It seems Spreedy is the solution I'm talking about. I can't say with absolute certainty. Their website says it uses api.stripe.com, which is great. Basically, any code that passes directly to Stripe's API instead of to Stripe.JS/Checkout.

If you strip away the "buyer's" IP then a lot of their ability to detect fraudulent transactions goes away. They still have account based limits and other methods, but my personal opinion is the anecdotal increase in difficulty of creating fraudulent Stripe accounts is due to Radar based detection.
Until it's tested in court, the legality of that restriction is highly questionable. (Which is not to say that you can ignore it with impunity. If you don't have the money for a multi-year lawsuit against a billionaire, you might not want to violate it.)

Presuming that such "EULAs for cars" are not legally binding, the next step will be cars that simply will not do the "forbidden" action, because their software detects and prevents it. Thence comes the next round of lawsuits...

Autopilot is the correct term. I'm tired of always having to cater to the lowest common denominator.

Ask 99 out of 100 people who aren't pilots, but who might be Tesla customers, and see if they can recite what you wrote below:

While on autopilot you are still expected to be monitoring the flight and take control at a moments notice. Autopilot does not allow the pilot to take a nap or go in the back and party with the flight attendants.

And how do you know all that? Because you were trained accordingly.

I'm not saying Tesla shouldn't offer the feature in their cars. I'm saying they shouldn't have named it after a feature that people think allows pilots to party with the flight attendants.
I'm tempted to say you have the wrong idea about developers' relations to their editors, but then, you probably have the wrong idea about girlfriends. I mean, you are objectifying girlfriends. Anyway cli programs could just as well run in the browser, etc.
> The old models actually had pretty weak sensors which indirectly caused the death of that one guy who used autopilot and t-boned a trailer.

Saying it was the sensors that caused the guys death is like saying it was the powerstation that generated the electricity that ran the car causing his death.

He was told, repeatedly, to keep his hands on the steering wheel and to watch the surrounding environment. He even apparently understood the limitations of the system, having recorded a number of scenarios (many of which are situations where AP shouldn't have been engaged anyway) where the car's ability to handle the situation was marginal at best.

So, him deciding to (apparently) watch a video on a tablet while driving down a public highway isn't really the fault of the AP system.

... and perhaps legal liability for you, if it's involved in a crash or a passenger injury.
The current system is asymmetric. If US can extradite people from other countries for something they do on the Internet, why Russia, China or Iran cannot? US is showing a bad example here. Once some governments get more power they will want to do this too. This is actually a display of power by US.

Maybe there should be some international agreements on how to deal with such cross-border crimes but they should be discussed and agreed upon by many countries.

And I don't like this anyway. I would rather prefer having american or russian systems disconnected from other countries than extraditing people into a foreign country to judge them by foreign laws.
Especially considering that the pilot has been trained to react to an autopilot failure, while a driver hasn't been.

There is just no excuse for using that particular term for this particular technology.
Is that a royal we?
Closely related to what you wrote, it will also be about verifying the hardware itself, independently of any software models.

New hardware needs hours in the field, to verify failure rates and performance under real world conditions. Early deployment means Tesla's hardware will be ready for full service as soon as software is available. Autonomous driving then becomes "just a software problem", with hardware eliminated as a variable.

Yes, of course. I should have said "support" instead of "vote for."
>this really comes off as "look over there" move to distract from the recent negative press as various government bodies take Tesla to task for not only the lack of performance with the current system but also its ridiculous name.

So you mean there is no advanced hardware in the new cars?
Nope. Doesn't work on Windows 7 running Chrome, nor I expect on many other system/browser combos.
AlphaBay. It had a 200+ page thread on Stripe and methods for creating Stripe accounts to process fraudulent payments. I feel confident saying this time 1 year ago they were easily pushing 500k-1m USD in transactions a month. There were several users who posted screen shots of single accounts reaching 50k-180k.

Threads deleted, but only to stop newbies and methods from leaking out to public readers like myself.
We worked through about 1/3 of the material starting one summer term (where we started on TAOCP) and finishing sometime in the fall. Definitely hard, but it also helped me finally understand a lot of math that I "knew" but hadn't yet grokked.

