Yeah, I'm not sure I buy this story. Someone with enough experience to build a drone would be unlikely to go bother an airport for no benefit, and some idiot buying a random DJI drone wouldn't be able to get near the airport as DJI drones refuse to fly within a few km of an airstrip.
I noticed that cost is in aud. Necessity is truly a mother of invention. Very nice
In my experience, you can go to any random hotel bell desk and check your bag for the day for 1-2 units of the local currency. (You don't need to prove that you are checking in or out.)

I don't see paying bounce $6 and farfing around on a website for something that's so simple and quick to do in person and if there's a problem of any sort, I can readily sort it out on the spot instead of over some support-via-email system. (When bounce offers a non-hotel answer in a spot with no hotels nearby, I can see the value, but that seems like a corner case.)

Of course, I also didn't see people being willing to pay $10 to have unpredictably slow delivery of cold food from the likes of Doordash, either, so...

It is amusing and sad to me that person is going to "spend thousands more to get a Ring system"

So you have already been burned by 1 cloud service, so you want to get burned again? As there is nothing to day Amazon will not shutdown the Ring service at some point

Self Host or nothing for me
Yes, that's the most famous application. As to why it worked...that's the more interesting story IMHO.
I would imagine the simulators will be updated to better reflect the conditions that trigger the error on actual hardware, but it's hard to build and iterate a perfect simulation of complicated stacks like a modern jetliner.
Linux doesn't expect you to either. You are free to choose.
Thank you for this comment. I currently cannot use my AirPods Pro in Noise Cancelling mode because of this stuffed ears thing, which immediately gave me nausea when I turned it on without anything playing. Now I'm looking forward to this update, although seems like Apple has since pulled it.
Neither echo -e nor nc are POSIX.
I don't think there is a strictly POSIX one-liner.
Zigbee interoperability isn't what you might think it is. Think of it like a layer 1-4 interop, while layer 7 (application layer) can, and in many cases is, up to the device vendor. That means Zigbee radios in your house can use each other for mesh networking, but may not actually be able to talk to each other in any meaningful way. ZLL and then ZHA are intended to address this, but aren't always widely adopted by device vendors for a bunch of reasons, one of which might be the "walled garden" you mention.

Solutions like Z-Wave also have a tightly-defined application layer which allows nearly all devices to have some level of meaningful interaction with each other. For example, a Z-Wave motion sensor from Vendor A can turn on a Z-Wave light from Vendor B in response to motion. This was largely possible due to all Z-Wave radios being made by one organization. There are now promises of opening the stack a bit so partners can also develop radios, and it remains to be seen what impact this will have on the interoperability of Z-Wave devices in the future.

I didn't like that talk at all. I disagree with almost everything he says[1].

This talk is much better but some of his criticism are rather pointless because what he wants is a complete new OS design vastly different from UNIX. If he likes Windows/MacOS so much he should just use that.

Bleath Gill: Whatever Happened to the Heroes? (2011)
Does ADS-B report AGL, MSL, or pressure altitude? I thought it was the latter (like the transponder), but I might well be wrong.
Is it me or is every single issue reported as something exceptional causing boeing to look like the biggest amateurs in the world. What will be next? Boeing migrated all the vital control systems to nodejs. Infiltrated npm packages caused unknown issues. Further delay required.
Fossil has everything built in including fully functioning web interface (in contrast to git).
Not really, it's one of the most common mistakes I see in bayesian calculations. If the author was basing a lengthy series of calculations on that first step, it would be worse (but in this case the expression is quickly replaced by a corrected version for the classification discussion).
Snowdrift at Bleath Gill is a British industrial documentary. It's just under 10 minutes long.

Microsoft warns about Internet Explorer zero-day, but no patch yet
Will people even want to board these planes after it became clear how Boeing handled (botched) the development of this plane and how FAA insisted on keeping these planes up in the air (while stating they were perfectly safe as any other) until they absolutely couldn't (i.e. until other countries grounded it)?

