We'd cut fatal crashes by a quarter, for far less then the cost of equipping every car with LIDAR.

For some reason, this idea never gets traction with the self-driving crowd. It may be because safety is not their first concern - watching Netflix while your car drives you around is.

My "blue bertha" decks were 40% to 45% lands. They were usually 100+ cards and consisted almost exclusively of 6+ casting cost creatures. These were only used for fun, mostly for other players to test their new decks against, never in any competition.

Having more than 35% lands leads to the very mana flooding complained about in the root comment.
nah, thankfully technical debt has been solved.
This is generally seen as the main flaw with the games core design. Most other currently successful trading card game (mainly Hearthstone) with mana resources have gone the route of providing a consistent source of resources per turn. This approach does significantly reduce the variance match to match and leads to a lot less of the "feel bad" moments of getting flooded or screwed.

That being said I personally find the variance that Magic has when it comes to mana resources to be more interesting than the alternatives as most of the newer card games have abandoned the idea of having mana resources(lands) in your deck all together. I think the lands are one of the main things that makes Magic an interesting card game.

One interesting alternative to lands was from the World of Warcraft Card game (spiritual successor to Hearthstone) which allowed you to play any card from your hand face down as a mana resource. Although they completely did away with this in Hearthstone so they could limit the deck size and the reduce the number of duplicate cards that were needed in each deck.
But then you're light enough for air launch or beam propulsion to be viable.

Looking at the article in depth I was able to find this quote

> Fluharty questions the grounds for the separation of Maria and her children. She said her client walked up to the border and turned herself in to immigration authorities, which contradicts ICE's claim that she was arrested after crossing the border illegally.

This is also complicated by the fact that Maria falsely claimed US citizenship and thus is barred from entering the US for life.

Do you have a case of someone not barred from entering the US for life has their children separated from them?
The asians will still get rejected. They're not rejected for racial reasons. They're rejected because they submit uninspiring, cookie cutter applications en masse. This may be because of something in the asian culture. That's outside my expertise.
That's actually somewhat heartening. If the majority of "influencers" (what a ridiculous word) are like you, doing it for fun and honest expression of opinion, it means we can trust popular opinions more.
"real-time approach for mapping all human pixels of 2D RGB images to a 3D surface-based model of the body."

"Our work shows that one can efficiently compute dense correspondences between 2D RGB images and 3D surface models for the human body. Unlike common works in human pose estimation that operate with 10 or 20 human joints (wrists, elbows, etc), this work accounts for the entirety of the human body, defined in terms more than 5000 nodes. The resulting speed and accuracy of our system accelerates connections with augmented and virtual reality. Earlier works on this problem would require computation in the order of minutes, initialization by an external system e.g. for human joint localization, while being particularly brittle. DensePose operates at multiple frames per second on a single GPU and can handle tens or even hundreds of humans simultaneously."

sure they used upper bits of addresses that the hardware of the day ignored, pretty predictably the very next hardware release (68020) supported 32-bit addresses potentially breaking just about every mac binary (initially they faked it out with a PAL in the address path, they eventually faked this out in the MMU resulting in a bit of TLB thrashing)

This was definitely a case of someone not planning to be successful and not looking far enough into the future
A human could also have attempted swerving to avoid the accident. The question that I feel can't be answered is how visible the pedestrian would have been under the conditions and if there would have been time to take action.

Entering the US illegally (the first time) is a misdemeanor, which is a pretty small thing, so previously that wasn't considered a good enough reason to separate families. They were mostly referred to civil deportation proceedings instead of being criminally charged. Entering the US to apply for asylum isn't illegal, but it seems at least some have been charged and their children taken anyway. e.g. https://twitter.com/PeterWelch/status/1008443579876958208
I find this one interesting. I rarely drive in the city, so when I do the distance in queues seems pretty crazy. But at some point I stopped caring that people cut in in front. The active cruise control keeps my distance now (apart from when we're stopped) and often people will use that gap. But... so what? Let them and keep your distance again. It really improves the experience.
So that was totally my initial reaction as well; I just didn't feel like dwelling on it. :P

I'm treading lightly here because this is a sensitive subject, and I am somewhat personally involved [0]. But the discussion here is missing important history that shapes this problem that others casually dismiss as "silly". Please, educate yourselves on the history of this area before making flippant comments.

You can't understand this problem without understanding the Greek Civil War and former Yugoslavia post WW2. The facts are disputed so rather than try to play historian on a subject on which I am biased, I encourage you to read the wikipedia page [1], and especially look for information regarding Slavic Macedonians, separatist groups that wanted to take Greece behind the Iron Curtain, and the claims made to a large chunk of territory within Greece by the separatists and by Greek communists specifically around the region we call Macedonia. Keep in mind that our current government openly calls itself the Radical Left Coalition.

