C++ Error Handling: Why Use Eithers in Favor of Exceptions and Error-Codes
Assange has spent the better part of a year implying that Seth Rich was a Wikileaks source. If true, this is a shocking turn of events that could have broad implications.

If false, Assange will have permanently damaged his reputation, at least in my eyes.

Public transit SOLVED the problem 100 years ago in the US. And then it was sabotaged by the big automakers.

> which is moving towards increasing automation, use of artificial intelligence

It is such baseless stuff which irks me every time, I have read from MANY papers that automation is doing this that without explicitly saying X automation firm screwed up the revenues.

I would like to see visible proof that "automation" is eating into the revenues, no report says that, they just say "automation and AI"

The journalists don't know difference between AI vs ML and everyone is acting as if "AI and automation" will destroy X firm, no, they won't. Anyone who works in the sw field would know that there are many manual things done in the project so much so that there wouldn't be an "automation firm" which would sell blah blah robots to do human work. It is way off into the future, if it'll ever happen. This madness has to stop.

edit: clarification about who they meant
It does not have to be free. Just being able to bring my child and, later in the day, take then from where I work (or close by) would be as close to perfect as possible. I would happily pay, even 100%, if the company would facilitate an on-site daycare.

In regard to saving "a few minutes", I don't know how you (or other people) feel about it, but I'd happily spend more time with my child.

Jazz apples are the only apples I buy anymore. They're a bit hard, but they're also the only apple that I actually have to stop myself from eating too many of. It's a shame that they can be harder to find than Fujis and Honeycrisps, which I find a lot more boring (but still miles better than the Red Delicious), but I think they're becoming a bit more common over time.
Bollocks. Let me refute your central points. You suggest that

1. People should leave their houses less

2. Cities should become less dense

3. Busses should get more crowded

4. Somehow, get everyone on a bike.

Actually, these points are so ridiculous, I'm not gonna wasted my time.

One More Thing Inside Apple’s Insanely Great (or Just Insane) New Mothership
Why can I never actually get sci hub to work? I've even downloaded the data dumps but never figured out how to use their search. Is there a keyword search? All of my searches return "no articles found".
No, the ground water level is ~2m. This is a swamp, tunnels would be too expensive. And Houston is too big.

Houston had a working public mass transport system, but big automotive pressure/corruption destroyed it. That's why Houston is unique. The mayor is elected every two years, because corruption is so rampant.

The now widest highway worldwide, the I10 to Katy once had a railroad track in the middle. They even had a star system and park & ride before WW2.
I think it would be fun to construct a similar conjecture where the same kind of probabilistic analysis says that it's very likely to be true but it is in fact false.
I don't see how the tunnels can be commercially viable just carrying Teslas. That's a tiny fraction of traffic. Apart from anything else I can't see cities granting permits for exclusive tunnel systems like that, which don't benefit the broader public.

Interesting developments at Twitter
I think remote work and online shopping are developing perfectly well without Musk's help. And I think we need to increase the density of cities (at least, city centres and inner suburbs).

How do the sleds preclude developing public transport? Why wouldn't we see mini-vans pick people up from homes or community hubs and then use the tunnels to take an express route to the CBD? Or larger sleds that accommodate a bus or truck sized pod? If these HOV pods avoided a congestion charge, there would be an incentive to use them.

Obviously drivers and their cars will fill any space given to them, and cycling tunnels might be too expensive, but hopefully a change in traffic flow and parking availability would make room and safety for cycling above ground.

Imagine buses with good cycling storage so you could ride to the hub, board a bus, zip to the CBD, alight and ride the last few kilometres to your destination.

Entrenched interests will fight it for a time, but it wouldn't surprise me if these guys could make it happen.
> Serve bits. Suggest movies based on coarse signals. Is there much left?

I didn't want to answer your question right away since it felt like you were trolling at first. But here's my answer. There's indeed, quite a bit more than just serving bits and title suggestions.

The "left over" portion includes things such as getting those bits to move effortlessly to the multitude of TV's, set-top boxes, and streaming sticks, not to mention the effort and engineering to get those movies and shows streaming effortlessly to your mobile devices.

