That already exists - the term is "capsule endoscopy" if you want to find out more. But -- it is a big pill to swallow. A smaller and better camera could both make the experience better for the patient and improve results, so this is still a good step to improvements.
Interestingly, the second person pronouns went the same way -- we dropped the second person singular in favor of using the second person plural exclusively.

The data of the study doesn't reflect these conclusions to be honest. The most simple one, that women engage in far fewer numbers explains all observable effects in my opinion.

From my experience its something you just very quickly get used to.

Many ballroom dance moves are very difficult to perform correctly with any distance between the bodies (a quick Vienna Waltz really relies on a shared center of gravity).

The thing to note with most proper ballroom posture is that the dancers are usually looking in opposite directions which I think reduces the intimacy aspect significantly.

It is part of the process of learning the dance form itself. Even in something like sensual bachata, you learn which parts of the body are "safe" and which are not. For example, upper back okay lower back not.

In Kizomba, the partners are pretty much always in a pretty close embrace. Kizomba is impossible to lead without a contact at lower ribcage/upper belly with the partner. In any other setting, this would be a pretty intimate position, but in Kizomba it is not. Learning to be comfortable with it is part of learning Kizomba.

Ask HN: What do people think of the user/customer interview process?
I ask because I went through this process many times in my previous business, and the process was just incredibly complex and time-consuming. Our process went something like this:

1. Finding suitable users
2. Scheduling back and forth
3. Preparing for interview
4. Conducting interview
5. Analysing results

Now don't get wrong, the insights were useful, but the amount of effort you put in, related to the insights you get out just don't seem worth it.

Indeed the last time the standard calling convention was stack-based was 32b x86 environments (“cdecl”) due to the dearth of registers, and even then there were various register-based compiler-specific or internal “fastcall” conventions.

And because AMD64 doubles the number of GPRs and requires SSE (as well as doubles the number of SSER), all AMD64 calling conventions are register-based (the official AMD64 ABI uses 6 GPRs and 8 SSER, MS has a much more limited 4 GPR/SSER mix).
Missing the point how? It sounds like you are looking for some form of agreement that is not implied.
Interesting. For two reasons. In the many years that I developed software this was known as the producer/consumer problem [1]. A name that is somewhat (to me) more expressive than back-pressure. But that's just my opinion!

What's different now, as the article points out, is the growth of micro-service architectures. Effectively creating a lot of tiny producer/consumer problems across the solution space.

Sometimes, I'm glad I don't write code anymore, but only sometimes :-)

GeoWorks: The Other “Windows”
Ghibli has always been synonymous with Miyazaki and Takahata. I think it's fine for the studio to fade away or disband after the two founders exit the stage, their legacy will endure.

Goro's story is tragic. By all accounts Miyazaki is far from the perfect father, to put it mildly, and it's difficult enough to live up to the reputation of someone like Miyazaki even under the best circumstances. The only example I can think of where a son matches the reputation of a 1st rate artist father is the Scarlatti family. Although I think Goro has redeemed some of his reputation with Poppy hill.

Speaking of Shinkai, his Children who Chase Lost Voices is the finest Miyazaki/Ghibli pastiche I have ever seen, and very underrated. It may lack the emotional depth of Miyazaki's best works, but then that's something Miyazaki himself sometimes failed to do. As a homage it certainly is more than adequate.

No. Not only does "trend" not imply "new" (X rising from 10 at t = 0 to 11, 12, 13, 14, ... year-by-year is obviously a trend and clearly doesn't imply X was ever 0??) but I in fact quite explicitly said that the recent trend is "people pushing for everyone to use it more". Notice I did not say "anew", I did not say "for the first time", I said more. You're putting words in my mouth by reading it as "new". In fact the entire point of the comment was to point out that it is not new but that there has been a trend of it becoming more prevalent.

This setup can be used for good or bad. It can be used to for getting subsidies, it can also be used to funnel money from the non-profit to the for-profit, or to put everything which is for-profit on the for-profit, or to market itself non-profit while the main thing is the for-profit. There's examples of each of these, but I don't know whether it would apply here.

There is a theory of bubble universes triggering creation of new universes.

In that model a randomly sampled universe is relatively young, resulting in probability that you are born in that universe very high, which in turn results in high probability of being the early civilisation in that universe.

