IANAPhyicist but if I understand what’s being said correctly the amount of energy necessary to create the warp bubble in the first place, would require converting something roughly the mass of Jupiter. So you’d twice that to “come back”. It sounds much more like surfing a wave that something that get’s turned on or off.
No, the meter is defined (as c times a certain number of seconds).

Wow. As if some hacker is playing against the researchers, removing the backdoor from all the most studied systems.
My cynical opinion is that Copilot will be most useful for people who write junk code. They will be able to write more junk code faster.
How to Digitize Your Business
Without arguing whether your premise is even correct, the difference is that in this crowd, people know Apple's walled garden exists. Perhaps the fact that you never "own" a Tesla is less set-in of a fact.
By the time it works well enough to be useful, we'll all know about it, perhaps as soon as 50 years ago.
We… already have? Drunk driving is grounds for license suspension, heavy fines and jail time in (I’m pretty sure) every US state. We may still have drunk drivers, but it seems odd to suggest that we aren’t doing anything about it. Cops, judges and juries take it super seriously. If you get caught drunk driving in America: Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect $200.
>Krav Maga is the martial art that I've always thought of as actually useful for self-defense

i'm not big on martial arts or even mma but for some reason i've seen this argument in various places often enough that i've also seen the appropriate response: if that were true then all of the most successful mma fighters would be krav maga experts. in actuality not a single one practices krav maga. the proof is in the pudding.

It is the confidence in being able to defend oneself that leads one to avoid having fights intitiated with them by virtue of how they comport themselves in a relaxed unthreatened manner.

To top it off, training in something like muay thai will get the kid a great headstart on leading a fit lifestyle. Never done an aerobic activity more tiring or sweat inducing.
If it were actually an issue people cared about as much as they claim they care about it, it would already be solved. European laws are different possibly because Europeans actually do care more than Americans.

40m doesn't seem at all surprising if you consider the height of a water tower built somewhere with higher elevation than most of the town. My house is 20m lower than the base of either of the two nearest water towers, at least one of which is ~75m tall. A few years ago, the town completed migrating one of the outlying areas with lots of new development into their central pressure zone, resulting in an increase by 45psi in those neighborhoods.

Pressure reducing valves are used anywhere the pressure going into a home is above 80 PSI, and those are a lot more common than homes needing their own booster pumps.
I would doubt the groundwater contamination at Moffett Field would migrate inland. Groundwater in Mountain View moves in the direction of the bay.

The groundwater contamination in Mountain View proper comes from the many companies that manufactured semiconductors and other electronics in the '50s through the '80s. Many of which did a poor job disposing of the chemicals they used in electronics manufacturing.
Collision with an object in the road should be a collision claim anywhere in the US that I’m aware of. Maybe he’s confusing the two.

> I had an overnight update install itself on my sole Windows machine the other night. When it rebooted it refused to let me use my own computer until I obtained direct permission from Microsoft giving them my email address.

This is not something that Windows does. Ever.

What do you mean by "obtained direct permission from Microsoft giving them my email address"? You're clearly not talking about logging into a Microsoft account so I'm struggling to understand what you're referring to.
Yes this is more often called self-supervised.

Note that most sample pairings, especially for images, is done through augmentations currently, so the implicit labeling you're doing is still weak on priors.

Of the methods mentioned in the article, BYOL (and even more the follow-up SimSiam [1]), have the weakest assumptions and work surprisingly well despite their simplicity.

Being able to send messages faster than the speed of light grants the ability to send messages to yourself in the past. [0] If you can send messages to yourself in the past all manner of causality goes out the window.

First of all, it gives you the ability to solve NP-complete problems trivially.

Step 1: you receive a message from yourself from the future. It explains the problem, gives you a potential solution. Let's say you ask yourself to solve boolean satisfiability, gives you the problem statement, and then a potential solution. You check the solution: If the possible solution is correct, you send yourself an identical message. If the solution is not correct, you send the next possible permutation of the answer. So if you sent yourself the possible solution TTFTFTTTFTFFTTTFTF, you send yourself TTFTFTTTFTFFTTTFTT. If there are no further possible permutations, then you send yourself a statement saying that the problem is not solvable. You've created a time paradox; a future in which you send yourself an incorrectly solution is logically inconsistent. The only consistent universes are the ones where you send yourself the correct solution or not-solvable, and all other universes (starting with the one where you sent yourself the message FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF) collapse into the valid one.

No chance. The battery is loaded with sensors. Any charging is going to stop immediately if the temperature gets too high. Even your cell phone has battery temperature sensors built in to the battery pack.

People get all sorts of repairs done all the time. What makes a Tesla so special? Ever had your brakes replaced at a repair shop? Somehow the world doesn't stop turning and all the liability issues you speak of don't seem to be a problem, yet brake failure would be very bad.
How to Get Ivermectin
Produce grown regeneratively doesnt cost more to produce mostly because of the lessened or eliminated chemical inputs. That doesnt mean that regenerative farmers arent getting a premium for their product. But, that is more the demand warrants a premium than a higher cost to produce.
> Trias shared one story that karate had been born in a monastery in China, where a wandering Indian master named Bodhidharma noticed that sedentary monks were growing sickly and devised the martial art to cultivate their strength.

