Low pass filters can have significant phase delay, whereas Kalman filters can be made to have essentially no lag (phase delay). Additionally, Kalman filters can stabilize the estimate of a state based off of other correlated measurements much better than simply low pass filtering the measurement.

For example, in an IMU, the accelerometers may be noisy due to vibration from the aircraft or vehicle, and the magnetometer measurements which are not affected by vibration, can be used to stabilize the inclination estimates.

Kalman filters are extremely useful and enable applications not possible with just low pass filtering.

Also, you don't need to get the covariance matrix "exactly right", these are tuned in practice on actual measurement and can be used to speed up or slow down the state estimation or weighting of different measurements.
Yes, the complete absence of state income taxes makes an enormous difference. Texas property taxes sound crazy until you take that into account.

Putting taxes on sales and property means that even those paid under the table can't escape taxation.
I think CBVs get a lot of unnecessary hate. DetailView, ListView, DeleteView, etc save so much time and repetition for basic CRUD pages. Once things get complicated and you start having to override too many methods, it's often best to write the post(), get(), put(), etc methods explicitly. At that point you are still writing CBVs but it's much more organized.

> Hasn't one of the big lessons of COVID been that anyone can work from anywhere that there's a decent internet connection?

No, one of the biggest lessons of COVID is that lots of people can't, and being in a field where you can can be a massive advantage in certain circumstances, which accelerates inequality when those manifest because it correlates strongly (though not perfectly) with higher income work.

True, this is a valid point. I’m under the impression that it has been studied, though I don’t have a source off the top of my head. It’s definitely been debated vigorously and often.

Anyway, keep in mind that this net benefit needs to incentivize people to get over the static friction of starting in the first place. We don’t want to make a point of handing content and ideas over to incremental producers because that will disincentivize people from trying in the first place.

Also important is that part of the net benefit to society is a trickle-down argument that we need to reward the authors first in order for society to reap the net benefit. The point is not to encourage business at the fastest possible speed be letting people borrow the ideas and inventions and content of others, the point is to protect the people who do the actual original work for a reasonable period of time, and to allow for the fact that they might be less good at business than someone who’s only reselling content.

Might be worth stating that study the economics of social net benefits is incredibly difficult, and can take a very, very long time, longer than you and I have left. The environment is a great example of how we’ve made disastrous business choices that were rationalized by “social benefit”, but turned out to be wrong.

I usually have a FBV handler (foo_handler) that just passes along all the required parameters to foo_get, foo_post, etc, and then takes the return value of those and wraps it in a HttpResponse/JsonResponse.

That way my actual view logic doesn't have to deal with anything http, and it makes testing them way simpler.
This headline is misleading, the jury ruled that Wright owes W&K and Kleiman's estate $100 million in intellectual property rights.

The trial was never meant to ascertain if Wright is who he claims to be, since both parties asserted for the purposes of the trial that this was true.

Thus, no cryptographic signatures were required to prove identity.

Do you have specific examples?

I've built a number of decently large Flask apps over the years (dozens of blueprints, 100+ models, etc.) and it was never an issue. I've used similar code organizational patterns in both small and large apps and it worked great. It was a combination of solo projects and working with small teams.

That's basically the point of democracy and local levels of government - sufficient support at the local level means they make a change that fits the desires of the constituents. Different areas have different desires, and thus different laws.

Why should I care if there's high density housing in cities if I don't live there? Let those people decide what they want for that area.
Does it not capture the essence of modern music industries in capitalist societies?
The real trouble with doing that, for families, is that rural & small-town schools are almost all bad, compared with suburban schools. Makes it an unrealistic (or, at least, pretty undesirable) option unless you're homeschooling, so rich you can afford boarding school (unlikely any decent private schools will be in commuting range), or simply don't have and don't plan to have kids.

I'm not saying it's a majority, but I think a lot of suburb-dwellers would rather live in one or either of the country or the city, but are stuck in the 'burbs for the public schools.
What?!

Everybody is very slow to update their outage pages because of SLAs. It's in a company's financial interest to deny outages and when they are undeniable to make them appear as short as possible. Status pages updating slowly is definitely by design.

There's no large dev platform I've used that this wasn't true of their status pages.

