When I encounter a negative trigger, I focus on things on that list. I know whenever I am fully occupied with things on the list, the easier it gets to brush off/deal with whatever is building up on the negativity queue. The key for me was to actively/proactively add/subtract things on the list.
> They don't have FCSC protection, how is that a better thought-out offering for private customers?

Revolut started out as a "prepaid debit card for paying abroad", not as "your main bank acccount", but is closing the gap quickly and should soon switch over its customers to an EU-licensed bank entity.

I find Revolut to be better than Monzo in terms of features and costs, but it's not suitable to be used as the main bank account yet because of the lack of protection.
I agree. If a bank has physical branches to fall back on, they can squander the online/phone story. This has happened with another bank I use which has a website with a broken account creation form and phone lines that just die.

For most banks, they might as well not have any branches as I can't get to them at a reasonable opening hour and they have no incentive to change that.
The question of corellation between both aspects is definitely worth to be asked, and it's relevant.

>And also, yes, some consider relative wealth more important than absolute wealth; "I'd rather have $100 and my neighbor $10, than I have $150 and my neighbor $140."

I actually think that's a bad example, 'cause if I have 10x what my neighbor has, I can easily convert some of that wealth differential into real wealth for me in ways I couldn't if we were more equal. "Hey neighbor, would you like to mow my lawn for some money?" so in a real way, the neighbor example is more about how much you want local labor vs mass manufactured goods.

I'm still using an old 1B (512MB version) for Kodi, almost on a daily basis. Playing back stuff from an NFS share. I'm limited to 1080p but that's still fine with me, I'd need a TV upgrade first anyways.

It's showing its age though, and I had to hack up some stuff to use it properly:

I'm controlling Kodi via Yatse (Android app), and mostly just use the file mode to browse Movies and TV shows. I have them sorted and named properly anyways so that's not that much of an inconvenience to me. Using the fancy views that show artwork and IMDB metadata is still working but a little to slow.

But even in plain "file mode" Yatse was a little to slow and sometimes timing out when listing directories with 200+ items. This is where the hacky stuff comes to play: I built a simple proxy that intercepts the requests from Yatse and modifies them, namely, when Yatse is listing a directory it sets some field in the JSON that says "media type video" for example, when browsing for videos (forgot what the key is called exactly; currently at work). So I simply strip that key entirely from the request, and now listings take 1-2 seconds for large directories.

While I was at it I also started to intercept links to youtube videos and instead call youtube-dl to download them first and then have Kodi play them back via NFS. This way I get 1080p instead of just 720p and also have a history of everything I watched on YouTube, in case I can't find it anymore, or it gets deleted etc. It's pretty brittle since it doesn't properly track state or prevent you from triggering a second download while the first one is still active, also if you request a 50min video it will take a while until playback actually starts, since it needs to download it fully first. But at least it recognizes if a video has already been downloaded and just starts playback instantly. Turning this into a proper project is on my TODO list, but that list is mighty long.

Same here. I wonder if it's the courses we took. I did Mathematics and Computer Science. The only time I took notes it was a disaster. My notes were perfect, my recollection awful. I had to reread them to get any value.

The rest of the time I just sat in class and paid close attention, rarely noting down to look up some lemma or the other. Way better results. Instant recollection. I can still remember the Nullstellensatz vaguely and the room in which I first encountered it and where I was in it and that's almost a decade ago.
> All you've done here is show me that you don't know what the hell you are talking about.

Well, apparently you aren't familiar with the fact that progressives used to be very much in favor of eugenics (in the early 20th-c.), that progressive/leftist intellectuals and academics did support the Soviet system, that Maoist China was a huge influence on radical youth movements of the 1970s and 1980s that largely define what we think of as "progressive" today, that Pol Pot literally was introduced to extreme leftist politics by those same radical movements in the Paris of his day, etc. etc.

"Conservatives and traditionalists fight against social change and have to suck it up eventually" - is that supposed to be a problem? It's literally the definition of what conservatism is all about! Sure, some of them might have opposed abolitionism and universal suffrage, for a time (Though many didn't, least of all in a practical sense. Even Carlyle, as rabid as he was from a "modern" POV, understood that slavery was very much on its way out). But so what - conservatives also fought Mao and Pol Pot, and in this latter sense they were far more important!

A blunt question on that point: So what?

