Not really, anyone can own spectrum, in the last few years its gotten really expensive as it's become more important to building a robust network but historically it wasn't that hard to license an small band in your area.
So, anyone care to actually offer a rebuttal?

Apparently not...
Yes, in my dialect of American English (raised in Southern California by parents from the midwest), "cot" and "caught" are pronounced almost identically.
To be fair, banning for-profit school hurts the tax from these corporations since they cannot make profit from this. That's the goverment cost of the policy.

I think they're called gardens.
To be fair it is also referred to to as such in the car UI and in the disclosures that appear before you enable them (lane keeping vs. auto steer isn't too different in my opinion - both terms imply a regular competent driver, not some "always perfect" driver).
"The cot–caught merger or LOT–THOUGHT merger, formally known in linguistics as the low back merger, is a sound change present in some dialects of English where speakers do not distinguish the vowel phonemes in "cot" and "caught". ...An additional vowel merger, the father–bother merger, which spread through North America in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, has resulted today in a three-way merger in which most Canadian and many American accents have no vowel difference in words like "palm" /ɑ/, "lot" /ɒ/, and "thought" /ɔ/."
The nuance doesn't matter, though. If you tell a cop that person A is 1% likely to be guilty of a crime, and person B is 3% likely to be guilty of a crime, they are going to focus their efforts on person B - despite both people being more likely than not, to be innocent.

When being harassed by police is itself sufficient to turn a person into a criminal, or ruin their life, you end up in a situation where everyone is doing what is 'reasonable', but leading to outcomes that are both unfair, and even negative overall, to society.
Do you have any more details on this problem?
Also, it is an inherently screwed data collection, where people will drive manually in more dangerous situations - so you pretty much get a statistics on going on a straight line for hundreds of kilometers, except for the actually problematic intersection/people walking before after the car, etc.
It's simply not that. Electric cars aren't just being proposed as a temporary replacement for ICEs, they're increasingly being proposed as a replacement to public transit. See the Loop, and various autonomous taxi schemes that compete not with personal car ownership but with public transport.

Beyond that, we live in a world of limited resources and path dependency. Every dollar being spent on subsidizing electric cars is a dollar not spent on public transport. So as soon as we're no longer talking about getting ICE cars off the road, we're spending money on tech that is not good enough instead of tech that is good enough.

It's not the good being the enemy of the better, it's the less bad being the enemy of good enough. A world where we're spending 5000$+ from taxpayer money on EVs while dealing with ineffective public transport, which incentivizes people to move to suburbia and double their CO2 emissions, isn't going to cut it.

So by all means we can work on EVs as a backup plan for those that will never use public transportation or human powered transport, but the second it's harming actually working transportation tech, and in the US that's starting to happen, it's doing more harm than good.
One of us! One of us! One of us!
Caterpillars don't move the seeds around in a beneficial way. Maybe it can tell the difference? I'm kind of curious what a tomato plant does with the information that it's being munched on though.
I’m actually not too familiar with the py-cryptography situation, but perhaps it is similar; I’m not sure. But what I’m talking about is projects that move to a completely different language and in the process cause problems for a lot of their users, who understandably voice their concerns. It is always nice to see projects willing to consider and make a good-faith effort to accommodate these needs. The reason I felt the need to leave a comment, though, is that I sometimes see the opposite: complete apathy, sometimes even willful shaming of those who explain why the change is problematic for them. They’re treated like luddites, or entitled, for merely mentioning that the change has affected them in ways that may not have been obvious when the decision was taken. That’s just being a jerk.

I can (and have) actually written quite a bit about this, but I’m not impressed by arguments where people quote the terms of a license to justify them being a jerk. I maintain several open source projects, and I can tell you that the license tells you nothing but what you must do to avoid being sued. It is a legal contract, not a guideline for how you should behave, unless you’re one of those people who goes around providing the bare minimum courtesy to others as is necessary to not get in legal trouble (we have a word for those people: jerks).

When I work on software other people use, I am a considerate person who understands that my code will often be used in ways I did not expect it to be. I think people that do is are really awesome! As a software maintainer, I believe it is my duty as a nice person to extent some amount of courtesy to them. Of course, there are limits to everything, but that limit is absolutely not at the point where my legal liability ends.

