I always thought this. There seem to be issues with a few things which the body has problems eliminating (heavy metals, new synthetic chemicals not found in nature, etc) Why not give your body a break by diluting all that a liter per month of blood at a time. I don’t imagine there would be a huge effect, but I do imagine a nonzero effect.
The question is: Of Tesla miles driven, Autopilot vs human, similar driving conditions, etc....how do the accident rates compare?

Certainty there are non-AP accidents? There certainly could be less deaths, but for how many miles driven?

I'm not defending Tesla, or AI. This is a simple and basic statistics question.
So basically what you are saying is that you drew your conclusion back then - who knows based on what data - and you are so set in your ways, there’s nothing that will change your mind.

Sounds like a super healthy way to approach life.

What makes it especially nice is that it doesn't reaload all the tabs at restart. Rather it waits until you switch to an old tab before it restores its state. This means you start up much faster and you're not consuming gobs of resources either.
I love that China is doing so well in space. I love that China has pulled millions out of poverty with an incredible economic uprising. However I'm terrified of the CCP. I'm terrified of the monitoring and suppression of dissenting views. I don't trust that they won't try to impose their influence on the rest of the world, and I'm not super happy about how they treat their own people. So news like this stirs very mixed emotions.
I would like to think this depends on jurisdiction. However, no jurisdiction should permit non human betaware on public roads under the disguise of self regulation.
It would override command+A for select all.

You could rebind select if you wanted, I wouldn't really suggest doing that though. The command key sends the same key-code as the windows key, but it's not on the same place on the keyboard.

If you're on a Mac keyboard, the muscle memory should map to Option+a. Which by default types å.

If you're using a PC keyboard with your Mac, and you're not already used to it… you might want to look at 'System Preferences > Keyboard > Modifier Keys...' so that your setup either:

1. Puts the modifier keys where they are on Mac keyboards, by setting Option->Command, and Command->Option.

2. Puts most shortcuts where they are on PC keyboards, by setting Control->Command.
Most cars have AI technology to prevent crashes. What differentiates tesla is that they have technology that enables the driver to stop paying attention. Automatic braking has likely saved lives, but in this dimension it isn't clear that tesla has gone above and beyond other auto-makers. Enabling drivers to stop paying attention endangers them, and it is only in this dimension that tesla is clearly unique.
CNBC has been producing some really good content, very pleased the YT algo served it up for me.

From 1947 to 1957 US media was filled with the idea that all progress in the Soviet Union was from stealing US innovations. Particularly the 1949 A-bomb, but other things as well.

Then the Soviet Union launched Sputnik. Then they put a dog in space. Then they put a man in space. And the narrative changed.

> People who want to stop Tesla from continuing on the basis of this crash might not understand how software is developed.

Most software, even in places adhering to the least validation and testing-heavy agile processes, isn’t developed in a “move fast and murder people with defective products” approach.
Look all the copy comments aside, the future of the human race is getting off this rock we live on. Congratulations on the success of this mission. It moves all of humanity forward.
> What motivation will Americans have to fight and die for Taiwan?

Well if the Yanks are smart, the second it becomes a US state you strongly encourage two way migration so there are a bunch of square-jawed, grass-fed, All American kids living there that the US press can get exited about. Jack, Diane, and Tyrone getting shot at by the PLA is going to be a Big Fucking Deal.

Heck, if I was Taiwan I’d stop spending money on defence and just start spending money giving free university tuition to Americans.
Taiwanese people respond in polls that they see themselves as Taiwanese, not Chinese.

It is not like even you are open all US research to one country in an instant, they would be able to build their own next decade.

China did a really good job figuring out the know-hows and had their domestic team geared up for the job. That is nothing to be dismissed, like tired 'China can't do shit without stealing our technology' circlejerks would like to indicate.
Truth! Fuck that guy and all the “VC” that follows. Shit bags, all of them!

Oh. If the creator is reading: super cool to show the static type errors in code blocks. You might want to check out shiki-twoslash, which uses the same tooling in VSCode for syntax highlighting and TS integration.
All things considered, 90 days is pretty good for how harsh of an environment Mars can be.

