The original argument was all open source projects were ethically immoral. I didn't say all weapons were evil.

It is a matter of degree which becomes a matter of kind. There is a difference between a bow and an arrow, a semi automatic and the atom bomb.

This is something I keep pondering over, for all the brilliant minds involved in the Manhattan project, did they ever think about the effects of what they created.
However they do use a cross-platform gui toolkit that has built-in printing support (Qt QPrinter) so i do find this a little surprising -

I searched for any more information in the issue tracker. The closest I could find was https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378769 , which might be a concern but not really for desktop printing.
I was refering to Google's reliance on online advertising. The media unlike Google does have something to sell: journalism. The media relies in part on advertising, but not greater than 90%, as Google does. I never mentioned the concept of value or the media's dirty tactics. I am refering to operating as a middleman and having a nearly 100% dependence on advertising. As far as I know, those are facts.

I agree that my understanding of that mindset is limited to the rationality I can make of it, but I wouldn't consider that a threat. It's the reality that we exist within, as this virus only really "cares" about replicating itself.

I personally don't comprehend how someone can extrapolate receiving a vaccination to a loss of freedom, but I'm fortunate that I don't really have to.

Best of luck and safety to you and your family. I look forward to the day that we get to begin returning to some semblance of normalcy. Hopefully it's sooner rather than later.
Tons of these are already outdated. Others are future looking statements that have not yet been disproved.

If that is the best you can do for THE LAST 10 years its actually embracing.
> And while I haven't decided yet whether I'm going to get the vaccine, one thing that will make me much more likely to fall into the "refuse" camp is if they decide to impose some kind of restrictions on basic freedoms and make travel or attending concerts contingent on getting a vaccine.

Ding ding ding, I’m already refusing in solidarity with anyone else who wants to refuse for whatever crackpot reason they like. The system pushing the vaccine is far too corrupt, and the bullying is already far too aggressive, to justify any other position. But it is still a tough decision, because the expected risk of war and fascism is pretty fucking hard to calculate.

By the way in a vacuum I like both MRNA vaccines and nuclear fission, despite the risks.

Have you considered relocating them to New Zealand? No COVID, no masks, no need for a vaccine. I’m not sure about government overreach in other parts of life though.
Especially if it's a white-collar crime like the one described. Then you just know it comes from a place of inherent dishonesty.

I'd rather hire the guy who got locked up for some raging violence in his younger years and has since mellowed with age, as one does, than some financial crook who will try some dishonest sneakery to fuck me over at the first available opportunity.
AB71: $2.4B Tax Hike to Create a ‘Statewide Homelessness Solutions Program
If you believe you are a better than average driver when manually driving, why couldn't you also be better than average at intervening when autopilot is driving?

Humans don't have forward facing radar nor 360 degree always active vision, so in some cases, cars can see hazards that even a perfect human driver cannot.
FYI for anyone on OS X Catalina (and likely Big Sur): this doesn't seem to work, as it's not detecting AVFoundation support in ffmpeg. See this issue: https://github.com/cytopia/ffscreencast/issues/31
It looks pretty much the some, except that you assume the input is already in your library's canonical encoding (probably utf-8 nowadays).

I realize this sounds like a total cop-out, but when the use-case is destructively best-effort tokenizing an input string using library functions, it doesn't really matter whether your internal encoding is utf-32 or utf-8. I mean, under the hood, normalize still has to map arbitrary-length sequences to arbitrary-length sequences even when working with utf-32 (see: unicodedata.normalize("NFKC", "a\u0301 ﬃ") == "\xe1 ffi").

So on the happy path, you don't see much of a difference.

The main observable difference is that if you take input without decoding it explicitly, then the always-decode approach has already crashed long before reaching this function, while the assume-the-encoding approach probably spouts gibberish at this point. And sure, there are plenty of plausible scenarios where you'd rather get the crash than subtly broken behaviour. But ... I don't see this reasonably being one of them, considering that you're apparently okay with discarding all \W+.
This is not equivalent since it is reliant on the existence of the FSM, which is not usually taken to be proven, unlike (hopefully) the existence of other people.
It's fair to question the motivations of the FSD beta testers. They were obviously hand picked to ensure maximum safety, adequate public profile, having committed large sums of money to prove their allegiance, as well as being existing fans of the company. So they're likely to be biased.

