They adjusted the results for the excretion ratio (adjusted for urinary creatinine and specific gravity, respectively).
Note that at least in Europe the toothpastes for children contain no fluoride.

It's not hard to make original music. It's easy! But it's way harder to find listeners of original music.
People like what they already know...

What a bullshit. I'd call this Russian way of doing business, where you benefit from unhealthy connections with state. 2500 houses? Go find out how many houses are there in California.

Re:Tesla Autopilot Crash: Why We Should Worry About a Single Death
on Monday July 11, 2016 @02:47PM (#12073294)
We should worry because of the blurred responsibility. Have you ever seen large company responsible for death? This is how it works, you will die and there will be nobody responsible for this.
Tesla is not safe car, it is as safe as Honda Civic, with ~40 deaths per million cars. Do the math if you don't believe me.
Re:Nano is no longer a GNU project

What I meant here, is not that GPL was not tested in court. Just imagine situation of one of the authors saying: I no longer want to see my code on the Internet. Let's say he contributed 30% of the code. Now what? He is the author, he has the right to do it. In most cases developers sign no agreements when their patches are merged.

It makes me happy to see this. But still I'd advise using developer agreements, if you want the control of the project. And correct license of course!

In most countries law does not `see` GPL. Law sees authorship. And in open source projects the authorship is not clear. You can be 5% author of the code. So be careful what you are doing with the code.

I suppose in most countries, one cannot sign away personal copy rights. You are always the author. But one can easily give right to use the work because of author's economic rights (and one must obligatory specify the fields of exploration in such agreement).

These are about violation of GPL, none of the suits was filed by individual developer who was contributing to the code base. Show me better examples.

Do you know that according to copy rights, open source projects are mess. Nobody tried it in the court, but if some developer contributing to project went to court saying "This part of code is mine, I don't want it to be modified by other people", then the project could be in trouble. Nobody tried that (yet).
That's why some OS projects require signing Developer Certificates of Origin etc.

Try doing this - I created a full piano synth like Pianoteq working in realtime on Linux. Took me about year to complete (with breaks).

Bullshit... this is still encoding. It does not matter that it is using neural network to encode frame. Guys, when you get over this neural network hype?
I can as well create and encoder using some machine learning, to create a blurry and inferior version of the movie. But what's the point?
I could as well used other prediction method with some kind of memory, much superior and nobody will enjoy it.
Summing up: nothing impressive here.

Interesting that Polish wikipedia has more information about this than English. It says that military accident was not likely.
