>In CR’s testing, Model 3's braking distance from 60 mph was 152 feet, a distance that the outlet claimed is “far worse than any contemporary car [it has] tested” and was nearly seven feet longer than the braking distance than that of a Ford F-150.

Another article[0] in this thread has more:

In a recent test of various 2018 F-150s, Motor Trend recorded a 129-foot stopping distance for the 3.3-liter XL Supercab model, while an upscale Lariat trim made the stop in 10 fewer feet. For comparison, a Chrysler 300S tested by the same publication made the stop in 109 feet.

For comparison, a 2016 Camry Hybrid:

>Stopping distance from 60 mph is around 125 feet, which is average for the midsize hybrid segment...[1]

Car distance (feet)
Model 3 152
F-150 129
Camry Hybrid 125

I cannot agree more with this approach.

Herniated L4/5 disc 1.5 years ago where doctor said I will never be able to get on a bike or play sports or even sit and work. I do all of that now.

Spent 6-8 months just recovering with the help of NSAIDs and nerve pain pills (more helpful than generic NSAIDs).

But the key was to find the right physio/instructor who focussed a lot on improving nutrition (more greens and meat to lose weight) and just a TON of stretching every day - focussed on increasing leg strength, core strength and upper back strength. Losing weight and getting core strength + posture is all you will need.

I also switched to a standing desk - day and night difference.

You want to avoid information loss ("telephone games") and distorted information.

Openly discussing current affairs is not 'cherry picking', not even in a country where mentioning those issues until recently was taboo. This is now changing rapidly, mostly due to the upcoming elections.

I would rather claim the opposite to be true: discussing this topic while not mentioning these issues would be cherry-picking. Intentionally leaving out certain issues while discussing civil defence - which this brochure is about - is a recipe for disaster, the proof of which can be found in several areas in Sweden.

It is rather depressing to see that openly discussing current affairs is deemed to be 'cherry picking' and, implied in many other comments, one of the many -isms.

The BSD kqueue has similar problems, in a different event domain. The semantics of the interface and the mechanics of the data structures mean that an EVFILT_PROC event with NOTE_FORK will be overwritten by an EVFILT_PROC event with NOTE_EXIT for the same process, meaning that it is not possible to always correctly track the children of processes that fork and then rapidly exit, or of ones that rapidly fork multiple times.

Fixing this would entail letting go of one of the architectural concepts of the system, either that a filter+ident pair uniquely identifies an event in a queue or that a process only ever has one event queue. (Letting go of the latter also entails a further mechanism for polling multiple event queues.)
TL;DR rose tinted pro-nuke blurb suggests hyuge benefits in pollution reduction if only regulators hadn't made nukes un-economical with all sorts of costly environmental assessments. In ye ol' days when men were men and exchanged fireplace stories in the Bremsstrahlung glow of a warm pile, it was much cheaper but today tree-huggers and obsessive safety nuts drove the costs to the stars.

Urhm... perhaps nuke isn't that cheap after internalizing decommissioning, waste disposal and accident cleanup costs eh!
I think the 2 most important factors to nuclear power stalling were: 1) Cold War and the fear of nuclear, and 2) the Chernobyl accident and its supposed consequences (which time demonstrated were extremely magnified at the time, probably also due to geopolitical benefits). Then anti-nuclear activism took on -primarily Greenpeace and its impact strategy which made the news most of the time- and made it politically unfeasible to support nuclear anymore which also stalled public nuclear R&D investment.

Running (I started when I felt absolutely well). It increased my core strength. I spend 5-6 hours running every week. And to reach that point took me approx. 3-4 years.

"then yes they are also responsible, even more so if they directly commanded person B to commit acts of violence on person C"

If person A commanded (or otherwise extorted) person B to act, then it's a different situation. And it's already covered in laws against threatening and extortion.

I am asking about situation where person B can, with reason, and on their own will, ignore the pleading of person A for violence. Or what if there is no person B? Should we punish person A regardless?

"Like I've said before, freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences."

I strongly disagree, and I think it's misunderstanding of concept of free speech. The act of speech must be without consequence, if it's to be free.

People often give an example of somebody saying something to their employer and the employer firing them for that. This is a limitation of free speech.

Before making that argument, you should consider that in the communist regimes (such in Czech Republic), dissidents were often suppressed by being fired from their job. You're effectively saying that it was morally acceptable, and I disagree.
If 100% of their engineers are women then yes they still have a problem.

Android is wormable, and potentially not repairable by google.

For example, with a decent remote android exploit, I could distribute a patched Google Play Services to all vulnerable handsets which disables updates and then listens to my own command and control infrastructure for further actions.

The Swedish police force is both too small for the (growing) population as well as unprepared for the increasing violence these gang wars have brought to the country. If you want to read about it from the horses' mouth - the police union - you can do so here:

8 out of 10 police officers feel they rarely if ever have sufficient personnel for the task at hand. 8 out of 10 feel they can not fulfil their societal tasks sufficiently. 4 out of 10 claim that highly-prioritised issues get put on the back burner due to lack of personnel, the same number claim this stack is growing.

