That is true, but it's because that point in time would not occur yet.
The question at this point in time is about standing, which is necessary for this plaintiff to be able to pursue the case.

Basically, is this actually the right person to be suing over this (it's pretty complex, and i'm removing a tremendous amount of nuance).

Plaintiffs bear the burden of proving standing. However, in most motions about standing and appeals of those motions, all facts will be assumed to be true.

This is because most standing dismissal is for "failure to state a claim on which relief can be granted" (FRCP rule 12(b)(6)) . Which means, basically,"even if all the facts are true, you still have no case". So they do the obvious thing, and for the purposes of that motion (and appeals of it, like here), they assume all the facts are true :)
This is an incredibly racist thing to say. Many "brown people" worked hard to come into this country legally and actively oppose illegal immigration. No one I know who legally immigrated to the US is worried at all about being deported, that's just FUD.
> They even wrote a sternly worded letter

Privately delivered to Amazon by the ACLU. Until one of the signatories, who is also a major Amazon shareholder, goes public with their disgruntlement this should merit no further attention.
The consensus of historians is clear. They ignore them because they don't like to side with any single country. Think of it more like politicians ignoring consensus about Global Warming (e.g. Trump as an obvious example) or financial issues.

Politicians do not care about what is right, or what the scientific community thinks. They want to make things easier for them.
> After reading Bad Blood as well ... No patients were harmed.

You apparently didn't read it very well. Patients went to ERs, had drug dosages changed, invasive tests and procedures performed as a result of these results.

> It's Theranos's investors and Theranos's business partners that are mostly at fault. They didn't do their due diligence

And it's probably the FDA's fault, too, right? You know, since they should have known that a locked and partly covered side door to a lab is where the Theranos equipment really was, and that the lab they were inspecting had been carefully prepared and "sanitized" for their benefit, and Theranos hoped that if this wasn't uncovered they'd be certified based on the "prepared" lab. Balwani and Holmes forbidding anyone from using the real lab, or going through that door when inspectors were on-site was... "just hoping that it would work", not actively deceptive and fraudulent, right? What due diligence might have helped discover that?

You know, they're not making any more land.

The world has gotten significantly richer since 1945, and a result of that is that more and more of the world's population has the ability to travel to the most beautiful and popular places in the world. However, this explosion in wealth hasn't been matched by an explosion in the number of truly beautiful and popular places in the world. The ones we do have just get more crowded.
Breathtakingly ignorant? Wow.
I have seen foreign aid in the third world and a lot of it is pretty self serving from the first world (including the US). Examples: US aid to fund a cure for malaria except they were only interested in solutions that would work as short term protection for the US military, not long term protection for the people actually suffering from chronic malaria. The WHO (in this case pushed by individual Americans) pushing locals to switch a national park over to mining interests resulting in multinationals coming in, screwing the environment and taking all the profits.

I wrote about this recently as well. This is actually going to be more of a concern as we incorporate models into everyday products. Stakeholders and QA need a solid understanding of Type I and Type II error so they can assess how much risk they're willing to take on and make that part of the quality process.

I think the main question is what happens to the "Facebook nevers" generation once they graduate from college. Do they continue not using Facebook or do they accept that given the lifestyles in 20s, 30s and 40s, Facebook is the right product to be in.

The fact that Snapchat, which is a very popular product for teens/college users, usage continues to stagnate tells me that the "Facebook nevers" is not really a proven theory but just another hypothesis. Instagram, otoh, is popular across all age groups.
I’m not sure I understand your comment. Do you mean to say that you think the market’s notion of value DOES align with the importance acting individuals place on a good / importance worth or usefulness of something?

How could this possibly be true when the majority of wealth is held by a minority of individuals?

It’s contradictory. A majority of people are incapable of expressing their values through wealth dispersion. If you assume that wealth dispersion is an expression of value, then by definition wealthy individuals are disproportionately able to express value.
What is your day-to-day GPS? If it's a dedicated GPS device and not a cellphone, that might explain it.

Cellphones have Assisted-GPS where they get satellite orbit information and accurate time from the cellular network, and sometimes can offload computation to it, so they can get faster locks.

