Someday, all cars from a particular brand will be made to crash during rush hour. The carnage will be immense. Emergency services will have to go off-road to bypass the snarl. There won't be enough helicopters to meet the demand.

The brand that could cause the most damage is probably Bosch, a major automotive component manufacturer.
Pretty much the same sentiment in regards to Epic - on PC it's yet another store to install & there have been some weird practices in making games exclusive, etc.

But in their attacks on Walled Garden - 100% behind them for that.
That video where a terrorist group successfully stole a military weapon shown to be at or above the level of importance of a Predator drone...

Then decided to kill a specific person instead of just bombing the entire building where they apparently knew that person would be

I never bought into the premise that it should be more scary than if a terrorist group was to steal a sophisticated military strike weapon today.

We have drones carrying missiles that can kill a person in the passenger seat of a car without killing the driver by deploying swords after launch, I think we leapfrogged DJI drones with facial recognition and grenades in terms of brutality
I work as a software engineer mostly backend/middle tier APIs and stuff for a Fortune 500 company now.

I’d remind myself that things like alcohol that act strongly on dopamine can cause SERIOUS problems with adderall, like not feeling any happiness for a week and fun things like that. Adderall is a serious tool to be taken seriously. I joke that Adderall is like a chainsaw. If you’re using it at 3am, there’s a problem. I’d also tell myself that the Adderall isn’t what made me lose weight, and wasn’t the main thrust of me being able to learn. Losing 75 pounds and moving from obese to a healthy weight HUGELY boosted my brain power and concentration power. I was also constantly reacting to food. Had to sort that out.

Adderall let me sort of ignore it for a long time but the underlying condition just got worse. Was put on Nexium for horrible GERD at night at 34, was trembling and all sorts of scary side effects. A ketogenic diet with moderate exercise of walking once or twice a day makes a huge difference. Also magnesium is a like a miracle for my anxiety.

I’d tell me from before I was even in tech at all to just stop wasting my time failing at school and just get a tech job. Although I don’t know if I could have done it without my wife, honestly. I was really good at lying to myself and she put a stop to that shit, excuse my language. I should have tried.

I’d also maybe be less arrogant after getting a good job. I lost a lot of friends who were in a similar slacker boat as me a few years ago. It’s like they stopped wanting to hang out once I became successful which was very isolating.
Just for the sake of pedantry, I should point out that California was ok with them fucking themselves, just not each other.
The trick is to say no, and then yes, then when it fails anyway, you can say I told you so.

Back in the day IE always had an 'advantage' purely by the name: 'Internet Explorer'.

When people 'got a computer' to 'get on the internet', seeing that icon on the desktop got them where the thought they needed to be.

Very, very few people, even years after after Chrome and Firefox came out, even knew they had a choice over the (browser) matter of getting 'on the web'. (There are some classic videos out there of voxpops of people being asked about 'the web' and 'the internet' etc.)

(To begin with, for me, it was Spry Mosaic then Netscape from about '93.)
You don't need specialist knowledge to figure out that the bigger stuff is harder to replace than the smaller stuff.
Arghh such mixed emotions... I want to read, but not on Daily Mail. Maybe there is a browser extension/userscript/css that makes daily mail palatable.
It is, but some interviewers can be intentionally vague.

Having a fleet of cars you can manage with a single ansible script isn’t the norm for $400B companies?

In general Amazon, with the exception of AWS, isn't really a tech company. It's a retailer/logistics company which made a critical bet in automating it's operations.

Even it's Kindle operations is just value-added for their retail branch.

In that sense Amazon is not a tech company like Microsoft or Google or Facebook. Amazon's business, with the exception of AWS, consists of selling goods and services through an online catalogue. You see a product, click click and it's delivered to your door step it a couple of days. Controlling the entire logistics network that delivers products from the factory to the door step of any regular Joe is a line of business that doesn't depend on tech excellence.
Most browsing still happens on desktop and without the equivalent HTML5 standards there would be no replacing Flash. Last I checked Apple really isn’t a big web standards pusher or implementer. I guess people just have to romanticize everything Apple. Sure it was a factor but Apple hardly was the only factor.

