The other advantage is coordination and self driving. You could pretty much get in the charging lane, go to sleep and wake up in chicago. The whiskers can provide steering and other vehicle coordination if you think of them as power + data.
There's also a phone with Hasselblad branded camera:

Which is extra silly since 1) Hasselblad is a specialist for medium format cameras making a tiny sensor phone camera and 2) they don't and never made their own lenses (they get Zeiss lenses).
My impression is that most teams have high enough natural attrition that it doesn't really matter and some teams even seem completely immune to any sort of real change, even if they do extremely poorly on their deliverables. I know a few teams that other teams actively avoid working with, even preferring to reinvent some of their solutions, yet, more or less the same people have been working on these underperforming teams for several years.
I like Andrej from his PhD research days and awesome blog posts but this is a series of disasters in the making, that is until FTC steps in after more people die from “self-driving” accidents under interesting and unexpected circumstances.

The whole vision vs. LIDAR stuff is a distraction as long as Tesla “AI” doesn’t have common sense.

It literally doesn’t know what it’s doing, and the tail of edge cases to "fit" the models is infinitely long. ANNs are fundamentally backwards looking and cannot adapt to unforeseen or even slightly unusual combination of circumstances. It will go fine for n miles and will dramatically fail at mile n+1 where a new situation requires understanding of ones surroundings, and n is arbitrary number.

It would be more honest to show the cases where it missed, thankfully there is no lack of them in “FSD beta“ videos on YouTube.
Do you also believe that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is just a group of people who are for the ethical treatment of animals? Are you unaware they have literally funded terrorism? Were you never taught not to judge a book by its cover?

You missed the part of the comment, "custom runtime with jlink".

I never been into US, plus the restrictions apply to any tech produced in US, regardless of the programming language.

Thankfully, by having such laws, US made us create other standards as well.

I also don't want to make it into a Java vs Go thing, rather make the point that many dismiss Java without really knowing what is around during the last 26 years on the ecosystem.

It appears everyone just learns the basics and then complains from there.

Not targeted at you, as you obviously got my point.

On the other hand, kubernetes and docker are all about runtime deployment complexity. It feels like using Websphere 5 all over again, with containers == EAR, thankfully so far I managed to stay mostly away from them.
Any idea where a guy can score The Librarian these days? Wikipedia is cool and all, but it's lacking a certain... finesse.

On a more serious note, I think these are different metaverses. Ours is pretty much locked in VR as far as I can tell, and Apple is building an overlay on zeroth-order reality, aka AR. Arguably harder and more powerful if done properly. Which I'm sure it won't be.

:P
idk why you're invoking "career public servants" here except as some kind of ideological shibboleth; much of the money spent here in Australia (YMMV, but I would imagine this is true in much of the world) goes to outsourced service providers to "gatekeep poor people from the services they need".
the confusion in this thread is that windy, as written, could mean there's lots of wind (said "win-dee") or lots of bends (or "winds", said "whine-dee"). "winding" is less ambiguous
The problem is, as usual, one of power imbalance. Employers -- especially those in industries where unions and collective bargaining is unusual -- tend to have a lot more power in the relationship than their employees do, so they get to dictate terms, at least up until the point that labor willing to accept those terms becomes scarce.

I think we can agree that if every software company decided that they were going to be a full-time pairing shop, that'd be a bad thing. In the same way, I don't think it'd be too much of a stretch to also suggest that it'd be bad if all employers decided that their workers had to be butts-in-seats 40 hours (or more) per week, no exceptions.
I'm sorry, I should have pointed out that I work with LEDs that are about 1000-1000000 stronger than you, so power dissipation from a linear regulator is significant.

"As few as five raw beans or a single undercooked kidney bean can cause severe nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pains."

That's nuts, though I don't understand why undercooked beans would be worse than raw beans, and not the other way round. Maybe the two claims are from different sources.
I don't see how the "The government-subsidized billionaire out-competes the small player" scenario differs from "Imagine satoshi decides the billionaire's coffee shop is great and gifts them 5,000 BTC from his stash of 1 million."

