Data like this is difficult, yes. Ignoring it outright may earn you accolades online where cynicism is often mistaken for intelligence. But it’s just scientific defeatism.

There is no way to study this issue, and many similar in nutrition, but with observational data.

Hell, here in Sweden there lots of old houses that are in dire shape BECAUSE they received “maintenance” to keep them modern, resulting in problems with mold and insects.

The parallel to breaking working code while updating it to follows modern standards isn’t too far fetched.

California is not like other states in this regard.

First is its size. California's population and GDP are more comparable to a country than most US states. "If California were a sovereign nation (2020), it would rank as the world's fifth largest economy, ahead of India and behind Germany" [1]. California also has a larger population than Canada [2, 3]. As a result, California has a long history of making its own rules and getting compliance.

Second is that these types of California laws tend to affect more than just California. Several other US states and even some Canadian provenances have banded together with California and enforce California's regulations in their jurisdictions as well. ~15 US states and the Canadian province of Quebec enforce CARB standards [4]. Further, the national Government of Canada is cooperating with California on greenhouse gas emissions mitigation [4].

> Does anyone else perceive that the growing body of law will at some point become a problem?

Tacitus perceived it already 2000 years ago. I've basically got his take on this and, yup, I perceive it's a very serious problem. Here's what he had to say about it:

"The more numerous the laws, the more corrupt the state.".

I'd first do some research into why your old estimates were wrong - did the teams underestimate the work? Or were they right about the level of effort, but had their time and energy sucked into other things that prevented delivery?

I've ask because I've seen large orgs have accurate estimates, but lay those estimates out incorrectly on the roadmap because the product managers overestimate what percentage of time is actually spent working on the products.
Yes, it does. If you've determined the author is dealing in bad faith, everything else becomes suspect, at best.
Code reviews are misunderstood. They're not about code quality, but about programmer quality. Yes, juniors get to learn tricks from the old monkeys (I'm one btw). But conversely, old monkeys should learn to accept variance in code where the implementation is not absolutely critical.

Full disclosure; I am not a manager of anyone nor do I work in a software company. However, I work in an industry where things need to be timed out pretty well and I have to constantly provide an answer to my bosses and colleagues of the question "When do you expect to be able to do X?".

From my perspective it involves two things.

First, it is about applying the experience of similar situations to the future. I can't very well tell my coworkers "I don't know" because the work that they do depends on me getting my stuff done, especially in a timely manner. Thus, I have to draw on previous experience to say, "Well, this (or something like this) took me two weeks to get done last time so it will likely take me a similar amount of time this go round."

The second part of that is being open with expectations. Being up front with my coworkers involves me telling them that while I think this will take X amount of time, these are the complications I am facing that could have an impact on my ability to deliver in the provided time frame.

Ultimately, by applying a combination of those two things I have been able to build a good relationship with those I work with when it comes to providing estimates and expectations for delivery. Honestly, not sure how this will apply to software engineering or if it is even translatable at all, but that's my two cents.
Schedule and cost risk are always going to be present. I don’t know how you’ll fully mitigate that given humans struggle with adequately gauging risk and asymmetrical incentives in the face of low-probability events.
I find Telegram in this gray area as a messaging app like WhatsApp or Signal and public channels and groups app as Discord.

Do you really believe this? Because this screams paranoia to me. I have no idea how you got from GP's comment to suggesting they might be a political operative. I am legitimately baffled by your conclusion. Please explain.
I completely agree with it.

This is why I used Colorette for a year, promote it and send PRs there.

I mentioned Colorette in Nano Colors docs, COPYRIGHT and keep the origin history.

But when Colorette author backported my performance optimizations he refuses to do the same in return.

This law is only making the requirement for self driving cars to be electric by 2030, not that there must be self driving cars.
Ah, if your beliefs are rooted in religion then there's not much we can discuss to find a common agreement, since we're starting from very different axioms.

> I don't believe one's personal happiness is a sufficient measurement to optimize one's life around. (...)I actually think there is plenty of evidence for the truly objective to recognize the danger inherent in maximizing that metric.

I do agree that there are more things to take into account than personal happiness, to guide one's life - I could see for example how someone would sacrifice their life for a better cause for example. I just don't see any moral reason that would apply here, since the act of breaking the vows doesn't harm anyone if both partners are in a position of unhappiness. I do see however how you can see those moral reasons there, since marriage for you it's more than a symbol that you want to commit to the relationship, and it has religious implications.

