Collaboration with other EU/NATO countries?

Their current nuclear powered carrier has participated in quite a few conflicts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_aircraft_carrier_Charle...
Isn't that dealt with by running a non-profit? "Churches, charities and other non-profits are also exempt."

If you need a a commercial company to make money before handing it over, here in the UK it is common to set that up as a subsidiary of the non-profit. Charities do it all the time, a subsidiary company runs the charity shops, and gives the profit to the parent charity. This allows the shops to be run more like a commercial operation, with fewer constraints than a charity is required to follow, then when the money is handed up to the charity those constraints apply to how it is spent or distributed to other charities.
Why can’t it be simple wall-clock time? Each frame takes 24 hours of real wall-clock time to render start to finish. But they render multiple frames at the same time. Doing so does not change the wall-clock time of each frame.
thanks for useful information
Withings has one certified as medical device (the only one I know of that got such certification)
Yes, Decentralized Finance (DeFi) has been very lucrative

Basically its great because everything is client side so all you have to is make frontend websites for people to interact with, and even that isn't really necessary. You just need people, with wallets, to be able to interact with your smart contract easily.

The smart contract you deploy has to address a pain point for existing users, typically by consolidating multiple transactions they are doing into a single transaction.

Your smart contract can take a cut of the transactions that flow through it.

The ongoing overhead costs are practically non-existent. The initial costs to deploy your smart contracts can vary to be several hundred dollars at time of writing.

It doesn't really matter what people think is happening in the blockchain space, or their infinitely moving goal post to reinforce their view about a lack of use case. The reality is that there is a market and there are market needs, just like any other market. The distinctions in this space is that the payment system is built in and all the users bring their own connection to the nearest servers which store all your variables. It's not different than any other financial services, just way faster and permissionless to get a foothold in.
From what I know, it's hard not do do awesome pictures in Iceland. What a marvelous place...
You seem to be trying to say that each element in itself doesn't invoke the illegal drug use metaphor. Even if that were the case, my argument is that the three pieces bolster work together.

Just like if I named a game "Alcohol" and the logo was a glass with some liquid in it, and the tagline was "Have a good time". Individually none of those would necessarily be promoting drinking alcohol. After all, alcohol has uses for cleaning, and the glass is just a glass, and "Drink in the fun" is just describing what it's like playing the game. But if you put them together, they unequivocally do.

As for there being legitimate uses of amphetamines, I'm not saying there aren't (I'm well aware of these uses, personally). That doesn't mean the off-label uses are legal. AFAIK, at least in the US, using amphetamines solely to "keep awake" is an illegal usage, and the tagline is referring specifically to that.
Actual code examples from Actix isn’t that bad but take a look at the docs.
Big companies like Microsoft or Github don't usually put noticeable effort into helping those, so what difference does that make?

I note, though, that among the companies I've known well is one where the first 100+ male employees got an options package and no female employees did in the same period. That company would pass Erica's test. Rightly? I think not, and I don't know many companies, so I'm a bit suspicious about the accuracy of her approximation.
IIRC there was also the argument that since an officer hadn't seen the crime committed it did not hold or something.

I recall hearing about legal cases which made the city I was in disable and then remove them because they became useless after the rulings.

Yeah; Windows had something like that, too. It was WSL1 (or just "WSL"). I also tend to think that was the better approach.
I really like this breakdown, and I’ve employed it (to some extent) with various people. In my experience, however, it’s not so much that it worked with them; rather, they found the discussion frustrating and became despondent only within the conversation between myself and them. In other words, I didn’t so much change their mind as help them decide to not engage me on whatever particular topic.

I find that incredibly frustrating. Maybe I’ve rubber-ducked myself into realizing I’m not doing something right.
Any names you see in seating plans on the PerfectTablePlan website are ficticious.

BTW the fact that the seating plan isn't stored on a third party server is a selling point for privacy minded users/organizations. Particularly when it comes to politicians/royalty/celebrities etc.
It is better to drive in Siberia through the wilderness, because the roads in Siberia are cursed:

Accounting for speed limits is such a basic thing in a route plan. I wonder if there was incorrect information in the source about the limits.
Well, no. This reaction is what people refer to when they say "loss of privilege" causes reactionary behavior.

