Well, it takes 11 days from Halifax to New York - so works about at about ~$100/night for a room with food included. Cheaper than a lot of hotels.
Discussions of driving among lay people are generally useless and interminable, due largely to the supercharged Dunning-Kruger effect that driving for whatever reason produces. No matter where you are or who's talking, the speaker is always a good, careful driver, other drivers are reckless morons, and the city in which they all live has the worst drivers in the country.

Everyone everywhere says the same thing. It's information-free discourse.
> It would be even more preferable if workers across whole industries and whole sections of society together used their collective power to influence what the government can do.

Everyone in society is already part of one big union that can influence government - the electorate. Everyone gets one vote. If you try to force the government to do something it wouldn't do otherwise you're trying to get power beyond your one vote. That's why it's an abuse.
OK so you have a speeding loaded truck behind you that would not be able to break for whatever reason still want to slow down?

3 Ways How Blockchain Could Disrupt the Telecom Industry
That's what Tesla says but that's not how people are using it - and as people grow more comfortable with the autopilot, the less vigilant they'll become. I have this picture in my head where people are trying to recoup their commute time as though they're using public transport. I suspect we'll get there some day but today is not that day.

While the Tesla spokespeople are good at saying it's driver assist, their marketing people haven't heard - https://www.tesla.com/autopilot/. That page states "All Tesla vehicles produced in our factory, including Model 3, have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver." but as I noted above, we don't know how much of that safety should be attributed to the human. Tesla apparently knows when the driver's hands are on the steering wheel and I presume they can also tell when the car brakes, so they may have the data to separate those statistics. At a minimum, their engineers should be looking at every case where the autopilot is engaged but the human intervenes. They should probably also slam on the brakes (okay ... more gently) if the driver is alerted to take over but doesn't.

As an aside, just the name "Autopilot" implies autonomy.
> it's still safer than the average car (at least according to Tesla).

This is Tesla's big lie.

In all their marketing, Tesla is comparing crash rates of their passenger cars to ALL vehicles, including trucks and motorcycles, which have higher fatality rates. Motorcycles are about 10x-50x more dangerous than cars.

Not only that, they aren't controlling for variances in driver demographics - younger and old people have higher accident rates than middle-aged Tesla drivers - as well as environmental factors - rural roads have higher fatalities than highways. Never-mind the obvious "accidents in cars with Autopilot" vs "accidents in cars with Autopilot on".

If you do a proper comparison, Tesla's Autopilot is probably 100x more fatal than other cars. It's a god-dammed death trap.

And remember, there are several extremely normal cars with ZERO fatalities: https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/record-9-models-have-...

This is not a problem that will be solved without fundamental infrastructure changes in the roads themselves. Anyone that believes in self-driving cars should never be employed, since they don't know what they're talking about.
Well… it's certainly much more practical to decide "I'll only run applications I trust" than "I'll only ever visit websites I trust" or, in full generality, "I'll only ever use any application to process data whose creator I trust".

But I guess that's not really the point you're making, and of course, in an ideal world native apps would be no more dangerous than websites anyway…
IPFS – A p2p hypermedia protocol to make the web faster, safer, and more open
It still works in the sense that their app needs to use it. But AFAIK Instagram stepped up server side security a few months ago, and it’s now nearly impossible to use that API from a data center IP. There’s a big thread on it in the issues of that repo you linked, but I’m on mobile atm can’t find it.
Oh hi! Hope things are well!

Not hating on the Gradle setup at all — it made sense at the time.

I also like the tree approach, it feels clean. Plus the hash cache to avoid rebuilding things when nothing’s changed—faster and more robust than tools that use mod time.

Not entirely accurate, the Force Touch device uses a linear motor to accelerate a small mass to 'thump' into its housing. In principle it's similar to a speaker, but in implementation it's very different (a speaker voice cone never intentionally impacts its housing, for example).
This is what I use, and as far as I can tell it's better than a MacBook in just about every way.

Electric cars still impose a huge environmental cost since they need to be manufactured in the first place. And the batteries need rare earths which are, well, rare.

I'm more than enough familiar with poverty. In my country, $30 is a day's wage.

