Yeah, that's fair, I suppose. A friend of mine has a site he goes to for streaming stuff that isn't available legally on a streaming service. It seems useful to watch things that you can't watch anywhere else, but the quality is just so-so compared to Netflix etc. Reliability also isn't great; he sometimes also has to fiddle with which mirror the player has selected to avoid stuttering and buffering pauses. The overall experience is definitely worse, so I wouldn't go there first if a title was available on a legal service.
Sorry.

The Economist’s willingness to fess up to their mistakes makes me trust them. For years, even up till 2017 every mention of the Iraq war would include the caveat “(which this newspaper supported)”.

They don't even need to shoot it down. The Chinese already stole the designs, evaluated them, and have been working on their own less-risky copy for years. They have a proven ability to copy and adapt weapon systems at a faster rate than anyone gives them credit for.

The J-31 is basically a twin-engine F-35, minus the sensor fusion capabilities. The Chinese are still very poor at making fighter jet engines, so they went with 2 smaller engines probably for redundancy and because they can't build one gigantic reliable engine anyway. The jet is probably still underpowered.
> From what I read purpose of MCAS is to make stick give same feedback as on 737 NG

No, the MCAS system is not in any way responsible for feedback to the control stick. It engages the stabilizer (tail plane) trim motors based on AOA sensor readings, the state of the autopilot and whether the flaps are engaged or not. It has a limit of 2.5 degrees change but this limit is reset every time the system is reset in effect allowing it to fully deflect the tailplane until the limit stops kick in.

I'm not making that comparison (I never mention macOS at all); not sure where your reading that. I'm merely pointing out that a response of "it works for me and has for 10+ years" when someone says "it doesn't work on my laptop" is entirely unhelpful.

In fact it shows that they don't at all get the point you've made that Linux runs on orders of magnitude more hardware variants than macOS does and thus it should be obvious that all hardware can't be equally well supported.

GitLab had the really cool CI/CD features before Bitbucket was getting some attention in this area.

Also you have to differentiate Stash (on-prem; Java) and Bitbucket (on-demand [if it works haha]; Python).

Bitbucket was meant to be used with Bamboo for pipelining so it was just a GUI for managing repos.

GitLab is open source! That is a big advantage in itself.

There are technical reasons to use a female voice. A female voice better matches the frequency response of the human ear than a male voice, and the frequency response of small loudspeakers like those found in phones.

However, a pitched-up male voice could have the same frequency content, and it wouldn't sound any weirder than this "neutral" voice.
Wow, check your privilege.

https://flowingdata.com/2018/02/08/how-different-income-grou...

Housing, health care, food, and transportation make up close to 75% of of all household spending. And it's an even higher percentage the lower your income level. And on average people in our lowest income brackets spend more money than make - so really it's like they spend 100% of their income on necessities and then borrow for things like the Internet, travel to their uncle's funeral, repairing their broken heater, and so on.

These are basic life functions, forget about an iPhone.
I can give you hundreds of examples of people being accused of being a white nationalist without any merit to it. To such a degree that this word almost lost its meaning.

edit: Tim Pool for example was already accused. It will clearly be used to shut down unwelcome dissent.
So... what are they going to do?
Right, but I think that demonstration is unnecessary (because, duh, of course it works on some hardware), and entirely unhelpful (because, duh, the person being replied to does have issues with it, and describing an unrelated experience doesn't add anything to the discussion).
In fairness, access to features such as call logs and clipboard are too easily abused. I think that most users downloading apps from the Play Store have the expectation that Google is taking care of their privacy. As the author mentioned, advanced users can still sideload any non-approved apps they want, and as advanced users they should understand any security implications.

The point I do agree on is that the platform itself is becoming far too locked down, and the example of "Imagine if the online banking of my bank refused to open on my desktop because it knows I know the password for the administrator account" is a valid one and shows just how crazy it's getting.

> 1. You likely can't force someone to disclose all their citizenships.

