"The RedLock CSI team immediately reported the incident to Tesla and the issue was quickly rectified."

That's the most you can ask for beyond basic competence. There will always be security bugs in software to some extent, the fact that Tesla responded quickly gives me more confidence in them.

But I agree with your overall point, at some point some hacker is going to kill people with a hacked car (probably not a Tesla), and it's going to take lots of dead bodies and legislation for congress to pass appropriate standards for security. Hopefully we'll reach a point where computer security in cars is regulated the same as seat belts and air bags.
It's unfortunately a much more convenient narrative than blaming the people that actually benefitted the most (i.e., bank CEOs).

"This is part of the reason I love Hayes as a central character for this book — because he’s not your cookie-cutter banker out of central casting. This is a guy who is much happier going home after a day of work and having a bucket of fried chicken and an orange juice and watching Seinfeld reruns than he is going out to Michelin-starred restaurants or a swanky club. To me, his massive social awkwardness — the fact that he would go to a dinner party, and sit next to a stranger, and start talking to her very loudly about his dandruff problem — he had no idea how to behave in normal society."

Political and cultural ostracism has real world consequences. They've found their scapegoat and they're piling on. It's pretty disgusting actually.

You're using monads whenever you use Java 8 streams, Javascript promises, ActiveRecord and collection operations in Rails / Ruby; monads are everywhere these days. Monads are one of the handiest design patterns you can use; all you really need is a decent lambda syntax and you're off to the races.

there are many aspects of the beat movement, and i think many of them get muddied or hidden by the more publicized, overt statements of drug use and and sexual freedom. But, paired with a post-world war II era, its more clear why these are the more prominently remembered themes, as they are the exact antithesis to the prevailing american lifestyle at the time. The “something greater” is a revolution of how we think about sexuality, personhood, and basic human rights. While not necessarily the driving force, the beats were a loud voice among the crowd proselytizing basic human rights, specifically for example gay rights.
> Not necessarily. It might just mean that, on balance, people who were never going to employ a maid in the first place live in slightly less filthy houses.

But, like, there's no massive discontinuity in how likely people are to employ a cleaner (is there)? I'd expect that distribution to be a bell curve like anything else, with lots of people on the margin (and I'm pretty sure I was one of them), and the introduction of the Roomba shifts where that line is slightly.

> I can't actually see any evidence that anybody's even trying. It's not like driverless cars where we're being told every year that they're, like, 5 years away tops. Who is even working on this? As far as I can tell, nobody.

I'm not aware of anyone working on toilets, but I think that's the highest hanging fruit. You already mentioned Roombas, and I mentioned LaundryBot or whatever it's called; I'd expect us to progress gradually from there to things like dusting, window cleaning, oven cleaning and toilets in that order or close to it.

I disagree with the comment below you claiming there's no evidence to support your claims.

You don't have citations in your post, that's because it's a summary. There are huge amounts of evidence backing up your claim.

A bigger issue than the uselessness of this initiative by facebook is the empty, bald-faced PR "Hey, look over here!" distraction that they're using to cover their callous complicity in disinformation campaigns.

Like I say when I see python written in a Java style its verbose, and doesn't take advantage of much of the expressive syntax that Python provides over Java. You have given up the speed benefit of Java and have kept code that is nearly as verbose.

And don't get me started on the way people misuse Django.
Accurate breakdown. If you looked at my life as a 14 year old, you wouldn't have been able to picture me as a 28 year old. If you looked at me as a 28 year old, you wouldn't have been able to picture me as a 33 year old. In the last 5 years I found the top of my game where people didn't want a poor person there; got knocked down and it's been interesting adjusting to being chronically impoverished with issues increasingly piling up--relatives now comparing me to my cousins who can't hold down dish washing jobs. Meanwhile the tech giants are still trying to recruit me, and I know when I start work I'll be knocked out again because, like my last several high salary jobs in the BA, I've entered $1000s in debt with several years of poverty, causing rejection by coworkers (poor attire, untraveled). Crazy... miracle or relocation seem to be needed. I'm optimistic these last years will be a hilarious memory that toughened me up (in typical ign'nt American fashion, temporarily embarrassed millionaire).

I'm at my 12 year of every day bike commuting. Before I commuted 10 km each direction, now I'm at 6 km. If I have activities after work, I ride to them too. So my total ride length is a fair bit longer than what my commute is.

The public transportation network here in Stockholm is good, but wouldn't even consider cramming myself into a packed subway train or bus. Even at this time of the year when it's -5 degrees celcius and snowy I really enjoy my daily rides.

It cuts commuting time in half and I shave off another two hours of sitting without moving a day.

