Nets used for practical machine learning today are too abstract to incorporate them in any meaningful way.
When you reduce the whole "neuron" to a weighted sum wrapped by some nonlinear function, in discrete timesteps, you've killed so much structure in the modelling it doesn't matter if the original information transfer path was supposed to be by membrane depolarization or by modifying cytoskeleton strands.

Arguably if there is a cytoskeleton mechanism for signalling or storage it's captured in some ways in changing the weights and evaluating the net, but not if it had any unique function beyond the abstraction which was already in place from the conventional view.

Studying other structures than the synapses and membranes is prudent, but Hameroff must be somewhere on the line between crackpot and intellectual poseur.
Use your time on some real science instead.

I know this may be a minority opinion among developers, but I'm ok with them trying to make money. And if the optimal way to do that is to ask 35% of the way through, then that's what they should do. I don't view that as a dark practice or bait and switch. I don't think there is an obligation to be super clear that there is a paid version.

It's something the owner should test, and see if it puts people off or if it converts better. Maybe it puts off 10% more people, but 30% more convert? Good on them for finding that out and optimizing accordingly.

We in the dev world expect way too much for free. Not that I complain when I find something for free, but people deserve to be compensated for their work also.

You're claiming the leadership of both parties are right wing, and elites inside and outside of government are right wing. Why, then, has the right wing lost so much ground on those issues I listed over the past 50-100 years?

Do you deny the issues I listed are issues where the right wing has lost ground in the past 50-100 years? If so, what do you even mean by "right wing"?

If not, then your position is that the elites have been losing on those positions for the past 50-100 years. Is that what you think?

I was half asleep when I wrote that, and totally missed that this is basically the "Subset Sum Problem" which is a known "thing" that a lot has been written about. See:

Yes, but it is a floor, not a ceiling. That's why I said "at least 1 car length".

I give as much space as I possibly can in following distance without impeding traffic, but not less than 1cl/10mph.

For example, if someone merges in front of me at approximately 3 car lengths at 65mph, I'm not going to slam on my brakes to increase the gap, then gun it back up to speed. That's dangerous. I'm going to get off the throttle, maybe brake a bit, and let the gap grow out before reapplying power, which gives me reasonable protection without endangering me too much. This is also much more predictable for cars behind me, which again is safer.

Not every situation is in perfect compliance with the rules. My goal is to maximize my safety, predictability, and compliance without causing traffic problems for others. That's why it's a rule of thumb. It's not written in stone, but it's a good guideline to start.

“Above the PNS, the operating system personalities run in the form of user-space servers that execute DOS, OS/2, and UNIX—with further intentions to support Microsoft Windows, OS/400, AIX, Taligent, and MacOS personalities.”

It’s been called one of the most expensive failures in operating system development.

Let's first see a prototype of such an AI for level 4+ autonomous driving on the majority of roads worldwide.

Until then it's premature and pointless since we don't know what the actual parameters will be.

That's probably more about good soundproofing for inside the train. But even in Tokyo I found the trains to be rather loud.

I ride one every morning, usually standing. It hasn't been a problem and I actually find our subway trains to be more prone to hard stops and starts. Intra-city buses rarely exceed 30 miles an hour anyway. I usually feel bad for the elderly, the injured, and the pregnant because it actually can be hard for them if they're stuck standing. But my ire is usually reserved for people who fail to give up their seats rather than the concept of riding a bus.

I'm sure we'll get there eventually, its just much more difficult to write for. Even in Westworld, the interactions were semi-scripted, with packaged "quests" along the way.

> new drivers should be required to learn to driv

This hypothetical situation is part of the learning process. That is the point. People __learn__ to drive without the assists. Not to all of a sudden revoke a current drivers' ability to use them.

This would help educate drivers in their formative stage in order to reduce the number of "bad drivers" on the road later.
It's interesting and informative that a lot of the commenters here have positive reviews or experiences with Wittgenstein.

I have not read any of his work but remember Paul Graham had a mixed take on Wittgenstein in his essay "How to Do Philosophy". Wittgenstein helped shake up philosophical thought, but his later focus on philosophy of language led his followers to turn philosophy into a field of jargon.

It can. It doesn't always. If the driver behind you is not particularly well aligned in the lane it can be difficult. Doubly so if it is a larger vehicle, relative to you. (I drive a small sedan, for example.)

Imagine you are centered in the leftmost lane. The driver behind you is tailgating and riding close to the dashed lane divider to your right. You'd like to see down that very lane divider, to see an oncoming motorcycle.

Your rear-view is going to be obstructed by the vehicle behind you. Particularly, the right side of the view, since the trailing vehicle is to the right of your center.

You side view is also going to be obstructed, as the trailing vehicle will obscure the LoS going straight back along the dashed line. I'm able to see the dashed line, but only for a small distance; often only 0.5 to 1 seconds of travel distance. This isn't really sufficient, safety wise.

Yes. The Animation Guild, IATSE Local 839,[1], which represents most of the major studio animators in California, has tried to organize game developers, at least the artists and animators.

That's not quite true. They intend to create a way of interfacing with ANY GC which would then allow them to make APIs that call in to the DOM. None of this would tie it directly to browsers. The whole intent is to keep it platform-agnostic, last I heard.

> An important constraint is that, while WebAssembly should allow tight integration with the Web, it should not bake in details or Web standards dependencies that prevent execution in a non-Web embedding. This suggests a design (called opaque reference types below) that hides the details of JavaScript and WebIDL behind Web-embedding-specific builtin modules. On the other hand, WebAssembly can define a set of native GC primitives that allowed portable GC code to be written regardless of the host environment.

Knowing nothing of Austin politics, if West Austin keeps holding up the spending for something they won't/don't even use, wouldn't it make sense to only charge the people who actually would use it? Either splitting West Austin into its own city so they're free from the taxes, or extending the CapMetro out to West Austin so they can benefit from it, or...?

It's easy to blame those guys for not seeing the benefit you would get from the extra tax, but if you put yourself in their shoes, they probably have more pressing issues that you yourself don't even have on your radar.
It looks really cool, but makes me want a real cube that you would be able to walk around and see every angle of your 3D model.
Because how healthy a food is can vary with gut biome and genetics, and those are hard to control for. Exercise is also big on genetics. Isolating with high confidence whether something is good or not requires large, international datasets with people who consistently report exact quantities of everything they eat and do for decades. Since the budget for that is very rare, the best we can do is to run the same study several times on different populations. Often, studies measuring the same thing will vary in methodology, which requires even more studies to control for those.

My understanding was that most of the tech opposition came from 'lower' margin businesses as it's a tax on gross receipts (revenue) vs profit so it disproportionally hurts high volume low margin businesses (like stripe, square, lyft) vs high margin software businesses (like salesforce).

Elsewhere in this thread I've seen just the opposite. Tons of people claiming variants of "breaking changes should just bump the major version."

I think the problem is that nobody wants to go manually find games across the web, then maintain a bookmark list of their games, share purchasing info with 100 different sites, throw away a central liaison for customer support/community/developer interaction.

Now you could still do a central repo of webasm games but if anything I could see Steam offering a WebAssembly portal or something.
