Pay an attorney experienced in such matters.

If the startup cannot afford to pay an attorney, the startup is under-capitalized.

Under-capitalization is a reason to question the startup's viability and by extension the urgency of legal documents that are designed to protect ongoing businesses.

Or to put it another way, if the startup can't pay for an attorney, terms of use and privacy policies are not urgent and are of only slight importance. Because they only help when a lawyer is arguing in court.

The simplest privacy policy that might work is not collecting private information. The simplest terms of use is make something that provides a clear exchange of value such as money for services.

Good luck.
Definitely a huge market for a startup then! ;-)
>This really isn't beta grade software, as it isn't feature complete as the failure scenarios in the video clearly show.

I think it depends what they actually are trying to accomplish. This is Beta for a glorified cruise control overhaul; not a beta for promised RoboTaxi.

Musk/Tesla tend to talk about RoboTaxi then slip seemlessly into/out of 'but today we have low engagement cruise control!'.

Fair bit of hucksterism.
Every system is corrupted by those willing to leverage the most from it.

I honestly don't recall if it is against policy, and I've never witnessed a case where it has come up, but I wouldn't say it is "allowed". I'd say the same thing about emoji use really. Email is business related correspondence and a certain amount of professionalism is expected.

How many transactions/day does Bitcoin facilitate? How does it compare to traditional currencies? Has it increased over the last year?

Also, how many transactions/day does the second-most-used cryptocurrency facilitate?
Not trying to take away from your main point but isn't Arduino Italian?
There's a good chance a bush plane dropped them off. Not sure what you're asking though, are you interested in trying to get out there?
Split a company's research from its production and sales departments into two organisations, and one licenses its patents to the other.

You have transformed a structure where one entities invents and produces to a market structure with one where those are separate roles.

You like the former and abhor the later. But from the outside, this change is absolutely meaningless. It's no different than any other make-or-buy decision.

(Note that "sells a license" is exactly the same as "patent trolling".)

All these feelings you people have are based on the idea of "superficial" patents that aren't "real innovation". Which is, indeed, a problem. But it has nothing to do with the above. Assume some actually useful patent, and these objections fall apart.
They are selling miniature replicas of the products as "toys" for 40$.
This is a fundamental problem with ML and current generation "AI" : it only works in scenarios where a statistical win is acceptable (e.g. ad targeting). It is useless and often worse than useless where you want absolute correctness and false positives are highly problematic (e.g. spam filtering, writing code, not running over pedestrians).

> some of their friends could see other poker players cards

Anyone who plays online poker for money is naive. The temptation for the programmers of such systems to cheat has to be enormous.
I'm not sure about you, but the more experienced I am, as a developer or "builder", the smaller things I end up making.

For instance, I launched a bunch of games that are, frankly, more fun to watch, than to play (e.g. an All-hands meeting simulator: https://rafsters.itch.io/all-hands) or
little tools this one https://sonnet.io/posts/reactive-hole/ (it's stupid, completely replaceable, but somewhat adorable).

I come from a family with 4 generations of carpenters. It's a profession more similar to software engineering that most engineering jobs I can think of. The main difference is that in our domain so often the results of our work just don't feel real.

If you're in this situation and this frustrates you, either build something small that people would use OR go ahead build something useless, but intentionally.
My understanding is that if you follow the rule of using generator functions (creator of the channel is responsible for writing and the closing) it’s impossible to write to a closed channel.

When would that pattern not be useful?
Yield is an important measurement though. Nutrition is a fine metric, but some things grown in permaculture are not nutritive. They may grow nitrogen-fixers, shade plants, fodder, etc. These don't provide 'yield', but reduce outside inputs.

The most important thing is to change how you think about yield. Yield/acre needs to take into account how much outside inputs are involved (trucked in fertilizers, mechanical inputs, etc).

