> I remember reading in school that freedom of movement of goods and people was one of your founding principle

Freedom of movement != not showing documentation. (And it doesn't need to be a passport)

The simplest example is getting into any country you're a citizen of from abroad.

Some Schengen airports have security->passport (example AMS), some others have passport->security (example CDG T2), it's a non-issue.

Pretty much every country checks passports when you're leaving. The US doesn't as I pointed out in another comment, so they can charge you for a transit visa. (Some other countries allow sterile transit and don't check passports on exit - UK comes to mind - but you need a passport to travel to pretty much anywhere else from there)

> "temporary" controls that don't seem temporary at all

They have an end date. That's pretty much the definition of temporary. And yes there were previous temporary checks that have come and gone.

(If temporary checks weren't possible I guarantee how we would be reading about how the EU was undemocratic for not allowing member states to control their borders yada yada yada, the usual cynicism and uninformed rants that are so common here)
If the US wants denuclearization it should dismantle its own nuclear arms.

They are already closing their factories (or reducing capacity) in many countries. I know Honda will close by 2021 in England and Turkey.

May be, Turkish government preparing for this.

"What if they close their factories one day" is the question in their mind?

Whatever the case is, it is a good news for everybody. I believe every country must build their own technology to compete others.

>Where do you draw the line on technology? Are you hunting and foraging with your own hand made weapons? Is the tent you sleep in composed of furs? Technology is all around us, no matter how far you move or hide, and it seems arbitrary to draw the line at "cell phone bad", then argue that you need to get kids to go "back to the Earth"

Just because things aren't black or white and exactly measurable, there doesn't mean we can't make distinctions and decide qualitatively, or that if someone accepts technology X% then they need to accept it 100% and bend over backwards to whatever tech is popular...

The "slippery slope" argument than if you forego cell phone addiction you must also "hunt and foraging with your own hand made weapons" is also bad -- as if every new invention is an absolute must have, and people shouldn't live without it, or set their own criteria, lest they forego civilization entirely.

>That's idealistic romanticism, and unless you're running around in leather skins with a wooden bow and hand woven string, it's all pretending that one can survive without the trappings of modern life.

We survived for millennia without the "trappings of modern life", and we survived without commonly available cellphones even up to 1995 or so, and smartphones up to 1998 or so, so it's not like we absolutely must have them or are savages. Not having a smartphone at all or going on a mobile-diet is actually a thing in hacker circles, which are far from savages...

There are millions of people who do without this or other trappings by choice (not to mention billions by lack of money), who still do just fine.

In fact a couple of the richest people (ship owners level rich) I know use some crappy 20-year old style cellphone (not a smartphone) and avoid being arbitrarily reachable by others. It's not some luxury those "trappings of modern life" often it's the opposite: the passtime of slaves and necessary tools of working stiff to be easily found.

No, a t-test makes no assumptions that the underlying data is Gaussian. Again, most ml is done on raw data. If the raw feature is bimodal then the raw data is bimodal.
regulated work hours are not the solution. the change of paradigm should be - people being paid for outcomes, not for hours sitting in a chair. To do that, govts would have to create (or allow creation of) the infrastructure for freelancing to become the most viable lifestyle choice.

[..] The "head tax" that Siegel initiated a few years ago, as one possible solution, was overwhelming passed by voters in 2018.

Beginning Jan. 1, companies from mom-and-pop shops to Google, will be charged a tax, based on the number of employees they have working in the city and the revenue will fund infrastructure projects.

"Right now, Mountain View's budget is balanced," Siegal said. "The difficulty is investing in infrastructure. And that's where we are targeting this."

Siegel says the city met with companies of all sizes while crafting the legislation. The end result is that it is a progressive tax and small companies may only have to pay a few hundred dollars.

The tax is expected to generate more than $6 million annually -- about half coming just from Google.

"You can't build a transit line based on donations," said Sigel. "You need regular money, so over a period of years, it's actually going to generate a lot of money that we can invest in our infrastructure."
But regional leaders have raised concerns. They are critical of the fact that it is not a business tax, but a general tax, which means the city could spend the money on other projects.[..]
I missed a word. I meant "Irregular quadrilaterals" where no 2 sides are equal. But since it got an upvote, I am glad the meaning came through anyway.
Yeah... no. I'd rather bang my head against the wall until it bleeds profusely and I figure out how to synthesize my own OpenSPARC cores and enjoy myself on 64-bit MC68080 which gets faster and faster with every accelerator update.

