The more interesting data point is that the "URE" spec. That is "unrecoverable read error". All of these drives do track at a time with full ECC to facilitate reading in the presence of noise, but a track write can have effects on adjacent tracks and temperature can affect head flying height, and vibration can affect head tracking, etc. All of which, statistically, can create a non-recoverable bit error. Typically this spec is like 1 in 10^14 bits.

What it interesting about this spec is that it is statistical, meaning that the more times you read the bits, the more likely you are to hit a URE. HDD manufacturers do all sorts of things to avoid them (re-trys, track mirroring, etc) but ultimately it is a mechanical system and there are a LOT of bits.

When I was at NetApp, the company would get reports of UREs that were fixed by RAID reconstruction (so you read a disk, you get an error and you fix it by the ECC in the other drives). And we had determined that by 4TB it would be "stupid" to using mirroring for protection since if a drive failed you couldn't count on being able to re-silver the mirror by getting a clean read of the other half. (something like 1 in 20 attempts would fail and you'd have data loss). And of course reconstructing a RAID-5 group for a failed drive you need to read the other drives, for larger groups of disks (which people did to maximize data storage) you started becoming at risk of being able to reconstruct all of the stripes. That was the genesis of doing dual parity (which Netapp called 'diagonal parity' because of the design).

The ZFS folks have also considered this and designed both dual and TRIPLE parity which makes sense for these larger drives!

It already takes a long time to reconstruct any "wide" vDev in ZFS that is zraid2. So one wonders if you could solve for device capacity where 'reconstruction takes 3 years' (the depreciated life span of a drive at Google).
It's also good to see the communities come up with different approaches to the same problem. I'm not an R user, but R Markdown is really great, and I'm glad that someone put forward such a strong candidate. Similarly, much as I love Jupyter, I'm really glad that projects like Pluto.jl and RStudio exist to expand what's possible.
"If Phi is measured in complexity you could make a glass window complex and that is conscious."

No. The term is quite clear on this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autopilot

> Autopilots do not replace human operators. Instead, the autopilot assists the operator's control of the vehicle, allowing the operator to focus on broader aspects of operations (for example, monitoring the trajectory, weather and on-board systems).
A suspended license doesn’t mean that an operator is functionally unable to avoid ramming into obvious obstacles. Unless there is evidence that the driver intentionally meant to ram the police car or other wise cause harm through gross negligence, then his suspended license (and the fact that the hit car belongs to a cop) is a detail, but not the story.

To put it another way, if a driver suffers a seizure on the highway, and Autopilot was able to avoid all collisions and bring the driver safely to the side of the road, what do you think the headline should be?

“Driver suffers seizure on interstate, automatic driving system steers car to safety”

Or:

“Man successfully drives on interstate while having an incapacitating seizure”
I'd say both Tesla and the driver would potentially be responsible. Tesla for the pattern and the driver for the instance.

Same as any other situation. If one 737 Max crashes, Boeing may blame the pilots. But if another crashes, Boeing has to take some responsibility.
> Another idea is treating your servers like cattle, not pet. I used to have Linux VMs in my house named after Greek myths – these are pets. I named and loved each of 'em. And yes, after being setup, they worked. In Kubernetes, they're cattle – and you kill your cattle. You don't name and grow to love and nurture a specific VM. You can wipe your deployments and reprovsion a new one in a blink.

Look, I understand people have issues with the naming. FSD is a separate issue and they've been selling it for years without having any sort of working software you can actually use, without any indication that it ever will work as advertised (an "actual" full self-driving system).

But if a plane on autopilot crashed because the pilot wasn't paying attention, the pilot would be at 100% fault. That's the origin of the naming, even if it's confusing to a layperson. I'm not here to argue about whether they should call it this or not.
"and cross geographic region replication to protect against natural calamities (earthquake, tornado, floods etc)."

As I mentioned - you can have that. That "geo redundant" service is managed by us and requires no intervention on your part. It costs 1.75x more.

"It also conjures a managed service with object-level (volume, directory, file) metadata, versioning and strong identity access management capabilities."

We give you an empty UNIX filesystem that you access over (Open)ssh. Whatever metadata and identity management comes with that (or with overlay tools, like borg or restic) you may use as you see fit.
I think this argument is based on the false dichotomy of "The mind & body are either different or the same!".

This denies things being similar, or multi-dimensional. Apply this same reasoning to hardware/software for example:

"What is software code made of that it can simultaneously affect the physical hardware, yet somehow exist separately from it?"

the mind, and software, are data, or information - and data can be replicated on multiple mediums. This data / medium distinction is no more or less perplexing. The "OK" hand-gesture can represent something in physical form, while the physical hand is distinct from the symbolic message it represents - if you want to get philosophical about symbology and representation I don't think there is a special case to be made for the mind.

> Human consciousness is dependent on much more than our brains

How can you support this statement when you first lead with "We don’t even know what consciousness is [yet]"?

We have words for "god", "magic" and "spirits" too, and don't know what those are either; isn't it possible none of them exist?