But that's a long way from alleging that they've doctored their videos, or that Tesla itself has censored them. There are many many instances of footage showing almost crashes that were only avoided because the driver intervened. If you were the censor, would you allow those?

Compare that to Waymo or Cruise or anyone else. They are obviously heavily censoring and have no independent owners recording footage, nor sharing it like this. It's a huge step up in much needed transparency.
This is correct, there is a magic percentage number on what the tipping point for such migration/adoption numbers is - its I believe pretty low, like 7% or so if I remember right.
> Given that Tesla are the only company to have put something approaching autonomy into the hands of customers, that does seem to be the case.

Well, that’s Waymo (in Phoenix) which has put out anything approaching autonomy, not Tesla. Tesla requires a driver.

Two things:

1. There are a number of accounts created in the last 30 minutes commenting on this thread, including yours. Did you just happen across HN? If so, welcome!

2. If you read my other comments, you'll see I'm very much in favour of reforming non-violent drug law sentencing. I'm even in favour of clemency for the vast majority of non-violent offenders. I also think you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone in this thread who thinks in the way your strawman/caricature does. The whole point is that draconian prison sentences are a shame and do little do address the core problem (whether it's drug abuse or violent crime).

I also think using phrases like "your average racist white" is unnecessarily provocative, and the phrase itself is inaccurate.
An argument could be made that if you are traveling that much, the hotel mattress becomes the one you get used to and your mattress at home becomes the odd one. Why not have the same one in both cases?
I agree with you that my account is biased because I love my father dearly. However, I am not in denial that what he did was wrong. I always knew he had done the wrong thing, and he always took complete responsibility for what he did. He pled guilty and never tried to shift blame to anyone but himself. Like I said, it was out of character for him and something he did during a time of intense difficulty for our family.
Part of this article seems incorrect. My Intel Mac Mini (2018) is reporting two Thunderbolt hubs in System Report, just like the M1 they’re demonstrating. That part at least is not unique to the new chip.

> It's been at least 2 years since I've run into a issue with python and dependencies that wasn't solved by both of those approaches.

The problem is that this leaves us with 2 years of documentation that's reliable and addresses easily-solved problems, and 28 years of everything else that will confuse anyone new to the language. Not ideal when accessibility is one of the language's primary selling points.

One of the major problems with fixing design choices or odd behaviours in software is that all of the old threads and posts don't just disappear, and people are now going to be lead down paths that are not only so convoluted and ridiculous that they were eventually changed, but often paths that don't even work any more.

It's very very tough to fix that problem retroactively.
Adding buttons to the UI is an alternative indeed, but so far I've resisted to add anything outside of the terminal. Once I let the environment "spill" outside of the terminal emulator, it'll be hard to draw the line on where to stop... and it'll be hard to reconcile that functionality with the command line version. (For example, right now, the editor on the web shows a status bar within the terminal, not outside.)

By the way: replying back to your original post because I did not see that earlier. The idea to have a command line vs. an editor you can easily switch to came from Borland Sidekick Plus. I used to use that back in the day on an 8086 to write Clipper code, and toggling between DOS and the resident editor was very cool.
I don’t understand this bit: [..] AB 71 would state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation to create a comprehensive, statewide homelessness solutions program. In addition, AB 71 would create the Bring California Home Fund in the State Treasury for the purpose of providing at least $2,400,000 annually to fund a comprehensive, statewide homeless solutions program upon appropriation by the Legislature. And, AB 71 would require the Bring California Home Fund to contain revenues derived from specified changes to the Personal Income Tax Law or the Corporation Tax Law that are enacted on or after the effective of the date of this bill.[..]