Interesting to see there is no mention of "kalaripayattu". Kalari as its famously shorten [1] have about 2000 years of history and is used with both weapons and no-weapons. Bodhidharma was said to have left from then Tamil states to China.

> then there is the weaker threshold where these theories rule in that they should be taken as serious explanations for the alleged “advanced technology” demonstrated by UAPs

No, it doesn't really do anything to weaken the threshold.

If humans discover a method of warp travel which is then validated by peer review, this does not do anything to increase the reliability of claims made by the US Air Force concerning the existence and performance characteristics of UAPs.

The reliability of the later claims are limited by the fact that there is no independent observation and verification from non-military sources, and due to the fact that former USAF employees such as Richard Doty have claimed they were hired to fabricate and provide false information to independent UFO researchers as part of a domestic counter-intelligence operation.

That all-hands simulator is fantastic. We once worked together and have attended some of the same all-hands meetings. Your game is about as painful as the real thing, which makes it even more hilarious.
They're not all bad. My current favorite is the Firebeetle from DF Robot. At $6.90 a piece, comes with a JST 2.0 connector for a 3.7v lipo battery and, more importantly, runs using 10 μa in deep sleep easily. (Measured on multiple boards). Finally, is well documented and has great support from the supplier.

they don't; they have multiple lines which don't change much generation to generation.

a casual observer might think that they can't pick a design.
Do you rent most of them? Because that is the crux of matter, if the guy owned the car, hell I'm all for them doing what they want, and fixing how they choose, and I think Telsa should legally be required to provide the manuals, software, and within reason make the parts available.

But this case is, that the guy is renting the car, and Tesla wants him to fix to their standards, and he's trying to pass of this fix, which you have to admit is questionably, and they didn't agree to it.

In this case, I'm not sure how right to repair would make any difference.

And when your motor is going to only last 30k miles, you can probably get away with a lot more, as opposed to a fix that is expected to last 200-300k.
Apple is, arguably, the largest tech company on earth. Their behavior has a significant impact on earth and on the market. And they are actively hostile to the concept of repair. Why wouldn't we criticize that?

I do criticize other problems with our consumption online and in my published writing. I am not making this critique because it is "fun or hip to be anti-apple". I believe the consumption patterns of people in the USA (like myself!) are literally unsustainable and we must change our outlook on engineering, production, and consumption to be more ecological or we will keep on destroying the natural world until there is nothing left.

I also want to do the environmentally friendly stuff in a way that is economically beneficial for people. So when Apple quotes $1200 for a repair that could cost a person $50, I worry about what this 2+ Trillion dollar company is doing to the average person, and how this mindset among corporate executives towards consumer gouging affects our world at large.

Their behavior is actually hurting people. They could improve without even making engineering changes to their designs. Let us not go around online forums making excuses for people who abuse consumers for profit while also generating unnecessary e-waste.

That's all pretty much ass-backwards. It'd be wildly inappropriate and unethical if a city councilman could somehow sway the settlement of an estate, which is the province of the court.

Getting things moving in city hall's bureaucracy is in the councilman's remit, as is improving the state of the bureaucracy to prevent further problems in the future. They might not be the ideal person to handle anything in particular, but they should sure know who to talk to, and they should make time to do it.
Have a look at Tasmota. I already run a boad with a BME280 sensor. The ESP32 port is even more featureful, it includes a Python like programing language called Berry.
Ohh yah it’s too big :(
This post's title is clearly wrong.
1-2k is a bit tough for testing the water. But above there is another $50 one. One wonder what is the difference as $50 is very manageable!
> Are you seriously now ignoring that this whole exchange has been about you claiming shipping molten salt to the other side of the world in vacuum insulated ceramic coated oil tankers to make steam to turn turbines is a viable way of exporting energy?

No, I still think it will be possible. Power stations will use molten salt instead of NG and CL now, and they wont have to replace all of their existing systems that convert NG and CL into electricity through steam turbines…

> I've seen some disingenuous discussions, but this is something else.

Yeah its something else, for some reason you are unable to comprehend the possibility of something being (or the scale of such) and chose to ascribe it to dishonesty… nothing dishonest about me thinking based on the research thats being done in many areas wrt theoretical and live systems that the above will not be possible any more so than appealing the notions something not being possible even within multiple universes (which remain firmly in the realm of untested theory)…

Luckily possibilities aren't limited to such ways of thinking… nor to the work that's being done now to build toward such a future.

Meh, that legal precedent is pretty weak. They have to sell you parts for 10 years and are held to some basic standard of warranty.

It’s 100% legal to make it a complete PITA to repair a car both in the cost of labor and parts. Italian exotics have been doing it for decades.

> “There are Western fantasies about every martial art,” explains Sánchez-García. “Karate is laden with mysticism and stories about secret cults, which are part of the stereotypical vision of ‘the Oriental.’ Films, in particular, spin fantasies of superhuman heroes, an 80-year-old man who can defeat ten assailants with his bare hands.”