> we cannot emulate consciousness without first emulating the billions of gut bacteria

Only is consciousness specifically depends on this aspect.

It's like saying "The setting sun also affect our mood, so that must be emulated too!". That's not true though - It's be possible to emulate a human mind, without exactly reproducing the same personality and emotional profile of a modern human being. Simulating human environments and/or experience to feed a simulation data is a bigger project than replicating a mind. If you are simulating every detail of human existence the question is what you are trying to achieve; post-human AI being don't need to be anything like modern humans phycological; and I doubt the contributions to mood of gut bacteria are considered fundamental in that - and I've yet to hear a modern human consider the diet in questions of consciousness.

For example, We live, and eat, very differently to our ancestors - Does that make us any less human, or conscious?

I don't think so, and as such don't agree that: "All of it, it turns out".
FSD has been sold since... years ago. I don't even remember when they started selling FSD, its just an option on Tesla cars for a long long time now.

That's the thing: the features of this are are named "autopilot" and "full self driving". What do you expect people to do when they spend $5000 or $10,000 on "full self driving" ?
>>> Tesla is going to keep selling Autopilot

>> Not if they keep hitting parked cars they won't, the law will catch up to them.

> Uber killed a person with a safety driver not paying attention and all safety systems turned off. Did the law change? It did not.

Hmmm. You seem to have glossed over the verb aspect. How many people did Uber kill like that?
See above. TFA claims that IIT is testable, but does not say anthing at all about a test that has been published, a test that has been done, a test that some research group is doing,
a test that is being considered, a test that could be done given some scientific or technological development. Nothing.
How did you get to the decision makers to pitch your idea? Unless you were already well connected, I presume it wasn't easy to get attention from the right people.

Running into the back of a police cruiser that's partly in the lane with lights on is something humans generally only do before blowing a .1x on the breathalyzer. ... This is a typical case of software making stupid mistakes a human would never make.

Humans making this mistake do tend to brake at some point, just too late. There's still an accident, but damage is mitigated and survival odds, with seat belts and airbags, are good. Teslas are notorious for plowing into unrecognized stationary obstacles at full speed.

Many drivers don't get that limitation of Tesla's system. Which is why Level 2 systems that get it right most of the time are dangerous. Tesla has a really good lane keeping system, which creates the illusion that it can drive well. Until it can't.
That ignores that somehow a very high % of drivers in the US are on a plain suspended license, or none at all, and nobody particularly cares that they are or if they crash and injure. One block is immigrants with unclear status who don't bother to get one in the first place, another is the usual delinquents that don't bother to pay fines or tickets. Having straight up lost your license in the US from incompetence are a vanishing number, because well that is practically impossible in the US.

(I don't believe this group has a particular tendency to want to hit stationary objects, though.)

Crash investigators don't need to take the drivers word for it. They have devices that plug into what is left of the ODB2 port or directly into the cars ECU and download the contents of the Event Data Recorder, which gives a usually 30 second snapshot of all the data leading up to an airbag deployment.

I think you are confusing re-licensing with sub-licensing, which are not the same. Under copyright law, the copyright holder is granted certain exclusive rights over their work and re-licensing is one of the rights. If the license grants sub-licensing, a licensee can pass on some or all of the rights in the license to a third party. Of the three licenses you mentioned, only the MIT license allows sub-licensing.

The license terms for a sub-license must be consistent with the original license terms, although not necessarily the same. The sub-licensor can use different words as in the original license, but they cannot override the terms and conditions that are required by that license. The sub-licensor cannot sub-license more rights than have been granted by the original license.

Works released under the Apache, BSD, and MIT license can be included in a larger work with a more restrictive license or modifications can be put under such a restrictive license, but the original license must remain intact.

If you are getting your information on re-licensing from the Wikipedia page below, it is wrong.

The problem with waiting for Tesla's side of the story is that not only do they have a very strong vested interest in one outcome, they have also been caught lying about this stuff before.

We previously talked about JackTrip WebRTC[1], which I first thought was similar. But while JamRTC uses WebRTC, it's not actually browser based, while JackTrip WebRTC is. (And of course they are similar in that they are tring to do low-latency audio conferencing via WebRTC.)

And then there is regular JackTrip, which the author refers to in the FAQ, which is neither browser- nor WebRTC-based.

In all honesty, it seems your personal experience is clouding your objective judgment.

There are plenty of academic studies regarding the matter of MAOIs in tobacco smoke, and their addictiveness.

Also, most studies on smoking do not make a difference between smoking and pure nicotine. It would be great if you could check the sources of the Wikipedia article to see if this is the case there.
I don't understand this reasoning, it's such hyperbole, we are not sacrificing anyone. You are already part of a society that makes these types of tradeoffs and calculated risks all the time. We don't spend an endless amount of money on extending everyone's life at any cost. And people who are overweight and unfit have a personal responsibility as well, and can also isolate themselves, why do we have to traumatise a whole population of healthy people unnecessarily with lockdowns.

