All modern electric cars can trivially have enough 'parking assistance' AI to line them up exactly with a charging port (which could be, for example, beside or even under the car). The car can then trigger the charger to connect, and when you get in the car and start it it can trigger the charger to disconnect.

All that is needed is standardization effort, and an up-front security review e.g. cars 'sign on' with a proper certificate when the charger connects so charging stations can decide who to bill etc.

I wouldn't imagine this replaces the conventional charging plug you can use at home, but rather augments it.

Here's hoping ;)
It is fair to say that Elvish is inspired by PowerShell. It is much more lightweight and much closer to traditional Unix shells, though.
> in this thread people are professing "I had acupuncture and got better, therefore acupuncture works"

Where are you seeing that? I didn't see it. What I see is "I had acupuncture and got better, therefore acupuncture works for me", which is a much weaker claim. Moreover, it contains a great insight: treatment for back pain needs to be highly idiosyncratic.
This just makes me sad that windows stealing focus, grabbing a randomly typed space bar, and submitting themselves before you can even read them is still a thing.

I'm sad because the opportunity to study and learn from a unique human culture and society is being lost and that officials representing the Brazilian government seemed to actively block attempts at further study - which was the point of the documentary.

I also somewhat fear, from what was shown in the documentary, for their future as in many cases, suddenly introducing a more modern/western way of life to an isolated people often seems to result in social breakdown.

I believe it's best to err on the side of caution in cases like this when you are interacting with a complex delicate system.

While I would consider myself a western liberal, fully appreciative of the benefits of a western scientific education and the use of modern technology to improve human existence, I would still expect great sensitivity when introducing such benefits to a people like this.

I'm not a relativist generally but in this case, the absolutist belief that these peoples' lives will be improved by exposing them to a modern education and technology reminds me that missionaries also had an absolute belief that introducing such people to the Bible (for example) would "improve" them and we know that the results were mixed in the latter case.

>They surely don't eat for the pleasure of adding some more fat to their body. //

We surely do, isn't that the problem, we're tailored to times of famine & plenty meaning eating is pleasurable even when we're physically sated to allow us to gain weight ready for the next famine?

I'm on the line of obesity, I eat most when I'm lethargic, depressed, bored. I eat less when I'm exercising, occupied mentally, distracted, physically tired.

One big reason to make compiler warnings fatal (not mentioned here, as far as I can see) is the fact that otherwise, unless you do a full rebuild, you won't see warnings for any source files that don't need to be rebuilt.

Oh, the brain wetware is good at arithmetic; just unfortunately not in a way that is available to conscious thought.

Just like there are computer languages in which there is little or no arithmetic support, even though the machine does nothing but arithmetic when evoking their meaning.

Just like we can apply silly abstraction inversions to bring about arithmetic in a system that doesn't expose it (e.g. Church numerals in a lambda calculus), the brain implements conscious arithmetic in a very inefficient way.
How Mobile Apps Are Pumping Up Field Operations
When your co-workers start getting routinely carted out by emergency workers for cardiac distress, seizures, and other problems developed since they started the job. A job can grind you down and I'm watching my current one eat some co-workers alive. There are limits to how much stress you can put a person through routinely.
[ GMV ] DarkSiders – Brotherhood
Maybe what people want is a centralised web, not a "good practice" web ? This is not what I want but as a matter of fact, that may be what majority wants.
I wonder how devs/techies people think they know the truth for other people.

What changed a lot of things are modern apps and their new features : push notifications, infinite scrolls (attention killer) or adding a f... emoji (I miss smileys personnaly).
The rest is just filling empty boxes about what people want/need : a chat for friend, a chat for work, a single feed and not 10's of website to search to have a single information. All I think is missing is local web, all is considered as world and then maybe local, people don't talk to each other in the bars, they prefer now to use Tinder and Facebook to insult themselves.
Chrome headless migration has been my bane for the last two weeks. It's almost ready, but not yet.

The short version of what's wrong: chrome headless does not support extensions. The chromedriver used by selenium works via starting chrome with an automation extension that gives it certain needed functionality. So things like setting the window size, taking screenshots, and a few other important features just cause chromedriver to crash or hang.

There's bugs filed and some clever googlers are trying to fix it all- but it's not ready for our purposes yet. I don't want to rewrite dozens of tests that work with phantomjs to get around chrome's bugs.
It's very hard to avoid in anything but the smallest companies.

The important quote from the article you linked is: "But what happens when we throw some unsafe code at the issue?", so the claim that safe Rust doesn't have UB (that isn't considered a bug in the compiler) still stands. If you mix in unsafe code, bad things may happen, regardless of whether you wrote the unsafe yourself or rely on a library.

