> Waymo self driving works within a defined subset of the problem space

"works" includes a failure mode of "alert a human and ask them to take over."

> when new areas of problem space are explored.

The problem space is that the "rules of the road" are both legal, technical and social. All of which have internal conflicts as well as conflicts among each other. Anyone who has driven in severe weather has realized this in one way or another.

> For example, imagine a full self driving car trying to get out of a city that's flooding due to heavy rains, while having to compete with people fleeing to higher ground on foot.

You really aren’t. You’re talking like someone who is willfully ignorant of the decades of internet history that have preceded this conversation.

The British view George Washington as among the greatest Englishmen.

The American cause had many English sympathizers, from William Pitt the Elder on down, before, during, and after the Revolution, which contributed to the rapid resumption in good relations (with the War of 1812 being a minor interruption).

I agree property taxes are inherently problematic and potentially even dangerously unjust - they are one of the few major taxes that continue even after income has ceased.

We (usually) don’t tax food because it’s “necessary” and then tax houses? The “homestead” exemption is usually a farce.

I could be convinced that a 0% property tax on dwelling units, owner occupied (with reasonable limits to prevent Elon Tesla from living in his factory) and instead applied against commercial property would be fine. Could also reduce the expanding “all housing” suburbs.

I appreciate the history because I've been through all of it.

But, I don't think you guys are right. You can have a distributed system that also has authenticated posts. It's been done before, and it will be done again.

And you can delete things. You just gotta trust nodes to also delete them and they probably won't.

This is an interesting idea. The way I see it, there is a lot of really high quality content that does rise to the top of YouTube. But also the feed has a lot of recency bias. So a great creator who puts out things once every many months, ends up having their stuff at the top of the pile for just a week or two.

So as time passes, high quality quickly gets buried by the mediocre barrage of content.

So an interesting feed would have some dimension of time-indepedence.

Really made me think. Thanks
I'd say the headline is mostly accurate, but easy to misinterpreted by a general audience. It's "technically correct".

I wouldn't worry too much about the linked page though. This is the kind of website which underlines keywords for search terms on the same website... That's always a red flag for for me indicating an uninterested seo focused spammy publisher.

Those gains are taxed (minus the exemptions, which perhaps are too generous).

Part of that is to prevent the “I can’t move from my house to the identical one across the street because of taxes” issue.

Design is way more important than just what things look like. But it contributes to a product's success in ways that are sometimes hard to measure. That's why engineer-driven company don't understand it and engineers (as a sweeping generalization) usually hate it.

Don't look at our search service as deeply correlated to the indexing model. That's not the point of the comparison, and our search service is quite subpar. We've only had time to put an ElasticSearch instance against the data, do some basic tuning, and then keep it online while we focus elsewhere.

Such a universe would have to have so radically different a conception of physics that it doesn't really apply to this analysis. Orbits are a pretty fundamental concept and you lose those in n>3 spacetime.

The authors also didn't consider the possibility of different geometries - e.g. hyperbolic space or time[0], or perhaps Nil[1] space. However, I suspect they would all have the same stable orbit problem that n>3 space runs into.

More damning, IMO, are the ultrahyperbolic (n>1 & m>1) and elliptical (n=0 | m=0) PDE spacetimes. These are spacetimes in which you can't compute physics, period. No alternative rules of physics will save you.

Apache OpenDAL is now Graduated
The reason Bell Telephone built that organization is that they had a government-sanctioned monopoly on local phone service, and to justify the continuation of this, they wanted to find ways to show they were contributing to society.

Could someone like Google or Microsoft build a Bell Labs today? Yes, almost certainly, but there's no financial incentive to do so. And the shareholders would not be pleased if you told them you were going to spend their money on something with no connection to the business.

A bigger question for the present is: why are the universities failing so badly? Their incentives have not changed, but we don't get the kind of innovative research we got out of Bell Labs. I don't know what the answer to that is.

