* W7-X has a large major radius because the scaling laws work out favorably for large machines but there have been very few large machines built to continue pushing out the domain of the empirical scaling laws. Afaik there is not a strong relationship between minor radius and risk of disruption.

One of the selling points of stellarators is that they can be operated without risk of disruption, but W7-X has done campaigns that push its operation to disrupt. A machine with dimensions similar to W7-X could be made with higher field magnets.

* Yes, higher field means larger machines are not needed to hit the same performance metrics, pushing down the minimum size (and cost) of a reactor. REBCO (HTS material of choice) is quite an expensive material to procure and work, so even modest sized research devices are more expensive than Uncle Sam is willing to gift right now. Private investment into SPARC is changing my opinion about what the future of fusion research will look like.

* The details of working HTS into confinement coils is an active area of discussion. HTS coils will be operated at liquid helium temperatures but won't stop superconducting until liquid nitrogen temperatures. The critical current limit decreases as temperature increases, so the risk of quench is still there when operated at near-boundary conditions. One thing that is discussed is whether to insulate the HTS tape or not. Conventionally, coils have insulation between the windings. In the case of superconductors it isn't strictly necessary. Superconductors are embedded in large copper jackets. When the core is superconducting the copper acts as a virtual open. When the core quenches the coil turns into a one turn copper ring and can dump all of the stored energy through the leads quickly without boiling cryogenics because the inductance is much lower.

High field magnets are useful, just not to many areas. MRI is the singular commercial application and they are more interested in lower cost (ie being able to run a superconducting magnet without liquid helium) than they are a higher field. NMR is the other big (but actually quite small) application for high field magnets. There are commercially available NMRs today with fields of 50 T.
If you want to, you can send me the listing privately. I'm a level something Google Local Guide and I've had wrong entries / info ( like family phone numbers showing up on wrong places under Google Maps listings) removed directly upon reporting them, presumably based on my reputation.

It's counter intuitive because it's obviously false as stated: f(x) = 1 + x for x in R. They left out the main assumption of the theorem, namely that the domain of the function is compact, and gets mapped (in)to itself.
Yes? The company should have crashed, it would've been better for the market to reimburse early buyers and let small start-ups develop a better-quality product and have Tesla (or Amazon, or google, idc) buy the new startups. Dyaqua could've really use the money and a Tesla-Imerys conglomerate could already have given us affordable rooftops with Tesla's scale economy and powerwall and Imerys knowledge.
So ... fusion reactors are only 50 years away now? :)

The reason to default to that is because a principle of our legal system is that people are innocent until proven guilty. On top of that proving someone guilty requires going beyond reasonable doubt.

> Because most physicists are ultimately interested in predicting the results of experiments with actual numbers. And that demands the use of coordinates.

Of course, at some point, you need numbers! But there's no reason that those numbers need to infest the whole computation; you can de-coordinatise as soon as possible and re-coordinatise as late as possible, and in between you not only can but must think in a coordinate-free fashion.

(I am a mathematician, not a physicist, and am not presuming to tell physicists how to do their job—this isn't an argument about whether they should do things this way. I'm just pointing out that they could, and that it seems not only possible but advantageous. But of course long-established knowledge of what actually works in physics beats this tyro's guess at what could.)
Yeah, "it is unverified or untested or unproven" seems to be a very hard concept for "black and white" brains to process. People keep following up "it is unproven" with "well then it must be false".

> The fact that you can randomly manipulate random noise until it matches the hash of an arbitrary image is not surprising.

It is, actually. Remember that hashes are supposed to be many-bit digests of the original; it should take O(2^256) work to find a message with a chosen 256-bit hash and O(2^128) work to find a "birthday attack" collision. Finding any collision at all with NeuralHash so soon after its release is very surprising, suggesting the algorithm is not very strong.

SHAttered is a big deal because it is a fully working attack model, but the writing was on the wall for SHA-1 after the collisions were found in reduced-round variations of the hash. Attacks against an algorithm only get better with time, never worse.

Moreover, the break of NeuralHash may be even stronger than the SHAttered attack. The latter modifies two documents to produce a collision, but the NeuralHash collision here may be a preimage attack. It's not clear if the attacker crafted both images to produce the collision or just the second one.
That isn't a great analogy because the expectation for electrical appliances in a boat/camper/cabin is much lower than it would be in most homes.

I had a battery fridge in a caravan (trailer) and it was very small and pretty rubbish, certainly not suitable for home. However, for a short stay, it could keep some basic foods cool enough to be safe.

As others have said, although it is fine on paper, as soon as you start talking about significant power, you are talking lots of amps, which means more risk of overheating and fire, potentially significantly larger (and therefore expensive) cabling and all of the switchgear that can support a few amps AC will not support the same current at DC so all your switchers are larger/electronic. There is also an issue of RFI which could be significant if you are switching high current DC loads.
Ok, good to hear it's not just me.

We've recently been aquired and the new company uses Outlook. I can't use the desktop app as it constantly asks me to go through the full authentication process.

Content creators use YouTube due to its ability to sell ads, but I am not familiar with the alternatives to know if they are capable of handling the amount of people and ads YouTube serves. It seems like a more difficult problem than alternatives to email/maps/drive/search.
My bet is on cost. It's the stated reason not to use lidar and it only makes sense to apply to radar (not knowing the cost of a radar sensor compared to camera - please share if you do).

Elon may not be a great engineer but he is a genius businessman in many aspects so that would also make sense.

