Not as far as I am aware. Most proprietary chat apps have very little support outside basic messaging. Corrections and standard reaction emoji work for platforms that support it, but that's about as far as support goes in most cases.

Video calling, especially e2ee direct communication, would probably be unstable and if poor quality if you require the call to go through an extra translation hop.

Chat support has been getting better though, bridge performance has increased a lot over the past few months. If the web app for your bridge of choice supports calling, I see no theoretical limitation in implementing a call integration, though it would probably be very hard to get it working correctly.

Currently, but I everyone who's tried it is blown away by how good it is. So yes, they are different devices, but I fully expect there to be huge demand, that most smart glasses will have hand tracking, and that the end of the smart phone is without doubt.

BTW, the HL2 was design for sharing and privacy from the get go. It is after all the basis for next gen military helmets

Europe has struggled "pretty badly" with migrant crisis on the order of a few million people. Fairly soon, estimated climate change refugees in one of the most prosperous and advanced areas of the world is going to be at one order of magnitude more[0], i.e. about 1 person in 10 in Europe will have been fleeing death. This isn't +20C, this is within the next few decades.
At the scale of the world, we're talking about predictions of 150 million refugees by 2050[1].
Sea level rise is one thing, but climate change is also desertification, tornadoes, death of the seabed[2], melting glaciers and re-arranging of maritime currents therefore weather patterns. The decline of structures of agriculture can also lead to radicalization of people in some areas of the world (see [1] again). The collapse of food chains can also be global, and just for the US alone for example a rise of 4 degrees would cut corn production in half[3], while precipitating what is already in motion (again, just for the US as an example, migrant crises from Central and South America[3]).

Uprooting not only entire industries but entire cities, states, and lives on an order of magnitude significant for any major country of union in the world, is not something that will be easily done without significant loss of quality of life, rise in tensions and potential wars, and widespread shortages of resources.

I imagine your reference to +20C is wildly exaggerated, because there is so little research about that since predictions about compound effects become exponentially more difficult. Even just an estimate that's over a decade old of up to +5C change already presents risks to India, China, ocean life, and major cities like NYC, London and Tokyo[4]. At +3C in the world, due to differences between land and sea it is possible that on average people (who are on land) would experience rises of averages closer to +7C already.[5]

Needless to say that +20C is something else entirely, and it's likely that no possible study would do justice to the idea due to catastrophic cascades of effects. The claim that humanity would still be inhabiting Earth would probably require some redefinition of "humanity" and "inhabiting" if survival/adaptation proved to be possible, which are all far-reaching thought experiments with the extent of current knowledge.

Have you considered using an off the shelf differentiable programming implementation? Or are the requirements for real-time applications too demanding for existing software?
Maybe read the article? Because they are and we are.
For that last point, forced alignment tools may be useful.

An issue to watch for though is elision: a word in a sentence can often be said differently to the individual words, eg saying "last" and "time" separately one typically includes the final t in last and yet said together, commonly it's more like "las time".
Why should the federal government be taken as the authority on the definition in terms in a non-legal context (most of the conversation here is about an ethical argument)?
It's a weird comparison, but I don't think it's "cherry-picked" as much as sort of general "this is an interesting if fuzzy data point about Apple CPU performance." It's not too likely Apple is secretly feeding numbers to Steve Troughton-Smith. He's a somewhat (in)famous developer known for picking apart Apple OS releases and documenting the undocumented -- I suspect he's probably not on Apple PR's Christmas card list. :)
Couldn’t the employees decide what they wanted to do with their money?
We get it: you think that you (as a mediocre white man) will make more money if you continue to exclude minorities, and as such you want that to happen.

It fucking SUCKS that HN is so full of racists and bigots that y'all just talk about this stuff, and Daniel Gackle just sits there and says he's doing a great job so long as the racists use polite language.
>we'd see a proactive push among corporations to create inclusive cultures to invite that situation. But we don't

Wait, are you saying there has not been a push among corporations to increase diversity?

>In 2003, MIT professor Thomas Kochan noted that companies were spending an estimated $8 billion a year on diversity efforts. But since Trump’s election, and with the emergence of movements like #MeToo and Black Lives Matter, the industry has exploded. A 2019 survey of 234 companies in the S&P 500 found that 63% of the diversity professionals had been appointed or promoted to their roles during the past three years. In March 2018, the job site Indeed reported that postings for diversity and inclusion professionals had risen 35% in the previous two years.

The ultimate aim of universities is to lower wages by expanding the available pool of workers. Wow this fun
No, testing shows none of the countries are anywhere near herd immunity. They beat the disease back with the standard program of testing, contact tracing, quarantine, social isolation, masks, and so on.

The standard program works, and when a region or country doesn't follow it, sooner or later the disease runs wild. If we let that happen in the US, over a million would be dead before the disease was done.

Oh, and I bet you think Trump has been correct for months when he says over and over again there is no shortage of tests. But actually we need twice as many as at present for holding steady, and 8 times as many to beat the disease back.
That's fair- I don't think there would be a problem with an X-Frame-Options header that specifically said frame extents can be made available to the embedder or something.

