I've been noticing a steady regression in the effectiveness of signals on cars which seems to be caused by a pursuit of aesthetic quality over function. The lights used to be designed such that they were large illuminated surfaces (using a Fresnel lens). Now they are increasingly composed of thin lines which just don't work as well. They also seem to be highly directional. The other day I could tell a car was about to turn not because I could see the indicator flashing but because I could see that one of the daytime running lights was off, and I happen to know that happens when indicators are on. They were completely useless.

The brightness of the lights is getting ridiculous too. Some brake lights are blinding which is awful if you're sitting behind someone who doesn't know how to use the handbrake. Half the cars on the road seem like they are constantly using high beam lights on the front now. I've even flashed oncoming cars before, only to be flashed back as they weren't even using high beams. It's making driving at night really unbearable.
Just curious, but what’s your definition of “growth mindset”?

I love being challenged, believe I can change to meet most challenges I face, and enjoy looking for opportunities to improve myself. This is how I’d understood the concept of “growth mindset” from Carole Dweck’s book Mindset.

Maybe the difference for me is that none of these things are core components of my identity? It’s just a way of interacting with the world that I find interesting vs. something I feel compelled to go all-gas-no-brakes on all the time.

As far as 4 goes, ratios are a better solution to the body shop problem. There’s no need to even limit the number of work visas granted so long as the companies that are able to hire foreigners also hire the requisite number of Americans in similar positions.

There are a number of other advantages to this too. For one, it helps immigrants integrate better the more Americans they end up working with. The current system can result in silos where immigrants mostly work with other immigrants. And it helps Americans to work alongside skilled workers by giving them increased learning opportunities. It also works better for lower-paid skilled positions like nurses and scientists who don’t have to compete with higher-paid tech workers for visas.

I’m okay with giving an unlimited number of visas (background checks required) to any company that employs at least 70% Americans in each salary band. At worst, it creates an incentive to hire unqualified Americans just to get access to foreign talent, which is still a win for this country.

In Europe under emergency braking, the brake lights pulse (I think, i.e. from half-lit to full-lit) and the hazard lights flash too. The hazard lights stay lit if you stop, at least on some cars.

You think there are consumers out there who are being tricked by Tesla? Like they buy FSD and are like “what!?” This isn’t what I expected!? You lied to me!

Also FSD is offered as a subscription so you can “try it out” if you are cautious. Do people really see this as an issue?

There are MUCH worse things on the road than FSD driven Teslas - what consequence do people think will occur?

No transcoding. Jellyfin simply running uses too much ram (like 10 times plex does) so pi runs out of memory and starts swapping.
But neither GCC nor Clang did and the diff applied by Debian actually triggered the bug without fixing anything. The fact that OpenSSL also happened to be a terrible piece of software doesn't exonerate Debian.
It doesn’t need a separate project , all it needs are hosters to just agree to be behind a load balancer together.
> My wider point is precisely that people have personal responsibility for carbon emissions, in exactly the way you described.

I agree with that as far as it goes—certainly attributing the emissions to the car buyer is less foolish than attributing them to General Motors, US Steel, or Peabody Coal—but I think it's still an oversimplification, and that personal action isn't enough. And I would like you to stop using HN to congratulate yourself on how smart you are.
> No offense but you make a good argument for why china restricts access.

Oh, I understand precisely why they do it. I don't think those reasons are good, and I don't like the GFW in general. This is the same criticism I level against the policies of North Korea, for example. The policies of NK are good for a small group of people in the "inner circle" of Kim Jong-un and no one else. Similarly, the current system in China is good for the people at the top of that system, and no one else.

> Why are you so desperate to do business in china?

I'm most certainly not desperate to do business in China. My customers are desperate, and I need to be able to provide services to them.

I have similar complaints about other limitations to smooth international trade and business. Some of these aren't even political.

- The lack of proper IPv6 support -- especially by cloud vendors -- makes it increasingly difficult to communicate with some areas of the world. Multiple layers of NAT aren't a permanent fix.

- No "regions" for the larger public clouds anywhere near central Africa or from Eastern Europe all the way to Siberia.

- Poor bandwidth even to some locations that are otherwise very friendly to foreign businesses. For example, Chennai had a submarine cable cut a few years ago that caused havoc for a bunch of my customers. Their outsourced staff just couldn't work half the day. It's not a politically motived firewall barrier, but a bandwidth barrier. The effect however is similar.

> "Not proven" isn't the same as implies bottom/Falsum?

The article states: ¬A is A → ⊥.

But how would you logically express "A is neither proven nor disproven"?

It seems to me that if "A" is proven, and "~A" is disproven, then maybe "~~A" is neither proven nor disproven. Is that right? Since intuitionist logic doesn't have the double negation elimination axiom?
I don't just think it isn't, I know it isn't. I've tried it, and watched friends try it too.

Copilot is decent at speeding up some commonly occurring boilerplate in a common language, and pretty bad at anything else.

