I cannot say much about AzPainter, sorry.
Libmodule is designed to be flexible enough in managing events, so if you are writing any event driven software and that event exposes a file descriptor, you should be able to use libmodule without any issue.

Indeed, i recently added bsd + osx support in libmodule (https://github.com/FedeDP/libmodule/tree/kqueue_support) even if it is not yet in master.
It builds, but I still need to properly test it; expect it to be merged sometime near this weekend.
Tesla cars don’t have LIDAR, Google’s waymo does. You’ll generally be able to tell if the car has lidar because you can’t quite miss it, it’ll be that big dome-like object on the car.
I would like to see a series of articles describing/teaching his client communication and organization process.

He illustrates that it takes about 50% of his time, and that sounds about right for my experience. However, he clearly has a system for managing his 50% that I don't have (but need).
> Who wants to invest in cryptokitties when the other startup has actuall revenue and sales

If you look at historical investment patterns, it's often the big startups with no revenue and no sales that raise the most money. It's almost a disadvantage to have revenue, unless it's growing meteorically.
The autopilot likely thought the other cars took an off-ramp and staid on the highway by following the left lane.

I'm surprised there aren't a marked (hatched) area at the junction though. But regardless, the car has to be able to handle even mis-marked or temporary roadwork.
Compared to the statement "sentences for men are on average 63 percent longer than sentences for women", I think one number is a bit bigger than the other.

There seems to exist three major influences that "dictate" the outcome of a case. Gender and race of the accused, and the blood sugar level on the judge and jury. If you build a prediction model where only those variables are known then you would likely get quite scary accurate results.
That is an absolute train wreck of a name.
For TV/Multimedia HDR makes much more difference than 4K in my experience.
I think the problem is that, as things stand[1], autonomous cars are an "AI hard" problem, in that you'd need to build something of equivalent general intelligence to a human.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI-complete

[1] One example of how things might change is if societies decided to build "smart roads" to assist AI drivers, and then banned non AI drivers from them.
Which he didn't, the title is "don't tell me".
> I don't understand how the Tesla couldn't see the centre barrier but it can detect when a crash is about it happen, can someone explain that?

AFAIK the AP focuses more on moving targets for collision avoidance, stationary objects are harder because there's so many of them you'll never hit since they're above or next to the road, but that's hard to tell until they're very close (can't see where the road leads to 100m away).
Is it possible to do this and have samba shares available on this VLAN and the standard VLAN at the same time ?
If you are a Silver Partner or better you don't have to pay to use Windows Server for internal purposes, including development and testing. It's not expensive to get that.
Haha yes users are idiots.

But as someone making mobile apps for over decade, "being elitist about it" is not going to accomplish anything. You'd think any rational mind would have no trouble figuring it out, and compared to what you're dealing with on a day to day basis as a developer, it should be a piece of cake. But people are stupid and are not magically going to wise up, and you're not going to change that.

UIs for the masses need to be as simple and foolproof as humanly possible, that's just the reality of it. Apple and everything they do is the best example of this.
As an American, now living in Europe I cannot understand the pushback against cashless systems. In Germany almost every cafe, restaurant, or bar requires you pay with cash. I understand there is a slight charge to the vendor when charging to a credit or bank card, but the amount of time and energy saved by having "exact change" every transaction should increase productivity enough to cover any costs.
If your company's business model is to license patents, then you should align your employees' incentives to that, give them money when patents are licensed. That's what your employer does.

If your company's business model is to build and sell products, and prevent competitors from being as good, and avoid getting sued, then it's beneficial to have as many patents as possible. So Intel also aligns its employees' incentives with with its business model, by giving an incentive to create as many patents as possible.
Tesla used to use radar and camera combo. Has this changed?

Docktorino: Real-time continious testing tool for your docker builds
At least is not named autopilot and hyped to extreme, if you check the Tesla reddit you will see that the problem is excused and the driver is using the car wrong.
I really don't get it.

My mom can use an iPad as her primary computer, and I can use an iPad as my primary computer on the beach on vacation, but why would I hate myself so much to use an iPad as my primary computer?

I think Apple's vision is--once again--completely wrong when talking about pro users.

It can't detect when a crash is about to happen. The driver manually pushes the brakes there.

I have only worked tangentially with self-driving systems but in general they are very bad at dealing with stationary objects - this is why it can't see the center barrier.

This article describes the reason why radar and stationary objects don't mix: https://www.wired.com/story/tesla-autopilot-why-crash-radar/
It's not just convenience. Human drivers make mistakes and die all the time. If every car in the US had autopilot and half the rate of fatal crashes (not perfect!), you'd save 18,000 lives each year.
Not right now, I've just done it enough times. It's often when I want to do a search with 6+ words and all of them are important. But because some of them are e.g. "C++ default constructor" google just gives me C++ 101 answers and disregards the rest of my query.

The searches had to do with real things as well as programming.

