What are the rules to pass bikes there? Could be that the Waymos are breaking expectations by just actually insisting on passing in a 100% legal way.
Not the poster you’re replying to, but it’s not atypical for expats being sent there by their company to live in luxury housing with staff etc. I think this is partly done to entice the expat to move his whole life and family for the company but also to hook the expat up with living way above the standard they could normally afford and so they’re more docile and less likely to quit or make waves.
It's interesting to read into the tidbits of bloggers' personal lives. Sometimes we (and by that I mean "I") don't quite know what to do with ourselves ("myself") that it becomes food for thought. Seeing yet another developer's blog that's chock full of articles that rehash tutorials online just isn't very inspiring.
I sympathize (I like saying I don't do BDD, Buzzword-Driven Development), but I'm not terribly up on Fowler's work -- can you provide some concrete examples of things he recommends that were over-engineered or just plain bad for your use cases?
Meh, summarizing, grouping, etc aren't that hard.

However WINDOW queries definitely have a learning curve. Not the least because useful examples almost always require you to use a nested query.
Do you have a source for "an attacker having unsupervised access" to these machines or are you just making that up?
This seems analogous to the manipulator thought experiment in the free will debate. Imagine a scenario such that, should you choose or intend to choose X, some advanced manipulation will kick in and force you to choose Y. But in fact you chose Y and the manipulation did not kick in. Are you responsible for choosing Y?

If you think you freely chose Y in the above scenario, it seems one can freely consent even in coercive contexts. The issue is the law adjudicating between consent and coercion in such scenarios. However, if the presumed victim is not contesting consent, I find it hard to see a problem.
Well done on that analysis. This is crazy and should be fixed by Backblaze as soon as possible.

Did you publish your findings somewhere or notify Backblaze?
> Advertisement is like a reverse Midas touch. Everything relying on it is on a race to the bottom.

Not necessarily though - I can think of plenty of partially ad-supported media and publications that have retained their reputation for quality for decades or even centuries, for example, The Economist and the BBC World Service News channel.

...the thing is that the aforementioned don't generally run mass-market ads: the kinds of ads you see in the Economist or in-between World Service news segments is stuff like Rolex watches, Credit Suisse, and Chase Private Client Banking.

I agree in spirit. Setting up a linter takes an hour though and is a worthwhile investment even if you are a cash-strapped startup with no customers. Given how many static analysis errors it reports these days, it will pay off dividends with less debugging.
I think 1 and 2 are connected. Apple sees the cellular communication game from the perspective of their ecosystem. Improving network agnosticism is supportive of that perspective. We see that Apple wants to deliver a premium experience for a premium price. I assume that LEO or Lower than LEO communications could be supported by auxiliary products. A small "hotspot" type device(comm array) to couple with the Apple ecosystem? This future proofs the ecosystem to partner with a communications swarm or launch their own as launch prices drop.

I'd say it is possible in the context of what I stated. But, the article's characterization seems too good to be true.

Why can’t AIP create silent non-killer submarines?

I imagine if you’re studying life in the deep ocean, a silent submarine is nice.
i think if we combine modern monitoring and metrics systems for cloud computing with sound synthesis we could get valuable intimate insights that offer something dashboards or anomaly detection and alerting systems can not reach. if we listen to our companies systems noises, sounds and clicks thorughout the days and weeks we would naturally learn to read them and get that connection we had to our 90s workstations. the problem is its easy to make something like a novelty show room in eg. a facebook foyer, but to get the perfect balance of not being annoying or drawing too much attention from work and still representing enough real world data requires the best sound designers we have. ideally the result would be something that the kind of devs that like to listen to white noise and rain or ocean recordings at work would enjoy.

Step 1: "SQL sucks!"

Step 2: Let's make a database engine that doesn't use SQL.

Step 3: "This is hard!"

Those who ignore the lessons of SQL are doomed to reimplement them...poorly.
I think too many technical people have too much of a distrust of the cloud. I, for one, am happy to offload as much as possible to the cloud (except latency-sensitive things like games) and not carry around drives and drives at home.
Ive heard the term "Cluster on a chip" which I guess would apply here too.
My favorite Microtransaction systems are in Counter-Strike Global Offensive and Planetside 2.

Planetside 2 has very slight pay to win mechanics in the form of subscriptions for more xp, but it doesn't feel bad to play without pay.

Counter-strike on the other hand (and I think so other valve games too) have just about the perfect model in my mind. There are no advantages you get by paying, only status. The skins that you can buy and sell look cool but are purely cosmetic.

