True. It's not good. But I'd argue we should also not include them in the same category, because they dilute the severity of the matter.

Sorry to be cruel, but I'm passionate about drunk and distracted driving. Less so about drunk pedestrians. I'd really like to focus our efforts and not get distracted.

Let's start a separate conversation about texting pedestrians. I'll join. But please let's keep this one about just this one thing: people putting others' lives at a significant risk on a daily basis. It's a different ballgame.
I'm referring to comparing your existing job to a new one. Everyone does this and it can't be rare.

You have to look at quality of work, work life balance, the area, commute time, cost of living, salary, 401k match, benefits, chance of advancement, company culture, job safety, bonus amount, job security...etc. For a lot of people the choice is a no-brainer, but there are comparable and even worse jobs out there.

I apologise for the seemingly privledged attitude, but I'm assuming most on HN are Software Developers, Engineers, Mathematicians, and Scientists which generally have options and change jobs on occasion. Every single person who changed has done a pro/con comparison. Even if it was a no-brainier, the comparison would've taken place subconsciously.

I noticed this when I was a kid- I was playing with lego space ships one day and suddenly realized I could no longer visualize an actual space ship- it just looked a lego thing. I thought it was odd and sort of forgot about it until recently when somebody else said they were troubled by it.

Discovering 3D rendering was a huge thing for me- suddenly, rather than having to work incredibly hard to visualize things in my head (or do mental rotations on them), I could build a model world and move things around until I saw what I needed (this was super helpful for molecular structures, but also for neural network architectures and complex workflows).
Pretty neat. You can see this exact approach in the Go standard library: https://golang.org/src/math/bits/bits.go#L35

Nowadays, of course, ctz gets compiled down to a single instruction (e.g. bsf on x86) :)
It's not exactly the same as what you described, but apt-offline[1][2] comes close. You run it on the offline machine to obtain a "signature" which is then used on the online machine to download the correct set of packages.

I worry about the phrase "possible" in there. If you're in a place with no opportunity, you may genuinely believe that the best possible life for you isn't a very good one, and thus rate yourself near the top even though you're unhappy.
Convenient to exclude the fact that hydro requires a specific geology and willingness to destroy river ecosystems for it to work.
We're saddled with these vestiges of the early 20th century because of Prohibition. But that period has long since passed. The new reason for keeping them is the revenue stream. This is often justified by the "societal cost" of alcohol because it is more fashionable to use that as the excuse, rather than money.
"Netflix does not have access to information about the device to which a user is streaming ... not having this information means it can't certify the target device to ensure a quality experience."

You have to be very specific about "publicly accessible on the Internet". This has to mean in a searchable, interlinked, HTML format.

What the NFPA[1] does with its codes is to make them "available" through this horrible Java reader applet that prevents you from printing, selecting, copying and pasting or doing anything except looking at one page at a time. Oh, and half the time it's broken, or you have an incompatible version of Java or some other nonsense. It's a mess.

From a paper on aphantasia I read a while ago I recall that the difference is about which brain functions you use. Spatial thinking vs. visual. The former works fine in aphantasia, the latter does not.

As I understand it it's the difference between decomposing the barn into a cube and a prism, performing perspective projection on it, without the help of a ruler, and then rasterizing that into a 16x16 grid while also assigning colors while holding all that in your working memory at the same time and only being able appreciate it as an abstract 256-item long list of colors vs. having a finished and higher-fidelity result including grass and sky hallucinated by your visual system with little mental effort, allowing you to use the same downstream processing that you can also use when looking at the actual thing.

Maybe there's a bug in the live streaming setup that Hulu offers then? I just pay for ad-free Hulu, and I haven't seen an ad from them since a week after they announced that plan (I didn't head about it immediately, but I upgraded as soon as I did).

This absolutely drives me crazy in design/engineering decisions. Very commonly there are a lot of good solutions and one great one, and the good ones are good enough. Yet all the brilliant intellectuals want to find the VERY BEST METHOD EVER instead of just getting stuff done.
I have a hard time understanding this: what does it mean to assign probabilities to one-off events?? The only way to verify probabilities predictions is to test it a great number of times. Otherwise you can say anything and never be wrong (except for 0 or 100%).

