Hahaha yeah right. If you can navigate the dark patterns to find the links to the opt outs from tracking then click through to 100 other websites and find their own opt outs (if they exist). Then trust them that they’re actually going to comply, won’t accidentally lose your settings etc.

Browser extensions to block them in the first place are still much more effective.

The small island nation as tax haven is more of a stereotype than an absolute truth.

If you look at it objectively, most observers say the US is either the biggest or second biggest tax haven in the world.

I meant the p-value comparison to cutoff there. It is the test on probability of data being observed given that null hypothesis is true and error model matches your assumption, typically assumed normal or studentized.

Such as by chance or because the alternate hypothesis is bunkum or because your experiment lacks power. (It does not distinguish between these, and middle item is only minimally handled by most waste of obtaining it, esp. not by Fischer's or ANOVA which are facts about data only, using error in measurement model.)

Thus p-value is a statement about validity of data (type 1 error, false positive) and maybe about the null hypothesis as a secondary notion.

(E.g. about the control group of you use that as reference group for null.)
Fried pork is the national dish of Denmark. They eat a lot of pork.

Their own official statistics [1] show 54.6kg/capita (120lbs) in annual pig meat consumption, which would put them at a solid #1 in the pork.org table. However, they admit that the statistics are probably about twice that of the real consumption due to border trade. Realistically they are placed similar to the US.

Ergo, your take is based on a flawed assumption.

However it violates the principle of least astonishment. How come a button inside .header differs from the button inside a .footer, then where are the differences defined, inside the button.scss or header.scss? Then one must take into consideration CSS Specifility and sprinkle !important everywhere.

Instead, use modifier (in BEM) or create two buttons (.header-button and .footer-button) or create 2 utility class (.is-header-btn, .is-footer-btn) or just use TailwindCSS and you're good to go for all kinds of requirements, without ever resort to !important
This is definitely not true in the UK - cooking with Lard was a huge thing in my grandparents generation, but almost unheard of amongst my peers. I'm 40.

What has changed is people's views of what's healthy, and Lard is considered hilariously unhealthy, to the point of it being a joke.

But people used to deep or shallow fry with it, use it in pastry, cook with it in all sorts of ways. It was also a poverty food during and after WWII - bread and lard is cheap enough and calorie dense enough to keep workers going through the day.

When I bought my first screwdriver, a lot of problems seemed like they should be solved by tightening, loosening or adding screws to things.

Lots of problems I had couldn't be solved with a screwdriver, many more shouldn't be.

This came up for Certificate Transparency. CT uses Merkle hash trees to provide an immutable, cryptographically-verified Log of things it has been shown - in the original application those are X.509 certificates from the Web PKI ("SSL Certificates"). None of the component parts are even modern let alone unprecedented, although arguably it would be less practical without elliptic curve crypto, but nothing like CT itself had ever been done before, and its designers deserve significant praise.

And in the subsequent years as CT was successful we saw not only uptake of CT itself which was good, but also when there was some other problem people would propose solving it with this new magic toy - let's have Whatever Transparency. None of those went anywhere, because the unique recipe for CT is not a universal multi-tool, it solves one very specific problem very well indeed and that's fine.

Black-and-white solutions don't work in the real world.
Been doing sales/solutions engineering for the last 5-6 years. You can find how some companies describe the role:

https://careers.google.com/stories/google-sales-engineering-...

https://www.facebook.com/careers/life/solutions-engineering-...

https://builttoadapt.io/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-pivotal-platf...

Pros:

+ A lot of customer interaction. Could help you boost communication, presentation and sales skills if you want to start consulting

+ Quite a dynamic role, your agenda is not planned for next weeks but gets filled pretty fast with RFPs, Workshops, Demos, Proof of Concepts, etc.

+ As you are working in between of Sales, Product and Support/Delivery teams - that gives you a good perspective to provide valuable feedback across the company

+ Travel (can get boring after couple years though, and check with your partner if he/she is ok with that)

Cons:

- Some organizations are doing (Enterprise) Sales in old school way, in that case, Sales may just dump on your work they don't want to do like filling RFPs (Excel file with 100+ line of questions) or doing standard demos

- Your technical skills may stagnate as you would be less hands-on, but that depends on the type of the product (e.g. SaaS vs SDKs, Platforms)

- In terms of career development, you actually would have to choose if you want to go back to tech focusing on Solutions Architecture, or to Sales/Management roles

Before agreeing to the role - discuss the actual responsibilities (and ask those to be put on the job description), as well as the percentage of travel.

When a state trades in excess freedom for order, overriding due process, presumed innocence and human rights, it becomes itself a criminal actor.