Yes you can, in some cases; as for instance in some cases, especially IT security, you cannot be a foreign national or have ties to some specific nationality if you do business with local governments. This requires you to know the nationality(ies) of your employees. You can still have them in your team but they cannot work on the project. The Australian law would make this a very good argument to not hire them as they cannot work on any project as they are a possibly compromised.
An example would be SpaceX which only hires US citizens due to DoD contracts.

> 2. In most countries you can't legally discriminate based on nationality. In practice publishing this comment here will likely cause you more trouble if you reject someone now, than Australian government.

I'm pretty sure that in the cryptography and IT security business the value of not having to comply with this law outweighs the cost of any discrimination lawsuits.
IIRC the two planes that crashed only had a single AOA sensor (the 2nd redundant one being only present in a premium add-on that those airlines didn't purchase), so this software fix would have not changed anything.

> If they did require a separate type rating, this would likely kill 737 sales

Would it, though? I'm genuinely asking because I don't know how much all this costs. Certainly certifying pilots for a new aircraft isn't free, and probably isn't cheap, but the MAX line promises significant savings in fuel cost. In the long run, would the latter outweigh the former?

>But that form of CAS is unique to the 'last war'.

Unique like how the A-10 has been operating in such uncontested airspace of the 'last war'?
An SU-25 was downed by a MANPADS last year in Syria. The A-10 is tough and highly survivable, but the case of not being hit in the first place has some merit.
> If they'd done this, they'd have needed to provide additional training, and this must have concerned Boeing management that it might jeopardize the common type rating.

Yes. There were no simulators to train pilots (only 4 delivered up to now, vs. 376 planes delivered! -- by the way, the value of all MAX orders, including these still not delivered, is around 600 billion with a b dollars!) and if I'd guess the simulators can't simulate the plane behavior when MCAS is off. Because the selling point is "MAX behaves the same as the old one." Which is just not true.

> the 2nd redundant one

No, it was never redundant, in the "premium variant" only the "they don't match" signal would be displayed / sounded, but only one used still, and the pilots would have to turn MCAS off and fly with the plane which behaves differently than the one for which they are trained.

Werbos and others were very aware that the method worked and also of the implications of it:

The Hinton cartel happened to be in the right condition that allowed them to ignore the politically correct BS starting at the turn of the century which rendered the study of neurons, IQ and intelligence massively unpopular; and ruthless enough to only cite one another and call themselves the "fathers of deep learning" rather than actually citing the originators of these ideas.
GOTO is still a legit way to cleanly break out of nested loops. I cringe whenever I hear normie programmers lament on how blanketly bad it is.

No, all 737s have two AoA sensors. The one on the captain's side feeds the flight control computer on that side, and the one on the first officer's side feeds the flight control computer on that side. At any one time, one computer is in charge. They can compare data, but Boeing decided not to for MCAS.

I haven't thought of this in years. Sr Engineer wanted me to build a 'chamber simulator'. IE simulates a pressure chamber with a bunch of valves and interlocks.

Wanted me to implement it with analog circuits and jungle logic.

I went fuck that and hand built a board with an 8051. Wrote the program in assembly on paper. Hand translated it to hex. And then used a hex editor to generate the hex file. Which I used to burn the epprom. Took two days to debug it.
If you don't need to do much, then why not? If you are sprinkling validation, maybe a notification or two, and can assume modern browsers then vanilla is good. Although I'd still use Typescript and Webpack.
By later concessions do you mean invokedynamic? How much did it help? Clojure doesn't use it even now, 8 years after it came about, I think. Is it mostly for JRuby?

The JVM is (and was from the start) a lot more dynamic than Java.
All 737 MAX have two sensors. The Lion Air flight had sensors disagreeing by 20° right from the start. This made the stick shaker go off on one side right after departure (throughout the entire flight) and led to a multitude of other alarms (altitude disagree, unreliable airspeed).
At this point no 737 pilot has any excuse not to understand MCAS, including what it does and how to disable it if there's a problem, and will be watching for issues vary closely.

