Big companies don't generally make ethical stands, and small companies can't afford to. Apple makes some stands but only to be competitive against Android.
> Here, we conservatively use the term “unresponsiveness” instead of “unconsciousness” to allow for the possibility that covert or disconnected consciousness could occur in the absence of behavioral response.

Conservatism is very wise! Given what they say in that quote, I'm very confused why they think it's justified in the intro to suggest they've identified 2 systems responsible for consciousness. Shouldn't they replace every use of the word "consciousness" with "responsiveness"? They're relying on a purely behavioral understanding of consciousness

Descartes famously thought that consciousness lived in the pineal gland, and similar arguments has tended to generate some well deserved criticism from philosophers of mind. Pointing at a physical thing and saying it's the source of conscious experience should come with pretty extraordinary evidence.

Early on, when Art in Res was just an idea, we played with a model where we took zero commission and monetized other ways. But, when we talked to our artists about it, they were skeptical and would ask "but how will you make money?"

I hear you that, when looked at in a certain light, it might seems high – but we work closely with our artists and they seem to all like that our incentives are aligned. Plus, we do our best to use that 30% in ways that benefit them, e.g. by guaranteeing that they get paid if someone absconds with their work without paying it all the way off.
Success is not about luck
Also, the massive impact of having a complex enough brain to form complex and intricate social structures made it possible for humans to dominate the food chain.
Again, that whole point of end-to-end encryption that allows it to eliminate the need to trust the vendor only works if the vendor isn't the one supplying said end-to-end encryption. Please don't make arguments that "Signal does this or that you can trust them", you do not eliminate the need to trust them this way at all. If you do have to trust them not to spy on you, it's not a proper "end-to-end" encryption, simple as that, it's effectively the same thing as a regular TLS encryption to the servers, where you have to trust them not to spy on you on the servers. And in either case that trust will be eventually violated, because there is no incentive not to, but plenty of pressure and incentives to violate it.

I don't know what's so confusing about it. You like Signal and trust them, that's fine, but I don't trust them or anything coming from the US, I really would like to eliminate such trust. Claiming that I don't have to trust them is unproductive and a lie.

I was hired originally as a contractor but was converted to full-time as I had a competing offer, I was fired despite exemplary performance for a very "at will" reason. After getting some legal advice I may comment further but they're actively firing folks and not converting good contractors. If you're still at the company watch out.

I don’t know that anyone expected (nearly) every state to impose a stay-at-home order. Crashing our economy into a brick wall is not an easy decision.

I frankly expected things to get much worse before state governments took action.

Obviously we could have done much better, much sooner, but I certainly can believe why early estimates were much more pessimistic. And that’s all disregarding the fact that we still don’t know how/when this ends. We might still be in the early days.
I've heard this so many times but I'm not sure it is true.

I helped with processing the results of a large government RFC for a large government aid bill (Farm Bill 201?) and the exact opposite was true. There were too many responses to individually read each one so the responses just got bucketed and counted. You could be fine with a one off response but it would be less likely to be bucketed correctly and would still only be counted once per bucket at most.

To cover your bases I would always do the easy one click option and then write the handwritten letter as well.

Cryptoindex AI Daily Predictions and News for 04/09/2020
I was a little apprehensive, but decided to try this. I called my representative as well as both senators. In all cases (3:30pm on a thursday) I just got a voicemail. I left a short message in each case. Nothing could be easier.
I was going to contact my senators. One of them is Dianne Feinstein, and... ugh, why is she always on the worst side when it comes to privacy? She's actually a sponsor of this thing.

I've written her enough that I can already write my own reply from her office. Shorter Feinstein: "Thank you for your concerns, but you're wrong."
People keep saying that backdoors weaken security in general, but that's simply not true. If you create a cryptographic backdoor that only one third party entity can access (because only they have the private key to do so), this doesn't fundamentally make it any weaker than ordinary end-to-end encryption (where the recipient has the private key to decrypt the messages you send them).
I had the same feeling. I'd been working on building software for so long that I wanted to build something with my hands. But I ended up building a whole house instead. It probably wasn't a good idea in retrospect to be so ambitious, but it turned out pretty cool: https://parkcitygreenhome.tumblr.com/

I ended up doing about 60% of the actual labor on a 7000 square foot house by myself with one laborer as an assistant. I did most of the foundation, framing, finish carpentry, flooring, stone masonry, siding, and electrical work myself.
Ask HN: Are you using A.I. to solve anything around COVID-19?Where can I find it
These articles don't address the critical aspect of WHY.