Why are they collecting 2.4 Billion and setting aside just 2.4 Million for the homelessness solution.

I am sure I am misreading something or perhaps not understanding?
Oh for sure. Grieving over death in 2020 is just all around a bad experience.

But I think it's fair to say that the excess deaths [1] in 2020 have certainly amplified the reality of death, especially within the context of a shared experience. My grandma was otherwise healthy and I had had a lot of conversations with her about how much we looked forward to seeing each other once the pandemic was "over".

Isn't Quora like that already?
"very clear limitations" that users continue to ignore. Some of that is stupid users, some of that is users assuming that "autopilot" means more than it does because that term has already meant something for the last 40 years in our society - something that Tesla doesn't deliver on.

Tesla's warnings to put your hands on the wheel are obviously insufficient based on regular videos of drivers asleep at the wheel on the freeway (https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/18/21445168/tesla-driver-sle... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhObsMnipS8 https://www.businessinsider.com/drivers-sleeping-in-tesla-ca... and many more). At a bare minimum, their code needs to bring the vehicle to a safe half rather than continue on its way forever dinging if the user refuses to interact with it.

And no, there are far worse things that can happen. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-51645566 https://apnews.com/article/ca5e62255bb87bf1b151f9bf075aaadf
What are you accomplishing by doing that?
That’s true (except I assume you mean superset) but I think some of the shortening of it has a risk of masking just how awful that is. And in this case it’s not a JSON problem, it’s general data interchange design.

I’ve worked on too many applications that have HTTP body, query, header, cookie logic deep in business logic. Or distributed systems just pulling rando values out of messages. Or database queries making assumptions about blob data. It’s pervasive. Engineers routinely design systems where they overload the types of their tools and just whistle while their world burns.
> It's unlikely that one or more large companies will be able to capture the Internet as it's too big and people are going to be sophisticated enough to realize that a solution from one company is neither called for nor possible.

While I’m all for being critical of TSLA’s FSD rollout I do think a bit of perspective is warranted: in the USA drivers are routinely drunk, distracted, or just plain stupid.

Everyday day I get on the road and I’m forced to drive defensively because I cannot trust any car on the road to behave logically.

How is that situation changed at all by having computers that don’t behave logically?

There’s a huge confirmation bias at play where you all seem to think human drivers are good... they’re not. They’re absolutely 100% not. The average driver is a complete moron. Go spend 10 minutes scrolling the /r/IdiotsInCars subreddit to get a feel for what I’m talking about.

So no, I don’t think TSLA is being irresponsible in their FSD rollout. At worst it’s equivalent to the average human driver.
Yeah I think what I proposed is an example of what an AI could come up with if it's given a goal of maximising human happiness and reducing misery.
What a horrible comment. The impact of social distancing is far worse than a few minor diseases. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Wikipedia says the 2000-01 California energy crisis was caused by Enron. I believe it will take years of engineering-driven investment (upgrade lines; trim trees; clear flammables from the transmission corridors) to make power reliable in California again, but the California energy companies are bankrupt (again?) after judgments in recent years' wildfires.

I believe the reliability problem is worst in California and is less of a problem in other states and countries. (But offset in part by the large number of charging stations in metro areas, at least in SFBA.)

That said, a replacement doesn't need to be as reliable as its predecessor, it only needs to be reliable enough. Cell phones, for example, will go down a few hours after a power outage, whereas POTS phones were engineered to stay up (and provide power to corded phones) during power outages and weather events. Cell phones are more convenient.

EVs have two nice properties: faster acceleration than gas cars (which some view as a safety feature), and they're cheaper to fuel than gas cars. This can tip the balance in favor of an EV for day-to-day use.

If you are prepping, I think it still makes sense to have at least one conventional gas-powered car. Just make sure to keep the tank at least 3/4s full; gas pumps tend to go down during blackouts.
There's nothing wrong with it if, and only if, people understand that's the choice they're making.

