They literally call it "full self driving". I had a Model 3 with FSD last year, and it's really pretty pointless beyond a party trick. The actually useful stuff (lane-keeping and dynamic cruise control) is available in the base autopilot option, and is not much different from features in other high end cars. The FSD features are so unreliable as to be totally useless. Lane-changing was often scary, with it not spotting vehicles in the blind spot more than once. It somehow managed to miss exits on navigate on autopilot, and in any case the feature is available in so few places it's barely worth using unless you're only driving on highways. They also don't make it clear that advanced summon is basically useless outside the US, because it only works when you're within 10 meters of the car.

When I had to return that car when I changed jobs, I immediately ordered a new Model 3, because it's a great car and I really like driving it, but I didn't get the FSD option because it's dangerous, useless, and a waste of money. I've not missed it once. Now the only issue is that whenever I get in the car and I'm reminded of Elon Musk's antics, which makes me cringe a little, but that's another story.
> Zettelkasten is German for “slip-box”. It originates from German sociologist Niklas Luhmann.

Should this implicate that Luhmann invented Noteboxes? Because this is absolute not the case. There are many famous Zettelkaesten from famous people. The most famous might be the Mundaneum, a kind of wikipedia in noteboxes, from around 1900.

What Luhmann did was adding basic hypertext-principles to a common note-taking-tool.
The national guard has a bad track record, but at least it is legal and their job. The US military cannot legally do this.

> I don't support unions because unions drag everyone's wages to an average (I'd rather be a top performer and be paid accordingly).

I see so many more people with this viewpoint than can statistically all be “top performers”.

Given the low likelihood that any given person is a top performer, isn’t it better to organize in such a way that we all benefit?
This is absolutely the worst use of a union.

Good uses of a Union: maintain a high professional standard and high pay

Bad uses of a Union: protect incompetent members and get involved in political issues of interest to only a subset of union members. The threshold for getting involved in a political issue should be a minimum of 4/5s of members if not even higher.
Your comment removes so much context that it's nearly deceptive. He threatened military violence against rioting and looting, driven by terrorism.

Some of these rioters set fire to occupied buildings with children inside and prevented emergency services from accessing the location. In other words, property destruction and attempted murder.

Do you propose this behavior should be met with praise and not violence?

Yes I choose to focus on that. It's destroying the fabric of these cities. It will cost these cities decades to come back, if ever, from the decimation. On the other side of this is poverty, ruin, and gang violence. That's what happens when you burn the core of your city down.

I also see hateful graffiti sprayed all over my city about cops, despite the fact that the vast majority of them are peaceful and lawful and mean well for their communities. That seems to be lost on people as mob mentality has taken over.
This sounds similar to Computer Systems: A Programmer’s Perspective which was great and taught basically x86 but was a little light on linkers. Any idea how these compare?

Ask HN: Tools for Other Startups [B2B]
Hello everyone,

After seeing the regular hiring and related posts, I feel that HN is a great communication platform for products that are aimed at other startups. This is a new idea so I might get the format wrong, please suggest changes. This is just an attempt!

Format:

Company | Audience geography | Audience stage | Who is the buyer | Problem you solve

Details ...

Example:

Tom's Online Printing | US only | Regular printing needs | Marketing/Sales department | Bulk print deals, printed and delivered from a local supplier

At Tom's we are tying up with local printers and ...

I hope this helps startups match existing needs here.

Thank you, Sumit
Sorry to not have got back to you. We've tons of applications.
Bad analogy. You might as well ask why firefighters don’t pull teeth. It’s not their job.

Police swear an oath to uphold the law and it’s ostensibly their job to, when observing illegality, say “hey knock it off.”

Protesters do not swear an oath as a prerequisite to protesting. Protesters frequently do speak out against- and even forcibly prevent- looting and vandalism within their ranks, but if they don’t, it’s not a dereliction of duty in the same way as when cops ignore abuses in their ranks.
Sometimes that is the case.

Too often, in my experience, that assumption is made when it is actually technical debt that someone has to pay off down the road. It smells of move fast and break things.

Dealing with the memory alignment of PIC24 always breaks my mind.
Where I live we have trouble training enough new police officers to keep the number of officers stable or slightly increasing. I can't imagine that replacing the whole force is possible in the short term.
If Linux was a big-iron only OS, I could happily agree but, this stubborn thing works from Raspberries to mainframes and everything in between. So it's not always possible to run it on a CPU which can drive an ZFS on a multi-disk enclosure.

