I've used Line Pay and AU Pay (indeed if we're talking about person-to-person money transfer I've seen more of that with Line than anything else, although of course it's the same company), and I think I've seen the Aeon one get used too. If you include the various tap-to-pay systems then there's a whole lot more.
I think this is a good question too.

Personally I want to see AI take over handling 100% of the calls from confused people who could have just used the website to accomplish their task but are too clueless. Then keep enough humans to exclusively deal with all the actually worthwhile calls, like mine. (I never call unless it can’t be done online.)

If people actually want a jobs program (uneconomic work created strictly for the sake of providing income), call it what it is, and at least have people fill potholes, or something else humans are actually better at than machines.
It's more than just creating a distributable, though. It's also a dev fixed environment and a cross-compiler when paired with qemu, and a test suite all rolled into one. It's hugely powerful for how simple it is.
Ask HN: Where would I find a specific image data set?
I would like to train a model to identify a particular object class of a yellow jacket nest, specifically that of the Vespula squamosa species.

I need a sufficient amount of images to train the network (probably 1000-2000). I've checked open source data sets like CIFAR and ImageNet, and there's nothing even close to this object class.

What are some good resources for finding this very specific image data set? I'm willing to pay a fair price if needed.

The thing is, even if the risk of myocarditis specifically is higher in young men with the vacccine vs. with infection, the vaccine protects against much more than just myocarditis. So even if the myocarditis risk goes up (relatively slightly it seems), if the other risks are all greatly lowered, as an overall package it still is attractive to be vaccinated. Looking just at myocarditis feels like being unable to see the forest for the trees.

There's obviously a massive glaring difference: communication.

In an everything app, this is trivial.

An important bit of context for people here who have not purchased cannabis with a card: no cannabis seller can accept debit cards as a payment method.

"good culture" == "not Asian American culture" apparently?

I think this is exactly the thing that the authors skate right past. "Parental fears of academic competition" is assumed to be fully disjoint with "racial animus". What if "fears of ... competition" is just one way to racial animus without expressing explicitly negative attitudes on surveys?

And yes, this is a swipe at both the parent and the paper authors for not seriously considering this. The authors have literally a 2-sentence paragraph on animus and later claim to have ruled it out. And literally, you cannot take surveys at face value for something like this. People will not and sometimes cannot be honest.
> Children and their parents exercising their freedom to do whatever they want

Aside from the dubious assertion that the children and parents want the same thing, this is reduced to the point of absurdity. You can disagree with the parent's opinion on the subject, but you should at least formulate that disagreement in the context of the subject.
Authenticity is an interesting thing to think about. When we went to Disney, there's a thing where you can get signatures from the cast members. The actress playing Cinderella would sign my kids' little book in the way you might think Cinderella would, Tinkerbell would sign the book in the way you might think Tinkerbell would, etc.

But I wouldn't be surprised if you could get into legal trouble selling autograph books that you signed yourself, presenting them as being collector's items from Disney.

But really, the thing you'd be making is functionally identical to what you'd get at the park - it's a fictional character's signature, drawn by a person trained in making that signature.

Regardless I am happy to see they have revived the project and am eager to check out the new release!
> I really think medical science gets many things wrong and knows only a small piece of puzzle on how the human body works, and people with long covid are stuck in that knowledge gap.

Medical science is definitely limited. Studying a human system is essentially reverse engineering combined with something we can’t create in the first place. So doctors accumulate data, somehow make progress on life expectancies, but still a lot is unknown, and they don’t really claim otherwise.
I agree with you in part, but feel there's something to the criticism as well. You can look at the top hits --- number ones, top 10s, Billboard top 40, etc., going back through time. And whilst the most popular song of any given year or decade often is reasonably banal, it often isn't, and as you go back through the list, there are dark-horse pieces which do appear.

Another factor is that far more music is published or streamed now, which makes sorting through the mix much more challenging.

Popular taste and memory are both fickle, and one thing that makes going through back-catalogues and earlier periods so interesting is that the sounds of forgotten hits are often fresh to modern ears, while at the same time being tinged with nostalgia based on style, composition, performance characteristics, etc.

