That’s why I was so interested in the study of smokeless tobacco users.

Anyway, I don’t mean the tar is the physical barrier, inflammation response plus common changes to the extracellular matrix should both result in a physical barrier. The compensative increased respiratory rate seems like it would offset reduced surface area, but these changes are more complicated than that.

Also, it’s increased risk of detected infection, but patients without symptoms are rarely tested for viral disease at this scale. That makes comparisons very tricky.

>I'm just wondering what that would look like. It seems a Sisyphean task at best, like seeking a needle in a haystack. And how do you make sure you don't accidentally damage a hard drive with an excavator? What makes him think the hard drive is not already damaged because it has been driven over or just the weight of garbage crushing it? What if his hard drive went through one of those conveyor belts with a giant magnet above it to separate metals?

Sorting out all the hard drives within the proposed quantities of trash seems well within the realm of what's possible with modern waste sorting robots.

Hard drives are really sturdy, it's unlikely that the data would be unrecoverable if you were able to identify the correct hard drive remains.
Its becoming obvious that people shouldn't keep their stuff online on places they have 0 control.

Would Ecmascript[1] be another example?

(since photo management seems to be of interest)

I have approx. 220k photos, of which 210k are in camera raw, 10k are ‘processed’, which typically means exposure corrected, cropped, etc. They are stored in two parallel directories (raw and processed), each of which is structured into years which are further subdivided into ‘shoot’ folders – one for each distinct upload from the camera. I use Adobe Bridge to do the uploads and to change the raw files names to support my indexing approach. The year folder names are simple (e.g. ‘2021’) and the shoot folders have names like ‘2021-010 garden birds young’ (where 010 is the sequence # of the shoot in the year). The folders thus automatically list themselves in chronological order when sorted alphabetically. A processed image might have a name like ‘20210523_010_my-IRL-name-here_0019.psd’ (so that I can immediately find the raw or processed shoot folder given a file name). I insert my name so that if I a send an image to someone I am identified as a creator (image metadata contains additional contact / copyright info). I’ll often extend the automatically generated file name to include the photo subject as I process specific images.

My indexing system relies on my memory and the fact that the relatively small number of processed pictures are indicative of the contents of the wider raw set – so I can browse the relatively small number of processed shots (using Bridge) if I am looking for something thematically. I usually manage to cull obvious fails from the raw set when I do an upload before doing any processing. Storage costs being what they are I have not yet had to further cull raw or processed images to make room on my hard-drives – currently 1.7Tb of images.

I have left it too late to add meaningful tags to this collection, and because I am the only librarian, I don’t have a need to help other users find particular images.

It could be remunerated. Like: pay 100$ to have a human look at your case. You can appeal (and pay) up to 3 times. This would partially solve the scalability problem + provide partial disincentives for scammers and spammers.

Wireguard will keep contacting the remote server. You'd have to delete the wg0 interface or delete the default route for packets to go out via ens0. Wireguard only has "connection" in a sense that it caches some runtime information about the peer's endpoint, but endpoint configuration is static.

I guess, too much magic automation on top of this is not the best thing for opsec, including having some daemon that can disable your wireguard interface or reconfigure the network if it doesn't like something. You want your network configuration to be static and predictable, regardless of some temporary failures. Basic wireguard kernel primitives will give you that.
Well, at least there is one country willing to take this seriously.

>IPv6 enables insane precission of device tracking. A side effect of not having enough ipv4 addresses and using NAT is that all your home devices let's say, go out on the internet using only a single IP address

Use random addresses, no further words needed. If you are actually that paranoid, feel free to use stateless translation to change the host part of the IP.

>Also, the geo-location accuracy using ipv4 is at the level of a city. With ipv6 you can get to a geolocation accuracy of a building block and confidently target individual devices within ones home network since they will use

Unless your ISP is announcing unique /48s of individual building block, no. If your home router gets a static IPv4 address, the same problem prevails, not relevant.

>Surely, privacy minded people will find a way around those, but out of the box ipv6 is a privacy regression for the reasons listed above

Out of the box IPv6 offers the same privacy regressions as the original IPv4 before we fucked it to high hell. NAPT is a royal pain for any P2P protocol.

So, like humans, training an AI takes lots of curated data (education, journalism, political savvy and avoidance of bias or corruption). It took a very long time to get that corpus ready and available for humanity (say 10,000 years).

Now we have exploded that corpus to include everything anyone says online, and we are worried that the lack of curation means we cannot be sure what the models will come back with.

Its rather like sending our kids out to find an education themselves, and finding three come back with nothing, two spent years learning from the cesspit of extremism, two are drug addicts hitting "more" and one stumbled into a library.

