Exactly. This whole atheism vs. agnosticism debate is about semantics. Ultimately the question to ask is, is it rational to act like there are gods. An atheist says no, a theist says yes, and an agnostic is neutral on the subject.

This is not the same thing as asking if there is a god or not, which is not answerable.

You said:

> This is a great tool for stifling opposing politics of _any_ kind. And seems like the easiest way to start an oppressive tyranny than a method of stopping terrorist propaganda.

You’re talking about a tool in New Zealand you clearly knew nothing about but presumed was some kind of censorship you’d find in a dictatorship. You’ve been corrected on that. Then your concern was far away authoritarian regimes. Now your concern is the US and yet you bring up nothing related to how New Zealand’s Office of Film and Literature’s classification applies to potential US pathways into tyranny.

I don't think so no. I think in health there is just a lot of pressure to come to an answer (does this medicine hurt or help) and to have a justification for that lawsuit for regulators and attorneys.
One of the things I hate about modern games is that while the environment gets closer to realism, humans (face, skin) still look like corpses. I prefer cartoonish characters instead of being in uncanny valley.

The woman in the demo looked somewhat real; if this is real time and reproducible in games then it's a huge step forward.
That's always a possibility and there are others. Many people found that whole class of possibilities not especially interesting, because they are falling on the irrefutable slope; if there is a "god" that absolutely can not be detected, it is as-if there is "no" god for all practical purposes. It's very similar to asking if we are in a simulation that we can't detect: well, yeah, maybe, but then so what? this would be our universe, nothing more, nothing less.

In retrospect, it looks like they should have gone with their original idea and built a new small airplane from a clean sheet design.

It could have been fly by wire and included the important flight envelope protection controls that can't just be glommed-on to the older 737 design.
Talent is not evenly distributed, for example some groups of population has much lower average IQ than others.

I'd expect this one to be released eventually as well.
(1) You should check out https://wcroc.cfans.umn.edu/wcroc-news/ammonia-wind (the title specifically mentions "gaining momentum"). (Bear in mind this technology works by making H2 first from electrolysis). There's a half-dozen more of these research groups. Wind and solar electrolysis are sensible because they can be placed next to ammonia consumers that currently have to have ammonia shipped in from thousands of miles away. Unfortunately, your technology is tied to CO2 injection wells, which aren't all that common outside the western US.

(2) I'd love to see your math, but assuming it's not available, let me show you my math: Assume 6000 pounds per acre per year yield of wet grass. Say that's 5000 pounds dried. Model grass as 100% cellulose, which is 6% by weight hydrogen. Assume 100% process efficiency, where you get all the hydrogen out, and it's magically compressed. 300 pounds of hydrogen sounds like a lot, but according to wikipedia, is only worth about 32 cents a pound at the pipe. So my numbers show $100/acre/year. The value goes way up at the "pump", but that's because of transportation infrastructure that neither you nor your competition provide. That also assumes free injection of low-pressure waste CO2, which is not only a fantasy, but presumably ties your process to a location far away from your target market for the H2.

(3) Ammonia solves your hydrogen storage and transmission problem, so my math shows it's way favorable, especially since you're triply tied to a CO2 injection site, fertile acreage to grow your grass, and an H2 consumer. Picking ammonia makes cost-effective transportation to the consumer possible. Realistically, you'd react the ammonia with CO2 to make urea, which is way better than ammonia for both transportation costs and market demand.

(4) Didn't say YC funded you, but you were in their demo day, hence my mention of the YC slot.
You can get that stuff without a libc, if you’re not literally compiling C or C++. If you are, you’re right, though.
Interestingly, the best ideas of Wave made their way into Google Docs, where they are frequently used today. Collaborative web-based editing, inserting images, tracking changes - we take these for granted now.

Docs (and its predecessor Writely) was the working simple system. Wave was a great complex system, but it failed and then the carcass was mined for ideas that could be applied to the working simple system.
I have a nose like a bloodhound. If someone has been smoking in the house, there is no way to hide it from me. My cleaning lady is also somewhat of a detective and has been known to go through the trash if she thinks rules have been broken.

