I'm not super knowledgeable about JS, but my guess is that most of the stuff described in the article probably don't happen under strict mode, right?
What I'd like to see is a self-contained home door lock that can use NFC or RFID, and even that just because of the convenience value in not having to get keys out with hands full of groceries. No Internet functionality, no Bluetooth or anything with a range over a couple of inches. Unfortunately, everything on the market that fills that want seems to be either completely unreliable, or hilariously insecure in either technological or physical senses.
I moderated /r/science for a number of years. Such a high effort thankless job. Banning people was the worst part. It just creates conflicts with people who have not much more to lose on that front.

So then why is its structure and location correlated with galaxies at all? Shouldn't it be relatively even throughout the universe?

> Workers are viewed more like inventory

That's how they have been viewed for many hundreds of years now. Nobody will keep you on the payroll if costs more to have you than to not have you. I don't see how this is in any way new.

What is new, however, is that Trump is rejecting the ridiculous notion that we could just let someone else manufacture everything, and actively harasses large manufacturers so they don't take the easy way out and manufacture everything in China. With productivity gains over the last few decades labor cost is not a dominant factor anymore, even though US workers cost more than some sweatshop in China.

I don't get why this is not a bipartisan thing, BTW. Democrats are supposed to be the workers' party, right? Fighting for the downtrodden and stuff? Well, millions of those downtrodden are getting decent jobs now, thanks to Trump alone.
This is an absurd misinterpretation of the data. What matters is how many miles driven per death, not how many deaths. Did you know more people die driving each year than from having bullets implanted in their brains? And yet I'd still rather get in a car than shoot myself in the face.

If you'd actually care to educate yourself, you can start by reading the article I linked in my original comment.
But it's not electromagnetism etc. which stops the ordinary stars from falling into the middle of the galaxy, either. It's just gravity, they are slowly orbiting the centre of mass of the galaxy.
While I appreciate that the iPhone business makes anything else at Apple appear insignificant, I have been amazed at how they've failed to maintain it.

Around 2014, Apple's laptops were celebrated as the best hardware in the business. They were in high demand, with clear dominance in multiple key niches.

Instead of matching the phone's regular release cadence, we've seen spotty update frequencies; instead of a clear product lineup, we've had the confusion of the MacBook vs Air (especially); the butterfly keyboard; the TouchBar; a push to USB-C-only ports; the struggle to get a 32GB-capable model; ho-hum performance; and increasingly meh updates to macOS.

It's like they need a separate "laptop division" (or maybe Mac division?) which can focus on delivering a great laptop product, and not get swamped by the iPhone, iPad, iServices (iCar, iAR, iChargingMat, iEtc).

My only hope is that the problem has been that the laptop folks are distracted by the new ARM-based devices which will blow everything out of the water when they're released next year ... (with the old keyboard, a bunch of ports, etc).
They developed a new transportation system in Austin running on renewable energy? I didn't suggest, and wouldn't, that the problem wasn't solvable. It's simply not a foregone conclusion that paper bags are 100% upside with no drawbacks. Their increased weight has to be paid for. This may be an acceptable cost, but one can't simply wish it didn't exist. It's disappointing that I asked a very straightforward question about what Austin did in support of their effort and got such an answer.
I think that's a very relevant analogy. By the standards of the average driver, the 737 Max pilots were extraordinarily well trained and highly skilled, and they had a lot of time to correct the software error relative to most conceivable problems with a semi-autonomous vehicle. But regulators have still (reasonably) decided that their inability to cope with software quirks should be treated as a software problem and not a problem with the pilots' failure to rectify the erratic behaviour.
I thought it's not uncommon for luxury NYC apartment buildings to have a 24hr concierge / lobby attendant who's main task is to keep strangers out. (In Hong Kong this is pretty much the norm in all residential buildings, upscale or cheap government subsidized ones alike.)
You asked why it doesn't evolve. I'm saying that you are asking why writing doesn't change its fundamental structure for what reason? To fit into people who are doing it wrong?

I can't think of anyone in my circle of friends, family and business who don't say it correctly. I know my rather large circle is not everybody but neither are the people who use it incorrectly and I fail to see the point in changing to incorrect usage.

Also tilt and pressure. But I didn't notice rotation in the sections I skimmed.

