Well, great news for you then! Elon Musk just announced they're adding a button to allow a lot more people to get access to this beta software. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1438751064765906945
If the best part is no part, than we have to ask ourselves if we truly need a car for daily living or that we could transform society in such a way that don't require cars for daily living.

What do we need a car for? To transport heavy objects or people over distance longer than a bicycle or a human in a reasonable amount of time in a manner more flexible than a bus or a train.
I recently avoided a startup prospect because they were looking to build a car OS that wasn't hard real-time. The very idea that they're trying to develop such things that might intermittently pause to do some garbage collection is freaking terrifying.
It is also Canonical-centric, there is pretty much only one repository under Canonical's control and closed source, and so forth. I missed out a lot of other things, but Snap is... nope. I would rather use Flatpak if I have to choose between the two.

I mean, if you (generally speaking) have experience with package managers on Linux, then you can easily see the difference between them and Snap. Snap to me is similar to Google's Play Store, but for desktop.
From a NamePros thread [1]:

> artdao.eth bought for 59Ξ ($191711.65)

> tara.eth bought for 6Ξ ($21797.16)

> artblockscurated.eth bought for 7.0Ξ ($24992.66)

There are tons of similar sales apparently. Some of it just doesn't make sense. $200k for artdao.eth? Really? The last two are apparently NFT related things. The only one in there I can maybe understand is esports.eth since $10k for an esports company to have a premium wallet address makes sense to speculate on given that market.

However, they have domain validated integration of existing (ICANN) domains now, so I don't see much value in the .eth stuff. There's some value in avoiding confusion. Saying "send money to esports.eth" is less ambiguous than "send money to esports.com" because the latter could be confused with normal eTransfers. Beyond that though, what makes a .eth domain worth $10k+?

I think it makes sense to block a known-unreliable news outlet because they are usually seen as sources of authoritative, correct information, and once they have proven they are no longer reliable, anything they say no longer holds the same weight of proper journalistic integrity (essentially losing the privilege of trust and perceived "authority").

If there is true, factual information they posted about, the same information can almost surely be sourced from another, more reputable news outlet that is known to fact-check and provide accurate information.

FWIW, I blocked/muted NYPost twitter account years ago because of their vitriolic, sensationalized and misleading click-bait articles. If you can't convey important news without manipulating me, you have no credibility and are no better than a grocery-store-checkout tabloid.
In this case pedestrians waved back to the driver who apologized as they were far away. If they were closer car would have probably stopped as AP stops and slows down near pedestrians.
"Spoilation" is the idea that if you destroy evidence, the court assumes the evidence is unfavorable to you.

If the government invokes national security in a case to prevent the court from seeing evidence, it should be treated as destroying evidence and the court should assume the worst about the evidence that they aren't allowed to see.
The whole point is that this sign on yard analogy is just not relevant to real world circumstance. Facebook and Twitter have outsized control over how I socialize with others.

If every major cell phone provider chose to stop delivering any text with that article attached to it, would that be acceptable? What if they decided to unilaterally stop delivering any texts from the Trump campaign?

Clearly there is a line to be drawn, and falling back on "it's their private property and thus their right to filter it however they want" is not sufficient in the 21st century, in the age of platform companies and extreme corporate consolidation.

> It was garbage, and filtering out garbage is an important function

Garbage? It was new, previously unreported information. I voted for Joe Biden, and I still found it of interest - and it did appear to contradict some things Biden had said publicly.
I neither see nor hear any indication of a turn signal, so I do not think it is actually trying to make a right turn.

