Tangentially on topic is there a programmatic way to export data from Whatsapp other than media? For example, if I would like to transition away from Whatsapp but would like to preserve old chats with friends that are no longer with us.
> This contributed to their success of getting DriveOS certified at the highest automotive safety standard, ASIL-D.
ASIL is just a risk classification scheme from A to D, with D being the highest risk of initial hazard.
TUD SUD certified that Drive OS is ISO-26262 complaint and that it can be used for a safety-critical application up to the highest risk context of ASIL-D (Think activating brakes on a AEB system, or deploying airbags).
Hardware companies design breakout boards for most semi popular sensors (including the SCD41 and the SGP41) so arguably if you can put things together on a breadboard and can setup I²C comms (for example with an Arduino library) then it is certainly accessible to a hobbyist.
The speed and flawlessness is quite impressive considering it is being resolved with what I imagine is noisy inertial data and a motion blurred CCD camera.
Is there any precedent in prior government bodies or other countries where you have a number of attempts or a moratory period to propose embodiments of the same law?
As in if you propose a law in a general area and gets shot down you cannot simply rewrite it slightly and once again pitch through attrition.
Something like 4 strikes and you can never bring it back to vote or for every proposal you lose a vote you cannot repackage the same core for the next 10 years.
Not just air pollution at large but specifically we are practically sunsetting diesel engines in most developed urban centres.
I can't find a quote but one trivia bit from 'diesel gate' is that the execs were aware of the neurotoxicity of NO2 and other substances that were found in higher concentration in diesel exhaust.
> in the real world today, of things that are not conscious becoming things that are conscious. Gametes.
This kind of goes into the whole research field of António Damásio on consciousness.
We can easily assess if a human is conscious from a medical point of view. But do we have a deterministic test to prove an abstract entity is conscious?
Are you conscious when you dream, or is it just a memory replayed by your waking mind? Or only when it's a lucid dream? Or are lucid dreams themselves just the illusion of consciousness?
What about when you sleepwalk?
What about hypnopompic and hypnogogic states?
What about chemically altered consciousness like blind drunk, stoned, tripping on LSD?
> We can easily assess if a human is conscious from a medical point of view
We can’t. We can infer, from what they say and whether they’re ambulatory, that they’re probably conscious. But we often get it wrong. Empirically, we aren’t that far ahead of Descartes.