I think for most/many European companies, especially those that are potentially handling PII, there are regulatory concerns with using US based hosting/companies.

My employer for instance has put a ban on deploying anything new on AWS/Azure/Google Cloud until legal issues have been settled after Privacy Shield was invalidated.

Everything new right now needs to be on EU/EFTA data centers run by EU/EFTA companies. This essentially means self hosting since most clouds are owned by US companies.
That is not how it works, a large number of people are convicted on eye witness testimony from a single accuser.

It isn't just that. afaik, a much larger issue is related to capacitive and inductive losses of AC. Even on the railways, an adjacent 25KV overhead line can induce a few hundred volts into the adjacent "dead" line, which is why they must be earthed before you can work on them.

For the most part our blood supply has good protection for blood born illness (between rules that prevent the high risk from donating and testing). That wasn't always the case.

The Collaboration Curse (2016)
But you'll end up getting a whole new vocabulary when you join a new industry. What you did at uni was practicing learning new vocabulary and models.

I would say as far as something like math appears to be foundational, what it really makes you practice is precision thinking: this thing matters, this other thing doesn't.

One thing that might convince you is that when you look at math the subject itself, how many people who were good at applied math like calculus and PDEs actually know anything about mathematical foundations like ZFC, Gödel, and that type of thing?
Accessible Multistep Forms in React: Introduction
That’s definitely possible (the function should take two elements in F[x], not in its dual space), the problem is that there are strictly more linear functions on the set of polynomials than there are polynomials. For example you will have trouble finding a polynomial representing the “evaluate at x=1” linear function F[x] -> F, since such a polynomial would have to have infinitely many terms.

So every polynomial could be represented as a linear function on polynomials, but not every linear function on polynomials is itself a polynomial.
And what do you do for the 6 months of the year when there is not enough solar to heat water to a suitable temperature?
I wasn't sure of your comment was being sarcastic or not.

In any case the article clearly suggests that it's a systemic issue due to using too few sensor modalities in conjunction with too little training data. Hence it's not restricted to firetrucks, but many new, unlearned situations.
Yeah exactly, a failure that is different than a human failure is going to be noticed, even if it's not more common.

It's probably hard to intuit, and no one explicitly thinks about this (except AI engineers and researchers), but emergency vehicles are parked in a way that is "obvious" to human drivers.

Every situation is different -- how much shoulder there is, etc. What the visibility is. The driver unconsciously makes a judgement call to be visible (to humans). There is no way they can judge how an AI is going to view them (which changes from time to time, and across AIs).

So the only solution is for the AI to err in the same way that humans do, or not at all.
If this is true it is more evidence of a broken legal system.

But the legal system is not fixed. Culture changes and the context in which we interpret laws change. There might not be precedent for getting a number wrong in a phone book, but we barely use phone books anymore, and market mechanisms don't work. I agree with you that it might be difficult to prove standing (the persons whose photos were used were likely to have standing, I think, but IANAL), but it _is_ important that we bring these cases to court and try to gain a new legal precedent.
> if your original vector space is infinite dimensional then the natural embedding into its double dual is not an isomorphism

Ok, so this feels like the crux of the matter. So how does the fact that V** is not isomorphic to V make the tensor product construction a more general concept than the linear function construction?

> Undergraduate degree is ~90% generic learning ~10% specific learning.

If you mean generic learning about a specific field then I tend to agree. If you mean "general learning" at all then I disagree. It's because one learns generically about a specific field that it allows them to learn quicker later on in life about various topics within that field. I'm proof of this given that after my CS degree, I wanted to do a coding bootcamp and was immediately hired to be an instructor, I self-taught myself that program within 2 weeks and then taught it to others (with a non-CS background) for 3 months. Moreover, the quality of learning is different since I noticed I was way quicker at building stuff out or diagnosing bugs compared to the best students in their final week. The reason why was simple: I've written a lot more code and experienced a lot more bugs than they had.

> You also learned logic, planning, typing, troubleshooting, project management

Partially agree, partially disagree, in many cases I knew those things and merely applied it. I've learned logic, planning, typing and some forms of project management at elementary school (e.g. a touch typing course, basic if this then that logic, etc.) and high school (calculus, fairly advanced statistics etc.). There were more advanced versions in some cases (e.g. logic, certain forms of planning), but in most cases I relied on skills I've learned during elementary/high school. There are a lot of presentations given before someone enters at university.

> You would (should) outperform a history major in many of these tasks, and should be at a disadvantage in many others.

Don't know, I think some might be pretty good at typing, certain forms of logic and perhaps project management as well.

FWIW IC3.gov is how you start the process of reporting pretty much any interstate crime that plausibly originated on the internet. If you call the FBI about a scam that you found online they tell you to use the forms on IC3.gov.

As with many things that touch on legal matters submitting paperwork in this manner can be tremendously helpful. Having a police report, or having submitted a complaint to IC3 and contacting a companies legal department (mentioning that the report has been submitted) can provoke a stronger and faster response than you might get elsewhere.

In addition because Google took action to remove the panel previously there is a stronger argument to be made that they know what they are doing is wrong. So not only do you have multiple parties who have been either impersonated, misrepresented, or harmed you have an actor that arguably has admitted fault and demonstrated the ability to remedy the situation.

The principle is the defendant is innocent until proven guilty, NOT that the accuser is making a false accusation.

There is a reason the verdict is "not guilty" instead of "innocent". After a not guilty verdict the legal system still does not assume the accuser was making a false accusation.
