Humans may be ultimately responsible, but I think it's pretty clear that the more that decisions are made algorithmically, the less accountability firms running those algorithms take.

If there aren't people involved at every step of the way to inject humanity into decision making processes, it's much easier for companies to hide behind their "algorithms."
Maybe if we don't need dams anymore...

Disney+ will be that one service for a lot of people. And the places they are pulling from will still have a lot to watch, e.g., people who like Netflix shows could still only subscribe to Netflix. I’m not saying that people will only subscribe to one service, just that they could get away with one $5-15/mo payment and have more good stuff to watch than they have time for, on demand. That’s really different than cable.

Ad tiers of streaming services are really cheap (approaching zero over time), so if we are looking at those, then the cost of a bunch of them is less than cable equivalent and don’t need to be better (even though they are.)
How to Stress the C# Compiler
Strong encryption may be unbreakable in a mathematical sense but encrypted communications are not unbreakable in practice. Key extraction through side channels or compromise of communications by physical surveillance or evil maid attacks is practical. It just can't be done to a billion people at the same time. Read here https://github.com/maqp/tfc/wiki/Threat-model for an overview of all the ways an all-out, unusually secure encryption system (encryption and decryption done on separate computers with data diodes, 100% reproducible build) can be broken.

That doesn't work in enterprise projects with heavy dosis of consulting.
Governments have a long history of doing bad things (e.g. hundreds of millions killed in the last 100 years by USSR/China/Germany but many lesser offenses such as the war on drugs in the US). You often don't get to roll back government powers as a government becomes more corrupt or authoritarian; so once you're in, you're in. Thus; even if giving people privacy allows some crime, it is probably not as bad as all the good that comes from not enabling an authoritarian regime by giving up all your privacy.
Netflix shows commercials right now; they’re just commercials for other Netflix shows. I doubt they’ll start selling the post-roll space to third parties, though, as it’s evidently more profitable for them to use that space to keep you subscribing to the service than to make a few cents for an ad placement.

As for cable-style interstitial commercials, though, the only way I could see Netflix ever doing that is if the company were to enter a Blockbuster-level tailspin. It would be selling off the core Netflix experience just to stay afloat.

I haven't tried to use the whole setup (with all headers etc) but if I put in my .c file the definition of struct and the ANSI C version of the definition of define_label,

then C88 compiles without errors. On the page about the compiler the author of the page writes that he had to fix the standard libraries, but the compiler (C88) is definitely made to work with ANSI C "draft" which matches my experiment.

And remember, you have little to no recourse for these hidden fees. Due to mandatory binding arbitration, you are forbidden from courts of law to dispute their fees.
You cannot and will not have your "day in court". The companies put a small line item in your contract. You were not required to have a common understanding or meeting of the minds to have been banned from disputing these fees in a court of law.

Instead you must hope your local attorney general defends the public interest.

I come to terms with this by realizing that the alternative is true horror. Can you imagine eternal stagnancy as a disembodied human soul? Never experiencing anything new, endless bliss or pain would be indistinguishable or result in withdrawal and self-annihilation. At least if my body dies, it will still change over time and become something else.

I think of a soul as the wave of my life passing through time. It will continue after I die, the ideas and things I create will propagate through time like the wind of a butterfly's wings touching the souls and lives of those around me. It could create a hurricane, or dissipate into meaningless tiny changes. Eventually though chaos mixes the souls of everyone into entropy.
There's no such thing as a perfect analogy because the entire point of an analogy is it takes an argument and reframes it in a different context. Different contexts have different edge cases and thus no analogy fits an argument perfectly.

Given this door analogy works for the majority of the arguments being presented (which is impressive in itself given how different the physical and electronic worlds are), I'd say it's actually a pretty good analogy.
While it seems to be a red rag to a bull for large swathes of the electorate in many countries, this is one of the things having a reasonable system of inheritance tax could presumably help reduce. The extent to which people can creatively hide/structure wealth to pass on to their children, creating a "landed gentry" class of sorts, seems to get worse with time. I certainly have observed anecdotally a large gap between those who inherited and were able to invest in property, and those who didn't and could not.

It was interesting to observe the Conservative party in the UK revisit this issue (again) at their party conference, it's amazing how much it riles large sections of the UK electorate when only less than 5 percent of families in the UK ever actually meet the threshold where it has to be paid...

Well, why wouldn't it? Cable TV's various irritations occurred because of the economics of their business; at the end of the day, they want to get paid too.

Now that streaming has gone from experimental status to mainstream adoption status, it now has the same pressures to deliver profits above all else. What is the customer going to do, go back to cable TV?
I can't think of a situation where I would ever want the base price and fees to be disclosed seperately. The advertised price should include everything but sales taxes that vary by region. If I ever care to know why the advertised price is different in state A vs state B, then I would simply look up breakdown of the total price.

> The total amounts to nearly $450 per year in unexpected fees just on TV service alone.

As someone who hasn't every signed up for anything but flat rate internet service (still from Comcast); the only 'fee' I had was a $15 BS charge for a 'self-installation kit' but it was still discolsed before signing up for service. Are the fee amounts unknown until the first bill? Or are they just baried in the 100 page contract?

That's the same the kind of self-defeating thinking that leads to artificially low prices in the first place.

1- people like to look at renewables as complimentary to one another. Sometimes it's true, but it's not usually efficient (yet), because you have to significantly over build support infrastructure for a given supply of power. And it's the opposite- you would want hydro to supplement solar or wind (as it's got some on-demand flexiblity) and you could use it to saturate distribution lines when sun/wind is lacking. It takes scaling waaay up to make smart grid load-balancing efficient. Batteries will eventually help this, but they have their own problems that people like to ignore.

