41,805,427 | comment | vvanders | 2024-10-11T02:12:35 | null | Not just torque, traction too.<p>VFD AC motors will intrinsically self-correct for overspeed when static traction slips and starts going into dynamic region (due to the frequency being slower than the slip/overspeed) and re-enter static friction region. DC or ICE will react to the lack of traction by turning faster as you hit the dynamic friction region and "spin out". Traction control is always reactive and lags behind. Last I read the difference in traction on rail for AC vs DC was on the order of 50%(!).<p>It's also why EV cars have stupidly awesome traction in adverse conditions under acceleration, trains had been perfecting that technology for decades. | null | null | 41,802,666 | 41,757,808 | null | null | null | null |

41,805,432 | comment | chiefalchemist | 2024-10-11T02:15:01 | null | I'm not a lawyer but the lack of donating is not grounds for a copyright violation. Part of having a copyright is defending it. This is why we occasional see a Goliath beat up on a David. If Goliath lets the David slide it could undermine Goliath's status as actively defending his copyright.<p>In fact, Matt shoots himself in the foot. You don't become a billion dollar company overnight. Zero to thousands. Thousands to hundreds of thousands. Hundreds of thousands to millions. Silence all the way. But billions and it becomes a copyright violation??<p>That's so ridiculous that only the stupid or the insane would believe it. Or both.<p>But this isn't about copyright. It's Matt looking for revenue and then manufacturing a flimsy excuse to demand money. Up to recently most of the WP Community drank the MM Kool Aid.

41,805,433 | comment | bruce511 | 2024-10-11T02:15:08 | null | The problem with speaking in generalities (about religion, or other) is that you likely have, or present, an incomplete picture, and one which fails to cover the very wide variety of things under that topic.<p>For example your categorization of "cannot tell fantasy from reality" would not be a good description of say a buddhist."<p>Equally binding a view of mental health to religion seems a stretch. Perhaps you have experienced that, but I suspect that connection is not universal.<p>I didn't downvote you, I say these things to explain why you likely were downvoted. Not because your post was about religion, but because your viewpoint is both unnecessarily broad, and kinda missed the point.<p>The point was that having an experienced advocate on your side, who understands the process, who isn't under the mental strain of a recent terminal diagnosis, can assist you with good decisions.<p>If you are in a community of faith, and it's likely that the leaders in that community have walked this path before. If you are not then seek that person from wherever you are in community. | null | null | 41,805,180 | 41,786,768 | null | [

41,805,436 | comment | josephg | 2024-10-11T02:16:12 | null | Nice! I’ll add that to my bag of debugging tricks. Because, It’s 2024 and conditional breakpoints still don’t fire consistently in my language / ide of choice. But this always works great:<p><pre><code> if i == 6 {
println!(“xxx”); // breakpoint set here in my ide
}
</code></pre>
The breakpoint always fires, and unlike an assert I can run the program forward from there to see why i == 6 (or whatever) is problematic.<p>In JavaScript / typescript you can also just write “debugger;” in the code and it’ll break on that line when a debugger is attached.

41,805,444 | comment | godelski | 2024-10-11T02:18:31 | null | Neat. But EXIF data is incredibly unreliable. It doesn't look like they're explicitly using it, but it is just noisier if you implicitly use it. Obviously this doesn't make this useless but it should be something to consider.<p>If you aren't familiar with this issue you can demonstrate this quite easily with an android phone. Go grab some random photo, edit the exif data so that it suggests that it was taken sometime in the past and then upload it to Google photos. Or even lazier, turn off backups, take a photo, wait a day or two, turn back on backups. Photos will add new exif data to it and log the date taken as the upload date. They don't overwrite the existing data, so you just end up having multiple and conflicting dates. What's a bit surprising to me is that these even happens with pixel phones, where you use the official camera app, and even the fucking name of the picture contains metadata specifying when the photo was taken. Kinda crazy when you think about it.<p>Which you could solve a lot of this stuff to a decent degree of accuracy with some regexing and a bit of logic, but you'll never cover all bases. Or you could throw AI at it and press your luck (I hope that if anyone does this they don't just train by saying a specific key is correct but you gotta teach it that there's context clues. Humans can do this pretty well because of context, and hey, even the photo can have context clues like a calendar in the background. You gotta pick that up from photos that had their exif data wiped). It's surprisingly a hard problem.<p>I'm bringing this up not to dismiss the paper[0] but rather to bring light to how even tiny corners of a problem that we might have taken for granted is far more complex than expected (even if 80% of the time the complexity is footgunning. Actually, especially when that is the case!). Also if anyone works in Google Photos... come on guys. Really? Can someone explain why this choice was made (in situation of Google phone + Google app, so full pipeline controlled by Google). There's got to be something I'm missing.<p>[0] My problem with the paper is it more reads like an ad aimed at technical users rather than research that clearly demonstrates that the results are due specifically due to the method they created and not other factors. There's a whole "productization" of ML papers, but that's a different issue. ML is fuzzy and we can be critical, encourage papers to be better, say how we'd get higher confidence in results, AND happy to see the work. Not all research needs to be the same and demonstrating that things are possible is a type of research. Just low confidence. But yeah, this does look more like an engineering project that hypothesis testing. | null | null | 41,770,389 | 41,770,389 | null | null | null | null |