I wonder what the game plan is for getting these planes back in the air for carrying passengers. A small vocal minority will make a big stink about it and it will get amplified. Regular folk that don't know or care will join and it will become a huge shitfest when the day comes.
How can it be "completely fair" when you're not comparing the same thing? Linux applications can and should use higher-level libraries too.
The other bit is that when they say that some language is not a good fit for current processors, that also applies to x86_64 Assembly, that provides no way to control certain ways the processor works, like pipelining, that would be pretty interesting for a compiler to have access to.

No, you do have the right to be angry, even for something you’re not paying for. Absence of a financial agreement does not mean dissolution of basic community norms.
Critical and technical literature needs to be held to a standard.

When the rhetor introduces errors in the artifact, the rhetor's ethos with the audience is diminished.

The more fundamental the error (getting a basic equation wrong I guess?) the more trust you lose with a knowledgeable audience. If the author doesn't see that a fundamental issue was introduced, they may not have been expert enough to not introduce additional errors; the reader must spend more time double-checking the components of the argument rather than thinking about the argument itself.

If someone comes to this article as a novice in the topic and stores the error as a fact, they may end up at least confused when approaching it again in the future. HN tends to have an audience representing deep knowledge in many fields, who end up providing a thorough and varied set of quality filters. These quality filters are also really helpful to the novice who may otherwise miss the typo.

The critique is about the importance of priors in BNN. In my humble understanding of Bayesian reasoning the argument to defend any prior is that with enought data the learning method converges to the real distribution, so if the result of any learning method depends heavily of any prior assumption then that assumption is crucial and in no way can it be taken randomly. On the other hand, it is well known that deep learning can learn any random model, so in the end I think all of this is about the bias-variance trade off. If your prior has an infinite number of adjustable parameters (zero bias) then the variance becomes infinite ( your result will depend and becomes equal to the training set).

So in practice one should choose the prior with the minimum number of parameters (bias) that shows a good learning performance on the available training set.

Anyway, trying to measure how a prior generalizes or not in BNN seems to be another way of thinking about bias-variance, if there is more than this, I would like to know.
AFAICT existentialism is nihilism plus a bunch of pretentious gibberish, so if I was going that route, I'd rather stop at nihilism.

Academic Publishing in a Nutshell
To be fair, if you took it back to the car dealer, the only repair they're likely to offer is a factory engine swap. They're not going to do an engine rebuild in the service bay.

Taking it to an independent or DIY, you could rebuild the engine (analogous to what you did on your printer).

I worked at Staples in university when the EcoTank printers first started coming to market. There was an Epson rep that came in and offered to print anything for anyone using the top-of-the-line model, as a demonstration of the quality and longevity of the ink and tanks, as well as promoting the cost benefits over even a cheap laser printer.

Needless to say, most of us employees (who were students at the same university) had everything printed. Textbooks, assignments, posters. Thousands upon thousands of pages got printed on those Saturdays, some days you'd swear it just went continuously from the minute we opened to well after we closed. With my family having owned nothing but lasers, I was incredibly impressed by it. Being able to refill the tanks while the printer was going was just incredible, leading to zero downtime or the suffering quality you start to see when cartridges run low.

For the low volume of printing I personally do, I'll stick to laser, but for those who do a lot of colour printing and want the high-quality inkjet offers, I'd go as far to say there's no competiton.
It seems to me that Apple’s software is steadily regressing. One of my favourite apps is iBooks, but I cannot use it as it reloads for a good 10-15 minutes at times, or refreshes the screen here or four times unnecessarily. I am going to move to Kindle because of it.
"Is it related to the blank screen problem that was discussed a few days ago?"

That's a "NG" specific issue, and not applicable to the MAX.

Beaver families are not charged rent, money for food, etc.

Just because housework isn't recognized, doesn't mean it doesn't add value to our society. But it's not priced, and it's not taxed.

At any rate - the interesting part is, if we say there's something like five hours of work every day to run a home - how come men seem fine with dropping that in favour of paid work, and women not?

There's a limited few months of giving birth to a child that only women can do, but we see that disproportionately women seem to end up doing much more. Sure, we can simply reduce the amount of unpaid work, by paying people to clean, cook and watch children - but that doesn't answer why not doing so affects women disproportionately from men.

One plausible explanationis sexism; that our society isn't equal.
I think your quoted comment just proves the point. Without community complaint / critical response, there isn’t incentive for the implementer to do the thing the community needs.

