Yes, actually, most of the "Autopilot" features have been available in production cars for over a decade. Tesla is really late to this game, although people can't seem to realize it because of the distortion field.

And that's before we get into disengagements per 1000 miles, where Tesla trails most of the industry by far.

No wonder Musk tries to demonize AI. Self-driving is a race to the bottom, with its development slashing car sales by an order of magnitude. That would be bad for an established, mature, car maker, but would be crushing for a company relying purely on future growth.

Not only Tesla is behind most in self-driving, it is the most exposed to the downsides of it.
In all seriousness, this seems useful as an educational tutorial on how smart contracts work.

ACQUIRING KNOWLEDGE OF TRADITIONAL MEDICINE AND HEALING IN GHANA
I feel the need to correct the record. You do the things that don't scale in order to better realize/appreciate where to put the effort to fix them. Tesla has the equivalent of an mvp/poc production line. You'd be kidding yourself if you think they're not improving it every minute. And you know the improvements they're making are the ones with the biggest impact, in that exact order of priority.

If you try to make the perfect assembly line before you deliver 1 car, you'll be making huge over-engineering expenditures and costly assumptions which result in even greater net production losses.

If by "derived" you mean that it is another implementation of functional package management, then you are right.

Functional languages force you to be more correct, more often. Eliminates a bunch of classes of bugs which are anathema to scientific computing, and are generally so high level that compilers can optimize extremely aggressively. Also, scientific programming is usually much more about data flow and transformation, which is FP’s wheelhouse.
There are a couple of compiler backends. The traditional Berkeley UPC to C translator is based on the Open64 compiler, then there are also integrated translators into GCC (this one), clang, and many others.

The generated C code can be further compiled with the system compiler, but with the integrated systems this is not needed.

I've had a ton of problems with the TB2/miniDP port. I still use it for my display connection and GigE to both a 15" and 13" MBP, but it can be intermittent and flakey.
I agree, the thoughtful and intentional use of language is important (read through raganwald's post and it is a good explanation of that). Seems cynical to me to think of conversing as a strategic game of manipulation.

Didn't mean to agree with the previous poster – simply found it amusing that the idea of not needing to think about communication was immediately disproven by the statement being misinterpreted.
Furthermore if these events are common then perhaps it's an indication that the laws need to change.

I think it's incredibly unwise to program a machine to "strategically" break the law.

Yeah you're right about spark for the processing. I did see a lot of Hadoop binaries in their tableau server (it amused me to see zookeeper.exe in windows task manager) and assumed they were using spark for internal data representation, but that was a false assumption I suppose.
I am a child of my time. So of course I do not want to go back, as allmost all of my knowledge and skills were useless there. And as I said, I like technology.

I just don't like it, that we got this technology by unsustainable exploitation.

And about diseases, starvation, etc. as far as I know, we still have those and in absolute numbers, much more than ever, as there are much more people living on the world today.

And looking into modern (first world) hospitals or old people homes, were all those happy people slowly and forgotten rot away - I am not sure, that if you would sum up their suffering you would come up with better numbers than in the most barbaric times, where the old ones had to go to die in the snow, when they became useless.

So like I said, yes we have technology now and technology is awesome for solving problens.
But now we face the problems caused by technology. And they are big. So no, I would not go back, I rather go forward with better technology. But to develop and use better technology, one needs to see first the problems of the existing one and its effect on society.

> You cannot inspect your way to quality.

I have to emphasize the sentence you ended your comment with. Anybody who has worked in volume production has heard this phrase too many times to count.

People who never learned the difference between QC and QA never seem to understand this phrase either. Doesn't mean they are dumb, but does mean they don't even understand the scope of what they don't know.

Another common misunderstanding is the dynamics of the learning curve. Costs of high volume production drop precipitously (and quality typically increases proportionally as well) but incrementally as volume goes up. A common misunderstanding is that that means you work incrementally to get better. But that is true for systems set up from the start as high volume systems. Tesla the company has been at it for almost 15 years (Musk has been there for 13 of them) and still appears to be in low volume manufacturing mode.

