I know there is a do not editorialize rule but the original submission title “Nanostructure design enables new possibilities for e-paper in color” was a lot clearer.
I worked as technical support staff in law enforcement for many years before transitioning to knowledge work, and I assure you this very scenario (even without facial recognition oopsies) happens all the time, especially to people of color. It's one of the main reasons I got disgusted with the career and got out. People get arrested based on bad-faith tips, usually on a Friday so they can be held all weekend since detectives generally work banker's hours. If a suspect is in a holding cell they generally don't have access to a water fountain and must ask for water from jailers/guards who have already judged them as less than human and will "forget" to get them food and water. When Monday comes and the CID commander shows up, he will make the decision to cut the suspect loose because they never should have been detained in the first place, the detective(s) involved move on to the next suspect, and the cycle repeats.

It's disgusting and amoral and dehumanizing, and that's why I hated the job even though I had no direct involvement apart from running background checks and processing evidence.
> If it's the biggest possible reward that you can get, and you have an idea, why wouldn't you try to implement it?

Because it takes lots of work, risk, and sacrifice. If rewards are small (which, obviously, they would be in your scenario where people pool their money together to reward someone), then why take on such difficult task? I know I wouldn't be trying to do any business in your system. Many wouldn't.
Not going to lie but the 90 day UK notice period when you quit is a massive hassle. Yeah I get that it’s tit for tat - your company can’t fire you tomorrow.

But man, compared to the US where I can give notice, take my left over vacation and start at a new company all in 2 weeks, it does a lot for worker mobility.

Yes. And if you want to poll, POP is polling, and IMAP has both polling and immediate notifications.

> I'm not so much saying you're wrong as afraid you're right, do you have sources ?

Yes, in addition to alibarber reporting their experiences in Finland, the same is true for EU citizens in Denmark: https://www.nyidanmark.dk/en-GB/You-want-to-apply/Residence-...

Where you see that you can stay in Denmark provided you're a worker at a Danish company, a student, a self-employed person, have sufficient funds or are from another Nordic country.

So this is very much up to the EU country and Denmark really doesn't want to have people moving there (and the rules for non-EU citizens are even more restrictive).

So in general the EU freedom of movement is "freedom of movement of workers", not just anyone.
Make it part of google one. "Buy any google one storage plan and get google meet for free". At least then they can tie it to something people are used to paying for.
The solution is winning hearts and minds to convince workers to organize. In the past, corporate propaganda and improving living conditions convinced many that unions were a net negative. As conditions change, so too can those convictions.

But I don't think mandatory unions are a solution. Unions would have to be very popular for such legislation to pass. But if they were so popular, they would no longer need compulsory membership.

In general it is unions and organized labor that push legislation meant to help workers, so starting with legislation instead is putting the cart before the horse.

Fully agreed on the friction. It is quite annoying if you have a license, but it's not widespread at your company. The core restrictions are rediculous as well for such an expensive product.

I use it for things I need, but similar to you, I try to stick to other tools (Python for me) just to avoid the frustrations.

They can move a license fairly easily, but there ended up being some other annoying issues for me recently that made me want to wash my hands entirely.

A friend of mine was affected by this. Got an email this morning asking for email verification, another confirming successful verification.

> They promised to fix the economy, fight unemployment, fight back against the unjust Versailles Treaty, support families, bring political stability and make other countries respect Germany again, etc.

You're missing one component, which is that the Nazis took all of these (more or less) legitimate grievances and redirected them into the figure of the Jew. You're right in that this wasn't a result of some supernatural ability of Hitler and Goebbels, and that's the whole point. There doesn't need to be. I'm sure individual Nazis had similar thoughts as you do (this is just another motivational speech, these are decent campaign promises, etc). The precondition to repeating Nazi ideology is already present in normal psychology.
I don't understand what you're trying to say, the work day has already been successfully shortened to 8 hours, so why couldn't it be further shortened? Seems like a natural progression as technology improves, and this solution is extremely simple and also fair.

In Germany you have to have an address and submit it to the Bürgerbüro, that's all. But you can be unemployed and move from place to place in Germany, no problem, even to Flensburg. But you can't just (legally) move to up the border to Padborg in Denmark, since you need a residence permit and you only get that as a worker (or a person with sufficient funds).

>No, the implication is that we believe that these algorithms are non-faulty

I think that falls under OC's argument and it seems eventually solvable. Still, what you are pointing is a human bias. Humans have been taking similar unfair decisions without possibility for recourse or review since forever, so it would be interesting to have a review mechanism in general.
This should be used as a case study for bad UI in courses. You can even tell from just looking at it that it's nonsensical.
Obama spied on multiple journalists including associated press and fox news.

Obama's DOJ spied on Trump, his family and his campaign associates and unmasked them. He along with Biden also unmasked General Flynn. Kevin Clinesmith, an FBI lawyer, fabricated emails to get FISA warrants on Carter Page and spied on them. Clinesmith didn't even get any prison sentence and is going back to practicing law next month.

Adam Schiff published the phone records of the president's personal attorneys, a journalist, a fellow lawmaker, a National Security Council aide, and others.

As of last week, Biden's doj spied, unmasked and leaked Tucker Carlson's email to Axios.

So lets not be partisans and pretend that this is a Republican specific thing.
Webinar – Patents for Computer Inventions
NN-512 Speed vs. TensorFlow vs. DeepSparse – ResNet50 Benchmark
Here's an example for something as simple as a hobbyist using a metal lathe in their garage:

For a rough part, you can measure how much material you need to take off, do it in a few passes without stopping to remeasure, and you're within 5 thousandths of an inch or so.