I wouldn't have a problem flying on one.
According to Blancolirio on YT (a wholehearted thumbs up for his journalism, e.g. the video on atlas prime air is worth a watch, he currently flies as FO on the 777 I believe), there exists an angle of attack disagree light already in the 737max options sheet. There's also an option to purchase an AoA indicator dial, and he said one of the major us carriers did buy that option on their aircraft.
It's not about jobs, it's about building and sustaining communities. Using inevitably as justification is not a good way to absolve responsibility.

My bet is that Boeing will spend some time banging on this and then the 737 goes back to being a money maker for them for years to come. I'm guessing that at this point they know what is the problem and are probably pretty far done with coming up with many solutions and picking one that gets the job done. The way this works is that they have to do something because they are grounded.

This may or may not involve installing some extra hardware but it will most certainly involve a software update.

This doesn't sound right: aren't unstable airframes controlled by computers the norm now? If that is the case, a software fix is the answer.

If unstable airframes are not the norm, then the question we need to be asking is how the regulatory regime let an unstable airframe into service.

From what I've gathered, all MAX planes (including the ones that crashed) have two AoA sensors, but MCAS just uses one. As far as I know there was never an option to have a redundant configuration. The premium add-on was the indication that they disagree.

It's really not. There were people long retired before I hit the workplace and I'm fast approaching 50.

There is a combination of seemingly relentless growth in demand and people deciding they've had enough and hitting the management track however. At least in London/finance. The number of people I started with that are still coding on a daily basis is very small.
I got your point. It seems that we are just not on the same page. As the product of any cube can turn out to be 192-bit, it should be impossible to fit into a GPU instruction or even a single CUDA C statement.

That's why I call it big-number calculation: manual carry/overflow handling, larger-than-register size operands, tedious indexing/bug prone if coding from scratch, ... but of course you can still argue that it is not "big."

Or maybe now GPGPUs have big integer support? The last time I did actual GPU computing was CUDA 7 I guess, using cublas in daily basis so never ever been familiar with integer computation in GPU.

>The dog weight one is a good case of how you can futz with numbers to imply a greater relationship

What they did was very similar to standardizing data series (normalizing to mean=0 and standard deviation=1). This is a standard tool in scientific data analysis (most published papers use it) and it's taught in statistic and data science classes. It's also a preliminary step in computing most correlation measures.

It does not exagerate relationships, it helps visualizing them.

The second chart removed the standardization and obfuscated the relationship.

Yes, that's correct. But the implications of AoA disagree are different for the older 737 and the Max with the new software installed. On the Max, this means that the plane will now fly differently at high AoAs than it did if the AoA disgree light was not lit. This is something pilots will need to be trained for.

You basically need the same data structures in an interpreter and a compiler, you don't need them at run time when compiling but you need them at compile time. Lisp in Small Pieces goes seamlessly from interpreters to compilers over a few chapters and everything from the interpreters part is applicable to the compilers, but it is split between compile and run time (it's a great book BTW).

The major problem I see here is why making a specific policy for a specific group of radicals? This problem could be tackled with the generic rules already in place, such as "it is forbidden on Facebook to promote violence".

>Luckily, as moral agents, we humans are capable of differentiating "general political party" from "white nationalists", and can target the latter and not the former.

Really? How about plain nationalists? How about communists? How about separatists? How about traditionalists? How about "Occupy Wall Street"? How about "nationalists" in e.g Iceland, a country where nationalists would be predominantly if not exclusively white in the first place?

If your idea of "general political party" is Democrats and Republicans and the occasional third candidate, ie. the bland two-party consensus that agrees on almost everything (foreign policy, more money to big money, etc), but disagrees on token issues (and that increasingly less), then sure.

But the movements and parties that change things up historically were never welcomed as "general political parties" by the establishment and the "good people" of the 10%.

I'm from a generally center-left-leaning country, where e.g. Reagan would be considered the epitome of nationalist and/or imperialist. Would it be OK for Facebook to censor Reagan (or some modern politician with the same ideas) on those grounds?