Also, there are dozens of ways to make the mission last longer but no ways of accomplishing that without adding more weight.
That's funny. The thousand talents program is about attracting talents globally. Now who are you to say that those talents are 'yours' not 'theirs'? How about those talents the US attracted before because 'everyone likes the freedom here'? Are those not stolen simply because the US did it under a different political banner?
I don't have a problem with what Apple did, they should be able to fire anyone for any reason without explanation at any time. Apple took the easy way out to avoid more short term damage, and that was their decision to make.

> because the law leaves lots of room for things to happen inside its boundaries.

Then we are not a nation of laws, because the room is there for a reason. Judges and juries are there for a reason, to decide how much room is necessary as we cannot police thought, and we shouldn't try.

> And again, the original point is not about good or bad, but that this is not new. You got excluded in corporate places for the wrong thoughts (if you shared them too loudly) before people went on and on about "safe spaces". It just was different things. And as such I find complaints about them being some new horrible thing unconvincing.

Why are you fine with lgbtq being excluded from jobs? You can't have it both ways, two wrongs don't make a right. The law should be the bar, the only bar, not mob anger.
I think the points that have been raised in this thread are all quite valid.

Just to add another: I wonder if Tesla's driver assistance systems has been designed to minimise false-positives in comparison with those of other manufacturers. When driving a friend's Subaru on a road trip a while ago we all commented on the lane-keeping alarm being overzealous, and ended up disabling it altogether to shut it up (this is on somewhat narrow b-roads). I've read of similar complaints from automotive journalists regarding various other manufacturers. In comparison, I've barely ever experienced false positives from the model 3's lane-keeping assist, even on similar roads -- maybe once or twice ever.

Minimising false-positives is important for system efficacy, as otherwise people will simply disable it. But I do wonder if this comes at the expense of increasing the chance for false-negatives, which are far more dangerous. Is trading 100 false alarms for a single missed obstacle worth it? I'm not sure.
Facebook forcibly adds people to Israel supporting page
A lot of friends and public speakers complain finding themselves lately liking a israel supporting page, even though they're Muslims and are against what the page preaches. In addition to censoring posts with #AlAqsa #zionism it feels like social media has become a place of double standards and outright propaganda.
China has successfully landed on Mars [Updated]
Same for China enable someone who is in charge of the mission to do whatever it is that person does...

Can we stop for a moment to label anything from China with political statement?...

Things are built by people, not some random business man...
Assuming the Zhurong Mars rover can be successfully released in the next few days, China will become the second country in the world with a working rover on Mars.
where is nhtsa? why are they still allowed to test this on public roadways with consumers operating it?
Um.. why isn't this being talked about more? I remember the discussions were very lively everywhere from Youtube to HN and Reddit when India was attempting to land its probe on the moon.

A rover on Mars is a huge thing! Why are discussions relatively tame now?
The cycle also goes hand-in-hand with languages and frameworks. I use VSCode for Ruby on Rails editing, but I don't need to. With TypeScript, however, it's a huge win -- just as IDEA or Eclipse were essential for Java, back in the day.
Those were the days-- fast integers and slow floats!
Perhaps our reality is just the product of this process generated by hyperintelligent beings.
Similar span for those in the UK I was hearing. There strategy, from what I understand, was mainly get the 1st dose in most of the population and move onto the second dose. I believe those in high risk groups may have been prioritized, but I'm not sure. (just what I am remembering from a side conversation on a zoom call with a colleague in the UK)
Microsoft has embraced server-oriented Linux initiatives, but they abstain to participate on Linux desktop and Linux gaming related initiatives.

I do not expect to see Office for Linux, a proper release of Minecraft for Linux with feature parity with Windows, etc. I also do not expect to see Xamarin development on Linux. I do not expect to see a proper release of Skype on Linux either. The only exception to this trend is VS code.

Edge for Linux doesn't bring anything new to the Linux desktop. There are already plenty of browsers such as Firefox and Chrome and others.

