The tax will be based on the amount of CO2 you emit. High cardio jobs such as construction, delivery and politiciking will get tax credits to cover the cost. CrossFit practitioners will pay full cost, possibly even an excessive penalty. There will be a standard amount, but any smartwatch meeting the appropriate govt standard can be used to itemize if you are more sedentary.

Under this tax regime as long as the homeless person makes sure to promptly file the appropriate forms each year they should not be at risk of jail time.

Me too. I bought one for a trip around Europe in 2010 or so. I wanted something:

* small and light

* cheap enough that I wouldn't cry if it was lost or stolen in sketchy hostels

* capable of using the web and checking email

Since there wasn't an iPad back then, and the iPhone was an expensive theft target, the eee was a perfect fit. The fact that it ran Linux was also cool. A year or two later I bought a MacBook Air and used that for the same purpose (more expensive, but I wasn't staying in hostels much at that point).

I'm not sure if the author was a child at the time or what, but these obviously fit a niche.

I love this app! It's a little culturally/regionally specific (things like herbs and the types of tomatoes). But that's fine, hopefully this inspires people to do a similar app with thai curry, coconut milk, etc.

One of the reasons I cook is because it's possible to taste food you'd never taste before. I can't get a good halal spaghetti bolognese. Sure, there are restaurants, but they tend to be way overpriced for something that's an everyday recipe. I think it would be interesting to teach people about more exotic ingredients as well.

Also I've been cooking for decades, and even did a recipe startup. And yet I've learned a lot from the beginner tier alone. Big fan of this.
The fact that you think state capitalism or private capitalism are the only options is kind of depressing.

It’s not just that senators can front run institutional investors, it’s that they can make the rules that cause a stock to rise or fall. Allowing them to trade in financial markets directly creates perverse incentives. If they want to buy funds, bonds, or toss money into a 401k that’s fine. Hell, but property. Just not publicly traded stocks.

> Equally possible is that amazon's S3 margins are getting better.

Which is acceptable if they're providing better value in features. From casually looking around it seems that Backblaze's B2 is much cheaper, but doesn't have a good story around reliability, namely uptime guarantees and simple multi-region redundancy. If Backblaze could match AWS in this regard, and with their Bandwidth Alliance with Cloudflare, they could provide better downward pressure on pricing.
Oh yes! Our standard Ubuntu 18/20 OS images have nvidia-driver-515 + Docker + NVIDIA-Docker2 preinstalled. The all three ML images also come with CUDA if you need that. We'll probably add cloudinit support sometime so that you'll be able to script background workloads that autoshutdown the VM once completed, but at the moment, you'd have to manually SSH into your VM and run it...

I wouldn’t be so sure about that.

“Lilies” may figuratively refer to “women” as a group of persons named “Lily”. If so, attending a party filled with “lilies” would mean to literally (literally) feed among them, presuming snacks and refreshments were served at said party.
I'd probably be fine with knowing I had to excel if it was fully accepted they were genuinely the bottom ten percent of performers. Everything I read as an outsider from people working in such places seems to suggest otherwise though. People who work hard but have a PM cancel a project becoming low performers. Stories about people who ignore tech debt, ignore bugs, and launch a new chat app become top performers. I don't know if it's as prevalent as the comments often suggest.

Not a robotics expert. But my understanding of the effect of input/motion models on the state estimation of Kalman filters is that it conditions the error covariance of the state estimate.

So, when the quality of measurements is very high (almost no noise), then the motion model provides very little benefit. And when the measurement quality is very low, the motion model reduces the error ellipse around the real state of the system.

So, even when there are inputs and a motion model you could imagine the Kalman Filter as a frequency-domain filter (E.G. IIR/FIR filter), where the tap weights are being updated based on some known function.

