>In cities the differential between the speed of bikes and cars is smaller than between bikes and pedestrians.

I find that hard to believe. A bike can easily move at a walking speed among the pedestrians, while a car would never drive at a bike speed unless forced to.
The lack of this feature is why, for myself, PostgreSQL Row Level Security has been a non-starter.

After all, without a feature like this, you can't query on behalf on multiple users at a time without also encoding your RLS rules in some app queries, and caching becomes more difficult to implement as it now cannot be implemented independently of the app.

Is there any way to retrofit this behavior onto Postgres?
Why is carplay even a thing?

Geez, can't people stop fiddling with their phones?

> Sections 2 and 3 are particularly relevant in this case

Are you able to excerpt a few sentences from sections 2 and 3 that you believe are the most compelling?
Sure, safety and precision critical mechanisms are still served better by controls with tactile feedback. I happily recognize that.
Excellent decision for Mazda. They've been optimizing everything for years, tho a bit lagging with their electronics UI. The touchscreen was already disabled when rolling (faster than ~5mph), so losing it entirely is a step forward.

The touchscreen UI when driving is also a very bad design. Touchscreens have no tactile feedback, so require focused visual attention to operate, taking not only the mental focus away from the road environment, but also moving the eyes well away from the road so losing much of the peripheral vision that can 'save' the driver by noticing unexpected motion.

Even as a racer with training on shifting attention between road, traffic, mirrors, surround, & instruments, I've found that any attempt to put a complex phone UI in a car significantly degrades my driving performance. Don't take me wrong, I love having the Android Auto maps up on the screen of my new CX-5.

But, the usability, even using the knob, is a constant distraction, and I far too often find myself squandering far too many microseconds on the UI trying to adjust the map, when I should have switched focus back to the road. It is a genuine hazard, and I've got training to manage it, and still often fail.

The primary, and almost singular goal of any driving or piloting UI must be to reduce the driver's workload. ANY few microseconds squandered on hesitation about the desired operation of the UI or just figuring out it's current state can become deadly.

This is an entirely different goal and threat structure from any ordinary computer or mobile device UI/UX design. Anyone doing it must be fully retrained and reoriented towards these goals, and pursue them relentlessly.
>The Tesla's all-touchscreen situation in particular seems like a terrible idea.

Don't knock it until you've tried it. First off, you are completely wrong about it being an all-touchscreen situation. There are plenty of physical controls. Many people like you form conclusions based on not knowing anything about the car other than what you are told by other people. Think for yourself. Take one for a test drive.
I think your perspective makes sense, and I agree with it for the most part. I just feel that there is an underlying tension at the root of it.

Although hacker culture is mostly as you describe it, I would say that many hackers are also contributing to making the world more monarchical, even if they might not perceive their actions as such. The way tech is changing society and the way tech companies are evolving is pointing the way towards a resurgence of a somewhat feudalistic power structure with capital-owners at the helm supported by a caste of highly educated or skilled professionals, and the remainder of the population in dire economic straits.

That's why the "It's [current year]!" argument rings hollow to me. Most hackers will become either capital owners or part of the higher caste, because they will have skills that make them economically adaptable.[0] The largest part of their work ultimately helps increase inequality since whatever productivity gains are largely captured by the new feudal lords, so to speak. This is hardly an original or profound insight since wages have been stagnating for years and inequality has been skyrocketing. With automation, something identical to absolute monarchy will take place in all but name. A revolution will then be impossible since the Panopticon will have become real, the Third Estate will no longer be needed at all, and means of exchange will eventually become digitized.

You end up with hackers who have the luxury to discuss freedom and the big bad System even as they pauperize most of the population on Earth and contribute to that same system. Not every hacker does of course, but enough do to make it a concern.

My GTD Workflow to Fight the LeBlanc's Law
You seem to be equating touchscreens with safety and quality. These do not go hand in hand - the underlying system can be absolute crap with a touchscreen (remember old dedicated GPS units?), or they could be Tesla-equivalent but with a weird physical button input system.

> Sometimes that means interacting with the navigation interface while under way, whether it’s due to updating a route, checking for traffic, zooming in and out.

