This feels like bad faith. Musk has been making these claims every year since 2016. His coverage of these claims on HN is regular and thorough.

I went ahead and Googled one for you from 2020:

Tesla will be able to make its vehicles completely autonomous by the end of this year, founder Elon Musk has said.

It was already "very close" to achieving the basic requirements of this "level-five" autonomy, which requires no driver input, he said.

It's not just CI providers: we're seeing the same thing on Render (https://render.com) and I bet Heroku and AWS are all equally impacted.

Most knowledge workers are paid for impact, not hours worked.

If your results-based performance is deemed adequate, that means either the company is getting good value for the money they pay you, or they have a broken performance management system.

ADHD doesn't really factor into it. If ADHD leads an employee to have subpar performance, they will be fired just like anyone else.

Caveat: the best companies think like this. Most don't.
Especially since we are talking 10-year increments here, for the pandemic to have a real impact on census stuff, it would have to have killed many people _who were not otherwise going to die over the next decade_. Most likely, we front-loaded a lot of these expected deaths to the early part of the decade. That is to say, at some point in the next 10 years the census will be an accurate representation of living voting-age people in the USA.

I didn't balk at 500k deaths. In fact, I tried to make sure that nobody would accuse me of downplaying the deaths/impact of the pandemic.
Some of the big tech companies may want your GPA. But it has never come up for me.

I graduated in 2019 at 29 years old. Got a D in my final quarter, which tanked my GPA below 2.0 (since I was a transfer student). I didn't qualify to graduate with a B.S. anymore (unless I retook that class), so switched my degree to B.A. in C.S.
It's slow at the beginning, but the payoffs are huge. With mobbing, everyone knows how to do everything. Far less design mistakes are made. No one ends up "owning" certain parts of the system. It's also very humbling as everyone succeeds and fails together, discouraging "heroics".
Pairing is also great for this (but you have to switch every day).

Obviously, if you're working in a feature factory, pairing and mobbing are pointless. If you care about code quality and de-siloing, they're incredibly valuable.

Obviously, it's not for everyone, but it works incredibly well where I work and I will never accept another job that doesn't encourage pairing by default.
This. The battery in the Apple watch is abysmal. I understand that as a watch its "smarter" than the Garmin watches, but charging a watch everyday is a hard no for me. The Fenix 6x lasts for 2-3 weeks while training every day. I wish the Apple watch would prioritize its battery life.

The Lifehacker article is brief. If you want something deeper, I recommend Wendy M. Troxel’s recent book “Sharing the Covers”. The author acknowledges the term “sleep divorce” and suggests alternatives, as the book is also about the mental and overall health of close relationships.

In Mahatma Gandhi’s 1921 book “A Guide to Health” chapter IX he states: “It is not enough to observe the laws of health as regards air, water, and food. The man should altogether cease to sleep in privacy with his wife. Little reflection is needed to show that the only possible motive for privacy between man and wife is the desire for sexual enjoyment. They should sleep apart at night, and be incessantly engaged in good works during the day. They should read such books as fill them with noble thoughts and mediate over the lives of great men, and live in the constant realisation of the fact that sensual enjoyment is the root of all disease. Whenever they feel a prompting for enjoyment, they should bathe in cold water, so that the heat of passion may be cooled down, and be refined into the energy of virtuous activity. This is a hard thing to do, but we have been born into this world that we might wrestle with difficulties and temptations, and conquer them; and he who has not the will to do it can never enjoy the supreme blessing of true health.”

Well. He might overreach here, and in other parts of the book I question whether science supports his claims, but we’re a diverse bunch of individuals; experiment and see what works. His admonishment to breathe only through the nose is, erm, on the nose according to James Nestor and his journalism in his recent book “Breath” where he and another person went ten days with their noses plugged, for science.

