Ok so bright headlights are annoying. Why are there no more HUD like systems to improve night-time visibility? Project an IR overlay over the windscreen, tune the lights back to normal, enough for visibility and the road right in front of you.
Well, Netflix did claim at one time that their goal was to offer the ability for anyone to stream any movie ever created. So I guess I'm "butt-hurt" (/s, not really, I rarely believe these people's claimed goals) that some executive made a promise that they did not keep.

> There are plenty of restaurants that will hire an 18 year old with no experience and literally no qualifications to be a waiter.

And they'll likely be working in a chain restaurant barely making more than minimum wage, not breaking $20K per year.

> Lots of places when they are looking for experienced staff just hire anyone who had any waiting experience.

And again, waiters in such a situation will likely not be making much money.

To actually make $60K or more as a waiter, you need to have selling ability, wine knowledge and the skills to get into a better restaurant. You likely won't see anywhere close to this until you have 5 or more years of good experience (not unlike getting a traditional education).

If you're working at Chili's (or equivalent), lets say the average person spends $30. You serve 30 people in a night, that's $900 in sales (18% is $160). Now let's say you work in a high end steakhouse, steaks can run $50 each, appetizers $25 each, and then there's wine. Bottles can run anywhere from $50 to thousands. But let's say you sell a $120 bottle, which is a pretty common price-point in those types of restaurants. For a table of 2, 2 appetizers, 2 steaks and that bottle of wine adds up to $135/per person. Times 30 people per night, around $4K in sales, with tips being $780 (although, in reality, some of that goes to your support staff - bussers, host, sommelier).

Anyhow no, a coder won't get a great job right away. And a server won't get a lucrative job right away. You still need to build up to that point in the restaurant industry. You can't just do what cooks and waiters do at places like Eleven Madison Park, Benu, Saison, etc... without lots of training and experience.

So why shouldn't it be a possibility for a restaurant worker to make a 'professional' income?
> the lights are meant more to be seen than to see.

That's definitely false for headlights, fog lights, and for the extra light bars (well, maybe those are often installed as stylistic choices rather than utility).

Tail lights, running lights, turn signals are all more to be seen than to help the driver see.

According to the article, all three defendants stated that Orell fell or jumped from the car while trying to assault them, the distinction being uncertain due to his inebriated state.

That's aside from Orell's long and well-established history of injuring his wife and promising to kill her. Nothing in the story gives us any reason to doubt her account or those of the witnesses.

You assert that there is no knowledge under the expectation that it is true, then you go on and justify it. So it seems you know that there is no knowledge, a contradiction.

Why deny the word has meaning, just because you can't distill it down to a concise explanation? The meaning of a word can be arbitrarily complex. Knowledge can exist, even if you can't define it, because meaning is not determined by definition. Definitions are simply a mechanism for coordinating understanding, not for demonstrating its existence.

Besides, any argument against the existence of knowledge could be used against belief. Play "taboo" with the subject and don't confine yourself to using ancient terminology to describe the world and these pointless linguistic problems melt away.

Aah, but let's reverse the roles assuming both worked before and see how it sounds.
Honestly, men like beautiful women and women like rich men. Even if your wife is okay with it, it could be a hit to your attractiveness. It also means no more expensive gifts.

But otherwise, I have taken year long breaks from tech. There was no issue with being outdated; if you're the type to hang out on HN as a hobby, you should be fine. Interestingly, going back and looking at old code gave a lot of insights to what I was doing wrong.

The only issue I had was losing momentum on networking. If you go around rejecting work, they find someone else and people stop recommending you.

Also as someone who has taken a year off, I find that breaks don't cure burnout. Burnout is caused by not having an impact despite hard work. You probably won't have an impact on anyone's life by being good at hiking. It was teaching that brought me out of burnout.
I've been using Kodi (formerly xbmc) for years to watch my contraband content and I've got accounts to both Amazon Prime Video and Netflix for a few months already. It's pretty crazy how much better Kodi UI is compared to those services. At first I thought that it was just because I didn't know how to use these applications but no, they're just lacking basic features while at the same time being completely cluttered with what's effectively visual noise.

I'm actually still, uh, using alternative sources for some Netflix shows just because it means that I don't have to deal with their interfaces.

I hope that eventually we get a "Spotify for TV" but we're not there yet. What a mess.
So, this comes at weird time for me. I haven't had an HTPC/Plex setup powered up for over 3 years because one or two streaming subscriptions got the job done. But, the streaming services are all, mostly, focusing on their own content (which is OK, I guess), loosing rights to 3rd party content frequently, and now apparently raising prices. This means I no longer have easy access to what I frequently want to watch at a good price.

