> A Tesla without AP would have stayed in it's lane in the absence of driver input and slowed to a halt with the flashers on.

That's not how those systems work. You're confused, I think. If you let Jesus take the wheel in a Tesla under manual control it will absolutely depart your lane and hit whatever you are aimed at. The emergency features are last minute corrections to avoid an imminent collision, and they work about as well as other car vendor's products do, they reduce the likelihood and velocity of an immiment collision. They don't drive the car for you. The feature that does is AP.

You want to refuse autonomy solutions to everyone to save hypothetical bikers at sunset in Mendocino! (Edit: sorry, I got the wrong elaborate example and was paraphrasing another poster. You want to save drivers where they incorrectly countermand an incorrect autonomy decision in a circumstance where the incorrect autonomy would have been correct. Or something. But the logic is the same.)
Thanks mate. I wanted to build a no nonsense site and think I've achieved my goals for the time allotted for a weekend project.

The architecture is dead simple. Multiple times a week IMDb publishes bare bones datasets. I've a bash script to download them, format and load into MySQL from which I export two types of json files:

1) a file with all the TV shows names, id, ratings etc (shows.json) - this is what's used for search. It weighs 2MB compressed and I could certainly optimize but considering the low traffic I've stashed it for later time.

2) A file for every tv show with all the ratings and votes for its episodes. Based on your search, the specific file will be fetched to display ratings. This one file per show could also be optimized but looks premature at this stage.

You can see them here: https://github.com/dvnlgls/theshowgrid/tree/gh-pages/assets

Strictly speaking, a database is also not necessary but it serves 2 purposes: 1) I could query easily to satisfy some curious show related questions. 2) The datasets include a ton of stale data (like shows w/o episodes and vice versa), so I find it easier to cleanup through SQL.

This can be a problem on physical machines too.

Ran into an issue where on two identical machines one was showing cpu usage 30% higher. A quick `perf top` showed it was spending the majority of its time in `read_hpet` in the kernel. Found that one machine was set to hpet because the kernel thought tsc was unstable at bootup:

tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed

Only ever happened one time and we could never reproduce it. bios/firmware updates might have also helped. We still added a monitoring check to ensure that current_clocksource was tsc.

Tough luck?

What if Amtrak wanted to make trains twice as wide?

What if EDF Energy would rather supply 160V AC power?

What if it'd be easier if there were a few orders of magnitude more IP addresses?

Once you build something, especially if it becomes part of the infrastructure, you have to support it, often for a longer time than you'd like. When you get to a certain scale and level of societal/economic importance, the support required of you as a company should be enforced by society.

Scale brings many benefits but also should come with certain expectations and commitments. We are very bad at making tech companies play their part in this.

What's weird is that microsoft had a fairly sophisticated crud application generator in visual studio for a while called Lightswitch but I guess it was slightly too geared to end user programming for developers to be interested, but at the same time, being in visual studio it was a non-starter for non-developers, and they ended up killing it. (And now they are instead pushing Power Apps which is part of office 365 and not based on .net)
I personally find myself reaching more and more often to SQLite as an in-between. I like having access to basic SQL and not needing to care about filesystem details for reliability is nice. And it is part of Python standard library so I need literally nothing added.

Agreed, the term "trust science" is not what we need, at least as commonly used. It should be understand the scientific method, which helps put claims into perspective in terms of confidence in claims.

I think you parsed it correctly - author is saying you can’t get away from 600ms latency and limited bandwidth given where they live.
Yes, also heard that a german steelmaker is doing the same - I wonder much more why no one is pushing the "cheap green energy production" thing. But maybe, the returns would be too small for the huge investments necessary (3+B at least, e.g. largest indian solar park). The key problem imo is that co2 certificates are _still_ too cheap! Green energy transistion need to be incentivized massively but no one is moving politically. I really hate it when on complex points like these conspiracies are stated, but the lobbies simply are too strong on everything which makes me mad. Its some simple game theory, a few players will push for mid-term return and ignore long term (100+ yrs), thats why regulation is necessary and lobbies need to be regulated / bounded too!

