Depends on the location. You usually don't release wide landscape shots if that's a major concern, but super localized photos aren't necessarily an issue. Not all areas take the same degree of precaution though (e.g., scheduled monuments in the UK are pretty much public).

Anyway, if you'd like an example of an "onsite" photo, I've uploaded one from an ancient settlement (2k+ years old): https://i.imgur.com/0ITzYZD.png

Bonus points if you can figure out which country it's from or better yet, pinpoint the location to within 50 miles.
> booted into BASIC if you didn't insert a disk into the 5.25" floppy drive.

That's true. The PCs had a BASIC in ROM and a cassette port. That was dropped starting with the XT, which gave the puzzling "NO ROM BASIC" message in 80-column text when the hard disk was not bootable.

If France joins, will the grouping be named FAUKUS? Sounds very weird...
Somehow any new measures will end up penalizing the middle class either directly or indirectly and not touching the ultra wealthy despite the politicians claiming loudly otherwise.
> but % of people with, say, reliable connections

Agreed. It's hard to really know how useful these stats are. First, who are the people using speedtest.net? I'd assume there is some kind of bias in the person using speedtest.net. But also, if you can't get any broadband, does that count against the stats?

Second, what's the distribution? Is it some people with 10Gbps+ and then some with 1Mbps?

Third, how is upload factored in? With e.g. video conferencing/home office/remote learning, symmetric internet is becoming more important, and latency plays a part.

And finally, how expensive is it? Personally, I think it's not great claiming e.g. Monaco has amazing speeds if a lot of people can't afford it.
Excellent article. The part about "setting boundaries" is worth the "price" of reading it, all by itself.

Documenting bugs so they can be fixed: now that is probably no different from a commercial software setting, where I worked. I have mixed experiences with that, so some (probably) intensely controversial observations:

If the user just reports "it broke when I did X" and you do X and it doesn't break, is that the end of the story? What if lots of people report similar-sounding bugs?

Too many developers and PMs are happy to stamp it "not reproducible" and move on. I think the dev should take it as an opportunity to insert more diagnostics to catch it next time. If it's an online service, then you will have the logs available.

If it's client software, you have to ask the user to save them for you (but if they're so entitled that they refuse, you have every right to write them off). Some people will get into the adventure and try to help you out, and you can be glad you gave them a good experience!

Columbo should be the role model. Someone got murdered and I'm going to solve the crime, no matter how long it takes. Obviously you can't do this for every random bug that comes in, but if you never do it, you're in the wrong profession.

All the time in one job at Google, Drive and Docs would f&ck up (and we all used them all day). No one I worked with would ever report them, because "Why bother? They're just going to stamp it 'not reproducible' anyway."

I had one memorable exchange where I suggested upping the log level so they could diagnose it. The PM said that was impossible -- the logs would be too big. Maybe they could up the level just when I'm the user? Nah, too much trouble.
The Hot Wheels website itself is basically unuseable for me
Yes, it's weird that car decided to turn right. But I don't agree that's it's easy to speculate that it would hit the pedestrians, they were pretty far. I would think some emergency braking would take over or something. We have many thousands of tesla cars out there, lots of people are making videos about autopilot, but I don't think we have an example of a car actually hitting a pedestrian?
It takes a jury of peers to interrogate properly.

So, the same / similar data fed to the same / similar algorithms and the state of the code examined by qualified experts (programmers).
Indeed, thanks for noticing the hilarity! :D
> When people complain about lack of PWA support on iOS Safari, usually the #1 complaint is lack of Web Push

Good, web push is horrible and 99.9% of use cases are malicious. Take a look at your grandma's Android phone and she probably has 12 Chrome notifications saying she won a free iPad because she went on a site that asked to send notifications, and users are so used to user-hostile UX's that force you to agree to everything to use the site, they just hit "allow" so they can get to the content.