Let's say someone shares their card details with their workplace. For some reason beyond your or mine understanding. Which causes them, in a rush, to think "Ah, must be that, I'll drop the limit". Does this justify that person losing their money that was stolen from them via fraudulent charges?
I know there's a bit of scepticism about Monzo in particular, but here's the deal from my perspective as a customer and crowdfunder: it's a straightforward banking service, and has a great app (which is where I do basically all banking anyway). That's basically it. Fee-free foreign transactions are a nice positive too, though I'm not that bothered.

Some of the larger banks have begun introducing features to compete – stuff like being able to freeze and re-order cards. So that's good. At the point it was introduced though, the experience was notably better than any other option.

For me as a customer, the main goal of a retail bank is to store my cash, make it accessible, keep it secure, and notify me about transactions – basically, keep out of the way as much as possible. It's good at that, better than any other bank I've used, and I think that simplicity is underrated.

Same here. Something still prevents me from taking Monzo and similar banks seriously and manage my entire income on their accounts, though can't say what it is.

Maybe it's the "you can't possibly trust a bank that's not even profitable" despite all the effort of cutting costs, e.g. no walk-in offices and so on. That, coupled with being "ethical" as a selling point somehow doesn't sound great in the context of banking.
Could you point me to exact guideline? I fail to see it in the list.

Consider the following quote from your reference [2]:

(here "conformity factor" CF is the relative violation, so "0% conformity factor" means at the original limit, "100% conformity factor" means twice the original limit!)

>In 2017, the European Union will introduce testing in real-world conditions called Real Driving Emissions, using portable emissions measurement systems in addition to laboratory tests.[24] The actual limits will use 110% (CF=2.1) "conformity factor" (the difference between the laboratory test and real-world conditions) in 2017, and 50% (CF=1.5) in 2021 for NO
x ,[25] conformity factor for particles number P being left for further study. Environment organizations criticized the decision as insufficient,[26][27] while ACEA mentions it will be extremely difficult for automobile manufacturers to reach such a limit in such short period of time.[28] In 2015 an ADAC study (ordered by ICCT) of 32 Euro 6 cars showed that few complied with on-road emission limits, and LNT/NOx adsorber cars (with about half the market) had the highest emissions.[29] At the end of this study, ICCT was expecting a 100% conformity factor.[30]

EDIT: adding; to me it seems like the regulators knew all along about the defeat mechanisms, and the VW scandal is just the first step: removing plausible deniability of the regulator. Next steps will be when people realise the conformity factor of their car is increasing over time as the laws get stricter? ;) Then people will start seriously questioning the regulators who formally accept such nomenclature!
It's not a linear scale, it's just that we're still rounding to integers, so we're going from 7 to 5 instead of 4.9 and then to 3 instead of 3.5. Since we've long since departed from having node names correspond to any physical dimension or even a meaningful composite of critical dimensions, the only thing wrong with sticking to simple integer naming is that we might run out of smaller integers before we run out of ways to improve silicon fabrication.

Maybe you would do even better just imagining writing it down on paper or actively building mental representations.

But if it works well enough, why not? The act of writing notes may involve mental processing or not. If it's just a matter of concentration and focus, there might be better remedies.

I think the problem here is not that the clocks are out of sync, but rather that the actual clock frequencies are voltage-controlled.

- If I click a vessel and then "Past track", a line appears with the voyage but I cannot see details like e.g. speed. There is only a message: "Try the voyage data service...". For pure curiosity the prices are much to high: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/online-services/plans.

- If I wanted to see where a vessel has come frome, I would need last 30 days minimum as recreational boats often do pause at marinas/anchor.

Prices are much too high for occasional 'curiosity' looking. Maybe I'd pay up to 80/y, but not 140 and certainly not 470. The latter would be needed for voyage data older than 3 days. Nautical map overlay would be great, maybe I'd pay 50/y for this in addition.

Wonder if the service could distinguish between commercial ships and recreational motor/sailboats? Or maybe use a traffic limit to differentiate between professional/hobby usage?
>all that counts is that you call it AI even if it is a simple algorithm

Is that incorrect though? I think a lot of people here are making a lot of assumptions about a very vague and ill-defined term. To me it seems like AI is just a way of saying that a program is capable of making decisions. There is no implicit tie-in to machine learning or neural networks or anything like that. These decisions can come from 5 lines of "if" statements (as is the case with most video game AI).
What's the point of a banking app, if it doesn't show you the failed transaction after sending you a vague notification about a limit being reached (due to that transaction)?