So, coming back to this topic: I have seen projects that take the stance you have in response to people reporting things like “I can’t compile this software for my platform anymore :(“. I think that is a legal, but jerk move. In this case the maintainer not only understood the concerns that people may have from the changes, but they also committed to providing basic support for it even though they obviously didn’t have to do anything. A good maintainer recognizes that a minimal bit of effort can pay off handsomely in goodwill, and I just wanted to call attention to that fact.
The conservative chant, as if space in a city is not an ultimate zero-sum game. Any "pro something else" eventually butts up against having 80% of space and 110% of government drone mindshare allocated to cars.
Your comment is not substantial. If you have a reason why Tesla should not be responsible for selling half-baked software as "Full Self Driving", then please share it.

Otherwise your assumption that it's just a hate-vote is just your assumption.

For me personally, any article that helps to define the risk of driving on the same roads as Teslas is important. I didn't opt in to this greed-fueled lunacy and don't want to die because of it.
Option 2 sounds really good except for the harassment. Tracking them = good. Sending letters = good. These people will hate the police no matter what, though.
I'd love to actually know how many truly independent scientists work on "looking into these things".

Does anyone have a quantifiable number. I'm again, not doubting what you're saying, but I hear a lot of "thousands of scientists are vetting the medicine etc".

Are they really ?

I think about this with open source software too, I run Linux, but I do actually wonder sometimes how much "vetting" is really going on.
This is a strange take. It's preferable to be exposed to a pocket of criticism to get a full picture. In the wider world, Musk can do no wrong, at least in his business endeavours.
A majority of the street names around Santa Fe where I live are named in Spanish. I'm always quite impressed that (english language) gmaps manages to say "Suh-ree-os" for "Cerrillos", but every once in a while it totally goofs up some Spanish streetname, for no apparent reason.

It does use almost all vowels and consonants. “Ching” ㄔㄧㄥ is a technically valid syllable in the Pinyin system but does not correspond to any word in the dictionary.

Chinese has both, and they're different sounds: ch [ʈʂʰ] vs q [tɕʰ]. Unfortunately the Chinese "q" doesn't exist in English, so "ch" is the closest approximation.

Yes exactly.

Probably just provide an ear and then make people talk and they will articulate what their problem is better and they’ll find the answers themselves.
I read it as bugs of this severity are extremely rare. Which claim doesn’t require telemetry.
So, I'm working in FAANG after time in strategy consulting, and I run a product ops and content dev team. I'm really interested in marketing and marketing 'strategy'. Any ideas on how to build knowledge and credibility in order to move into the space more directly?
the difficult part is exactly aligning the images to make them stack nicely
Given that the Tesla can tell the difference between road types (as evidenced by the fact that it applies different speed caps to divided highways, and will only enable Navigate-on-Autopilot on interstates), if Autosteer is only designed for such roads it seems odd that it allows drivers to enable it anywhere it can parse the road lines.
Not only is Tesla Autopilot potentially lethal for Tesla owners, it is also potentially lethal for other road users.

I don't understand why Tesla are still permitted to sell vehicles with this feature.
It seems like something that might be expensive to protect against but what weather would be impossible to protect against?
The marketing is certainly a big part of it, but I think it's a mistake to think there aren't significant issues here that would remain even with better marketing.

One big problem is the sheer unpredictability of what's going to happen the next moment. If you turn on cruise control on the wrong street, its behavior is still going to be entirely predictable. You're simply not going to get suddenly erratic behavior just because you pressed the cruise-control button. Autopilot on the other hand seems to actively make the situation far more unpredictable than it would otherwise be, increasing the dangers people find themselves in. That's just horrible by any standards I can consider sane, no matter how it's marketed.

Another (somewhat related, somewhat distinct) problem is that a system that works (say) 99% of the time and fails 1% of the time can easily be more dangerous than one that works 20% of the time and fails 80% of the time. (Obviously I made up the numbers, but adjust accordingly.) If you have to constantly correct something, then you're used to it; it's second nature to you. But if you might get used to it working too well... then as a human you won't be necessarily ready for the rare cases, especially when they're more difficult to predict. So an autopilot that works 'better' than something like cruise control can easily end up being more dangerous because of this, and it would be a mistake to hold them to identical standards.
If you are going from php to python just remove the dollar signs $ and update how you treat strings. Those languages are cousins. Honestly, within 2 weeks you wont look back. However, Python2 vs Python3 makes php look like a bunch of geniuses and you will miss php.net. The php8 team is really awesome and the language is pushing forward. But if you need to be 'hip' yeah learn python a 30 year old language from 1991 :)
Thank you.