It's absolutely correct to measure how we're doing. It's tricky when the units of measurement are not the same. It's harder still where there are so many types of soil/climate conditions and so many types of output to measure. But we can't just ignore output if we want to improve or give prospective adopters some idea of risk (they are literally betting their farms on it afterall).
"Netbooks as a technology for the most part"

I know people that created books and websites on a netbook, who got though school and business meetings with them. I never seen that for a smartphone.
Americans are generally more suspicious of state propaganda and mass psychosis, yes.
Man that's a bleak view of games if you're ok with them being relevant for a couple of years so you can get brief entertainment. Might as well train an AI to constantly spew images and sounds that you like at you and call it a day.
In retrospect I see it as ahead of it's time. The idea of "place a computer readable label on things to send you to a special website (etc)" is still alive and used today in the form of QR codes. The hardware problem ended up solved by convincing everyone to carry a computer in their pocket and image recognition, but the central idea is pretty much unchanged.
For anyone who follows Obsidian, have they approached the idea of spaced repetition or perhaps plugins for spaced repetition?

A big thing i want in a note taking tool is Spaced Repetition, but not _just_ that, more like a way to manage how much information i'm going to try and keep sync'd with my actual brain.

I'd love this system to monitor how much time i'm dedicating to it, and how much knowledge i'm able to retain in my brain based on available quiz time and retention rates (which would vary, i suppose).

I've often debated writing it myself but so many of these note taking tools achieve 90% of what i want, but miss the retention phase. I want to pour my knowledge into Obsidian, i just want some additional tools to help keep some subset in sync with my brain.
My Note 8 phone has a charge battery notification at 15 percent.

I just replaced that phone, and yes with another one because I happen to like that model a lot, and my old one did 1500+ cycles with respectable battery capacity remaining. I replaced it due to a cracked screen, not battery trouble.

My general experience has been to avoid fully charging the battery and leaving the device on the charger, plus avoiding high demand use under 15 to 20 percent adds very considerably to longer term battery health.

This has played out across a number of devices, lenovo laptop, various phones.

After, say a few hundred cycles, it's very important to avoid taking the battery below 5 percent or even to zero. When that happens, the battery capacity is reduced every time, and it's by a significant amount.
Didn't netbooks as a category just merge into cheaper laptops? I doubt they were unprofitable for the manufacturers.

I'll bet the children in Africa etc with the OLPCs used them for several years. They can't switch to a MacBook.
On that note, if I went in to say a restaurant and put audio recording devices underneath all the tables and streamed all the conversations to a hard drive, that would also be perfectly legal since it's no different than eavesdropping from the next table.
DeFi is terrible. I spent a lot of effort digging into the DeFi ecosystem but it's either scams or pointless. I've seen one or two interesting ideas like e.g. these decentralized hedge fund things, but 100% of them are money losers relative to just holding eth - and that's without factoring in all the wasted money in gas fees. DeFi is DOA.
I still pirate movies sometimes because, due to HDCP, none of the streaming services work with my computer. Unfortunately, all the DVD rental places are gone now, too.
I don't think counting products that never made it to production really counts, through...

I backed the Peachy Printer and was sad to see it fail (and definitely assume that large parts of the creator's explanations were not entirely true), but a failed $600k Kickstarter is not in the same league as an eight- or nine-figure company producing something that turns out to be completely stupid.
No they're plastic toys that resemble the startup product. Not the actual startup product itself. It's simply an item to collect for novelty, not for any real purpose.
Every child in the Uruguayan public system got his/her laptop, I don't know at a global scale but it gave access to the internet/technology to thousands of children that would otherwise wouldn't have. So calling it a total failure seems off to me.
I'd recommend Three Essays on Sexuality over Interpretation of Dreams.
JPEG XL: The Next Generation “Alien Technology from the Future” by Jon Sneyers
Well, shareholders are getting fat, so its all good, eh?
This makes the assumption that the CO2 chemical experiment is done in a shared manner. That's not the case. In fact, very few organizations run the experiment to an extent that impacts the global climate. Businesses are certainly aware of climate change, who isn't at this point? The issue is that those businesses care FAR more about profit than they do about the future.

