So this is yet another anime / comics / gaming fan-site that's transformed into a hotbed of misogyny, fascism, and borderline terrorism advocacy?

The link between geek culture and the latter things is something I am still trying to wrap my head around. I don't get the connection at all. If you'd told me that anime fan-sites would become important recruitment grounds for terrorism ten years ago I would have laughed at you, yet here we are.

Can someone explain this?
Minecraft is just a game focused on user created content. The concept isn't new. It's not too far off of something like Mario Maker, Gary's mod, Second Life, or even excite bike.
From my consumer-grade computer repair experience, if the hard drive is dead, it was a Seagate. WD failures are few and far between.

That being said, I had a pair of 1 TB Seagates in RAID 1 that had over 7 years of runtime, which I retired for a capacity upgrade.

I am saying that any person who would use logic to analyze the proposed analogy and its consequences would see that it is absurd, independently from feelings and intuition. A normal reply to this would be a chain of arguments showing that in some case the analogy is giving a useful result.

Are you saying that logic is just "my reaction", and it is not any more valid than feelings?

Saving someone that is about to drown, if directly faced with the situation, is clearly a moral (and probably legal) duty.

But I world argue, that supporting a solution to actively prevent someone from putting themselves in a situation where they can drown, is not a duty.

I.e.: I have the duty to help my neighbor if I see that she fell off the stairs and needs medical attention. But I don't have the duty to go check on her door every hour to see if everything is fine.

"If you don't respect some one else's rights then there is no reason for them to respect yours."

Thats why a terrorist/psychotic killer/.. can get shot.

And it is not a myth, that there are daily people trying to shoot other people on this world. And some of them get stopped by a bullet.

The problem is, that usually both sides claim to only react, but that is a different story.

When there is someone mass killing "innocents" and the fastest way to stop it, is a bullet, then what would you propose instead?

I love my electric moped. Riding it around my European big-city, it just feels so comforting. Its so quiet, it doesn't scare ducks.

Scooters are taking over - Vienna is a green city that has had time to refine its transportation culture over a millenia. Parts of it were built for horses.

When I'm on my electric moped, I ride it like a horse. No need to over-do it and speed, or whatever, just pace along at a trot. There's a harmonic spot where the curves and corners of the city suddenly become super-fluid, and I even get all the green lights .. I'm pretty sure its because the physical geometry is designed for horses, and the electric moped drive train can approximate that.

Anyway, I can't wait until all the cars disappear. Europe is going to be even more beautiful.

"Monopolization Defined"

The antitrust laws prohibit conduct by a single firm that unreasonably restrains competition by creating or maintaining monopoly power. Most Section 2 claims involve the conduct of a firm with a leading market position, although Section 2 of the Sherman Act also bans attempts to monopolize and conspiracies to monopolize. As a first step, courts ask if the firm has "monopoly power" in any market. This requires in-depth study of the products sold by the leading firm, and any alternative products consumers may turn to if the firm attempted to raise prices. Then courts ask if that leading position was gained or maintained through improper conduct—that is, something other than merely having a better product, superior management or historic accident. Here courts evaluate the anticompetitive effects of the conduct and its procompetitive justifications.

"Market Power"

Courts do not require a literal monopoly before applying rules for single firm conduct; that term is used as shorthand for a firm with significant and durable market power — that is, the long term ability to raise price or exclude competitors. That is how that term is used here: a "monopolist" is a firm with significant and durable market power.

Thanks. I just found that macports has badblocks in the e2fsprogs package. I'm using it right now to scan a 3TB disk I had in a RAID6 array that has had 2 errors in the last 4 years. I'm currently using it as a cold standby, and this will give me more confidence in it!

EDIT: the RAID6 array is not on macOS, but Linux. I have a TB2 external enclosure that allows me to easily insert drives on my mac. Hopefully the macOS version is as good as the Linux version.
I find it highly amusing that Apple puts so much engineering into making their products light and thin and pretty, that people have to cover the products in rubber cases.

Unless you can build some sort of moral truth detector, "simply true or not true" is still a subjective proposition, because it's you believing that. So whatever you imagine the absolute truth to be is mostly irrelevant, in that you need to persuade other people with different viewpoints to behave the way you want. That leads you back pretty to utilitarian optimization problems.

I get that this doesn't have the thrilling clarity of some sort of moral fundamentalism. But that's my point. When two groups with different absolute moral beliefs conflict, our options are negotiation or murder. People like the El Paso killer clearly favor the latter. To me that's a sign that however much people hold absolute moral beliefs (and I hope it's relatively little), they should talk about it in utilitarian, relative terms.
The Peter Thiel Religion
I actually agree and have been saying this for years. Cars need to model as much as possible on the way humans drive. No one will expect an autonomous car to be able to do things that an alert and expert driver can achieve. The entire road system is built around the premise that it can be navigated using vision alone, with no a priori knowledge of its layout.

You can drop me onto a roadway undergoing construction with temporary lanes that are diverted to the left side of the road, all in a suburb of Boston, a city I’ve never been to, at night in a rain storm. You and I can safely drive in this condition if alert and focused, while relying only on vision.

My premise is that any system that requires anything else, e.g. map data, lane boundary data, lidar, is doomed to fail in these edge case scenarios.
There's already way more ideas than funds for television, in part because there's not really that many people that can reliably take an idea and turn it into good entertainment.

