Honda has been shipping Android powered entertainment systems with direct access to the CAN bus (which may even include vehicle control, based on geohot's work) for several years now. Just as on phones, as long as this using being used for timing critical operations like an ECU and doesn't have any sort of remote network access it doesn't seem to be a major source of issues.

As long as SQLite doesn't catastrophically break under load it's fine for production, but only as long as it has a single client; traditional database engines can deal with multiple applications connecting to them.

I'm using sqlite for a production application as well, but its load will be in the range of - at best - thousands per day. The only complexity will be that there has to be a secondary 'fallback' server; the current application just copies the whole .db file over to the secondary server after certain events.
> The thing about the EU is that every law is like that.

This is incorrect. There are Directives (which work like you described) and Regulations, which apply directly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_(European_Union)

Per Wikipedia, "As the GDPR is a regulation, not a directive, it is directly binding and applicable, but does provide flexibility for certain aspects of the regulation to be adjusted by individual member states."

For most practical purposes, the transition treaty makes it as if the UK was still part of the EU until the end of the year.

I believe many member states did also implement it in local law, since they already had privacy laws and just adjusted them to be GDPR-compatible, but the GDPR would also apply directly.

With all security measures and the problem with storing waste, nuclear is just very expensive, at least for many countries with a high population density.

Europe doesn't have that many vast uninhabited landscapes for example. That Canada can just dump it beyond the polar circle is another thing.

Uranium isn't endless. With the current rate of consumption, it would last ~80 years. Sure, there are ideas to extract it and we certainly could find more, but it should certainly be a factor to be reminded of. There are also quite rare materials needed for containment, which have similar restrictions. Some say we could extract Uranium from seawater, but that is pretty much bullshit, not only economically.

I am not for shutting down nuclear plants, but I doubt it can compete or is the future of our energy production. Maybe other reactor types may help, but I don't judge people for being anti nuclear.
LiveView is also very interesting. The main reason we went other way is that amount of connections and state held on server will be really high, plus we have some clients with bad connections and regular HTTP works much better on those than websockets.

another offence is using sigma (∑) as a stylized "E" or uppercase lambda (Λ) as "A" (see NASA logo).
I agree that causal inference certainly requires ability to interact with the environment. In do-calculus this follows basically from the definition of the "do" operator.

As other people already mentioned, the "do" operator does not need to be related to the physical human scale environment. Causal inference could be useful also in interacting with the internet or other virtual environments like games.

Additionally, even humans do not have intuitive understanding of physical reality outside of our evolutionary environment. Nobody is able to intuitively understand quantum mechanics or general theory of relativity. Our intuitions of causality can beak even in relatively mundane environment like low Earth orbit. For example, you can fire thrusters to push you towards an object and still miss that object. There are actual missions in LEO that failed do to this type of mistakes of elite test pilots employed by NASA.

Of course, you can use mathematical formalism to reason about unfamiliar environments, but no matter how much time you spend learning about multidimensional spaces you will not be able to imagine 4D space or a quantum wave. But nobody is claiming that we do not understand language like "spin of an electron" because we have never experienced what a spin of an electron is.

Now to get to my original point. My original point was that causal inference is not a basic building block of intelligence. Formalism like do-calculus or logic are too brittle to be a building block of intelligence. You need something that is robust to noise. Something that can consume a tensor of pixels and process it. Once you have a system that is able to deal with this type of inputs then you can strive to do something like do-calculus or logic on top of it. But my argument goes further. My guess is that ability to do formal reasoning will emerge from the need to carry out complex tasks. Nobody will intentionally program models to do logic or do-calculus. Ability to do it will arise in models as a combination of the necessity of solving complex tasks and clever training techniques as it did trough evolutionary process in humans.

> Sorry but I don't see how a software engineer (as me) is doing any work that is in the nature of human beings.