We decided to go with a given set of rules for linting at the project start and problems due to limitations by the linter have been extremely rare, in which case we've updated the rules because we can motivate a change.

Of course, a tool like 'go fmt' is far superior to common linters, as most third party packages look the same as your own code.
Obtaining access to a system, and faking the information you'd get from obtaining access to a system, are very different skills; being good at one does not automatically translate to being good at the other.

And producing convincing fake information is in general a pretty specific skill (and one that, thankfully, even very dedicated people are usually quite bad at).
> Cities like LA will become denser over time.

If the boring company solves issues with personal travel then cities like LS will become less dense. There's a reason urban sprawl didn't exist before the car.
If no evidence one way or the other comes to light, then people will just continue to believe what they want to believe about the case.

This is very expensive research. Nuclear propulsion is definitely going to be utilized it just isn't a budget priority right now.
Maybe the explanation for glossing over some of the obvious hindrances (that you and several other commenters wisely point out) is that these projects are not conceived out of an organic need or to problem-solve issues - even though they are projected as such...but, these are projects that are born out of some (unpublished) masterplan/roadmap for learning to establish a colony on Mars.

Just learning how to build tunnels is interesting from that respect.

The reason that isn't stated is because Musk likes to create projects around a "purpose" and business plan for them to succeed (even if they are retro-fitted - that is, he decided first that it would be important to tunnel, and then arrived at the "why tunnels on earth").

edit: not a new thought. some other commenters already pointed this out. I read those after posting this.

One problem is that trains only move an insane amount of people that are all going the same way.

Another problem is that all those people have to walk to and from the end station.

A "packet switched" system of sending individual cars at high speed solves both those problems, and going just by my gut feel, should have a quite high throughput too.

it also makes it easier to bring them later (after 1 year) into US on L1 without all these limitation of H1 like prevailing wage, yearly cap, spouse of L1 can work, GC seems to be easier (at least that seemed to be the case 10 years ago when I last paid attention to immigration)
I feel like apples are an appropriate thing to be a little bit snobby about. There just really is a lot of difference between cultivars, and some of them are legitimately gross.

I think it would be one thing to be a snob to the extent of "I'll only eat this one cultivar from New Guinea which costs $30 apiece and must be ripened individually under a swan's left wing", but it's another to say "I only care for a few types of apple, and also screw the Red Delicious".
Nice instruction.

How real books trumped ebooks
The American obsession with "alone time" is exactly why Musk's idea is the only effective way to relieve the traffic problem. Americans are adverse to change, and the result of this is a solution needs to leverage our existing infrastructure. Putting the cars on sleds allows people to keep the luxury and flexibility of personal cars without requiring a lifestyle shift.

Furthermore, a solution that leverages personal vehicles is slightly more viable for a private sector company. Telsa can continue to promote their car sales without that having a negative effect on the Boring Company.

This idea that a company can replace our entire existing infrastructure with a train/bus system is just purely impractical. There is the solution that seems the most obvious (current public transit), and then there is the one that is actually viable from a business perspective.
WikiLeaks and Assange are heading for a pretty mixed historical reputation right now -- WikiLeaks really needs to either get, or publish, some damaging dumps on conservative/right-wing candidates or else it's going to be remembered as just another partisan outlet focusing solely on opposition scandals.
Yeah, just what I need a notification for every time someone responds to one of my comments.
Being housewife in the past was not like today - washing, cooking, shopping and all that took much more work then today. You also fixed cloth by yourself and had to sew. Even embroidery was more then just a hobby it is today, it had more practical function. On farm or withing peasants, there was a lot of garden and animals related work to do too. Which is one of challenges of staying with children now, you feel useless and underused a lot of time.

In here, you are expected to take a lot of time away of work while the child is small. Colleges were honestly horrified when I told I consider staying shorter. You are "just a housewife" during that time. It is love or their life for some women, but definitely not for most. That time is actually considered risk time for depression and alcoholism - people drink out of isolation and boredom and depression. Good think through is that you can talk openly about all those negative feelings with other women, you don't get shut up with "that was your choice be happy".