Even if we assume fiat currency is a mechanism to disadvantage individuals through inflation and unfair fiat distribution, I think it's not proven that cryptocurrencies solve those problems. Cryptocurrencies don't change the fact that in a system where wealth is unevenly distributed, the wealthy can wield outsized power. They merely change who's wielding the power.

And new BTC is continuously being printed; miners generate new coins with every solved block. That process continues through the year 2140.
It should be kept in mind that the Ruby ecosystem has quite a bit of depth to it and there are solutions that have been around for quite some time to make it useful in places you wouldn't ordinarily think to. The performance issue has many angles to it.

There are lots of different ways to extend Ruby with code in other languages such as C or Rust, there's DragonRuby if you wanna make games, you can run Ruby on the JVM, JRuby and nowadays TruffleRuby, there's even a slimmed-down Ruby suitable for use in embedded contexts, mruby, which is what I replaced all of my Crystal code with. (if you go this route, the best way I've found is to compile your own mruby with whatever you want in it, and put a #!/path/to/mruby shebang at the top of your scripts. Compile if you need even more perf, I found JITted mruby to be more than sufficient.)

Crystal isn't a bad language, but the only thing it shares with Ruby is a small subset of syntax. It's sorely lacking in maturity and in libraries and tools. It's unfortunate because Crystal is an idea worth exploring, but its proximity to Ruby means people will always position it against Ruby, and it will always fall short. And with types now in Ruby that's one less reason to pick Crystal over Ruby.
Win10 is perfectly fine on HDDs. You just have to install Linux on the bare metal, and create a Win10 VM leaving at least 3GB of RAM to the Linux caches.

This is faster than W10 on bare metal with SSD and the same physical amount of RAM.

I do not think that the majority of crypto "investors" at present grasp that in the slightest. They believe, fervently, in returns.
It's worse with lawyers, in that mistakes they make can go unnoticed for years or forever, so bad lawyers can still bring in lots of money to the company that provides them to you. Or so I think.

And the same with doctors, unfortunately, when they don't meet the person they treated again, when there's no follow up if it worked or not.

Plumbers, though, are different, in that then there's more feedback: does the water pipe still leak, or not? So they need to do something that actually works.
It is versioned. There is git —-version. If your scripts break with the new version, don’t upgrade.
That's where my mind immediately goes when I hear 'metaverse' too
I suspect there is a general 'content ecosystem' where these different 'organisms' each contribute their part to the ecology. From my--not particularly expert--view teenagers aren't specifically the ones who blow things up, they're more like the mooks who act as megaphones for the general drama. There's another clade of user who do the actual stirring up of drama and they largely seem to be not especially successful members of some creative field like acting, stand-up, art, etc. Definitely careers that attract personality types who highly value approval/adulation.

There's another clade of credentialed or 'pedigreed' professionals, such as activist or non-profit people, 'community management' people, professors, journalists, etc. who seem to have some function in legitimizing and mainstreaming the drama of the day, possibly creating rationalizations for why it's good along the way.

I'm sure Twitter, internally, is already aware of these dynamics. But it would probably help the sociology of it out a lot if that information was more well known.
Being very far away from a (private) high school education--I could probably go through many individual courses and draw a line through them for not much loss, at least the way they're typically taught--so it does seem as if many high school curricula would benefit from a "practical track." On the other hand, there are a bunch of courses that students going on to college will benefit from. Which basically comes dowsn to whether "trade schools" should be a bigger component of high school.
Hmmm, it states 1:1.9 and 19. Which would mean an apparent aperture of 10mm. But it doesn't look that large from the picture. What gives?

> But the performance relies on the aggressive specialization which depends on multiple dispatch.

This is not a necessity, but an implementation choice. "Specialization" is an unnecessary step when everything is explicit from the beginning. I'm not talking on philosophical grounds, but thinking on concrete examples of jit systems which are really fast but have nothing to do with multiple dispatch (for example luajit).

> Without the incredible polymorphism and genericity, there's really nothing at all left of Julia.

If "matlab with fast loops" is "nothing" to you, sure. As a user of Julia, this is the killer feature for me. The rest I see as unnecessary complexity and mumbo-jumbo. But there's nothing wrong that each user has different favorite parts of the language!
Maybe referring to Ripcord. I haven't used for Slack though, I don't know what Slack's position is on third-party clients - using them with Discord is liable to get you banned.
Yeah, that's not how that works, sorry.

