If I were trying to solve this problem, I would Fourier transform and look to see at what spatial frequency the signal stops being larger than photon shot noise. Seems like the obvious first attempt at an approach.

But that's not what they're doing - they're doing something about "image partial phase autocorrelation", which are all words I know but not together. I wonder why the naive method isn't adequate.

That product in fact does NOT say that it is FDA approved, nor does it say that any of its ingredients are FDA approved. So it is not an example of "stamp the FDA approval on themselves".

> It is a loophole in that they can list "FDA something"

They are making a statement of 100% fact. Their facility was inspected by the FDA. Outlawing saying so would violate the constitution. Notably they are not saying that the product is approved by the FDA.

I would argue turning off traction control feels safer up until the moment it doesn't and then it causes a crash. Traction control is really impressive tech even on older cars and I wouldn't want to turn it off. By "fly-by-wire" do you mean power steering? Driving without that just sucks. I like low-tech interiors but I don't mind newer tech on cars like blind spot detectors and auto-dip headlights. If only you could pick and choose.

I don't think this will ever reach parity with desktop operating systems, because they don't want us using desktop operating systems at all. I would not be at all surprised if the only code that has access to this is signed by Google and maybe hosted on their servers.
Thank you for sharing this. This is one of the types of issues that I’m afraid of: the insulation Google has from its users. I don’t believe I could simply call a legal representative or get in touch with the staff of an elected official to resolve such a matter.

If you are under constant attack from well funded enemies who want to destroy you, attacking iOS with well focused exploits is a good way of getting intelligence. The enemy may be lulled into a false sense of security on iOS and if the exploit goes undiscovered for a long time, a lot of intelligence can be obtained.

Every lambda calculus, including yours, corresponds to a Cartesian closed category. Your system is not at all as new as you think; what you are actually inventing are new ways to write down parsers, akin to the many other ways that folks are trying to write down programs in JSON or XML or YAML.

It's Prolog, so there is probably already more. I just found a bachelor thesis from 2011 "Implementation of a Proof Assistant in Prolog" https://www2.imm.dtu.dk/pubdb/views/edoc_download.php/6043/p... I haven't read it yet.

There's also PRESS, which seems relevant, "Solving symbolic equations with PRESS"

> We describe a program, PRESS, (PRolog Equation Solving System) for solving symbolic, transcendental, non-differential equations in one or more variables. PRESS solves autonomously, i.e. without guidance from the user. The methods used for solving equations are described, together with the service facilities. The principal technique, meta-level inference, appears to be relevant to the broader field of symbolic and algebraic manipulation.

It depends on how free college is implemented. If it’s a voucher system, where students get a certain amount to spend, the ISA night go away if the voucher covers the full cost of education. Otherwise, an ISA could still be used to cover the excess funds.

If the money goes directly to the institution, and the price exposed to students is always $0, the ISA goes away completely.

Regardless of how we implement free college, there will most likely not be a restriction on the existence of programs that are not free. These programs may have a drastically smaller market, but a market of some sort may still exist. This is primarily due to [my guesstimation] that we simply don’t have enough seats and beds to cover every high school student going to college.
Some of the "subsidies" are inherent in the services themselves though. At the top of this thread was a quote about the dollar value of time saved on a commute. What's the dollar value of the 100k people taking the Caltrain from SJ to SF to the people driving on the 101?

The people who have to commute by car are greatly benefit by every incremental person who takes transit and to some extent vice versa since trains are less crowded, etc. Eliminating subsidies (whatever that means) seems every bit as centrally planned and subject to great economic inefficiency as the decisions to fund transit.

Many places in Manhattan don’t have a grocery store 5-7 minutes walk away (though most will have one within 15).

The issue of having to trust the server also applies in a lot of non-browser cases. For example, I have to trust the 1Password update server, or forego 1Password updates.

These are not quite the same kinds of trust - nearly every request to a compromised web app server is an opportunity to inject malicious code and malicious UI and compromise the clientside part of the app.

