There are two mutually exclusive views of the web. As a set of protocols set to allow individual humans to share information about things they love and the web as a set of protocols to make a living. Since the corps took control of the web by ignoring the w3c and forming corp controlled whatwg all browser and html spec decisions have been corporate needs motivated and these security needs have been killing the free web by requiring everyone do all the things money transacting corporations need to do.

But, you don't have to use a mainstream browser and you don't have to stop serving HTTP. It's a personal choice. The two webs can still exist alongside each other if you chose to not follow the money.
I haven’t used them but I think one of the bigger benefits (for some) is that they’re running (a forked version of) varnish as their caching proxy, and you can provide your own VCL for doing “fancy” stuff.

It's not so much that the water looked off (which it did compared to the rock), it's that the character was completely unencumbered by the water. If you're walking through ankle-deep water, your feet are going to slow down as they drag through the water and go faster through air, and the character's stride didn't account for the increased drag. It'd be the same as if you put that super-realistic character in a stylized game like Hollow Knight without adapting her animation to 15fps like the rest of the characters are.

The animation was great, but the graphics were much better, and one can't help but notice the quality difference even though both are awesome works of art.
I cringed when it came to describing how he'd try to tell the FBI half truth. Even if they hadn't had enough evidence to get him for his involvement in the Kronos malware, they'd still throw the lying to a Fed charge at him.
So, a fictional company, a family before capitalism was conceived, two startups that made it big but before they became big, and pretty much everything else defined by nostalgia for a time during which your fictional company was supposed to have existed.

I agree that the current crop of MBA CEOs are detrimental as a whole.

Perhaps it's just starting off with a fictional company but this really reminds me of someone being asked to list heroes and naming John McClane and the guy who said Nuts to the Nazis at the Battle of the Bulge. Which I got to give props to the second guy of course, but it feels like the viewpoint is limited and not securely tied to reality.

But Walmart and Amazon/Whole Foods are doing the same thing but just having their own pickers in their store. Until my Kroger delivery comes from the warehouse and not the the actual store Instacart will be fine.

Amazon Fresh might be a real competitor but it seems like they're running into the same problems as grocery stores.
I wonder about the same thing. When I graduated in 1985 Fortran was already described more or less like you just did. However, when I recently dug down through the NumPy/SciPy stack to understand some details I saw a lot of Fortran code. Some popular algorithms seem to exist only as Fortran with various language interfaces on top.

So I don't think there are very many new projects being started but the presence of so much critical code in Fortran will extend its lifetime some more.
Thank you. I will take this advice and contact the investors.

There is a difference between acknowledging and discussing facts that may be uncomfortable, and using facts selectively as a way to justify hatred and violence. (This isn't a comment either way about the veracity of your research).

I'm confused - Firefox and Chrome act completely identically to a self signed cert for me. Both let me click through after looking at the cert or expanding a section. I have never been "blocked" by some hidden modal unless the site chooses to be HSTS-enforcing, and in that case Firefox does not allow a clickthrough either.

Both examples on latest current, taken right now:

Maybe they didn't even notice. It's not like the New Yorker is a science magazine or this was a science article. I didn't notice what unit of measurement was being used, but that is probably because I am accustomed to thinking in feet and miles. That might be the same with the New Yorker authors and editors. It probably didn't even occur to them.
This can be a Good Thing, but it depends a lot on the courts not being lazy and taking shortcuts. When I was in front of a judge there was no disagreement as to the material facts of the case, but my guilt and my sentence were decided based on the Court's determination of my intent. The only evidence the court had regarding my intent was my own testimony and the differing hypothesis provided by the police officers I'd had a verbal disagreement with at the scene. Guess whose story they went with.

Hey Michel,

thanks for joining the conversation and clarifying things. I'm far from being an expert on Dgraph so I learned a few things from your answer.

Regarding the data model, that makes sense. I read that Dgraph support properties so I thought you built something along the lines of the RDF+ framework with seems to support properties and labels.

Yes, you're right, ontologies can be represented in any graph but it's clear that RDF is a better option due to the reasons you mentioned and other ones. That's the nice thing about the emergence of different graph databases, you get to pick the right system for the right job :)

When it comes to performance, to be honest, I'm not a big fan of random benchmarks, as it's always tricky to get them right, especially for systems that have big differences. We usually let developers do that for their specific use-cases and we just try to help them set up Memgraph as best as possible.
Cheers.

