If only failing to have the cam present or running were considered a super bad crime instigating a huge investigation with a bias towards guilt and you have to prove innocense.

Instead, at least in some places, cops get away with turning their cams off or otherwise suffering mysterious glitches and data loss.

There used to be standards for certain things where the appearance of imporopriety was bad enough all by itself, exactly because some things can't really be proven, like how you can't prove a negative. That seems to be pretty much gone now. Judges don't recuse themselves from cases where they have a conflict of interest, and the other judges just let them, etc.

So, in the sweet naive child view of the world, a cop merely no being able to produce their body cam footage for some incident, no matter what they say or what the story is should be almost automatic grounds for dismissal of the whole case and maybe the cop too, or at least a huge stink and huge investigation. But I don't think we live in that world we tell gradeschool kids we live in.
Fallacy of the Inverse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denying_the_antecedent
I’m not sure what you are arguing about. There is a process to decide if a medical procedure is ethical or not. It involves an ethics board where people who know much more about both ethics and the proposed procedure than the average HN commenter make a decision. If you feel this process did come up with bad decisions please elaborate. But the researcher in question didn’t bother to get a decision, just falsified one for himself. That doesn’t sound right, really.

I’ve been on the internet for quite a long time, but I’ve never heard of it before. So maybe it’s basic knowledge for a given discipline, but maybe not for others?

It’s also, I assume by the authors, submitted to hackernews which is a pretty diverse place. “Basics” is relative.

I am not saying there should be a dissertation about how the thing works, but it’s generally bad form to use abbreviations without using the long form at least once - for people who would indeed like to search for more information.
I don't see how it's a dichotomy.

It's entirely possible that a closed ecosystem enables a large number of features with a certain set of tradeoffs, and an open ecosystem enables a large number of features with a different set of tradeoffs, and there is overlap between the feature sets.

Does that mean that there is no need for an open ecosystem, when you can get what you need from a closed ecosystem? No, because while all the features you care about may be in both, the tradeoffs you have to make to use the closed ecosystem might not be the tradeoffs you want to make.

And the converse is equally plausible: That you can get all the features you care about in both, but it does not mean that there is no need for a closed ecosystem, because while all the features someone cares about may be available in both, the tradeoffs they want to make may align more closely with the closed ecosystem's tradeoffs than with teh open ecosystem's tradeoffs.

I think it is true that given some set of features, we can nearly always find a set of open source products/packages to deliver the required functionality, and for a very pedantic literal sense of "need, " OSS does everything people need.

But hardware and software products are more than just a set of features. They're the other tradeoffs that form a messy collection of affordances and pain points, and different people have different needs from the entire product's perspective.
Thats exactly the point. It's legislation that in practice leaves enough room to still be constitutional and democratically viable, but can be communicated in a way that deter people from documenting police

TL;DR: The grandparent's source is a load of horseshit, and it seems evident an agenda is being pushed.

The grandparent's source came from a person going by Manul Ashwadka [1]. I've added their comment in specific and as we can also see from the link that Manul's sources are from his own posted studies [2] (a guess based on the published initials on Zenodo) which from what I can gather is not peer reviewed.

Further more, in an attempt to find out more about the author of the paper, the link to his/her/their blog as found on a hyperlink from Zenodo leading to ORCiD results in the following (now defunct) webpage: https://fight-against-gates-new-world-order.mozello.com/blog... [3].

With this avenue blocked, any publicly information we can find about Manul Ashwadka (whom I suspect is the same as M.A.) is their posts on Quora which essentially devolve into accusing Quora of censoring posts for disagreeing with the Biden administration, justifying the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine, blaming Dr. Fauci for creating the pandemic, blaming the US for a variety of things, etc...

Your mentality is “throw them at a hacker rank problem and rate who had the best American Idol performance.”

Which is braindead. You can claim that’s not your process but ultimately you’re trying to get someone to present an output based on your input while also not accepting that the process is not always the same.

Let’s explain by analogy here:
I’m hiring a great /Painter/ for a portrait of my family.
Would it be reasonable to call in 10 painters and show them a photo of my family and say “show me what you can paint in 10 minutes!”?

Do you think that’s a good metric to hire creative talent? Or, perhaps you don’t think they’re creative, and you make your portrait a paint by numbers, and then say “quick, take this color and mix it, then paint in the numbers, let’s see who can mix the color really fast!”

Or maybe you call the 10 painters in and say “show me your personal gallery, that will be all!” So you dismiss 7/10 painters because they sold their work and it doesn’t ride around with them.

