You can just limit the review to footage that is being requested or used in accordance with a valid legal request and leave the rest in cold storage. If the footage is irrelevant to any legal proceedings then there is no reason for anybody to ever see it. Applied reasonably this would incur at most a modest multiplier on the current cost of a LEO or lawyer looking at it for their actual purposes.
That's true. I suspect part of the problem there is lack of liability and therefore lack of willingness to pay for security. They're just going to lose the best security engineers to Google and Microsoft.

No, it doesn't. Body cams and vehicle cams make it much harder to hide abuse, because when abuse happens and the footage can't be found that can be made evidence of abuse in and of itself.

You have to take into account the partial derivative of a change, so to speak. The absolute gain is much higher than the absolute loss because privacy is basically zero for the government if they want to abuse you.
The idea that each category we can come up with to lump people into should be totally evenly distributed across all streams of work or else something must be wrong has always seemed weird to me.

If there is something actively preventing you from being in or sticking around in a profession you want to be a part of, I'm all for breaking down those barriers, but the idea of "over-representation" seems to go in the opposite direction. It seems aimed at keeping or kicking people out.

> That is crazy fast training speed.

Is it? If we ignore compute requirements, how long would a good algorithm take to learn something like balancing a quadrupedal robot, based on real-time feedback to its outputs? It is a simpler problem, but drone flight software based on learning, can re-learn how to fly a quadcopter after something like losing a propeller and a sudden shift in weight distribution, in a few seconds.

A robot could be built that learns how to adapt to something like a limb being lost or added or half its weight shifted to the other end. It could probably learn an approximate optimal to move under those conditions in just seconds, as well. Though, I suspect that foal might actually be nearly as adaptable. Adult horses, or humans... not so much. We have many overlapping models of how to move, probably. I would take only seconds to adapt to half my weight being added on my shoulders, in the same ballpark as our best robotic systems. But if my left leg grew four inches it would take me a lot longer than the robot to learn and internalize the best way to move again. I could barely keep up with that when it was just a few inches a year when I was a kid.

The base S is 85k (depending on the week, it changes so much). It has the same performance as the model 3 performance (top end 3) and more range. I think the s is a much nicer car, though 25k is a lot more. The S was as low as 70k at one stage, if it was 75k I'd say the extras are worth it over the 3.
> that we require a much lower initial learning rate.

The way I understand it is that is not so much required as not selected for. We could certainly be able to walk at one day old if evolutionary pressure made it necessary, but it prioritized other aspects in our cognitive development to survive so we don't. It's not as if we say "oh, horses can walk early and therefore are incapable of rational thought" we evaluate them on their own merits.

I don’t think it is complicated at all. At least not based on the examples you gave here.

Of course the video will be admissible as evidence. It’s a lot better in fact than relying on the officers memory.

I’d much rather innocent people are exonerated based on video than that guilty people go free because a police officer happened to miss the evidence of a crime.

What are we even talking about here?

If you are being stopped by police, you are generally already not doing that voluntarily, so saying you need consent to record audio or video in such a situation strikes me as weird too.

Without intending to endorse the wording, I suspect what's being communicated might be something related to the difficulty for an attacker to derail your system by cheaply predicting hashes. IIRC, the standard Java runtime HashMap implementation was susceptible to this at one point - an attacker could easily and cheaply force all values into only a few buckets.

The idea being, you might not care about actual cryptographic security but instead only the feasibility of some sort of cheap online collision attack.

Hitting this kind of wall/ceiling in my own career. It sucks. I know there are certain types of responsibilities I just can't or shouldn't take on as I can't guarantee consistent enough performance. By the same token, I also know what it is I'm unreasonably good at. I'd very much like to just be allowed to operate purely to my strengths dipping in and out particular streams of work when I have bandwidth to do it. When and where I've been able to do that it's always been really, really good. When and where something is lumped on me that I can't handle on an indefinite basis it always eventually ends in non-linear behavior due to straying too far outside my safe operating envelope.
Charles Schwab. I’ve been a customer for decades.

The good: Similar to vanguard and fidelity on most dimensions which are also mentioned in this thread, but they’re also a bank so you can have a checking + savings account with them and all your finances are then in one place (IRA, brokerage, banking all in one). Their checking accounts offer free ATM withdrawals from any ATM world wide and when traveling they offer the actual exchange rate when withdrawing cash. Also, they have excellent customer service in my experience. Their research offering on equities is decent. Also $0 commissions on on trading equities, ETFs, most bonds and CDs.