FWIW, there was also this https://challenge.openai.com/codex/leaderboard, and Copilot's 'time' was laughably bad compared to any decent human.

Does this mean that it couldn't potentially be a useful tool? No. I think it could be, and for some projects I would probably use it myself to speed up some laborious tasks. But currently, claiming it can help with anything remotely more complex is just untrue.

If you have evidence to the contrary, I'd like to see it.
In the general population no, but for the type of person who engages in antisocial behaviour I fully expect this to happen. The irony is that the they would do it while wearing a UK football team’s jersey.

FMVSS 108 still requires steady illumination of the stop lamps (including the center high mounted one). I found one article[1] staying that the NHTSA granted a temporary exception to that requirement for Mercedes in 2006. Was that exemption expanded and is it still in effect?

I don't think what the author did here (descreening) has anything to do with Moire per se. Sure, due to the nature of halftone, it often introduce Moire as the author said. But if you scan your document/photo at high enough resolution (sampling theorem anyone?) it isn't an issue in the descreening process later (which is the main topic of this article.)

Also, using inverse fourier transform to descreen is already the basis of lots of popular commercial denoise plugins (for Photoshop etc.). Most of them will automatically measure the angle and resolution of halftone matrix too.
Hmm didn’t know they use the same rendering engine, but the success rate is not the same.

The Google Sheets app is a no-go because it kept using stale data for some reason. The sheets are regularly updated via script, and the app would constantly fail to show recent data.
Loved it. What about... tunnels ?
I wish he mentioned it. My uneducated guess is that probably, again, technology was a limiting factor and it would not have been worth while to dig out tunnels because either too slow, not deep enough or too much rock.
If money is what you're after, then changing companies is the way to go.. especially right now while the market is so hot.

But if the idea of real people management, so supporting others and helping them grow and advance their careers (not just "being the boss"), is interesting to you, then these kinds of resources are great.

Good people management is harder than it looks. I've been on a 2-year journey to learn the skills required to do it well because I am no longer interested in day-to-day coding, but I like the idea of staying close to the practice and helping more junior developers grow and get better.

If you still have to code and be a manager, that sounds.. like a good reason to look for a job elsewhere.

Unless you're talking about a tech lead role where you mentor and guide, which is different.

But managing people's careers, helping them with salary conversations, HR stuff, job coaching and more.. that's a full-time job.
I never really made the connection before listening to a recent podcast with an expert on serotonin and dopamine, but do you think this is a natural effect of declining dopamine? Online searching seems to indicate dopamine declines with age and is also responsible for taking risks and motivation for both short and long term goal attainment
You can actually bootstrap a small text editor on mobile browsers using a data: URL and a tiny text editor in html (literally just a form with a text box that will download a file with the contents of the box when you hit submit).

> But sadly, the damage for COVIDSafe was already done in the first few weeks. There was no resuscitation possible.

I (the aurhor) feel similar as well. Interfacing with the media was (and continues) to be the only way problems in Australian IT projects are resolved. The Australian Government needs a Vulnerability Disclosure Policy. I would love nothing more than to be able to deal directly with engineers and have sound knowledge that critical problems will be fixed vs having to interface with the media to get problems resolved.
One possible answer is developer burnout. How many more years of high intensity coding do you have left?

There is no clear path to the real money. I stepped off that path long ago.
Typed on my phone.

Six hours of work? Lie the other 2 and call it a day.

Or, renegotiate a contract for 6 hours per day.

Given how much productivity I presume you bring, I’d lie.

I don’t feel bad about it since companies care too little (in general). If they care, then I would care. E.g. a 10x more productive engineer doesn’t get 10x the pay. I met one of these people, they lied. They worked 2 hours, shipped one hour of code in production, saved the other one to commit on a rainy day and still got employee of the year because they were by far the most productive.

You could also become a freelancer, then you don’t have to lie.

My point is: six hours of productive work should be enough.

So much. It is surprising, I know. For instance, how about Descartes' very first book? Or Baumgarten's "Aesthetica", where he introduced the idea of "Aesthetics"? I talked to a scholar recently who said that it will probably never get translated, because there isn't the interest.

This is the best answer. Qubes OS is really the only practical way to run Linux in a secure manner right now. Its isolation features are not just useful for security, it makes experimentation really easy as one of never has to worry about messing up the installation.

Spectrum may be an option in the future, and I really hope it succeeds.
Unfortunately this sort of thing is pretty much inevitable when a large org like Apple makes itself the single bottleneck for all apps. No org that big can actually serve everyone's needs

Well actually if you look at the rest of what I said, it’s that if there were advanced systems hidden behind the curtain, transitional stages of said systems would have made their way into the public realm. You can’t just jump to something as massive as full blown AI and not have byproduct tech. Consider the space race for instance, and all the resulting byproduct techs it brought. So many inventions that were created along the way that made their way into the public realm. I find it difficult to believe that any other breakthrough of similar or greater magnitude would not do the same.
It's honestly so trite to say that it's not worth studying. More accurately, constraints _can_ breed creativity. They can certainly also squash it. The only reason it's worth saying the former is that sometimes people forget because it is nonintuitive.
If you're looking for a slick cross-platform Jellyfin client in the Apple ecosphere, try Infuse. It's quite polished, and even available for tvOS- my personal motivation for using it.
The Zeroth law, which permits a robot to harm individuals if it's good for the collective humanity, is certainly cause for concern. But it's scarcely the only concern. The three laws are riddled with holes which Asimov used as plot generators for his robot stories. Consider the Solarian formulation of the first law: Robots are not permitted to kill humans [where 'human' is defined to only include Solarian.]

