We have an ape-to-human communication (Koko) and this is a huge success in researching animal's mind.

I would like to do an animal-to-animal communication but with computer-in-the-middle. I have an expectation that top notch birds (parrots/corvus) can do this and I am going to have a really smart birds somewhere in future as pets. But before I am ready to live with that notoriously hard species I would like to start a trial-and-error process with easier species. I have no expectations of breakthrough result with easier species but I definitely have expectation of some result with dogs or chicken because I use to live with them for decades and probably I can make them to produce some results.
That's a bit different. Tahiti's ties to France go back long before WWII as it was a French "protectorate" (colony) starting in the 1840s, and has been under French rule ever since, although now it (as part of French Polynesia) is an "overseas country" of France meaning it has a large degree of self-rule not unlike Puerto Rico's relationship to the US.
When is the Firefox version going live? Would love to try it out.
He caved to the bigots out of a sense of pragmatism. Same way Abe Lincoln said he'd let slavery continue if it would preserve the union. Or, more recently, Bill Clinton signing the Defense of Marriage Act. He disavowed it later in life, but signed it because he didn't think he had a choice.
It's not just the infotainment system. They have (had?) a problem where the traction control would randomly engage while parking. This was bad in trucks (skid marks and dirty looks for chirping the tires were pretty common), but in the early Bolts it caused the regenerative braking to disengage, so the car would unexpectedly accelerate when it should be pulling to a stop.

On its first tank of gas, our old GMC failed to start after being parked for 10 hours because the computer left the ABS system on overnight. It also had crazy software failure modes where the dashboard would go nuts and the onstar system would start making strange sounds.

Arguably, the software was one of the better subsystems of that truck. Never buying GM again. Our old GMC was the best truck we've ever owned. (Much better than our new Ram 1500, which can hold less weight than our old Volvo 240 station wagon).

Hopefully the F-150 electrics aren't hilariously bad.
Yes it is unreasonable. Japanese people aren’t a disease that kills the old and the vulnerable, and comparing them to a disease is extremely inappropriate.
Meh. At this point China will dominate most things in the Russian market. They're gutting their economy and exacerbating a demographic crisis via heavy losses and huge departures. Outside of nukes they will otherwise be China's pet for the next few decades.

Thanks for the feedback! Great point, will add the radius option to my list.
Per Wikipedia, the original framing is Blackstone's ratio from the enlightenment, where he used 10:1. Real courts don't put numbers on this, of course, but that's the thinking that produced the philosophy. Basically: no, given the level of innaccuracy we already know to be present, I think it's very clear that a sincerely-believed 99% confidence will send someone to jail pretty much anywhere in the US.

How about HSV-1/2? Combined this virus is present in about 2/3 people in the US, and resides dormant near the brain (with cold sores).

I thought there's already a strong link with HSV and Dementia, is there any more research looking at this virus and a vaccine?

But string interpolation is a small part of it. Think about formatting a shopping cart: you need interpolation, yes. But also a "for" loop (for iterating over item list), and "if" statements (to show "cart is empty" or item notes), and functions, like money pretty-printing, would be nice too. And don't forget the nested function-like blocks so one can embed standard design elements...

This gets complex fast, I cannot imagine having something like this as a slow-moving spec.
There were 2 suggestions for the asker to use ConcurrentDictionary before the asker clarified, and 1 more afterwards (probably because the answerer didn't read through the whole thread).

Other than that one response, this looks like a very constructive back-and-forth (which could've been way shorter if the asker presented his case accurately without exaggerating it), so I don't really see what's wrong with it.

>> this is an unusually free market where failure is cheap [public quick]

The speed and amount of effort to innovate, by basically every demographic of persons, is breathtaking and exciting. Due to low startup costs (lack of gatekeepers), most will fail. That is okay, because the builders are not playing with super powder.
I know some people who avoid places doing this so you’re also losing customers. Maybe the people shamed into tipping make up for this, but the business will never know.
My understanding is that the courts have a different take on it.

Stating ‘x killed y’, even if I wholeheartedly believe it is libel if it turns out someone else killed y, and x had reputational damage due to my statement. I’m asserting something is true, full stop.

