The main purpose of constitutional protections is to bind Congress. Regardless of whether Congress is inclined to fix it, they couldn't really fix it anyway (short of a constitutional amendment), because otherwise the next time there is a crisis the Fighting Evil with Evil Act gets passed and undoes it.

The short version is after many years of regret, she made several phone calls and was surprisingly taken seriously when she was persistent.

> She knew how hard it was to take a stand. She knew how hard it was to do the right thing. And now she was going to do it.

> She called the El Paso Police Department and told the woman on the line that she had been a juror on a 1990 case, and that even after all these years she didn’t think the guy was guilty. The woman told her it was too late to do anything and hung up.

> Estella called back and talked to someone else. She explained everything again, recalling details from the trial. This time the person told her to dial the office of Jaime Esparza, the district attorney. Estella called and explained again what was on her mind. She was transferred to Tom Darnold, the head of the appellate division.

> DA’s offices get unusual calls all the time, including from jurors having doubts about cases, but usually these come immediately after a trial. Estella was calling about a case from when Bill Clements was governor. She told Darnold what she’d told the others: she didn’t feel right about the verdict. Something she said convinced Darnold to take her seriously, and he promised her he’d look into it. He read the appellate opinion and didn’t see any obvious red flags. He told his boss Esparza about the unusual call from the juror and about his research, and Esparza told him to keep digging. Darnold read the trial transcripts and saw that the case wasn’t the strongest the office had ever prosecuted. He noted the discrepancies with the car and clothes, and also that Carlos had a strong alibi. He went back to Esparza, who decided it was time to take the whole thing to the next level. “We decided,” said Darnold, “just to be on the safe side: let’s look further.”
Our population isn’t growing fast (.1% excluding immigration), but it is becoming more concentrated in fewer popular cities. Those cities of course, there is not a house for everyone, but there are plenty of houses in unpopular cities.

So we don’t have a residency system in the states, so everyone is free to live wherever they want, only supply of housing being a limiting factor in where they want to move (which we use the market to sort out).
It does not say anyhting about Space-Disco, the real techno.

It does not say anything about the Euro-Techno scene (2Unlimited Quadrophonia), part of Eurodance.

It does not say much anything the late Italo-House scene, heavy on Techno aka Italian Techno or Italo that gave birth to classic Italodance.

It does not say anything about the evolution of Italian Techno, the Hyper-Techno scene pioneered by Dave Rodgers, Andrea Leonardi, John Robinson, M.O.V.E. and Guio.

While I agree with you that pc gaming is such a mature space that you can have an entire lifetime of fun with a historical catalog, the games you are describing are brushing up against the category of “retro gaming” at this point and the performance you are describing would be considered poor in the year those titles were released.
Although there’s a few great series and movies in the catalog, even at half the price it’s not great value. I’d be very surprised if more than 5% of its subscribers only subscribe to Amazon Video, vs. getting it as a freebie with Amazon Prime.
The $1 bill situation has been so ridiculous.

I believe congress passed a law that prohibits the treasury from redesigning the $1 so it is stuck being mis-matched to the other bills.

Meanwhile everyone seems to have some kind of fit over switching to $1 coins. It never seems to take.

Those novel things only matter if there's a large enough, visible, positive difference to the customer. I'm not convinced they have anything like that.

That's all fair, and I'm a big believer in context for proper evaluation. My issue is really about the presentation. There's a pervasive issue in research that exaggeration compounds as if one work exaggerates its effectiveness that subsequent works have a higher bar to meet to show improvements and the frequent result is additional exaggeration (even in just small amounts).

> What do you think is the most important requirement?

Data quality and augmentation. I looked at the dataset[0] and the quality is very poor. There is very low diversity and it appears that it is composed of a few images and increased through augmentation. Augmentation should not be handled through dataset generation but dataset processing. Torch will even move bounding box keypoints when cropping or resizing images.

Data quality is one of the most important factors and I know it is common to just get labels to Turk or cheap services but you absolutely get what you pay for.

It will just make people hate you and build a devoted base against you. There is no justification for this. You should absolutely rescind the gate and delete all emails you harvested. Your licensing is already an agreement. Don't be shady.
> which is disordered and not ordered.

Which would like a bunch of randomized almost undetectable energy near absolute zero. So, I'm out on a limb past my comfort zone here, but my working model is:

Higher temperatures mean higher velocities mean the particles are less likely to interact with other particles and so their amount of entropy decreases, they become more predictable, have fewer possible future states, than they had before.

The second law just implies that work energy will always escape the system as heat because heat always moves from space with higher temperatures to space with lower temperatures. In a sense the universe is trying to move the hot things away from each other because it wants to be cold.

On top of that, vast majority of engineers and researchers who had joined the field, only did it in the last few years.

While, like with many other fields, it takes decades to get to a level of a well-rounded expert. One paper a day, one or two projects a year. It just takes time. No matter how brilliant or talented you are.