But even when the laws haven't been tampered with, they're still filled with holes, traps, oversights, etc. The first law states "A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm." This law requires a robot to intervene when a human is doing something the robot considers risky. A robot operating under this rule might grab you off your skateboard, because it judges skateboarding to be risky and is required to take action to prevent that possible harm ("A robot may not [...] through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm") That inaction clause could be removed, but that introduces other problems.
Don't use broken Regexes like this one to validate email addresses.
Interestingly, this is OOP advice that if generalized, applies pretty directly to functional programming. In my mind the fundamental problem with using primitives is you’re overloading the meaning of existing types, you can use them in the wrong places and the type checker of course can’t catch those misuses. You’re stuck with functions/methods that may be applied even if they don’t make sense.

This is very much analogous to failure to use newtype wrappers in Haskell-like languages to differentiate distinct uses of existing types. Same symptoms, same underlying conceptual issue.
You can actually toggle them all off in the settings. You'll never see them in a client after that.

I have no problem with Plex doing this. They're trying to show value for a service rather than just gatekeeping premium convenience features.

My problem with Plex is the utter distain they show for users by not having any sort proper bug triage. Users throw themselves at a forum that staff members rarely interact with. It's desperate.

I feel that way now but I'm only 37. I knew it was a bit soon so I went to a doctor, and turns out my testosterone is at 250 (whereas at my age it should be over 1,000).

No idea if that's something you've already explored, but felt it couldn't hurt to share.
Unless it is an emergency you practically does not get good care unless you went private, even for private the wait time is too long. I am not impressed.

It's so hard to reply without coming off as presumptuous and ignorant of your situation, so I apologize in advance. These kinds of feelings can of course be a sign of burnout that can get better with the suggestions in the article plus some significant time off that doesn't come with the penalty of having to make up for all the time off.

On the other hand, maybe it's time to reexamine when you can retire. There are a lot of forums about this, my wife 'rescued' me from feeling like I needed to work to normal retirement age after reading a lot of Mr. Money Mustache, FWIW.
Full disclosure: as a young programmer I contributed to and was co-responsible for promoting an in-house Java library which misused strings in exactly this way. I didn't know any better, I was working with some people who only knew SQL and in the relational schema every column was type char or varchar.
Part of the problem is that I'm a Software Engineer as well as a Business Analyst and Project Manager. I'm also managing a dev team, so it's really difficult to only work 6 hours a day. Hell, I can't even do all my work in a 40 hour work week.

Yes, I realize this isn't a me issue and I'm looking for other work. The problem is that I'm encountering a lot of ageism in this field too.

Don’t forget the detail that the app just flat out didn’t work on iOS and the governments advice was to open the app, turn off auto screen locking and leave the app running, screen on in your pocket.

> the solution that Wikipedia themselves would advocate is that you should publish those explanations on some site of your own, and Wikipedia could then cite it

The problem with "deletionism" is not lack of sources and citations. It's the fact some moderators don't want certain material there. Creating sources is not a guarantee you'll be able to add them back, quite the opposite.

In the past I've seen purges of all kinds of well-sourced material: law, electric engineering, literature, important CS/engineering figures. It's never because of lack of sources, it's always some subjective rule.

Actually, I've seen "the content is already available in another website, why do we need it here?" being be used as an argument against reinstating some very uncontroversial articles.

One feature I would like to see catch on is having media center software installable on a router. Plex does this[1] which means you can use the USB drive on a router to store and stream your media files without a NAS / media server.

"In my mind, the best software engineering is where you solve a problem once and your solution just works and needs no configuration or maintenance or updates."

This sounds like good advice, and that level of communication can certainly be missing sometimes.

Quite a few software projects though are one off custom jobs where the requirements have never been implemented before (sometimes anywhere) and it does make estimating based on past performance pretty difficult. It's also notoriously hard to predict all the problems you might come across ahead of time, especially if you aren't familiar with the specifics of the code you will need to integrate with (maybe you could consider that like quoting to refurbish an old house before you've looked inside it and seen the damp patch and the hole in the roof)

It does get easier with experience though, and much more so if you are regularly doing the same kind of software projects.
Then we should extend help to the entire Mexico. If Mexico is good enough place to live, then migrants should stay there. If it's not good enough, because "political reasons", then we should extend our "humanity reasons" to the entire Mexico.