This or (especially) 3x8 is what I've thought is about the "right" amount of work to count as full-time when you're selling your labor, for some time now. It's past the tipping point where your employer stops dominating your entire week, but still enough to remain good at whatever you do at work, with enough multi-hour time blocks to still get plenty accomplished.
mine is too, i also just buy the books, strip the drm, and load it up using calibre so i have no need for wifi on my kindle
But they do it individually once it's implemented. If they pay (just making this up) 10% in taxes why not advocate for higher taxes and then just go ahead and pay extra and do what you believe in while also advocating for higher taxes?

It's like if I buy a big SUV and say that I think we should all drive EVs but I'm not going to do it until someone makes me, but I really believe it!

Some categories are blocked, like daycare and schools. They'll also prevent anything from showing up, pokemon included, from areas that don't have recognized roads or paths. There is a park near my house that has a paved path through the woods that doesn't show up in the pokemon go app, so nothing appears there because the game doesn't want to encourage you to wander through the woods.
Because nobody goes after them for it.
To me, the issue here isn't (just) that someone felt extremely uncomfortable with a diversity exercise - it's the way their concerns were handled. Rather than empathizing with the person and learning from the experience, HR ignored the person's discomfort, and chose to "do some digging" on them instead.

They should build 25,000 or more apartments at Moffett Field / NASA Ames. Use the runways as streets, build 10-15 story buildings with retail at the base. Sheath Hanger One with transparent solar panels. Then many can walk / bike / scooter northwest to Google land over a new pedestrian bridge, or southeast to Amazon / Yahoo etc. The VTA light rail runs alongside. The proposed CA law wants to force high density housing along transit corridors. The empty fields at Moffett are next to a transit corridor.

> why the fuck and how can Android phone and other embedded device makers get away with not publishing anything?

In general, the answer is that Linus Torvalds especially, and kernel developers in general, are very uninterested in filing copyright lawsuits, and it's them who have standing to bring a GPL violation lawsuit, rather than you as a purchaser -- it's not your rights that have been legally infringed, it's the code author's rights.

If the device manufacturer is not a US company (like the often-Chinese Android phone manufacturers), filing that lawsuit would be especially difficult even if the authors wanted to.

In these Sony and HP cases, they aren't required to put the source code on their firmware download pages. They're required to offer and produce it in response to a written request under GPLv2, or to instead bundle it with the hardware (e.g. on companion CD). You might find they actually do one of those two, since they're large US companies with mostly competent legal departments.

Incidentally, it took a lawsuit, or at least the imminent threat of one, for Tesla to start publishing kernel source: https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2018/may/18/tesla-incomplete-... . I think the lawsuit was primarily filed on behalf of Busybox authors rather than Linux authors.
They have customers already, one (Argonne National Labs) is given explicitly.

The issue with using ‘industry standard’ benchmarks is that it's like measuring a bus' efficiency by shuttling around a single person at a time. The CS-1 is just bigger than that; the workloads that it provides the most value on are ones that are sized to fit, and specifically built for the device.

This does make it hard to evaluate as outsiders (certainly for similar reasons I never liked Graphcore), but I don't think it means anything as grim as you say. The recipe fits.
I had a similar knee-jerk reaction, but the midwest covers a huge region and there are still isolated undeveloped parts.
I don’t think it will. Friday is Friday because the weekend is too short to meaningfully enjoy. Right now you have 2 days and a few hours, though Sunday night is mostly a wash because you need to rest before work. A lot of people like weekend trips - you have to meticulously plan something to make that work for a regular work week.

Think about how much easier (and relaxing) it is to plan something to do with 3-day weekends. If that happened every week you wouldn’t need to be distracted on a Thursday (or Monday) to make it work.
When Google (or any company) hires someone to work for them, the state/city immediately starts to see more tax money coming in (payroll taxes, consumption taxes, if they buy a home, property taxes).

There will definitely be a boost in revenue in the beginning, but the end result will be less companies willingly expanding here and a declining of tax revenue, not an increase.
Everyone needs to stop this hypercorrection nonsense. That only applies to centuries and millennia because they're ordinal numbers. You say "20th century" and "21st century". But you say "1990s" and "2020s". Unless you start saying "201st decade" you are wrong.

