That's a very thoughtful comment!

You're right in that if the factory wants to misbehave and the owner/GM is a tyrant, you aren't likely to directly impact worker treatment (we have in-house auditors in China that can check on the factory for you if you have that specific concern). Fortunately, the overwhelming number of factory owners/GM's are fundamentally decent people caught up in difficult circumstances.

Typical contracts are structured 30% deposit and 70% when it ships. Margins to the factory aren't 70% so they wind up quite leveraged. Most of the scenarios I saw came out of the factory not understanding or executing on the customer requirements correctly. If they build units and the customer rejects them, they have to cover those material costs so they can repair or otherwise try again. This tremendous financial pressure causes otherwise good GM's to cut corners every possible way they can to try to keep the lights on.

GetScale impacts worker treatment in several ways:

(1) it eliminates waste and errors that result from misunderstandings in customer acceptance procedures. After deploying us in a factory you just don't encounter thousands of bad units because the factory is confirming against the exact acceptance procedure as you go (instead of build a lot, ship, customer receives and rejects).

(2) it is possible to audit your suppliers and if you do that, GetScale provides the ground truth of which workers were working at which stations when and for how long (down to the millisecond!). Since you have to login-logout to do any work our records are very accurate.

(3) it enables you to vote with your dollars. Without invasive monitoring (like GetScale) it is very difficult to determine which factories are "good" because reputation is easy to coopt and places like Alibaba can be bought. GetScale data collection is automatic and the data is held off-shore (in the US). We already see factories in China using GetScale as a selling point to foreign clients since it provides quantitative proof of their compliance and performance. A factory that is willing to be open about its performance and let you document workers on the line is the factory proud of its worker treatment, not the one trying to hide it.

As to studies, I have seen some in both the psychology of management literature and the manufacturing management literature, but as to specific citations I will need some time to dig them out of my research notes.

In any case, I hope I've answered your concerns. If I missed anything, please follow-up!

LoadJS is an extremely lightweight async loader/dependency manager that is meant to be embedded on every pageload. It has a payload size of 590 bytes (minified + gzipped).

RequireJS is a fully-featured dependency manager that works in legacy browsers. It has a payload size of 6.2KB (minified + gzipped).
It's often only %10 of vested equity, once every one or 2 years.

Also remember that if your $5mm company becomes a $1b unicorn after 4 years, and you got %0.5 at the start, then through dilution your %0.5 stake can become a %0.05 stake. Which means you get $500k / 4 years = $125k/yr in stock. But you cannot sell that stock, so it would of been better to go work at apple. It's very rare that a startup will pay better for an employee better than the big cos.

Assuming that's not a lie, were they working on that because the 'researcher' (quotes due irresponsible 'testing') had been sending FCA what they found instead of their own internal decision to improve things and they knew this (specifically) was coming at some point?

I've always liked France and its culture, and I speak French on some level, I guess that's why I take personally all bad things that I hear from France, as if they concerned mon pays natal.

Having difficulty with social interaction due to a medical condition, IMO, doesn't make one an "asshole", any more than a cancer patient who lies in bed all day is "lazy".

Nausea is mostly a solved problem at this point. Oculus and Vive have both done extensive testing on nausea and few report it on the new consumer versions.

The reason Oculus took so long to announce a consumer version was largely tied to the fact they hadn't solved the nausea problem. Now they have.
Machines: Yes this was the 80's (sorry I didn't point that out my mistake) and things have changed. However to that point if you have your golden machine operator turning out good work (and he is only 1 of 2 on a particular line) and it's not easy to hire a replacement, let alone a good replacement, you tend to get a bit lax.

Security: I am primarily a business guy (who does some light programming and knows Unix since the 80's) so I hire others to do work for me. I am just thinking that for the people that I have hired in the past how would anyone know if any of this is happening (other than code audits) and what is the mechanism to make sure the right thing happens even if you know what the right thing is? It's kind of a version of the advice "make backups but make sure that you test your backups as well".
Do you need 32GB of RAM in a laptop? 16GB ought to be enough for anybody ;).

Sarcasm aside, this is probably purely business driven decision. The tech is there and it's nearly zero difference for the manufacturer to put either 8GB or 16GB dies on the board. It's the same as with SSD's - companies have to milk existing capacity tier to offer users next ones, otherwise they will have lower profits.

Same here. To me, alcohol tastes like a detergent. Maybe you could get used to over time, but never had the desire to. So I am nearly 40 and have never been drunk.
Just to be clear, I don't think radical feminists shouldn't be taken seriously, just the extremely radical shouldn't. There's room for radical feminism, not for hate.