Fabric Muscles: A Simplified Exosuit Design
Fascinating, which kind of JTAG fixture did you use for this device and which debugger did you use? kdb?
Not the only good feature, though. I've been doing Advent of Code in C# this year to get my head around it. The standard library and language features seem to be sane and nicely-designed and I am having fun with it.

As an aside, it's always interesting to see how standard libraries do splits and joins between arrays/tuples/collections and strings.

In Perl they're both functions:

@arr = split(/ /, $str);
$str = join (" ", @arr);

In Python they're methods on the separator or tuple:

arr = str.split(" ")
str = ",".join(tuple)

That idea that you're telling comma to join a group of items always rubbed me wrong. In C#, joining is a class method:

arr = str.Split(" ");
str = string.Join(" ", arr);

Here "string" is a class name. The lack of parallelism grates on me somewhat. I think I would have preferred

str = arr.Join(" ");

Does anyone know why this form is not used?
That’s the strategy that has been employed by armies for a long time - see Vietnam, the WW2 eastern front and numerous other conflicts. But instead of equipment versus equipment it was lots of ill trained farmers versus relatively few well trained soldiers.
I see those are American self-reports. From experience, here around Eastern Europe, I am surrounded by people content with being single. If anything, life doesn't get cheaper.

I think Images could greatly benefit from having a tag/label system that allows you to decorate it, similar to how enterprise cache tags was implemented. That way, it is trivial to do things like "delete by user id X" as well as covering your use case.

No. You take the losses, put a brave face and spin a story about navigation error.
Then if you think you weren't in the wrong and they need to get a lesson you destroy something of theirs a while later.

Btw, I'm not saying that's what's happened. I'm just hypothesizing that in case it happened like that they wouldn't start WW3 over it.

A city only "encompasses" suburbs because suburbanites drive to the city to work.

Functionally I'd say that the urban space ends where mass transit ends.
I wouldn't use their Finland DC for anything serious. Peering isn't good and they seem to route a lot of the traffic via their Germany network. Both DCs in Germany are way better.
> But why have dense urban cities in the 2020's? Why can't suburbs actually live up to the urb part?

A suburb living up to the urb part is really just a town or a small city. As for why you have suburbs, I think the primary reasons are economic, though there are social (and in some places racial) reasons as well. As it currently stands, ignoring the problem of atmospheric carbonization and climate change, it's cheaper to centralize industry. This issue is quite poignant in the tech industry, where things are extremely centralized, and where many people flock to the handful of cities that have the biggest tech companies.
Most of the world works by hiding symptoms until something forces the issue. Often it never happens, so we’re all good (as it were). Sometimes it doesn’t, then everyone starts pointing fingers.

Many people are pretty adept at making sure the fingers don’t point at them.
Not usual - what sort of plants? What did the concrete look like it was doing?

Organic material would be fine if it was underneath eg, a temporary pathway or something, but that's about it. Actually it might also be fine for secant pile cap (talked about in this video[1]): when you drill a secant pile, you generally pour a concrete cap (that then gets drilled away).

>similar to pharmaceuticals.

It is a pharmaceutical. Using any given drug without doctor or pharmacist oversight isn't a great argument for less regulation. Even if you're overall against most regulation and govt overreach.

>Even the scales used must be of the same spec used for gold weighing and cost roughly $1,500 each. It's not just the dispensaries but the wholesalers, processors, and cultivators need to buy these scales and register them once a year with the state for $100.

Every scale or other measuring device involved in commerce has to be inspected and stamped yearly, in most states. That's why the scale at your grocery checkout and gas pumps have the same stickers on them.

Other than the banking issue, none of the common complaints are really specific to the cannibas market.

More likely this market has just attracted a disproportionate number of people with little or no business experience, who are oblivious to the risks, regulatory hurdles, and associated costs that all types of businesses deal with.

It's a shame that the question was about what effect density will have on different factors, rather than about what factors people care about. I'd rather know if people oppose density because it affects desirability than know if people just think density will make their place less desirable.
If you had a smooth transition between high and low density, the total area covered by housing would be smaller. So oddly enough, even the lowest density housing would now be closer to jobs in the city. Furthermore, since public transport makes more sense for those in the 'middle'-density area, there would be less for those who choose to drive in from the low-density area.

