Telsa 3 Owner here...

There is supposition among some owners that another wreck involving a Tesla, where it went under semi trailer that was crossing the road, was because it failed to recognize it as another vehicle but instead thought it saw a bridge. Which is fun because at times the car certainly did not like some bridges and would brake for them. There was also a recent article about how changing to color of pavement surfaces can cause the summon feature to pause until it sorts out what it is up against.

I have zero issues using auto pilot but I never fully trust it. If anything on long trips I use it to keep an eye on me. I can zone out, I figure many do on long monotonous drives, but it does not. So it is my back seat driver

What it all boils down to is, it is damn hard and there needs to be more regulation in this space and especially for any system which won't require a human behind the wheel.

On another Tesla issue, they should be damn ashamed their blue tooth support for smart phones does not include control over music to the extent that you can manipulate play lists, artist selection, and such, from the car but instead have to use the phone which is illegal in many states.
Looks interesting.

Thats not completely true, I know people at LEGO, and the best selling sets are Legos own Lego City and Lego Friends.
My wife read this exact article from 2013, purchased a 'Finnish Baby Box' from a private company that makes and exports them from Finland, and our baby slept in it for his first seven or eight months. It actually turns out the idea for the company itself was inspired by the same article too. Here's the follow-up from 2016 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-35834370
Maybe they value their privacy :-) More seriously this article might shed some light:

A few thoughts:

-I would've liked to be able to undo a turn, willing to even give a significant amount of earned points for it

-After some time playing, it got really boring since you really just get the hang of it and don't need to think anymore. I mean that's really the point of the game is to relax right? I'm not saying to make it harder, but maybe you can think of some things to make it more engaging. Maybe more points for certain patterns like completing blocks in a certain color order. Basically it got really boring doing the same thing and getting the same rate of points. There is no sense of exponential gain for becoming better and more efficient at the game. But that may be the goal after all, to be relaxing.

EDIT:

Additionally, this game is simple enough to have keyboard navigation. Move with arrows, wasd, or hjkl and space as the action button. For fast typists like me, I would've found that to be very pleasurable.
I’m no expert but yes, you can do anything in unsafe as in C can do anything. Unsafe Rust provides you access to raw pointers.
Here in Sweden we have BankID that is used by every bank and a multitude of other services as an authentication mechanism. It is an app on your phone, tied to your bank account and phone number where you use a passcode (or can enable FaceID on iOS) to basically sign any kind of transaction related to your tax agency number.

It is really how everywhere should be, I need to pay some bills? Add them to my online banking and when I want to send the orders I just need to send them, open the app and sign. Need to send my tax declaration? Login to the tax agency using the app and sign and validate before sending my form. Do I need to validate a payment done with my credit card that was caught and marked as possibly fraudulent (because my purchasing behaviour changed a little bit from the norm)? No worries, just open the app and validate that you are you.

And so on and so forth...

Thanks for the article! So timely! I just want to add that when it comes to a new business idea it's better to test that idea first.

Oh, give me a break. Every Lego Star Wars or Ninjago set my kids have gotten has long since been dismantled and reassembled into new creations.
well, yeah, the problem is that it's generally not a lasting effect, and it prevents you from finding a real solution.

The issue isn't whether the NRA are bad, the issue is whether they are a terrorist organisation.

There has been no evidence in the article that the NRA exists to arm terrorists.

I think people are hurt and appalled at gun violence and looking for solutions.

Unfortunately expanding the definition of terrorism to include the NRA means they will unwittingly catch other groups they may support. Eg, the EFF promotes privacy, terrorists use privacy, therefore the same misguided logic could be used there.

This won't help gun violence and will hurt other freedoms.

In your opinion, in what way does a Lego tire differ from a regular tire?

The Wiktionary definition for tyre is "The ring-shaped protective covering around a wheel which is usually made of rubber or plastic composite and is either pneumatic or solid."

More than close enough IMO.
Realisticly, Tesla has done more for self-driving cars than any company in the world. It is almost synonym with self-driving car. Mistakes are inevitable no matter what you do, so I would be careful with your last statement.
How then do you explain this part: "A similar thing happened to Tom Coates, another Californian and, as luck would have it, an expert in the internet of things. He used a Zipcar to get to the Getty Villa, part of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. His mistake was to park in a garage, where his bars went to zero and he found himself stranded as the sun went down and the museum closed and the on-staff security guards started to circle in annoyance." ??

