On another note, why is there always a push to "humanise" the system with some bullshit robot? It's completely unnecessary. What it boils down to is some weighted matrices doing mathematical work. I would argue that if it was used by a human judge to aid their judgement, mixed in with their prior experience. I would argue that in a lot of cases it is going to make them question their own biases if the system is designed to be race blind and only using the salient facts.
I've heard this mentioned a few years ago in a TV report on dogs used in labs that test evidence for criminal trials. Their procedure was to let the dog alone into a special scent-free room that contained the sample being tested, plus a few control ones. The samples were placed into containers that only let the smell out (no visual cues, even though the samples were identical-looking cotton swabs).

Also, I vaguely remember a high-profile case where the evidence was dismissed precisely because the procedures for gathering and testing the samples were not followed.

We have built large parks/playgrounds for kids here in Eastern Europe, and we have upgraded most of our playgrounds. There are many of them. Kids can freely be kids here still. :)

What is happening in the US is quite depressing to me. Your kid can be shot for having a toy that the cop perceives to be a gun. It is crazy! Things like that never happen here, even if that toy is a toy gun.

You can at least trace the money back to a mixer. Large amounts of money being sent to a terrorist organisation. The money is being mixed by a mixer. Easy to shut down the mixer. If mixers are being used and they aren't being shut down it's because it is easy to trace the money through the mixer (or, perhaps the government doesn't care, but that seems unlikely).

The funny thing is that if the mixer is hard monitor because it is going through fiat currency, then you never needed BTC in the first place -- you just launder money through it.

I frequently say this: if you think a news story seems strange, look at what the reporter has written previously. Newspapers are making it easy these days, which is awesome.

No, that's generally incorrect. If your property is surrounded by others' private property in the US, an "easement by necessity" will generally be automatically granted which allows you access to your property through the surrounding private property.

Could you give me an example of this? My impression as a user is that it's not changed very much at all for years. This is the web UI by the way. Both on Amazon.com and AWS.

If I'm wrong, fair enough. Need to change my model!

> don’t confuse useable UI with beautiful UI.

Perhaps I didn't get this across clearly enough, but I definitely don't. It's actually the main point I'm trying to make. Beautiful UI serves a certain type of UX which most products don't need. What most products need is boring, functional, useable design that just works, Amazon being a good example of this.
It's been said that "the only intuitive user interface ever created was the nipple", but even then it can take hours or days for an infant to figure out how to use a nipple.

I don't believe there is any such thing as intuitive interfaces, only familiar interfaces. So learn what your users are familiar with, and build around that.

Yes but video ads are annoying no matter how you do them. It's because they get in your face and you have to wait for them, unlike picture ads. Nobody likes video ads, since the beginning of internet ads. They should just go the way of the popup-window.

I like the 6800. Two accumulators and a 16 bit index register is a good alternative. Totally understand your preference. The 6805 seems too cut down.

I have not written much 6800 code, but have read a fair bit. Had it been more available to me, I would definitely enjoyed it

The 6809 is the Cadillac of 8 bitters. That is what makes it fun. One can pack a ton of features into small spaces and doing reentrant, relocatable code is very well supported.

Android gives customers hardware choices

You dilute your argument by mentioning this point.

Google does give better hardware choices. I am using a $150 android-one phone (Xiaomi A3) which has a high end comparable back and front camera. And comes with 2 years guaranteed OS updates.

Compare with the cheapest latest iPhone (iPhone XR) which is 5 times more expensive at $750.

The observation seems logical, but I wonder what is actually the relevance of the study in practice.

I mean, there are three common situations where these dogs are used:

1) airports, stations, traffic stops etc. where the influence of the trainer might be relevant (i.e. the trainer, even if involuntarily, may influence the dog if the person that is sniffed - or their belongings/looks/behaviours/etc. - look suspicuous to the trainer)

2) search in buildings for drugs or explosives

3) screening of mail, packages, containers, etc.

I believe that among these only in activity #1 the trainer might have some pre-constituted suspect that would "trigger" the influence on the dog.

But in any case the dogs are only used as a means of "triage" of sorts, so at the most this influence leading to false positives will cause some time wasted.

Still in case #1 (and possibly in case #3) the issue might be that if there are too many of these false positives, while the attention of the trainers/policemen is drawn to the "false target" some other one (actually carrying drugs or explosives) will "go through".
Softbank deals are hardly what I would call VC-style -- certainly not "early" or even "mid stage" venture. Their very size tends to require much later-stage deals to absorb the large check sizes. This is growth or borderline "mezz" or "PE" frankly.

