This is merely a demonstration of what it is capable of in ideal conditions.

Perhaps the driving engine was manually pre-trained for this particular stretch of road. Maybe what we see in the video is one successful run out of 100s that have been tried. We do not know the details. In my opinion it is reasonable to assume that it was a publicity stunt. Maybe if you try the same thing on a neighboring road two hours later, it would fail 95% of the time.

So far, the customers cannot use this level of autonomy. We can only speculate why but I believe that if it was usable in real world scenarios, Tesla would have enabled it. Since Tesla does not enable it and instead focuses on low hanging fruits like stopping on red lights, it appears that the technology is not ready yet. I think that is the main issue with Tesla's advertising about it. Not the name they use for it.

I can imagine that $8000 option of "full self driving" sells better than $8000 option of "restricted driving assistance limited to ideal weather and traffic conditions hopefully available in a few years", for instance. But at the same time I believe that using misleading product names or descriptions in order to increase the product's perceived value should not be tolerated.
I've done this a few times too and posted those on Youtube. Good times.

Streaming could be fun, but if you're streaming something you're actively learning (let's say a new piece of tech while you build something), for me it would be likely 50 minutes of Googling and 10 minutes of coding for every hour. That's how I talk myself out of not streaming because I personally would get bored watching someone Google things endlessly.
Can you give an example of a common situation where a programmer should have used expm1 or log1p but didn't? (the way it's common for people to test if something is inside/outside a circle or sphere by comparing the square root of the sum of squares to the radius as opposed to compare the sum of squares to the square of the radius, or use trig functions when linear algebra will do)

I do a reasonable amount of computational programming but to my recollection I've never used either of those functions.

I think you're missing a category (3) people who have no reason to micro-manage their finances but rather use double entry accounting to keep track of where things äre coming from and going to on a rather high level. That's where I fit in.
By that argument we should block all non-national apps or services and create national networks instead, since you are assuming everybody is fine with the US as a country imposing their views and values to every country.

I can see Middle Eastern countries getting offended by several things we are used to. In short, anything that is not Western would be difficult in that sense, but even among Western democracies, there are taxation issues for these services and different views on privacy.
There would be no fraud in scratching 'ONE CENT' off of pennies that were, by law, worth 5¢.

But also, when was the last prosecution for defacing a coin in the United States?

What sort of monster would call the police on a fellow person for passing a damaged penny?

How would the prosecution's burden of proof be met?

describe the steps to release the simplest ever code in javascript to production: write a js file, host it, done.

The same thing in TS adds at least one step (not to mention the rest of the tooling you will want)

So while a prefer it over JS, there's no arguing that it is more complex as now you require a build step for a language that only exist because people wanted a language without a build step.
The US Mints could just sell blanks to the tourist traps and they in turn could raise the price to $1.

I use cash all the time. I like to round out my errands with a beer at a brewery before biking home. Hand the server a $5 bill when I get the beer, so fast also a strong tip on the cheapest beers. I'm also forced to use cash when I purchase my medical marijuana. I drink Americanos when I purchase a coffee, $2 or $2.25 is pretty reasonable but I sometimes can get the exact change for a place charging $2.15.

I think digital and physical money has it's uses and I will use cash in my wallet first because any phone or credit card solution is slower.

Well, the knowledge exists. 20% unemployment was seen widely internationally after the 2008 financial collapse. The results were devastating, don’t get me wrong, but some of the effected areas were able to recover fairly quickly. So we do know how to deal with 20% unemployment, but—sadly—we might not be willing to for some reason.
I have a weird experience sometimes when waking up. It's not sleep paralysis, at least I don't think so, it feels more like a deep meditation.

The only way to describe it is that I (my mind) is working at two different levels. At one I am dreaming or thinking of something and at another level I am observing the dreams of the first "I".

Really hard to explain. Does anyone else have this happen or know the phenomenon?
In aviation the auto-pilot is a relatively dumb machine that must be supervised, whereas a co-pilot is a human that could be trusted with full operations of the aircraft.

So if a coworker goes to your workplace every day and says, "Slg is an idiot and a worthless human being who makes the company worse with his or her presence" that's not harassment? Because it's not based on race, religion, sex, etc? The article particularly highlights harassment in the basis of protected class. It does not say that harassment on the basis of things other than protected class is permitted. If what you claim is true, then in the above scenario you would not be able to claim harassment with respect to a co-worker that constantly insults you.

And regardless even if harassment does require discrimination, Weiss has grounds to claim it on the basis of religion.
I'm not sure I agree with your consensus. I would agree that partisanship might increase but not sure if that's the same as Extremism? Can you explain your connection more?

