Are you sure you're viewing it with the sound in sync? There's no veering when I watch until well after the audible alarm. But if you look through the red car's tinted windows you do see the break lights of the cars in front - presumably it's that breaking action which the radar unit is picking up.
My take on this is the red car wished to switch lanes beforehand and was distracted by that, thus not reacting quickly enough to the breaking. The right indicator goes on and it slowly starts to move across just before impact (but not at a speed / timing which would indicate an effort to avoid impact)

I think it is cool that there is evidence for these two states in water. I don't think, however, that the biological relevance was made particularly clear. There is hardly any life on earth for which these temperatures (upwards of 45C) play a role, and consequently, any effect on proteins would be 'out of context' within which protein function was under selective pressure. Whether or not protein stability is affected by these transitions of water states could therefore be purely coincidental. Having said this, however, one could perhaps learn more about how water affects protein function in 'normal' temperature ranges by breaking function with the other water state (but I don't understand this well enough to think of a way how to do this).
It's puzzling to see people not knowing what to do with what are essentially free plastic bags. You can deflate them and use them like you would any other bag, keep them inflated and continue using them as cushions, etc. It's not like they take much space deflated anyway. Recycling is good, but reuse is even better.
HERE’S THE PUBLIC EVIDENCE RUSSIA HACKED THE DNC – IT’S Not ENOUGH
When Rust (or Swift or golang) gets ISO standardized we'll know that it's mature and left the "move fast and break things" phase. This won't happen, because it's still growing now, so it doesn't make sense to standardize. They might even always want to be able to move fast. I don't see golang ever being standardized.

The fact that someone says on HN "we're backwards compatible" doesn't quite offer the same level of trust as an ISO standard. Especially when there are some conflicting reports out there i.e. there are many super-awesome libraries that only work with nightly (I think it's called), because many of those maintainers are early adopters that love to try out new features.

Programming languages and libraries are building blocks, I don't want them to change under me in the middle of a project. This is why I dropped Swift, the 1.0 -> 2.0 migration was a very painful, and from what I hear recent major version changes aren't running smooth either.

Forgot to ask - what exactly are the evidences of possessing sefl-awareness? Which experiment has been accepted as a proof? How did they proved that an animal subject does not see a mere another animal, but exactly "that is me" or not just merely confused, like all these babies with ridiculous looking time experiments?
I drive one (C350e), and indeed it monitors traffic and brakes when another car in front does too. Now the question is: "does it really matter that the car can see through the car in front"? Because if the car is self-driving it will keep such a distance that it should be able to brake & stop safely if something happens in front of it. Meaning: the Tesla should still be able to come to a safe stop even if it only detected the nearest car was braking - just because of a -say 2 second- distance between the cars.
Why is it "almost undetectable to any antivirus software"? It hasn't been used in the wild therefore they haven't taken its signature? There's no sarcasm in my question, I genuinely want to know this.
> I think most programs are less latency sensitive than that.

Hardly, compared to anything that takes user input and aims at 60/120 FPS (where you inevitably end up bypassing GC if you can't force it to run when you want to).

https://www.quora.com/Is-Java-overtaking-C++-in-the-HFT-worl...

> One thing about HFT is that the speed of the language oddly doesn't matter much. You are talking about latencies of 20 milliseconds, and any language can do 20 milliseconds since CPU times are measured in nano-seconds rather than milisecond.

and

> If you are playing in the sub 10 microsecond range doing everything in C++ helps a lot. [..] A lot of high frequency strategies run in the 20-30 microsecond time frame. I think this is where a lot of diversity in terms of setup occurs.

and

> To lower execution costs, we need a low latency system that has good determinism in response times. You cant pause for hash table rebucketing or garbage collectors or the OS taking away your time slice or moving you to a diferent processor or whatever. There are guys who try this in Java, and spend most of their time trying to make Java work deterministically. Good luck

and

> If you are in ultra HFT then C++ is the only answer (besides custom hardware - FPGA & ASIC). You just can't afford garbage collector.
Yeah, quite damning and sloppy on his behalf...

> I always thought that checking the hardware requirements for any kind of PC gaming is something that's obvious to everyone. Especially considering the Intel chips not being able to run most of the modern things.

Reality check: a small, small minority of customers check PC game requirements before purchase. Considering Intel is the primary GPU of Apple's most popular computers I find it insane that one can claim Mac support but not support the majority of configurations in the past several years.

When I worked at retail, IT support and at Apple Care almost every single PC game issue a customer brought to me was for, you guessed it, them buying it without looking at the requirements and their PC not meeting the requirements.

