Have you considered people don't like scooters in the city because it's another thing that's happening in SF where rich private companies decided to introduce changes without asking the people who lived there.

It's likely not entirely about the scooters themselves but what they represent and how the process has been implented. The city streets are funded by public money and the companies didn't treat residents with adequate respect or forethought before dumping scooters all over the city.

To me it is a physical manisfestation of startup culture and that's why many people hate them. Why consider the problems in advance, let's just do it and see what happens.
"That's against Net Neutrality"

Net Neutrality doesn't exist any more. Did you not read the article? This isn't hypothetical, it was allowed to expire as of today. It's no longer the law, ISPs can legally do whatever they want now, including a "Netflix QoS package".

I am admittedly not a lawyer, but I'm reasonably well informed on the topic and completely open to being corrected if you know better.
Because of the Stasi in german peoples republic or the Gestapo in the third reich. Two examples which only by coincidence happen to be Germany related, there are certainly many more examples like that.

I did not read the article, I admit, and won't do that as it is deliberately catch to attract click-bait. But is is so utterly bullshit to even phrase it in such a way.
Regulations exist mainly for protection of establish businesses to prevent new entry and limit competition, not for safety or taxes even really. This is especially true when talking about zoning, building and health codes which are largely designed to make it very very expensive to start new business to limit competition

Words have multiple definitions and "apotheosis" makes perfect sense there.

There's a good reason technobros (most, any, a few can turn a phrase) are not consulted as editors of writing meant to be enjoyed, not merely to inform. Complaining about "flowery and pretentious writing" is, itself, middlebrow crap (see? unpretentious and unflowery, no less) that leaches voice and delight out of a piece of writing--the act of writing is the performance of art as well as the performance of trade and letting words out to play is fun and good.

I just use Google Keep (for lists along with notes and todos). The whole post-it note feel took some getting used to, but I love it now.

That yet another NPM package proves to be pretty broken seems to be par for the course, but what especially shocks me is that on Hackerone the people working on this vulnerability can't reach the original maintainer and then say: "Doesn't look epic to me, also last publish was 3 years ago."

It doesn't look epic, yet it's a package that has over 1.2 million weekly downloads.

Also, fun fact, one of the dependent packages is react-input-select...WHY?

It can be done, but it's extremely painful. They basically break your jaw, then slowly force the pieces apart over a period of around 6 months. I had this done when I was in 7th grade, before I got braces. It was extremely painful at first, then kind of settled into a dull ache. There were 3 screws on the bottom and 1 on top. Made talking & eating very difficult (the hardware across the roof of your mouth makes it hard to swallow and enunciate clearly).

It was either this, or they'd have had to pull adult teeth to make room for the remaining.

The reason for age discrimination is almost never capability. The majority of older engineers, especially in more established professions like Civil, Mechanical and Electronic Engineering are obviously and demonstrably better engineers than younger ones. This comes from simple experience and time spent on a subject. In less established professions where techniques and processes are more in flux, not enough time is spent on any topic to produce true masters - in software, there are only apprentices and journeymen. Principal level Civil Engineers can expect to make about 120% more than juniors - so firing one principal saves a lot of money on the books this quarter. These companies wither and die as they bleed away core competencies and corporate memory.
The book Happiness by Design by the behavioral scientist Paul Dolan posits that experiencing a feeling of purpose (not the outcomes or evaluations of purposeful activities, but what they actually feel like in daily life) can be equally as important as the experience of pleasure in determining behavior and the quality of life. While different personalities can increasingly tilt towards one or the other, a truly happy life requires a combination of pleasure and purpose to take into account the diminishing marginal returns of both states.

It seems as though Mill's idea of giving space to "higher" pursuits in the utilitarian calculus is an earlier formulation of this idea. In a state where pleasure was easily accessible to all, purpose a sense of narrative would be hard to come by, hence the "No!" that he intuitively came up with.

>Why can't there be similar measures for scooters

Because when your only hammer is regulation everything else is a nail.

Edit: this isn't meant negatively. If you ask a painter what will make your house nicer they'll tell you to paint it. If you ask an organization that creates and enforces legislation to solve a problem they'll try to legislate it out of existence. Problems are solved with the tools at hand.

Netflix does pay for internet usage doesn't it?

So do I.

