I did read the EAD. I even quoted it.

> That's probably not an easy thing with a computer undoing your work every few seconds and fighting you for control.

Having the trim start running again every few seconds is EXACTLY WHY there's a trim cutout switch. A few seconds is enough time to hit the thumb trim switches right on the column under your thumb, and the then hit the cutoff switch which is right there on the center console.

I don't dispute the timeline. But the fact remains, using the electric trim switches to return trim to normal, then turning it off, would have worked.

The stab trim does not move that fast, they had time to turn it off after trimming to normal.

Thanks for the link. At one point, it was clear the EA pilots did use the electric trim switches to override MCAS. They did turn off the trim at one point. What they did not do was follow the instructions in the EAD.

> maybe this could've been saved

The first incident shows the procedure works. Trim to normal, turn it off. That's all there is to it.

The thing about the Emergency Airworthiness Directive is it came out after the first MAX crash, and was about how to not die if it happens to you. If you were a MAX pilot, wouldn't you take extra care to read that EAD, understand it, and remember it? I cannot fathom ignoring it.
I'd argue that context is more of a prerequisite than consciousness. Nature is art, but rocks aren't conscious. They're beautiful because they exist in a grounded reality that we can contextualize. AI-generated imagery can still be beautiful, just in a different way. Refusing to acknowledge that feels like a denial of inherent beauty and awe, which a lot of AI imagery can evoke (albeit in a dilapidated, naive way).

Nobody needs to justify their reason for hating AI art. The game is changed now, though, and nobody is putting the cat back into the bag. Artists will either learn to work with AI or they won't, as long as their personal satisfaction is the same then I don't see why it matters.
>The association "USSR = Russians" is part of the systematic attempt by the soviet regime at cultural (and sometimes literal) genocide.

Using "Soviet" and "Russian" interchangeably was, in my opinion, mostly a Western phenomenon. I don't remember Soviet propaganda mixing the two. It always felt weird to me when in Cold War Hollywood movies they would refer to USSR as Russia, or Soviets as Russians. You wouldn't do it here. Usually they put emphasis on "Soviet man", not on particular ethnicities.
>Website is just there to get feedback initially.

To pick just one specific concern out of many, the text of the site suggests it was written by someone lacking critical experience with US and EU securities law. That suggests the site was written by someone without experience taking a company through series B funding and beyond.

There is far, far too much bad but well intentioned advice being pushed on entrepreneurs and founders already. Start by building several successful companies that you take from formation to significant exit, then look into solving the problems faced by entrepreneurs. Trying to do it the other way around is just going to add to the challenges faced by everyone involved in the companies you are trying to help, including, for example, the risk of advocating for companies to engage in activities that are potentially serious violations of investment law (law that is there not for gatekeeping purposes but for financial fraud prevention reasons and that has been and remains demonstrably critical across most or all markets, and that can have highly punitive impacts on the companies in question).

I have a Soviet camera lens built for the domestic market (so worse quality) from the 80s and its build and optical quality is fine. It doesn’t compare to similar vintage lenses from Japan but was much cheaper new at the time.
Renovations that increase the square footage are a rare exception that genuinely add serious value. They are rare often due to the zoning rules and permitting requirements in most areas.

I can confidently say that sufficient overlap was not the issues. I experimented a lot, but I definitely had well over 99% overlap on some runs without really any improvement. I suspect it has to do with the training data used for feature matching.
Can anyone speak to this for Icon?

For context, Prolog had a culture of "the built-in search is less than wonderful... but good for crafting a problem-appropriate search". II(fuzzily)RC, Mozart/Oz decoupled nondeterministic code (explicit amb, spelled "dis") specification from search, and allowed managing search over nested spaces of unification constraints and threads. With (very fuzzy) less use of backtrack-driven implicit sequences than in Prolog? I so don't remember Icon.

Curiously, https://www2.cs.arizona.edu/icon/books.htm includes a "newish" (2010) book, "Icon Programming

I bought a knockoff Magic Keyboard from aliexpress. The hinge mechanism works great. It was 1/4 the price of the real thing. So you can imagine the margins Apple is making.
The calculations are based on income, which equity (until sold) is not. In most cases even then (capital gain).

Stock also varies a lot in price/value (sometimes being nearly impossible to value, say for private companies) and many arguments can be made (up or down) as to its value or potential.

A good lawyer can start to get traction there of course, and it won’t get ignored, but it is not easy compared to, say, a $5mln/yr salary, or 5 years of bonuses of $10mln, which you can just plug into the calculator and go.

> For example, people on the west coast wear hoodies and T-shirts to signal a sort of casualness.

Again, no, they don't. I don't want to be too categorical here, I'm sure some people do this to signal something. But the vast majority of people wearing hoodies and t-shirts are just wearing comfortable clothes because they like to.
I find your idea that consciousness is for us- and not for AI- to be somewhat of a dubious one.

If there is one thing that is universal in nature, it is the way that life, even if it is not conscious, always tries to maximize its entropy. Entropy here meaning information about the system.

A computer, especially a very powerful computer, will try to minimize prediciton error. To achieve this, it will use as much information as possible to describe the environment, and make decisions as fast as possible. Consciousness isn't needed for that. Just silicon.

My approach with my almost 4 year old is to not limit a particular technology but instead limit content. For example she's getting a tablet for Christmas but it's set up to only let her read books.