Besides, the pedestrians were already on the road when the car initiated the turn. Note the "one way" sign: that street only has a single lane, and that lane was already occupied. It should definitely have yielded.
There are pretty stringent laws against drunk driving in most places... if Tesla's "self driving" modes are that bad then they should be equally illegal
That sign applies only to the lanes to the left of the pillars. It is legal to turn right there from the right lane. I've done it myself. Yes, it is confusing.
I think the whole dream/goal of building a self driving car on top of a system completely designed for manual human interpretation and input is asinine, and that's before you even consider the complexity of adding other humans manually driving or suddenly walking in front of your car from a blind spot. Instead of building a digital system from the ground up, we are forcing manufacturers to come up with tech to read speed signs meant for human eyes and accurately interpret them under a myriad of conditions. What if it's covered in mud, or snow? Wouldn't coming up with national/international standards and a digital system work better for digital cars, like broadcasting speed limits instead of only relying on interpreting visual inputs, etc? Or standardizing the charging interface so you don't end up in a mac-like dongle hell and can just know no matter what car charging station you pull up to it will just work, like gas stations and standardized fueling systems work for all brand of ICE vehicles? I can go to any branded gas station and there isn't a station specific for just Ford cars. It just seems like a mish mash system of cludges hobbled together instead of a solid, well thought out system from the ground up. Due to that, we are making it 10x harder (and more dangerous) than it really needs to be. It's like saying you have to build all modern OS's on top of DOS made for 8 bit cpu's.

I'd keep going but maybe you get the point.
So many of these "leaders" from Fauci on down have been caught. They only wear their masks when they think the cameras are on. It's all a farce.
RISC-V’s success won’t benefit the end user, only spare designers a licensing fee they can well afford. After recompiling everyone’s software and dividing a huge unified ecosystem the end result will be some political victory with no material value.
This is obviously a matter of deep and extensive philosophical debate, and I'll admit my definition isn't perfect, but to address your comment:

> And most advice that you encounter will work for some people but not others. Does that make whether or not it is science depend on the audience?

The question is whether or not it works in aggregate, i.e. for most people to whom the advice could apply. If it doesn't, then we would say it's not scientifically sound advice.

> science is a particular process and methodology supported by a set of norms that enable us to continue building a fact based picture of reality.

Science is not one process or methodology; there is the scientific method, but not all science uses it. For example, paleontologists cannot form an experiment to test a hypothesis of what killed the dinosaurs. But science can still give us a fairly accurate picture of what probably killed them.
It's not like the car is going rogue and just randomly making a right turn. It's trying to find the right side of the road in a rare intersection. A monorail in the middle of a city street is quite rare so this is an understandable failure-mode.
> or people that simply don’t have lots of disposable income.

Yeah, that is the target market of Apple, people without disposable income. Keep digging man, keep digging.
How is this the top comment? It does nothing to move the discourse forward. You are trying to slam the brakes by homing in on some tricky terminology. I wish this kind of comment would get downvoted into oblivion anytime the topic of a wealth tax comes up, whether or not you agree with it.

The difficulty you are having in parsing out the comparison here is because the comparison is difficult to make (and possibly you are just trolling). How would you word this sentence to make it more clear? It is clear from the rest of the document that what is being compared is not the "wealth tax" on families, because as you said we don't have wealth taxes.

The comparison is what percentage of wealth do families already give to the government through taxes in general. Nowhere does it mention an existing "wealth tax". Most middle-class families build their wealth from a paycheck, while ultra-rich families can do so through other means that aren't taxed. Whether or not you agree that a wealth tax would be of benefit here, it's hard to argue against that point. And that is what your referenced quote is trying to elucidate.

Just another reminder that you should never delude yourself into thinking these companies are a force for anything moral or ethical.
You should consider population density when evaluating broadband penetration:

Country Mbps People per km2
---
Singapore 262.20 8,041
Hong Kong 254.40 6,677
Monaco 242.89 19,341
Switzerland 222.00 207
Thailand 221.00 135
Romania 217.91 82
South Korea 216.67 511
Denmark 216.13 133
Chile 209.83 25
France 201.61 118
Hungary 201.55 104
US 199.00 34

So most of these countries have population density ranging from twice as high to several orders of magnitude higher compared to the US, with the exception of Chile, which has 1/20th of the US population.

