I think this is inevitable and not a bad thing but I wish we were able to talk about this better as a society.

What you are describing is a "transition" to post-scarcity, as everything becomes automated and jobs are eliminated.

And for marketing, you don't call them robots. Call them appliances. Automated Appliances maybe. Robots go berserk and Skynet over the world; appliances just cook your food :)
you mean the result set or the query it-self? databases like oracle, mysql, postgres can already identify existing queries and hash it to re-use execution plan etc... some can even convert literals in queries into bind.. generally seeking use bind variables in your queries for re-use...

"Cultural context" but also should include depth of knowledge context (domain expertise, language depth-understanding) - as not everyone's critical thinking is as developed as say "first responder" moderators, and why I believe in many, if not all cases, there should be a cascading process to get verification of actions from a "higher up" - along with an appeal process.

Subreddits allow this to some degree, as you can create two "science" communities with different names, and have different rules held for each. It also somewhat protects against "moderator capture" - though a better job could be done allowing for more fluidity and mobility here; community moderation, trust building, isn't often the leading metric of the founders of large platforms - with Reddit creating fake users to post content to make it look like the site is busy, as one example, and I imagine they did the same once they implemented the ability to "give gold" - giving gold automatically to comments to make others adopt it faster thinking it was a new cultural norm.

A problem I've personally experienced however is moderators of subreddits ultimately have each unchecked dictatorship-censorship powers - and it's clearly a common problem of moderators being on their high horse with no potential of repercussions because Reddit as a platform doesn't moderate the moderators, at least not adequately.

Moderation should really be called parenting, parenting which is the process of role modelling and explaining - to help people or children grow by deepening their understanding by guiding them to appropriate resources to help them understand different concepts, when necessary.
The big thing about Manhattan isn’t that its built in a grid, but that the shopping/offices/living are all mixed together. People are coming and going all day long. A lot of suburbs are like deserts.
I don't think that's the right reading. At least, that's not how I read it.

> Alison Taylor, a frequent recipient of parking tickets, sued the City and its parking enforcement officer Tabitha Hoskins, alleging that chalking violated her Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable search. The City moved to dismiss the action. The district court granted the City’s motion, finding that, while chalking may have constituted a search under the Fourth Amendment, the search was reasonable. Because we chalk this practice up to a regulatory exercise, rather than a community-caretaking function, we REVERSE

The sixth circuit has reversed the district court's dismissal that the search was reasonable. Both the sixth circuit and the lower court agree that marking the tire is a search; the lower court dismissed and held that the search was reasonable.

The amended decision says that once the case advances the city can argue that their actions fall under 4th amendment exceptions, but that their current motion did not sufficiently make that argument.

The chalking may be found OK during further proceedings, depending on how the city argued, but at the time that decision was issued it was not.
All speculation, but isn't this how traffic management should always be done?

Shouldn't traffic be modeled and leave stats to just simply determine what roads should be cars only, trucks, buses, etc?
Alright. In France or in Germany, if you walked up to a police officer and started saying in a bright clear voice "The Holocaust didn't happen" (in French or German of course), what do you think would be the more likely response:

1) "You're under arrest"

2) "Fuck off, nerd"
Commercial enterprise VPN products are an open sewer, and there aren't any, from any vendor, that I trust. I don't like OpenVPN or strongSwan, but you'd be better off with either of them than you would be with a commercial VPN appliance. The gold standard, as ever, is Wireguard.
I've often said on HN that people are a great deal more rational than we give them credit for. We stink at explaining our rational decisions, but they are often quite rational.

In this case, brutally rational... at least in a very short term sense! I of course agree with everyone here that at the conscious level, I would love to prioritize bikes, motocycles, and pedestrians. But I don't drive at the entirely conscious level, and neither does anyone else. A lot of driving occurs at much lower levels.

This is not all bad; if we were all driving at fully conscious levels, we'd all be driving like student drivers all the time. That's what "fully conscious driving" looks like. It is not a desirable thing. It would be much worse than what we have now. Nevertheless, the fact that the rest of our brain is involved means that we must also consider the negative side effects of using our lower systems, and one of those side effects is that it is going to be, by default, intrinsically focused on avoiding immediate negative effects like pain, and much, much less focused on long-term considerations like "what we did to a stranger" or "how long we'll be in court". These systems just don't have a long time preference. Heck, what we are pleased to call our "conscious" minds aren't always all that great at balancing long term considerations.

You can blame these systems all you want, but that's not going to change anything about them.

