That's not what I said.

You can have automatic braking without having such an unsafe system.

Other brands do...

It isn't ethical, not that I expect them to care. But I don't think a sane company would play so loosely with peoples lives when they are fully dependent on complete trust when they launch something with full automation.
My manager now tries to micromanage.

Which basically means: I manage bad, everyone at the team thinks I hate them and I promote someone with no Dev experience ( the tester) as teamlead to shift the blame to them.

When I tried to tell him this is ridiculous situation ( the Teamlead is 100% dependant on him for everything and brings no solutions to the table). He just straight off told me that he didn't care ( 12th June, so it's 2 weeks now - it was a 1 on 1 meeting, so I only have my word, urgh)

The author has a lot more empathy than other managers (y)
If we have a reproducibility crisis in psychological research, it seems to me like one of the best things we can do to address it is to incentivize people to try reproduce other group's findings. It's not sexy and it won't earn headlines, but it is important. The absolute best way to kill such an effort is for a journal that published a bad study to refuse to even consider publishing a study that refutes it.
7.4 Tons of Venezuela’s Gold Landed in Africa–and Vanished
Maybe I'm easily pleased, but I quite liked Wandering Earth. It's extremely far fetched and a bit cheesy, but the story races along, there are loads of good set pieces, the characters are alright (watching with subtitles I think I missed out here) and the special effects are well done. It has a few Liu "tropes" in there that reminded me of 3 Body, like "Project X has now become Project Y", authority is surprisingly organised and has a grand plan, while in the end the job depends on the brilliance and self sacrifice of individuals.

This is exactly why I love the Bay Area so much - the people.
Except, we also commonly recognise a "Napoleon complex" in many small men alongside the well known "Gentle Giant" among many large men.

And I believe this alternative to be intuitively true.

Disclaimer: I'm 6'5" (1.95m) tall, and my son (who is larger than me) is one of the gentlest and most unassuming persons you could ever meet.
That may be. The word we use is more a property of the ventilation system ... that you blow as much air into the house as out of it, active airflow in both directions. (As opposed to older ventilation where only exhaust has a fan.) This facilitates plugging in a heat exchanger.

To be clear I did not mean HVAC, which requires (some) energy in itself.

At home I do not have HVAC. However, the outbound air passes through a rotating metal structure that sucks up the heat from outbound air and releases it into the colder inbound air. Just using the temperature gradient that is there naturally. Passive energy transfer.

Same principle can be used with hot water (e.g. from showers).

Then one can put HVAC on top of this for active warming.
Three Body Problem (Physics)
So, I see:

Python 3.7.3 (default, Mar 27 2019, 09:23:32)
[Clang 9.0.0 (clang-900.0.39.2)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> len("ẅ")
2

I wonder why this is? Is the Clang version relevant here?

EDIT: Your "ẅ" doesn't seem to be the same as the OP's "ẅ", although they look the same at first glance.

>>> "ẅ".encode('utf-8')
b'w\xcc\x88'
>>> "ẅ".encode('utf-8')
b'\xe1\xba\x85'

EDIT 2. More info:

>>> import unicodedata
>>> w1 = "ẅ"
>>> w2 = "ẅ"
>>> unicodedata.name(w1)
'LATIN SMALL LETTER W WITH DIAERESIS'
>>> unicodedata.name(w2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: name() argument 1 must be a unicode character, not str
>>> unicodedata.name(w2[0])
'LATIN SMALL LETTER W'
>>> unicodedata.name(w2[1])
'COMBINING DIAERESIS'

So the second version (w2) does seem to consist of two separate "characters", LATIN SMALL LETTER W and COMBINING DIAERESIS, which is apparently not the same as the single-character LATIN SMALL LETTER W WITH DIAERESIS. I guess these are actually Unicode code points and not so much "characters" to a human reader, but as another poster pointed out, what the number of characters should be in a string isn't always clear-cut.
Actually no, I'm understating the CoL differences. I have relatives in both types of location, so I know. I'll pick some examples from their neighborhoods. (and yes, they do have jobs, including tech jobs) It's making excuses to say that "no one realistically expects to live in a giant McMansion in the Bay Area or Manhattan as a middle-class person", because that sucks. Real houses rent for more than double your guess. Don't expect me to believe that you won't be "surrounded by opioid and meth addicts" in the Bay Area. There are needles, tents, and poop on the streets.