Reach your own conclusions about whether Greeks should consider this a silly matter.

Superficially maybe. My impression is most of the instability was countries with govts with too weak an effort to transition from an agricultural society to a goods and services centered one, this resulted in an ill advised call for land redistribution and other unrest rather than making education necessary for all kids.

It strikes me as intriguing that people think there was ever a "severe backlash" over Pocket, let alone that it was what would have caused Mozilla to buy Pocket. Why would they not have bought it right away if that was the case? For that matter, why would they have bought it at all?

I fear you're vastly overestimating the effects a few people had on Mozilla's decision to experiment with, then buy a company that could help them potentially gain some actual influence over content-makers and the ad industry, and hopefully reduce their utter reliance on Google's money.

At best, the only thing the criticism over Pocket accomplished was to hasten Mozilla's pre-existing desire to develop these kinds of features as (what became) Test Pilot extensions.
There is an endless debate among historians, AFAIK, about whether events are due to structural (that is, systemic) issues or due to personal agency - the 'great person' hypothesis.

You are talking about science, which if course is one narrow domain; and even in science, I tend to agree with you but if there were no paradigm shifters (using Kuhn's model) such as Newton, Darwin, or Einstein, would we have made those discoveries? Would the whole course of research in those fields have changed? Changed to where we are now? Soon after those people? At all? If it's inevitable, why weren't those things discovered outside Europe? Was the Enlightenment, the foundation of the scientific revolution, inevitable? Again, if so, why not elsewhere? Why not 1,000 years earlier?

In geopolitical matters, would the world be the same without Napoleon, the founders of the U.S., Lenin, or Hitler? What about Admiral Nelson? What if someone else was U.S. President on 9/11? Clinton? Trump? Would the world be the same without Moses, Jesus or Mohammad?

My point is not that I know the answers, but that it's not so clear cut that outcomes are due to structural reasons.

> In other parts of the world you can transfer between accounts in almost real time

Real-time transfers under $5,000 are free between most American banks. For real-time irreversible transfers up to any amount, the Fedwire system is available. Most banks let large account holders send and receive domestic wires for free. ACH is used for low-cost, gross-settled transfers--it is the cheap, reversible option.

This myth of slow, expensive bank transfers dies slowly.
So the solution to:

is to manually add the lines:

}
}

to the Gradle build script? Sounds like Swagger is inserting itself into the complexity spiral dominated by Spring, Gradle, and Apache Groovy.

I work at Google on a product driven by ML doing ranking and regression tasks. Can confirm, very relevant. That said, ML is usually superior to the rules and heuristics systems we've been able to come up with, so we take on the debt once we stop being able to improve our heuristics, but only once we've tried really hard at the heuristics such that we have a baseline quality bar to beat. That justifies the effort, but it's still a lot of work to be vigilant and keep an eye on shifts in signals, unintended dependencies, good metrics that mean something, etc..
sure we know the rules: laws of physics on which chemistry is based.

if a random mutation produces a protein that cannot act as a catalyst for a given chemical reaction that reaction won't happen and that can make a hell of a difference to the the organism that had everything else setup depending on that thing to happen, decreasing the odds of survival (which often simply means not even survive for long enough to develop).

There are so many constrains at so many levels, many we know of, many are in plain sight, many are hidden, some we know since long time, some we have yet to discover. There are so many things we don't know, but pretending we are completely oblivious about the rules of the game is a stretch.

The sheer complexity of it all is mind-boggling, but that doesn't mean the only reasonable approach is just to give up.
So far every time humanity has thought that we've reached our limit in understanding and that only the existence of a deity can explain the next step, we unveiled the next layer of the puzzle.

Even if a deity does exists, it doesn't appear reasonable to expect that we've finally exhausted all there was to learn and we finally found the truly unexplainable. We no longer have to posit the existence of a deity to explain our diurnal cycle and other everyday miracles, because we now know; we convinced ourselves that what seemed utterly incomprehensible to our ancestors (who we have no reason to assume less intelligent individually than us) is to be attributed
to simple celestial mechanics governed that rules that no longer seem that incomprehensible. We moved our questions to the next layer, to the why those rules exist: what did set planets in motion etc; if you want, we never really "answered" the question, we just pushed it one layer further, and in the process we uncovered so many new beautiful layers of our reality.

If you try to account for it, it's not much time at all. And you're improving traffic flow by providing a means to change lanes (a bit more) safely. Most people "cutting in front" are actually just in search for a spot.
> I don’t buy the argument that it adds overhead. In fact I’d say it explicitly reduces overhead

At the very least microservices add infrastructure overhead and network latency.

