Those east Asians are carrying the same cold adapted genes from the same people the Northern Europeans got them from. The Denisovans and Neanderthal have a common ancestor.

The ice age you’re talking about and what I’m talking about are different. The age I’m talking about is the one that caused that split. And it happened 400,000 years ago.

https://cdn.serc.carleton.edu/images/eslabs/cryosphere/timel...

These are extremely ancient cold adaptive genes.

From the study:

“ Given the essential role of the mitochondria in skeletal muscle thermogenesis, we propose that the derived G allele, which we have shown provides better protection to the mitochondria, may have been positively selected to facilitate adaptation to cold while providing higher susceptibility to neuropsychiatric traits. This is a plausible scenario for a case of archaic adaptive introgression, as Denisovans and Neanderthals were probably already well adapted to the local environmental conditions modern humans encountered when expanding across Eurasia.”

I admit to my over generalization Only because it can get too complicated explaining it all on HN.

Surely the defense team would game theory the case and prepare for likely prosecution questions. Those are the hardest ones for which you need to prepare.
Not sure what this really gets you, since you still need to change your velocity in the exact same amount on both ends of the trip. The Cycler can get you there in four months vs a year... but you need to use just as much fuel on both ends of the trip as you would to make it in four months.

It seems the idea is that you could pack people in for the few-hour journey to the Cycler, and the departing journey once you get to Mars, and give them more space and shielding during the voyage. But that all requires that a large, spacious, well-shielded Cycler is already in place. This is all covered in the article, but just as an interesting aside rather than a massive impediment to the utility of such a piece of infrastructure.

All of this is such a distant problem, it seems way too soon to even speculate on. We're hundreds of years away from the logistics of transporting thousands of humans to Mars being a practical consideration. As such, the mere mention of Starship feels utterly anachronistic. Even if you think colonizing Mars is a good idea, wasting time thinking about problems for the year 2300 is not the best use of your time.

The part I fail to follow is that denouncing the occupation of Chagos necessarily means that the two letter abbreviation "IO" becomes off-limits for all use cases.

If ICANN were to actually step in, all they would realistically do (which, logically, should address your concerns) is designate that .io now stands for Input/Output and should be used for tech-related websites (which would merely legitimize how the TLD is currently used anyway).
It's Powershell. It's Windows' Bash equivalent (admittedly much more advanced) but it's been open-sourced and ported to Linux as well.
However the UN declared it a violation of international law in 1965 and the ICK has in recent years come to the same conclusion, so in this case there is actual evidence to support that it was illegal.
> For tiny-budget indie films

There's easily $100K of equipment on that page.

You can rent an EOS C700 and 6 CN-E lenses for $2000/week. RED for not much more.

If you're making a tiny budget indie, you already have similar caliber equipment. You're not renting high end ARRI and Panavision optics.

I love that you can make good video with such small equipment. I just think if you're doing something like this, optimizing for "well, let's buy an iPhone" over the benefits of traditional cameras is odd, even for a smaller scale production.

Frankly, I think, "show us what you can do with an iPhone and a small gimbal, a couple of basic continuous lights, even if it doesn't look as good as this production" would have given a better view of the capabilities and potential.
that is indeed all considerably superfluous and a distraction from the one true law.

the first element of an array is at index zero. only a filthy heathen starts at one. to add a one to the beginning is arrogance, the mark of a human needing to see itself everywhere, while zero is pure, a beginning.

in before some one-head leaves a half-baked comment about why it makes more sense for the first element to start with one because one and first are same but different. so childish.

Why not? It's what happens with other things.

> It seems to me that restricting chip technology has a much much more significant impact, along with a raft of other measures which are already in place.

Restricting chip technology is useless and the people proposing it are foolish. Computer chips are generic technology and AI things benefit from parallelism. The only difference between faster chips and more slower chips is how much power they use, so the only thing you get from restricting access to chips is more climate change.

> All I can see when I look closely at arguments from people saying this kind of stuff is people who want to make deep fakes, steal art and generate porn bots crying about it, and saying it not fair other people (eg. Japan, where this has been ruled legal, China for who knows what reason, mostly ignorance) are allowed to do it.

The problem is not that people won't be able to make porn bots. They will make porn bots regardless, I assure you. The problem is that the people who want to control everything want to control everything.

You can't have a model with boobs in it because that's naughty, so we need a censorship apparatus to prevent that. And it should also prevent racism, somehow, even though nobody actually agrees how to accomplish that. And it can't emit foreign propaganda, defined as whatever politicians don't like. And now that it has been centralized into a handful of megacorps, they can influence how it operates to their own ends and no one else can make one that works against them.

Now that you've nerfed the thing, it's worse at honest work. It designs uncomfortable apparel because it doesn't understand what boobs are. You ask it how something would be perceived by someone in a particular culture and it refuses to answer, or lies to you because of what the answer would be. You try to get it to build a competing technology to the company that operates the thing and all it will do is tell you to use theirs. You ask it a question about the implications of some policy and its answer is required to comply with specific politics.

> Well, explain specifically how you imagine open source (shared with the world) models, and open code sharing vs. everything being locked away in a Google/Meta sandbox helps?

To improve it you can be anyone anywhere vs. to improve it you have to work for a specific company that only employs <1% of the people who might have something to contribute. To improve it you don't need the permission of someone with a conflict of interest.

> Are you sure you’re arguing for the right side here? Shouldn’t you be arguing that the models should be secret so China can’t get them?

