That's not anywhere close to the author's core argument. I'll let the author speak for themselves:

'They also are both good examples of a kind of fake social science, whereby you simply make unsubstantiated observations about human beings that confirm things people already believe, and the reader’s pre-existing feelings (their pre-judgments or “prejudices” if you will) are doing the work that evidence should be doing. I would argue that this kind of writing is extremely common and that we need to watch out for it because, if we share the prejudices of the author, we will end up believing things that may be totally untrue, and we will think we have read a good argument when we have in fact just been told that we were right all along.'

Robinson does note that the respective authors' fame, in some ways, insulates them from realizing the vacuousness of their prose:

'Incredibly, Graham says that he had nine people review and give comments on his essay before he published it, including Yale sociologist Nicholas Christakis. Apparently not one of those people asked Graham “What the hell are you talking about? What is this referring to? Could you please buttress this with some examples?”'

But the vast majority of the articles is dedicated to explaining why the essays are poorly-argued and poorly-sourced, without appeals to the authors' notoriety.

When I lived in Canada we had to turn on the honk mode because there were too many people using devices that block remote vehicle locking. The honk is an obvious indicator that the car did, indeed, lock.
I agree. Also, the Nord is out tomorrow, whereas after waiting months for the 4a to be officially released, all that happened today was I have been put on a waitlist, to wait some unknown amount of time to then pre-order the phone.
I ignored everything else because I've learned on HN to not bother going forward unless people agree on numbers. Its useless and we will just talk past each other. Frankly, just as useless as when people add snarky PS and put other's on notice.

Once again, we get to grace ourselves with another Technology Connections video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1lZ9n2bxWA
Maximum permissible wattage in USA headlights used to be 55 watts each (and probably still is). I don’t think there was ever a limit defined in lumens, so now we get LED lights with crazy brightness since they still use under 55 watts.
iOS, which is the macOS/OS X userland and kernel with different higher level development APIs and a few things toggled, has been ported and running on ARM for at least 5 years before 2012... (more if we include the iPhone development period).
Rust is quite explicit about allocations and reallocations. This makes the language slightly harder to use and increases it's verbosity, but on the plus side the behavior of the code is always predictable and the compiler will catch uses that in another language but be accepted and suggests the correct incantation. Rust won't choose between static or dynamic dispatch for you, the code you wrote does.

I think this is the right approach for a performant language and a good compromise in usability. The only thing missing would be to have lints letting you know when using other constructs would be a better trade-off, like switching from dynamic dispatch to static dispatch when there's only one possible caller.
I think if you asked the other drivers they might say that you having adaptive lights is a must have.

Yea TikTok being mentioned was just clickbait/political because it was a Chinese app.
The worst thing to happen to America was Autozone and Fast and Furious. Cheap aftermarket modifications to your car being sold to people with no knowledge of what they were doing but wanted it too look cool cause they saw it in the movie. Its led to years of teenagers with no training putting things on their cars that turn them into obnoxious spectacles on the road.

I know I sound like an old coot but frankly I'm glad my dad showed me how to install/aim headlights and along with explaining the benefits of a working unmodified exhaust system and how it should sound.
I wasn't clear... it was indeed unlimited original quality photos.
The Only Missile-Toting Ekranoplan Russia Ever Built Just Took Its Last Trip
I've seen this guy's videos before, and I'd imagine they'd have a fair bit of appeal to HN users who are familiar with Roller Coaster Tycoon. He manages to really get into the details are determine why things work they way they do.

If you are nostalgic for RCT2, I'd suggest trying Parkitect on Steam. It feels like an updated version of RCT2. It sorta lets you play the game with rose tinted glasses on.

There are a few things I think it does better:

* A lot of modernization stuff: better OS support, keyboard layout support, clamping of input for multi-monitor users, steam workshop support, fewer obvious pathfinding issues, removing a few abusable strategies, etc.

* The hauler system. Shops no longer conjure product from the ether. A new worker type, haulers, have to deliver it to the back of the store.

* Janitors need to drop off garbage in trash chutes.

* Guests don't like seeing park infrastructure (eg haulers, employee paths, break rooms). It's not hard to hide this, if you don't feel like putting effort in.

* An option to copy a decoration item under the cursor. It is nice if you want to design a new building to match an existing on.

* Live previews of how your ride will work as you are building it.
If you can make sure something else won't emit watts (other cores, something using AVX) then yeah turbo can work.

You can patch the kernel thread creation to not use specific CPUs... IDK of anyone publically maintaining a patchset, but look at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/kernel/kthread... line 386.

We've only been using SCHED_FIFO on Linux, which is basically busywaiting if you only have one thread scheduled. Though I am interested in trying the SCHED_DEADLINE.

