I'd wager that over 90% are. It literally go's from me driving the route all by myself to me driving in an endless caravan of car's once Waze starts recommending the route. For this route, it's not even just Waze. Apple recommends the route as well.

It’s generally accepted that more lanes does not equal less traffic, and can often lead to the opposite effect due to the effect of induced demand [1]. I personally believe providing multiple alternative transport options is more effective but obviously that’s a matter of opinion...

There are most definitely programming-help subreddits on Reddit so I'm not sure what you're on about, besides insisting that we need the toxicity of StackOverflow due to "reasons".
Palo Alto has quite a few as well. Some are just marked with signs, many have physical barriers allowing only bikes and large trash collection vehicles to easily pass.
The extension is included in the standard sqlite [amalgamation](https://www.sqlite.org/amalgamation.html), hence it's basically always available (ie you'd have to manually disable it) (ime).

It's worth noting that sqlite's typing is very flexible, so you probably want to add a `check (data is null or json_valid(data) = 1)` to ensure the data is _actually_ valid json.

You can then index based on json queries, eg `create index some_index on something((json_extract(data, '$.someField')))` and then do an indexed query, eg `select * from something where json_extract(data, '$.someField') = 'blah'`.

In our experience it's all working quite well :-)

(Groking json_each and json_tree took a few goes, but now is working well (eg we join onto json_each to allow a row "labels" containing a list of label (rather than a one-to-many table join for something_labels)).)
I had no idea Waze was powered by anon crowd sourced map editors. If anybody here is doing it, what's the motivation? Personally I'd never disclose my shortcuts or free parking spots.
Excellent!

Generally, trees are poor for performance as you zig-zag around memory and stall on cache misses. But in situations where you have to do tree traversal and you have to be as fast as possible, trading the memory for the parent pointer (which probably fits within the same cache line as the rest of the node anyhow, so in practice basically free) vs recursion or an explicit stack which stress memory in the tight loop, it is probably a winner! Definitely worth profiling in those situations.

It's likely because of those dark patterns that they can use it in the first place given how walled garden app stores treat apps that do allow for actual anonymous or distributed messaging systems.
For about six months before I moved closer to work I had a super commute between Olympia, WA to Kent, WA just south of Seattle. I do not recommend this.

Anyways- for the first month or so I used Waze religiously as this is a notoriously bad commute. I realized after a few nasty trips through Fife that unless you were among th very first few people to catch a rerouting, the roads people were routed to were painfully undersized to handle freeway traffic. I have not used Waze since and am very cautious when following Google map redirections.
Xcode is able to dynamically generate a development provisioning profile, even if you do not have a (paid) developer account. So side-loading is definitely possible, in some respects.
My small town did this 20 or 30 years ago with a number of residential streets that were commonly [ab]used for shortcuts. They erected barriers that consist of a curb across the roadway and a series of three or four "no entry" and "dead end" signs. Inconvenient, but it stops through traffic.

Tucson and Phoenix have another alternative. The cities are built with the main roads being a large grid. Subdivision roads are twisty and higgledy-piggledy. It's almost always too inefficient to cut through a subdivision to bother trying.
What about Usenet? I was happy with Dejavu!
Google maps and Apple maps traffic is cross sourced anonymously too
Well that was a rabbit hole to fall into. The emergence stuff reads like pseudoscience to me, though.
My city seems to do this with more unorthodox methods: cheap out on road maintenance and engineering.

Oh sure, take that side street with all of the sunken sewer grates.

My mom’s street was riddled with potholes. We were happy when they repaved it, but blew it when they put up speed bumps.
That site is so good for finding in-depth discussion of topics. Just a lot of people throwing ideas around, way more useful for finding leads and inspiration compared to the fairly bland Wikipedia articles many of the topics have.

> But for as long as they've been around there have always been people who get worked up over those sites not being quite what they want them to be. And what they want want them to be is usually a place where anything goes, and/or a place where they can more effectively earn some form of imaginary internet points, or at least not have meanies downvote them or reject their contributions.

This is a straightforward downside of gameification. You've attached badges to being assholes to people who are part of your content creation process, what you get is people who are assholes. Then you end up in a spiral where your community is so toxic that everyone normal leaves, and the only people you are left with are the toxic assholes.

The problem is that Wikipedia and SO are both classic examples of Sayre's Law in action: "In any dispute the intensity of feeling is inversely proportional to the value of the issues at stake". It's such a meaningless argument that any reasonable person comes to the conclusion that it's not worth the trouble and leaves, so you are left with only the unreasonable people.

In reality, the type of person who takes pleasure in being a Wikipedia moderator or Stack Overflow badgeguy is the last person in the world who you would actually want to be a moderator. But everyone who's not toxic has left.
This comment gave me my good chuckle of the evening. Cheers for that.
1) It doesn't seem to be a principled decision to stay out of the App Store on the part of Serval's author, who says "trying to get the app approved for release on the Apple App Store. But that will be an adventure for another day."

https://servalpaul.blogspot.com/2018/11/serval-chat-ios-port...