In contrast, Microsoft Ventures / M12 will do proper early-stage venture, doing a check of $2 M or $5 M or $10 M into a growing but still uncertain company.

Source: I have done single-digit $M deals with M12 and am a VC.
"2. Seek out problems and iterate;"

This is bad advice. It's like saying "go into a bar and start picking up fights".

If some part of the software has problems, runs slow or has bugs but nobody is complaining, then there's no problem. Why waste time improving it?

Almost 100% of the time when you solve a problem you just create new problems of different kind in turn.

Be lazy. The less code you write the better off you are.

can't as in "that asset class does not meet the risk and liquidity requirements for cash management in general"

not can't as in "de-facto illegal."

dereliction of fiduciary duty is illegal, of course the circumstances matter.

I think you are conflating capex + investments with overall cash management.

They already invest a lot in the vision fund. This is a way for them to route more money into the vision fund on top of what they already invest, by tapping into an additional asset class within their portfolio allocation.

If a company's portfolio is a high percentage of cash management products, that's a bad sign of low innovation. If the portfolio is too low a percentage, that's a bad sign also because they would be unable to access liquidity to cover operations given a downturn or sudden need for capex etc... Different companies have different allocations but healthy companies (including google) have allocations into a diverse bucket of asset classes...

> consider this concrete counterexample to your claim

The fact that Google also has a VC arm is not a counter argument. Google allocates some amount of its cash into cash management products as well.

> SoftBank's investors don't need SoftBank to hold cash, treasuries or corporate paper on their behalf

Their customers do. They're still a major telecom company in Japan -- they certainly have operations they need to protect.
It would also cover the Scandinavian languages. I'd like it to include English as well, but not use any of the English-only Romance vocabulary; but there's a large chance that that would not result in anything that's useful for interacting with English-speakers. The grammar would be almost entirely based on German and Dutch with maybe one or two Scandinavianisms thrown in to make them feel a bit more at home, but for word choice all languages would take part. Non-Germanic words used in most of those modern languages would be included (like restaurant or station).

About mutual intelligibility with Scandinavian: quite a few basic words are identical in pronunciation between e.g. Swedish and Dutch, and many are similar enough that when speaking slowly you can get reasonably far, I would think, although I haven't tried that much since in practice you fall back on English all the time. When you look into the dialects there's even more you can find that's very similar.
I hope we'll one day see proper support for mdns in Android. Devs shouldn't have to go out of their way to use the special NSD API to provide mdns functionally in their apps. It should just work at the system level, which to be clear, it does not. It's been years and years in this state, so I can't be as positive.
I believe it stems from an early idea that not specifying it might allow for the compiler to do some optimisations (same reason it is not specified in C). I think it also allows for some freedom in the internal representation for continuation rewriting, and that it now would mean some problems for implementations if a certain way was specified. (Please correct me if I'm wrong about that).

It only really matters if you are passing arguments to a function that both read and mutate the same variable. In idiomatic scheme that really only happens with IO or something like srfi-121 styled generators.

I wonder if it's different if you have it set to "Contacts only". It may need to connect to iCloud.
It probably starts with an existing YAML config file that you only need to pass one or two variables to. Then things get out of hand.

Being in the market for such a car I realized that a Mercedes E-class or Skoda Superb (the combi/estate versions) have only slightly less cargo space than an Audi Q7 when the seats are up, and just about as much space with the seats folded.

From what I can tell most people who go for the SUV for practical reasons do it for the safety or the assumption that a bulkier car will have more room. A factor rarely considered is that big wheels and bulkier axles will eat some of the interior space. This being said most of the people I know (or know of) more or less drive those SUVs alone every day. I guess they get 2 birds with one stone: practical car that's also a status symbol, with the popular interpretation that bigger is better.
The issue with this is that one would end up with a page of stuff related to the keyword as opposed to the desirable way of ending up with an actual product page itself.

The "but" negates any disapproving effect it may have had, because structurally the latter part acts as a justification for tolerance.

"The tool is squeaky but it gets the job done" - you wouldn't expect the speaker to do anything about the squeaks. Squeaking is tolerable.

"The tool does the job but it's squeaky" - you would expect the speaker to do something about the squeaks. Doing the job isn't good enough.

Your comment is most easily read as not disapproving of authoritarian government when it is effective.
What the heck? Madness. When I was a kid (not too long ago), we used to throw rocks at other people's windows. Cops has been called out.

You are right, unfortunately in the current case, their algorithms have determined many developer's careers and will continue to do so.

How Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) Can Utilize DLT to Disrupt the Internet
My (also non-data backed) guess would be it's a generational thing.