You could say "Ok, it's the consumers responsibility to vote with their wallet!" But that doesn't mean anything. How can I impact agricultural CO2 emissions at the grocery store? There's not label on the food goods which says "This is a high CO2 emission product". And even if I did that, how can you expect the general population to do the same? We can't even convince the general population that wearing a mask to slow the spread of a respiratory illness is a good idea. We can't even convince everyone that a vaccine doesn't "magnetize" you.

What's worse, this sort of thing would very likely backfire. Sure, everyone that thinks climate change is an issue will say it's a good to ok move. However, those in deep denial about climate change, the 40% of the population we need to convince it is a problem, will see a move like this as being "liberal cancel culture gone mad!"

If I'm going to poke the outrage machine, I'd rather poke it with measures that are effective at addressing climate change. Carbon taxes and subsidies for green tech and farming.
DVDs use PCM (LPCM?) which is lossless.
That’s something that I can understand. But is a university’s “normal license” for homework different? Don’t they have a right to keep your work?
The idea of a yearly license to operate a coffee shop, that requires renewal and payment, is pretty absurd in my opinion.

A peer with average drivers would probably be fine.

A peer with average drivers and doing completely nonsensical things every now and then is basically an average driver on their cell phone though and the verdict on that is that it's not fine.
I don't think this comment understands the reality of how great the US's food producing abilities are. US producers could add more new land to its agriculture output than all other countries combined. All that new land is in areas that already have infrastructure for that land to be productive. US farms continue to increase the productivity of their land. In some locations in the Midwest, farmers are able to increase their crop cycles.

The effects of climate change are probably a net gain for US agriculture, I don't expect the fight to come from them.
I've been waiting for a crash for years so that the parasites looking to "get rich quick" leave and the discussion can return to technical matters like privacy, scalability, and ease of use instead of Elon Musk's latest cryptocurrency-related tweets and the coin value. For the past ~8 years the discourse has been significantly focused on the latter.

not as far as I know. I've been using it for over a year and think that there's a free way to do everything on your own, and the devs and mods even help out on Discord for people to set it up. You can pay for the Sync or hosting service, but everything is optional since there are plenty of other options.
It's really not - that's just marketing.

The reality of the blockchain is that its guarantees only extend to what can be wholly represented and encapsulated on-chain. That's why only abstract/fiat currencies have emerged after 14 years of research as viable use cases. The boundary between the chain and reality is where these guarantees break down.

The blockchain cannot guarantee the reserves in Tether's bank account. That's not transparency, that's the illusion of transparency. That's much worse than intentional opacity IMO since it throws people off the trail.
Such crude trolling. Build a new house without a permit and see how that freedom feels.
but not anyone's OK with spending $1250 upfront

I will address your points here, but you should really review your own comments for the bad faith discussion you accuse me of doing.

> Sorry, it's probably not your paper. But it's as far from folding laundry as you can go. I don't even see the simulated robot folding simulated laundry anywhere yet and even "simulated cloth" is a joke - the simulation itself (of the behaviour of cloth) is not even close to the real world. Simulating a robot opening a simulated door might get your paper published, but simulating a robot folding simulated shirts won't even get you a simulated paper

You are right that you never said "cop out" but I am just summarizing your words. Your complaint is stating that RL doesn't tackle training in the real world. In some way, RL is "neglecting the responsibility of training a real physical robot". That is the definition of "cop out". To which I have already openly admitted that the responsibility of training a physical robot, while the long term vision, is not the intermediate goal at the moment.

No, there is no comparison between a simulating chessboard and the real world physics. All I am stating is that one just needs the simulation to be realistic enough. The problem is not the fact that it is simulated. If your complaint is that the physics engines are not good enough to train RL agents, that is completely orthogonal to the field of RL. Work is being done by these folks as well. Again, it also ignores every self-driving company who do use simulated virtual environment to train/test their algorithms.

