>The answer is to have some mechanism whereby people who run into these issues can pay (once) the small cost of being validated in an alternative way (like, actually talking to a human and explaining what's going on, which is how these issues got solved in meatspace originally)

The answer is to have electronic money accounts and transfer services be operated by the government, and to make it the government's problem to go after criminals rather than have the businesses left holding the bag.

That way the business is not incentivized to discriminate, as long as they get the money through the government money transfer service, they are guaranteed it as if they received cash.

Corollary is that you also need a law that guarantees the right for everyone to have an electronic money account that can send and receive money and that no government can take that ability away from you at any point in time.

And the government has to operate an identity verification API. And again, the onus is on the government to go after criminals committing fraud.

Once you put the onus of fraud or damages on a business, then every business will obviously start discriminating to minimize those costs.
People never talk about the cycle of violence when Russia invades Georgia. Nobody talks about the importance of restraint when it comes to Zelensky's aid package.

Seems to me you are filtering against agile, tech-aware candidates - prefering less agile, less tech-aware candidates. These are your false positives. A time saver for sure, but perhaps not optimal for filling the positions.

As opposed to, for example, demanding a video feed (and giving time for an alleged engineer to engineer their way past an alleged broken camera.)

It used to be that demanding a photo or video was frowned upon as being a bit too easy to use to filter on race or gender. But I guess not anymore.
No, covid does not often spread that way but a large number of other common viruses do.
It's a trade-off though, right? Presumably it's better for the company to lose out on a small percentage due to false positives than to allow them through and subsequently incur a larger percentage of false negatives. They can aim for obtaining those transactions without incurring extra fraud but it has to be worth the cost and risk of the changes to the system.

> You could flash and reflash without re-unlocking. It only gets locked if you issue an explicit lock command.

Slight miscommunication; I was intending to address the specific security threat of "attacker has (temporary) physical access and flashes something malicious onto the phone's root filesystem (anything from a complete ROM to a kernel module or background process that autostarts and runs as root every boot)", in which case the user can just re-flash the phone's non-encrypted partitions from known-good images and be on their merry way.

> do you really expect the average user to generate their own keys, reconfigure their bootloaders, and resign their roms

Fair; it's unlikely for most users.
Definitely!

An argument I read that has merit is that ad supported services does democratize the web for developing countries.

If for example youtube with all of its information or even Google search required a subscription, suddenly a lot of people who make significantly less than the average for the developed world would no longer be able to access those resources.

I still hate the ad surveillance everywhere, but it was a point I hadn't considered before.

Reflecting a bit more on the article I think the key lies close to this notion, quoted from the article:

> Since ker⁡Π can be described as the orthogonal complement to the set {Kti}, the orthogonal complement to ker⁡Π is exactly the closure of the span of the vectors Kti.

{Kti} is going to be very large in the overparametrized case, so the orthogonal complement will be small. Note also this part:

> Because v is chosen with minimal norm [in the context of the corresponding RKHS], it cannot be made smaller by adjusting it by an element of ker⁡Π...

So it sounds like all the "capacity" is taken up by representing the function itself and seemingly paradoxically the parameters λi are more constrained by the implicit regularization imposed by gradient descent (hypothetically enforcing the minimal-norm constraint). So the parameter space of functions that can possibly fit is tiny. The rub in practical applications is many combinations of NN parameters can correspond to one set of parameters in this kernel space, so the connection between p and λ (via f?) seems key to understanding the core of the issue.

If the germs are from the same air that you're breathing and moving around in, and not growing inside the dryer or particularly concentrated in any way, I don't see what the problem is. The same germs will be found on the surface of paper towels or any other object in the bathroom.

The article mentions attaching HEPA filters to hand dryers, but that sounds like a terrible idea since bathrooms are often humid. A wet filter quickly becomes a breeding ground for mold.

If you really want to turn your hand dryer into an air sanitizer, how about ensuring that at some point during the air's passage through the machine, it reaches a temperature high enough to kill germs? (Cool it down a bit before it reaches the exhaust, of course.) Or maybe install a UVC lamp inside? These tricks will require a larger and much more expensive machine, though.
> I will pass two exits and leave through the third. When I exit, someone from the second exit could be in the lane next to me, going to the road I came from. I have to yield.

No, they have to yield to YOU because you're already in the roundabout. It's hard to believe, but trust me, this is just how it works and all of the links I've posted agree. The reason why it works is because when you're in the situation you describe, for the person entering at the second exit to be a factor, they would have to be entering as you're already alongside the second exit and in the process of exiting at the third. So they need to be yielding to you as they will be crossing your lane. Part of waiting for the gap is waiting for the exiting traffic to clear. Not for only YOUR lane to be empty.
The time period matters as well. Just clicking your fingers is loud enough to give you hearing damage if sustained for 30 minutes. I would not at all be worried about hand dryers unless you sat next to one all day.

I am glad I found a bank (N26) that rarely if ever blocks my payments online. I travel frequently and my previous credit card would block all kinds of payments regularly.

If possible, find yourself a bank that enables you to spend money and leaves “security” in your hands. My 2FA is via app, never SMS.

Almost certainly. I'd guess most of these services are usinf BSSID (more or less mac address of the access point) instead of SSID and not using channel number or signal strength.

If you report GPS position and BSSIDs anytime you see them, you can probably approximate a location when you only have a BSSID. IIRC, precision is fairly low for wifi approximated position, but maybe it's gotten better since I last looked.

If you want to do a test, I'm happy to send you BSSIDs or whatever you need by email (address in profile) and you can geospoof to my house. I run too many APs, so it should work with just mine, but I can sometimes see neighbor APs as well.

