AR seems to be a new medium, and new media are generally broadly used. Video, for example, is not owned by Youtube: there's vimeo, dailymotion, hotstar/netflix/amazon prime video/itunes video, the porn sites, videos on various corporate sites, videos embedded in Amazon product pages, etc.

Likewise, all of AR doesn't need the kind of information only a few companies have. Think of assembling something at home, like furniture. Or a car mechanic. Or astronaut. Or soldiers. Different companies may control relevant data sets in different domains, and some may not even be data-intensive like furniture assembly.

> So why did they keep running Bitcoin Core instead of the fork?

Because it turns out that controlling a github repo is a very powerful power.

> A fork was written, Bitcoin Cash

This has nothing to do with Bitcoin Cash. This has to do with 2XSegwit. An initiative that was supported by every single major miner, all of the exchanges (coinbase, gemini, kraken, ect), as well as the major merchant payment processors (IE, bitpay, and all the others).

There are statements after statements made by all of these players, where they stated support for it. Unfortunately, it seems like the people who control the bitcoin protocol, the developers, had too much power, though.

Did you disagree that every major miner, and Bitcoin business like coinbase and BitPay, put out messages in support of the 2X Segwit agreement?

You're essentially making the case for GOTIS (Girl on the Internet Syndrome).

While the GOTIS principle is something that many female players actively apply (they try not to signal that they're female to avoid attention), it's a tragic thing to operate on or defend.

The only reason it's salient is because most users of a community are male, which is self-reinforcing. Female outliers get naturally highlighted in a highly male context, and, whether or not they use this to their advantage, they'll suffer its downsides. It's tragic that they should have to and that we're still so sexually partitioned, culturally.

I’ve stopped doing it reactively and instead take 30 mins at the start of my day to roughly plans out when I’ll be doing things in my calendar.

I get a notification 15 mins before a task change occurs so I can decide either to continue because I’m on a role (often not the case, actually just flailing at a bug) or move on.

If plans change I can usually retrofit my day as the calendar reminds me of the general structure.

It’s worked significantly better for me than reactively tracking my time unless the task length is small e.g. sub 30 mins (something like marking a single students work).

> Hence, the true risk of a "dirty bomb" -- is psychological

I imagine there are some radiation-sources which are harmless outside the body because the dead cells of your skin would easily absorb and block them, but would wreak havoc if they were ingested or inhaled as dust.

Sometimes this is presented as a question where you have three or four cookies, which emit things like alpha/beta/gamma radiation and possibly neutrons, and you have to decide which cookie to eat, which to put into your pocket, which to put in a lead box, etc.
Time to whip out the XKCD radiation chart[1], which gives us measures around:

* One chest CT per hour for touching the ore (or about 9 hours touching the ore to reach your annual max dosge)

* One head CT per hour for touching the bucket

* nothing for 5ft away

* One chest XRay per hour touching the cabinet (less than a cross-country flight LA <-> NYC)

Roentgens are historical units of exposure, it's simply what a lot of older meters read.

Roentgens can be assumed to safely equal RADs (although they don't, conversion is less than 1 for kV), the historical unit for "Radiation Absorbed Dose." For photons this would be equal to REM "Radiation Equivalent Man."

All old units; conversion to S.I., 100 rad = 1 Gray (J/Kg), 100 rem = 1 Sievert.

Essentially, who ever wrote the report was old and conservative.

There's no mention of using the rest of the cable as the antenna, since in my experience the above tiny adapters have an equally tiny antenna and thus poor reception.
That's a fallacy you're constructing. I have known persons who are into nihilism and they would argue the same that nothing matters with free will. I don't believe the exchange was meaningless because my friend will be reading these replies and have more experience in conversing with doctors. She get's similar responses to what you convey when arguing her position. Btw if you're downvoting my responses on an other account. You're extremely childish if so. The only reason I assume this is the case because the other is reply old enough to where I assume it's the case. People are not supposed to be using the downvoting system in a childish manner is what I believe is true for hackernews.
This is scary. I mean someone can just replace the cables in my house and my phones and computer would become infected. I can't even imagine the headache this does for company's cybersecurity practices.

I agree with your sequence until the last two.

The second to last, that should be Cauchy sequences.

And for the last, demonstrating that the algebraic closure of the reals is the complex numbers from first principles is much harder than describing complex numbers as pairs of reals with a multiplication rule that (a,b) * (c,d) = (ac - bd, ad + bc) and then much later proving that it is algebraically closed through complex analysis.

For those who don't know the proof, the idea is this. Liouville's theorem says that if a function is differentiable everywhere, and it is bounded, then it must be constant. Now suppose that p(z) is a polynomial. Consider the function 1/p(z). You can show that as z approaches infinity, it approaches zero. It is not constant. Therefore it must not be differentiable or not bounded. It doesn't take too much work from there to prove that it blows up somewhere, and the spot that it blows up is a point where p(z) is 0.

Apply unique factorization for polynomials (see http://sites.millersville.edu/bikenaga/abstract-algebra-2/po... for that proof) and you quickly get the fact that the complex numbers are algebraically closed.
Gonna disagree. Do not go to HR. HR is there for the company, not for you. They will seek whatever is the fastest, easiest way to resolve things for the company — which probably is not firing a manager.

At that point we can start experimenting with a 3 day workweek, and find that it too doesn’t reduce productivity.