Even with this in mind people spend quite a lot of money (we're talking hundreds of dollars for one gun skin in some cases). It always seemed like a great way to generate revenue ethically.

One thing I will note with that model is they still have the gambling mechanics with the "crates" that open random skins. You could probably crank it up one more ethical notch by getting rid of those or trying to make them less addictive.

If all you do is SQL, anybody can learn it quick. If you do full stack, you're only gonna care about what gives you the data you need at that time.
Thanks for clarifying how the dangling pointers may arise. Not everyone agrees with me, but these are my thoughts/recommendations when using Ada. Which thread/task that has ownership of a variable is paramount. Whenever one defines a variable it must be crystal clear which thread/task that owns it, for example has the right the read or write a value to the variable. What I recommend is the Actor Model (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor_model). Synchronization between two tasks can either be through shared variables or message passing. Last time I checked Academia is inconclusive as to what is the best (least error-prone) way for threads/tasks to communicate. What seems the simplest to me is message passing. 10 years ago, first time I heard of the Actor Model and message passing is Erlang and it's a language where these ideas are fundamental. So a task owns a variable. If another task wishes to change the value of that variable it must send a message to the owning task and request it to change the value. If another task wishes to know the value it must ask the owning task what the value is. Since the time I heard of Erlang, other languages like Rust and the Pony language has picked up on this too. Rust has taken this further by making it possible for one task to temporarily borrow ownership to another task and it is checked by the borrow-checker.

To implement the Actor Model in Ada one puts all variables in the body of the tasks that are in the application. It makes them not visible from other tasks. So what you need to keep in mind when developing is for a task to never send an access-to-object type variable to another task. If there is a need to do that you need to use Ada/SPARK or Rust to get the proper ownership checking done. Btw, Codepeer (static code analysis tool for Ada) finds race-conditions, has deadlock detection, and warns if there are variables that may be read or written to by more than one task.

If one sticks to vanilla Ada (not SPARK) one could develop an application based on libadalang that parses all the Ada source code and checks that all task entries have input arguments that do not contain any access-to-object types (to find instances where a developer has sent an access-to-object variable to another task by mistake). Such a tool does not exist but libadalang exists to allow the creation of custom rules checking on one's Ada code.
This is very interesting, because, for years, there have been fan boys that justified Apple and Google apps store rackets by saying that it is normal for them to have high charges to be able to fund the expensive work of providing the service.
More than welcome to!
> incentive structures

this. I'm pretty sure current incentives from an era of capitalist (based on industrial manufacture) are just not good at software and digital goods in general.

However, the exclusive ownership paradigm is so ingrained in our civilization that it'll take a long time for humanity to even properly consider other possibilities.
The medium is the message. When on YouTube, act like youtubers. It didn't start this way but as the platform has matured, content creators converged on what works.

It's the same way you can tell a video is from tiktok even if the watermark is removed.
Product-first engineers don't avoid architecture. They tend to know when you can skim on building it, or when the common development tools already provide enough of it.

Sometimes, it's as simple as "frontend, backend, and a way to deploy it".

Not to mention so many developer tooling products out there already decide on the architecture for you. Use anything firebase for example, and you'll be pretty railed in around the way your system is architected.

It’s perfectly ok to charge for GPL software.

Providing the source on a physical medium for a price is reasonable because no one should be forced to run a digital distribution setup and infrastructure just because they build software that derives from GPL pieces.

Their customers have a right to receive a copy of the source. But the company is not obliged to host an online accessible version of it.

Charging a small amount for a copy of the source is fine.

And I will go so far as to say that making demands about access to the source code in a manner beyond what the GPL requires, is actually hurting the adoption of GPL software, not helping it. Why should a company base their work on GPL licensed software if they are going to meet pushback even when they are complying with the letter of the GPL? They might just build something different all together, and with no open source at all. And where does that leave us? Definitely in a worse place.

I tried it, but unfortunately the complete lack of auto-categorization in all of those e2ee photo storage apps renders them unusable for anyone with a large library. Ente is not the first one to do this, there are many others with similarly lacking UX, like MEGA.

Both Apple Photos and Google Photos:

1. have easy search by location on a map of the world.

2. allow browsing to any date in an instant.

3. index photos by objects/faces and allow for instant searching - Apple even does it on-device.