You shouldn't be fiddling with the navigation system while driving - you should do that while you're still in park. Even when I look down at my phone to see what lane I need to be in for a second, it's amazing how much distance passes when going at highway speeds. Unless you are using autopilot, it's dangerous to mess around with the map, and it's not that hard to pull over to do it, either.

The devil is, as always, in the detail. Here, the 'air pollution' is oxides of sulphur, which are a consequence of the use of nearly regulation free dirty bunker fuel by ships.

If the measurement is CO2, or other pollutants, it's almost certainly less bad comparatively (though in no way clean).
The article mentions only GPS. Most modern receivers can use multiple systems for redundancy; GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou. They can also provide accurate timing. https://gssc.esa.int/navipedia/index.php/Time_References_in_...

It's not clear if they use GPS as synonym for all available GNSS or is the study GPS only?

EDIT: I skimmed the document. The underlying assumption seems to be that US based industries don't have or don't use multi-constellation capability.

>In looking across the many sectors and applications that require GPS’s accuracy and precision, it becomes clear that GPS has some attributes of a utility. The signal is a public good and service provided by the U.S. government that enables productivity, quality, and efficiency benefits that would not otherwise be possible. For many years, it was the only comprehensive PNT signal available. Signals are now available
from GLONASS (Russia), Galileo (Europe), and BeiDou (China). The global marketplace means that many devices are increasingly capable of receiving signals from multiple constellations. In the United States, however, critical infrastructure, industries, and applications leverage the GPS signal.
I live in Hungary, EU and most of the retail stores sells laptops with FreeDOS. Or you can choose that you want FeeDOS or Windows. But most people goes with FreeDOS obviously as you pay less and you get Windows on your "own way"

Why FreeDOS tho? Good question I never thought about it but I also never seen Linux on retail store laptops
I oppose banning anything... We just need to take the externalities (costs incured on the environment/population/other stake holders that are currently not included) into account and tax products/services accordingly.

That way, you both (1) reduce the environmental impact, and (2) encourage development of newer, cleaner technologies.
The person being replied to claimed falsely that it's an "all-touchscreen" UI so I would see it as a refutation. The Tesla UI is fantastic.

If there were an all-touchscreen UI (but there is not) yeah that would not be ideal as long as full self driving is not yet here.
Hyper-V machines do not have access to GPU, previous implementation is legacy and cannot be selected anymore. No one knows when the new implementation is going live.
> Supposing that the claims about IP theft are true, then the Americans should have presented some proof and they should have applied sanctions many years ago, because if there was any IP theft there was much more of it 10 years ago then now.

So just because there was more theft 10 years ago, we should not do anything about it ? 10 Years ago, the commercial product based on those theft was not damaging anyone in the US, because the quality was so low, and only chinese really could buy it. Today is different, the quality has increased and they very much plan on selling them outside of china. Just because you have cheated for the last 20 years, does not means you should be allowed to do so for the next 20, china wants to go global (no one forced them), so they should play by the same rules than everyone else.
It would be interesting to compare Carnival to the actual freight/crude vessels.

I have to imagine that all of that dwarfs carnival by a wide, wide margin.

But with flags of convenience, this is actually a semi-tough battle to fight, as they'll just reregister the ships somewhere else.

The low sulphur regulations coming into force in 2020 should help quite a bit in that these ships will have to burn cleaner fuel at the very least.
Those filters are essentially useless garbage that exist for the purpose of attracting potential buyers on a show floor. If the filters were actually desirable, most could be applied at the content level.
Carnival emits 10x the amount of one specific pollutant.

This is a seriously and intentionally misleading headline. Not to diminish the problem, which absolutely should be addressed, but the headline is journalistic malpractice.
Take a cue from your username and surrender?
There is no reason to ban them. Charge the emissions to influence behaviour and investments. We don't know what innovations can come out of this if enough pressure is applied.
So, I think the main sticking point here is the lock-in of Hyper-V. By making a new popular feature completely dependent on a technology that explicitly disables the use of competitive hypervisors, they're giving with one hand and taking with the other.

If I was on VM-Ware's executive team, I'd be seriously thinking about filing an anti-trust complaint and the open source community should be thinking about whether submarining virtualbox is worth what Microsoft is doing here.
Yes, and it does so by turning the system off almost entirely. For animation, people often disable interpolation for everything except pans. As I mentioned before, those are usually at 24 FPS already.