These countries do not exist. There is no county getting by without burning fossil fuels or using nuclear for baseload somewhere. The 100% you might be thinking of are countries that import fossil/nuclear baseload during lulls and export spare renewables during high generation times for a “net 100% renewable”. This is a start, but it’s marketing bullshit because it’s not actually sustainable for all countries to do that. Someone needs to provide baseload.
Indirect costs are everything that you need to do research that can't be directly allocated to the research. So you use research funds to pay a researcher, buy chemicals or equipment, etc. Indirect funds cover everything else: real estate costs, power, water, sewer, trash collection, Internet, WiFi and phone, building maintenance, HVAC, etc. When we build buildings to house researchers, all of the costs related to those buildings and space are covered by indirect funds.

It also covers a bunch of human costs, such as the staff handling payroll, grant reporting and other compliance costs around the grant, the campus fire protection and police departments, etc. etc.

If ICC generates less revenue, they won’t be able to fund as many new building codes. Wouldn’t that result in a less fractured and more simplified code system? Wouldn’t that be a good thing?
2k, probably not much issue... though, last time I used a netbook (I used one as my main mobile for a few years after my last mbp was stolen). Mostly just RDP to my actual desktop for anything beyond basic web stuff, which was a pretty decent experience all things considered.
None of those three seem to fit my experience of visualising things. I can conjure the image of a triangle in my mind with my eyes open without any difficulty, I can move it around, I can change its colour, I can make it shrink and grow; but it's not superimposed on what I'm looking at. It's as if I had a second pair of eyes looking at a scene entirely controlled my my imagination.

Isn't that what the "mind's eye" is?
When we pay less than $10/gb for ram and our systems have 32 gb and more, I do consider it acceptable. As long as the speed of development and feature implementation is sufficiently improved of course.

Trying to use voice input is more distracting to me than typing. And it's easier to take a break in the middle of typing. Not to mention that voice input almost never works, and i end up typing anyway, which means I'm distracted and angry. Native californian, I mumble, but otherwise no speech pathology; but maybe i try to enunciate too hard because the computer doesn't understand me.
No, igloos were never the norm as far south as Minneapolis because the wide temperature swings make them untenable. Native Americans burned the fuck out of wood for heat and that’s terrible for the environment if we all do it.

The reason for it to be the user's login password is that, in the common case where you plug a keyboard into a computer that's just booted or which has been unattended for awhile, you're already typing a login password, so it isn't making you do anything you weren't doing already.
I'm absolutely curious, have you ever tried to draw something, in any way? When you were a kid or more recent? What did you/could you draw, and where does it seem like the image of the drawing came from?
100% agreed. It’s a perfect analogy, they even drive in a similar manner. Slightly off from the flow of traffic, staying too close to the edge of a lane. Heck I even saw a Houston Police officer in his cruiser texting and driving today. As I get older and grouchier I get more and more infuriated by distracted driving. Most people would be infuriated if a passenger put their hand up in front of their face while driving, yet we have people do it to themselves every day. I’m opposed to a nanny state, but this is one area that I wouldn’t argue that loudly about regulation around phone use while driving.
My laptop battery sure does. Electron is legitimately wonderful, but apps built on it are often horrible CPU hogs.

There are forms of mindfulness and meditation practice that don't require visualization, and in fact are quite the opposite. A typical exercise is to pay focused attention to a particular body part, sensation, or environmental aspect.
I mean, the solution seems pretty obvious to me - if the codes are legally-binding, their development should be funded by the governments which use them.
The implicit premise of the article is that university professors shouldn’t be brushing up against the floor of society. That’s odious.

Sorry to hear about this. I ride a bike with a helmet cam and I started narrating observations unlikely to be caught by camera. I'll often say something like "distracted driver" when a distracted driver is nearby. It's not perfect, but it might help in situations like this.

I have found from experience that reading off people's license plate numbers tends to make them nervous, but that hasn't stopped me from doing it.

> DUI and driving while using your phone should have equal punishment.

Totally agree. Tickets, insurance penalties, loss of license, jail if necessary. Every phone-addicted driver is just a murder waiting to happen.
That's a very valid point. One of the main reasons for introducing a new visual language (apart from purely artistic ones) was to intentionally inject a dose of ambiguity into the readings. Our existing visual systems (words, numbers) are implying preciseness which is not always there with weather forecasts (it is decreasing the further away you go from the current point in time), and I was trying to break away from that.
People assume they can handle driving while texting.
There should be an instant ban from driving, you are not allowed to continue your journey, and for at least a week after. Plus fine.

