Why do votes matter, up or down?

Do you upvote or downvote based on agreement, or whether you thought the comment was worth reading, well said, important point, etc? Do you assume others are doing the same, and your vote counts reflect that?

I say votes dont matter; people hit those buttons for many reasons and we'll never know what those reasons were and shouldn't care.

If you felt it was worth saying, good. If you still do, better. If others disagree or not, here on HN; does it actually matter? Does it matter any more if they voted for grammar over content?
Most humans do not, indeed, work well in those 1% conditions. If they wanted to avoid damage to their cars, other cars, or human death/injury, they would pull over or choose not to drive when the weather calls for bad driving conditions, or when drunk. I imagine Tesla and the rest will be on-par with humans in these driving conditions within 5 years, but it’s definitely fair to ask that they be 10x as safe as a regular driver which might take 15 or 25 years.
The person with the least skin in the game is likely to be the fairest judge
I disagree that its deceptive. Technically yes the car can drive itself albeit not perfect. Tesla never claim it can drive perfectly either.
Inventory taxes inform the decisions of every business I have done work for. Without the taxes we would carry a few months of parts. But we can't. It's too expensive.
Yeah, I need to make a personal rule about posting questions before I've had any caffeine.
I guess it depends on what value you get from a car. A tesla model 3 performance has a faster 0-60 time than a porche (or similar) for ~1/2 the price. That makes it a great deal for a lot of people, regardless of self driving.

I’d be thrilled if they win and this sets a precedent for other markets, I.E Steam as well.
Making the names part of the type solves this, like structural object types in TypeScript. I’ve come to the conclusion myself that, with the right language syntax supporting it, positional arguments and tuples should be limited to two, maybe three entries, and in the vast majority of cases should be replaced with named/keyword arguments and records even when they are that small (with unnamed, ordered entries being used in cases where there aren’t better names than “first” and “second” or “a” and “b”).
It might be instructive to imagine what would have to change about USA to allow 200mph trains. (real ones, not hypothetical BS like Elon's tubes)
As a counter, and to re-use your own metaphor, this position of "let's forget about mars and only deal with climate change" is equivalent to saying to the man without a parachute "you'll be totally fine if you just put on a parachute". Despite the fact that he's a smoker, has a missile locked onto him, and is busily aiming himself at the lava pool of an erupting volcano as he falls.

You seem to misunderstand that nobody here said climate change isn't urgent, or that it should be less urgent than getting to mars. Or that it's not worthy of more resources at the moment than getting to mars. The point being made is that we can and should be doing both at the same time.

It shouldn't matter. If you're banned from going to a particular physical store for whatever reason, wrongly or not, you still get to keep everything you've ever bought there. If a physical store goes out of business, you also get to keep everything you've ever bought there.

Point being, IRL stores don't retain any control over anything you buy.
You might want to look into using `Arc<str>`. It's an immutable string slice that can have many owners and will be dropped once the last one is done with it.
> Of course the R&D makes upt the majority of the price. When is that ever not the case?

Like, pretty much every other product that wasn't an entirely new concept in the last few years? Looking around me, I think the thing with the highest R&D price component is probably the chips in computers (desktop, laptop, smartphones), everything else is just mass production and low markup with hardly any research recuperation in the price (keyboard, lamp, paper, desk, floor, beanbag, fridge, IR thermometer, picture frames, a spoon, a computer display...). Unless you meant "when is that not the case for astro trackers", I don't get what you meant because it's rather exceptional to still be paying off R&D if you're buying regular mass-produced consumer products.

> This is something that has been thought about,

Obviously, but if it's open source (with a free, commercial-use license and no big call for donations other than a coffee) then apparently recuperation that design time is not a goal, they're actively giving it away for free and encouraging people to make it themselves. That suggested to me that the price must be for an expensive component or two. Or perhaps the printing time, but since it's mostly unattended and filament is cheap, I didn't expect it to be that. And the tracking calculations have been long done by people decades ago, so it's just buying parts and putting them together, where the "putting together" part is done by the customer since it's a kit. So yeah I expected the price to be mostly an expensive precise motor or something.
> So why build the concept car in the first place?

