Yes he mentioned it would be a standard any autonomous EV could add, and specifically said it would not be a walled garden.

Makes sense to add these to the vehicles so the tunnel can be as ‘dumb’ as possible, since we’ll need a lot of tunnels to make a dent in traffic.

Note also Tesla’s prior commitment to opening their patent portfolio for OEMs to use. Seems similar approach (platform play).

1. We are considering Istio! This is especially true for our Kubernetes environment. We are already planning to deploy Pilot for the first iteration of our control plane in our non-K8s environment, so the other pieces that comprise Istio is a natural place for us to continue exploring.

2. We have not containerized prior to Envoy. We're running application binaries provisioned with Puppet on EC2 for most of our infrastructure still.
If I understood you correctly, if someone wanted to highjack my back history they could still do it on a random click? Is it only preventing non user interactive changes to the history or did I understand you wrong?
Are they really boring tunnels cheaper and faster than traditional construction companies though? Seems like that's the real goal with the company.

Having lots of cheap energy from fusion would definitely help scale up sequestration efforts.

The last couple decades have clearly shown that the limit on humanity's capabilities is the amount of electricity we can command.
I don't work for Google and i haven't interviewed with them. In our company (low level systems engineering) we ask similar question, with the following rationale:

I don't want to test if you can build systems, your resume already says so and there is but enough time to assess this properly anyway.

But, can you be bothered to try to solve problems outside of your comfort zone? Will you humor me as an interviewer for one hour with something that is maybe new to you?

If you rise to the challenge and attempt to solve these problems,i extrapolate to the systems engineering part.
A BeOS-based MacOS would’ve been ready for prime time years before Mac OS X was.

I'm not so sure. NeXTSTEP was pretty stable. I get the feeling that a lot of the delay had little to do with NeXTSTEP and much more to do with Apple and Adobe/Microsoft. Plus, the development environment was no where near as good on BeOS.

Please do not make this a Pro / Enterprise feature. I do remote tech support for my parents and would love for them to browse / use apps in a sandbox.
That explains it. In this case Dragonfly sounds more like a nickname rather than the official name.

As seen in one of photos in the sohu link, the English spelling is Qiantu, not Dragonfly or Qingting.

Another question is why the autonomous vehicles would need guide wheels? Sounds decidedly non-autonomous to me.
> Chinese car joint ventures has been ran for a decade but still Chinese can't design a decent car.

such joint ventures have been there for 3 decades, vw is the first western company that started such joint ventures back in the mid of 1980s. they are not stupid, they won't tech you the know how whatsoever. the best example here is the fact that Volkswagen Santana was the only model built and sold by that joint venture between vw and SAIC back in the 80s, 90s and early 2000s.
Facebook could be considered as a strategic military asset, as it is capable of quite accurately mapping people around the world. Relationships between people in Iran, same place same time, same IP, ghost profiles...

If you were the CIA, wouldn’t you work on protecting/ preventing such people from having a trial?
I have seen the financial statements of dozens of dealerships and they absolutely turn a tidy profit. What you call the "front office" only loses money during recessions and when WTI is above a hundred. The effect of the latter varies wildly based on product mix. Also, the service dept is not sufficient to save a struggling dealership during a bad economy.

The main drivers of dealership economics are sales revenue relative to local and national peers and cost/availability of wholesale/retail financing. Not a top dealer for your market? You're screwed. Regional recession? Screwed. Lender pulled your flooring? Screwed. It's suddenly illegal to charge usurious interest rates (and fees!) for $4k used cars? Joe Schmo can't get cheap financing for a $40k brodozer? You get it.
It’s for added safety factor at high speeds (150mph).
You are right! Any language has its disadvantages. Btw, I'm very interested in which programing language you're using mainly? Would you like to share with us? Thanks in advance ^_^
What's wrong with Apple's webkit support for the Mac?
Apple seems to be neglecting webkit support for the Mac. What's going on? While WebView provides reasonable support, Apple is strongly discouraging it's use without deprecating it. The replacement, wkWebView for the Mac is almost useless. It doesn't even support wkWebView.scrollView although the iOS version does. Requests for information, code-level support, and bug reports result in bald-faced evasion.