Also, nobody ever complained about decades until just this year, because it's obviously wrong. I don't even remember it in 2010. I think it's a bunch of kids who vaguely remember the 21st century starting in 2001 (which is correct, of course) but never realized the reason, and are having hypercorrection issues now that they're older.
Thanks for the correction. I will update the drawings asap.

Since you seem to know the machine well, maybe you can shed some light on something i was unable to clarify: What is the fastest way to clear a framebuffer to a desired color on an Amiga. My hypethesis is that it was done with the Blitter, by disabling all DMA entries "doing something else". Do you have any idea?
If that kill cord actually killed the laptop/drive over just shutting it down, I'd tend to agree.

There is an ocean of difference between being open to new ideas and just letting any new concept get your equal mindshare without a compelling reason like evidence.

There is a reason no one that is respected talks about these "crackpot" ideas. The established ideas are here because they survived decades of trying to be proved wrong but they survive since they fit observed nature. New ideas are just that: new.

When someone introduces a new type of database HN doesn't say "why won't people take new ideas with an open mind??", they say "SQL works and has been proven. You have to prove your new idea is better before I'll use it."

Exact same concept.

You explained well why it's legal, but not why it's not a problem. Many things that are, and even should be legal, are also problems. Such as Fox ignoring whoever they choose - they certainly should have that right, but that doesn't mean it's not a problem when they present a misleading narrative.
I'm also very curious about their performance per watt / dollar for the standard ML datasets out there (facial recognition etc). We have a reasonable sense of both training time and runtime for these in the cloud (and it is falling FAST).
I vehemently disagree. To me, this is a classic case of people who believe in YAGNI versus people who plan (sometimes too much) for the future. I've been burned too many times to be able to adhere to the YAGNI protocol. Sure, these low/no-code solutions may work fine for a while but eventually, they'll hit an impassable roadblock and then they're stuck until they either decide that roadblock isn't worth overcoming or put in the time and effort that could have been accounted for at the beginning.
This might be entirely off topic, but I'm having issues using RabbitMQ whereby durability suffers because messages are sent to remote hosts thus exposing them to both the network and remote host availability. On a previous platform I used an MSMQ based system which didn't have this problem since it uses a local store and forward service. So all sends are to localhost and are not affected by the network or the receiver availability. The MSMQ system was my first and only experience with messaging up to now, so I was surprised that any system would not work that way. How is this dealt with in other systems? Is it just a feature that exists or not and you just decide if it's important? And maybe just to shoe horn it to be on topic, does Pulsar use a local service?
Yeah of course, it's a trade-off, but I'd argue that it's not actually what people _want_. If given the choice between having the time to cook for themselves or eat fast food, would most people choose the fast food? I'd argue most people would choose to cook for themselves [1]. The problem is, people don't have the time for that type of thing, so they instead opt for the convenient choice.

Giving people less time to do things for themselves actually increases the GDP, because it means they are paying others to do things they would rather do themselves. Then someone gets to make a profit on that, so this type of thing is encouraged by our economic system.

Scammers can definitely be fast. My grandfather was scammed recently. He got a phone call claiming to be some sort of technical support for the retirement community he was living in. Eventually he figured out he was being scammed, hung up, and called me.

Unfortunately, because it had happened so quickly he didn't remember everything the scammer had asked him to do. So it took quite a bit of searching until we figured it out.
More specifically, non-critical thinkers.
The intent was probably to expose people to prejudices they don't usually experience with their cis/white/male/wealthy selves.

In which case one would have wanted to have those people roleplay as minority identities.

The writeup's phrasing is definitely weird, if accurate. Not sure why people of color would need to be exposed to what it's like to be treated as "brown people"?

Then again... given the logic behind most HR training, I'd be unsurprised if someone misunderstood diversity training guidelines and instead tried to put people in "their groups." facepalm

The fact that it cost $500,000 in real money because of this code is more than enough proof that it’s bad code. Plus it’s a small enough change that if it gets modified again, it will cause further money loss.
You mean because it would reduce demand for feed? I think that's right. As far as I can remember, China has to wait until ASF is completely eradicated before beginning to rebuild the herd so it's not like the lost demand from the diseased hogs is being replaced by the new herd. Also, piglets probably require less feed than the mature ones.
If they were charging for it, they would have called it "revenue-earning" instead of "revenue-ready".

What does "revenue-ready" even mean? They're willing to accept money for it? Really high bar to clear /s