And then the research moves on. And more is different. A GFLOPS shift to TFLOPS and then PFLOPS over a single decade is a seismic shift.

Solid Queue and Understanding Update Skip Locked
Recently, 37signals open-sourced Solid Queue and Rosa Gutiérrez Escudero’s blog made us look into “UPDATE SKIP LOCKED”. Here is the blog we have written: https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/solid-queue
I’m saying why woke gets the bad rap. As long as woke people themselves won’t set sane borders for their movement, they’ll be seen as more vocal parts of it.

I see „alert to racial prejudice“ issues all the time. E.g. mass media writing Black but white. And all the „muh racism“ crowd is silent.

Woke seems to be all about hipocrisy tbh.

Antifa in my experience is much less hipocritical. More like they’re kids looking for trouble to went their frustrations in physical ways. Both types of skinheads, „antifa“ and „neonazis“ fit perfectly together.
I'm a man and got the HPV vaccine in another country.

USA is very strange in this regard. Last summer, 4 out of 4 pharmacies refused to provide me a shingles vaccine, even if I paid them cash and had a doctor's prescription. They said that they would get into trouble. I am 49 years old. Had I been 50, any pharmacy would provide the vaccine.

This is simply retarded.

Not only both of them are based on totalitarianism, they are totalitarian systems based on ideology.
Ha! if only that were true...

Maybe at a real modern "software" company. But there are plenty of places where 50% of their so-called software engineers couldn't write a simple program from scratch.

In fact, as I think about the cases I've seen, it seems to get easier with senior "SWEs". They can exist going to meetings and delegating work until one day they forget themselves and apply at a company that actually expects SWEs to have a basic understanding of programming.
As far as I can tell, and I’m happy to be corrected, most of the Apple trackpad “magic” comes from the software drivers, not from unique hardware. So making a frankenwork laptop wouldn’t really help unless you spent effort fighting with closed source blobs in an environment they don’t want to be in.
I think I still have one of those WRT54G's in a box here in my office. After it was replaced as a router it served as a wireless bridge for my og xbox. Worked great with XBMC for streaming videos from my NAS. What great memories!
It would be lovely if anyone could bother assessing HarmonyOS on the grounds it takes itself on, rather than these endless vapid articles discussing it only as it compares to Android.

HarmonyOS begat China's first ministry of open source, where all the big names lined up behind OpenAtom foundation, to carry the work forward. There's ongoing efforts in tons of sectors to use the technology: mobile of course, but also in-vehicle, medical, energy and industrial. There's a neat LiteOS based low kernel that integrates with the ecosystem,Linux, and now microkernels that can run Linux compatibility layers semi-alooe Fuschia.

The UI system is a pretty interesting thing extending TypeScript, ArkUI, with a very complete integrative ark tool.

What I find really unique and compelling is the DSoftBus, which is a kind of semi-automatic distributed object layer that apps more or less get built on by default. In theory, it should be a fantastic uniquotous & pervasive computing layer, where apps and devices by default can be accessed and controlled without the app or controller having to custom code the effort; many of the advantages of something like grpc but with automatic networking & not having to think about the effort, with distributed objects being more normal.

The Android story is so boring. Android is boring. Android has done almost nothing of interest for a decade anyways: like most OS it is still & subservient, barely present, letting apps run the show. It's such a boring story to discuss HarmonyOS on compare to another boring unmoving bland OS doing nothing. HarmonyOS has some interesting actual change its working for, and we should be actually diving into that, rather than this persistently bland ass coverage. Even The Reg fails to unearth a single notable useful thing to say.

I wish coverage were better. Alas Huawei requires a passport photo & bank information to sign up for the very powerful dev account. There's the OpenHarmony code available on the state run gitee, but there's very little help on how to assemble & turn the dozens of repos into anything usable, alas. And it seems like HarmonyOS Next is much more prosperity than the OpenAtom OpenHarmony efforts, further confounding assessment. Still, it seems like while some layers like the kernel might change, it seems like continuity will be maintained on many levels like DSoftBus
and ArkUI. It'd be worthwhile to actually dig in & understand merit here, especially given how bereft & unmoving OSes have been on all other fronts; Android support is not particularly interesting. https://gitee.com/openharmony
Apple will never build cars. Each dollar of car revenue will hurt their margins. It doesn't matter how lux the car is or the target market, it isn't going to happen.

Tesla isn't going to be able to hold their margins, either.

It's going to be more like Nvidia - Nvidia captures all of the margin in the servers - with some going to Intel or AMD - and SuperMicro, Lenovo, HPE, etc. eke out their existence on the low value chassis.
this is not much different than many Isarel people genuinely believes Jerusalem is their capital.
That would be debt.
I don't see that special sauce as ensuring market dominance. The established players can (and do) source their batteries from third parties, and that seems to work well enough.