Also, frankly, I don't trust you to stay around for long, so I would appreciate the option to store encrypted photos on a cloud of my choosing that I already pay for, with a separate subscription for using your app. Not sure what the Venn diagram of <cares about privacy>, <willing to pay for your storage>, <needs excellent browsing experience> looks like.

Looking forward to an app which works for people with large libraries. :)

There is a very deep rabbit hole of this content, and the ones that are staged "well" can have millions of views, but if you click into the channel and go through their other content, you quickly see that they're pumping out these videos every few days - always with the same camera/resolution, the same voices/languages and rough geographic locations. Very clearly monetized animal torture.

There are dozens of channels specifically based around torturing baby monkeys - either pretending to save it from a dog (after filming it being bitten and shaken in the dogs mouth for several minutes), or putting it through other forms of abuse under the guise of "looking after" it. There are people/groups trying to fight against this[0], but YouTube has ignored them for years.

But it even gets worse than that - a second "revenue stream" for these people involves private facebook groups full of people who enjoy watching baby monkeys getting tortured and killed, and will pay people to have them record videos of it.[1][2][3]

> Furthermore, they do "online" live-stitching while doing panoramas

This way it may be used for even creating video "on-the-go" with standalone camera position (with low FPS it may be useful for landscape timelaps video capture or panoramic webcam) - and as a result it could be cheaper alternative to such things as Facebook's Surround 360[0,1] DIY 3D-360 video capture system.

Just as addition to software part it would require to design some sort of automatically rotated "panoramic tripod head" hardware synchronized with camera photo capture control (to take photos).

encouraging male teens to understand such sex is, in fact, a crime, that it is never really consensual

Statutory rape. Something a lot of people have difficulty comprehending as actually rape.

Of course, the world still tends to imagine rape as a violent crime. In many cases, it's not. Date rape is another variation of this problem.

women forcing males into sex does not comport with society’s conventional definition of rape.

Last I checked, in far too many cases, the legal definition of rape literally makes it a crime that cannot be committed by a woman. Though hopefully that's changing.
AIP isn't quieter than a batter powered submarine, it's quieter than a nuclear powered submarine.

Unless you're doing ridiculously long research dives (in which case batteries don't suffice), or you care about noise on the surface (where you would use a traditional air burning diesel engine to recharge) it doesn't seem like this brings any advantages.

Yeah, those are the exceptions, though, and god knows how long they're gonna last. The effect of algorithmic advertisement and pay-per-impression/click is visible even on reputable newspapers: lots of them are resorting to clickbait because that's what generates pageviews.
Looking at this, I'm confused by basic questions. Is this a Mimd or Simd architecture chip? [1] What is the memory/caching structure here and would be fast or slow? Is this to replace a GPU or to replace the CPU you connect to the GPU or both? Would you get code and/or data divergence here? IE, "Many cores" seems to imply each has it's own instructions but ML usually runs on vectoring machines like a GPU.

Edit: OK, I can see this has "network on a chip" architecture but I think that only answers some of my questions.

There are lots of cases where a join with yourself is applicable, although they are mostly superseded by window functions these days.

For example normalisation (join with a groupby/sum of yourself) or rank (join each row with all rows that have lower value than yourself and count those rows).

But as I mentioned above. A good start is to sketch that out in excel. You will realize that what you need is another column (e.g. total sum for this id). And from that you can work yourself backwards to figure out what is the table you need to join with to create that column.

Mr Hoel trash-talks his colleagues and then commits the very sins that he derides: wanting something shiny, failing to assess how long something will take, and failing to consider the incremental steps needed, and whether they will each make sense on their own: how do we get there from here?

He mentions the need to start from things that already exist in embryonic form, but omits a few important embryos: the effects of climate destabilisation, decreasing dependence on fossil fuels, artificial meat and dairy, for example. In biotech he merely picks out embryo selection and anti-aging technologies (ooh, shiny), but there is much more potential than that. Cancers, for instance. Metabolic disorders. Parasites (think malaria).

The phrasing "a minority-led country" is deeply weird and, to me, racist. It's like something out of the 1990s. What he means is that people of European descent or appearance ("white") will no longer be the majority of voters in the USA. While in itself fairly minor, it's an example of the slipshod, superficial thinking that the piece, and the whole genere of futurism, evidences.

"Education will be online"? Maybe a small quantity of tertiary education and in-service career-related training, but MOOCs have failed for reasons based firmly in human nature. How do we get there from here? Primary education, online? Secondary? Vocational courses? How do we get there from here?

I'm going to stop there.
Why are you framing this oppositionally against women? It's weird.