Smoking outside is a different problem. Until recently I didn't forbid it, but earlier this year I found cigarette butts in the brush below the deck, along with a burn mark on the dining table and cigarettes in the trash. That was from a large group of college aged boys.

In normal dry conditions, Colorado mountain country is like a big pile of kindling just waiting for some dumbass to toss a cigarette butt into the pine needles and set the town ablaze.

This incident really freaked me out. I took their entire security deposit, and added rules and a stern warning to my listing. At some point I'll install a camera outside to watch the deck and back yard, because I know it will happen again.
I for one flagged this kind of crap in one my recent peer reviews. It is a transgression that is all the worse when their sample size was woefully small.

I used to work for a game studio a long time ago. Here is a rough sketch of what the process looked like for that game studio

a. Concept artists will create multiple possible worlds by drawing either using a physical medium or on a tablet.

b. Art Director will critique concept art and iterate with concept artists until he finds a world he approves. Concept artists will then draw many scenes in this imaginary world to confirm that there is no miscommunication between the Art director and the concept artists.

c. Some of the key characters and scenery from this world will be given to Modelers who will create 3d models of those assets.

d. Initial goal will be to bring one or two scenes to life.

e. Once the initial few scenes and main characters are fully approved, more headcount will be added and the creation process becomes more parallel.

f. Everyone involved watches the short multiple times a day to monitor progress. There is accountability for who owns a particular character for a given frame.
Oh good god, that adapter.

Yeah, it's a pretty crazy world where a game developer pushing an update to a game on Xbox live seems to have a harsher approval process to go through than an automaker pushing OTA updates that literally drive cars.
One thing to remember is that someone who has no official rating enters a tournament as unrated. The "does not suck in chess but isn't any good" rating is about 1500. Union Sq has a couple of Asian kids who play 1600-1700 hustlers ( with their parents watching ) and do about even with the which would make them about the same range. I'm sure they are unrated according to the US Chess Federation.

Typically one would not want to enter an official tournament as unrated player while being a low rated player as that's the only time when one can compete in a low bracket and win a purse.
You're missing the point, for realtime rendering it's not enough for the content creators to have this technology to get the benefits, it has to be used on the target end user hardware too. Getting things to look good with traditional rasterization based pipelines involves a lot of special case hacks and tricks and work arounds for situations where they break down or don't compose. That is a lot of work for the artists to accommodate the limitations of the target platform.

The promise of raytracing is that you can get great results without a lot of tricks and special casing which frees up the content creators to focus on the visuals they want to create without worrying so much about technical implementation details. That only really works if the target platform supports performant ray tracing as well as the content creation tools.
The question is whether it was an issue with the plane or with the FCC. If it was with the FCC can the FCC debug itself?

Let's be clear about all this, and where the problem arises from.

Use case #1. If Youtube only allowed people to upload videos (whether for a fee, or no charge) and share them with people they know, there would be no issue. You send videos to your friends.

Use case #2. If Youtube allowed advertisers to create videos and share those links via channels they control or purchase (e.g. paying a fee per view), there would be no issue. Companies you know market to you by video.

The self-created problem that Youtube has is that it wants to make money by charging for showing category #2 to those in category #1 who didn't ask for it.

Youtube / Google could choose not to have this problem tomorrow by not selling ads, recommending random videos to people, etc.

It's their obligation to figure out this problem, and totally up to them how to solve it. It's not some social or government problem to fix.

> An atheist is not saying that there absolutely is no god, but rather "there is no reason to believe in a god, given what we currently know", which remains a different position from "I, personally, don't know" which is the argument of an agnostic.

The dictionary definition of atheism (Chambers, 1990)

Atheism: The belief that there is no god.

Agnostic: Someone who believes one can only know about material things and so believes that nothing can be known about the existance of God.