The simplistic answer is: you do work that is required (in some form, on some level) for "everything" or nobody would pay you to do it. You might be a few hops away from "putting food on the tables of people", but your work is somewhere in the network that supports society. Yes, there are some exceptions, some negative side-effects of the market approach, but they seem to be too small to make the whole system less effective than a carefully planned non-market system.

> The Covid crisis showed this to us (at least in Europe) : the people doing the real work are the people with the lowest incone and the lowest social protections.

That's mostly because that "real work" is usually work that you can easily train for. I still think we should pay better (and pay more people) to work e.g. in health care, but the reason why we don't is that it's easier to train a software developer to work in nursing than training a nurse to work in software development.

> So instead of giving good incomes to guys like me faking being useful to society, I'd prefer we give real incomes to useful people and let other doing "nothing" instead of having jobs with no "natural" purpose.

I know the feeling, but I don't think it's accurate or helpful. If you hate your job, find another one. Especially in software, there are plenty of jobs where you can very directly see the positive impact of your work on people.

> If we were in a society like that, I would have never chose being a software engineer, I'd rather be in the fields, growing food.

Who did more for society, the person growing food or the person developing a tractor?
My takeaway from the recent trend in articles talking about how great the Zettelkasten method is:

Document what you do, as if you were describing your work and/or learning to a stranger. That stranger is you, in 6 months to 5 years time.

Maintaining that enthusiasm and finding the time to document is difficult, but the results are very valuable because you are building a "second brain". That extra brain can be indexed, searched, tagged, analyzed, and edited using many powerful tools.

Don't waste energy chasing fancy tools and methodologies without already having a simple workflow in place. In other words, don't go all out learning Emacs+org-mode+org-roam when you already have a directory of text file notes. Once you have a good idea of what works for you, then introduce tools designed to make your life easier. (I say this as someone who uses Emacs+org-mode+org-roam every day)

Oh and read "The Checklist Manifesto" and "How to take Smart Notes".

I remember Toyota put AGL on the Camry in 2018. Guess what? It was terrible. The system froze up and crashed all the time. So they finally caved and added Car Play support. Now their cars all support Android Auto as well.

Great! Now you have AGL in your car. First thing you doing is plug in your phone for Android Auto or Car Play anyway.

What car companies should focus on is adding things like wireless Car Play and Android support. Also Car Play supports multiple independent displays, which no auto manufacturer implements either.

SQLite runs in airplanes [1]. I would say that is all that needs to be said on whether or not SQLite is production-ready :)

Actually, maybe it's more the fact that at a prominent tech company:
* zsh is the default shell on a large proportion of servers that have read-only /home, so you can't easily change to your preferred shell
* a training guide that many new developers follows states incorrectly that:

> If you are using Bash and you have the option of using ZSH, you should switch to it. ZSH has additional auto-complete and history features that Bash doesn’t have (but don't worry - those features will not be relevant to this tutorial.)

oh-my-zsh seems to be recommended by a lot of developers in this company, even though:
* the default mechanism to install is curl|sh (there is no Homebrew package) on developer machines which have privileged access to a lot of resources
* installing it via its recommended installation procedure on dev machines would violate company policies, whereas installing bash-completion wouldn't

Agreed. SIL2LinuxMP generated more questions than answers, which is very good for a start. But is is discontinued and we'll have to see if elisa takes off or just pokes around in some corners. The problem is, a safety system must be fully understood and then all changes need to be reviewed not to destroy the given guarantees any more. Given the pace of Linux development, this would be a gargantuan endeavor or you'd need to stick with an old and stripped down version that does not have any benefits over a traditional rt os.

We do exactly this within SharePoint. We have various react parts that look things up in the database - sometimes quite heavy queries for reporting.

