Here's the translated PDF. Either the original Russian was hacked up already, or this translation is very iffy.
I recall debugging a "why wont this CDROM drive work on OS/2" problem. Not only did they check the ID numbers returned by the BIOS, they went so far as to query the device name string. Which in this case was the fault, as it had "8x" instead of the "2x" and "4x" versions OS/2 would accept.

They went they extra mile to step on themselves. Entertaining to watch but an expensive ticket for the ride. Linux was free, growing, far more fun, and worked better.
Your DNA is similar enough to your family that you could be implicated in a crime committed by a family member. A strong implication, that would take a very strong argument against to overcome.
I don't understand the hype around Gatsby and co. Here in France everyone uses wordpress/drupal + docker and boom. This combo works great and there is no need to reinvent the wheel.
It's unclear from the article and SPLC's own website, but it certainly looks like they label every group that wants to reduce immigration as a hate group. That's a very broad definition of 'hate'.
Might want to look into this:

If a Tesla car was driving around a parking lot in the wrong direction it definitely looks like some of those listed e.g. careless, reckless or improper driving would cover it.

So yes there is a good case to be made that it's illegal.
If it's "arrogant" to think that a startup could be anyone's top choice, then startups would never be able to attract any good talent.

It's not arrogant. It's simply creating a process where you can filter out for folks who are truly excited to build what you're building and believe in the potential future impact. It might also turn out to be a big payday, or not.

Not everyone is simply chasing that 400k TC every year. If you lie about your excitement, a panel of folks who have went through the same process will easily sniff it out.

I thought people wanting that used things such as HAProxy and https accelerators to deal with the encryption part before passing it onto caching and/or server apps.
> Now their collapse costs a fortune to the UK taxpayers.

Does it? Grant shapes (secretary of state for transport) said most of the money to sort this mess has come from the ATOL fund rather than tax. And if that doesn’t cover it then the money from asset stripping TC will be used to pay back customers.

So I’d be interested to know you've got that from.
Objective-C was designed by adding objects to C. So the base syntax is C. Then the idea was that the object-oriented bits were inside [], and the named arguments or message syntax came from smalltalk and was designed to make the language easer to read. Named arguments are very verbose, but they make the code much more readable.

Then much later Apple added the . syntax, which while more familiar to a lot of modern developers kind of broke the cleanliness that the syntax used to have.

Or sidestep this problem entirely by being explicit:

contents = ReadFile('foo')
WriteFile('bar', contents)

Or more concisely:

WriteFile('bar', ReadFile('foo'))

(Of course, this would likely preclude the ability to do some means of copying that doesn't involve reading the whole file into memory).
I don't think these are typically used (or could be used) to convict someone, I think it's mostly used to guide investigations.
I interviewed with Andrew in Google for an internal team transfer as a Software Engineer. At the end of a very strange non-technical 30-minute interview where he sounded like an important and arrogant upper-management, I asked him what he was looking for and his reply was he wanted to hire someone that he liked and wanted to work with. That's seriously what it boils down to.

I cannot take this article seriously. And "a history of working on challenging projects with real deliverables" sounds ridiculous, when you know they hired people straight from bootcamps as engineers.

Can we please stop with ridiculous BS about evil shortsellers? Would you believe that it's martians spreading "fud" about Tesla, if Elon says so? And that would be at least as accurate as the shorts nonsense.
Have you ever considered that classifying people who disagree with you as a race of subhuman monsters is "amplifying the negativity you find in this world"?

If a bored fourteen year old really offers a rhetorical threat to your argument, get new arguments.
It's a black hole, that's not going to be throwing off black body radiation like that. It would be just hawking radiation plus whatever effects from matter in its accretion disk. That would still amount to pumping out 35.6 GW of hawking radiation, but being small isn't something that would inhibit it releasing energy, it's the other way around. So in other words, tiny black holes give off gobs of energy whereas larger ones do not.
Erm, no it doesn't. It has the ability to define units of measure, but the language doesn't have UoM built-in. There are UoM in FSharp.Core [1], so it's the same as including it from a library.

Obviously F#’s first class support for UoM is better than my implementation, but for all intents and purposes the behaviour is the same.

> Apparently identifying speed limit signs is AP1-only, because it relied on Mobileye's technology to do that and Tesla still haven't implemented their own replacement for that feature yet.

