Huawei 6G: Huawei Is Working on a 6G Technology, Tells CEO
"To that end, incinerating plastic to generate energy makes a lot of policy sense in a 'peaker' plant"

Whilst I don't disagree, I do have concerns A) That the need for fuel will see unsuitable material diverted to incineration. B) That to help with the payback, it wont just be run as a peaker. C) That it will be sold by politicians as a solution, rather than the least worst option.

Basically it's the same dynamic as waste to power plants.

>forced package management (as opposed to decentralized distribution of apps)

What??? This isn't true at all, you can install deb/rpm packages you download from the internet if you want, there's nothing stopping you. The truth is that you're strongly encouraged to install your applications from a trusted central repository because it's safer and more convenient.

I'd also note that this is not unique to Linux. Android, iOS (this one is actually restrictive), and macOS all use the same model too. Windows also tried it with UWP and their store, and mostly just didn't succeed for legacy reasons.
When you are new you should do exactly what the client says. When you are experienced you should get clients that are willing to pay extra for your experience.
You'd still be leaking through dns (and basically all non-http communication) and applications which don't adhere to proxy settings, which are a lot. Webrtc doesn't go through the proxy either iirc

There's no way to link to a news story without at least excerpting the headline, as otherwise you'd not know what you were clicking on. And snippets have always been a part of search engines, which is why I didn't separate them.

Regardless, Google allows you to request links but no snippets for your content, again, it's all possible with pre-existing protocols and standards.

Really, Google is trying to strong-arm nobody. I don't see how anyone could conclude that. Google offer publishers a range of reasonable options from full cooperation to partial indexing to non-inclusion, always has, and those publishers have repeatedly refused to take advantage of any of these features.

What they want isn't control over linking or snippeting. That is obvious. What they want is the status quo, plus lots of money.

> proper HDR camera that can handle overload of light and records enhanced spectrum without clipping information (those exist)

_No_, they don't. CMOS sensors are consistently limited by readout speed (bits-per-second off of the sensor), so FPS, resolution, and dynamic range are fundamental tradeoffs. The bleeding edge of HDR, high-framerate, high-res sensor are full of dirty hacks here like PWL and hardware bracketing to achieve what they do, and it is nothing like your quoted figures.

1000 fps limits your exposure time to 1ms unless you are achieving that 1000fps with sensor arrays, which adds tons of complexity to still sensors, let alone trying to get a reasonable picture from a fast moving vehicle. There is a reason if you ever look at a high-framerate camera setup they are using like 3+ studio lamps to throw enough light on the subject.

This "high sampling frequency allows you to do decisions on millimeter scales" is speculative nonsense, and does not even try to address camera spacial frequency limitations that would prevent this.

I work on HDR CMOS cameras for the automotive market as my day job. I would love a link to one of these enhanced spectrum cameras you speak of.
I would understand his estimate as that he thinks they have the capability to send humans to space with Starship next year. The actual flights might come later, as for proper safety evaluation, tests and of course small enhancements to spaceship.

Fundamentally, humans could have flown to ISS with the Dragon 1 capsule, but hopefully, the Dragon 2 flies manned next year.

But as Elon said, progress with Starship should be faster, as they can fly the first human-rated one many times in a short time to demonstrate its safety. The space shuttle did 135 flights over its entire life-time. A single Starship could do that in a year, if needed.
Dexed is great, although I would love to have the canonical set of DX7 patches that shipped with the original synth. Most of the sysex stuff I found for it seems to be tweaked (or part of thousands of other presets and hard to single out).

> leading to several fuselage breakups

[citation needed]. It's what AJ is positing, but it's presented like a correlation, I don't think investigators called that out an a cause of the breakups, and it's been 10 years since that was made and this doesn't seem to be a major problem. One thing I read suggested that the fuselage is strongest at the wing, so the break happens away from that section. That, and hard landing is an understatement; One landed short of the runway, another overshot it, and one dropped onto it.

I used to hike up Granite Peak in the Cascades, maybe 6 times in the 90s and 00s. That’s about 4 miles in, 3800 feet up, to reach a fire lookout tower much like the one in the article. One memorable time, I got passed by a lookout staffer muscling up the mountain with a propane tank strapped to his already heavy pack. By the time I caught up with him at the top, the tank had been put to good use, baking a batch of chocolate chip cookies. He shared :-)
Nice! It would be nice to a comparison between GRU and LSTM
Another pain point on text AA: Many renderers mix up colorspaces on antialiasing. For example freetype assumes a linear colorspace when calculating the antialiased bitmap but AFAIK both GTK and QT apply it directly on sRGB without any adjusting. The result is apparently thickened fonts when displayed black on white and thinned fonts when displayed white on black.

Edit: Some background can be read on [0].

Most project never get to the point where they need more than 99.9% which is perfectly feasible with a single server. Interesting remark nonetheless.
It seems more likely to me that those "devops tools" only solve a small slice of the big sysadmin cheese, and not in a flexible way (one useful skill of sysadmins is being able to react on the spot to what's coming to them at that moment, using basic tools and logical reasoning, much like a firefighter).

Being able to differentiate between what's worth to automate and what is not is another one of those useful skills. Knowing a scripting language to glue those basic tools together is too. Being proactive (assisted by monitoring software and knowledge of the underlying systems so you can tell what consequences some event have) is another...

