" However, as YouTube commenter Shaimach points out, the Model S manual calls out this exact situation as something drivers need to be aware of:

Warning: Traffic-aware cruise control may not brake/decelerate for stationary vehicles, especially in situations when you are driving over 50 mph (80 km/h) and a vehicle you are following moves out of your driving path and a stationary vehicle or object is in front of you instead. Always pay attention to the road ahead and stay prepared to take immediate corrective action. Depending on TrafficAware Cruise Control to avoid a collision can result in serious injury or death."
I disagree. Delaying would have been much smarter.

That's not much of an argument. There has to be a standard where you consider the new and imperfect technology "good enough". Is Telsa's auto-pilot good enough? I don't know. My perception is that since Telsa is an underdog of the auto industry, they are more willing to take a risk and put the technology out there. If it turns out to be too unsafe, their company will take a huge hit. If not, they gain market share.

> The patent system was designed to foster innovation

citation needed. another interpretation of the law is that it was designed to reward companies commensurate to the size of their legal department.
The point I'm making is that we should not be concerned with making a perfect autopilot, but more importantly, we should not be concerned with making an autopilot that is as good as a human driver in all aspects in which human drivers are good.

We should be concerned with making one that reduces injury.

If that means that we have more low-speed fender benders--at the cost of zero drunk-driving accidents--I'm all for it.
What? That just makes the incentives for patent trolling go up.

I disagree. I have a friend who is occasionally weepy, but often they cry with joy rather than sadness. They can see something beautiful and appreciate its beauty so deeply that it causes them to shed a tear of happiness. It's a wonderful thing to see. It's like they're more attuned to beauty that I can't perceive. Like how a high-sensitivity radio receiver can detect very faint signals that others can't.

People are different. Some people like to follow the same routine and be very stoic and are content with that. Others would rather explore and experience variety and new things and ride the peaks & troughs. Both have advantages & disadvantages.

This. If you're getting below-market salary (market salary minus some delta), plus substantial equity, this is economically equivalent to getting paid a market salary and then investing delta dollars into the startup. Where delta is likely thousands (or tens of thousands) of dollars per year, and a substantial portion of your income.

Obviously, you should understand exactly what you're getting when talking about such large amounts of money. Which means understanding both the total EV of the business (how big it will be on a success that allows you to cash out, times the probability that will happen) and the cap structure (because you also have to multiply by the percentage that you own).
Stricter capital controls are only one (arguably less important) side of the equation, with weak aggregate demand being the other.
Part of the problem is Tesla's "autopilot" isn't designed to be fully automatic. It's a diver's assistance package. As a comment in the Facebook thread mentioned, I too wonder if the problem is partial-autopilot in general. People will tend to put their trust in the system if it appears to be automatic. We probably shouldn't be shipping partial autopilot at all. Fully automatic or bust.

Crash? That was an accident, and it was definitely the auto-pilot's fault, but to me that looks like a fender-bender. Let's resist the media's attempt to use more extreme wording to sell stories.

Yes, I know the driver prevented it from being worse, but that's one of the conditions Tesla's auto-pilot is supposed to be working under, a driver paying attention. There are problems with this model, but that doesn't mean we should ignore what actually happened in lieu of what could have happened when making a title.
I dont understand, the ML systems he designs are not deterministic by design! He's been letting that stuff fly (literally) for over a decade now[1]!

Not wrestling specifically, but you certainly wouldn't be the first to feel a sort of alienation from... I don't know: call it physicality. There's a general sort of malaise you can see present in the US at least, it's why (or possibly because of) we see so much shit marketed to us via faux authenticity. Maybe it's just a perspective thing but I really think theirs a growing number of people developing a kind of knee jerk agrarian-utiopianist streak. I don't know what to recommend as far as further reading but it's certainly a concept that has been explored.
Last year, I attended a colloquium from a scientist from the army weapons' division specifically about this (filaments). He kept extolling the career opportunities available at his lab...doing weapons research.

Yes the link should be replaced with yours.

I believe that the autopilot that you have to override in critical moment is worse than the driving assistance that doesn't turn on until it's critical.

In the former case, if you turn on the autopilot that you know is not just keeping the speed constant, you will tend not to be fully concentrated on the road all the time. And you'll surely seldom be able to estimate when the autopilot will work and when it won't.

In the later case, you must remain aware of the situation and you are "in the loop" for the common cases, but if there's something you estimated wrong the clever radars, lidars and computers have the chance to react better than you are able.