Apparently it was developed for 911 reasons - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisted_GPS

There are influencers making 6+ figures. They are mostly Youtuber's, IG accounts with 500K to 1M+ subscribers. 1 million views can garner near ~$10,000 in ad revenue (depending on your partner level) and they also can monetize further with sponsorships/patreon pages. There is money but you have to build a very large audience on Twitter, IG or Youtube.
Indeed local governments have a massive responsibility..

But if hotel prices, etc goes up too much and regulation becomes too strong there is a risk the travel agencies will send tourists somewhere cheaper.

Just saying the consumer is already traveling, they could travel somewhere else. That said, small efforts would probably go far.
In a sense. "Fùt" is not a Spanish word, and "bol" means "bowl." They just use the English word for the game, written phonetically in Spanish.
Venezuela is not using Bitcoin on any large scale. And if the people were, they would have lost 30% of their money in the last month.

It’s not racist to point out the systematic racism of a federal agency. Or do you think ICE is deporting white citizens?

My friend’s wife finally got her citizenship because of all this nonsense. My wife (though not brown) is seriously considering it as well. There are many others.

At this point, opposing ICE is not about being in favor of illegal immigration, it’s about being against an abusive government agency.

Edit: to anyone doubting that ICE is racist, I propose an experiment. Leaving all of your identification at home (perfectly legal), ride the bus to, say, Nogales, AZ and then back home. Now go ask a hispanic-looking US citizen friend to join you on this journey and see what they say.
The claim that there is systemic racially motivated killings carried out by police is the claim that needs to be backed up. This is a claim that is not supported by facts. There is a small number of officer involved shootings that are found to be unjustified, and there are entire communities of people who will jump at the chance to report on them, so it’s not like they can slip under the radar on a massive scale. The crime rates in different countries have absolutely 0 bearing on whether office involved shootings in the US are justified. The occurrences of unjustified office involved shootings in the US don’t come even remotely close to anything that could be considered ‘systemic’, the whole narrative is an outright lie.
In what possible universe is not wanting to put weapons in space enough to make me an insane raving lunatic? Take a step back man! The future is not written yet. We have a choice. We always have a choice. We can stop the militarization of space now, right now, before it even gets started. Do you honestly think that our current national governments can be trusted with the kind of power you get by having weapons in space? Are you familiar at all with the 20th century?
It's really only an issue for you once there's already an impending disaster, and even then the responsibility doesn't lie with those that did the damage?!

That's hard to swallow, for me. Do people have no moral obligations, in your view? Is life only about the power to push back against something one doesn't like, rather than some deeper commitment to what is right and good?
I think this is one of the first time in my life i see marketing (calling something « autopilot » which it is not) and overhype (we have to be the first to have self driving cars, now !) actually kill people and not just rip people or investor off.

I think history will judge those companies very severely, and i’m wondering if justice isn’t going to be just as severe right now.
Maybe, but we do have lots of artificial travel destinations, Las Vegas, Disneyland, etc, comes to mind :)

Millions can do it, rendering the notion that that was what enabled Bill Gates to be a zillionaire absurd.

And then there are all those millions buying houses for over $500,000, and $30,000+ cars, who could invest $25,000 in a business instead. But that's why they aren't Bill Gates - they made different choices.
Speaking for Tesla and Uber, they use neural nets. Tesla has the most data which is what you're referring to above and they do exactly what you were stating. The software is/has always been shadowing human drivers, that is learning and comparing to the decisions it would make on its own. Uber is also most definitely using a similar set up. I think neural nets are a basic necessity in this field since there are an almost infinite number of scenarios.
AH yeah, sorry about that. And thanks for the correction.

That is a ridiculous over-reading of the notion --- not well supported in mainstream science --- that "race doesn't exist". Scientists who make that claim aren't suggesting that it's therefore impossible for someone to be discriminated against based on race. That would be a self-evidently ludicrous proposition, given observable reality.
Autopilot is also (usually) only turned on in situations where it is worthwhile, works well, has a benefit.

General human driving rarely has that luxury short of "do not drive at all".