Sounds like it is already paid.
Your interpretation seems to be that if the car is ever in a "fully autonomous" state, then it's "fully autonomous". Thus if a "fully autonomous feature" is enabled (such as on the highway), that's full autonomy even if that feature is disabled automatically in other situations (such as in the city). Some people would interpret "fully autonomous" to mean end-to-end autonomy, sort of like enabling a "full encryption" feature on a chat application doesn't make chats on that application "fully encrypted".

[EDIT: Given the medium and proposition, the appropriate interpretation seems to be the narrower one.]

I don't think any of the things you suggested require Apple to be an MVNO, and being an MVNO is a low margin business since you don't actually own anything, and would drive even more strife with the existing carriers. Project Fi gets away with it because it's a tiny player that has no marketing or retail presence and basically exists for the nerds.
and in the case of the Jews as I highlighted, the violence perpetrated by the government underwritten by data freely given by the hand of those in jeopardy, writing their own death warrant.

On one hand, I think free access to data could be both fascinating and beneficial to the entire human race if used benevolently. But let's face it. History has shown us that any company with access to this data will eventually share it or sell it to someone less scrupulous and it will end up being used against those who gave it freely in the first place thinking that it was either safe or at least couldn't harm them.

I’d argue these APIs could be further minimized by using a struct with a void * and a size_t in it, along with bounds checking accessors.

This would eliminate most of the ugliness in the post-allocation calls, allow for the deletion of most error checking code in each library, and would harden BMP parsing “for free”.
The laws aren't about protecting the honeless against unsafely prepared food. The purpose of the laws is to make it more difficult to provide meals to the homeless.

Localities that pass them do so to encourage the homeless to move to another jurisdiction where they can more easily get food.

When is Tesla going to bite the bullet and issue a full recall so they can retrofit all existing Tesla cars with LIDAR?

They are still claiming on their website:

>"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 without LIDAR that simply isn't true. Either the accident rate is going to accelerate, or their efforts to push out "full self-driving capability" will stall. And from what we've seen from this company so far, I'm afraid it's going to be the first. A recall to retrofit LIDAR is the only way they can save themselves from their marketing lie. They need to bite the bullet and fess up.
Simplifying - guilty as charged. Please show me a statement that is not. But agreed there are limits to how oversimplified things may be portrayed. I sometimes grant myself some leeway in search of a larger picture however, when I assess that someone applying some philosophers charity might find value in it [0]

The main difference between those "Utopian dreams" I refer to and my own suggestion is that they hitch hopes on some technology or extraneous happening (the extent to which certainly is debatable), I just wish we would put ourselves and our own moral agency in the drivers seat more.

I'm curious to see if they tried to keep the ink surface area of each number the same. If not, maybe the bee's optics just average the card and go for the one that's least filled in? Or at any rate, some way to rank visual complexity rather than ruminate empty sets.

Taxi where initially regulated back when they where horse and buggies to for two main reasons. Reduce traffic on public roads, and increase daily incomes by reducing numbers of drivers.

Ride sharing services don't really change anything it's still extra traffic and over time horrid wages.
Where do you draw the line. Equal protection is far more important than ensuring 6 year olds access to the free market.

Would Starbucks be immune from health inspections and the other standard obligations of running a food business if they simply put a 5 year old as a figurehead CEO and had the COO run the ship?

I'm not trolling. A company is obligated to maximize shareholder value within the law. It's like AAPL and GOOGL's tax maneuvering with the double Irish/Dutch sandwich techniques - unless they are illegal a company can be sued for not doing them.

edit: seriously, and how do you define "stand" ... can a 6 year old have a fleet of food trucks? what if they unintentionally (or intentionally, if you actually have spent time with 6 year olds...) adulterate the food and harm people? Can they be tried as adults? This is a silly controversy to whip up indignant people that aren't willing to think the issue through sufficiently. It's below the dignity of this forum, such as it is.

edit 2: to explain to downvoter(s) ... part of the obligation of writing laws is to prevent abuse. It's hard, and you have to consider aggressive seekers of loopholes. In a better world, and with better people you'd avoid having any law in the first place and leave it to the discretion of local authorities. But if that's the case, the downside is silly exceptions like this when local authorities judgement is something you disagree with.
Couldn’t Apple get away with it because they’d need no marketing? They have their stores, Apple.com, and could accept Apple Pay as payment. The sales channels exist, the payment infra exists, and I imagine the systems/ops infra exists as they double down on their own data centers for iCloud.
> Authoritarian has nothing to do with the right.

Even to the extent that thst can be said to be true, it's not relevant; I didn't say Nazism was right-wing because it was authoritarian I said it was both right-wing and authoritarian.