Instead, landmark psychological theories that are discarded, result instead from public outcry, not falsification. Examples include Drapetomania, prefrontal lobotomy, recovered memory therapy, Asperger syndrome.<p>Trained therapists do no better than properly motivated laypeople. This is not meant to disparage either group, some of whom are very effective, but no one knows why a particular person becomes an effective therapist.<p>On leaving his position as NIMH director, psychiatrist Thomas Insel said, “I spent 13 years at NIMH really pushing on the neuroscience and genetics of mental disorders, and when I look back on that I realize that while I think I succeeded at getting lots of really cool papers published by cool scientists at fairly large costs—I think $20 billion—I don’t think we moved the needle in reducing suicide, reducing hospitalizations, improving recovery for the tens of millions of people who have mental illness.” (<a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/theory-of-knowledge/201705/twenty-billion-fails-to-move-the-needle-on-mental-illness" rel="nofollow">https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/theory-of-knowledge/...</a>)<p>All this will be swept away by a future neuroscience that will shape testable, falsifiable theories about human behavior. Today's psychological alchemy will be replaced by tomorrow's neuroscience chemistry. But as the above Insel quote shows, we're nowhere near that goal. | null | null | 41,803,379 | 41,780,328 | null | [

He even claims Google Canada as a client.[2]<p>His MO is selling people on his "exclusive network" of service providers and getting people not to trust normal doctors. He then comes up with a bunch of fake services to bill people for. He also really likes to prey on kids, because parents don't want to see their children suffer and will pay money if the kid says he's helping. Especially those that are wealthy or have trust funds.<p>The last straw was overprescribing benzodiazepines (incredibly addictive) to people with addiction issues.<p>He has good SEO, is incredibly litigious (why I'm posting this from a burner), and makes you feel good about your decisions. Most case managers do that. The service they sell is not better healthcare, but making you feel like you're getting good healthcare. Case managers sell you the idea that medicine is a giant conspiracy to bilk you out of your money. Then you accept paying the case manager a bunch of money, because at least *he's on your side*.<p>Generally, the doctors I see practice medicine because they want to help people, not out of a desire to make a ton of money. Sometimes their sales and social skills aren't very good because of that. OP wouldn't have had a better health outcome from a case manager in his blog post; just someone charging thousands of dollars for needless consults.<p>[1] <a href="https://doctors.cpso.on.ca/DoctorDetails/R-Rupert/0020809-25597" rel="nofollow">https://doctors.cpso.on.ca/DoctorDetails/R-Rupert/0020809-25...</a><p>[2] <a href="https://www.cieps.com/Faculty%20bios/bio%20-%20rupert.htm" rel="nofollow">https://www.cieps.com/Faculty%20bios/bio%20-%20rupert.htm</a> | null | null | 41,804,887 | 41,786,768 | null | null | null | null |

If I sell an ice-cream my interest ends after you pay for it. Equally I'm not going to withhold ice-cream from overweight people - my job is to sell ice-cream.<p>If the hospital was a non-profit, and they felt there was no viable appropriate medical intervention, and they sent the patient home with no action you'd likely complain about that too. (I would, I go to hospital with an expectation that they'll at least try to fix me.)<p>It's somewhat trite to blame the profit motive, partly because that encompasses all of us, and partly because hospitals and doctors are primed for action, not inaction. | null | null | 41,803,997 | 41,786,768 | null | null | null | null |

Instead, they are designed to furnish the eye (persistence of vision) with images that, in sequence, produce a sense of crisp motion to the viewer.<p>It's a subtle distinction, but the result is wildly different. In animation, the ACTUAL POSES matter a great deal. In mo-cap, they don't matter at all, it's all about regular sampling and then you just render (in 3D) what you want.<p>Video game cut scenes are what more-or-less raw "mo-cap" looks like if you're curious. | null | null | 41,797,462 | 41,797,462 | null | null | null | null |

41,805,498 | comment | jodrellblank | 2024-10-11T02:35:38 | null | Your point appears to be the usual "I glanced at APL and it is unfamiliar and therefore bad. I am going to dismiss it without learning anything about it - and make sure to tell everyone" which isn't enticing to put high effort replies to. Consider the exchange:<p>"I'm sceptical that one can write +.× on a blackboard to indicate matrix cross product"<p>"well, one can"<p>"it doesn't look like one could. This is not a low effort reply. Yours is a low effort reply. The 'real' way to write a matrix cross product by hand in chalk on a blackboard is with nested loops and Python".<p>The APL creator Ken Iverson's paper Notation as a Tool of Thought[1] talks through an introduction to why it was designed the way it was; to do things Python and Haskell and pseudocode and traditional math notation don't do. Early on he writes:<p>> "<i>APL, a general-purpose language which originated in an attempt to provide clear and precise expression in writing and teaching, and which was implemented as a programming language only after several years of use and development</i>"<p>To use a thing for several years for expressing and teaching mathematics, is evidence that it can be used for that. It was designed for things code and traditional math notation don't do, e.g. code doesn't hide irrelevant details, math notation has inconsistent precedence, both have instances of wildly different syntax and symbols for closely related concepts which hinder seeing the connections. Code isn't amenable to formal proofs, pseudocode isn't good at expressing a problem, only expressing instructions for solving a problem.<p>The APL of modern times has a lot added since 1972, but the core is still there.
