Even with leverage one would assume that a 1:1 backed asset would survive intact with the people loaning out their coins taking the losses in the case of a run.

If they engage in fractional reserve issuance (which it appears they do) then all holders of the coin will be subject to losses if they can’t cash out before the reserves run out. Pretty much guaranteed run by that point.

> I don't accept that advertising copy makes operating a car more or less dangerous.

Advertising copy doesn't alter the car's safety, but it can make the driver of a car more or less dangerous. Tesla sells their cars as being capable of fully driving themselves, hands people a contract with a bunch of fine print saying "actually you still need to pay attention", and then acts shocked when drivers respond to the flashy marketing rather than to the fine print.

It's absurd that people still defend Tesla after all that marketing and place full blame on the drivers. Yes the drivers were careless, but Tesla intentionally created an environment in which drivers could believe their cars would take care of themselves!
Of course as the number of apps that are coddled or given special treatment gets smaller, the easier it gets to coddle or give special treatment to apps. But how does that help the Play Store overall? How is it fair that a few developers are given special treatment, while everyone else still suffers from the same arbitrary rejections?
The ‘ethics’ section seems surprisingly cursory and lacking in references.

“The ability to memorize large databases of facts could have potential ramifications for society, especially if those databases include sensitive personal information or copyrighted works. However, one advantage of using an external memory is that the memory can be easily cleared of all such information”

That’s it? Just ‘may have ramifications’?

No concern that this enables ‘Tay’-like failure modes where a system can be manipulated through input into generating particular output?

Or even just grappling with whether adding ‘memory of experiences’ to a language model might open the door to creating a system that has beliefs, or opinions…? and that maybe there might be some ethical concerns with just wiping that out?

The "exorbitant privilege" usually belongs to a government with a vast military, and/or substantial colonial possessions -- something that allows force to be used in an emergency. There is a reason why the US dollar, but not the Swiss franc, is an international reserve currency.
Those can just be added without "TODO" then? You're explicitly saying that you're marking things you are not likely to do as to-do, that seems like a bad idea whatever your preference wrt automation is.
I don't know anything about the Teslas driving themselves, but on the safety front you need to take into account how absolutely horrible most human drivers' skills are. 90% of them (sure, me included... no, wait, I don't drive... I do have the license, though, so I might as well be included) think they are "above average" and that other users of the road are the problem - how would they ever improve their skills with that mindset?

On the other hand, I don't think I will believe the problem to be solved before I see a self-driving bike. I mean, I would propel it, while it would steer without my input (other than setting destination). Once I do, I will have near total confidence in robo-taxis.
Great question. Definitely sensitivity / specificity balance is a crucial topic in AI-assisted diagnosis. I have to admit this model and website for mammography was done in 2018 and might not be the leading solution out there. At the moment, if I want to improve the results of my earlier work, I will add additional stage of radiomics model to do false positive reduction, and in the mean time lower the threshold in the first model to increase sensitivity. By doing this, combining the feature extractions of deep learning and the past 20 years of knowledge in medical imaging using Radiomics might give better performance in terms of sensitivity / specificity.

There are options other than "no regulation" and "exactly the level and type of regulation we have now".

Service folks almost always work in shifts already, many are part time. One of the benefits of moving up the ladder is to get holidays off. I think this is the only way it could possibly work.

How a cognitive bias is blocking the rise of electric cars
So they can watch everything that you do and then punish you if you look on the wrong parts of the internet instead of blocking the wrongs parts of the internet and tackling the root of the problem in the first place.

That process says more about the people in power than the people using the internet especially when you see how leading search engines can be with their results, its like they want you to fail in order to consolidate their top tier position in society, intellectual feudalism.

My point was that it might have been easier to argue against Brexit, that those arguments might be more readily at hand. Not every debate has equal evidence on both sides; in fact, that's a rarity. Usually, it's easier to make an argument one way than the other. That doesn't mean the other side is completely invalid, it just means it's harder to argue. And if you're not being compensated, it's less appealing to do that extra work.
No police that have been a part of any instances of civil forfeiture can possibly be reformed to a point where they should be allowed to hold any position of power whatsoever.

Finally. Apple can keep their Walled Garden all they want, but preventing other people from running arbitrary software on their own hardware is the sort of thing we would have called "unthinkable" in the late 90s. Hopefully this sets a precedent for more open hardware and more competitive software. It's always baffling to look at the responses to this, with people hating on the EU for making these decisions. Don't agree with it? Keep using iOS then. Nobody is forcing you to change your device. If this really is a useless feature, then it won't matter in the end. Net win!

