That would be perfectly fine in my view. I have no qualms about using living tissue. It's the unnecessary sacrifice of intelligent life that I find objectionable.
I've always wanted to.

I keep track of changes in my personality (Big 5) and political orientation (Political Compass and 8Values) every couple months, but I haven't been able to find any good (and free) neurocognitive assessment I can use to track cognitive performance.

As I understand, the problem of typical "intelligence" tests is that if they're done too frequently, it's easy to just get better at doing those particular tasks and getting higher scores, making them unsuitable for tracking your cognition in the long term.

I would love to see a FOSS webpage or tool that facilitated it, I believe there are lots of papers describing the exercises themselves, the problem is merely implementation.
It is almost irrelevant for existing users what has been added in Android version n + 1, because they will never get updated to n + 1. The joys of the Android vendor ecosystem. Even very expensive phones like Sony get about 1 (mid) or 2 (high-end) major upgrade only, and that's still not guaranteed. Project Treble did nothing to fix this.
To me this has always been a management issue. Usually the business willingly allows for this to happen. Consequence is that you build an extreme dependency on this person. Knowledge needs to be built into the organisation through hard work, like documentation, processes and collaboration.

You're probably expecting a bit much from CUDA. If you have heavily optimized CPU code running on a high-core count Xeon, it's probably more like 2-3x. The reason why CUDA is so popular is because it makes that comparatively easy to achieve. Optimizing x86 to the last 10% is a dark art only very few programmers are capable of, while writing decent GPU code is IMO an order of magnitude easier, i.e. just a craft.

Main difference being: High memory bandwidth vs. heavy usage of cache, unified programming model for vectorization and multicore parallelism

You had like 10 years of warning and it's "disrespectful"? I don't think there's a chance of productivity if you're starting from that baseline level of entitlement. Sure, mandates are annoying. But I just can't fathom that.

Tripurarahasyam (from wiki: The Tripura Rahasya (Devanagari: त्रिपुरा रहस्य, Tripurā Rahasya) meaning The Mystery beyond the Trinity, is an ancient literary work in Sanskrit believed to have been narrated by Dattatreya to Parashurama. It is an ancient prime text which is one of the treatises on Advaita school of classical Indian Metaphysics.)
I specifically want to know if you would still use the terms "cut up", "stitched pieces back together" and "Frankenstein". Not just whether it's fine.

Because those steps remain basically the same across both versions.
You can always be replaced.
I tend to agree.

To me, this is a good fit for some kind of 'fairly simple abstraction' - even the abstraction used is fine.

So long as everything worked, I think this might be a better solution.

I'm fine with 'don't just refactor because' but this looks like a fairly clean cut opportunity.

Social considerations aside.
Let me recommend to you "Peopleware: Productive Projects and Teams" by Tom DeMarco & Timothy Lister (go with the 3rd edition) and "The Mythical Man-Month" by Frederick P. Brooks Jr. (go with the anniversary edition). Both books expound the idea that most software projects fail not because lack of technology or innovation, but rather due to the mismanagement of people and a lack of understanding how teams work.
Suggestion: use a simpler synonym for idempotent on your high level pricing overview. Something like "automatically makes sure you aren't charged for duplicates"
You're not even obligated to open-source or contribute changes. You simply must offer source code to anyone you distribute your combined work to.

For instance, if you sold these cameras at Walmart you'd need to provide a URL to source code on the box, or a mailing address where someone can write you a request.

If your company just manufactures and installs these on its own campus, you haven't distributed them, and you needn't contribute your changes.
Finding Freedom
It seems like the sample size is too low/varied and data is too closed to have studies. And Stack Overflow 2012 and Stack Overflow 2020 are different communities, even though they are structured the same.

I think what matters more is the goal of the system.

SO has a downvoting penalty on answers but not questions, because asking questions is a privilege, but answers are rare. HN has a similar attitude with comments - be careful what you say as you will be judged for it and it can't be taken back.

The downside of cost-free downvoting is that it allows people to throw punches without any repercussions. Someone saying something unpopular will just get downvoted. If it were good, the upvotes would balance it out, but downvotes do hurt feelings and discourage people with a particular slant. I think HN and SO has attracted a certain niche of people and discouraged others.

On the other hand, without downvoting, you'll still get hostile comments, like you would on Tumblr or Daily Mail.

I'd say if you want to encourage downvoting as a form of decentralized moderation, then it should be without penalty.

But I'm not sure if you even need karma in the first place. In almost every system, quantity matters more than quality, and the kind of people who should be discouraged by downvotes aren't.
Not only do they carry guns, they are trained to automatically assume that everyone they encounter is out to kill them!

