Documentary is not news reporting done in movie form.

It's not supposed to be some "objective" filming of a real situation or a retelling of a story either. Some documentaries strive to that, others are whimsical, personal, subjective, surreal, and so on. Some include fiction, others create the situations they cover (and not just report on them). Modern documentary creators and festivals have embraced all kinds of narrative styles, from verite to mocumentary, and from first person narrative to surreal story fragments.

Documentary is more of an umbrella category with a very rich variety than a specific "verite" style genre or the typical "WWII/nature" stuff.

> It surprises me that people could claim that the inverse would ever be true. As in, why would the default be to assume that animals are not conscious?

It's known as motivated reasoning. Specimens of our species are not known for disinterested rationality. We have deep interests in doing things to animals that animal cognition could make more unpleasant or expensive. An ancestor without this talent would have been less likely to become an ancestor. Think of how much tougher it would be to put a spear into a boar if you thought it was as sentient as your mother. You'd still do it if you were hungry enough but would pay a greater price.

My understanding is that most of that is setup costs for retooling a fab, which requires moving around and recalibrating some very specialized equipment. The numbers I heard were dozens of engineers working a total of one to two thousand man hours to set up the process, make and verify the chips, then switch the fab back to the processes their other customers usually order. Since these semiconductor fabs have high upfront and fixed operating costs, they need to have a high utilization to be profitable - preventing anyone from having a specialized fab that makes only RAD hardened chips.

AFAIK the lower cost VORAGO designs require far less retooling so they're a lot cheaper with existing processes.

Fyre Festival is the kind of doc that is time-sensitive; people are watching it because it's good conversation fodder, not because it's an important topic to discuss in our modern society. Also a good way for Hulu to try to get some more brand recognition in the streaming wars.

If HBO came out with one 3 months from now, who would care? The news cycle would have moved on.
As recently as the 1980s, doctors did not provide anesthesia to infants undergoing surgery. They thought infants' pain response was just a "reflex", not a conscious experience of pain.

Depends on locality. I was a chef in the American Northeast and I worked with plenty of live lobsters, even at some mid-priced restaurants. I don't think people in Kansas have quite the same luxury, but I do remember seeing tanks when I lived out in the Midwest as well. Where I'm at though, there's plenty of live sea-food available for purchase through the year.

On topic, I don't think the author of this article understands how the calculator he's using work; the calculators (at least the Casio one; I have the 115 ES Plus and I think it's functionally identical to the 991 ES Plus) are actually just computing the integrals numerically and then converting to fractions because the error in result was smaller than the the threshold needed to convert it to a fraction. There is no "smarts" (i.e. a CAS) involved.

I always figure they're looking for a population consensus. They're doing image recognition at scale and these are clearly ambiguous, hard images to classify. They could easily have a few people at Google say, "I determine this is a storefront" and make that the "correct" answer, but I think they're more interested in a consensus of what most "normal" people would classify as a storefront, especially in potentially-volatile classifications where real humans might argue over the answer. They can skip the argument and just know which side will win it.
Please have one minute of silence to remember this wonderful machine that gave us all so much...

Science FTW.
That fuckjerry was involved doesnt really matter imho. I dont really care who specifically was to blame. The lesson is that the entire situation was allowed to happen. The individual personalities are secondary to the larger story. What matters is what physically happened. Blame and who made what decision doesnt matter to the lessons we should all take from the overall event. So some internal bias doesnt really alter my opinion of the doc.
They're not comparable chips. The RAD6000 has a thousand times more RAM, for starters.
The likely answer is a bit of both. They use the image tests because it's something that is still kind of hard to do for computers and then uses a small percentage of the boxes as unknown tests to improve some ML algorithm. Unfortunately as computer vision has gotten better they've had to make the challenges harder to the point where they're quite low quality and sometimes count very small features qualifying images. My least favorite is labeling 'cars' because it can be hard to tell if it wants to count cars way off in the distance through the adversarial noise they add to the images.
I´m so sorry, for your expectings :/

Principle 8 mentions "demand control", including "estimating the cost of a query before performing it". This is very much in line with GraphQL API Management work we are doing at IBM Research. I recently wrote about this: https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2019/02/graphql-api-manag...

I wonder about the other proposal for demand control, namely that untrusted users "should only send queries that have been preregistered by the authenticated developer of the app". To me, that seems to somewhat negate a great advantage of GraphQL, namely giving clients more flexibility in deciding (on the fly) what data to fetch/mutate.
The relevant tech - computer control, metallurgy, etc. - has come a ways since the mid 1960s.

Reddit can (relatively) easily filter content to get past the great firewall, without affecting what's shown outside of China. It's much harder to have one version of a movie in China and one with a different ethnicity of villain elsewhere, hence making the movies as broadly suitable as possible.
What I know about this comes from some training I took for my job. The training came from the equipment vendor, but the instructor was also an operator so he knew the ins and outs of the system.

There is a lot to cover, from calculating link budgets, scramble codes (related to anti-jam), waveforms, pointing a dish, calculating frequencies, reading channel allocation docs, tradeoffs of different frequency bands, etc... However, the basics are pretty basic. You modulate a series of bits onto a carrier at a specific frequency and radiate it at a specific point in the sky. The transponder on the satellite amplifies the signal, shifts it a fixed number of Mhz, and retransmits it back towards the Earth.