Why are these conspiracy theories about 5G being spread?

If the why involves geopolitics and economics, you just have to look at who has the most to lose from this, factoring in that China is now the cheapest option for this tech(not sure if they are the leaders, but certainly will be the cheapest with a state-funded subsidy).

HN being a critical thinking community, it is fair to postulate theories from an economic perspective. I don't think anybody will try to sell "long-life milk powder" during such discourse.
They're trying to get you to spend $3000 on an air conditioner, which is about double what a good heat pump would cost for it.

I could do that, because nobody knows who I am.

It's pretty hilarious for The Federalist to be accusing others of being a threat to public health.

https://www.theverge.com/2020/3/25/21190928/twitter-locks-ac...

> On Wednesday, Twitter briefly locked conservative site The Federalist’s account for suggesting people deliberately expose themselves to the novel coronavirus. The Federalist promoted the medically unsound idea of “medical ‘chickenpox parties’” to infect young, healthy people with the virus under controlled quarantine.

Their staff were downplaying this for quite some time, including long after the "the WHO [took] until March 11 to even declare a pandemic":

I like that you're open to holding ambiguity around this.

There are few things we should proclaim with certainty, and "5g is 100% biologically harmless" doesn't seem to be one of them, yet.

>who benefits from the "anti-5G" coordinated effort?

Some:

Scientist who've staked their reputation against 5g, disadvantaged telecom co's, conspiracy theorists/media who prey on fear, gov't who don't like the social direction connectivity is taking us (populus' can 'wake up' increasingly quickly).
I take issue with the premise that there is anyone who doesn't have time to send a better signal? It takes all of about 4 minutes to call the Capitol offices of your two representatives in Congress. They'll get your name address and you can make it as quick as "I just wanted to let Rep./Sen. so-and-so know that I am for/against HB/SB 1234." and it's done. You will absolutely spend more time looking up their phone numbers than you will on the phone.

You can do this while walking out of the office to the parking lot or metro station.
Yep this is the key, its not really the data science end its the engineering piece.
All valid points. I personally use the 9ah batteries and am fairly happy with the capacity. It is, indeed, known to be (relatively) slow at charging the batteries as opposed to the individual charger.

Motor start/stop is fairly energy intensive so it doesn't surprise me that you can only run the table saw for two hours...
`CREATE EXTENSION postgis` implies that you have PostGIS installed. PostGIS is about five times the size of Postgres itself, and has about twenty requirements, some of which have their own heavy trees of recursive requirements, some of which are near-impossible to build in certain environments (e.g. macOS Homebrew) without weird finessing. The (alpine!) Docker image of a PostGIS-enabled Postgres is 713MB. That's a lot of extra binary if you just need to record some points!

And the real problem with all that isn't the size/deps themselves, but rather the fact that the size/deps will probably lead to you wanting to use a binary distribution (or pre-made Docker image) of PostGIS rather than treating PostGIS as any other Postgres extension installed against a regular running Postgres cluster. Which then means that you'll need to find/settle for the set of extensions that are packaged for that binary distribution, rather than just using the standard set of extensions that come with a standard Postgres distribution (e.g. the PGDG Postgres apt repo, which contains many individually-packaged extensions.)

If could contribute an idea, I wonder if one can make the camera watch your surroundings but with people recognizer that would notify you if someone is approaching with the intent to interact with you, and maybe show a notification or an approaching avatar. It would be neat in an office scenario. The next step would be a screen in the real world telling your visitor whether you're busy or interruptible, and a button the visitor can push to "knock on your door".

So that's the future, maybe: cubicle dwellers get their own VR offices...

- I don't really care much about the Covid-19 relief. If you are donating then good for you and for helping the community. But I do actually avoid websites/services that try to advertise donations as a selling point. I can donate myself if I want to.