If you do X for enjoyment and it actively hinders some other group because they needed Y and using personal priorities to rank addressing X instead of Y is an egregious violation of community norms, people will take action to bring down the enjoyability of doing X and raise the enjoyability of doing Y, like complaining about X and thanking you for Y.
MuZero is in some sense the proto-holy grail, in that it implements learning and planning into unstructured tasks over purely internal models. While there is an obvious chasm between it and the end point, this is still something that has only recently become more than an abstract goal, at least to any effect.

Being able to perform planning over ‘simple’ domains like Atari games and Go (and not even in the same trained model!) might not seem very comparable to the real thing, but evolutionary history spent the bulk of its time building up the basics—most animals fail most cognitive tasks—so I don't think this is indicative of the progress being misguided, especially given networks-on-GPUs is literally a 10 year old field.

I think MuZero is a clear example of building by principles over random flailing. I get why there does also seem to be the latter, but it's certainly not the whole of it, and anyhow it worked for evolution ;P.
If Clearview profits from having your photo in their database, don’t you deserve compensation?
We use an old-school BBS-style bug tracker. Each project has its own page on the tracker, in which longer-form discussion can be had. Slack replies are not ideal, they get swamped easily.
I just print my stuff at the office - bunch of massive enterprise printers there.

Home printers don't make sense to me on cost, time & scale.

Then again not all employers are cool with incidental personal use.
It's also because those cities were complete dumpster fires a decade ago. Ever walked in downtown Atlanta? Every other street is a row of abandoned delapidated houses. It's easy to get local government to build new homes when half hour cityscape is homes that are falling apart. The bay area suffers from having 2/3 of their growing direction be water. It's not as simple as you make it out to be.
Why? That’s the most likely type of reward you would get from a successful open-source contribution, and should be factored in to consideration of what is a priority.
Last year I took a software certificate, my last employer demanded it. The experience was miserable. It was memorizing trivia and in the end, you are watched by some pervert though the laptop camera.
In a system like this the software organization should be super-confident that no matter what failures occur they will handle them gracefully. They should be this confident before even entering the sim.

Getting there is hard and you should be using both models you can prove correct and hands-on "vulnerability" testing. And to make it feasible you should keep your "stack" as simple as possible.

To me your comment reads like developing a system like this in a trial-and-error way until you get a pass from the sim would be OK. It is most definitely not OK.
Interesting. Most of what I've seen is either wifi based or zigbee/zwave style. Isn't IR inconvenient due to line of sight?
Without customer protection laws you're left to the whims of your vendor. Trusting the promises in the sales brochure (or even taking the sales pitch as a promise) is either courageous or naive.
Not addiction, but "Problematic Internet Usage (PIU)" as defined in another cited paper. But I agree, title should start with "Problematic"
What a silly report. Looking at the top two key takeaways:

>Global demand for blockchain engineers is up 517%

Was, you meant to say. It's dropping steeply. Also, 517% compared too what? Previously, barely anyone hiring, and now 5 in 10,000 positions mentioning blockchain?

>Search engineers in San Francisco are paid the most, earning $157K on average

WHAT? Search engineers? What is “search engineers”? And $157K in SF being the most? This is false. You probably meant to say "senior engineers in San Francisco are earning the most". I only know engineers in San Francisco earning (in base, not counting stock or bonus) above $157K. My sample size is small, but 20/20.

Compare this with the Levels.FYI report: Highest Paying Tech Companies of 2019[1]. You see how the top tech companies are paying over $200K for entry level engineers in SF, well above $400K for senior levels.

Who writes this report? Or does this reflect how e.g. some of the top roles - FAANG and other tech companies - steer clear from places like Hired.com?

I'm not okay with this - and you shouldn't be either. It's only a matter of time before it gets and misused/abused - to identify protestors, for law enforcement officers' personal uses, to identify those doing legal things deemed "immoral" (see: China), etc.

We really need regulation here. Urgently.

The US appears to have been the leader in such regulation in the past. The problem is, they don't do that anymore. They haven't passed any laws related to user rights or privacy in a long time, and are actively trying to make encryption illegal.

The same is true for the Australian government, and those of several developing nations. We can hope that the EU does something, but... the impact will be limited.