Imagine how paranoid and afraid that'd make you after a while!

Given that, it's not really surprising we have police officers killing someone who "pulled a gun" -- except that then they discover it was just a candy bar.

I've got a few friends who are police officers and I wouldn't want to do their jobs. Of course, my LEO friends are all older, smarter, and, due to experience I suppose, more "laid back".

Nowadays the first thing drilled into a new police officer's head is that "everyone wants to kill you".

I'm more worried because the mentality that lead to this doesn't seem to have changed whatsoever. The moment something is proven to be a dumb idea, people move on to the next best thing with the exactly same attitude of "We don't know it's bad, so let's just go with it"
“An act is wrong just when such acts are disallowed by some principle that is optimific, uniquely universally willable, and not reasonably rejectable.”
Depends on the niche, but a decade ago I remember talking to someone who worked on TopProducer, which is a Canadian-made business management software suite for RE agents.

It was an absolute junk by this dev's own assessment. Slow, bloated, buggy. Development was disorganized and perpetually behind the schedule. It was also really expensive, but it endured because the industry is really conservative (they like their crappy tools regardless) and the vendor lock-in is a major factor. Lots of hidden complexity too, including the nuances of business flow.

Don't know what niche you have in mind, but do talk to the target clients before making a decision. You may discover that they don't really see a problem where you see one, nor that they are excited to see it fixed and pay you for that privilege.
And it was much later than 1993 that unicode conclusively defeated latin-1. Something like 2010?

Volkswagen are doing exactly that. They have many BEVs models coming out this year across their multiple car brands (such as VW, Audi, SEAT, Skoda, Porsche).

The Porsche Taycan is the only 800 volt EV on the market today. The Volkswagen ID.3 has similar range to a Model 3 at a lower price point.

Even Audi's headlights are interesting. They're essentially projectors fast enough to run animations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2ara0My_Yg
I think I agree more with the parent than with you, particularly in engineering.

Lying in engineering means saying anything that's not true with any certainty. I wouldn't hold it against someone, but I would ask them to think carefully before speaking, to make sure what they said is true, as it can lead meetings to decide the wrong actions if nobody present happens to be able to contradict it.

Outside of engineering, all the same outcomes can occur, but proving the truth is much more difficult. And thus, while it may still technically be lying, it is impossible to tell and unfair to call someone on it.

If you have a system that caps personal wealth, you've just given more power to the people running the system. And if it's like any such system that's existed historically (e.g. communist Russia and China essentially capping personal wealth at zero), the people running the system will end up accumulating way more wealth than the cap (and way more power than in a system that didn't give the rulers such strong influence over people's lives).
Music isn't alone in triggering memory recall, all other senses do this as well. I'm not sure I'd assign music special powers in this context, although because it's time based music does seem to be a more profound effect.

The important thing is talk to your customers. The people using your tools aren't necessarily your customers. They may hate it, but the purchaser is in another department and doesn't care.

You say you're almost done, so I assume you have read the soldier's tale by now:

¿Qué es una herramienta de web scraping?
Web scraping puede entenderse fácilmente como una herramienta que lo ayuda a capturar y convertir rápidamente los datos no estructurados que ve en la web en formatos estructurados, como Excel, texto o CVS. Uno de los valores más reconocidos de una herramienta de web scraping es que realmente liberarla los trabajos tediosos de copiar y pegar que pueden tardar mucho tiempo en completarse. Este proceso puede automatizarse para que los datos que necesita se le entreguen en el formato requerido y según lo programado.

Hay muchas razones por las cuales las personas necesitan datos. Casi todos necesitan más o menos datos scraping.

¿Cuáles son algunas de las herramientas de web scraping más populares?

1. Octoparse
https://www.octoparse.es/ es una herramienta de web scraping fácil de usar desarrollad a para acomodar el web scraping complicado para los no codificadores. Es lo suficientemente potente como para manejar sitios web dinámicos e interactuar con cualquier sitio de varias maneras, como autenticación, ingreso de texto, selección de menús desplegables, desplazamiento sobre menús dinámicos, desplazamiento infinitivo. Octoparse ofrece extracción basada en la nube (función de pago), así como extracción local (gratuita). Para un scraping más preciso, Octoparse también tiene herramientas XPath and Regular Expression tools para ayudar a los usuarios a scrape con alta precisión.