Am I the only one who uses piracy to explore new technologies? For example, I pirated ZBrush and spent about a month learning it. At that point I felt I had invested enough time / gained enough skills to justify buying a full license, if I ever need to do more 3D modeling.

I had the same experience with Visual Studio back in the day (aka Visual C++ 6.0; fond memories...), and of course photoshop.

It’s a stupid game, but quite a personal growth vector.

Really? Are you going to do the feigned Slashdot era ignorance “Do people still watch TV? I haven’t owned a TV in ten years”?

82.9 million households have cable

https://nocable.org/learn/cable-tv-cord-cutting-statistics/

There are 128.53 million households in the US.

That means 65% of households have cable.

So what are the statistical chances that you don’t know anyone that pays for cable? Those numbers are somewhat skewed lower as far as cable TV because I don’t believe it counts OTT providers like Youtube TV, Hulu Live TV, etc.
Just do a quick search for transparent LCDs, I think it will answer your question. (Not enough light gets through, the result looks more like high resolution stained glass than a Retina display)
Feeling physical pain does make people avoid the situations that cause them. However, they are most effective when the physical pain happens very soon after and it happens consistently. Eg touching a hot stove. You get hurt immediately and every time. This teaches you very quickly not to do that. This makes physical pain not be as effective as a legal punishment through courts though. Courts take a long time to figure out guilt and they aren't always consistent. Being arrested fits far more into that category than anything the courts decide.

The other problem with using corporal punishment is that it's very easy to overdo it. It's also very easy to not do enough.

'Stabler' only has one meaning. Also my reply had about as much to do with your comment as yours did mine.
Yeah, I'm familiar with forced alignment. This is slightly nicer than the generic forced alignment, because my model has trained on the alignment of all of my training data already. My character based models already have pretty good guesses for the word alignment.

I think I'd be very cautious about it and use a model with a different architecture than the aligner to validate extracted words, and probably play with training on the data a bit to see if the resulting model makes sense or not. I do have examples of most english words to compare extracted words.
I looked at a few systems but didn't think any of them would work.

The real-time requirement is fairly hard. The robots I work on use a 1 kHz feedback loop, so it has 1 mS in which to recalculate everything.

Caffe is pretty efficient if you can supply batches of values, but the overhead is high when running real-time.

watch the hands not the mouth - take a gander at the demographics of microsoft/facebook/google and you'll see how much they actually support diversity initiatives
And sports fees, broadcast fee, fake fees that they try to pass off as government mandated taxes, HD technology fee, etc.

And with s contract....
We should be really skeptical of this headline.

If it reflects reality, these executives are too stupid to remember to breath, because a diversity "investment" that robs the people you compensate is about as brave as an instagram posting.

Maybe the employees started saying Verily should spend more on diversity. Maybe this is a reaction to entitled staff demanding that the company spend money that wasn't allocated for this year on diversity initiatives. This story, as written makes no sense.
Good insight, the leaders were in the thick of it. I don’t think anyone can argue many facets of society have disconnected leaders. Our politicians mostly are nothing like us, and the results show.
You'd expect the average Joe to do all of this ?
> I'm curious, what kinds of things do you see that are being prioritized for Firefox or Mozilla over things the community wants?

It's not about prioritizing over--aka "Mozilla wants X and community wants Y and those are in conflict." I don't think I've seen that even though it probably has happened at some point.

It's more about "Mozilla wants X and allocates resources so that goes to completion while community wants Y and languishes because maybe one or two people are actually qualified to work on it and they have full-time jobs."

> Issues for the project are prioritized based on need and ability to complete them, not age.

Quite a few of the Rust 2019 announced objectives saw very little progress, and yet people wanted to move onto new objectives in 2020. Erm. Why did those 2019 objectives see so little progress when they were important? Why are they now unimportant in 2020? Apparently Mozilla didn't seem to think those objectives were too important as they didn't seem to allocate resources to attack most of them.

However, this isn't a new problem. For example, you transferred a bunch of issues for the 1.0 timeline. Some of them were transferred into things like "This should be a library". Okay.

Someone later wrote that library. It has become a de facto crate solution and people use it. Yet that RFC/Library issue still stands open. The library author may not even be aware that such an RFC/Library issue exists. Whose job is it to close that issue and anoint that library/crate as "The One(tm)"?

Some of these issues have been untouched for 4+ years. No one is fooled that these are "in progress". They're dead and closed even if Github still marks them green. They might as well be closed out anyway as the language is so different from that milestone that many of them aren't even relevant anymore.

None of this is new nor specific to Rust. However, Rust is getting hit with it a bit more strongly because it's in a growing-phase where there is far too much work to do and far too few hands to do it.

(Funny you should pipe up. I'm sorry, I am certain I filed a Github issue on a Rust library issue asking for one such library to get a pronouncement from you, but the issue seems to have simply disappeared down the memory hole. It is a little unnerving that Github can just wipe out something I filed without reference or history.)
I don’t see the value add. I work at a place with 1000+people using Jira. No one complains about the performance.

There’s really nothing here I can make a case to the managers about. It does look nice but thats not enough.

