There are plenty of ways for anyone to get a picture of my face. In particular, the State has a copy of my photograph, and almost certainly full motion video of me in the DMV getting said license.

I just don't like the fact that my face becomes a password. I'm usually not in a position to _obscure_ my face, so I have no chances to decide if my face should act as a password in any given moment or not.

So, if you hold the phone up to my face, and I look at it, it just unlocks. That's the opposite of "security."

If the correct labels in the original training set outweigh the incorrect ones then it is possible to reduce the number of errors by relabeling using the trained model. If you can also identify labels that are likely to be incorrect and then have humans focus on relabeling those you have a way to efficiently improve the data.

I might be wrong but for me it’s because IRL this isn’t an issue. Users shouldn’t be finding/using random URLs to navigate the site. Where is this broken URL traffic coming from anyway? Are you trying to solve for people that randomly edit the URL and expect it work, most people don’t care about those users getting 404 because they should expect 404. They’re not real users they’re just playing around.

However, If you purposely changed the URL format after a lot of people have the old format bookmarked or indexed on the web, then do a 301 redirect to the new URL.

I’m not sure of the SEO implications of the described solution, however it seems like only risk and no upside.

People have tried to get Micro-transactions off the ground many times - and failed every time (so far) - because Visa/MasterCard aren't interested - and getting people to change payment provider to use your thing is an impossible barrier to entry.

So, no micro payments per page/episode/content chunk - that just leaves subscriptions. You pay a weekly/monthly/whatever fee for access to the thing. Getting people to subscribe to things is _also_ a huge barrier to entry. Getting people to subscribe to _lots_ of individual things is impossible (there's only so many subscriptions people are willing to have), so you get bundling & centralization - i.e. cable/netflix/patreon.

Or you run ads.

My understanding is that some of that money goes to creators when I watch their videos without ads.

None of that bothers me. Premium content and access will always be a thing. It's the fact that the producer, the network, and the advertiser are the same entity.
Sorry, my wording was a bit unclear: what I meant was that they were probably taking the limit of

\int_{0}^{r} s_{i} \* f_{i}(R - r)/r^2 + f_{i}'(R-r)/r

with respect to some suitable sequence of functions `f_{i}` (narrower and narrower gaussians, for instance), for which `s` is actually well-defined.
An interview for a backend dev position with a CTO where the only technical question I had to answer was "how would you design a messaging service?". Looking back I find those open-ended system design questions best. They allow you to show your expertise and understanding in various topics and the dynamics of a meeting where you discuss some architectural challenges makes you feel like a partner in the discussion rather than a student during an exam. It resembles real life work environment situations much better than solving riddles or answering some framework-specific questions. It's also two-sided - you may learn as much about the interviewer as they learn about you. Another thing is that it just takes 20-30 minutes and you're done.

Looking at flightradar24, the only real upset I see is the turn over the southern Sierra Nevada range which is also ~55 minutes before arrival into OAK.

Wonder if mountain waves play any part in this incident? It's the only thing I can think of that could possibly generate a dutch roll without continuing flight stability issues. (They could have also turned on/off something like the yaw damper in the cockpit but that's not specifically called out int he report)

I can't imagine the standby PCU causing this incident unless there was some kind of electrical or pneumatic issue causing it to engage.

But 737 + PCU issues (yes, I know it's been redesigned) is never a good day.

In the case of Tuscon, where Brad Landcaster lives, it is the upper Sonoran desert. You go look at the wildlands, and the trees do fine. There are plenty of water to support the life that is there.

There are lots of ways to work with that problem and Brad Landcaster pioneered them in Tuscon, including curb cuts. You use eddie basins (and other design patterns), along with native perennials. In the case of Tuscon, those would be the native trees of Sonoran -- palo verde, mesquite, cholla, prickly pear, etc.

The curb cuts he pioneered inspired municipal laws, and Tuscon started implementing those and their own basins.

The mesa that Tuson sits on top of used to have an aquifer. That's been depleted and the city has been pumping water uphill. It does not have to be this way.
I think a lot of people bought the PS3 as a bluray player.

The charts you link to show game sales that lag way behind the xbox. For example Skyrim sold 2.6 million in 2011 on the xbox and only a million on the ps3.

I only say this because I got my ps3 for free with the purchase of a Sony television at a Sony store (remember those?) in late 2009 and never purchased more than a bare handful of games which I almost never played.