If the quality of the measurements are high enough, and the sampling frequency is high enough. Then the Kalman filter should be able to converge to a very good estimate of state, even with no motion model right? In which case it would have the exact same characteristics as an adaptive, slowly time-varying frequency-domain filter.
I'd say it's less about the definition than who gets to write the lead line, on the basis that that's as far as many people will go in using a link or screenshot to win internet arguments.

I have no strong feelings either way about the wording. The lead of an article is generally a place to introduce a concept and explain why it matters in a few sentences, but the '2 quarters of negative growth' heuristic for measuring (rather than defining) a recession is so widespread that it's not really an object of controversy.

Had the person who changed it offered that their aim was economy and clarity I doubt much argument would have broken out, though editing for style is best done at a low point of the news cycle around any given topic. But responding to the lukewarm reception of the rewrite with accusations of narrative warfare, censorship, and so on look a little forced, to put it mildly.

Apps like Ecoute are alternatives and better in some respects (better navigation IMO), but worse in others.
That sounds accurate.

My point is that if you're being subjected to the rubber-hose treatment, nothing's going to get you out of it. Any actor who will start down that path will likely take it all the way to the finish, extracting whatever value they can from you until there's none left to extract.

The actual answer also depends on how fast you intend to consume your cheese.

If you are not a big cheese eater, like me, the correct answer is cut of the amount you intend to eat, wrap the rest well in cling wrap and put the rest in the freezer.
You know what's actually "calorie" inefficient? Eating leaves. Because that's exactly what humans are poor at and animals like cows are very good at (though technically they're digesting the bacteria that eat the predigested vegetation).

Plants are largely composed of cellulose, which is not digestible by humans. Just because we pass it through and just because a study found trace amounts of cellulose-consuming bacteria in our gut doesn't mean we are well developed to handle cellulose. Those are "calories" we are pooping out.

If you were to just look at the carbohydrate content of plants, well, if we reductively look at the energy density of macronutrients, sorry, carbs of any kind are not as energy dense as the fats from meat.

As an aside, this is one chief reason why calories, which are a measure of heat, are a poor metric for nutrition.

> Pastures and farmland are not effective carbon sinks.

Neither is any kind of farmland, whether it's cows that are being raised or tomatoes.

Carbon sinks only mean something in the case of fossil carbon being introduced to the atmospheric carbon cycle, but that doesn't matter anyway because no amount of trees added to the earth are going to offset anthroprogenic climate change in any appreciable way.

> Most land used by cattle was earlier forestland or other land that served as a carbon sink.

Not all forest land is a carbon sink, and not all forest land is woodland.

Also, I would really appreciate some evidence for this.

> For example, one of the major causes of rainforest destruction in Brazil is cattle ranching.

As if demolishing the Amazon is a prerequisite to cattle ranching, as opposed to something people do because the economic incentives are there, which has nothing to do with whether raising cattle in and of itself is harmful to the climate. Tons of beef are is raised on the Great Plains and has been for over a century, and the Great Plains is nothing close to the kind of carbon sink you're thinking of.
I didn't say that I would control what people eat. I was just saying that the amount of meat eaten in the west is not normal historically.

I like that the app tells you it's okay to use boullion and even proposes paste as an alternative. And it tells you when not to use canned tomatoes. So it's not violating this principle.

> They can eat grass. But they don't. They eat corn that is subsidized by the government

Putting aside the ridiculousness of the Big Agra's bedroom activity with the Government, what's your point? Corn is a type of grass after all. The same rules apply. If there's a problem with how corn in particular is raised and transported for cattle feed, that's really not central to whether raising cattle is bad for the climate in and of itself. Cattle can and are fed on grass all the time, even in cases when the cattle is grain-fed in the months before they are slaughtered.

> The article specifically pointed out that the fraud charges are based on a single accusation of a former Ecuadoran judge

The article was simply incorrect to do so. Again, there was an actual film crew following Donziger around; a key scene was cut from the theatrical release because someone on Donziger's team said that what it showed was "so serious we could lose everything".

