Got it. So even with hyphenation, the gaps are still bad enough that you'd consider the current ar5iv rendering bumpy and distracting?

I think I can see that, but it's almost there, which is why it feels like there has to be something I'm missing for it to justify "just right".

But yes, at the least you've convinced me we should have a separate theme that goes left-aligned, and possibly makes a number of other choices that maximize readability.

I think it was Pete Seeger who said that the greatest compliment he ever received was someone saying "Oh you wrote that song? I thought it was just.. there".
And who knows how long that will take? In some places it takes long enough just to request a single uber trip much less two in a row. Imagine how livid you'd get when a half hour after you first intended to leave the bar, the second self driving car arrives, and it to is soiled.
My conclusion from years of self-driving, LIDAR, etc. research is that managing medium to heavy precipitation reliably might be impossible.

Visual algorithms run into the same problem as human brains, and the size of e.g. rain drops interferes with the frequencies employed by radio techniques.

Is anyone aware of any strategies that give us hope in solving this problem?
The best initial solution I believe is for the world to protect Palestine from the rockets fired from the Israel side - that way any retaliations to the small group of people firing rockets at Israel don't kill civilians or damage their infrastructure; e.g. put an Iron Dome or better system on the Palestinian side.
The next thing is a driverless car and a driverless bus “docking” at speed, so you can change vehicle without affecting your trip time.

Economics will outcompete 50 self-driving cars going in the same direction for 30min when you could have one driverless-bus doing the same.

If this transition is smooth and fast, think what this will do to traveling time, car prices and property prices. How far can you travel without stops and no traffic jam?
Not for these size datasets. Torrents are just too small and unreliable, except for the very most popular items. Slightly out of mainstream movies, which are small and likely more popular than data for an obscure science experiment, are nearly impossible to find seeders for.

So I'd guess no seeders want to host tens to thousands of terabyte torrents, and then thousands to millions of those for all the different datasets grabbed by all the science projects all over the world. The odds of being able to download one of these on demand is just about zero.

I’ve seen their LIDAR cars in SF too - if I had to guess they’re gathering ground truth data to train monocular depth models on.

And even really naive integrations of LIDAR will show big improvements over camera only. You can do something as simple as overlay the returns from the most recent LIDAR spin over a camera image as a fourth channel and feed it into your models and most of your depth prediction/spatial predictions will improve dramatically.
Hey, with a huge fleet of self driving cars that aren’t taking Saturday night off and only have mostly bar traffic to consider, I think you’ll manage.

And the robot won’t take offense.

I've used elance (many years ago) to pick up extra part-time work and that worked out well. However, my general feeling these days is something like, I am paid pretty well at my day job already so I want to do fun things in my time outside of work. Others may be in a different position where they want to work for themselves here and there, but the people I know who do this tend to establish a client base that comes back for repeat work pretty quickly and then they don't go looking for new stuff any more.

Its more a range issue. Irom Beam has a like a 7 km or mile (I forgot) range. Whereas other like Arrow 2, Arrow 3, or David's Sling has like 100km+ range.

Iron Beam is all about cost per interception.
That's weird. Looks like someone else did it though.
>This new generation of air defence can also serve our friends in the region, who are also exposed to grave threats from Iran and its proxies.

Interestingly enough this system will be available to all those neighborly enough to join Israel against all the Iranian-backed adversaries. It sounds like sales of technology from the NSO group was a real foot-in-the-door for Israel for forging of new, previously unlikely alliances.

Once you get all these rich petro-states hooked on the products that you can peddle then maybe the overall security situation in that region changes dramatically. For one, it becomes more likely that one of these operators could act unilaterally and thus could kick off a war that no one else wanted when other options were still on the table.

Interesting development overall.

> Power consumption varies over the day. A constant load again favors nuclear. A load that can handle daily and seasonal variation would be quite bad for nuclear.

Load following nuclear power stations are a thing.

--- start quote ---

The minimum requirements for the manoeuvrability capabilities of modern reactors are defined by the utilities requirements that are based on the requirements of the grid operators. For example, according to the current version of the European Utilities Requirements (EUR) the NPP must at least be capable of daily load cycling operation between 50% and 100 % of its rated power Pr, with a rate of change of electric output of 3-5% of Pr per minute

Most of the modern designs implement even higher manoeuvrability capabilities, with the possibility of planned and unplanned load-following in a wide power range and with ramps of 5% Pr per minute

As shown in your reply's parent comment which I made, we are not moving in the plane of the galaxy.

There is further detail from Ethan Siegel here: https://medium.com/starts-with-a-bang/ask-ethan-37-the-earth...

Quoting a tiny fraction that article:

The Sun appears to move *up-and-down* and in-and-out with respect to the rest of the galaxy as it revolves around the Milky Way.

(I added the asterisks for emphasis)

Additionally, amplifying my previous comment, almost no known black hole candidates' equators are aligned with their host galaxies' thin discs, at any redshift.
It also depends on what kind of miles. Are they running at the same speed? Only easy highways or complex urban intersections?
Refusing service when the user does not consent to non-essential data sharing is illegal in the EU, and it also breaches Google Play's developer agreement. WiFi scanning is not essential to navigate with an app, and the least they could do to follow the law is to gracefully degrade the service if the user does not consent to share data about nearby devices, such as disabling traffic predictions.

Of course Google's lawyers will argue that this data is in fact required for navigation, the same way some banks in the EU now claim "legitimate interest" when they send you a message about their credit card promotions with winnable prizes, after you've explicitly opted out from all marketing communications.
Hm. If it's in your car, yeah.