> I think there are benefits to the spouses, the children, and to society to not only stick it out, but to work on improving it. One of the things that I guess didn't come out clearly in my original comment was that, if you are in the marriage for life, and you are going to honor that commitment, it's a great reason to invest in that marriage and make it as good as it can be.

I partially agree, and to be clear I wouldn't defend the position of not fighting to get the marriage to work. I just think that some of the reasons why marriages no longer work are simply not fixable by putting in effort, and that the belief that there must necessarily be a fix if only you work harder can be dangerous to - people can end up in a position where not only they remain unhappy, but also exhausted from their sacrifices and accumulate feelings of guilt since if the marriage doesn't work is because they haven't done enough.
> Unless you're doing something mathematical, where you can exhaustively test every input and output and ship something that's essentially close to the platonic ideal of the thing, you're going to need to update.

You only need to update dependencies that interact with things that change autonomously.

For the types of programs I write, that describes very few, sometimes none, of my dependencies.

Continuous updating of dependencies is valuable in some circumstances. Not all.
The Simple Reason That Time Travel Is Illogical
Or indeed draw, presumably.
There isn't any as easy to integrate as TypeScript. TypeScript isn't flawed because of bad decisions, I think the people behind did an impressive job with it. TypeScript's flaws stems from JS and its ecosystem. And I really can't blame people from trying to keep their legacy systems. JS isn't going anywhere, and of of TS's selling point is that you can easily go back from TS to JS (I'm not sure how true that is, we'll see in a few years).

ReScript (https://rescript-lang.org/) is trying to take another approach, which is being a different language, way simple and easier to use and in my opinion better than TS, but the price is that integration with JS is harder. The community is also small compared to TS. But you can leverage some work already done, as it can consume TS types. This may be what you asked for, as you can still use the ecosystem.
> Another aspect that is important but easy to miss - deaths caused by an autonomous vehicle are learning experiences - once a couple have happened there will be an engineering response and they will stop happening.

A death isn't the same as running into a stationary emergency vehicle of course, but AFAIK Tesla hasn't taken any meaningful engineering response to that issue. Assuming they will to other issues seems overly generous.

OTOH, Waymo seems to have only crashed into one bus, assuming it would move over.
So he was straight up lying?
There was no algorithm to "guide" your search, there was no limitation, no manipulation. Just you get what you see, and what you get - is all there is. Everything from there, was experience-wise a downgrade.
It would be sad if people could only chose between "Public and I commit to maintain this for all of you" and "Private and it's just for me". What's wrong with "This is public but it's still for me, you're welcome to use it if you want to but don't expect anything from me".

This is what open source is really about for me.

In a society without a history of male dominance over women, having a legislative body with more women than men would be commonplace or at least unremarkable. In virtually all societies through all of history, this has not been the case. So the fact that such a thing has now occurred is an indicator of reduced male dominance, something we should all be happy about.

With all due respect this is madness.

If by some hail mary miracle we manage to get Level 5 or even advanced Level 4 that should be the priority for the automotive industry, not electrification.

Government should throw money at the problem, because once you remove car crashes we basically won't die violently anymore...at least in the West.

Call me selfish but I am much more concerned for my safety and the safety of my family members and in general the safety of my contemporaries compared to those who'd inhabit the planet 200 years from now who'd face the effect of Global Warming.

Also as Bill Gates eloquently described in his book "How to avoid a Climate disaster" electric cars , should they come alone are basically the low hanging fruit vanity project.

We need solutions for steel, cement, farming etc.
>> I can't think of driving at night behind a car and not seeing both rear lights, and usually illuminated license plate and illumination coming from the rear window pane.

Have you ever driven in a snowstorm at night? (I am not being facetious, there are terrible snowstorms in the winter where I live due to lake-effect snow. Your mileage may vary depending on where you live.)

Visibility is terrible in a nighttime snowstorm.

Reflective surfaces are covered with snow.

Lights can be partially or completely covered so that only a faint glow is visible.

Anything that leads to confusion, such as a backward-pointing arrow turn signal light, could cause confusion that might lead to accidents. It might not confuse some drivers, but it only takes one confused driver to cause a road accident.
Nope, the rules clearly state if you die you lose.
Don't know the name of the fallacy, but there's a book aptly titled "Don't make me think", which talks about exactly this problem (for web design).