My personal cognitive hack is to try to see them as walking lawsuits, and feeding the lower parts of my brain lurid, emotion-laden images of what will happen to me and my family if I do hit one of those things out of negligence. My conscious mind really is rather worried about one moment's negligence wrecking everything. It's... better than nothing. But I'm still not really speaking the subconscious' language. It may be "subconscious" but that doesn't mean it's "stupid"... it knows I'm lying if I try to claim that I'm going to be physically hurt if I hit them.
Ok, but what does this have to do with urban planning. The EU is a huge sprawling mass of literally every country in earth across dozens of biomes, and yet that didn’t stop Zurich from making these choices
> barriers to entry drop

Are more providers entering into the cloud space? I thought AWS and Azure had this on lock down, with Google a third fiddle.

Are new companies able to enter this space now? I assume the capital investment required for allocating and maintaining tons of data centers at edge nodes that are globally distributed would be too steep.
I mean all citizen, not some special citizens or a few citizens. Of course if the power is in the hands of the few it doesn't matter at all which label you put on them.
The most compelling reason I've heard, yet one I rarely use due to its complexity is about unrecoverable government capture. It goes like this:

In the past, governments could be overthrown by internal revolutionaries or external forces.

In the near future, governments will be able to surveil and anticipate their citizenry so as to make revolution impossible. They will do this because governments (political parties) have a self-preservation instinct. And with nuclear weapons in play, external overthrow is increasingly suicidal (excepting small countries).

Furthermore, that internal surveillance department can be turned on the government staff itself, leaving a small group of (unelected) officials with power over the rest of the government. Eventually one of them will gain the upper hand.

That means there could come a point of stasis, where governments become unassailably entrenched that humankind is stuck in a local maximum with whatever governments existed then.

Let's hope our current dictator for life is beneficent.
Have you considered that maybe you shouldn't be buying DRM content in the first place? If you are going to spend money buy a physical book and consider passing it on after you have read it if you don't want to reread or refer to later.
Projections are not concrete numbers. It's normal for projections to not be exactly what reality turns out to be.
Lab-made primordial soup yields RNA bases
Why is it only the minority that needs to recognize they might be wrong? Sometimes the majority is wrong.
It is, though it requires significant capital.

And it was widely thought to not be high margin at the time. Cloud prices have not fallen as fast as hardware.

FWIW, many people still think it will become low margin.
Compute being a commodity doesn't matter when storage has significant lock in, with cheaper prices for using the localized storage service of a particular cloud provider.

Even if moving a containerized application across cloud services was as simple as clicking a few buttons, if you're doing any sort of logging, and especially later any computation over those logs, you will be locked in one way or another.
Not really. If it's fine for the US to do this, why should Iran doing it be a big problem?
That's not the argument they made.

I do not know that there is no one out there in the world who has a key to my house. Even if there was and someone found that key on a city street they would likely not be able to figure out which house it opened.

I know there is no legally mandated key to everyone's house that would allow anyone to enter whomever's house they please.
We have made truly incredible process in cancer treatment. From 1990 to 2010 the number of cases breast cancer stayed about the same, but the number of deaths dropped by about 1/3. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S221353831...

It’s hard to say what current rates are as treatment lasts so long. However, approximately 99% of people with localized breast cancer, which is ~62% of diagnoses, survive 5 years. 85% with regional cancer, spread to nearby lymph nodes or other tissue, survive 5 years. Even metastatic breast cancer has which is 6% of diagnoses has a 27% chance of surviving 5 years.

Now various other types have had more or less success, but amazing work has been done.
I feel like the drivers did it to themselves. New York tried dedicated bus lanes and the drivers continued to use the dedicated bus lane any time police presence wasn’t obvious.
I would chalk it down to teenage rebellion. My parents were doctors and I wanted to get as far away from being one, became an engineer ( but if you ask me today, I would have gone down the medicine route..).
Honestly, they sort of do. I would definitely call any 60% with custom QMK firmware with function keys and layers a non-standard layout. For the alpha keys, the benefits to switching from QWERTY to say DVORAK or something are largely still theoretical. No one to my knowledge has proven definitively that it's actually superior. And it's a common myth that QWERTY was designed to slow typists down. It was designed to place the frequently used keys further apart from each other, which is not the same thing as trying to slow down typists. If that were the objective, you'd find yourself doing awkward pinkie reaches for 'T' and 'E' and the like.

But even if DVORAK was superior, mastering it comes at significant costs. Chiefly, switching to a custom layout with function keys and stuff doesn't reprogram most basic typing, so you can jump on someone else's conventional keyboard pretty easily. If you reprogram yourself to be a DVORAK master, you are looking at some serious potential hindrance in flexibility since we live in a qwerty world.
And I'm arguing that by that reasoning we have much, much bigger fish to fry than the poor.
I can't wait for exoskeletons in entertainment and recreation. Imagine sumo, rugby, boxing, etc with actual superhumans powered by exoskeletons. Traffic jams on Mt Everest are going to be weird. Construction is going to be a lot more productive.