In the middle of San Francisco, at 200 Amber Dr, a house sold in January for $2,450,000. It isn't anything special, at just 2020 square feet. It, frankly, looks ugly and unlivable. It's some old trash from 1962 on a lot that is measured in square feet! Converting that 3149 square feet gives just 0.07229 acres. It's a joke of a little house that should have been bulldozed by 1985. BTW, it would rent for about $7,500 per month.

In much of the country 1/20 of that ($122,500) would get you a similar house on a 0.14 to 0.30 acre lot. Let's see...

You can get 3021 square feet on 0.68 acres for $130,000 in Cocoa, FL. It's older. OTOH, you get more bathrooms. Note the 50% extra floor space and nearly 10x property size.

You can get 1652 square feet for $122,900 in Melbourne, FL. It's being built in a 55+ community by a developer. It'll come with all sorts of community extras, including a lake for fishing.

You can get 4992 square feet on 0.3 acres for $150,000 in Georgetown, KY. There are 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. It comes with beautiful wood floors, high ceilings, a partially spiral staircase, and a fireplace. It's right on Main Street.

You can get 1904 square feet on 5 acres for $89,900 in Georgetown, KY. It's a manufactured home. There is a brook (stream) on the property! You could go hunting with an AR-15 in your backyard. Again, it's 5 acres, and look at that price.

You can get 1987 square feet on 0.1436 acres for $134,900 in Fairborn, OH.

You can get 1976 square feet on 0.41 acres for $115,000 in Beavercreek, OH.

You can get 1920 square feet on 0.1015 acres for $48,900 in Dayton, OH. It does have that icky city feel, being 500 feet from a large park and 750 feet from a damn bus stop, but evidently you wouldn't object.

BTW, while looking for houses I stumbled across trash in Dayton, OH. One is a 4-unit place with the units renting for $300 to $390 per month. The whole thing can be owned for $99,900. A similar place going for $129,900 has 3 units renting for an average of $458 per month.

Has this been reviewed by lawyers outside the U.S.? Section 6, the 18 U.S.C. 1833(b) notice seems extremely specific, and I'm worried that there might be other subtleties that make this unusable outside the U.S. and/or other required items for the NDA to function outside the U.S.

Microservice Architecture: The Real Challenge
How giant it actually is?
I read the Readme. Still not sure about the problem it solves. What’s the use case?
I've often wondered the division of effort at a place like intel between the 'circuit design', and the 'physical stuff'.

This Chinese design effectively only does the circuit/logic and above.
No it doesn't.

On the Model S page one feature is called "Autopilot: Future of Driving".

The Autopilot page then leads with a still shot of a driver not touching the wheel. If you press play it says "He is not doing anything. The car is driving itself".

Sure, about 2/3 page lengths further down, hidden in the middle of a paragraph, it caveats it. But unless you read the fine-print, it's advertising hands free driving.
The fact there's not much else to do in this place, the land purchase must have been dirt-cheap compared to ground-level installations in downtown Paris. So, if they needed to be close to decision centers, that's a very good choice.

Yeah, that's what the word means in scientific circles. Please refer to the following list when confused:

> It's what they do.

Indeed, legally and ethically Science is free to do what they want and should be held so by all external parties.

However, we, its consumers, are equally free to no longer pay attention to it, since its quality as a scientific journal is somewhat suspect. Anyone who truly believes in science (with a small s), ought to appropriately lower the amount of prestige with which they view science after such accusations.
“Is anyone willing to defend the idea that any human being is really able to provide society with labor that is 300 times more useful than another's?”

Not too hard to come up with examples. A Western Medicin doctor (vs. some homœopathy ditto). An inventor of something useful, etc.

It’s also weird to compare a few CEOs with all farmers and ask who we’d miss more. A fair comparison would be a to compare the same amount of people in the two groups and ask who you’d miss more.

