Apple showed interest in buying McLaren a few years ago. I wonder if they approached any other small car manufacturers. At the very least it shows they had interest in bringing in outside talent and knowledge instead of doing it all solo. Maybe something has evolved in the background without press since then.

i'll probably support that through allowing custom markers at the datapoints. beyond that i'm not sure how much will be baked into the lib itself, but it will be possible to draw your own candlesticks or rubber duckies at x/y coordinates for any given datapoint by a callback that accepts the necessary positions, data values and access to the canvas context.
If android switches to bazel now that bazel is 1.0 does that mean we can switch from a completely undocumented tool to a poorly documented tool?
No. Just no.

It's the outcast like other folks are saying. It's just "different" - could be anything: small stature, sensitivity, socioeconomic status, race, religion, expressing that you enjoy learning, your mom sewing your clothes, whatever... If you're the minority of a population you're a target and putting it on "brain differences" makes me scoff.

You're just a rung on a social ladder that other people are willing to step on time and time again to make sure that they're not at the bottom.
> I have had CBP officers tell me that I have no right remain silent. I have had CBP officers tell me that I have no right to an attorney. I have had CBP officers tell to me that they will not let me into the country until I answer their questions. They are indeed liars. Stick to your guns and they will fold.

Same, to all of it. They also told me they were going to arrest me and charge me with interfering with a border control point. Somehow after another 4 hours of declining to answer questions I was released without charge (into a northern Vermont snowstorm where I had no cell service and had to hitchhike to not freeze, due to them having sent the Montreal-Boston bus on without me, but that’s another story).
Not to mention BSA, who made rifles before they made motorbikes.
Side loading of apps is a necessity in iOS/iPadOS/tvOS. I hope the various lawsuits on Apple's controls have some effect on this. I understand the benefits of the control Apple currently has, but it's inappropriate for our needs as a society. Same goes for right to repair. I believe Apple is on the wrong side of history on both these counts (at a minimum).
I believe B & O just did the enclosures and used other manufacturers parts so you basically bought a Philips TV in another jacket.
Computers and iPods are a lot closer to a smartphone than to a car.
> I'm surprised at this - seems bizarre that it's a 'great product' but isn't commercially viable in any way? As an aside, I really can't understand why people are so enthusiastic about Dyson products

You already gave the answer: Dyson products are pricey for what they offer, so Dyson has a healthy profit margin (20%+), which isn't possible at this time with EV due to very strong competition that's not keen on being profitable, but makes very good cars and has a significant lead in advanced car software too.
Anyone has any opinions on TF2.0? They've released it recently, and it seems like it should be much closer to PyTorch now, but I don't know enough to evaluate it properly.

I was in a public school district that made public the funding received by each school. Because it was a large metro district, we had wealthy areas and impoverished ones.

The schools in worse areas were getting about 30% more money from the district, per student, than the wealthier ones. This was to balance out the superior amount of parental funding in the richer neighborhoods.
I'm trying to square this with the rise of the money no object car. Is there really not 1000? People will to spend £2m for this when Bugatti seems to have no problems doing the same.
The exact actions, depend on the people in charge ultimately. But if I had to bet that the Chinese government, with a track record for organ harvesting their own people, having forced labor camps of chinese Uyghurs, and "disappearing" anyone who criticizes, would treat their subjects nicely, then I would probably lose that bet.
> Making someones opinion or feelings criminal is insanity

You are right, but "hate crimes" are not just bad thoughts, they are bad thoughts brought through to action. It's one thing to rationally defend yourself from an attack and unintentionally kill the attacker, it's entirely another thing if you act on your toxic worldview based on bullshit and someone ends up harmed or worse. It's just too bad we don't apply this thinking to things like... oh, I don't know, religions that actively try to prevent their congregations from getting immunized.
I'm pretty much the same way. No pets, a lot of hardwood floors, mostly oriental carpets where I have them, etc.

I got a V8 after my old cheap handheld vacuum died, in part because I almost never could be bothered hauling my old canister vac out of the closet. (I have a housekeeper once in a while so that mostly takes care of the full-house periodic vacuuming.)

It works plenty well for my needs and it's so quick and easy to pull out and do a quick pass of a room or two.

True hyaline cartilage cannot "build up." The good stuff (intra articular) is a precious resource that you can only lose, not gain.

The cartilage in your nose and ear are different, and besides, the stuff that's blocking your boxer friend's nose, and causing cauliflower ear is not really cartilage. It's fibrous growth which has a blood supply. It's your body trying to replace real cartilage with a poor substitute.
Stop using air dryers in bathrooms. They blow fecal matter all over the place.

Thanks for the reply.

A bunch of the problems I had might be due to out of date js tools, since apparently Bazel has been breaking compatibility a lot pre 1.0. Things I pull from the docs of the main js/ts bazel libraries are more likely to error than work. Will wait a while for things to catch up now that it's 1.0 and check back in next year or something.

Thanks again.
> To me, it's a glorified dustbuster.