Let's say small packs cost $85/mo (as per $1k/year). Big monthly pack is $30. So weekly supplies in small packs are barely cheaper than buying in bulk for a month.

Do you really think poor people are that stupid? That's flat out insulting.

In my experience, poor people are fuckin great at managing money they got. Of course, some of them are barely functioning in a society due to illnesses or addictions. But there're plenty of well-off people who don't know jack shit about budgeting and live paycheck-to-paycheck.
I on the other hand do not touch type (very well), and regularly touch type function keys (F5-F12 while debugging).

I think it's scary too, but maybe for different reasons. It's a step towards building an experience machine [1]. Whilst I fully empathise with DBS as a treatment to otherwise incurable atypically negative mental states, much as I am on-board with VR enabling physically or financially limited persons to enjoy the full gamut of human experience, I baulk at the idea of this becoming mainstream.

Why? Because the implication of a 'happy button' in the hands of everyone and anyone horrifies me. Sure, you and I might have better things to do than to hold that sucker down and experience unending monotone bliss for the remainder of days, but how sure are you that the majority of humanity won't? How many lives might be wasted because someone's instinct was to go for immediate bliss instead of trying to make things better in the long run? It'd be the final drug.

"extreme levels of pollution" is not the same as a bio-chemical weapon.
What marks my biggest failure as my biggest failure is that there is absolutely nothing to be learned from it.
Indeed. Since the SDV controversy started, I do catch myself at non-driving behind the wheel: "was I watching the traffic at all, or did I divert all my attention to the radio for several seconds? Was I too busy with the kids' fighting to watch the road just now?" And that's with me trying to actually drive the car safely, to be aware of its operating envelope, other traffic, hazards, navigation etc.
Is the "Call Jony Ive" in the header picture a subtle stab at Apple? If so, well done.
What is the minimum time you guess it would take to have a city with only self driven cars that could just drive by following lines and other specific signals?

I do not think this will happen in an existing city for at least 20 years.

I can imagine scenarios where a glitch or something else could cause tons of traffic issues in a city with only self driving cars.

I am not against self driving cars, I don't like the fact that this startups arrived and push alpha quality stuff on the public roads, it will create a bad image for the entire field.

Let's say small packs cost $85/mo (as per $1k/year). Big monthly pack is $30. So weekly supplies in small packs are barely cheaper than buying in bulk for a month. Unless you pay day's diapers every day..

Do you think poor people are stupid and can't plan even a week ahead? They're getting paid weekly or monthly in most cases after all.

In my experience, poor people are much better at managing money than better off folks. I could see plenty of people who couldn't bother to order bulk of diapers and then store them somewhere. But poor people usually go the extra mile even for couple bucks.
> If that's your strategy then I'm screwd, I was always too slow on IQ tests.

I tried that for half a year, and it has some issues:

- Linux applications have a lot of trouble with the HiDPI screen

- Coil whine

- Shitty battery life

- Shitty touchpad

So as whatever is Apple doing is annoying faddy bullshit, it's still the better option, especially considering the XPS 13 cost as much or more than MBP.
It actually does - why do you think /dev/mem is more restricted than it was in 1993?
I run my own email server (for personal use, not corporate or anything) and maybe I've been lucky with my IPs so far but I don't have a lot of issue getting my emails through. Admittedly for personal email it might be a bit easier because most of my recipients already have me in their address book which probably helps getting through the filters.
But the description already included

> hard press on word to start selection ->

Perhaps I misunderstood though - is this hard press when the cursor is on the word.

I guess I just don't really see the problem it solves, it's just moving my thumb over the text I want rather than three distinct actions just to start the selection. Then I guess two more to change the selection and end the selection process? Whereas to select text I just long press -> move. Or for one word, long press.

Precision seems fine as I test it here, and if I want sub-word selections (rare) then adjustments seem like a reasonable approach. If the selection on iOS snaps to words anyway (second force press selects whole word?) you'd need this on both platforms.

I don't really understand how the android approach requires more interaction. Press & drag is surely less interaction than press (get cursor), drag (position cursor), press (select word), drag (move cursor), press (finish selection).