I'm not surprised Apple doesn't want that on the iPhone.
Maximise the video and watch the left hand HUD pane from 0:10 to 0:11.

The dotted black line coming from the front of the car (which I am assuming is the intended route) quickly snaps from straight ahead, to a hair pin right, to a normal right turn.

Ignoring the fact that the right turn happened to be into a pedestrian crossing with people on it - what was the car even trying to do? The sat-nav shows it should have just continued forwards.

I am astounded that software capable of these outputs is allowed on the roads. When could crossing a junction then taking a hairpin right back across it, ever be the correct thing to do?
Go to website. See that it doesn't respect the user (auto play video ads that follow you around, or whatever bar you set). Go some place else. There really is no need to give time and attention to sites without a modicum of decency.

I also wouldn't get a punch blocker just so I could visit a bar where the door man punches every guest in the face.
> This story is sufficient to demonstrate that Russia is a "sham democracy"?

It's just another example among many. Russia is a sham democracy because the government takes action to prevent opposition politicians from gaining power.

> Does the fact that Twitter/Facebook/et al banned the NYPost in the run-up to the 2020 election as well as preventing people from sending links to NYPost articles in their DMs "demonstrate" anything about the US?

I sense you think it shows some kind of equivalency, which is not true. Actually, if those organizations had to run the NY Post story, the US would be closer to a sham than it is.
Why don't wealth taxes work? Which countries repealed?
FB recommends it to prep for interviews with probability/stats requirements (Product/DS/Analytics)
The US also repealed its wealth tax promptly after introduction in the 90s.
Parents hated the Walkman. They said pretty much the same thing we say about the youngs these days with their devices: they're "tuned out". And, to be honest, they were right. We put on our Walkmans and listened to our mixtapes, ignoring social interaction. This was a major cultural change, and personally, I think this is a significant reason my generation (GenX) became known as the "slacker" generation.
It's possible that the courts/law are so absurd that they could be wrong. Rarely is that considered.
You can tell how close we are to complete collapse by how hard they agitate for outright wealth confiscation, and how sloppy they are with their attempts at intellectual sleight-of-hand.

Like clockwork, from a historical perspective.
When you wake up do as many push-ups with good form in the morning as you can, then squats, and round it out with a morning walk. You can fine plans online for half marathons, I did one last year by myself and tracked it with my watch because the scheduled ones were stopped for CovId. Consistency is the key, do as much as you can without hurting yourself. In many places they have running clubs and groups so you can make it a group activity. At your desk you can find exercises to do, and do a few everything you compile or hit F5 etc.
That's definitely illegal and definitely happens all the time.

Except it usually happens when the pedestrian has already passed the area where you'd turn through or the intersection is enormous and the pedestrian just started crossing the other side.

I'd expect FSD to follow the law in this case though.
In related news: Top politicians across the globe switch to freedom phone. Lol
Yeah, this is written in extremely manipulative language. What was warren buffett's income in 2018? We have income tax, not wealth tax. Plus, a lot of that wealth is likely 'in' his company, which is really just fake money. I mean, I know accountants look at it and there is some overlap for taxes when doing things like options and share grants and FMV, but really, a company is worth zero until you sell it, like most assets.

EDIT:
Repeat after me: net worth increases are not income. Net worth increases are not income. I mean, I "made" $250k last year in home appreciation, but that's just fake money. If they taxed me on it, it would come out of my much smaller take home pay.

This is the big lie. Most of these asset prices are increased due to inflation anyway. In real terms, both the stock market and real estate have been stagnant for decades, but by inflating the currency, they can make people out to have 'increasing net worth' and then tax them.

Agreed, I really only ever notice a font when it makes something hard to read.
The author made a major mistake. It's a long rant about Atlassian. He should've focused just about his PTO issue when his wife got cancer. Atlassian's hiring and promotion practices are not that relevant.
TailwindCSS is the biggest jump in productivity for me in years.

