My 2012 Honda Civic does not let me drive and watch movie. If the car starts moving the video is stopped. Has the regulation changed? Is it now legal for a car to play Netflix while you are driving?

Is there a central universally trusted authority that decides what is disinformation? Is actually having such authority a good thing? Note that I am not saying disinformation does not exist. I am saying that deciding what is disinfo is of

There are valid reasons to cite software, but just 'using it' is not a good reason to request citation in a paper. The software package needs to be somehow relevant to paper's content. Why cite a tool for running experiments

How does this work? You don't just go to local city hall or similar office to get a free ID when you turn particular age (15 in my country)? What is required to get an ID?

It is not a zero sum game. There are just finite resources, but that is nothing unusual. In the grand scheme of things there are finite resources in every physical system.

This is the way -- regular consistent effort. It adds up quite fast. I have a goal of reading 5 book pages every day. One might say that it does not matter whether you read 50 news articles or one book, but I feel greater satisfaction from

For me, commits are too low granularity. I usually give 1-2 sentence summary. I put detailed descriptions (sometimes multi-page with graphs and tables) into pull-requests. I understand that for projects with hundreds of collaborators the ne

We've been convincing people to get vaccinated so they can restart normal life again. It is no surprise that lots of people are getting frustrated if the promise has not been delivered and there is no end in sight. Particularly, when t

Recently I was attending several catholic weddings and I was taken aback by the level of religious fervor and literal interpretation of the bible there. I was expecting the preaching to be more focused on how to live a good life and be a va

Similar here, you can also look into philosophy instead of religion. I am quite fond of stoicism. Not that I follow it religiously or would even call myself a stoic, but I think it is one of the best 'tutorials how to live a good life&

I tried you.com about a month ago in beta. Even made it a default browser for 2 days. I like the concept but for me it is too early. It's also complicated because as a citizen of non-English speaking European country I need to be able

Is it optimism bias if the base-rate is objectively strongly in favor of "won't happen to me"? Even under totalitarian communist rule, the vast majority of population were not political prisoners.

Just an anecdote, but on Friday I posted a tweet about a research paper we did jointly with University. Both the main researcher (post-doc) and the professor we cooperated with do not have twitter accounts. Is there a stat somewhere about h

Small details like this make my day. I also love how it was basically crowdfunded by Japanese people. It quite strenghtens the symbolic value of the medal I think.

It is not trivially easy to add chargers. The energy needs to come from somewhere and be transported to the charger via some infrastructure. Sure, currently when there is an odd charger here and there it is not an issue, but if we want to s

The grid capacity is not infinite. Of course, we are going to improve the grid but it is not a trivial problem.

Are you sure you are in a high EV density area? Because I can't imagine how that can work out if more than a few % of cars in the area are EV.

The difficulty of this depends on the acceptance criteria. I can imagine that the industrial requirements for FP/FN count make this quite an interesting and complicated problem.

This is not a fundamental obstacle for the technology. Lots of stuff is happening in post-processing already.

It is good to mention that it this is not a global phenomenon. I am from Czechia, of course there are some kids diagnosed with ADHD and taking medication, but I would guess it is a very low number compared to USA.

Reason why I don’t want my team to overspecialize: I don’t want them to isolate and develop tunnel-vision. I want everyone to be aware of the project goals and understand the work that needs to be done to deliver value. My experience with t

Doubt it. To do anything beyond basic stuff in Prolog you need to understand its resolution algorithm. And it is not enough to understand 'what' it does but also the 'how' which is basically a backtracking algorithm.