It's supposed to be ironic - if Tesla were "only better cars", then people wouldn't bend over backwards to give Elon every benefit of the doubt. A "nicer car" doesn't get you to the point where people worship your just born baby on Twitter. Teslas are amazing cars. However, Tesla is valued so much more than just delivering a better horse, and I don't think they could have scaled up as quickly had they not been financed by memes (I don't want to downplay Tesla's amazing execution up until this point, they have taken the opportunity they got and delivered, they could have easily squandered under the weight of Elon's promises).
The newspapers don't know what to do with themselves.

In my opinion, they're following because we're in a period of flux or change in our society, driven by the massive impact of the internet and the barriers to publication being practically zero now.

Because there are so many voices shouting out right now, it's impossible to find the ones who are speaking "the truth" when that was something defined by a handful of editors in newspapers and TV networks 30 years ago.

Into this cacophony we also have bad actors, people, organizations, countries who intentionally set out to poison the truth and watch it die. I don't know if that problem is solvable in any way with the Internet in its current form.

Parallel with that misinformation and disinformation, society (speaking mostly about the USA) is struggling with enormous capital and power inequality. Groups of people of every political leaning know that "something is wrong" but so many are being told to blame this or that group of others.

We've been shown that those with the command of immense resources can exploit and control our laws and government to the point of being beyond the law. We've been shown that we may not be able to do anything about that without significant revolution.

So in this period of massive change, we're told we're powerless.

I don't understand this phrase. I certainly wouldn't describe what I experience when I take the time to consider things at face value as causing anything I'd describe as whiplash. Just because I attempt to evaluate what I read from another's perspective doesn't mean I give up my own in the meantime.

So the problem is with TCP DNS responses larger than 65280 bytes... With a CVSS score of 10.0, something tells me this is gonna be pretty trivial.

Get / cause the DNS server to send a legitimate (TCP-based) query to your server, reply with a crafted response > 65280 bytes, BOOM?

I expect it shouldn't take long to figure out the issue -- and, thus, how to craft a "magic packet", just by examining the bindiff/patch. Hell, it might even be possible to trigger it just playing around with a TCP fuzzer!

Yep, that's pretty much what their community says on the tin. If that was what they actually were in practice I don't think it would have even been an issue. Sure, the trans community would have probably still disliked them, but like it's not like trans people are some big cultural powerhouse. There have been old-school well-respected academics that held similar opinions since the dawn of second-wave feminism. And don't get me wrong, there has always been plenty of infighting among feminists along this line -- many impassioned conferences, books, articles written about it. And it's from these people that GC takes their heritage and has used it for years to "legitimize" their hate. It's what allowed them to survive online as long as they did because they knew how to fly just under the radar.

Then, like a lot of subreddits, GC got bigger and the new influx of people weren't uhh... so subtle and more and more of the content became insulting, shaming, and "cringe" directed at specific trans people.
It is essentially a rant with not much substance. If this was a comment on HN it would be flagged probably. Like to hit at so many things in 3-4 paragraphs you aren't making an argument for or against something, you are just making a scattershot blast on like most of systems stuff today.

Kinda when compared against perfection. Not when compared against SEV.

Consider that most of the side channel attacks being exploited against SGX also work across process and across VM domains. They tend to get advertised as SGX specific because that's the juiciest, newest and coolest target to hack. But they can break arbitrary CPU enforced protection domains.

Some of these side channel attacks are Intel specific. Many of them aren't: they're to do with how CPUs are designed, which is why Spectre et al affect AMD as well.

Whilst SGX gets a lot of focused attention from researchers exploring side channels, it has turned out to be pretty robust against the more ordinary kinds of attacks that felled a lot of prior systems, including multiple generations of SEV. Nobody has ever found basic cryptography or C programming bugs in the system enclaves, for example. I thought that would happen at least once - never did. All the bugs have been people reverse engineering CPU internals to a much greater degree than ever done before.

One reason they do this is because SGX is patchable in the field. A remote client can tell if the CPU microcode and SGX stack were updated to close vulnerabilities. Intel call this TCB recovery. So, it's kinda 'ethical' to research SGX bugs because you aren't breaking anyone's equipment.

AMD SEV has sadly not had a working equivalent of TCB recovery in prior versions. There was an attempt at such a mechanism but it can't stop downgrade attacks, so doesn't really work. Researchers have managed to totally break SEV such that the CPU generation itself had to be discarded and replaced, not just once, but multiple times. That's the worst case scenario for hardware roots of trust. Hopefully the new gen chips won't suffer any similar fate.

