I've been driving for 40 years. I still hate 4-way stops.

In the late 70's in Connecticut, I was taught the first person to arrive goes first, followed by the person to their right and so on.

But there are so many holes with that heuristic itself! And putting aside guilt and anxieties of humans that prevent them from being assertive or committing--it's just a cluster fuck.*

However, I have noticed that people are becoming more comfortable with zipper merging in major cities on both coasts, so if we could arrive at some consistent 4-way stop rule that's 1) succinct, and 2) easy to remember, I have hope. :)

[* I'm referring to San Fran and the South Bay... but still better than my experiences driving through Italy and in Bengaluru!]
Your human eyes+brain do the same thing.
> I really don't see how this system is broken and needs to be fixed.

As I understand it, for YouTubers who rely on monetization of their videos, the system is completely broken. A ContentID strike takes down or demonetizes the video immediately. The YouTuber disputes the strike. Once processed, that video goes back up -- but it's too late, the monetary damage has already been done, as most of the money a video will make is made in the first few days. Having the video taken down and reinstated does not reinstate the lost revenue.

That said, I think that anyone who has a business that relies so heavily on income from from YouTube has a very precarious business to begin with. I'd advise them to get the majority of their nickels in some other way.
Office 365, Dynamics, LinkedIn are in "Productivity and Business Processes" which had revenue of $11.8 Bn in FY20-Q2,

Azure is in "Intelligent Cloud" which had revenue of $11.9 Bn in FY20-Q2.

Crema Coffee in San Jose Closes Due to ADA Lawsuit
I've read through that EFF page and also written my own guide to the process (at https://www.reddit.com/r/YoutubeCompendium/comments/aga8yl/h...)

I'm fairly confident in what I've said (there's content ID claims, both manual and automatic, and then there's DMCA claims). The EFF does not mention any third option. They mention ToS issues, which are strikes but which aren't because of copyright. And there's a brief mention of contractual obligations, which I mention in my post as well. Those aren't a separate way to take down content, but rather an agreement not to consider disputes from certain rights owners (as far as I know, the only one that's been identified is UMG). This is rare and I have not heard of widespread abuse of this.

It's somewhat confusing because Youtube doesn't always use the term DMCA in their documentation. But it's fairly clear when they say "formal notice", mention that it's a legal requirement, and link to the counternotice page.
Postcss with preset-env seemed to translate flexbox perfectly for me when I was supporting ie11. Babel does js translation acceptably as well.

It would definitely be nice to not specifically need the extra tools, but for a big enough project it seems silly to not use them.
> Having the video taken down and reinstated does not reinstate the lost revenue.

If disputed within 5 days, the money is held in escrow and disbursed upon reinstatement. See https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7000961?hl=en&ref_...
That's a good fix, but they should apply the filter to the data used in the driving logic also.
They aren't getting enough €50 or $100 notes to be a real logistical problem. You can put 10k in your pocket, and count it in a minute or two.
It's a readability thing. Many designers are taught (or organically arrive at the conclusion) that the ideal width to read an article at is roughly "book" width. There's some merit to the idea; it's easier to keep track of where the last line ended by seeing the shape of the words without needing your eyeballs to dance all over the place.

Once readability is founded, their argument is "who gives a rats arse about the rest of the page?" It's not the BEST design philosophy, but it's far from the worst one.
FTA: "All six display units (DUs) blanked with a selected instrument approach to a runway with a 270-degree true heading, and all six DUs stayed blank until a different runway was selected."

Holy f-cking f-ck.
> you may want to argue why AT&T is any different than Amtrak, The Postal Service, and the TSA

It isn't. But that's not an argument for nationalizing AT&T; it's an argument for privatizing the others. In fact, two out of three of them already have private competitors in the US; the only one that doesn't is Amtrak.
Supply and demand of labor would be a more accurate and concise way to describe this.

"if Microsoft hadn't bailed them out in 97"

This is a myth. Apple always had massive amounts of cash even at their low point when people considered them worth barely more than their cash.
A downpayment in the most exepensive place to live in the nation, but of course, given the massive income inequality in america!

I'm super confused here.

