But "one big" vs "wannabe" is the defining characteristic of a government. The reason that Somalia is universally considered a failed state is precisely because it has many smaller wannabe governments fighting each other rather than one big government maintaining order.

And that is precisely my point: people think of freedom as a scalar, as the absence of constraints on their personal decision-making. But this is wrong. Your decisions are always constrained, if not by "government" (however you choose to define it) then by your fellow humans. And if not by your fellow humans (e.g. if you go live in the middle of Nunavut) then by the laws of physics.

"It's madness to think that somehow problems with overregulation and monopolies are going to be solved by increasing regulation and monopolies."

this is exactly how most people think.

i would rather say that it is madness to think that government will get into drug manufacturing (or manufacturing of anything for that matter) rather than quietly collect donations from interested parties in exchange for a signature.
It's nice that you were able to do that, but I'd say the majority of bullied people either aren't strong enough to do that (physically), or the bullying isn't of a physical nature anyway.

It'll be for sure interesting to see how this plays out, especially with other human aggressive drivers. If people know they can always cut off the robot car which annoyingly drives the speed limit everywhere, takes turns super slowly, and optimizes itself to stay in the car pool lane, I'd hate to be riding in one. I'm not sure how many people currently mess with the Google cars but I'm sure it's more than zero. "Hey, wouldn't it be fun to see what happens when I just sorta...drift over the line into the stupid robot car's lane?"

There will be mistakes. People will die at the hands of self-driving cars. There will be backlash. There will be people who "hunt" autonomous vehicles (look at drones, and consider how much people value airspace vs driving etiquette). GLHF.

What I don't understand is why there's such a double standard between children and adults when it comes to this sort of behavior.

If someone attacks me as an adult, I have every right to defend myself. The police will be called, and if it's possible to identify the perpetrator and prove beyond a reasonable doubt that they attacked me, they will go to jail. If the police aren't able to find the attacker or prove that they did it, then I'm allowed to take countermeasures such as avoiding the area, carrying some sort of defensive measures (pepper spray, or even just a gun), or having someone escort me.

Do the same thing to a child, and there's often minimal punishment, the victim and perpetrator are not separated from each other in the long term, and the victim is strongly encouraged not to fight back.

Can you imagine telling a victim of a mugging (or worse) to "just ignore them" the next time it happens?

We create these Lord of the Flies type situations for children, then basically tell them that problems shouldn't be happening, if they are then we won't help, but the children shouldn't do anything about them either. And then we are shocked, shocked, when children suddenly go all psycho on their tormentors.

If a business had a constant known problem with physical violence among its employees and patrons, they'd be forced to reform or shut down, and people would go to prison. Schools should be the same. It's the responsibility of the people in charge to keep the students safe, both from outside threats and from each other. If they can't do that, then they need to be replaced by people who can.

Until and unless that ever happens, then students' best option will be to retaliate.
A go playing machine certainly has to have some equivalent representation of "piece", "move", "capture", etc. These concepts have meaning within the context of Go as a set of valid board states and transitions.

This isn't for the 'being pushed around' kind of physical bullying, it's essentially for social matchmaking. I'd argue that excluding a certain person from one's social circle isn't (and shouldn't be counted as) bullying -- I'm not sure whether it is or isn't -- but social exclusion from multiple disparate groups will manifest as being ostracized, and that's the problem this is trying to solve.

I applaud the good intentions but social networks (in the traditional sociology sense) in schools will transcend real-life/online boundaries and service boundaries, so school-age people's friends on Snapchat are largely the same as their friends in the classroom and lunchroom, and vice versa.

The only potential I see here is the a discreet 'lowkey' way of broadcasting good intentions that a particular person is friendly, but this relies on that person's intentions being authentic; which is an unsolved problem.
Yeah, I read a fair bit of their docs before I happened across it. I feel like they should make that comparison more prominent. Even knowing it was in there, I had a little trouble finding it again.

Simply setting breakpoints and watching variables is nice, but I can do basically the same thing by echoing/console.log'ing things. If you are going to go to the effort of making a debugger, then make it do something I can't do another way.
This chilling effect has a counterpart which would be directly amplified by pardoning Snowden.

In short, if Snowden gets pardoned, it will encourage further people to leak confidential documents and violate the Espionage act since they will be emboldened by the thought they might get pardoned down the road.
I just asked a few people on the "supporters" list who said they had "nothing to do with it", after trying to figure out more about it's core and see if I could get added to the list myself (my opinions on the NSA dragnet crap are well documented, I do not live in fear of them: http://blog.neocities.org/making-the-web-fun-again.html).

I'm starting to think they just got a list of people they believed might support this petition drive, and then added them to the site as "supporters".

Saying they are "supporters" of this drive is misleading. They should change the copy to say "these are some people that also support pardoning Ed Snowden".

At this point I would be extremely hesitant to donate money to this group until its foundational structure gets clarified.