What the ranking obviously isn't showing is variability in the bell curve within a country. In the US, you can get fiber in big motropolitan areas, but at the same time, there are plenty of areas in the US where you just don't get any connectivity at all.
regular and electric bikes. let’s replace parking on major urban streets with dedicated, protected bike lanes. along with dedicated bus lanes with synchronized lights, we could replace a lot of car trips with just these two changes in how we use our existing streets.
>but the Hunter Biden stuff was a shameless distraction with no real substance.

Uh, that's really not a strong affirmative justification for taking active measures to stop people from using your platform to share a story. And of course the real problem is not simply that the story was suppressed, but that we all know that media platforms do not in fact have a blanket policy against reporting on "shameless distractions with no real substance", and that this sort of post-hoc rationalizing of obvious partisan bias is intellectually insulting.
Is it just me, or is this ASP.NET ViewState from 15 years ago?
I worry a little bit about things like this. If they were just using debouncing on a band-aid rather than dealing directly with the bad input that led to the phantom breaking, then that would seem to imply that the project is falling into the classic death march project trap. It turns out that the last 10% of the project is going to be 90% of the work. Meaning that the original schedule was off by an order of magnitude. But the business has made made huge promises that mean that the team is not at liberty to adjust the schedule accordingly. And so they're under ever increasing pressure to cut corners and pile on quick fixes.
Maybe you have a particularly beefy CPU. What if you have the original Raspberry Pi?
Why do you think they made not checking the PoW supporting the checkpoint the default?
I love BurntSushi's work and find the article strangely familiar. I had a very similar start at pretty much the exact same time - a PHP CMS that I also under-estimated. I was 12, and my pathway was very windows-heavy unlike his.

> I had never realized how much Americans like to should you to death.

Yep, as an American in Germany this is something I don't miss. Germans certainly do this but it's always framed as a suggestion, or as an option. I talk to a few American friends back home and even on the small things they never fail to chime in about how to run my life.

I have noticed, however, that it's not only Americans. Our counterparts from "across the pond" (in the UK and neighbors) also like to do this, though to a much lesser degree.

Great read. I see the same thing on Github and over the 10 years I've been there it's only gotten much, much worse.

After 8000 years of erosion, it's amazing they can even still find tool marks.
China is really copying everything from the west, even the bad ideas.
Yes it’s amazing. Congress people before the cameras are on, they mill about freely maskless and then when the lights come on, the masks go up.

It’s such a disingenuous show.

And you’re getting downvoted for saying what you see. It’s like, yeah but but… but what? They’re vaccinated, I get it. But don’t put on a show… for what?
Who decides what outlet is reliable? Should that be blocked from my text messages?

Should the standard be to only allow articles written by reputable outlets, which have been known to bury stories (such as those demonstrating war crimes by the US military)?

I just completely disagree with you I guess. I should be free to send whatever I want in private chat messages with my friends, even if it is politically unsavory.
Of course it's not fine in that sense.

What I mean is that you don't see a headline on news outlets or twitter hashtags trending for every drunk driver fatality or crash that happens. Which for me tells that collectively, we are fine with it. We accept it as ordinary, as crazy as it may be.

There were several high publicity collisions with a Tesla colliding into stationary objects -- a highway barricade [1], a blue truck [2], a parked police car[3], two instances of a parked ambulance[4]...

A Minimum Viable Test works better when you use Key Risk Indicators (KRIs). KRIs are a lightweight tactic to list your risk estimations, quantify them as possible, and aim for mitigations. KRIs are very useful (in my experience) to accelerate projects because they are quick and easy to write and discuss, and they guide teams toward the best Minimum Viable Tests.

It's not wrong, but it's clickbait.
"Our urbanized places are garbage" is a completely different statement from "our country is large". One of them is circumstance and the other is self-inflicted.
you can make money if you do your research. You won't make millions over night, but you have to start somewhere.
Really though, if people learned how to properly budget their time and money, change their habits, and disassociate from groups that bring them down, they'll have positive changes in their life.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink though.
You solve this face recognition and ticketing of offenders. The cars have cameras everywhere anyway
Instead of looking for something specific, I decided to try a category of some sort to see what came up. Thinking about Jeopardy categories, I tried "potent potables" and found a lot of random pages that may or may not have made sense given that category but that I had a lot of fun reading. Definitely a win for me.
America needs to embrace more cars like these and lower speeds in cities. Lower speeds==less safety measures needed. Not only that but less noise, less pollution, safer for everyone around.
If you build tools of oppression (not making it easy to use alternate app stores) they will inevitably be abused by those wishing to oppress.
This was a private beta, to be clear.
The rich invest in hard assets that produce income. Whether that's dividend from stocks, or rental income from commercial buildings. That recurring income is usually enough to service the loan.

