The GP is making a completely legitimate point here that broad sharing of large raw datasets is pretty hard, but I don't think anyone is arguing we should give up. Here's a few thoughts, though they're more directed at the general thread than the parent.

In my case I'm currently finishing up a paper where the raw data it's derived from comes to 1.5 PB. It is not impossible to share that, but it costs time and money (which academia is rarely flush with), and even if it was easy at our end, very few groups that could reproduce it have the spare capacity to ingest that. We do plan to publicly release it, but those plans have a lot of questions.

Alternatively we could try to share summary statistics (as suggested by a post above), but then we need to figure out at what level is appropriate. In our case we have a relevant summary statistic of our data that comes to about 1 TB that is now far easier to share (1 TB really isn't a problem these days, though you're not embedding it in a notebook). But a large amount of data processing was applied to produce that, and if I give you that summary I'm implicitly telling you to trust me that what we did at that stage was exactly what we said we'd done and was done correctly. Is that reproducibility?

You could also argue this the other way. What we've called "raw data" is just the first thing we're able to archive, but our acquisition system that generates it is a large pile of FPGAs and GPUs running 50k lines of custom C++. Without the input voltage streams you could never reproduce exactly what it did, so do you trust that? Then you're into the realm of is our test suite correct, and does it have good enough coverage?

I think we have a pretty good handle on one aspect of this, is our analysis internally reproducible? i.e. with access to the raw data can I reproduce everything you see in the paper? That's a mixture of systems (e.g. configs and git repo hashes being automatically embedded into output files), and culture (e.g. making sure no one things it's a good idea to insert some derived data into our analysis pipeline that doesn't have that description embedded; data naming and versioning).

But the external reproducibility question is still challenging, and I think it's better to think about it as being more of a spectrum with some optimal point balancing practicality and how much an external person could reasonably reproduce. Probably with some weighting for how likely is it that someone will actually want to attempt a reproduction from that level. This seems like the question that could do with useful debate in the field.
Any non networked devices would be easy to commit to. Nobody will force you to use such a library if you are worried about holes. I think internet connected software like OS and browser matters, but I not only don't care if its in these devices, I WANT it to be easy to hack to run custom software. I am glad that the PSP had holes, I am happy camera firmware had holes, and I am also glad that android had holes, I never been hacked on it once, but I sure did hack it myself!

The threat of most security issues is vastly overblown, spectre and meltdown don't exist in the wild, but they crippled all CPUs just in case. Security at what cost? I disabled it, I have no need to make my computer slower for a virus that will never affect me, I "wear" an updated browser. ;)

Google Calendar GDPR Violation
Dear Community,

I have a problem with Google handling my GDPR request. Before forwarding this issue to my lawyer and notifying my local data privacy authority, I want to try my luck here.

The issue is that it is impossible to delete Google Calendar entries permanently. Even if not visible in the Calendar (and dust bin) anymore, those entries are still visible in Google Takeout with the status "CANCELLED".

How to reproduce:
1. Create a calendar entry
2. Delete that calendar entry
3. Empty the dust bin
4. Download your Google Calendar entry via Google Takeout
5. The calendar entry is still visible, so it must be stored on Google servers still.

I tried contact the support multiple times and also asked them to escalate this case, which was done. But in the end I always receive a generic answer that I should delete my cookies and cache and try again. If that does not work, I should fill out the Google Takeout feedback form.

Has someone else had the same issue? How should I proceed to get my data deleted?
> A few have badging for whether digital artifacts are provided and whether the results have been reproduced or repeated by others - steps in the right direction at least.

This part really downplays the considerable resources (ie time contributed by unpaid volunteers) required to do artifact evaluation.
Which is basically the reddit up- & down-vote versus the HN only upvotes story just on a broader scale, is it?
It crashes in Catalina too, unfortunately. I was looking forward to trying the build.
In my experience doing this kind of thing, I usually use TSV instead of CSV and end up using Unix tools anyway. None of the CSV tools keep up in terms of performance.
LOL, as someone that adopted/adapted to the Apple world when I moved from a Linux laptop to an Apple Mac Mini (for development), this is nonsense.

The removal of the headphone socket, from their perspective, was to move people to wireless headphones. Yes, it was a move everyone hated, but it didn't drive people across to Google/Samsung.

The 30% app store fee is a problem for the developers, not the consumers.

I can make local backups of my iPhone still. I don't have to use iCloud.

Unrepairable devices where you can't even replace a battery (I assume you mean iPhones) is to reduce their manufacturing cost and to make the device more reliable. Same nonsense about the displays. The displays include the facetime cameras and infrastructure, which is intimately tied to the security enclave. Having those two bound together makes the device more secure.

Should they offer the software to every 3rd party repairer? No. Should they make it available along with spares and an online service to bind the two elements? Yes. That way, the service can be done by a 3rd party, but the security remains with Apple. I don't want people to be able to hack the facetime/SE.

Calling disallowing WebGPU as somehow creating "victims" is nonsense.

Apple produces products that people like and pay for. I have a 2014 laptop that still gets (free) upgrades, I have a 2019 iMac that has the best display ever released in consumer desktops. It also allowed me to upgrade the memory. I have an iPhone 12 mini that is great, my iPhone SE is a great remote control and Siri interface and also still gets upgrades.

Will I be able to upgrade RAM in an Mx series Apple product? No, because the memory is built into the SOC. Will Apple overcharge on that RAM? Probably. But on the other hand, having the RAM available to both CPUs and GPUs directly is obviously more efficient in both power and performance that it's worth it.

Will I pay that "tax" to get everything else that comes with the product? Yes. It's worth it in the longer term of a 5 year life of an Apple product.
IE is not WebKit.
Lol looking at the state of our world abs the fact that most people are evil or would happily (and do) go along with evil for a quiet life why on earth would I not be a cynic?
Nice, perhaps you should put an index, and show the kind of requirements from your bank account export methods that allow someone to use this
If people prefer driving, that may just cause more people to move away.
Technically speaking, the dot "." is also a regexp character that matches any symbol ;)

Anyhow, I've added a name search box using the "like" pattern, going to look into regex later this week.
There are a lot of kits out there but you have to be careful. I didn't really read up much on this and bought a kit and I think it was your basic epoxy with gold dust mixed in. In my case and the tiny letters confirm it, it meant the finished product is not really food safe and it's also not heat safe.

To display the bowls it works quite well... but that's about it.

But there are a lot of kits out there, and I still have some other items I might give another go with a better kit.
As someone working in the space, I'd like to respectfully disagree: All players on the market right now, us included, don't focus on replacing, but facilitating human communication by using algorithms. The supply chain is in bad need of a digital overhaul, because things are fundamentally intransparent. Even big companies have no idea where their suppliers came from, what expensive lunch invitation actually got a deal started. With a sudden, global market disruption, they start to notice entire factories stand still if a single, tier-3 supplier is unable to deliver in time.
The solution is insights into supply chains, and visibility for suppliers, so people can make business more easily.
I'm not 100% sure but I think that ios can be virtualise on standard x86.
Survival of Salmonella in Mayonnaise and Other Raw Egg Products
A couple decades ago there were cars in most of those plazas.

Actual steps were taken to change that.
