Does sound like 447, and a result of the airbus’ dual stick system. Boeing’s yoke system is connected between the pilot and copilot, so much easier to detect opposite inputs. Also the yoke is right in front of each pilot, instead of on the opposite sides as is the case with the dual sticks in airbus planes, which could be a source of confusion/opposite input problems.

I doubt there is enough demand for them to invest the hundreds of millions per aircraft to provide this service. In addition, each of the routes they would be able to provide would remove gates for other, more profitable flights. Another factor would be turnaround, i.e. cleaning and resetting a ‘pet-friendly’ flight would probably take longer then a regular flight, increasing the at-gate time and thus reducing the number of flights that could use that gate.
I believe there was a point in time where you could use the GPU on the 3DS to read / write anywhere in memory.
It's a thought experiment. Don't worry about the specifics. It's that most people normally have a visceral reaction one way or another. But in many cases there could be a voluntary solution where all parties are better off.

For instance, consider a noisy neighbor is throwing a party. Suppose I complain but he really values the party and offers me $100 to let him keep the party going another hour. He obviously values it more than $100 so he's better off as am I. Similarly I could pay him to shut off the party, in which case we're also both better off.

I didn't mean it literally like the drone payers should pay to use their drones in the park, although that's not a bad idea. The park goers could enjoy better service and accept some noise, making everyone better off.

I just thought it was funny seeing someone argue about this and it reminded me of Coase and his work
More importantly he learned how to manage genius. At his fund it’s not one or two people who are “the man”, each and every one of them are “the man”. This is what makes their outperformance so consistent. It’s incredibly hard to manage one genius in a room full of people across the IQ bell curve, let alone when all the employees (partners?) are in the 98th percentile..
This is a huge issue in security. At all levels, not just senior management.
>I haven't seen any peripheral that still uses USB-A in a long time.

Took me a second to see the difference in what you were doing between what I was doing.

In your case you're making a Kia car by making a regular car with a Kia motor.

In my case (at work) I'm making a type KiaCar struct { Car ... }.

Which is why I have to link a concrete type in the KiaCar to the Car if I want methods with Car receivers and KiaCar receivers to use the same concrete Motor.

I do like what you've written above though. I'll consider if I can use that instead of what I'm doing currently.

I'm just not entirely sure how I'd write methods for the KiaCar that knows what its concrete type is.
Twitter needs a more of a kind of "personal home page" feel to it.

Like a bigger/longer section down the side where someone can list a series of links to pages or tweets.

And it needs to do something better about "blog-tweets" - twitter is basically becoming a blogging platform but without the features to really support it.

From the context it seems like a more common analogy would be better to illustrate, rather than using an example of something that almost never happens.

A "use it or lose it" model to defang patentholders who don't manufacture their patents is a good idea, as well as using them as assets.
Nearly all of those histories about patent trolling are for code running in a general purpose computer, with your standard I/O peripherals and the only effect on the real world being changing pixels on a screen.

AFAIK those patents are illegal on every single country. But it doesn't stop honest people from losing fortunes over them.
> relies on the efforts of software engineers to design and build your primary products, they should have the primary equity in the company.

The average tenure at Google is 4 years. This means that most current Google's have joined when the company was already at sky high valuation. They made incremental improvements to the product line. But arguing that they should own the majority of the shares is just ridiculous. Think about it: if google had made no new development in the last 4 years, how much would it still be worth ? The answer is: not as much as today, but probably quite a lot.

Current employees thus deserve a part of the pie, as they are the one tending for it. But when they joined the pie was already very nice, and they had 0 impact on that. Not with their work nor their investment, so they can't claim that part for themselves.
Game engine development is so ridiculously hard. The industry has plenty of little libraries that do some significant upfront lifting, but there's just plenty out there that isn't done for you. Stuff you wouldn't even think about until you realize you want a feature that isn't there. And the further you progress, and the more you learn, the fewer references and prior art you can turn to, because the combinatorics of finding someone who has built up all of those areas of discipline becomes exponentially harder to find.

There are still proprietary technologies today that are decades old that the free and open source community has not recreated simply because for all of the people that work in this space, open source and commercial, there are just not many people at the high end of the scale working on those interesting problems. Those problems are the ones that generally become commercial solutions because no one else is doing it.

After over 14 years of development, I would love to hear what little big problems like this the authors came across.

That’s not how that works. You don’t just “declare” they’re a service animal and all is well. In fact, even real service animals often have issues in spite of the laws supposedly ensuring their access.

Hi everyone. I've been busy with a lot of other projects, but I've decided to take a shot at this one, since I like procedural content generation so much. I'm calling it a simplified version of the WFC because I'm taking ideas from it and using on my map generation. In this first version I have only three simple rules for 3 tiles. Sand, grass and water. Sand can be placed around anything, grass can only be place next to sand and water can be placed only around sand (all tiles can be placed around itself). I'm also considering a neighborhood of 8 instead of 4.

For a next version, I'll try to implement different rules top, bottom, left and right neighbors, with more tiles. I'll try to follow the concept of entropy as well. Hope you like it. The code is in main.js, Map and Texture class are only helpers, to show the isometric tiles.

No one is making their animal a service animal to save money. They're doing it to avoid putting their animal under the plane. The "saving money by making your dog an ESA or service animal" was just airline propaganda.
Apparently you take an extreme position on this, in which it is not possible for a society to adopt political processes that end up asserting the collective right to some part of the society's economic output and a mechanism for obtaining that based on taxation ... at least, not without that being termed "slavery".