I recently bought V11 and have been blown away with how well it does its job and how effortless vacuuming has become. As a corgi owner, I am forced to do vacuuming pretty much every day and I could not stand dragging a regular vacuum cleaner with a cord everywhere, especially up the stairs... I honestly don't understand how I was able to live without a cordless vac for so long!
Nope, dude/tte, thanks for proving MY points so succinctly. You rush to dismiss and trivialize any comment that disagrees with your ignorance, by pretending it must be somehow not credible because it's "paid Chinese government content". BTW, that sounds quite paranoid. Perhaps time to see a psychiatrist, hmm? Let me ask you, are the Chinese agents in the room with you, right now?

Anyway, it's clear you are NOT listening to as-you-are-unqualified-to-judge "genuine" Chinese people. But keep pretending you are, just for kicks, for us all, thanks!

Anyway, anyway, please please please get away from the useless, pathetic and afraid ad hominem and consider the arguments. Can you realistically support the actions of violent criminals trashing property and beating up dissenters, but disguising their actions as "standing with" so-called freedom and democracy?

Sure, I get it's easier to pretend and focus on the make-believe fantasy that everyone who doesn't agree with you must be a Chinese agent, but, what if the truth is they ARE all Chinese agents, but they're right anyway, whatcha gonna do then, huh, pal?
The parallels you are drawing aren't even close to being realistic. Hong Kong protesters want accountability for police brutality. You are twisting the truth.
Can you actually use the money while you're not living in UK?

To use a simple example, say I'm a British citizen living in the US who is a freelancer (let's assume I'm non-resident, not just non-domiciled). Let's say I have US citizenship as well to get around any immigration issues. I create a company in the Isle of Man (assume I meet whatever qualifications are needed to do this). Can I just deposit my checks in the UK bank account, pay no taxes, and use the money in the US without violating any British laws? What about when traveling to the UK or EU? I'm almost sure I'd be violating American tax law, but I'm now curious how to put this into practice.
I also need to use the internet and apps and yet Android or Windows will never get a cent of my money, but Apple does. You're the target if you value what the product design emphasises. In this case, you're on the other end of the spectrum of Dyson. Much like an India is on the other end of the spectrum of Apple.

I didn't say they couldn't be thousands of years, but suggesting hundreds of millenia ignores many observed events that have taken place on a much, much shorter time scale. The numbers referenced in the wikipedia article aren't even in their supposed citation, which is definitely not written by a supporter of the theory.

I choose grey wolves into chihuahuas because it's an example of a complex mammal undergoing significant genetic change over a much shorter time period than 100ky. For less complex animals there are even more dramatic examples.

I mean, you're factual incorrect about much of your statements.
> You disprove yourself by mentioning Netflix

This isn't how equilbria work. Netflix was a superior product to piracy in many ways: no perceived legal risk, reliable access, high quality guaranteed, way better ease of use. These barriers were high enough that plenty of people didn't pirate at all and stuck with nonsense like DVDs for way too long, so the incentive path pointed smoothly towards switching to Netflix, a Pareto improvement for non-pirates and a fairly easy trade-off for pirates.

There's no such path for web content: adblockers are unquestionably legal, easy to set up, provide a better experience, and even non-users of adblockers have a trillion non-paywalled sources in an ecosystem where it's tough for strong brand loyalty to survive en masse. What advantages do you imagine a paywall option offering to people when their alternative is better in almost every respect?

Bazel documentation is fine from what I've seen. Moreover if you ask questions on Stack Overflow, members of the Bazel team will often respond (kudos especially to László for his support on SO).
Is this intentional or just an accident?

> Sounds like a useless comparison when a petrol pump can serve far more vehicles per hour than a charging cable.

It is, but you also have to consider all the charging points people have at their homes. Depending on the type of area (urban/rural) people charge 80% of the time or more at home rather than at public charging points.
Of course not. I'd think/hope most of us here are able to consider multiple, separate thoughts over something as complex as this.
See this is where it gets truly silly. You may not be wrong about some form of soft-Brexit, or EEA status, but whichever level of closeness you consider that is not "hard Brexit" would have required dropping one of the UK's "red line" issues. Anything else that was not Theresa May's deal needed the EU offering cake and cookies for free. It wasn't so much she couldn't sell it as the hardliners of the Tory party wouldn't take it. For 3 years the UK's negotiating position has been "la, la, la, not listening", whilst asking for the impossible (or cake).

Michel Barnier, the EU's chief negotiator summarised it all beautifully in a single slide he put out in about 2016 or 17. Each level of softer Brexit available is ruled out by a UK red line.

Should you want a breakdown, CGP Grey did a short video about "that slide". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agZ0xISi40E

I might take that bet core for core, matched node size (i.e. 14nm), run out of tmpfs or NVMe storage, and with both systems protected against Spectre, Meltdown etc. (i.e. no cheating by ignoring the ISA specifications)...

Slightly OT, but if you limit the playing field to open ISA / fully owner controlled systems, POWER9 is so far out front in terms of performance that it looks like an outlier. ;)

> They've been breaking backwards compatibility constantly

I maintain a ruleset and have been on top of Bazel upgrades for a few months. My experience hasn't been so bad. There definitely are a lot of deprecations, and some code changes required, but it was pretty manageable IMHO.