Though if I put a thing like that in my window, you'd have to rummage through 20 - 50 flats to find the source of that SSID to identify the creator. With zero legal reason to search my flat over my neighbours flat and vice versa. And also, there is no actual interruption of radio services, so there is no reason to bring in more precise measuring equipment. And I might even have enough time to toss that pi off of the balcony if all else fails.
Throttling's normal and expected. OP indicates "shuts everything down" though -- which sounds more like the CPU turned off to prevent damage. That shouldn't happen if the cooling is working properly.
It'd be great if you had a page on the site explaining the process for clients. I see the strong.network tie-in, but how do projects work? What if you get a dud? Is this like Upwork or not?
You will pay more than the bus, yes.. but perhaps less than the cost of owning and maintaining your own car.

I honestly can't tell if you're trolling or not. They would want to pass you because human drivers aren't rigidly law abiding machines. Is there a large portion of people that go exactly the speed limit, or even lower? Sure. Is there also a large portion of people that speed virtually every moment they're behind the wheel? Yes, absolutely. And I wouldn't be surprised if that were the larger population in most areas. No one who actually drives with any regularity would ever be surprised that people are speeding to pass them.
FWIW - some of your English position pages are still in Dutch. Very cool business!

- core platform for a marketing service/saas startup

- saas productivity tool for a funded govtech startup

Over the past year, I've also been helping a Series A startup in a fractional CTO capacity.

Where are the SLAs?
At the time of comment, a LiDAR rig would cost around $10,000. A few years before that, they were more like $100,000. Presumably the cameras are much cheaper.

I would be willing to bet that production efficiencies will be found that will eventually drive that cost down significantly.
It's more a question of whether it's a problem for the other driver. But yes, I agree the best thing would be to change the laws. Instead they have gotten even more ceremonious in my area over the last few years. Tesla is taking on a ton of liability even by going 5 mph over the limit. This recall will be used in a court case over another FSD feature for sure.
That's interesting - have a look at https://colossal.gitbook.io/microprocess/a-totally-new-conce...

All you need to do is map JWT to a Phantom DB User in PostgreSQL, then you can query SQL directly from the browser.
I believe there is a push in Europe to include this in cars based on computer vision. It was pitched as "not above speed limit". I would at least hope it is "not above speed limit for long" or have some form of slack.
> If companies make crappy software or groceries stock rotten vegetables the invisible hand of the market will take care of it and put them out of business.

The problem with IOT, routers, etc with unpatched vulnerabilities are much more akin to dumping toxic waste or spewing smog than a grocery equipment supplier making poor-quality goods. A grocer would naturally choose equipment that didn't fail and cost them inventory, but unpatched devices affect all of us, even the ones who didn't choose to purchase that equipment. And far from the invisible hand of the free market shutting them out, it actually tends to encourage this behavior (absent regulation) because it's cheaper to dump the waste in the river (not patch your known-vulnerable commercial software) than to pay to have it handled properly, and the market generally favors cheap above all else. It's a classic tragedy of the commons situation, and that's where regulations are important.

> Then there's the issue of who decides what is a vulnerability. And if you think that's obvious just read "The Old New Things" blog for many examples of "vulnerability" reports that boil down to "If I can run program with admin privilege's, I can do bad stuff". Or look at US senators and governors who think that looking at HTML is hacking.

Uh, MITRE already does that. The CVE list is a thing that exists, it works well and isn't filled with a bunch of nonsense. Some blog being bad doesn't mean there's no way to systematically track vulnerabilities and their severity.

This is nonsense throwing up your hands "who can, truly, know anything!?". We can, and we already do.

> Finally, not of that is free. Government doesn't make money, it takes it from you. So when we create new regulation that require more government employees

The beautiful thing is, this isn't about the government enforcing these regulations - this is about creating a civil claim by the customers of the business. The business will provide a support window for critical security vulnerabilities, and if they fail to meet it, they're liable just like any other support contract. It's a free market solution, in fact!
Going by examples in the last year (AAPL and TSLA), it seems very likely.
Yes, I suspect we know each other's points already, but I always am curious about how this particular element of the topic is defined by adherents of the group-to-which-I-don't-belong.

If we both define what's appropriate, and our definitions don't match, how should that disagreement be settled?
I started using CouchDB around 2010.

Overtime CouchDB has been removing more and more functionality and features that made CouchDB great IMHO (e.g couchapps), the 2.x (IIRC) made a lot of changes and totally broke a large application and made it too challenging to update so we stayed on a 1.x version (whatever version was last before the big couch merge.) we're moving off of Couch entirely in the future.

I'd have a look at Couchbase if you're looking for replication features too.
>> The car can report to police silently, that's fine.

No, it should not do even that. You are making an assumption here that police/government always have good intentions.

What society needs is kind of power balance: law enforcement being able to catch 98% of criminals is a noble goal, but pushing that number up to 100% is not possible in democratic society, it requires totalitarian control. That's why we need to make a choice here and oppose surveillance, event if it seems well intentioned.

I haven't seen that one, but I've been watching the Ken Burns documentary recently. It seems suitably fair. Where maybe some of the proposed "McNamara Fallacy" breaks down from OP, according to archives that they go through in the documentary he knew his approach wasn't working for a long time, he just did not (or would not, or could not, depending on your perspective) say so publicly and didn't seem to have any other way to measure progress.
