> Tesla have designed and currently sell the three safest vehicles ever produced in the history of the world

The only place this sort of shit comes from is Tesla's marketing copies, which is the same singularly dishonest place that brought us "autopilot" for glorified driving assistance.
You’re focusing on single-threadedness like that’s a problem but it’s not. For example, you can run multiple processes on a single core system just fine — even if one of those processes hangs.

AFAIK there’s nothing in the JS language that forces a single-threaded implementation. I think the real reasons that Node is single threaded are a) legacy and more importantly b) a lot of existing code would break if events were dispatched in parallel.
Hardly been "well known for over a decade". A decade ago, Rosetta was well-supported. The dropping of Rosetta support in Lion was quasi-abrupt, but understandable (it arose from a licensing concern after the tech was acquired). The 32/64 transition was announced a few years ago, but it was hardly something known a decade ago.
I wonder if the Hummer was ever sold in Europe? It would seem to have many of the same issues as the CyberTruck.
Ahhh, the "Magical Market" that solves all... even in the most capitalists of countries safety regulations are necessary.

Manufacturers' optimisations for making their cars enticing to you does not mean they have to put a lot of thought in making their cars safe for _others_ on the road.

Safety Regulation is there to make sure those constraints are given a high priority in the design of equipment so it doesn't kill you, your passengers or the people around you.
Why should you be able to?

A court may grant an injunction preventing publication of certain facts or identifying you in proceedings, but that's specific, why should it be possible to opt out of ever appearing?

And where would it end, because there's no reason for that not to be everyone's default position, but then if you run some business such that you need the exposure, you're going to want 'business-only' results.

Or do you mean that news would be allowed, it just wouldn't appear in search results? How would I find an article I recalled and wanted to revisit?
> isn’t communication less hidden if anything?

Not everyone uses IRC (but it has archives). Email (and its archives) are a thing, too.

Given you can read all the development of the Linux kernel since almost the beginning (and they don't use chat IIRC), I don't think you are correct.

> There’s a reason large open source projects moved to these (React, Rust, etc).

No, there is no reason. They are newer projects with younger people and they just picked something more modern, based on a web browser.

If there was truly a reason, the kernel and other projects would have moved, too.

You can argue, of course, the pros and cons of each alternative.
You're misunderstanding. I'm saying you can have multiple identical `int a;` across multiple translation units and it will point by default to a single global variable across the program. So you can include a single header from multiple places, and you just get a single shared global variable, if the header contains `int a`.

Given that many larger businesses are already going to have well established workflows around PowerPoint presentations that are going to be hard to shift, you may be better trying to control the ‘analytics’ portion of the value chain rather than the presentation creation segment.

Have you considered building a tool where people could upload their existing PPTX presentations into Sizle and access analytics on them? I can see that adding real value. At the moment you are probably limiting yourself to SMBs and freelancers.
Yeah, all mentions of "Sicherheit" in the linked source (which is just a mainstream news channel transcribing some car magazine interview btw) would best be translated with safety, rather than security.

> We need to applaud companies like Slack, but know that the nitty-gritty of human services—housing, health care, social support—which lots of nonprofits and public institutions are working on, the private sector has largely turned away from.”

I mean, yeah? Those things sound like they’re precisely the kind of stuff that’s the domain of non-profits and the government. Why would we expect Slack or other tech companies to be helping random people with housing or social support?

The private sector does help here, indirectly, with taxes that go to support such programs. And it’s the government that sets the tax rate and decides where revenue goes, not the private sector.

You can blame the government, or the people who voted them in, but blaming Slack and co. is silly. It’s not their job, and it shouldn’t be: you don’t want the institutions with profit motive to be the ones handling charitable works. That’s part of the whole reason we have a government.

>in english, seeing black is a finance colloquialism at best. at worst, its a pejorative for racist tendencies. im guessing its a different sentiment in Germany entirely.

Are you a native speaker? I've never heard 'seeing black' said in a racial sense. It is however colloquially used (in the UK at least).

I think it's also an idiom in German (my wife, a German, uses it often). Also not in a racist sense - also simply meaning, to 'see nothing good about' something.
Bit rambling, but it boils down to a critique of fad-driven management: we have do TDD, Agile, whatever, but --from the developer's point of view-- more as an end than a means.
No Rust did actually move (its 'official') channel off IRC.

I believe it was sort of catalysed by Mozilla shutting down its IRC servers, but presumably it was already an issue being discussed, and that was just the final nail.
I haven't touched analytics in 15 years, but back then what you describe for visit was called a session. That seems less ambiguous to me.
Catalina makes them all-but-required, though, even for non-store apps, between SIP (System Integrity Protection) and the on-by-default enforcement of notarization.

