Feels like a state actor risk in the main. I can't think of a state actor without significant volumes of more attackable assets in earth orbit, and that's without considering their options for eg A one time cipher stream or other serious protection of the uplink signal.

I doubt it's using open comms and a diginotarencrypt certificate.

In principle: Yes.

In practice, I can tell you from first-hand experience that this isn't all that simple in bigger, organically grown cases (you'll have many other things to consider if you want to keep the history in a useful way). Especially the broken branching model of SVN and co. is a problem here: In the wild, it immediately leads to "copy&paste branching" (usually through multiple commits. Migrating that to Git or Hg and splitting it up can be a challenge.
A real problem for some is that standardizing power adapters interferes with the sale of original manufacturers' adapters. The authentication mechanism looks to be designed to fix this revenue leak.
I saw Miles Davis play a few years before he died. His band was all young, playing hard and fast. Miles walks slowly across the stage and plays one mind bending chord on a keyboard and the entire mood changed, totally reconfigured the whole composition. Conservation of energy. Coolest MF ever.
I think it's unambiguously about revenue as the paragraph it's in is all about the factors affecting revenue and the containing sentence specifically says it's enumerating factors affecting the divisions performance which would never be measured in units in the context of a post on revenue.

It is in fact not exactly the same. Because the innovation allows slimmer, lighter design and pushes society to adopt wireless which is ultimately inevitable.
It’s lua, just with restrictions. Nothing you’d ship with, but a far cry from almost assembly.
Any bio nerds know why silkworms?

There's an obvious reference to Chinese culture in that one, curious what are the biological reasons to choose that creature over any other.
> Is this what a space race feels like?

No.

New Horizons capturing Ultima Thule is not a large enough event to warrant the Chinese feeling like they need to compete with it. Spectator wise, it's a nice event for anyone that likes astronomy. It will be ignored by most of the people on the planet, just as the Chinese landing on the far side of the moon will be. These are not seminal moments in space history.
I suppose this could be settle empirically, though I don't know how to get the data.

Can you point to examples of large stocks having a supermajority (let's call it 66%) of all stocks move in one business week, without a corresponding crash in price? Call it dropping by half.

If, as I suspect, this sort of movement is both extremely uncommon and unfailingly accompanied by a deep discounting, then perhaps this balance of supply (people willing to sell) and demand (people wanting to buy) is part and parcel of what makes a commodity valuable, and valuable at a certain price?

Because GP was saying that market cap should be based on a counterfactual; s/he wants it to mean something it doesn't.
On the demographics here (mostly western and English speaking), many more of us had family fighting and dieing against Germany than any of your examples, some of which were centuries ago.

It's interesting you say that. I've been looking at de-googling myself and getting off Android, but I cannot find a decent replacement in the App store for my password manager of choice (KeePass2Android, cos I use KeePass everywhere).

Other Apple owning friends of mine say I should be using whatever it is that iPhone supplies by default, but the problem is I want to de-google myself, not move entirely into Apple land, so having something which only works on the phone isn't going to fly. I've got Windows and Linux machines all over the place that I want my password manager to sync with.

Edit - spelling.

Most of the years I was a heavy user of md it seemed like Neil Brown was the only person working on it, so for every weird use case or if documentation was lacking I'd shoot him an email and he'd get back. I can only imagine how many other people were doing the same!
For X (your test data) and Y (your training data), we have our prior: X ~ N(0, <kernel>) and Y ~ N(<training values>, <identity>). For the joint distribution I can accept that the covariance will have the same kernel function (albeit on |X| + |Y| dimensions) but what would the mean be?
Exactly. Imagine how silly it would sound if someone said "Not sure about this new BMW CEO chaps, unless we see some innovation from the company like them developing a line of smartphones or computer tablets and an app store, we can safely say they are not properly innovating"
You're probably more likely to see the desktop become totally irrelevant.
>Another recent poll shows that only 42 percent of millennials support capitalism.

This statistic means something very different in context. The same poll showed 33% of people supported Socialism.

There are major noise factors here, including disillusionment and the fact that 'Capitalism' and 'Socialism' carry much cultural baggage and mean very different things to different people. Further, the statistics would arguably be very different if the poll sample was meritocratic rather than democratic.

Presumably, the cross-over (people that reject both Socialism & Capitalism) support a charity based or non-profit economy.

