This is super interesting. The idea, "someone is always willing to make the money" is playing out in this unexpected way!

Got any links for a person to learn more about this cultural difference?
Well ok, but that point of view leads to 4x more dead people per capita than our way of doing things. If that works for you, then good for you. That’s a big pile of dead bodies, but ok.
Thank you for bringing some basic logic back to the table.

People love to imagine that odd phenomenon have simple solutions. This whole "tether was the sole cause of the bitcoin bubble" theory is completely ridiculous.

Go into a random bar in December of 2017 and you would hear people talking about btc and altcoins...
Diamond Age - Neal Stephenson: I assume a HN classic. Good read nonetheless. Crazy imaginative. Prior experience with Stephenson is limited to Snowcrash, which I found to be quite good as well.

Benjamin Franklin - Walter Isaacson: Biographies are immensely underrated. A good biography has had the effect of raising my own aspirations by orders of magnitude. Not sure what it is exactly about them. Being reminded that accomplished figures were humans first and foremost is always good. Either way, struck by the practicality of the man -- something I'm looking to emulate in my own life.
This isn't really accurate; according the report it was not programmed to stop for jaywalkers because it was causing too many false positives. The Volvo's built in pedestrian detector had also been disabled. The test driver was evidently not aware of this.
I highly recommend against using web components. Polymer has failed to take off in the past 3/4 years, and there are performance issues across browsers.

> People have to do what the state they live in and belong to orders them to do. That's part of the point of having a state. So if you can't trust a state you can't trust its people either.

So, I could say that American is sucks if I think Trump is sucks?

That is ridiculous. The first is that 'state is unauthentic' is a subjective speculation. And the most funny is that the conclusion 'people is unauthentic' is came from your first thought.

I can not say American is terrorist if Hillary wanna burn other country. Am I right?
I appreciate the insight!

>the brightness of the circle relates to the energy in the signal

What does this “energy” mechanically correspond to in the complex unit circle and how do these mechanics appear in the time-domain?

The ideal low pass filter’s mathematical application - of the frequency domain effects on natural signals - astonishes me and I can’t quite fathom the transformation; ie is the frequency space physical or a purely mathematical abstraction?

Ultimately: is the complex exponential function a natural algorithm?
They need to do a complete verification of releases on core requirements.

My understanding is that the vehicle that killed the pedestrian was configured in a way that allowed it to fail in a very basic way.

What they need is a way to ensure that the actual vehicle configuration is translated fully to the simulator, and to run through a set of basic scenarios with every release configuration. The equivalent of end-to-end tests that run as part of a continuous integration process.

I assume they have something like that, but some configuration aspect is not properly integrated into the simulation tests, or they sometimes skip the full test suite. Or somehow their test suite did not include jaywalkers.

That is what needs to be in place, and there should be employees of an actual federal agency verifying that process, not people who are in any way paid by Uber.

That actually should be applied to all self-driving companies. And down the line, there should be government-run simulations that verify releases pass basic scenarios. Which is going to be very difficult to build, but the government can get funding through taxes or something from the self-driving car companies. They could even mandate that Google and Tesla provide their simulation software to the federal government, and create interfaces that are compatible, and make every release run through both simulators.
Regarding student loans, yes, you are technically correct that they are dischargable in bankruptcy. However, the standard for federal student loans is that the borrower must be in a situation where there’s literally no hope of ever paying them back in order to qualify. This makes them _de facto_ nondischargable.

Private loans, IIRC, are dischargable with a lower standard, but it escapes me what the standard actually is.
Not quite the same situation, but your point is still valid.

Leeson was hiding losses fraudulently in error accounts as a malicious internal actor.

In these cases, clients are being extended credit they likely cannot underwrite, leaving RH exposed and liable to any losses theirselves.
The Facebook blog post would probably be a better source, since it explains the nature of the data:
https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2019/11/05/changes...

