This has all the information a pilot would need to take off and land from an airport. Airport maps are usually available for free in US but at least I have yet to find some for some Canadian airports. The Canadian organizations sell those. There are paid apps you can get. This looks like a good free alternative.

Addendum: someone mentioned Airnav. Just to see the lack of open and up to date data available freely, look at SFO [1] and look at YYZ [2]. SFO has an airport diagram showing taxy ways and runways and some other meta information. nothing for YYZ.

Yeah that's what I thought too.

I think they could even get those cheaters to pay for the non-cheaters. Say they pay a monthly fee (I'm not sure if it's the case for DotA? I don't play any games right now). You create a monthly challenge where you get a chance to get a month of subscription for free! But you make it very hard for the cheaters to get it, like a ration of 1/20 (either through shadow banning or by redirecting them to an almost impossible challenge).

Another alternative I thought, you could monetize cheaters by pushing ads to them whereas the non-cheaters don't get any ads.

And you could make it so that if you don't cheat for a while, give up all the items/experience you got while cheating, you're welcome back to the normal process. Just to keep them paying the monthly fee as they have a path to redemption.
My comment is specific to GPT, which is why I said that and not AI. GPT is not the whole of AI.

But the fact that people are already back to full-blown 1970s-style "the computer said it! it must be true!" with GPT-based technologies does not bode well for our ability to assess future technologies either. The possibility of future AI technology being just an even-more obfuscated and convincing error generator at this point can not be dismissed, if people are already failing this badly at evaluating what is still an embryonic technology.

I'm sure people will accuse me of being a Luddite about AI in the future, and I'm sure they won't appreciate "Look, it's not that I don't appreciate the technology, what I'm not trusting is you and your assessment, since you have a proved past track record of being unable to assess AI technology reliably." I've got all sorts of friends to make in the future with that.
If one company pays more voluntarily, it's unlikely the head of that company will remain there very long!

I'm not sure whether youtube is broken for me, but the linked video caps out at 480p resolution and on top of that it's letterboxed. As a result it's impossible to see what the chart is actually saying, or where the data is sourced from. Reading the transcript, the date range for the figures is "pandemic period" and "recent period", which means the comparison is probably bunk as a result of cherry picking.
I take slight issue with a few things here: 1) grind settings will change for different coffees, roasts and ages (time since roast), 2) liking strong coffee and light roasts is a contradiction, the author likes dark coffee and that’s ok, 3) the 3 “waves” are not really so distinct as suggested - light roasts are not new and dark roasts are not old, and blends are favored over single origin by large coffee producers because they can be more consistent than single origin.
If your argument is that a configurable framework is easier than code gen for beginners, I agree. But that said, you don’t seem to be acknowledging the fundamental tradeoff which cuts both ways. Ultimately it depends on how close you want to stay to the paved path. I’ve built enough web products at this point that I’d rather have auth primitives than a configurable framework as the latter will be way more complicated than necessary to meet my needs.

For me it comes down to keeping business logic out of my framework. The logical extension of the framework + hooks model can be seen in something like Drupal. You can get amazing volumes of functionality launched quickly, but the UX is ERP-like in its rigidity. Obviously Django is not like this in the large, and the auth/admin stuff are much higher power-to-weight ratio than anything in Drupal, but it’s an interesting case study in looking at the implications of drawing different logical boundaries between framework and application.
>rights to freedom of speech, right to bear arms, and protection from unreasonable search and seizure...

The trouble with this is that, while it's fine in principal [I'm a firm believer in the old agage "People shouldn't fear their governments. Governments should fear their people" ] it doesn't really stand up to reality.

The people who enshrined the "Right to bear arms" into your constitution envisioned it as a way to keep govenrment in check. If "The Man" has a musket he can oppress me. If I have a musket too, he can't.

Unfortunately, in the 21st century, "The Man" is always going to have a shitload of bigger, more lethal "muskets" than you and could swat you like a fly if he felt like it.

All the right to bear arms does is lead to a situation where your streets are full of guns, violent crime is rampant and your police force is armed to the teeth and more akin to a paramilitary army than your friendly neighbourhood bobby. So that every encounter --even for the likes of a trivial motoring offence, which would be a 5 minute telling off, a bit of grovelling and possibly a fine, anywhere else in Europe or UK-- has the potential to escalate into an armed stand-off or a shooting.

