I believe they meant that the receivers/transmitters on Earth are likely newer than 50 years old. And you're also probably right that the hardware installed on the voyager could be several years older than the launch date of the craft

Not sure what your point is here since wrong code doesn't mean non-deterministic. How many of these yield different results with the same input and architecture?

What kind of data analysis do you run with Go and do you use an open source library for it? My experience with stats libraries in Go has been lukewarm so far.

Reolink also seems to work pretty well with local storage, notifications and no subscription or cloud uploads.

Reolink has some good options in this area. Both wired and wireless security and doorbell cameras with microSD storage by default, but FTP and SFTP can also be used. I've been happy with my (wired) doorbell camera with just a microSD card.

I think this trend is partially driven by the silent auto play that happens on YouTube. Baked in subtitles help draw people into the video.

I'll add that it randomly brakes hard on the interstate because it thinks the speed limit drops to 45. There aren't speed limit signs anywhere nearby on different roads that it could be mistakenly reading either.

Go has maps, json parsing and http built in. I'm not exactly sure what this person is referring to. Perhaps they are mostly interviewing beginners?

>Entropy, an Information Theory term coined by Claude Shannon in 1948, describes the minimum number of bits, on average, needed to encode a dataset.
Shannon didn't coin the term entropy. He borrowed it from the analogous definition in thermodynamics.

Since we can't escape these companies collecting our data maybe it makes sense to silo which data they're able to collect. Basically don't put all your data in the same basket.
Re:Firefox 87 introduces SmartBlock for Private Browsing

No one is suggesting advertisers tracking you is bad because people "can't control themselves." People don't like being tracked because, over time, private information can be inferred from your viewing history. Things like your age, gender, relationship status, income, ethnicity, education, hobbies, health concerns, diet, voting preferences, family names, etc. can all be known about you with high certainty simply by having trackers on the sites you visit. Ironically, this is exactly the kind of data you understand being concerned about before making several bad faith assumptions about why people don't want to be tracked.