There are some intriguing issues around inequality. I think there are some obvious problems with how the US and other countries are wired, but this article isn’t intellectually honest enough to provide an interesting argument.
You’ve misdiagnosed the problem. The best thing we can do is incentivize research psychologists to produce robust research in the first place. This is unfortunately at odds with publishing lots of papers, making money off pop-psych books and giving TED talks.
Depends on what you mean by "latest". R6RS is arguably huge. That's why they decided to split R7RS in two, a small core which is done and a huge version which, ironically, is still in the making.

Science cares, clearly!
If you're already on that ship, sure. As a planned action... you can be somewhere else instead.
as well as top sub-discipline journals, which often have an impact factor of around 4-5, but within the sub-discipline e.g., developmental psychology, these journals has both respect and influence
And another about how the Rothchilds had a better messaging system (flags? Burning pyres? Pigeons?) after the of the battle of Waterloo and traded British Government bonds on the London exchange after the win (first openly selling to head fake the market which knew of their messaging time advantage and then buying through nominees in the ensuing panic)
I think you've been here long enough to know that a phrase like "automatically and without exception" is likely a poor interpretation of what the parent poster meant with "standard household activity".

I was born and raised in Florida. In Miami I lived in a 1950s house designed w/o A/C and with effectively no insulation. In Tallahassee I lived in a 1970s house designed for A/C. But we didn't have money, so we didn't run the A/C unless it was nasty hot.

The differences were remarkable. For the same temperature and humidity, the Miami house was much more comfortable. The vernacular architecture of high ceilings, open crawlspace, and massive amounts of windows meant there was still cooling with any sort of breeze.

With the Tallahassee home, the building was designed to insulate, to keep the A/C power bills low. The windows were small, there wasn't much cross-breeze even with all the windows open.

A/C systems include dehumidifiers, and the building has a vapor barrier to prevent the high outside humidity from coming in.

But w/o the A/C's dehumidifier, standard household activity like breathing, cooking, and showering raise the inside humidity more than the outside, with a slow rate of equilibriation.

We finally kicked on the A/C when, among other things, yes, mold started to form.

Of course 'lifestyle choices impact details like heat and humidity'. So does architecture, as I just pointed out. But btbuildem said 'standard' and 'usually'.
The same happens to CPU instruction sets. Old stuff should get deprecated once better features are added (letting you write more concise and efficient code) but you can't deprecate that as it would break too much legacy code people rely on.

> It wouldn't exactly scale.

Am I the only one here that thinks that there should be no overlap between the set of 'studies that are completely non-replicated' and 'the set of studies that need to be distributed at scale'?
Reminds me of the somewhat famous Slaughterbots video from the Stop Autonomous Weapons initiative: https://youtu.be/9CO6M2HsoIA
I would say virtually all of the difference is because autopilot is engaged when driving is easy and humans intervene often. Look at the forums and you’ll see tons of stories of shadow braking and lane merging problems.
Second that. That was such a great watch!
All this hoopla about state level actors and un bans and scavenging the tech, but realistically speaking of any of us really really needed to, we could probably bolt a gun to a drone and use pytorch/tensor flow/whatever to make a reasonably effective LAWS. Sure a country could do it better than me, but you don't need Manhattan project resources to do this. The cats out of the bag. Pandora's box is open. The horse has already bolted
Thank you !
That really made my day !
It really depends what "few" means.

A benevolent dictator would do a nationwide cost-benefit analysis, and decide if 30 families having no sleep for a week outweighs 100,000 people getting to work 10 minutes faster for the next decade.

While sometimes our existing legal system makes the same choice as our fictional benevolent dictator, sometimes it doesn't because rather than looking at the big picture, it gets tied up with nuances of wording of ordinances and precident written decades earlier without knowledge of the current situation.

Whenever that happens, on average, people's lives get worse and the economy weaker, compared to an identical country which made the benevolent dictator choice.
Probably the same thing that stops them from assuming that anything with "spank" in the name is a reputable financial institution.
Intellectual conservatism - at least under certain definition - is tricky to defend. When there is a choice between "progress" - moving forward - and "stability" - avoiding changes - staying implies perceived perfection, which doesn't seem particularly intellectual. Progress doesn't just mean "change by all means", but conservation does mean "reject change", otherwise there would be no difference to talk about.
Pretty sure there were phone lines just like everywhere. Maybe no cable tho?