Because it builds media attention to the potential related production development; there’s usually particular features that are envisioned being for future production.

> As a consumer seeing them at this point is just aggravating

Consumers aren’t really the target audience, their exposure is more of a side-effect.
You’ll notice that there is a Detroit to Toronto line on that map. It’s not an accident. Chicago to Detroit has been running at 110mph for 80+% of the distance for almost 10 years now. The rail tunnel under the Detroit River already exists.

You just need a fast NYC to Buffalo with a little extension on to Hamilton, ON and you’ve got a very direct NYC to Chicago route.
It is impossible with ML alone to get to Level 3. You have to include a conceptual computing system that can understand what things are, how they usually behave and what they were just doing, so that the system can predict what they might do next and react accordingly, as we humans do instantaneously.
I think you're missing the guy moved there in 2000 not 2010 or 2019. Birmingham, probably a smaller city in it's own right anyways (England doesn't really have "big city" outside London), has probably not grown any significant amount in 20 years. I wouldn't be surprised if Wuxi more than doubled.

20:1 would be "Wuxi City" (i.e. prefecture where the 6.5 million comes from) as a whole to Birmingham the traditional "city proper" westerners would think. Looking at the actual data on that... 4628/268=17.2x - not bad for a swag :).

Again my point isn't "Birmingham is big stronk western city put puny Asian city shame" it's probably 3 fold at this point:

1) If you put Birmingham the city proper in urban China people would be saying it's a small city.

2) What people call a "city" in the west is usually vastly smaller than some of the places with "city" in the name in China, as such googling "population of <x> city" and comparing it to familiar "population of <y> city" is just going to confuse people more than help them understand how big these places are.

3) Wuxi is going to be a lot smaller in 2000 when the story was taking place than today, western cities don't have that kind of powerhouse growth anymore where you have to think when the event happened not just where.

.

Maybe you still disagree with my conclusion, and that's fine, mostly I wanted to get these 3 concepts out there regardless where the reader ends up on the matter.
Better to compare to France then. They build high speed lines for between 1/5th and 1/20th of the cost of the one the UK is building. Just to prempt the France is flat and land is cheap arguments. 1/5th is the cost of the section of line between Lyon and Marseille that crosses the Massif Central with 50 tunnels and bridges and plenty of earthworks. The cost of land acquisition is only £8bn of the £100bn+ cost of HS2.
Not disagreeing but the iPad could certainly support multitasking that doesn't kill apps. For instance, being able to download in the browser while checking email.
Chernobyl was still operating despite of what happened in 1986 (bloc no 1 was shut down in 2000), so perhaps this workshop was also in use and Xerox paper pack is new.
Is this really a matter of tooling versus programming, or is it a matter of wanting to create rather than wanting to re-use the work of others?

Even purely in code, you always (EDIT: usually) have the choice of implementing a solution yourself or finding the work of someone else, packaged into a library, which solves the problem for you.

Implementing the solution yourself may be the most satisfying way to scratch that instantaneous creative itch. But does it create the end result which you can be most proud of or satisfied with?
I was speaking more broadly regarding anonymity.

> Yes, of course there are many people who are aggressive about their views and basically intolerant, but if someone crosses the line they'll be downvoted here too, even if they have leftish/progressive views.

The gamification of social interaction creates the intolerant views and all the negative incentives around it. Downvoting / Upvoting is part of that. It is literally the mob deciding whether you have a right to be heard. I rather there were the rules and nothing else.

> Frankly, of many places on today's Internet, HN is one of the nicest to be.

Which is another reason why dissenting opinion is quashed because people self-censor. Sometimes some things have to be said and they have to be said in an unpleasant manner.

It is pretty clear at this point we are just talking past one another though.
Easy rerouting is also a disadvantage: no one wants to rely on a service that can be effortlessly taken away.