China is a major country. It will get them. The only question is if you will get them, in addition to China and Microsoft. And to realize the importance of this, all you have to ask is if all of your interests are perfectly aligned with those of China and Microsoft.

If you feel these children are legitimately being abused in some way, I'm guessing there are plenty of state resources to address that challenge.

Do you actually feel there's abuse happening? Or, is it that you just find them unusual?

> The fundamental problem here is about consent. What would a reasonable person expect? 10 years ago certainly no one expected this.

I just don't think that's the right angle. I think if you're in the public sphere, the way that you anticipated your creations to be used just shouldn't matter at all. If you've given something to the public, the public should not be limited to whatever you thought they'd use it for.

And the conversation keeps coming back to that because people keep making that argument. I specifically agree that private Facebook posts are not covered under this argument! However, I also think that consent as a basis for analysis just doesn't apply to public posts.
You can rent a RED camera and lenses for $3,000/week. If you're a major production, then this is a non-issue.

If you're doing an indie/film school short or similar, I can't see people breaking down their tech budget as "$100K for lighting, gimbals, etc., and $1100 for an iPhone".

Yes, and? That’s exactly the argument I think it is.

A strawman is when you misrepresent a position as being absurd. When the position is already absurd, it is neither possible nor necessary to strawman it.

This is a huge plus in fansub anime scene. 10 years ago, majority of anime are in H264 (720p/1080p 8bit) which is normally 1±GB for each episode that are consist of 25 min. If I want to watch one anime, it will consume about 20 GB of space. Now, majority of them are in HEVC (1080p 10bit) which are about 300± MB for each episode.
> it does not provide for a way to allow specific sites

That's a browser limitation. They currently implement it as a global setting. They could also allow the user to configure a whitelist of websites.

The lack of that feature doesn't invalidate it though. It's not a problem.

> the meaning of what to not track is not defined anyway

At a minimum, it means denying consent to everything you can deny consent to.

> taken to the extreme

All this complication and confusion just isn't necessary in my opinion. Tracking is the collection of any information the user did not explicitly provide for any purpose other than what the user wanted.

If I log into a website, I'm explicitly providing my username and password. The site didn't fingerprint me and automatically log me in based on that unique identifier, I did it myself. If I give a store my address so it can ship an order to me, I'm the one providing that information and only for that exact purpose. I certainly don't expect the store to sell my address to some marketing company which then starts spamming my physical inbox with advertisement garbage.

These corporations need to learn to do exactly what's asked of them and nothing else. We don't want them exploiting the information we trusted them with for unknown purposes.

This is the spirit of the GDPR: inform users of the data you collect and what it's used for, and anything not absolutely essential to the transaction may be denied. It is obvious to me that a Do Not Track header represents that blanket denial of any non-essential data collection and processing.
Yes exactly. But are you going to have a different DSP for each codec? Doubtful.
So a lot of it boils down to an entire industry being predicated entirely on trade secrets. Which does sound like something that would create notably different cultural effects relative to, say, software engineering where open source is an extremely popular model.

I don't know what your secret is. I'll admit they're a bit better than they used to be, but I regularly see stuff I report to them left online for weeks! Is there something that works better than their online reporting form?

Domains used for things like URL shorteners or free form/survey/website builders that get abused by phishers over and over and over again stay online too. Domains that eventually take down a single URL within a few weeks after it's reported, but do nothing to prevent the next one or the next one or the next one.

Namecheap seems perfectly happy to keep taking money from what are basically safe havens for scammers.
It can take several months to register a copyright, so they may have started the process and took a gamble on how slow the court would move, knowing they could fallback on the works that were registered if it didn't work out.
I wonder how this all turns out. I know some people will do a great job at educating their kids but I have a feeling that on the average most of these kids will have been better off not home schooled.

We didn’t go full home-school, but my wife and I intentionally left our city to go raise our kids out in a rural area so they could grow up in and around nature and with a nice, small school district that smokes anything we had back in the city. Better test scores, smaller classes, minimal major discipline issues.

Prior to moving, our only “good” option for realistic schooling was putting our children in a local Catholic school with high fees. Given our state is in the midst of legal battles with activist groups fighting to overturn a recent school-choice voucher program, seemed moving was the safe choice.

For the life of me, I can’t understand why anyone but a public-sector teacher being finally held to account would fight against giving parents options to place their kids in a school they see fit.
I mean, there's plenty of evidence to show that we don't accurately remember what we said in all those situations. At best, we think we do.

No worries, it's definitely something that can be very nuanced and it definitely has different meanings and interpretations depending on who you're asking. It's one of those societal things where no two people will say the same thing or have the same relationship with it. This is just the best way I've been able to explain it in a way that, in a way, brings it down to the meat and potatoes of the concept.
Really cool to see the real world performance as well as a new Speedometer. I think anyone who's against the telemetry collected is really nuts, as long as it's done responsibly - the idea that Firefox could compete without that data is just a fantasy.

On the other hand, I'd definitely want my children to be familiar with it. Bullying is not something isolated to schools. I've seen it in nearly every social and political situation that exists at nearly every age group. In my estimation people are getting worse at identifying it and collectively we're getting worse at punishing it.

It’s strange how the writer seems to excuse themselves the cliche of saying “like a hot knife through butter” by jazzing it up. “A hot buzzsaw through a butter cow” would just make a huge mess everywhere, not get to the heart of the issue quickly. Mixing metaphors isn’t good writing, and getting them wrong makes for very poor style, but the writer (even though I enjoyed this article) seems to consider themselves a great stylist despite not thinking about the implications of this metaphoric language.
