He might be hiding it, or playing along hoping to get access back later. Regardless, one thing I learned growing up with incredibly strict parents is that it doesn't teach you self-governance. Once he starts living independently, this could come back to bite him. There's also a level of animosity to your parents when they don't trust you that pervades the relationship. Add to that, a level of social isolation since almost every remote interaction is done on an app nowadays, I really question that decision to completely block him out.
They bring up a good point though. Society has decided that conventional steering systems are within defined failure bounds, assuming a perfectly safe driver of course. So to remove the steering wheel from a Tesla, FSD must be as fault tolerant as steering wheel failure limitations, plus some driver competence metric. Of course that also doesn't take into account the thorny issue of the intersection of safe actions on Tesla FSD actions to human driver actions. FSD has a long way to go.
In a commodity device, I think that would make sense. A steering wheel is life critical. No system is ever fault proof, and in the case of failure, you'll definitely want a backup here, unlike in a commodity good or service where a failure doesn't matter that much.
I don't see it that way at all. The NFT vector is arbitrary. The point was to drain his accounts and nothing more. If a less suspicious method was available, I'm sure the scammers would have taken that one.
That is a seriously good concept. Your metric works too good though, compared to the refresh rate of the listings so all the good stuff is sold out. If you had a mailing list I would definitely subscribe.
Would be cool to train an ML model to pick up the running shoes and orientation and put a camera by the garage. Spoofing concerns/false positives aside, maybe putting a tracking device in/on the shoe and listening for both those devices might be a better solution?
I think it's a case of defining what you know, and asking questions for what you don't know. But, of course that's easier said than done. Maybe you chase after a red herring, maybe you ask the wrong questions. But I think asking the right questions comes from expert understanding of the fundamentals of anything, which is really hard, maybe for a lot of new fields, impossible because no one has established fundamentals, unless you're really smart. Maybe you permute the thing, or its joined with another thing, so it really becomes it own new thing.
I personally hate the non-magsafe charger because I trip over it and yank the laptop around, but I can see the trade off in being able to use a single charger for everything. Because of that, I see the magsafe issue being a permutation, because by changing the environment that laptop chargers operate in, with the addition of usb-c, you've changed the game.
Yeah, I have two pairs of SE215s for convenience. But, replacement OEM cables cost 20-30$, and maybe it's the geometry of my ears, but I've had to replace 3-4 cables by now, since the cables, OEM or not, kept failing at the same section, at that metal wire you bend over your ear.
As far as their SE215 model goes, the sound, isolation, and ergonomics are great, but I've always had issues with the cable breaking at the ear curve next to the connection point to the earbuds.
Yeah, everyone in the enthusiast space knew all bulldozers were dogs compared to basically any Intel offering, but the market iterates so quickly it's easy to get out of date.
When my mentor was going through MANAMANA interviews a several months back for senior/staff DS/MLE positions, he was getting mostly mediums and a handful of hards.
Funny you say that, my current laptop has a really low wattage chip and as a result, a very small heatsink. As I was removing the plasticy thermal dividers that insulate the rest of the board from the heat of the heatsink so I could lap the contact area, I bent the heat-pipe and pinched it, since it was so thin and fragile.
That being said, that's a bummer. Would be nice to get a higher end compute option or one with a dGPU.
I'm waiting for something with beefier internals, or an AMD variant, or both. That being said, they'd have to redesign the power delivery system and thermals, so maybe it would no longer be as modular? Anyone with the knowledge care to weigh in?
I don't think this is as simple as a google search. This isn't a regular business, and it would be nice to get a HN-user-vetted answer on a retreat that doesn't try to upsell you, and offers the "right" daily events.
5 years later, browsing r/all is much worse in other ways. Porn has been de-emphasized, but every other post feels like an outrage post designed to evoke anger, often without any proof, and it's enough to get people completely riled up.
I think it captures the main point that Amazon hiring procedures for 99.9% of people are based on optimizing their bottom line. If they want something specific, they'll acquire it/copy the idea. Backend optimizations/tooling stuff I don't know. Maybe they're recruiting those people based on their research credentials.