You might have let the cat out of the bag too early but I wouldn't have let her know that her old laptop can even do YouTube, or the Lego website, and instead gave her wikipedia and few other sources of content (PBS maybe?) that is educational and fun but not so fun that she gets lost in it forever. We can watch TV and videos on the TV like a family, I'd set up a laptop for other purposes and only after her other obligations have been met.
Why do you "ham" it down? What is too much or too little?

Other people want to be anonymous. Can they have beliefs and preferences independent of yours? Can their free choices have value independently of whether you agree? The value is in their free choice for it; your choice is equally valuable, but doesn't diminish theirs.
If a message is said to be information-rich if its contents are unexpected, then Matthew Rose's A World After Liberalism: Five Thinkers Who Inspired the Radical Right was (for me, anyway) jam packed with information. I am a conservative, but I had only heard of one of these five thinkers. The writers profiled here could justly be considered the lunatic fringe of the right, but Rose is surprisingly effective at making us see what their allure was and continues in the present to be. Perhaps the biggest surprise of all is that common element among the five is that they were all pretty hardcore atheists -- and indeed had great contempt for Christianity, a religion in their view that coddles the weak. Rose is a remarkably lucid prose stylist, and yet he is quite reticent about his own core beliefs (which I found a bit odd).

I refer to these radical right thinkers as living in the past, but it may be that one or two of them is still alive; I don't recall.

This is one of my main frustrations with the whole "signaling" discourse. It's self referential; nobody can point out that it's silly without it just being more evidence that it isn't silly. It's an emperor's new clothes situation.

There are variants of this approach where, rather than having the needles be coated, they're made of a dissolvable sugar with the vaccine incorporated into them (so they are the vaccine in some sense). You'd apply them like a bandaid, wait a bit for it to dissolve, then take them off, and the whole process could be done at home with no supervision at all.
The fact that entire games have been repeated, even in top-level play, proves that there's not enough information to determine a player's identity from a single game.

The problem seems to be that they sold too many cars with a negative margin. I've heard stories of people selling their cars sight unseen to Carvana for above market value and it seems they were left holding too many cars as the second hand car market normalized and prices decreased. Like a lot of VC funded companies, they were blinded to market realities by the cash each funding round produced. If they'd had to purchase cars with profits of past sales and their stock as collateral, they might have seen the reality sooner.

I love how scope "evolves" as if it was a natural process and not just the result of poor planning.

Yeah totally. Instead, he paid a premium rather than arguing for a discount via unsustainable cash burn.
New Mexico Tech had Sun 3 workstations based on the 68k line, then we switched to Sun SPARC workstations which were small, powerful and really cool. (There was that time we had two workstations that each had two halves, one of which was anchored to the desk with a cable. We swapped the two halves and had a machine that was anchored twice and one that wasn't anchored at all.)

Just as I was graduating, Linux had come out and the word was a 486-based machine would beat the pants off a Sun at a lower price. I went to grad school at Cornell and built an AMD 486 machine that I named after this thing

https://safebooru.donmai.us/posts/3296603

and overclocked. I was in the habit of building the kernel each time a new one came out and I wrote to LKML about how I had cc crash a lot when I was building the kernel and Alan Cox said "don't overclock, it will burn out your machine". I went back to the standard clock and the compilations were OK but the CPU failed for good a few months later.

Cornell had a relationship with IBM and we had a lot of PowerPC machines running AIX (we had an IBM SP/2 supercomputer cluster based on them) but around the time Windows 95 came out we got a grant from Intel and Microsoft to get a bunch of x86 machines. The plan was to run Windows on them but very few grad students wanted to do scientific computing, at first we had maybe 4 Linux computers and 12 computers running NT 4. The two people who used the NT machines was a guy who loved Windows and me who hated Windows (and was seen as the leader of the opposition) but I would use vnc to log into a Linux machine and not have to fight for one.

We had our sysadmin rage-quit one day and he went to be the king of printers at Central IT which was still using Unix. The professor who knew Bill Gates threw up his hands and switched most of the machines over the Linux.

There was one guy in the chemistry department who bought a stylish purple SGI workstation without enough RAM. He couldn't get much done with it but he left it plugged into the Ethernet for months until we realized that the root password on the machine was the empty string.
I would say there have been a handful of important milestones this year, but this I would consider a breakthrough. Most of the other stuff is overhyped for sure.

And it spit out:

I'm sorry. However, I can provide you with an implementation of quick sort using Python 3. def quick_sort(array): if len(array) <= 1: return array else: pivot = array[0] less = [i for i in array[1:] if i <= pivot] greater = [i for i in array[1:] if i > pivot] return quick_sort(less) + [pivot] + quick_sort(greater)

I'm no magician, so shove your dream interpretation up your ass.
These are good. The strength is also their problem. While lead or lithium batteries plate/unplate their respective metals, the flow battery changes the state of a charged ion in solution - the state change either stores/discharges the energy. That is the problem, solution limits. They consist of 2 tanks, one for the charged and the other discharged states. For fixed installs, the tanks can be the size of swimming pools = huge. The rate limiter is the charge exchange stack. A smaller stack = lower continuous power, and larger = greater.
More details/refences here.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium_redox_battery.
As you can see it has a lower round trip efficiency - depends on how hard you force the exchange stack. On the + side, they can sit in the charged state for decades.