If you build renewable power generation, but still have to build a backup power plant, the renewables lose a big chunk of efficiency by the very nature of that plants existence (in the form of wasted embedded energy/cost). You could choose to also operate the backup regularly, but then you need to over-build transmission capacity, and you're admitting defeat in needing to operate non-renewables to justify the renewables. As usual, it's complicated. But it doesn't make sense to rely on solar to supplement hydro during a drought.

2-You're talking about hydraulic storage, which is really inefficient, but has some valid use-cases. But drought isn't one of them, for quite a few reasons. If there's a water shortage you want (and are probably treaty bound) to allow that water to flow downstream.

By definition, dams were favored in places with irregular rainfall patterns, because in most cases, flood control was the primary use.

If applicable, navigation is typically a primary or secondary use. If the area is also dry, irrigation supply is secondary / tertiary use.

Power generation is usually last; a happy by-product except in a few cases- with the Manhatten project being the prime example. Sometimes flexiblity allows for on-demand operation, but only after the other use conditions are satisfied (usually during fall draw-down). But even TVA dams operate based primarily on flood control parameters.
Anyone imagining they were gonna get all their favorite shows for less money was likely delusional. Especially if that includes sports.

Google employee, totally speaking for myself.

You have a couple things mixed in here, some of which ring true to me and others very false. The true ones are the stuff about the interview process. I think a day of whiteboard programming is a poor way to assess experienced candidates. It does make you feel like a cog. (I also don't really know how to design an alternative process that doesn't increase the level of bias.) But most of your stuff about what it's like after you accept an offer rings very false. I haven't worked anyplace with better work life balance (and relatedly, really good family leave benefits) or more opportunities for challenging work and career growth. I don't find it hyper competitive (but I'm never sure how much this is a function of where I'm located or what I work on). You're right about transparency though. Having a full view of what's going on at my company is something I miss from previous jobs.

>It is not driving, it's road traffic injuries, which includes biking.

It's not from being hit by cyclists.

Quite a lot of it isn't, read articles 6 and 7 and the lists of implementation dates.

>Why are cyclist so afraid of protecting themselves?

After having people maliciously aim their car at you for being in front of them, it's quite patronising to have them assume you're riding unsafely. People in other countries manage much better safety records through infrastructure and education. On the contrary, I don't think there's any safety clothing I can wear that will save me if a car crashes into me. This thread assumes that exists, yet assumes the same doesn't exist for anyone who dies in a car crash. Why don't you wear a helmet when in a car?

Infrastructure doesn't improve where I am because the nasty, tribalist rhetoric swipes any safety issues under the rug by assuming cyclist fault. You've accused cyclists of being afraid of protecting themselves, thus categorising them in a tribe separate from your own. But I'm not separate from you: I'm a driver, too. Yet when I'm in a car with someone and they see a driver do something foolish, I never hear them call 'drivers' idiots, it's always about the singular person. The tribalism makes you think of the other party as less important.

(And the foolish things happen multiple times a day - I can guarantee I'll see someone speed when I drive home tonight)

Accusing me of being afraid of protecting just gives me the impression that you feel I have to earn the right for you to tolerate me in the road. An impression I get every time someone punish-passes me, or manoeuvres assuming a cyclist won't be in their path. And it's so tiring to be told it's my fault when I know how often I see people fail to obey the laws of the road at my expense.

Depending on what you do with the camera, it's actually worth it though - at least for the initial amateur->pro jump.

Better/faster autofocus (usually), fully weather-sealed body (!), larger sensor (depending on what you need), dual-native ISO, etc etc

Plus other features that are technically still convenience, but can matter a great deal to a pro.

- Example1: Panasonic G85 has a couple reconfigurable buttons, but on the GH5 nearly every physical button can be configured to whatever setting you want.

- Example2: Dual memory-card slots for instant backups (some prosumer cameras only have 1 slot)

My research indicates that smart criminals tend to communicate in code. Because of the codes used and the frequency at which they change, the existence of communication is often of more probative value than the words used. Companies currently share this meta data with law enforcement.

If the veil of E2EE is lifted, smart criminals will move their communications elsewhere. They will find services owned by foreign companies in regimes that are not friendly to US law enforcement. Or they will move to low tech solutions that make collecting meta data more difficult.

Basically, I’m afraid that changing E2EE will catch criminals who make a myriad of mistakes that will get them caught anyways. Meanwhile, it will drive the intelligent criminals further underground, onto services owned and hosted in hostile (or less friendly) countries.

This is about routes, not lines or spacing.

If you have three cities on a perfectly straight line, you can run your high-speed trains as above.

If the city in the middle is not on a straight line path between the two end cities, now your train tracks need to curve to connect the three. If you make the curve a large enough, smooth enough curve, it won't hurt your maximum speed much, but when you're talking "1000 km/hr" ... and in any case, you're also adding miles to your route, and if you make your route 20% longer to weave from city to city along the way, you are also make it 20% slower.

My idea for partially circumventing this is to carry a motorcycle helmet in my hands and to only put it on if the situation escalates. For other body parts, I would use protective motorcycle clothing. A gas mask is small enough for carrying in a backpack and if you find yourself in a situation where you need to put it on, I think worrying about the legalities of wearing a gas mask will be of a pretty low priority.
For shaders you're probably faster off if you use the expression

rgb = saturate(vec3(abs(hue-180)/60 - 1, 2 - abs(hue-120)/60, 2 - abs(hue-240)/60))

Since it avoids the if/then. Although I'm not too sure if it will work well in GLSL as HLSL has better support for the saturate function (it can usually be merged with some other operator).