From the Wikipedia:

> "From the point of view of the friend, the measurement result was determined long before Wigner had asked about it, and the state of the physical system has already collapsed. When now exactly did the collapse occur? Was it when the friend had finished their measurement, or when the information of its result entered Wigner's consciousness?"

This to me, shows just how hand-wavy the whole superposition/quantum collapse stuff really is. I have to say I side with Einstein with his view that everything is already in one state or the other. We don't cause the system to choose a state when we measure it. We simply discover the state it was already in. It is one thing to assign a probability to which state we will find it in. It is quite another to create an entire theory around quantum measurement.

There is nothing mysterious about this paradox. The friend performs the measurement ans discovers the state of the particle/system. Wiger doesn't know about it, but that doesn't mean it's not in that state, he just isn't aware of it yet. The fact this is a paradox just seems like silly mind games.
It could also be that our universe takes up so little resources on "gods" computer ;)
When my kid started playing Minecraft, he told a lot of funny stories about the chat and joking about how people asking for personal details were pedophiles.

Ten years old kids are not stupid.
A belief is not a very compelling argument. Frankly, in the context of a job market I see both as interference.

But whatever our beliefs, we already have sets of rules, legal and social, which limit people's choices in the job market. The ability to hire people is a privilege which comes with responsibilities, part of which is a responsibility to society. This is why developed countries have minimum wages.

Now as to what extent or whether at all, you can place limitations on employers without placing limitations on employees, now that is an argument worth exploring.
If you had infinite memory and energy such optimizations wouldn't be needed to begin with.

Here it is, folks. Peak HN.
I've done extremely well obtaining goods and services by operating under my unpopular perceptions of the world, including how banks make money and the purpose of money and currency. My unpopular perceptions have consensus with the people that matter (banks, lawyers, accountants, regulators, courts) but they just won't get very far on web forums if you try to tell people something that doesn't match their understanding.

The primary cognitive dissonance with other people comes from tying morality to prosperity. Or put simply "some people deserve money and when that criteria is not satisfied it is controversial", but what they really mean is that "someone should have the ability to have goods and services more than others", with the money itself only being a reductive surrogate to make that happen.

The further you abstract yourself away from that, the easier it becomes to operate and see opportunities, or how to exchange time for more food and shelter in a more efficient way. How to have enough resources that the money itself looses additional utility, no different than how an abundance of oxygen looses its utility while a known upcoming absence of oxygen will redirect all of your thoughts and resources into making sure that doesn't happen.

Yes, it should not be a mystery how banks can create money.
If these groups effectively control territory, then maybe formalizing that control rather than trying to fight against it makes sense. That way, instead of a cartel trying to infiltrate and bribe the local law enforcement, the law enforcement could be paid a competitive and transparent monthly fee in return for helping to protect the cartel's territory. (This would mean arresting competing cartel members caught there, and giving immunity to members of the locally approved cartel who are caught in shoot-outs with their rivals).
> The main argument presented here is that banks do not have central bank-like special powers in relation to money creation; the process in which banks create money is entirely pedestrian.

I think this is wrong in a subtle way. Regular banks have a reserve requirement that limits their ability to create money. They must hold a certain number of federal reserve notes to meet the reserve requirement. The Federal Reserve can create federal reserve notes.
> So you're expecting 70x more people to die from the vaccine than from the virus itself.

I have no idea where this number comes from?

Do you think I said the vaccine will kill 1% of the population?

But then do you believe the virus will kill 1%/70? Which is .01% of the population? That's a order of magnitude less worse than the flu. That's probably like a common cold death rate.

The vaccine won't save 1%.

It's just a way of attacking something that's on track to kill 1% of the population. That's not a hard 1%, I think it's .4% but the new data this month is coming back with .9% and I'm also combining economic deaths.

But certainly I think the risk/reward for the coronavirus vaccine is more than what Elon is doing.

Assuming everything is an ad is absurd; and resigning yourself to pessimism won't lead to better outcomes.