Look at it from someone without a technical background (the majority of PC owners): they don't know what their system has, they don't know what many of the terms mean or what's better than another and they don't understand drivers. At all.

The PC games that required the least amount of support? They were the runs that could run on practically anything and, granted, running on something sub-optimal is going to not be as awesome but hey at least it runs. There are many game frameworks that support this type of graceful degradation. I would like to see more companies adopt this attitude so anyone can buy any PC game and expect it to at least run.

Completely agree, C++'s three year cadence is probably the fastest more conservative industries are willing to go.

And why should one invest time for such a low-level component in their toolkit every 6 months?! I want to build software and solve problems, not spend my time keeping up with programming languages and library updates.
Nah I'm not fussed nobody uses my library. I'm a lot more worried about not being able to find customers who are willng to pay.
At least with the original sensor suite, Teslas are not aware of cars behind them, except for within a couple feet with the ultrasonic sensors. There is no rear radar and the rear camera data is not processed.
Various reasons. Here's a technical one: a redirect gets you one more HTTP roundtrip (and perhaps one more TCP roundtrip, and/or one more HTTPS handshake, and/or one more DNS lookup). In other words: this is simple on server-side but slooooooow and brittle on client-side.

As for the scenario "couldn't the censor send a redirect?" - no. Unless the user trusts the censor's CA (Etilasat or eDellRoot comes to mind), the censor doesn't see inside the HTTPS tunnel, only that it exists to an IP address (looked up by a previous DNS request).
As a potentional user (having a FF OS mobile, for example) I never even learnt the name and I do not even know how to pronunce it correctly till today - seriously, the name was probably the most important reason why I do not have a mobile with the CM system on it, because it is hard to search for something you do not remember, to talk about it, etc. (I am not an English native speaker, not living in an English-speaking country.)

Never ask people what they identify as. The descent into self-parody is just one of those things. It's really curious to me that basic ideas, like the Efficient Markets Hypothesis, are still such hard nuts to crack.

"Private courts paid for by the applicants" - go read "Machineries of Freedom" by David D. Friedman. Catch the finer points. He writes well; it's just a foreign concept.
His grounding is non-Anglo Saxon law, from the perspective of literally SCA stuff.

I think of the book as sort of a ... Talmudic dialogue on alternatives to what we're used to. Is it something that should or can be implemented? Can't say. Probably not if I had to guess - crosses too much path-dependence.

The framework I use for "what is libertarianism" tends these days to be the three axis model from Arnold Kling.
To wit: conservatives are concerned about barbarism, "liberals" are concerned about oppression; libertarians about coercion.

"... white males with skills..." - well, that's very path dependent. It's also the target audience for say, Heinlein novels. Y'know, nerds :) The internet of the '90s was a big vector for libertarian ideas. "Normal" people won't bother with it. So you have had 20+ years of libertarian bikeshedding online.

Finally, the Clean Air Act... it's easy to forget the junkyards full of cars where all the air control stuff just stopped working, to forget the rather steep learning curve, to forget it all really didn't work out until adaptive control in engine control modules became commonplace. To treat it as ... "holy writ" ( uggggh, horrible metaphor ) is leaving a lot of information on the floor.

That's why the general known-your-customers (KYC or CYA - cover your ass) principles are the best practices to follow. Don't send someone money without knowing enough about them to be able to point the local law enforcement in their direction.

So Shopify used to not offer payment services for exactly this reason. (As far as I know.)
But some minimum quality control is a good thing. Having things that work isn't some sort of oppressive censorship.

If you want to sell something that is in the development phase, I fully demand folks be upfront about it. If It isn't obvious from the description, you no longer have a honest, open market - you have something built to defraud me. Especially if you have a return and support policy tha seems complicated on purpose to deter refunds.

This really isn't about a "bad" game. I'm fine with a game that I simply don't like. I'm fully irritated when the controls make things nearly impossible. I'm irritated when the story doesn't make sense and seems like clips from other games (hello, Alone in the Dark for the Wii, you have all this). At least that last game is, technically, finishable, but the truth is it also hits the line between passable and not.

