There's no safe texting and driving. You're lucky you didn't murder anyone.

This is how you sound to me:

> When I drive drunk, I drive real slow. But I started getting pulled over, so I started driving drunk and at normal speeds. It's so dangerous to do that. Why can't I drive drunk really slow, it is the safest way to drive drunk after all! Most people don't have the self control I do.

If you find that unconvincing, don't expect others to find your anecdote convincing.
That analogy doesn't hold well though, because calculators were (at least eventually) better at everything a slide rule could do. This article is predicated on the idea that this doesn't hold for CLI->GUI. You may disagree, but it's not obviously false.
I have a Pentium NUC which works fine for this and no noise and still x86.
What has this got to do with Plan 9?
Unfortunately the added honking causes huge quality of life issues, especially in urban areas and at night.

Self-driving can't come soon enough.
The fundamental problem with incentives is that they're asymmetric in nature: The incentivee has a lot more time (and direct motivation) to come up with a way to game the incentive than the incentivizer can spend when setting it.

The only real way to address that is to revise incentives on a frequent and regular basis — but who wants to do that? Certainly not legislatures.
True for me as well, similar setup (amdgpu, not nouveau, except at work).

The only time FF 'crashes' is when I update while it's running, and even then it gracefully degrades and lets me know I have to restart it. With the 'restore previous session' menu option (an option that only exists in piecemeal and implemented much worse in Chrome), this is a mild inconvenience.

Chromium crashes much more frequently for me on Linux.
Ford doesn't own the overwhelmingly pervasive marketplace in which all cars, including theirs, are sold.
Two: "Eng" and "lish".
People need to actually use the hands-free option, though. Most of my older relatives have newer cars, but none of them are tech-savvy or motivated enough to set up the hands-free mode or learn how to use it.
In fact engine breaking is illegal in most populated areas
I agree it's very annoying you can't change keyboard shortcuts in Firefox.

If you use the Mac trackpad, use BetterTouchTool to assign a gesture (I use tiptap left and tiptap right) to the switch tabs left and switch tabs right keyboard shortcuts. You can assign them per-app so it can send a different combo for Firefox than anything else.
You have a point. At the time they decide to use a device/phone, their faculties are not diminished and yet they decide to do it anyway.

Maybe we need one of those corny ‘80s throwback PSAs to shame people into conscientious behavior.
I am not into the topic(at least I thought I was not), but great quality forecast app and open data really looks attractive and worth exploring.
And in the process introduced a whole new layer of cruft and the number of bugs I hear from the web teams trying to implement content with AMP is... it's constant.
Which is neither here, nor there.

It's more like saying "I love my dependence on images, else I would still be stuck using text". Well, text can be more information-dense and efficient than an image or a movie. And similarly, a CLI can be more efficient than a GUI. Depends on the application.

And if the "MS DOS" reference is about release time, well, there are CLI tools that were built far more recently, and are much more modern than many GUI tools people use.
> If you've been detained or are in any way at risk of it, call a laywer.

I didn't say don't.
I'm pretty sure it is. At least in Wisconsin. My uncle has double digit DUIs and has never served time in jail.
This technology has been available to anyone via Akamai, CloudFront and other edge caching networks for years. It shouldn't require Google threatening AMP to get content publishers to adopt it.
That's a good point. A lot of what you're saying is inevitable for most adolescents due to contemporaneous hormonal and neurological changes they're enduring.

To combat that, we could induce accelerated experience using VR simulation.
On the positive side, I do think that if we repeat this truth enough times we can decrease the "cover my ass" value of consulting and help more orgs make change autonomously.
If you write a pure function, an interface is meaningless.
They didn't "turn it off" as much as set it very very low, maybe even to 0. But even then, military grade receivers still enjoyed 1-2 magnitudes of improved accuracy.

Clinton turned it off after surveyors figured out differential GPS, which essentially made it obsolete.
I think it's psychological. With capital expenses, the decision to spend a lot of money tends to be a discrete event/process, while operations usually grow slowly over time. We place inherent value in big purchases—after all, I decided to make the purchase, so it must be valuable.
why do you keep typing 'abt' instead of 'about'? what are you planning to do with all the time saved?
I agree, but I was just pointing out that I think PurpleAir is a better source for this because aqi.today is (unintentionally) misleading without the context offered by PurpleAir.