And remember the ultra-rich themselves own the bank. Warren Buffet has huge multi-billion dollar positions in Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo, in addition to owning the real-estate arm of Berkshire Hathaway itself. And the ones that don't own the banks, still get favorable personal treatment from banks in order to get their M&A or underwriting business.
Congratulations, you've just successfully argued that the USA is a third world country.
That doesn't seem especially bad. The car could, for instance, predict whether or not it was safe to do garbage collection. Humans do the same when they decide to look away while driving.
Running a Discord of any size sucks too, to be fair. I run a small (<1000) Discord related to hacking of a video game engine, and even the amount of drama that my server has encountered is sometimes quite unnerving. I plan on expanding it with a forum and/or a wiki in the coming months, because Discord is unsuitable for long term preservation of content. I consider Discord a more modern version of IRC, in a practical sense. Great for real-time communication, bad for long-form content and long-term preservation.

Whatever happened with namecoin?
A car that sells new for the price of the Chery is not going to have good safety measures and will be a death trap in an accident. Cars today can last a long time if you take care of them. New they cost a lot, but after about 10 years most are in a much more affordable price range. Sure you may have to spend a little more on maintenance, but still.

The key with all of this is spending the time to maintain them mechanically and physically. I have always done that which is why I am still driving a 20 and 17 year old cars (along with a newer Chevy Volt). Most people think they look close to being like new.

Sure it takes some time to wash them myself, add protective sealants/polishes to the outside, protectant in the inside, leather preservers to the seats, keep up on the repairs etc., but the reduced insurance costs and overall running costs make it an easy thing to do.

In the US most people do not take care of their cars, mechanically and physically they often start to look really bad after about 10-15 years (even in the milder southern and western climates) and people just junk them and buy new. In some other countries people take care of them and you see the net result of people with cars over 20 years old in good condition still being driven.
I don't buy on billionaires dreams, if Elon wanted to help humanity, he would focus on making Teslas more affordable and/or other projects that impact more closely the environment/people's life. Obviously, everyone spend their money in the way they want, but the non ending hypocrisy coming from those people is truly disgusting.

It's expected that on HN you give your arguments first.
The guy in the video is stress testing the system by repeatedly driving next to the pillars which he knows are handled poorly (previous versions of FSD would actually drive right into them). So he is being extra cautious with his hands on the wheel.
Exactly. Just wait until you have to auth with a 3rd party API, fetch the request async, do a transformation on the response, load it into a 3rd party UI grid, add custom styling to the grid, and then add sorting and filtering on top. And this isn't anything particularly exotic--it's a wash-rinse-'n'-repeat you find over and over in products--and it'd be a royal PITA to build it in a framework that's basically a thin layer on top of HTML.
Was few ways and sure changing the ROM, but with RAMpack you had the space to redo the interupt controlling the display and probebly best demoed with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjA-qlDv5Xw Though for this they just pointed the character map to some RAM to do UDG's for the effect.

I'd add though to do true resolution you kinda had to update things a lot of times and why the code I did at the time was in effect doing 8x8 more work - hence was about 2 mins just to draw vertical line. Just not enough processing power to ever be of use. Though the remap the interupt into RAM and char set was good and lost no performance and indeed you would expect it to be slightly faster with the old RAM vs ROM access times, but kinda mute back in those days of when RAM was faster than the CPU's.
The benchmark here is employee threats. China does not threaten Apple employees located in their country, nor do many other authoritarian countries. I don't think it's unreasonable to pull out of countries that present clear and present dangers to your workforce.