It's important to know the incentives involved in the creation of a piece of information.
An example of heavy sarcasm. It would be worth your while to study it carefully to learn the style points.
10k miles on Autopilot over here. Made me go from hating driving to loving it. I’ve been seeing just as much hate for Neuralink as Tesla had early on, which has me excited. Let the public put pressure on them, then when they come out with something even a little impressive, it’ll blow everyone’s minds.

Unfortunately with the way things are, outside of public research, the only way to fund a project of this nature is with large amounts of hype.
> it's where they moved the address bar to the bottom

Yup, that's Fenix. By the way, you can switch it back to the top, but the (+) button (new tab) still remains at the bottom, which irks me.

I actually just tried and I'm not seeing your issue - but I have different issues (mainly that when I open the browser, the topmost tab can never seem to figure out whether it has a page loaded or it's on the new tab page).

By the way, I'm just a fellow user, so don't spend too much effort describing your bug to me, haha. It might be worth reporting it to their bug tracker, though: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues

If your device happens to be a Samsung phone, it should come with a screen recorder (at least on the newest major version of Android)
Can y'all add "in 2017" to the title here?
Okay. Then building energy producing resources themselves just like the state and respected corporate structures did. Maybe they could even employ people and build a surrounding town.

> But that's exactly what amp is. An opt-in set of standards for creating fast-loading, cach-able pages

Not exactly. For one, you could introduce opt in for Google to cache your page through a meta tag. No need for entirely new markup and tools. I have no problem with amp as a concept but the implementation leaves me sour. Amp specification has been growing in complexity that I don't notice speed differences on many sites anymore.

They also inject their own js which I don't find amusing.

Many sites are abusing amp to rank on Google. Reddit, pinterest, etc. It's a terrible experience as a user. They also didn't fix url and domain problem until recently. It's a usability problem.

I can't search for the specific tab by the domain name of the site on my browser. They default opt-in to downloading content in the background for amp feed on chrome android. There are many little annoyances like this one that make me dislike amp.

Plus, amp isn't heuristic based. If my network speed is fast enough, I don't need the stripped out page.

> As a non-Christian observer, Christianity does seem to be the only religion that it is acceptable to mock, deride, and make a scapegoat of.

Christianity is the largest religious group in the world, which dominates free and open societies that enjoy freedom of speech without fear of repercussion. The places where Christianity gets mocked and ridiculed are the same places where heads of state and leading politicians are freely mocked and ridiculed.

That does not mean Christians are oppressed. It just means that their societies are tolerant, like... Well, like exactly what the religion defends.

Just because we, in western countries, feel free to make jokes about religious groups that doesn't mean they are being oppressed.
As I understood it, they're not bemoaning BLM twitter, but the (supposed) double standard.
Wouldn't the justification be that it is their platform and they are not required to permit free speech?
For a language which seems to have been intended initially for writing maintainable network services the absence of a means to set timeouts or cancel requests in the original network apis was clearly an oversight. I like what they have proposed with generics and other recent changes and I would like to see a fresh look at this problem.

Context is working as intended here as it returns a copy which is well documented. Cancellation and timeouts are useful but WithValue seems like a nasty hack to me. I think it should be avoided and possibly deprecated.
Are you suggesting that these people would argue that its not wrong if you pointed at it and asked?
Does it matter? Next time it might not be a good guy.
> What do you think are today's major roadblocks to dust-scale computing?

Feather dusters and vacuum cleaners.

More seriously: this is the type of technology that likely has few applications on it's own, but will probably find its way into something bigger.
> Nuclear is the only way to keep our current level of society.

This is just wrong.

> Our solar plants are going to lead to massive poisoned landfills due to their heavy metals. They are hard to recycle and so many are just dumping them.

They aren't particularly hard to recycle - it's just that there hasn't been significant demand until now (15 year life cycles..).

But plants are opening now, and the economics are quite good (because the heavy metals are quite valuable): https://www.livingcircular.veolia.com/en/industry/first-recy...
Honestly having to pay to buy the game and then pay a separate creator to teach me how to play the game feels a bit silly.