"Male tears" isn't a radical feminist thing, many non-radical feminists use it. Actually, it's quite the opposite, it's men who have always said feminist women (radical or not) are anti-men, so they decided to play along and made a joke about it.

While I think "male tears" isn't anti-men, I do think it could be against hegemonic masculinity, which is when men are told they have to be strong, non-emotional, etc; e.g. the past few days people have been talking about some research that implies that male gamers who harass women (i.e. they comply with hegemonic masculinty) are "losers", and some people have talked about it using #maletears. There's some anti-hegemonic masculinity Schadenfreude going on there. Some people think #maletears create a stigma around men who do cry, but it's also the opposite, it's joking about men who think they can't cry, they should be allowed to cry if they want to.

About the #killallmen, I think it didn't get traction where I live, in Brazil, I hadn't heard about it. I'm not sure what is it about, but I can see how some feminist women would argue that men do assault and kill women every day, systematically, so it could be sarcastic. Also, as something that would instantly backfire, it could be an attempt to destroy feminism from within, but you see, any feminist with a basic understanding of gender theory would immediately see thru that: men are not all equal, just as women are not all equal. So, let's say, if we're killing all men, what do we do to trans women? See, it doesn't work in a feminist framework.

The first layer only contains basic features, which are shared among different sets of images[1]. It seems that the ImageNet photos themselves are indeed very protected[2], so I should probably use another dataset as input. Plugging in my iPhone camera roll should result in very similar filters. It will be very interesting to see how much they differ.

Update: The author of Caffe just got back to me with word that the filters are in public domain, therefore safe to use as design elements.

FCA deserved the press, but demoing it on a public road (at high speed) was horrendously dangerous and irresponsible.

I'd been using $script for quite a while until I noticed that it was executing callbacks even when the dependency didn't load. After looking at the source code, I realized that it's because it was designed to work with legacy browsers that don't have onerror callbacks. Since I'm only focused on modern browsers and $script isn't maintained anymore, I wrote LoadJS to add success/fail callback support.
I'd recommend encrypting your private keys if needed with a pass-phrase. I'd also recommend still requiring a sudo password on the other end and sending auth events to a auditing server.

2 factor with a token is ideal, I suppose I should have added that to the list, but that is outside of feasibility for most users.

Still, for someone who doesn't have RSA tokens etc available, assuming your remote machine doesn't get owned and someone doesn't extract your pass-phrase with a wrench, that list makes for a very secure system.

That's a really neat idea!

You are describing a type of machine called an AOI (automated optical inspection). It is a common piece of equipment in electronics assembly lines. But AOI equipment is very expensive (~$250k+) and only works on a specific set of products. For example, it doesn't work well when the product contains soft or flexible surfaces, or has a highly non-planar shape.

GetScale terminals can be interfaced with AOI machines in the factory to collect and store the findings along with our human-led inspections and catalog everything by serial number and we do have ambitions to add AOI-like capabilities to our hardware down the line.

Sounds like you have a project in mind. What are you working on? ;-)
They're especially useful in agriculture because rainfall, and crop water consumption, are typically measured in inches of water. (Which is really a kind of "cubic inches (of water) per square inch (of land)", but the units cancel out.) So if you know the net water requirements of some crop given the climate, and you know how many acres of land you intend to grow it on, acre-feet are a natural, easy-to-calculate unit to measure the water supply needed.

No, it's the only easy option they have.

Take all the vulnerable vehicles off the road. That's another option they have.

> How would you fix the issue for existing vehicles?

Have dealers yank the cellular connection in every vehicle and refund the customers something for removing a feature the product sold with.

Nothing else will fix it in a short timeline.
Think of it this way. If you created a private key and uploaded it to a public website where everyone could get to it (say you posted it to HN ;-), how exactly is your system less secure than with password based auth?

You still need a passphrase to decrypt the private key. If you bump up the number of trials, you can make decryption even slower. It's going to be harder for someone to crack that than a normal brute force against a password.

Now, if you put that key behind a decently secure storage service that you use TFA to access, that's actually way more secure than just using a password.

Given that, the question ought to be whether you upload the private key to the cloud, or try to manage the private key yourself. Password based authentication shouldn't be one of the options you are considering.

It's not illegal to hack your own belongings. It may be illegal if you trespass on someone else's network to do so, or if you manage to provably put the public in danger, but merely discovering a security vulnerability and exploiting it in something you own outright is not illegal. Chrysler's statement is overly broad IMO.
That makes sense. But Elixir is pretty fantastic itself, so I imagine a lot of people would stick with it rather than moving on.
Well... But isn't the way that they solved the nausea problem that they managed to get very, very, very low latency between your head movements and those movements being translated to the image you see?