Comparing the "best/better world" scenarios of where AP is active, versus all miles driven is an apples and oranges comparison.

I think people are in general becoming a little disillusioned with using market dynamics to allocate leisure.

Nobody minds that only rich people can stay at fancy hotels. But if, hypothetically, only rich people can set foot in New Zealand? That offends people.

Yes, scarce resources need allocating. Market dynamics are not the only way, see lottery permits in the NPS.
> 60 to 90 seconds

That seems pretty long, what's your setup?

I noticed mine taking much longer than it should, and the reason seemed to be a lot of useless PKDF time. For every disk I had to decrypt, my system went through the LUKS table and tried the keyfile in order. By putting the keyfile entry first in the table and configuring it to minimum PKDF time (just for the keyfile, still millions of sha512 for passwords) my disks all decrypted in a couple seconds.
(Samay from Citus)

This blog post is quite different than Cloudflare's old pipeline. I can think of three fundamental differences.

(1) Cloudflare's pipeline used an old version of Citus. On that version, Citus was still a proprietary database that forked from Postgres. Since then, Citus became an extension of Postgres (not a fork) and went open source.

(2) Features highlighted in this blog post weren't available in the old version of Citus. Example features are hash distribution, distributed roll-ups, and sharding by site_id and partitioning by time.

These features help in two ways: (a) They simplify the overall pipeline quite a bit. You don't need to rely on a single Postgres node and Kafka queues to do roll-ups. (b) Your end to end price-performance improves by 4-5x. You can ingest larger volumes of data through sharding + time partitioning. You can also do parallel roll-ups inside the database. Neither of these were possible back in the day.

(3) Similarly, Cloudflare outlined issues around single point of failures around Postgres / Citus: https://blog.cloudflare.com/http-analytics-for-6m-requests-p...

Postgres streaming replication and Citus' HA solutions have come a long way in the past three years. These points shouldn't be an issue in newer versions.

Overall, the database space is an exciting market, where products continuously evolve. This blog post presents a reference architecture that uses new features in Citus - that have been added in the past three years and that our customers are using today.

How many of those people would not be living there if not for the revenue brought in by tourism?

Reading the article, my immediate thought was: of course the Balinese hate tourists, when the ill effects are so obvious, and the benefits more subtle; easy to take for granted. But where would they be economically if all the tourists just stopped coming? I would bet the resulting recession would make people yearn for what they once despised.
Ask HN: Is anyone else living this depression cycle?
You find something you love (coding, in my case), you get a "decent" job in the industry. You hate your job. You get depressed.

Then, you quit your job. Just to find out the next one is as meaningless as the previous one - with a company and colleagues who don't share your values.

You aren't good enough to land a job in one of the cool companies you admire. You think about improving your skills but, then, your life is basically spending 20 hours per day just for work, sleeping, and commute. You have 4 hours left for cooking, family, friends, house cleaning, improving your skills. People tell you aren't trying hard enough. You feel shitty, guilty, and even more depressed.

You think about quitting your job, create your own company, do something you're passionate about and that will help other people. But you realize your savings would be enough to cover only two months without working.

You spend nights without sleep, develop simple prototypes, show them to investors. They praise your idea but tell you the prototype is too simplistic and, if you really believe in your idea, you should work full-time on it.

You make a whole plan for quitting your job. Thinking about becoming a homeless for a few months but you give up. You aren't strong enough.

You ask your friends for help. But they don't understand how a software engineer doesn't have some savings. You look back to all the money spent helping your family (who is poor and live in a developing country). You could ignore them but you're too weak, too soft. You feel shitty - and more depressed again.

Then, you tell how you feel to other people. They whine about your whining reminding you how shitty you're for complaining about life, reminding you how weak you are. And, guess what, you get more depressed again.

This cycle keeps repeating itself until you see yourself sitting on your bed with a bunch of pills thinking about killing yourself.

Is anyone else living this same depression cycle?

i think there's a couple of reasons for optimism:

1. high-speed net access is becoming more and more common; higher speed help makes the possible overhead of distributed solutions less of a barrier

2. there is more awareness now of the downsides of having a centralized provider. many youtube creators and users have been burned by google; i think that'll generate real demand for a decentralized solution.