With XR coming to unshackle visual output from fixed flat small screens, the question arises: how might we unshackle input? Say one can type while holding a single chopstick. What might one do with 7DOF fingers and brush in 2D and 3D? If a laptop keyboard was also a touch surface, and the space above it were tracked? What does an IDE look like for typing and painting code, where the "paint" is alive? So I'm interested in stylus and brush movement vocabularies, and gesture recognition.
Then we are in disagreement. For every worthy, previously unvoiced opinion, there are five more that would not spread beyond a room full of kooks had the internet (Twitter, Facebook) not given then a global platform. You had to work a lot harder to encounter those sorts of fringe; now every idea, good or bad, is shoved in our faces regardless of its merit. Algorithmic curation is doing a terrible job of containing that

I'm not mentioning names since I'm sure everyone's list of "ideas that should have stayed dead" is different, but you get the idea. The commonalities amongst that list between different people can form the basis for a metric for which ideas should be rebroadcast and which should be allowed to die

To rephrase my point, we are denying ourselves a beneficial natural selection by giving everyone a potentially global voice
Yeah, something is wrong with me for believing the app. Even after I request the ride, the time estimate actually goes up instead of down and clearly, that's my fault too. I bet when an uber crashes, that will somehow be my fault too by your incredibly stupid logic.
So I guess the relevant question there is, has the smartphone managed to overcome "feature fatigue" for all the formerly-separate devices it combines? I would say "Yes, partially," because a software interface is more flexible than a hardware one, and you can at least partly rely on a common language in your UI to guide people along. And if the user wants the clock but not the radio, they can just uninstall the radio and forget about it, instead of having to look past it every time to find the clock.
The landlord is not "losing money" in that case.. merely just not profiting as much as otherwise.

I share that sentiment and in light of that, do you think the better and more economic way forward is possibly to not improve self driving cars as much but the infrastructure around them? Geofencing, urban and street design conductive to autonomous vehicles and so forth?

Like Firefox! I agree, that’s a very nice feature.
I think this is roughly the question why are there galaxies (and clusters, and stars) at all? And the answer is that the primordial soup wasn't perfectly smooth, and gravitational attraction has the tendency to make clumpy things more clumpy. Precisely how un-smooth the soup was, and how clumpy galaxies are today, is quite a large part of the information we have about the history of the universe -- the CMB is a snapshot of the soup right when it came out of the kitchen.

If dark matter was just like matter, then you'd expect it to go along for the ride, and exist now mostly in the same places (and at the same contrast) as normal matter. If it were something else, then its distribution could be much less clumpy, and I think this is a constraint on what kinds of things are plausible candidates.

Reflections on Rereading “Slaughterhouse-Five”
This suggests that a weakness of the global email system is being exploited by spammers: receiving mail servers aren't gossiping enough information about new mail sending domains.

Presumably mail server operators are reporting obvious spammers to (centralised) blacklists, but it would perhaps be possible to better tune a heuristic (and increase the cost to spammers) by sharing information on the number of non-spam messages received.

This could actually be done in a provable and relatively privacy-preserving way, if sending mail servers included signatures of the hashes of the emails they were sending. Every email that was received by a domain of unknown reputation could have its hash+sig sent to a public distributed log somewhere.

If this was combined with some sort of good-behaviour bond that domain registrars required (for domains that send email) and which was paid back after a reputation was established, it would make cheap domains much more expensive for spammers.
I wonder though if the roadway maintenance would be good enough to have that work reliably. The car would still have to react to misconfigured , misplaced or defective aids.

Even if it’s not just negligeance, if an accident were to move the markers, would it cascade accidents until these markers are fixed ?

In the end, it seems we’d still need cars way clever than what we have now for it to be trustworthy.

I’m not saying physical security is easy, but it’s better understood in general, and at the very least, it’s pretty easy to insure against. Most banks offer insurance on safety deposit boxes so if your item goes missing, you are compensated.

I was talking to a guy who provides online security services for financial institutions. I asked him what happens when someone loses money due to a hack. I found his response amusing and horrifying.

“When someone breaches your online account and steals money, if the amount is $50, the bank will restore it at their expense to keep you happy as a customer. If the amount is $50,000... well, the bank doesn’t care about having you as a customer that much.”

AFAIK there are some self-driving cars, that follow guiding lines painted on the ground, already deployed in warehouses, production plants etc.

Adversarial Attacks? Like removing a speed limit sign? Painting over lane markers? Dropping bricks off of overpasses? Throwing down a spike strip? Sugar in the gas tank?

Unless you're talking traditional computer security, which it doesn't seem like you are, these types of threats have not prohibited human drivers despite the fact that humans are very susceptible to "adversarial attacks" while driving too. Whether it's putting carefully crafted stickers over a stop sign to confuse a CNN or yanking it out of the ground to get a human driver killed.. you're talking about interfering with the operator of a moving vehicle... so what's the critical difference here?
And? Just because they read non-Epic game files without consent and do nothing, doesn't mean they're not going to pull a facebook.
That paper is about implementing branch cuts in a complex-valued function (e.g. complex square root), and doesn’t discuss real square roots.