Stating ‘in my opinion, x killed y’, if I wholeheartedly believe it, is not libel, even in the same situation, because even if x did not kill y, it is still true it was my opinion that it was true, and I was being clear about that. I wasn’t asserting facts, I was asserting my opinion. Opinions are protected, as long as they can’t be confused with false assertions of facts.

Now, if it turns out there is evidence that I didn’t actually have that opinion and it was all a game to destroy x’s reputation, I might still get hit.

It’s the same reason ‘allegedly’ gets used by the press so much when someone gets arrested.

Regardless of what the courts find later, it was indeed alleged. And that matters if someone tries to come after them later. Which happens.

The news sells itself as making factual reports (except for ‘entertainment’ or ‘editorial’ sections), and can’t get away with saying it’s all just an opinion.

If you have pointers to case law that disagrees, I’d much appreciate it!
Yes, so essentially I try a few things, I try to find a naive and simplest solution and not ever worry about optimizations. If I fail in that case I try to find a simpler variation of the problem and solve that, if not I keep reducing the problem down. If the problem is reduced down I can explain it to someone else and ask them. Then or from that reduced problem I try and figure out what class of problems it belongs to. If you get anxiety you should ask around, and do what you are doing ask the internet using concise language.
There were two 900s. The first one was a SAAB platform. The later one was based on Opel. That car was turned into the 9-3 later.
> I wonder what lessons the United States government has learned from this event.

Nothing. There are no regrets there but now that things are stable (kinda), it's a good idea to have remorse to calm down people.

> If a war breaks out between the U.S. and China, what policies (if any) would the government potentially implement differently to its residents of Chinese descent?

That will depend on the perception of the US government for these people, for the popular opinion and for the revenge mentality level of the current ruling class. Remember, this happened very recently. They were all labeled "Oligarchs" whatever that means. They were not oligarchs yesterday or when they bought the properties? But now they are "enemies" so everything is justified as such. And the people applauded!
No, this amounts to saying "I don't care enough about accidentally generating HTML, I want to use faster + more convenient method instead"
Shingles (Herpes zoster) is implicated. The whole 'lifelong nervous system infection' does seem a bit awful. I bet if we chip away at new kinds of herpes viruses, we'll find a fairly drastic reduction in Alzheimers.

"There is mounting evidence that herpes [simplex]
leads to Alzheimers", so, HSV1/2 also.

And apparently having APOE4 genome makes it all worse. HSV1+APOE4=12x risk.

EDIT: for clarity, the twitter thread showed that the shingles vaccine drastically reduces risk
This is my first reaction as well. Talking about tokenization and POS tagging is getting lost in the weeds when one has goals like this:

>I also want to be able to assess how much of the text is about a given topic, so that if I'm interested in reading a detective story from e.g. the Project Gutenberg collection, I don't want it to pick up a story where a detective is only mentioned in one paragraph.

This more like NLU than an NLP problem isn't it? It's like tracking how much of a Harry Potter book contains Voldemort content without knowing ahead of time that he may be referred to as He Who Must Not Be Named, You-Know-Who, The Dark Lord and so on. One would have to first identify the thing you're interested in, then learn when characters/the author invent new ways to refer to it, and carry all those forwards to find new instances. Fun!
Do you HAVE to tackle it?

Is it your idea, to tackle it or is someone else pushing for the problem to be fixed?

Is there anyone who knows for sure if it can be done or not?

Does it sound reasonable, within the known laws of physics/engineering that the problem is solvable?

Is that problem that unique that you can't just google it?

Make a list of all the possible attempts to solve it; ask all parties involved if they have other ideas or suggestions, and then time box each one of them.

Then start attempting each option.

If it takes you longer, document what you tried and either move on or ask someone else if it's worth it to continue that approach.

For the anxiety:

Why are you anxious about?
In the worst case scenario where the problem is not solvable, what does that mean to you?
Are you anxious you won't do it fast enough?
Or you won't do it in the best way?
Or that you're not capable to do it and someone else is capable of doing it?
It can get really tricky: using reflection you could read a string from any input and create a generic type instantiation that never happens in the source code. How would the code for that type be present in an AOT scenario?