Here we have an exodus driven by *privacy* concerns surrounding the new policy. Users fled from WhatsApp to other services with the intent of keeping their conversations more private. The subset of those who switched to Telegram made their conversations strictly *less* private, achieving the opposite of their goals.

There is something wrong with that.
I have empathy for both. You're not preventing this from happening again. I'm trying to root cause the issue and make sure it happens to no one.
It's part of FB business model that the user doesn't really know what happens with his data.
Be aware that Comma.ai doesn't bill itself as self-driving, it is just driver assist.
And what does this accomplish?
So much hate towards Tesla here. I'm more neutral - dont have a strong opinion on this. But from Google's messaging it seems that the Waymo CEO is maybe a bit defensive (scared?). Tesla has probably the long term better strategy which leads to more accurate up to date data to constantly improve their system.

Tesla's crowdsourcing strategy might be the winning horse in this race.

I don't think the Indian government wants everyone to use signal where all end-to-end convos are encrypted and Signal will refuse to open a backdoor for the Indian government. They would basically lose everyone at that point.
If I were to argue my point deeper, I'd say that these societies (orgs) that embrace diversity both are very recent or very recently exerted a significant effort to be more tolerant due to very pressing issues. Otherwise our monkey brains are wired to think "other/them = bad, same/us = good". Groups amplify monkey brain, because monkey brain gets us in groups so that leopards don't kill us at night. Hence the inherence and need for significant effory to override instinct.
The Deep Learning book is great & I have a copy, but its not honestly something that I read cover to cover.

"That’s not the natural order of things!"

It's exceedingly arrogant to tell residents of community what the 'natural order of things' should be in their community.

The 'natural order of things' in SF is whatever the residents want it to be.
Death is quite natural, but the fact that a single pathogen, which other "western" nations managed to get under control has become the second leading cause of death in the United States is a horrific thing.

Heart disease is a systemic issue of our lifestyle and diet, and we don't know how to prevent cancer. A pathogen is fairly simple by comparison - if you don't catch it you can't die from it. Prevent the spread and people won't die from it.

I think Tesla has a distinct advantage over Waymo because of their ability to control the entire vehicle stack from low-level ECUs to the batteries, motors and high-level autonomous stack.

Waymo has to partner with automobile OEMs who are still figuring out how to build electric vehicles, and build them in a way that can integrate with Waymo's technology.
Of course I would. There's a reason we don't want mob justice. And there's a reason families aren't really involved in prosecution.

Hi all, loving the healthy debate.

Key to this process, for me, is that the habit tracking and reminders are secondary actions. No active tracking of habits, reminders only show up rarely. I’m doing the behavior without any time of prompt.

If you’re looking to do this too, I’d recommend picking something very small and not over doing it.

Also, a big thank you to the developer of Streaks, Quinten. He checked over the Shortcuts workflow and even shipped an update to make this is a bit easier to do now.

Or you know, people could just not live on top of each other in cities and fucking move/demand their companies allow them to live in rural areas. Micro-solutions like "eliminating parking minimums" is just a tiny band-aid on a giant gaping wound of an issue. If your company allows you to work remotely and you dont, thats on you and you get the life quality you deserve for being inflexible. Theres a lot of people who live in cities as a choice rather than a necessity because they want the lifestyle. Well you cant afford it, sorry.
I read the question and answers and felt a little cheerful at the idea of someone turning his life around and even thought to myself that maybe the system works sometimes.

Then I came back here and read a few of the comments, particularly those by the new throwaway accounts (except for the top one). I shouldn't have read the comments, particularly those by the new throwaway accounts (and not because they might have changed my mind about the question and answers; they didn't, far from it).
Reminds me of the film "Absence of Malice," directed by the great Sydney Pollack, starring Paul Newman and Sally Field.

"... That as a matter of law, the truth is irrelevant. We have no knowledge the story is false, therefore we're absent malice. We've been both reasonable and prudent, therefore we're not negligent. We may say whatever we like about Mr. Gallagher, and he is powerless to do us harm. Democracy is served."
