The frustrating thing is that stuff like traffic data is available, it's just not used in any of the OSM plotters.

I'm not sure if it makes sense to explain physics in English because it tends to get really imprecise and unclear.

That being said, suppose you have a theory which describes physical processes. Given that this theory must hold true for every variation of some parameters (rotation, translation, time, ...) then you can derive some things which are constant (angular momentum, linear momentum, energy, ...). Now one can spend many hours thinking about the relation between energy and time with fuzzy philosophical definitions or one can just accept that the math turns out that way (given some assumptions of that theory).

Unless you're talking about the equivalent of at-will employment (as far as salary and benefits are concerned) with the firing/leaving restrictions of a contract, "contract work" is absolutely not equivalent to what employees typically get in an at-will arrangement.

My experience looking at contract work is "yeah, I'm not really interested in being my own benefits manager unless you're willing to pay me $25/hr more to do that work in addition to my regular job".

I understand "bodily autonomy" is a pretty popular buzz phrase, but does it actually exist? There are plenty of procedures you can't just go in and ask that they perform, and plenty of medical procedures you would be denied unless you met their criteria. If we truly had bodily autonomy, we'd be able to get whatever procedure we wanted done.
What Ben Franklin wrote is completely orthogonal to the legality of abortion. It was a States' rights issue until Roe v. Wade, and now it's a States' rights issue again. There was no single "law" or "right" that ever said abortion was legal, even in the case of Roe v. Wade, which is now considered a flawed ruling.
This would have been illegal in states like New York. The people who are blindly defending this should consider that situations have nuance, and that the child that was born probably also looked like a small newborn instead of a meat bean.

People get to be professors because they spend their time investigating things they don't understand (that is, that they're ignorant about), not because they spend all their time doing things they already understand well. You just aren't used to seeing that process in action (it usually isn't blogged), so you project your own embarrassment onto Lemire, who doesn't deserve it.
Looks like these were more or less voluntary surveys; my guess is the results were biased because those who chose not to get the vaccine are way more likely to just ignore all discussion around it.

Anecdotally, a lot of the non-vax people around me have the “Two years later and I’m still not dead; I’m done with this” attitude towards Covid. The vaxxed people correlate more with those who still care, and are more likely to take a survey on the subject.
That's a separate, third kind of ton (hurray standards!).

The tonne is a metric measurement for 1000kg. American and UK tons are different amounts, but spelled the same way. They're known as short ton and long ton respectively. America also uses the long ton and the metric tonne for some applications without differentiating the names at all.

You clearly didn't read the article, but just by reading the title here, how do you think they knew that these surveys overestimated uptake?

I'll just answer that for you: it's because they compared the numbers from the surveys to the official numbers from the CDC.
Yeah, the "repetition is what makes time go faster" thing never made much sense to me. Few parts of my life have involved more day-to-day sameness and as rigid a schedule as high school. Should have felt fast, right? Nope, felt slow as hell. The less-repetitive summers? Felt about the same speed (so, seemed nice and long—now I blink and it's like "oh shit, the leaves are falling? I meant to plant some tomatoes...").

Meanwhile, the very-novel first few years with kids seemed to go by in a flash. A month feels about a week long to me, now, and has for years.

For me the effect seems disconnected from circumstances, but connected to age—years had been feeling subjectively shorter for quite a while before I had kids, even, and they seemed to just be "getting shorter" as I got older, period, no relation to what's going on.
Private word lists right.
Saying "our understanding of the world is incomplete because it has no explanation for qualia" is a classic, fallacious god of the gaps argument.

In fact we do have the beginnings of viable neuroscientific theories of consciousness, including qualia [1], thus showing that the claims of a hard problem were just the same old smoke and mirrors we've seen time and time again in claims to human specialness, just like with vitalism.

[1] https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2116933119

> and you are saying that our understanding of the world implies that magic doesn’t exist and so I must be mistaken about the magic of my legs and probably their existence as well.

Nah, our only disagreement is over the magic. I don't deny the perceptions of qualia, simply their special, "ineffable", "experiential" character that you implicitly conclude they must have. That's the magic that doesn't fit into our body of knowledge and that's the only "hard problem" of consciousness, a problem that doesn't really exist because it's based on erroneous assumptions, as described in the paper above.