You don't have to "own" tech in order to infringe a patent. Making a product that includes the technology protected by the patent, or selling it without there being a license (eg you buy it offshore where they're not covered by a particular patent, but you sell it where there is a patent covering that tech).

None of that matters in USA, as the threat of a lawsuit is threat of massive costs; ostensibly it doesn't matter that the court would award costs of a few $thousand against you if the lawyers to get you through the case cost $100,000s.

This is my personal opinion and not legal advice.
Unfortunately, that is incorrect understanding. In the context of stuff like this, "untrusted code" can be so many different things, it isn't just being able to run an executable... The issue with these vulnerabilities is the processor "pre-runs/prefetches" certain things for performance, which would likely be run in the future, so that it has those results cached, or to increase the amount of instructions in a CPU cycle. The issue is that many of these things aren't direct executable code, but more like access patterns.

For example, a speculative execution vulnerability might exist when there is a string of data in memory that has a memcp pattern, with memory addresses that are valid. To speed up the execution of programs, the processor might proactively read the memory from that memcp pattern because it is sending a command to the memory controller already.

Many of the mitigation techniques are to flush the caches/buffers and be careful about memory reads, which are the precise things that actually take the performance hits. And one of the problems is since they are access patterns, the vulnerabilities can be the html renderer compiled with an application, an SVG rendering library or a mail client.

For example, lets say there are mitigations built into the JS library... if you build a specifically crafted SVG, you could create similar access patterns to get around it. Its a huge cat and mouse game if there aren't OS protections and it only takes a single app to lose your secrets stored in memory.
Why not? We do it safely in busy urban areas already. As for changing lanes, even the most basic autopilots could solve the lane changing problem. Also, making connection can help steer the car and coordinate with other cars in the charging lane.
My first point was less of a "200K/year" and more of a "whatever the market dictates the value of their skills would be" vs "a tiered set scale". Basically, do you think that Bama should be able to drop 2 million a year in player salaries while West Nowhere can only offer partial coverage scholarships.

And the under the table money is real, but less secret bags of cash left in their dorm and more "the AD bought a new car but realized he doesn't like the interior, do you want it?" IDK where you went to college, but several high profile programs lost championships and got sanctions for creative ways they "recruited" players. The ruling opens up more levers for schools to use to funnel goods and services towards players, even if they can't give them actually currency.
Out of curiosity and for possible discussion, do you have any hard and fast methods for approaching a medium-to-large unfamiliar codebase?

In the past, I've tried looking in the past of the repo and trying to make maps of the dependencies between different files over time, to better understand which classes or types are the most widespread. In dynamic languages, I really don't know how I'd start, I'd probably just see how it's invoked and start depth-first from there.
In normal wild cats only kittens meow. Domesticated cats will only meow when they are trying to communicate with humans.

Adult domesticated cats will communicate with other cats in many ways:

- with smell, your cat spraying everything is just marking its territory

- hissing or growling, even very small very small cats can be very good at deterring much bigger cats

- when female cats are in heat they make a lot of noise but i don't think that does qualify as meowing

- most cat communication is non-verbal, we probably don't understand much of it

If have listened to several of these sound recordings and they only sample a tiny fraction of cat communications.
Hmm. I wonder if they'll do one with a lidar sensor at somepoint.
It's all in the details of how it actually happens. "Months to adapt" is fine, but if the objective is to get rid of 6% of the employees that can be "made to happen" in various under-handed ways.

The horror stories here are about folks who were doing just fine for months and months, but then end up with a new manager or their manager has a sudden change of mood, and wham, performance improvement plan.

No one likes to be blindsided. I wish more companies would take an honest approach and come up with mutually beneficial exit-plans with employees that aren't a good fit. I suppose that's not feasible in a company of such size and with such growth?