If you feel like trying it, I would say try it even if you are a man. Maybe it will work for you. It is more practical in some ways, but you became dependent on partner on a lot - not just money but also social stuff. There is a reason why women were supposed to be so much more talkative and on the phone constantly by 1950 stereotypes - because alone in the house most of the day.

I don't think switching would work for most people, you have to make a lot of changes. It is major lifestyle switch and adjustment period is tiring (both into it and out of it after). You will basically need new hobbies (old ones will be frustrating or cease to be satisfying or are impossible), need new ways of finding people to socialize with (when I work, the society is sort of around you without effort - the challenge is to be alone once in a while. At home you have to work on not being isolated.). You have to get used to slow speed of doing things and deadly routine suddenly and basically having to wait for partner while he is out and it is depressing until you do.

One issue is, your partner will not understand your challenges, they are not real challenges from his point of view as an employed person with deadlines and crappy boss nor what it is like - while you will slowly forget what it was like to be at work. That is where nagging wife stereotype comes from - she is supposed to exist for the sake of family which includes partner, but from partners point of view nothing of interest is at home (neither much duty or really fun). Which basically means, it can work but both needs to be aware of this risk and communicate well.
I've always wondered why they refuse to support Mercurial. I agree that git has won the race, but people still like and use hg. And it's always a win-win.
Switching tasks is expensive [1]. Twice as many cores running at half the speed can be considerably faster in the real world because you're not constantly stopping to flush the cache, save the kilobytes of register a modern CPU has, etc. Honestly, I'm surprised that x86 has kept with just two virtual threads for this long. Architectures like Sparc and Power have 4+ threads per core because so many modern jobs are built around hurrying up and waiting.

Taking into account the possibility of memory corruption, I think ultimately they won't get away without some sort of checkpointing to external storage.

To actually take advantage of persistent RAM and have fast restarts with no rollback, I bet early solutions will just partition the RAM into "bonkers-prone software" and "data" parts, with reboots involving a complete wipe of the former. Then somebody will submit Linux patches to keep some application or kernel data in the data part and hell knows where it goes from there.

And BTW, the announcement doesn't say they already have persistent RAM.

A "packet switched" system of sending individual cars at high speed solves both those problems, and going just by my gut feel, should have a quite high throughput too.

People are walking from the station to these giant office towers in central London. The walk from the Tube station to the office must only take 5-10 minutes, total. My gut feeling says the throughput won't be high specifically because you'll have 800 or so people trying to get out at the same place at roughly the same time.

VS Code has a smiley you can use to post feedback to Twitter. It makes the status bar look like a juvenile bulletin board. It's already been reported as an issue and people want it out of the way. That alone made me deinstall it after less than five minutes.

2. rpi SSH server sends back a request for a torrent of the 1999 smash hit "The Matrix"

3. laptop sends torrent "The Matrix" iso.

4. If the average latency dips below a threshold value, don't connect.

5. If it's done in five minutes, connect.

6. set rpi's SSH server to key-based authentication for strong keypair that was generated on user's laptop.

7. Done.

Yes. I'd add collapse of labor unions, but that's rather a consequence. The perception of women taking jobs from men also follows from loss of male-dominated manufacturing jobs. Women did that work during WWII, but they were enticed back home afterward.

This is placing a much higher standard on robots than humans are held to: to demonstrate that robots have to make hard decisions you presented a scenario where a human making either decision would have socially acceptable justifications available. But that just may be the key: maybe robots don't have to have superhuman decision making as long as they can produce humanly acceptable justifications for their decisions. That might still be hard, but at least you don't have to do that in a split second.

> While there are workers who cannot find jobs, there is a severe shortage of computer engineers in the tech industry.

And obviously, everyone could become a computer engineer with enough training? No, not really. And that goes for every job. The idea that if some job is no longer valued by the market we can just retrain people to <job of the week> is so wrong it isn't funny anymore. People have different talents. Not everyone can be everything.

> These tech companies cannot hire enough engineers. They had to bring H1B workers from India, for example.

This has been refuted at least half a dozen times on HN already. They brought those people in as cheap labor forces, not because of some shortage.