I think this is a pipedream. The problem with CRUD is it's never just CRUD. It's not about the records, there's always some higher level workflow invovled. That's why there's teams, requirements, all those goodies of software development.

We've had simple solutions to CRUD apps for decades, tools like Foxpro and Access. These are great tools that do let non-developers write and distribute CRUD apps. And yet I've made most of the money in my life replacing these apps with real apps because CRUD is not the problem, workflow is. And I've yet to see one of these workflow engine things actually solve somebody's problems.
Ask HN: How to organize ideas when switching between brain-intensive projects?
I'm able to work on multiple sorts of small tasks along a day. I usually organize them into related chunks, so that I can operate on them more efficiently, but I don't have too much trouble on doing the mental "context-switching" involved.

However, everything changes when it comes to projects requiring substantial mental effort. It may be hard to begin but, when it gets momentum, it's hard to stop. I can work on a project for days, weeks, even months. But it gets really hard to concentrate on other tasks. And especially hard to work on another project of the same magnitude.

I realized that for the first time when I took the huge mistakenly decision of starting a company during my masters. I could do a decent volume of work during those years, but my inability of working on them in parallel brought many sorts of problems to my life.

Sometimes I think I simply shouldn't undertake more than one big project a time -- and I don't feel devastated about that. However, I still think that it would be good to have such an ability and, so, I'd like to know from you guys if you have some strategy.

Things I've attempted:

- handwriting my thoughts: Sometimes I feel that I can't unload my working memory, maybe due to an unconscious fear of losing all the ideas. It seems that writing the ideas down helps me to "convince" my brain that it's safe to let all that information go.

- doing a bit of over-planning, breaking down a bigger project on smaller, yet sub-optimal tasks: that is probably not the most efficient way to conduct a project, but, by transforming it on a stream of easier tasks, they require less mental resources. Besides, it prevents me to become too "passionate" about the project -- again, sacrificing efficiency for other important things of life.

Do you also face such problem? Do you have something interesting to share on this regard?

The bool category is not involved in this. True and False are the initial and terminal object (related to limit and colimit, but not the same thing) of all logical categories as I call them, of which there are many (one for each set of axioms that you might construct).

1. Ordering is not required for a category to be a category, the necessary requirements are just the ones listed in the beginning of the book. It is just that orders can be seen as categories.

2. You can express "A or not A" in intuitionistic logic it is just that it is not necessarily true. Also, not sure how would you express that or any logical relation in set theory.

At least on paper they can't investigate against any random people. Germany is still considered a nation of law.

They need to report to that panel on secret service affairs in parliament I've mentioned, and there are laws in place for what they are allowed to look for (even you could construct something arbitrary at any time against anybody as we saw in the past; if someone needs a reason for an investigation they will find one for sure).

On the other hands side, as I said, as nobody can really control what they're doing hell knows what kind of data they collect. If someone (like a board of inquiry after some scandal) asks to much questions and wants to look into things they would shred the records likely again, and every involved person "couldn't remember" anything (that last thing is a common trope before parliamentarian boards of inquiry anyway).

In my personal opinion, philosophy is about understanding what the questions even are and creating the tools needed for this understanding. So philosophy seeks to codify the questions and provide frameworks for answers to be framed in.

All the sciences have questions that do not have answers.

It's gotten worse.

They prominently use SSO, encourage the use of their app, and embed dozens of trackers.

They're actively trying to develop social features and get people to embed their identities.

This creates stickiness, a moat, and aids monetization.

Look to Twitter. They're forcing phone number association and blocking valid accounts from logging in without one. This will happen to Reddit too eventually.

I'm very pro self-driving cars (and Tesla), but there isn't data supporting the claim that Tesla's FSD system today is better than normal drivers. Elon has made some imprecise claims and never provided the data to back any of them up.