I'll soon let you see all the playlists that are related to a particular genre instead of the newly indexed ones.
You seem to be aligning me with one side or the other. I think my criticism applies equally to the people who look down on people for particpating in the system as to those who call them parasites.

Critical rational thought can take you all sorts of violent and negative places if you don't make an effort to pair it with empathy and a genuine effort to understand the perspectives of those you are tempted to despise.

Giving in to "rational" dehumanization and hatred is not going to actually help anything and will probably make things worse.
Yes, something like this

$user_ids = [1, 6, 46, 3, 17];
$count = count($user_ids);
$in = '(' . implode(', ', array_fill(0, $count, '?')) . ')';
$sql = "SELECT user_id, email FROM user WHERE user_id IN {$in}";
$stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
$stmt->execute($user_ids);
var_dump($stmt->fetchAll());

> I don't agree with the taxi driver, but I fail to see how this response could be viewed as a sentiment stemming from lowered intelligence, especially given how often the same or similar sentiment comes up (albeit masked in nicer words) in virtually every discussion about global population as relates to climate change, and often from people who are clearly intelligent.

I agree to a certain extent; you could even argue that less intelligent people are less likely to pay attention to big geopolitical issues like overpopulation, so they wouldn't even go far enough as to have a position on that. The main reason I took it as poor intelligence is that she seemed to think this justified her personally not getting the vaccine. Which would make her the personal deliverer of justice to anyone in her cab who happens to be older, or then transmits it to people who are older (if she happens to get COVID and someone catches it). I pointed this out and she was like, "hmn... that's a good point." That's a pretty easy leap of logic that had never occurred to her at all.
One thing that has puzzled me about complaints about English speakers' pronunciation of transliterated Chinese words (the only topic of TFA), is why the speaker is blamed rather than the transliteration. If the official transliteration into the Roman alphabet leads to less accuracy in pronunciation than some other (for example see the second vs third columns in the table in TFA), then would it not make better sense for the aggrieved name-holders to adopt a more accurate transliteration instead? Could it be that the transliteration rules which are now standard are not optimally suited to this purpose?
I don't use it anymore, but when I did, I ran roughly the following: https://gist.github.com/RulerOf/1c9dd1eb51af4991e4b6b48afdd6...
It's really quite sad that the regulation of autonomous vehicles been so slow to come along. Public roads are filled with other drivers, passengers, and pedestrians that did not consent to be a part of a large scale beta test for partial driving automation that could fail at any time. I believe this is a case where self driving software should be default illegal until proven safe. Most companies in this industry, thankfully, seem to be moving carefully and rolling out their products conservatively; Tesla seems to think "move fast and break things" is an appropriate motto for 5000 lbs projectiles on public roads.
Because the standard transliteration used for Mandarin (pinyin) already has a CH. Q sounds similar, but not identical to CH. Similar enough that "just pronounce Q as CH" is ok advice, different enough to make a huge difference when actually speaking Mandarin.
I appreciate the enthusiasts paying to be beta testers. I hope to profit from their experience in a few years when a car with a real autopilot is available. I just wish they didn’t have to endanger innocent others in the process.
They need to compare against cars in the same class, not the whole industry. Also, I’m not sure death per miles is the right metric. What matters is the accident rate while operating in cruise.
the attitude in a lot of the comments there is bizarre...

in most of the world i'd hope an accident caused by using these features is the drivers fault for switching them on and not 'driving with due care and attention'

all of the stuff about it being "safe if" miss the core concept of what safety means if you take it seriously, which you always should when driving. safety and stability isn't something you get by ignoring edge cases, its about handling them so robustly you can't have problems.

people who have never experienced problems can /maybe/ justify using these features... but what they say on the tin should be enough to not want to use them.

giving beta features to regular consumers is fine. doing it when those features can cause injury or death is absolutely abhorrent behaviour that should be prosecuted.

allowing software updates for something like this is pretty counter to safety practises too, and the QA process clearly has too many problems to be reliable... not that it should be relied upon anyway on the timescales involved here.