I think where it shine most is when you are making your own UI and need to deploy different components/customizations, ie: If you are doing a single page site is not that obvious "why is like this?", but generating UIs on the fly for a admin backend and suddenly THIS IS THE WAY!.

TailwindCSS is like static types for UI. Note:

<button class="button"> == fn sum(a,b)

<button class="font-bold block px-4 py-2 m-1 rounded shadow outline-none text-center bg-primary-700 text-white"> == fn sum(a:U16,b:i32):Result<i64, Error>

The "verbosed" nature of both cause some hate, but you will appreciate it the more big/complex the project is.

What you get with tailwind is exact understand of each component and how it will look based on their "types"/classes.

What you get with others like bootstrap is too abstract/implicit looks that you can't figure at a glance. So, tailwinCSS like static typed programming is optimized for "a glance"/local understanding.

What is also very counterintuitive is that my tailwind pages are LESS heavy than boostrap! (true for html and CSS)
Grailed Closes $60M Series B Funding Round Led by Goat Group
If good broadband is so important to you why did to move to an area where it's not available?
I wasn't close because the driver was paying absurdly close attention. We can't say if it would have been close or not, but there's certainly no hint the car had a handle on the situation, and it's clear to see it was making some kind of mistake, even if possible a non-fatal one.
Depends if you consider property tax to be a wealth tax.
Definitely understand the appeal for first time founders, and founders who are early in their careers so don't have contacts in the industry they are building products for, but having gone through an accelerator myself, I can't really imagine going through an accelerator a second time. Maybe for second time it still makes it easier to get introductions for b2b customers? But the accelerator I went through also taught a ton of strategies/tools for getting early customers without depending on just other companies in the network using each others products.
Property taxes are a form of wealth tax
It's not because they repealed them that they don't work. It could also be a symptom of the current times in which wealthy people became extremely good at influencing politics to reinforce their position.
This is near the infamous monorail where previous versions of FSD would kamikaze into the giant concrete pillars. Presumably in response to the monorail failure Tesla updated their obstacle avoidance to handle unclassified objects.

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1437322712339423237?s=21

From the nav you can see the car is trying to go straight but swerves around some invisible obstacle. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was a failure in their new “voxel based” collision avoidance.
I played Tetris without Tetris and got a Tetris, so somehow the filtering seems not foolproof :-)
To be fair though, we do have property taxes, and many middle-class families have a substantial fraction of their net worth tied up in their house and other real property.
I think the issue is that the problem is being generalized into a 'one size fits all' sort of problem. When the issue is a bunch of items. Rural is an issue. But so is duopolies. So is poor competition. In the year 2000 I could pick from 20-30 different ISPs. Now I can pick from basically 3. Woe unto you if those 3 decide it is going to cost you 20k just to do a hook up or just say 'not available' even though all of your neighbors have it.
I think the only way to apply a metric while avoiding the consequences of the Law is to keep the metric secret. As soon as the subjects are aware of the metric, they will try to optimize it, rather than the real performance that the metric is supposed to indicate.

There is a close connection with security, say screening at airports. If you fail to keep your screening criteria secret, the terrorists will simply ensure that they do not match the criteria. One way to thwart this is through randomness. There is a long public debate between Sam Harris and Bruce Schneier where the latter tried in vain to explain this to the former, who insisted that it was a waste of resources to search little old ladies. If one of your metrics is “don’t search little old ladies”, the terrorists will discover this through time by observation. The next bomb will be carried by a little old lady.
America forces people to renounce citizenship to avoid high taxes (unlike every other country in the world where you can just leave the country), so the people who flee Warren's wealth tax will not ever be coming back.
It's getting into the weeds a little, but there are also likely differences between local vanquished populations, immigrants and their descendants who arrive voluntarily by air/sea, those who arrive voluntarily by land and those who arrive involuntarily.

