So I want to do this and understand the motor/power train part well. I am more curious about the stuff around it, such as the gages on the dashboard. I have speedometer and tachometer on my dashboard. Do these get replaced? My speedometer has a small LCD that show fuel economy, distance to empty, tire pressure etc. So the question is how to you fit your new power method into what is a unique system design for your gas powered car?
There is a ridiculous amount of free parking in Manhattan (and most of NYC) if you've got the time to look for it. It's a little obscene, because the city is leaving a massive amount of money on the table to appease its driving population.
This has nothing to do with hacking, so none of that applies. You're conflating attacking someone else's computer or network.

You don't need safe harbor because analyzing your own property is not a crime. Neither is telling people what you found. Also, please stop using the term responsible disclosure!

MLM software security vulnerabilities to consider and its solutions
The article does say the percentage of people accepting full time offers from Facebook has dropped from 85% to 35-55%. I imagine its far worse for Palantir. Sure, they can always get more applicants from somewhere, but in all likelihood they definitely do feel the effects.
Unfortunately environmental protection laws are relatively weak in this country. Fortunately shareholder protection laws are relatively strong. So the attorney general, like a good lawyer, goes for the cause of action that will give him a high chance of success.
Better way: Have the federal government bare the cost of certification and human testing. Extend this to other products too like wireless devices in electronics to be consistent. Instead of outsourcing to external labs or running own experiments that cost tremendous amount of money, the common trial-and-error type drugs (i.e. not a wildly advanced/theoretical treatment, those can be done the old fashioned way) testing should be fully State funded. This makes it easy for generics/functionally similar drugs to enter the market. New pharma startups would only have to bare R and D manpower and material costs (which according to YC at least, is plunging), the most expensive human testing is fully done by third-party i.e. government. It democratises drug development. There is a serious problem with the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry on the supply side. Shortage of drugs, difficulty of building and approving new hospitals, shortage of residencies and medical school intake restrictions. These all can be dealt with in one sweep if the FDA changes its regulatory process and restructures the healthcare industry. Almost every bio grad I know is going into software and CS. We have people who have spent years studying life sciences only to give up all their knowledge and choosing to do web dev/data science because they see no future in their own industry. It's basically med school (or worse, nursing), pharmaceutical or academia. All with tremendous amount of regulatory capture or extreme shortages. A proteomics PhD's highest calling shouldn't be too fiddle with Webpack configs so that React can interop with Vue. Just as the Soviet apparatchiks are responsible for mass famine due to incompetent central economic planning among other things(despite their economists inventing Linear Programming), modern policy makers need answer as to why a premed student would choose to work in DevOps instead of a wet lab. People complain about cancer drugs not hitting the market or breakthrough research that never seem to be commercialised. It's not the poorly paid scientists you ought to hold responsible, it's the people who set the rules in the first place. Sure YC just released a post on how Biotech investment is going to magically be the next software industry. But biotech has been hyped for years and there has been no real progress on the regulatory side. Only under the current US Presidential administration did the Right to Try become legalised. Unlike aerospace(a similarly bureaucratic domain) where the worst outcome of a long time to market for a plane is a less comfortable/fuel efficient plane, the opportunity cost in medicine and pharmacy is paid in human lives.
CA does very poorly by that measure. Both of these states have large rural populations (which bring down the median income), as well as large urban centers (which bring up the cost of living).

> So back in 1997, the technology was actually transformational at that time

I was there. No it wasn't.

E.g., here's a slashdot article from 1999 with a bunch of comments complaining about it: https://slashdot.org/story/99/10/12/1826242/amazoncom-receiv.... And Japan rejected the patent as obvious in 2001.

US Software patents are pathological because the only novel part of most interesting software is the mathematics. So the only things that are patentable are dumb and obvious systems built on top of the actual contribution. Crypto is the epitome of this pattern because all of the Turing-award-level mathematics was not patentable but "that meth but with blockchain" or "that math but with more bytes" is patentable. It's dumb and the opposite of innovation.

Dijkstra's algorithm is another good example of the main innovation never being patented but a bunch of obvious stuff built on top of it receiving patent protection.
Welp, this is going to get right the fuck challenged.