I.e. apps added to a group by an admin could get some metadata about members of the group.

(That blog post would also have been harder to mis-interpret than the NBC article. Half the early comments seem to think that this was about Facebook engineers improperly accessing data.)

This is when everyone finally heard about Bitcoin after the runup. And continued it until the overexuberance ran out of steam. Not like it’s the first time that happened.
BTC needs to move its decimal point.

Like Berkshire Hathaway:

Investors appear to like Berkshire Hathaway stock in the $60s and even the $70s more than they liked it at roughly $3500 a share.

Berkshire shareholders approved a 50-for-1 stock split of Berkshire's Class B shares yesterday. Trading began today.

The lower price is seen as an opening for small investors who couldn't afford the old four-figure price tag.

At yesterday's meeting, Warren Buffett told shareholders that the increased trading volume and liquidity for the Class B shares after the split could make it the key driver of Berkshire's market value. "The B may be the tail that wags the dog now."

The CPUC (state regulators) control almost everything about what PG&E is allowed to budget and charge.

Here's an example:

1. No dividend reinvestment tools so you’ll have cash drag unless you hand hold it

2. Inferior research tools

3. Fewer investment options (just stocks / etfs, no bonds or mutual funds)

4. Lacking support (ideally you don’t need this but having fantastic support can be nice over the long haul and most established firms have excellent support)

5. It’s only brokerage whereas pretty much anywhere else is going to allow you to consolidate retirement accounts

6. Tax reporting is a lot better in established firms but I might be dated here, looks like they built out some syncing tools in last year or so

I’m sure robinhood is fine & I wouldn’t be worried about losing money, and if it works for you great. But you can get a lot more from a bigger brokerage and I don’t know what they’re going to be able to do to differentiate now that free trades are mainstream.
Vote for Bernie if you want these things to happen. We can literally discharge all existing student debt by rolling back Trump’s ridiculous tax cuts for the wealthy. Tuition can be funded the same way going forward.
Paraphrasing: the notion of corporate citizenship should include corporate prisons.
The point remains, the job they’re asking the safety driver to do is incompatible with human attention.
Illegal in Australia too, and they absolutely will fine for you for it. Not only that, but they do "safety blitzes" where they stick cops near major pedestrian areas and just hand out tickets all day to people who cross on the pedestrian red, or cross more than 'x' metres from the crossing, whether there's cars coming or not.

Meanwhile red lights seem to be option for cars, and i've (very regularly) seen cars blow through proper red lights (not late-orange) right in front of cops who do absolutely nothing about it. Wife and kid had to quite literally dodge a car while they were crossing on their pedestrian green, right next to a cop, and when she got his attention he just shrugged and ignore her.
Jaywalker is the correct term. People who cross at the inappropriate crossing point.

It does not work like that.

If you have shared a bit of data, you have relinquished and lost control over it, passed it to someone else. This is what sharing means. If you want to keep a secret, don't share it, at least not with parties who are not legally required to keep your secret secret.

Privacy advocates ask for different things.

One desire is that entities who technically have access to someone's data, even in passing and partially, would stop snooping at these data and sell them. The primary way to do that is to encrypt everything end to end, rendering snooping useless. Simply not sending the data is also a popular measure where applicable, hence ad blocking and tracker blocking. Another way is seeking legal protection against over-sharing where concealing the data is impossible, like with medical or financial information.

Another desire is that entities with legal power to snoop and eavesdrop would have their powers explicitly curtailed. This is quite an uphill battle; powers that be don't want to yield a piece of the power.
So... share-cropping, basically?
When/if the price goes over 20k again, that's when animal-mode FOMO adrenaline will re-emerge. Even Nouriel Roubini will be buying.

Marxists make a distinction between "value" and "worth." The words are synonymous in English but etymologically different. Value is of French (or Latin) origin and is related to valew and valour. Worth comes from the Germanic words wert and werd. You can hear when you pronounce "value" and "worth" how different they sound.

