I remember a pretty similar dialogue that I had with a PM once, it went like this: PM: so what is your estimate for this feature? Me: 4 weeks to prod. PM: hmmm, that looks like a lot for a small task that is also very important for us, maybe you can do it in 2 weeks? Me: no, considering the amount of additional commitments that we have, I’m pretty sure this will be done in 4 weeks. PM: well, I’ll provisionally set the deadline to 2 weeks and then we can revise it. Me: whatever. 4 weeks later the feature is delivered to prod, nobody bats an eyelash.

The thing is most of the time these deadlines are totally artificial and simply a psychological trick to induce a sense of urgency. Moreover, PMs know that deadlines will slip and are prepared for this , they just want them to be slightly unrealistic so that you feel pressured (even better if you yourself suggested the deadline under their intent stare, then the pressure is higher).

> Why did Tesla decide not to use radar any more?

System redundancy in safety-critical systems exists for a reason. Either their engineering team refused to see this or they were unable to make Product/Management/Regulatory people see it.

AEB is quite finicky and needs quite a fair bit of calibration and mechanical alignment, still like the article says can suffer from false positives.

But although LIDAR is still prohibitively expensive it is possible to design ADAS that can integrate stereo camera, RADAR and long range sonar, that would at least give you three sources of data for some margin.

> What wavelengths do other cars' radars operate at?

The spectrum used for AEB in most transceivers is 76 GHz to 81 GHz (so between about 3.9 and 3.7 mm) some older implementations also worked at 24GHz i think.

The other replies explained this really well, but I'd add that the effect typically is dropping requirements which only seemed important at the time.

IF this was about water I agree with you. However it isn't actually about water it is about water heating. Hot water cleans better than cold, but it takes energy to heat water and that affects everyone (global warming). Thus less water is better.

There are also some water pumping and treatment costs (more energy), but they can be ignored as insignificant.

> but that's effectively the same argument as the hassle involved with switching off Gmail.

huh? There's a massive difference between those two things. YouTube provides discoverability for your content. Gmail does not. Besides the loss of existing viewers in a platform switch, creators would also lose a huge audience of potential viewers of their content both from recommendations and from search results. Sure, there are content creators who build up followings, but lots of people will get a handful of videos that become popular results for certain searches. Those come entirely from searches and "related" listings.

Further, changing emails doesn't require people emailing you to use a completely different client to do so.

>It is not obvious at all and requires calculations.

Heating water in a domestic setting on a gas stove is incredibly inefficient and you don't even need a calculator to know why - put your hand adjacent to the stove and feel the heat being lost. This is not a small fraction, it is significant unless you run the stove really low and spread that heat over a large area.

Now put your hand and any point outside an electric kettle and see how much heat you can feel. Almost none.

This isn't really as complicated as you're making it out to be.

Hmm. Tor onion addresses are generally super long and have a large random element to them, such as

facebookwkhpilnemxj7asaniu7vnjj.onion

where the "Facebook" part is there for convenience and may likely not be present for actual illegal addresses. As such, you probably won't be able to find a CP website unless you actively brute force the entire onion address space.

I don't know how the sharing actually happens, but I don't think a real search engine for the dark net exists. There are websites that try (Ahlia, I think?) but they are super limited in scope.

I suspect addresses for drugs and CP are shared person-to-person.

I don't think the problem is as simple as that. Sure flashy lights with reflectors confuse the current model sure, but can we consider that an edge-case and work from there? Also LED's flash too in a regular pattern too. I don't know though, seems like something that would have been accounted for as it's a pretty important part of driving awareness...maybe they didn't think people would want to stay on "full auto" when a police/Emergency vehicle is in the vicinity since you might have to do some sort of maneuver to get out of it's way. So yeah, I'll say it's an edge case for now.

Academic paper: "Engineering In-place (Shared-memory) Sorting Algorithms", Michael Axtmann, Sascha Witt, Daniel Ferizovic, Peter Sanders, https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.13569

To start discussion, I think it's interesting to note how I landed on this repo and paper. I got curious about Tim Sort, and some searching on HN brought up a 2018 story, "On the Worst-Case Complexity of TimSort", https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17883461. In the comments, poster lorenzhs has an excellent comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17884612) which points out IPS4o as a sorting algorithm that takes modern hardware into account.
I don't understand why your comment has been downvoted. I'm European and was wondering the exact same thing.
This happened with gas prices too. When they dipped too far the oil tycoons started screaming they weren't making enough per barrel.