If possible, I highly recommend bike commuting. Get a good bike (with gears) and rack mounts for bags. Gravel/adventure bikes are fun to ride and work well on all surfaces. Supple 650b tyres are all the rage these days. They will give you plenty of comfort while sacrificing very little when it comes to performance[1].

Tomorrow I'll be going to the outskirts of town with work. Then it's 50 km. I already look forward to that workday adventure. :)

that is one that I occasionally struggle with. I am fairly liberal but I find the absolutist attitudes that many libertarians have to be naive and often repugnant. I don't think it's a stretch at all to place them in the same bucket as those other groups. They all have taken simple defensible ideas to extremes and tend to offer no compromises.
>White bread is nutritionally poor

Yes, absolutely. No one is arguing against that. But it's still less bad than straight sugar.

I live near an amazing bakery that does good sourdough bread with plenty of seeds, and I bake my own sourdough whole grain breads. The proximity of a good bakery and stores where I can buy good flour will seriously affect where I will even consider buying a house next time.
Like any situation in software, there are likely to be tradeoffs. I certainly wouldn't advocate for launching large rewrites except under extreme duress. That said, I'm not sure I agree with how you're characterizing the tradeoffs for using wasm here. For one thing, the library in question sounds like it is a few thousand lines, not some gargantuan project. For another, part of what's awesome about wasm is that it can be somewhat incrementally adopted inside an existing project. I would also point out that for many teams or projects maintaining a consultant's code is not going to be as cost effective in the long run, especially if that code has a lot of language or VM specific optimizationswork done to it. Part of my point here is that the addition of new tech (rust, wasm) isn't complicated where optimizing JS is simple, but that they both carry complexity cost and should be assessed in context as possible solutions to a performance problem.

I agree that rewrites are often taken too lightly, but if they address the original problems I think it would be more accurate to say that they are often needlessly expensive ways to solve problems that can also be solved in other, cheaper ways.

I'd also point out that in the case of many open source projects, finding an optimization consultant is not even remotely an option. For many of those projects, if performance is suffering, someone needs to step up and figure something out. Then the question becomes which approach can be applied by some contributor who's actually willing to do it. If you don't have someone who understands polymorphism in VM runtimes, I think in many cases you'd be well served by sprinkling some wasm on the problem. Of course this doesn't apply in all cases.

Sure, food producers, at least individually, have less money than big seed companies.

But don't kid yourself that the organic vs. GMO side makes a big difference. Often, its the same companies.

Survivor bias - literally.
Adding onto this, you should always use the lowest tech solution possible if it satifies the problem. Sometimes that solution is basically pen + paper + a whiteboard. Or installing dropbox. Othertimes it might be a google spreadsheet, or a wordpress site, at the end of the day the solution should be simple and straightforward if thats what the problem is. More pipelines / processes just means more headache to end users (and you), and more things to break.

I had my fair share of coordinating events during school for science competitions. One event we had was spread across campus and in areas with low wi-fi coverage. Our coordinator wanted all the results managed by google spreadsheets in real time. At the end of the day, it was completely unnecessary for logging results (PC problems, typing in broad daylight sucks, no power outlet for laptop, no wifi coverage, etc) and resorting to a piece of paper to write down competition results got the job done much smoother.

I've had to do IT for alot of my friends and families. The last thing I ever want to do is introduce them to a new piece of software, because its just going to be more work for me tweaking it to their liking and them learning a new software package. Not only that, they are just going to eventually install a virus anyhow. Then I'm going to have to reset their PC a year later, regardless of how well I teach them about safe practices on being online.

There's a japanese philosophy that revolves around these points made above, called LEAN (also, this is what agile development is based on). One rule is you adapt well proven methodologies and workflows first, unless the benefits of using a shiny piece of tech far outweighs its cons and risks. Another rule is to listen and understand, before you jump to conclusions. A 3rd rule is to eliminate waste, in development this is generally your buildprocesses / shiny tech / reliance on too many libraries.

TL-DR . Go low tech as much as possible if its an option. If not, the benefits of shiny tech need to outweigh its cons / risks. If you do pick a software package, pick one that's well adopted, easy to learn, and fits your use case.

Networking and cold calling is one way to do so. Find the companies that you would like to work in. Then find someone who's doing a job similar to what you would like to do (on linkedin). Call the main phone number for that company, ask to be transferred to that person and then proceed to do an informational interview. Ask them questions about the industry, how to get in, what their job is like and if they can recommend other people that could help you. Once you've gotten a good feel for company/industry, look for the hiring managers on linkedin - not talking about human resources. If you want to work as a sales man talk to Sales Manager. This is where you do your sales pitch and tell them about your skills and ask them "when would be a good time to talk about opportunities in your company". Don't ask "yes or no" questions.

