Scientists deliberately gave people Covid – here’s what they learnt
The statistics are there to read however, and suggest your reasoning is not correct.

Case A:
Non Tesla Human drives 999 easy miles and 1 hard mile

Case B:
Autopilot drives 999 easy miles, and human drives 1 hard mile

If the effect size of the hard mile is so large that its skewing the statistics, you would expect the Telsa human driver to have a horrendous per mile accident rate relative to the non tesla human driver. What's most likely is that the accidents following a human handoff get correctly allocated to the Autopilot and the effect size being described is not actually that significant.

While this is an important first step, I'm pleased there's at least one senator that doesn't have a stunning case of Dunning Kruger.
We just started a club in college. It kinda did everything. We helped the teacher's union organize and plan strikes. We organized climate strikes. We helped the college Dems campaign against the college Republicans who sneaked their way in with a fake party, we helped organize a Food Not Bombs chapter which took foodwaste and turned it into meals for houseless folks, we campaigned for more community gardens, etc

So a little bit of everything
My problem is that the median driver is much much better than the mean driver and tesla os comparing against means.

The damage done in a car distribution is heavily skewed towards people that get in fatal crashes or total a car. I'd randomly guess like 20-30% of drivers are below mean. Most people won't total a car, vast majority will never kill anyone.

If you get median people into an autopilot car that's got a mean safety record we end up pulling the average down, the road becomes less safe. And luxury sedan buyers tend to be one of the safest demos on the road, which makes the problem even worse.
I think Computer Modern looks fantastic digitally (even on a 110ppi screen), and lends an air of seriousness to the text.
At this point the animation is so widely lauded that I'd say it's objectively well executed. I can certainly understand not enjoying the style though, I don't like the style of some of the classic Disney animations... but still can appreciate the effort and skill behind them.

I don't really buy the idea that animators grew up with bad animation and have somehow lower standards... in the case of the handful of pro animators I know, they're absolutely massive animation nerds and their taste extends far beyond what they grew up with.
When I was a kid and we were living in Vancouver, my mum told me how she did a 'rolling stop' through a stop sign at 4am in the morning with empty streets, and a cop car noticed it and gave her a massive fine. She was in tears because my family wasn't earning much money at the time.

For some reason I still remember this story decades later and always come to a full stop at stop signs, that's how I was taught in driving school and that's how I will always do it. I'm a calm driver and I don't care if people are annoyed by me, I will drive the speed limit and I will not rush anywhere, it's not my problem that someone else needs to speed because they woke up late, safety should be the number one priority when you're operating a vehicle.
> Tesla is supposed to mimic human driving so its cars are predictable to other human drivers. What's the point of driving safely if it gets you in an accident?

Weird, Musk is always talking about how FSD is far better than human driving, and far safer.

He's never once said "it's trying to mimic humans", or that it's "much safer unless that might cause an accident, and only then will it drive unsafely (like rolling through stop signs)".

This sounds like post-facto rationalization to me.
This is the point that bothers me the most. Everyone is so fixated on the things they can see and talk about (i.e. regulate). The complex mountain of software running on these cars is the entire bucket of liability.

How do you mandate software quality? I don't think testing alone is enough if you seriously care about safety. Any test can be gamed as tesla has aptly demonstrated so far.
How is this not flagged?
>Automatically create the online meeting spaces for collaboration

>Manage TODO items so nothing falls through the cracks

I work in incident response, and I feel a huge misunderstanding of incident response products fail to understand that companies already have established tools for collaborations and meetings and for capturing planned work.

I find adding these things is seen as nice and inclusive and it is easier to sell a product that does a lot, but it turns into complete bloat and makes adoption harder, and makes it harder to support a larger product.

As a writer, isn't Twitter a place where she can do her job? I think her Twitter is a part of her work. So I was more thinking she would be totally pseduoanonymous (published writing and all). I wasn't picturing a split like you suggest. I don't think that really works with her career, her Twitter is part of her writing.

Plus, part of her hate is from her "broader work". The comic that the Proud Boy guy targeted.
> Does that mean that expectation is all automated cars will go exactly the speed limit on the left lane of North American superhighways?