I'm confident it will be the "next big thing" at some point, maybe 10-30 years.
Hm, given it's Malassezia, is there a connection to seborrheic dermatitis (the same underlying organism)? Is there a correlation between patients with pancreatic cancer and seborrheic dermatitis? I lost auntie a month ago due to pancreatic cancer, it took less than a year from diagnosis to death.
>traditional media who tend to vet what they air/publish

I think we see more than ever that this isn't the case. The reality is that traditional media simply doesn't share alt-right views and doesn't want to give them a free platform.
Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah that link is maybe late 90s, but early 2000s is probably closer.

I hadn't clicked through to that year to see.
I'm not talking about this specific case.
As to what you bring up, how platforms determine what real accounts are is a black box, we don't know how biased their machine learning algorithms and human reviewers are.
I remembered this as well. This bothers me, as I just had to get a new set and they are ridiculously expensive. I originally opened the article hoping that this was some kind of "I 3d printed my own frames" or something to that effect. I am hoping someone will figure out how to disrupt this industry.
That is the simplistic definition, not even the full OED or Webster's entry, rather than the accepted one in economics and by the international community.

WTO definition of subsidies includes "government revenue that is otherwise due, foregone or not collected (e.g. fiscal incentives such as tax credits)". Pdf: http://www.wto.org/english/docs_e/legal_e/24-scm.pdf

The EU considered the UK's reduction in fuel tax as a subsidy.
Regarding AirBNB -- you may be right, but I'm not so certain. It appears to me that the amount of impact it has depends a great deal on where you are. In my area, AirBNB isn't a significant factor at all -- but in a city a couple hundred miles away from here, it's had a significant impact. Facebook's impact is obvious to pretty much everyone, everywhere. AirBNB? Not so much. Which is not to say it's had no impact...

> I think this bar to world changing is way too high, little changes can make big impacts over long periods. Especially on cultural values.

I agree entirely with this.
> compute time becomes a commodity

The cloud is enormously expensive if people are buying it for "compute time".

But that's the miscalculation: thinking people buy cloud for "compute time". By and large they do not. They buy cloud for flexible provision, robust management, easier deployment, and better monitoring.

And those are differentiated qualities.

This is interesting. I wonder if I am more or less secure using an Algo VPN on AWS than a branded VPN company.

(I'm assuming they don't sit on all AWS servers/have broad access hence going after less mature businesses...)
Using “Truth Analytics” to Combat Deepfakes
The iPhone 11 and 11 Pro both have a base storage of 64gb. If you are going to claim that a phone is overpriced at least get the specs you're complaining about right.
I think of it as something like an arms race. Sure, I’d love to have a tiny one seater “car” that is just enough to get me from A to B. But I can only drive that with enough sense of safety for my preferences in a world where I’m reasonably assured to never be hit by a substantially larger vehicle. I’ve been rear ended by a distracted dual axel truck (probably like 3t or something) in the past. I only got bad whiplash, luckily, but just that is enough of an eye opener for a lifetime.
Margins are high because it's expensive. Cloud is in a big growth curve because it operationalizes capital spend and time to market (key for startups) and they have amazing software stacks which let you dump legacy people and costs.

But once you are there and make the cloud/devops process part of your DNA, you may find that it isn't the optimal place to live from a cost perspective. I moved a workload from a big cloud provider to a private datacenter recently and reduced the costs on an annual basis by like 60%. We did need to make a big capital investment.
I can't separate civilian & military. Nor past, present, future. Nor the fissile material and all the byproducts. Nor the gathering (mining) and the disposal (reburying) of same.

I'm strongly in favor of traveling wave reactors. We need more tools for reducing, mitigating our stockpiles.

When the Hanford Nuclear Reservation's contaminants in the water table reach the Columbia River, everything downstream dies.

For me, any discussion about new civilian nuclear is fullstop until all the other aspects are addressed. Meanwhile, we prop up the nuclear power we have during the transition to wind, solar.
The same thing was done in the US in the 50s with the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in North America (possibly older than this one it seems):

The falls still exist and could be restored if the dam was removed.
Please file bugs in http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues?q=%23RSCPP for the issue you encounter.
A few months ago I was in my car, preparing to pull away from the curb. I saw 3 bicyclists, 2 closer and 1 further away in my rear/side-view mirrors coming down the street, so I waited. I was shocked to find myself pulling out after the first two had passed. It was like I'd forgotten the 3rd guy completely.

Luckily I caught myself in time and nothing bad happened, but it scared the crap out of me to realize my brain was being an asshole again.
The "I have nothing to hide" argument is silly, but:

> Just try asking them their own passwords and hear the very predictable reply.