If you think of it, even when you're not at the top of the food chain in your social order, being part of a dominant group makes your actions still causal to some sort of undesired or painful (and therefore violent) consequence to a member of the out-group. Nobody gets to decide what's good or bad, you just need to follow the chain of opportunity cost, determine who foots the bill and who reaps the interest.

It's indeed pretty hard to swallow...
> literally all the small business has to do to be

These are the most dangerous words ever. Especially that this requirement is probably ineffective. It is a small paperwork, yes, but it is there. A couple years later, it is reviewed and judged to be ineffective and new requirements are added to this paperwork.

Then we end up with hundreds of paperwork to fill and submit just to be able to run a business.

some conspiracy theorists are actually mentally ill -- suffering from delusions or psychotic symptoms.

it's really easy to see this if you just go to the conspiracy regions of social media -- people providing "evidence" consisting of strange numerology, pointing to nonexistent patterns in photos and texts, claiming that random events are coded messages or evidence they are being monitored, etc.

i think these people are relatively small in number but have outsized influence in conspiracy communities, because they are much more vocal than average online.

attempts like this document makes to explain conspiracy in terms of emotional needs, personality, and cognitive habits are not without merit, but I think they will never provide a complete explanation.

none of these recommendations will work for someone who is not currently capable of normal cognition due to mental illness.

of course it's doubly irresponsible for laypeople to try to diagnose specific strangers. and history shows that "my political enemies are mentally ill" is a very dangerous idea.

still, I think communication strategies around conspiracy theories should take into account that the community they want to reach includes these people, and research into conspiratorial thinking also ought to take it into account.
Those “popular judgements” were because the laws on discrimination say so. There’s no law saying a store has to sell what they don’t want to. If Target (for example) decides to stop selling Pampers because they don’t like the name (for whatever reason), that’s their choice.
I agree that calling something a "Conspiracy Theory" is basically name-calling. Calling something conspiracy theory doesn't tell us much if anything about what is true or not.
This does not work when one with the slightest bit of discomfort in arguing wants to cease and put an end to further discussion.

A lot of conspiracy theorists are fundamentalists. It's like faith. You can't muscle through it with logic, reasoning and data. Answers and positive evidence will lead you nowhere.

Public embarassment, mockery and comedy are the society's ways of dealing with this. Not saying this is a good idea as it bolsters them even further, but this is all we've got.
No conspiracy theories thrive when the truth nuanced and complex, and takes more than two sentences to explain.

For example, rare and unforeseeable side effects from vaccines. They exist. Information is not being suppressed. However, the risk-benefit calculation from both a personal and societal standpoint is just complex and muddy enough to be exploited by some snake oil salesman hawking nutritional supplements that boost “natural immunity”.
Async has ecosystem fracture issues. Creating graph data structures require you to understand more about borrow checker.

Majority of people will probably want to use Rust for web? Which makes async needs to be ergonomic enough if it wants consider wide adoption.
Can't you just run Postgres natively on Windows? It's a database, you can talk to it from WSL over a local socket, no?
> We are acting in the long term: over the next few years we will build the nuclear propulsion systems for our SSBNs and SSNs. If our engineers did not design on-board nuclear boilers for decades, we would weaken this know-how and our sovereignty.

At the very least, they are relying on that nuclear knowledge when the French submarine fleet needs replacing in the future.
Mmm, just wondering. Why shouldn't I use Prometheus black box exporter for something like this, considering you can receive alerts too, plot it all in Grafana and have an enormous ecosystem at your disposal?
Depends on the context. Why waste the fuel to start and move a vehicle if there’s not enough traffic to demand a free pump?
I imagine that this role reports to some middle manager in the PR department.
It is absolutely about scale.... an employee costs $x of dollars regardless of how many servers they are managing, and might improve performance y%..... that only becomes worth it if y% of your hardware costs is greater than the $x for the employee.
It could still be wallclock per-frame, but you can render each frame independently.

What theory?
There’s certainly something to that. Before the pandemic, I would have never thought to order a burger for delivery because that’s just not what one does. If I wanted delivery, I’d go for pizza or Thai food.

But during the pandemic I wanted a burger, and getting my car out sucked (yay city living), so I ordered a delivery burger. Immediately after that subpar experience I thought “oh, that’s why ordering delivery burgers isn’t the norm” and went back to ordering noodles and pizza instead.