EDIT: How is 30-40k/year not enough for a child unless the child is special needs with bad healthcare?
I am not certain why there's such a big push to save these.
It sounds like a lot of communities involved in this sort of effort are barely scraping by to begin with so diverting a chunk of change into a historical prop seems a bit silly. Is there any educational value tied to the grain elevators or is it purely like Boston's Citgo sign - just a thing that's always been there?
They probably won't make cuts at all. Assuming they can even get a conviction, what's more likely is a consent degree like what they did in the Microsoft settlement. Either way, it'll be a decade or two before we find out.
The comparison is implicit. However the definition of Y is not. Assuming that Y must represent Democrats just because X represents Republicans is viewing the world in a binary and unnecessarily partisan way. Y could just as easy be some neutral, nonpartisan, or completely imaginary option dreamt up solely for the sake of comparison.
Guys. Using a cliched phrase like "top dollar" indicates irony. Repeating it, and especially repeating it in all caps does more than indicate irony, it is screaming irony right next to your ear.
I work for Google, opinions are my own.

In theory, breaking up monopolies increases competition which allows better companies/products to spring up that would otherwise be crushed by anti competitive practices. If you agree with that theory, then the act of breaking up monopolies actually makes the US more competitive.
Publish open specs for lightweight sites and grant them preferential placement in search results.
If the video has been taken down, then the video earns no money, so there's nothing to be held in escrow.
Bidding on trademarks has nothing to do with antitrust. If I can place a billboard for BMW next to a Lexus dealership, there is no reason I should not be able to show a BMW ad to somebody searching for Lexus or visiting a Lexus blog.
Interesting. Do you have more on that? I'd be curious to know more details.
If it worked so well, why isn't it good enough for self driving cars?

Life long vim user that was initiated by the terminal here, vim has a special place in my heart, not because the amount of customization that I was able to add, but because it enabled me to write actual diary.

Here's the script.

All I had to do was to type $diary in the terminal and I'm writing my diary in vim. I had never had more extensive record of my life. My distracted ass would never have managed this without that kind of access.
Agreed - you should always look at all-in costs, including financing. Normally better to get financing somewhere else ahead of time if you have good credit.
Google News might be a more compelling example - how would that ever hold up against the rest of the internet.

It's very different because way more users (not all users) will pick up on the fact "this website wanted to run an unannounced exe after a totally unrelated action, and that is bad"

Than will pick up on "this website wants to use your keyboard"

Your tech illiterate users fall for the former, but many people with just average technical knowledge would fall for the latter.

"This website uses your keyboard directly to secure your password, press yes when presented with the dialog"
What kind of intro course was this? Just an intro to programming, or something like data structures?

If it's the former, calculus as a prerequisite makes zero sense. It's bizarre that anyone would approve that idea.
"Just". Pro tip, these guys work on these problems all day every day. If you think you've solved one of their major problems after 18 seconds of consideration then you're probably missing a large amount of context.
EC2 costs almost twice as much per core as my company’s in house datacenters, and that’s before bandwidth.
Seems like an odd thing to say in response to such a clear example. Deserves maybe isn’t the right word but they earn it and people are willing to pay for the value so why not?
That's... exactly right, it's the entire point.

Assertions, check if a condition is true, and if it is false print an error message and exit the program. Assertions in rust are written `assert!(expr, optional_formatting_stuff)`.

Debug assertions do the same, but they are only executed when the `debug_assertions` flag is passed to the compiler, typically for performance reasons. In C terms, a debug assert is basically `#ifdef DEBUG_ASSERRTIONS assert(foo) #endif`. Debug assertiosn in rust are written `debug_assert!(expression, optional_formatting_stuff)`.

"Formally", arithmetic overflow in rust is defined to either wrap (as per 2s complement arithmetic) or panic.

In todays compilers that means they perform 2s complement artihmetic when debug assertions are turned off, and they panic when it is turned on. If performance of checking for overflows improves in the future, it will be considered an acceptable (backwards compatible) change to always panic instead, but that would have too large a performance impact today.

Actually driving a Tesla for 15,000 miles, of which perhaps 5,000 of those miles have been AP over the last 18 months, I can state this is totally false.

There has been extremely significant incremental progress with AP which is totally evident in everyday usage.

> How much inequality is acceptable?

Without inequality you'd also have to give up Teslas, SpaceX, and all those initiatives Bill Gates is investing in. Keep in mind that something like 37% of Federal Income taxes come from the 1%. Eliminate the 1%, and who is going to make up that money?
If she cashed it at the issuing bank the money is ready. Is she deposits it at her bank it will be ready in 3-5 business days. ACH transfers take time. Cash deposits do not. If she got paid on a Friday it might be 5 days before she would be able to withdraw.