It's just amazing that so many Americans can simply not see this and still have that almost evangelical belief that the microscopically small chance that they could overthrow some future government if it got out of hand [spoiler alert: you couldn't!] is worth the trade-off of living day to day in a society awash with guns, violent crime and mass shootings.
If you’re a Cartographer and have made thousands of maps surely you know that some maps are for different audiences and use cases. This might just seem odd to you because you haven’t used this information in a manner laid out here, but trust me that it’s valuable!
Honestly, I trust the FDA to mostly do a good job and would wait -- unless the time involved would mean that waiting would render the treatment moot.

In that case it seems like there's more reason to try, at first, but there is a real cost. The cost of time spent focusing on enjoying what you have in the search for a better that may or may not come. And the cost of spending your days dissatisfied that it's not better than it is.

I don't think chasing medical miracles is a good way to spend my days. If the treatment is safe and works I'm confused why you believe the FDA would prevent it's use, is that a common scenario?
Cool! I took down my initial ageist comment right after I posted it because I didn't want to be too harsh and get into an un-intended flame war over something that you may not have meant.

More people are going into tech as technology eats the world and people see that there are opportunities here. It is also becoming a required skill for a lot of trades such as working on cars, home automation systems, security systems, HVAC, appliance repair etc..

While more experienced people may be able to bring more value in many cases, often management does not see that and does the penny-wise, pound foolish thing. I have seen that happen a lot. Be it good, bad or indifferent, company owners are looking to make our skills more fungible so that they can drive those costs down. Also, hiring younger workers often translates into lower salaries. This is why no matter how irreplaceable people may feel they are, they are often not as irreplacable as they think they are.

It cites a Bang & Olufsen patent (https://patents.google.com/patent/US20090257599A1/en) which implements voice-coil protection via measuring the resistance/impedance of the speaker while it's being driven.

It also cites another patent (https://patents.google.com/patent/US20120020488A1/en) which implements control of a speaker via combination of impedance measurements of the speaker while it's being driven + a baseline ("binding") measurement of impedance + ambient temperature that is taken at device power up - ie generating a per device calibration curve.

From quickly staring at these, the Apple patents threads the needle by:

* Implementing speaker control using the output of a temperature model (which is fed by the resistance measurement), instead of "directly" operating on speaker resistance.

* Not implementing per-speaker calibration.

(Note! There are other cited patents that I didn't look at, this wasn't meant to be exhaustive, just illustrative... and just to generally satisfy an itch)
It shouldn't be misleading though, that's basically fraud.

>“NHS abortion advice”, “confidential abortion support” and “pregnant teenager help"

Imagine if it was reversed, and abortion advocates(if such people even exist), bought up keywords for pregnancy, and filled them with links saying "pregnancy help". And once you get there, there is no actual pregnancy help but just people giving you factual information on how pregnancies are often dangerous, post natal depression, and how easy and safe abortion is, and offer an abortion right then and there.

Would you say that should be encouraged?
>> I remember my father telling me that computers would never be able to outplay humans at chess because they were really just calculators and couldn't think.

The important thing to ask here -and no offence is meant- is who was your father and what did he know about artificial intelligence research and computer chess.

For the record, John McCarthy, who was a guy famously cognizant about both AI research and computer chess, was on the opposite side of your dad and thought that computers would be able to beat humans at chess by 1978 [1]. Come to think of it, many other CS and AI research pioneers, not least Alan Turing and Claude Shannon, had similar expectations, that were only off by a few decades at most.

Then again it's useful to remember what McCarthy had to say when Deep Blue beat Gary Kasparov, finally establishing computer primacy in chess, in 1989. Quoting from an article that McCarthy wrote at the time:

In 1965 the Russian mathematician Alexander Kronrod said, "Chess is the Drosophila of artificial intelligence." However, computer chess has developed much as genetics might have if the geneticists had concentrated their efforts starting in 1910 on breeding racing Drosophila. We would have _some_ science, but mainly we would have very fast fruit flies. [2].

That's because McCarthy, like Turing, and Shannon, and all the other greats of CS and AI research who were interested in chess, were interested in chess as an example of how humans think differently than other animals and computers; not as a sterile fight between man and machine for who can compute the most calculations, the fastest. Unfortunately, the sterile fight is all we ever got.