The author seems to be using these definitions, so it's not surprising people are confused if they've invented their own definitions.
Although the 767 doesn't have MCAS (that I know of), the strange nose down behavior is upsetting to see in this case.
No, an atheist is simply someone who does not affirmatively believe the claim that there are gods. This does not inherently entail the claim that there are no gods. If you do not accept the claim that there are gods, you are an atheist. Nothing about that breaches the Scientific Method. No evidence is required in order to neglect to accept a claim which was also not presented with scientific evidence.

The author says that atheists need evidence of absence to support their claim that gods don't exist, but atheism does not entail that claim, so the author has some pretty substantial misunderstandings about how the scientific method works and what claims are going on here and when evidence is needed.

I do not need evidence in order to reject a claim that the center of the earth is made out of Earl Grey tea. I can say "I don't believe that is correct" and then just continue on with my life as it was before someone told me that with no evidence.
ARM64 has separate instructions for computing the low and high halves of a product, in keeping with its single destination register approach. x86-64 has a single instruction that computes both halves simultaneously, writing to two registers.
I was just looking at the Godbolt preview for this, and had the same reaction about the mov/movk pairings. Note that -Os does sink some of them below the umulh.

I'm not sure it would help much, though. The algorithm is over-serialized. There's a bare minimum latency of 3x ALU ops + 2x MUL. It just so happens that the 2x high-result multiplies are particularly high-latency on this core, and he must also pay the pipeline piper of having only one multiplier pipe available.
Could the concept of "ownership" be optimized for somehow in hardware?
Thanks for the response!

So, my point is that in the bio-gas process, you are generation H2 + CO2 and using some proceeds from H2 sales to sequester the CO2 you produce.

However, with electrolysis (from renewable elect. plants), you aren't generating any CO2, so any profit that you spend on Carbon sequestration (from somebody else's process) would be a much more Carbon negative proposition overall.

All this depends on the H2 production cost as to which is a mor effective Carbon sequestration scheme, right?

In the paper I cite (I convert SEK to $): bio-gas costs ~$4/kg H2 (let's say this produces 5 kg of CO2), and electrolysis ~$4.50/kg H2 (producing 0 kg Carbon).

Now say it costs $0.50/kg for CO2 sequestration). In the biogas process, because of the cost to sequester the CO2 byproduct, your actually spending ($0.5×$5)+$4 = $6.50/kg H2 produced just to get Carbon Neutral. However, for electrolysis (without the mess) you're only spending $4 to be Carbon Neutral, and if you want you can spend $2.50 (which you avoided by chosing elect. over gas), to go Carbon negative.

These are rough numbers I guessed at based on a little googling. Am I far off on the real numbers?

I'm really not trying to be a pain. What you're proposing is still light years better than the greedy bastards reforming natural gas and pocketing 100% of the profits without giving a second thought to the environment. I'm just wondering if there might be a way for you guys to do even more good, more easily.
Except they didn't, because every Atheist I have ever known would, given evidence, become a theist. They accept humility and that they don't know - they are simply stating their current position given the evidence they have.

The author doesn't understand the argument of the people they are criticizing, and so attributes a lack of humility to them based on their strawman of their argument.
I think your benchmark is wrong. I spend ~15 hours a week gaming, and maybe 1 hour a week on VR (averaged). That feels like a fair amount of use in VR, but it's nowhere near 7-8 hours/week. I'm not sure I'd want to spend 8 hours a week in VR.

But the experiences I've messed with are amazing when they land. Elite Dangerous, Beat Saber, Moss, even Google Earth. It's pretty rare for a game to make me stop and literally exclaim, "Holy shit!", but it happens pretty regularly in VR.
Elevators and medical devices go through extensive testing and certification processes before they ever go near being put into service. And when they are updated, they again go through extensive testing and certification.

Teslas, on the other hand, apparently change their handling and driving profile overnight at the whim of the software engineers at Tesla, without even telling the drivers, and introducing bugs like the OP that are liable to get someone killed.

They are not the same, and comparing them only highlights the issues that Tesla has around their OTA update practice.

Your hands. If you're just resting them on the wheel, that's not enough to prevent the attention monitor from working, it actually has to measure some physical resistance. If you resist the automatic inputs too much, the AP cuts out.

