Doesn’t Tesla understand that this behavior diminishes the value of their current customers’ cars. If I currently own a Tesla and want to sell it, who would want to buy it knowing that Tesla could remove features anytime. They have just decimated the value of their cars. The market will correct their behavior.
RxJS is very cool and well designed, and stands on its own. Worth learning about even if you don't use Angular, but definitely if you do! The basics are easy to understand, but there are a whole lot of deep profound operators that it will take a long time to master, although you don't need them all at first.

https://rxjs-dev.firebaseapp.com/api

Reading the guide and pondering the following table helped me understand how other mechanisms in JavaScript work together and relate to each other, and the corner that Observable occupies:

https://rxjs-dev.firebaseapp.com/guide/observable

>Observables are lazy Push collections of multiple values. They fill the missing spot in the following table:

SINGLE MULTIPLE
Pull: Function Iterator
Push: Promise Observable
Turns out, if you give people a sane API, they actually want to use it! And this is the first relatively sane way on Linux/BSD to do asynchronous IO. :)

(I say "relatively sane" because this isn't really asynchronous, it's just make-believe with a kernel-managed thread pool, because I/O being a fully synchronous affair is ingrained far too deep into both Linux and BSD I/O stacks.)
And I'm pretty sure Tesla will have lawyers who will pull their general sales conditions saying that the $8k self-driving option is a nominative, non-transferable software license and will likely win in court.
> My understanding is that each android phone model is unique

Sure, but each PC is also 'unique' in that sense, in fact I'd happily bet that there are more different kinds of hardware combinations for PCs than there are android phone models. And yet, that never was a problem.

But how much of the enmity is simply due to the US's support of Israel? Am I the most loyal friend of a bully because his victims are my enemies, or his victims hate me because I am his most loyal friend?
This has improved so much since the last time I checked it.

It's interesting to see so high quality on image generation using neural networks, while text generation using gpt2, which seems a lot easier at first, is glorified nonsense.
Is it just me or Passion Economy is a totally empty marketing BS term that doesn't really mean anything?
I use Scala everyday (in spark) and generally prefer it over java but I agree that the surface area is too large. This is really evident when you start to import someone else’s libraries. The breadth of the language affords many different paths for the library writer depending On how much of a language sniper they are.
File size matters for networks, not compression. Compressors have an interface where you specify desired file size and the program tries to produce a file of that size. With better compression algorithm the image will be just of a better quality, time to download and cost per GB will be the same.
> a legal battle with a phone manufacturer will cost much more than the phone itself

You'd only need to do it once to set a precedent, and everyone can get their phones fixed or replaced. The problem is that the law applies to the retailer, not to the manufacturer. As I didn't buy my phone direct, I'd have to get the retailer to replace it, and as I went to a high street retailer who is suffering from competition from Amazon etc, and closing branches, it feels bad to give the problem to them.

If I'd bought the phone from the manufacturer direct, from Amazon, or from a phone network, I'd gladly go ahead with the action because those retailers would have enough clout that the manufacturer would care about loosing their business.
The problem with the "passion economy", which was alluded to in another comment, is that it strengthens the already too-prevalent assumption that everything can and should be monetizable. Markets are useful but they don't need to be involved in every aspect of existence.

Sure, you don’t need to participate in Patreon to make stuff, but the trend seems to be toward relying on consumer market forces to fund culture. Tying the livelihoods of creators to the approval of their fans will lead them to censor themselves and consequently you aren't going to get anything that really pisses people off or challenges them in a countercultural way, at least enough to stop buying your stuff.

The idea of basic income seems like a better path forward, in terms of preserving artistic integrity (i.e. not "make money" or "please your fans" as the motive for making things). Everyone will get enough money to survive, no matter how much your ideas go against the zeitgeist.

A "single buffer, but with different offsets for each open call" is identical to "allocate one buffer per socket" (you "allocated" the per-socket buffer by subdividing a larger allocation). And even if you don't "have so much buffer space allocated that it becomes problematic", it's still a waste of memory.

That said, lossless codecs have it easier because you can freely transcode between them as the mood takes you, with no generation loss, so there's less lock-in. For example, FLAC is dominant in audio, but there are a variety of other smaller lossless formats which still see use. Nobody much minds.

Jelly1's comment adds even less. If your observation about correlations is true, can we assume that Belgium and Albania have even higher ratios of employees that work from home?

Belgium = 6.6%. Given that Belgium and the Netherlands are neighbors, with a majority Flemish population, this means simple size isn't the primary factor. (Albania isn't even listed.)

Switzerland is only slightly larger than the European part of the Netherlands, and yet it has a rate of 4.1%.

Population density might be a factor, but simple density isn't enough, as Finland's rate is 13.3% while the US has a density about twice that of Finland.

Since size isn't a clear factor, and density isn't a clear factor, I could not makes sense of Jelly1's comment. It did not come across as an informed jab but a factually incorrect statement, which I tried to highlight, without a verbose analysis like this one.

I don't see that recommendation in the article. Rather it's specific to the SM7B which is famously pretty quiet.

Smoking in general is not exactly helpful with pulmonary diseases.

In a case like this where the virus causes viral pneumonia, shortness of breath, etc, basically all the various diseases you're predisposed to if smoking, so that shortness of breath becomes a lot worse, and the little hairs in your airways have been molested by smoking, so there's not much debris/mucus transport happening out of the lungs. Viral pneumonia will most likely be joined by a bacterial pneumonia when you fail to ventilate your lungs properly.