I always like to point people to /r/SubSimulatorGPT2 [1] as a good example of what GPT2 is able to accomplish.

It's a subreddit filled entirely with bots, each user is trained on a specific subreddit's comments matching it's username (so politicsGPT2Bot is trained on comments from the politics subreddit).

Go click through a few comment sections and see how mind-bendingly real some comment chains seem. They reply quoting other comments, they generate links (they almost always go to a 404 page, but they look real and are in format that makes me think it's real every time I hover over it) entirely on their own, they have full conversations back and forth, they make jokes, they argue "opinions" (often across multiple comments back and forth keeping the context of which "side" each comment is on), and they vary from single word comments to multi-paragraph comments.

Take a look at this thread [2] specifically. The headline is made up, the link it goes to is made up, but the comments look insanely real at first glance. Some of them even seem to be quoting the contents of the article (which again, doesn't exist) in it's comments!

If you threw something like 50% "real humans" in the mix, I genuinely don't think I'd be able to pick out the bots on my own.

The vast majority of time on research supercomputers is used in running Fortran codes. (Click on 'languages' https://www.archer.ac.uk/status/codes/ , this is the UK national facility.)

And yes, as you've noticed almost all linear algebra is written in Fortran (BLAS, LAPACK, ScaLAPACK), so no matter what language you've written something to do some useful computation in, it's likely that most of the cycles are spent in Fortran!

So what is the connection between the GPS points and the cell triangulation? How does having the cell triangulation data lead to having the GPS points? The parent claims the providers can magically access the GPS receiver in the handsets. But they really cannot, so the providers only have coarse data that cannot be used to track people on this level. The data is from another source, not the provider.

It’s much more likely the user agreed to install an app that is recording his location information.
Looking into it more it's less clear than I remembered. OPD considered scrapping it in 2014 saying the costs weren't justified and they'd rather have more money for their helicopter.

"Should we really be given that extra privilege simply because what we chose or wanted or had the ability to do is in higher demand?"

So you think you are privileged because you exercised your option to decide and do what's best for you? Or because you have the demonstrable ability to make it happen - ie - learn a thing that is in demand? Is it a privilege of the ability to act in your own self-interest?

Stepping back, maybe it's because you have acquired cognitive skills that others have not that you are privileged? The mere ability to think for yourself, that's a privilege too, then? What about changing your mind, increasing your understanding of, evolving a thought...all privileges, yeah?

Perhaps somewhere along the line you have made a decision that was hard and required risk and sacrifice but that contributed to who you are and where you are today, was that pain and suffering part of the privilege? What about losing someone or something you love, because surely it's a privilege to experience love in the first place, no?

Is anything that makes us different and unique from one-another not a privilege by extension? Has the word privilege been used and abused to the degree that it means absolutely nothing anymore?

What about being alive...is that like, the ultimate privilege? So when all are privileged, are any, really?

In an ecological sense, the water level in the Dead Sea is dropping because Israel and Jordan siphon off too much water from the Jordan river for irrigation. By the time the river gets to the Dead Sea, the average flow rate is lower than average evaporation.

I'm also an extension developer, and Google has done this to me a few times too. We request permissions specifically for what we need, and our extension is unlisted and can only be installed from our website.

Google is a bully, and they use their size and the threat of permanently removing access to your Google Account (and family photos) to terrorize small players without cause.

How many people would Google need to hire to provide email support for extension review for extensions above a certain size? It can't be a huge dent in their budget.

Couple things.

The "no commercial purpose" restriction is going to create a lot of regulatory push-back on any ETF marketed that way. Part of me thinks a sufficiently motivated group could mount a legal attack on that rule, but that would be expensive unless you got some public interest group on your side.

Since the STOCK Act was passed, the alpha in these trades has basically evaporated [1]. I think if you looked carefully, you could find some alpha in the industry tilts, as trades in sector ETFs attract far less scrutiny and laws have a tendency to affect industries as a whole. I haven't checked myself.

But you run into the same issues mostly because Kroger's delivery service is "just as 3rd-party" as Instacart. It's still an employee going through your store, grabbing stuff off the shelves and delivering them to you. There's basically zero first-party advantage.
Show HN: What Madam C. J. Walker can teach to founders nowadays
I did notice that you said "as a service". That doesn't change the situation, really. The person who films is responsible for making sure they film legally. The added "on behalf of a customer" probably doesn't make a difference, unless your local laws care about whether your filming is commercial or not.