If you look at popular hits going back about 150--200 years (say to the 1820s -- 1870s onward), one characteristic that becomes overwhelmingly apparent is the role of technology in popular music. Earlier pieces are often meant to be played or sung by the masses themselves, and tend to instrumentation that would have been available (fiddle, flute, piano). The first recorded formats were player-piano pieces distributed on rolls (and with a distinctly mechanical sound). By the early 20th century, amplification starts to emerge, allowing smaller acts, then electrification (the 3--4 piece rock group emerges), synthesizers (1- and 2-person acts), rap DJs, and over the past decade or so the ability for either a single person to play multiple tracks or for artists in remote locations to be able to collaborate on a single piece.

This may give rise to either original pieces, or simply amazing covers of classics. Leonid & Friends cover of Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4", for example, seems to me better than and at the same time more faithful to the original. It is technically fantastic, while at the same time having its own honest spirit and vivaciousness:

<https://yewtu.be/watch?v=9_torOTK5qc>

Other notable covers:

- Pomplamoose, e.g., "In the Air Tonight": <https://pipe.kavin.rocks/watch?v=9_torOTK5qc>

- Disturbed's "Sounds of Silence": <https://piped.kavin.rocks/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4>

I still think that songs such as "Gangnam Style" and "Someone That I Used to Know" are both truly good recent (post-2000, for me) songs. Both in originals and covers such as Walk Off the Earth's: <https://piped.kavin.rocks/watch?v=p4hIzgqA9io>. (Not to mention the parodies of the original and cover versions...).

That said ...

I feel like a big part of this is just affordability -- at a time when more and more people are struggling financially, busses are a more attractive option in terms of cost than flights in lots of cases. Simple as that
Also worth noting this is super common on devices designed to have a micro USB-B port, which then are later switched over to USB-C; they just hook up the pins from USB-B and don't bother with the new pins from USB-C.

The spec is specifically designed to allow this, because USB has backwards compatibility as a core tenant (i.e. you can plug in your USB keyboard from 1996 and it will probably still work). Also a USB-C to micro USB-B cable or USB-C to USB-A cable is explicitly allowed in the spec, and how could such a thing possibly work if the spec somehow required using the new CC pins instead of making them optional, since those pins are not in USB-A/USB-B?

Still, not the nicest experience for users :(
I had this thought also, but _surely_ they must control for that right??? Also, maybe there is an average family size difference? Not sure. But ya given this is CA we are talking about here, the housing stock in a given area (in the rich areas anyway) is basically static, I would think its basically zero sum, if one family is moving in, another is moving out (displacement).

No, if they've done their data analysis right (and I dunno...) they're saying it's actually _flight_ b/c whites leave faster than Asians arrive, and apparently they confirm by getting this number by more than one route. They hammer on this in multiple sections:

"our estimate of white flight from Asian entry in high-SES districts is larger, with each new Asian student leading to 1.5 white student departures"

"Overall, we find a 1.5-to-one departure rate for the average suburban district, which is above the one-for-one threshold that would pertain to a pure housing market response."

"In this case, we use Census data from 2000 and 2010 and find that each Asian arrival in a district leads to the departure of -1.5 white households with children, a number very similar to our baseline estimate."
Not at all. They make cross compiling fairly trivial, and give teams a way of managing cross compiled dependencies. This was vital a few years ago for things like torch and even opencv, where deploying on anything other than x86 meant you were probably on your own, and you almost certainly wanted control over the compiler flags.

That's just one example, though. It also lets you standardize the dev environment (work directly out of the build container directly, or use your host OS and run unit tests in a local build), and it allows for easy, standardized testing within the same environment.

Osko is built on top of Australia's "New Payment Platform" (NPP). As I understand it, NPP is basically a fast peer-to-peer transaction layer. Based on comments above, it's similar to Pix in that it's implemented by the Reserve Bank and it can use different account IDs (called PayIDs) such as email address or phone number.

PayIDs weren't available to businesses when last I looked, for whatever reason, but I think the Eftpos network also uses the NPP. So you can certainly use this network to make payments to business, but you need an EFTPOS card, and most of the banks issue Visa or Mastercard network cards instead.
