful of indie productions they're not art like movies, they're the equivalent of capeshit but designed to make you watch it over and over again. I would like the ten thousand hours spent playing Counter-Strike back now.
Google+ sunsetting is sad news, as I've actually used it fairly actively. (and I have a few dozens of people I interact regularly who I wouldn't have known if not from G+!)

It somewhat acted like a better version of Twitter for me, where I can write a lot more on the post, and actually engage a meaningful discussion with people.

I don't know, even with relaxed character counts on Twitter that it will accommodate same use cases, and I don't like to use Facebook for this purpose as I really don't want introduce a total stranger as my friend...

Some Boston University researchers have taken a recent look at structural racism across the US, and while that's not everything, it's at least a portion. They actually found that NC is one of the lesser structurally racist states.

Their analysis checks out with my memory of recent events, with IL, WI, VA, and MO ranking very highly racist.

Noted, and this is also something where I have a lot of first hand experience. Mental illness can be a valid excuse when someone is suffering from delusions but that doesn't seem to be the case here.
People are finally becoming dis-enchanted with Facebook. Quick, kill Google+!

As opposed to trying to take advantage of the opportunity and improve it -- fixing the bork-headed management design shoved onto it prior to external launch.

Facebook has shown how it's failing its users. Google has the opportunity to make a big show and potentially market share gain by doing the opposite. But, nope.

Instead, 'our market share is corporate'.

Which is fine. But, it tells you a lot about where Google has been going.

(And, if I were corporate Worldmerica, I'd be hesitant about investing too much good will in and dependence upon +.)

As an individual Google user, unfortunately I have little hope that this unwinding will also back out other changes co-morbid with the + deployment, such as the account "unification" that allows a single "mistake" to lock you out of everything. And a single Google "mistake" in execution to haunt you across all their properties.

I'm in the process of exiting Facebook, except for a mostly placeholder presence. A lot of my friends don't have the wherewithal to set up and maintain privately implemented social presences. But, we won't be switching to +, I guess.

Maybe an old-fashioned bulletin board -- with otherwise unlinked pseudonyms -- will do. Back to the Future...

As I think about this, maybe there is a strongly implied message in this. Assuming parts of Google still emit good will. Namely, that, these days, NO commercial network can escape the pressures -- governmental as well as commercial -- to compromise their users.

We aren't making it, because we can no longer do so honestly and securely.

An interesting alternative perspective.

(And, we're even less inclined than Mark and Co., to try to ride herd on all the nut jobs out there.)
I suppose my comments from yesterdays thread about "Cheap places to live with a good intellectual atmosphere" is relevant:

I did the math for Toronto(which is more expensive than Montreal, and about the same as Vancouver).

For a typical software engineer, taxes take away 25% of gross pay in Ontario while it's over 30% in California and New York. Cost of living is much less(by 30-40% if you rent) in Toronto compared to Cali/New York. Of course, you will also earn 40% less in USD. So it about evens out. The site Hired.com came to similar conclusions that I've attached in an image below [2]

To go into more detail, According to numbeo[1] which crowdsources data, groceries and restaurants are 20% cheaper(adjusted for currency) in Toronto, but of course the salary is more than 20% lower. But the real kicker is the rent, and while Toronto rent is definitely increasing, it is nowhere close to NYC of Silicon Valley levels, and most sources do say you have to pay 50% more for an equivalent apartment in NYC.

Also according to my calculations from the data on numbeo, the equivalent of (pre-tax) $135,000 USD in NYC is $110,000 CAD in Toronto. It is of course easier to get 135k in NYC than 110k in Toronto, but the difference isn't nearly as big as the CAD/USD differences and wage gap makes it seem. And if you can get a job in the Waterloo-Kitchenner area, CoL of course plummets. Freelancing for clients in the US or working remotely also has great advantages.

If you're a US citizen, I don't think Canada or Toronto is enticing enough to drag you away - especially with places like Seattle, Austin and Colorado being better than SV and NYC in terms of Salary:CoL. But if you're not, Canada is comfortably the second best company to be a software engineer in, and the expected expansion of Amazon, Google and Microsoft in Toronto is likely to create a lot more high paying jobs and new startups in the coming years, especially with the US's anti-immigration stance basically making it impossible for Indians and the Chinese to get permanent residency.

The excellent universities and industry leading research in AI of UToronto and UWaterloo is a bonus if you're a student as well.

Google hid major Google+ security flaw that exposed users’ personal information
Well Toronto is definitely cooler than California.
Remember that pilots (mostly private) make mistakes and kill people, a lot, and they get a lot of goodwill from the authorities and the press for just wearing an uniform. And also they tend to lie on their drone encounters. No actual drone incident has even been reported where the owner of the drone was not violating an obvious rule (either line of sight or zoning), ie the rules don't need to change.

The other thing to consider is that drones are not more dangerous than birds, and they don't fly near airports and they don't form flocks.

Now there will be way more use for small UAV than manned aviation, so one logical thing to do is strictly separate the airspace (400ft- for drones 500ft+ for planes, increase 100ft every 5 years) by preventing manned aircrafts from flying low, in particular on near the coasts, just give them a few dedicated zones for airports and helicopter work, and open most of the rest to unmanned.
The definition of "results" and the criteria by which they are measured is the critical thing.

If you measure everyone in a company by how much money they directly make, then salespeople are the best, and everyone else is just drifting along on their wake. You could measure by functionality added, defects found, bugs fixed, projects completed, requirements gathered, and in each case, you assign merit to one class and not to others. Even if you have a reliable way to measure merit in one job family, how do you align the merit metrics across them?

I'm not sure that article is saying there were 500k users. It reads more like there 500k users had granted access to an app that had these permissions. It seems hard to imagine that a bug like this would be affected by whether a user is currently active or not.