To Marxists, "value" is extrinsic and subjective. "Worth" is intrinsic and objective.

Did Orion's worth increase by the threat of quitting? Clearly not. He or she didn't suddenly become a better developer, thus his or her work output didn't suddenly become worth much more. Did Orion's value increase by the threat of quitting? Clearly so. The valuation of his or her work output suddenly increased by 80%!

Marxists then make the point that our society focus way to much on the "value" of things, which often is nonsensical, when we instead should focus on what things are "worth."
There's no easy solution to what you are facing.

One thing that might be helpful is for you to go to therapy with your wife.
When your brain panics at interacting with other people, your perception of others might be skewed.
Maybe your therapists meant well and your anxiety got in the way of you continuing with them.
Your wife can help provide you with perspective with any therapist you meet.
Just a sanity check after a session can help with judging your own thoughts. Separating what is anxiety and what is your own thoughts.
Please try to find another therapist, one you connect with.

Also, check the laws with each therapist you meet with. They have strict privacy laws around those sessions.

Not sure I'd recommend the C++ standard for learning the language for a couple of reasons:

* It's gosh darn huge

* While not the hardest standard to read, it is still a standard, so has to be focused on really really low level detains and precise complete explanations instead of being a good learning resource

That said it is a great resource if you're ever confused about some corner of the language -- a lot of articles explain things slightly incorrectly.
Are you suggesting we set the max speed limit everywhere to 30km/hr so that in the event a pedestrian chooses to jump in front of a car, the car has time to react? Or what exactly are you advocating?
> their employees are on social services

I find this point irrelevant. As other posters have posted, the local store could rarely pay above minimum wage. Walmart not only beats minimum wage, but has a rather extensive benefit plan. (The same can be said for McDonald's, Chipotle, ChickFilA, and Starbucks.)

There is no need to be dense, of course I mean not straight away.

_Lucy turned off the light and slipped under the sheets, feeling Frank draw closer_ to her. He lay next to her and she reached up to caress his face softly and she kissed the side of his neck again, feeling him shiver against her. "You look beautiful." Frank looked down at her and smiled. "You look really good in those clothes, though." She kissed his cheek. "I know." "That's okay," he said and he reached out to kiss her, but then he slipped away. "Do you want anything else?" She smiled. "Nothing." He smiled back at her. He was still wearing his clothes from before. He wasn't as naked as he usually was. She reached around to cup his breast and she pressed her face against his. It was just her and him. "Are you ready for me?" Frank grinned. "Ready for what?" "For you," she said and she leaned over and kissed him again, her hands caressing his skin and his breasts, her mouth moving against his to taste his skin.

* His breasts? I mean sure, this is the 21st century I guess.
* Her mouth moving against his to taste his skin...
* They're both in bed fully clothed with the lights off, and lamenting how they're usually more naked.

I mean obvious inconsistencies aside, this is super fun to play with.
Furthermore, sometimes not even self driving car employees understand what is or is not a legal place for a pedestrian to cross a street, let alone their cars:

The burden of proof on this subject is incredibly low. Corporate espionage has been around for a long time, this is far less damaging/shocking/expensive than that.

> UK should be now getting 350 million GBP per week for NHS.

It hasn't left yet and the reality is that it'll take years to leave (if it does).

You could maybe justify £350 million a week over the course of a year based on a hard Brexit, where the UK doesn't pay the £30-£40 billion divorce settlement.

It's unclear how much will be spent in replacing EU infrastructure, but it should be overall beneficial to the UK once trade agreements are in place after a number of years.

>Someone told me you can actually be ticketed for crossing a road in the US?

Of course, not simply crossing but specifically crossing at inappropriate place.