10 YOUTUBERS WITH EVIL VOICES
I am currently in this situation. The company ran out of money and cant afford to pay us. That is a good indicator to find something else.
It's more like corruption-fueled authoritarianism: police is allowed to extort as long, as they extort only those companies that government wants to harm, judges are corrupt and afraid of the government, but as long as they side with the government nobody is looking for corruption. So there are both elements, rigidly enforced questionable prosecutions and questionable criminal charges that go away for the right price. And I'm pretty sure they always go hand in hand.
You must also account for the case where the source line removed was only useless because of the specific context it had been inlined to by an earlier stage of the optimiser.
That's… wildly different. Yeah, for backups, snapshots + zfs send is amazing, but rsync is a general purpose file sync tool.
In most places, it counts as "distracted driving", and is not legal. However, it is rarely enforced, and many people do so anyways. Whenever I see a car weaving in and out of its lane, I like to guess whether they are drunk or texting, because the two have similar effects on driving ability.
Still works for me - you occasionally have to decline "things you may have missed", but they come as a lump and the chronological order is preserved.

I think that last bit is the most important one. You need to be practical about stuff like this.

You can use vanilla `main` for Windows apps too, just need to override the default subsystem when invoking the linker. I never understood the point of `WinMain`; IIRC there's nothing it does that you can't do just as well without it.
If safe Rust code does not invoke any of the UB corners of LLVM then Rust can claim to be free from UB. I don't know enough to guarantee or verify it, but it's my current understanding that this is the case.
We are working to restore the openness of online discussion with Lyra: www.hellolyra.com. We aim to provide helpful services for conversation, not to get users addicted.

We have made the choice to focus around people and conversations rather than topics (because Lyra is designed to be harrassment-proof, and topics lead easily to harrassment - you don't see this so much in the tech world but in the mainstream it's a huge problem).

We are currently thinking about the best way to do notification aggregation (Facebook does this very badly - several comments on the same conversation will give you several different notifications) and marking-as-read. We have several interesting options in test at the moment.
No, that would be insanely efficient compared to what it actually does: it infers those 3D positions from real-time 2D image processing.
Just to give an example, consider this short poem:

Now try translating this to a language where the tree names are gendered differently, such that e.g. both are male, or both are female.
History has thought us that we should probably be wary of "secure" networks. That said, there are a few cases where I could see a case being made for rsh etc w/kerberos: containers/vms - networking limited to a single physical host, with trusted clients/vms etc.

A "modern" network with ipv6+802.1x+ipsec - a situation where you trust the ip6-address just as much, or more than, a typical ssh host key (typical ssh is set up with trust-on-first use, not with expiring certificates).

Now, this is all balanced against the fact that you probably will use ssh anyway - and a hole in ssh(d) will likely be catastrophic - so in the balance, you might be better off managing one secure infrastructure.

On the other hand, if you've set up proper ipsec with client certificates, and the possibility to "dial-in" -- that still holds - why monitor and maintain two secure stacks, if you fundamentally need to trust each one?

As for Debian, it seems someone made the (poor IMNHO) choice of setting up "alternatives" for rsh to point to ssh (if rsh-client isn't installed):

$ update-alternatives --query rsh
Name: rsh
Link: /usr/bin/rsh
Slaves:
rsh.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/rsh.1.gz
Status: auto
Best: /usr/bin/ssh
Value: /usr/bin/ssh

Alternative: /usr/bin/ssh
Priority: 20
Slaves:
rsh.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/ssh.1.gz

As I understand it, part of Google's new approach is indeed moving to secure network links (with policy on top) - in such an environment, I'm not convinced there's much to be gained by layering TLS, ssh, HTTP2+SSL on top of end-to-end client/host authenticated networking/vpn.
Have a go with Lyra (hellolyra.com), it's designed to be an efficient use of your time rather than a sink for time, trolling and harrassment.
Many will do McKenzie Method work ($10-15 book on Amazon, Treat Your Own Back) for lumbar pain in flexion. It is very specifically good for that and that alone, which is the most common form of low back pain. I found a lot of relief using the tools in the book (yoga-type postures) and weight lifting.
I had to stop myself. The power of habit is strong!
Actually, the Swiss franc is at one of its lowest points in the 10Y view [1]

A Swiss franc is traded at roughly 1.09 Euros, I would say significant, sure, but not a deal breaker in high-tech industries. If we were talking about commoditized products I would have to agree but in our industries this is just not the case.

You can technically construct a female-gendered noun for "user" in Russian as well - there's a generic construct for that - it just looks really awkward.
This is not correct. Internet services are considered high yield businesses and their ROI is very high. Google, Facebook, Apple, etc... pay high salaries even comparing to swiss standards.