> Socialism is all about social engineering of the population

No, it's not.

> national socialism makes it in the favour of the people with right blood,

The idea of “right blood” is a right-wing, classical conservative idea that is foreign to the left.

That's one of the thing which distinguishes Nazism as a right-wing ideology.

> The right are libertarians

No, the right are conservatives. Libertarianism has nothing to do with the right (there are both right- and left- libertarianisms.)
Seems like a viable idea. Do you have any presentable results yet?
> But it's not. North America and South America are just as separate as Africa and Eurasia.

Could you clarify that? I understood that as both cases are separated by a channel (Panama vs Suez), or did you have another meaning?
That doesn't say anything about engine damage though. It just comments about the obviously wasted fuel during the idle period.
> “The United States is simply making a shift from pre-emptive regulation, which foolishly presumes that every last wireless company is an anti-competitive monopolist” Mr. Pai said

No need to presume. Most of ISPs are. So US is making a shift from having some (not even sufficient) safeguards, to letting those monopolists abuse their monopolistic position to fleece their users left and right and limit their choices. Too much weasel wording Mr. Pai?
To do that you need them to break rules. The rules say no lemonade stands. So any sanction needs to come throught public shaming, not anything they could take to a tribunal.
most towns don't have a choice, which you know.
That doesn't sound very plausible to me. There's a big scramble for the top 4 every year.

You are fully correct. The reason SF don't address it, IMO, is that it's a no win situation for them. If they clean up the homeless they'll be forced to make tough choices and enforce public order against people their stated ethos which tells them are oppressed and deserving of unlimited compassion. If they do the right thing and clean the place up there will be a backlash from activists. If they do nothing at all then they don't have to make tough choices, don't have to face backlash, and the frog continues to slowly boil which will be the next administrations problem.
I think this is a general phenomenon in finance/valuation and I'm sure someone has studied it.

Even when the value of something has fallen (as measured by market comparables, ability to generate incomes like rent, etc) people become anchored to a valuation and think they'll get the price they want if they just hold out a little longer. There's something psychologically difficult about accepting that you aren't going to get the price you want for something; it requires an act of "letting go" that can be hard.

You see this all over the subprime crisis, banks had tons of toxic debt but didn't want to "book" their losses by selling at whatever the fair-market price was that day.

I'm reminded of that old saying from finance, "The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent."

Slightly tangential question. I ride my electric uniwheel on the side walks but sidewalks in my city sometimes have huge potholes so I have to be constantly watch potholes so I don't trip over and lose half of my teeth.

This is why I like the electricity metaphor for Internet access.

You pay your utility bill every month for electricity (probably a base rate, and a fixed consumption rate). Does your utility then go to the provider (A local green power source) and demand they pay the utility as well, since 60% of the requests in the region are for their power? (users opting into to green power on their bills?)
You're right, there was no direct CIRCLE or BOX or other easy BASIC commands on the 64 unless you had a Simon's BASIC cart or something similar.

That said, I didn't have any trouble doing graphics on the 64 with PEEKS and POKES that was good enough to get one of my screens on the cover of Run Magazine. It wasn't easy, but once you got your brain around it, I remember it being pretty fun.

Sound, however... no argument there. But that could be because I've never been musical in any way whatsoever. Never understood notes and scales and such.
Most VCs are running a lifestyle businesses (ironic). I’m going to guess that some of the larger platform VCs are pulling the numbers up so remove those and the picture becomes much more bleak.
> the incentives of people inspecting open-source code probably align better with my own interests than the incentives of Apple.

The incentives of any people are: earn enough money for a peaceful existence.

When Heartbleed happened, it turned out that only a handful of people in the entire world have the expertise to do a full audit of the OpenSSL code. And their work is ridiculously expensive. And the audit didn't happen until someone paid for it [1] (I'm not entirely sure it ever completed [2]).

People may actually have less incentives to inspect open-source code because there's always the question of life, money, time, work-life balance etc. etc.

Quoted exactly right, it will not be exploitable. However, this amounts to declaring which input is disallowed, generally not a good idea. It is preferrable to declare which input is allowed.

In this case, matters are worse because without knowing which shell we are running under and which cat we are executing it is impossible to know the complete list of dangerous characters. (In fact, if some sloppy sysadmin have a dot in the search path, the cat binary might even be attacker uploaded.)

(The fact that cat is even in there is of course doubly insane. They start an extra process just to make reading the data slightly more complicated.)