I'd rather have individually compressed files instead of running a heavier FS layer with smaller/less powerful systems.
The devil seems to be doing just fine without any help these days.
>There is also a terrible and shameful one I had never seen before, "Everyone to the Polish front". Do the owners know what they are posting there?

it isn't really more terrible/shameful than the rest of Revolution and Civil War related. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish%E2%80%93Soviet_War
- The Red Army was trying to get to Germany to support the Revolution there. It was along the ideology of sparking worldwide Revolution. It is just happened that the path was through Poland who wasn't a part of Russia anymore - it was a young independent nation state which has finally just got it independence back after more than 200 years of it being lost, and who had their own big plans https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermarium, and didn't want to be steamrolled by Russia again. Polish were very enthusiastic in that war and tore the Red Army/Bolsheviks a new one. Btw, Stalin was one of the main commanders of that invading force. In the history lessons in USSR schools those events were kind of muted and/or pretty much lost from the narrative together with many other events/facts which would be hard to fit into the supposedly glorious story of Revolution and Civil War victory by Bolsheviks.
This action only harms your business. You lose business, reach and free advertising. Facebook loses nothing.
Cops have guns and close to complete immunity to do whatever they want. They've been getting more and more militarized in the last couple of decades. They really, really don't need you to defend them.
And I can find whites being unfairly murdered by cops? Do white people now get to rise up and start looting?
People don't support what they're doing but don't think that's as strong of an argument so they use different tactics to try to minimize these actions.
Property destruction should absolutely not be met with violence, no. Things can be replaced. People cannot.
Please don't take HN threads into nationalistic flamewar, such as by preaching self-righteously at some other country. That helps nothing.

It’s hard to feel strongly about any cause when you’re generally intelligent enough to reason Ng about multiple aspects and develop a nuanced understanding.

Generally, the less intelligent someone is, the more strongly I observe them feeling about things.
Just a little warning to future historians - backup, backup, backup!

Unfortunately, too many details on Wikipedia tend to deteriorate. In the aftermath of 2004 election, there was a lot of articles on Wikipedia about suspected election fraud and anomalies. I don't think it is still there as extensively as it was back then (I looked and now it's a single, medium sized article).

"Zettelkasten" is a terminus technicus for the specific method Luhmann used. Nobody claims that Luhmann invented rectangular paper.

That word isn't in general use in German, and it's certainly not in general use in English. So I don't see any confusion.
Notable in this context is the band Franz Ferdinand:

My friends are scared of the protestors, not the police. Their fear is that the police will not show up if overwhelmed.

Violence in Montreal seems well contained for now.
So who do you think is going to prosecute that? For that matter, how do you plan to get passed power of the Pardon the President wields?

The Senate abdicated their responsibility and chance to hold Trump accountable. This is the outcome.

Can I somehow give that a PID so it can inject a set_trace or whatever in the current context?
Because there is no systemic pattern of cops killing Australian women, over and over and over and over again and not being charged at all. The police officer responsible was immediately fired and charged with murder, of which he was convicted [0]. Justice was served, what would people protest for?

Compare that to Floyd, where it took sustained protests to get the main perpetrator arrested.

When something terrible happens once, it is sad. When it happens over and over again, its not "bad apples" but a systemic problem that needs to be fixed. The protests are about similar incidents (cops killing black Americans) happening throughout the country. The people who protest see that reality and are moved enough to get out there and do something, anything in the face of that injustice.

The basic governing principles of the criminal justice system in the US is that the punishment should fit the crime. Regardless of however flawed human being George Floyd was, he did not deserve to die as he did. Many, many Black Americans did not deserve to die.

Please educate yourself if you're genuinely interested in learning about the reason why so much of the country feels the need to come out and protest during a deadly pandemic.

Ask HN: Do you have a “God-Mode” for your product?
By "God-Mode" I mean you have a feature in your product where it allows certain users to do "admin" tasks (delete this, shadow-ban him, edit something, login-as certain user etc).

We do at work. And it's a little scary. Several people at work use this "God-Mode" to manage users, and do certain things. I understand it makes things very efficient. Often it's done so that non-tech people don't have to bug engineers. Would love to hear your thoughts or experiences? Any negative experience of having the God-Mode?
Agreed 100% it’s an amazing documentary, especially the convoy section. Having been at Bagram myself (the same base the Soviet aircrew was at in the movie) I was also amused at how similar the experiences were.
So the question here is: Would the response have been the same if all the heavily armored folk were black?

