What about an automated subway? It's just a box on a track, with the state of all the trains in the track known, self driving would almost be overkill for subways/trams/trains.
It's still public transport. There's no need to hold off the development on both ends.
I'm not very well versed on this subject, but have there been any experiments conducted with a doorway in the middle of a basketball court or a field?
I'm sure that would mess me up for a good couple of minutes as well. It's not just doorways that lead to a different room, it's just the fact that there's a doorway present, that changes my context of things.
Maybe I'm the weird one.
So they've hashed your account details. They won't delete this. Great
I encompassed 'roids' to mean more than just steroids in my mind, including EPO's and blood doping, when I was typing it out furiously.
I'll correct myself.
My vernacular did highlight the haste at which I typed it out. I should have given my points more thought.
He just had to be made an example of, by people he had pissed off. And he was brought down by his own disgruntled teammates. Not by a + test.
It's widely known that athletes at the highest level have encountered people who use roids. If you just don't inject yourself to the gills with it and cycle out, you stand a good chance of passing the test.
You can use it and compete with the rest, or you can choose to not use it and watch the others run past you in a pace you thought was supernatural.
Bikers used to drink alcohol and climb the hills in the Tour all the time. Is alcohol not performance enhancing when it dulls the throbbing pain in your legs?
Bring those cyclists down too. Then you'll have everyone's support.
Make a league for people who want to use roids, and for the ones who don't. It'll multiply your revenue 2x, organisers.
It's super interesting, BECAUSE it's the first time I'm seeing those stats in the form of a 'heatmap'.
You're optimising for quality. And I just happen to think that's right.
Cookie cutter data intro's that walk you through installing anaconda....& and end up with some plt.plot(x,y) might gather some views. But they don't add anything to the ambient noise in the room.
They only encourage the (I'm assuming beginner) blogger to publicise their future work, as they've now experienced 'blogging'.
That's the only good outcome I see.
Perhaps I'm wrong.
- Is it your CV (your portfolio to the outside world) ?
- Did you stumble/are stumbling across something that you didn't find many answers to ?
- Did you find a better path than the beaten one?
I've not found any of the above reasons, hence I've not blogged. Maybe I'm wrong.
I recognise your symptoms as Obsessively Compulsive.
I'm one of those people who has to hide his symptoms from everyone all the time and disguise them as "oops I think I dropped my keys, I need to go in an out of this doorway 12 times whilst checking it". I waste at least an hour of my life in my OCD rituals, and I'm all too aware of how I come across, to other people as well.
Your love for quantum mechanics might just be that, your love for QM.
Everyone is disagreeable & eccentric to some extent when they were young, including the world's great engineers/theorists.
There's more to this equation, add parameter of hard work, a bit of obsession (or 'passion', whatever that is...), a bit of environmental 'push', and THEN perhaps that might yield a 'great' individual who does that one thing very well.
It's an immediate 'close tab' motion for a lot of people.
Cut that part out and you'll have a lot more eyeballs on your product.
The whole thing started with someone finding something wrong with the 'Curl' wrapper around a packet that's being sent from A->B. Apparently, this violates a EU-CMA security protocol, and this is an issue. Lots of holes in my knowledge there, but I got the jist.
What I don't get, is HOW this became a bipartisan issue with HN/Reddit. Because if you read the 124 pages, it becomes clear that both the IOTA team, as well as the MIT team were bad at communicating with each other, the purpose of this bad communication is unknown, but both are at fault.
So we at HN look at some emails from IOTA and call out their unprofessional behavior, and Reddit does the same thing with MIT's team.
What if someone has no perspective of how these communications usually take place? It looks like (upon the assumption that IOTA's team member was indeed in an 'incomprehensible' state when he typed that email out) MIT's team member without a second warning, just went ahead with publishing the paper.
So what's the big mess? It's pretty clear that both parties messed by being sloppy at emailing each other.
A major part of the solution will be to get together and try to understand each other. Not to delegate this to a bot that'll spit out some random LSTM generated "words".
Our bots can help solve some problems in our communication, and can help us communicate when we cannot physically do so. Hawking will testify to this perhaps.
They should not communicate instead of us being able to do so.
The original link on the other hand just dismisses this as "he fled to Hungary". True, but an incomplete truth.
There's been a huge amount of negative sentiment on it's flattening, and more talk about the bonds being overbought...
China's sell off [0] was interesting and generated a lot of chatter about the value of the bonds, but it was to serve their interest (S&P lowered their ratings[0]), rather than them acting on some information.
But now, the yield curve has risen even if it's overbought?

Edit: Even if it's an account held on a private server, there must be a password, must there not?
Perhaps the data is the result of the experiments that have been paid for by a third party, fine, but please mention that! People might be willing to pay for it, for example, me!
What's wrong with "Here's the raw data, here's how we measured it, Here's how we've shown the data, and look you can see for yourself that we are right! oh and the data costs $$$ much." ?
I understand experiment reproducibility is not incentivised in academia, but then why make it hard for an external party to reproduce it/study it?
Do we have to go through the usual "Contact the academic, maybe they answer, and maybe you'll get the same (version of) data that they used in that experiment, maybe you'll have to go through Elsevier, oh and you must have .edu/.ac.uk address to be taken seriously through all those requests."
What a chore. Just adds to the hate towards 'experts' and their opinions.
As Turkey becomes increasingly alienated from the EU, Putin looks to gain another monster.
Regarding procrastination, the advice on tying small tasks together is bang on. One task leading to another usually results in a more productive day, I've found. The pessimist in me wants me to credit/blame this to the games I've played as kid, where the level up/task done dopamine boost is enough to get through the next level/task.
YMMV.
Hey, I have a few questions regarding the Econ-PhD you're doing. (Basically questions about the work you're doing, is it worth it??...etc.) My email in my profile if you'd like to get in touch.
(By is it worth it, I mean your personal opinion on the value you are getting from your current area of research, which you've mentioned is HFT)
Eh yeah, that's because there are other words for money. An Economist thinks about resources, their (perceived) value, and less about cash. It's because cash somehow ends up representing those points.
That doesn't mean an Economist 'thinks/talks less about money'.
If your viewers are recurrent, then you might want to ask them to support you via a 3rd channel such as patreon?
You need not lose revenue from the content you create through alphabets' vague rules and products.
My email is in my profile if you'd prefer to tell me more about this offline.