Do you feel that you’re hiring a good painter?
People use VSC for c++? I tried to use it once, but nothing really worked out of the box and the experience was so much worse than any other c++ IDE. Same with .Net in VSC.

Always felt like Microsoft wants to push me towards their "main" Visual Studio for c++ and .Net by keeping the VSC experience for these languages bad.

With the rolling shutter of smartphones, combined with the fact the light from the led will spread slightly throughout the frame (dirt in the lens etc), you effectively get one piece of information per row of the image. So a 1080p60 video, which most phones are capable of, gives you 64kbps.

With no feedback channel though, one can't characterize the channel though, so you need to have super large margins to be sure it's going to work.

A data mesh approach probably wouldn't work in the sort of organization you describe.

IMO - To make it work you need a consistent taxonomy or way of translating from a particular domain to some sort of interchange format.

If you have that then a set of centralized tools can pull from the separate domains using a core set of protocols to produce reports etc.

With what? That phone that just got knocked to the ground? Or that phone you can't operate while you're handcuffed or busy trying to breath gravel?

You do need the right to film yourself, but there is no valid rationale for limiting it to yourself, making it so that your defense is entirely your responsibility and if you fail to film yourself for any of the imfinite reasons that can happen, you're out of luck.

It just doesn't hold water. All this does is gives cops something they can threaten bystanders with on the spot, which will work on most people most of the time.

When they go home and google about it later and figure out that actually they could have filmed, or it would just be a harmless fine they would have been willing to risk, the damage is already done. You can't go back and collect the evidense after the fact, and most people don't have repeated incidents with police that are bad enough they would even feel a need to film. That one incident was probably all they may ever have, and they didn't film that one.

So the technicalities don't excuse this. Police have a goal that they don't have the right to actually mandate (don't film me while I'm operating on behalf of the state), and this rule doesn't technically mandate it, yet still achieves that goal anyway.

I am unsure about what could possibly be better about them? Twice the chance to misspell one of the string constants? Twice the time to write the code, which in this case seems to be the big blocker? Twice the code to update in case any of it has to change? Twice the complexity per line of code?

> That, of course, would be absurd. If anyone is actually interviewing people that way, they're doing a terrible job.

Perhaps you have never experienced that sort of interview, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

I was once asked a question where the solution involved implementing a trie. The naive design involves a 26-element array to hold all the possible next-letter entries, which obviously takes a huge amount of memory. The interviewer expected me to know the trivia answer on how to avoid allocating all that memory, and was clearly disappointed that I didn't know (using a linked list instead of a fixed-size array: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie#Implementation_strategies). This was a principal engineer interviewing another principal engineer, FWIW. The company was Qualtrics, a survey/customer satisfaction company, not a bare-metal algorithms-heavy company.

Obviously you've managed to have a successful career without encountering interview questions that hinge on algorithmic trivia, and I'm not doubting your experience. But saying "it's never happened to me so therefore it can't exist" isn't an especially strong argument.
Neither directional wing gets to claim ownership of that goal. Grassroots "left" and grassroots "right" both desire limits on government power. The professional parties both give the goal some acknowledgement, and then turn around and herd people into their sponsors' top-down authoritarian policies. When you make statements like the above, all you're essentially doing is attacking the other tribe based on their entrenched politicians while giving your tribe a pass based on its grassroots. In actuality, if you want reform you need to do the exact opposite and focus on criticizing your own tribe.

I have a feeling the people working on space centers are more educated and worldly than the average Putin supporter, and a lot of them are probably against the invasion.

Indeed if there was a Putin apparatchik paying attention in faraway (from Moscow) Baikonur, Kazakhstan, he would've probably noticed the yellow and blue suits, realized how it would look, and ordered them to be changed, even though it's "last minute".

I agree that the idea is fine, but this is way way too many questions and would take me more than 60 minutes, especially given that there are no guidelines provided about length of response. I would find this agonizing to complete, personally. A conversation is much less pressure for me. The length and complexity is a red flag, and the questions about high school are just absurd. Who cares?

"Leave It to Beavers" (2018) PBS Nature [53m]
https://g.co/kgs/5yA9R5 :

> A growing number of scientists, conservationists and grass-roots environmentalists have come to regard beavers as overlooked tools when it comes to reversing the disastrous effects of global warming and world-wide water shortages. Once valued for their fur or hunted as pests, these industrious rodents are seen in a new light through the eyes of this novel assembly of beaver enthusiasts and “employers” who reveal the ways in which the presence of beavers can transform and revive landscapes. Using their skills as natural builders and brilliant hydro-engineers, beavers are being recruited to accomplish everything from finding water in a bone-dry desert to recharging water tables and coaxing life back into damaged lands.