It's not super surprising when you consider that Space X makes small volume, bespoke hardware. A big backend system is still a one-off even if you run huge volume through it. Cars, phones, etc are a completely different game.
> Self-driving is a race to the bottom, with its development slashing car sales by an order of magnitude.

This isn't bad if you're the only one who can ship self-driving cars with acceptable quality and volume as you'd be disrupting the rest of the industry to fuel massive growth.

Steve Jobs was also famous for denouncing something right up until Apple had "the best on the market" of that same thing. It seems like standard CEO playbook.

I wonder why North Koreans haven't yet started a darknet market of some sort. They have the skills, the means and it's not like they have moral qualms about that sort of a thing.
No, there's actually a fair bit of activity around it, if you read through the comments in the pull request it has a fair bit of activity.

They recently got a fair bit of interest on the mailing list https://goo.gl/kvNwC1 and raised some money for it as well https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/9250#issuecomment-3208....

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that it's planned to go in the next release.
> * If you're on mall wifi, you can already see unencrypted traffic for everyone else*

Without contradicting your observation, I want to mention that virtually anything important you do on the Internet these days--from online banking to Google searches to reading Hacker News--is protected by a second independent layer of encryption: HTTPS. I'm not excusing the WPA2 flaws, but I do think that your bank info, web searches, and Hacker News comments are secure even at the mall.

If someone can offer a credible explanation of why online banking or other HTTPS activity is insecure on public wifi, I'd like to hear it please.
Let me put it differently:

Police actions need to be transparent. There are strong reasons to release recordings with police actions in them.

But if the recordings are unrelated to any police officers or police actions, then all of that goes away. It's completely fine for police to not release footage of two random people interacting. And that scenario is what is analogous to BART surveillance videos.
Did you consider (for your family car) a Chrysler Pacifica? It's a PHEV minivan with 33mi electric range. Sure not fully EV, but close enough for grocery grabbing and some commutes.

I would like to know the positions funding model upfront.

Its nice to know what tech is used, and weather the software stack is monolithic or diverse across the organization.

A lot of this is confirmation bias at its finest. Not saying you're wrong, but I think it's naive to assume Tesla has some "secret sauce" - there are equally smart and competent people at Tesla competitors. I would bet that the risk and decision making process may be different (incumbents may want higher probability of success to make a bet, while Musk's NPV analysis is different), but again it's naive to assume they don't understand at all what is or isn't possible in manufacturing
So it looks like Ubiquiti UniFi firmware version 3.9.3.7537 patches against this - which was released to Beta testers ~two hours ago on their community site.

I wonder if this is also going to require client side patching from the OS vendors.
Toyota’s recalls are expensive, as they involve a network of dealers who need to be paid for providing the repair and maintenance.

Tesla’s vertical integration of service centers has an interesting side effect - recalls and repairs are pretty cheap, as the costs of service centers and loaner vehicles they give out are fixed and have been borne already.

I wonder if that makes the company more dismissive of potential issues.

You can't reduce your surface area to zero. So survival free-falling into water is very unlikely, even if you land perfectly. Uninjured is definitely impossible.

It sounds like his pilot chute and un-deployed main chute slowed him down just enough, and he landed well enough, that his body was able to take it. Lack of spleen helps too.
Is there similar tuning script for Postgres?
Remarkable map: Where can North Korea's missiles reach?
Due to surface tension, hitting water at speed is actually worse than hitting concrete. As a sibling comment stated, from his injuries, he almost certainly landed feet first. His shattered feet and hips absorbed enough of the impact that he was able to survive. The unopened chute would also have slowed him down somewhat [EDIT: and presumably served to orient him "properly" for landing].

Often there are many (more or less reasonable) extrinsic reasons for non-tech domains staying with the stacks they use.