Are you sure? Your argument reduces to absurdity, because if a single life is never an acceptable trade-off for convenience, we should set a global speed limit of 5mph.
I'm not a Windows fan, but the Surface Pro like looks very attractive and super small and light.

Unfortunately, I need something that can run Primiere and Illustrator as well as the easy vim and terminals.
And then some SV startups decided to abuse people trust and named a lane assist feature as autopilot, put tons of marketing into showing how great the autopilot is and very soon we will no need to have a human driver.
Interesting. So it's only broken for a small subset of people, which explains why they never even bothered answering. I suppose it is tied to my account then, since various laptops and browsers gave me the same behavior.
I hope all fan boys that trust more a company instead of doing a real analyse, test of the product, start to learn to stop focusing only on one brand. They only use fancy argument. "It's more easy", "it's more convenent". "I like how the wallpaper is rendering."

Come on Apple failed with there proprietar hardware, we was not able to change anything and you want back the same things? Because it's more easy mean that you are a noob, that don't know how to use your computer, then stay on Mac.

It's better for you, and for us.
"You see, you have to stop looking at the people individually, and have to look the populace as a single entity."

I think all revolutions are started by tiny groups of inspired people, and the hoi polloi will follow them, or don't, based on the current general mood and the network effects they instigate.

That's also an inspiring thought. To make a change, you don't need to convince everyone. Just a tiny group will suffice, and if the dice fall correctly, everyone else will just follow along.

This, of course applies to both beneficial and pathological changes as well. The coarse grained group mind of the population is not familiar with ethics. That's why free speech and oppressing complete dick heads such as neonazis live in a delicate balance. A small group can cause harm to a society.
Yes, the Facebook equivalent of a circle is a list.

10,000 human drivers a day handle it just fine. Again the night-time video is poor and a human can pick up so many other subtle clues. I'd bet all the non auto-pilot accidents at this spot are from drivers cutting across at the last second.

But it appears the combination of lines and narrow barrier and the curve don't get properly detected by the car's algorithm. It's an edge case, but with the state of roads in the US and the lack of maintenance, I don't see how an algorithm can handle every possible case. I know lane markings are worn and faded all over my town.
How would that help? The car followed the left stripe (into the divider), what difference would it make if it were magnetic?
What level of autonomy does Tesla market their latest hardware as? So long as they never label it as being above SAE Level 2 (i.e. don't take your hands of the wheel or eyes off the road ever) then I have no problem with this tech. The only thing they need to fix then is the name of the product. They shouldn't be calling it autopilot as it gives the impression you can answer an email on your phone while the car is doing the commuting for you.

In my opinion Tesla and all other manufacturers should perfect their Level 2 tech (and not call it autopilot) and then jump straight to Level 5, even if it means it's 3 decades out. We can't have drivers sleeping at the wheel in level 3/4 cars with patchy software. And that's regardless of whether manufacturers can prove that their tech has markedly fewer accidents than often-failing human drivers. I'm happy to take the risk to crash with a sleepy fleshdriver, but I'm not ok with crashing due to a software bug. I think many share this sentiment - which means there is a double standard that setting the bar much much higher for autonomous systems than they will ever be for humans.
They have many cars passing those places, can't they improve the maps they have, in the places where the video inputs and Tesla maps will conflict decide to slow down and ask the human to take over, then analyze the issue and add is as a unit test.
and "hacker news apple fans boy" should know that before telling bs.

Also, I have a strong background in biology and biostatistics.
Right, which is why I used the “/whatever Tesla uses” in my comment (I should have just said object detection technology instead of LIDAR). I believe Tesla is using a combination radar and cameras and they believe this is as good as LIDAR. Redgardles, I believe that Uber actually uses full LIDAR and that crash still happened.

So the question still stands. Are all of these object detection technologies fatally flawed, or is it the software that is interpreting this data that is to blame?
Can't really filter out such things efficiently, so Cloudflare gets it, yes.

https://www.nanog.org/sites/default/files/wed.general.traffi...
1) Given Tesla has been using passive data collection wouldn't a well traveled road like this have clear data that there is a split road but nothing in the middle so geo-position should have stopped this?

2) How did the radar /camera not see the barrier.

3) Give their update capability I'm surprised this section of road hasn't been fixed or updated to stop 'autopilot' for this section.
Do you need to add dtrace to the key chain each time it's updated or do they just not update it like most of their command line software?
Any car with distance sensing cruise control or collision avoidance at least has some kind of forward looking radar tech, right? So it should at least be able to panic-break when noticing the mistake? It looked like the car had gone full speed into the barrier.
>APNIC's research group held the IP addresses 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1. While the addresses were valid, so many people had entered them into various random systems that they were continuously overwhelmed by a flood of garbage traffic. APNIC wanted to study this garbage traffic but any time they'd tried to announce the IPs, the flood would overwhelm any conventional network.