2) This wasn't planned out months in advance. This is a protest that is organically sprouting up. Nobody wants to add jailbreaking or xCode to the onboarding process for people to join a protest movement.

3) I think worrying about Apple tracking what apps you install is the least of anyone's problems there at the moment.
And by raising the aggravation and discomfort levels. Some people will avoid streets with speed bumps if they can find an alternate route because they dislike them so much.
I agree certainly about intentional cheating, but I meant that if you pay attention you often see other people unintentionally using such cues, where they often get the right answer for the wrong reason. (And by symmetry we are probably all "guilty" of this to one extent or another).

Especially in how people think machines work: the user facing interface is optimized for these naive interpretations, while the true operation is hidden because of complexity that "would confound us".

The word “retard” is one I find quite offensive.

With respect, I believe that this website is derogatory in word, and therefore should not be supported or linked to.

I don’t disagree with the underlying precept, that the old “English” measurement system is backward and should be eliminated. But I do violently disagree with the word that was chosen to represent this position.

LA is a very strange place to me - I read about all this havoc, but whenever I fly in there and do stuff it seems fairly quiet and almost somnabulent.
You can install what’s called “Modal Filters”: A series of barriers that lets pedestrians and cycles pass, but blocks cars. This slightly inconveniences local traffic, but blocks through traffic.
Surveillance is nothing new in South Africa. It is not even a secret. We have a regulation with a name that fully disclose that your communications can be intercepted. It is called RICA, which is short for Regulation of Interception of Communications and Provision of Communication-Related Information Act 70 of 2002 [1].

When you buy a new SIM card, you have to register it using your identification document and proof of residence. Every legally obtained SIM card is accountable. That way they wil know they are intercepting communication of the right person.

That’s not entirely true. Their response came after a lot of outrage and fear by the general population.

This outrage came after some top pro-Beijing politicians said that declaring an emergency situation is still on the table, by doing so, it would allow the government to block certain internet services.

Pro-Beijing politicians always use harsh language. The same way PLA officers hinted that the PLA could be deployed in HK if requested by the government.
Since it's artificially crafted character, it's not part of unicode, therefore the transmission of the character will be through images, so to ban this character it's no different from banning Winnie the Pooh pictures, by using state-of-the-art deep neural networks to classify images.

To avoid the ban, one has to use the most common characters which must be statistically insignificant to computer recognition programs, like how most network apps obfuscate their traffic to https.

Why is this articled titled this way? It seems very negative to me, and if I had just read the headline and moved on I would have assumed the diet was a silly, maybe even dangerous, fad. The article explains why the science is sound and ends with the author happy with the results, planning on doing the diet again in three months.

Is it just me who interpreted the title this way?

It seems to me that Waze isn't the problem. I've seen very similar problems where I live. When the freeway gets backed up, as it inevitably does, traffic spills out into awfully designed city streets.

I once got stuck in small neighborhood for 2 hours while the freeway was backed up and that was before Waze existed.

In Southern California we have massive urban sprawl most of which is filled with cul-de-sacs within cul-de-sacs. Waze isn't the problem it's just exacerbating it.

Can't this just be banned? "It is illegal for any individual or corporation to offer a driving route that uses streets designated as "Local" when the travel distance using streets marked as "Express" is shorter. Violators will be assessed a fine of $1000 per route offered."
My hometown did this in the late 90's, added three barriers across intersections to cut a neighborhood in half. Here's someone recently suggesting removing them to alleviate traffic on the main north/south road (under construction for the last two years or so), but I doubt anything would happen to them:

https://www.centredaily.com/news/local/community/state-colle...

Traffic bound for North Atherton (bottom left of map) has to go down to the intersection with Park instead of taking Allen.

Easy enough to take a bike through them, I used to ride that way regularly in to campus. But I think it's worked well to not have cars shortcutting through the neighborhood at high speeds.
Very few things in life are priced for billionaires. Millionaires, sure, but a lot of people forget that a billionaire is literally 1000 millionaires, or the equivalent wealth of 80,000 people at the poverty line. It's pretty hard for anyone to fathom that egregious level of personal wealth.
It'd be interesting if the cost were something like "vote on these items in the moderation queue", and they'd only get through if they voted in line with existing votes (with a few new items mixed in).
The idea being to help cut down on work for mods by getting some prioritization based on new/young user votes. By mixing in topics that have been voted on, the user can be convinced that they have to vote honestly, and by gathering a large number of votes on actual posts mixed in, things can be roughly classified reliably.

By voting I'm referring to things like whether or not a question is a duplicate of another etc.