I hope someone adds a kcompact processor mask / process state disabling compaction.
This is great. I feel like I'm seeing more and more things modeled in LEGO, and it makes me happy that the community is cross-generational and growing.

On a side note, he picked some of my personal favorites from my childhood in the 90s. The 1x2 tile QWERTY keyboard also found its way into more than it's fair share of things I made.
the 350 isn't factoring in the costs of calls/data etc.

it depends on how long you want to keep the phone for. I bought my phone in 2017 ago for £400 and I pay £8 a month to a carrier to get an allowance of data + calls every month (not a contract, I'm free to cancel any time) so it's worked out at about £18 a month if you amortise the initial outlay.

obviously contracts are more expensive, and can sometimes, albeit rarely, be cheaper, you just need to do the maths.

the bigger advantage to buying a phone outright is you're free to switch network/carrier as the phones are unlocked, at least in the UK anyway.
what does jailing someone achieve here? what is with this gross authoritarianism? most of these people using these bright LEDs dont realize how bright it is for the other drivers - it's probably just to make the roads brighter because driving in America is extremely different than the rest of the world (very very rural highways - with essentially no extra lighting)
That's what I named my first maze ride in every park!
> The fact that one-third of a very small percentage are newly failing is significant.

Completely reasonable. But how significant?

Is 1/3 50% more than usual?

Is it 3x as many as usual?

Is it an order of magnitude more?
Very excited to see 1build posting here! I joined the team a few months ago as a full-stack engineer. My time with 1build has been focused on developing the first version of our platform. I've been blown away by the passion and execution of our whole team; I can say with confidence that 1build is going places. One of those places is McDonald's, home of the McRib.
We're not at that point yet.
Another important consideration is library development. As someone developing a large library, when we were previously developing in C++ we would encounter large barriers where some design goal we had either couldn't be done in the language in a practical sense or would require hours of tweaking things like template constraints to work correctly. Our users also had such a hard time extending our library's features they usually gave up and just waited for us to add features for them.

Now that we're developing in Julia we can realize our designs as we envisioned them with very little code. Features like multiple dispatch have been a lifesaver for us. And we are getting performance that is quite close to C++. Now we're looking forward to using features like composable multithreading.

One could wonder "why not use python?" but for performance reasons one ends up with the 'two-language problem' which we wanted to avoid.
Why would you expect a country under international sanction to make their data easily available to some random Westerners? Maybe with researchers but I really don't see how it would benefit Iran to spend resources on a website accessible by Joe Shmoe in England.

They both worked closely with ARM to shape it:

"In the late 1980s, Apple Computer and VLSI Technology started working with Acorn on newer versions of the Arm core. In 1990, Acorn spun off the design team into a new company named Advanced RISC Machines Ltd.,[30][31][32] which became Arm Ltd when its parent company, Arm Holdings plc, floated on the London Stock Exchange and NASDAQ in 1998.[33] The new Apple-Arm work would eventually evolve into the Arm6, first released in early 1992. Apple used the Arm6-based Arm610 as the basis for their Apple Newton PDA".

And for over a decade they have been investing in ARM (for iOS uses), and later inventing and designing their own ARM CPUs, so there's that. Plus lots of work on LLVM for ARM.
Short version: Roller Coaster Tycoon has a random walk type maze solver, and you can create a maze which takes O(2^N) time to solve.
I don't get why Google creates problems for themselves by relying on unproven tech or working backwards. Case in point: adaptive battery. Androids have historically had poor battery efficiency (mah vs. screen on time) against iPhones. Rather than optimize the OS and the apps and provide a larger capacity battery, they size down the battery and introduce software-based battery management with AI. Common responses to complaints on /r/GooglePixel about piss poor battery life are that the user hasn't waiting long enough for the system to develop a proper AI/ML model.

Another example: RCS. A protocol that neither carriers nor users actually want. 7 years after iMessage took over the US, Google is still unable to provide a functional E2E encrypted multi-device messaging service with all the doo-dads that come with iMessage.

So many more textbook examples out there.

The original comment was comparing cash savings in situation where the couple lives together but is not married vs. when they marry. It specifically mentioned the possibility of breakup before marriage, but people divorce all the time and if you get into that situation you'll need those savings.
If you liked this article, I highly recommend the book 'Make it So', it's a review of the UX and UI of the interfaces in popular science fiction tv shows and movies.
Thanks for the nice thoughts. I'm a huge fan of all of the interfaces you describe from industrial and commercial applications. I've written previously about my concerns with the touchscreen dominance and the poor UX impact it can have. My day job is to design physical interfaces for all manner of automotive and consumer applications and you could say I specialise in the non-touchscreen design parts.

Regarding the LEGO references, this was just a light hearted look at the problem from a different perspective :).
How do you get access to GPT-3? I applied to the beta with a world-changing idea and didn't even get a reply.
I challenge you on the assertion that this trend of illegal lighting is many times worse than obnoxiously loud exhaust.