When I was a kid in the early 2000's, most web addresses were "www.domain.com", that's what you'd see on written material like advertising or articles. These days if an ad has a web address it usually doesn't include the `www.` subdomain.
?? Facial recognition is very good already; how would we define a 100x improvement? A 100x reduction in error rate? NIST benchmarked current implementations at a 0.2% error rate with massive databases--1 in 500-- you're saying that you're really confident we'll reach a 1 in 50,000 error rate?

More generally: nothing is inevitable, especially when we're talking about orders of magnitude. Maybe it happens as quickly as we'd hope, maybe it doesn't. Maybe it doesn't even happen in the near to intermediate future at all. That goes for self-driving cars, quantum computers, general artificial intelligence, or whatever.

Moore's law was inevitable, until it wasn't.

> Additionally, 24.71% of these redirections contains [...] HTTP intermediate URLs.

One problem I've found is that if you have a redirect from HTTP to HTTPS, then you don't notice an extra redirect from HTTPS to HTTP (e.g. redirect from HTTPS plain domain to HTTP www, which then in the next request get upgraded from HTTP www to HTTPS www).

Combine that with the fact that it is surprisingly difficult to prevent the AWS load balancer from redirecting from HTTPS to HTTP. Literally Apache, Nginx, Tomcat, Jetty all get it wrong out of the box. I had to write this blog post to prevent myself from getting it wrong in the future: https://www.databasesandlife.com/jetty-redirect-keep-https/

The particular application I discovered that on did not accept HTTP traffic, so I discovered the extra redirect. Most people don't.
I'm working on a social drawing game called ScribbleX (https://www.scribblex.com). It's available for free on iOS and Android.

The concept is pretty simple:
Take a piece of paper and divide it into three parts. Now, Player 1 draws a face on the first part of the paper, folds it over and passes it to Player 2. Player 2 then draws the body, folds it again and passes it to Player 3. Player 3 draws the legs or feet on the third part of the paper.

In the end, you unfold the paper and a funny creature reveals itself! Now imagine this, just on your smartphone – the possibilities are endless ;)
I'll also point out that defending against buffer overflows which are considered vulnerabilities is a far saner boundary than a blacklist of files which grows infinitely.

Not yet. The Porsche Taycan is launching with 250 kw charging (with 350 kw charging to come in future) but I haven't seen any information on its charge curve. The Tesla Model 3 can charge at 250kw to about 20% state of charge and then it progressively drops off.
This is certainly NOT a waste management issue. As i travelled the world, i noticed one thing. I could always see certain product waste in the same poor regions the world over. Selling plastic to the poor is BIG enterprise.

We are talking about countries with no waste management systems because everything they have relied on thus far, as been entirely biogradable. "Trash bin" is not even in their vocabulary. Thats the floor!

Plastic is a problem because we have capitalistic enterprises entering new markets, and dumping their plastic, overprocessed foods; on poor unsuspecting populations. These supermarkets outcompete hand-to-plate operations in very little time. These enterprises usually follow resource extraction companies. "Give them money, take their resources", and any money they earn, gets funneled back to a mate, in the form of long life overprocessed goods (palm oil, preservatives banned in developed countries, sugar etc)

https://youtu.be/YINCk0zPkWE?t=984 (best video i can find at the moment)

ie. when a new mine is built, a pipeline is created to extract and export those resources. To fatten up the profit, ships that take minerals away, arrive with overprocessed supermarket goods. The mine employ's local workers who used to live a substance life-style, hand-to-mouth. Now the mine destroys the hand-to-mouth foodchain, and replaces it with a more profitable one.

The supeprmarket goods themselves then create health problems. And soon enough, the cycle has been kick started; there is no other way to live - but to depend on the supermarkets, depend on mecidine, which both require money. Need some money for medicine? There is a logger who will help out with that! Good for business, bad for humanity.

The relationship between plastic, exploitation and profit is intrinsically linked. Even at the 1st world scale, Coca-Cola products are 1/3 of all plastic waste in the ocean. They do it because its the cheapest way to preseve and export their sugar laced goods. Exploitation is the basis of the business model. Exploit human desires (we are programmed to seek sugar), exploit weak institutions, exploit weak governance, exploit weak enforcement. Hustle the supply chain so only your products are available. Its the only way to maintain a 10% profit increase each year, once u have hyper-optimised every other facet of the production process.

Putting a state of the art plastic recycling plant next door to OK Tedi is not going to help. It will just be another parasitic Capitalistic enterprise seeking to exploit, dump and export.