Down sides in my opinion (YMMV): options trading is meh on Schwab, but most people shouldn’t be dabbling in options anyway. Their fully managed offerings have 0% fees, but the funds they pick internally are somewhat higher fee Schwab funds so watch out for that. You might be better off managing your own set of mutual funds/ETFs rather than going with their robo advisor if that’s what you’re after. Sometimes they do maintenance on their site on the weekends that spans beyond the midnight hours. Their mobile app is very functional but some features are slow even on an iPhone 12. Few physical branches if that’s important to you.
I don’t have a security.txt but that is a good idea thanks, will implement.
Worth noting that this isn’t mandating more housing, it’s (proposing) removing an artificial constraint.

This constraint is the land use equivalent of taxi medallions: the chosen supply cap is arbitrary and it hasn’t evolved in decades.

And as with removing the arbitrary cap on taxi supply, not everyone is going to like this change. Taxi medallions were a great system for those who owned them. The externalities were borne by passengers and other potential drivers.

The reason congress included this provision is because of the widespread misuse of public funds than comes along with for-profit contracts for charter schools. Along with the Gulen schools mentioned below, another example are BASIS schools.

"Basis contracts with Basis.ed to provide the educational services at its schools. The public school company gives 71 percent of its tax dollars to the private company, according to a Basis audit filed with the state Charter Board.

Basis.ed then pays its teachers. But it doesn't use all the Arizona money for teacher pay.

According to an agreement between Basis Schools and Basis.ed, the Blocks' private firm keeps 11.75 percent of all school revenues — state, federal and local tax dollars — for management fees." [0]

BASIS teachers were underpaid compared to otherteachers in the state.

While the schools themselves may be good (charter schools can be exceptionally selective in the students they take/don't kick out), it reeks of misappropriation of tax dollars that should be used for educating children.

This does beg a question.

We are all familiar with the idea that low test positivity rates mean high false positives, while high test positivity rates mean low false positive rates.

Yet no scientists or public health officials are willing to apply the same logic and reason to Covid-19 positives vs death and illness.

Wonder why?

For example, if the US of A regularly has 2.7 million deaths per year, and 550,000 die with a positive Covid test this year, BUT, there are 35 million confirmed Covid cases and 35-140 million MISSED diagnoses, how many people did Covid actually kill?

The problem is that the majority of Covid cases are not tested and confirmed, which leave the question unanswerable.

But certainly the facts as they are known are disturbing to the narrative that Covid is a killer.

The terminology seems to be somewhat in flux.

If an inverter based resource has the right software and control scheme setup, it can mimick either inertia or primary frequency reserve. Although I think they're generally calling it all FFR (fast frequency response) now anyway.

When a frequency event occurs, the rotating masses of conventional generation arrests the decline in frequency for a very short amount of time (this is caused by inertia), and then the control schemes of generators respond to assist with fully stopping the decline and some degree of recovery (PFR or primary frequency response). After that, your secondary reserves of (regulation) help take it back up and then (spinning reserves) until frequency is back at nominal.

So, yeah FFR can be better than the conventional approach of inertia + PFR. Everything has to be configured properly (not any different than conventional resources, except FFR is still pretty new).
I think your post (and unless I misunderstand, your intent) kind of assumes far far too much context to be helpful. A job interview is a very specific set of conversations, whereas the function of a job at a company can have a very wide array of responsibilities that may or may not be related. If a person has a speech impediment/stutter/something like tourettes syndrome, that problem may only impede one's ability during a high pressure, synchronous conversation. Those symptoms may be totally mitigated by lowered pressure or asynchronous communication. To categorically say that someone that has difficulty communicating in high pressure, synchronous communication situations is unfit for "most jobs" is, to me, a huge miss. Especially now, where remote work is such a big deal, and so many conversations are just-Slack or just-email. If you can have a disagreement over Slack without causing adversarialism or frustration, you're far more valuable to a remote employer than someone that can communicate well over Zoom but poorly in text (I think).

I would say, if a person is able to write clearly and thoughtfully, and is competent at their role, they're very well suited for lots of jobs that aren't sales related. The meritocracy that gets touted so frequently (but is actually never upheld) should reward those that are competent at their advertised skills, right? If you're a really good programmer you should be able to find employment as a programmer, right?
Yes, my own words, but the worst of a cold and the worst of food poisoning (what OP compared the mild covid to) are, IMO totally different. The former is an inconvenience (headache, a bit tired, constantly runny nose), the latter is a totally debilitating state of never-ending vomiting and/or diarrhea. If you told me I was about to get a cold I would shrug, if you told me I was about to get food poisoning I would be dreading it.