That's the argument for mixed zoning: having offices (plus some retail, medical practices etc) within a 5km radius of home is entirely possible. It's easier in a dense urban environment, but as this post shows, you can even do it with single-family homes with a generous garden.

Of course there are still some people who need to use a car or public transport for commuting, especially if you're a couple both invested in specific careers (and can't, say, just transfer and teach at a different school).

>There are about 250 work days in a year in Baden-Württemberg, excluding weekends and public holidays. Of those I was missing for 34 days for vacations, being sick and doing home office. On 11 days I used public transportation, on 5 days a car. That leaves 200 days on which I cycled to work.

I used to have a standard 9-5 gig and then I'd work at a bike shop during the week nights and on the weekends. I started biking in after a co-worker suggested it.

I was pretty surprised. The ride was about 20-25 minutes, mainly through your standard US suburbs so not hard at all. I rode to work 3-4 times a week and then on Saturday or Sunday.

I didn't change anything in my routine except for biking. I lost about 8 pounds, my blood pressure dropped and my already healthy cholesterol levels dropped another 4 points. I had more energy when I got to the shop and then had more energy when I got home. I was more willing to work on various projects when I got home instead of plunking down in front of the tv after being exhausted from a long day at the shop.
Right! `>>=` can force sequencing. It doesn't for Identity, Writer.Lazy or State.Lazy, but it can. OK, but also Arrow and Monoid can enforce a (different sort of) sequencing relationship.

Neither does monad force a sequencing relationship nor is it the only thing than can force a sequencing relationship so I can only conclude that "What a Monad does is to force sequencing by creating a data dependency" is indeed one of those misconceptions!
The protocol is stable, only Linux client at the moment, but they are working on releasing other clients "soon" last I heard. I don't have any new update on what "soon" means, but I hope this year sometime, personally.
I don't really see it as especially fair. I had done my calculations and worked out that a house price correction was well overdue. Instead my taxpayer money was used to keep the prices artificially high, while the bankers kept their huge bonuses and I got next to no interest on the money II had saved for a deposit. How exactly was that fair?

I agree that it would probably cause innflation, but why not just repeat every ten years? As I say it would devalue money for everyone. It would also give a lump some to everyone. That is going to be positive for the people who need it the most and worst for the people that need it the least.

>Wanting to be profitable doesn't make a company intrinsically evil, that's what companies are for.

But they increased profits by intentionally misleading people and getting them hooked on unhealthy food. They helped themselves by hurting others. In plain English, we'd call that evil.

Let's admit that legal, profit seeking behavior, can sometimes be evil.

Furthermore, there's nothing ridiculous with going after bad actors in the past. I agree the main focus should be on companies doing harm in the present. But holding past actions to account sends the message that you can't get away with harming customers forever. It's a deterrent.
> Soon, people will realize that getting 90% of your caloric intake from protein powders is bad

This is obviously already true. You would get protein poisoning very quickly long before you hit your TDEE.

First off, do you need a study for that? I'd hate to sound insensitive, but perhaps common sense is a new Darwinism? There's a slew of shortcuts that will cut our lives short.

And for the record I eat a huge amount of protein everyday. At least 1 to 1.2 g / kg of bodyweight. I'm not at risk of protein poisoning (per another commenter) since I consume a large amount of water, fiber as well, and the sources are lean meats rather than powders. Although I admit a weakness in the knees for Quest flavored protein chips. All that said, I'll need a lot more than that to kill me.

Going back, what's common sense is to eat natural foods rather than avoid them. Processed stuff is the real danger, including meal replacement with powders. If people don't even have time to eat due to their jobs, I'd argue they've got a potentially worse lifestyle threat to their health.
On Firefox and Safari they seem the same to me, and either way I’d rather wait a few extra ms to get results that aren’t a bunch of SEO spam and ads.
No, R and Python are fundamentally different. I do believe we will see a shift in what they are used for though. Python more for the "deep learning" stuff, and R for more statistical, non-deep-learning work.
Interesting. I found the empiricism shallow. Its like Pinker is looking at a stock chart in a bubble and believing it will always go up. The issue is that the circumstances for next crash is not visible on the chart so no amount of ticks or chart analysis will reveals its future value.

So long as we can believe other humans are worthless, disgusting and categorise them as a disease worthy of eradication, every evil is on the table. I'm not sure we have progressed to make us less likely to do that.

Base price for the Tesla in Germany seems to be about €69k and the base price for a BMW 7 series about €88k, the 5er Series about €48k (prices according to google)

So the Tesla sits pretty right in the middle of the two. One could argue that it doesn’t seem fair to compare the sales figure of a €70k car against those of a € 90k car.