That's a very good point and it can go both ways. There may be some use cases that currently are not acceptable for concrete due to its bulk but if reduced by 30% it becomes viable. I haven't read the archive link yet but if this also extends the life of concrete and reduces maintenance costs, that's a win too.
"They found that while bullets traveling on a perfectly vertical trajectory tumble on the way down, creating turbulence that reduces terminal velocity below that which would kill, it was very difficult to fire a bullet in this near-ideal vertical trajectory. In practice, bullets were likely to remain spin-stabilized on a ballistic trajectory and fall at a potentially lethal terminal velocity."

So I'm not completely wrong. Of course, if you fire a bullet non-vertically, it's much more likely to have a lethal velocity when it returns.

Tether fud in 2022 is truly embarassing and slanderous.

The only way tether fails is if the situation repeats in some way - but it appears American government finally gave up on trying to destroy usdt.

As long as the US government itself doesn't try to destroy them again - in few years tether is going into hundreds of billions.

The 9th amendment certainly covers it. It says:

> The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

The upcoming court ruling, denies and disparages a right that was retained by the people for the last 50 years. In fact, it leads me to believe that the very reasoning used by the SC according to the memo is unconstitutional (they argue that since the word abortion doesn't appear in the constitution that it can't be considered by the court, a position that goes against the text and spirit of the 9th amendment)
I am almost always considering "what did it take to make this thing work, and why did they do it this way?" Sometimes it is at a high level such as UX design or architecture, but more frequently it is akin to "gratitude" strategies where you look at a random object in your life, examine it and consider all the labor and materials and knowledge that went into it. It can get overwhelming: how many screws are in this window frame, what are they made of, where were they made, what does the screw factory look like, what were the logistics of getting that factory set up, what equipment is involved in making sure the screws are to the correct specifications, how are people trained on that equipment, who designed it, how many screws were needed to make that equipment in the first place, and how did THOSE screws come about? and on and on like that.

It's often a fun thought experiment, and really helps me appreciate all the little things that let me lead the life I do, even when that life is not going as well as I'd like.
I'm curious to if/how this relates to corporations having free speech rights under Citizens United vs. FEC.

I think the point I would emphasize and criticize about your remarks is not that "Googlers love AMP", but that "Googlers believe that users love AMP". One thing I hope that you will learn with time is that Google religiously indoctrinates a trust in data that is extremely, extremely wrong. And that Googlers are taught to shut down arguments based on the inherent trust in that internal data that they obviously can't share publicly or permit external review of.

Tether has attestations, too. They're not audits; Tether got caught moving money in right before an attestation check, and moving it out right after.

https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2021/attorney-general-james-...

> In the face of persistent questions about whether the company actually held sufficient funds, Tether published a self-proclaimed ‘verification’ of its cash reserves, in 2017, that it characterized as “a good faith effort on our behalf to provide an interim analysis of our cash position.” In reality, however, the cash ostensibly backing tethers had only been placed in Tether’s account as of the very morning of the company’s ‘verification.’

> On November 1, 2018, Tether publicized another self-proclaimed ‘verification’ of its cash reserve; this time at Deltec Bank & Trust Ltd. of the Bahamas. The announcement linked to a letter dated November 1, 2018, which stated that tethers were fully backed by cash, at one dollar for every one tether. However, the very next day, on November 2, 2018, Tether began to transfer funds out of its account, ultimately moving hundreds of millions of dollars from Tether’s bank accounts to Bitfinex’s accounts. And so, as of November 2, 2018 — one day after their latest ‘verification’ — tethers were again no longer backed one-to-one by U.S. dollars in a Tether bank account.

An attestation tells you what the bank balance is. An audit tells you where it comes from, who has claim on it, etc.

I think gwd's point is, the "thing" wouldn't be the subject of a case. It would be siezed as evidence of a crime, with the subject of the case being the John Doe owner. If the owner is identified/comes forward, they must be charged with the crime. If not convicted, their property is returned. If no owner is found after some period (say, a year or more), the "thing" is considered abandoned property. Basically, eliminating "in rem".

I see three points in your post:

1.
You want to tell something 'unrelated to this topic'. That's a bad idea because it clutters our discussions. I assume you have some inner pressure and strong emotions about the windmill topic and want to release it.

2.
You're picking on city people. They don't notice the decrease of forests because they don't see it when they look out of the window?

3.
You are telling us that the decline of the forests in Germany are caused by… windmills? Really? That's so wrong that I don't know where to start to explain.

I don't know where the hatred against windmills or against 'city people' comes from. But its origin is certainly not windmills.

We need the windmills to fight the decline of the forests, you know. And to fight mass extinction. We need the windmills to avert the demise of many species. Including our own.
OP is probably talking about the legality of American hospitals using this software in an official capacity like some Chinese hospitals seem to be doing.

I'm completely unfamiliar, but it wouldn't surprise me if for diagnosing? software like this to be used in an official medical capacity in America it would need to go through some sort of particular vetting process because if it isn't it might leave hospitals who use it open to lawsuits.