People worry about Corona virus killing 2-5%, and yet smoking kills about 50%, with an individual risk of dying at about 300% of a non smoker.

It's effectively cherry-picking data.

If you want to encourage something as public policy (like working from home, recycling, public transit, etc), it's a lot easier to deploy a new program at a 'city level' where everyone more or less lives and travels in similar way than than at a US Federal level where you are dealing with over 300 million people who live in all kinds of geography and all kinds of different situations. The US covers everything from highly urban areas to vast, unpopulated deserts and mountains.

The Netherlands is about the size (population wise) of a large city like Shanghai and it's fairly consistent in geography and urbanization throughout the entire country. That's just much easier situation to influence than a vast country like the US. It's a much simpler problem.

It would be more fair to compare the US with all of Europe, including Spain, Greece, Croatia, etc. What percent of people are working from home in Croatia? And how does that compare to a Netherlands-sized cherry picked area in the US, like the New York City metro area? See how that's an unfair comparison?

According to the article, the US vs. the entire EU rates are not too far off.

Agreed. "Unscalable" code is completely possible to write in Angular or React. Simply put, it's bad code that doesn't follow the paradigms of the framework it lives in, with all of the usual suspects (spaghetti code) sprinkled in.

Curiuos how this changes for you if say you're carrying 2 pieces of large luggage.
Well, in all logic one should expect larger, less densely populated countries, to have a higher percentage of employees working from home.

The population density and the size of the Netherlands (ignoring the fact that it is not the smallest country of Europe in any kind of sense) is not an obvious factor for making more people work from home, since it should make it easier for people to commute to work.

The awful traffic and saturated road network though might play a role in this.

> Supplies and doctors still came in after lock down.
You mean the government get doctors from other cities to Wuhan because they are not needed, regardless if Wuhan is in medical shortage? This is a weird logic that I cannot agree.
IMO, mobilizing doctors from hundreds of miles away, which costs a lot money and management effort, is exactly an attempt to solve the shortage issue. There are various video materials showing super crowded hospitals in Wuhan and other Hubei cities. It is also consistent with building not one, but two temporary hospitals with thousands of workers at much pricier cost.

Based on the activity data from TV news, fever related medical visit stays in single digit nationwide. If lock down are not announced and enforced, people in Hunan that are richer will flood to other cities such as Shanghai and Beijing for better medical services, as this happens from several news reports. People would choose to travel since their immediate action will not cause medical shortage elsewhere before they are handled. The idea of seeking medical help elsewhere will make matters worse is correct, but it is a macro level insight and will not change these people's mind to grasp these resources before they are gone.

It is not deniable that without a lockdown, people in Hubei province will on average get medical help in the short run and everybody else is much worse off. This is why it's not a sacrifice.

I had the same reaction as you, for the same reasons. That said, I'm a bit more skeptical about the proliferation of automated code formatters run e.g. as pre-commit hooks. A project-wide consistent formatting style is the right thing to have in 90% of the cases, but neither the style guides nor the tools enforcing them are perfect. There are situations where a particular piece of code will suffer a readability penalty if formatted in a standard way. For those situations, the formatter must have a way to locally disable it.

The real difference between the two frameworks boils down to developer happiness. In Angular, all of the choices are made for you. For some, the lack of autonomy and agency when writing Angular applications makes those developers sad. It's hard to take pride and ownership in your work when 90% of everything has been decided for you, and if you try to eject from the "Angular" way of doing this, you end up just writing bad Angular code.

Choice to pick the best of breed solution to each smaller problem within the context of building an enterprise grade web application is at the heart of React. I get to look at all published routers and choose the one with the most intuitive API to me: I get to look at bundle sizes, and consider trade-offs.

> Most Xiaomi devices have a custom UX and additional weirdness.

That's true. Just like Samsung, Huawei, OnePlus, and any other Android manufacturer except Nokia, Xiaomi maintains its own Android ROM, called MIUI[1]. It's not as vanilla as Android One, but at least it also receives monthly security patches.

> Among which is the need to "sign up" online for bootloader unlock and wait for a timeout period. They do this because resellers used to ship bootloader-unlocked versions with "unofficial" mods of sorts, often with customers being none-the-wiser. Not an issue on the 'Mi A' line, for whatever reason.

It's not an issue with Xiaomi Mi A line, because Xiaomi's reputation is not affected as much if there is something wrong with a smartphone that is not running its custom ROM.

Nokia has only recently started allowing to unlock the bootloader of some of the models, and has a similar process[2].

The One Reason We Won't Stop Facial Recognition
> It would be more fair to compare the US with all of Europe, including Spain, Greece, Croatia, etc. What percent of people are working from home in Croatia?

These are all shown on the map. Only a handful small Eastern European countries (plus Greece) have lower rates than the US. Spain has 4.3% people working from home. Countries both with lower and higher population density than the US have higher numbers.

> According to the article, the US vs. the entire EU rates are not too far off.

EU is 5.2% and the US 2.8%, that's about half of the EU.
Good question. I would guess it's very low if we're talking exact match. It would have to match N features. There's effectively an infinite number of combinations, many more than the 8 billion people curently living.

In reality, there are already real-world doppelgangers, where a typical observer would confuse two (unrelated) individuals. I'm guessing that could happen with a synthetic image too, but it's probably not any worse than a real-world matching error. (The bigger concern is the related one of deepfakes, which don't need any kind of synthesis, they just act directly on the real person's image.)