It was this HN comment that prompted me to read it, fascinating book. The topic of the post, Boltzmann brain, is also well worth reading into.
Another misconception here is the lack of understanding of engines' speculative loading capabilities. It's very easy for an engine to notice `await import('./foo.js')` or even `await fetch('./foo.json')` during the tokenization phase, and realize it might be a good idea to go fetch that file (and in the former case, all of its dependencies). This is already done for HTML's tokenization phase (with img, iframe, etc.), and would of course make sense for JS as well.
My point was that some core values of democracy (equality and justice) are incorrectly perceived as 'socialist' in current American linguistic usage. If this were corrected, it is much more likely that American's would support a more democratic, Norwegian governance model.

Ask HN: What's up with Starfighter?
I'm asking this because I first read about this in HN as it is a startup from famous users here, and I can't find any information on the actual site. I haven't seen a discussion of if in HN that I know of...

Levels have been down and "Server status: overwhelmed" for more than a week, if I'm not mistaken. Inside the user area, it says: "(Status: down temporarily -- if you're seeing this message, our players have hugged us to death. Come back after we've kicked processes and/or spawned new boxes.)"

Nothing seems off in the front page, and when logging in, the "State of Starfighter" last entry seems from May the 13th.

Has this project just been left to die or what?

We have a rather family friendly attitude at work so the norms are probably a little different. There is no way to know ahead of time if someone is in the hospital. Now someone is stilling there holding the phone and looking at it, taking an extra ~15 seconds to respond is not a big deal. Now, if someone is going to respond in depth the expectation is they will leave.

Also, there are more and less formal meetings, but in a technical meeting checking some point online with a laptop or phone occurs on a regular basis. It seems much more productive than having people just say random things that don't match up with reality.
I've pretty much stopped reading articles entirely. I'd rather click through to the study, read the abstract, then skim through looking for anything interesting or obviously wrong.

So correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to maintain a web socket 'mesh' that it proxies all inter-service communication through. So whenever you need to speak to another service, you don't need to worry about the extra cost of creation/teardown of a new web socket. It also says that it handles automatic retries, global rate limiting (https://lyft.github.io/envoy/docs/intro/what_is_envoy.html).

Because all inter-service requests are going through Envoy, it is really easy to keep incredibly detailed stats about network health, request success rate & more.

Envoy performing the task of load balancing does not defeat the purpose, because it provides extremely detailed stats for ALL THE THINGS, they reported it helped them find problems much quicker, instead of checking service code, EC2 networking, or the ELB. Essentially by creating a supersolution with better stats reporting for all, troubleshooting seems like it would be easier.

Well, they certainly didn't under-sensor the thing. The big model Velodyne LIDAR, a small LIDAR looking upward, stereo cameras in all directions, and probably some radars.

The big rotating Velodyne thing has got to go. But so far, nobody who claims to have a suitable solid-state 3D LIDAR is actually shipping. Quanergy claimed a solid-state LIDAR suitable for automotive use [1][2] and showed it at CES, but never shipped. Their web site hasn't been updated since 2015. They were aiming at a price point around $100.

Advanced Scientific Concepts has a suitable LIDAR that costs far too much. Space-X uses an ASC unit on the Dragon capsule for docking. ASC announced they were getting into automotive in 2012 but never shipped.[3]

Somebody is going to do this soon. The technology works. It's a cost problem. Once the cost comes down, cars can have multiple LIDARs (at least fore and aft) near the top of the windshield and rear window. This gets rid of all that topside gear.

I think that talking about having children x career/life/new skills is one of the hardest subject I can imagine.

You can easily speak about children to someone who has one (or some) around the house. But it's pointless, because the person knows how it is.

You can talk a lot with those who haven't, but they'll barely understand what you're talking about, because it's almost impossible to explain how you learn to see with fresh new eyes, and to have fun playing, and that every day is a new kind of development and negotiations and so on...

P.s.: not talking about parents-to-parents kind of conversation.

I wouldn't say Boeing bet on P2P, more that they bet on flexibility and fuel efficiency. You can always fly two smaller planes on a really busy route but every flight of a 600-seater 1/3 full loses you a huge amount of money. That applies whether you're doing hub-and-spoke or mostly direct routes. Using carbon fiber and mostly electrical systems reduces weight which has a huge fuel savings over the life of the aircraft.

Of course Boeing also bet that they could bust their union* to goose profits (jury is still out on that) and outsource manufacturing (massive failure). The 787 was almost a disaster because of it. They had to go buy out a number of their suppliers and bring other work back in-house.

Just about the only bright spot is their partnership with Japanese companies. That's why Japanese airlines massively prefer Boeing planes and is a strategic effort on Boeing's part. (It's also why Japan took the battery failures so seriously: the batteries were made in Japan). If I had to guess, this is also a strategy Apple uses and part of the reason they buy Sony camera sensors and helped Foxconn invest in Sharp's display production.

* This one irks me because they're in an effective dualopoly with Airbus and profitable. It isn't a Detroit situation where the union was imposing massive inefficiencies on the business. It's purely an attempt to screw the lower-level employees. People wonder why incomes have been stagnant for so long... The richer you are the more money permanently joins the capital class vs circulating in the economy as spending. The more money accumulates at the top, the more excess capital and weak spending you'll have.