With that said, I agree that some stacks are more first class citizens than others. But I feel this is more due to some stacks' departure from the C++ style of build management than an issue of Bazel changes. At our company, the Go org has had a pretty good experience with migrating from Buck to Bazel. For our web org, the main challenges have been that Bazel doesn't really lend itself well to dealing with codebases where inputs and outputs co-exist in the same filesystem tree (and this is incredibly common in the web world with things like babel transpiled files, yarn offline caches, lerna, etc) or where the ecosystem has a bad relationship with symlink handling (e.g. jest, flow, webpack, --preserve-symlinks, etc)
They actually vary hugely by state, because each state created them under a new law. You have to specify a state to have a good discussion.
Ah it reminds me of Kimono Labs. I miss that product, it was fantastic.
If you want a background service you currently have to create the code for it in Java, and call that code with the JNI. You can register callbacks for communicating the other direction (towards native code). A pain, but possible.
> V6 - corded replacement

There is a huge range of corded vacuums that should not exist. I'd say this line is marketing crap. Even V10 isn't corded replacement across all corded vacuums.

> I need to clean things, I think I'm the target audience!

It all depends on your use case. If all you have is hard floor and a studio sized apartment, you don't even need a vacuum cleaner. Same way not every one needs a Ferrari to get from point A to B. Dyson's price range is certainly a good indicator as to why it's for a smaller market than your average vacuum cleaner.
>Over here in the UK the highest interest you'll get on a savings account at the moment is about 0.5%, and most accounts give much less

Just looking at the options available from Monzo right now, you can get a 1.15% rate on a minimum £10 deposit (next day withdrawl). Not the most exciting rate of interest, but certainly not quite as dire as 0.5%!

Yet another 'may' article....
I think tensorflow dominates industry purely because of its capability of exporting the model into a coreml Android model or easy of moving it to production in a GCP environment or in whatever form. Pytorch might have to build a good production pipeline around it to catch up in this game.

With fastai module that's built on Pytorch learning and developing Deep Learning solutions have become a lot easier. So there's a real game on now

Good suggestion. I got to review The Humane Interface in its later stages and it hugely influenced the way I design.

It amused me to note that the manuscript came in the form of double-spaced Courier with hand-drawn illustrations. That seemed odd from a key designer of the Macintosh, which introduced the notion of fonts and page design to regular users. But he didn't have to do page design for this; that would be done by actual designers at the publisher. He picked the interface that did what he needed and left the rest of the job to somebody else.
These types of discussions were popular with the barracks' lawyer types when I was in, circa ~2010, and I'm sure it was even more popular to debate before the internet was around to actually answer the question.

The root of the idea is to get soldiers to think about the "rules of war", so if nothing else its been very successful in that area. I wonder if any one has done a study on to the effectiveness of these various training(s), to see if it has a measurable impact on behavior
I don't get the times in this thread. 30 seconds is still ridiculously long. I could dry my hands with a hair dryer at minimum setting faster than that. On Dyson ones I used I could dry my hands in under 15 seconds. How are you people drying your hands?

Not inherently, but being convinced of falsehoods by a propaganda campaign should be of concern.

If you voted for McCain because you believe Republicans have better tax policies than Democrats, I'm fine with that. If you did it because you believe Obama's a secret Muslim infiltrator from Kenya, I'm not.

Ideally yes. The police could've been more professional and handled it better. But they are not robots, they are human beings too.

I'm not say that makes them right. I'm saying I can understand why they stayed on the sideline. And I wouldn't disagree that those in charge at the scene should be held accountable for their inaction.
The v6 is old, if your gf's had it for a while the battery's probably on its last legs, and it didn't last that long to begin with anyways.

I don't think you appreciate the relative risk from CO2 pollution (or really, warming in general which then brings CH4 and water vapor into the mix).

Marine shipping uses the dregs of refining: bunker fuel. The have absolutely enormous two-cycle engines that run on something in the neighborhood of tar and motor oil. It is an inefficient combustion with trash fuel. NO2 and SO2 is bad, but it's nowhere near the danger of global warming, and shipping is otherwise extremely efficient in terms of carbon intensity/kg/km cargo shipped.

Would you do a rough energy life cycle (back of envelope) on the energy expenditures of a shipping tanker full of solar PV cells (ie, building local factories, the cost of time until they are operating, cost of building up upstream supply chains, and then more prosaic PV vs baseline grid carbon intensity per kwh consumed?). I think you'd find there is some nuance in what is optimal.

Shipping produce vs local and seasonal is a big waste, agreed. All of that is refrigerated multi-modal, too, and ships are hardly the worst offenders in that logistic chain.

I think non-CO2 shipping pollution tends to get pulled out as a distraction device in these discussions, though I don't think that's why you're bringing it up.

Not even close. A car is way much more than a motor and 4 wheels, specially in 2019. You need suspension, aerodynamics, an infotaiment system, seats, air conditioning, doors (dont understimate this one), a music playback system, a good display for the driver... And this in a cabin that can confort people from temperatures and noise from the outside. Making a decent car in incredibly difficult. + Safety features required for the current standards.
