The concept you are looking for is market power or monopoly power. But in reality it should be anti-competitive behavior and market domination. There isn't anyone that would argue that a single or a group of firms dominating a sizeable amount of market, enough that they could, not that they do, influence and undermine the competitors is a desired status quo.

A good market competitiveness index (or really a set of indexes) should also influence automatic scrutiny.
It’s easy to subscribe to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency[0] and receive updates on cases of AI in livestock across the country. I was a subscriber for a year or so and thought it was fun but ultimately received too many emails — sometimes multiple cases a month. Not once did any of those get blown up to a media-worthy case, which I always found interesting: relatively high frequency but low severity.

I suppose the “severity” is low only because the rate of transmission to humans is low. The article mentions how we come into contact with wild animals especially birds more often than we might think. I wish they expanded on that — from touching things in public? from unwashed food? These aren’t wild populations of birds right?

Also gotta love the “we’re hoping no more transmissions occur and the mutation dies out” statement. I mean I don’t have a better plan.

“Dyck, who is the Canada Research Chair in Molecular Medicine and heads up the Cardiovascular Research Centre, says his team did not observe any detrimental functional effects in hearts of mice with smaller hearts and thus would not expect any overt health effects in humans.”

I think forecasters are scared of exponentials. If they project a linear, for the immediate short term they get better wins. The problem is that planning often maps out 5+ years and if you miss the doubling potential in the explosive growth you basically mis-planned.

People want independence from the billing cycle. With the decline in systems reliability overall, having your own solar "feels" like it helps. That absent batteries it may not, and that it also has causative qualities to the systems reliability isn't material. Its what people feel about it.

The fear in the asset holders over being stranded is huge. Down here in Australia unavoidable systems charges are not the majority of most people's bills, as the semi-hemi-private-regulated market operators rush to get profit out of the capex.

If you can afford to go battery+solar, the cost to unbind from the net is also a huge dis-incentive. Better to stay connected, pay service charge, and find an aggregator to arbitrage your load into a value proposition.

The whole "Chyna is stealing our solar lunch" thing is tiresome. If they want to dump solar panels on the world, I say go for it: The more the merrier.
The problem is that you want torque not being equal to energy.

Specifically you have:

torque = force * distance

energy = force * distance

The only difference being that in the former the farce is perpendicular to the distance, and in the latter it's in line with the distance.

A vector based system could distinguish the two, but you don't always want to deal with vectors in your computations. (And I'm fairly sure there are problems where even using vectors ain't enough to avoid this problem.)

This is false. If you mutate the DOM on the page, you're trivially detectable. Unless this is meant as a honeypot you should at least warn your users that you're only undetectable as long as the edtech sites don't care to try.

The cognitive dissonance is that "Mother Nature" would not fraternize with a company that treats oil barons like welcome bedfellows. The progressive marketing image that Apple promotes is insanely dilapidated when cross-examining the values they promote in real life.

> Assuming they have something like morality seems absurd.

That's the ultimate grab-bag defense of morally indefensible businesses. You could say that about Meta or Google but I'll be damned if they don't have dissonant marketing too.

It's not worth taking this personally when I'm just highlighting a proven fact. Apple could sell liberal customers a concealed firearm, and they'd all rush out to buy it because MKBHD and Snazzy Labs said it fired nicely compared to the Glock 18.
The HN you are yearning for disappeared about 8-10 years ago when it was largely taken over by normies and people way outside the hard-core-tech fold. It's not very different from Reddit front-page now if the topic is even remotely political.

For purely technical topics you expect good quality discussion, but those threads barely get comments in the two digits.
I am also fairly sure employees are generally not personally liable.

The issue here is while employees aren't personally liable if they discuss Google wrong doing, Google is liable, which causes the culture of secrecy and deletion.

So the comment I was replying to is kind of wrong about "liability" and the root cause here. Because yeah..Google isn't gonna not be liable for stuff they as an organization of people do. That can't be helped.
Why would anyone think niantic would protect user-data from profit?