What's going on?
Yep. I've never put any kind of personal information on FB aside from a profile picture and a name. My profile has otherwise been blank for the past 10 years. I've never liked any pages or products or left any meaningful comments that reveal anything of importance. Today, I block all of their ads and scripts (I haven't seen an ad on Facebook for the past 10 years). I've never shared my contact book as annoying as they make the popup in Instagram. Facebook has gained nothing from me directly. Others might argue they've gained more information than I could know from the people I choose to associate with, but I can't really control that.

Today, I use Facebook because it's useful for connecting with people I just met, long lost friends, and because Messenger is the most convenient messaging app out there. Instagram is a great app that I enjoy using and will continue to use (also anecdotal, but I've never seen an ad in Instagram either. I guess I must not follow enough people?)

Realistically, the only way I stop using FB's services is if they start charging for them. That's my personal red line, just because I'm too lazy to pay and I figure most of my friends will be, too, so they'll just move on to the next big thing.
Another hash with a similar property uses close pronunciation as distance: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundex
Agreed, but at least it isn't gated off like Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection
Nit: simhash approximates cosine distance, not Jaccard distance (that would be minhash).
>this feature ships with Windows 10 Pro and Enterprise. No need to download a VHD!

Swing and a miss. It's interesting how Microsoft will force their slow AV onto every win10 home edition device, yet won't give actual tools users can protect themselves with.
Not all hashes are intended for cryptographic applications or want the Avalanche effect. Some are simply succinct digests of data and some attempt to retain important information like the hash described here.

Yup, non-CS and theory problems are basic /s
I quit using chrome, but it would be nice if they alerted you to the fact that the site is hijacking the button. Personally, when sites do that, I immediately add them to a block list because they are shit and I don't want to visit them ever again. Now you'll never know.
Sandboxie has been providing similar functionality on versions of Windows since XP: https://www.sandboxie.com/

It's probably nowhere near as elegant as the Windows 10 feature, but it should be very handy if you have older versions of Windows!
Let me start by saying: The gotchas that we've experienced have been far eclipsed by the benefits.

Aside from what what discussed, there weren't many things with Envoy specifically. We did have a few minor issues with the Thrift tooling, e.g.

https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/commit/a3c744294bca2cbf6...

but as the above indicates, they were resolved _very_ quickly.

The most important thing when making a transition like this is to have as much monitoring and observability as possible without the new tech. We were able to quickly identify and respond to issues we had with Envoy based on existing application and system instrumentation that weren't directly provided by Envoy, along with the vigilance of our engineering team.
NASA Doesn't Have Enough Nuclear Fuel for Its Deep Space Missions
There’s no fundamental reason ISS modules couldn’t autonomously dock with each other. The main reason it wasn’t entirely built that way (though some sections definitely were) is because of the desire to create a PR justification for the Shuttle. In fact, modules have been added to the station since the Shuttle went out of service, and will continue to be added. Anything that couldn’t connect that way you could install onsite using EVA by ISS crew and the ISS Canadarm, which is a level of capability you could easily reach by launching autonomous self-powered modules.
Yes, mentioned in live stream was that other co’s only spend 1/5 the time actually boring and the rest on logistics of putting up retaining walls and the like. Part of Boring Co innovation is to automate that and keep the borer working all the time. Also they 3x’d the energy output of the boring machine vs competitors. Should add up.
Agreed, this sounds like a genuinely useful feature, it’s a shame to hide it and restrict it to pro users only. Things like this should be “first class citizens” of the OS and in the spotlight for marketing.
Was this incident recorded by any passers-by?

It may sound as if I'm asking out of doubt, but rather, I'm asking to see if my hunch that CBP is equally as reckless and uncaring in front of a camera as e.g. other law enforcement agencies.
It felt completely neutral to me. Admittedly, the reporter didn't genuflect before the altar of Elon, which some of his fans might interpret as implicit hostility.
Exactly, it's still very much active and widely investigated, thrown money at. Large companies are developing and testing out their own IoT solutions behind closed doors. Just recently saw an invite from some university study group trying to get their project funded. They were looking into IoT for farming and hospitals. This segment is definitely growing, maybe not very public at the moment, but it's going to be soon.

You can climb and fall through completely different means, but in those cases, the fall usually doesn't invalidate the climb. People weren't dismissing ReiserFS because of its author's other actions.
And a nontrivial number of current university faculty.