I've done some programming for cognitive psychology experiments, fMRI analysis etc, and although I didn't like the often proprietary systems used (E-Prime, Presentation etc), I could see it would have required hefty investments of very scarce time to switch to something 'better'. The vast bulk of the software was written by non-programmer grad students, for whom the tech was a very 3rd order issue: they just needed their experiments up and running. This was generally done by finding a close-enough prior experiment, and tweaking it in a hurry, often with limited understanding of how the system worked. There was in most cases no possibility of paying programmers to do the work.

This may be true, but why don't they have auto-pilot (or at least adaptive cruise) on their Bolt? One reason I didn't buy one - why pay ~$40k pre-incentives for something without a key luxury feature?
Tesla is doing stamping on-site and in-house. They have to store their in-process inventory somewhere. Toyota tends to push that problem back on their suppliers, demanding small just-in-time deliveries at a steady rate regardless of the optimum batch size for each part.

It's an classic problem in manufacturing. Where do you put the in-process inventory? Near where it's made? Near where it's used? Someplace else? What batch size do you use for each part? Bigger batches produce lower costs, but you have to put the stuff somewhere. There's software for optimizing this. But over-optimizing that can be a mistake.

Part of the Toyota system is to deliberately keep sources of confusion away from assembly, because confusion in assembly, where many parts come together, is likely to affect both quality and cost. It's better to have trouble upstream, where there's more buffering.

Tesla is in this mess because their production line is running far slower than planned, and their production planning was for a higher rate. So parts manufacturing and final assembly are out of sync.

Think of tribes, or kinship groups. Even without the state formalities of written law, police function, civic bldgs, etc, people arrange themselves with unspoken customs and traditional dominance hierarchies.

The threat to such a tribe isn't anarchy. It is the better-organized foreigner that grinds his subjects into cogs for a well-oiled killing machine. Think Romans on Jews, or Germans on Eastern Europe...

As for states, they certainly existed in various forms at the time. My original point, that I received from Quigley, is that certain stateless groups in the "dark ages" provided a counterexample to those who believe that you can't have civilization without a state. In modern terms, I guess this would be a sort of "localism".

Honest question, can you learn netsec etc. without many thousands of hours of "fooling around" on the internet? Participating in online discussion boards, reading postmortems and documentation, listening to conference speakers? How does the military train it? I have trouble believing you can develop these skillsets without carte blanche to the internet. Are they importing talent from surrounding regions? Do they just run "dumb" hacking tools made by others against low hanging fruit?

It’s feasible and easy to write assoc-in atop of Dynamic... it’s just not done because nobody programming in Haskell thinks it’s valuable. We could choose to support much more opt-out dynamic behavior no sweat, but nobody wants to.

The idea of assoc-in working for every type of Map also doesn’t make sense. Map only exists statically. Types as Clojure discusses them exist at runtime, are statically Dynamic, and it’s trivial to write assoc-in that works over all of them in any language.

Your argument hinges on the idea that it’s impractical to write using Dynamic in Haskell. I do not think this is true. There is perhaps some value in greater library support, but it is easy to do this. It is simply not considered valuable.

I think that the companies delivering the most raw value to the world are the ones that fly under the radar. The 100 person software company that builds a properly meaningful product isn't making the news because it isn't sexy, or because it isn't generating huge cash (like we see in fintech or advertising or social media). And 100 person companies aren't hiring a ton, so you don't always see them on job boards. So I think it is partly a matter of looking really hard, jumping on the perfect opportunity, and staying a while.

The company I work for today builds software for the marine shipping industry that makes people better at their jobs, and cargo ships more fuel efficient. I feel like the work that I do has a legitimate positive impact on the world. Purely because of the work I have done on one of our products, I will forever be carbon positive. I deeply care about the environment so that means a lot to me. Send me an email (profile) if that interests you.

The writer is incorrect. MySQL doesn't wait for query execution to finish to start sending rows, unless it has to. For a SELECT with no WHERE, it definitely doesn't have to (ORDER BY requiring a sort step is one case where it does). However, the default behavior of most (all I've ever run in to) MySQL clients is to buffer the entire result set before returning, to minimize the time the server spends executing the statement and holding locks.
There's also a very nice Python intro from the same author.