After the cost-reduced redesign in 2009 Sony gave away a free ps3 with every television purchase in Sony stores for almost an entire year.

Skyrim was one the games I bought and it was so buggy, even for Bethesda, on the ps3 due to ram limitations (I've read) that I purchased it again for pc.

Used my ps3 to watch a ton of blurays and Netflix, though. My ps3 was, and based on those yearly charts a lot of other peoples' ps3s were also, extremely powerful streaming boxes and I only retired mine when I upgraded to a 4k tv and got an appletv 4k.
Empire building is a well-known phenomenon in organizations, but that still begs the question: Does it matter whether employees largely hired and retained for payroll metrics actually wiggle their mice or not?
To be fair, it's not really possible to come up with good policy to handle this at scale. It would be too intrusive to require employees to divulge their private financial accounts (and near impossible to audit that the employee has truly divulged all their financial accounts), and the more internal controls you put in place, the slower the deal-making gets, with no guarantee of good behavior.
Those come after fixing corruption. Roads and energy are important, but a road isn't going to help if bandits take everything you try to move on the road.
To me it's fascinating that you indeed _can_ speed up what appears to be a non-parallelisable task like parsing HTML (or JSON to a lesser extent) using SIMD. And that the gains are so substantial too.
The heat from vehicles isn't distributed spatially across rooftops/walls/trees where the heat might be dispersed; instead the heat from vehicles is concentrated and radiated adjacent to sidewalks (impacting pedestrians) and asphalt (which is effective at storing and re-radiating heat). Nor is it dispersed evenly throughout the day; congestion during rush hour will cause a spike of heat during the hottest part of the day with greater numbers of pedestrians experiencing that heat. Idling vehicles are also running air conditioning, and all of those idling/air conditioned vehicles will be creating an ambient atmosphere where their AC systems will have to run harder to create the same level of cooling.

As you note solar heating likely dominates the overall heating of the city but I would fully expect that idling vehicles contributes meaningfully to the pedestrian and driver perceptions of heat.

I think this is a good idea for a site like this focused around searching for things because if you're going here to look up "revive" you're already expecting a search result not necessarily expecting to find a precise "revive" out of the gate. Adding this to the rest of the site or for other non-search focused sites showing something the user didn't ask for just because it's similar could be a lot worse experience than signaling "not found!". Especially for how rare a plain incorrect URL is a problem vs an expired resource.
I didn't assume they were a collective. I read through many of the comments on the GitLab issue as they were happening and there wasn't as single valid complaint. Not one. Zero. Zilch.

It was opt in, full stop. That should have been the end of this aside from IT managers asking for a group policy or a was to disable the feature (in a nice way).

Everyone complaining could either not update or move to a different tool and ask for a refund... oh wait... that's right, this was open source software. And people wonder why no one wants to maintain open source software. Just add this whole ordeal to the ever-growing pile of reasons why it's almost not worth doing. People are so entitled.

Yes, it really is as simple as that. Legality aside, making such a car a reality is at the very least 1B€ in development cost (you have to do a new electronics architecture and probably a new platform variant). You will never make a profit on such a car. The customer base is tiny and expects low prices, but low prices can only be achieved with high volumes.
Perhaps you should go back and reread your initial posts

"One may definitely want to know all the people that liked a given Hamas post, BLM, Antifa, etc. How else are you going to keep the potentially disruptive and disastrous people out of your company."

The BLM movement is more than just protests and some who vandalized buildings, which I should add much was caused by far right agitators just as with the recent student encampments, BLM is a movement about equity in policing. Say someone liked a post about equity in policing with a BLM hashtag, your subsequent post:

"The riots, vandalism, etc was definitely under the BLM flag in terms of optics..."

Would have one classify the post that I described as the same as rioting and vandalism, yet you can't seem to grasp the nuance here yet you somehow can if someone were to like a trump post unrelated to Jan 6. By your logic laid out, many people view the optics of trump's rhetoric through the lens of the violence that he induced on Jan 6.

I should also not that I am not a proponent of lumping things together like this, I am simply using the logic that you laid out and applying it to a similar situation.

You seem to be able to apply a nuanced view to only one side and not the other. I wonder why that might be?