It is ridiculous how lenient the laws are. 40,000 people die every year on our roads.
Yes, I’m at fault simply for backing out into the lane as far as the insurer is concerned. I’m also at fault for not having eyes in superposition. I can’t simultaneously see out of my rear left and rear right.

All to say, you weren’t there and don’t know what happened. And I’ll leave it at that.
> Why not check your phone while at a stop sign?

I attempted to answer that question recently.

yes but happiness perception is subjective and depends on what information they get
Another reason is it can help make testing more simplified. Instead of having to use a library to perform mocking or stubbing of specific functions within the objects, you can pass in fake instances of objects that help exercise the test properly. So instead of trying to mess around with the internals of an inherited object structure, you just redefine the objects during testing to meet your needs.

In other words, objects are composed of their dependent objects. I think this is where the idea of dependency injection comes from (though I find dependency injection frameworks complicated often, that's another story).
Sounds like it is similar to the MSP program now then.
Actual paying users would be better than millions of users that just want to complain. At this point with so much immorality online, what browser you use is just a matter of taste.
The picture we conjure up in our mind is also not the most detailed picture. It's not exact. It's a very blurry image but not in the same sense that an image is made blurry through a camera lens. It's also not an image, but a 3D model and it usually sits in some sort of relevant but made up setting.

For example. If I was told to imagine a barn, the first image to pop up is the barn. For no apparent reason, the barn is red.

How many windows does the barn have? No clue, didn't even realize that the barn had some windows. I can then sort of materialize the windows into a concrete amount (two for example). But do note that before I thought about the windows the 3D model of the barn existed in a state that can only be conjured by the imagination. The barn literally had an unknown amount of windows, not no windows or some windows, but I just wasn't thinking about the windows. The other weird part of this is that we don't consciously realize that the model is incomplete, yet if we took this incomplete model of the barn and put it in the real world we can then instantly identify this inconsistency and weirdness.

Also for no apparent reason the barn is sitting on a grass field and it's dusk.

If you can dream, the image is exactly the same as your dream. Blurry three dimensional objects that can materialize in greater detail as you focus.
The majority of ICC’s revenue comes from program services, including consulting, certification, and training, which do not rely on profiting by limiting access to the law.

In addition, the laws are written by volunteers. ICC convenes committees of volunteers who author the law. That's how the run such huge profit margins.

Unfortunately so too are the problems with homelessness, drugs and mental health. I've seen a woman nearly punch a window out because she got angry at her reflection while tweaking out on something.
I don't think the definition of "bring up the image" is clear here. I can sort of do the 3rd thing, but I certainly couldn't draw a projected outline of that mental image.

Am I supposed to literally see a triangle? I can't do that. As far as I can tell, I'm "imagining it." The triangle doesn't interfere with anything I see, it's not really anchored to anything visual, and, while I can alter it, the triangle is not specific. It's a fairly ephemeral imagination or idea that I can conjure up. Most importantly, I'm not "seeing it," I'm "picturing it" or "imagining it"
The counter point is that with dark matter you can just keep adding more dark matter until it fits with observations.

As a cyclist, I try to keep as much space from a car as I can. A particularly worrying time for me is when I am traveling around the same speed as a car. So many times I have almost been hit, and a few time shit by someone just turning. This is not a problem when you are passing cars or they pass you, because they see you.

But yes, fuck people using their phones while driving. It happens every single day, every third car sometimes.
Went a little off the deep end there, didn’t we?
I can visualize things, but only for a brief moment. Then, it takes intentional effort to bring up the image again.

I can also visualize something rotating or in motion (or my minds eye in motion) for a few seconds. I often feel a little dizzy when I do this.

Can most people create a mental image and hold it for a long time?
The problem for Apple is they don't know you're not a passenger.
At this point can I just pay for a certificate or something?

Like for $1 give me a certificate that I can use to say "I'm not a spammer" and I can anonymously buy as many certificates as I want.

And then if a certificate is used by a spammer it becomes invalid. Seems like it's expensive enough to be worth using for existing spammers but let normal people pay a $1 every year or two to not have to deal with captchas.