Going to an SSD is like going EV vs petrol car. You'll be blown away by how obviously inefficient decades-old technology feels. Even a cheaper SSD is much faster than a top-of-the-line HDD - and the analogy to EVs hold here as well.
Not talked about here - that the upper (and middle) class intentionally built their communities to be minimally accessible to keep the riffraff out. That of course making the traffic hell that people are trying to get away from. Nobody can live near where they work because they can’t afford it. Traffic is as much a housing and economic problem as it is an engineering one.
Rail was in fact critical for supply during the US Civil War. The Siege of Petersburg, whose eventual loss doomed the Confederacy, hinged on the important rail junction in the town. That's just one of many examples.

Use of rail in the America conflict prefigured its application the war of 1870 and of course WWI.

The IRS filing your taxes automatically would be a start.
In natural language, the number of unique words is large but some of them tend to be highly correlated, which means significant implicit redundancy.

Example: For years, they have strived to make a ....... in the community.

Only a few possibilities out of 30,000-100,000 English words in use can fit properly in the blank.

Thus, many tasks, even those designed to test for real understanding, can be “solved” pretty well by putting together a number of relatively shallow cues. BERT and similar models learn from huge datasets (billions of bytes) and they probably capture millions of those correlations in the model. (These models are indeed wonderful accomplishments and are very useful for many things, but not ultimate solutions to true natural language understanding.)

For more info, see: https://super.gluebenchmark.com/

I agree with the author that we need even better datasets evolved under public scrutiny since some of the datasets we currently have are already designed very well by their authors but the problem of designing datasets that can withstand correlation detections by DNNs (and still amenable to standardized evaluation method) could be too challenging for any single team under limited time.
3) I think the worry is China forcing Apple to produce this info (list of HK users with said app installed), not what Apple themselves would do with it. Maybe not a dealbreaker, but something to consider...
By that logic we shouldn't upgrade internet infrastructure either.

Rail was a hugely impactful tool during the US Civil War.

I would guess that geography and the demographics of the American west are as much to blame as the relative lack of continental conflict in the rail era.
Android Studio is heavy, but throwing hardware at it does help.

With 8GB RAM I'd check if you're not reaching into swap already. Android Studio alone uses a good chunk of that. Then add an emulator, and a memory hungry browser, and you're swapping.

That’s fine. The point isn’t the dictate what people do. It’s to offset their negative externalities.
Would this be considered the standard amount of things someone would need to work out to get a bsd laptop up and useable?(or are there more preconfigured images?) Are Thinkpads best for support?
Interesting, so you're suggesting that the Google and Apple navigation apps are also crowd-sourced social networks like Waze? If that's true I wonder why Waze is singled out for these types of articles.
The baseband radio still communicates with the tower in airplane mode.
This was my impression when I visited. I was entirely taken by how genuinely drivable the place was. The traffic was all quite tolerable, far better than what I regularly encounter in Minneapolis.
> You can get rid of any stacks whatsoever by keeping a parent pointer in the tree node data structure. Effectively, this turns the tree into a (sort of) state machine.

How can it be a state machine if you aren't mutating it?

In fact, you can traverse a tree without recursion (or any equivalent stack-like structure) and without parent pointers. And then you actually use the tree as a state machine: you stash the reverse path pointer in the tree itself by overwriting the downward links temporarily and then putting them back.

This is useful for garbage collection; you can have a garbage collector that is guaranteed never to blow the stack in the marking phase.
Considering the cost of launching on Ariane compared to Falcon 9, especially with rideshare upcoming, I don't think EU could ban companies from flying with SpaceX without hurting their own commercial satellite market to an extent.
If you require the highest performance and your trees are write once, read often (and immutable), it's worth looking into if you should just sort the nodes in traversal order in one contiguous block of memory. Storing the edges as indices into the block is handy in this case.

The article used parent pointers in node to avoid using a stack (native or custom made). One downside of a parent pointer is that your identical subtrees can no longer share structure.

Components of each of the three characters are in the constructed character. I think it's the top two components of the first, the full second character, and the left and right components of the third.

When driving around the DC beltway I found it indispensable. But I did not follow it blindly. I used it over the course of months to find what routes had potential and which did not, and a lot of times I got stuck unnecessarily in side road traffic. This taught me a few viable routes for when the beltway really was gridlocked. It also taught me how to gauge the level of traffic reports for how early I needed to bail from the freeway onto side roads, or stick it out if it would clear up.

I'm at the point where I check Google Maps, then Apple maps (to confirm Apple maps isn't sending me to the wrong place) then close Google maps - Gmaps rerouting can be horrible, and is opt-out which can be tough to notice sometimes.

In this light Elon Musk's Boring Company seems more reasonable.
I feel like I must be missing something because the following potential solutions seem obvious to me:

- Mark a street as "No thru traffic," or charge tolls (via video camera) to vehicles not registered in the neighborhood and not stopping on the street.

- Suspend the driver's license of anyone using Waze, and use that as negotiating leverage with Waze to give edit access to city planners.

What's preventing local/state government from doing so?