Sandboxie is a UI nightmare IMO - it took me ages to work out how to launch a single program in a sandbox.
Your argument makes sense in theory and yet I can't think of a single retail shopping experience that's worse than going to a dealership. I've been putting off replacing two cars because the experience is so awful.
This is certainly not the first article of its kind, and the legality of such action seems to be upheld in court (at least the use of search without a warrant at the border).

So, the selfish question then is: How do I protect myself from such unwarranted searches? Is there a way I can present my phone such that it drops into a mode that contains no data? Do I need to back my phone up before traveling, wipe it for the border crossing, and then restore once I feel safe?

It feels crazy to ask this question, as an American citizen, but HN, what do you do to protect your data at the American border?
Ah, it's Pro because it's using Hyper-V.
Nice job Americans. When will you people learn to treat your citizens with decency and stop this ridiculous behaviour. You should be protesting in your streets.
Fair enough. Genuinely thought you had access to a database of reported ICD-10-CM codes that you could query for T65.2[1] instances.

We have not yet put Envoy in our main HTTP ingress path, but internally we have designs and implementation paths ready to go, and it's definitely being considered for public ingress traffic. As we noted in the last "teaser" section of the post we'd really like to leverage Envoy's routing functionality to facilitate migrating client-facing APIs in the backend without affecting frontend interfaces.

Our HAProxy layer that routes ingress traffic to the core backend infrastructure has considerable routing logic that can be moved to Envoy and then further extended. We'd love to explore that path in the coming months.
Based on Hyper-V? Bummer. I use VMware Workstation at work and that’s not going to change.
It’s crazy that there ever is/was an endpoint to read a user’s private messages. What exactly would ever be a good use case for that where a user would knowingly agree to it.
Don't forget that the border zone extends 100 miles in from the actual border (including the great lakes). Most US people live their entire lives in the constitution free zone where this kind of violation is allowed.
Then make Hyper-v home.

Seriously this is a killer feature needed by everybody. And specially the non-pro users.
Making Google Play ratings and reviews more trustworthy
We need to update the fair credit reporting act with a data retention and opt out section for online activities. The key would be making the violations punitive enough that only crooks, and not these supposedly respectable corporations, would be willing to abuse.
I’m not even republican but that seems like an insane statement, for reasonable interpretations of “deceit” and “represents”. Like, is this on their website or are you labeling it? To be charitable let’s say you’re reading between the lines.

Is this like people claiming the democrats stand for “welfare queens and social decay”?
I submitted this because I've been thinking about this problem a lot lately, and so was pleased to find this.

I'm unable to find any "meaty" articles, however - everything I find is pretty much press release stuff. Would love better links and a knowledgeable discussion on the plastic-to-anything-useful work being done.

TIA!
> I think my issue is an attitude that celebrates ignorance.

I take a different view. It's an attitude that recognizes tradeoffs.

In an ideal world with infinite time and no responsibilities, we should learn all of those CS theories in addition to our programming skills.

But we don't live in an ideal world. And there is only so much time to devote to learning.

Hence, one must choose and prioritize which part of the field to excel at.
For general queries, I use Searx.me. Occasionally I'll use Google if Searx is down, or I need technical information that I need search operators for.

For current events, I use Searx, Bing, Yandex, Yahoo, and Baidu (if I'm really digging). I don't trust any one provider on politically sensitive topics, and the the order/kinds of the results can occasionally carry as much signal as the the content of them.

I'm not conspiracy mongering, though. I merely think of search algorithms as extensions of the contexts in-which they're designed, and are more likely to represent the interests of their creators than my search for knowledge.
It felt a bit persnickety - focusing on some minor details of the event that weren’t perfect, probably as a proxy for author’s larger skepticism. Skepticism is warranted given the big claims & article wasn’t too bad overall.

> Perhaps tangential, but Jehovah’s Witnesses consider themselves Christain

“Christian”; on the other hand, mainstream Christians don't consider Jehovah's Witnesses or LDS to be Christians, because (long before either of those existed), mainstream Christianity settled on a common boundary around the Nicene (or Nicene-Constantinopolitan, as the Orthodox refer to it) Creed. Even across the two Great Schisms, this has held across the main communities.

> but don’t believe in hell because as the article also states, it isn’t mentioned in either the Hebrew or Greek scriptures.

“Hell” is a name applied to a doctrine that those holding to it hold as an interpretation of several passages in the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, primarily references to Gehenna and tartarō.
The upside is, at least they don’t have a virus, not the kind that encrypts files or sends you CC info to China.