And some of the games? They don't even score that highly. This is what folks complain about. Not because steam let them buy a bad game, but because some of these aren't games. They aren't well-labeled enough, and so on and so forth. Then on top of that they have this horrible customer service that disallows refunds.
On times with CPUs with so many cores, and with amazing single thread performance even at 3 GHz, overclocking is not what is used to be. E.g. in times when from a 33 MHz CPU you could get 21% speed-up running at 40MHz, or from 300 to 450 MHz on some budged CPUs (+50%, Celeron 300A with 128KB L2 cache), it was way more interesting (even knowing that the overclock could reduce the life of the components, because of electromigration, and some components running above their design limits).
It looks like the first part of what you want is nearly there - see https://github.com/Yamakaky/rust-bindgen

It converts C headers to a Rust module containing the relevant type/function/etc. definitions. On stable you need to either pregenerate the module (not too bad if you're pinning particular versions of libraries anyway) or add a build script to autogenerate it. On nightly, there's also a compiler plugin that does all the work for you, and looks not-too-dissimilar to what you wanted. The only thing it lacks is the prefix removal stuff.
> Reality check: a small, small minority of customers check PC game requirements before purchase. Considering Intel is the primary GPU of Apple's most popular computers I find it insane that one can claim Mac support but not support the majority of configurations in the past several years.

Huh? The Intel chips just aren't powerful enough to run modern 3D games. The discrete GPUs in iMacs and MBPs are. Why the heck is it insane to write "Works on macOS if you have a gaming GPU" or by extension, insane to write "Works on Windows if you have a gaming GPU"?

What you want from companies is to stop making great 3D games to cater to the lowest common denominator of a crappy Intel GPU which Apple refuses to care about or upgrade. Rendering the world of Witcher 3 just isn't possible on an Intel HD5000 on older Macs and requesting that games like this aren't made at all so people can stay ignorant is wrong.

The P2P case this article discusses is "peer-to-peer lockstep", which is only a small subset of possible p2p systems.

(it's called peer-to-peer instead of client-to-client, because there is no client role in such a system).
They are there to build features. Hopefully those features are something that solves business problems and ultimately drives revenue. Reliability is a requirement for a useful business system but is not a useful thing on its own. Your system needs to solve actual problems with software features to be useful. That is what the rest of the developers are rightly focused on.

To put in tech terms: This is horrible UX and it's no surprise to me that recycling isn't very effective. Asking your end users to deal with your internal complexity doesn't work in software or in recycling.

I want to help out, really I do, but I have more important things to worry about than which type of plastic goes in which bin. Hell, I'm happy to put the right kind of thing in the right bin if they made it clear which is which and why. But they don't do a very good job of communicating to me why this is important. They just say "recycle properly" then try to make you feel irresponsible and like a bad citizen for not knowing the proper way to do it based on some opaque and arcane process.

If you want people to help out, make it easy for them to feel like they're a part of it. The rules around recycling do the opposite - make you feel like you're harming things if you don't do things exactly right. Not a very empowering feeling at all.
Yes it would. What many countries do with agricultural subsidies and exports is effectively dumping. It's to protect domestic farming which is a fine goal but doing this and taking crap about free trade is a joke, and it really screws undeveloped countries whose only potential competitive advantage is low cost of labour. Just look at EU farmers and all the support they get.
I notice the installation-example is broken:

sudo curl ... > /path/to/local/file

That'll run the `curl` command with privileges, but the existing shell will handle the redirection, so writing beneath /etc, as in the example, will fail.

The simpler approach is:

curl https://horrid.site.sh/ | sudo tee /etc/blah/path
Your first misconception is that xnu (the OS X kernel) derives mainly from BSD. In actuality, it's based much more upon Mach than BSD. The BSD subsystem is largely implemented on top of Mach subsystem in the kernel (e.g. a BSD process is implemented on top of a Mach task), and xnu supports both Mach and BSD system calls. There is very little you could port from BSD into xnu without significant work, although obviously there has been a lot of cross-pollination between xnu and BSD (launchd, GCD, mandatory access control, etc.).

First thought that comes to mind is: If Amazon lets the police access the Echo it would prove they're constantly listening, even if the device is in "Mute" mode

Which is really the main reason why I have avoided these smart speakers. Encrypt them all you want. Send a NSL and all the sudden you've made wiretapping that easier. And that would be very bad for business.
... and just to add to that, if you look at the other popular sandboxed client-side runtimes, i.e., Adobe Flash and various JavaScript-enabled browsers (all of them implemented in C++), you will find a similar number of critical vulnerabilities.

>First thought that comes to mind is: If Amazon lets the police access the Echo it would prove they're constantly listening, even if the device is in "Mute" mode

Yeah, but this is entirely ridiculous. It's trivial for anyone with access to the device to verify that it most likely doesn't do that.
People like the visibility from sitting higher. Also, "bigger = safer" is a common thought process.
If they weren't encrypted, could they not just get the data via 'other channels' anyway?

Existing homes aren't magically safe. Safe isn't a binary, it's a continuum, and we're constantly improving our building techniques. We don't have the resources to knock down all the older houses and rebuild them.