I personally played FS2020 and gave up after completing the tutorials because I didn't know what I was doing still. I feel like I could enjoy the game a lot, but a good tutorial makes or breaks a game for me. If I have to do a lot of work outside of a game just to enjoy the game it seems pointless to me.
These numbers are quite meaningless without the counterfactuals how many deaths were there by comparison?

I don't doubt your point, just looking for magnitude here.
This is exactly where I am right now and I’m starting to explore my options for jumping to Linux for desktop and laptop. There are some great distros out there that I’m looking forward to trying.
Indeed.

In TFA 'fission' is only used once, and that's as the author quotes from a statement made in 1972:

" ... the party said it supported “greater research and development” into “unconventional energy sources” including solar, geothermal, and “a variety of nuclear power possibilities to design clean breeder fission and fusion techniques.” "

The continued muddling of fission and fusion is regrettable, as the former's increasingly looking unpalatable, and the latter's gaining more credibility & interest. Plenty of people would be for one but not the other.
Not the OP, but the precedents are here: Always-connected cars (eg. teslas): check. Being able to take control of a car via the CAN bus[1]: check. The only thing missing in the exploit chain is something that allows the attacker to jump from the modem/infotainment system to the CAN bus or ecu.

Still on 10.10 (due to SIP). Does this depend on a lot of newer system APIs?
Just keep them off reddit 50/50. Kids don't know their limits to being exposed to images of violence. It's no immediately obvious that consuming those kind of images can have long term effects. Kids don't know how to contextualize sexualised representations. It' not immediately obvious that those images are produced to show things in a certain way to fit into a certain market, and don't represent life as it really is. I agree that it's impossible to try and just shield them from everything, it's better to give them the tools to process it themselves. But with the internet being weaponized by anti-social zealots trying to bring on ww3, who purposefully publish in channels used by young people... I wonder what is the value of letting young people lose in all of it..
The descriptions in the article sound like every early stage startup that has ever existed (except the monkeys part).
> Essentially zero SAAS third-party resources are set up to be included with SRI

Right, but jQuery often is, which lets you sell people on the feature by saying it's for jQuery. The whitelist is just in case people forgot the SRI on their jQuery, and hey, why not throw a couple other trustworthy scripts on there while we're at it?

> AMP doesn't contain anti-adblocking, and an anti-adblocking-via-inscrutable-js approach would be incompatible with AMP's policy of requiring that all AMP code, including extensions, be open source.

Again, "Google currently has internal policies forbidding it" isn't a good argument that Google won't do something, especially when they are working on setting up systems that give them the ability to do that thing. Google used to have a policy saying that ads could never go in the same column as search results, but ad revenue turned out to be important to Google, so they changed that policy.

(In AMP's specific case, you might not even need inscrutable JS since pages are served from google.com and thus already include the tracking cookies. Just swap in the personalized ads server-side.)
You might've. It's a format-time option and has been for as long as I've used OS X.
Seems metal razor were invented at least 2000 years prior the Roman Empire. "Around 3000 BC when copper tools were developed, copper razors were invented. The idea of an aesthetic approach to personal hygiene may have begun at this time, though Egyptian priests may have practiced something similar to this earlier. Alexander the Great strongly promoted shaving during his reign in the 4th century BC because he believed it looked tidier." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaving#History
Publicly traded? How does that work for illegal operations? And as far as I'm aware crypto currencies really aren't profitable anymore, ignoring needing an internet connection, leading to tracing the transactions back to this hijacked dam.
When we want to believe something we ask ourselves, "Can I believe it?" and the answer is almost always, "Yes".

When we don't want to believe something we ask ourselves, "Must I believe it?", and the answer is almost always, "No".
Reserve requirements haven't mattered in US banks for a long time. One way to think about it is that reserve requirements constrain bank behavior, but the optimal strategy for banks would be the same regardless of whether that requirement were removed.

The requirement was removed in the US in March 2020 but has been a formality for most banks for a long time.

You are right by saying they may. Making that happen is still pretty hard.
IIRC the reactor itself produces very high voltage power so it can't be used without a transformer that's not on power plant.

Diesel generators should be proper solution but it's sunk on tsunami due to its location.