Life safety is certainly a bigger factor with the headlights, but all other aspects are orders of magnitude more disruptive on the acoustic side. Having bright-as-sun headlights driving around town at 3am is not going to cause a lot of trouble for most residents (as they would be indoors sleeping peacefully). On the other hand, someone driving around at 3am in a turbo diesel truck with muffler delete may be able to single-handedly rouse your entire town from its slumber.

Which one of these actors has the most adverse net impact on society?
As far as I remember that didn't happen in all countries. I remember seeing them when going on vacation to France (Corsica) in the mid 80s, but never at home.
Also: suggestions where they clearly didn't read your complaint.
I'm not sure what I was thinking there. I meant to say my email is in my profile.

I'd be interested in more context on that.
This is a great example of what Tyler Cowen referred to as the Libertarian Vice:

https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2006/08/th...

Regulation is not intrinsically good or bad any more than, say, law or any other social convention. If you want to contribute to the conversation you need to discuss the different factors which make a particular example better or worse than alternatives — for example, you could start by asking whether the reason why this innovation from Europe is not available in the U.S. is because Europe does not have regulation or because the quality of that regulation is different.
Would you mind being specific? Are you making a claim about the author in general, or this particular essay? What is an example of a claim in the essay that you think is vapid?

All this is exactly why I've never paid for a security system. I have some cameras in the house but that's more to monitor the kids when we (parents) are out of the house.
I'm writing this from the OS's perspective. Linux abstracts this away, but we have to do it to get the same abstraction. You can see under the user space portion how simple it is to grab a framebuffer, which is then mapped into user space. Then we have full access to RGBA values.
I've also recently started trying to do this: to try to have my conscious mind be in charge of observing/understanding only. It works, but it kind of scares me.

It scares me because it feels similar to the mindset I have when watching a movie. What if I become more interested in the plot than the well-being of the main character?
The nostalgia this post hinges on is amazing. I remember every one of the example pieces they show here. And what's amazing is many of them you'll find showing up in LEGO sets today. It's pretty rare LEGO makes single-use pieces, even really obscure pieces end up showing up randomly elsewhere.

Bi-xenon lights are mostly reserved for luxury cars in the US.

And despite the MSRP, many trucks don't have them (not without buying the fanciest trim level).
Too annoying to look at the car for the 2 seconds it takes to see the indicators flash, which seems to be the common alternative?
I concluded a long time ago that most of the response to Coronavirus boils down to "security theater".

There is a subset of the population that wants to be told that whoever is in charge is "doing something."

Compliance with that "something" never seems high on the list. Honestly, some people seem to like that as it gives them something extra to gripe about.

Northvolt (https://northvolt.com/career?d=Software+%26+IT) | Stockholm | Full Time

We are building the world's greenest battery, and we're building tons of them. We aim to be producing 150 GWh of batteries into the market annually in 10 years.

Digitalization is a key part of reaching this goal. We are doing traceability data collection in an order of magnitude higher degree than what is common even for modern industrial projects. We are building connected battery systems for our customers to collect usage data from the field, on top of which we're creating predictive maintenance models, smart diagnostics tooling and feeding data into machine learning models to optimize future production.

I am a hiring manager in the frontend team, and we're always looking for talented and creative people with solid react or react native experience and maybe a dash of adventure since you're probably not reading this from Sweden (we have 60+ nationalities at Northvolt so you're likely to have at least one future colleague from where you live!) and, as me, you might not have much experience in what it entails to build a highly modern factory on a modern tech stack. It's honestly an amazing experience and we have a lot more to do ahead of us!

We're also looking for a whole lot of other software developers as well, here are a few examples:

- Battery Management System (BMS) engineer | Embedded C
- Data Scientist | Python, data driven modelling, data viz, etc.
- Software Engineer, Robotics
- Software Engineer, Go

When you are literally blinded by somebody's headlights making you momentarily blind, you are a danger to yourself and others and could kill yourself and / or others which is not even your fault to begin with! Jail time doesn't sound too insane then. I've literally had to close my eyes whilst driving due to someone's ridiculous headlights being super bright on the opposite side of the road.
I'm not even sure what Linus was referring to when he talked about memory allocations in C++ being hidden. Aren't the only options either an malloc (kmalloc) call or a `new` operator call?

Actually, is wireless charger worth it? You still have to keep the phone on the charging pad, which is similar to keeping the phone connected to a charger cable. Next, I can easily hold and continue using the device when it is connected to the USB cable. But you can't do that when placed on a wireless charging pad, right?

I will never call it "truly wireless charging" until it is a technology that charges my phone "wirelessly" many meters away from the wall socket, regardless I am using the phone in my bed or bathroom. The current method of "wireless charging" is not truly wireless, IMO.