> We are building neural networks from the ground up that combine experience-based AI, end-to-end deep learning, and crowdsourced data with advanced computer vision to deliver a highly scalable and flexible driving stack.

Oh yes, that's precisely what we need. An end-to-end black box NN driving our cars. So that when this completely alien mind causes an accident, and it will cause an accident, we'll have no idea what happened, or why, or what to do about it (except shove in more training data and keep our fingers crossed).

I have the distinct feeling that GPUs today aren't used to give intelligence to the machine, but to save developers from the need to think about the problem they're solving.
Modern ICE cars need very little drivetrain maintenance. Fluid changes are about the only thing most new cars need for a hundred thousand miles. There will still be maintenance work on EVs for all of the non-drivetrain stuff that cars have. Tires, suspension and steering components, climate control, electrical accessories, none of those are any different on an EV nor are they any more reliable because they are on an EV.
Some journalists have become openly cynical about Musk, probably now that so many promises have failed to materialize.
We're currently evaluating the pieces that comprise Istio, both within Kubernetes and outside of it in our existing infrastructure.

We didn't do so immediately because we did not want to immediately update all of our technology at once and felt that a piece-wise migration would be both the least disruptive to our infrastructure and safest. I think of Istio as like Smartstack in that it's not actually a complete "thing" so much as a suite of technologies that can be individually evaluated and deployed. It's very easy to fall into the trap of wanting to do everything at once, and we opted to make small progressive steps for this initiative.
Good point!

I ran into this case studying for interviews a while ago. The "maximum subarray problem"[1] is a common interview question, you are generally expected to be able to come up with the O(n) solution.

Well has a great passage about the origins of the problem and how multiple excellent algorithmists could not improve on a O(n^2) run time[2]:

> Grenander observed that the cubic time of Algorithm 1 was prohibitively slow, and derived Algorithm 2. In 1977 he described the problem to Michael Shamos of UNILOGIC, Ltd. (then of Carnegie-Mellon University) who overnight designed Algorithm 3. When Shamos showed me the problem shortly thereafter, we thought that it was probably the best possible; researchers had just shown that several similar problems require time proportional to N log N. A few days later Shamos described the problem and its history at a seminar attended by Jay Kadane (a statistician at Carnegie-Mellon University), who designed the linear-time Algorithm 4 within a minute.

The solution is elegant and seemingly "obvious" after looking at it, but good luck coming up with it yourself :)

Suggestion: for international travel, when possible stow your powered off phone in checked baggage, and bring a non-important factory-reset phone or tablet for entertainment or to connect to the cloud if needed for work etc. If needed keep your work files in a hidden folder on an SD card in your camera... lots of annoying but increasingly necessary workarounds to deal with the growth of authoritarian states.
Agreed. I'd go so as far to say that consumers -- especially technologically vulnerable ones like your parents, for example -- need this more than any other demographic.

Microsoft should make it easy to download, install and update on all non-Enterprise versions of the OS. This will also greatly reduce instances of a random ransomware holding critical data hostage and doing irreparable economic damage to small businesses (as was visible during the WannaCry episode last spring [0]).

How detectable will it be? I doubt this will make the lives of malware analysts any easier.
>>You mention diff(1), but who's to say the author(s) of that tool would've necessarily solved this problem on the spot?

I think this is the gist of the all problems facing the current interview process.

There is a big difference between inventing a solution to a problem, and learning the solution to a problem which some one invented.

The latter shows nothing about the ability or even the way in which a person thinks or even works. It just shows the person was able to scale multiplication table memorization skills to other things as they grew up.
The title doesn't do the post justice. This is an amazing use of a vintage Macintosh and the technical details are quite interesting.
There is an incredible number of norms you and most everybody else adheres to every single day. Some of them even obviously ridiculous and without any objective basis, like "don't wear white socks and sandals". Nobody charges you money, not even if you ignore such norms. And yet you comply - and the corset of cultural norms is far tighter than you realize (unless you start thinking about it, but even then it's hard to see from the inside how many rules you actually follow, by now quite voluntarily).

The human world outside "money" is far larger and the bonds also far stronger than inside of it, I would claim. It's just that one is mostly subconscious and the other one very often requires conscious attention, so guess which one you always notice.