On previous versions of macOS, regular developers could mostly avoid needing to touch them by just not being a store app.

iOS developers have had to think about them since the early days.
Yes. Rather than being peppered with ads for credit repair services, obscure/irrelevant drugs, or other things that I’m not interested in and therefore waste 100% of my time, I’d rather be marketed to about products/services I’d consider buying (or ads that will entertain me).

The Hummer was sold in Europe. As a light truck requiring a C1 license, which aside from being different than the B license of a regular car has to be renewed every 5 years (until 60, then 2 years until 76 then 1 year) with a medical exam on each renewal.

I would argue that more innovations and overall safety for passengers increased more due markets than it did due regulations. While it might not be the priority, but more pedestrian safety is still a nice thing to have.
I'm pretty sure you can implement min/max with a Cassowary-style constraint solver using multiple constraints with priorities.

For example to get the max between v0 and v1 you can use those 3 constraints:

[v0 > limit @ priority1, v1 > limit @ priority1, limit == -infinity @ priority0]

|limit| contains the max, which you can use in other constraints.
Kotlin Flow Binding APIs for Android UI Widgets. New Stable Release v1.3.0
Darkness is temporary (in the sense of nights) only when close enough to equator. Here in Finland even as far south as you can go solar efficiency drops to almost nothing for a good 4 months a year. And in the north it goes to literally to nothing. And it isn’t very safe to rely on other counties for electricity over this period. Doing that basically hands the keys to freeze a sizable portion of our population to an external entity (government)

Though even now we aren’t independent when it comes to heating over the winters. We have to import oil, gas and coal. But with those one can have strategic stockpiles to last over the next/current winter at least if things go bad. Kind of similar for nuclear fuel. We have stockpiles for years but don’t mine it here (we could but economically much cheaper to buy from Sweden and Russia). Just much easier to stockpile that stuff.

But yeah for the vast majority of the whole planets population solar with batteries should work just fine.

Gross misrepresentation of the truth.
I tried Safari/O'Reilly Online and I think it is too expensive.

The time I can spend every month for "extra" reading translates to roughly one book. For 49 USD a month, I could just buy the book secondhand every month (and even sell it further when done).

I would have happily paid 5 USD a month, but 49 USD, that's way too much for the value, for me.
See that's why you talk to a lawyer first. They could let you know what the possible forks of 'see what happens' are. There might be angles there that are detrimental to the OP and it would be good to be aware of those up front before doing things that can't be undone, such as saying 'no'.

I don't believe you need to be recertified per se. As far as I know, you need a medical exam but that aside it's an administrative procedure.

I agree the guy is an expert - but let's be perfectly honest. He has never seen, driven or tested one, and has spent zero seconds reviewing and understanding the design. He is purely speculating like everyone else on the internet.

Obviously he knows what he's talking about when it comes to safety and vehicles. I think it's safe to say he knows very, very little about the Cybertruck yet.

This is 100% pure speculation, like almost everything about the Cybertruck on the internet so far.
We all want the best drivers and pilots, but all the drivers or pilots have to pass an exam, if there is no fraud then all the drivers and pilots that are licensed are capable to operate the vehicles and you can't demand that only race/rally drivers and military grade pilots would operate this machines.

Anyway the fact that the pilot could have done more or not is a completely unrelated topic with all Boeing issues, MCAS or non-MCAS. I will patiently wait for the full reports, I hope there will be record on how did Boeing decided to make the warning that the sensors are malfunctioning a paid DLC, who was the person that decided or what were the procedures that decided that a malfunction warning should not be the default.
I would be highly surprised if the habitable zone of our planet in 'sustainable' mode would be the exact same habitable zone in 'unsustainable' mode.
Energy density is largely irrelevant. What matters is cost, and in most of the world the energy density of solar does not cause a large increment to the cost. Land is mostly cheap.

I'm not sure if I would have the same opinion - but his PoV sounds very human. I'm not sure if I would have liked my employees causing issues for me either, if I was in his position.
It provides more visibility into the funnel. Seems valuable. Whether it's ethical or not is something different.

Examples of the value it could bring:

Did the prospect drop off because they never even opened the presentation, or did they at least consider it?

After it's been opened, was it opened a bunch more times? Shows that it wasn't ruled out or glazed over.

How recent was it last opened? If it was today then we know it's still under consideration. If it was a month ago, seems like the lead has gone cold.
I can't believe what I'm reading.