A prediction: Capitalism will 'prevail', and non-profits will remain 'niche'. Claim: 'Capitalism has a more survivable structure'.
Consumer demand will mature over time, forcing for-profit organizations to respond by addressing all externalities, being self-accountable & transparent, and being externally audited.
Wage spread will decrease. Shareholder dividends will dwindle.
Socialism will not grow significantly beyond Scandinavian style investment (shared infra, healthcare etc.). Government will continue to 'lag behind' in legislation and action. Capitalism will continue to force Government to innovate and legislate. Government will not be able to provide the services that capitalism does, to the same cost-effectiveness and quality standard.

Arguably in an ideal world, government would 'take over' mature industry, if there were appropriate internal controls and no future innovation was necessary.

You're right that the feet deform significantly when you stand on them. For that reason you usually measure them load-bearing (i.e. you stand up with even weight distribution on your feet).

I think it's more likely that it's the deformation of the shoe that is uneven than that the shoe affects the deformation of the foot much. An exception would be if it has a built-up sole with support for the arches, preventing the arches from collapsing.

Either way, it's a complex process that is hard to model, just like you say. The way we're getting around it is by collecting various data on what people end up liking and then infer the properties of the shoe, rather than trying to explicitly model it. So the solution is a combination of 3D scanning and machine learning.

Also worth mentioning, by the way: most people actually have slightly different size and shape on their left vs. right foot. For about 50% of the population the length differs by more than half a US size. Being perfectly symmetrical is the rare case.

I think there's a nuance to this that should be pointed out: Monorepos allow you to do very bad hacks (I need this other component over there; let me just put in a Symlink. Done.). And if people can, they will use those hacks.

If you split your repo up from the get go, the worst thing you can get that you'll have to assemble multiple distinct, well-encapsulated (in terms of project structure) things into one. In Git, that could lead to multiple root commits, but that's about it.
These are all frameworks and while none of them have any signular advantage over other especially in the problem statement you are looking for, you should ideally be able to figure out what works best for you based on the classification sensitivity and training data you are working with. The problem in itself can be quite simple to extremely complex based on the above 2 factors. Spacy's pre-processing tools are quite easy to use and that combined with tool like talon should help you clean up the email correctly. Thereafter, if your email text is pretty much to the point, then any intent classification tool will work, however, if the email text is long and intents are spread across, then you will need a hierarchical layer to understand the intent hierarchies as well as an attention layer to understand which intents to focus and not lose track of in an email. At that time, you are quite far from using a generic plug and play framework and will need to exactly and quite thoroughly understand the deep learning models you are working with as well as the dataset you have and the classification you are trying to build.

All their CI and release problems traced back to it.

At the risk of sounding like an old git, package coupling and package cohesion principles were defined for a reason.

I do feel like a lot of patterns in contemporary development are kneejerk reactions to how last generation's programmers did things.

Exceptions? Nah, multiple returns!
Dependency management? Who needs it... Oh, wait.

Many small, single-responsibility repos? Wang it all in one, and then invent your own tooling to cope with it!
That is in 70s. And even in this century, space programs fail all the time, think of ESA's attempt to land on Mars, one of the roller never makes to send anything back.

The Soviets did an admirable job in even succeeded sending one of those photos back.
A theoretical perfect wall sure. But it's the nature of long walls that they 1000s (if not more) times cheaper to defeat than build. Witness the various tunnels, drones, ladders, and even catapults used to cross the existing border fences.

A lot of satellites and probes "back in the day" more or less depended on security through obscurity. You would need to know what frequency (or frequencies) to use, and how to encode the commands. Your ground station also needs a bigass antenna, and a good idea of where to point it.

Now most if not all satellites use encryption and/or authentication for command and control, but I wouldn't be surprised if some space programs don't bother. With something like the New Horizons, why waste precious CPU cycles with encryption/decryption when it takes such a tremendous effort to communicate with it. The Deep Space Network costs something upwards of $1,000/hour, and requires huge dishes and lots of land.
I think the big question is is this an issue for Apple alone?

They explicitly write about a sharp turndown in China.

The guidances drops from 89-93 to 84 (about 8%). From what they are writing that all can be accounted for by the drop of revenue in China. Since China accounts for around 1/5 of Apple's revenue - the drop must have been around 40%-50%.

Which is a lot for a single quarter.

Also notice the reaction in the forex market. That certainly indicates that this is a broader issue.

I have a 7. I’m a typical dream-customer for Apple and my carrier in that I upgrade every 24months (Hand phone to a family member and get a new one).

I don’t care about new features such as Face ID. I do look with envy at the X camera though.