I know that the air pollution is very bad around my area as there was a comprehensive one-off detailed study done of every area of the city in 2017 which showed it to be, and the causes of it have not since changed. The lack of realtime sensors in my area though would mislead aqi.today users to think that everything's rosy here. At least with PurpleAir one get an immediate idea of a lack of data in one's area.

This isn't intended as an outright criticism: I guess aqi.today could be made more informative by adding either some quick context, or a disclaimer, into the UI.
The second suggestion (requiring virtual reality in the class) will expose all drivers to the experience.
Pipe dream. Even if a driverless car was to exist.. it has to contend with millions of other vehicles all being driven by human beings.

George Hotz has a killer talk about why the general approach to autonomous vehicles is flawed. I highly recommend it.

Are 3rd party sellers entitled to fairness? They choose to use Amazon as a platform, they could use ebay, etsy, woocommerce, shopify, bigcommerce? There is also not much but complexity and time stopping them from using a bunch of those services. Theres also things like ecomdash.com that let you treat all the platforms as just another sales channel of your business.

Im not sure how much I feel for the "I sold my soul to the devil for a quick buck and he turned on me, woe is me" crowd. If you dont like the deal, and you dont want to list your product at one of the biggest stores in the world, nobody is forcing you to.

There may absolutely be some anti-competitive behavior happening. Im not sure how I feel about amazon watching trends and then cloning products. Being paid by their competitors to be fed market research. But its not a unique business model to Amazon, Wal-mart has been doing it forever. If this behavior type needs correcting, correct the rules, not haphazard sanctions after the fact.

It doesn't get mentioned a lot, but there are significant differences in pedestrian behavior and its affect on their likelihood of encountering this issue.
They don't, because if they did, they would vote for candidates which want to do that, but they don't.
If you were only putting your life in danger rather than other people’s, using the phone while driving could actually be rational. Consider how much your life expectancy reduces by using the phone while driving vs how much time you waste due to commuting and not using the phone during that time.

That's a great elevator pitch for Gartner.
Not in my experience. They're playing with the music, on their phone, reading, hanging their feet out the window, etc. In fact if you're one of those backseat drivers "reminding me to look at the road" (as if I'm not paying attention) you can find your own transportation.
Weird, my first thought when reading it was a character from Morrowind...

I don't believe that scenario holds water.

All five of the devices in the list are surveillance or spy devices which capture data that Amazon likely considers very valuable. As such, Amazon is likely selling many of these devices at cost or below because they provide Amazon with more data.

The list of five devices includes three cameras and two alexa listening devices.
Not really. To get into an Ivy League school you only need to perform well in high school and have the right connections and/or guidance to build the perfect resume.

With college grade inflation and the fear of blowback from failing well-connected ivy students, the only guarantee you get from hiring an average Ivy League student is that you have someone who can write high school essays well. The typical undergrad graduate still barely has any critical thinking ability.

If you want people fresh out of school who can ingest data, analyze it, and summarize it, you want good grad students. Good grad students come from non-Ivy schools more often than not.

The only industries that care about Ivy League at this point are the ones where connections matter more than intellectual ability. Everywhere else has recognized that the pedigree is not a useful signal (see Google’s hiring data on this).
Drunk driving laws are far from lax. In fact, my state puts of signs bragging about how bad you're fucked if you're caught driving drunk. Twenty thousand dollars in fines and court costs plus two years in jail, inability to legally drive for several more years plus the fact you can probably never afford insurance again, is plenty harsh enough to convince rational people not to drink and drive.

But, turns out alcoholics aren't rational people. So after they get out, they drive drunk, but this time they don't have insurance (and they're too broke to sue) so when they do cause an accident next time, the victim ends up needing to pony up the cash to pay for it.

I have several drunk family members who've been caught drunk driving multiple times. They've been to jail, and they don't have a license, but they still drive. This is not a problem you solve by making laws harsher (unless maybe you go to Sharia law levels of harsh and execute people after some number of offenses). You have to tackle alcoholism.
I upvoted you because you were brave enough to post a story about your texting and driving. While I agree in theory with your point that the law made texting and driving a less safe activity, what you were doing was already unsafe, don't you see that? You could have easily killed someone.

