Why bother, err on the side of caution with pedestrians. The driver is already benefiting from auto pilot, a minor delay due to safety of other road users would be acceptable to most.
I disagree. Joel Olsteen, Alex Jones, and countless others have staked their claim on many populations by having a high status in certain people's minds. Many families in the U.S. take these talking heads as gospel, relying on talking heads to decide for them what is true. YouTube has niche talking heads that thrive based on their patreon accounts as they put taking head vids on YouTube. It's why we keep getting more talking heads of all affiliations; people respect them and hold them in high regard.

> What's weird is the period we're entering, where the technology is becoming more and more capable, but we're still a very long ways away from full auto. Yet the hype machine says it's just around the corner.

I think it would be worthwhile to figure out how to shut down the hype machine, or at least tune it down a few notches. Dreams and visions are fine, but every time I switch the current tab from HN to Facebook, I get to see overhyped bullshit predictions about AI, nanotech, self-driving cars, etc. being just about the corner, as evidenced by whatever misinterpreted paper or video news sites could find that day. And the non-tech crowd is totally buying that. Not just regular folks, but also investors and politicians and all the other people who then end up causing resources to be wasted because they buy into the bullshit.
My guess? Elon.
Good to know. Wikipedia has a nice explanation of the concept:

> Working mass, also referred to as reaction mass, is a mass against which a system operates in order to produce acceleration. In the case of a rocket, for example, the reaction mass is the fuel shot backwards to provide propulsion. All acceleration requires an exchange of momentum, which can be thought of as the "unit of movement". Momentum is related to mass and velocity, as given by the formula P = mv, where P is the momentum, m the mass, and v the velocity. The velocity of a body is easily changeable, but in most cases the mass is not, which makes it important.
I think Elon Musk had a lot to do with the video, I imagine the music was his choice. Very few other people could suggest this tune due to its previous comedic use.

"I used a racial slur as the search term because I thought of it as the strongest evidence that a tweet might contain racist harassment. I restricted the sample to users who had a history of using offensive language, and I only included subjects who appeared to be a white man or who were anonymous."

Right, because white men are the only people are the only ones who can be racist. If you have to rely on a criterion like this, that's a very good sign that the method you use is not objective.

Besides that, I really like the reply the author chose, the message and its phrasing seem very effective, while staying respectful towards the tweeter.
With HN lately it is a coin toss whether a statement will be downvoted or upvoted when talking about diversity. It seems that there is split - depends on who is awake what the reaction will be.

Anyway - I never did or intend to do karma whoring. While I tend to rarely post pure troll statements, I do hold views that can be controversial. So when I have something to say I say it.

I believe allowing these people on your community site gives them the space they need to become more extreme and radical. The standard you walk past is the standard you accept, and it's always struck me as very convenient that Reddit's minimal censorship policy magically aligns with minimisation of operating costs.

Not OP but think about the window object in the browser. In a client-side only JS application, you can assume that window will always exist. In a server-side PHP application, you never have to worry about interacting with window. In a SSR React application, you have to manage that complexity of window existing sometimes and it not existing other times if you want to share components between the client and the server.
Interestingly, it behaved just like a young learner-driver would - play it safe, be cautious, and give extra space to the joggers because a new driver is a little uncertain about controlling a 6,000 lbs hunk of moving steel so close to delicate humans.

It's astounding to realize the AI will learn and change it's habits, just like a young human driver learning.

Every single "Why we switched from Node.js to Go" article I've ever read is rooted in misunderstanding of Node.js - This one is no exception. The problem was that the codebase was bloated and probably time to scale up or scale out. I bet that if an experienced Node.js developer rewrote the entire service again in Node, you would also get 2x speedup.

I can't believe the CTO of digg bought this but I guess ultimately, it's also about making engineers happy.

Eventually Go will also reach a point where it will start lagging and then some smart engineer will conclude that you need to switch to C++! Why can't developers just admit that they don't know how to scale a service?! It's not the language that's the problem, it's you; it's always you!
Of course. Your engineers have workstations with 64GB of RAM. So obviously none of your customers are using your software on tablets or chromebooks or the 8-year-old hand-me-down vista-era PC that the IT department decided was all they could spare.

And of course your software is the only thing they have to use that computer for, so it's perfectly fine to consume every last scrap of resources it has.

I miss the 2004-era web, where the most resource-consuming webpage was the one where some idiot posted a dozen thumbnail-size images but forgot to actually thumbnail his camera's enormous 2MP images.
> 'News sites' - by and large - are pretty good. Most stories on CNN and Fox are not biased. Go ahead to their web-sites - it's mostly boring stuff.

Except the ones that you happen to have first-hand knowledge about, or are withing your domain of expertise. Those particular stories are full of bullshit, but the rest are surely honest-to-God truth.

Look up the rules for `.ltd.uk` :).

Also, for that matter, .plc.uk, .ac.uk, .sch.uk, .nhs.uk, .police.uk and .gov.uk. All of them are available only to organisations that already exist in a particular context, and only with their 'real' name.

That doesn't prevent some collisions around characters that are legal in business names but not in DNS, of course, and it also doesn't mean that anyone actually uses the .ltd.uk and .plc.uk domains: I don't think I've actually ever seen one in the wild. I've seen all the others, though.

User: "Cancel my account, I'm switching to my local internet provider as they provide free Netflix."

