An honest question: how these handle when you have to drop a "scatter bomb"?
>The problem is people use facebook because they have to.

It's remarkable how common this opinion is given its obvious shallowness. Nobody has to use Facebook. What are the consequences of not? You can't chat with your friends or view their selfies or see event listings. Or rather to do these things, you have to make an effort to use some other more private mode of communication like phone or in-person or classifieds or whatever. It's easier to use Facebook than to not.

That is an extremely far cry from "having to" use the service. The problem really is people are lazy, and use Facebook because it saves them time, effort, and energy. In most cases, people care about this saved energy more than they do their privacy.

> Are you saying that because humans are known to be falible, but technology can be made nigh-infalible, that technology should be held to a higher ethical standard?

Yes, not infallible, but I believe that to take our lives in the hands of machines, the technology must be at least on par with the best drivers. To be better than average, but for instance to be more fallible than a good driver, is IMHO still not a good standard to be ethically ok to sell self driving cars, even if you have 5% less death per year compared to everybody driving while, like, writing text messages in their phones. If instead the machine will be even a bit better than an high standard driver, driving with care, at that point it makes sense because you are not going to care about the distribution of deaths based on the behaviors.

Due to GDPR, you can't mail our support any more
I got the following from a hosting company today: "In order to tighten up security and streamline our support operations in preparation for the implementation of GDPR, we will be removing the ability to email in support requests. Email is not an infallible technology and there are instances where support requests have not reached our team."

Asking them to explain further they wrote back : "Email is not a secure medium and tickets often end up in the wrong account / place. Only by removing this can be ensure that requests are entirely submitted under the account in question and we can thus comply with removing all personal data."

I hadn't heard of a company doing this due to GDPR and it never occured it would be an issue for our own client support. Thoughts?

Humans don't have lidar and radar, but humans permitted to drive have optical hardware which is in all respects except simultaneity of inputs from different directions superior to that which Tesla is claiming is sufficient for full safe driving capability.

Much harder to imagine software surpassing alert human driving capabilities if it's not equipped with sensors offering better depth perception that could compensate for lack of general intelligence to process unfolding situations, visual anomalies etc. Harder still if the optical sensors are objectively worse than human ones in many lighting conditions.
yes and as google tracks more about the population does than any TLA and with zero oversight.
OK but if by saving 1000 lives a year required as a side-effect that you personally be among the fatalities, would that be OK for you? I hope not. Think of this as a technical corner case; so, the question is the soundness of the analysis—for example, the distribution of deaths and what that means for safety—and not letting various facile logic get in the way of that work.
Squatting is a more natural position for evacuating
I would agree with flu (which is a fat tail risk, eg the spanish flu), but not terrorism (these are small local events) and ebola (ebola has a very low risk of transmission, it is just that it is very deadly once transmitted).

But classifying risks is one thing. Worrying in your daily life to the point of opposing a public policy is another. An asteroid wiping out life on earth is an even fatter tail risk, but the probability is so low that it is not worth worrying about. People have not rational reason to worry about ebola, terrorism, or plane crashes.
Does anyone know if earn.com had another name prior to around November 2017?

I figured it was just spam similar to what this thread refers to because I only ever get crypto-related emails from it. If it wasn't for the more-premium-than-most domain I'd have already auto-spammed it

Edit: Naturally seconds after asking I find an email from Angel List saying 21.co rebranded to earn.com.

As it turns out I'd been added or at some point had added myself to an "Airdrop" list, which is a list of people interested in cryptocoins. Removed myself from that and unchecked "Receive emails for tasks below your contact price?" should finally stop getting emails about dodgy new cryptocoins. Successful rubber duck debugging

Ask HN: Platform/Framework for a small, secure Site?
Id like to implement a simple checkout, connecting to a payment gateway. The checkout flow is bespoke, perhaps 2 screens where a user selects some variables related to their purchase, during it there will be calls to a backend API. There will be a redirect to an EPG and redirect back post payment. There is no user-authentication (sign-in etc) required as the initial request will be validated as originating from a trusted source.

Does anyone have any recommendations on a language, framework or platform that:

- Has a good degree of out of the box security to ease OWASP compliance

- Requires minimal maintenance from a security standpoint. Eg doesn't use a whole host of third party packages.

- Is able to be deployed on Heroku, or hosted on a third party service with a CDN that covers asia.

- Isnt a single page app or part of a big e-comm framework

Sorry - a pretty niche request - suggestions / pointers are much appreciated :)
It's been fascinating to watch this startup pivot to find product-market fit over the past year.

You could say the same for trains though - they follow a track in a similar sense to Tesla's autopilot. Someone could perform a "prank" by putting something on the track in order to derail a train. How often do you see that happen? Painting a line on the road is obviously easier to do, and could also happen by accident, but I think the chances of any danger are extremely low.