Someone supporting equity in policing via the BLM movement is not the same as someone advocating for violent protest and rioting just as someone supporting trump is not necessarily supporting the violent takeover of a capital building.
OK sure even if they didn't do that we're still left with "knowingly abetted a genocide" which no amount of open source work can ever balance out.

I think it really has to do with a having a noticeable line between an articulated face and simpler body for human like characters.

Thanos's face was really well animated. Even though it was mocap, he face felt like it was part of a living thing. When he talked, the rest of his body moved with it. I think the oversized head help give more room to transition. Contrast that to the faces from Cats. There is a clear delineation between the human face pasted onto the CGI cat body.

Clu's face also looks pasted on to a body. All the de-aging tech suffers from this because they are usually pasting a CGI face over a real body, and the micromovements don't match. Whatever tech smooths out wrinkles also seems to reduce fidelity.

Animatronics suffer from the same issue. Often the faces are highly articulated, but the rest of the body is just a frame covered in plastic.

Worf and Gamora were both real actors in makeup, so they still had all the human micromovements. And anything that is fully animated doesn't have the same delineation.
She’s low-key one of the most successful engineers ever in terms of bringing cutting edge technology to the mass market,

Of course, as a woman engineer to make it this far she’s used to not getting the limelight in a male dominated industry - which may also explain some of AMDs recent success.

Beginning of this year?

I tried only once watching something on youtube without an ad blocker... some bloodborne speed run i think, it was a little over 1 hour long. That was 2-3 years ago.

It was the first time I was using the youtube app on that tablet, I generally use it for text content.

Youtube decided it should give me 2 ads every 5 ... fucking ... minutes. I think that if it were television, it would have been illegal in my jurisdiction.

I ended up finding it on twitch.tv which I think didn't give me any ads back then.

Rightly or wrongly, people (in general) have been conditioned to believe that digital information is free and thus will not actively pay for it. There are some notable subscription based consumer services (mostly entertainment based) that have convinced people to semi-actively pay for content but they are (in general) the exceptions. Even then, many (most) subscription services can't resist leaving money on the floor and will also ultimately run ads in addition to the subscription.

Brad Landcaster lives in Tuscon and has successfully been able to implement the rainwater harvesting methods to provide substantial shade in his neighborhood. It's not just planting trees, but changing the conditions to support a forest ecosystem.

Water retention has a lot to do with whether water gets absorbed into the ground, and the best way to do this is provide organic matter.

Here is an example, this one from Andrew Millison talking about how the central canal project of Arizona accidentally created a condition that naturally supports a forest along the canal structure. It isn't because the canal leaked, but because the canal forms a berm structure, which then accumulated enough organics to retain the monsoon rains, that then jumpstarted the succession to a forest:

But it's not just the cost of the launch, its also going to be the cost of the satellite itself.

More mass means you need larger reaction wheels (or CMGs) to control the attitude of the spacecraft, larger reaction wheels means you need more power to control those reaction wheels, more power means you need more solar arrays/batteries, more solar arrays means more mass and moment of inertia...which means you need larger reaction wheels and on and on and on.

Often people talk about the "tyranny of the rocket equation" but many other things on a satellite are the "tyranny of other non-linear systems"

You can end up seeing that in companies like K2 Space. Their goal is to take advantage of cheaper launch costs with large, cheap satellites. But if you read in the article [0] they had to do things like develop new reaction wheels in house because "there was not a suitable supply chain for spacecraft bus like Mega Class". Starting from scratch on mechanisms like that for space is not super cheap.

As the sibling comments show, nohup does occasionally have sharp edges re: sharing/inheriting std* streams. I've also encountered inconsistencies when using nohup with lots of different users' shells (academics of wildly variable technical skill levels, shell environments/customizations, and opinionatedness levels): what, exactly, does it mean to be backgrounded per "&"? Does nohup+& sufficiently background all types of shell jobs (answer: no--and some of those jobs even make sense to use with nohup)? Can configs in {ba,z,da,k,fi}sh change the job control behavior so that "forgetting" jobs malfunctions under nohup (if that's possible, your users will do it, I've found--and then defend their bizarre choices until you give up and move on)?

In those cases, I've found dtach to be slightly more reliable than nohup. Frequently I'll try one and switch to the other. Less frequently, I'll correct users' configs/workflows that are necessitating the troubleshooting in the first place. Even less frequently, I'll dig into what was actually the issue :)