It's more of Tesla can't because because MobileEye owns the patent:

I also like papers with code, but linking an author’s github in a blind conference submission wouldn’t make a ton of sense.
nit, only mentioning it because I'm super curious about that list: searching for "4" and "rank" in the article doesn't show any relevant results to the ranking
This is so funny. At my work we actually had to implement more strict hiring standards because we would tend to hire people that were very impressionable but couldn't really perform on the job. Resume, interview etc was amazing but in terms of actual doing the job..nope, not at all. To say the least, we now use a comprehensive exam to pre-screen candidates before we interview them which pretty much solved the problem. The people we hire now have at least a baseline level of knowledge we can build from as we train them.

I guess the younger generation is getting better at faking it until you make it, I guess? lol
> Let's see, 2000. Most would be on dial-up, ADSL

Cable internet (@home, Cox, or local provider like I had) was much faster than either of those and was available in a lot of places. I think I had a symmetric 1Mb/s, but would experience slowdowns during peak hours (nowhere near dialup).
Also this chip is SPECIFICALLY for FSD. Though true that current autopilot is not designed for city streets the "FSD Chip" / Telstra Computer is quite literally designed for slow city driving. And Elon specifically called out the power usage in these low speed scenarios.

Also even on the highway you're not using a lot of power in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

They also apparently had a power supply limitation in the older cars for retrofit.
I leave quite a reasonable distance. The issue to me is it slows down before that with no cue, so I occasionally look down to find i'm somehow going 20km under the speed limit, a hundred meters behind whatever is in front of me.
> Autopilot is more then just "active lane centering and steering" (known as LKAS) Autopilot is a combination of a lot of things (TACC + Autosteer + Auto Lane Change + Auto Lane Keep + NOA etc...)

Yes, it is. The parent just made a dismissive, " Does it steer and lane center in general, besides when you drift out of lane?", implying that other cars don't.

Other cars also have other features beyond LKAS, too. That's just the focus of this article.

> For example, I am yet to see so other cars perform in conditions like this:

"Removed because there's no way to verify it was actually autopilot performing the maneuver. We are going to make a rule where future dashcam autopilot vids will be removed."

> Yeah mostly an extra option and costs $$$. Basic autopilot and a ton of safety features are FREE on Tesla.

And basic intelligent services and safety are free/standard on most new cars too. While advanced features might cost money, so too does advanced autopilot on a Tesla too, so let's not act like there's that much of a difference. What are some of these "basic safety features" that are free on a Tesla that "other manufacturers [pathetically] charge for"?
Google makes it even harder, as if you wish to delete a credit card, you have to login into a website version of the part of Google Play which manages them; yet, you still need to leave at least one cc number there. I deal with this by using a feature my credit provider offers, which allows users to generate and delete virtual valid CCs arbitrarily.
Exactly. For example, it was announced during E3 that the the game developers (StudioMDHR) from Cuphead helped port it. Also: https://twitter.com/StudioMDHR/status/1177305158470029314
"They don't think it be like it is, but it do.”
A few interviews with Chinese students in Australia caused a cognitive dissidence in me I still can't throw off.

The meat of the story was the students who came to Australia had been fed a steady diet of propaganda, just like you, but after having been in Australia for a few years with no limitations on what they could read or see, they still thought (or at least said they thought on TV) the propaganda they were fed better reflected reality than the "fake news" they saw in Australia.

They can't all be that dumb, surely?

I'm guessing the real reason is they expect to go back to China one day and are over here to further their careers in China. One of the reasons for this belief is when a Chinese minority stage a protest in the capital outside of an embassy, these overseas students turn up like clockwork and stage an anti-protest.

This organised paid-for like protest is fairly rare in Australia, so it's caught a lot critical attention. The only time I recall it happening is Labour Union protests stages by workers for the Union itself, however even in that case the people doing the protesting were true Union believers.
In my experience, none of them are a reasonable distance back. If it gave an audible chime first or something, it would be fine.
Seems like a reasonable response to the criticisms, but also, I dislike how Twitter just gradually gets closer to Facebook every year. I don’t like much social media in general, but I kind of liked the old, very limited Twitter. It had a zen-like property to it, in some sense.
The first time I saw this in the wild, the author had hidden a single tweet mentioning that they had received 50k retweets on a stolen video.
The UK has different bankruptcy laws than the US. Once you declare bankruptcy, that's it: all your accounts are frozen, all your employees go home, the company's assets belong to the courts.