Given the fact that SGX has always been renewable/patchable, that all bugs found in it were really hard-core low level CPU design bugs of the type that AMD have also had, and that it has a stronger security posture to begin with (less code in enclaves than a whole OS), I'd say overall it's doing well. Now SEV is playing in the major leagues I expect to see more research on AMD chips: it'll be interesting to see what they come up with.
I suffer from migraines. And like many migraineurs, I am very sensitive to light even when I'm not having a migraine. Given that ~15% of humanity gets migraines, and many of them are (to some degree) in the same boat as me, I find this obsession with bright & blinking lights utterly appalling. It's negatively effecting millions of people, with hardly benefit.

Useless bright lights are everywhere. Often without any way to tone them down or turn them off. I don't mind getting funny looks for wearing sunglasses on cloudy days, but I don't want to wear sunglasses indoors ... and yet people keep slapping more and more LEDs on absolutely everything. I have little globs of Blu Tack all over my house, covering LEDs on the most ridiculous appliances.

Stop it. Just. Bloody. Stop. How hard can it be for a product designer to ask the question "does this LED convey useful information?", and just scrap the bloody thing if the answer is no?

I use qmail, where - has been the extension for, well, since it was created. If you're a postfix person, you can use + or -, with recipient_delimiter.

You're less likely to bump into issues with -.

Some shops don't like their trade name in the email, so rot13 (g? in vim) solves that if your goal is to trace back the leaks. I have not found a reliable way of auto dropping mail from bad sources, sometimes companies change name which makes it hard to validate From with recipient.

As GP alluded, the potentially problematic endgame is that Google will have "learned their lesson" that they should just comply with requests, and it will look a lot like DMCA takedown requests on Youtube.

The big intrigue here is what Alice was doing that time?

I really appreciate your going into these details, but I still don't understand the "oblivious" strategy thing which supposedly improves baseline performance OOTB when the criterion is the time to first render of above-the-fold content given otherwise same conditions. You say the effect of delivering all resources concurrently is that "the most-critical resources [are delivered first], no matter where in the dependent-resource queue they started". But this isn't proven; it's just a different heuristic to apply to traffic shaping assuming small resources are needed early vs assuming dependent resources (+ HTML markup itself) are loaded asynchronously in the order the browser parses an HTML DOM (the default behaviour, and the one authors can influence directly). You're not magically increasing the bandwidth by multiplexing so something has to give.
I think you're exactly right. They won't achieve balance by levying massive fines for mistakes one way and nothing for mistakes the other way. Its the DMCA all over again: a license for anyone with a lawyer to control whats permitted.

> anger at new trans-rights encroaching on hard-fought womens’ rights

How is this a thing though?

I won't deny that confusion and fear are very real feelings people have when confronted with something that challenges their existing beliefs, regardless of what those are. We have a right to express those feelings; doing so is an important part of grappling with them and growing our understanding of the world.

However, there's a segment of those that seemingly become consumed and blinded by those feelings, then join communities whose express purpose is to stoke them further ("no, we ARE right, those who espouse the challenging ideas are WRONG and they are OUT TO GET US"), and often aren't entirely sincere with their statements that they're really not against the challenging ideas, that they just have ~* concerns *~

Giving them the furthest benefit of the doubt, they're at least confining themselves to communities that largely share their viewpoint, consist of people that don't aren't those bringing the issue to light (how many trans people do you see welcomed and able to express their side in "gender critical" communities? not many? could it be because those communities exist expressly to exclude (from all society, not simply the community itself) and deride them? gee, idunno, hard to say), and are at least populated with some people that are wholly insincere with their "just raising concerns here!" rhetoric and are aiming more to further radicalize whatever subsection of the community is more on the fence.

We would be remiss to also ignore that there's fairly clear historical, if recent evidence that allowing these sorts of communities to persist mostly serves as a means to drive people away from any acceptance of the challenging ideas and further cements them in their existing beliefs. /pol/ isn't exactly as a poster child for such communities about-facing and saying "ah, we were wrong, turns out racism IS bad". There may be outliers, but on the whole, these places are poison, and I commend the services in question for finally taking a "you know, perhaps we /should/ have some level of moderation say and tell these communities 'sorry, but you're not really a fit for the broader community we want to have here'" stance. Are there problems with the specifics of the implementation, and is the process imperfect? Sure, most things are, and it cuts both ways--but strangely, I find fewer people coming out of the woodwork in these sorts of discussions to complain about, say, deplatforming of LGBTQ content on Twitter or Youtube because advertisers are leery about their brands sitting in front of content about gender issues that differs from the norm. That happens too, but doesn't seem to trigger the same "ah! the death of free speech has arrived!" outcry that seems to pop up from the other side--those communities do still complain, but marginalization and bigotry are things they're more accustomed to and live with daily; some are sadly resigned to it.
I call straw man.
