Oh, the key signal processing idea is this: alpha is the dominant frequency band (highest amplitude, most resonant frequency). The other bands are roughly harmonic doublings or halvings of alpha. That is how the brain couples different time scales together -- it can synchronize gamma cycles to the beat of alpha. It's like music, then, for integrating different rhythms together.

By the other interpretation of $6500 dollars in 1950 (roughly equivalent to 70k today), it would be much higher than the average family income of 1950 of $3,300 and put you in the top 10-20% of earners, which is probably not as far as 70k gets you today.
Like Amazon, Facebook, Google, Apple or Microsoft?
It most probably will cost an arm and a leg since it's not designed to be a Raspberry PI competitor but a device that will be used in MRI scanners, large digital signage displays, touchscreen industrial controllers, ATMs and other expensive low volume hardware.

Btw, I think Google could already either pay 70k+ to every employee or is pretty close. They just need to make sure that all the janitors and baristas are employed by subcontractors.

How does the delivery service get the restaurant to foot its 30% of the bill in that case? Do they call the order in as a regular customer and then show up and identify as GrubHub, at that point the food has already been made and they hold the order hostage? If so then that is beyond shady.

I'm a PhD student. To graduate, I need publications. The quality of my publications, and hence my possibility of graduation, is evaluated based on the reputation of the conferences I publish in. The same applies to a PhD graduate trying to get into a post-doc position, or a post-doc trying to get assistant professorship. For historical reasons, many of the reputable conferences are closed and ran by publishing houses that charge unfair money for them. We are trying to change that.

Have you considered the Helios64? Modest CPU (6-core ARM: 2 Cortex-A72s, 4 Cortex-A53s) but a nice enclosure, a 2.5 Gbps port + 1 Gbps port, and an excellent price: only $285 for everything but the drives.
Ineffficient? It would depend on the total value add of each employee. As stated, the performance of the company increased. The capability of individual employees increased.

Now, without exact numbers, I can't say economically this or that.

But effectively this was not a zero sum game. The company was not paying more for the same outcome, they were paying more for more output.

The output of the company increased. This is how investments are usually supposed to work, you put money in, and reap profits.

What makes this a bit more difficult to gauge that it's likely the increased performance does not come from individual output, but from a better cohesion of the team which generally makes things always easier and efficient.

What people often get wrong is that they think about wages atomically - I pay this guy this much and he delivers this. Whereas when you are having a team of workers (whose job is not to be a mindless drone) and whose output depends on the co-operationnof the individuals, often the second order effects are more important.

For example: rewards. You give a huge reward to the single top performer in your company. What happens? Everybody becomes jealous of him, and some will feel cheated since they contributed heavily to the projects the individual participated in. Future collaboration will likely suffer.

In fields were output is purely of individual performance (some sales jobs, logging, etc) this calculus is of course different. In these situations the atomic cost analysis probably works.

I have another comment on this thread that discusses the difference between research and engineering. The goal of this project is not to improve your google search results via the provided framework. That argument is an fine use of reductio ad absurdum, but it assumes a different premise than the one that the paper is addressing. The paper is an inquiry into where are we building systems that could empower user modification but for some reason or another are not. I encourage you to read the Related Work section of the paper to perhaps pattern match on other more fleshed out systems that might demonstrate the end goal in a way you've seen before.

It's actually very relevant, the TL;DR (from memory) is that lawyers (and judges) aren't programmers, and the source of data (referred to as the "colour of the bits") is as important as the actual bits of the data. Thus "I have this bit pattern as part of a bit enumeration" is different, to the legal system, than "I have this bit pattern because I specifically created it".

I'm very happy to see this type of vehicles emerge.

I own a twizy (that can go up to 80km/h, and 100km/hour with a software modification, thus needing a licence), and it's the perfect urban vehicle. I live a bit outside the city (15km from the city centre) and it's perfect: you can park anywhere, you go the same speed than others and I even got a (silghtly legal) tow bar for a small trailer.

If I recall correctly, the twizy is no longer produced because it's true that it had some flaws: two seats one behind the other and no real windows (you need gloves and a scarf in winter). So seeing this citroen car is a delight to me. I hope they make a 80km/hour version too.

You can not even buy a house built on the 1950s on 70k a year. And while most quality claims (which usually lack actual numbers) certainly look subjective, the quality of a dirt lot or vial of insulin has obviously not changed while their adjusted inflation price has sky rocketed.

At any rate, the claim that "stuff" is more expensive because it is better implies that decades of technical improvements have resulted in no efficiency gains. At best, it implies the value per man hour has essentially remained flat. And since the option of buying lower priced versions of items has dispersed, we can never know if the higher quality item is fairly priced.
I'm a bit surprised by this snippet from the "Traversing and manipulating data" example:

for (auto& elem : *arr) {
// visitation helps deal with the polymorphic nature of TOML data
elem.visit([=](auto&& el) noexcept
{
if constexpr (toml::is_number<decltype(el)>)
(*el)++;
else if constexpr (toml::is_string<decltype(el)>)
el = "five"sv;
});
}

I thought constexpr would work at compile time but how can the compile here inside a loop "know" when this labmda will encounter an int or a string ?