In the context of that paper it seems to me that √(–0 – 0i) should be 0 – 0i and √(–0 + 0i) should be 0 + 0i, but under no circumstances should the result be –0 ± 0i, which is on the wrong branch.

The obvious extension to real-valued square root would be √(–0) == +0.
The easiest way to do it is follow my plans. The harder way to do it is watch the stock market and look into technical analysis. It takes a while but if you start with a small account you can look for an edge and utilize it. It takes a while and you have many losses early on and then over time you narrow it down to what works. I'm not sure if anyone can do it the same way I do but I don't know of a better way to answer your question.

Main items we focus on are price-action and price-volume. In essence, for every minute the price goes up, what's the volume? For every penny the stock goes up, what's the volume? For every 100,000 shares what's the change in price?200k? 300k? 1m? and so on. Also, weighted factors for all the different indicators, MA/SMA/CCI/RSI/VWAP being of most pertinence. Pitch fork trends weighted at a lower level. Also several other proprietary indicators based on stock correlation (i.e. BABA vs AMZN, if AMZN is moving down, BABA should as well because of what it relies on). Sentiment Analysis to look for bad news.
That's the fun part about this debate: there's data. It works.

I was doubtful before my local area banned them, now most people love trading a slight inconvenience for a lot less litter.

And then the next area to propose a ban has a similar debate, usually without considering the results of the previous experiment.
The general ability to understand others (and oneself) to the level of intentions etc is often referred to as Theory of Mind.
Seen from the task of autonomous driving, what is needed is a strong predictive model for what other cars/drivers are going to do, based on current observations. Considering that driving is a quite more narrow space than all possible human behavior, this is hopefully[0] solvable using something close to existing approaches.

0. Otherwise I don't think self-driving cars is happening soon.
"Fraud" is applicable to hacking contracts, not law in general. But yes, that's an example of what I meant by "fundamentals that undermine hacking".

Similarly, relying on technicalities you will still get tripped up by mens rea.

But other model-playing optimizations like tax avoidance are perfectly acceptable. As I said, "minor advantage" rather than "full compromise".
This reminds me of a book called The Power of Starting Something Stupid, by Richie Norton. The book tells several stories just like this one, where it seems like peers or others are criticizing your work as “stupid” but you get it done anyways because you know it is worthwhile, then finally the world rewards you handsomely for it.

I agree, I made that number up. I’m speculating that the average across the entire country is rather small, and that the primary mode of transport for the average person is a car.

But one question here is whether that matters at all? Even if the distance is much longer and doesn’t involve a car, isn’t a single use bag/carrier still ridiculously wasteful?
It would definitely need to be offset by subsidies, but maybe that could come in the form of something that people could claim every 5-20 years like a tax return.

It seems like we have a lot of levers to pull to make life easier on people doing things like that; tuition reimbursement, housing/food/course material subsidies, benefits like health care, child care, help with transit, etc.

But I guess you would have to look out for a resurgence of scammy public for-profit institutions.
Not really, the question is if kids can get just as smart without homework as with. Whether they get smart with more homework is irrelevant to that question, although it could tell us that what we do is worse than both alternatives.

> And for that matter that the "average driver" accident rates are skewed upwards by the number of incidents involving people who you'd never, ever volunteer to be driven by [in their state of intoxication].

And they include driving in a huge range of conditions and roads that driving automation does not function in.

The conditions in which automated driving technology gets used (good weather, highway driving) must have far lower rates of accidents than average.

Read my comment again. I didn't dispute that point; I was talking about carbon emissions and landfill space.
It matters how much they are paying everyone though. You can also spin it as Gitlab is subsidizing people in high cost of living areas... which is more the truth than your spin since in the end, if the lower cost of living person is being underpaid they wouldn’t be taking the job anyways.
They have the advantage that they can be used opportunistically. Huge pages require contiguous physical memory regions which may not always be available due to fragmentation. So the kernel converting allocations to huge pages on a best-effort basis gives you the benefit of huge pages without the hard errors and constraints that relying on huge pages reserved at boot time entails.

Also note that THP opt-in instead of opt-out is already possible. You just have to set the sysfs control to "madvise" instead of "always", many distros do this by default already.
"changing lanes without driver confirmation" is just another way to say "ran off the road and crashed".
