Spare me your dopamine whining. That's a weak-willed crutch for pussies that lack impulse control.

Much in the same way that social ineptitude gets reclassified as "autism" or what have you, so too is the biochemical overclinicalization of everything else under the sun.

Get a fucking grip. You are to blame. No one hacked your circuits.

That's how schizophrenics talk. Maybe you're just smoking too much legalized cannabis. Ever hear schizophrenics ranting crackpot nonsense about feeling their individual neurons misfire? That's what you fucking sound like. Come off it.

No one talks about dopamine, when they look at a DVD menu. So a chimpanzee can figure out an iPad. So what. No one hacked the chimp's neuro circuitry. If the chimp saw its reflection in a mud puddle, it would splash it.

Your brain isn't the gibson. And FAANG corporations aren't neuroscientists. They're just self-important morons, harping on about bullshit they dreamt up, talking out their ass during a TED talk.

But hey, keeping parping along with your sixth-grade biology vocabulary quiz show. Seratonin. Oxytocin. Boy you've got it all figured out.

No, I'm not a Russian bot. Yes, I'm heckling you on HN. HN needs to be heckled, you pretentious anuses. You know you sound like some sheltered boarding school preppies, right?
Surely your application/serving process is able to handle the request burst coming from any single user ? (If not, you have a bigger problem to solver first).

If so, I don't quite see why queueing is discussed as an option at all. Queueing means extra latency and worse user experience (not to mention DoS potential).

What you should be discussing instead is how to (auto-)scale your app and infrastructure to handle your users' requests.

> Most people have ones issued by banks

Mine was issued by Skatterverket which is the tax agency, no? Surely that's "Government issued ID".

In fact, I had to give them my fingerprint and iris scan when I got my card.

(Although I have been denied entry when coming back from Copenhagen with it; "It is not a travel document" was the reasoning which is completely against the Schengen agreement.)
I think the sponge still had the blood tss, if I am not mistaken.
Sure, but that's not the issue. You should be using a std::optional like e.g.

if (my_optional)
do_stuff(*my_optional);

Here's one (explicit)conditional.

However if the dereferencing, *my_optional, should be safe, it too would need to perform a conditional check behind the scenes. But it doesn't - as C++ places that on the programmers hand to not sacrifice speed

I think you need to read on a bit further. The very next section after the sentence you quoted is:

"We need to wrap this struct up into a higher-layer API that is safe for our users to call. As the driver author, we manually verify the unsafe code is correct, and then present a safe API for our users so they don't have to worry about it (provided they trust us to get it right!)."

Rust lets you write clearly defined unsafe code blocks. It's not a bug, it's a feature:

https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch19-01-unsafe-rust.html

It's worth reading through the whole Embedded Rust book even if you won't be implementing such software. It's interesting.

So you're never going to hold an EU passport or never enter the EU?

Do you feel more comfortable giving the same information to the US?
I travel a lot, and outside of the United States, countries have import taxes, especially on luxury goods. In some countries and iPhone Xs will cost $800 more than in the USA.

I have to visit the USA about 8 times per year, so every time I do I buy 10 phones in a state with no sales tax (usually Oregon) and make about $5k in profit selling locally (which does eat up a ton of time, but not $5k worth).

> mean that people from Oz/NZ often prefer to travel to Europe the other way around rather than risking US travel

I mean, going via the US is 6 hours longer compared to going via Asia.

Sydney > Dubai > London is ~23 hours. Sydney > LA > New York is ~23 hours, and then another 6 to get to London.
Purely as an outsider looking at the regular China tech posts with interest over the years, it feels like there's a common thread, where US tech giants look at the Chinese market and rub their hands with glee, expecting to simply place an office there and integrate as they do everywhere else, only to find an existing ecosystem they seemingly have no knowledge of - and instead of studying that ecosystem and improving their product globally they bow out when China doesn't seem to be as "easy" as first thought.

Obviously, this is a gross over-simplification of the situation, but it feels weird that FAANG-size tech companies seem to all be making the same mistakes by embedding their services into a packed marketplace and being arrogent enough to expect to beat pre-existing competition. Outsiders may claim (and rightfully so) that China has a bias towards Chinese companies, but this bias doesn't seem to be the reson why the likes of Amazon and Google fail in China.
Yes, this is also the case in Europe (EU passports go through automated gates very similar to the Australia/NZ ones). Your passport contains biometric information about your facial structure, and the facial recognition is used to verify it.