Small amount of money != small amount of work.

One of the reasons food is cheap in the west is the automation, but the machines used for that automation are big and expensive, and only make sense if you’re feeding a lot of people rather than your immediate family. That leaves you with inefficient farming, hard work even though the $€£ cost is low.

A cheap home and a part-time job to buy necessities, letting you take advantage of economies of scale and specialisation? That can work, but it’s rare to find a cheap home with access to the labour market — where the jobs exist, you compete against those willing to work longer hours as a customer in housing market, and where you rely on remote work you risk being outsourced to someone willing to do ten times the hours for a tenth the hourly rate in the labour market.
Don't think that is enough by itself.

See my other post: agriculture water is not heated or treated. Thus cities use as much energy for their water despite only using a fraction. In all of the above water itself is not the issue as it isn't lost, just moved downstream until the water cycle (rain - which has always been non-uniform) brings it back.

NIF, remember, is funded by the DoD. It's not a civilian reactor research program: it's a device for testing fusion reactions in the lab now that the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty means that they're not allowed to test H-bombs out in Nevada.

This is not to say that it isn't fascinating and there won't be spin-off findings of use to the development of civil fusion reactors, but actual reactor research (e.g. JET, ITER, Wendelstein-7X) is all about magnetic containment for protracted periods (tens to thousands of seconds). And ITER, running on tritium and deuterium, is supposed to use 50 MW of heating power to create a plasma of 500 MW (thermal) for periods of 400 to 600 seconds. No need for a 500TW peak power input (actually much, much lower when you look at it in terms of megajoules delivered in a few nanoseconds).
> Google choose to associate write an algorithm to associate names and faces with zero verification. Then google choose to not provide any substantial way to appeal the algorithms ruling.

I disagree. Google allows you to take ownership of a knowledge panel and take control of the knowledge panel.

> You're trying to equate a reasonable choice to proactively manage risk with an automated system that has decided to not allow people to manage that risk. That seems unreasonable on it's face.

No, I am saying OP decided to take a risk. A calculated risk and now OP is letting others feel the negative consequences of OP's calculated risk. Even tho it seems there are multiple options available to OP to stop others feeling the negative consequences of their actions. Actions have consequences. OP took an action. This action has consequences. And now people are telling all Google employees to feel bad because a search engine behaves the way search engines do. The guess what is the info we want to see.

Let's stop worrying about OP and worry about the people who did nothing in this getting bullshit because OP is choosing not to do one of many things that would stop it from happening. You're either part of the solution or you're part of the problem.

You can't have it both ways. Malicious apps are going to abuse it. In order to avoid that there needs to be access control at the very least - Google maps could get whitelisted for example.

Many lawyers are willing to work for something like 30% of whatever payout they manage to get, OP (or rather the pastor) likely doesn't even need to pay for a lawyer, just convince one that they have a good case.

I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding of the legal standard is "reckless disregard for the truth", which seems like it has been met.

An entire legal team is not needed to litigate a simple case against Google, that's just not how the legal system works...
I guess the problem is that saying "tensor products are spaces of multilinear functions on vector spaces" is tantamount to saying "vector spaces are spaces of multilinear functions on vector spaces", which is simply not true: the second set is strictly smaller than the first. For example, there is no space of linear functions on a vector space which is countably-infinite dimensional: they are all either finite-dimensional or countably infinite dimensional. Said another way, if we're talking about 1-fold tensor products, it is not right to say "a 1-fold tensor product of V is V*", since V itself is a perfectly fine 1-fold tensor product.

In order to have V* = V for an infinite-dimensional vector space V, you need to redefine V^* to some kind of restricted dual, rather than defining it as the set of all linear functions. In the polynomial example, if we take the space of all linear maps g: F[x] -> F such that g(x^n) = g(x^(n+1)) = ... = 0 for some n >> 0, then this restricted dual is isomorphic to F[x] again. But the evaluation map g(f) = f(1) is not in this restricted dual.