My next phone might be another 7 unless Apple drastically cuts prices or introduces an iPhone 9 with the X camera.

There is no justification for adding 50-100% to the monthly cost of a smartphone in 2019 when it’s the first time I don’t really need a faster phone!

Apple obviously realize that if they had a reasonably priced phone it would eat all their XR/XS sales, but the product strategy just looks like it risks losing customers to Huawei/Samsung.
Used to love Umicomps, but bucking springs is actually kinda undesirable to me now. I partly blame open offices but frankly I also have come to prefer different switches from the get go, something requiring less force.

Also, when they finally didn't have the lens cap issue, they couldn't measure the soil compressibility, because an ejected lens cap landed right where the probe was to do the measurement.

But to be fair to the Russians, the cameras weren't an important part of the mission (except for showing off), and getting rid of the caps at 700K temperature, 92bar pressure and sulfuric acid rain, while still preserving the cameras in working condition, is probably very difficult.
No need to choose, you'll get both!
“Just to get this out of the way, I see Apple shares currently presenting a huge buying opportunity. A good Christmas quarter will regain that lost 20 percent, and I don’t see any reason why Apple shouldn’t have a good Christmas quarter.”

100% recommend the BigQuery and Segment combo. It’s so easy to setup and querying is just SQL. Few annoying issues though: Metabase is brilliant, but doesn’t support big query datasets properly so isn’t really able to be used. We’re in the process of switching to Tableau for our BQ queries, which allows powerful joins across all sorts of different data sets
The in store labs can only make prescriptions within certain parameters. Anything outside those has to be sent out.

We constantly hear about phones that die before reaching 0%, or losing the last 20% very fast. Google Nexus 6P comes to mind.

I'm fairly confident that what apple did was the most logical thing. They should have been more informative about it, but it's better than a phone dying at 20%.
No. The worst case is that the engineering team spent more time working on “well encapsulated projects” than on the most important project for their business and are all now out of jobs. Most companies don’t fail because of tech debt. And certainly not because of version control tech debt.
But before reading "Superforecasting", read Jackal's two-star review on Amazon. I agree with that well-written review, which also recommends other things to read.

The story behind Chang'e is also interesting. Essentially, she is the wife of a legendary hero, Hou Yi(后羿), who saved the mankind from dying of drought due to the presence of nine Suns, by shooting all but one of them down.

Chang'e stole the Immortal Pill, and eat it alone without her husband knowing. After she ate it, her body became to float and she flied to the moon, to live there alone forever as her punishment, with only one rabbit being her companion.

Sounds familiar? Yep I believe if you are a Naruto fan, you can make a lot of connections.
> You can't split monorepos after the fact, at least not without immense costs.

Sure you can. The difficulty of doing so depends on many (many) factors. If your team does their job well then the costs won't be immense. It might be annoying, but not that hard.

Speaking in absolutes or platitudes solves nothing. Sometimes monorepos make sense. Sometimes polyrepos make sense. It's entirely dependent on what your company does.
This article gives me the feeling that the folks who run Jacobin have a "holier-than-thou" attitude towards the rest of the left. I get the feeling that they look down upon more idealistic leftists, and think of themselves as pragmatic and grounded, a quality they deem that the rest of the left lacks.

Might be the way the article is written (it seems to try hard to portray Jacobson's success as a demonstration of capitalism's successes), but there definitely seems to be an underlying kernel of truth.
Turns me off of Jacobin even more.

Just a point on this, in the two UK apple stores I went into recently, they were literally crammed with people getting replacement batteries. At least three people’s battery change didn’t work (including the screen repair I was getting done due to a white spot on the display) and they handed over brand new iPhones to those people. This has a significant cost to it which multiplies the original problem somewhat!

It’s extremely obvious they weren’t ready for this quantity of repairs.
I am suddenly so glad to live in China. I can get three pairs of glasses for ¥600, thin, polarised, with anti-scratch coating and my friend whose vision is bad enough that he’s probably legally blind without glasses can do the same. At those kind of prices I’m not surprised people bring sunglasses home as gifts.
Thanks. That was really good.

I just wish the following was true.

>> The consequences of human irresponsibility in terms of waste and pollution will become more apparent and unbearable with time and again, attempts to deal with this will become more strenuous. It is to be hoped that by 2019, advances in technology will place tools in our hands that will help accelerate the process whereby the deterioration of the environment will be reversed.
Jacobin is one sharp publication. Baskar runs a tight ship, and somehow the books are even in order! Who would have thought?