And my guess is that the people who challenge it are going to make sure it ends up in Judge Alsup’s court, if possible.
Honestly, my biggest surprise is that histological sample preparation has not been completely automated. That is, making slides of biological tissue for further analysis. It's an incredibly repetitive job that could benefit from the precision of a well-tuned machine. Whoever seriously tackles and solves this problem would capture a very thankful and eager market.
I disagree. In my experience (graduated from Stanford in 2015) at least as many people, probably more, are put off by "woke" culture and corporate activism. Opinions that are commonly voiced are not necessarily widely held because people with strong opinions tend to speak a disproportionately large amount.
I think that's a fair point; fwiw I was just trying to clarify the article.
In an opinion by Judge Ikuta, the court “concludes that the development of a face template using facial-recognition technology without consent (as alleged here) invades an individual’s private affairs and concrete interests.” As the court explained, “the facial-recognition technology at issue here can obtain information that is ‘detailed, encyclopedic, and effortlessly compiled,’ which would be almost impossible without such technology.”

Possessing a picture of someone's face is OK, but creating a model that represents that face is not OK if that model can be compared to another picture to categorize it.

Possessing a picture of someones face is OK, and having a human create a mental model that represents that face is OK as well even if that can be compared to another picture to categorize it.

The argument seems to center around how easy/hard or expensive/cheap the process is.
"You may well ask: 'Why direct action? Why sit ins, marches and so forth? Isn't negotiation a better path?' You are quite right in calling for negotiation. Indeed, this is the very purpose of direct action. Nonviolent direct action seeks to create such a crisis and foster such a tension that a community which has constantly refused to negotiate is forced to confront the issue. It seeks so to dramatize the issue that it can no longer be ignored."

Yes. During the Bush administration, for example, it was the NY attorney general Spitzer that held financial institutions accountable for their crimes as the president was determined to let them get away with everything.
I think that’s the power of react native, it’s in a framework you already sort of know because everything is web, and it’s good enough for teams that can’t dedicate enough resources for native apps.

I work in a Danish municipality. Being a non tech-sector we’re 10 technicians to 5000-7000 employees. Being a C# we looked into Xamarin, Flutter and a few of those things that bundles/parse things, but they’re just really too complicated for the amount of time we can allow ourselves to throw at them. They are also impossible to hire for. We mainly build web-applications though, and while those aren’t always build with JavaScript frameworks (mostly they are just MVC with an Ajax library, which like Uni likely will took years to master). We do make use of modern js frameworks though, and increasingly so. We started out with AngularJS, and got burned hard when it moved to angular 2.0, so we actually ignored them for a while after that. Anyway when we came back and looked at angular/Vue/react it was obvious what benefits we would get from react and react native, and now we’re rather productive with it.
I don't see anything but your name and three external links. Your 404 page shows your e-mail as base64, but it's cut off half the way (or rather bugged out) because of the CSS. From the JS my first guess would be some relation to LGBT. All put into 328 kilobytes. The cert is from Symantec ... and soon to be distrusted by all major browsers. It uses Google Analytics (yuck). Mixed script tags in body and head. No CSP present whatsoever. Same for HSTS. And more things. At least the TLS related problems I would get sorted out first before going online, even for a work in progress.
If I could have one thing in Brave, aside from bug fixes, it’s this: rather than give me popup ads on my desktop, replace some of the static ads it blocks with Brave ones. They’re way less intrusive.
> To be apolitical is to make the tacit political statement, "Things are okay enough for me to not care."

But the point is, they don't care. Which makes this position apolitical, an absence of political opinion. The fact that they aren't spurred into political actions due to personal suffering does not mean that there's no such thing as being apolitical.

> did calculus really make you a better software engineer?

I am no math whiz but I would say yes. Having the basics down at least at one point in you life is pretty helpful.

I am not the type to develop new lock-in functions for encryption and I do not use LaPlace tables to create models of control loops to configure pid controllers. But the understanding helps me to know about important stuff I have to look out for.

That said, you can still design amazing software without that knowledge, but the foundation certainly helps. Even if this knowledge might not be directly applicable to your day-to-day job.
How would that help here? These are generic, so there is no monopoly beyond the Hatch-Waxman Amendments, which is only 180 days.

Now, if we got rid of trademarks, which gives a company the monopoly on the trade name, then it would of course be much easier for generics to start selling EpiPen-labeled injectors.