Given the somewhat-recent studies[1] which show that the vast majority of border guards (unless they happen to be "super-matchers") have a 1/7-or-worse failure rate when trying to check a person's passport photo, I think it's quite understandable to do the facial recognition electronically.

But such a system should only be used for immigration purposes (where identity verification is very important to get right), not for getting onto a plane or just coming into the waiting areas of domestic airports.

i was never a turbo pascal user, but my first real programming environment was borland's turbo c, a close relative. it had a great debugger that would allow you to run your app on your primary color monitor, and display the contents of the turbo debugger on your monochrome display. turbo debugger was also great for single-stepping your way through other people's programs in the same way.

back in the day, i wrote a VGA-based game that, if it detected a secondary monochrome display, would put up a whole bunch of real-time-updating graphics statistics on it. that made performance tuning a lot easier.

I am not a programmer, so I tried to find a tool for email signups, and Aiva looked nice at the time. Guessing from your reply, it is bad in some way, so I have turned it off. I do not need it. As for the rest of your question, I have made it clearer in the text on the deal dashboard. I borrowed your text, hope you don't mind.

My main idea is to find every single deal online that is labeled lifetime deal, and share it in a simple, searchable, sortable overview list. The list will contain my affiliate links, so I can hopefully some day earn more money from the site than I spend. If you have other suggestions to how to label things so people do not get fooled, let me know. If you think the best thing is to delete the site from existance, then I will actually think about doing so. I had a hope it was possible to show a list of links online, be they affiliate links, in some way so that it could still be useful. But maybe it is not.

True, but it was not adequately summarized in the article which is the topic of discussion, and this was the issue discussed in this subthread.

That’s not what I meant, or what anyone else in this subthread meant. I have no idea what you’re responding to.
> the lawsuit argues that Apple's "use of facial recognition software in its stores to track individuals suspected of theft is the type of Orwellian surveillance that consumers fear, particularly as it can be assumed that the majority of consumers are not aware that their faces are secretly being analyzed."

If the chinese government demands it, they will.
In several EU countries you're required to carry id at all times. In the US Green Card holders are required to carry the card at all times.
It is worth noting that while it's totally possible to fly domestically in Australia without having your ID checked, you're still required to have one.

I'm actually quite happy with the facial recognition cameras at the Australian border - they make things a lot faster than they used to be from my experience.
Well yes, because UK is a weird country in that you guys have no official ID system. People either use their driving licence or a passport, and neither is mandatory to have. Most other EU countries just issue everyone with an ID card so 100% of population is covered.
It is still possible to hold an EU passport which does not contain any biometric data, even though it's getting harder and harder and I suspect the still available loopholes will be eliminated pretty soon.

For example I live in an Eastern-European country that is also an EU member and I hold a passport which does not have any incorporated biometric data in it, but that only happens because I specifically chose a temporary (meaning one-year) passport instead of the normal 5-year or 10-year passports, the latter requiring you giving your biometric info away. As I was saying, I suspect this loophole will be closed pretty soon.
Neural networks are probabilistic. They output predictions and are rarely 100% confident. So when Tesla's visual neutral networks are assigning inferred labels to things like cars, bikes, pedestrians, road barriers, etc, there is always some chance, say, 0.1% that it's wrong.

If you have other sensors, like LIDAR, radar, and high resolution maps, then you can corroborate your predictions, so for example, if the visual system predicts a 99.9% chance you can make a safe right turn, checking the LIDAR and map will provide additional checks, even if your map is out of date. Consider:

1) camera system predicts you can make a right turn. You have no map, so you make it.
2) camera system predicts you can make a right turn, you have a map, the map says there's a wall there. You don't make the turn. If the map is wrong, you're still safe, you just missed your turn off.
3) camera system predicts you can make a right turn, you have a map, the map is out of date and says there's no wall there, but a new barrier has been erected and the map doesn't contain it. This is equivalent to situation #1
4) Same as #3 but you have SIDE RADAR, so you sense the barrier
5) Same as #3, but you have SIDE LIDAR, so you sense the barrier

The problem is, Tesla is not only going "all in" with their "we only need video cameras", but Elon Musk was asked directly at intersections if the lack of side radar was a problem, and he again fell back on "video is all you need", but if that's the case, why even have front radar?