I fired Plex back up a few days ago, and I suspect I'll kill off at least one streaming subscription soon (probably hulu). I'm also really enjoying watching stuff without MASSIVE ARTIFACTS EVERYWHERE in dark scenes (all streaming services are pretty affected by this, its damn near unavoidable).

This is great and all, but I don't actually want to or enjoy having to run plex, manage storage space, and spend the time/money acquiring + ripping used blurays or otherwise obtaining high quality content. I want to pay for a single streaming provider on a subscription model and have access to everything, and I'd probably pay what it cost, but that's not really an option anymore....
You could also eat a mostly vegan diet, get the world to move towards sustainable farming practices (and away from monoculture crops), and support scaling up nuclear, renewables, and a massive infrastructure overhaul.
What's the difference now between online streaming providers and cable? Now to watch what I like, I would have to have AmazonPrime, Netflix, HBO and BBC Player. Netflix is now no different than cables were 15 years ago. Ads were replaced with webtracking and profiling. They are constantly removing 3rd party movies and TV shows, adding their own production which usually is quite bad (less than 6 stars on IMBD) and now increasing prices?
They are saying it is correlated, just as much as the correlation between mental health and potatoes which is next to negligible yet existent
Well, after all it's no big deal: How long do you think does it take you to disconnect the battery, get a coffee and two friends to sit in the trunk while you reconnect the battery? ;-)

And if you need to see the TÜV, you just leave out the trunk friends and are good to go as the headlights will then level themselves to the normal position again.

I've been blinded so often by Xenon headlights, I'm not sure if this is a widespread problem or if I'm just sensitive to those bright lights in the dark. On the other hand I've been blinded in daylight too, so it doesn't seem like it's about the darkness. And as my eyes have been tested to working very well I have the feeling that headlight settings are getting more aggressive even in normal mode.
Well, at least for the moment, it's easy enough to cancel and pick up again in a few month's time when there is sufficient new content to justify the price?

If it were not for this option I would be exclusive to amazon by now.

I think the main reason is so they can get rid of stuff they don't own without people noticing as much.
For myself, I've been pursuing a strategy where I rotate the streaming service. We use Sling during the times of the year where we care about it. We probably get about two months of Hulu every couple of years, and catch up on the stuff we want. I'd rotate Netflix if the kids weren't using it for morning cartoons so much. I'd rotate Amazon Prime if I weren't using Prime for things unrelated to the streaming, and I probably ought to run the math on that even so. I rotate some other more obscure services like anime streaming. I mix in some other things I can't get any other way via purchasing them directly from Amazon. (Still surprised there aren't any other streaming services that have adopted the "default catalog for free + purchase premium content" the way Amazon has.)

Because streaming services tend to retain their catalogs, you don't necessarily need to have all of them all the time. Especially if you can disconnect yourself from the need to watch "the latest episode" of something that comes out every week. I'm the only one in my family that has, really, but it's worth it if you can cultivate the mindset.

You also sometimes get the "Waaaaah! We want you back!" deals, too, which makes it even cheaper. I'm doing what I do for other reasons, but, hey, you want to do that for me, whatevs.

The end result is that not only are you generally at like $20/month, you frequently have something you're excited to watch as a new service rotates in that you've not had for a year, in a way that you don't if you just have all of them all the time.
I still listen to several of these types of stations (even ran one for a few years in the early/mid 2000's).

Mine was essentially just an unlicensed stream of whatever I'd put into a huge Winamp Playlist, but I also had some friends from an online forum and we would put together silly jingles and "station ID" clips to sprinkle throughout the day as well.

Hosting was provided by a friend who worked for a small ISP/hosting company and he just gave me free access, saying that nothing I could use would make a dent in their available bandwidth (and he would let me know if that changed).

It was pretty fun and I even went "live" on the mic occasionally if I knew there were people listening, but eventually I started looking into going "legit". For a while it was looking like I could actually afford the basic ASCAP/BMI/etc. license with hobby money but that changed when laws were changed to require you to pay royalties per-song-per-listener (unlike terrestrial radio).

Ran it unlicensed for a little while after that but eventually shut it off as it got to be a hassle and I had too many other things going on in life. Still, it was cool to get emails from people around the world thanking me for my stream.

At a time when friends were paying monthly subscriptions for XM radio, I plugged my little Palm Treo into the car stereo and had my own station to listen to all day. Before commercial streaming, there weren't many similar options but a good set of Shoutcast/Icecast bookmarks gave me the best radio dial I could imagine...without the subscription!