Pydantic allows you to write super clean (in comparison to DRF) serializers using just type hints, as opposed to the declarative approach of DRF serializers. It's really nice and refreshing.
I agree with what you are saying. But US materiel could have come with or without an actual war declaration. Actually, war was declared by Germany on December 11, 1941, and the USSR was declared eligible for lend-lease aid on November 7, 1941. Declaring war on the US or not, Hitler would have still dealt with (partially) US funded Soviets just because it attacked the USSR in June 22, 1941 so that is not an argument. Of course, it's hard to judge, as aid can (and was) accelerated.

That is how everything is setup. We use debt for everything. "Saving" is only a savings if the saved money is growing (invested). If you put it under a mattress inflation always eats it. Hoarding money is always punished/disincentivized by any modern government. They want you under pressure to invest or spend.

Nobody I know of is proposing only high-density housing. The issue, especially in places like the Bay area is that density should have been going up closer in, instead of paving over the garlic fields in Gilroy. It is much less costly to make subway stations bigger and add cars to trains than it is to extend rail farther out.

There are existing solutions that would "create systems of small cities that can satisfy the needs of the many as well as the few." If US trains did not suck, Lawrence, Worcester, Springfield and more would see an economic boom and take pressure off the Boston housing market. I can fly into Schiphol overnight and take a train to Hilversum in the morning more easily and vastly more reliably than I can take the MBTA to Amtrak to New York.

> If the demand for green energy is increasing due to Bitcoin

I would much rather that the demand for green energy increase due to a desire to transition away from other energy sources.

If the demand for energy is increasing and being met with green energy without removing the other sources of energy, that's not entirely a win in my book.

fit=crop and fit=cover only work well if the source dimensions are greater than 512×512. If either dimension of the source is smaller, the behavior is useless.

fit=cover will return a square (as requested), but will enlarge it (which you never want because it wastes bandwidth).

fit=crop will cut off excess pixels if either dimension exceeds 512, but it does not always return a square. (And contrary to the docs, it does not behave like fit=scale-down.)
Sure, but a big company can absolutely find some little-known creator's work, spin off their own products with it, and use their size to absolutely dominate search results, marketing, and distribution.

While it may no longer be legally considered theft, it does seem to be a shame that a creator has a window of only a couple years to find success with their work before they're at risk of it becoming worthless to them. In creative fields it often takes many years to build up a portfolio and a following, if you've not been picked up by a major promoter.

There is an interesting detail buried in here. On the slide titled “infrastructure,” most categories (CDN, DNS, etc.) list “Rumble Cloud” as the first option. As far as I know, no such product currently exists. To me this implies that Rumble is intending to branch out into the cloud infrastructure business.

Note that Rumble also went “public” recently via a very similar acquisition corp (CFVI).

This tweet from a few months ago seems to confirm a beta exists: https://www.twitter.com/rumblevideo/status/14337756631781908...

No, I don't have to "unpack" anything. I'm not the one making a value judgment within that framework. You seem to think I am making a judgment, which I assume you think is a negative one given your choice of words, because I said "gentrification". People who say their neighborhood is being gentrified may be justified or they may be not. It's really not relevant given how I already framed my argument starting from the first sentence.

It's possible that one side is more morally wrong than the other, and it's at least inherently true. In fact I would bet we'd agree on which is the most morally wrong. That doesn't really matter because both sides have valid positions.
Data point of one: I'm not huge into social features in the first place, but I really appreciated how Rdio handled it. Easily spy on everything your friends are listening to. Homepage is a dynamic looking feed of stuff including random recent stuff your friends listened to or things they listen to a lot. I found a lot of cool music this way and the context of a friend-based recommendation, I think, was valuable to me in a way.

I was disappointed that I had to switch to Spotify. Spotify does the bare minimum here. You can only see what your friends are currently listening to. Maybe their history as well, but I don't even feel compelled to check. I hardly even notice it there in the corner of the window. And it only exists on the desktop client, last I checked.

I can't even share a song with a friend within Spotify, I have to copy a link and paste it in a chat window, or connect on Facebook (which I don't have). Why wouldn't they want to encourage intra-platform sharing? The only social feature I've found useful is building playlists.

It's baffling to me. But obviously they know what they're doing.