Transact? I think you mean stab them.
The thing that's bothering me about this argument (and many like it) is that it assumes that we're calling for a complete end to office life. We're not. We just want more flexibility, and many of us would still like to come into an office once, twice, thrice, or even four times a week. And even for those of us (like myself) who would rather not go to an office at all, we don't have a problem with people who do want to spend time in an office. There's nothing stopping companies from offering office space to employees who want it. We just don't want it to be required of everyone, as it so often was pre-pandemic.
Should add (2009)
Amazon does it in dollars. Employees have a target comp figure in dollars, the annual stock refreshers are based on the price of the stock at that time, so if you got 100 units one year, and the stock doubles, all things being equal, you would only get 50 units the next year at refresh time.

In practice this means you can make good money off your hiring grant if price keeps going up, but you will also see your total comp hit a cliff / drop after a few years, since while stock going up is usually good, in Amazon's eyes, you've been lucky to be making more than your target comp those years and they aren't going to keep giving you the same amount of units if those units are worth more.
Not any more than I pay corporate taxes at the groceries because it is baked into the price of goods.

In some places, property taxes could impact rent, but in many places it doesn't matter because the price of rent is much higher than the cost of owning the rental (including tax). This is most true in places where you can't build more housing inventory.
I would go so far as to argue our assumption about Amazon even wanting to "maximize" productivity may not be correct.

It may make sense to guarantee a certain lower-than-maximum productivity than to shoot for a more risky absolute-maximum-at-all-times and sometimes miss that shot, and this system goes for the former.
My understanding is that above 95% SOC, even if you’re not using the brake, regen will not occur and an error is presented to the user notifying them about regen limits.
Fwiw, I graduated in 2014 with a CS degree from a mid-tier college with a mid-tier GPA, and I had multiple competing offers lined up months before I graduated. And the market has only gotten hotter since then. It's probably harder for someone transitioning from some other field/coming out of a bootcamp, though I've known people from bootcamps who had similar experiences to mine. Not all of them, but several of them.
I had practically the same shitty experience.

In my case the instructions were actually technically self contradictory and so I just emailed saying what I wanted as best I could resolve within those peculiar rules, and he of course told me I was not following the rules, so I said fine I'll take whatever you require me to take in order to get $x however you want to do it. But for the record your web site said x rule, and y rule, and I actually tried to do those as you can see.

His next email was to cancel the order, complete with a smarmy "I'm sure you will be able to find a source for those plotter gears somewhere else."

Well I fucking did as a matter of fact. And pens too. New ones, not dried out old stock.

http://Tandy.wiki/CGP-115

I wasn't trying to get any thing special or get away with anything or buy up too much of a limited supply or anything like that. Just a set of plotter gears and one or two joystick cables and their new replacement joystick pcbs with better buttons. I think I only really needed a single pcb and either no cables or a single cable, but he insisted one sold in pairs and maybe the other limited to one, something. I didn't really care. I was willing to buy whatever and the prices were fine. There was absolutely no reason I can fathom to treat me like a dick.

The only reason I even tried to limit what I ordered was so as not to waste something someone else could have. I wasn't using an Atari joystick on an Atari. I was using it on a TRS-80 model 1 with an add-on that only provides a single joystick port. So I really only needed 1 of everything, and I really didn't even need that. My joystick actually worked fine, I just liked the sound of that upgraded new design PCB, and I was hoping maybe a new cable would be more flexible. I was just trying to patronize a business. I mean, I was trying to be as considerate as possible in every dimension possible, buy extra stuff just to make more of a sale, yet don't waste stuff I'm not actually going to use... I was not doing that much thinking for MY convenience.

Every time I see one of the comments that says they had a great experience, all that means is not only is the guy a dick, he's a capricious unfair dick.
All this work, to suggest a fly spotlight device is hysterical. That would be marginally helpful, and maximally frustrating. I lend the project my full support were it to ever materialize.

i'm discussing the site as a product. it's a better product now, and that sentiment is pretty widespread by its engaged users. Sending the porn to other, more growth-obsessed platforms was worth it.

How long tumblr will last - i don't know. Its users are not very monetizable. But as a social media website, it is comically superior to twitter and facebook. And my argument is the exact things that cause you to say it is bad are why it is superior.

That's fair. I don't know too much about other industries. In software, if you're using passion as a hiring indicator, you're contributing to this pattern whether you want to or not.