Back to sleeping: I find it helpful to sleep alone, in part because I’m sensitive to touch and sometimes find it tough to return to sleep once disturbed. Being rested is even more important now that I’m responsibly for a child. It took some adjustment, but since my partner is more of an owl to my lark, and we both like our private time for recharging, and we are still attracted to each other to the point of distraction from virtuous activity, sleeping apart continues to be a healthy move.
Yep. We don't start 1st graders with calculus, we start them with arithmetic. Variables are called variables by late elementary school, algebra is more properly taught as algebra in 8th or 9th grade (US), with geometry, trig, and calculus following that.

You can develop a similar plan for teaching programming that starts with basics and progressing (variables, linear control flow (aka, no conditionals or loops), conditionals, loops, functions/subroutines, complex types like records, recursion, modules and classes; in roughly that order). You aren't hiding anything, you aren't misstating anything, you just don't move on to advanced things until it's time to. Of course, this progression would probably be a lot faster than the arithmetic -> calculus progression.
I'm not certain the Waymo Driver has the concept of trains built in, but what if they did? How good is it? I applied at Waymo and found out they don't do well in the rain. What if they train is splashing up water in front of it? I'd like to know how it deals with falling rocks, which is a problem in California. Would they tell me or lie about self-driving, like some well known spoke persons do? What are the hackable weaknesses of Waymo? Have they tried to have visual and computer hackers fool the car and send it the wrong way? It just seems to me it's going to take awhile, maybe decades in my amatuer opinion.
It's amusing to think that, if she had said it with her boob out, she likely would not have been punished by the school, because nobody would have saved and rebroadcast it for an adult.
Vastly depends on the country. In France, lots of efforts were made ( salary compensation so that people keep their jobs and get paid by the government, and companies aren't forced to fold; loans and loan guarantees for businesses; compensation for missed revenues for impacted companies; schools were kept open to give equal opportunities to children; moratorium on evictions; etc etc), with the president even saying multiple times "whatever it costs" ( the guy who was elected on a fiscal responsibility and reform platform ). And still people were left worse than before. It's really not easy, but governments really have to do their best.
It's a great way to attract people that just want to shove low quality solutions into your project. I recall github or some other org offering free tshirts if you committed to open source. Repos were flooded with one line changes and the real developers got annoyed

Not just "developed by Bell", but developed by the original authors of UNIX.

Everything gets an overhaul. Dennis Richie and Pike clean up C -- hell, even make(1) gets a complete makeover in mk(1), after 30 years of talking with users and having to use it.

From the perspective of software development, UNIX is the "build one to throw away" version. Plan9 is UNIX on steroids.
AOC could lose her district and opt to run against Schumer instead of staying in the House. Payback for AOC beating another incumbent Democrat that ends in her beating Schumer for US Senate.

Did you even read the article?

The ENTIRE POINT of the idea is to NOT censor anything, but to add context -- adding information, not censoring it. Letting people make their own decisions.

The problem here is that there is a massive asymmetry. This has been noticed for centuries with the maxim "A Lie Can Travel Halfway Around the World While the Truth Is Putting On Its Shoes" (some interesting history on that at [1]).

This is because our brains are tuned to seek out novelty, and to seek out information on threats.

This enables those who want to manipulate us and especially the masses -- creating fake news and fear porn will get the attention of pretty much everyone, and anyone who is not both actively better informed at the time, and actively thinking, will be inflamed and motivated.

Voltaire pointed out that “Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.”

The people spreading disinformation treat that as an instruction instead of a warning.

Adding this kind of contextual information seems a far better solution than censoring.

The more people join, the lower the rate of return[1]. The max inflation is about 1.71% annually, if 100M ETH stakes. Total supply right now is only 115M.

Net issuance will be lower than that because some transaction fees will get burned. It's possible that the supply will actually decrease.

There's no limit to the amount of stake other than the ETH supply, but they're talking about setting a limit of 32M ETH, just because it'd be more efficient and they don't really expect it to get that high anyway. Under that plan the validators get automatically rotated if >32M stakes.