Buy buying this car you actually hailing it from Tesla.
And while the name is perhaps misleading to the xommon layperson, your comment of "it is not in fact an autopilot" is flat out wrong. Instead perhaps "it is in fact an autopilot, but you don't know what an autopilot is or how it should be used"

Repairing is one part, but the software "upgrades" are also responsible for this. I have a 3-4 years old iPad. It's in perfect condition. No hardware problems at all and very minimal scratches. I take good care of it.

But Apple keeps forcing me to update iOS to newer and newer versions. Also, the apps stop supporting the older OS. But upgrading it causes it to slow down. New iOS and app version seems to be bloated more and more. Even simple web-browsing is slow which used to be fine before the updates.

I'm sticking to it for now, but it's slowly getting unusable and might end up in e-waste before its time.
'Regular cars' look like they do because of design limitations imposed by things like fuel tanks, engines, and gearboxes.
Prime example is MaxMind's minFraud. How long do you think it took for someone to pay $500 and test their card details + billing information + shipping information + sock5/rdp before submitting payment on a MaxMind "protected" webstore?

MaxMind isn't a black box either. You can pay 0.03 USD to get the full break down of scores on an inquiry. You can register and get an ID number to token your fraudulent VM/RDP with the card before submitting a real payment. That partially helps defeat their device tracking [1].

It's different because the self-driving doesn't entirely happen within the vehicle. Tesla maintains a road database to base driving decisions off of and it's assumed you obtain that information from the network.

> Initially, the vehicle fleet will take no action except to note the position of road signs, bridges and other stationary objects, mapping the world according to radar. The car computer will then silently compare when it would have braked to the driver action and upload that to the Tesla database. If several cars drive safely past a given radar object, whether Autopilot is turned on or off, then that object is added to the geocoded whitelist.

So, you will likely be accessing a service to use the self-driving features. At that point, I think it's technically within Tesla's rights to dictate how that service is used.

Consider 3 doors: A, B, C. If you pick the right one you win the prize. Say you pick door A. Monty Hall opens B or C and reveals that there's nothing behind. Now he asks if you want to stay with A or switch to the closed door. What should you do to maximize your chances of winning?

Right before any of the doors is opened we have no idea what to expect, so there are 3 equaly likely possibilities:

1. prize is behind A 2. prize is behind B 3. prize is behind C.

In case (1) you win by staying with your choice of A. In case (2) Monty Hall must open C (by the rules), so you'll win if you switch to B and in (3) the host will open B(by the rules) and you should switch to C.

In 2 cases out of 3 (2/3) you win by switching and in only one case out of 3 (1/3) you win by staying with your first choice. Since 2/3 > 1/3, you should switch.

This problem is easy if you know the defintions of sample space, event and the Equally Likely Probability Formula.
Thinking Google was screaming for more opportunities to acquire and test data. Had to be satisfied with a few cars and a small area shared with other companies. Tesla is making its own jackpot here.
OTOH, wouldn't it have been awesome if Opportunity had recorded the lander on descent? I'm not sure how much azimuth swivel the cameras have but maybe they could have parked it uphill pointing in the right direction...
Spaces always. I just always program vimrc or editor's config to auto insert a certain number of spaces divisible to some number like 2 or 4.

IMHO thought spaces were always recommended to ensure formatting is consistent across multiple environments so never read too much into the spaces vs tabs on SV TV show.

A lot of coding guidelines like Python recommend spaces.

Next on SV, Vim vs EMacs? ;)

He didn't say it around the water cooler; doesn't that make all the difference? He said it three years ago semi-publicly but away from work, deleted it years ago, and has put some plausible effort into moving away from the viewpoint people took offense with. In your world, we're not allowed to make political/social mistakes off the job 3 years ago, even if we change our mind afterward?!

> These employers have the same right to associate with whomever they choose... Making everyone work in close company with folks they aren't comfortable associating with.

I have to believe they interviewed him pretty well and liked him just fine the way he is today and in person. What evidence do you have that anyone he worked with was personally uncomfortable with him? It looks like what happened is, the mobs/journalists dug up reasons to hate his 3-years-ago Facebook persona, and Twitter exercised that "right" so they could save face.