There are some satellites that act like flying routers and actually decode the packet back into bits before re-encoding it for transport, but generally the added complexity has made this approach unpopular. One constellation that does this is Iridium, because it then forwards packets between satellites until it can be downlinked to the ground.
Anecdotal experience (Long-time Land Cruiser owner in Western Norway where the SOP at first snow is to salt the heck out of it) suggests that Toyotas do rust like mad; I work hard all year keeping my Land Cruisers (a 1981 BJ42 and a 1998 KZJ95) reasonably rust-free. I have to treat them to lanolin twice a winter season.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hauser%27s_law

Hauser's law is the proposition that, in the United States, federal tax revenues since World War II have always been approximately equal to 19.5% of GDP, regardless of wide fluctuations in the marginal tax rate.[1] Historically, since the end of World War II, federal tax receipts as a percentage of gross domestic product averaged 17.9%, with a range from 14.4% to 20.9% between 1946 - 2007.[2]

So...yeah, marginal rates have been 70% or higher...but the Federal government has never successfully collected that much, due to write-offs, tax shelters, and other schemes that were largely closed in 1986 with...

I think the key question is: would any other marketing company have done the same as FuckJerry, attempting to do the job they were hired for given McFarland’s ability to trick people into thinking the festival was going to be a good experience? Or did FuckJerry know that the people they were marketing to were not going to get the fun time they expected? This article’s detailed logs of who had what job title when on the production of each movie don’t seem to get at the relevant issue of fault. The alleged crimes here are the production and promotion of the festival, not the production of movies created by people trying to assign blame after the fact.

McFarland has been conclusively shown to be a con-man (eg. spammed the Fyre attendee email list selling tickets to nonexistent celebrity meet-and-greets while he was out on bail). We should take narratives that benefit him at the expense of people he lied to with a big lump of salt, given his ability to manipulate.

A couple of factors.

1) The yield rates for spaceflight-qualified chips is very, very low. Like 1%-5% or so. The chips are inspected when they come out of fab, and only the most perfect ones are given a spaceflight certification. The rest of the chips are used for other, less stringent applications (test boards, or military/embedded applications).

2) Spaceflight parts have significant paper trails. For metal parts, they are traced from the moment a lot of material comes out of the mill, and every time it is touched or changes hands thereafter that fact is recorded. Same thing with chips. Every chip has a "traveler" associated with it that records when it was manufactured, how it was stored, etc. Keeping those records costs a surprising amount of money. Handling the parts so the paper trail can be kept costs even more. You have to organize your logistics train such that every part is individually trackable. That reduces efficiency and adds cost.

3) Relatively low economies of scale.

I pay for Spotify. I pay for concert tickets. As far as I'm concerned, this fulfills my obligation to support my favorite artists. Digitally downloaded music is thus already inherently "paid for" and can be downloaded from any source, even if some random entity considers this source "against the rules". No moral hazard, no hassle. Just music.

Though, interestingly, animism seems to be more popular among cultures that live closer to the "I need to put this spear into this boar" end of the lifestyle spectrum. Meanwhile Rene Descartes, who probably wouldn't have had much trouble surviving as a vegetarian, was the one who was doing. . . interesting. . . things to dogs in order to prove a point.

Not sure exactly what that implies, but it would seem to suggest that it's hard to wrap these sorts things up with a bow.
So if we re-implement the 70% marginal tax rate now that these schemes are closed...?

Marci Robin was buying a Fiat 500X from a West Palm Beach, Florida dealership, and was in the final stages of signing all the paperwork, when she was presented with a strange but simple question: was she a robot?

This wasn’t online or anything, she was right there, in person, in front of the sales person, who wanted her to check a box, with a pen, on real paper, confirming that she was not, in fact, a robot. She claims she isn’t.

Pretty much every statement that Elon Musk has made about Autopilot is either widely exaggerated, misleading, or a lie.

I don't understand why? Teslas are great cars, there's nothing else that comes close in a lot of categories (longest range electric car, biggest charging network, fastest acceleration, best user interface, ...).

These cars are full of superlatives, and yet they still don't think it's enough, and they make ridiculous exaggerations... I just don't get it.

It's literally the worst parts of Twitter combined with the worst parts of Facebook with comments from YouTube. I guess most aggregators are cesspools after your cross a certain DAU threshold.
The possible upside of this may be the decentralization of massive content silos like youtube or facebook, toward federated or self-hosting platforms where the administrators of individual "sites" can better know their users. I can see the "fediverse" (the main public ActivityPub network, notably including most Mastodon users) benefiting from this, for example, since a club/gaming clan/media company could run their own Mastodon instance and be responsible for the things posted using it.
Alternatively, you could do something similar as a religious organization and bypass a lot more IRS scrutiny.

The article touches on a cultural shift in business leader salaries, saying that they didn’t demand as much because it would all go to taxes. Not sure how accurate that is, but if it were the case would that explain some of this phenomenon? Basically income would be shifted to lower brackets.