Just a thought but I dont think journalism is really about writing newspaper articles. It really is about curating the whole wide world and coming back with "this is what you need to know". Journalism is the curation AI needs...

5 Tips to Make Your Company a Great Place to Work
Do not use the cloud as a storage system. Use it as a distribution system only and keep multiple copies of precious data with you, on media that you control.

I use Smugmug but if they go out of business today I couldn't care less, not only do I keep copies, I also keep the structure of the galleries and could recreate them elsewhere with little trouble.
With perfect filtering, they can be two standard deviations from the norm which is quite noticeable, but that’s not what’s going on.

The military rejects ~23% of applicants due to educational issues. One of the results of this is members of the military are above the average intelligence in the US. But they also reject people with excessive criminal history, significant physical disability, or even extreme weight. Though it’s a sliding scale based on rates of recruitment.

(Seriously) I wonder to what extent a cause is that the internet is US-dominated - because US (& Canadian) television is just like this too. Opaque and colourful channel logo that spins and barely fades, and advertising that pops up over the programme while it's playing!

If that's your norm on TV, sure, why wouldn't a web page work like that? It baffles me just like OP, but no more than it does on television programmes.
Ok I'll give it a go in good faith the next time I have a problem.
Out of interest, what is the argument for reducing resolution other than space concerns? Fitness data is not really space-intensive. I recently ran a marathon and the associated GPX file is less than a megabyte; the FIT file is about 180KB. I don't really think even 30 years of regular running data would come to much. I appreciate cycling data will take more space but not that much more.

My point is, it seems like once you have put in place the habits and technological solutions necessary to store fitness data, it actually takes more effort to reduce the resolution of older data. I'd rather have data and not want it than want it and not have it, but then I am an almost pathological hoarder so maybe it's just me.

How do these things work in the physical world?

I always thought we had protections that when someone runs a public service (eg. a restaurant or a supermarket), they can't just turn people away they want for "any reason". But I was never confident this is true (and sure, it depends on the local laws).

Eg. imagine there being the only supermarket in your area where the security person (or the branch manager, whoever) doesn't like you (it could be for a mundane reason, maybe you made the computer nerds club and they didn't :), and never lets you in. Obviously, supermarkets rarely exist right next to each other, so existence of one usually precludes another one existing nearby (sometimes even due to urban planning/zoning), but this would be equivalent to terminating someone's account "for any reason".

Would that be legal anywhere?

With public servants, it is usually clear: they've got to give you a reason for any action they are taking, a reason supported by law (except when endangered, but those are special, edge cases).
Ugh the title of the article.

Here's the paper that this article is recapping - "Reduced, Reused and Recycled: The Life of a Dataset in Machine Learning Research", https://openreview.net/forum?id=zNQBIBKJRkd

Abstract:
"Benchmark datasets play a central role in the organization of machine learning research. They coordinate researchers around shared research problems and serve as a measure of progress towards shared goals. Despite the foundational role of benchmarking practices in this field, relatively little attention has been paid to the dynamics of benchmark dataset use and reuse, within or across machine learning subcommunities. In this paper, we dig into these dynamics. We study how dataset usage patterns differ across machine learning subcommunities and across time from 2015-2020. We find increasing concentration on fewer and fewer datasets within task communities, significant adoption of datasets from other tasks, and concentration across the field on datasets that have been introduced by researchers situated within a small number of elite institutions. Our results have implications for scientific evaluation, AI ethics, and equity/access within the field."

The reviews seem quite positive, if short. On a skim it looks very solid, offering an empirical look at the dynamics of benchmark usage that IMO seems unprecedented, so I'm not surprised it got positive reviews and accepted.
No, that plot point was likely written because of this.
Have to be careful of incidence data over time. A lot has changed in the way we define diseases, as well as how we investigate them, from the point at which you see a general practitioner to whether you would get an endoscopy, to how the disease is defined histologically.

That's exactly why any large values of bitcoin ought to be stored in multisignature wallets, 3-of-5 offering pretty robust resilience to loosing a key or two. In that case, you need three different signatures to move any money, so no single click accidental failures. Time locking funds can also prevent user mistakes, as no one can move the coins until the lock time is reached on-chain.

The thing is, if you lost your share certificate, but could still prove to the registrar that you were the legitimate owner of those shares, there's a good chance you would get them back. Likewise, if you accidentally burned a bunch of banknotes, but had sufficient fragments remaining to prove your ownership, your central bank is likely to be able to recompense you. That's one of the consumer-friendly features of centralised systems, which is considered a bug in consumer-hostile decentralised systems.