Back in Lithuania cable was installed everywhere in early 90s, but cable internet didn’t catch on.

He's not some random person. He's the CEO and driving force behind a company that is investing billions in getting to FSD.

If he "thinks" it is achievable with that short timeframe, he must have a project plan with milestones being predictably achieved in accordance with that schedule.

If instead there's no such plan, or the progress is not in line with prior internal expectations, he doesn't "think" it is achievable, he wishes it, and it is unlikely to be achieved by that time.

Whether it is a promise or not isn't the point!
It’s “Ok” until you’re involved in a fatal accident and Tesla blames you for not having your hands on the wheel. Doesn’t matter that Elon himself has demoed it hands off, each of the autopilot fatalities was the fault of the driver.

There are reasons to avoid being called racist, or not being PC, but anybody can call anybody anything - it's the arguments that matter. Fearing participating in a discussion and maintaining views carries a possibility of being wrong without correction, which should reasonably be avoided.

Unfortunately we don't have ways of reasonable exchange of opinions in our populism times.
>Experts in machine learning and military technology say it would be technologically straightforward to build robots that make decisions about whom to target and kill without a “human in the loop”

I'd like to know who those experts are because like almost always in these ethical debates about autonomous systems, the first thing I notice is the grandiose claims being made about the technology itself.

It is highly non trivial for humans to make calls about civilians, targets, journalists and so on with high fidelity in war zones.

And even if the classification was possible, what stops bad actors from the trivial countermeasures of handing civilians weapons or using disguise, or even adversarial methods to fool autonomous systems? That's not something any existing technology can cope with, it requires extraordinary human judgement.

Just like with autonomous driving technology I'm almost more afraid of the notorious overselling of dumb machines than I am of ethical debates.

The Era of Cryptocurrency Coming Back
Outside the USA, I live near a subway line, and every single night for the last 10 years I hear hammering and yelling.

The subway needs disassembly to check it isn't worn out yet, which involves big sledgehammers to dislodge bits of track. Due to strict safety rules, they have to do that once per 10,000 wheels passing over the track, which is every day.

Does it reduce my quality of life? Yes. But not having the subway working efficiently and safely would have a much bigger impact, so is a cost I pay for a bigger benefit elsewhere.
You don’t even need to get this speculative. All of the standards that both private and public sector systems must comply with are publicly available. I’ve worked with Fedramp service providers that handle varying levels of sensitive government information, they comply with the same NIST standards that you and I can download from their website. The NSA is mandated the inform large portions of those standards under their Information Assurance mission. If the NSA is tricking you and I into using compromised crypto, then they are also forcing huge amounts of federal systems to do the same.

How and why I built my first mechanical keyboard
There's kinda a flip side of this in modern life too - which is the getting away with murder that goes on in commerce and other organisations. By this I mean an executive or engineer can do something exploitative and unprofessional - load a company with debt, release a tranche of necessary employees, increase a dividend... or for engineers, make false claims about business cases, delivery schedules or technical capabilities. There are no consequences (provided the timing is done cleverly), a bubble of sucess is created - the act is lorded or claimed on a CV and the person moves on and up the ladder. When the company gets into trouble or the project catastrophically failes the exited individual is rarely confronted with this, and if they are they simply say "it was great when I left - I don't know what went wrong but they really blew it!" There is no community of disapproval, and there is no genuine mechanism of reputataion management.
Shockingly there are other was to provide services and produce goods than for profit corporations.
It isn’t safe at all, please please no one ever do this. People have died on autopilot and sleep may have been involved. Just because your car won’t kill you for the first hour of sleep does not mean that it won’t at some point over the next few years. Auto accidents are actually pretty rare things to individuals and it’s very easy to normalize extremely unsafe behavior.
While I think you are right about this comparison, I still believe the initial hypothesis is a good one: "Does anyone deserve to have a billion dollars?"

No matter what the rest of the article tells us or asks (because there is just no definitive answer) we have to see if there is moral/logical arguments why people should have so much more than others in a world where people still starve and children can't afford to go to school.

Some of those super rich people didn't even earn that money themselves, others don't deserve it just because of the way they got it.