In the vast majority of states this would also be illegal. If Tesla decides it safe, they should be able to just rewrite the rules, though, right?
I've not tried the new option myself so this isn't a recommendation, but if you are using iCloud for personal email yet are doing 'professional' email elsewhere because of the custom domain, then you may not know that iCloud now supports those custom domains.

Of course there may be other reasons why you want professional email separate, such as not having it at risk should Apple decide you've broken their T&Cs because poor AI/ML says so, and they close your account.
I would certainly not rely on journalists' to actually have a look at the data, let alone to have the technical skills to analyze and report on it. As it is, reporters don't bother mentioning / linking to the data, or mentioning the lack of publicly available data.

Is it though? Without advancement in 3D animation Arcane wouldn't have been possible. It's a fairly unique 3D/2D hybrid and that merging of the styles is apparent in how it looks.
Agree. If an AI could code within the top 1%, every single person whose career touches code would have their lives completely upended. If that’s only 5 years out…ooof.

> Um, you kept defending your use of the word, rather than abandoning it in the face of multiple people showing you used it incorrectly.

Do you often abandon ideas because of a volume of people disagreeing with you? How do you differentiate that from falling victim to an ad populum logical fallacy?

> You've been antagonistic and personal to me

Apologies! Can you cite, specifically, where I was unambiguously this way towards you? I'd like to understand whether this is just you reading too much into something I said, or if I've genuinely made a mistake here. I suspect the former, but it could be the latter!

> rather than admit that nepotism means family and close friends, not "everyone I know,"

What's interesting here is that you think I ever said, "everyone I know". I certainly didn't mean that, and as far as I can tell, I never said that either. I look forward to seeing the specific language I used that caused your confusion!

> and it has hurt your core thesis

How would this hurt my core thesis, since it's not important to that thesis if the people being favored are close to the person in power?

> multiple people read your posted definitions and noted that they did not support your use of the word.

Noted incorrectly. There's nothing to be done if people write factually false statements on HN, but that's what they are; factually incorrect.

Further they're not "my* definitions, but definitions from prestigious institutions trusted to define English words.

> It's so weird that you're unwilling to see this

That implies there's something to see, when in fact there is not. What's actually weird is how you keep replying, yet with no new information or analysis.

It cannot be undermining my primary point, as it's not related to my primary point.

> but you do you.

Oh I will, I do not need permission from you to do that. Again, I'm curious about why you take this position of authority, as if you have any control over my behavior at all.
To me, that's actually one of the more interesting questions. It's possible to grade the output of the AI against objective criteria, like does it run, and resources consumed (RAM, CPU time, and, particularly of interest to me, parallel scaling, as GPU algorithms are too hard for most programmers). To what extent can you keep training by having the AI generate better and better solutions to a relatively smaller input pool of problems? I skimmed the paper to see how much they relied on this but didn't get a clear read.

> but a large cube of steel probably has similar strength with tensile and compressive loads.

Not just similar, but pretty much identical from what I recalled from my uni classes. Wikipedia for structural materials (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_material) also has this bit -

>Steel is equally strong in tension and compression.
I remember watching Terminator 2 when I was in film school (1991). It was shot in 1990, and the tech for the T1000 seemed incredible. Then a friend showed me how much CGI was used to clean up simple stuff that you would never have thought of. Watch the T800 (Arnold/Stuntrider) jump his Harley into the river bed. That was wire work cleaned up via CGI. Not really necessary, they could have shot a diff angle to hide it, but that's a tell as well. Movies since then have always used low-key FX and CGI for this type of journeyman stuff.

The thing that makes this great is that it increases a movie's verisimilitude. Your shots don't need to mask or hide things. They can be more organic and real.
I wrote something similar (Lunchtime.io) as a way for the Open COVID-19 Initiative to relax with other members. One issue I found early on was that people would wait for ages to get into a call and leave. So we solved it by letting people pick times which suit them, showing how many people had picked that time, receive email reminders when that time approached and once the time came up, we’d give them a link. made things so much smoother and i had some incredible talks with people although… it was v awkward sometimes.

That being said, project got sunsetted because open source projects always make way for priority so love to see people love this.