Great questions. And I also understand your skepticism. You're not the first and don't expect you to be the last :)

Trying to answer all your questions:

- Our models learnt website's components visually (e.g. what is a navbar, an input, a button, etc)

- The output is a .zip file with the .html files and directories for css, js and img

- All Vue components can be found in main.js inside the js directory

- Vue components are built when 'duplication' is recognized (e.g. a sequence of cards or several links for a navbar). Nothing fancy

- CSS is vanilla, trying to ditch as many inline style as possible (working on it as we speak :) )

- All SVGs are imported with the img element.

Let me know if you have more great questions.
This is a really interesting project, thanks for sharing. I think it's going to be difficult to get the model to the point where it generalizes well for lots of different designs, but that's no reason not to try. Really hard problems sometimes lead to really big wins.
I majored in English lit at university and one of my early requirements was a single author course. Having little general knowledge of famous authors, I chose the Toni Morrison class at random. I remember on the first day being surprised to find our that Toni Morrison was a woman and that her writing had such a strong focus on race and slavery. I was rather intimidated.

Turned out to be one of the best classes I had during those years. It was a very small group (I feel like only ten people or something) and there was a lot of really excellent discussion about the books. Jazz stood out to me as one of her best works, the focus shift in narrators throughout the novel was, I think, my first real exposure to the "unreliable narrator" concept and it made the story so powerful.

Critical Resources and the First 14 KB – A Review
Mostly because there is no Arab or Muslim empire left after Europeans killed off the Ottoman empire and it's easy to beat down tyrants with few allies. What's the reasons for these tyrants, dictators, and terrorists. Insecurity. What's the reason for insecurity? Lack of empire... so you always end up becoming someone's bitch... which leads to feelings of insecurity and inferiority.

The only way to deal with this is to become a vassal of an existing empire and good examples of this are Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, etc.

There's almost always a reason why the person who organised a meeting wants one, and I doubt you can use automation to solve whatever their problem is without understanding it first.

If anything, by automating the process of producing code you're going to leave front end developers with nothing but meetings because the rest of the job is going to become a matter of pushing an AI-powered button. They won't thank you for that.

They're echo-chambers of extreme beliefs and ideology with no influence from outside sources. Due to their ironic and sometimes inane nature, it seems like they've gotten extremely out of control and the results are what we're seeing today. 4chan 10 years ago was a pretty insane place, and personally seemed dangerously close to being what these sites have become.

Yes, but it would have a possibly annoying limitation of occlusion making the multi-touch fail at some positions. Fingers very close to the camera would appear huge and occlude everything else.
This is my favorite line of hers:

“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
More importantly, most drones cannot physically adjust the tilt of the rotor blades (which is called collective pitch control in helicopters). Helicopter autorotation requires rotors with a lot of angular momentum and usually an abrupt change in the collective pitch right before landing to turn that momentum into thrust and slow the helicopter down.

There are RC aircraft with collective pitch controls, like most RC helicopters and even some multirotors. These RC aircraft generally can autorotate, as well as do things that are probably not practical for full-scale aircraft to do, like fly upside down. :)

Theses prices are arbitrary. When I was able to get a credit card, the first thing I tried was to buy my username domain name, obviously, the .com was my priority. At the time it was 8k CAD, the .net was a bit better at 1.6k CAD.

Both were renewed at first but the second time .net didn't get renewed, unlike OP it didn't get into an auction (I don't think it was usual in 2011) and I just had to wait until the expiration delay was up and I got it.

Now the .com is worth 38 618,96$ CAD. There's no reason for an inflation that high for the past 8 years. No one needs that domain. I never received any request for mine. Except the fact that it contains "wild" inside, it's pretty much useless for much.

It's not at all related to any market, it's arbitrary.

Apple hasn’t wanted to compete with Google on business listings for their maps, so they integrated yelp instead. It’s terrible.

Here’s hoping that their push to bring maps data in house is followed by doing the same for this.
The next step is to allow voice/touch-driven repositioning of elements that the initial model didn't get right, e.g. telling it to "move Submit above Cancel" or just grabbing it and placing it there. That would clear most issues customers have and they could do that themselves, including changing styles/themes and seeing how it behaves right away.
I've noticed Google Maps tends to have more recent reviews as well compared to yelp and newer restaurant information is updated faster.
Most of the website was started with the model. However I was learning along the way, so most pages were fairly changed.

Regarding the time for the optimization of the output, we are estimating ~20/30 minutes per page. It could be very faraway from the reality or pretty close, not sure yet.
A handful of the quad controllers also support planes. I have multiple RC planes with that functionality - it adds a little complexity but not a ton.
The biggest thing I missed going from Ubuntu to Mac was the ability to take your current active window with you when you switched workspaces using only the keyboard. In Mac, you have to use a mouse.

Basically, some people who liked posting edgy stuff for lulz, some people had the root racist or misogynist views or gained them during impressionable years of their early lives due to that.

This was a small portion, but once you have that small portion the less crazy people leave the site or the crazier users get banned and start their own site, as is what happened from 4chan -> 8chan.

It's been pushed into progressively smaller niches that have accelerated their views into more and more insane stuff. Ridiculous conspiracies like QAnon are still something readily being discussed on 8chan. I'm ashamed to admit but I'd actually hit 8chan up for that edgy ridiculous humor when awful shit happened sometimes, but it's clearer than ever that a significant chunk of the community now actually believes it, a feeling I never quite got from 4chan and I suspect it's the nature of being pushed into a smaller niche. A tiny echo chamber of crazy views quickly propagates more crazy views.