Just like placing a pencil in a glass of water gives the illusion that the water has broken the pencil, so your introspective perceptions trick you into erroneous conclusions about your awareness.
Thanks, this is great advice. Something I've been trying to do, too.
Many, many people do not agree with your insinuation that abortion laws are "tyrrany;" that's why laws are passed in states whose populations have determined to various degrees that abortion must not be allowed.
That's the only interesting point in this thread. "We don't have any advertisers from Nebraska so no customers" would be an interesting case.
If something uniquely identifies someone, it's considered a PII and a salted (but still useful) hash of the IP address is that. At least under GDPR. That means you will need to throw away the salt and have different salt for every instance. At that point, you might as well replace with a random string, and that isn't very useful.

"In the context of the European GDPR the Article 29 Working Party has stated that while the technique of salting and then hashing data “reduce[s] the likelihood of deriving the input value,” because “calculating the original attribute value hidden behind the result of a salted hash function may still be feasible within reasonable means,” the salted-hashed output should be considered pseudonymized data that remains subject to the GDPR."

Under CCPA, I think that is enough, HOWEVER, business must implement business processes that specifically prohibit reidentification. So again, not useful at all in this case.

The question should be is IP address a PII or not. Under CCPA and GDPR it is, but only if it “identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.”
AI and Society
2020. Can we see the bottom of the moat yet? Let's consider the article's key argument: a combination of concerns including microsoft, facebook, and mapbox will kill Google Maps.

Facebook is on the ropes, completely rudderless with a big phone attached to their collective face. Mapillary might as well have been converted to neutrinos when Facebook acquired it.

Microsoft does not now nor did at any time possess a consumer map product that anybody gave a damn about. They do have a nice competitor to Google Earth Engine, that's cool. GEE is awesome by the way and the article fails to discuss it meaningfully.

Mapbox the company completely imploded after taking a huge round from softbank, failing to IPO, and going to war against its own key staff members.

Really the fact that the article goes all the way to the end without even mentioning Esri says a lot.
> I don't remember the norm being "desktop apps which started in an instant 20 years ago".

What keeps happening is-- we get an upgrade, and then have some old applications, and they become "instant" in comparison to our experience with both newer stuff and the application in the past. Then we watch that win clawed away from us.

Of course, it was never instant, even with the old or newer hardware.

My brother spoke a few weeks ago of being awestruck and programs starting "instantly" when he got a hard disk on DOS on the XT. But now I have a better-than-XT-equivalent (9.54MHz V20) with a very fast IO subsystem and I can tell you that it is very much not actually instant.
The fact that you seem to be so brain-boggled about this is... it's just that a lot of very smart people have been warning for years that crypto-currencies are going to run into trouble. That the things they were building were simply parallel (with new names DAO etc) to the global financial system and that previous system has all kinds of controls and regulations that crypto lacked. That if crypto didn't get their shit straight there were going to be some very serious people showing up on their doorsteps.

But crypto-bros will be crypto-bros, wether they are the minnows hoping against hope that they can somehow move from greater fools to slightly less foolish or the sharks grifting all the minnows for every penny they have.. just kept living in denial or .. selling denial in the case of the sharks.. and now here we are.

It turns out that when you ask the global financial systems what they call a service that does what a mixer does, they reply 'a money laundering operation operating in plain sight'.

Kicad dev here, the autorouter was never part of KiCad. It was a third party tool that had to be separately installed, KiCad's only integration was a button. (There is one GPL-violating fork of that autorouter that has a kicad plugin that adds that button back)

The real problem is that third party tool went abandoned for years due to a major CAD company claimed copyright ownership due to the author's former employment with them (the traditional ownership of IP in employment).

That former author of the router, even though he disputed the timeline of the code's creation being outside employment, basically said "I'm in retirement on a fixed income, fuck this I ain't dealing with it" and abandoned the router. Then over the last 8 years there were random forks that quickly petered out because well, it's all very very niche software.

The KiCad project isn't touching that code due to (a) it being in Java when everyone is a C/C++ domain expert (b) the legal claims by that big company basically make that specific codebase poison so we need to stay away from it.

As for creating a new autorouter, it has come up multiple times. The problem is, anyone can create a autorouter but a good one is a whole different ballgame The best way to describe the problem is while the PCB layout is 2D. Routing is actually a multi-dimensional problem requiring input of all kinds of parameters to do it good. It's just we are a small group of electrical engineering oriented guys and we just don't have the interest in spending our limited free time on it.