As a born and raised American, I'm inclined to think not. I could be wrong of course, but everything that I've seen and experienced growing up and living in the US has led me to believe otherwise.

I want to think that more protestors being armed would make a difference, but ultimately I believe it will just lead to escalation and more deaths by cop (and/or the national guard, as we're finding out in Louisville currently).
Not when there's so much public information on wages. Compare your wage to the average among others in your location with your title. In my case, I earn about 110% more than the average salary for my title in my location. If I earned the average salary, I wouldn't be so high performing. I wouldn't care about my work beyond the minimum required to not be fired.
Chrome does too, I hear.

Recently I was able to read a book from 1850 because somebody bothered to go to a library, scan it and publish as ebook for 1USD. And the book itself was a new print for a work that was published 50 years before so it was published after the copyrights expired.
> who was being arrested for another criminal act

ReticentVole believes the penalty for a criminal act is death.

> but a huge injustice and evidence of massive inequality when a man with a history of violence, in the process of resisting arrest, is killed by the same incompetent police force

Oh, you're an all-lives matter person! Why didn't you say so? Go fuck yourself.
These are protests against actual murders and property damage. Should the standards you're applying to the protesters be applied to the police?
I just finished it, what is the part exactly is the problem? What is the timestamp of the offensive part?

Considering that it was a private administration call they didn’t intend to be public, I’m not sure “you gotta arrest these people” over and over is wrong.

I must have missed it in my first pass, can you help me out with a timestamp?
It shouldn't be met with more violence.
“That evening, a group of 30 to 130 men, some dressed in the Mohawk warrior disguises, boarded the three vessels and, over the course of three hours, dumped all 342 chests of tea into the water. ... The property damage amounted to the destruction of 92,000 pounds or 340 chests of tea, reported by the British East India Company worth £9,659 worth, or $1,700,000 dollars in today’s money. The owner of the two of the three ships was William Rotch, a Nantucket-born colonist and merchant.”
Is this a random thought or something that has seen more debate? Are there articles or papers comparing this approach to the other?
> False. Professional organization give licensure. The union represents those who have licenses and or work for an agency where majority of those license holders work.

Incorrect!

Most doctors are probably solo or group practice. This means one or a few doctors work together in a business that they own. This business then contracts with hospitals to provide services. Kaiser Permanente is different in that it hires doctors directly, but it is the minority.

The AMA (American Medical Association) is not a union and does not negotiate on behalf of doctors. It is more a lobbying and advocacy group.
I have experienced this.

I consider myself a staunch rationalist and atheist.

But during a specific phase in my life, when I was dealing with something that was right on the knife-edge (almost exactly 50/50 odds, calculated analytically using financial mathematics), I became very superstitious about knocking over salt on the table. Whenever I went to a restaurant I’d ask to have the salt removed to avoid knocking it over.

I reasoned that I attached a low probability to the superstition about salt being true (yes, I know its origins: salt used to be extremely valuable so wasting it was prima facie ‘bad’) yet that low probability of it being true applied to the tiny margin I had available to me made it significant to me.

Yeah, stupid, I know.
Sure, but there's quite a few keywords in English. And then there are so many APIs and so much source code with symbols that consist of English words.

> Your comment removes so much context that it's nearly deceptive.

How much more "context" do you need? You don't go around dispatching the military to shoot at your own citizens, not in a state governed by the rule of law. No amount of civil unrest will let an accountable government get away with that.

> Do you propose this behavior should be met with praise and not violence?

Please don't put words in my mouth.
Maybe you are right and I won't pooh-pooh anybody who participates, but what about when Freddie Grey was killed? Similar thing happened in 2015, protests around the country and that didn't seem to accomplish anything. The protests now are much larger it seems this time, but unless they go on for a while (which I hope they do), I just don't see anything changing. It seems like law enforcement isn't going to have a sudden change of heart because people are telling them they are wrong and local politicians don't seem to be effective at enacting change in their police departments.
He can and does use television now. Television takes longer to setup and doesn't reach the same people. You can't go on TV to share a one sentence thought but you can easily do that on Twitter.

