When you are breaking into an industry or trying to position yourself you need to hit above your weight. I remember when Volvo made their move, they went for the safety angle as well. Tesla has always been dogged by members of the industry and instead of turning to marketing speak Tesla turned to established and trusted entities to show their cars true value. Now it can be claimed by getting into the gritty details as they did in their blog they are entering the realm of marketing speak. (disclaimer, I own a 3).

With regards to why aren't all other manufacturers doing as well, just glancing through the web site of the NHTSA I cannot figure out how they decide what to test. In their current list of vehicles to test I do not even see Tesla so I will assume manufacturers can submit cars independently of being requested by the NHTSA.

Now when comparing cars at https://www.nhtsa.gov/ratings we only get stars which four is pretty common in the price range but you can compare and find cars that have the same star rating. Volvo's tend to still get 5 stars across the board

Do real-time subscriptions also work on sorted, filtered lists?

E.g. If a new item is added to the list, will it appear in the list in real-time?
Also, if an item's property is changed so that its position in the list changes, will this update the list in real-time as well?

If so, how does it prevent over-fetching?
Right, but the way to fix that isn't "throw more law enforcement at the problem".

Apple didn't "kill" anything. No iPhone has ever had an SD card slot.

And to the best of my knowledge, the main reason wasn't lock-in or planned obsolescence: it was Steve Jobs' desire for as little as possible to get in the way of the aesthetic and design of the iPhone.

Sure, you may find that to be a dumb reason, but it's a far cry from the cartoon villain a lot of people seem to enjoy making Apple out to be, rubbing its hands together with a cackling laugh as it sits on its mountain of money. (...Well, the mountain of money part is true, actually.)

Also, according to the report, following present trends the 1.5°C cap could be reached as early as 2030. It has been estimated that CO2 emissions would have to drop by 45 percent from 2010 levels by 2030.

Needless to say, these difficult targets can't be met without cooperation between governments and technological innovations.

It's not sexy, but college towns in the midwest can usually be pretty affordable as long as you're not trying to live exactly next to campus: Madison, Ann Arbor, East Lansing, South Bend,
Ames, etc. If you hear people talk about how cool Austin used to be 20 years ago, they're basically talking about what these towns are still like.
> this file was known to be "who is sleeping with who in Paris", including people posing no security threat whatsoever.

Yes, exactly. That's precisely what I expect any functioning and remotely competent secret service to do. Secret services are bound to look into anyone that is involved in anything that might represent a liability and a security threat. Thus to make sure someone doesn't pose a security threat... Secret services need to look into that person to perform threat assessments and protect the state and potential victims alike.

It's already the case even in synchronous microprocessor. It's exploited by side-channel attacks based on power analysis. It makes it very difficult to implement effective countermeasures using dual-rail protocol in hardware.

* "low code" is confusing
When I started reading I thought low code, meant low "level" code, something like assembly or rust. After reading a lot in the page I saw it meant not writing imperative code. I think the term Model Driven Engineering would be more appropriate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model-driven_engineering

* How do I model business rules?
How do I model a State machine?

I want to specify that once an order has been created I want to send it to the procurement department.

* How do I connect with external APIs systems?

* You mention that you have an ERP system based on this platform.
Can we look at that code?
Can we have some testimonials?

Kudos:
* It's good that you are doing a declarative approach to business software... this is still most of the software we use and I don't think it's a solved problem.

* On using a Graph database I think this is better to model complex domains. However which graph database are you using? Neo4j, Dgraph, OrientDB or is an inhouse graph database?

Most of the security comes from the drive train itself. You can clearly see the transmissions and the bulky engine pushing into the cabin of the car. I would attribute the vehicle safety to the electric drive train rather than some engineering magic.

I know I am stroking the HN-Tesla-Cat against the grain here but people shouldn't be too surprised when every other car maker who uses a similar layout in the future will have the same safety rating.

What I am saying: this is not the same magic as a carbon fibre monocoque but rather some inherent properties of skateboard constructed vehicles. (which is another pro for e-vehicles, I suppose).
Orbital apogee is only 540.9 km[0]. SpaceX launched a satellite to an orbit of 640km last night for what I presume was it's usual $60m launch price.

So 'getting to the Hubble' is pretty low in price, all things considered. Now the hard part: building something that can fix the Hubble. Humans would be good at making repairs, but the SpaceX Dragon capsule doesn't have an airlock, so that won't work easily. Repairs might be doable by a robot, but I suspect the easier option would be to simply attach new parts to it to perform the broken functionality.

If you can build the new piece for $40m, that's $100m to add another 20+ years to the lifespan of this incredible piece of equipment. Heck, sounds like something Bezos might do just for fun and as a test for his New Glenn rockets.