3. existence/arguably success of decentralized currencies provides a lot of psychic energy/motivation for making decentralized things.
That's kind of the point, right? Inflation encourages spending, but it also encourages investment, and your saved money can be invested in stocks and bonds, which also stimulate economic growth more than being stuffed in a mattress.
I agree I don't think they know how to do basic math.
Sure. But let's be clear - it is good to have as many software developers as possible steering away from unethical work.

Not FUD to those to whom it happened. Can you clarify your arguments? To say that some/many immigrants oppose illegal immigration says nothing about whether power and profiling is abused, and your 3rd hand anecdote over legal immigrants having no fear of misidentification from a (I think we'd agree) provenly overburdened system does not do much convincing.

It is quite possible and even reasonable to have a goal and hate/fear the methods that some use to achieve those ends.
Ask yourself, though, how often you’ve seen emails like this from other companies in the news. Probably about never?

Agree with minor nitpick

>human drivers routinely do things that are not justifiable by vehicle physics (e.g. stopping distances) because they have a comparatively sophisticated and unconscious understanding of our physical world, how changes may develop and how other human drivers or pedestrians might react

Whatever "we" do is justifiable by implication because what is and isn't justifiable is set by consensus. Traveling 85mph with 1.5sec following distances might not leave much room for error but it's still "justifiable" because what's "justifiable" is a function of what everyone considers ok to do.

Self driving systems don't need to kill less people, they need to kill less people in edge cases that are so trivially avoidable to humans that the only people who have similiar kinds of accidents are incapacitated.
The primitives help with taking the same lock around every access to a location. They don't help in finding locations that should use the same lock; you can easily write Rust code that uses too many separate locks and as such can still have race conditions.
>and even then the responsibility doesn't lie with those that did the damage?!

Doesn't responsibility for a rising teen birthrate lie with the teens?
Doesn't responsibility for an opioid epidemic lie with users and traffickers?
Doesn't responsibility for gridlock lie with drivers?

In a sense, yes, but realistically, this kind of collective action problem can only be solved at scale by governments. Telling Americans "STOP TRAVELING" will be about as effective as telling drug lords "STOP TRAFFICKING".
I'm curious why this needs its own definition, rather than being part of a larger "addiction disorder".
From what I have seen, many travelers seek novelty, movement, and temporary escape. As in so many other activities, some merely seek the appearance of seeking. The appearance of experience and worldliness, as an expression of fashion, tribe, and belonging. You see this in natural settings too, with people more concerned with checking off a list of national parks and sign posts than with actually experiencing the natural world beyond the postcard framing.

Ironically, if everyone were an itinerant traveler, there would be no local cultures to visit. Everyone you meet would be another generic gap year traveler and every place would be a youth hostel. There would be no real locality to sample.

I think only a small percentage of pleasure travelers are really looking for the cultural enrichment romanticized in travel stories. Even then, this is shallow experience-seeking as compared to a field anthropologist who methodically studies and compares cultures. And, neither of these compare to the immigrant who transplants themself permanently into a new, adopted culture.

A peculiar kind of travel you see in immigrants, even multigenerationally, is heritage tourism. It's almost a reversal of escape and novelty-seeking. They seek some return to a faint memory or myth of the old country.

Oh, I wasn't implying that I think he or any figure should be "absolved" of anything.

If we're all guilty of hypocrisy in some form or another, and we all struggle with it, and the person your describing is dead and can do nothing to change that fact, what is actually the point?

I mean, there are times hypocrisy is overt and blatant, and times when it's subtle and we don't see it in ourselves. In those times, I think it should be called out on, and even historically, it can be useful to make the distinction between outright deceit and phoniness to cognitive dissonance to just being unaware.

With Thomas Jefferson, or most people from the past, I can't know which part of the spectrum of hypocrisy they fell on.

I think it's fair for you to be honest and point it out, but it's so often used as a pejorative statement without any nuance into the relative ways in which we could easily be talking about ourselves.

But again, I don't say any of this to try to defend or deny the sins of those in the past, those should be discussed frankly and out in the open.