The only selections I generally want without moving "off" the keyboard is deletions, and that's accomplished just by dragging from the backspace.
I just mean I wouldn't refer to non-shared mutability as "good". You should aim for immutability by default and drop to mutability if it has a clear benefit which depending on the domain can be rare. Most of the time I'm optimising for developer productivity and reduction of bugs first; performance and memory consumption comes later if it's an issue.
That's fair game. I got the comments for being veggie and meditating. Others will have it for some other reason. Teasing is alright as long as it's not done again and again.

Believe it or not if you want to know what important things are happening around you you can just talk to people. They tend to not have any bias to push and can often give you a view that might not be the one held by the typical university educated upper-middle class metropolitan media journalist.

I think it would be so much better if we just talked to each other about things we care about rather than be told what other people care about by companies look to push agendas and make money.

FWIW, the term "neural lace" was coined by Iain Banks.

From Excession:

One of the exhibits which she discovered, towards the end of her wanderings, she did not understand. It was a little bundle of what looked like thin, glisteningly blue threads, lying in a shallow bowl; a net, like something you'd put on the end of a stick and go fishing for little fish in a stream. She tried to pick it up; it was impossibly slinky and the material slipped through her fingers like oil; the holes in the net were just too small to put a finger-tip through. Eventually she had to tip the bowl up and pour the blue mesh into her palm. It was very light. Something about it stirred a vague memory in her, but she couldn't recall what it was. She asked the ship what it was, via her neural lace.

~ That is a neural lace, it informed her. ~ A more exquisite and economical method of torturing creatures such as yourself has yet to be invented.

She gulped, quivered again and nearly dropped the thing.

~ Really? she sent, and tried to sound breezy. ~ Ha. I'd never really thought of it that way.

~ It is not generally a use much emphasised.

~ I suppose not, she replied, and carefully poured the fluid little device back into its bowl on the table.
Sorry I'm not trying to split hairs. I don't see why it wouldn't be practical on a macOS device (agreed that on a Mac today this is not possible based on the state of publicly available macOS software). Apple has been slowly moving that direction and IMO the only reason they haven't dialed it up to 11 is because they don't want to break everything including users' workflows. But they could release a state of the art macOS laptop ~tomorrow that squeaks like iOS from a security angle.

Anyway you're right that's besides the point now. My original point (rephrased to Linux) was that a desktop leveraging secure boot plus the recent work to harden the boundary between kernel and root plus something like (as you pointed out in the other thread) IMA could, I think, meet the original commenter's requirements.
Thats because all autopilot enabled cars, have the safety part enabled by default. Automatic Emergency Brakeing. Side collision avoidance, Lane detection etc.
Drivers not paying attention in non-autopilot vehicles is an increasing problem with the prevalence of smart phones. In places where it's illegal to text and drive I don't think you're going to get out of a ticket by telling the police officer "it's okay because Tesla was driving".

I do believe "it's still safer than the average car" because there's not a big tank of explosive - I'm most curious to hear what caused such a massive fire in this crash. But you're talking about the autopilot and it's statistically incorrect to say it's safer than the average car. It's merely safer than a driver alone - this should be no surprise as you'll find that cars with backup cameras and alarms don't hit have as many accidents while in reverse as cars without them.

Tried Dell once and didn’t like it. Dont remember exactly why. Plus the service to return the unsatisfying product was complicated.
Last time i checked there was still something missing in the xps linux system so it wasn’t an option and i decided to leave Linux as main OS after 20 years. MacOS is not better in general, mainly it just has different annoyances
e.g. less open and configurable - but therefore not changing things i got used to so fast as Ubuntu and the various graphical desktop suites (yes the superspecial tabbed window managers are more stable, but i dont like them) which seem to try new stuff i don’t need and like with every release.

I‘m based in Germany by the way, so my choice of products here might be different...
Not just the idea, but a large chunk of personal data via the quizzes.

I think this must be true. The greater our understanding of the world, and the greater our ability to manipulate the world, the greater the options available to humans and the more complex their interaction. The world has been significantly less predictable since the Enlightenment, and the rejection of the fixed socio-theological order that preceded it. Life in pre-modern Europe was very predictable - almost everyone was a peasant who followed the same seasonal cycle, and stood in deference to the same feudal and religious system.

Free markets also have no concept of human suffering; they centralise power with the most ruthless and exploitative, and so preference those human traits.