It's similar to, but even worse than a chapter 7 bankruptcy. I don't why their system is the way it is, but that's how it works.
I'm a huge privacy advocate, but I don't think DNA should be private. DNA database tech is a game changer and I absolutely support it being used to solve crimes.

* DNA is immutable, comparable, heritable, and searchable in a tree. It's an ideal lookup key. Unlike fingerprints or face data you don't even need direct DNA evidence. A relative will do.

* It doesn't invade privacy to look this up in a database. No homes were entered into, no phone conversations were tapped. Private lives weren't snooped. No relatives were harmed.

* If you commit a violent crime, bad on you. If you leave DNA behind, you're stupid. The first deserves punishment; taken together doubly so.

* DNA evidence alone may not be enough to convict, but it can be the basis for an investigation.

* We already use video footage and artist sketches. Right now we rely on the "database" of collective human consciousness to find matches, which is unreliable and imperfect. When matches are found it's simply luck or chance -- cases shouldn't have to depend upon that when it's the same class of evidentiary data.

I'd be in favor of the government having all of our DNA on file so long as it isn't used for discriminatory purposes (health insurance, job, organ transplant denial, ...) or for advertising to us.

We're only scratching the surface of what's possible, though. Imagine when we extract higher dimensional features, such as gender, race, hair color, and ultimately facial structure from the DNA. Feed that into a photo database...

Your phenotype and genotype != your private life. Even if we aren't happy with what we got, these are the most concrete representations of our own selves. It's our code and (usually) unique addressing label, independent of any database. We should view it as such.

You're shedding DNA right now through exfoliation, waste elimination, and breathing. You can almost be guaranteed that corporate interests will start tapping into these sources in the next few decades. The law enforcement use case at least seems legitimate.

I just don't want them reading my email. :)
The code should be signed anyway.
Resampling DNA before conviction would fix the specific issue of the digital record being subject to tampering, I kind of assume this is done already.

The real nightmare is that we might be right around the corner from DNA being writable to the extent that you could make mock DNA to plant at a crime-scene/evidence-locker, and there might be a couple awkward decades where the courts believe the FBI when they claim to have found DNA matches (just like that time they systematically pretended they could identify hairs, and convicted people of murder based on hairs that were literally from dogs in some cases). We'll catch on eventually if they try it, but it would suck for those of us convicted on falsified evidence. I wouldn't be so paranoid about that possibility if they hadn't lied about the dog hairs for decades.

My daughter often wants to download iphone games.

A lot of these games will charge $4.99 per WEEK for access to keep playing without ads, etc.

A lot of pc games cost much much less than that.

And while I am talking about the cost of games https://itch.io/ is a fantastic place for free and cheap and pay what you want games.

They always catch me by surprise when they go flat. Also about twice this year my mouse has just not connected for some reason and I have to use the laptop trackpad to fix it. This would be a big issue on a desktop. And if I have to have a cable available to charge it I might as well just have a corded mouse.

The only time I find a wireless mouse to be better is for use with my laptop because its easier to bring to meeting rooms. At home I use wired since it seems all gaming mice have awful battery life. This logitech one I use at work has 70 days which works for me but every few months I have to run around and find a cable which isn't nice to use since usb cables tend to be a lot stiffer than mice cables

I'm referring to Arab Spring, Rohingya genocide, NZ shootings etc, all the recent western social media fueled events that have backfired spectacularly. The response has been to curtail speech like China has done 10 years ago when the problem was first identified.
Read between the lines carefully. I mentioned that it was a "big issue in Norway". Last I checked, "majority" is the entire market.
The problem with fishing expeditions on DNA databases is that when you run a 'one in a million false positive' test against a database of 300,000,000 people, you're going to get 300 false positives.

More than one of those suckers just might not have an alibi.
>assigned the brand a goodwill value of over £2.5 billion in 2018 which they wrote down to £1.4 billion after the first half of 2019. This was clearly a huge over-estimate as I doubt anyone will be paying much to purchase their brand now!

That's not what Goodwill is. Goodwill goes on the balance sheet when you acquire a company for more than book value.
>The US has several hundred murders per year.

I agree with what you're saying but the US usually has more than 15,000 murders per year not several hundred.
You'll find that 99% of parking lots are legally private property, and as such road rules DO NOT legally apply.

