There was a camera-spotting movement in Belgium some years ago. Basically people started marking all known cameras on a map. I think people gave up once they realized the sheer impossible scope of it.

Most cameras are too high up to reach anyway. A can of spray paint on a stick might be more effective, but that will almost certainly lead to vandalism charges.
The `will-change` property is just a flag for the browser to move the element to its own layer, it does not fix the rendering issues. I tried all fixes I could find on the internet, nothing worked. Just Google for "blurry animation chrome".

Some suggested fixes are:

-webkit-font-smoothing: antialised;

backface-visibility: hidden;

transform: translateZ(0);

-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased;

But most of the times they don't do anything or just make things worse. The only solution is usually to move your elements fractions of a pixel until Chrome is happy. The problem is that if you have a responsive website (or a container that is scaled with a transform), it's impossible to have all elements pixel-perfect aligned on all resolutions. Although they look fine when rendered normally, when adding animations things will get blurry. And because it does not happen in other browsers, it means it's not a limitation of the GPU or monitor to display sub-pixel content.

I'd say one important point is that, in many places, public transportation is inadequate, completely overfilled, or both. If people are expected to move from cars to public transportation, many places just don't have the infrastructure to accomodate that transition. I live in Cologne. While we do have public transportation that allows you to reach most places, it's already at a point where the city wouldn't be able to cope with eliminating cars. Car-sharing, escooters, etc., these could be considered necessary extensions to public transport and enable car-users to transition, even if these options aren't entirely as green as using trains or buses would be.

Reguarding Hollywood and the show business generally speaking, there are two exceptions (that I know of) that reinforce the rule: the TV series “Person of Interest” [1] which started airing in 2011 and of which I’m reminded every time when I read articles like these (they stopped it in 2016, probably what had started out as an almost SF show had gotten too close to real life) and the excellent “Enemy of the State” [2], by Tony Scott, filmed in 1998, just about as the dot-com craze was beginning to take shape and when the Western governments didn’t know exactly what to do about this Internet world.

But ignoring these exceptions you’re totally right, of course.

>This is why many Americans won’t give their guns away..

...but the way the U.S. laws are written, it's quite illegal to take up arms against or try to depose/overthrow the United States Government - no matter how totalitarian and authoritarian it might get.

In fact, nothing in the Bill of Rights or the Consitution or the U.S. Code guarantees such right[s].

This is not to mention the reality that the arms controls would make it seem like the citizens are bringing paper swords to gunfights nor how catastrophic those casualties might be.

Packing Advice for Backpacking
We consider ourselves the heirs of the enlightenment and renaissance, so we continue their tradition of looking down on the Middle Ages, and we think of it as a rational time of progress. This despite the fact that both time periods brought plenty of irrational behavior, with things like alchemy to occultism to witch hunts, and also brought fun things like slavery and racism (earlier people made differences between people of course, but not yet based on race and skin color). But we prefer to forget all that and pretend the Middle Ages was the backwards, superstitious time, despite it being the time during which the Church outright said and taught that witches and demons and magic are just nonsense.
Yup. Apparently it's fine to spy on everyone else, everywhere else. Just not on US soil. Wiretapping everyone's communications, forcing SWIFT to forward details of everyone's bank transactions to the NSA. Because apparently the 7 billion non-Americans are all potential terrorists or some such nonsense.
This very much depends on specific threats, opponents, risks, and the interactions of these: your (perceived, actual) threat model.

Some years back as a member of a third-party services provider I had to sit through the e-learning session of a very large financial services provider. The course (tediously boring, natch) established three tiers of information importance, with the highest being not consumer information, but the organisation's own marketing and product plans.

Which is precisely what you're going to find in a Jira or equivalent project planning trove.

The risks of a lawful competitor running across this are ... reasonably low in many, though not all cases (see the Waymo smart car case for risks involved), though there are certainly cases of corporate espionage.

And petty criminals are somewhat unlikely to see much use from this.

But, to draw from recent HN posts: the ability to specificaly target developers to drop malicious payloads, for foreign governments to exfiltrate technologies or identify individuals to target for enhanced surveillance, to blackmail, to thwart or confuse plans, etc., all exist.

Information of itself is not power, but information with both the impunity to acquire it and the ability to act on it most certainly is.

And that's where Jira-class risks are significant.

Transparency is not a passive feature, it requires active and vigilant maintenance to be effective. In this case, any and all access to any and all instances of any and all imagery must be controlled and accounted for in perpetuity or you lose transparency.

Allowing a system like this to be implemented under the guise of 'full transparency' is like a political trojan horse. All it takes is a loss of priority in that objective by the same or subsequent administration and you're left with a snake that you can't get back into the bag.