I think the UK should also ticket the jaywalkers.
While it would be nice to be within walking distance of many daily places, there are real downsides: Noise, air quality, crime. I live in an incredibly quiet and peaceful neighborhood. I do have to drive a good 20 minutes to get to a major grocery store but Walmart is 10 mins away and a small grocery store less than 5. I do wish there was a coffee shop within 10 minutes of walking distance, but otherwise I can't imagine any upside for me personally in "walkable" cities. People selling their public transportation and walk-able cities just doesn't resonate with me at all, in fact it sounds horrible, but I'm glad the choices are there.
If there are any such stable deep-crust locations, they're most likely located under a continental location rather than oceanic, if my understanding is correct. Ocean basins reform at a higher rate (and hence: are more-recently-exposed crust) than continental plates.

The very oldest regions are two locations, presently in South Africa and Australia, previously joined, dating back several billions of years.

The Jack Hills region in Australia has been dated to 4.4 billions of years (the Earth itself is 4.5 billion):

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/news/2014/2/140224-oldest...

A region presently under Greenland was dated to 3.8 billion years, in 2007:

https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn11438-oldest-chunk-of...

The Nuvvuagittuq Greenstone Belt, near Hudson Bay, Canada, has been dated to between 3.7 and 4.3 billion years old:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuvvuagittuq_Greenstone_Belt

All of these are surface rock. My thought is that drilling from these locations might find very old subsurface structures as well. Though whether any relativistic time dilation could be observed is hard to say.

Mind your words. “Jaywalking” is not illegal or wrong or even inappropriate in most jurisdictions. Here in Ontario, it is only illegal if you are crossing the street near an intersection and deliberately trying to circumvent a light or other control on pedestrian crossing.

Crossing anywhee else is perfectly legal, and it’s a driver’s responsibility to avoid pedestrians doing perfectly normal things like crossing the fucking street.

Nothing inappropriate about crossing the street. What’s inappropriate is trying to blame the victim and make everyone in the world adjust their behaviour to coddle a few crooks trying to pump and dump the shares of their company that doesn't have a viable business model.

What’s inappropriate is deciding to cut costs by only putting one human in the test car, so they are responsible for monitoring the vehicle and safety, instead of splitting the job between two or more people, which is standard in the industry for test vehicles.

Jaywalker is not the correct term.
The politics of Brexit are also not very suitable for a HN on shorting the pound. By mentioning only the costs of remaining in the EU, not the ongoing benefits, you're being pretty disingenuous
What part of my post were you addressing? My whole argument is that in the long term, MS’s focus on the Enterprise and backwards compatibility caused them to miss out on all of the next waves of tech industry - including the web and mobile.

Even in their crowning achievement - the cloud, they are a distant second to AWS and Amazon always brags that they run more Windows instances in AWS than Microsoft runs on Azure.

MS’s revenue is half that of Apple’s and they have lower profits. Heck, last quarter Apple made about the same as Microsoft even if you subtract iPhone revenue.
The idea is that by default everywhere is appropriate, because pedestrians are more vulnerable than cars.
> NOP argues that because glyphosate does not “touch” the plants being certified, it is technically still “organic.” If that’s not the craziest assumption I’ve heard in regards to organic food production, I don’t know what is. For those of you who don’t know – anything that touches the soil eventually gets taken up by the plant. It becomes apart of the plants tissues and DNA. It is unavoidable.

IIUC, they’re spraying the ground with glyphosate to clear it, then after some time period of it dissipating, planting atop the soil but not applying the herbicide again during the crops growing phase.

If the plants being grown are not glyphosate resistant (e.g. “roundup ready”) and there’s a non-trivial level of it remaining in the soil, wouldn’t that kill the crops? Reversing that, are there any significant levels in the ground or absorbed by the plants at that point? Seems like it’s a “no”.

Unit testing is one technique used in autonomous vehicle verification, and that I think that includes the image classifiers and path planner, though I am less familiar with exactly how that is broken down, and how much is done in integration test like simulators vs unit test.

However, if you are saying that exhaustive unit testing of neural network based units is not possible, then I agree.