Compromising a software update server doesn't necessarily get you any of that - for instance, your 1Password client will presumably verify the authenticity of the update before it applies it.
This is like saying Brooklyn is not New York City. This is silly shit.
I'm not 100% sure I understand your comment, but I don't think it's dishonest to frame drug use as a crutch.

One of the odd things about drugs is that if you do use them as a crutch (and I certainly do), then you are forfeiting recreational value.

I smoke to feel "normal" and to avoid nightmares (it turns off dreaming, which is quite useful). That means I can't get "high" like non-potheads can. When I haven't smoked in a while, I get giggly and have the munchies and every idea is mindblowing, and that's truthfully quite a lot of fun and is the reason most people start smoking weed.

Unfortunately, if I don't smoke after work, I can't really feel like my work day is over, and I'll keep thinking about work until I exhaust myself. If I don't smoke before bed, there's a good chance I'll have horrible nightmares and wake up in a cold sweat. These aren't symptoms of withdrawal that go away in time, that's just how I lived my life before discovering weed, and that's how I feel daily even if I take a months-long break from smoking.

I would love to not need weed as a crutch, both to be healthier and so I can occasionally get a giggly-munchies-omg-this-music-sounds-amazing type of high.

The problem is, if I quit smoking, I feel less mentally healthy, and all of the psychiatric drugs that could possibly help are worse in health and effect than weed.
Cannabis addiction, if that even exists, isn’t a bitch at all. Nicotine addiction is kind of a bitch. Opiate addiction is a bitch.
I think we're in agreement. This is him saying, "I think it's interesting enough to expend that effort." No one else has to agree, but that a mind like his thinks so, and based on what I've read of these accounts, I'm inclined to agree.

I have no idea how to go about falsifying that, though. You'd at a minimum have to strictly monitor the information flow into a child's environment, probably from birth, to control for any other vectors for verifiable details. All in the hopes that some of the study population's children will mention something you can confirm they didn't overhear, or whatever, which turns out to comport with the life of someone who's passed. That's perhaps a tough sell to the ethics committee.

I know less about cycling diets than I do fighter camps but it is incredibly common for fighters to eat at fasting levels while continuing to train. The strict weight requirements cause that.

I was of the impression that it used to be the case that cyclists did this but that it was out of fashion now.

In any case lots of people do 1500 calorie efforts at fasting intake levels. It’s not healthy long term but it’s completely ‘normal’ for done athletes.

Investment of time by other developers who could be working on the features.

This isn't saying that mentoring can't be a positive ROI - just that the person needs to stay long enough.

> If you're fresh out of school and working, leaving a company is unthinkable in the first year, unlikely in the 2nd.

You should check out reddit /r/cscareerquestions and consider how many people advocate leaving under a year.

I will also note that for my own experience, while there are some developers who stay for a long time, there are more than a few that start and leave within a year.

In trying to get two developers that would stay on, we went through six developers. Four of which left within a year. This is for public sector and the lack monetary compensation shouldn't be a surprise to anyone... still, had four developers that we trained up and left.

The investment of time in getting them to that point where they could be useful contributors if they had stayed was more than what it would have taken the developers who mentored them to just do those tasks and not have hired anyone.

That doesn't touch on the actual pay and paperwork to hire someone.

I would much much much more readily trust the engineering of GM on trucks, but that's probably only meaningful if you actually intend to tow something. I have a Ford truck, but that's mostly due to rust concerns in the Southeast Michigan area.

All of this is to say that I would trust the domestic manufacturers on anything truck related before I would trust one of the foreign companies, Toyota definitely included. It's simply a matter of core competency, regardless of percentage of US content.

Thank you for taking the time to write this up!

Yeah, Cody's Lab is great.

Would buying gold coins as opposed to bars avoid this issue? I mean, I'd still want to test using the chemical and electric kits you mentioned. But is it safe to say that you can't hide tungsten inside a coin, and/or is there a foolproof way to detect that---without drilling it---since coins are thin? I really don't want to have to use a destructive test.