If a dictator is bad, the citizenship has almost no method of improving the situation. A benevolent dictator may be the best form of government, but there is no reliable way of ensuring it will be attained.

Very nice! A key attraction of pure Prolog code is indeed that it can be evaluated in different ways to obtain better termination and performance characteristics, and to derive more semantic consequences of programs. The equation "Algorithm = Logic + Control" indicates this ability to provide and use different ways of control to evaluate the logical meaning of Prolog code.

These slides seem to focus primarily, and in fact exclusively, on an important control mechanism called SLDNF resolution (SLD resolution with negation as failure):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SLD_resolution

This is the standard execution method of Prolog.

There are other ways to execute Prolog code too though, notably SLG resolution. SLG resolution is also called tabling, and it is provided by an increasing number of Prolog implementations and also in different variations. SLG resolution is a control strategy that terminates in many cases where SLDNF resolution does not terminate.

For example, the Prolog predicate

a :- a.

terminates (and fails) with SLG resolution, but not with SLDNF resolution.

Note that Prolog is restricted to least Herbrand models. This is different from answer set programming (ASP), where you get all models. For example, the above program has two models in ASP (and in logic) namely one where a is true and one where a is false, but only one least Herbrand model (where a is false).

A common criticism of Prolog is that is "confined to depth first search", but that is not the case: You can reason about Prolog code in many different ways, and also execute it with iterative deepening, for example. This is in fact a major attraction of Prolog, not available in most other programming languages.

However, the more impure constructs you use, the more this flexibility shrinks. The ability to use different control mechanisms is a strong argument to use, as far as possible, the pure monotonic core of Prolog.

Apart from the exterior algebra part, there is little added value to using geometric algebra compared to other representations.

My guess is that most applications don't really need exterior algebra, or at least they would not benefit much from the nice unified representation it provides.
It seems like it's doing well because things are bad in silicon valley, not in spite of.
It sounds like there are a lot of desperate startups getting loans to 'simulate' growth by having negative profit margins (since they can't get real growth otherwise), then they use that fake growth to get investors' money which they use to service debt, then they keep raising money until they exit or IPO.
It doesn't seem sustainable. All these debts end up the hands of corporate shareholders. There's a point where companies and the public will stop buying useless startups (if that point hasn't already passed).
The linked article has a section addressing this. It says that in later periods some doctors recommended not bathing.

Two comments:

1. I don't see how this would ever fit on six slides. I mean, I see the slides but how useful/standalone are they, even if taken as basis for presentation of that paper?

2. The author conflates Prolog with SLD resolution. There are other resolution schemes in prolog systems. SLD might be the one defined for the iso-prolog standard but it's not the same. XSB and SWI support tabling and then use different schemes (SLG) and are still prolog. (Edit: see Triska's comment for more on this. It seems we posted within seconds of each other)
>0.2 sec gives the felling of instantaneous response

This is obviously false. Ideally test with an Arduino or other hard-realtime capable system, but assuming your computer doesn't have absolutely terrible latency you can still test with it. Disable your compositor if you're using one, and use a low latency terminal with uncapped framerate like xterm.

The popular method of running "sleep 0.1" alone is not actually a fair test, because a newline is printed immediately on running the command, so you might just be seeing the flicker and not the latency. A better method is comparing:

read -n1 -s -p "Press a key: " ; sleep 0.0; echo -n "0.0" ; sleep 2 ; echo ""
read -n1 -s -p "Press a key: " ; sleep 0.1; echo -n "0.1" ; sleep 2 ; echo ""

To me the difference is clearly visible.

If you want to have your eyes opened even more, you should also check out Kahneman's debate with Gerd Gigerenzer spanning decades of scientific work.

Gigerenzer challenged Kahneman on the grounds that he has a very specific definition of rationality, probability (single-case vs. relative frequency), etc. and that many of the biases he claimed to have found can be made to "disappear" once you apply a different concept of probability.

To give one example (I'm not 100% sure if I remember everything correctly): In one of Kahneman's studies, he asked participants questions such as "Is Detroit bigger than Anchorage?" and then asked them how sure they were of their answer (e.g. 70% sure). In this case, people would systematically overestimate how correct they were, and Kahneman concluded that there is an "overconfidence bias". Gigerenzer repeated the study, but instead of asking the participants for a confidence estimate at every question, he only asked them at the end how many of questions they got right overall - and in this case, people's estimate was actually very accurate.

> . The bit about "dummy 1-800 numbers" --- and someone could tell me that did really happen in a bunch of places --- rings false, because at the time, 800 numbers were perceived as risky, due to ANI

This was my thought as well. 800 numbers were very rarely seen in my experience. What was common though was line extenders of various forms, first via diverters but later via call forwarding. Install call forwarding on a businesses alarm line that never received incoming calls (perhaps without their knoweldge) and forward calls to a distant but still local BBS. Because of overlapping calling areas you could greatly extend the calling area of a BBS.