We have put together a small collection of fairly generic react apps that mean we can put one on a page, put in some config and have it displaying a report generated in SQL in about as long as it takes to write the SQL for the report. We have used this approach for generic SQL reports, SharePoint lists, imgage retrival and entry forms. Having the library of options to hand has meant we can confidently assemble a new (fairly complex) page much quicker than previously - and be confident that it will work as it is reusing known good components.
Maybe the boosters of "towers in a park" should have taken a page from the legend of Parmentier, and made them exclusive things one couldn't get an apartment in without knowing someone who knew someone, or at least paying a massive "finder's fee" to some agency?

(Parmentier lived at a time before the pommes frites, when only pigs, prisoners, and people in poor faraway countries ate potatoes. The story goes that he set up a fancy potato field, complete with armed guards, but because they weren't guarded at night, the same people who earlier wouldn't dare eat a potato came to steal them under cover of darkness to grow themselves.)

I get that but I still don't understand why you need it. Actually now I'm noticing that _none_ of the replies answer my question - _why_ do you need it ?

1. If I don't notice my phone ringing it's because I don't want to notice it ringing. If I'm waiting for a phone call I will check my phone often or not use headphones.

2. Is being aware of where your phone is and typing off the code from it really so challenging for you ? I don't know about you but I spend maybe 1-2 minutes per day on punching in 2FA codes and most of the time I don't even realize I'm doing it.

3. DM link to yourself on twitter or any other platform. There is also sync for chrome so you can sync stuff as you want, but to be honest whenever I am reading something on the bus the link is still where I found it when I get home. Somebody sent it to me ? Open messages on computer. Found it after searching google ? Make the same search on PC.

4. I don't understand what is complicated about this. I swipe down on my phone and press icon for hotspot. My computer connects.

It's really interesting that Apple users speak about how everything is so smooth yet they don't want to "fumble around with the phone", seems like an oxymoron for me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_guarantee is closer to what was mentioned here, I believe. Essentially, it's just saying "we don't want people to sit around and get used to it and we also have things that need to get done but aren't crucial to survival, so we can do them when we have lots of people who aren't needed elsewhere, and we can stop doing them when we don't".
Read my comment again but read the entire thing this time ;)
These are fair points, and you are very likely correct about the ratio of success to failure. Survival bias is strong on HN.

I would add though that "shipping it" greatly increases your odds of success, and choosing a simple stack that lets you ship an idea quickly is a good thing.

I feel like his choice of a super basic tech stack likely contributed to Pieter's success in some way.
If I have a simple Flask or Django app, backed by sqlite, how do I make sure I only have one client? If I use a prerolled Apache or Nginx frontend (which may or may not be set up with multiple threads or whatever), and have very very low traffic, how do I make sure I'm not corrupting it with multiple writes?

You can have several clients. If you do not have long-live write transactions, performance will be fine.
Yeah that is what it boils down to often; the user doesn't care. It's more about what's best for the developer.

The problem is that a lot of developers want to work with what is 'sexy' at the moment. That's one factor that also drives e.g. job adverts; most vacancies I've seen will have "cryptocurrency" and "IoT" sprinkled in, just for the sake of looking attractive.

And old applications get rewritten in newer tech because of a combination of technical debt and developers going "I did not write this so I cannot read it and do not want to work with it".

Granted, newer programming languages (or versions thereof) often have better developer ergonomics (I spent my morning trying to get a C codebase to work while with my new Go codebase it should be a matter of installing the Go tools and doing 'go build').

Another factor is the perception of productivity; rebuilding software greenfield will feel super productive for at least the first six months to a year, after which things become more of a slog as the backlog fills with bug reports and change requests, instead of new features.

Source: I've seen this happen a number of times.

Disclaimer: I'm in a rebuild project myself now, the old codebase is nearly 200K of very poorly written PHP / JS, and the Decision was made to rewrite it from scratch. I'm going with Go and React at the moment; Go because it's unsurprising and boring code that should be fine for the next decade, and React because it's a de facto standard now and should be fine for the next 3-5 years as well. Both tools were decided on in part for future developers that will work alongside or to replace me.

But I'm sure in a few years my opinion on what is the best tech stack may change, idk.