I do ocean beach (richmond) to fidi (~7 miles) and vice-versa at rush hours and it's usually around $7-10. Up from $5-8 a few months ago.

Getting out of fidi at 5pm can sometimes be slow w/ pool (20+ min wait), especially if the driver gets stuck in traffic e.g. on bush leading to market because of some rando accident on 101. Taking an uber at any other time or location has mostly been fine for me (5 min wait times tops), and it's not that uncommon to have 5 min wait times even out of fidi at 5pm.
I frequently recommend Brave to non-technical people who would have problems installing browser extensions. Everything works out of the box without configuration.
For those in the US, it might be 1-2 affordable flights and in the same timezone? Someone elsewhere in these comments suggested Svalbard would be 40 hours and $1200+.

At a minimum drivers need to be tracked in real time from the point they respond to the point passengers are picked up, and preferably tracked throughout trips due to various concerns, so it definitely can’t be Craigslist level of simplicity.

Walls in the hallway and storage rooms are left exposed as well as one wall in the kids rooms.

The living and sleeping rooms are covered by clayslabs and in-between the electrical cables are placed. Everything is plastered then with clay“stuff“.

We hope that clay will help to control the climate.

The cables are put through the walls to install switches in the hallways.
Gesture Navigation: A Backstory
How do you know the city is leaving money on the table? Increased economic activity due to people looking for free parking may well surpass losses from parking fees. If the possibility of free parking exists, people well may come out more, or spend more when they are out, and via taxes the city will certainly be earning something.

It's probably impossible to measure exactly, but I think it's far from a given that NYC is losing money by providing some free parking.
I was directed to a pair of ponderosa pine trees. Yum!
1. I'm not sure why you think this is inconsistent with what I said.

2. I'm not sure what census blocks you are including in your definition?

For a very long time, LA was also very famously anti-pedestrian, both in laws and enforcement. It's trying to change for sure, but I would not say it's there yet.
Berlin's public transport is notoriously bad (imho), a lot of it is owed to being divided for decades and the rest is just Berlin not taking care of it. Personal transportation is a much better alternative for many routes time wise, and hard to ever beat comfort wise.

There's a lot of commercial parking available, and it's not that expensive either.
While activities like this may result in the author being less visible to a particular algorithm, I imagine that the instant dropoff from most networks and instant arrival in new networks would be a very strong signal of who they are.

The more bizarre tricks you try to stay hidden, the more identifiable you (probably) are.
Every day, I ride the NYC subway over the Williamsburg bridge. I can look out at the traffic a few feet away and see hundreds of gridlocked cars with no passengers (other than a driver).

I think it's coming from both sides -- there's an entire industry that sells car ownership as a lifestyle, and on the other end people think driving is a constitutionally protected right. If you think people are using logic, I encourage you to sit in on a bike lane proposal meeting.
In my experience, the people who insist that there is no such thing as being apolitical are the ones most averse to political views different from their own. More often than not, people who insist that coworkers should bring politics into the office neglect to consider that many of their coworkers probably hold views they consider morally wrong or harmful. For instance, several co-workers who made such statements had also called all Trump supporters white supremacists (attributing the label to all supporters was explicit) and that apprehending any illegal migrants at the border is inherently racist. Something tell me these people have a pretty specific image in mind when they're encouraging their co-workers not to be apolitical in the workplace.
Not many people were using cabs for regular travel before Uber and Lyft though.
That's a great example for lack of understanding of the sex app between great UX to the risks the user face when all those features are in the app
After a brief skim of that README, I'm not 100% certain how Pi-hole works. Basically, it is a DNS server whose job is to lose requests to trackers, sort of like modifying the hosts file to fail to connect to facebook owned domains? And you use it by telling your router to use it as its DNS server, controlling it via a webpage it hosts on your private network?
Well, at least they smell edible.
What makes a phone call over a wireless carrier worthy of more protection that a private text chat between two people?

I don't like forced moralization as much as the next one but I think this is a bad development. Before computer science becoming something you could study, it was mostly bundled with philosophy in my country.

That isn't just about chugging two beers and talking about the state of the world. Arguments are carefully crafted and (logical) consistency is valued that could for one help you with in your field and additionally allows you to look beyond the horizon on a lot of issues.