2. Parsehub

Parsehub es otro software amigable no programador. Al ser una aplicación de escritorio, Parsehub es compatible con varios sistemas como Windows, Mac OS X y Linux. Al igual que Octoparse, Parsehub puede lidiar con los complicados escenarios de scraping web mencionados anteriormente. Sin embargo, aunque Parsehub tiene la intención de ofrecer una experiencia fácil de web scraping, por lo que puedo ver, un usuario típico aún necesitará ser un poco técnico para comprender completamente muchas de sus funcionalidades avanzadas.
> We live in a police state.

I don't think that's accurate, although I've previously said it myself before on social media.

I, do, think that too many citizens and lawmakers always assume police can do no wrong and are willing to give them whatever tools they ask for, no matter the cost to freedom. I think we have too many laws on the books, far too many for any person (even for a judge or attorney) to be able to read, let alone memorize, interpret, or internalize. I think the only thing that saves every last one of us from being convicted is a scarcity of police time, but technology is likely to change part of that (digital footprints on phones, GPS devices, WiFi / bluetooth devices, SaaS security systems like Ring, cars with dashcams) and the increasing changes to grade schools (campus police officers, "zero tolerance" policies) that increase the impact of normal childish outbursts.

I have lots of problems with police tools and tactics and I will continue to use my citizen voice and vote to trim those back, but I think that we aren't a police state right now.

> And this is how freedom dies.

If we live in a police state, then freedom is already dead.

It's not clear to me if police + legislatures are taking our freedoms faster than corporate land-grabs for my digital information and psychological profiling.
I would change "familiar with the organization" with "good with people". It's all about getting others to help you reach your goals.
I will make a guess for the causeses (that I stole from somebody smarter Tucker Carlson [1]), and if they sound plausible, also will offer solutions.

a) The reason for "... Instead we have witnessed a mass exodus of men from the workforce altogether. ..."

Is that man are looking for work that allows them to earn more than women, that would likely (or like) to date.

Women are not likely to marry/create family with man that earns (or has less earning potential) less than them.

Just as simple as that -- reasons may be deeply cultural, biological or whatever... but I believe this is to be true.

Solution:

De-urbanization/ De-metropolization of work opportunities.

Basically more gov tech, fin tech, bio tech, and other 'high-margin' business need to spread across a given country (UK, or US or whatever).

That spread will create a number of supporting job opportunities as well, that will equalize the earning potential opportunities, lower cost of living averages, create more 'geographically attractive cultural centers' and so on.

That (lowering cost of living, lowering barriers of entry into sustainable jobs, with less competition), in turn, will lower the barriers of entry into economic stability -- which is a requirement for a modern family core.

It is, actually, desirable, that one-person-income should be enough for a family of 4 (two parents and two children).
Whether parents choose that or both work, simulatenously, is up to them.

Stable family creates purpose and emotional stability, necessary for healthy work ethics.

---

With that said, 3 other important fed gov initiatives that will be needed

a) affordable, not necessarily free, but truly affordable health care

b) 4-day / 6 hour work week as a 'encouraged' standard.

c) equitable divorce model where man are treated using same criteria as woman (including for not just financial separation, but children custody as well).

I think it was android 9 that added the ability to do this. Swipe the notification > settings wheel > disable notifications for that app (or you can just disable specific types of notifications if there's still things you want to see).

It got easier again with android 10 with the options available directly from the notification itself (after a swipe).

I have friends who work in various construction fields, so I know it can be miserable and cold and dirty and hard on your body, and that people tend to romanticize outdoor jobs. Still, I've never been one to be bothered by cold or reasonable amounts of rain, as long as the appropriate clothing is available.
Agreed. It's not that music is somehow special in of itself, but rather I think it's a form we've constructed and implicitly optimized to trigger certain forms of recall.

A lot of early chamber music (and music from way back when in antiquity) was based on the idea of reproducing and augmenting voice, which very clearly carries emotional content. It's evolved and mutated since.

Put more simply: I think music is a medium humans have optimized over time to effectively trigger emotional and (less so) experiential recall.

In the process of doing so we've found that certain systems of harmony, tone, timbre, rhythm, etc are effective in emphasizing recall of certain emotional qualities.

I don't think anyone is born thinking the Beatles' Blackbird evokes a particular emotion, but to those who have lived in the world long enough there's a stunning commonality in what it affects in us.

Put even more simply: music is the "language" that best approximates common/shared emotional recall (though obviously there are regional and cultural variations).

Wang Mang ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wang_Mang ) capped personal wealth in the first century at a level much higher than zero. It was still a total disaster as far as history tells us, though in this case the official histories are overtly hostile to Wang Mang.
