while new I/O devices like augmented reality, wearables, or voice are natural extensions of the phone.

I don't agree with this at all. This is like saying "the internet is a natural extensions of the operating system, therefore Microsoft Windows will remain all powerful and the sole route to consumers"

Bill Gates in his famous memo realised that this wasn't the case, and Google realized that mobile did to the internet what the internet did to Windows (hence Android).

Wearables are radically different to phones. People want to use them differently, and interact with them in different way to how they do with phones.

To be clear: We are in the very early days of wearables, and Apple is far and away the dominant player (and maybe Garmin). But there is huge disruptive potential here.
I want to dive into creating a language / compiler finally but I might do it with the Writing an Interpreter / Compiler series in Golang. Just so I can dive in and try to digest it all. Course I always heard of the dragon book and have wanted it since.
The browser already has logic/settings controlling which cookies are accepted (first party, all, none). These settings have existed in most browsers for years. It's unfortunate that the cookie law didn't build on this in some way.
Surprised nobody picked the Atari 400/800 and Amiga 500 computers (which are the 8-bit and 16-bit spiritual parent/child machines by the same people).

On the other end, pure CPU only machines are kind of interesting as a study in economy, like the ZX Spectrum, a horrible, limited architecture that managed to hit the market at an unreasonably cheap price, make money, and end up with tens of thousands of games.
It doesn't and the fact you latched onto that statement makes me thing you don't actually understand it. You want to believe this is just over protective parenting, but you don't understand how the sprawl of modern development has made it impossible for kids to be kids. Take a look at this development[1] which was built in the 70's and is very idiomatic of how communities have been built post WWII. It is surrounded by highways, with no sidewalks, and its miles from any kind of playground or commercial center. You literally can't go anywhere without an adult taking you. Even today in area's that were once roamable by kids the increase in population growth in population without changing how we move people around means its no longer able to be navigated without being in a car. This isn't just kids either, even as an adult I am finding it hard to get around not being in a car.

You can get away with just mastering the same mix again, most likely. This would be especially true if you employ EBU R128 [0] and other such modern audio engineering practices. I've personally employed automated R128 dynamics matching for the past ten years, in order to output from one stereo PCM source file, a separate dynamically-matched master for each digital distributor's particular LUFS standard. i.e., YouTube's -13 dB LUFS, Tidal & Spotify's -14 dB LUFS, and iTunes' -16dB LUFS.

The US federal conviction rate is nearly as high. You achieve this by limiting discovery of evidence until the moment of trial. There is a greater exchange of information in a supermarket fall-down case than there is in any criminal case.
This is one of those "oh my gosh" technologies that you put in the lobby of your venture capital firm or hedge fund to just calibrate the level of money the client should be expected to have/invest.

That said, AFAICT microleds are the only technology that really lets you tile them. So you can build a 4K UHD display that is basically a bit smaller shorter than 8 feet (2.5 meters). But at 31 PPI it isn't great up up close. (not bad obviously but not stunning). Once it crosses 72 PPI that is when the world gets really interesting. For me.

> How exactly would this particular trade-off increase total deaths?

People die riding bicycles, too. They die in mass transit accidents. As mentioned earlier, they die because they can't get to the hospital in time. They die because the economy does worse because fewer people shop.

It's really hard to tease a simple answer out of an extremely complex, interconnected system.

I'm reminded of the argument for the 55 mph speed limit in America, that it "obviously" saved lives. Turned out, it did not. Freeway travel was significantly safer than city street travel, and reducing freeway speeds pushed more traffic onto the city streets, resulting in a higher death rate.
Originally I had something about it possibly being useful for that in my post, but I'm only loosely familiar with ITBs through the E46 BMW community so I wasn't sure enough. I think those ones use a single shaft straight through so they don't need synchronization.
It either works, or throws an error and does not.

It controls your throttle and steering so it appears there may be other errors that could occur.
To some extent that’s just a function of the brute-force search space: due to the birthday paradox a 128-bit hash like MD5 only requires testing around 2^64 hashes to find a collision. However, to find a preimage you would need to search through 2^128 possible messages.

Attacks generally improve on brute force by factors; for example, MD5 collision finding is some 2^40 times more efficient than 2^64 brute force, but being 2^40 times more efficient than 2^128 brute force for preimage finding is still well outside of anyone’s capabilities.

MD5 also appears to be unusually preimage-resistant; the best attack requires something like 2^123 operations which is really infeasible.
Considering the people they're explicitly looking for, according to that page:

> People who have done well at math competitions (USAMO, IMO, PUTNAM), competition programming (ACM, USACO, codejam, topcoder), science fairs (ISEF, STS), or capture the flag (DEFCON, secuinside, GITS). Those competitions don't just select for ability, they also select for quickness. We are in a very competitive space.

...it's absurdly low. Companies like Google hand out close to $200k total, liquid compensation to new grads who haven't placed in any of those competitions. The people who have ranked in any of those (especially the math ones, and doubly so the Putnam) can easily write their ticket to a job paying double $130k right out of college.