If that vertical integration translated to a marked, obvious benefit to customers, then I'd agree. But I don't think it does. Certainly your average EV buyer is not going to say "I bought my Tesla because Tesla makes their own batteries". Why would a customer care about that? I certainly wouldn't.
while the LG Prada phone was announced (though not for US) about a month before iPhone [1], it was not available until after the iPhone announce so it not like it was a known item at that point. However, it was available (not in US) [2] a few months before iPhone was available so maybe there were people that used LG Prada then iPhone so a touchscreen phone was not completely novel.

however, the LG Prada was >$800 at launch so it seems that the impression was fairly limited to people who would spend $800 then $600 a few months later in 2007.

additionally, while the LG Prada had a touchscreen it wasnt really a smart phone. there was no full keyboard, texting and contact entry was with T9 [3].

I don’t think the saudis would be passive if that happened, they would take it as provocation from both Houthi’s and their Iranian backers. The KSA has their own squadrons of F-15s for reasons. The only reason the KSA doesn’t act against the houthis now is that it would drag them into a war with Iran, but f the houthis attack Saudi Arabia first, that war is inevitable. Pretty sure Iran has already told them not to do it.
Yeah, I thought that was weird. A modern ICE car and modern EV made by the same manufacturer have the same levels of smartness, generally.

Absolutely insane that his brother went and hired an expensive defense attorney and they somehow didn't bring up the results of the DNA test that would've exonerated him. It should've been his job to get the results or do something with it as the judge reviewing this case noted. The cops are also to blame, but that's in their nature. A person's defense is their strongest shield.

It's scary to think how this could happen to anyone.

The current ICE-age (pun intended) Auto OEM dinosaurs are struggling to transition themselves from metal benders, to software innovators.

Gone are the days where the complexity was in building complex Internal combustion engines (ICE), with associated complex mechanical drive-train.

EV technology has reduced the bill of materials to mostly batteries, motors and tons of software. The batteries and the motors (essentially the "skateboard" in EV parlance) can be sourced externally. The key differentiator is the software defined innovation. Everything from the connected mobility application, to AV/ADAS, the in-cabin UX, etc. And Apple already has most of the pre-cursors (chatbot, maps, CarPlay, OTA, iCloud for CDP, telemetry systems, etc).

Only thing not quite in place is the AV and ADAS systems. Which is where Apple is focusing their R&D.
Apple has basically been making cars for 16 years.

> MBux, anyone?!?

Not sure which iteration of it you have, but I've actually found the software on my 2022 E-Class to be surprisingly decent. I generally prefer plugging in my phone and using Android Auto, but if I don't need Google Maps to get where I'm going, I usually don't bother with it and the car's own system is fine.
No car has a net positive environmental impact.
With their other losses they'll need some impressive financing to get anything new off the ground. Good luck securing that in 2024. Even if they get it, they're gonna take another bath if they try to target sub-$25K with a crossover. That's ICE territory; hybrids and all-electric crossovers are already $10-15K more.
In my case it's because Canonical is once again going against the flow by adopting yet another in-house Ubuntu-specific solution that fragments community efforts and makes Linux less attractive to packagers. It's hard enough to get people to do builds for Linux, and it's clear to me and that nobody has the time and resources to package both for Flatpak and Snap.
Apple Pay in Japan is different and uses anonymous payment cards, you can be as racist as you want.

> if you think configuration and serialization are the same problem

Except that's precisely not the point...rather the formats they are written in are the same, they are indistinguishable.

Reductio-ad-absurdum, if all data exchange is the same then there is no benefit to any format, just write binary strings with null-terminal characters. Except for the many downsides to that approach, so it turns out that they are not the same...

And never-the-less, if all configuration were not serialization, there would be not be any need to be generating config via a different language per the OPs' post...

So we find the similarities between configuration and serialization to be more pertinent than their dissimilarities wrt to format.

INI is absurd for any complex configuration, "just use a turing complete language" is as good an answer as deciding to write binary data randomly...

In software engineering you can test things in something on the order of seconds to minutes. Functions have fixed contracts which can be unit tested.

In ML your turnaround time is days. That alone makes things harder.

Further, some of the problems I listed are open-ended which makes it very difficult to debug them.
This is a pretty good argument for having criminal jurors submit their verdict in the form of vote by secret ballot and then just having the court count the ballots and see if they were unanimous.
> "There are multi-day periods with low wind and solar output."

That's the real problem. Days of storage are required if most power is coming from non-dispatchable sources. Batteries are not cost-effective for that, at least not at present. Electricity to hydrogen and back is maybe 30% efficient. Pumped storage is much more efficient but you need the right geography - two nearby lakes at very different elevations.

This keeps leading back to natural gas peaking plants.

2025 BYD plug-in hybrid ute spotted in Australia

A prototype could use manually sourced news sites that consistently use datelines that are easy to parse. It could be hard to scale that up, especially for languages-you-don't-read, but could still be interesting.

Could also have a global weather data layer/view, since that'll be relevant for extreme weather events.