There is much more to be found on these issues, a quick search will give you enough if you're interested in the subject. I obviously am, living in the country and noticing the effects of these problems.

Local hidden variables have been ruled out, notably by experiments with Bell's inequality.

This means that quantum effects cannot be caused by some unseen property of the objects involved (e.g. if particles had some extra 'charge' we didn't know about).

The effects could be caused by some unseen "non-local" property, e.g. some property of space itself which propagates faster than light. A nice example is to model spacetime as a network (e.g. http://www.wolframscience.com/nks/p475--space-as-a-network ) with information/causality propagating along edges in the network. If most of the edges are short, and form a 3D lattice, we'd get the universe we're familiar with. We can then model quantum phenomena, like entanglement, by introducing some long edges, connecting regions of the network which would otherwise be far apart (the entangled particles).

Since there are so many possible non-local theories, with no way to distinguish between them, Physicists tend to prefer quantum descriptions of local, observable properties, since that seems like less of a leap of faith.

The problem to think in those `Apac`s as a better way to the prisional system in Brazil is that it cant be take in the whole country.

It's easier to keep the desired inmate's behaviour in an Apac because they select who they want (so, they can avoid someone who might bring trouble, an option that the entire system doesn't has); another point is the inmate's fear in going back to a "normal" prison.

I live in Brazil, and discussions related to Apac already happened in some groups that fight for humans right, and I've never seen one of them thinking in Apac as a solution to our prisional system.
I agree that it's a good idea not to rule out paid options just because you have to shell out for them. And certainly, paying for something will encourage you to make the most of it.

But I feel that, in a free market economy, there will always be people developing free-of-charge alternatives, so I'm not sure developers can be expected to charge for their products, if that will put them at an economical disadvantage.

The "if you’re not paying for the product, you are the product" quote does hold some truth, but is not universal. There do exist products and services that are free of charge yet do not do anything malicious with your data. But I do agree with the notion that paying with money is often better than sacrificing personal data.

The companies fault, definitely.

It is unrealistic to assume that the average person is going to know everything they need to to protect themselves against such a company, especially when they have billions in revenue and armies of lawyers to weasel their way through the spirit of the law.

Protecting the consumer comes in the form of regulation and precautionary principle. Regulate the ever-loving shit out of companies like Google in my opinion.

Publicly traded companies may have a responisibility to their shareholders, but they also have a responsibility to society, which I consider much more important.

He wins, Wikipedia looses, everyone looses.

"the Cross-Galloway fracas is spreading from Twitter, and threatens to damage the credibility of Wikipedia in the public eye." They are worried, but still. Nothing has been done:

You can do a startup, but grow organically. No one says you need to play the VC game with crappy odds and low chances of payoffs.

Alternatively, if you need to raise investment (once you have established the model actually works) there are alternative ways to fund the business (i.e. family investment funds who want to be your longer term partner rather than flipping it in two to five years)

I'd rather take a 50% chance on owning a smaller niche business (think Convertkit) that does a few million a year, of which most profit ends up in my pocket, than playing the VC game with low odds and hoping for a $100m exit.

The only ones for whom the odds are great, are VCs. They'll make back their entire fund on one or two investments as part of their portfolio and will pocket a healthy amount of carried interest as a result, on a massive amount of money. But they're not the ones slaving away. And their management fee makes sure they're always well compensated and living well.

This is backwards. Debugging is much easier in a functional language because you already have your program division done for you, and immutability makes it much easier to understand what's going on since you can compare function inputs and outputs really easily, and e.g. if you ever accidentally step past the part you were interested in it's always safe to "drop frame" and step forward again, with the same behaviour, whereas if your program is mutating state then that state mutation has now happened and you can't ever debug it without restarting the whole thing.

> How do you deal with the fact that your life is MEANINGLESS?

I do not agree with the philosophical idea of "Life is absurd because it's meaningless". Collective human constructs are what gives meaning to life. This meaning depends on what your society projects on you as valuable.

> How do you deal with the likelihood that you will suffer greatly at some point in the future, whether it be from cancer, or some other disease?

If you can't change it, don't worry about it.

> How does a day of 9-5 work, capped off with a horrible prolonged cancer treatment at the end of your life, not corrupt your mind?

Everybody dies. You may as well enjoy life, otherwise it's a complete waste.
You care about the things you love. The single "human-like" trait of my reasoning is to be able to love. I do not like the "human-like" term because it involves so many negative connotations. If God is perfect, I can not imagine him as "human-like" ;-).
Faith.

>There's nothing safe about a Cessna 172

I assume you have nothing to do with aviation. The Cessna 172 is extremely safe. In fact I'd argue that they're safer than commercial flights, because accidents are much more survivable. Safety depends purely on the pilot and the extremely well-documented maintenance routines. All accidents I've ever heard of Cessnas are caused by pilot error with minor exceptions.