It’s the leap from “culturally this isn’t a common thing to do (order a delivery burger), so obviously it’s the restaurants fault that my experience wasn’t as good as it would be in store” that I don’t get.
Their ad delivery network is a vechicle for cyberbulying and hate speech and these things do kill people.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/01/business/hana-kimura-terr...

It's also interesting how Japan tries to quell cyberbullying, while regular bulying is rampant in this country with kids dropping out of school.
So if a car stops charging for whatever reason (fault, someone unplugs, finished charging) they get fined too since they're not actively charging? Seems like a system with more potential problems than it solves.

In general I'm against any system that automatically fines people.
There is no tradeoff.

DeWitt clauses are corporate censorship and are 100% self-serving.

There is zero benefit to consumers having no benchmarks at all available for entire product categories.

There is an enormous benefit to corporations to be able to silence critics with the threat of bankruptcy via lawsuit.

This is big corporations using the law to bully journalists and citizens, nothing more.
It's not a product. Click bait.
It's low effort spam. The sender finds a known email+password dump from older hacks of big services, then sends the same thing to everyone. Since the email can be sent pretty anonymously, I don't expect anyone to seriously do anything about it.

I just send it to spam, check that no account is using that password anymore and move on.
That's not a bug tracker.
What makes licensing possible -- do you have a patent? Reimplementing by a competitor, at least at first blush, seems like it might be feasible?
There are only 22 aircraft carriers in service worldwide. Safe for the US, no country has more than two of them at the moment. A single aircraft carrier can do a lot for military power and power projection.

This is a staple of audit report stuffing. Somebody got an idea that disclosing a version of anything anywhere is a huge security hole, so now any publicly visible version string generates a "moderate" (they are usually not as brazen as to call it "critical") security report.
This seems like an odd decision given recent developments in the area of supersonic missiles. China and Russia seem to have to technology to easily sink carriers from quite a distance. Aircraft carriers are almost obsolete.

Please make your points without crossing into flamewar accusations and name-calling ("brainwashing", "ridiculous amateur CCP bad analysis regurgitated"). You're badly breaking the site guidelines when you do these things, and it sadly also guarantees that what you say won't be heard by anyone except the people who already strongly agree with you. That's not conversation.

This is a highly emotional topic on both sides, and that makes it more important to follow the rules, not less: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

I know all too well what you're experiencing from "seemingly intelligent people", but fulminating not only doesn't help, it reinforces the very things you're complaining about. We all do this, and in that sense we're all creating our own enemies. It's a trap and it takes a lot of work to even begin to become aware of it, but what choice do we have? Certainly if HN is to be a place where people have curious conversation, everyone needs to work on this.
Thermal cameras measure much larger waves (7-14 microns as described in the article), and their sensitivity to amplitude is high.

A major limiting factor in camera sensor resolution is signal to noise ratio. It is well known that if you bump up the "ISO" (light sensitivity) to make photographs at night, you see more noise. The higher the sensor resolution, the smaller each photosite and therefore the less signal (fewer photons) captured in the short time of one exposure.

Larger sensors can solve this problem but these are CMOS devices whose cost increases superlinearly with area (like microprocessors, see die yield). Most customers won't accept dead pixels.

Economics is also a major enabler of kilobuck 50 MP visible light cameras, miracles though they are. Industrial users aren't going to re-buy all their cameras every few years like DSLR users do.
That sounds really interesting.
The way to counter and shed light on conspiracy theories is to construct an alternative similar theory and then ask, why do you believe this instead of this?

Say you believe that Hillary is a pedophile. Why don't you believe that Donald Trump is?
I feel this is the consequence of paying people for security bugs reporting (and only security bugs reporting). People start to inflate the number of reports and no longer care about proper severity assignment as long as it get them that coveted "security bug" checkbox. I mean I can see how bounty programs and projects like hackerone can be beneficial, but this is one of the downsides of it.

CNA system actually is better since it at least puts some filter on it - before it was Wild West, anybody could assign CVE to any issue in any product without any feedback from anybody knowledgeable in the code base and assign any severity they liked, which led to wildly misleading reports. I think CNA at least provides some sourcing information and order to it.
These are fraudulent and are usually just spam; in some cases they will include a real password based on cracking a leaked password database. (The spammer will hope that you've re-used passwords so that the password in the leaked database is also one that you used on an important site. If so, this is a good reminder to use a password manager and not re-use passwords across sites; if you re-use passwords you can potentially allow someone who compromises a less-secure site to learn passwords that also work on a more-secure site.)