Anyone with that kind of competitive math/programming experience and real world machine learning engineering experience could earn triple that range if they wanted to. That's a ridiculously small and competitive set of candidates to be targeting. It's also not necessary, because strong performance on the e.g. IMO doesn't a priori map to outperformance, on a per dollar basis, writing autonomous driving logic.

Basically: no it's not competitive for San Diego, Comma is asking for wildly overqualified people to sacrifice significant amounts of money to work there, and it's not clear they should be using those kinds of qualifications as a filtering criteria in the first place.

This kind of cargo culting does not inspire confidence in their recruiting.
They probably need to finally upgrade those windows machines :p
But what you don't see in that 0.01% statistic is we have already acclimated to a world where kids are fortified against being hit by cars ( and it still happens ). The days of walking to school, the local playground, or a corner store are very much in the past and one of the major reasons is because we have built a car centric world where you can't walk or ride.

You can't teach kids to be independent if you have made it so they can't be independent which is exactly what car culture has done to kids. Kids can't be independent until they reach driving age, because any other independence is far too dangerous.
Thanks! First time I hear of gonic too. Why use it instead of Airsonic?
To be fair, none of those 180 people, if they had lived, would have cared if I died.

150,000 people die each day, of whom 50,000 die of causes not labelled as “age related causes”. If I died in a non-newsworthy way, nobody outside my own corner of global society would know about it; the fact that some random individuals you don’t know happen to have died in a slightly more newsworthy way today probably shouldn’t change how you feel about them, versus the other 50,000 or so premature deaths for the day.
But how does it support live TV?
First:

One package can attack by declaring a malicious executable (bin) with the same name as one from a package that you would intentionally use.

Second:

If the malicious package is installed globally, it is injected into your regular PATH, and can similarly "hijack" regular commands.

-

At first I read tfa and said "and? Thats what I expect it to do". Then I noted:

* for a given package installation, a dependencies dependencies bins are available. This is generally counter intuitive.

* conflicting bin entries do not generate warnings or errors.

On a personal note:
- I dont install node modules globally. Wrt development it should stay in repo, and I'm not a fan of managing system utilities from anywhere other than my distros package manager.. largely because its a PITA (I'm looking at you Python).
- I cant think of any reason why non top level dependencies should have their bin files exposed. That is madness.
- if it was just top level files, this would be a meh - I should get a conflict warning but I (or my cocontributors) deliberately installed those packages, so im not too bothered there.

Exactly, yes. In mathematics we are also discoverers rather than inventors. I am just making the point that personality does play a role. Think of Newton's calculus vs. Leibniz's calculus.

Yes they did.
It's interesting to think about all this. Everything DNA encodes is responses to the environment.

On the molecular level, proteins are only functional at certain temperatures, pressures, and pH levels.

On the cell level, certain proteins might only be found in specific areas, and essential amino acids might be harvested from the environment rather than produced by the cell itself.

On the organism level, we are predisposed to shiver if it's too cold or sweat if it's too hot, an uncomfortable feeling, so innately we go to where the climate is milder and won't kill us. We clothe ourselves and that range is expanded, suddenly there is a selective advantage for being able to clothe yourself, just like there is to be a white beetle on a white sand beach instead of a green one visible to predators, or a cell that's able to just mooch someone elses amino acids rather than expend energy making their own.
The idea is that the eulogy talks about how you lived your life and what kind of person you were. The way Brooks is using it is just as a tool to grant some perspective; the eulogy in a literal sense is a convenient proxy for something deeper: consider how it would feel if the only honest nice things people could say about you at your funeral were that you were ambitious and successful. Most people would be strongly displeased by that—and yet it's all too easy for the same people to fall into a trap of living their lives in such a way that the values of ambition and success take precedence over everything else.

Would you recommend Bernina sewing machines? I've been doing some leather work and am considering to make machine stiched items too.

PS: WRT John Deere, our family business bought quite a few of them and when they refused to train our own workshop employees we sold all of them! The whole thing kind of amused me. Unless you are from the Free State, Massey Ferguson is pretty much your best option. And if you need something with more ploughing power, Landini is doing pretty well too. Actually, I think Italy is in a unique position at the moment to (if they actually wanted to) to grow quite a bit economically with some of their brands.
Not as much as Id like. But that generally comes down to prioritization and the broad autonomy & area of responsibility in these roles. The self reported survey data of time spent is that principals are doing direct delivery 12% of the time median and 20% average.