Apparently beavers are attracted to the sound of running water.

An audio version of this sort of thing was Chirp. I wrote the original
audio code to implement something that sounded aesthetically pleasing
like a bird twitter, but actually used multi-carrier FM plus error
correction and a whole bunch of stuff to be a "constellation" modem. I
believe the company are still going. IIRC, when I left they'd got to
the point of realising that in a noisy environment, even with echo
cancellation, you couldn't really do serious data transfer - and why
would you if you have Bluetooth anyway.

The real application for these "last meter" contactless ideas that use
stalwart built-in transducers like mic+speaker or LED+camera, are to
send short codes, such as shortened URLs. There's a whole bunch of fun
to had using them for surreptitious advertising and public
steganography.

That does what? Focus on the single-particle case and punt on measurement? My two poster children are the Feynman lectures and Griffiths.

What does your reading list look like? Maybe things have changed since I last looked.

> the measurement problem not a mystery?

It might be a mystery, but it is not the mystery most commonly presented, namely, that particles change their behavior "when somebody looks." This is nonsense. Measurement has nothing to do with "somebody looking", it is just entanglement + decoherence. The only real mystery is the origin of the Born probabilities.

Big if true. Link?
I read title and comments and was ready to be enraged. Heck, I WAS enraged.

And then I clicked the link and... 8ft? That's what, just over 2 meters? Who wants and desires to be within a NBA player's distance of a police interaction anyway? At that point you're not observer or recorder you're a participant. I find the title very very very misleading.

I believe police interactions should be recorded. I believe we should be free to record them. I believe they should be held to higher standard as the powers they get and their propensity to abuse them are huge. But if you're inside 8ft it feels you're just interfering.

Maybe there are angles I have not considered...
We had our pup on an SSRI for about eight months when she was a puppy. We got her at three months old and she had been born in rescue. So we knew her history from birth and knew she wasn't abused, she was just a naturally very anxiety prone dog. After a month of being with us and just not getting over her anxiety (she was basically miserable whenever any humans were around) the vet suggested the drugs. They worked wonders, and after she'd grown a bit and come to accept us as "her people", we weened her off the drugs and all went well.

At four years old, she's still an anxious dog, and always will be, but she's content in her home life now and likes to be with us. She's still very wary of strangers, and really doesn't like being out in more human dense areas, but it's easy enough to keep her activities to things she likes. And she's decided that my mom and her animals are the best thing on the planet, so she gets lots of visits to "Gramma's farm".
Those examples don't really tell much more. I'm guessing there are a lot of assumptions about how Clojure projects are structured.

How exactly are these deployed? Does it use k8s, Docker? Does it integrate with some particular CI setup? How can this be language agnostic? How can a single codebase be separated into multiple running http services without some kind of overarching routing framework? How do services communicate?
I'm not saying you can't discuss the topic. I'm saying that this particular argument is based in false assumptions, and is anyway moot. Pointing out the sterility of this line of discussion is me participating in the discussion, thanks.
Last time I checked the dog butt is covered in fur. Also dogs have a prolapsed anus...

Where are you from that dogs are not seen as family members?

Also what about children? They are not exactly known to be clean either.
Another thing is that it seems you are sampling with replacement. I placed a circle in a rural area (where I grew up) and in one round I got the same street for 3/5 of the selections (and there were 10+ streets within the radius).

> FORTRAN has a REAL16 type

Fortran (note the post-'77 spelling) doesn't. It has KINDs. REALx is a non-standard extension, and there's definitely no requirement to implement 128-bit floating point. I don't know what hardware other than POWER has hardware 128-bit FP (both IEEE and IBM format, with a somewhat painful recent change of the ppc64le ABI default in GCC etc.).
I'm laughing at the word "nudgelord". That's a good one.
> In fact, if my impression of the news is correct, police body cams do more to protect the police from unjustified charges of abuse than they do to protect the victims of police abuse.

This is how they're marketed to police departments, not as cameras that keep cops honest, but as cameras that keep the public from lying about police misconduct. It plays into the trope that is popular with law enforcement, that misconduct doesn't exist, it's just the whiny public and their lawyers who are victimizing cops.

That's why the cameras have buttons that allow cops to turn them off, and why they also often have buttons that require the cops to first turn them on themselves before interactions. Some of them even have buttons that, when pushed, turn the camera on for only 30 seconds.

If the cameras were meant to keep cops honest, those features wouldn't exist. Body cameras are not about documenting potential misconduct, they're about documenting evidence that can later be used against the public in court.