> By 2009 things were in disarray; the love of quality had completely given way to a mechanical process of checking boxes and several times I landed in hot water for being too thorough.

He's describing Microsoft in a time where they didn't deliver any quality product at all. They didn't in the 80s, not the 90s or 00s.

Then he continues that he was close to leaving the company because they started to apply Test Driven Development.

Of course he's also not a fan of agile and he has a strong dislike for user stories while user scenarios is perfectly fine a term for him.

Of course he's also not fond of team work, especially if you use a term for that he doesn't like.

I can imagine him going into the office and telling young software engineers who approach him to get off his lawn.

People like him aren't going to be missed. Their arrogance of not needing teams, being able to handle projects completely by themselves and their judging attitude towards new approaches and terms is so last century.
The homepage looks really professional and slick. A link to a dummy presentation would be a valuable addition though, as not every person is confident signing up to try it.

I'm not sure this is comparable. The question is, does the crumbling matter against a person not in another car. I've seen small super-brittle cars not being damaged at all by a collision with a pedestrian.

Ncap includes these tests and it seems they're more interested in flexibility in that case, not in crumbling.

Depends entirely on the employment agreement. Many will automatically assign ownership of any code written to the employer.
There is only only one appropriate response to this: “Ok Boomer”

The only part I can agree with is that developers need periods of uninterrupted time everything else just comes off as an old man telling kids to get off his lawn. It took much longer to iterate on software in the 80s and 90s than it does now. And that is supposed to be a good thing? Agile has made the software development process much easier by reducing the feedback loop and taking a lot of the guesswork out of development. Daily stand ups may seem dumb to you but that’s because you refuse to get any value out of it. You can’t really say it’s over communication because it is supposed to be limited to 15 minutes. You should also know what your partners are working on because sometimes you both might be working on components that impact one another.

> Model X first and only SUV to get 5 starts from the Euro NCAP:

It's not even the only SUV to get 5 stars from 2019: https://www.euroncap.com/en/ratings-rewards/latest-safety-ra...

You managed to out-shill tesla's own marketing copy, your link merely states that it got 5 stars from NCAP and outlines points they think are of interest. At no point do they state it's the "first and only SUV" to get 5 stars from either NCAP or NHTSA (they do state it's the first and only SUV to get 5 stars in every single category and sub-category which is an impressive claim but much less so than your statement).

> Quote from Euro N-Cap themselves: "The stand-out performer of this round is undoubtedly Tesla’s Model X, scoring 94 percent for Safety Assist, the same as the Model 3 scored early this year. This makes the two Teslas the best performers in this part of the assessment against Euro NCAP’s most recent protocols"

I don't know if you can't read the quote you provide or you don't remember your original statement: this praises safety assistance, it doesn't say that it's "the […] safest vehicles ever produced in the history of the world".

> I could keep Googling…

Yes I'm sure you could keep shilling, and, frankly, lying.

I don't even understand why you keep doing that, Tesla absolutely does get impressive results and are at the top of the pack, had that been your assertion that would've ben fine, and would have supported your point (regardless of your point being somewhat off from the article's explicit concerns about pedestrian safety on which Tesla scores are generally good but in the low 70s where other cars manage 80s and even the rare low 90s for the Z4[0] and the CLA[1]).

I am wondering how they will try to compensate when the browser is actively blocking referrer information. In that case the data will be polluted like the website has received more unique visitors, but it is not the actual.

In earlier times, this kind of tracking was the norm. Big Analytic companies tried to distill this information and add value to the existing data to make sense. So the cookies and fingerprinting were added to distill that data.
I've observed Grand Canyon South Rim is a great example. They actively work the tourists who make hand-to-mouth gestures and steal when items are unguarded. Their team strategizing while hacking bear-proof garbage cans is impressive, too. One handles the door/partition while one or more enters for the snacks. I spent 1/2 a day watching them.
Oh wow, that’s exactly what I’ve been looking for! Brilliant!
”Regular programming” and ”regular programming” have different constraints and goals. Unless you think that e.g. a sound card driver and a web browser are developed with the same goals in mind and under the same constraints, you agree that games are not exceptional in this regard.

IMO it is more useful to think of software and its development as simply more or less complex.

Also, your whole post basically ignores GP’s argument that not everything is either a CRUD app or a game. Maybe it would serve your argument better if you took care to read and respond to his.
Programming generally provides people with a lot of power. Either in access to data or obviously code. In that, there is a lot of trust requested and given. I know lots of enterprises add a lot of "scans" and "checks" and limit things to much complaints to remove the "we trust you" from the equation, but still you can't scan for everything.

The open question is how much trust do you want to give?
