We can only do classification (for now), and we need users to be able to provide enough labeling functions that are correlated well with the true labels. Text and some video tasks are examples of where it can work well, since it's possible to write heuristics over the primitives (words for text, presence of an off-the-shelf object detector firing).

There are other tasks where the right decision might be to go get a bunch of human-labeled examples -- an example I like to think of is how you would describe a chair, if you didn't have any object detectors lying around. That's a situation where a) it's hard for a human to describe what you're looking for, and b) you would potentially get more bang for your buck by just having an army of Turkers label a bunch of chairs for you, since everyone knows what a chair is.

Wow, how are those numbers so different? You would think a functioning health care system in any developed country would be similar. The controversial topic in the US isn't really the quality or quantity of healthcare, it's about who pays for it.

You might tell me it's because of something unique and bad in the US system, and we should see the Scandinavian countries to see how it should be done - but no, Denmark 2.6, Canada 2.5, Sweden 2.2 all have fewer beds per capita than the US. It's Japan and Korea who are the outliers at the top at 12 and 13. [0]

It really must be a cultural/lifestyle thing. Would I really spend 4 times as much of my life in a hospital bed if I lived in Korea? And if so, would that really be a good thing? I assume usage is reasonably high in both, the beds don't sit empty waiting for a pandemic.

Or you might remind me that those countries have famously old populations. But that's not it either. Japan has an old population, but still only twice as many 70+ as the USA (according to the population pyramids at [1]). And Korea has the same proportion as the US.

It makes me wonder if they are comparing like with like: maybe some of the reported hospital beds in Korea would be considered to be in nursing homes or convalescence centres in Europe or the US.

When I was in college I met a fella from Michigan. The first “winter” here in Florida he was wearing shorts and laughing at us wearing sweaters and coats.
That summer every time I saw him he was soaking wet.
The next winter he was wearing sweaters also.

Something about tropical heat will do that.
That seems like an attempted insult on the US but your comment is dishonest. There are a lot of layers to laws (Constitution, Congress, state's rights and their laws, local laws, etc).

What country are you from? I'd be interested to read up on any country that doesn't have corporate lobbyists or special interests involved in lawmaking.

Anyway for future reference, unless specified, most readers are going to assume you are referring the US.
VxWorks is about that I believe. When you reach these kinds of price tags though it's hard to evaluate them on a per seat basis, because they tend to come with built-in consultants, etc.

CryEngine 3 is notoriously $1.2 million, but I believe that's a "total cost" rather than a per seat style license.
I don't think that applies here. What this is saying is if Bob registers joe.com from Namecheap, and then licenses joe.com to Joe to use, then Bob is required to provide his own contact information to Namecheap, and Joe must provide contact information to Bob. Then if Bob is informed of wrongful use of the joe.com, he must hand over Joe's contact information, or be liable for the harm done. It says nothing about Namecheap's obligations.
I'd be interested to see what would happen in the tech world if there was a UBI. How many more startups would there be if people could survive on a UBI.... it's essentially like having an unlimited runway to get startups off the ground. Not the "we are going to disrupt entire industries and make billions" type of startups most likely, but still, worthy startups creating chunks of software for smaller markets that take longer to monetize

The stigma is hard. As a mental health professional I am biased, but I think the parents that come to us for support are some of the best parents I know! Curious, thoughtful, and interested in working with someone to develop a thoughtful plan. We find there is a range of feelings. Some parents on our service shout out their happiness with working with us from the rooftops. Others have said it feels uncomfortable to share. Regardless, parenting is extremely personal. And we recognize that parents inviting us into the process is vulnerable and sacred. We don't take it lightly.

I've been using a zsh plugin called fzf-tab[1] for the past few weeks and it's been awesome. So many use cases:

- of course, command completion

- type `echo $` and press tab - fzf through all your environment variables

- type `command ` and press tab - fzf through all programs available in your PATH

- type `builtin ` and press tab - fzf through all of zsh's builtin functions

- select multiple results at once, they'll be concatenated with spaces

- pick files, with the ability to press / to select a directory and automatically restart fzf-tab inside of it

Quite typical that the crime being investigated is a petty trademark infringement, while there are real victims who’s privacy and dignity is violated by these scammers.

It indeed disgusts me that as a society of laws we go after violent criminals, not because they violate real victims, but because they infringe on a trademark of a multi-billion dollar company.
The desire to do that sounds like an imperfection to me...

Antibody diversity is created through a process called hypervariation. It is basically a random generation process. We then filter out those that recognize markers produced by our own body. So each person's antibody will work differently in recognizing the virus, that is choosing what markers to bind to. Whatever antibody that works will go through a clonal multiplication that causes the B cells that produced the antibodies to replicate, conferring resistance to reinfection. So long as your choice of antibody does not happen to depend on the SNP (a seemingly small chance but we also don't know its function for the virus so hard to say) you will be resistant to both types.

Lots of interesting points here! A few things as it relates to Trustle. We focus on children 0-5. The process with a teenager would require that the child be MUCH more involved (family therapy would be appropriate). With very young children, it is an awful lot about the parent - not in a blaming way, just that little kids don't have control of their emotions, they are unpredictable, and it's our job to regulate them and teach them how to self-regulate over time. This is actually exactly why we work with parents directly (and truthfully, evidence-based behavioral interventions for young children almost always work with parents too). It's a system, and when kids are really young, parents are leading that system.

I will say lots of our parents are self-aware. They might be frustrated or mystified by their child's behavior (and that's completely fair!), but the fact that they are willing to talk with us means they are open to the idea that they as the parent can change things environmentally and behaviorally to help the child. I think the parents on our service are pretty amazing.

Please don’t shame me. And if you do, think about this: why am I shaming someone for desiring a better world?