Again, I am not overplaying or underplaying anything. I have yet to make any claim other than "RL people know we are very far from anything robotics related". I don't know how that can possibly be construed as overplaying.

If you feel that the LASER paper accomplished nothing, then we just fundamentally disagree. They did something that no one had ever done before in the field of RL. Is that not the definition of original research?
The use of the term "autopilot" is particularly cute here, because any pilot who's ever used one knows that autopilots are dumb as rocks, can't really be trusted, and don't do nearly as much as non-pilots tend to assume they do.

"You go that way, at this altitude, until I tell you to do something different" is what most of them manage, and they do it well enough. Some of the high end ones have navigational features you can use ("Follow this GPS route or VOR radial"), and in airliners, they can do quite a bit, but you still are very closely monitoring during anything important.

"In the middle of the sky," yeah, you've got some time to figure things out if George goes wonky. During a Cat III ILS approach down to minimums, you have two trained pilots, paying full attention to just what this bit of computer is doing, both prepared to abort the approach and head back into the middle of the sky with an awful lot of thrust behind them if anything goes wrong. But in cruise, there's just not too much that requires an instant response.
Yeah I think I read heli or something similar in the article. I'm not thinking about the exact same point but maybe same territory with the same geological formation but with accessible roads so that ordinary people can take a look.
What about stress?

Elevated cortisol level induces over-eating; moreover, increases craving for high-sugar, high-fat foods.

The big change in human behavior in the last 2 decades is that now people consume more information that leads to depression, anxiety and stress.

The watching is the sticking point. It seems this could be ameliorated if the automation could be 100% trusted to know when it needs an intervention.

Solving for that, even a system that was extremely conservative would be useful, as you are completely freed up when it is operating, even if that is only 20% of the time.
> doesn't seem like you go back and change things to be like Java

Java is like Go in that regard. That's why you have to use ConcurrentHashMap instead of HashMap for instance.
As I said elsewhere, it was pretty successfully implemented in Uruguay, where every child received one.
There certainly can, however crypto has a worse wealth distribution than the US dollar and any banana republic. Freeing the poor from the tyranny of wealth inequality was one of the flagship features the community has been touting for a decade. The claims do not align with reality, and are likely antithetical to the goals of a functioning, efficient, equitable society.

The world would be worse off with such a distribution, IMO.

For the record, I'm pro wealth inequality and income inequality, so long as its coupled with social mobility and a high standard of living for the lower classes.
This conversation comes up all the time when discussing JWTs, and unfortunately I think the issue is usually way overblown:

1. I don't believe there are any real security issues regarding logout if JWTs have a sufficiently short expiration time.

2. The reason this issue comes up is because of compliance audits, who demand that as soon as the user logs out, that the supplied token becomes invalid. However, if the JWT is adequately discarded from the client, the fact that the JWT is still valid for another ~5-10 minutes or so is only a security risk if the token has already been stolen. The fact of the matter here is you really aren't protecting against a new attack vector with this "must immediately revoke tokens on logout" rule.

3. Despite my beliefs with #2 (and I'd love to hear an argument why this isn't valid), good luck trying to convince an auditor about that fact, who often love finding minor/mundane issues to justify their existence. So you'll still need to maintain a small blocklist, but the data in that list is usually very small (most users never log out these days) and can often be replicated in memory to each server.

2012-2013 bitcointalk forums had a lot of smart people talking about technology and building stuff. There was also dumb stuff, but I think I'd probably call it a "era of highly educated and high minded people"
Yes, but that is a very low bar.
All of my stuff is completely decoupled from the internet. I publish mqtt messages to a broker running on PC in my basement. Any interaction with the internet, such as sending messages to my phone, happens from there and I am 100% in control of where traffic goes.