There are also several optimizations that can be made in AOT compiled code that are not allowed when you enable unrestricted reflection or dynamically loading code. As an example, suppose an interface is implemented by just one type in your code. If you AOT compile it, the compiler can safely assume that all calls to methods on that interface actually go to that single type implementing it, thus it can replace interface dispatches with direct calls.
This one's 250 understandable lines: https://github.com/marijnheule/microsat. You could probably get it to below 200 lines if you removed the restart logic and learned clause compaction, but it's actually a surprisingly competitive solver as is.
In Charleston, SC we have a number of local groups that were German-American social clubs that were forced to abandon their native culture and affiliations to appease the mob. You’ll never hear anything of it, there is no care to apologize by dignitaries here that you expect to see during AAPI month for the Japanese.

I wonder why Japanese Americans get this kind of outpouring of support we see in the thread in a way that German Americans would never get, having been shit on for not one but two world wars.

That you’re being currently downvoted for mentioning this fact is itself concerning.
The vaccine was the shingles vaccine and it was administered in 2013.
> Tipping only exists because of racism.

What? Many countries have tipping, including ones that have never had any sort of racial caste system.
> People keep forgetting to sanitize inputs, for example. Does that render input sanitization a broken idea?

Possibly. You could prevent careless use of unsanitized inputs with a type system. Fail-safe designs should be more common.

Indeed, some of the suspicion regarding loyalties might have been planted during the Sino-Japanese war when "Issei" Japanese-Americans identified with nascent Imperial Japan: https://www.jstor.org/stable/25591553

Additionally, today, we have agencies who consider Americans enemies of the state, just not in broad strokes, though we do see some semblance when people try to paint certain segments of today's America as being unpatriotic or "divisive" in broad strokes.
> Guns dont kill, people kill.

Yeah, I see someone brainwashed and agendaed here and is not me. BTW if that phrase had any hint of truth to it people could just buy nuclear weapons as long as they can afford it, but no, we know that is too much power to be handed to the capriciousness of a single random person, but they pretend it's any different with handguns; manufacturers and everyone else involved know the next victim will be some kid they don't know and therefore don't care about and doesn't concern them at all, while nuclear warfare is much ore likely to affect them directly so it cannot be abstracted away as a statistic.
Is there a Meta Review for Glassdoor like for Amazon? Something that records how many reviews were removed.
Probably not quite what you wanted, but P=NP. When you look at what does that imply then it's hard to think that it holds.

Scott Aaronson has a checklist on how to quicky reject a P?=NP paper, and one of the best methods is to check whether the paper proves something weaker first.
> So far, it looks like this will be a major undertaking. Whoever was responsible for the namespace support is going to have to rebase the entire dang thing with alternate code paths for everything, because as of Linux 6.3, they replaced a whole mess of APIs so they either newly accept struct mnt_idmap * instead of struct user_namespace *, or accept the former in addition to the previous parameters. This has far reaching implications, I think. Good luck to whoever attempts the task.

ouch
We were defeated in the sense that the very idea of fighting covid became a political hot button and a huge percentage of the US population decided not to fight.

Yes, it could have been worse, maybe we could have had utter collapse. But hospitals did get overrun multiple times and many people died completely unnecessarily because we stopped fighting. I really wouldn't call this a win; covid is now endemic and continuing to evolve inside us. At best this is a bloody stalemate.

My advice would be push back the possibly unsolvable problem down the road, and deal with your axienty/paralysis first.

If your anxiety/paralysis is specifically tied to the problem, seek help from a mental health professional.
The most interesting thing that I saw was: "We find strong protective effects of the vaccine for women but none for men, and that this diff is driven by Alzheimer’s (not vascular) dementia."

It's a standards producer/consumer disconnect. XSLT on XHTML documents was always the Right Way(tm), but XML got such a backlash it never stood a chance once HTML5 landed.