So long as you think there's at least one person who he reaches by social media that he wouldn't reach with traditional media, it seems you are obligated to conclude that banning him from social media would reduce his reach, or in other words, trouble him getting his message out.

I'm sure he could still easily get huge messages out, but would have much more trouble getting out minor messages of the kind he uses Twitter for.
There are certain things that exist only within University settings, but are almost unheard of in the Real World. So looking in from the outside, it's almost perverse.

As an example, scientific research papers were still being published in raw PostScript (PS) format long after PDF existed and become the defacto desktop publishing standard for 99.9% of the world outside of academia.

The use of AT&T assembler sticks out for me too, because I had learned Intel assembler back in the IBM XT days and wrote "demo" programs and all of that. And then my university used AT&T which was just so bizarre because literally 99% of the students had IBM compatible computers at home with Intel CPUs! Most of the lecturers had Intel PCs, most of the labs had Intel PCs, and it was just a handful of Solaris machines that had RISC CPUs and toolchains based on AT&T assembly.

Similarly, if you Google "Kerberos", an insane number of references pretend that this can only mean "MIT Kerberos", and is used for University lab PC authentication only. Meanwhile, in the real world, 99% of the Kerberos clients and servers out there are Microsoft Active Directory, and all configuration is done via highly available servers resolved via DNS, not static IP addresses.

Some design aspects of Linux and BSD have similar roots, and it shows. The DNS client in Linux is quite clearly designed for University campus networks. Combine this with typical University servers using hard-coded IP addresses for outbound comms, because of things like the Kerberos example above, and you get an end result that doesn't handle the requirements and failure modes of more general networks very well.
Destroying businesses and disrupting the lives of innocent people is not how you convince them to go along with whatever you want. Is that how they will proceed from now on whenever they need something from the people? What a bunch of garbage.

The vast majority of people in those cities would've already supported them. And they bite that hand. Often hands just as brown/black as theirs...they don't care, because what they seek is power, not justice.
Yeah, I get it. It's lot more idiots. Also lot more people who don't know that vote counting can actually be done in logarithmic time.
Social media is a dead end. The results are depression and misinformation.

Unless you believe truth can easily be determined, there is no tweak that Zuck and Jack can do to fix their platforms. At least Zuck is honest about it.
Probably because it was boilerplate. When people show up in threads with a pre-existing list of links, that's not conversation, that's talking-points. HN threads are supposed to be conversations.
IMHO the nazis won their support in the end by two major events. The French occupying the Ruhr area, and Black Friday, with extreme unemployment. And of course US money backing the Nazis and the German war industry to fight communism. Communism was the major threat to fight. The US still has this same mindset.

The Nazi party were not thought to be so authoritarian really, more a fresh new modern party solving a lot of problems. The military and some other parties were more authoritarian. Just the SA and SS were considered a problem. Before, the right and left had their own private armies also, and there were constant street fights. Nazis were softer than the military in the total war efforts. (before 33 of course, but even until 43 it was only military penalizing the famous Treachery Act, which came directly from WW1 stab-in-the-back myth). Antisemitism was extremely widespread because of the Black Friday crash.

Peaceful?! Wow...

> The alarm bells of fascism are ringing loudly, are the American people listening?

What are you listening/smoking, dude? Fascism is shown by liberals (aka socialists/communists) who are trying to get as much power over people they can manage (this is classic definition of fascims, btw); or 'antifa' movement who exactly resembles Hitler's brown-shirts.

It was well orchestrated attempt to enter White House premises by f*king peaceful protesters. In other cities there are some peaceful protests daytime that turns riot come night, mostly by low life scam who couldn't care less about justice.
Universally condemned? Come on, now.
>Please don't put words in my mouth.

It's a simple question, and I never implied your response either way.

Do you think violence by police or military is justified when individuals are setting fire to occupied buildings?
That's a good point, I didn't know Audi was shipping a model with Lidar out and the price point is around where the Tesla's are. Certainly the reasons to not include Lidar are dropping.
Obviously and eventually. Shipmate before self and all.
The way the US legal system works is if the US Attorney General tells the US President an act is legal, regardless of if it is, until the Supreme Court or Congress act, the President is free to do as the US Attorney General said.

Under the US Constitution, The President is the Commander in Chief of the military, to not follow a direct order would be a likely be a crime for anyone within the military.

Trumps statements counted as a proclamation, if the US Attorney General said they did.