Our kraamzorg nurse even cooked us meals! She also taught us a lot of techniques on how to get the infant to sleep. My wife looks back very fondly to the first post-natal week and the kraamzorg was a big reason. Having someone nearby who's been there before is a big stress relief for first-time parents who are full of questions and concerns that first week.
Sorry for your experience. We've actually had a decent interactions with breast-feeding support workers (and local groups). Our first had a tongue-tie which we had cut on the NHS, though it was very difficult to get them to give us any firm advice on it either way. It's sad if different trusts have such varied support.

I do agree that the health visitors probably end up being more hassle and causing more stress than they're worth. By the time of our third kid we just smiled, nodded and lied our way through every interaction until they went away.

Higher performance cables, with more robust materials, shielding, etc are almost certainly more wasteful and environmentally damaging than cheaper ones.
What do you think about this startup: Lucid Drone (https://www.luciddronetech.com/)? They use drones for cleaning houses/buildings. It's a part of YC S19 Batch 2.
Of topic a bit but I recently watched some youtube videos about people hearing for the first time, I was surprised how instant things appear to be. Thinking about it you have baby animals that can just walk after a few minutes at tbirth so it makes sense that most of the basic mechanism are pre-programmed before birth.

Actually it amazes me how many highly intelligent people do not realize benefit of visualization every little detail of work being done (because planning is hard), checklists (because people forget), communication and shared vocabulary (because projects can be huge and involve a lot of people).

Not to mention control of execution, because projects are late one day at a time.
From the article :

Nishida said that the woman’s cornea remained clear and her vision had improved since the transplant a month ago.

From what I understood, she was not blind : she had an issue that made her vision blurry and could lead to blindness over time, but she took care of it early enough it seems
My residence hall (we don't really say "dorm" in the UK any more) had these "expensive" things to hold the doors open, back in the early 2000s. It's an electromagnet connected to the fire alarm system; the door has a metal plate.

This is a safety improvement, because it avoids people propping doors open with wedges, chairs or fire extinguishers.

All the halls had them, as well as many doors in the academic buildings, whether they were new buildings or renovated 19th century buildings.

>If it's indeed really old

This is not under dispute by any archeologist.
> Why would you want to do that though?

Because I don't just listen for books for enjoyment of process itself. I love complex stories with hundred of characters and plot lines across many books. Reading something like Malazan or Wheel of Time is like a journey into another world for me and I deeply immersed into these world while exploring them. Yet amount of free time I have is limited so getting more information in short period of time is very convenient

I totally get it when some people just love to read books slowly while enjoying their coffee or looking at nature, but I'm into books for the stories and format of fast-paced audio is fine for me.

> Isn't the experience of listening to it the point? If not, why listen to it at all instead of reading a detailed summary?

I feel like you imply that by listening on high speed I miss some part of experience. Yet other than voices being just slightly distorted (after some practice it's the same voices, but faster) I get exactly the same experience as any person who listen or read unabridged book.

On other side detailed summaries are not the same thing that author designed, but someone else rehearsal which is usually far from perfect.

> All this is to say, it is misleading to think of colony collapse as a problem

It is not a problem from your point of view, or your dad's.

However, it is a big problem for the ecosystem in general. Bees are an important mechanism and colony collapse is going to have long lasting effects on many other things.

Email: rkop[at]protonmail.com

I'm a junior developer with almost a year of professional experience in Java and database administration, and more than ten years of tinkering with various technologies on my own (including webdev, gamedev, Android development and minor freelance work). So, as a self-taught developer, I'm capable and more than willing to learn new things rapidly. Currently I'm interested in Python and NLP/AI, but I'm open to other options, so feel free to email me.
Now compare this to Italy, where my wife was denied an epidural injection for 4 hours, depleted all of her strength from enduring so much pain for so much time, finally got the epidural which an apprentice failed to perform properly resulting in my wife having her right side paralyzed for the rest of the childbirth.

That led her having to stay completely laid down, and to several nurses literally hopping on top of her and pushing our baby into life using their elbows like it's 1900 again.

Then, nobody helped her into start feeding our baby and while the baby was loosing more and more weight day by day, once at home we had to call a private obstetrician and I BEGGED HER ON THE PHONE to come save my baby and my wife.

She came over to our house, showed us what to do and how to do it, and almost two years later my baby is now a giant just like me.