Is equally silly. Having nothing to hide is very different from having nothing to steal.
> But an ugly UI that streamlines common patterns and has sane and unsurprising defaults has good UX.

Yes. But that's not what I'm talking about (I'm a 9 to 5 designer so to keep my job I believe I need to have a strong enough foundation to not confuse UI and UX).

A product can be ugly but still functional. For example, HackerNews is kind of ugly but it has a decent UX. GCP sometimes has decent UIs with horrible UX or horrible UX with horrible UIs.

Of course, I'm speaking about web consoles. If we are going to talk about the whole developer experience (including the CLI, documentation, APIs, etc), I think it gets more complex than that.
But as a user of both GCP and AWS, I think Google DX (developer experience) it's not great. Perhaps better in certain areas when compared to AWS, but not something that would deserve any praise.
Works fine in Firefox, but Chrome they don't work at all.
> You should put in a bid where you're exactly neutral between buying-vs-not-buying. Otherwise, you're leaving money on the table. This is asking people to make purchasing decisions whose outcomes will leave them explicitly not happy - a state of mind that every person hates putting themselves in.

It seems that this is a problem the Vickrey auction solves. By charging the price offered by the 11th highest bidder, they are ensuring that everyone pays less than or equal to their bid, and most likely less than.

This works out perfectly if everyone actually bids their neutral point: the winners are all either neutral or happy (most likely happy), the 11th is neutral, and the losers are all neutral or happy (most likely happy).

In practice, people bid at a price that they'd be happy to get it, so actually the 11th will feel slightly miffed that they weren't able to purchase at that price. And of course all the losers will be annoyed that it cost so much. But the former problem can't really be helped, and the latter is baked into basic supply-demand.

I think this is so strong in the mechanical keyboard community because there's not a lot of "there" there

I think cast iron frying pans are an even more emblematic example of what you're describing. It's a four thousand year old product with no moving parts that's long been mastered, but over the past 15 years they've transitioned into a hobby item with ever-more-expensive niche vendors (Finex, Butter Pat, etc.) selling increasingly souped up versions that fry an egg almost indistinguishably from a basic, well-seasoned model.

Meanwhile there's another subset of hobbyists chasing esoteric vintage cast iron frying pans, often claiming the modern ones can never be as good.
Its more comparable than you think. Those artisan cables with fancy bnc connectors and pretty colors are also available for keyboards. Some are like $40-50 but some are into the hundreds. They are sold for aesthetic reasons. I myself have some decent quality, but still pretty average cables because I think my white plastic cables look good with my white plastic $600 keyboard. My cables were probably $10-12 from amazon.
Fellow motorcyclist here.

visibility. in my case I will ride with the high beams on during the day, if I am directly behind another car in stop and go I will turn them off. I also run small projector/fog lamps down low to form a light triangle which I believe further increases my being noticed. Yet as you imply, I don't trust that I am ever seen.

it isn't just short term memory but people just aren't paying attention to the drive. even in my car I see people on their phone or worse reading their phones display, all in a state that is hands free! the numbers are frightening if you think about it.

it was mentioned in another thread about speed and cars and that the manufacturers have had the ability for many years to keep our cars at legal speeds but none choose to do so and I doubt the public would permit it unless mandated by law. Well the same can be said about smart phones, passenger or not it may well be necessary for them to determine if they are in a vehicle and just not allow the display to be used.

Notice me, hell they have to put their phone down first. People miss light changes and on coming traffic far too often all because of their phones
No. I definitely wouldn't like to read a post with an attitude like the one espoused in the titled you proposed.

However, I would gladly read a post that reviews Calibre codebase in a helpful, friendly way.
Well, owners will demand it because no-one will want their car to drive off and disappear and they don't know where it is. The question really is then how long before police forces lobby for access... Though indeed this may end up conditional on getting a warrant depending on the jurisdiction.
I would argue its always better if people form their own opinions, so I just suggested that people should look it up themselves and come to their own conclusions.
This is a bit unclear. If every family had a dacha, and a family consist on average of 3-4 persons, then 25-33% of the total population had a dacha, consistent with the last part of the sentence.
At least in the context of toenail fungus, the topical treatments avoid risk to your liver (but generally don't work because it's hard to penetrate the nail and nail bed). However, even assuming a carcinogenic role for fungus, topical treatments are very unlikely to be useful for preventing internal cancers like pancreatic cancer.
It must be awesome. I live in the 'ritzy' part of a capital city. I have 150/5 from Comcast, or 40Mb dsl not sure the upload) from Centurytel. I am really hopeful for 5g, or even Starlink. I really want more upload bandwidth.