Sort of like how people try to conflate the problems of the earth quake and tsunami with those of Fukushima Daiichi.
It's an extension what already happens in industries such as construction. If you want to remodel your home in Florida, you'd hire a local contractor who then subcontracts people who are almost certainly illegal immigrants from Mexico to do the actual work at a much lower rate than if they hired Americans.

The reality though is that it's not really exploitation because these often illegal workers don't really have any other options. Anyone who has been to Paris will tell how expensive it is. Ideally the arbitrage between the legal contractor and the illegal sub-contractor is as small as possible but until they have better options, to them this is better than nothing.
Such as Kaufland and Real stores in Germany.
Replace migrant with child. Does this hold?
> I'm currently in Sao Paulo and the hot water setup is a little scary. There's no hot water reserve or hot water plumbing at all.

While that's a common setup, some homes have instead a "boiler" which is a large water tank heated by a electric resistance. The disadvantage is that, once you've used up all the hot water, it takes a long time to heat up again; electric shower heads are instant. Another common setup is a gas-powered heater; I never liked these, since they're dangerous (you have to be very careful to always leave the window open while they're operating, and always be mindful of leaks). Sometimes a home has more than one setup at the same time (like having the gas-powered heater for the kitchen and one service bathroom, while the main bathrooms are on a boiler or use electric shower heads).

> In homes with bad grounding

Or no grounding; I live in a relatively modern building (~30 years old) which predates the newer three-pin power plugs, and all sockets have no ground. I suppose, though I'm not certain, that the power panel for the apartment has no ground wire, with the neutral being connected to the ground only near the meter in the ground floor.
Exactly. Promising biology != clinical activity.
Yeah, it's something that gives me pause about political action against global warming: how many people who want such political action are willing to never ride a plane or a cruise ship ever again? I think few have processed that a real effort to address this problem would involve real personal sacrifice, it can't be conveniently resolved just by building a ton of solar panels and windmills.
> Uruguay has much less use of natural gas, for regulatory reasons: gas appliances can only be installed indoors if the room in which they are installed has a window to the outside that cannot be closed, thus removing the risk of explosions in the case of a gas leak. Consequently in Uruguay gas stoves are almost unheard of, and nearly all cooking is electric. Many hot-water heaters in Uruguay are still the gas-powered tankless type that is nearly universal in Argentina, though. They're just installed outdoors.

Uruguayan from Montevideo here, and I disagree with this. I've seen very very few electric kitchens. Almost all the stoves I've seen are gas powered. Most use gas tanks, and some have piped gas into their homes. Hot water heaters are usually electric, and installed indoors. You'd only have a gas heater if you have piped gas.
Emergency braking is part of autonomous driving, so ...?

Anyways, my VW has assisted emergency braking. I've had opposite issues - water splashes across sensor and the car brakes for no good reason. Generally going through a large shallow puddle and moderate speed. Happened 2 or 3 times and now I disable when driving near the beach after rain.

The pollution that the article is talking about, sulfur dioxide, isn't a component of climate change and actually tends to cool the Earth down. The amount of carbon dioxide emitted by cruise ships is far lower than that emitted by cars and in terms of carbon emissions per kilometer traveled per passenger cruise ships are pretty clean compared to other forms of transportation.
In your opinion, is it not ethical? Should people not buy the real-estate either because a company went out of business there?

True. And in theory, that's not evidence of guilt. But juries are human, so it might sway them toward guilt, at least just a little.

Also, once you have an attorney, they tell you what to say, and may even say it themselves. Indeed, they may prepare a statement, which you just read.

However, they can subpoena you, and then you do need to answer questions. With your attorney present of course. And then at trial, on the stand.

Edit: And it's not just "stay silent". You need to actually say that you're exercising your right to counsel during interrogation.

As a nice bonus this means your coordinate grid also gives a scale bar.

This makes measuring distance in nautical miles using a chart a lot more practical.
Cruise ships are almost certainly cleaner than commercial air travel as a whole. It takes a lot less energy to move a big ship with 4000 people sideways on water at 50 MPH than to lift people into the sky in 20 groups of 200 at 600 MPH. And these are close to replacement goods (less cruises = more airplanes).