And I am deeply thankful that Microsoft won't buy Discord. Discord works very well on Linux and I hope it stays that way.
> Are those not stolen

stealing is involuntary on the part of the entity being stolen from.

Are those talents being enslaved to produce the IP for the US?
Small companies that go bust have their assets acquired. That includes patents.

Corporate parent trolls eat them up and sue.

There are publicly traded companies whose sole means of profit is patent law suits.
This is a definition of "business friendly" that I can support!
Do you really believe China has enough nukes to take out most of the USA's infrastructure? Fab facilities would be waaaay down the list of targets.

China's goal has been to maintain a nuclear deterrent (make it not worthwhile to strike China) rather than an offensive capability.

if nukes flew then China would likely fragment into many separate countries: its centralized command structure would be destroyed and local politics would be the rule. Look at China's history to see its future after a nuclear war:

China Has Landed on Mars
The problem is that some of those impressions you got about China are manufactured as part of the politics. Things can't be so torn, can they? Now it's your job to figure out which ones are manufactured and which ones are not.
Conversely, I’m on several slacks, and I’ve only ever used the same account on all of them. One slack app and one slack account works for all of them.

I do hate the way that Discord forces me to use the same account and same profile on all the discord servers I connect to through the client. I could connect to different ones with different accounts on different web browsers, but that’s a royal pain.

I guess I care more about the different communities I connect to through Discord, and I want to have more unique profiles for each of them, whereas just the one profile works for all the slacks that I am connected to.
I'm not American so I don't really have a horse in that race. But you are comparing how civilians treat each other to how the government treats civilians. To me this is apples and oranges.
They moved most factories from the west, not build initially. I am from other Siberian city known for moved factories from western cities during the war.
So % of sold cars that end up in fatal crashes:

Tesla: 0.0322% (or 1 in about 3100 cars sold)

Ford: 0.8836% (or 1 in about 114 cars sold)

Its late for me, so check my math, but I think it’s right.
Put your statement in some minimal check. The IP theft you are referring are just random business patent whose sole purpose is to prevent market competition...

If you think a Mars Rover can be copied, well, you better copy one yourself...
It's basically cause of mobile. Simple tools often involve using files. Using plain text files too. I don't think the pendulum will swing back the same. Files are a bad abstraction. Databases via HTTP APIs are far more reliable for using between all our devices. Syncing files without something like Git is very painful and for Git to be used the user themselves need to be able to handle the diff themselves correctly. And they'd need to do this all on Mobile. It basically kills plain files for anyone except the most advanced users and requires very complicated apps (e.g. the wonderful WorkingCopy on iOS). The problem yet to be solved for normal users is how do you take advantage of that convenience while still letting users own their data?

There are some attempts but basically at the end of the day it'll require more support from the various operating systems (mainly mobile). There needs to be some underlying open data format which can be synced easily that recreates a database locally that apps can query directly and optionally some way to proxy those requests to a central service when the device can't/shouldn't have direct access to that database (lack of storage, lack of compute to run the database or app, lack of privilege's to have possible direct access all of the data.)

If you can't solve encryption, syncing, and ability to easily use the same rich data between devices and operating systems you won't reverse the trends to move everything to these fancy tools which almost all end up being centralized and requiring the user to be online regularly even for data which only their own devices would ever be using.
I’d go further; car manufacturers shouldn’t be allowed to self regulate, period.

I mean, advanced tech all look similar. See how closely resembled all the 5th gen stealth fighter.

If resemblance is a proof of copying, then we probably should point to all the other stuffs than advanced space technology.

I don't know how to bridge the gap here. I think I understand what you're saying. You're saying it's not okay because society has said it isn't. You agree with that.

The question is, why do you agree with that? Is it because society says so, or are you deriving that belief based on some principles. If so, what?

What is the underlying fundamental reason you believe it's not okay. I get the sense you think it's not okay to experiment on them, but I don't understand why you believe that. I don't believe you think that because other people think that in a democratic society. I get the sense that if society changed its mind and legalized it, I think you would still say it's not right. You'd go along with it, but you'd believe it is wrong.