It's one of the more insightful things on the Internet; well worth the time to read in full. Still, a TL;DR as requested:

"Colour" is a term that encompasses provenance, chains of cause-effect, intent and related concepts. Bits are obviously colorless from compsci point of view, but are colorful from the legal POV. For instance, bits encoding a copyrighted video are just numbers, but for the judge it'll matter whether I got them from a lucky PRNG run or from a torrent site.

Not understanding that colour is real in legal systems is the core source of confusion people have wrt. intellectual property and illegal information (e.g. child porn).

I've often thought how strikingly easy it seems to be to produce sentences that have probably never been written before.

For example:

That seems a fairly prosaic sentence at first glance but I doubt has been written before.

Usually headless in this context refers to content being exposed through APIs instead of a generated user-facing frontend. This way, you can develop the user-facing frontend in whatever frontend libraries and frameworks you want and just consume and expose the CMS content through APIs, and you can use the same APIs to expose content in mobile apps etc...
A typical example of a non-headless CMS is Wordpress where you get the admin panel for content management, _and_ a user-facing frontend for end-users to consume the content.

You are using cargo-cult reversed-causality reasoning. Just because you put money into something doesn’t mean you should expect to get more money back out. If I dig a big hole in the ground and throw wads of cash into it, I don’t expect market returns.

After ages of using squid to handle all my network transfer I got annoyed of using atomic bomb to kill an ant and I am replacing it with my own software.

I am unable to find any list of cdns to enable caching forever for specific domains/urls.

The true death rate is unknown, the currently measured case fatality rate is 20X higher than the flu. This should be taken with a big grain of salt, because early case fatality rates are generally highly overestimated due to mostly testing people that have severe complications. The seasonal flu is much better researched.

The passengers on the diamond princess cruise ship [1] could give us a better estimate of the true death rate, because they all got tested regardless of symptoms. So far 4 out of 700 people have died (0.5%). The death rate for people 65+ with the seasonal flu is 0.9% [2]. If the coronavirus is as deadly as the flu we expect 7 people to die, if it is 20X as deadly as the flu we expect 140 people to die.

To be honest, optic is soooo much cheaper than 10G-T.
I've upgraded my home network to 10G in parts (not each link, but critical ones: for NAS and for my workstation) and everything is a lot cheaper with optics. Switch are much cheaper per port, transceivers are dirt-cheap on eBay, Intel X520-DA is cheaper (even if you add price of transceivers) than -T variant, not to mention old Mellanox cards.

If distance allows DAC patchcords are cheap too, and single-mod fiber cables with LC2 connectors cost almost as good twisted pair, only slightly more.

One disadvantage is that LC2 connectors are rather bulky and you could not install them yourself as easy as RJ45 ones, so if you need to route cable through very confined space, it could be a problem.
I think your reasoning is too atomic. Think about the call center worker who was stressed out. How well will he respond to out of script situations when he's stressed? When he's in top shape, fully emotionally invested in his work? What about his colleagues? In out of script situations he likely needs the selfless assistance of other employees. How well will this interaction go if the persons are co-operating in a friendly manner, fully invested in the customers problem, whereas if they are both stressed and unable in any high level thinking?

I would guess customer satisfaction is greater if the call center interaction in exceptuonal situation is handled by a better performing team.

This same analogue applies to most functions in a company who's output depends on the co-operation of it's employees and is not trivially automated.

This is not cargo cult reasoning. Self guided teams are recognized to be a highly effective form of organizing a workforce. If you make everybody motivated and emotionally able to reach out as well as respond, you effectively create a situation where the team self organizes dynamically around incoming problems.

Like I stated, this depends on the nature of a company. A lone logger has somewhat of a constant output. You can't increase the output of loggers suddenly by paying them more.
I hadn't heard of Furthark before, very cool project. I've actually had "Learn How to write a compiler by writing an APL that supports GPU-optimized numerical ops." Part of the reason that I was interested in working on such a project (besides the fact that I find APL, GPU compute, and compilers really interesting) Is that I feel like the rise of new compute platforms (GPUs, BLAST accelerators, Neural Net accelerators, Crypto ASICs, etc.) and open hardware (RISC-V) could motivate a new wave of research in compilers (I guess that is what MLIR is).

It's really easy to picture how having a family of programming language for every class of accelerators can go very wrong, but it's kinda cool to picture what it would be like if biology, chemistry, meteorology, astrophysics, and other quantitative fields had open-source hardware accelerators and software stacks that became foundational components which "normal" programmers rarely ever touched. Then when we finally get practical quantum computing down to the size of something that could go in a PCI-E slot, there will already be a compilation toolchain waiting to target it.

If you do think a fine is unfair you can contest it pretty easily though. Most people who do this are incorrect and end up still paying the fine (because the were actually speeding) but in cases where the cameras are wrong or if there was something special going on the fine is usually thrown out the window.

At least that's my observation here in .nl. Obviously the cameras aren't always right, but the people I see complaining the most are also the ones that drive >10% over the speed limit by default anyway.