The main stat on this article is dumb because cars don't really emit sulphur oxide, so obviously something that emits some will be a huge multiplier.

EDIT: This is almost certainly wrong, as other comments have pointed out to me. Not deleting it for posterity's sake.
Taxing them out of existence isn’t any different from banning them.
The new Windows Terminal is looking very nice so far:

https://github.com/microsoft/terminal

You still have to build it from source in VS 2017 or 2019, and there are a few rough edges (currently only middle click for copy/paste), but it's a great start. They should have some official binaries up pretty soon.
Saying that people are fat because they eat too much had became non-PC around 1990s from my recollection so I would not expect such a statement from any Wiki article in 2019.
The criticism isn't that the translation was a lie, but rather it didn't capture the spirit of what she was saying (possibly with the intention to mislead international media). Indefinitely is frequently understood to mean infinitely, so by using this English word it is certainly misleading.
Inches in css aren't in any way related to physical inches. CSS has no knowledge of your physical screen dimensions. Rather an inch was defined early on in the history of css as "1 inch in pixels of a 17 inch screen at 1280x1024 resolution" This happens to be 96.42 pixels, which rounded down to 96. So not only is it an obscure unit, it's also a misleading one.

On your 4k monitor 96 pixels is more than likely not an inch (unless your monitor is slightly over 42 inches), so it wont solve your small app problem in any form, it will just make things more obscure.

In addition to this, you'll also end up with many subpixel values. While this wont matter for 𝚋𝚘𝚛𝚍𝚎𝚛 in the example I posted above (as border always snaps to the nearest dp unit), it will create blurry effects on lower DPI screens for other css rules that do respect subpixel values (i.e. 𝚋𝚘𝚡-𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚘𝚠: 𝟶 𝟶 𝟶 𝟶.𝟸𝚒𝚗 #𝟶𝟶𝟶; will create a blurred border effect).

From the Wikipedia link someone else posted it looks like 100g of pomegranate is approximately 250mg, so 200g pomegranates a day to get to the point where they saw any (non clinical still) effects.
I prefer this approach as well. We shouldn’t ban anything but instead tax pollution and other externalities accordingly (high taxation level). This way solution can appear slowly, without outright banning whole industries. The principle being, you can do whatever as long as you don’t affect others.
You'll have to deal with companies that spent considerable effort exploiting those externalities and then covering it up: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/04/business/carnival-cruise-...

Or take control of your own life instead of depending on the powerful effect of your disapproval to wipe entire industries off the map?
I think you are missing the point. If you ignore people vandalizing things with swastikas, then you enable anti-Semites. It doesn't make much difference how anti-Semitic the people drawing the swastikas are. It's still creating a hostile environment for Jewish people and emboldening people with extreme views. And, yes, I think you are indeed giving people too much credit.
I think I like this variation the best, because it opens things up to bugs in tools that one has used, and other kinds of bugs that aren’t necessarily ones the candidate would have had to attempt to fix.
Large computer screen + laptop + VLC/Netflix. That's basically what I currently use my large TV for anyways.
I think it's not quite that simple. In the end run up to a bubble, there's a lot of money floating on big bets. Some of them are going to pay off. Most won't. Maybe Uber will. Maybe it won't. They say future value is priced into a stock, and this is where margin for error is the highest.

I think smart money in Uber recognizes their position as a gamble.

Regularly you hear about hundreds of millions being poured into companies like Uber and self driving tech companies. At least one of those companies is going to win big, and investors don't want to miss out.

A warning heuristic needs to have a low false positive rate; a low false negative rate is nice but is not necessary. The purpose of a warning is to detect some common errors without inconveniencing too many correct programs. If some other errors go undetected then that is a shame but at least it is no worse than the current situation.

Is the sulphur pollution they're talking about here (SOx) a climate change contributor, or is this concern about other health risks?
There's Apple's 3D Touch, which I think is pretty great but it seems like they're trying to phase it out. It'd be nice to have an iOS keyboard with some slight amount of tactile feedback - moving the cursor around with feedback feels pretty nice and makes navigation much easier than without it.