Bowline
"The bowline (/ˈboʊlɪn/ or /ˈboʊlaɪn/) is an ancient and simple knot used to form a fixed loop at the end of a rope. It has the virtues of being both easy to tie and untie; most notably, it is easy to untie after being subjected to a load. The bowline is sometimes referred to as King of the knots because of its importance. Along with the sheet bend and the clove hitch, the bowline is often considered one of the most essential knots."
From the article:

>> "When your elected government snoops on you, they famously prefer the metadata of who you emailed, phoned or chatted to the content of the messages themselves."

This is strictly false. They prefer to have the content, but it is illegal to record the content of conversations of "US Persons" without a warrant. However, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_v._Maryland it is legal to keep a pen register of all numbers called, since this is not considered protected under the constitution.

Arch User Repository Blocks Pamac

I think you’re right. For the AI we have today, it’s the equivalent of 1990. My guess is that as sensor arrays improve, wireless networks improve and quantum laptops are available in 2040 or so.

Think about it — most software is deployed cloud first these days, but one of the most complex computing tasks we have is relying on some black box computer.
"We have completely blocked the Pamac user agent, to restore service for the users. It seems there's an issue with the latest pamac version that's causing this number of requests."
Can't say about legal rulings and precedent about free speech, but I can't remember it ever being okay to, for example, swear in front of teachers outside school. Especially in small enough towns, conduct outside of the school always came back to bite you in the ass since everyone would hear about everything. And I imagine social media has amplified this x1000.

Red states gaining seats is in no way incompatible with demographic changes. Red states become less red via population growth could fully explain this effect, and seems like a completely plausible explanation.
I had Rosetta well before I ran into these issues, I think Homebrew still required it when I got the computer.

Before I figured out the way to identify the offending dependencies I sorted the issue through signing the executable with codesign, in a way that required me to disable part of SIP. So the code was working, it was just not being allowed to run.
To do mobbing effectively you should be switching the driver very rapidly. It's a bit tough remotely, but it can be done. There are probably other ways to make it effective, but if only a few people are contributing, then the mob has failed and should either be recalibrated or stopped altogether.
I don't think I agree with this. Suppose there were 1 million representatives, each with ~330 constituents. This is untenable, sure, but imagine this were the case. Would a body like that even be capable of having votes on party lines? Would a body like that even be capable of operating as a two party system?

Then, the academic cases, wouldn't a body like that make it more likely to have other parties have a larger role in national politics?

I'd say since the house is supposed to be a democratic institution, the only one in the federal government, making individual members less powerful is a good thing. If the body is supposed to represent the population directly, the less powerful each individual is in the body the less oligarchic that body will be.
So it boils down to the fact that `YouTube Music != YouTube`. In that case you could be right about the user's expectation.

I for one don't use YT Music, but to use YT. Then again I don't use Pandora or Spotify as well, but do listen to music on YouTube (non-music). In my case, I'd expect the search to be executed in the context of YT, but that's what the defaults are there for. I'd choose YT (non-music) as default, if that's possible, or YT Music if i'd care.

Yes, somehow it does make sense that it selects the app which is set as a default, even if I would expect it to perform the query in the opened app.

Can it act upon "Open Song/Performer in Pandora/Spotify"? What's so hard about it? It all doesn't make sense to me.

I'd expect it not to query in YT Music but in the app which is currently open, which is simple YouTube. No, it feels like Google shouldn't have the right to expect YT Music to get launched if it is not set as the default app.
Not that my above comment was perfect, but let me attempt to be more succint.

> Monetary appreciation only helps

Appreciation of an asset only helps the holders of said asset. But "appreciation" is always an exchange rate. Appreciated relative to what?

> A deflationary environment explicitly benefits creditors.

And this is where my contention lies. This dogmatic condemnation of deflation ever being allowed to happen. Temporary deflation or even deflation for some extended period of time is not a bad thing.

Economic velocity runs on volatility and not what one currency or asset is doing relative to another. Inflating and deflating exchange rates only increase volatility. But, truly, only if both types of relationships are allowed and are not artificially snuffed out by government and/or central bank intervention.

And you assume that creditors are the only ones holding an asset? Credit is only one kind of exchange. Spending is another. Stock trading is another. They all depend on volatility.