All government records should have a public available audit of all access activities. The user or group making the request should always be revealed except by court order and those should still be acknowledge or determinable by some means. The type of data revealed can be classified into groups indicating how detailed it is, from simple identification confirmation to tax and criminal records.

the key is public access to the the logs of access. next step would be giving the public the ability to challenge the data within reasonable limits
When you got your last mortgage, didn't your advisor tell you the 'best' option, taking into account tax breaks and whether you are single- or dual income family? Sure, it's less money we're talking about, but it's 'tax planning' or 'tax avoidance' all the same. I find it weird that people complain about 'them' not paying their full share, yet use their retirement tax incentives to the max every December.
It seems that it is either at par with or inferior to the GA Tech OMSCS in every way but the minimum time to completion. You can do it in 1.5 years whereas IIRC the minimum for GA is three years.
Darin Oliver of BLOCKDRAW to Speak at G2E in Las Vegas
Darin Oliver, CEO of BLOCKDRAW will be attending the upcoming G2E (Global Gaming Expo) is the largest casino-gaming event in the world. Darin a former casino regulator will be speaking about new ways to make the online gambling industry more transparent, secure and trustworthy for the operators, regulators and of course, the players. Global Gaming Expo (G2E) will take place in Las Vegas “by the industry- for the industry”.
This is easy. Pittsburgh.

Consistently ranked as a top city in the US, and world, to live in, in no small part due to the comparatively cheap cost of home prices, rent, and living in general. For example, there are nice neighborhoods in the city where one can buy a three bedroom, 2000sq foot house for < $150,000. I think that would buy a closet in the Bay area.

With Carnegie Mellon University here, the 'intellectual' and more specifically the tech scene is thriving. I work for (and take classes at) CMU and see this first hand. Numerous big tech companies have set up shop near campus (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Uber, etc). There are many, well funded, startups operating out of the city as well (e.g. Duolingo, Petuum), most of which have spun out of CMU.
It's in Low Earth Orbit. I think we could get a rocket to it if we launched from the same location that the Shuttle launched from when it went to repair it.

Remote repair using a robot is a whole other issue, and I don't think we have the tech developed to do this reliably any time soon.
Darin Oliver of BLOCKDRAW to speak at G2E in Las Vegas, on how to make the gambling industry “Provable as Fair”

Darin Oliver, CEO of BLOCKDRAW will be attending the upcoming G2E (Global Gaming Expo) is the largest casino-gaming event in the world. Darin a former casino regulator will be speaking about new ways to make the online gambling industry more transparent, secure and trustworthy for the operators, regulators and of course, the players. Global Gaming Expo (G2E) will take place in Las Vegas “by the industry- for the industry”.

At (G2E) Darin will be joined by NBA legend and two-time Hall of Famer Earvin “Magic” Johnson who will be giving the keynote address and discussing the future of sports betting legalization in the USA. Darin will be discussing both the regulation of crypto-casinos and the real benefits that blockchain technology brings to the casino gaming industry globally.

Currently, most people are concerned that blockchain casinos won`t be accepted by the industry. However, Darin Oliver has a completely different point of view on this point. He claims that many companies are now attempting to develop decentralized platforms for online casinos, but they do not properly implement the key concepts such as security, safety, and infrastructure integratory: “We have a vision at BLOCKDRAW that we will build the right model that will be enjoyed by players and highly trusted by large companies in the casino-gaming space. Our model will give customers the traditional experience of online casino and at the same time will offer significant benefits of the blockchain. Nevertheless, the main purpose of this conference is to unite like-minded professionals of the industry with their own unique experiences, ideas, and visions. I hope that through deep discussions we will all manage to come up with brilliant and versatile solutions that will lead the whole online gambling industry to the better future.”

At G2E, Darin will present “BLOCKDRAW” a blockchain powered online casino & gaming ecosystem. He is here to share his unique experience and help you understand everything you need to know about how the modern online casino gaming world will benefit and grow from the introduction of blockchain technology with the “Provable as Fair” concept.
Everyone knows that what happens in Vegas – stays in Vegas. However, not this time, everything that happens at (G2E) Vegas will have to go outside to the casino-gaming industry globally for the benefit of everyone.

Set yourself up for success at Global Gaming Expo (G2E)—the largest gathering of global, commercial and tribal gaming professionals in North America. Take advantage of new educational content that is fast-paced and actionable and experience first-hand the new products and innovative technologies displayed on the expo floor.

> More likely they told Congress the truth, but the Congress is also under a national security gag and they put out a false statement about what Apple declared...