too many of these tech companies 'pushing the limits' are doing so by ignoring the law, and it costs lives. when individuals do this they are fined and/or imprisoned, and rightly so.

the idea that a company results in no accountability is not a failing of the law, but a failing of those whose duty it is to enforce it.
It is only bad when China does it.
But the things this author is criticizing about Facebook in the quote I posted really only apply to the main Facebook service -- not Messenger, Marketplace, Workspace, dating, Instagram, etc. And they apply equally to Twitter.
With so much guidance of the AI toward James Gurney, I'm surprised no dinosaurs snuck in. They would totally fit the world portrayed.

If enhanced cruise control in my non-Tesla routinely slammed on the breaks out of nowhere, I’d be pissed about that too.

Tesla’s marketing is optimized to convince users that the software is better than it is, and the software’s failure modes align horribly with the worst case: when things are working, everything is smooth, but without warning the car will suddenly decide to make a dangerous active change (swerving, braking, etc) in a way that can kill a driver who is even partially distracted.

Put the above together and it starts to look like Elon has created a perfect storm for traffic accidents.
That sounds like a load of baseless accusations. Printing WikiLeaks leaks doesn't mean they have to defend Assange for his behavior. Assange is also a well established liar.
Ok, fair, whatever. But can one use Tesla with normal radar cruise control? Systems like these been super robust for over a decade if not two. Can one disable all these proactive security features that seem to not work.
That's a wonderful way to divide all of the people who are anti-car into thousands of different voices shouting for different things at once.

As an aside, pointing all those don'ts at the reader is awfully hypocritical.

I wanted to read the article, but my computer fans consistently start whirring like crazy upon visiting the page.

Not only is it the case that you can do that, it's the case that you should do that. Which leads to the question of why it's not in-built functionality. Making secure code harder to write than insecure code is a great way to ensure that lots of people write insecure code.
Oh rackspace. That expensive lesson has already been learned by so many companies. Going to be a disaster.
Sure, but I think people are generally more sympathetic to "here is something that people want and aren't getting; I'd like us to consider letting the people have some of that" (the pro-whatever angle, even if that is inevitably anti-car in implementation) than they are to "I think that cars are currently too convenient and should be made less convenient" (the anti-car angle).

It's the difference between "I want this thing I don't have" (understandable/evokes empathy) versus "I don't want others to have the thing they have" (much less understandable and evokes almost no empathy).

The last news I found were all from 2020, and it was not clear if the pilot was successful or not... Does anyone knows what happened with this? Is it dead?
Well it seems that the commenters on the Tesla Motors Club really should not put any trust in a beta product feature and must keep all eyes on the road at all times when driving.

Seems like Tesla manufactured a reality distortion field with FSD to market it like a fully self-driving vehicle where that is no where near the case as it is still admittedly Level 2 cruise control. Not the over-promised 'Level 5' FSD.

I'm not going into the pricing of this, since that is a complete scam and on this, Tesla really took their customers for a self-driving ride for years on a beta product feature that still doesn't work as advertised.

No thanks and no deal.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but it looks like it is a PHP specific problem. Python does not have it.

Of course at C level parameterised queries ("prepared statements") do not accept arrays. It would not make sense for them to do.

This is because the placeholders can be substituted by values of different types.

In typed programming languages, arrays have elements of the same type.

For example in SQLite, you are supposed to call `sqlite3_bind_int()`, `sqlite3_bind_text()` [1], once for each query parameter.

In languages like PHP and Python, where arrays can carry values of different types, their wrappers around the SQLite C functions can do this function calling for each value in the array. In Python, that is easy, the default, and explained in the very beginning of the official standard library's sqlite documentation [2]:

It states at the very beginning that query construction by string construction is unsafe and must be avoided. It immediately provides an example of how to safely call a parameterised query with an array of values, using `execute()` and `executemany()`.

PHP's standard library simply does not seem to have such an `execute()` function that accepts an array [3], nor do the official docs seem to contain any prose that could explain how to use the library safely [4]. The only way you can find out is by reading user-contributed comments on some specific functions in the function reference.

So Python's standard library provides safe functions, and immediately instructs the user how to use them. PHP's does not. Unclear to me how one can conclude that this isn't a PHP specific problem.