Since this is a startup site, if the answer to my question about coins is negative, I wonder if there could be a market for gold that is shaped in such a way that it can be easily verified? I did run across an outfit selling tiny gold "squares" that you could break off and give to people, but can't find it now. So maybe the idea of gold that you can 100% verify at home has already been done, though I don't think that was spiel.

This is the best I can provide, at the moment: https://apple.slashdot.org/story/19/03/28/1810247/internal-d...

Apple and its lobbyists aren't opposed to "Right to Repair" legislation, they're opposed to the currently proposed legislation because it requires them to make concessions to the process without any kind of guidance or oversight of the repairs made using the parts that they would be forced to provide. The link shows that, even prior to the Right to Repair bills proposed in most states, Apple was already developing a framework, internally, to find a way to allow third-party repair centers to repair their products while also maintaining some level of quality control. Unsurprisingly, this is exactly the announcement that was made today.

Unfortunately, I can't find the link that I was actually looking for because any search for the info I'm looking for is immediately drowned out by the Vice article mentioned in the post I just linked or some blogspam that just links to it. Suffice it to say, if they were opposed to third parties repairing their products, they wouldn't have allowed the repairs previously and they wouldn't have planned something out like this for over a year and a half.
100 times this. As nice as the stuff in the center display is, it's too far away from the forward field of view to use. I've been using a suction cup to hold my phone as well but it's very frustrating - it falls off every few months especially during temperature changes.

I came to a compromise of using ~1/4" aluminum rods anchored in the forward vent and around inside the CD player to create a phone holder cradled above and slightly off to the right of the main dashboard. This creates a mechanically sturdy enclosure that I really wish cars would come with built in.

A HUD would be even better but I don't think I could ever trust a display driven by car manufacturers' software stacks.
> iDrive often flakes out and starts sending a continuous stream of “play” signals to my phone

Automatically sending "play" commands - even only when the phone is connected (or reconnected) - is the worst thing ever that I've encountered. Especially with iOS devices. Every single time I turn the ignition on, my car forces phone to play music - and I rarely want that. Makes me want to kill whoever had that design idea (j/k)

I wonder if there are Bluetooth proxy devices (IDK, a pair of ESP8266s?) that just strip certain AVRCP commands sent within 5 seconds after (re)connections while passing through everything else...
Almost everyone has access to a car in the US, including 80% of people under the poverty line. That means that as a practical matter a Wal-Mart in an exurb can do a lot more to serve poor people than anything in a city (where prices are going to be inflated by the high cost of rent and labor in our urban areas).
Or even USENET, which used the same format at email.

Here in Massachusetts, I'd say there are not many playgrounds in suburbs at all. There are many very nice playgrounds in (certain) cities. I've always assumed that suburbs don't care as much about playgrounds and parks because most houses have a (large) yard already.

On the whole, suburbs also have nicer libraries, though there are examples to the contrary - e.g. Cambridge, MA has a really fantastic main library.

The quality of libraries and schools mostly tracks how wealthy the suburb/city is.

I agree with you that no matter how wealthy the suburb, food, entertainment and public transportation are going to be seriously underwhelming compared to a city.

It's not hard to do what they did, so I'm not surprised they did it themselves.

Having been in oddly many very different bicycle accidents of varying levels of catastrophe, I have a hard time believing that rotational forces are a real problem and not something made up by marketers trying to sell a new widget. Helmets are approximately half-spheres which bounce and skid. Protruding elements like visors are made to break away with minimal force so that nothing can catch. The contact surface is small and the external shell is hard and slick. So where is the rotational force coming from?

If you watch the video at https://mipsprotection.com their test scenario is the most bonkers forced thing I've ever seen. Their idea of a collision is where you are completely upside down with your feet are straight up in the air and your head straight down and you're falling onto a 45 degree incline. Screenshot: https://imgur.com/kIFN1ds

And besides all of that, the MIPS people talk about "10-15mm relative motion". It's hard to imagine that any random bike helmet strapped to any random head doesn't already give 10-15mm of relative motion even without MIPS.