I haven't done any work on 65C816. Just 6502 so far.

It should be possible to make a 'CPU module' for the decompiler which takes into account the features of the 65C816 (such as 16-bit registers).
She wrote, "Retrospection involved re-categorizing things that happened to me and re-evaluating past actions and decisions, which led me to feel ashamed, slighted, or self-pitying (I became a feminist during the time I was logging, and I reacted strongly to injustices that I became aware of)."

So becoming a feminist literally made her cry.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the spectrum, the happiest demographic in America is conservative married women.

Why are progressive politics are such an engine of grief? Why is a belief system that creates a feeling of persecution where none existed before so popular? It's an interesting question to which I have no easy answer.

I think Valve is trying to create an open platform for VR, so at least you could use Vive or some other device (probably not Oculus, though) that works with Steam VR games. It also makes no sense for Valve to allow anyone else that doesn't abide by those standards to use the Steam store (including Oculus).
I am taking that long bet. I am a Twilio system integrator and have been a super fan for almost 5 years. I believe they will become that gorilla. In their growth strategy from the S1 their goal is to expand focus on the enterprise which from where I sit is going to be the way they turn into that gorilla.

As they move into that enterprise market their competition is not the telcom API providers https://www.quora.com/Who-are-Twilios-competitors It will be the large monolithic (on prem or in cloud) products like Genesys, Aspect, Avaya, Cisco, etc which represents a huge market.

If you believe the logical market trends they lay out, and I do, that:
- agility in the way software is developed and deployed (the move towards continuous integration) drives innovation
- the availability of services like Twilio that provide easy to integrate building blocks of functionality make it easier to build
- building rather than buying can allow enterprises to differentiate service

Then you can see how Twilio will start eating into that $45B market while staying way out in front of those other telcom API providers who may see the same trends. Going public with all the scrutiny that comes with it I am sure is part of that strategy. Even if the big guys start buying the smaller API providers as Cisco did with Tropo they are not going to cannibalize their existing monolithic communication business.

So I believe if Twilio can help drive those trends specifically in the communication software space then I believe they will win big. Just like AWS started selling a means to provision and scale servers out quickly but today sell a whole suite of tools to transform the way infrastructure is managed and software is deployed Twilio will go from automating calls and sms to transforming how enterprise build and deploy software to communicate with customers.

Love that the founder believes that because technologists founded the company and a movie character used something similar, they are not a troll.

They list some companies that have licensed their software, but did they actually license software or just settle the IP claim?

Before that, even tear-jerker news stories didn't affect me; now, I get choked up over anything (but especially over hopeful science news stories - the Philae lander, possible breakthroughs in solar power, that kind of thing).

My wife makes fun of me for it too, but then I make fun of her for lots of stuff, so that's fair.

> This is no different from a typical math paper

It's substantially different from a typical math paper.

First because programs are typically much larger than even large mathematical proofs (more on this below).

Second, because even after you trust the program, you then still have have to run the program to make sure the paper's result is correct. Far better to run the program once and then produce something you can check quickly than to require every peer reviewer to buy hundreds/thousands of dollars of compute time. Think P vs. NP: why force the reviewer to solve an NP problem when you can just as easily hand them a P problem.

> Proofs can have "bugs", too

But the reviewer's bug checking obligation is typically isolated to the paper at hand; i.e., the reviewer doesn't have to worry about the correctness of cited papers -- it's assumed those results are correct. By contrast, software implementations -- even for purely mathematical code -- often contain tens of thousands of lines of implicitly trusted code [1].

Reviewers therefore (rightly!) say of ad hoc programs submitted as a portion of a proof: "sorry, I can't possibly know whether there are any important bugs in these tens of thousands of lines of code upon when you depend".

As a result, the SAT and theorem proving communities have developed highly trustworthy proof checkers so that the portion of code the reviewer has to trust can be meaningfully peer reviewed (and, more-over, peer reviewed apart from any particular theorem).

[1] This is true even if you don't include things like the underlying operating system. Standard libraries, mathematics packages, compiler implementations, solver implementations, specialized software packages for the application domain, etc. etc. Some of this software a reasonable person will trust, but some of it really isn't interrogated well enough for the purpose of mathematical proof... and even just sorting out what's trustworthy and what's not can take a significant amount of time.
You can say that about blacks (esp males): they're more risky. Just because you're not supposed to look at those actuarial tables, doesn't mean it's not a statistical reality.
Within bounds of statistical variance, this is an interesting idea. I'm thinking of small sample sizes and the negatives of publicly posting an algorithmicly-derived statement of, effectively, racism. And do we normalize against those factors being transparent to renters? (If I reject an applicant with no photo who happens to be black, does that "count"?)