Cars have blind spots to check; pedestrians, pets, kids, bikes can come from no where really quickly. Don't you agree that drivers should have 100% of their cognitive capacity devoted to driving? If not, if you allow 90% of cognitive capacity to watching all around the roadway, multiply that 90% over millions of drivers, and you're statistically going to have thousands of unnecessary deaths and countless more injuries and accidents.

If you're texting "okay" or "on my way" and you kill someone, you will have killed someone's family member all for a completely pointless, inane text. Even if you never killed someone, and you only injured someone or scared the Beejesus out of someone, how is it worth the .001% convenience to text someone now instead of at your destination or pulling over briefly with hazards or turn indicator?

Sure, it's a problem, but motor vehicle deaths are down pretty substantially in the past decade. The per capita rate is down nearly 50% since the 70s. A lot of this is from safety standards, but I don't really see this as an epidemic.
That is more of the same IMO: yet more code to wipe off a symptom of a problem that we created with more code, as opposed to solving the problem.
So what then is the actual role management plays? They're paid the big bucks (absurdly so in the typical large US corporation), and yet largely they hardly make clear decisions, frequently "didn't know" about decisions that go catastrophically wrong and get golden handcuffs and parachutes to sweeten the do nothing but create anodyne PowerPoint decks with vapid goals. And when real decisions need to be made, yet more big bucks are paid to outside contractors to tell them what most everyone in the company already knows needs to be done.

Sigh ... the incentives and consequences for the top "decision makers" in a modern corporation are corrupt to the core.
Instructions for Loading ClojureScript onto an ESP32 Microcontroller
If you want to exploit parallel execution for performance, not having parallelism is not a benefit.
Exactly. Early in my career I learned that a consultant is almost never hired by an organization, a consultant is hired by a faction within an organization who already knows what they want the deliverable to be.
Yeah, get situations of a traffic light turning green and no body moving - it's incredibly annoying but not at all unsafe.

Maybe in the future, traffic can just stop entirely and everyone will virtually work from their phones.
Overleaf.com is another place to try out TeX without installing anything. (The free version is perfectly fine for almost anything other than collaborating with 3+ people on the same project.) The web interface isn't as nice as a proper text editor, but it's not too bad.

How do you know they should have fallen much further? How are you quantifying the increases in safety? Cars might be less safe even since cars are getting lighter to hit fuel efficiency regulations.
> Firefox is awesome.

Not if you’re a macOS user, in particular one that cares for automation. The lack of AppleScript (the bug report that tracks it is old enough to vote) prevents people from considering it as a daily browser. And I’m not just talking about developers. I regularly steer non-technical people away from Firefox because when they ask why my tools—which they want to use—don’t work on Firefox, I have to tell them the truth: I’d like to support Firefox, but I can’t.
Are you asking whether promotion of an in-house brand is anti-competitive behavior that should be subject to antitrust laws? That’s really not a question that’s been decided by society already, certainly not something that should just be assumed to be a positive trend.
Loup is right. No need to be super defensive.... Your initial post reads very wrong. I also was very surprised. It would help if you clarified
I no longer bike in areas without dedicated bike lanes because of this, and I'm not even sure how much safety a bike lane provides me.
Blackfynn Is Hiring a Data Curator in Philadelphia
Former McKinseyite here (and one reasonably skeptical of the firm as a whole)... nobody hires McKinsey for fresh college grads. That’s just something they tell fresh top of class Ivy League college grads to make them feel important. Clients hire Directors to give them peer level strategic counsel. How they technically allocate payment for time across consultants is just backfillling to get to a number already agreed to in advance.

AOSP is not an open source project, despite the name. It is an export of the parts of the proprietary Android project which Google sees fit to release to the general public. Android is developed in secret and then the AOSP version is exported out of it. As such, AOSP is definitely still very much "made by an ad company".

downside is it's closed source and not free
>but no one seems to be talking about how hands-free systems aren't helping either and are probably hurting by making people think they are being safe.

