> The former is with respect to the inertial frame of the faller(s), the latter seemingly with respect to the inertial frame of some shared gravitational field.

Fair, and I'm not sure I follow that, either. I'm not sure how an entire field can really have a reference frame in the first place.

> though at the moment I only get it as a "negative" argument: we are being accelerated upwards/outwards with respect to the field's reference frame, because otherwise we would be moving along our natural inertial path.

That pretty succinctly captures my understanding.

> It is still a bit puzzling that if the ground disappears we appear to accelerate, whereas my current reading of what you wrote seems to imply that we would immediately return to our "inertial path".

Yes, that's the sticky bit! I think "appear" is load-bearing here, because what are you measuring relative to? The surface of the Earth is not an inertial reference frame (according to general relativity, it's accelerating!).

It might be easier to think about if we use centrifugal force -- the fictitious force you feel when being swung in a circle from some central point. From an inertial reference frame, you have some velocity in the tangential direction, and a rope (say) is pulling on you in the radial direction. This force accumulates with the existing velocity over time to produce a circular path.

From your perspective, however, you feel a force pushing you outwards, which is resisted by the rope you're attached to. You would feel that, if the rope was cut, you'd be "pulled" out into space (radially away). But this is because you're not aware of -- you don't sense -- the tangential velocity you possess, because it's canceled by the choice of a frame that's moving with you.

The change to an inertial frame introduces an extra velocity term, and this in turn allows us to replace the unattributable outward pull of the centrifugal force with a force merely attributed to the tension of the rope you're attached to. (In fact, this might be a good intuition for what an "inertial frame" even is: it's a frame in which all forces are equal and opposite to other forces. Gravity and the centrifugal force are unbalanced in this sense.)

The gravitational field (curvature of spacetime) plays the same role that the hidden velocity does. In an Earth surface frame, the feeling of being pulled "down" is attributed vaguely to the fact that there's a bunch of mass "down there". In an inertial frame, the feeling of being pulled "down" is attributed to the ground pushing "up" at you.

In both scenarios, we can find a frame involving an extra term that lets us redescribe the phenomenon we observe in terms of forces attributable to physical entities.

The "Fictitious forces" Wikipedia page has some pretty good schematic animations for the centrifugal force, FWIW.

This is not true for Teslas, and I've tested it (in a safe environment) in my own. It uses vision, as well as radar, to detect obstacles, and will brake from highway speeds to zero when there is a car stopped ahead.

> It's not a lot of money if that's your household income and you have kids.

Its about 50% above median family income in California for a family of four, and most of those families of four aren’t getting by with just a single worker.

> That leaves you about 3000 for groceries, gas, medical expenses, school related expenses, recreation, clothing, and bunch of other expenses for say a family of 3-4. That's not a lot of money tbh if you want to save anything at all.

Yeah, it is. I mean, its not “eat out every day” money, but its quite comfortable.

> Sure 150k is a great salary if you're fresh out of college and share an apartment with other people

150K is almost the median household income of households headed by a Ph.D. holder (not the single personal income of someone who just graduated with a Ph.D., but the median of all households headed by a Ph.D. holder.)

> And it isn't a remote part of CA salary either. This is a salary paid in big cities that are too freakin expensive to stay in.

Then don’t stay in the big city; Sure, SF the Bay Area core cities are quite expensive, but you can drop to a much lower CoL within a reasonable commute distance, either within the 9-county Bay Area or adjacent, such as southwestern Solano County; that’s how plenty of people with families get by making far less than gamedev salaries working outside tech in core Bay Area cities.

another anecdote: an acquaintance let a friend borrow their Tesla X plaid (or similar, I think this was before plaid). Upon leaving their subdivision the "friend" immediately totaled the X by launching it into a drainage ditch in Florida. I've never driven a Tesla X or any car with this much power. I am surprised by how someone can get into so much trouble in 550 feet - but clearly people are surprised and don't let up on the accelerator.
Good for you.

It's weird that the NTSB drove another Tesla car on the same road and concluded that because autopilot wasn't available for their car it couldn't have been on in the crash.

Aren't vehicle logs a thing? What if there was a bug which mistakenly turned it on in the original car? What if there was a software update sometime between the crash and the investigation which changed the behavior? The article even says that the investigators recovered the damaged "black box", but a month later we have no details about it?

I've worked in the Games industry since 1997. I got my first year-long job fresh out of high school in QA at EA in Canada, worked summers over the following years while getting my degrees, transitioned to a programming role after university, and ultimately moved to the US in 2013 for work in games at one of the big tech companies.

1997-2003 - QA @ EA, ~$9-12 an hour (CAD), 1.5x for hours 40-48, 2x > 48 hours. We worked a lot of 90 hour weeks, and I had no life outside of work, so I had a lot of spare cash.

2003-2008 - Game Dev in Eastern Canada. Started at 40k a year, ended at 62k a year (CAD).

2008-2013 - Game Dev in Western Canada, started at 80k a year, ended at 100k per year (CAD). Got promoted to "senior" in 2010 and managed a team of 6 programmers during my last year and a half prior to leaving.