There are more reasons why confusing a vector space with its dual is a bad idea. For example you cannot cook up a map V -> V* without extra knowledge, for example a choice of basis of V or something. There are many examples in abstract algebra where there is a perfectly good vector space V, and absolutely no good choice of basis for V, so trying to identify elements of V with V* is unnatural. We may still be able to speak perfectly well of vectors in V or V*, but trying to identify V with V* is still unnatural. A good example is V = (functions R -> R). I can speak easily of elements of V (for example, x + sin(x)), and of elements of V* (for example, f -> integral of xf(x)), but trying to figure out which element in the dual either of these corresponds to is hopeless. We're better off just accepting at some point that there is a real difference between a vector space and its dual.

Here is an article about the probably unavoidable downsides of fusion [0], from the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists. To summarize their points:

- neutron bombardment, the unavoidable consequence of the only realistic fusion reaction, deuterium + tritium, turns every known material brittle and radioactive; and can be trivially used for uranium enrichment

- tritium is almost impossible to contain, and requires fission plants to create - the fusion plants could theoretically create a surplus, but they would have to recapture essentially 100% of a very hard to capture gas (today they normally leak about 10% of the injected tritium)

- fusion plants need to be massive to be even close to break-even - the energy drain of the facility consumes a sizeable portion of the generated energy; most of this power drain is still required while the facility is not operating the reactor, increasing projected costs of running a facility

- ICF tech is very close to fusion weapon tech, so there is a massive risk for proliferation from there as well; MCF tech is not, thankfully

> meaning self-driving cars should have their own roads.

Or retrofit our roads with Machine friendly signals? Signs that can ping information to the car, other cars pinging information to the car...Those sound like cheaper alternatives and the models can focus more on the difficult problems/edge cases like overtaking and "oh human like dog is crossing the street" on the freeway.
> The state is the only authorized monopoly of violence and they should treat unproven and untrue as identical, and the only place where that decision is made is in a courtroom.

This is completely wrong. If the state treated all accusations as untrue prior to conviction, they would not send armed men to haul you to prison, bar you from release unless you can bail yourself out (or sometimes not at all), and not have a prosecutor charge you with a crime.

This is no petty distinction. In order to function in its judiciary role, the state in fact must distinguish between plausibly true accusations and not plausible accusations, and must treat certain plausibly true accusations as "unproven" but not untrue, and take steps to make sure the accused does not flee into another country or commit further crimes.

People shouldn't really have to. The phrase "self driving car" is a binary yes/no in common, regular English. I don't know if this is Tesla's fault or some committee's fault (SAE?), but it's really terrible marketing to call things "self driving cars" when they can't drive by themselves.

Cars shouldn't be allowed to be marketed self-driving, or autonomous, etc., until a driver isn't required.

There's no apparent trademark infringement here.

There is no confusion between your specific goods or services and those of The Lego Group, which is the purpose of trademarks.

Quoting https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics/what-trademark :

> For example, let's say you use a logo as a trademark for your small woodworking business to identify and distinguish your goods or services from others in the woodworking field. This doesn't mean you can stop others from using a similar logo for non-woodworking related goods or services.

Your trademark (without the name or border) is weak. See https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics/strong-trademarks for some background on what makes a strong trademark.

For example, even though I never did a graphical trademark search before, I found US trademark #90287353 as another example of using squares and "Triangles with one or more curved sides" as the interior of your logo does. It could also easily be done by the "Dots" toy.

Your entire trademark is a stronger one, but The Lego Group doesn't appear to be infringing on that one at all.

You could talk to a lawyer of course. But ... why? Let's say it costs only $1,000 to get Lego to change. Does it benefit you in any way?

This belongs in the straw man Hall of Fame. The stuck accelerator is the problem and crashes are the terrible symptom. You would compare how often Toyota's accelerators stuck compared to other manufacturers in bringing a class action suit, would you not?

Similarly, if the AI driver crashes in that situation in a similar (or even less) rate to the base rate (manual driving), you would likely not reasonably bring a suit.

Either way you should arrive to improve the AI, but the base rate does matter, and telling someone their question does not matter because you personally don't care about it is bullshit.

I don’t think this has ever been the case. Note that I have been involved with experiments on the NIF, but only from the academic side. The NIF typically fires 1-3 time per day, and I believe that this is mostly an optics constraint. We weren’t producing neutrons though, so YMMV.