If anything it can lead to worse behavior where people that are trying to text keep their phone below window level requiring them to take their eyes further off the road. I realize it's an attentional issue and that having the phone up higher won't resolve that component, but if you don't even have peripheral vision of the road for seconds at a time because you're looking down, you've got no hope of having your brain send you a danger signal to visual input.
In the case of Scylla, we run on the Seastar engine, which runs single-threaded per core because it is very "greedy." Hence the CPU being pegged at 100%. It wasn't thrashing. We just squeezed everything we could out of it.

> ADs are acceptable to me

I would modify this to unobtrusive ads.

Ads with audio (video without audio doesn't bother me that much unless I'm on mobile, in which case it's eating up my mobile data), ads that pop into the middle of the screen, ads that run any JavaScript, etc., are unacceptable. But a simple banner on the side, even if it's an animated GIF? I'm alright with.

Unfortunately, ad networks decided that their ads are more important than the content I'm trying to view and have brought ad blockers upon themselves. And don't get me started on malvertising...
Amazon doesn't own the overwhelmingly pervasive marketplace in which all retail products, including theirs, are sold.

They do own a website that accounts for something like 4% of retail sales.
Sorry, I didn't mean for it to come off that way. I genuinely meant that it was a good writeup; however, tutorials that make it to the front page (I have noticed) usually have some content that's new/uses some newer or relatively unknown technology. The author definitely has a lot of other more interesting and in-depth writeups e.g. a 3 pt fullstack series on using svelt w/a node backend (https://tahazsh.com/fullstack-app-with-svelte-and-node-part-...) that barely got attention upon HN submission.

It's just surprising that out of that content, this makes it to the frontpage. I'm not faulting the author, I'm just curious as to what insight HN readers got out of this article.

Cyclist here. I've heard multiple other cyclists say things along the lines of "my life is not worth 15 second of your time". Typically in response to drivers making rather bad driving decisions, e.g., passing a cyclist too closely, that often don't actually lead to much time savings. It's the same logic. The benefit is much smaller than the cost, but the cost is typically paid by someone else.
I dunno I'd prefer to be regularly slightly inconvenienced to having some person on their phone slam into me while they run a red.

Open Source Will Define This Era as a Modern Renaissance
Couldn't the driver just authenticate as a passenger? It's not a good assumption to assume that, because there's only one cell phone in the car, it's going to be the drivers, so I don't know know an approach where the driver just can't circumvent the restriction.

If she’s only making $9.50 an hour she qualifies for some pretty cheap if not free healthcare. When I was in college working in a restaurant it was between $30-40 a month for healthcare I was making approx $20-25k a year.

I agree that Firefox has been doing great.

The one thing that's really lagging is adding back support for more of the customizations that were lost in the transition to the new architecture at FF57.

For example, one of the most useful and popular add-ons ever was called Tab Mix Plus. Here's a link to the open issues blocking the re-implementation of this functionality.

That'd all go for about 80% of my exposure to same, can confirm. Doltishness and lack of self-awareness re: the same sorts of things the consult on for others were especially surprising to me.
The trend is quickly becoming stores that sell almost exclusively store brand, augmented by other companies products to fill their cracks. Target, Walmart, and Costco would prefer to be Ikea than ebay. In many ways, I like it. I want target products, I go to target. I trust them to stand behind the quality of their product. Same goes for Kirkland. I dont go to Amazon to buy Kirland, anymore than I go to Best Buy to buy an Echo. Great Value I expect to be cheap but safe and not counterfit. Sure Wal-Mart might not be the most ethical business partner, and might be putting companies out of business, but I expect their store brand products to be what they say on the label.

The stores pushing their brand helps with the paradox of choice, comparison shopping, recommendations and reivews, and blame when something goes wrong. I expect them to do the work of selecting the best product and standing behind it. Its department store scale boutiques, store brand product curation (basically white label rebranding, maybe custom runs off the factory lines) is a feature, not a bug.

Amazon is doing a very similar thing by buying brands. Hopefully someday there is more to Alexa than voice, and there is a single something that allows you to see basic status and config of all your amazon products and services, whether they be Echo, Fire, Ring, Eero, Twitch etc.