Stanford's admission rate has been dropping over the last decade, so I highly doubt newer students are any less qualified or capable.

In fact, I'd argue the opposite: The median student slated to graduate in 2023 is likely smarter and harder-working than median student who graduated in 2003.
Honestly, I didn't even realise those were links at first!
It is income. Someone gave you money. Otherwise, why wouldn’t a company “loan” you a higher salary and then just “forgive” the debt? Or, you could set up a company to loan yourself money — the company deducts the “loss” and you don’t pay taxes on the gain.
I was using disaster recovery as an example. The method is still applicable.
"These all can be dealt with in one sweep if FDA changes its regulatory process."

That is not true. For one, the FDA has little influence on the degree of difficulty in building and approving new hospitals. You'll note too that one of the problems is that existing medical facilities are disappearing from poorer and rural areas.

For another, the "shortage of residencies and medical school intake restrictions" is due to the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, which "capped the number of residency slots the federal government would fund ... The shortfall-what is not covered by the Federal government-is paid for by the hospitals where residents train. While it is possible to increase the number of residents they train, to do so, hospitals must fund the entire cost of those training positions." - https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/healthcare/266610-sh... . The FDA has nothing to do with that.

Fermi Paradox Theory: life in the universe is either rare(outside of the tardigrades flying around) or intelligent life is too short lived to have any overlap. If we’ve only had the technology to identify life elsewhere for a few hundred years against the last 14 billion years, what are the odds another civilization exists at the exact same time in a place we could find them? Even if humans exist for 100k years that’s still such a tiny sliver of time in the cosmos. It’s no wonder we’re not finding anyone. It’s either that or the Dark Forest doing its thing.

> I thought about your comment re: video and I did some more poking around online since I was hoping to avoid having to do a fresh install. I tried updating my video codecs and now Netflix/Hulu works! Hooray!

Yeah, it's important to pull updates regularly :) In general many of the bugs you'll come across will end up being fixed sooner or later, so it's worth checking regularly.

> Whoa, is that the reason why some websites are eating a ton of memory?? Is this common?

That and just the poor use of JS. Most websites really don't need JS. I use mbasic.facebook.com instead of facebook.com as it'll run without JS, plus you have to manually refresh to get any kind of notification.

You mean like in the HN footer?
Depends what you mean. At the least, you can easily use statistics to talk about how well an rnn works. It may be that we can reduce an rnn to a distribution, someday.

It does seem true that statistics are more suited to describe analytical models. But, that seems as much a quirk of history than a foregone conclusion.

As an easy example, I can give you the statistics of my bike ride. Such that you can get a pretty solid understanding of what my next week's worth of rides will be like, per the parameters used in the description. This does basically nothing to help you build a bike. Or make the ride yourself. So too, would a statistical model of an rnn be.

And indeed, this is no different than a statistical model for how often humans will make mistakes see any process. Or a model for how many students will successfully learn a topic.

Seems logical to me: the bank essentially gave you a loan and then said, well you don’t need to pay us back. So they really gave you a certain amount of money. Isn’t that what they call income?
For public transportation I don’t love surge pricing. It’s such a great resource for the poor and taking that away because it’s St Patty’s day doesn’t sit well with me
Depends on the position. If a web dev is running standard out of the box WordPress Blog that should be some sort of a flag.
There ought to be a fine of 1/10 of 1% of annual profit for seeking and granting a patent later deemed obvious.

The money from said fine ought to be granted to the party that brings evidence to court that the patent has been granted in error.

Further the examiner who approved it ought to be terminated. Ample reason for both parties to do a better job.

I hereby suggest that we petition the government to fire the individual who granted this. Is the most appropriate venue for this farcical quest change.org?

Alternatively we can just admit that the entire patent system is better off scrapped.
> Protest doesn’t work unless it it causes extreme inconvenience. You’re telling the protestors not to protest.

No. This is the kind of misguided logic that protesters use to do things like block freeways, stand on caltrain tracks, and trespass on private property.

When protest causes extreme inconvenience, more often than not it inspires ire for the protesters. None of my friends that were stuck in traffic when BLM protesters blocked highways in Oakland came away from that experience with an improved opinion of BLM.