In terms of everyday development complexity, instead of 1 project for a monolithic application you now have n projects, one for each microservice, which is fine if your organization is large enough and sufficiently well-organised to adhere to a "One team is responsible for each microservice." organisational pattern.

If, however, your developers find themselves juggling multiple projects at a time and having to run several microservices on their local machine in order to make a change this might indicate that either there's an impedance mismatch between the communication structure of your organization and the design of your product (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_law) or that your application simply isn't sufficiently complex yet to warrant the use of microservice patterns.

> In other words, I think good hygiene would say defaulting to microservices is the right idea

Good hygiene is possible without microservices, too, just as microservices can be used to build the worst kind of monolith: The distributed monolith.

> If people use the term “problem solver” to just be an ambiguous bucket of unlimited complexity by virtue of expecting people to “just solve the problem” no matter what the impedance mismatch between their skill area and the problem area, then it renders the term “problem solver” meaningless, and will just lead to a big mess of dysfunction.

I suppose it depends on how an organisation manages and breaks down tasks. If for example you work on a user story level a single developer can indeed be responsible for implementing a complete story including all aspects that might be involved. "Responsible for" doesn't mean "You have to do it all by yourself.". If you have a particular problem ask a specialist and ideally everyone involved will even learn something new in the process.

When viewed from an impedance mismatch perspective the front-end / back-end distinction in some ways is quite arbitrary.

The prototypical example of impedance mismatch is the one between object-oriented programming and relational data.
However, most would expect back-end developers to be both skilled in - say - Java and a relevant SQL dialect.

The impedance mismatch between a front-end technology such as Angular and a back-end technology such as Spring (both of which make use of similar patterns) is much less pronounced than that between SQL and an object-oriented language.

It's unclear to me why human drivers should be considered unable to adapt to more "tentative, wary" drivers on the roads. After all, humans vary quite a bit in how they drive. There are plenty of cautious drivers already out there.

Is there a reason why the /newest queue is absolutely full of these stories? Does every domain-specific news site have some mandate to carry general interest stories matching a particular narrative?
Yeah, I'm honestly perplexed as to why anyone would follow any of these people. I'm on the various social platforms to varying extents. I use Facebook but primarily interact with friends an family. Ditto with Instagram, but I also follow some people I don't know; a few great photographers, seph lawless (photographs urban decay), the folks with the dog and cat they take camping, etc. No part of me is interested in following someone who is a celebrity for celebrity's sake, let alone a person who is ONLY a celebrity because they're attempting to monetize their following. I don't mean that would explicitly turn me off (although it probably would), I mean, I don't see the impetus to follow in the first place. What value or enjoyment would I get from content that is without value?

>3rd Tesla autopilot fatality happened at 210,000,000 km

That 210 million km (130 million miles) number is just flat out wrong for that time period. That number originally comes from Tesla's public statements after the first fatality in the US. That was close to 2 years before that 3rd fatality happened. Tesla should be well over 1.5 billion km by now which would bring the fatality rate to down below 2 per billion km.

Well, I've read that it's actually gone a bit down from it's peak (some sketchy estimates put the active player base at 12 million, down from a 20 million peak), as games such as Hearthstone and fatigue eroded the playerbase, but Dominaria did bring some people back and it's on the upswing again - and with the new Hearthstone-like client they might get back to 20 million again.

The fact that the market places near-zero value on feeding poor people rather than exactly zero is not a ringing endorsement of its priorities.

Also, I'm not at all sure the value proposition they see in being charitable in the tail of their price grading (i.e. no terminator genes) is market-driven. It could quite plausibly be driven by fear of government intervention -- or even, possibly, compassion.
I've similarly included my key in the initramfs, until I noticed the initramfs file in /boot is world-readable. (On Linux Mint.) I'm a bit over-paranoid maybe, but I don't want a compromise of my user account turning into compromising my keys. Have you had that issue, and fixed it cleanly? (I could just chmod, but I don't want to have to remember.)

For now, I just enter my password twice -- once for GRUB to load Linux, then again in Linux's early boot. I've been tempted to implement some way for GRUB to pass the key to Linux in RAM, avoiding the need for a key file.

You forgot to mention the slow build times when using Gradle. If Android Studio is too heavy for his laptop then Gradle's hardly going to be much lighter.

>People purchase quality products and services,

Sadly, I don't think that's true. The overwhelming drive behind most buying decisions is price. That's why there are entire categories of consumer goods where you literally can't buy something well-made. Try to buy decent aligator clips, thumb tacks, a well made oven - the list goes on. Cheap and shitty drives good and well-made out of the market every time.