One hypothesis for why you see both anecdotes is that the IRS is extremely good at filtering out these cases… when they bother to look into it. A lot probably get by without ever being audited, but the small percentage that do regret it.

That seems more like a cognitive dissonance some people might have about Apple then, not one of Apple.

I personally use their products but have absolutely no illusions about them somehow being "the good guys". They're a for-profit corporation with interests and aesthetic preferences that sometimes do, and sometimes don't, overlap with mine. Assuming they have something like morality seems absurd.

Basically no... Analytic AA is a really hard problem for video games, and I know of no general purpose solutions.

For font and 2D vector rendering it's likely, in fact afaik, some solutions, such as Slug already do.

But for 3d rendering I don't know of any solutions.

For an intuition, consider two triangles that intersect the same pixel.

Consider if say one has 20% coverage and the other 30%, does that pixel have 50% coverage, 30% by one, 20% by one and 10% by another, or any other conceivable mix? It's very difficult to say without selecting specific points and sampling directly.

I have noticed this too. The site guidelines say 'no low effort comments', but low effort comments that fit the general zeitgeist are often allowed, while well-thought-out ones that disagree are downvoted.

All companies should be truthful, forthcoming, and specific about how they will use your data, but…

If you enjoy the game, play the game. Don’t boycott/withhold because they figured out an additional use for data that didn’t previously exist.

Another way of viewing this: GoogleMaps is incredibly high quality mapping software with lots of extra features. It is mostly free (for the end user). If no one uses it, Google doesn’t collect the data and nobody can benefit from the analysis of the data (eg. Traffic and ETA on Google Maps)

There’s no reason to hold out for a company to pay you for your geolocation data because none of them offer that service.
There is no dissonance with Apple only their customers.
This is a common myth. This might explain why Harvard or MIT tuition is high but not the average college. Tuition mostly reflects staff costs and those have been going up due to Baumol's cost disease. Dentists, along with many other industries with its main cost being highly educated staff that haven't managed to scale production like online brokerages, have had a similar price increase since 1970.
Something like Clojure would be perfect for this. Write a macro that converts

{"name" (includes? "k"), "age" (< 20)}

into

{"name" #(includes? % "k"), "age" #(< % 20)}

which is the same as

{"name" (fn [name] (includes? name "k")), "age" (fn [age] (< age 20))}

Then have another macro that converts that into the pattern matching code, or maybe there's already something in the standard library.

You could serialize the patterns using EDN as a substitute for JSON.

Fun stuff.

I wrote something [similar][1] in javascript. With that it would be:

const is_k_kid = tisch.compileFunction((etc) => ({
'name': name => name.includes('k'),
'age': age => age < 20,
...etc
}));
const result = input.filter(is_k_kid);

Yes, "...etc" is part of the DSL.

It's not unreasonable to think that Rust will change the minimum version and you should always override the target cpu anyway for C++-like toolchains when building production binaries (`-Ctarget-cpu` for rust, `march=` for clang/gcc).

I've found that a set of features is not all that important, and in fact leads to languages like C++ or Java that are actively unpleasant.

I don't think so. I wanted to voice this quickly without a detailed rebuttal as yours is the top comment and I don't think it's correct. Hopefully someone will do my homework for me (or alternatively tell me I'm wrong!).
SIMD can work quite well here too - with 128-bit SIMD (available on both baseline x86-64 and aarch64) this can be just ≤8 loop iterations checking for the newline character (each iteration counting the number of newline characters encountered, and a lzcnt on the last iteration), and similar for characters (assuming valid UTF-8, it's a single comparison to test if a byte starts a new char).

I dug through it a tiny bit because I was curious as well. To me it looks like OS-specifics aren't dealt with in the project. It uses bun to run the TypeScript.