For a shaft that is going to slide or rotate in a bore without too much force, you need to be within a thousandth or two, so for the last pass you will stop, measure carefully, and only take a little bit of material off at a time so that the cutting forces are low and there is less deflection in the tool to throw off the size of the part.

For a press fit (two parts are sized precisely enough that they can be pressed together with a hydraulic press and then never come apart), you need tolerances in the tenths of a thousandth of an inch. For this, you'll dust off your special expensive micrometer, and it's important to let the part cool before measuring, because the heat from machining can cause the part to expand and cause you to take off too much material, which would ruin the part.

So even for the same person on the same machine with the same material, the effort (and therefore cost, if you're doing this commercially) can vary quite a bit based on the tolerance needed.

I don't know aerospace, but I imagine the required tolerances require vary from "looks good from here" (seats in the cabin) to "must ride on a film of oil this many microns thick when spinning at 10,000 rpm." And the manufacturing processes can be anything from "intern with a saw" to "specialized metrology lab with most expensive machines in the world" depending on what engineering specifies.
They do indeed. And it’s difficult for people to figure out how to get the number down instead of paying more. Personally, I have iCloud sync entirely turned off, and just manually backup the few things I actually care about.
This is a double barrel idiotic question.

First of all, there is no other universes. More precisely, there is no way to know or even assume the existence of other.

Second, pi is a notion (generalisation) of human mind, and does not exist anywhere outside of shared culture. It is just a relation of two abstract notions.

Yes, other observers could come to the same notions and conclusions, but it is only a theoretical possibly.

One thing that was a surprise to me when I looked into this was that these changes to promote privacy (which seem pretty good to me) will also affect federated identity on the web.

Things like single sign-on are done with the same tech (cookies, redirects) that are used by advertisers, and in some cases are indistinguishable. This is a common use case, though of course small fry compared to the privacy vs ad tracking folks.

If you'd like to learn more about this aspect, here's a video from one of the Auth0 folks: https://identiverse.gallery.video/detail/videos/architecture...

(The video is from 2020. He gave an update at the same conference in 2021, but they haven't posted those videos yet.)

Ask HN: Auth0 changed their pricing and requires us to upgrade
Hello, fellow HNers.

We've been happy Auth0 customers since 2016. When we created the account and started to pay, it was clear on the pricing page that we can stay on the Developer plan for up to 50 000 active users.

They recently got acquired by Okta and changed their pricing, so that you need to buy the Enterprise plan, which is around $8000 / month / 50k MAU. It adds a lot of features we don't need. We could stay on the Developer plan, which suits our needs. If we could keep previous pricing it would be $1138 / mo / 50k MAU (it can be seen in Web Archive [0]).

For still an early-stage startup like ourselves, it makes no business sense to start paying almost $100k per year for authentication solution alone.

Our options include:
1. Migrating away from Auth0
2. Rolling out an in-house solution
3. Somehow force Auth0 to respect the previous deal

I'd love to get your opinion if there is anything we can do regarding option 3. Unfortunately, for now, Auth0 is not willing to move and only offers us the Enterprise plan.

Your reasoning seems a bit flawed.

If most of the money they skim off a business like this would be going back into the economy - if the owner of the company spent the money they accrue, would they still be billionaires?

There's an upper limit on how much you can spend. You can own a dozen private jets, a dozen castles, but you can't be on more than one at any given time. And, by not being on any given one for longer than a couple months every year, you can pretty much avoid paying taxes anywhere.
The thing is, Typescript is forced to make compromises because one of their goal is to "type the existing Javascript world". Depending on what you consider an "advanced" type system, OCaml and the likes (Hindley-Milner types systems) can be considered as advanced (for example compared to Go) but are way easier to understand and use than TS.

I remember that one of the arguments of Rescript (a descendant of OCaml made to be compiled to JS) was that their type system covers most of the cases with little mental overhead, and for the rest you have the usual escape hatches. However TS won in the JS ecosystem and now it's hard to avoid its complexity sometimes.

Complex types systems also tend to attract people that tend to built towers of abstractions and complexity because they can. It's a bit like pattern abuse in the OO land.
> Google's removal of third-party cookies from Chrome in the name of privacy was just blocked by EU competition regulators, because it would cripple competing advertising companies[1].

That's not what the article is saying. The referenced EC PR[0]: "Antitrust: Commission opens investigation into possible anticompetitive conduct by Google in the online advertising technology sector".

Nothing has been blocked. Restriction of third-party cookies is only one of 6 points that will be particularly looked at. This investigation may rightly so have launched at this or a later point regardless of third-party cookie restrictions in Chrome.

I think one of the communication challenges in this broad discussion is what is a "finance" person. Several people refer to them as people in Accounting (accountants) when I think they really mean Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A analysts). Within most Finance organizations there is a big difference. Accountants (particularly early in their career) focus primarily on the past and properly describing it in the general ledger following accounting rules (e.g. GAAP / IFRS). FP&A analysts (should) focus on forecasting the future, then looking at what happens and describing why it differed from their forecast (variance analysis) so they can make a better forecast next time.

I agree with you that it is unlikely accountants will learn SQL/Python/R. They are tied to their ERP and Excel. My hope is the FP&A analysts will develop the SQL/Python/R skills to enable the better/faster development of complex models to forecast.

>The product that would've solved the problem (and then some) was IBM's TM1

I have not used TM1, but have heard many good things about it. Today I hear more people discuss Workday's Adaptive Planning than any other product in that class. Unfortunately most are still creating their primary forecast in a spreadsheet, then loading it into the TM1 or Adaptive which then has additional rules to build out the forecast.

I agree that using these types of products increases transparency and speed.