It's weird to me that the focus is on Stavros not doing this or that, when the original failure was the bank's. If the notification had said "This transaction here failed because it hit the limit" none of this would have happened. If the app had shown that transaction in the list, none of this would have happened.

Yet here we are asking why the user didn't react perfectly to the failures of the bank. It's weird.

As no-one's answered this, I'll try though my area is DBs but certainly not ML.

AFAIK ML doesn't really care about the source of data so DB is irrelevant. The conjunction of DB and ML in your question makes me wonder if you're sort of confusing the two. AFAIK they are totally independent, though some DBs come with some data mining tools, which is ML eg. MSSQL (you can prob download an eval version for nothing. It's time limited though, 6 months or so).

But to repeat AFAIK ML and DBs are entirely different things.

If you want to grab a DB, well I've no experience with postgres but I've heard a lot that's good, so perhaps start here.
The exact opposite works for me.

Note taking massively helps me on both remembering and the level of attention I pay to the lecture itself. Without notes, my attention drifts and I might as well just be passively watching TV.

Like Hermitian909, I don't particularly care about the notes afterwards. They're sometimes handy for skimming over when prepping for an exam or reworking through an example of a half-understood concept, but for the most part I don't use them.

The 2018 MBPs also have a T2 security chip now, which intermediates all access to the drive. It has internal unremovable encryption keys which are paired with the drive, so even if you could move the drive to another machine, the data on it would be useless anyway.

Your data should never be held on the internal drive for more than a few seconds really. With a decent MDM solution, restoring the standard settings and applications should take no more than a few minutes. As such, in modern times, there should be no real use-case for moving the drive - just set up a new machine instead, more like the Chromebook way of thinking.
Yes, and even if you were to cover something with the surface area of a Tesla model S in triple junction GaAs pv cells, and park it in direct sun all day, you might collect a cumulative 25kWh of charge in a whole month. Basically the same as 25% of a single charge of the car.

If you want to have a pv powered electric car, install twenty 370W panels (72 x 156mm high efficiency monocrystallin silicon each) on your roof and feed the local grid utility.

Solar powered cars such as you see racing across Australia are special ultra lightweight research projects, stripped down to the bare minimum, and with motors/gearing that results in a time of something like 30 seconds for 0 to 100km/h.

If you want to do the rough math on an absolute perfect case for kWh per month, go to the NREL pvwatts tool online, plug in the numbers for a theoretical 1000W pv array (same as 4 x 250W panels) at your location. Look at the cumulative kWh production estimate per month. This would assume that the car spends 100% of its time outdoors in the sunlight.
My strong statement is first of all based on the specific act of note taking in the specific situation of lectures for the specific goal of learning.

You seem to conflate taking no notes with not listening. If the only point of the note-taking is to ensure the listening and mental engagement, then I doubt that's the most effective way.

The Heirloom project is a collection of utilities coming from open-sourced versions of Caldera and Sun code (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heirloom_Project). It's nice because it is very easy to bootstrap, even if nowadays it is unmaintained. It also features a lex and yacc that are written in plain C, without depending of themselves (well, lex depends on yacc, but at most one dependency is ok). It is not easy to use it to bootstrap flex, but it can be done. Basically you have to use an old enough version of flex (I am using 2.5.11) and modify its lexer so that it can be parsed by a simple lex that is not flex (plus some additional light patching of the C code). It is a bit tedious, but a rather mechanical task.

Flex 2.5.11 is rather old now. When I have time I will also add another stage to compile a more recent version. But I believe that flex 2.5.11 can generate the lexer of the latest flex release. Also, it seems that all flex versions can be compiled with a yacc that is not bison. This is what I recall from my experiments of a few weeks ago, that I still have not consolidated in a working script. Surprises might happen!

The other steps of the project are described in the README (where flex is not mentioned yet, but all the rest is). Later steps will be bison, as I said, and then who know. I should aim at Perl, which then would unlock autotools, but Perl itself has a lot of dependencies and I haven't yet begun unravelling them. Also bash and coreutils should be bootstrapped at some point, but for the moment dash and Heirloom can do their job without problems, so it is not a priority (although it might become at some point). Later targets will be binutils, gcc and glibc, but do not hold your breath. Eventually I would like to bootstrap Debian packaging tools and start building Debian packages. That might require that I train my offspring into programming and convince them to continue my mission.
