I imagine you’re getting down votes because your comment seems to only consider complexity in EV’s and doesn’t talk about the complexity found in ICE vehicles.

If you take an existing ICE platform and adapt it for EV’s of course it’s going to end up more complex from a control perspective. You’ve taken the existing complexity of the ICE platform and just strapped all the EV stuff onto the side.

Perhaps if you could talk about the mechanical complexity found in the ICE powertrain and compare the to an EV you might get a better response.

The number of high load mechanical components found in an ICE powertrain is huge. Components that are forced to operate under an extremely wide range of temperatures and loads, which just don’t exist in EVs.

When ICE cars fail it’s almost certainly a mechanical failure. Software based control systems generally don’t fail, they either work or they don’t. You don’t get “wear” in software.

Now control systems mistakes can result unnecessary wear in mechanical parts, and premature failure. But having fewer mechanical parts significantly reduces the surface area for control errors.

content etc. Also, even the title of this video becomes confusing: this video will now show up for someone searching for Wigner's famous speech with the same name, plus the title is factually incorrect, clickbait is reasonably effective, not unreasonably.

Directly from the study you have referenced that is the topic of discussion here [1].

"All samples came out to be negative for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 genomes with the exception of March 12, 2019, in which both IP2 and IP4 target assays were positive. This striking finding indicates circulation of the virus in Barcelona long before the report of any COVID-19 case worldwide."

As for your assumption of my personal beliefs. You could not be more wrong, nevertheless, I am responding to your statements which are directly refuted by the information you yourself have provided.

First, the study didnt exist, then the text didnt say what it did say, then it did say what it said, but they didnt mean it. One by one your comments have been, well baffling to say the least. What exactly is your agenda? What are your political biases? Its like having a real life conversation with Tucker Carlson.

Steam games that target Linux usually do only target Ubuntu. They work on other distros because Steam bundles a ton of libs internally so that the games use those instead of the host OS's. It's essentially the same situation as if each game was a Docker container with an Ubuntu base image.

Also, given the few host OS dependencies that Steam needs are 32-bit libraries, I find it better to not install 32-bit packages and pollute my OS by just running Steam in an Ubuntu container anyway.

I've previously heard of a cheap Chinese electric car that seems very kei car-esque to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ytqr8T05OU

As the video says, the car can be so cheap in part because of many safety features it lacks. I assume therefore that such a car would have to be more expensive in the Japanese market. But the space seems perfect for electric vehicles.

When I lived in Japan I would visit friends of my host families and even up in Sapporo (a relatively new city of only ~200 years) I would see these "old" houses and be fascinated by them (maybe this was down south in Hokkaido in Hakodate, I don't recall). One time my host mother explained that some of those houses are designated at the second tier of "important cultural property" (the first tier is even more restrictive) which meant they could not do modern style improvements to them by order of the government. It was really fascinating to see these houses falling apart and the people that owned and lived in them being unable to repair them to preserve the cultural heritage of Japan. I shudder to think how my fellow Americans would react to such laws.

If shotspotter had not existed, I think this man would have still been charged with the murder. It seems beyond dispute that the victim was shot in the car of the accused. The case against him was seemingly lost for two reasons: shotspotter's fuckery, and the police not bothering to collect other evidence in a timely matter. It should not have been hard for the police to determine whether there was a gunshot fired in the car, or whether the passenger was struck by a bullet fired from outside the car. There was really no reason for shotspotter to play a role in this case, it could have been cut and dry but they went and muddled the whole thing up with their janky tech.

If current EVs don’t support your use case, your use case is in the minority. Average daily round trip commute in the US is ~32 miles. You’re never further than 100 miles between Superchargers in almost the entire country, and that will only improve as governments support rapid charging station deployments.

If you’re hauling horse trailers or routinely commuting 150+ miles in a day, sure, EVs don’t meet your needs yet. But for most, they already do. There are several taxi services that have Model Ys in their fleet, so even high utilization use cases are served by existing EVs and related infrastructure.
>I happen to enjoy the regular 15-20 minute stops

It's alright when you can guarentee your stop is 15-20 minutes. But it will probably look a lot different when there are 2x, 3x, 10x more EVs on the road. Imagine being in line when everyone has to charge for 15 minutes?

The richest man in the world now controls the idea of your identity.

I will give crayons to every angry third grader willing to color all over that idea until it is unrecognizable.

Real cryptography based identities with derived keys are possible. PGP allows this today. With some organization you could use PGP with twice derived keys for various identities that can be corralled under a single identity. Again, all possible today for the aspiring entrepreneur. What I think will be infinitely tricky is creating an organization that is international to manage them without influence. They can't be beholden to a single nation or continent. Being able to be influenced by any nation would need to be a P1 bug in the corporate architecture. You'd need a stupidly secure facility with offline data gaps, the kind that are proposed for things like SCADA.

Anyway, I've thought about this problem a good bit over the years. I'm interested in others thoughts.

Thanks for taking time to write this explanation. Note that the bias you mentioned about your experience with GANs is not what I would call systematic bias. It is random noise. And it may even be racist in nature. Yes, you may keep on being biased in your own way day in and day out, which makes it systematic for you, but we won't need an entire field of ethical AI to study that.

The example you gave about credit score, and the theme generally, is very well understood for a very long time. That's something we teach to stats undergrads early on. That's just one source of bias in the data, btw. There are numerous other data biases and tons of research exists on that. Even on one method of data collection, such as survey data, there is a huge literature on reducing the bias.

> you'd have to work really hard to make an inherently racist architecture.

That's precisely where my confusion comes from. If someone makes this racist architecture, it is not a systematic bias that anyone cares about. It's a rogue model. In fact, in many cases, this could be outright illegal. For example, if someone designs a credit scoring model to deliberately leave out one group of people based on their gender, ethnicity, or religion, that's not going to fly with regulators.

So anyway, I still don't have an example of a systematic bias that is not caused by data.

I can understand why the idea of more structured, object-like input and output is appealing, but after using PowerShell for a while, my take is that it's much harder to manipulate objects into a consistent format than it is to manipulate text. For instance, if you want to compare Azure DNS records with DNS records from a Windows server, it's a huge pain because Get-AzDnsRecordSet and Get-DnsServerResourceRecord return objects with different structures. Same problem if you want to pipe output of one util to another which expects slightly different format of input. More generally, text is great for loose coupling; structured objects, less so.

> Prosecutors said ShotSpotter picked up a gunshot sound where Williams was seen on surveillance camera footage in his car, putting it all forward as proof that Williams shot Herring right there and then.

The police used the altered location of the shot to imply that the defendant's story about what happened wasn't true. Which was that another person in another var at a different location did the shooting.

They used the altered location data alongside video evidence to imply the defendant and the victim were alone at the shot location and therefore the defendant was the only possible suspect.

I’m still confused. What do you mean when you say the “system makes sure?” I have the same issue as before - I don’t think of systems as having intent or “making sure” of anything. That might be a metaphor around a mechanism or feedback loop - what is that mechanism?

There has been more interest from modern programming languages and modern compiler developers in good diagnostics in two ways: 1. The earlier you report the problem, the cheaper the fix and 2. The better the diagnostic the more likely the programmer's fix is appropriate to the actual problem they had.

I agree this is great news. I actually had to write MS SQL for the first time last week and it was disappointing but sadly expected to have it respond to a common but not technically-standard SQL syntax I'm used to with "Syntax error" as though somehow that's helpful.

One of the major motivations for concepts is to allow better error messages.