Fair disclosure: I think it's wrong too. I am not disagreeing with your opinion, but I'm digging for the explanation you believe it. I think I know why I also believe it, but I don't want to explain why I do, because I think you're on to something, but you have to discover it within yourself.

Not sure why would you go and make a statement about me without any evidence (And btw yes to all your questions). Your point would be stronger if you don't target a person and maybe talk about the average consumer. My point exactly that a large chuck of the population don't follow CDC guidelines, if they did we collectively would be a healthier nation.
1) You're illustrating my point - you didn't have a first test, and are assuming it was Covid. It probably wasn't.

2) We don't "expect immunity to only last about 12 months". It's been about 12 months since the first cases were confirmed, so that's as far as we can say.
The USA must defend Taiwan even at the risk of nuclear war. The dollars position in the world allows the USA to run its current accounting. Allowing China to take Taiwan destroys the economy and the position of the USA in the world. That being said I feel that Taiwan is a vibrant democracy that is worth defending, and yes I did my time as a solider and understand the horrors of it.
Indeed. On the other hand, with classic bloodletting, you're also losing red and white blood cells, unlike the plasma-only technique, which preserves them.
Or an argument for doing it right. It's got a query language that looks a bit like SQL, just... not SQL. It's got an ugly but responsive UI. It's easy to over-customize.

The real problem is that it gets over-customized, and as with all databases, schema is forever, so after enough years of using it you have: ugly remnants of how you used to do things mixed with the ugly new things you're doing, and a devops team dedicated to maintaining and further over-over-customizing your JIRA instance.
Good, are those who joined the thousand talents program the property of the US?

If you insist on the 'involuntary' part, well, all of you stole paper from China.
Blood donation and blood letting have other effects and confounding factors. You're supposed to be healthy to donate blood regularly, so right there you have an explanation for the observed longevity correlate. But it would also have other effects like reducing iron: people argue many men have too much iron later in life, while other donators like women may have too little, so that's mucking up your net effect.

Filtering blood, or diluting with saline, avoids these issues and helps get at the question of inflammatory & aging factors vs youthful factors.
No. Why would I do that?

I'm not a factory line worker were my output is correlated to the number of hours I spend at work.

I'm paid because I add value, how and at which times I add such value is mostly up to me.

Yes, there are deadlines and incidents, there's coordination with others, but if I'm available at weird hours when really needed (i.e. value again), I expect freedom to choose when I do what's needed and take downtime even if it's the middle of a typical workday.
Before the Great Lockdown, that would result in the friends, family, and coworkers of the disappeared person contacting police and then media to find them.
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood your meaning when you wrote "That pretty much works now?" — I thought it was a question as to whether a more traditional Prom architecture could do it, but I see now you're just saying you already have this set up.
That just hasn’t been my experience. Most industries have a sense of right and wrong. That sense is certainly informed by market dynamics, but it’s still there.

It’s also often propagated by big players who are thinking long term. In practice it tends to favors insiders over disrupters.

Think Facebook suddenly caring about consumer privacy.

But that doesn’t mean it’s fake. Many people at Facebook honestly do care about consumer privacy.
It is hard to separate China from such statements because China and its people are tightly coupled to the government. Not like the United States.
Presumably if they went above and beyond normal local zoning restrictions with a historic district they care more than your average American.

And presumably if you could make a bunch of Americans magically consider massive redevelopment on that scale, it would be more fruitful to do it in a place closer in where you don't have to spend billions of dollars on transportation infrastructure, or the other billions of dollars establishing services like water supply, a grid with adequate capacity, schools, fire, police, medical services, etc. Sidewalk Labs wanted to be in the middle of the action on the Toronto waterfront, not in the undeveloped boonies.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It's good to know what all others think about our product. As you mentioned though, the final decision will be made by me and my co-founder.
SpaceX is no doubt cool. Nonetheless we're discussing China landing its first rover on a planet NASA's been flying a helicopter around for the last month. I mean, both are great accomplishments, but if you have to treat it as a competition and pick a winner...