The solution to this problem is to encourage small local internet providers to pop up and provide much needed competition.
I think the choice of music is quite clever, makes it seem jolly and approachable, instead of the connotations of solemn futurism that self-driving usually has.
Absolute rubbish. Let companies make their plans however they want. I cannot see a single benefit coming from this ban. More bureaucracy, less options, and nobody benefits.
It's inconveniencing other drivers on the road and much more importantly this erratic stopping from a human perspective might make it more likely to cause an accident. Granted the accident would legally be the meat driven car's fault who bumps into the suddenly stopped Tesla. It would still be nice to play well with human drivers who don't have the luxury of relaxing in a self driving car.

You can't 'open source' more land. Whomever controls the natural resources will control how they're used.
Precisely this. I don't understand why it's so hard to internalize for most people. Maybe because they feel they have to believe someone, so they don't have a choice but to accept the news as true?

Hint: you don't. Life does not get any worse if you don't stay up to date with the news. This is junk information, at best it will poison your holistic understanding of the world. And most of it doesn't matter. I think one's better off reading a book instead. Or if you really need to follow news, stick to discussions on topical subreddits or HN - there at least you'll get people who don't have a strong incentive lie, and quite often you'll actually find comments by people with first-hand knowledge on the subject.

logic of the month club

You make it sound as if theorists were
inventing logics frivolously.

We have known since the stone age (of computing) that we can reason
about any computation using e.g. ZFC set theory, since we can
formalise the operational semantics of any computation in ZFC. The
problem is that general purpose logics like ZFC are extremely
inefficient (in the sense of having too large a proof search
space). For example ZFC allows you to reason about statements like: 4
\in squareroot(3). But such questions are meaningless in reasoning
about programs. ZFC is too expressive. What all the work on program
logics is about is to find logics that are 'more efficient'. That means they should be

(1) Expressive enough to enable reasoning about program propertise
that we care about.

(2) Make the proof search space as small as possible.

(3) Make specification and reasoning convenient (for computer or
programmer).

All the logics you mention make some progress towards these
goals. Nominal logic for example makes reasoning about programs with
binders more efficient. Separation logic makes reasoning about
stateful computation more efficient. Type theories are progress
towards integrating programming, specification and proving (whether
that's desirable or not is a contentious question). The LCF approach gave use the currently dominant interactive theorem prover architecture. Linear logic has been the single most influential idea in the last 3 decades in the design of typing systems, especially for concurrent systems.

The title (and quite probably the article) confuses a democratic process used in elections, which is sensible and fair, with pure unlimited democracy (wherein a majority can order up anything, ranging from murder to "free" teddy bears, so long as 50% + some epsilon decide to vote for it.)
Which is an homage to Benny Hill.
I cannot help it but see this as a socialist opinion piece.

Clearly, without the
introduction of a major tax on robots as capital
equipment, robot-based manufacturing cannot
boost the fiscal revenues needed to finance
both social transfers, to support workers made
redundant by robots, and minimum wages, to
stem a decline in the living standards of low-
skilled and medium-skilled workers.

If robots do the work AND there is a functioning market, this will have two effects:

- substitution of low-skilled labor

- cheaper prices across the board

People most often forget the second item and ask for transfers as if people were automatically entitled because socialism. But they will get their share via the second item.

Also, work is infinite because human needs are infinite. Maybe servants in households become more popular again, who knows? If work weren't infinite we would all be unemployed already, according to the theories of 19th century economists. Yet here we are, working, and repeating the same mistake.

Another argument is that in the worst case we can just destroy all robots (and factories and wheels while we're at it), let's find out if we're better off after that or worse.

Finally, the current economic mainstream calls out "deflation" as the biggest threat to the economy, yet it is deflation that will increase real wages automagically. Of course, highly indebted entities (such as your government) will want you to believe otherwise so they claim that everything grinds to a halt if we just have negative inflation for a few months. Also, Central Banks would lose their justification if deflation is discovered to be not as bad as claimed.
I don't really buy this paranoid viewpoint. If "they" were trying to use information from surveillance to blackmail people into doing what "they" wanted, considering the scale of these programs I find it hard to believe that they would not have tripped over someone who is either functionally unblackmailable or who is willing to take the hit for the greater good. Furthermore, at some point it becomes very difficult to not trace leaks of such information back to government surveillance programs and entities, so every execution of a blackmail threat poses a serious risk to the blackmailers It works against key people when used occasionally, but it can't be used at scale without someone figuring out what is going on.
I'm not a node expert, but here is what seems like the crux of the problem:

> Consequently, when any request timeouts happened, the event and its associated callback was put on an already overloaded message queue. While the timeout event might occur at 1 second, the callback wasn’t getting processed until all other messages currently on the queue, and their corresponding callback code, were finished executing (potentially seconds later).

Seems pretty specific to node, no? I mean, just looking at what the article says (again, I'm not a Node or Go expert) it seems like this problem was directly alleviated by Go and the speedup wasn't because Go is closer to the metal, but ultimately had a different method of handling many async network calls.
I see a lot of comments suggesting FastMail and other email service providers with custom domains. Can someone explain how FastMail differs from Microsoft Office 365 Plans like Business Premium which allows custom domains and exchange because to me Microsoft seems to be the better option with Office suite and OneDrive storage.