So the secret is so important that congress is under a gag order. The two highly valued companies in the US ( Apple and AMZN ) has a gag order. But litle old bloomberg doesn't have a gag order. Isn't that a bit unbelievable?

> Guys, you are worse than the ZeroHedge and similar conspiracy forums...

Doesn't this apply to bloomberg and the media as well? The entire country is immersed in conspiracy. Not sure why you are attacking HN and zerohedge in particular. What's with the sudden attack on social media with attacks like "conspiracy"?

What do you expect of us? The discussion has to involve conspiracies because the story deals with conspiracy. Either bloomberg is right and the chinese ( or possibly other actors ) are involved in a conspiracy to spy on us in ingenious ways. Or bloomberg is wrong and they are involved in a conspiracy ( knowingly or not ) to spread disinformation. Or it could be a misunderstanding.

Just to throw something extra into the mix - infosec podcast Risky Business managed to track down a source (apparently a trusted source of 15 years) who provided photos to them of what the source claimed was "extra unlabelled components on sensitive buses" they'd found on a teardown they conducted of a Supermicro board.

And then, the source retracted the statement and said the photos were from different equipment, and that they didn't find hardware backdoors on Supermicro equipment.

This page on the Risky Business site explains their correction in more detail.

https://risky.biz/RB516_feature/

Generally Risky Business is pretty good (they had some great inside info on the "hack" of the 2016 Australian Census), so I find this an intriguing and interesting extra datapoint. If Risky Business can be misled this way, maybe this is how Bloomberg could be misled too.

I don't know. I think getting them off the streets is a fairly high prio thing to do, even if it's just by putting them in prison temporarily while a better option is prepared. Yeah, the homeless are victims of the situation, but so are the inhabitants of SF. They deserve a place to live where they do not have to be afraid of being assaulted by a homeless man, having their children tripping over infected drug paraphernalia, or their city being a hotbed of disease due to a large population doing their business on the streets.

How do you take this from here to the next step?

Let's say I want to develop a multi user todo and I've followed the examples and now have some Users who log in entering a password.

Someone points out that I shouldn't be storing passwords in plain text so I want to store them hashed.

Despite there being hints in the documentation that this is possible (migrations shows the password hashed), it's not clear how to carry out this kind of change.

A walkthrough of making a change would help convey the use case much better than just templates of "this incantation produces this output".

Pittsburgh seems to have inexplicably affordable housing -- a lot of it classy old steel-era buildings. And also CMU is there, so the intellectual resources stack up well against any other city.

If you're looking for more of an adventure I would highly recommend Tbilisi, Georgia (ie, the country not the US State). Relatively affordable, great food, culture encourages intellectual pursuits, beautiful country.

I don't know of anything with an appropriate form factor, unfortunately. You can't just do a normal rocket launch- you need to either develop an entire controlled vehicle to meet up with the Hubble (unless that exists already), or something that can exit a crew capsule. That's a surprisingly demanding task.

I think you'd basically have to engineer something from scratch, which is a big ask. It would be really interesting though! Imagine if you just left the robot up there, plugged in and on standby- ready to activate and do some repairs as needed. We should have one on every major satellite. Give him a box of spares, plug the remote into a 12 year old hopped up on adderall, mute the mic and watch it go.
In my experience, there's loads of businesses that aren't doing ethically questionable stuff.

No doubt it depends on the range of things you could take pride in doing, which varies from person to person!

Printer Ink Mostly Water, Still Costs More Than Champagne
POS tagging is a nice touch, but I've long wondered if there's a way to combine Markov sentence generation with actual grammatical rules -- that if there's an opening parenthesis there has to be a closing one, dependent clauses, etc. It would need to both gramatically parse the inputs as well as produce grammar trees for the outputs that would then be filled in by Markov chains that fit the trees...

Heck, even do it at a level larger than sentences too, so questions are followed by answers, a line of dialog is followed by a response, paragraphs follow a realistic distribution of lengths...

I believe the reality here is that this is that work being done to improve safety. You don't go from 10 to 1% on your first attempt and Tesla seems to view this as iterative, and continuous, improvement of chassis design as a critical output of their products. It's also great to see them highlight this as it keeps safety out there as a concern. Maybe it doesn't influence other car manufacturers directly but it will posit questions in the minds of buyers that may, over time, do just that to other brands.

Regarding injury from being hit by a vehicle: that isn't the point of this release by Tesla. The focus is the safety of the occupants, which is far more top of mind to buyers than the worry of hitting pedestrians. It's great that many brands now have CV that can detect and stop based on a person being within the vector of a vehicle. Tesla happens to be one of them and it would be interesting to see an objective test of pedestrian detection and mitigation at some point. Probably a critical test for manufacturers to have to pass as we continue towards autonomous operation.