Also, XSLT is horrible.
Yeah, the Niihau incident and the shelling of a Santa Barbara oil facility by a Japanese sub with a witness (falsely, in retrospect) reporting seeing the sub turning south toward LA and signalling someone on shore after the attack [0], and the subsequent incident where what was later identified to have been a rogue weather balloon triggered war nerves and resulted in substantial anti-aircraft fire on phantom Japanese aircraft over LA [1] were all part of the context of the internment, but while, like the more deliberate propaganda directed by the Nazis against the Jews, they are important if you want to understand the mechanics of how the actions they preceded were seen as justified at the time, they are so distant from anything that might actually remotely justify the action (and, unlike the Nazi propaganda, aren’t themselves an organized part of the action) that there is a very good reason they aren’t highlighted in most discussion of the ethics of the action.

Please stop "making sure" when it comes to MY thinking. Also on behalf of everyone who doesn't like being told what or how to think, please stop "making sure".

If you really need to "make" something "sure" please pick something real and not a political football.

In the early 70's alarmists were "making sure" everyone was panicking about an ice age.

See..no ice...

Wait a while....I predict the alarmists will change to something else when people no longer buy the current looming disaster.

Speculation is all that is required for validity.

Parallel to barter, desire-to-use is all that is required for use-case.

Governments are going to remain challenged by the need to now assert that possession or use of a legal instrument, with no inherent illegal characteristic, is now evidence of intent to crime.

Not that I don't expect them to rise to the occasion. As they have been by implementing crude sanction power in place of legislation.

I think the title is somewhat unnecessarily editorialized from:

> Bug 2208553 - xfs metadata corruption after upgrade to 6.3.3 kernel [NEEDINFO]

There are reported problems, but also:

> I note that all these reported failures seem to be using hardware raid and with stripe (whether either is relevant is unknown).

> I am also using XFS (without issue) on a number of other systems with a 6.3 kernel, but none of them are using hardware raid or stripes.

Ed: That said - it's quite worrying to see corruption on xfs as the filesystem should be really rock solid by now.

There's a terrific drama called Bad Day at Black Rock about a veteran trying to give a medal to a Japanese family in a rural town whose son had died in the war. It's less about the internment and more about bigots getting their comeuppance.
I have similar fond memories. I think it's the first development tool I ever paid for, and I do think I paid for it.

There was another editor that I liked at that time, though, and it's possible I'm confusing which one I paid for. But Notepad++ won in the end.
The point is: unix model state "desktop systems are too costly and complex, KISS, we just need to give users ability to chain some small programs together to made most of the jobs, thanks to simple and powerful IPCs", GUIs can't be Unix models since their only IPC is cut&paste.

Document UIs can be, but my limited knowledge of historical Unix GUIs do have some "document UI" aspects (i.e. SUN NeWS/Display Postscript) but they aren't much Unix nor much documents. Those who developed Document UIs was Xerox, Symbolics etc...

Yeah, I hope Ford improves port placement on their next generation models. TBH, the whole industry should have standardized port locations when they did CCS.

The superchargers have short cables, so they are worse, but CCS stations have issues with charger placement too. People often end up parking on the "wrong" side of the charger that they actually use due to weird placement issues.

I've seen a guy with a Taycan reposition his car at least twice to get an EVGo cable to reach. Its a bad situation all around.

I like the "Retrospective prime directive:"

> Regardless of what we discover, we understand and truly believe that everyone did the best job they could, given what they knew at the time, their skills and abilities, the resources available, and the situation at hand.

Assume this attitude when you're looking at other people's work and questioning their decisions. Assume that others will do the same for your work.
It’s actually a critical concept for security contexts.

If everyone forgets to sanitize input, that means our current processes are fucking broken.

I like to imagine if this excuse happened in aviation how it would sound.

“Everyone forgets to put down landing gear before landing, so does that mean landing gear is a bad idea?”

No, but it does mean the process for landing is catastrophically broken, and needs to be overhauled. If that happened twice, we’d implement strict rules around landing like checklists with standardized procedures to have a second person verifying that the process was followed and each task was accomplished, and defining a “sterile phase of flight” where talking about anything other than the landing process was disallowed.

So, input sanitization isn’t a broken idea, but the fact that it keeps going wrong clearly demonstrates that out process and culture around security are catastrophically broken.