I used to cash my paychecks at a check cashing store for the same reason. Even though they took a small fee the convenience of having money for the weekend was worth it.
There are legal protections for minority shareholders and boards of directors. Owning > 50% of the stock buys you lots of control, but not total control. Boards do remove CEOs all the time.
Right, but that means that what you actually want to do is store a hash of the password salted based on the identity of the machine you’re connecting to. (And the authentication protocol would be changed to verify possession of that hash rather than the password itself.) That way, not only do you avoid leaking the password itself, you ensure the hash can’t be used to connect to any other machines that use the same password. But changing the password is still what you need to do to block future access, preserving the expected semantics for sophisticated users.

(For bonus points, the salt should be re-randomized whenever the password changes, so that changing the password makes old hashes permanently useless, even if someone later changes the password back to its old value. Not that going back to an old password is ever a good idea, but some users will inevitably do it anyway.)

Edit: Actually, it’s probably better to use a completely random token and just have the server reset it whenever the password changes. That avoids any possibility of cracking the hash to recover the original password.
Tesla's system is also doing much more than simple segmentation and visual odometry. Tesla's latency around actuating the control surface is quite insignificant (a few ms) so I'd argue it is a fair comparison.
I find that part surprising. I get Alaska due to weather, but SD and WY are visually stunning and weather seemed is reasonable.
Basically everyone agrees that both latency and audio quality has decreased, and that can be measured (without sophistication) simply by checking radio & television call-ins over the past fifty years. It was slightly reduced with the introduction of wideband audio (not the latency problem, though), but has mostly gotten worse over time.

This is a great answer on Quora from a few years back to a question on why call audio hadn't improved, where the author explains that it hadn't just not improved, it had actually declined over time:

https://www.quora.com/Why-has-the-audio-quality-of-phone-cal...

There was also a great IEEE Spectrum post from a bit before the takeover of VoLTE and wideband audio as to why the decline had happened (and was probably going to accelerate as providers moved to switch from the PSTN to VoIP internally):

According to the Zen Buddhism "enlightenment takes no time, it can happen in a single, split second".

That being said in total agreement that having a base can make for a safer, deeper experience and or more lasting results.
Should be easy enough to code, no? Streams come built-in with Node, and I'm sure other runtimes have similar concepts. Emit data out of the stream when you have some, process data by listening to a stream and doing something when it emits.
Yeah, I'm glad I lived through those days but also glad they are mostly over.

SEEKING WORK | Boston, NYC | Remote

I'm a full-stack software engineer. Primary experience is with Javascript (ES6)/Node.js/React/GraphQL, Python/Django, and Postgres (and HTML/Sass/CSS). I'm comfortable working with PHP/WordPress, and generally, I can be productive with most tech stacks. I also have some experience with C and embedded programming.

I’m a generalist. I’ll automate repetitive business processes, build data pipelines, repair/rebuild outdated programs, write small-footprint embedded programs, create websites, or anything in between.

I have a history of delivering high quality final products on time, even when I wasn’t initially familiar with the technologies involved. If your project needs a skill that I don’t have, I’m happy to spend some time getting up to speed first.

I've worked with small startups (<10 people) and large corporations (>1000 people). I've helped coordinate/direct small teams (2-4 people), both in companies and in the OSS community.

Human frame rate is more like 1000 fps physiologically, effectively 150 fps with perception.
That's right now and that's why companies have to provide level 5 autonomy or there won't be any customers. Yet for days with good weather in urban environments level 5 might come within a decade; it's still better to be able to drive only half of the time instead of all the time. The long tail of problems that is supposedly plaguing self-driving systems exists with humans as well - how would you react if a bridge/building in front of you started collapsing or somebody started overtaking right in front of you?

Kind of a strange thing to say 350k to work as a board member is easy money, when the requirement to become a board member in the first place is to be a CEO who was previously being paid tens of millions of dollars a year.
Tesla is very open about how this works. I don’t own a Tesla but I assume they mention this in some agreement when activating these features.

By the way, they don’t collect all driving data. It’s too much data to transmit back home. They load test algorithms on to the car in “shadow mode” where they don’t control anything, then check for failures and send the car data from the failures back to Tesla. So very little data per car is actually shared.