> He since recanted his false testimony.

He has recanted some testimony. Not all.

And to be clear, the options here seem to be 1) bribed by Chevron to falsely claim he was bribed by Donziger or 2) bribed by both Donziger and later Chevron.

He clearly has lied in exchange for money; now we're just trying to decide which one of his paid-for stories is true, but there's no particular reason to think any of them are true.

> The "both-sidesing" it as you are doing, you very nicely demonstrate how it's so easy to fall into the trap of being "fair" but actually siding with the wrongdoer.

The problem with cases like this is that there are a lot of different sides, and it's not clear any of them are "good guys", with the exception of the actual residents of Lago Agrio, who unfortunately seem likely to lose come what may.

In any case, if two wrongdoers end up in a dispute, if you pick a side, you'll end up siding with a wrongdoer, yes. Which I would suggest you are, in fact, doing. Sometimes neither side is worth backing.

South Korea's KF-21 doubtlessly isn't as good as the F-35 (no internal weapons bay for one thing) but it seems like it should be better, or at least stealthier, than any of the European 4th generation fighters. And South Korea created it for a small fraction of what the F-35 cost to develop. I think there is a lot of room for Europe to produce better fighters without the massive America-style spending. Politics/bureaucracy is probably a major impediment though.
even as a static model, it is not a low pass filter.

I think you're right.

Once a target has shown that they have hidden something at a lower level, which only they were able to demonstrate existed, the attacker knows the target has prepared an in-depth plausibly-deniable defense.

They will therefore have no reason to trust the target's claims that "No really, that's the worst thing I have," and will have a very strong reason to doubt it.

Articles can go in a section, but an article "of" a section implies that being contained by a section is an ~identifying feature of the article, which is at odds with our intuitions of how articles and sections work. "I read the first article in the Editorials section" is, at least to my brain, a perfectly cromulent usage that puts the "article" subordinate to the "section", though.
> i find even pixel phones to be sort of slow after a couple years into software updates

I assume that's because they're Google's software updates. Removing all Google apps, and most phones are fast. My BlackBerry KeyOne, with its midrange chipset, is still fast five years after it was released. Hell, I wanted a smaller form factor for a few days, and threw my SIM into my Nexus 5. Changing apps, installing updates, and navigating with OSM were all just as fast as 2013, when the phone was new. I even flipped through a few Tiktok videos to try it out - and while the first video stuttered a bit, everything after that was still quick.

Google Apps, like Google Play Services, the Play Store, and especially Maps, all seem to expand over time to consume all available resources. OS updates don't slow down your phone - the software you just want to run (and are pushed heavily to keep up-to-date) simply keeps getting heavier.

The eee PC was also the original netbook used for the "booting Linux in five seconds" presentation at the first Linux Plumbers Conference: https://lwn.net/Articles/299483/

That presentation inspired a whole wave of boot optimizations across the industry, that recalibrated the expectations for what "boot fast" meant. If you look at some systems at the time, "boots in 30 seconds" was a selling point.

Today, you can reasonably expect a system to be done booting in a second, with the slowest portion of booting any secure system being the user typing a passphrase.

Just a side note here, it seems that these are spot instances, whereas all our VMs are non-interruptible. So there is a bit of difference (e.g. you probably wouldn't do a weeklong Blender render on a GCP VM if it could be interrupted and lose your work, whereas you can definitely run it on TensorDock because our VMs are reserved).

Of course, you can set up data checkpointing to save your data, but overall, it is a bit of an extra hassle to run on spot/interruptible instances, and if you do get interrupted, you are wasting valuable time waiting for stock to free up again.
Sounds good. So what is that amount exactly? Please give us a specific number, and show your work.

In my experience the valuation is the starting point, rather than an extrapolation. During the investment pitch the company might say it will be worth $5 billion based on X Y and Z factors (like growth, market size etc), then they go out and get investors to buy little pieces of it.