You can test this yourself in a tesla by engaging cruise control, then hitting a turn signal. This would normally initiate an automatic lane change - but keep your hands tightly on the wheel as if you wanted to stay in the lane you're in. The wheel will attempt to turn, fail as you're preventing it from turning - and the AP disables.
After a little (very little) digging the "prize" he won was the Templeton Prize for "affirming life's spiritual dimension, whether through insight, discovery, or practical works."

On the topic of science v. religion he also says "Science does not kill God."

In my opinion this mystical thinking begs the question if he can be trusted within his field. He obviously lacks the ability to remain impartial about his religion. He's playing out a personal crisis in the open for his entire field to witness.

There's just too many things wrong with this that I can't adequately format them all for this post. I feel like I shouldn't have to teach him about things like Atheism. He should have the impartiality to learn about them, accurately, on his own before he goes around making an unsubstantiated ass out of himself.

And who is this mystical fairy-tale Templeton organization who rewards whimsical fringe scientists?

How is a "creationist scientist" (oxymoron in-and-of itself) getting an award from a creationist philanthropic organization for doing bad science to promote creationism newsworthy in the science community?

I really feel this. This article felt almost like a "duh" moment to me, but I realize not everyone has the same experience as me.

I went to an "elite" college (Northwestern University- thought about hiding the name, but really this says more about them than it does about me). I could easily have gone hungry if the cards had played out a little differently. (Friends would sneak me food from the dining hall when I couldn't get enough meals to sustain me, which got me through the worst of it, so I never actually missed more than a meal here or there)

If there was a way to get free tickets to anything, as in the school in the article, I never heard about it. Like the students in this article, I didn't knew what office hours were for until later. Oh, and I was charged to apply for financial aid, because they required an application that cost $20 in addition to the FAFSA. That year I had to beg my aunt for $20 or I wouldn't have been able to apply for financial aid for the next year. Navigating the system to get financial aid was a battle every year.

I graduated a few years ago, make good money now, and honestly I don't think I'll ever donate money to NU after the experiences I had there. Sure, they let me in and gave me need-based-aid - but they sure didn't do anything else to help me succeed. Saying that elite colleges make low-income students "feel unwelcome" is an understatement.
There are people who call themselves atheists who define atheism as carefully as you want them to.

It's not accurate for you to then say "atheism is inconsistent with the scientific method."

We're debating how many people use a term the way you want them to, and how many people use a term the way I want them to.

Hence: pedantics.

I'd be happy if we could get an equal reproduction rate across all income demographics, i.e. more children for wealthy people. As it is we seem to be inadvertently running a selective breeding program against those most capable of thriving in our society. We should stop doing that.
Statistical significance doesn't communicate expected bounds on possible effect size though. If the two sigma bounds are hundreds of meters, the failure to see an elephant in the table is completely meaningless. On the other hand, if it's a few micrometers, that tells you a lot.

If you look at the 5 camera placement on the headset it looks to cover a pretty heavy margin, including a wide FOV camera on the top. So you'd have to have your hand directly behind your back (and not at a height above your head) for it to not be able to track it, which seems like it would be uncomfortable in real gaming scenarios.

John Carmack has also talked a decent bit about their inside-out tracking extrapolation tracking code to keep latency low. Their tracking predicts where your hand will be at the time a frame is rendered, not at the time the frame begins. This not only means the controller tracking will appear low latency but it also means it can figure out from the controller's sensors where it is when it can't get visual range for a second or two. So I imagine you'd have to hold your hand directly behind your back for more than a few seconds to really see the effects, and by the time your controller comes in range (way before you'd see your hand position) it should correct itself.

That being said, some people with hands on did say the inside out tracking didn't do so well when the controller got too close to the front of the headset, so it's up in the air how bow and arrow type of movements will work.
>If you think about it 1.5 Billions is laughable for a company like Google, its only money which they have plenty from. Nothing will change.

Just because they have a lot of money doesn't mean they are okay with losing a bunch. As long as the fine amount, adjusting for the probability of the fine, is higher than benefit Google attains by breaking the law it will act as a deterrence.