I still listen to several of these stations when I'm not listening to something in my own library or the local NPR affiliate. There's something to be said for real human-programmed playlists from people who love music. I know Spotify playlists serve this purpose for many folks, but I haven't really gotten into that since I have so many options.

Amazon Alexa has the exact same problem. I am sure it has something to do with licensing agreements with the songwriters. The problem is all of the music on both Google and Amazon that I listen too has been ripped from CD and uploaded by me so I own it. Now you can no longer upload music to Amazon that you own. At least Google still allows you to upload your own music.
Exploits are already developed prior to the event. It's not a CTF where one can reasonably be expected to find and develop an exploit during the contest. Players get limited time to tweak what they've got in case it doesn't work, but that's it.
Yeah, I thought that sort of quip might come along. ;)

On the one hand, you have a real point. On the other, JavaScript running in my browser has significantly less power to do anything bad to me than arbitrary executable programs running directly in my OS do.
>the response was pretty hostile.

>who would benefit from not having this conversation?

The companies that have a vested financial interest in mass surveillance, their technical employees, the public communication platform for the investment funds that fund startups in this space (cough) and the intelligence agencies that work directly with, and are sometimes embedded in, those technology companies.

Imagine if someone did find some exploit in Tor code, it would go over the head of 99% of coders anyway, and the accusations of "Russian hacking" would drown out most sensible discussion anyway.
I think we can expect Netflix to go from ~$13/mo to ~$40/mo over the course of the next 30 years.

For now they’re content to suck the life out of the networks. But generations of Americans have shown a willingness to pay $99/mo or more for their entertainment, which Netflix is pleased to provide.

We are the frogs in their pot, slowly being boiled. But, oh my, is it ever a nice hot tub.
The framework / tooling bloat is causing a bubble to form; it needs to be simplified, now. It can be done cleanly, but SPA often is not. You are correct in your assessment, even though the cargo-cultists will say otherwise. It doesn't need to be thrown out, it needs improved standards, focusing on simplicity, http >= 2, and domain-specific concerns, such as state management, routing, etc. The innovation in the space is mostly over, time to give it an injection of standard and boring. And, for the love of God, can we really not do better than the virtual-DOM for updates? In-memory copies? Really?

So what happens if a headlight or turn signal goes out while you're in the middle of your drive? Do you immediately pull over and call a tow to avoid having a officer pull you over and slap you with a 1k ticket because your light bulb decided to go bad right then? What about if a rear break light goes out, only way to usually know about those ones is if someone alerts you to it.
What prize do you get for pwning it sufficiently to make it drive off on its own? Sounds like that would be the ultimate hacking competition: you get the car if you make it drive to your own home.
> I don't understand how Netflix, with it's millions of dollars...

And I can't understand what's all the fuss about Netflix's hundreds of microservices. I mean, not that I know it that well, but basically on Netflix you pay a subscription and then stream whatever you want, right? What are those services doing, exactly? There's illegal streaming websites that don't look much different, aside from the payments.
this is a limitation. For instance if you have billions of docs you need 200 tiny servers and have to deal with the communication/administration/monitoring between all of those. anything around 32gb and you will have perf drops everytime the GC works too hard..
While I'm very happy having chosen the path you suggest, I never suggest it to anyone because I think it is not realistic.

The ability to remotely patch a car seems like a double edged sword. Hasn't Tesla already had at least one example of introducing a bug through OTA updates?
That depends on your talk/work ratio...
They don't open the numbers to the public, but surely they're reported to the IP holders. Now suppose Netflix is about to renew a deal to stream something. They go to the IP holder and say, hey this movie has been watched just 100 times this month. So we can only pay $X to renew it. What they don't say is that the suggestion algorithm deliberately avoided showing the movie to users and therefore the view numbers have been greatly reduced.
From what I've read about Tesla's software this could be a bold move.

Between the infotainment system, onboard Linux computer, autopilot, self-driving hardware, OTA updates, mobile apps, and the amount they phone home, Tesla are probably doing some of the most advanced computing in any consumer car (some deconstructions have suggested they are miles ahead here, pardon the pun).

This is great, but it all comes with additional surface area for attacks, and software engineers have spoken out about the fast paced shipping that happens at Tesla and the corners that are cut as a result.
What's the better option?

Content disappears, UI gets worse. Percentage of low-quality "original content" goes up. Market is being fragmented, so after you're done paying for what you didn't want to watch on Netflix, you pay somewhere else for the thing you did want (possibly you used to be able to get it on Netflix). Then the prices go up across the board.

You can't see how this could be annoying? "Do something else" isn't a replacement entertainment service for when people have finished their work and been outside already.