I have no doubt that you can find some sort of analogy that explains how slavery and taxation are equivalent. Good work. I'll be moving on.
Huh? A kid doesn't need to be disabled to be loud and obnoxious. Hell, neither does an adult.
> If IP is real property, it should be taxed.

As someone who thinks that the underlying concept of a patent is worthwhile (giving an independant inventor a bit of lead time for their invention against huge companies who could easily copy-cat), I seriously love that idea! Bonus point for somehow scaling the taxation based on real sales vs. lawsuits.
I need to investigate this "maths disqualifier" because it completely blows my mind that companies are actively patenting the application of statistical machine learning models to their domain.

For example Xometry has successfully patented "METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MACHINE LEARNING PREDICTIONS OF MANUFACTURING PROCESSES"[0]. To me there is literally nothing novel here, they are just describing the results of using an existing stats tool in the "manufacturing" domain, preventing other companies from sharing how they do stuff like this for fear of being sued.

I read that patent as saying if you work for a CNC machine shop you can't run random forest on a CSV of your own data unless you get granted a license to by a potential competitor.

Governments do this with deferred compensation schemes like defined benefit pensions and retiree healthcare. There are conveniently no laws around calculating the cost of benefits, and of course no recourse for today’s leaders not funding them in the first place, so they can hide a lot of today’s labor costs in understated pension and retiree healthcare liabilities.
Holo glitter works in the radar domain. So, its passive tech which has an effect.

EInk has a refresh time. Which is a significant mismatch to the flight speed of devices which seek to mask themselves against changing background. More to the point, optical detection is the least worry in this space. by the time it's visible in motion, its already a problem. '

For on-the-ground, its easier to put it under a canopy.

EInk does nothing for radar, or thermal imaging. So your proposed conspiracy is to defeat human eyes, which rarely if ever are the first-spotters. The circumstances where using radar breaches your own privacy are understood. I would expect an ML vision system could defeat this anyway. (and I say that as a bit of a long-term non-believer in AI)

I love a good conspiracy, but alas, I think this isn't it. The grassy knoll is just, after all, a patch of grass, and not an EInk facsimile, in my personal opinion.

The population growth of the United States will never flatline for any appreciable amount of time. In other words, we'll never run out of workers. This is for two reasons:

(1) We border a rapidly developing nation to the south (Mexico), with significant economic ties at that border.

(2) The United States is, hands down, the most effective society at integrating immigrants and allowing them to be productive. We can always, always import more workers, and people will always, always want to come here.

> designate the behavior to be used for the next message it receives.

I think that is the key insight of actor-systems.

Actors don't have state. But they can calculate their replacement based on their immutable data. Thus the way an actor at a given address evolves is described by the functions that calculate the successor actors.

Thus you get Pure Functional Programming implemented on top of a fabric of
distributed evolving entities. You can understand the behavior and evolution of such a system as a composition of function-calls, where functions always produce
the same result for the same arguments.

I'm on IRC and and the project's own Discourse forums, plus two independent different Discord servers, at all times. There's also the bugtracker, currently with about 2700 open bug reports.

The comparison is DNA-to-survey and then breed-to-breed, yeah? So they're not controlling for breed or owner bias. Asking an owner what they think of their precious dog is sure to give you junk data. I don't see what you're missing.
Completely agree with you. Not only that, but Snap (it seems) have done a great job in limiting the features so it only focuses on their core users use case.

They didn't go for a skydio "follow me when I go for a run" they don't have a flight path. Though you likely could get the drone into trouble if you tried, a 30 second clip is enough for it to start flying, you move a few feet away, it follows you with a very close range, and then it is ready to land again.

A great example of constraints making a better/simpler product.
With or without, tons of companies will do "due diligence" and will look for your FB and Insta feeds, just in case you are drunk or drugged or whatever might seem inappropriate.

Not sure it was “the left’s” fault.

It was Olof Palme, a famously leftist prime minister that facilitated refugee immigration – but Sweden also had much more “aggressive” integration policies. There was more effort put into training to get immigrants into the labor market, housing was less segregated… a lot of that ended and it will continue to get worse as the country turns right wing.

But it’s going to happen with other staples of Swedish society. Give it just a year or two until there’s a “is Swedish welfare unsustainable?” and the answer will be the same: No, the right is just strangling it.

"Interesting" cannot be defined in an automatically verifiable way.

"Useful & short" however can be. Useful proofs are ones that solve the problems that are placed on the chain with real money rewards. The length/size of the proof is trivially verifiable. Useful AND short is the combination that's required. "Useful" alone would result in duplicate spam. Merely "short" would result in bulk generation of useless proofs. "Useful and short" means that the core of the graph would be optimised much like ants looking for food. Shorter AND useful paths to many goals are automatically rewarded. Longer paths can exist, but as they get more used, the incentive to try and optimise them rises dramatically to the point where even humans might want to contribute clever shortcuts manually.

> I'd really like to avoid getting into Elixir/Erlang world or any kind of interpreted language that will complicate the deployment process

For what it's worth, the deployment story for Elixir is great. Erlang has a built-in concept of "releases", which Elixir supports natively.

In essence, it compiles all dependencies and outputs a directory containing the VM, and all the compiled bytecode. After that, you just copy the directory to /app on your runtime container (or whatever other kind of deployment method you're using), and it runs fine from there.
I fucking hate software patents. The best part about taxing them, like this, is that SW patents become a major financial liability.