The problem is that a startup is, eh, a start - up. You are using mainly your skills and as much resources you have to start. An expensive place should not be ideal for that, but hey, san francisco is super expensive and is still the startup hub.

So maybe there is something else...

> We could put the earth into an ice age for under 1% of global GDP. Discussing geo-engineering is generally seen as a moral hazard, though, so western commentators act like no such possibility exists.

Yes it exists, but taking this road is the same road that took is to the point where we are right now. I am not very certain it will help at all.
I would suggest the main reason they leave is the US is the largest single country market that is accessible. China is probably a bigger market going forward but for western companies a bigger cultural change.
Its the signal of a dying creature. Once office politics are waged and won, hierarchy's are established- suddenly, communicating ideas openly for people only interested in the product and the customer - and by doing that jumping over hierarchy's is a criminal offense - the last terminal stage is reached.

The duration of the process may vary- the outcome does not.
no most people don't know on inflation really works I expeculate 99% of the people don't really know or have big misconceptions on how inflation works.

"Politically, it is far more palatable than raising taxes because the process is badly understood and well obfuscated."

It is really self-explanatory
"any price decrease that would have occurred as a result of productivity gains are denied to the consumer" trough inflation.

Squatting, deadlifting, and don't forget Rippetoe's favorite accessory exercise - back extensions, or reverse hypers if you can find the setup - do wonders.

Pairing weightlifting with McKenzie Method work is great if you suffer from lumbar flexion back pain; the most common out there. Also, weightlifting works best for that type of pain as well due to it getting rid of anterior pelvic tilt over time and reinforcing a neutral spine, to say nothing of the increased muscle gain and postural support you get from pushing iron.
I worked for a big finance conglomerate as a contractor and were were using an Appian service for doing authentication... We didn't really need it but it was part of the project requirements.

It seems like one of these companies that makes money by latching themselves onto the systems of large, inefficient corporations that don't trust their own engineers to do the work (even though they are capable).

At that company we were also forced to use Amazon Lambda for a lot of API work; it slowed us down a lot but the business demanded it.
I could believe that for business focused products like Google Cloud its not worth the admin overhead for the revenue they'll get from individuals hacking on side projects.

The argument I've seen is "macros often expand into unintuitive code, especially when multiple macros are involved, so these kinds of warnings would be confusing if there were such macros."

It might be possible to do the same thing if you didn't check any code generated from macros.
Agreed. Not only that, but if they are accessible, the ramps can add another 100 yards of walking or so. I timed it out once, and a full cycle of the lights occurred during the time that it took to cross the ramp.

Pretty sure it's the two-party system giving people a non-choice between options that really nobody wants. They've been calling it picking between the lesser of two evils for as long as I can remember.

The real question is why they settle for this.

Look at the recent elections, those two people were supposed to be the best candidate options for presidency from the entire population? Really none of the people in the entire nation were better suited for this job?

... on the other hand, the two-party system in the UK is not much better, but they still manage to have the publicly funded BBC. fortunately :)
D is memory unsafe by default so it probably has a lot of them.
Not at all. They are probably most used today in Kerberos environments, where they are both encrypted and secure.
OK. Sure. Unenforceable in California.

Now what about the other 49 states? My buddy in Pennsylvania couldn't get a job at the Apple Store because of a non compete with Best Buy.

This extends beyond the bubble of the bay area and even tech. It's a problem in virtually any industry, anywhere.

>>that some countries will forbid non-automated car to access some public road in the near future.

I am sorry, but I don't believe that will happen in anything that could be described as near future. I don't see any actual bans to be introduced any sooner than 30-50 years from now, and even then only if:

1) the technology gets really good, not just "kind of good but only when the conditions are optimal"

2) the technology gets cheap enough that you can put it on a kind of car that nowadays is sold new without A/C and electric windows and don't impact the price of the car too much.
Although it is nice to have more funds available, which increases the competition among VCs, the main point is not lack of funds.
I used to say that a good VC brings you two important things: money and market. Money alone doesn't bring you much (don't get me wrong ..).
In my eyes that is the main issue in the startup scenario in Switzerland: lack of market. Having a population of about 8 million people means that your startup has to focus in exporting products & services since the beginning... which adds some layer of complexity/bureaucracy ...
Startups tend to establish themselves as close as possible to the client market to simplify as much as they can their initial operation..
It's insane to me to see a car unable to make a right turn in city traffic due to a slow pedestrian.

Is this any more "insane" than holding up pedestrians on city streets so that cars can pass? Is it fair to assume that car driver's time is always more valuable than that of pedestrians, and thus they should always be given priority?