This "expert" seems to think that Westerners invented wuxia.
Point of view means coordinate system, or reference frame.

If I am stationary and measuring you flying past me in a relativistic train, I would measure you in a coordinate grid say, centered on myself. You may be watching me from your train and doing the same, but from a reference grid stationary with respect to you but moving with respect to me. Even if we both agreed on identical measures ahead of time, your measurement of me from your reference frame and mine of you from my reference will be off from a measurement we do ahead of time in the same reference frame as a calibration. However, that difference comes out in the wash through the magic of the Lorentz Transformation. Using the Lorentz Transformation, I should be able to negotiate transforming a measurement I do of you in my own reference frame to what it would look like from yours and you should be able to transform yours to mine, through which we'd both come to the same numbersassuming we're in spacetime that shares the same general degree of curvature (same gravity). This can even be generalized to arbitrary degrees of spacetime curvature. I.e. if your relativistic train is racing past a black hole with a near tangent intersect, and I'm stationary with reference to the black hole centric reference frame but further out in the system, as you blast through the high curvature part of your trip your clock may seem to de-sync from mine. This too, however, can be mitigated through copious amounts of math I don't get for more than half an hour after looking away from a text book. I just know if I ever have a problem to solve that involves hitting that book again, I have either made some terrible or awesome decisions in my life.
I'm similarly not into MMA, but I wouldn't think it's a good system to determine real-world performance of a martial art. Most people aren't going to be pitted against high-level fighters in a ring; they'll be out on the street. It comes down to why you're learning the martial art, and to some degree, what your threat model is.
Or 7) FTL is possible, but the amount of energy required is so insanely large it doesn't matter. The paper says it takes energy equivalent to "four orders of magnitude smaller than the solar mass", which is an absurd amount.

This reminds of an interview I read with Donald Knuth about the P vs. NP problem. IIRC, Knuth said he believes there probably is a polynomial time algorithm to solve NP problems, but the constant factor will be so absurdly huge (e.g. Graham's number) that it could never be run on an actual computer. I've heard layman claim that if P=NP were proven, then it'd suddenly spell the end of encryption relying on NP problems, but it's entirely possible that it'd have no practical impact. The constant factor is analogous to energy requirements for FTL.
> But the ACLU

Sure. The ACLU probably won't get involved, but the reason is not that the guy has no case. He clearly has a case.
The street effectiveness of a MA is a function of time spent sparring, something that is prevalent in the arts you mention, in addition to coverage of standing and ground game. Strikers will have just a brief window of opportunity before grapplers take them down. On the other hand, even super effective grappling art like BJJ becomes pretty useless if you face two assailants.
There's enough hacks you can do on the 83/84 without hardware gutting tricks. Even in plain old TI Basic. You can easily automate most of a HS curriculum and make an unbeatable tic tac toe program, no internet needed. Its honestly the first coding experience I ever had.
Funnily enough, the writers of ST:TNG had this idea too. The main computer of the Enterprise-D was huge (9 decks tall) and generated a subspace field so that optical processing ran faster than light.
Maybe you have more flaws than you think mah dude.
Ah yes I forgot Muay Thai… that’s the real deal for sure.
Maybe because MMA is a sport and not an actual life or death combat? I'm sure if they allowed things like throat jabs, eye stabs, crotch shots and immediate joint dislocation upon grapple we'd see a lot more krav maga techniques.
Or already lived in Montana ;)
To train to win a fight you need sparing. Full contact sparing in boxing, kickboxing, or even karate has dangers. A practitioner has to work up to full contact sparing in a controlled way. And even then there is risk of brain damage. I'm not up to date with the latest science, but I wouldn't risk my child's brain on something as unimportant as winning a fight.

On the other hand, with grappling sports like wrestling, judo, BJJ, you can start sparing the first class. And the risk of brain injury (I assume) is less than every other contact sport. So your child will get more time sparing. Which would translate to better real life fighting skill.

In the end, by being in some sort of combat sport your child will probably lose interest in winning fights on the street or playground. Every time they show up to class they are defeating others and being defeated. It loses its emotional charge and they don't need to prove themselves to random people.
and if they're the one doing it?
This is the framework: https://dropbox.github.io/dbx-career-framework/

- Why do they have 4 SWE levels?

- Why is there no Senior SWE level?

- Why is there no Junior SWE level?

It seems like IC1 = Intern, IC2 = Junior, IC3 = Developer, IC4 = Senior. No idea why they're not named closer to that.

Also, do people think that these role descriptions are actually helpful? I find them extremely vague and generally unhelpful in determining if I'm performing at a particular level.
Is this an age thing?

I’ve been surprised a number of times by people not being familiar with this format, but they were only a year or 2 younger than me. (I’m 25)

It’s a nice format for thinking about things, so if people stopped learning it, that seems unfortunate to me.
I've learnt a lot of characters and words using flashcards in Anki. When you're reading books about Rust code, it's more passive than producing the sound that the character makes and then checking it and marking it right or wrong.

Even native speakers should check what they type, and if they want to guarantee accuracy they should read aloud what they've typed to slow themselves down. It's not a handwriting-specific thing.