I do think it's reckless to not publish their data and allow public discussion of the tradeoffs. Tesla is subjecting everyone on the road to their interpretation of the data that these systems are ready and just saying "trust us".
If my options are to be forced to have the medication or prevented from having it, I’d rather be forced to have it. It reduces my risk by half so why not?
Flashing the red brake light is a North American thing. Over in Europe you would have a dedicated amber light and I expect there is a different light than the Union Jack which would be reserved for combined rear and brake lights only.

I’ve seen a mini with these lights recently here in Ireland and I’d expect the driver may find their car burnt out sooner rather than later.
I asked ProtonMail about this article. Response:

We have read the article that you linked carefully and we have to say that what they claim is truth is based on bunch of assumptions and mis-interpretations.

We will try to comment on the accusations in the same order as they are presented on the web page.

1. ProtonMail offers the users to log into their account through our Onion site due to privacy reasons. Some users simply prefer to use TOR and we allow them to access their accounts through our Onion site. The fact that we have an onion site does not automatically mean that we are linked to CIA. We are not related to CIA in any way, nor we have any backdoors that would allow anyone to access anyone's messages. We also do not allow sign-ups from the Onion page as part of our anti-abuse measures.

2. The claim that we do not use end-to-end encryption is a lie, and in fact, the author of the article that you linked has also linked our explanation on this topic.

https://protonmail.com/blog/cryptographic-architecture-respo...

ProtonMail uses zero-access encryption to store the user's messages on our servers and we certainly use end-to-end encryption.

https://protonmail.com/support/knowledge-base/what-is-encryp...

https://protonmail.com/blog/zero-access-encryption/

3 and 4:

Proton Technologies is majority owned by employees of the company, and is solely under Swiss jurisdiction. Information about the company and our directors are in public record, and can be found in the Swiss commercial register: http://ge.ch/hrcintapp/externalCompanyReport.action?companyO...

Regarding VMS, VMS is not an investment fund or investor. It's part of MIT (http://vms.mit.edu), which is an university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As a company heavily focused on cryptography research, we do share research with many of the world's top research institutions, including CERN, MIT, ETH Zurich, and several other research institutes. This is actually a benefit as it ensures that our technology is thoroughly checked by others to be certain it is secure.

5. The present employer of people that used to work for us in the past does not mean anything.

6. If someone uses EML files, that cannot mean that they are automatically related to CIA. EML is a file extension that is used for an e-mail message saved to a file. EML files are widely adopted.

7. This is not correct, because we do not have access to our user's messages, nor the means to decrypt them.

https://protonmail.com/blog/zero-access-encryption/

8. We have used Radware in the past for DDOS protection, but they never had any access to any data.

https://protonmail.com/blog/a-brief-update-regarding-ongoing...

https://protonmail.com/support/knowledge-base/email-ddos-pro...

9. This is not true and we don't see how this claim is a security concern of any kind.

10. We are unable to comment on this.

It's not mistakes in the code, but oversight in the design that worries me.
Lightswitch was also based on Silverlight, which was a momentum killer for its adoption. It also didn't help that it was discontinued just a few years after its release, and went into 'support mode'. I believe the team developing it just got folded into other parts of the org.
I think self-reporting can provide some evidence, but of course it's much weaker than many other study methods. But even within survey studies, there are degrees of quality. And studies that sample undergrads in psychology classes (like the one you linked) are of particularly poor quality and generalizability. To me, that only barely counts as research at all.

That doesn't mean psychology in general is pseudoscience. But it does mean this is a bad study that tells us almost nothing, and if this is representative of the quality of studies on the love languages overall, then we basically have no evidence one way or another about them.
Great formulation.

One could also say that logic is the study of what is not disproven.

I have seen all kind of indicators while driving in Europe, and they all share the same basic thing; a flashing light indicating in which direction the car will be turning.

I think you misunderstood the point.

If it becomes possible for users to access the product without also driving ad revenue, they will soon discover that the service they offer to users is just as much a part of the core product you describe as the ad platform. Without eyeballs, ads are worthless.

Then there are two choices:

1. make people pay for that service directly (i.e. acknowledge as a product, separate from the ad business); or

2. make the part of the product with ads good enough and palatable enough thast users keep visiting.