Canada and the USA are close overall, but Canada's immigrants are much more likely to be educated professionals than those coming to the USA. And since Canada never implemented widespread slavery, there really isn't an analog to the experience of black Americans. I think that is a very big factor.
> they should treat it like Texas treats its grid

like garbage that falls apart when people actually need to use it? or like a regressive money funnel to line the pockets of an oligarchical captured regulatory body?

texas' power grid is not a goal any serious advocate can advance as doing anything right.
But it's not nil, is it? From a future value perspective, that chance means that the entire market can increase in value, much like the stock market.

I'd also point out that as long as more people are buying crypto, the value can continue to rise (as there's more people purchasing crypto every day). That does mean that at some point people will lose, but in the short to medium term, buying today could see increases for a while.

All crypto isn't equal either. There are plenty of coins with more usability than others, both as a currency and as the base for other technical projects. Ethereum in particular is super interesting because of the smart contracts feature. A coin doesn't have to become a worldwide stablecoin to increase in usability and value.
My kids (10yo, 9yo, 8yo) got grounded for a week for not listening and misbehaving, with no TV or tablets... and the amount of bickering and complaining about each other dropped like a rock because there's nothing to fight over.
It depends how the wealth tax is implemented. European wealth taxes were primarily on capital like stocks, which are extremely easy to move, even easier than income.

A wealth tax on land (an LVT) is literally impossible to avoid however since you can't move the land.

You should know that camels (like horses) originally evolved in North America, in far north latitudes. They're not from the desert originally, they're from the cold northern icy tundra. So needless to say they're very adaptable.
There's no reason to be condescending to someone who has real and legitimate concerns about this decision, which was apparently taken without any discussion or input from the broader security or dev community.

I could be wrong, but this overall decision to take the developer out of the loop seems to be assuming that:

1) the Go developers know the current correct, precise ordering better than anyone else. I wonder if DJB or Wietse or Schneier would always agree with all of these (and future) recommendations.

2) that perfect knowledge for this version continues to be correct into the indefinite future.

Next year, you might still be using Go 1.17 in production for various compatibility reasons, and a severe vuln is found in one of the cipher suites. (Let's say ChaCha20, as hard as it might be at this moment to believe that, or maybe heartbleed/crime/beast/etc never happened. Qualys SSL Labs' tests are constantly changing precisely because our knowledge about what is vulnerable changes.)

But, now, it is impossible for you to fix that and take the vulnerable ciphersuite out of contention, short of forking crypto/tls.
In the video there is a steering wheel symbol near the speed that is highlighted in blue. That indicates autopilot is engaged, when the driver turns the wheel to correct the mistake the symbol turns gray indicated autopilot disengaged.

Yeah, not taxing the rich also does not work. See the trillion Dollar tax break Pres. Trump and the GOP implemented. The savings were supposed to somehow trickle down to the "lower decks", but this has proven not to happen.

Meanwhile the ultra rich are getting ultra richer and the rest is getting poorer.

So lets globally coordinated tax the rich for a while in a way that they can not evade their net wealth to some other country and lets see how well that works.

Note that symmetrical gigabit connections in the US are sometimes available. Its highly dependent on the type of network deployed. If its a PON deployment there's a good chance you're going to get a symmetrical connection (AT&T, Verizon, Frontier Fiber). If you have a coax connection (Spectrum, Comcast, Cox), there's little chance its symmetrical.

For example, at my home on a residential PON connection a recent speedtest today showed ~990Mbit down, ~978Mbit up. At my office's new business coax connection just a few miles away, I usually get ~980Mbit down, 30Mbit up.
Not exactly, the mantissa is increased, but the exponent is the same as standard double precision, so it is not an IEEE quad.
I have FSD but not the beta. When cars cut across my lane autopilot will not react for a solid second or so, then proceeds to slam on the brakes after the car is clear. It does not instill confidence to say the least. From my POV it feels like someone put a debounce on the reaction to prevent phantom breaking, to the point the car doesn’t brake when it needs to.