What the video didn't really go into is how these various components, -- warez origination/cracking/distribution, art, phone stunts (conference calls/diverters/long distance codes/etc. ), bbs operation, etc. formed a bit of an economy. Lots of people who could do something useful but wanted to get something in return, exchanging things of value that wouldn't have otherwise been created except to get access to other stuff...

> I got in trouble for phone bills like everyone else, but really, unless you were actually downloading warez, dialing into random BBS's across North America wasn't that expensive.

You could easily spend a lot more time connected to far away boards in chat than from downloading...
I don't know. First, there may be some separation achievable - but I'm just guessing. Second, if Kafka is your primary workload, you don't want it to misbehave in any case. But of course I get your point. I'm just saying I've seen people thinking about it that way in some Github Issues.
Ah. To summarise those some previous companies, Timbercorp and Great Southern pushed planting similar trees as a get rich quick thing and then went bust leaving useless trees and a lot of people with large losses. World Tree, featured in the Bloomberg article say they are different and do it better. I guess it's a tricky business to do well.
I feel the opposite about the tone. Sure, I have also heard that medieval people didn't bathe, and if I asked about it I would have repeated it as the best information I had. Not sure how that warrants being insulted by the author who is upset that not everyone else in the world is a medievalist like they are.

Let's say I have a river. I can only examine 1 drop under a microscope at a time. How do I find the cholera in the river? I take drops and look at them under the microscope. Over and over. I may not sample the whole river, but I can definitely build a representative sample. I can buy more microscopes and hire a bunch of microscopists and increase the sampling rate. Eventually, I'll figure out the amount of cholera per cubic liter, or accept that it's below the limit of detection. In this case, you're arguing that the bad thing is above the limit of detection, so I should be able to find some using random sampling.

The metadata I refer to could be all sorts of things. Fingerprints of key frames in the videos, patterns of IP addresses, cities where those streams are coming from, browser fingerprints, etc.

If the videos are drops of water, then you can imagine they start as rain. Every drop falls from the sky, somewhere in the river's basin. You can't possibly examine every drop before it gets to the ground. But you can sample them in the river.

In this case, I bet Google does, in fact, monitor the browser fingerprints of uploaders. Monitors all sorts of data around the upload event. Every single time. And does use all sorts of fancy algorithms to aid in assessment. And, and, they sample the river, with actual human microscopists/moderators, because they surely assume new patterns of plague are continuously evolving.
This makes me think of the lucidity I witnessed in the people I knew who later committed suicide.

In the hours, days, and sometimes weeks before suicide, their depression was gone, their insular thoughts vanish, and a deep peacefulness and a period of lucidity that exceeds any capability for such wisdom and thoughtfulness beforehand was visible.

I dislike having seen enough to spot this pattern.

I've never seen a UI animation that I liked, no matter how "quick" some designer thinks it is. Animations are just avoidable latency. But the nice thing about CSS animations is the "cascading" part. CSS is designed to be overridden, and my browser still fulfills its traditional role of "User Agent". Animations get disabled like every other annoyance. If CSS animations didn't exist then designers would probably find some more obnoxious way to implement them.

That is an absurd argument. The modern food chain is not carbon neutral [0].

If I start running to work, I have to consume more food. If I have a vegan diet I am eating the direct result of photosynthesis. That is, we could imagine the embodied carbon of my apple resulted directly from my previous exhalation of CO2. I do not dispute that some part of the 'life cycle of food' is a closed loop in this regard.

Yet I can't just 'eat an apple'. I also require someone to grow the apple (with fertilizer and its GHG emitting production chain), protect it (likely with pesticides), clean and package, transport, store and sell the apple. By the time I chew into the apple I have already contributed to the demand of GHG emitting processes.

So if you want to rigorously compare scooters with walking, running or riding a horse (all which affect quantity of food consumed), you need to take into account the carbon footprint of food. Just as when you look at GHG emissions of fuel, you don't just look at its combustion - you look at the supply chain.

If you only look at where carbon is added (e.g. fossil fuel combustion) or removed (e.g. carbon forest sinks) from the cycle, you miss out on learning about how individual actions or choices affect the rate at which addition or subtraction occurs.

Your examples are ALL survivor bias. Picking winners and losers in hindsight is trivial. Sure it's better to be one of the big survivors than the shovel seller, but it's better to sell shovels than to be the bankrupt losers of the industry - the companies absent from all your examples. Shovel sellers know it's a transient opportunity and need to act accordingly.