>We talked to the APNIC team about how we wanted to create a privacy-first, extremely fast DNS system. They thought it was a laudable goal. We offered Cloudflare's network to receive and study the garbage traffic in exchange for being able to offer a DNS resolver on the memorable IPs. And, with that, 1.1.1.1 was born.

Cloudflare and APNIC seem to both assume the traffic is going to now hit cloudflare. Trying to block everything but DNS makes no sense at all; how can/should ISPs be keeping track of which services someone chooses to run on their IP address?

Edit: Turns out Cloudflare aren't just running DNS; they're hosting a http/s webpage with instructions on how to use their DNS too, so you've gotta hope people aren't filtering: https://1.1.1.1/
Except when not - apparently this divider is frequently crashed into, by humans. Perhaps that is the underlying issue; combined with the softwarish happy-path mindset ("let's assume the road is adequately maintained, because that's somebody else's problem"), this gets lethal.
> Current autopilot technology just isn't ready for the roads yet (some of them like this one in the video constructed with gross incompetence)

I disagree. AP is ready for very common situations and acts faster/better than a human driver there (e.g. rear-end collisions). It's not as capable of judging some extreme situations as a good human driver yet. We'll have to fix roads in some situations, but we'll also all benefit from having at least collision avoidance assistance in the cars.
Interesting how the autopilot section on their website for the model s is no longer there as it was in 2016 yet the other items are still there[1].

Or on this page[2], Specifically the section "Full Self-Driving Capability" makes it sound like that car can completely drive itself.

4k is overrated. 27" 1440p is good enough, plus current GPUs are able to push 100+ FPS with such resolution (they fail miserably with 4k resolution).
Option-Click to close is a novelty to me and a very handy one at that... the number of times I’ve accidentally shot myself in the foot by selecting and accidentally opening maybe hundreds of folders is not something I’ve kept count of, but it’s definitely happened multiple times. I’ve been using OS X (now macOS) intensively since 2002 and I’ve come to think of myself as a “Power User”, but I’ve never known of the option-close trick. Thanks.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the car followed the bolder line instead of a barely visible one? Could it be sunlight + concrete + bad vision of the lane line?
Its a recent new server software and client for the StatusNet "fediverse". StatusNet and the protocols it uses are very old, and a small community of users have been there for like a decade.

Its a federated social network. It is like a cross between Twitter and email. Anyone can start a server and set their own community rules and guide lines. If you or someone on your server remotely follows someone they like on another server then your servers will federate and posts from both will be in the public timeline. Eventually you will have a full timeline of many servers. Though your admin can silence or outright block other instances. Most GS veteran admins prefer their users just block people, as full instance banning is an extreme measure and against the spirit of federation. This is also a future-proof approach to social networking because if your server and its admin are malicious you can either start your own or just move and you still can contribute to the same network of people as before.

Recently a guy named Eugen who goes by @gargon@mastodon.social made Mastodon and a patreon account to support its development.

It has a troubled history, as the early adopters of Mastodon were Twitter and Tumblr users from the far-left pro-censorship crowd. They didnt understand how federation worked but they were paying Eugen's bills so he focused on redundant administration tools instead of more critical fixes (its ok now tho). Many popular Mastodon servers for example cybre.space, witches.town(now dead), and others they maintained big instance block lists and they live mostly in a bubble as they did not agree with the hands off, self moderation (blocking individuals) approach of older GNU Social sites. This bubble is really small though and is not sustainable.

Now, even though Eugen and his audience might prefer Mastodon servers not federate with GNU social servers not every masto server uses a huge instance block list. Anyone can host a masto server same as GS.
But what happens when you have tons of self driving cars, and it starts snowing, do all this cars get stuck until the snowing stops and how can you clear the roads if the cars are stuck? (I am referring at a scenario where this are actual self driving cars and not drive assist systems with a human behind the wheel)
Indeed, that's what's supposed to be there. Alas, "do not worry about things that shouldn't exist but do, or about things that don't exist but should" is not a viable strategy on the road.
Turris MOX: Modular and Open-Source Router
I have made similar experience with my 13 inch iPad Pro. The hardware is just great - perhaps with an exception for the missing keys on the smart keyboard.
But what really holds it back is the software. Working remotely on a Linux box works around some of the restrictions - I have been struggling with various ssh clients, I really have to give Blink a try. But the iPad Pro could be the ultimate mobile device, if Apple would put a stronger emphasis on developers needs. A sandboxed version of termux would just be great - perhaps even a complete virtualisation app, which allows to boot a linux inside the apps container.
UK driver here. If self driving cars rely on lane markings for working out where to sit on a road, how does it work on country lanes or newly laid roads?
Even for data not delivered via their cache they'll get free peering with Google. But having cache servers at several locations reduces the capacity they need to peering points. E.g. in the UK, most traffic gets peered in London so having cache servers in Northern England reduces the bandwidth they need for their internal network within the country.

I don't think ISPs pay much for peering in Europe.