It is not the US govt fault that the Indian govt is incompetent.
Why are you arguing this? Are you really arguing the price of the unit because it's made from $2 worth of plastic, so why the mark up? Why does a car cost so much when there's clearly not $30k worth of parts in it. Why does a house cost $500k when there's only $70k of material. Trolls have to eat too I guess.

From your continued asking of the "why" question, it makes me wonder if you've ever tried to build a DIY anything yourself. Developing something like this involves a lot of the designer's literal blood, sweat, and tears. There are all sorts of levels of DIY from using 2x4s to machine precision accuracy. I will say, that precision is what astro is all about though. A seemingly innocent +/-1 degree accuracy will be okay-ish for something like wide-angle DSLR type shots, but once you start using longer lenses, you will be wasting your time.
> Nobody could afford a ticket of they had to lay their own tracks.

I'm under the impression that China subsidizes the cost of train tickets because it's viewed as an economic multiplier and sociatal benefit. As an American, it'd be pretty cool if America could do this. It'd also be helpful for tourists to visit smaller train connected cities rather than flying from 1 hub to the next.
Again, I submit myself as an existence proof to the contrary.
The FSD package as it exists gets you autonomy on highways already. That alone was enough for me to buy it. The beta looks pretty acceptable to me too, and I look forward to that feature rolling out.

Exactly what am I not getting? This really seems like a strawman kind of thing. You're inventing a product and a market that don't correspond to real cars or consumers, and then arguing about what those consumers "really" wanted or what the car was "supposed" to do, and not what they actually want or what the hardware actually does.

I don't see how that's helpful to anyone other than an investor short on TSLA. The way to prove that this is a garbage product, again, is to make a better one.

I have written a couple of technical books and what works for me is to blog about it. This would be the step after the outline step in the article.

If I can't write 10 or so blog posts on the topic, can I really commit to a full book? For me, the answer is no. There's a lot of grinding in writing a book, so you'll need intrinsic enthusiasm on the topic to finish.

Leanpub is a nice way to get feedback as well (there's nothing that indicates commitment like $$), but writing blog posts (and sharing them on places like HN or a forum about the technology) can get you feedback.
Or knives? Knives are not banned in the EU but trying to stab people with them usually is. Yet most people don't seem to have a problem with the criminalization of stabbing people with knives.

The medium is the message.

Look, if you and I are talking about the population of Birmingham, but instead of speaking normally you are signing your comments to the tune of "Never gonna give you up", I'm not going to reply to anything about Birmingham. I'm going to go "Uh, what's with the singing, are you OK?"

I think you got what you wanted, which was to show to everybody how cool you are with your long now dates, and the conversation is exactly where you wanted it. You're welcome, happy to serve!

I couldn't resist the bait, I'm just a man.
The water will break apart into raindrops which fall at terminal velocity. Depending on relative humidity, they evaporate as they go, making them cool and get smaller, which lowers the weight/surface area ratio, and they get slightly slower.

Literally the next line in the email, which the article conveniently omits:

> Please note that Tesla’s development of true autonomous features (SAE Levels 3+) will follow our iterative process (development, validation, early release, etc.) and any such features will not be released to the general public until we have fully validated them and received any required regulatory permits or approvals.
Wow, that's a pretty badly researched post. And not one of the comments corrected it, during the three days it's been up. Instead they mostly gloated in a rather shallow and uninformed way.

Typical example: "The thought police have finally come to stop us from updating our beliefs…". Is this idiocy/jingoism a columbia.edu thing or is it isolated to their statistics department?