It's so unbelievable far fetched, that asymptomatic people should still transfer virus through contact surfaces and that this will in any significant way increase the infected health care professionals at the elderly peoples homes, despite them having professional equipment, and those elderly people, who are a part of the risk group, while another VERY large part of the risk group can isolate themselves, still would be enough to motivate a lockdown.

It's getting so incredibly unreasonable, everything will be impossible if you put an endless price to every second of a human life.
What clicks me about Kubernetes is not about orchestration or zero downtime or scaling,... I can just use Kubernetes on 1 node for all of my services.

What matters is the declarative approach of Kubernetes. It's like the first time I learnt about React: declarative renderering/deployment based on state !
When I developed this I was very much thinking of using this to run one-off compute heavy tasks, e.g. compressing a video, running scientific computations or rendering something in Blender. You would just rent a VM for a few hours with the hardware you need, set it up in a few minutes, run your job there and delete it again.

Thie first paragraph is incorrect. A hub will "blast packets to all interfaces that are connected". A switch, even a dumb one, still switches packets. Broadcasts and frames addressed to unknown destinations will flood out all ports, but not unicast frames with destinations currently in the MAC table.

It is true that an attacker could flood the MAC table, spoof their MAC, etc, after compromising a layer-2 adjacent host and use that to manipulate traffic flows. That's somewhat disturbing, but no Customer backup data should be hitting their network outside of SSH anyway. I think the potential is more for DoS than compromise of confidentiality or integrity.

I really admire rsync.net's simplicity, but dumb switches give me the willies. I feel blind not having per-interface counters, at the very least. If nothing else, I'd like to be able to reconcile the counters coming from my OS interface with the switch in troubleshooting scenarios.
Same here, I basically learned how to write POSIX-compliant Shell with the help of ShellCheck. Shell is not a difficult language to learn but it definitely has its oddities and the different flavours (Bash etc.) only add to the confusion.

What people don't always expect is the immense portability that POSIX-compliant Shell offers you. This thing runs on pretty much everything.
Well in a traditional frontal collision avoidance system you rely on the very same mmwave radars and cameras (even a stereo pair in the Subaru system). Yes, L4+ self driving needs more for performance. A Tesla has more sensors than normal FCA/LKA system implementations; so IMHO the blame in this specific case is more likely with software than hardware.

Just found reference to it on David May's page, which is suitably retro html for the Inmos architect who created occam and did all sorts of interesting things like formally prove their FPU implementation (before formal proofs for that sort of thing were common):

http://people.cs.bris.ac.uk/~dave/transputer.html

'The B0042 board contains 42 transputers connected via their links into a 2-dimensional array. A number of them were built following a manufacturing error - all of these transputers were inserted into the packages in the wrong orientation so were fully functional but unsaleable. I had them all (around 2000) written off for engineering use and we built the B0042 'evaluation' boards! Many of these were given to Southampton University where they were assembled into a 1260 processor machine and used for experimental scientific computing. Inmos used them in a number of exhibitions (in a box of 10 boards - 420 processors) drawing Mandelbrot sets in real time!'

Sounds like the machine I remember, a 420 processor machine in a box in the late 80s was quite something.

>The benefits far outweigh the problems and it's one the of the more minor changes we are going to have to make to the way we live if we re going to have any hope of curtailing climate change.

Surely this position is not absolute? Indeed, the most effective way to eliminate human-induced climate change is to, well, eliminate those causing it.

In your view, can any attempt to curtail climate change be justified? I'm genuinely curious and mean no disrespect, should you feel such.
You can turn this around though. It's harder to teach the AI, sure. But once you've taught it, it stays taught. With humans you have to deal with the continually renewing stream of young people who are new to driving.

> And "add some partial blockage by a vehicle in the lane, retrain the AI, and then redeploy it" isn't a proper answer... wouldn't that be a different model AI that would need to be validated again?

You're the one adding unnecessary constraints here. If the validation process harms more than helps, you don't do it. In all likelyhood the correct validation process is something lightweight that can be done quickly for simple changes.

This sort of training process is likely to be a continuous process, they're always ingesting new data, trying to learn how to drive better from it (and keep up with how patterns in the world change), and therefore continually deploying new models. Because that makes driving safer overall. Not a "this bad thing happened so let's figure out how to put out a bugfix for it".

My license has been suspended for not renewing the registration/smogging disassembled vehicles used as parts donors in project cars.

I had assumed the reasonable thing would occur; the plates would expire and become suspended, a non-issue for a chassis sawz-alled to bits and sold for scrap.

Nope! Not in IL. While receiving a benign speeding ticket on a road-trip out of state, I learned my ostensibly valid DL was suspended, and what it feels like to be handcuffed, arrested, and processed at the station.

Why had IL suspended my DL? Well, I was forced to stay out-of-state and appear in court that week, eventually learning why IL had suspended my license to defend my innocence: the disassembled vehicle hadn't passed a smog test that year. They suspended the vehicle owner's DL for this nonsense. The judge in the state I had to defend myself in didn't even know what a smog test was. It was a clown show across the board, with my pocket footing the bill at every turn.

A suspended license is not a reliable indicator of anything other than bureaucratic fundraising by the state.