Changing the technology from 35mm film to VHS Camcorder to AI powered drone doesn't make a difference. Adding abstractions between the lens and the operator makes no difference. If your organization films with cameras, it should make sure it does so legally.

> So, again: if one of the legal requirements of the CDaaS service is to automatically avoid (or at least not-surveil) any private property—then what would the rule for that look like?

If you have determined that you need to "avoid private property" in order to comply with the law, then the rule you'd want to implement is "don't film private property".
I wonder if restaurant meal delivery is a problem that has been solved, that is waiting to be solved again.

Something that I tend to think about, coming from working for a manufacturing business, is that quality problems are often rooted in manufacturability, which is rooted in design. A unique meal, that is made by hand from a bunch of variable ingredients, is a design waiting for scale-up problems, unless you change the design to support higher volume production methods.

People figured this out a long time ago, how to manufacture foods that could be scaled way up, and even delivered. A supermarket is such a solution. The food might be less exciting, but the quality level (i.e., reproducibility) is very high.

The industry is trying to solve a design problem with delivery technology.
The Senate is attempting to pass this. What are the chances that it'll pass the House?

This seems unlikely to be successfully blocked in the Senate (though it's still worth trying; different arguments might work with different senators, talk to yours). But it would help to rapidly talk to representatives to ensure that they vote "no" on the overall act.

Of course, the whole thing should be a "no" with or without this amendment; the Patriot Act should just die unrenewed. But if you can't convince your representative to vote no no matter what, try to convince them to vote no specifically if this amendment or anything like it is in the bill.

No path to profitability. A path to growth, and a path to publicly traded company, and a path to VC's getting lots of money from that process.

Also a process for new companies to emerge to put the now-struggling attempted-profitable public companies out of business as they seek a business model.

The bossman is saying the employee should take care of their kid in the exact same was as if they were working from the office - which is to say someone else is usually doing it. The bossman is conveniently ignoring the fact that schools are closed, while the bossman's SO is taking care of their own kids - which is to say that the bossman is intentionally being willfully ignorant of the employee's situation. I would expect nothing less from a bossman that thought this type of surveillance was a good idea in the first place.
Isn't /x/ experimental by definition? They introduced a breaking changed to an experimental library. This does not fall under the scope of the compatibility promise. The compatibility promise works great.
While this is completely amazing, a caveat: graphics are way less important than we think it is. I still remember every nook and cranny from Tomb Raider 3's jungle level, and when I think about it I imagine being deep inside a real jungle. It didn't matter that everything looked jagged; my imagination could go wild.

This is probably a flawed opinion, but sometimes I think the more realistic games become, the less work for our imagination. I don't mean to say that we should stop upgrading graphics. What I do wish to say is this: if you have to choose between optimizing gameplay or graphics, choose gameplay. If you can do both, do both. Having access to a ridiculously powerful easy to use engine does not automatically mean you can do both by just jumbling high detailed props, foliage, terrain together and be done with it. It's counterintuitive, but it takes even more skill and a keen eye to create beautiful and immersive environments in a nearly photo realistic engine than those used 20 years ago. Why? We live in a perfect photorealistic real world, so we immediately spot things that just look weird and unnatural in game. Whereas in old engines our imagination corrected for all those things.
I am pretty confident that YouTube will be able to scale to handle any increased load coming from my service.
> which wouldn't get the same buzz or VC valuation.

But a local, profitable delivery service wouldn't need to be a VC-funded business. It could start out very small, serving just a handful of restaurants in a single neighborhood. If it caught on, other restaurants could join in and it would grow.

It wouldn't need "buzz" either, since it would only need to market itself to restaurants, not to consumers (who would deal directly with the restaurant in the proposed scenario).

As I understand it -- primarily from TED Talks -- corruption in India is endemic and somewhat expected. Sure, it's a form of racketeering, in the sense that many government employees have to give their boss a cut, and if they don't, they will be replaced by someone who does. It's typically presented as an "expiditing" fee.

And the cause there, as presented by Wikipedia[1] is fascinating to contemplate. The abnormally high tax rate (especially compared to the services provided) increases the demand for corruption to avoid taxation. Taxation avoided reduces money available for bureaucrat salaries, to where they are almost reliant on the bribery system to make ends meet. And hence the pressure on line staff to kick back money up -- a promotion would separate you from direct contact with the public and represent a loss of income that must be replaced somehow. It's kind of a weird Laffer curve phenomenon where higher tax rates yields less revenue.