But more down to earth, is just looking at how intelligence evolved on earth. The intelligence evolved on top of the primitive survival mechanism. Mechanisms that promote violence and cheating. Those are keeping us back like a chain and ball from evolving as a civilisation, as a matter of fact we already nearly wiped ourselves few times. We are at the brink or civilisation collapse due to global warming and yet do almost nothing about it.

If we are average civilisation then those are short lived violent affairs that tear themselves to pieces before they can self sustain, or make any impact on the universe to be noticed by others.

> the strategy is not just to make objectively good moves, but also to give your opponent a chance to make mistakes.

That's not true in classical chess, making sup-par move in classical in order to throw off your opponent is a loosing strategy.

That's why rapid and bullet formats are much more interesting, because those moves are viable. In those formats aggressive play is considered advantageous. In classical you will bounce off a hard wall defence with disadvantage.

Current games are described as most accurate games in history of classical chess. Those guys are like machines in this time format.

I think so too. Recent results are clearly ML garbage.

The reason Google isn't explaining it is because they can't explain it. They don't know why the ML is returning the results it's returning.

Yes and no. Some language features can make it incredibly difficult to optimise. I know the JRuby folks had all sorts of fun trying to make method dispatch fast in the face of "well, this method definition can be changed at any time, arbitrarily often, including during execution of the method itself". I know CL must also have solved that problem but I presume the toolkit is sufficiently different that the techniques just don't map.

> I understand how extending everyone’s life say 1 year starting tomorrow means fewer deaths (i.e. zero) next year, but after that it’s back to the same rate in deaths per year.

This is precisely what is meant by fewer deaths per year, it's now zero instead of the normal rate.

Similarly, if everybody's life is shortened by 1 year by something, there is an increase in death rate followed by a return.

I'm not sure why this concept elicited so many contrary comments. You already understand the concept, clearly, but I'm not 100% clear on what you are objecting to with your comment, or what meaning you are trying to communicate with this:

> but even if everyone maxed out at 120 years of lifespan the deaths per year will be equal to the number of people reaching 120 years old, and that is determined by how many people were born 120 years before.

Everybody still dies, but we only lived to 120 seems like a good outcome. But right. Effort that you said you are in favor of people living to 120, so what is the purpose of the rest of the paragraph?

>One of the domains where I hope Julia will excel is precisely as you comment on physics + ml (I check frequently if MuJoCo source code is available at last).

Somebody already did a comparison of DifferentialEquations.jl's standard usage against MuJoCo and DiffTaichi and showed that it outperformed them by about 5x-10x.

https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.06684
https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~thickstn/ctpg-project-page/...

That's all showing the raw iteration count to show that it algorithmically is faster, but the time per iteration is also fast for many reasons showcased in the SciMLBenchmarks routinely outperforming C and Fortran solvers (https://github.com/SciML/SciMLBenchmarks.jl). So it's excelling pretty well, and things like the automated discovery of black hole dynamics are all done using the universal differential equation framework enabled by the SciML tools (see https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.12695 for that application).

What we are missing however is that, right now these simulations are all writing raw differential equations so we do need a better set of modeling tools. That said, MuJoCo and DiffTaichi are not great physical modeling environments for building real systems, instead we would point to Simulink and Modelica as what are really useful for building real-world systems. So it would be cool if there was a modeling language in Julia which extends that universe and directly does optimal code generation for the Julia solvers... and that's what ModelingToolkit.jl is (https://github.com/SciML/ModelingToolkit.jl). That project is still pretty new, but there's already enough to show some large-scale models outperforming Dymola on examples that require symbolic tearing and index reduction, which is far more than what physical simulation environments used for non-scientific purposes (MuJoCo and DiffTaichi) are able to do. See the workshop for details (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEVOgSLBzWA). And that's just the top level details, there's a whole Julia Computing product called JuliaSim (https://juliacomputing.com/products/juliasim/) which is then being built on these pieces to do things like automatically generate ML-accelerated components and add model building GUIs.

That said, MuJoCo and DiffTaichi have much better visualizations and animations than MTK. Our focus so far has been on the core routines, making them fast, scalable, stable, and extensive. You'll need to wait for the near future (or build something with Makie) if you want the pretty pictures of the robot to happen automatically. That said, Julia's Makie visualization system has already been shown to be sufficiently powerful for this kind of application (https://nextjournal.com/sdanisch/taking-your-robot-for-a-wal...), so we're excited to see where that will go in the future.