Those stop signs IN a parking lot? They legally mean nothing. Police can not give you a ticket for not stopping.
If manufacturers were to listen to this type of opinion, autonomous vehicles would never happen. You presume to know more about Tesla's capabilities than Tesla do. Their track record is one of proving critics wrong. Not always perfectly on time, by their own admission. If you look at everything they've done so far I think it's foolish to presume they won't be delivering on FSD.
Please don't ever recommend such code, even in jest.

This is Wrong, with a capital W.

The file copy API is fundamentally different to reading and and then writing the contents of a file.

The "copy" system call on most platforms also:

- Copies metadata such as attributes.

- Copies alternate data streams.

- Preserves advanced features such as sparse files, compression, encryption, BTRFS/ReFS/ZFS integrity settings.

- Can copy externally archived files without restoring them.

- Can copy files server-to-server without transferring the data to the client computer.

- Copies block-by-block instead of all at once, allowing files to be copied that do not fit into memory.

- Copies asynchronously so that reads and writes are overlapped

- Etc...
How Biden's son got on the board of directors of that company is fishy, at best: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/maxseddon/bidens-son-po...

He just happens to have received $1 billion in Chinese investment shortly after a diplomatic mission to China https://nypost.com/2018/03/15/inside-the-shady-private-equit... :

> A troubling pattern emerges from this research, showing how profitable deals were struck with foreign governments on the heels of crucial diplomatic missions carried out by their powerful fathers. Often those foreign entities gained favorable policy actions from the United States government just as the sons were securing favorable financial deals from those same entities.

Edit: How is "Rosemont Seneca and the Bank of China created a $1 billion investment fund called Bohai Harvest RST" not equivalent to "received $1 billion in Chinese investment"?
How about this. Irresponsible or not, you will never ever stop people from having kids. Ever! Even if you go to Hitler-esque extremes, it will NEVER happen. There's no argument you can ever put forward, no threat you can ever make that will keep people from procreating. If we don't procreate, what's the point of trying to save the earth in the first place? People get over yourselves and accept that we will rock this Earth until the wheels fall off and there is nothing you can do about it. No matter how loud you screetch.
> it only makes sense to invest time in someone who really is excited about switching.

Is this necessarily the case? The Clippers had to bend over backwards to get Kawaii Leonard on their team. They almost certainly would never have gotten an NBA Finals MVP if their philosophy was only go after people who were already excited.

The point is there some tradeoff in the design space. It's nice to have people who are excited to work for you, but chances are the superstars that will take your team to the next level, already have a dozen suitors. Kawaii Leonard isn't doing a six hour take home tests.

I'd suggest that maybe Firebase's experience here is not representative. It was one of the hottest startups in the Valley at the time. So maybe it could put up a lot of onerous requirements and still have talented engineers beating down the doors. If you're the Lakers, Lebron James comes to you. But for the 99% of hiring managers that are at the equivalent of the Clippers, maybe the same approach doesn't work.
I've been a Tesla owner since 2015 and I frequent pretty much all of the online forums and I will tell you that those are not the norms.

My cheapish drip coffee maker ($35) has both programmable start-brewing-at-time and turn-off-x-minutes-after-brewing functionality. Presumably you would need to physically be near the coffee machine to use it anyway. So I just don't understand why you would want this to be controlled via an automation app.

I'm one of the use cases that Sam mentions - B2C website. Replatforming our site with Gatsby, Netlify (hosting and more) and Contentful (headless CMS) has saved us hundreds of dollars a month in hosting - our site which receives 20,000 - 30,000 visitors a month now costs $0 to host. Additionally it is radically faster and more secure than it previously was. Being able to use React as needed has enabled us to manage some relatively complicated form handling/routing, get really creative around how we handle 'sites within the site' for a large sales team that we support, and easily create calculators and other tools for our customers.

And bonus - I'm a graphic designer by trade. For one reason or another a web team of 7+ people left my company over the course of 6months and I stepped in to fill the void. Just me, one person who had prior experience building the odd site (maybe one a year) with HTML, CSS. I literally learned javascript and React through Gatsby (I'd say I'm junior developer level at this point - which is actually a good fit for my company).

Gatsby is a great product (for many use cases), run by a generous team, surrounded by an equally generous community. I owe my career to Gatsby. My company is saving hundreds of thousands of dollars a year thanks to Gatsby. Stoked to see Gatsby's continued growth and success.