Your average car driver gets a few weeks of training at age 15 or 16 and a cursory written test. What does a pilot get?
That's what it is.

It is creepy to be hyperaware of male socialization but then to be ok with women only gyms and yoga classes.

Most young men aren't interested in Church or the GAA (sporting organization) today, which leaves basically the pub, not a healthy environment in some cases, as the remaining place a male could make new friends.

Here I'll suggest something controversial (on HN) but obvious. I don't believe men have the same kind of friendships most women do. This is because for many woman in society they have a stronger connection to their family.

Friendships for men are something more, they require them in order to build cooperative things like companies.

The fact is that the majority of risky enterprises are created and led by men. I don't need to put in caveats as legally required in California /s, it is so and has been so for millennia.

Several famous entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley have said that the best people to start a company with, are people you have known for a long time beforehand. That can only mean a friend or close associate.

My question would be: Why on earth are we surprised at a decline in new business creation when the basic link that makes it work, friendship, has been under strain for decades?!
But new buyers weren't getting less than previous buyers, they just weren't getting everything at the time of purchase. That's actually pretty common.

This is a clear "temporary" downgrade of capabilities in exchange for a later payoff.

There are good stats classes and bad stats classes, just like there are good calculus classes and bad ones. When I was a student, we spend a full term learning integration techniques, with almost no class time devoted do learning what an integral actually is. The fundamental theorem of algebra was glossed over in a way that makes me think the lecturer didn't really understand it. Differential equations was a catalog of recipes, with almost no modeling and certainly no qualitative analysis. I got an A+ in the course but learned almost nothing from it.

Fortunately, I had a great professor in Calc III who more than made up for this.
Probably because people with experience know how to handle these things up front so that they don't occur. I've been writing C and C++ for a decade now and for the last 6 years or so i have had very few issues which stem from any of the things you mention.
Yup- there's the GM and Ford way which will take forever for all the bureaucratic reasons their lawyers will create- and then there's the Tesla way.
Why do you trust Tesla? In what ways are their interests aligned with yours?
MaxMind allows you to take into account shipping address and billing address. Their 'insights' service will also show you the estimate distance between IP & shipping/billing.

That said, it can also be defeated.
As does China, Russia, Israel, England, France, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and pretty much everyone else in the first world. What's your point? Comparing the actions of nation states to criminal enterprises, while fun, isn't really valid, especially when it comes to prosecution.
Yes. Words change meanings over time/society. Why are you debating etymology? Patronize no longer has a gendered meaning. You would ask a women whether or not she patronized a store, for instance.

If you're a small business owner, you'd equally thank a woman or a man for their patronage, or yell at them equally for them to stop patronizing your employees.

The issues with not being able to modify your own stuff is already really shitty, but its not something that the average Joe really can understand easily, and even less care about it.

But not being able to USE your car for some things? That just screams easy headlines and it's a reason I might not get a Tesla in the future.

Of the other 99 doors Monty tells you which 98 of them don't have the prize.

He now asks if you want to switch to the 99th door that he didn't cancel out.

Intuitively that seems to make much more sense to me.
> why Russia, China or Iran cannot?

But they can. They need preexisting extradition agreements and it's all good. And the system isn't asymmetric. By their nature extradition agreements are bilateral and therefore symmetric.

How has Russia handled extradition requests from the UK for Litvinenko's accused murderers? That strikes me as a display of power by Russia. Would you agree?

> Maybe there should be some international agreements on how to deal with such cross-border crimes but they should be discussed and agreed upon by many countries.

They're called bilateral extradition treaties. That's exactly what's being leveraged here.

And I would rather people not hack systems for financial gain. I'd also like daily rainbows and a unicorn to ride to and from work.
HA containers for us means smart orchestration tools. We did not want to lock ourselves into Docker-only infrastructure (even now rkt is a very compelling alternative), and wanted an orchestrator/scheduler that is focused entirely on that job. Outside of Swarm, Mesos & co appeared too intrusive, and Nomad is quite narrow in what it does. So we picked Kubernetes and are very happy with it.