I think the fact that you are not angry about this situation means your golden handcuffs (whatever they look like) are causing you to be blind to underlying structural or systemic issues.

A reason I post here is because I don’t know everything and I enjoy learning about different views. I have learnt a lot from reading the discussions people have on here.

Sometimes this also means that I produce counterpoints and weigh in with stories or some counter-arguments when the topic seems interesting/relevant to me. If you believe I react strongly (or as you described me: “outraged”), then I’m glad to know it and I will bear it in mind for the future, and try my best to be even more nuanced/curious.

I believe we are all beautiful complex humans who just happen to be pushing plastic buttons and sending our thoughts into cyberspace. I am grateful for the possibility to talk with you, and it is not my intention to hurt you.
Yeah, my initial thought was "why are you building all of these systems to remember random factoids?"
Hmm, Yangs proposal did not eliminate all other safety nets. His program simply made people opt out of one or the other, and encouraged people to stick with whatever paid them more.

The knock on effect is that it'd likely reduce funding for other safety nets because they have an inherent safety net in UBI. But the existing welfare programs are either highly prohibitive or extremely difficult to qualify for and maintain even if you should be using them. UBI eliminates that barrier of entry if you only need 1k a month (using Yangs plan here).

So, yeah, less people would likely use food stamps because they can get more from 1k a month than from 1.2k in food stamps. Most people do not qualify for that much in food stamps as it is. With fewer people using that program, the government would funnel less money to that program, reducing net costs and allowing more money to go elsewhere. Eventually this would likely lead to the end of that program.

This could allow us to create new social programs that are more focused. With fewer people requiring other social safety nets, the new ones that are created would require less funding and can address root cause issues vs symptoms which are what we address today.

Most people just need money. A minority of people using a social welfare programs need something significantly more than just money. We should not leave those people on the street, but Yang never planned on that happening. He proposed a VAT tax to cover the costs. Whether that would actually work or not is debatable, but that was his plan.

> Open to having my views changed on this.

If you agree that a world with more cyclists would be better (for the environment, for safety, maybe for public health), how do you suggest we get there? Encouraging change towards a better world often requires swimming upstream, shouldering some stress and discomfort and pressure, in order to exert pressure back on the system one wants to change.

Nobody will build safer bicycle infrastructure if nobody rides bicycles.
I don't think you can figure out the practical limit like that.

First: musicians and athletes in their prime can make more, and that's definitely labour income. Second: if a bus were to hit Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos or Warren Buffett, their companies would lose lots of value. So even though their day-to-day income looks like it's coming from investments, a big part of it is actually labour income.

(I'm taking 'hit by a bus' here as an exogenous event that would make the CEOs unable to work, but wouldn't touch the companies at all and crucially wouldn't imply to investors any other information about the companies.)

Similar for running a hedge fund: as far as the tax man is concerned, a lot of the income they generate for the people running the fund is some kind of capital returns. But in an economic sense, it's mostly labour income: if you want to estimate the capital side, just see how well the hedge fund's customers are doing out of their investment; any returns insiders make above that are labour income.
Assuming it's true, I wonder a) how much money Boeing "contributed" to the process, and b) whether other aviation safety boards will pay attention to the FAA's safety claims.

That's very theoretical though. The truth is, for most people, the police aren't going to be targeting them with this, and even if they do, well the police already have numerous means of invading someones privacy.

Arguing that everyone should have those means at their fingertips, in practice, will mean the likelihood of this being used on you goes way up, and that there's no longer even the theoretical oversight that police use would have.
I don't like to have adjust my build systems to run an additional pre-processor over my code when there's no actual requirement for it. I don't want to have to deal with code I did not write appearing in the middle of code I did write.

GTK is written in C. Gtkmm is written in C++. Totally different. Gtkmm's signal/slot system is better than the original one in Qt. I haven't looked at Qt's current system in quite some time.

someButton.signal_clicked().connect (mem_fun (*this, &Handler::method);

Many variations to allow binding, argument hiding, return value hiding and all the usual stuff.

Gtkmm has several display widgets that use a model/view paradigm, and let you define your own model and then map that to the view. If you literally just have a bunch of strings, there's one specifically to handle that situation.

I haven't used Qt myself but have worked in close collaboration with people who use it a lot.
This is kind of a double edged sword though.

Say the virus mutates so that only 50% of its features are recognizable.

You'd think that the fact that your cells can recognize this is good, and it is to some extent, but, it also prevents new cells from learning about the virus(in efforts to prevent autoimmunity in analogous scenarios with non malicious objects; our immune system has to walk the fine line between being too permissive and allowing infections, and being too restrictive and murdering its own host through nasty autoimmune diseases).

So, it mounts a 50% response, which is often good enough, and more than makes up for the more limited response with speed.

But what happens when the % recognizable drops to like 3%? Some percentage of cells will recognize the 3%, and be able to mount a weak response, but more critically, block other cells from developing new responses. This limited response will slow down a proper response and itself will be likely ineffective.

Its known as "original antigenic sin", if you want to read more.
I really wish that China had not filtered/hidden the data related to Covid-19 for its population. That would have really helped the rest of the World prepare better.

Right now the rest of the world is just grappling with if the mortality is 3.4% or is it higher or lower. How many, across gender and age groups and so on, end up in ICU vs have milder symptoms, and so on..
That's not BS, it's literally what "supremacy" means. Usefulness is an entirely different metric. And Google didn't come up with the term "quantum supremacy" (which is a rather awkward phrasing anyway), it was well established in QC research prior to anyone actually claiming it.
I am the latter.

I wonder what genes regulate adaptability or comfort to different climates? How much is simply environmental (perhaps epigenetic)?
Right but you actually have to be able to do that, and introducing inefficiency in the form of blockchain doesn't seem like a way to make anything cheaper.