That page looks like it has a login-wall, which is not a good first experience.

In contrast, check out these dApps which are immediately usable, https://d.tube/ & https://notabug.io/ (they're GUN based, but I know Blockstacks should be able to do this too).
Their state of mind as determined how and by whom though?

This just makes it easier for whoever happens to be in power to deny rights to [disliked or marginalized group]

Also the connection between gun violence and mental health is extremely tenuous, and I would add that firearm homicides in the states are at a multi-decade low right now, though the media would have people believe otherwise
I'm not very experienced with git. I use `git rebase` to pull changes from a remote into my private repo in order to prepare pushing my changes. My understanding of rebase is that it takes a commit history with one parent and replays them all onto a different parent. So I don't understand how rebasing would destroy history. Could someone explain what the issue is?

Ours is a teaching hospitals trust, and a fairly large one I suppose, and we have had good experiences each time with our three children. I think there can be a big difference if you end up in a medical-led ward instead of a midwife-led one for the actual birth, but I expect there's lots of variance beyond that.
Interesting idea, but ultimately drones are not strong enough to do what they want. It would need to carry itself, the tube, and counteract the force from the spray. Flight time is probably going to be way low.

I hope they do not start using remote controlled cars on highways.

A car going at 60mph (~100kmh) travels at 26m/second. 4G has a ping of ~70ms* on top of the time from the cell tower to the operator's computer.

However, I found quite a variance in pings when browsing on the phone, anywhere from 200-300ms at times (maybe due to changing the tower).

So round trip might be at 600ms. Then we account for variance in bandwidth, human reaction time etc.
All in all we might be looking at a delay of at least 1s. Guesstimating, of course. That's still 26m of a 2 ton vehicle going at 100kmh without oversight.

It's a solved issue, in that the cell company "simply" has to spend enough on infrastructure to cover the desired area.

Justifying the business case to cover the low value (i.e. few customers) areas is another story. However, even here, it might be possible to justify it if the rest of the customer base sufficiently values wide coverage to pay a premium. Particularly if the competitors don't have the same level of coverage.

Resigning on parental leave is probably common, but on the other hand the paid leave was at least not paid by the company. And at that point the company will most likely have a trained temp, so seen that way it's not a bad time to quit (although you could of course have given that notice a while before returning).

Maximizing the use of paid parental leave I see as pretty much a given. I don't think many see it as the most important factor for planning a pregnancy, but I absolutely want to maximize the amount of paid leave I can take. My kids are 6 and 8 and I still do multiple weeks of parental leave per year. Typically doubling my summer holiday from 4 to 8 weeks or similar. It's a benefit I have paid for many times over. There have been suggestions though that this is an unncessarily luxury and it would be better (for children) if parents had to use the majority of the parental leave before age 3 instead. I kind of agree.
Edit: I have not seen anything coming from the economic literature about remote work. Sadly economists are focused on bigCorps and VCs who are not remote-friendly.

In any e-commerce business you have challenges like:

1. Getting traffic to online store.

2. Converting it to sales.

3. Able to deliver it to customers in time.

4. Service the complaints or product in time.

Out of this website traffic is directly linked to assortment and sales is directly linked to price (value for money vis a vis quality) and delivery besides traffic. Logistics i.e. storing, sorting and last mile delivery is one of the toughest challenges to solve in this business. Amazon used UPS, FedEx and USPS in the beginning to help them understand how its done, acquire expertise. They took that knowledge and than applied technology to solve some of the challenges and reduce costs.

It was just a matter of time they become full logistics company, because in reality every retailer and distributor is primarily a logistics company with stores, warehouses and distribution center.

So it's hardly surprising they are competing with them. But I feel UPS, FedEx still do many other B2B supply chain work like delivering components to manufacturing site, vendor managed inventory, defence supplies, government supply chain, Olympics, major events and sports supply chain etc. so there will still be room for them to grow.
> First hit this year was that they sued a small Lego shop in Frankfurt called "Held der Steine". His logo was a standing brick, but it could have been any brick, no Lego logo was seen or whatnot. They sued him for infringement of their trademarks anyway. That gave quite a huge media wave, I think the video of "Held der Steine" on YouTube where he lays out what happened has seven figure views.

He tried to trademark that logo and sell merchandise with it.

Using stuff that looks like LEGO trademarks is fine, trademarking it and selling your own merchandise with it obviously is not.