1) What really bothered me personally about GPT2 is that they made it look sciency by putting out a paper that looks like other scientific papers -- but then they undermine a key aspect of science: reproducability/verifiability.
I struggle to believe 'science' that cannot be verified/replicated.

2) In addition to this, they stand on the shoulder of giants and profit from a long tradition of researchers and even companies making their data and tools available. but "open"AI chose to go down a different path.

3) which makes me wonder what they are trying to add to the discussion? the discussion about the dangers of AI is fully ongoing. by not releasing background info also means that openAI is not contributing to how dangerous AI can be approached. openAI might or might not have a model that is closer to some worrisome threshold. but we don't know for sure. so imv, what openAI primarily brought to the discussion are some vague fears against technological progress -- which doesn't help anyone.

I don't think two cultures can be compared on this basis, my assumption is that, within one culture, diversified organizations will win out on average.

Depends on which third world country. I've actually looked into this. I know a few people in a few countries that could help me do this. Even then, it's not as easy as you may think unless you're willing to break a bunch of laws in a third world country as a foreigner or have a bunch of money. The consequences are pretty high for getting caught.

Then there's always the matter of getting caught and deported 20,30,40 years down the road. I've seen it happen. No matter how comfortable you get this will never stop looming over you.
I think Americans in most of their political discourse continue to miss the point. There's a significant portion of the country who voted for the guy and will vote for him again. He's just a symptom. Whatever it is that's making those people vote for him is where everyone's attention needs to be.

Yes I remember in France in the 80s you had to translate all the technical words (stack, buffer, etc) into French equivalents in order to publish, even though we used the English words in conversation, email etc.

I know Latin was the language of science (later German until the late 1910s) as French was in diplomacy, but the contemporary significance of the use of latinate words is more of an English thing IMHO -- certainly more than in romance countries like Spain! There are some use of latinate endings in loan words in German but technical jargon (e.g. legal language) tends to simply be complex German words.

I gave long found it odd that English went through a phase of using Latin or Greek roots to construct a new word (e.g. television) while most people use their own language (e.g. Fernseh). Or jarringly, combine the two (e.g. "monolingual" -- yech)
It’s still impressive. It looks really close to the official Apple one and I wouldn’t think twice about plugging an iOS thingy into my computer with it.

This article has it backwards: payouts will drop, so premiums will drop (less drastically if they can get away with it). In fact once autonomous vehicles really get working it will likely become very difficult to get permission to drive a vehicle instead of having it drive itself.

Neuroscience PhD student here. The skull acts as a low-pass filter. EEG recordings are typically low pass filtered at 70Hz or lower for example. This is why you can’t decode eg speech from a EEG: the neural encoding is at a higher frequency band than can be recorded. Even though the signal is much stronger, digital comms equipment is orders of magnitude higher in frequency and does not penetrate the skull well.
I too have been discriminated against due to my gender.

One of the first jobs I took (in IT) was for a large regional airline. After I had worked there for about a year, a position opened up that would have amounted to a promotion, both in pay and position. I had both the experience for the position, as well as a good reputation in the company. Further, my supervisor (with whom I had a good relationship) was in charge of the hiring effort, so I figured I had a pretty good in. Ultimately I was passed over for the position because my supervisor was a socially awkward man who used his position in the company to hire attractive women in hopes that they might one day sleep with him. He ended up hiring an (attractive) woman that worked nearby in accounting. She had no IT experience. I left because of this, and he hired two additional (unqualified) women this way before he got a little too touchy-feely and ended up fired.

I'm a man, in case you're wondering.

About ten years later I was working for a large healthcare provider. A position opened up for a senior software engineer and most of the software engineers in my department applied for it. Ultimately the head of IT ended up hiring an (attractive) data scientist from a different department, who had no experience in project management or software engineering. Everyone thought it was super weird until it came to light that he had hired her because she was his mistress and he was looking for a way to spend more time with her without arousing suspicion. He was also fired.

More years later, I put in a very competitive bid for some programming work with a company whom I had previously done contract programming work and had a good relationship with. Ultimately they selected someone else for the contract. Since I knew the owners, I contacted them directly to ask if there were anything I could have done to improve my bid. They explained to me that because they were a minority owned business (women) and were both of under-represented orientations (they were both lesbians) that they needed to select a contractor that reflected that, so they paid nearly twice as much to a small startup whom they had heard was also owned by lesbians. The project failed and they ended up paying almost three times as my bid.

Nobody I mentioned ended up ruined. The first two moved on to other jobs. The company that paid three times as much? Still around. They all paid a penalty for their bad decisions, though. Some people never do. Some people are just awful and life rewards them for it. It's not fair, but all you can really do is move on, try again, and do your best not to get bitter about the cards you've been dealt. I hope things get better for you.
Sure. And most of that happens in the context of "refer anyone and we will vet them with our hiring process". If you change that to "only refer people whom you personally vouch for because we will trust your judgment to replace parts of the hiring process", there will (or can) be incentives to refer people who are really good, not just people you personally like and would like to help out. If you combine that with hiring people who've worked in diverse environments, that might counteract the natural referral biases.
A lot of the times, when you hit turbulence at altitude in an airliner, it's because of this. If you watch the map display closely on your seatback you can actually see it happening: you'll feel a big bump or jolt and then your speed readout might be 50mph less and your altitude might be 2000 ft less.

As other people mention, it doesn't happen immediately - it's like merging onto a very bumpy freeway.