Google's api documentation [1] has only the macAddress as a required field, and that you need at least two addresses; but it does accept a signal strength measurement, as well as channel and snr. Other apis may vary.

It's pretty close to the theory end of the theory-application spectrum, so it could touch on many aspects of implementation. I suggest it may inform architectural improvements and/or better justifications for gradient descent training schedules.
Just being voluntary on its own makes a huge difference, as well as having some control over your environment, and the knowledge you CAN leave if you really want to.

It's the same with noise and lots of other things: if you know you can turn it off it's a lot less annoying than when you have no power over it.

Hosts don't have to pay for superchargers. That's why they often show up at relatively small, or even mostly unoccupied locations.
I’ll raise the question.
For simple applications there's no need to learn about quaternions at all. There could be a library type called Rotation3D or something. You should never need to know which representation it uses. The important part is to know Euler angles are bad ;)

But once you get into something more sophisticated like using rotations in a dynamical system, statistical filtering, optimizing a rotation, etc., the abstractions begin to leak.
There aren’t numbers in your reference, just a set of recommendations. The author of the post tried to compare the performance overheads of using Coroutines over threads, that’s all.
So while more data might make things worse for you, that experience is not universal.

I'm surprised that the type of health data captured passively from a watch is enough to assuage the fears of any true hypochondriac. While they do capture some basic health metrics, it seems that there are many illnesses/disorders that would never be detected by the watch until they become an acute illness.
Fighting Jews is explicit in the Hamas Charter, and elections haven't been held since 2006, so I don't think it's clear that more appeasement could have prevented any violence.

I'm reading (well listening to) a sci-fi novel based on that premise called "Quantum Radio". Pretty classic techno-thriller, complete with shadowy organizations. I really enjoyed the premise and setup of CERN data being used as a quantum radio reading messages from the future, or perhaps parallel universes.
I know this sounds gross, and people will have a knee-jerk negative reaction to it, but washing your hands at all in many public bathrooms is pretty nasty. I guarantee my <encrypted> is far, far, far cleaner than anything I'd touch in a public restroom. If there's a sink faucet that needs to be manually turned on and off, that's going to be infested with bacteria. If it's a no-touch faucet, then there's no downside to washing (so long as you don't touch the rest of the sink), but I've always felt that all those air-blasting dryers were just blasting bacteria all over the place.

I always wash my hands, because societal norms strongly discourage any alternative. But I have no illusions about the fact that I'm picking up more bacteria half the time. If there are no paper towels to dry, I'll almost always just shake the water off and dry my hands on my pants instead. Beyond the bacteria-blasting, I find that hot air dryers take way too long and still leave my hands damp anyway.

And if you touch the door handle on your way out, you've thoroughly undone any cleaning you may have just performed.

Thankfully I'm not a germophobe, so I follow societal norms and wash lest I'm called out on it, and don't actively think about any of this.
Doesn't matter. Global economy runs on dollar not euro. If they do exactly the same what US does they'll get hit by inflation even harder.

> Teslas 2019 and earlier will need a CCS retrofit to use all chargers.

I prefer to say that only about 75-80% of Teslas on the road are able to use the new NACS chargers without an upgrade.

Given the widespread prevalence of superchargers supporting all Teslas, I don't see this as a big issue.
Haha. I should say "other areas" in Michigan - 35 years here and I've never seen one with my own eye besides some ambiguous scary looking clouds.

This is silly, no Teslas charge at 400 KW, so obviously that doesn't exist. Noone within the industry has expressed concerns in making the NACS connector do 400KW.

It already runs at higher amperages than CCS, despite the lower KW.

Much ado about nothing?

If there are so many bacteria already milling about in the air, you'd have already breathed in billions (?) of them before you got to the dryer.

If you are not immunocompromised, you do yourself a disservice by being so worried about bacteria. I don't bother with attempting to avoid or prevent that might merely inconvenience you for a while but is eminently treatable at home (flu, for example).

I’d be interested in your thoughts on the case where the f_i are optimizable: f_i(t) = K(t, z_i), i=1..m << N. Like the representer thm but much fewer terms than you have data points to fit. The points z are usually called inducing points and may be optimized by gradient descent.

There is literature on approximating exact GP inference with (something like) these objects when m << N (variational inference).

However, I’m not aware of anyone drawing a clear picture of the other direction, starting from the optimization picture and explaining it in terms of inference, similar to what TFA does.

In TFA the number of functions is large, so the system is underdetermined. In the variational inference the system is overdetermined and I wonder what inference, if any, gradient descent does..

Caveat: 1am and a few drinks deep so if I’m not making sense that’s ok

Therein lies the rub (or more precisely the problem) advertising at its core does _NOT_ have to be evil. Taking into account that the onus of every advertisement is to entice you to do something that you may have otherwise not considered we still do not negate the need for an advertisement to be evil. Now, you may very well be enticed to do something that is not in absolutely everyone’s best interests in mind, which does indeed qualify as evil. And I believe we agree that there are far too many advertisements prevalent that are indeed evil when referring specifically towards advertisements on a digital medium. So I think that the argument is valid that ending all advertising would ultimately prevent all evil advertising it would also prevent any not evil advertising from ever happening as well. Now again, that may be perfectly acceptable to you, your argument that advertising should not happen at all isn’t really practical for absolutely everyone who does or doesn’t support your absolute opinion on advertisements, as contrary to you, but they want you to simply affirm that their opinion is not absolutely based on them supporting the evil ads that you both abhor.

Temporarily slowing down down 99 scammers is not worth stranding one normal person in a foreign country with no means to access their money and no means to recover their account.

The reality is that most lockdown-type protection schemes are just a roadbump, not a solution. They slow down the attacker. In fact, hackers are employing account lockouts to lock security teams and management out of their own accounts when they launch an attack.