In the days of film photography this was an important issue - negative/slide film chemistry had a huge impact on the output of your work.
I used to shoot a lot of Fuji Velvia due to its excellent contrast and reasonable resolving power. It was terrible for portraits, though, of any race - it picked up too much red in both light and dark skin tones, and the result rarely looked good. However I definitely think that it was true back then that more portrait orientated film chemistry was poorly optimised for those of African descent or with similar skin tones.

I'm less certain it's such an issue today. Some cameras have face recognition built in as a focus/af assist, and I suspect that these are better with some faces than others (most consumer cameras are developed in asia so I'd except them to do best with asian faces, but as I don't use this sort of feature I don't know). Other than that, I'm struggling to come up with a way that bias - in the way I'd define it - could creep in. In-body JPEG colour profile perhaps, but most serious photographers don't depend on that, and it can be rectified in post anyway.

On the other hand, there's the unfortunate technical problem that dynamic range is limited, and having a subject with very large contrast between skin and clothing brightness is technically challenging to shoot, especially in a situation like the one illustrated where the subject can move around so you have limited fine grained control over lighting.

I'm totally on board with presenting the former film chemistry issue as bias - but that's pretty much just historical at this point. The number of people shooting events on slide film is pretty close to zero these days. There's also very little if any investment into film chemistry as a consequence of this.

The second issue irks me a bit. If you have very dark skin and wear very light clothing, or very light skin and wear very dark clothing then it's going to be more of a challenge to capture you effectively. That's physics not racism, and conflating the two issues feels a bit disingenuous to me.

This is interesting, I've always thought that makers of image capture equipment were striving to create technology to capture the world, as it is, without any bias towards any particular subject.
Maybe, in a way they were, and they simply went for the lowest hanging fruit first? or maybe they simply put most effort where they believed that there would be most gain for least effort.
The reason why they started at one point is not really important, the important thing is that they continue to strive to improve. Not because some group of people are excluded, but because, from a technical standpoint, they're not done before they can capture and display an accurate, neutral, non-biased, factual representation of reality. Same goes for audio, I'm sure getting voice right had priority over music, and that some styles of music had priority over others, but, we're not done before all SOUND, not just music, can be captured and represented accurately.

There can exist a mutual beneficial symbiosis between companies and the open source community. But at some point the symbiotic behavior can become parasitic, causing harm. I think it's super important when such behaviors get pointed out (here at HN).

This article I read yesterday has one interesting take on what an OS designed on modern programming principles could look like. It has a loose treatment of technical FP terms, but the insights behind it are at least thought-provoking.

I believe we're in for a redesign of OS architectures, now that the 50's assumption of a single machine with a single OS kernel running all programs (or the 60's equivalent of several few mainframes communicating through a slow network) is no longer the main paradigm.

I have 2 jobs (say 55h away from home, but one being on duty even though on location, i get to sleep a bit) yet I still wish I could have more work or work more. For various reasons :

* if you have to work that much then you probably are doing something important, or your opinion is needed on various things. Either way you feel important and valued (even if it's complete bullshit in the end)

* keeps you from boredom. I wouldn't waste my time like I still manage to do.

* satisfies my own masochism. I just like to suffer, somehow

* take up the challenge. I am confident that I'm a rather quick thinker and that I could do it marginally faster than most.

* hopefully pay follows. And the experience is always valuable for later employment.

I really dream of drowning in emails and an elongated to do list. Alas none of it at 27 and I fear it's too late for me, and that I'll just be a mediocre unnecessary worker all my life.

Calling it "customer data" is a stretch.

The software in Tesla cars can do the following:

- send pictures of the road taken at random intervals
- record and upload clips of scenes / objects that match criteria pre-programmed by Tesla
- record and upload clips during error events (e.g. when a driver over-rides the software, which implies that the software made a bad call)
- record and upload clips when software is running in shadow mode and detects that it mis-predicted the behavior

And yes, this data is added to training set.

Uploaded data consists of short, compressed video clips during abnormal events. It's not full feed therefore not "gigabytes of data".

The user agrees to this in the software, so yes, it's legal.

And in the meantime Samsung's credibility will sank. I don't buy it that they did it to showcase the technology. They could have done the same with a prototype showcased to a selected few. They went loud in order to awe the public and it blew in their face. Which sends the message that they don't really care about quality. Good luck the next time they'll try to sell a high-end phone. Perceived value is very important for a company's image.

Germany has such a thing with membership in a criminal or terrorist organization in §129 stgb. Being part of such an organization is in itself a crime. So individual members dont have to commit any crimes them self to be prosecuted. How ever I only know of the paragraph being used against terrorists, as well as outlawed political associations.