There's no way we're going to come to a resolution of this discussion without additional data given our evidently very different experiences of what a cold is. All I can find is sources saying that colds are usually mild. But since this also called "mild covid", that resolves nothing.
Edit: tldr, Julia could use something with the ease of use and functionality of docs.rs, but built especially with Julia's typesystem in mind.

So after thinking about this, I think there are two things going on here. 1) it's actually the lack of browsable autogenerated API docs I'm frustrated by... I'm spoiled by the most excellent Rust docs.rs API docs, which give a great, quick, readable, comprehensive overview of what's in a package even if the maintainer hasn't made any docstrings and (2) rust has had this emphasis on usable documentation as a seamless part of the development experience for a while, but Julia is definitely catching up.

So I went back and checked and was happy to find that the JuliaGPU packages that I previously couldn't find docs for definitely have some docs now! In particular, GPUArrays.jl. There were also some astronomy packages I looked at had been rewritten with docs left hanging for like a year.

That said, in the autogenerated API docs for GPUArrays.jl, if there's a function with no docstrings, on JuliaHub it just shows a big yellow warning to the developer. I'd prefer if it showed some useful information about the types the function is defined over and its return types. I'd also love if there was some quick way to see a list of included types and functions, along with their type signature and even a way to view the code.

Really I think I'm just spoiled by the Rust community's amazing auto-generated API docs on docs.rs, which seamlessly integrate with examples and readme style docs. If there's a rust package I wanna use, docs.rs will give me a nice consistent, browsable overview of the code and I can usually figure out what's in there just from that, even if the package maintainer hasn't actually written any example docs or docstrings, just using info from the typesystem. It's so nice to be able to go to one place and see what's in a package, the traits, structs and function signatures, all alongside docs generated from docstrings and handwritten docs. Did I mention that this information is always in the same place on docs.rs? These aren't just "filler" docs, they're super usable.

Most Julia package docs are more freeform and I have to click around to find the API docs, and honestly I'm not sure if every package even has these. Whereas on docs.rs they're right there immediately with no cognitive overhead. Freeform docs are awesome, and I'm always excited when a package has lots of well thought out documentation, but it's no substitute for up to date, informative API docs that give you a solid window into the fundamentals and interfaces.

Julia has such a cool typesystem, I could imagine there are some interesting opportunities to use that to make the autogenerated Julia docs much more usable and informative.

As far as the comprehensive approach is concerned, I honestly don't think Julia is that far off, it's really a shift in emphasis and a streamlining that I'm wishing for. I can see that a lot of progress has been made.

Maybe it'd be worthwhile to consider hiring some of those ex-Mozilla people to help the Julia community get to the next level on this?

> Not getting the vaccine -> risk. Getting the vaccine -> smaller risk.

This is not a hard fact but a matter of opinion, mainly of trust. Everyone is entitled to have one, and to chose for himself. Coercing some (for example to have them vaccinated) in the name of solidarity and preservation of society may lead to resentment and even hate. This is dangerous.

My take: such crisis (pandemics) arise because too much people live in too densely populated areas, and travel too much and too fast. Those who chose to live this way are threatening others. In a mature human society we may let subgroups chose, each for itself, instead of coercing everyone into sustaining a single way.

Trying to solve such crisis thanks to some hack (here: mandatory vaccination) is at best a kludge. Do some really think that, given the current state of affairs, there will be no other pandemics, that some new ones will not raise the ante, or that kludges will always be adequate?

Agreed on all points.
The concepts of colonialism, imperialism, and military supremacy aren't anything new. What is considered "fair game" for thematic devices in entertainment seems to be based on temporal proximity to the subject matter and also simply what is currently deemed to be "tasteful."

If there was an as-successful board game based on conquering Asia and Europe as Genghis Khan, nobody would bat an eye. And yet Genghis Khan was responsible for actions that were arguably worse multiple times over than anything that occurred in Puerto Rico during the colonial period.

> “I think there’s a growing understanding that using historic colonialism in a sanitized fashion—omitting all of its wrongs—has its own problems,” Reuss said. “Even though you’re not depicting torture, rape, massacre, enslavement, and genocide in your game, you’re promoting a false narrative about colonialism, which covers up all of those terrible things.”

All these things occur and have occurred during war and we have hundreds (thousands?) of games about warfare that do not include these topics. Is every single one these games promoting a false narrative as well? I suppose he might agree. Regardless, I think it's infeasible to expect every game that uses colonialism or war as a device to have some sort of comprehensive moral indictment of the things it portrays.