Clearly, video is not enough, and if you have front radar, there's no reason to argue against side or rear radar, and by proxy, against LIDAR.

All of this comes down to the Tesla is shipped with a cheap and fixed sensor suite, they can't change it now, it's too late, and so they are trying to justify their previous design decisions with overconfident sales tactics and PR, and I think this is somewhat reckless and dangerous to the entire AV industry because the more Tesla's that crash and kill people, the more all AVs will be tarnished as dangerous by the public.

Musk is acting like Tesla is SpaceX and they can afford to blow up rockets or astronauts during iteration, but these are consumer products. People will trust these things to be safe, not to be "beta"
IIUC, you are suggesting that GitHub make new repos private by default, unless a permissive license is set.

This seems a reasonable balance.
... but where does the $1 billion damage come from?
Good luck with that! For instance "New EU regulations for transaction authentication which go into effect next year are expected by Mastercard to significantly increase the use of biometrics for purchases". You can be sure that eventually no one will have a choice if they want to lead any kind of normal life. Obligatory capturing of biometric data at many airports is just getting going.

For the ex-USSR - the Soviet Republic, this vision of the future would have been a dream come true.

I was rather shocked when I tried to get across from Copenhagen to Malmö with a Finnish national ID card, only to discover it wasn't valid valid for entering Sweden. Luckily they saw reason and let me through after a while but it must be horrible for the daily commuters.

When I lived in Copenhagen a few years back the commuters numbered in the 10000's. I can imagine that number has gone down a lot recently.

For context: many places around the US will separate food, drugs, and medical appliances (considered essential for life) from all other goods, taxing the former at 2% and the latter at something like 8-10% - Chicago, for example [1]. This 2% category often includes candy, soda, Viagra... in 15 states there are no restrictions, as long as it is consumable as food. Goods in the latter category are considered "luxury," so what's mentioned here is the battle against the luxury tax for products that are essential to a female's life.

Chicago, a small handful of cities and ten states have already eliminated this unfair burden on top of the average $18,000 spent on feminine hygiene over a lifetime [2].

But the most tragically comical story I've found about this is what happened in Utah - the all-male panel rejected eliminating the tax, citing that they would need to recoup those tax funds from other sales, and that it was "unfair to tax the whole population for something that only affects half of it." The representative sponsoring the bill keeps trying every year, and every year the all-male committee continues to say No to her...

> I thought Tumblr's 'adult content' ban was due to the Apple appstore refusing to host the app?

No - that ban was because of child pornography, not adult content. Tumblr were apparently working on the adult content ban well before that happened; consensus being that it's likely to avoid problems with SESTA-FOSTA[1].

In the Nordic countries, ID isn't mandatory, and apart from a few border crossings between Denmark and Sweden, there are no border controls either. Apart from the aforementioned border controls, citizens of other Nordic countries aren't required to carry a passport or a national ID card, but should carry some kind of identification on them.

In practice, that means you just carry your regular driver's license in your wallet when crossing the border.

I hear there's a similar setup in the Benelux countries, so ID is definitely not mandatory in the entire EU.

I didn’t know this was still possible. I used to fly Nottingham <-> Glasgow and it was just like getting on a train or coach. I had wondered why it needed to any different now but I see that it’s because the terminal in EMA is now both for internal and international.
And often not even then in my experience - T5 Heathrow is where (maybe) all BA's internal flights leave from and a huge amount of their international. Same security, same lounges, same terminal - only time ID is needed is before getting on the plane internationally (or at the Visa-Check desk if that applies to your destination).
Mind you a I read something about them taking a photo of you at security for internal flights, and 'assuring' you it's deleted once the flight has left.
Yet another step to make things more straightforwardly hackable for interested actors.

Sorry for the cynicism, but I can't help thinking that all this digitalization and automation is just plain blessing for foreign intel agencies, if not the main goal.