It's possible that genuine extortion attempts along these lines happen sometimes, but they're extremely rare compared to the relatively low-cost/low-effort spam version that doesn't actually require the spammer to break into anything.
That’s really cool.

Do you worry about licensees keeping the code and using it without you knowing if they cancel? Or an employee at a licensee walking off with the code / binary etc?

We’ve talked about some of these risks at my current job which ships code as our product so curious how other people navigate this.

Congrats on the success!

It's definitely not 24 hours per frame outside of gargantuan shots, at least by wall time. If you're going by core time, then it assumes you're serial which is never the case.

That also doesn't include rendering multiple shots at once. It's all about parallelism.

Finally, those frame counts for a film only assume final render. There's a whole slew of work in progress renders too, so a given shot may be rendered 10-20 times. Often they'll render every other frame to spot check and render at lower resolutions to get it back quick.
Wow!!, How much money you are making with this?

If the epistemic standard is a well-understood mechanism for HIV causing AIDS then yes I would say that hadn't been identified at the time, but the review I linked admits as such.

Moreover if what you disapprove of is the standard of evidence demonstrated by the medical community at the time then I think I can understand that even if I disagree with it. What I can't understand is why you think this is relevant to why Kary Mullis was a denialist, since it's clear he remained as such long after the evidence was overwhelming, the mechanism was demonstrated, etc.
It’s simply more efficient to update OSM, which makes OSM more up to date.

Google maps pulled data from OSM so the government had ~zero incentives to publish to GMaps and every other mapping service directly. It’s simply more work without benefit.

PS: If I remember correct Google was on a 2 week delay for OSM data at the time, but that wasn’t considered meaningful. Also, what’s with all the hate here?
How are you navigating the issue of establishing sufficiently strong interpersonal containers for at-home psychedelic assisted therapy?

We know that this relationship is critical for effective and safe guided sessions with psychedelic medicines.

And, that it's not straightforward to establish this relationship between two people if they have only met online (drastically reduced non-verbal communication bandwidth, difficulty/impossibility around establishing nervous system coregulation / entrainment).
Edit too late to edit: Reading through the The Pile paper they define public data as such:

> Public data is data which is freely and readily available on the internet. This primarily excludes data which is pay-walled (regardless of how easy that paywall is to bypass) and data which cannot be easily obtained but can be obtained, e.g. through a torrent or on the dark web.

This should disqualify books3, but they use it to justify books3.

They need to extent that definition transitively. Maybe that’s my frustration. If I collect data from torrents and make it more freely and readily available, then it meets their definition of public data, which is basically what books3 is. If they included it themselves, it wouldn’t meet their definition but because someone else redistributed it first, it’s more okay for them to redistribute?
But that would mean OSM Starts competing with its corporate users. Not sure this will be a healthy strategy.

What I would love to see would be an app allowing me to quickly contribute to OSM, e.g. fix things, add street names or POIs, etc.
I've read the book and I'm a huge fan. I've been basically doing what you suggested but have been lacking good ideas for "make it rewarding" phase.
Somethings like cooking in batch once a week rewards me with having healthy cheep food available throughout the week. But for other stuff I struggle to find good rewards.
That's funny. I was just riding my commuter bike yesterday and remarking to my wife how it was funny how much slower I am on it than on my road bike. I assumed it had to do mostly with my aerodynamic profile and to a lesser extent what muscle groups engage when pedaling from a more upright position. The commuter is running Marathons in 32c and my road bike has Continental gp5000s :) likely a 30w difference when multiplied out for 2 tires. At a cruising effort where I'm doing perhaps 120-140w, that's huge! And it reflects where you're doing 12mph instead of 17mph.
Is it actually working, I have tried some CSS extensions for Chrome and FF and they did not see to.
Got bluetooth on your phone? Some cities are using bluetooth IDs to measure traffic flow, a phone or car's bluetooth ID as it passed sensors and calculating the speed based on the time taken to cover the distance. This isn't used for speed enforcement, they don't match the IDs to individuals/cars, but it certainly could be.