But if you get it right, is there any legitimate explanation for why statistical differences would exist? Or do you baseline against the entire AirBNB population (which may be biased in of itself)?
Since everyone is talking about their crying habits - I have this very annoying tendency to get teary eyed/cry when having intense discussions with some people. Especially if there's any hint of negativity in it. Awkward for obvoius reasons. So I just tend to avoid these.
From whatever I have seen over the years (including the present moment), Facebook is light years behind Google in searching for stuff and getting all the relevant results within Facebook. I can't help but be very amused at the thought of Facebook being able to search the web well. :)

To me (and my searches on Facebook) it has always appeared that Facebook search is a crippled and neglected product. It's so bad that I save important information I see on Facebook elsewhere. Facebook is the place for the ephemeral and constantly "new" stream of stuff to keep people clicking. So it doesn't seem to have had any good reason to put competent people in search related development so far.

I don't think I could've put this any better myself; I'm also a DK1 backer that got CV1 for free.

Most of my friends who did the same sold their CV1 when the hype was high for a profit and went on to purchase the Vive. I live in an NYC apartment, so I don't really have the room to spare for the Vive, but prior to the free CV1 announcement, I planned to purchase a Vive.

After experiencing DK1, you really got a good idea of what VR at that price point was capable of. Sure, the resolution and comfort will improve slightly, but it was a good calibration of expectations for the market. I just hope there comes more and more interesting software to actually drive the industry, because currently it's looking like another 90s VR cycle.
In elementary school I was thought to draw in roundhand variant. The problem I had felt for years was that I could either draw fast or readable, but never both. So a number of years ago I set out to consciously change my writing style. I decided 2 requirements: letter shapes had to be as simple as possible, preferably a single stroke, but still distinguishable (eg. u, v, r can look similar in a rush). In the end I tried to distill as pure and simple a style I could and it turns out my letter forms are near identical to Dijkstra's. This makes me wonder whether he was taught this handwriting or went through the same thought process, knowing his inclinations I would not be surprised if he did.

I have an assisted driving system in my Jeep. I'm pretty clear on its capabilities and, for example, stay alert to the possibility I have to hit the brakes when coming up on stopped traffic at freeway speeds because I'm outrunning its detection range for it to do so safely automatically.

The problem is Tesla selling a system with similar limitations as "autopilot." It's not. It's an assisted driving system, albeit a very smart one, and they need to make it more clear that's what it is. They're setting incorrect expectations, and the various "I climbed into my passenger seat while it drives!" bits aren't helping.

Basically we're living the old urban legend of the dude putting on cruise control and then crawling into his camper for a nap. The cruise control is a little bit smarter nowadays, but it comes down to a gross misunderstanding that Tesla is (inadvertently) encouraging.
Tesla is innovating rapidly in the Autonomous driving space AND releasing those inventions to the customer, which is great.

Typically these things used to take 5-7years to "trickle down" where a reasonably-priced car (not that $80k is reasonable) might have these available for end users.

However Tesla absolutely NEEDS to do more to prevent this technology push model that they have from tainting the whole Autonomous Driving trend. Expecting that a Driver will read the f'ing manual about

"....Traffic-aware cruise control may not brake/decelerate for stationary vehicles, especially in situations when you are driving over 50 mph (80 km/h) ....Depending on TrafficAware Cruise Control to avoid a collision can result in serious injury or death."

is insane.

My suggestion: Enforce a must watch video tutorial with questions (such as is common for say a driving test) before enabling the Partial AutoDrive. It really is a matter of Life or Death - you have a very short time to react on the road. With their distribution model Tesla definately has the resources to pull this off, and might serve as a model for the rest of the industry.
Some time later I received a letter with a list of 20 or so charges including things like Identity Theft and the possibility that I may be expelled.

The difference is when a plane's autopilot goes wonky you typically have minutes to realize it and take over manually. In a car you often have less than a second. Pilots also are highly trained and rehearse emergencies. Drivers put on makeup.

Anything less than a truly 100% autonomous car autopilot is 1 massive lawsuit away from failure.