Thus, I am not arguing for inflation or deflation. I am arguing for the greatest amount of allowance for natural volatility.

> in your proposed monetary environment.

I see that you assumed that I was arguing for constant monetary appreciation. I was arguing that there is nothing wrong with monetary appreciation.

It seem that you and others are deadset on arguing that all deflation is immoral.

My above comment mentions the common root of such views.

> Much like it's difficult for newcomers to buy large amounts of bitcoin.

Yes, I should clarify my bitcoin comments. Bitcoin is deflationary relative to USD (where most "newcomers" are coming from).

BUT, to add substance to my point it should also be noted that there are coins that outperform Bitcoin and are thus deflationary in their relationship to Bitcoin. A newcomer holding these would actually have more purchasing power.

I clarify this to stress that at the end of the day: consumer spending, loans, credit, etc. are all trading. And trading is what makes the economy go around. Volatility is good.
> When was the last bridge you saw without a barrier to prevent going off the edge?

That's a disingenuous question. Many bridges have wooden guards that will prevent you from going off if you make a small mistake, but not a large one.

> What makes you think a vehicle vision system will handle "blinded by sun" any worse than humans already do?

Humans can move their head, and block the sun with a hand, hat, or sunshade in the car. Humans have two eyes so if one is obstructed, the other may still get good vision.

> so being blinded by the sun isn't going to cause it to swerve wildly off course and off the bridge - it can continue to use the data it had before being blinded (just as you do).

Unless it's an incredibly well-trained AI, it may mistake lens flare for oncoming traffic, or a pedestrian. Car AI is not at the point where it has common sense to assume that lens flare is incorrect information.
When it comes to the device's global search feature, Roku is the developer, period. Google is only pushing this because they know they have market/end-user leverage, not because it's inherently better for the user. And even if it is, that's for Roku's product managers to decide.

Your airplane engine analogy doesn't really work; Roku doesn't want to modify the YouTube app; this is purely Roku's own global search feature. Yes, it will aggregate results from the YT app, but Roku doesn't want to modify that data source. Further, the Rolls->Boeing/Airbus relationship is more like a vendor->purchaser arrangement, which is nothing like the Roku->Google relationship here.

Signals selling point was secure messaging.

Now they seem to be diverging from that.

Telegrams selling point was a better WhatsApp, and IIRC this started back when WhatsApp was still unencrypted (yes, not point-to-point encrypted but unencrypted).

Since then they've always taken the lead over WhatsApp everywhere except on E2E-encryption.

That's the difference IMO.
> A school is a public institution. How speech laws apply to public institution is not some crazy out there idea. It is well established.

Free speech laws apply differently in school. They're not exactly the same as other public institutions, as SCOTUS has ruled numerous times.

Bethel v. Fraser[0] is an example where the Court ruled pretty clearly that the school can go as far as to prohibit sexual innuendo, it doesn't even have to be obscene or vulgar.

You implicitly (and are not alone in this) place negative value on the “wrong people” or even on other people in general having more, even if you are no worse off. It stems from the human brain being very perceptive of hierarchy and wanting to move up the totem pole by any means necessary.
You're correct: it wasn't their friend, it was something they read.

It does sound like they're making a claim to efficacy. It says "one by one managed to turn them away". That's the part I'm asking for clarification on.
I wonder how many of the functionaries who take a private rant of a 14 year old seriously are on some form of medication.

In open source projects the administrative parts are increasingly staffed by people who appear mentally unbalanced. Some of them are taking tranquilizers because they feel "harmed" everywhere and by everyone.

As a society, we need to have a conversation if we want to be governed by people with mental issues.
People are great at some things that computers suck and computers are great at some things that human suck.

Machines doing horrible mistakes that no conscious person would ever do is problematic because we don’t have reliable error correction methods for that kind of mistakes.

Completely the opposite. It's the difference between a non-medical doctor diagnosing someones medical condition and telling them to go see a real doctor. Sometimes people don't know when to go see a doctor and need some help knowing when they should go. Their advice was completely appropriate given the situation.
