General Dynamics used to make these for the military - they're great for car diagnostics and such. The sunlight visible (transflective?) screen is a huge plus, and the whole thing is water proof: http://www.ruggedpcreview.co

Almost certainly a ticket from a for-profit speed camera that for all practical purposes is nowhere near a school/park. They invariably end up in places like this * , large multilane road with minimal pedestrian access and a park/

I have to wonder if they made an agreement to swap identities, otherwise Woods would have to be to be clairvoyant to know his hot dog stand colleague from 30 years ago is using his ssoc.

Love it, though I expect a CVE cargo cult army showing up here (something something man in the middle between the board and display something), blissfully oblivious to the fact revenue is the sole motivator behind all of it. I am curious if

Second that - for us it's a complete waste of time trying to go into manhattan from dumbo anytime during the work week, it's essentially a giant parkinglot from the bridges onwards. I imagine all the congestion toll will do is swa

This seems bullshitty / current administration PR stunt - why would IRS bother with things like audits, when cashing out people that have income w/o returns is way easier? The odds of someone having 7 figure income and tax return

If the outcome of the focus vs aloof aren't equally weighted, you'd sill come out ahead? Eg hunting when fixated on hunting, you bring back 5 times the food vs hunting while you're watching a movie in your head gets you 1&#x2

> The fact that ‘correct’ outputs are treated as if they’re the product of an in-any-way different process to the ‘hallucinated’ ones is the problem. Also this particular context just makes it easier to notice, compared a 5000 word gener

Intractable model error that's elemental to the approach won't get you any funding though. Anthropomorphizing statistical learning is how you build a hype machine to cash out people with zero handle on the subject. See the comment

if they recenter the GPA distribution for every class year, one should be more discerning when hiring 21-23 yale kids, since the distribution won't be comparable to the pre/post cohort. It's a bit ironic they've managed

That's great for the actual meat and potatoes, but like half of the codebase will be tied to whatever UX libraries (MFC on windows / Cocoa in osx) that won't port over. So you will be rewriting most of it in java script anywa

I still entirely don't understand the point of web assembly - at best isn't it a pretend emulation layer? You have to have some sort translation layer/virtual machine consuming the fake assembly and spitting out the real har

Yes somehow books/reading dominates as a vehicle of information transfer, versus conversing with someone that has the knowledge of the content, even when both are available? If the latter were strictly better, we'd have a lot more

Not uncommon, there was a ton of it after 2008. For steel and concrete highrises, it's not a huge deal. As matter of fact developers build these things in parallel, lower levels are getting interiors while upper floors are still open t