It's especially bad for people living in non-first-world countries like India where the citizens aren't educated on the consequences of law enforcement agencies using tech like this. Laws taking away the right to privacy are being pushed through regularly. Recently they've started using facial recognition to identify protestors: https://www.fastcompany.com/90448241/indian-police-are-using...

I really wish that some leading tech companies would try and push regulation through, but that will never happen since apparently privacy erosion and constant user tracking is critical for revenue for seemingly all of them (except Apple, I suppose).

Also, even if somehow regulations were put in place that made it necessary for websites to try and protect user data and made it illegal to scrape PII, there's nothing stopping government agencies from developing tools like these for themselves. Aaaand we go back to the first paragraph of this comment. This is a sad state of affairs.
I could make a 2 meter wingspan drone (plane) for under 1000 dollars. That drone will have a range of about 200km. An avarage airspeed of 100km/u and payload capacity of 5kg. It flies autonomously using GPS. It still can (to a lesser degree) without by using barometer and compass. You can use special equipment to spoof or disrupt GPS signals. But no way that will work on long distances.
My point is. If you want to fly over an airport and drop a bag of eggs it's perfectly possible. Even with all the counter measures taken at such places.
> Gentrification is the downside of densification.

You’re smoking some strong stuff if you think densifications causes gentrification. Reality has always been gentrification leads to investment leads to densification.
The nuance is that Ben Franklin was warning against the temporary safety of personal liberty versus the freedom provided by a more robust Federal security apparatus (specifically against native Americans.) He wasn't warning that trust in government is an act of cowardice or fool's errand, rather that government is often necessary as a force multiplier to safeguard individual liberties against an opposing force multiplier.
I think of it as WiFi Alliance. You would expect several WiFi devices connect to the same AP, but you probably wouldn't expect a random widget from company A to interoperate with random widget from company B.
You could make a similar argument about pollution. A certain amount of it is necessary, it’s not possible to have a society, especially a developed one, that doesn’t pollute at all. So where do you draw the line?

It’s arbitrary, and yet saying that means we should just let people pollute endlessly doesn’t make sense either.
>"These results suggest that students with high levels of internet addiction may be particularly at risk from lower motivations to study, and, hence, lower actual academic performance."

Too bad that they didn't collect grades and test results and measure actual academic performance.
> While the company was dodging me, it was also monitoring me. At my request, a number of police officers had run my photo through the Clearview app. They soon received phone calls from company representatives asking if they were talking to the media — a sign that Clearview has the ability and, in this case, the appetite to monitor whom law enforcement is searching for.

Like in the movies.
Isn't the underlying issue often one of accounting? As I understand it, prices cannot drop because the appraisal is tied to the rent, and the financing is tied to the appraisal, and the overall business is dependant on the financing.

As strange as it is, this makes it "cheaper" overall for some properties to remain empty rather than trying to get any, albeit reduced, rent.
Boarded a plane last night. Looked like a 737. Breathed a sigh of relief when I saw it was an Embraer.
This is very much just an edgy teenaged atheist way of looking at things. It’s like saying “I like to go around telling everybody about the munchausen trilemma to piss of scientists”. Honestly your mischaracterisation of the complexity of the natural world is the most frustrating part of your comment.
I thought Bagbnb - https://bagbnb.com/ - did the same thing. Are you aware of them and what differentiates you from them?

Good luck with everything.
Curious: what tech stack did you land on? I haven't implemented much "smart" tech yet, but would be nice to know if there are some good open options out there.
you can change your settings to old reddit. i never use new reddit or any mobile app. I also think of HN as a better moderated subreddit. Popular subreddits are of course horrible - there is non point going there. But there are well-moderated smaller communities depending on your interests.

Twitter is a different kind of bubble, it has much more varied opinions and you can find likeminded people no matter how particular.

Instead of echo chambers, you can think of them as incubators. Ideas need a supportive, nurturing environment to grow, they die in the wild. So small echo chambers are actually beneficial to the growth of new trends.

I don't know, i m learning things through twitter / reddit / hn so i dont think they 're just huge time wasters, i can think of a lot worse things to do like TV or facebook/instagram.
Please, don't tell HP Inc employees that they are going to pass through another split.