All the hardware improvements there presumably don't help if there isn't a different image to view when you move your head.
It gets even worse because there are no relative clauses! I guess you could refer to the entire dag as a "sitelen" (here 'image, picture') and then say "mi mute li lukin e sitelen ni. ona li jo e ijo mute e linja mute..." and then refer to the dag as "sitelen" on every subsequent reference.

Well, no, not that.

I'm not sure. I myself see the emotional landscape only dimly.

My life got a lot better when two things changed for me.

One: I accepted that some people around me ("that happened to be" female) were remarkably better than I am at understanding my motivations and predicting my behavior than I am. Same for third parties.

A fascinating aside: People (including me) are motivated more powerfully by emotions (like fear) when they aren't aware of them--and many people who don't think they don't experience strong emotions are really quite wrong.

And two: that the goals emotionally intelligent people set are worthwhile, even thought they might sound like complete nonsense at first.

By allowing women into my life (not just the technically apt ones) my life was improved.

Note that I don't ask "how should I achieve X", I ask "what should my goal be in situation Z".
While I'm a big believer in defense in depth, I think this adds a lot more complexity on the usability side without really improving the overall security. You'd be better off just protecting the private key with more trials and storing it with whichever cloud storage solution you have the most confidence in.

It's very difficult, and not recommended unless they are ESO fund style loans, where you don't pay anything if the stock goes to zero. People did similar shit as getting HELOC loans in the dot com bubble, and it did not turn out well for them at all.

Cash is cheap for a few large banks and other organizations rolling in money. Not for the middle class / upper middle class employee.

Capital losses are only allowed to offset your normal taxes by a small amount in the USA.

Also companies drag their feet in getting you the proper documents that you might be missing. It can take months and those 2-3 months later, ESO isn't interested anymore. It's happened to me.

The motto is 'trust but verify', and indeed that goes for your backups as well. And incidentally that's one of the most failed items during the dd's I've done and after verification several companies turned out to have lived without backups at all.

It usually takes two things to go wrong for a disaster to happen: some $0.05 part that fails and a procedural error.

And the consequences can be just about anything.
I've made no normative arguments here.

To amend yours, one such normative claim might be: "Since all of these other groups managed to unbend themselves when the economic factors were right, we (society as a whole/at large) should figure out how the groups (or treatment thereof) which didn't unbend themselves differ from those that did."
> Is a modern, object-oriented Basic really friendlier than Python or Lua?

QuickBASIC had User Defined Types, FreeBASIC not only has Pointers (and therefore Function Pointers) but also adds methods to TYPES which are defined as Subroutines just like in C++. In Fact FreeBASIC can be thought of as a covert way to learn and understand C++ for QBasic programmers.

As for it being an informal or hobbyist language, if one begins by designing the proper data structures and adds the adequate functions to handle them, the resulting programs can be just as capable as those designed in any other language. Being able to think like a programmer makes all the difference, not the reputation of the language being used.

As for Blitz3D, it can access external DLLs. DLLs can be easily written and compiled with freeBASIC. No problem for any adventurous BASIC programmer.

As for your BASIC dialect you can take a look at [1] to learn how to write your own in FreeBASIC or QB64. This code can be easily understood and ported to any language.

[Edit] The standard library may not be as complete as Python's but FreeBASIC can work with most DLLs compiled with C and the documentation will mention ways to include C headers and work with various external libraries.

The climate control isn't mechanically independent of the engine and other mechanical systems. Even in the primitive cars before digital contols, the heater is dependent on the engine's thermostat (well except for old Bugs and 911's, but then that heat never really worked). In modern cars, the AC may be connected to the engine control system so that power can be redeployed for fuel efficiency or for power in emergency situations or to keep emissions within specification.

"Climate control system" is an abstraction over belt driven moving parts.
I tried doing unit testing on our SPA codebase (200 k lines JS) for a while, but found it to not be worth the effort. UI is better tested through integration tests. We use selenium instead of jasmine these days. We have a ton of unit tests in the server code though, because it makes more sense there.
One thing that I have seen over many many years in business is the need to decide where and when to cut corners and take chances. I have definitely seen that after the fact you could feel "geez I should have done that how stupid" but before something actually happens things aren't so clear that resources and time and money should be spent preventing something from happening.

I have noted that if I did everything perfectly (and I am not talking specifically about money) I would never have made any money at all. (Exaggeration for effect.) There are always things that you can think of that seem like a good idea and you can't do all of them. I take the time and put in the money and effort to rotate and store offsite backups. However in all of these years that has never been needed. But God knows we all are aware of a ton of small businesses living on the edge who probably don't have good onsite backups, let alone offsite and they do have information that they need.