Yes, Math Academy does exactly this. They have a graph of topiv (in small-sized chunks). Each topic has a lesson with exercises and reviews (based on spaced repetition).

It's hard to understand how well it works until you've tried it yourself for a couple of weeks. Also it assumes you'll study at least a few times per week.

> Turing predicted it would happen around the year 2000 and take ~1gb of ram

Turing was right, but he believed in human intelligence, so thinking linear.

Unfortunately, neural networks appear harder then sought, because Forward-Forward learning with which working human brain, is now considered too computationally hard to be used practically.

Reverse-Propagation neural networks are much easier computationally to achieve, but are magnitudes less dense than FF, that's why we have so much delay - just need thousand times more performance, this is about 30 additional years.

PS I tried Llama 30b on my computer (honesty, tried all Lllama models could fit in 64G RAM, from 13B and more). It is not sprinter fast, but I'm very impressed, on how deep it could think. I must admit, I don't want to talk to many humans anymore, as It looks smarter.

I have been thinking a lot about exactly your point here: That a lot of knowledge work seems to emphasize letting the employee manage themselves. SCRUM is this also. Which leads to the question: "what is management even doing / what is management for?"

I once read a book that management is purely about surveillance. They are purely there to watch you. Narcissists, as a personality trait, are people watchers who like control. So basically you end up creating a class of people who are almost guaranteed to be narcissistic in nature.

Corporations are veritable laboratories of mind control, psychology and propaganda. It is really quite complex and weird about how it actually works. It is otherwise totally illogical.
Wow, what a misguided and dumb "solution." If they're going to be that controlling, at least they could have enforced a truly helpful set of aesthetic guidelines.

> Instead it’s stuff like the fundamental nature of specific organizations/ideas. You can far more easily find an agnostic Catholic than one who believes the Catholic Church is irredeemably evil.

I don't think one's opinion on the Catholic Church could be said to be "foundational"–for the vast majority of people.

If someone dislikes or disagrees with Catholicism, likely that is because of some other belief against which they are judging Catholicism – and that belief is more fundamental to them than any of their beliefs about Catholicism.

An atheist disagrees with all religions, Catholicism included – but their atheism (and related views such as anti-supernaturalism and physicalism) is far more foundational than their views on Catholicism specifically, which is just the application of their general principles to one of many specific cases.

A follower of a competing religious tradition – Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, Protestant, etc – disagrees with Catholicism whenever it contradicts the teachings of their own religion. But, once again, their belief in their own religious tradition is more foundational to them than their rejection of Catholicism whenever it contradicts it.

A social progressive disagrees with Catholicism's teachings on abortion, LGBT issues, the role of women, etc – their beliefs on those topics may well be foundational, but their judgement of Catholicism is not foundational, it is just an application of those (more) foundational beliefs.

I think the only people for whom their views on Catholicism would be foundational, would be some devout Catholics. But, even among devout Catholics, I'm not sure if all of them would label their belief in Catholicism as foundational. Some might. Others might argue for Catholicism on the basis of philosophical and historical arguments, in which case those arguments (and the principles which underly them) might be said to be more foundational for them than Catholicism itself is.

The slaughter of indigenous had occurred also under British colonial rule in the Americas.

It isn't like taxes were the sole issue.

British control of the Americas was too weak to enforce the Proclamation Line of 1763, which "marked the beginning of a clear ideological break with the mother country" quoting https://www.mountvernon.org/library/digitalhistory/digital-e... . Also from that link, "the British government viewed westward expansion as a threat to their mercantile economic system, expressing concern that opening up the west to farming families would provide the colonies with opportunities to gain economic independence through commercial agriculture."
This method also seems like it may fall victim to the Dunning-Kruger effect; team members who should be "asking", or at least "showing" their work, but default to "ship it" under the impression they know what they're doing and just want to get it done and move on.

I like the concept in theory, but it relies almost entirely on the personal opinion of the submitter, and I'm not sure the submitter is always the best judge of what level of review their own work requires.