- Also, do not penalize artists who do not want to donate to Covid-19. That's their business. They might be giving more, through other ways, to the community. They might be tight with money. Whatever. But the way the website is presenting it is that these guys are the generous guys.

Why are the feds watching these conversations in the first place? Has a crime been committed? If they’re investigating a crime, surely there are more avenues of investigation than Facebook chats that didn’t even exist ten years ago. Whatever happened to good old fashioned police work? Seems like they just expect everyone’s chats to be handed to them on a silver platter when they ask for it.
SQL string concatenation is fine. You mean parameter concatenation (into the query string).
It would depend on the representative - if they're on committees related to one or the other, I'd select that one. If it's 50/50 I'd probably choose Telecom/FCC as that seems more technically accurate.
I'm a deep learning researcher. I have an 8 GPU server, and today I'm experimenting with deformable convolutions. Can you tell me why I should consider switching from Pytorch to Swift? Are there model implementations available in Swift and not available in Pytorch? Are these implementations significantly faster on 8 GPUs? Is it easier to implement complicated models in Swift than in Pytorch (after I spend a couple of months learning Swift)? Are you sure Google will not stop pushing "deep learning in Swift" after a year or two?

If the answer to all these questions is "No", why should I care about this "new generation tooling"?

EDIT: and I'm not really attached to Pytorch either. In the last 8 years I switched from cuda-convnet to Caffe, to Theano, to Tensorflow, to Pytorch, and now I'm curious about Jax. I have also written cuda kernels, and vectorized multithreaded neural network code in plain C (Cilk+ and AVX intrinsics) when it made sense to do so.

> There are numerous accounts of businesses receiving calls from Yelp salespeople essentially telling them to buy an ad package or the negative reviews get prioritized.

Sure, there are numerous accounts (read:hearsay) but there's zero physical or hard evidence.

After all this press, don't you think there'd be at least one recorded phone conversation or email that showed up in the numerous lawsuits' discovery processes?

There is literally zero physical evidence corroborating Yelp account execs' extortive practices.
I mean, anecdotal data ra ra ra, but this is super appealing to me, and I'll probably be making my first art purchase >$500 as a result.

TLDR: Both are afraid of Netflix making channel subscriptions superfluous.

It's an interesting read with lots of explanations.
I think we can all agree that C++ is a dragon that needs to be slain here. Swift could potentially get close to that for most of the needs, but I still wouldn't bet data scientists would write swift.
A friend of mine insists so much on this theory he sends me articles and videos from super unreliable sources of random people claiming its science, but all of them fail to include actual proof, or really an explanation that makes a little sense. When I try to bring up the "show me coherent info" to him, he just avoids the question and continues to say that we are being shut from freedom of speech and from the truth.

This actually convinced me that Yelp is probably unfairly being targeted. I had come into this thinking that they were in fact unethical.

However, this video very clearly shows a family who incorrectly blames the business owner for one of their members losing a job. Yelp fired them, as they should have.

We're at a major disadvantage, so I'm not sure where that optimism is coming from.

We have to stop it every time, and in every variation. On the other hand, they can keep trying over and over again.

I'd much rather see EFF and others working with congress to introduce laws that _prevent_ this kind of thing, saving the long sequence of future fights as this resurfaces under names. One of those fights, we're bound to lose.

I hate to say it, but we have entered a time where information has been not only successfully weaponized, but can also be easily spread throughout the entire population with stunning penetration results. Quick example, I have recently found out about Yulin celebrations. I have zero to no doubt that it happens to be a part of anti-Chinese propaganda ( what are the odds of guy like me finding out about a local custom in a Chinese province organically ), but I simply cannot help reacting emotionally to its content.

I am sure 5G is spreading like wildfire for similar reasons ( though admittedly, this one is kinda silly, when there are actual things to worry about ... like say Mnuchin suddenly being able to disburse billions of dollars with a friendly IG, but I digress ).
Ask HN: Is there ANY scientific evidence of 5G being harmful
I see lots of people talking about negative health effects from 5G but I have never seen any evidence. It is always some guy talking on YouTube or equivalent.

Well, in 2016 Russia thought they would benefit from promoting racial tensions in the US though e.g. bogus Blue Lives Matter online groups.