I think in conclusion your hope is that blender would become more mouse driven than it is now? Unfortunately at this point, this is akin to people asking for better mouse support in eMacs. It won’t be high priority because of the community preference for using shortcuts. Whether shortcuts are faster or not in all circumstances, they’re now second nature to the serious users and the keyboard interface is seen by them as one of the great strengths of the software.

You can frame it any way you want, but you are manipulating them TO bring utility.

Right?
You may be correct that "most people" don't love settings, but I think we underestimate how many power users there are in the wild. I personally prefer software to be customizable and give me a lot of options to configure and get what I want out of it.

There are a lot of people who are willing to engage with your software and use their critical thinking skills in that process. I think we're losing something valuable by dumbing down all software and all interfaces to the lowest common denominator in the pursuit of "no friction" for users. Some friction is totally fine.
I don’t even think the “will AI replace human programmers” question is that interesting anymore. My prediction is that a full replacement won’t happen until we achieve general artificial intelligence, and have it treat programming as it would any other problem.

Elsewhere ITT I’ve claimed that to fully automate programming you also need a model of the external world that’s on par with a humans.

Otherwise you can’t work a job because you don’t know how to do the many other tasks that aren’t coding.

You need to understand what the business goals are and how your program solves them.
In my experience, libertarians are more than eager to take a Faustian bargain to avoid government regulations... And to frame that sort of nonsense as some kind of in-volatile Prime Directive.

I wonder if that might be a function of how roads near you are designed. I live in the Bay Area and there are definitely certain roads and intersections where I don't feel safe not coming to a full stop and looking both ways. It might be because of hills or that the other direction has no stop sign, etc. Maybe where you live roads have better visibility but at least in my experience in my part of the Bay Area, I often find myself needing to be very careful at some stop signs and has consequently been doing complete stops.

For most brushless motors--though not axial flux motors like the one under consideration here--it's much easier to get heat out by passing air axially across the stator. This means that while the surface area is increasing proportionally with length, your ability to flow air across that surface area is not keeping up. For that same motor volume, a shorter and fatter motor will have better airflow and cooling than a long skinny motor.
The social science and medical replication crisis seems like it would be far more impactful than a mathematics crisis, right? Politicians, policy-makers, doctors, etc. all make decisions based on potentially flawed or outright incorrect studies in a way that I don't think is true for the equivalents in math, simply because there aren't decisions and policies up for debate related to much of them (if I am wrong about this, please correct me).

A friend of mine recently died by suicide and I think the constant persuasion to socially isolate was a contributing factor. It made it near impossible to detect that something was wrong and to intervene. He messaged me the day before asking how I was & mentioned that mental health was on his mind. I didn't realize that he needed help urgently.

People suffering from depression don't seek help and I'm not going to force him meet face-to-face. We're making the responsible choice anyways, given our public health recommendations. He was of course in the lowest COVID risk demographic, and was vaccinated.

The subversion, strawmaning & lies-by-omission throughout MSM and from our politicians has been incredible. It's even worse that friends and family are parroting it. People are suffering because of the public health mandates. It's not just "Canadians are tired". I don't think this is being fairly acknowledged.

Look at the accident and fatality rates for drivers of luxury cars. They are much, much lower than the same rates for less expensive cars. In fact, if you break it down by vehicle model, there are several models with 0 fatalities at all.

It might be worth pointing out that HCL are patented by Cloudera in 2014 (with a provisional patent application filed in 2013) https://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2015/0156262.html

So while it is 100% open source, depending on your jurisdiction, you could be sued by Cloudera for patent infringement.

It is interesting, also how the referenced paper https://cse.buffalo.edu/tech-reports/2014-04.pdf is from 2014. Wonder if they knew about it each other? It doesn't seem like the researchers from the paper are mentioned in the patent at all.

Color grading has nothing to do with CGI. That's a production choice not a technical limitation. DPs and directors have been favoring a limited or neutral color palette for the last two decades. Like any fashion, this will change.
The median driver is a difficult thing to study. 77% of people have experienced an accident, but I think fewer than 50% of people have been at fault for one. That's not to say they wouldn't be at fault if they drove more, but the median has a clean record. Hard to know who to exclude.