None of that is new nor surprising to sysadmins. It might sound fresh to others, being trapped to reinvent a small slice of it (badly). Also, "devops" is just another funky management fad by now.

Recurrent Neural Networks for Enhancement of Signature-Based NIDS
The feature is in beta, and it is enabled on cars lacking the latest hardware. I think it would be reasonable to expect issues especially for those cars.

I know it's very popular to cherry pick incidents and attack Tesla these days, but, nobody else is pushing the envelope. And nothing about this feature is putting anyone at significant risk. These are inconveniences that have occurred, and nothing else. In the meantime, the pursuit of self driving cars is pushed forward greatly through the collection of this data.

In the end, this will benefit everyone.

For now, we can sit back and enjoy the cringey videos this will produce.
Parents are uninformed just because there is a price of getting information which they do not want to pay. Parents needs to ask their kid about her day and to talk with a teacher sometimes. Parents could know everything, but they need to make an actual effort for that and to keep making efforts.

This efforts is a good thing against parental anxiety. When parents did something they might feel that they fulfilled their role of parents and stop there. When they got information for free, they didn't do anything yet as a parents, they may feel obliged to do something. There is a good chance that they would be unable to find a constructive thing they could do, so they might do a random thing.
Maybe they refuse to work with you because - for example - it's a religiously-conservative society and you have been outed as a homosexual?

Isn't the more obvious way to defend his belief pointing out the cases where teenagers above the age of consent, in consensual relationships with each other, keep getting arrested and jailed for making child porn because they took nude selfies on their phone?

That seems like the most bizarre and harmful outcome of deciding there's no such thing as consenting 'paedophilia' - something as normal as two 16 year olds hooking up and using their smartphone can turn into a disaster. That can happen any time the definition of child for sexual consent is different from the definition of child for child porn laws, something that you'd think would never happen in any rational legal system, but does!

The car only moves forward as long as you hold a button on your phone - as soon as you let go it stops. You are supposed to observe the car moving at all times. So logically, if you see that the car is about to collide with something, you let go of the button and the car stops. What else is it if not user error then?
With how complex these systems are, I wonder when companies will start open sourcing and using reproducible builds to show there's nothing up their sleeves. For Microsoft, it clearly gives away too much, but for a company like Huawei facing bans over security, it gets closer to showing there's no government backdoor...unless it's in the hardware.

Did you actually watch the keynote? It's painfully obvious they are marketing it specifically to reference monitor buyers. They stressed the features those customers would care about super hard and made outright comparisons to products only those buyers would even know exist let alone actually buy.

So yes, their primary market target is that group.

That being said, coming out and saying "Hey man, we made this thing that normally costs like $40k for only $5k isn't that pretty impressive?" should resonate with anyone interested in tech. I guess the issue here is that Apple assumed people not interested in this product would just not get all upset about something that doesn't involve them. But that's not how we are these days is it? Seems like people can't help but attack everything they see that doesn't precisely please them.
Except Apple have a lovely ‘Skip’ button at every step of the process.

Many other companies do. They just stop short of releasing obviously substandard and dangerous technologies into the wild.

It is not so simple. Many kinds of cancer cells can use ketones too.
Yup - though there are still safety problems, especially when it comes to inputs that might set off the trigger circuitry e.g. a lightning strike might have set off some early weapons. See Eric Schlosser's Command and Control for a history of nuclear weapons safety.

(BTW - even a fizzle can have the force of a pretty large conventional bomb. e.g. the first North Korean nuclear test, which probably fizzled, had a yield of something like 1kt TNT-equivalent, and the failed attempts to make a uranium hydride bombs still yielded something like 200t TNT-equivalent.)
That sounds completely alien to the high output corporate environments I recognise. Sounds like the book may well be a wrong summary of Grove after all.

The best executives are people who understand their reports work well enough to do it themselves, if only they had the time. That means an executive absolutely can and should not only break ties, but even override their reports regularly if they aren't making the right decisions (hopefully with training so they come into alignment with the executive's way of thinking).

The idea that a man like Steve Jobs did nothing but create vague 'values' is absurd. Yes, he did that. He also "micro-managed" decisions like how many buttons a phone should have, what programming languages developers should use and so on. Without this kind of decision making how should an organisation ever learn how to translate values into concrete decisions?

Your depiction of an execute implies a completely passive entity who simply aggregates decisions made below them, with no insight or experience of their own. There certainly are execs like that - ineffective ones.
You could say that about anything. The problems with Facebook isn't Facebook because there are other social media websites. Guns aren't a problem because people stab each other with knives.

(My feeling is that if the feature isn't more reliable than a 95th percentile human for the subset of functionality, it probably shouldn't be released.)
> The feature is in beta

I. Don't. Care.

The way I see it is that if someone's Tesla crashed into my car in the parking lot then as far as I am concerned it is 100% the fault of the owner and the owner should compensate me 100%.

The fact that it wasn't technically their fault but instead it was bad software matters nil to me. To me the only person I interacted with is the Tesla owner, and that's who I will put blame on. I don't care if the owner is able to defer blame to someone else. They can do that, but I want "mine" from the owner.

This is true in theory, but I live in a city where tuition to a Top 15 college is $400 per semester, almost nothing.

Yet, people who need to cover their own living expenses have a far smaller success rate, need to drop out more often or need to pause studies to work.

Programs to cover these living expenses exist, but they are limited, and not everyone who is not eligible for these can easily cover all expenses.