Hopefully when we start removing the driver from cars with autopilot, they will be following some sort of under-road NFC-like guidance system rather than painted lines.
There's a limit to how quickly we think (I think I remember reading during drivers ed that we had an average decision making bandwidth of ~ 2^7 bits per second.) For most people there really isn't enough going on in their head that they couldn't just spend a few hours typing it out. If you want to see what happens when people type faster than they think then visit any online forum.

IMHO: good Direct Neural Interfaces probably won't be anything more interesting than the invention of GUIs. It will be neat, it will make computers more intuitive (via neural plasticity) and maybe let us directly share thought with each other (really neat! totally useless) but nothing really new will probably ever come of something like this. In fact, if it became popular I think it might make learning some things harder. Software engineering for example is entirely about communicating precisely (with others, yourself, and your computer.) If you live your whole life communicating telepathically you might never learn to communicate well.

I just listened to a podcast with Laurie Santos, all about her course on happiness research, which quickly became the most popular course ever taught at Yale.

It's always fun to point out the sharia rule (islam was created in a province of the Eastern Roman Empire) that you should use your left hand to clean your downside after using a squatting toilet, optionally using pebbles, and without looking - and thus by normal standards of interpretation - not anything else or in any other way. Oh and don't worry: it explicitly mentions you can wash your hands in water afterwards.

Needless to say, even the most hardline clerics are unwilling to follow this rule in present day.

It's one of those rules that is always conveniently left out when muslims defend religious rules. But in reality some people actually do this. There was a recent court case in Egypt when a chef insisted on doing things this way and that this -and not washing hands afterwards- should be enough. I don't even know how the court case went but I doubt the guy still has any customers.

(incidentally this may be why there is a sharia rule that you should -only- use your right hand for eating, greeting, opening doors and it's attempting to further insult slaves by calling slaves "those owned by the left hand")

(it would probably be worth pointing out that when one does not have the availability of modern toilets and toilet paper this is probably a good way to significantly slow the spread of several very serious diseases. It won't stop them, of course)

Everyone talking about statistical evidence should take a look at this NHTSA report [1]. For example, "Figure 11. Crash Rates in MY 2014-16 Tesla Model S and 2016 Model X vehicles Before and After Autosteer Installation", where they are 1.3 and 0.8 per million miles respectively.

Unfortunately, this report seems to have shot itself in the foot by apparently using 'Autopilot' and 'Autosteer' interchangeably, so it leaves open the possibility that the Autopilot software improves or adds features to the performance of fairly basic mitigation methods, such as in emergency braking, while having unacceptable flaws in the area of steering and obstacle detection at speed. In addition, no information is given on the distribution of accident severity. It is unfortunate that this report leaves these questions open.

Even if these claims are sustained, there are two specific matters in which I think the NHTSA has been too passive: As this is beta software, it should not be on the on the public roads in what amounts to an unsupervised test that potentially puts other road users at risk. Secondly, as this system requires constant supervision by an alert driver, hands-on-the-wheel is not an acceptable test that this constraint is being satisfied.

Advice to Googlers: stop working there. You are the smartest dumb people I know. Much like Oppenheimer you are running around, thinking you are doing something good. Wtf?

AI, robotics and cloning are going to create a very, very bad world where people mean nothing. Google wants to run that world.
I agree that the comparison with all motor vehicle deaths is misleading, and that we ought to be looking at accident rates for Tesla cars with Autopilot on versus off. That Tesla hasn't answered the latter despite having the data to do so is concerning.

However, I don't see the evidence for the claim that "Tesla's Autopilot is probably 100x more fatal than other cars". The flip side of the complaint that Tesla hasn't released information to know how safe Autopilot really is, is that we don't know how unsafe it really is either. If this is merely to say "I think Autopilot is likely very unsafe" then just say so, rather than giving a faux numerical value.

As for the claim that self-driving cars can't work without "fundamental infrastructure changes" and everybody working on self-driving cars should be fired, I think you're talking way beyond your domain of expertise.

That’s funny. I have been using the same Gillette Sensor for 20 years. Off brand blades were available locally in the USA, but those dried up. Via eBay, I ordered Gillette branded blades “made in Germany” for a fraction of the cost of local Gillette blades. I figured the EU was not ripped off as bad as the USA for razor blades. Maybe that is not the case?

That razor recently broke, so it’s off to eBay again to find a replacement, since I have a box of blades. I refuse to pay for rip-off blades.
"drove head-on into the gore point"
"drove right into the side of a huge truck"

A lot of human-led accidents sound just as silly when stated this simply, so it's not relevant to the comparison.

More to the point, I think each of the deaths would be exactly as tragic, no more no less, if the sequence of events was complicated.