>The problem is that most employees are not lawyers so they cannot make a proper legal judgement on their routine works.

but the executives are much closer to understanding the legal issues, so when an unsophisticated employee suggest something that is against anti-trust, the boss should say "no, we can't do that, it's anti-competitive"

the issue is not speaking against interest, it's engaging in illegal behaviors.
After I saw yesterday’s thread about politics in science was flooded with new sockpuppet accounts named after slurs spreading filth and downing everything they don’t agree with I no longer expect anything meaningful from comments here.
Part of the problem is that the standards are incorrect. If you go by dietary standards, you are eating way too many carbohydrates and likely eating too many times a day, especially if you do not have an active job.

Most people should mainly be eating fat and protein with a decent amount of grains and fruit and vegetables. However, the standard advice is to eat a lot of grains, some fruit and vegetables, a modest amount of protein, and little fat. This is awful and leads to very high hunger. Especially if you eat multiple meals a day, as is also commonly recommended, this is a recipe for being ever hungrier day by day.

It wasn't until I eschewed all advice, started eating one big meal a day and maybe one snack and matching my carb intake with my fat intake that the hunger that I had known since childhood magically disappeared and I lost 25 lbs (and am losing more). Finally a 'normal' weight seems not only in sight, but extremely easy!

Ya know, I could have sworn I remember reading a little bit about COVID in Nov of 2019, but my recollection doesn’t line up with the Wikipedia timeline. I remember being nervous around campus at the time… although there were some other pretty bad colds going around that year, so maybe I just got mixed up.

I think I recall a little bit on Reddit in Dec 2019 and Jan 2020, is that plausible?

Anyway, “early COVID” had a feeling to it—stuff was going on in China but news was taking a long time to trickle out, probably just because of the language barrier, and also because nobody (general public-wise) was paying attention to that sort of thing. The bird flu stuff seems quite different, it’s been reported on quite a bit, people are hyper-vigilant about this kind of stuff now, and it has been bouncing around quite visibly in non-human animals for ages. Plus it is in the US, so we hear about it immediately.

Not saying it isn’t anything to be worried about, but we’re getting updates in realtime.
It's pretty clear that GLP-1 should be prescribed with protein powder. When your appetite is crushed you don't go for the chicken breast, you go for what is immediately appetizing (usually carbs+fats like pizza or fries). IMO this and a lack of resistance training (which should also be prescribed) probably makes up a large % of the muscle loss on these drugs. The problem is that the FDA only looks at dumb measures like weight lost, not body fat % when approving these drugs.

>> The real problem is that the political capital needed to get people to agree to something like lockdowns or wearing masks was all spent in 2020

> Let's not act like this attitude emerged out of thin air. Trump also had an opportunity to bring Americans together against a common threat, and he (and his lookalikes abroad) decided to turn it into the cultural catastrophe that you're now supposing was inevitable.

I don't agree with your implication, because I don't interpret the original statement the same way. The attitude was present, Trump turned into a cultural catastrophe. What political capital that remained was spent. We have less agreement now among the population as to what is acceptable and what is useful than before the last pandemic. The trenches have been dug, the no-man's land will be filled with mud and bodies.
Maybe they trust Pokemon as a IP? Usually Nintendo keeps your data safe.
This is a terrible mistake. People see Prusa as a premium brand mainly because of its long history in open source. You can buy a similar Creality printer for like $200 from Amazon vs Prusa's $800 or whatever shipped from Europe already.

Barring any overwhelming breakthrough, other brands have them beat on price and performance. Hopefully they at least keep middle of the road models as open-source for those who really value that. I anticipate that the open-source printers will outsell the closed-source ones, unless they conceal the fact that they are now closed source.

By the way Prusa, if you don't want to help the competition, maybe don't let Prusa Slicer slice for other printers. But that cat is out of the bag, and it's also probably a marketing tool at this point.

Circle involute is one of my favorite curves. It has a particularly nice Cesàro equation: κ = c√s. It also has the unusual property of being its own parallel curve. Thus, if you were to draw a curve using piecewise circle involutes, you'd have an exact mathematical offset.