That said there does seem to be a push to reemphasize the ‘exemplary practitioner’ aspect and scale back on the high level “architecture” and pseudo PM aspects that creep in with expanded scope.
The big difference with these industries is that they are global. When the Austin office becomes uneconomical, it gets wound down and the Montreal office ramped up, or Warsaw, or Manila, or Brisbane, or... so many to choose from in many cases. The only power workers have over their employers is to stop work. Picket lines exist to increase the cost of bringing in new workers. But you are powerless if the employer is in a position to move the work elsewhere on the planet, especially if it is a net cost saving that will earn the executives a fat bonus.
Emulating narrower using larger floating-point arithmetic can be dodgy, since you open yourself up to double rounding scenarios. For the IEEE 754 types (half, single, double, and quad), it is the case that the primitive operations (+, -, *, /, sqrt) are all correctly rounded if you emulated it by converting to the next size up, doing the math, and converting it down. For non-IEEE 754 types (such as bfloat16, or the x87 80-bit type), this is not the case, so double rounding is a possible concern.

One thing that I think is missed: AirPods are an almost have to have addition to the Apple Watch. Without an iPhone, an Apple Watch with a data plan is pretty good for text messaging (I am traveling and tonight during dinner with my Dad and brother, the woman back home who takes care of my parrot texted me and included four pictures - the pictures were easy to view on my Apple Watch), phone calls, and reading emails. You can also use Apple Wallet on the watch for airline check in images, store discount cards, etc.

With AirPods, an Apple Watch Is good for Audible books, podcasts, and music.

I used to think that it was cool to just take an iPhone on a trip and be connected. Now, an Apple Watch with AirPods can suffice. For travel the only thing missing from the Apple Watch is not being able to read eBooks which is why AirPods and Audible fill an important use case.

Which is not to say they will move to ARM. I am still skeptical of it.
No applied logic is useful, but you need computers because the proof is big. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automath gets started just around the time he dies, so Russel still made the right call, but lets not sacrifice a good idea "cause Gödel" for all eternity to prop him back up.
According to https://www2.census.gov/geo/pdfs/reference/GARM/Ch12GARM.pdf density is also included in the definition. Skimming it seems like generally a place with 1000 people or more per square mile qualifies as "urban". That's still awfully low population density but it does clarify that not all towns over 2500 people are automatically defined as "urban". Similarly it is possible to have a population over 50,000 and not be "urban".

Is your town on this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_urban_ar...?

But none of that says anything about public transit.

According to https://www.ptua.org.au/myths/density/ public transit becomes viable at around 13.5 people per hectare which by my back of the envelope math works out to about 3400 people per square mile.

Taking that back to the Wikipedia article there are 75,000,000 people living in areas with enough density to support public transit. It is worth noting that cities with current, working public transit systems (like Seattle, WA and Boston, MA) do not meet the 3,400 people per square mile requirement. If we add up all the peopple living in urban areas with density equal to or greater than Boston we get 148,744,607. If we add up everyone living in Charlotte, NC (which has a public transit system) or denser we get 196,307,807 people!

This is all obviously a massive oversimplification and we can argue in circles forever. The point is that by the US Census Bureau definition most Americans live in "Urban" areas (for a fairly clear definition of "Urban" and "in") and that we can probably support a lot more public transit.
> "The right" is defined

By you, perhaps. Not by me. But I understand what you're referring to; I just don't agree with using the word "right" to refer to it.
I know there are a lot of ML researchers and practitioners here - and I have unfortunately only a very shallow experience with reading ML papers, more so with the recent output.

But, I have to ask, how do you get a feel that the content actually looks correct, and not just only quack? The improvements are usually in the 1% range, from old models to new models, and the models are complex. More often than not also lacking code, implementation / experiment procedures, etc.

Basically, I have no idea if the paper is reproducible, if the results are cherry picked from hundreds / thousands of runs, if the paper is just cleverly disguised BS with pumped up numbers to get grants, and so on.

As it is right now, I can only rely on expert assurance from those that peer review these papers - but even then, in the back of my mind, I'm wondering if they've had time to rigorously review a paper. The output of ML / AI papers these days is staggering, and the systems are so complex that I'd be impressed if some single post. doc or researcher would have time to reproduce results.

Also, everything you do carries some risk of death. But you decide that the benefit is worth the particular risk of death. Demanding that the risk be zeroed out comes with it a reduction in one's standard of living.

For example, every time I get on an airplane I risk death. I know it. But I go anyway, because (say, visiting family, having a nice vacation, closing a business deal) is worth it.
Nice. However, a part of my problem with jq is that changing data structure also gets awkward pretty quick. So I hoped to hijack some small Lisp that's still likely to have a suite of functional tools―`map` and such. This would also rely on the fact that I can represent JSON's maps and arrays in most such Lisps. Afaict jql doesn't have that.

So far I'm planning to just fire up Hy the next time I need anything in this vein. Since it's on Python, both JSON parsing/encoding and functional stuff should be there out of the box. Alternatively, I still can try using ClojureScript with Lumo. But I don't expect too fast startup with either of them, compared to, say, Fennel/Lua.

BTW, there's a Lisp that translates to Go: https://github.com/jcla1/gisp. Though not too popular, and I've heard an opinion that it's toy-like in its capabilities.

That's Comma AI's approach. Their hardware spoofs the stock computer so it can send commands to the car's active safety systems. So there are some stock limitations, like the steering torque, that openpilot doesn't bypass.