So maybe the machines "march", but maybe they're not really marching, to were people think they're marching.

On the M2 Air (and new design MBP), speakers bounce the sound off the screen. I think if you were to remove the screen and listen to those speakers in open air it'd sound quite odd.

Probably they're pre-distorting the sound so it's correct only after bouncing off the screen, kind of like how VR distorts the image to account for headset optics undoing that distortion.

I had an M1 Air before the MBP release. The sound was good, but the sound stage is eerily wide on the M1 MBP (and presumably the M2 Air), compared to the normal side speakers.

Yeah it was still under warrantee, but it's just a hassle, because the solution was to replace the board + speakers. Which means restoring a backup and a week without my main machine. Just weird they had to change that, as it just sounded as if the speakers were blown up

There is solid reasoning behind it though. Divergent perturbation series can be summed in a meaningful way depending on context. Eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borel_summation

The mathematically sounds footing for this is unfortunately routinely not taught in undergrad physics.
Because it is hard and an active area of mathematical research. Which relates to the second question, yes, QED is the most accurate physical theory ever created and its unique predictions have been validated over the past 50 years. The issue is that physicists are a little hand wavy with mathematical formalism, so mathematicians are left trying to formalize , and that is worthwhile because of how effective it has been as a physical theory

> On https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index the UK is one the most democratic countries (18th), significantly higher than the US (30th)

Democracy and lack of authoritarianism don't correlate perfectly. I may be understating this, actually.
> There is a huge difference between an elective abortion and a medically necessary one. You're conflating the two because "a doctor performs it".

And a doctor, decides what's medically necessary, and decides to perform it or not. This is daft semantic hairsplitting, again. Stupid word games, not a productive debate.

> Therefore there is no reason not to restrict elective abortions after that point.

Ans also no reason _to_ restrict them. Which makes the whole statement quite pointless. But we don't bias in favour of excessive pointless laws and government intrusion on private matters, now do we?

You don't get direct answers because your questions do not come across as seeking clarity, just a) "gotchas" and b) going down garden paths.
I moved my blog from Wordpress to just a static html/css site that I maintain myself, including the rss xml. It's certainly simpler and I've learned a great deal but maintaining even a personal website this way can be a pain (it's far too easy to not catch a typo and breaking something like rss). Jekyll is likely what I may end up switching to.

> the ultimate onus falls on me to gain the skills that will lead me to success

I see where you're coming from, but sometimes you don't even know what the necessary skills are. Even if you're very self-motivated and enthusiastic, you can still benefit by being pointed in the right direction. That's part of what a good school or teacher should do for you. (And while they're at it, they can provide materials that smooth out the path to get there.)

You should never expect them to cover 100% of that, but if they're aware of a way that they can get closer to 100% than they currently are, then it's a good thing for them to do it.

I have 2 Microsoft accounts on the same email address, one is a personal account I created ~ 10 years ago and one that appeared out of the blue a few years ago. The second one seems to be created by my employer, when I try to login it is rerouting me to the job 2FA. The weirdest thing was when I tried to schedule an exam with Microsoft and it appears as free on the work account, for some reason, but not free on my personal account.

I also had OneDrive set up on my personal desktop. After years of working well, one day I got an error and I had a look: it merged my personal OneDrive with the work one, so my Witcher 3 saved games were on my company's storage. I guess this happened because I tried to add my work account in Outlook to read email on that computer too. Since then, I am doing all the work related tasks in a Virtual Machine with a local Windows account and no email, no Teams, no OneDrive, etc.

If you discourage heroism - worse, if you announce that you discourage heroism, the average employee's motivation is going to fall drastically. Everyone will do the bare minimum. Exotic forms of corruption like thrift may even emerge

This is exactly what happens in the wider economy when you discourage heroism in society

Humans naturally want to see the grass greener. If you know all you'll ever be is just a number - worse, if you know you will actually be disapproved of because you tried harder or can do better than average, then everyone (but especially gifted individuals) will perform worse and worse until the company breaks

What this post synthesizes is the managerial's class desire to become the "heroes" at the expense of lump-sumed menial labor performed by faceless employees. It's a parasitical philosophy on work

Imagine you own a company (usually involves years' worth of sweat and tears to achieve some sort of success/profitability). Imagine you hear a manager say "let it fail". I hope the feeling that follows makes it clear that the manager is a sponger