I think there’s room for an opinionated issue tracker, Jira is like everything and the kitchen sink and people make their own rules.
Nah, it will be fine. /s
Which makes this seem like a very bad time to raise prices, with so many live sporting events cancelled because of the pandemic.

I totally feel that last bit w/ Linear. I took it with Data Structures/Algos, which was fascinating! In one class, we had a guided lab that was (basically) implementing PageRank, while in Linear we were approaching that problem _entirely_ from the theoretical perspective.
How generous to sacrifice the employees' overtime pay!
Ideally parents agree this with somebody appropriate in advance. Like end of life planning it's something that people are told to do, but most don't bother.

If my parents had both died during my childhood we knew we'd live with our cousins Catherine and Victoria. If somehow we didn't come with a pile of money (from insurance paying out or other mechanisms that fire when two child-rearing age people suddenly die) things would have been very tight for my Uncle and his wife but we'd have family.
> It’s just that all the stories I’ve heard about Ransomware in the past ask for sums of at least $500, often much more.

That's when they target corporations and governments. Such small amounts are nothing when those are concerned.

Notebookbar?? Now that's a silly name isn't it? Not at all catchy like 'ribbon'. Ribbon just rolls off your tongue. Just how am I supposed to explain to grandma what a notebookbar is??

I mean just look at these instructions

https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Using_the_notebook_bar/v...

I can't make heads or tails of this...first I gotta switch layouts?? Then I gotta go to view and turn notebook bar mode on? Then i've gotta choose between tabbed, contextual groups or contextual single bar...nope no siree this is why piracy's just not for me.

These knockoffs are always so complicated, why can't they be simple like the official certified word? And shiny and jazzy lookin'? I know ya get what ya pay for, but how hard would it be to slap some bezels and rounded edges on there? Maybe some 3d transitions?
Silence is consent. And not a single person at Verily would be foolish enough to voice their disagreement on this issue. I hope yearly bonuses are next. Putting your money where you mouth is, as it were. The hypocrisy of Google with its 4% black workforce seems pretty staggering to me.
That's your right. And you're perfectly free to do so.

But 'concludes' is nowhere near enough proof for me. I'll wait a little longer before I believe that organs are being harvested from live bodies.
This is really encouraging to see. So nice to see languages that have more speakers than the most commonly translated languages.

Yeah, it's a manufactured controversy tying together unrelated line items in the budget. "We can't afford mustard because we spent all that money on postage".
14TB drives were on sale for $200 recently. I picked up another 5.

15 drives * $200 = $3000 total 210TB

I also said LTO-8 not LTO-6. I can manage 15 drives. LTO-6 is 2.5TB which would require 84 tapes to equal the 210TB of hard drives. 84 tapes is going to require tons of swapping. What is the price of an auto switching LTO-6 library?

I would consider LTO-8 since it is 12TB per tape but those are going to be even more expensive.

You can't deprive someone of something they may or may not have had. Copyright infringement is legally not defined as theft for this reason.

Where it gets really muddy is whether copyright infringement causes any harm at all. We've had interest groups claiming millions of dollars worth of potential sales lost and we've had studies showing that actually piracy may be a net benefit to creators due to increased market exposure.

All of this pontification can be put aside though. China does not enforce copyright or most other IP laws, and yet has a thriving entertainment, engineering, literary, etc. industry. So clearly IP protection is not critical for innovation or a healthy industry, as interest groups here would have us believe.
Vim serves a very specific niche. Want to edit files on a remote server? This is the default option. Need to open a massive text file? Vim has got you where sublime, vscode fail.

This is why a lot of software houses don't come down too hard on individual pirates -- they often become your fans and they might result in business in the future. It's like selling concerts and merch as a musician.

Since software dev isn't the domain of lifelong nerds anymore I don't think most folk are as understanding or knowledgeable about the positives of piracy (or related issues around software freedom or the economic properties of digital data), hence your unfortunate downvotes.

It's a shame... there are many of us who would not be where we are today, as productive, value-creating citizens, without having learned our trade with pirated software.
> rest have considerable immunity

Data coming out of China is against you. People with mild cases of Covid-19 seem to have very few antibodies left after only a few weeks.

Humans seem to have some cross-reactive immunity from other Coronavirii which helps some people, but won't prevent you from getting the disease if you have sufficient exposure.

The growing evidence is that herd immunity simply isn't going to happen. This is unsurprising as we never achieved herd immunity to any other Coronavirus.
You make some good points, but the logic is pretty clear from the employers point of view. It might be helpful to think of it as analogous to supply chain integration. One advantage is decreasing overall costs by cutting out the middle man. If a property owner is making money on your company’s worker, you can save that much by doing it yourself. Another advantage is supply chain security. If The market rent doubles, your won’t go out of business.

The number of comments in here that ask for additional/richer data and are being flagged is supremely concerning.

I understand that this is a hot issue with very polarized sides, but in what kinds of circumstances is having more data bad, except to intentionally support bias?

Please understand that my question is only to understand why, in the context of accumulating data, is trying to obtain more/better data NOT a good thing?

I do not wish to debate what is already being said in the many comments already, so if it helps to change the context of the data in question in order to discuss, that sounds like a good idea to me.