Thing like turn signals shouldn't make you think - it must be automatically, instantly recognizable in every possible way.
That's not true in even a specious way. You left out "performance" and then shot down a strawman by claiming an independent parsing library improves compiler performance.

I dislike all of Ruby's magic, metaprogramming, and that it's almost impossible to statically analyze, however I have come to appreciate how nice it is in Ruby not to have functions with 'color' like this article mentions. I certainly hope TC39 can find a way to bake in similar async-agnostic syntax to Javascript. I'm not sure if it's possible with syntax alone, or if it would require a new language.

"Self driving cars are a nice luxury, especially in city driving, not something that radically improves our world."

With truly autonomous vehicles, you can have a radically different logistics for goods, delivery services etc. You can also have specialized "sleeper cars" that get you to your destination overnight, fresh and ready.

Self driving cars can also park themselves somewhere out of sight and stop clogging inner cities.

Yea my experience is mostly (broad strokes), it's as easy as 'calories in calories out'*

*after spend weeks eating consistently, verifying your TDEE then take 200-500 calories off of it.

Then, when you prove your TDEE is something stupid outside the range of the calculator's guess, it's about your metabolism. For instance, finding out you can only maintain weight if you eat only x calories a day kinda sucks when you want to intuitively eat twice that. You're forced then to operate as a scientist, figuring out how to change it to your advantage. Where you have to watch everything to figure out what has thrown it in X or Y direction. Reverse dieting and such are also popular areas for fitness nerds, where you retrain your metabolism not to suck for w/e your goals are. (Even harder than your typical dieting.)

Like cutting out artificial sweeteners and only to sugar in moderation to keep in my carb ranges kept me more full and I ended up breaking out of my plateau even though I kept the same amount calories and macro split
Implicit in your world-view is that its the women who voted for the women.
Both here and in code, upgrading to keep up with progress of technology is good. Upgrading to keep up with progress of business - aka. ways to provide less value for more money - is bad. Old technology was often immune to value engineering simply because people didn't knew how to cut corners with it.

This is a great and well reasoned post and in general, thank you. I like the test city idea; at first I thought it was still a little risky but then I realized that this is probably one of those situations where you can't actually test or prove its efficacy without a "live-fire" environment. In medicine you famously can't conduct an experiment that knowingly exposes participants to a greater risk of death than the alternative of not participating, and i wonder if that's a useful ethical framework for this
True, you could do 1 and 999999999.
Well, Biden just murdered an innocent family in Afghanistan with a drone strike on a car to score cheap political points, to be shown doing something in response to the bombing at the Afghanistan airport that killed US soldiers during the evacuation. It's hard to figure out if any lines exist at this point, legally, for the President when it comes to commiting war crimes (and obviously George W Bush and numerous of the people in his administration should be in prison).

After Biden was done murdering innocent people in Afghanistan, then he stabbed our oldest ally - France - in the back to such a degree they pulled their ambassador in anger.

Good thing we got rid of Trump, he was super damaging to the US reputation and relationships in Europe and around the world.

The limitations of prospective observational studies will generally be the same regardless of the topic, there are few controls, a lack of randomization, and mechanisms of action are only proposed and not directly tested for (in this case the paper doesn't suggest any mechanism of action at all). This paper simply states that there is a correlation with alcohol abstinence and all-cause dementia. That claim alone is probably true, but without randomization or controls dementia can not be directly attributable to alcohol consumption because there could be all types of confounding factors. As an extreme hypothetical imagine if in a fictional society only the wealthiest .01% could afford alcohol, nearly any observational study will show better health outcomes for alcohol drinkers if you don't control for wealth. In reality observational studies have to control for many, many more factors to be considered strong evidence of causation.

From the paper: "It is difficult to provide evidence of
causality in observational research, but triangulation of evidence from alternative study
designs and across different research settings has been identified as a promising avenue
...
Among current older drinkers, the current study failed to find a consistent relationship
between alcohol use and dementia across different contexts, some of which are likely to be
subject to quite different confounding structures
Meanwhile, Mendelian randomisation
studies to date have generally failed to demonstrate a causal relationship between alcohol use
and dementia, except perhaps with respect to age of onset for dementia. While there are
limitations associated with the current study, as well as the studies based on Mendelian
randomisation, strong evidence for the causal link between alcohol use and dementia remains
elusive."