2013-present - Moved to the United States at a big tech company that does games. Took a role-demotion to be a non-senior IC for a wage-promotion of 135k a year USD. Presently have a similar role to the one I left in Canada (albeit a much larger team) and make >350k USD a year.

It's awful that newspapers have started injecting opinions like that into stories. For instance, when there's a protest, they'll sometimes point out that the protestors' claims are wrong. It used to be that they just quoted what they were saying at left it to the reader to judge but now they do this patronizing lecturing. "Hey reader, it's important that you know who's the goodies and who's the baddies. Trust us to tell you because we're journalists, the fountain of truth and rightness.".

Perhaps a side-effect of the same delusion that can fuel the sunk cost fallacy. Once you have paid $10,000 for full self-driving, you have to tell yourself it was worth it and it is going to be great, and some kind of halo effect bleeds into enjoyment of the car?

This is at least part of how it works when people make religious donations for promise of material reward in situations like prosperity preaching, or when they are led to believe their donation will cure a grave illness in the family.

The connections to prosperity preaching go even further as FSD was sold as the feature that would make Teslas the first ever appreciating mass-market car, bringing in great fortunes for the owners who had enough faith (claims with a strong indication of a 10-20X return on the FSD investment by the time the robotaxi network was to go online in 2020). I may be wrong on this, but I think the income from it is also tax-shielded like a church, as long as they never deliver it never gets recognized and then never gets taxed.

The head Pastor/Technoking can then put the $10,000 payments into Dogecoin investments if he wants, though Tesla would have to pay taxes on any realized gains there.

> At some point the declining demand for labor and the growing costs of things will come to a head. The current system will not work.

Declining demand for labor goes hand in hand with lower production costs (cheaper labor overseas and automation). That means lower costs of things, not higher. And if the costs of things were higher than what people could afford due to being underemployed, the demand drops, which puts even more negative pressure on prices.
I'm not sure why you think I was defining 'money is value','value is money' or some other absolute truth. I did not say such a thing.

Money does represent value of some kind, right? Whether that's time, labor, or [fill-in-the-blank]. It's a tool to represent generic value.

It's similar to the past 2-3 years in television advertisements, where it's also tiresome how one single idea gets copied and copied and copied by every other advertiser. In particular, in the spirit of "inclusiveness", and further driven by BLM, black people are now the default people shown in practically every ad. If aliens were to evaluate the earth based on TV ads, they'd conclude that the USA is about 60% black. Even State Farm insurance has replaced the white Jake character with a new black one (why did Jake have to be replaced? why not simply add a character?). It has become absurd.

Not to knock the motivation, but I am knocking the sheep-like following of one advertiser after the others. For ostensibly creative people, they seem to have very few original ideas among them.
Thank you for actually putting an explanation forward. One day, I hope to own a business and want to treat all my employees with dignity and respect.

From a company perspective, DW is an implementation detail for the utility it provides, which is analysis and reporting. These activities have such different lifecycles, accountabilities, and controls, to operational data stewardship, that the pattern of a BI team operating independently from the corporate IT unit may arise by governance pressures alone. Differences in storage architecture and data schema aren't considered when it comes to carving up the org chart, but they're certainly enabled by the consequences: in my experience of large-to-very-large enterprises it's common for BI teams to take practically vertical control of their entire stack, from the racks to the apps (or in public clouds, one or more separated accounts), and all the infrastructure in between, a classic sighting of Conway's law in action.

More than once I've pointed at such teams as an explainer when pitching a service-team approach to standing up a new application. (Caveat, lest it backfire if you try the same, check who you're talking to first; they're not always fans of "the BI gang")

No, it was just a regular office. And no, they had no special benefits nor special handicaps because of their drug use. They never complained or requested any sort of special treatment. If anything, they were kind of ashamed for it, but I never brought the subject up.

It’s a puppet show who’s target market is children under the age of five. By most objective standards thats the “youth of a nation”.

As someone that grew up watching the show, with very fond memories, it does pain me to see what it has become. It’s not just about the show dumbing itself down. If someone wants to have grown up conversation about that then I’m game.

But if they’re afraid that any such conversation might lead to criticism, of other related or unrelated left wing political movements, well sucks to be them. These changes don’t happen in a vacuum and any frank discussion has to at least acknowledge them. Or hey let’s just flag conversations with don’t like and pretend they don’t exist.

But you can’t possibly make a work like “Gravity’s Rainbow” or “infinite Jest” into a movie. Hell, most adaptions of Hemingway are awful (original “Old Man and the Sea” not withstanding) because literature is not easily adapted to other mediums.

Lots of non-literary fiction, like “Game of Thrones” translates well and having read the books and watched the show I’d probably agree with your assessment here - optimize for time. But real literature is only good as literature.

Makes it easier to seed resentment and division. There's a notable cohort of ideologically-possessed individuals whose mission in life seems to be flatly denying the existence of meritocracy. If everyone is as smart as the smartest people in the world (and we'll repeat this until it's accepted as true), then some injustice logically must be taking place. Our ideology just so happens to have a solution to address this, so you should give us power. It's a pattern that's been playing out for a while now.