We are totally open to somebody contributing it, but alas, everyone expects us, the active contributors to do it instead. You know, that horrible pitfall of open source.

Nope. The equivalent in C++ is not

std::cout << "hello world" << std::endl;

but is, rather,

std::cout << "hello world\n";

The std::endl doesn't just print an '\n' character, it also does a buffer flush.

as much as i wish it were true, it certainly isn't evaporating because of apple maps, as implied by the post. apple maps is serviceable for directions, but on just about everything else, it's inferior to google maps (and i say this very begrudgingly because i'm no fan of google).

he notes 'look around' as an example of apple reaching parity, but that's such a minor feature, and a great example of where apple has misplaced its priorities. apple needs to do a much better job of getting accurate POI (places of interest) and being able to search on those on just about any facet a user can imagine. beyond the basics of roads, addresses, and directions, that's the killer feature of maps. instead, they create slightly better 3D renderings of urban buildings and tout that as some huge UX improvement in their annual keynote.

apple, please actually improve the killer feature and not everything else. i want to retire google maps (and waze) for good on my devices.

Our situation is very much the same. In fact, it was constantly seeing my wife check-in with her family that encouraged me to do the same. About a month ago I called my grandmother and had a two-hour convo and I learned that my mother never wanted her to have my number, for whatever reason. I regret not thinking of reaching out to her sooner but we're both glad I did.

My parents divorced when I was 13 or so but dual-parented. My dad was very focused on trying to get me to be more "macho" and my mom didn't seem to care much about whatever I had going on. So, I kept to myself; reading books, dreaming up inventions, sketching, &c. When college came, I found out via campus security that I did NOT have a college fund and was subsequently removed from campus. For some reason, my mom seemed angry at me for being home even though she's the one who bragged to everyone for YEARS that her kids had a college fund and never had to worry about working while focusing on education.

I'm starting to feel resentment as I recall things so I'll just say this: my feeling weren't considered when I was a child/teen, I didn't have help in early adulthood, and I was setup to fail (credit/identity theft victim, per mother). As a result, I had to learn how to live in the "real world" without a safety net and try to figure out how to forgive people because these people would never apologize (or even remember their actions).

Doing all this got me through all right. I'm self-taught, have a pretty cool job, and live relatively stress-free in a safe community with a great school district. Nearly ever day is sunny but having someone you trust that can tell you objective things about yourself is a must.

Thinking of others when you've only thought of yourself for two decades is hella difficult but not impossible. I make sure to call my grandmother at least every two weeks. I look for ways to make my wife's life easier around the house. I'm more productive in my downtime so I can make progress on my personal projects so I can be present when the family's doing something. It's a lot of work but my life has demonstrably improved.

> I once worked on a Java-based server at Google

This is kind of a fair comment, but kind of not, because Java performance and GC internals have really advanced a lot in the last decade. It would really help if you qualified approximately when this was.

> Sadly the garbage collection debate is full of people who want GC to be the answer to everything

Good point. I think more recently, the Java world is very aware of this. Native and off heap memory has been getting more use in performance sensitive stuff for quite a while. You can totally just (essentially) malloc and free in Java, if you really need to for performance.

That said, if you want to be able to make your code accessible to a wider audience, GC is a must. There are tons of junior and midlevel developers who don't really have experience working with non-GC application code (and in many cases are intimidated by it!), and you will be restricted from hiring any of them if you use a non-GC language.

If that's ok, then that's ok, but with Java you can still do a little off heap stuff in the critical part you need to, encapsulate it behind a safe API, while letting the juniors run amok in the rest of the codebase.
>We have millions of people training other people to drive every day and they can't even take over right away when there is a problem.

We don't. Over here driving school is several months of training by licensed drivers in cars with dual control so the teacher has full control over the car in case of an emergency. the idea that your Uncle Bob teaches you how to drive would probably be considered insane. The traffic related death rate here is also like 4x lower than in the US. This kind of stuff isn't normal.

Having computers that make video games from the 90s look bug free drive two tons of steel around at lethal velocities is bonkers. Public roads should not be playgrounds for 'beta tests'.