The meat of the the proposal starts at page 43 (https://ec.europa.eu/newsroom/dae/document.cfm?doc_id=75788), which begins with:

The following artificial intelligence practices shall be prohibited:
(a) the placing on the market, putting into service or use of an AI system that
deploys subliminal techniques beyond a person’s consciousness in order to
materially distort a person’s behaviour in a manner that causes or is likely to
cause that person or another person physical or psychological harm;

(b) the placing on the market, putting into service or use of an AI system that
exploits any of the vulnerabilities of a specific group of persons due to their
age, physical or mental disability, in order to materially distort the behaviour of
a person pertaining to that group in a manner that causes or is likely to cause
that person or another person physical or psychological harm;

So, yes, the EU is proposing regulating the use of e.g. bayesian estimation in implementing these practices.
> Functional languages which tend to model closed systems [...] OOP platforms which deal with the "outside world" a lot

The open vs closed systems logic simply doesn't have any kind of relation with whether one "deals with the outside world", it's about knowing what you're about to receive. And Java, which you quoted earlier, is very much geared for closed systems. On the other hand, Prolog, a language that hardly qualifies as OOP is built to work on open systems.

Closed systems language deal with the outside world pretty gracefully, by parsing their inputs.

> A language that targets the browser is going to be inherently open.

There's been a flurry of closed-system languages for the web in the last decade (e.g. Elm, Fable, etc.), and they work just fine.
docker for Mac and docker compose should work just fine, not sure what you're missing or what's not working. I've not had issues running proxies in docker or docker compose, could you respond with more of the details around your error case?

And if you go into docker for Mac and click the checkbox you can spin up a single node Kubernetes cluster to try out your stuff with.

With VMs you could do the same with even more nodes either simulating a multi-node setup of k8s within a single VM or using N VMs for a multi-node setup or spin up VMs for each node to join the k8s cluster.

Cross country - perhaps not. But, living in Europe, I see many people chhosing a train for 4-5h over 1-1.5h flight.

For 1,5h flight you end up wasting 3-4h anyway because you need to get to the airport etc, and out of those 3-4h most of the time you can’t do anything productive or relaxing either. With 5h train you can either relax or work and it’s much more productive. Also less co2 produced ofc.

And that’s with “slow” trains going 100mph. With faster trains as in France or Japan even more airplane rides are unnecessary
> minimum order quantity(MOQ) required for purchase at one time is between 10,000 to 50,000

Yes, that's quite reasonable. Approaching E Ink would be the equivalent of approaching Intel's tier 1 supply chain and asking what's their MOQ. You wouldn't expect them to sell you 1 unit would you? Like all display manufacturers, they also have distributors that supply the various tiers. At the lowest value tier is the individual customers (ie: developers) who cost the most to support and provide the least profit. So expect pricing to match that value level. It is the same for Samsung. Same for LG.

What I perceive is some kind of entitlement syndrome (that's the feeling I get when reading that blog, it was also the same blog that alleged E Ink was abusing patents based on an HN post and when I challenged it, they finally relented and marked it as "unproven" ) where product ideation people (that blog author for example) think that display companies somehow owe them support. They get hundreds of these kinds of messages all the time from universities, research organizations, educational organizations, product startups all demanding responses and attention but mostly unwilling to pay for it. The reality of the display market is that unless you're coming to a display company with a MOQ or a strong value proposition, you can be certain they'll either ignore you or ask you to talk to one of their lowest tier distributors.
Yeah, that's the hypothetical that should definitely be played up – "buying" a movie and Apple terminating your account 5 minutes later. Makes it exceedingly clear that this certainly isn't "buying" and calling it such is false advertising.
I worked as a mastering engineer for a couple years back in the aughts, and I can confirm that to really max things out requires production techniques.

For example, analog tape naturally saturates high frequency sounds before low frequency sounds, which brings down the peak level of a close mic'd drum. Peak limiting a recording which already has analog-saturated drums produces fewer audible artifacts.

In the abstract, at mastering-time you can achieve any absolute level without hard-clipping by smushing down the peaks with peak limiting and multi-band compression, then dialing things back up with makeup gain. But when compared against the original recording in a level matched test, at some point the processed result becomes unacceptably degraded.

California is already claiming that Tesla cars have too much ADAS to drive without Tesla getting a license to operate them in the state. Tesla is actually claiming to CA regulators that the system is not that good so they can avoid needing a license.
