No, it wasn't.

The Court originally declined to vacate the stay in a 5-4 decision. The fifth vote was from Kavanaugh, who wrote that he thought the stay should be vacated, but wasn't voting to do so because the moratorium was about to expire anyway. That concurrence is certainly informative, but doesn't override his actual vote to maintain the stay.

The second moratorium was quickly overturned, with Kavanaugh voting this time in accordance with his opinion. In any case, the administration did actually follow that ruling.

This is taken directly from the actual decision (the first round is discussed on page 4):

Eh, kind of. I agree I could have done a better job. I was trying to quickly summarize this distinction -

A corporation literally cannot exist without a government charter.

Google is able to collect all this surveillance data with impunity due to the state. Google is able to wash its hands of responsibility for the results of its actions due to the state. Google is able to force its workers to be loyal (eg not embezzle for themselves or competitors) due to the state. Google wouldn't have such outsized financial resources without the state printing reams of fiat money.

Heading off the common retort that a private person can do whatever a corporation can do - the relevant issue is scale. It's simply impractical for an individual or a simple group of individuals to scale up to the level of a large corporation.

And yes, this definition does end up catching any corporation as an intrinsic organ of the state. While jarring (because in the US power flows both ways), this is still a fundamental truth. For example if you attempt to set up an LLC or corporation that operates at odds with government policy (eg selling drugs), you'll find out how quickly a corporate veil will be discarded. Actions that are at odds with government policy are defined criminally, and thus all corporate activity is inherently government chartered.

Of course all of this is only useful as a lemma to reach another conclusion. But that's what I was doing - why would Google ever choose to rock the boat? It's not impossible (cf Apple), it's just that there would need to be some explicit incentive for Google beyond mere citizens' hope.
Looks great! Potentially a game changer for projects that need a basemap for a smallish area (like one country), get a fair bit of traffic, but don't have budget for ongoing tile subscriptions to Mapbox or MapTiler.
You can always use Privacy Pass as quite often you're dealing with CloudFlare protected sites.

That said, if you're using your own EC2/lightsail instance you won't see as many CAPTCHAs as, say, using a commodity VPN service.

Given you can't detect a VPN per-se (if configured properly) usually the way it works is that the destination node knows you're coming from a source IP from a known VPN-supplier's well-known IP-block.

If you go for this kind of setup (running your own VPN on AWS) you're simply changing your ISP to Amazon. They still might (and probably will) be monitoring egress traffic at the very least to perform any kind of incident analysis.

I'm curious what your feelings are on Mike Burry's outspoken views on the "index bubble?"

The Index Bubble (if there is one) theory suggests that blind index investments are moving good and bad stocks all up to record highs, and that many of the components of these indices do not deserve to rise based on performance.

My own view is: there probably is an index bubble, but self-indexing is too hard and expensive to achieve so I'm still in indices. I have, however, started self-indexing at least half my portfolio with M1-Finance.
I find it interesting that to this day, a search for the phrase “Bing/DDG censored 'tank man' results on the anniversary of Tiananmen Square“ returns very few results in DDG, but several pages in Google.

I would not cite this as an example of why to use one search engine over another. It's a good example of why to use more than one search engine.
The ACLU is supposed to defend free speech. Period. Even if we hate it.

Now they pick and choose, and that's not right.

Do I like people with hatred towards their fellow humans? Absolutely not. But I don't think we should muzzle them. One day, that'll come back and bite the rest of us.

Likewise, the EFF needs to focus on the incredibly important missions of keeping software accessible and our privacy paramount. They're getting distracted too.

edit: mistakenly mentioned FSF instead of EFF. I'm clear about the distinction, it was just a mistake. Thanks for pointing it out, mig39.

Yeah the SCOTUS has basically no legitimacy left at both the federal and state level. States are routinely ignoring Supreme Court rulings and have for years, and federal agencies don’t listen to them either anymore.

> That's correct, the stock market uses information from the present to make a determination about the future. Hertz isn't buying Teslas because they are engaged in charity, they are doing it because they likely came to the conclusion that it's cheaper, or more optimal in some sense, to have a fleet of electric vehicles over ICE vehicles.

Any market participant could _already_ have gone through the same calculus. There is no new public information except the decision itself, which by this reasoning was A) perfectly predictable and B) not inherently worth $100B

Metro is owned by T-Mobile, and operates using T-Mobile’s network. Why would it be any more secure than T-Mobile?

As far as I understand, there are 3 mobile networks in the US (Verizon, ATT, T-Mobile), and the MVNO’s are just a mechanism to price discriminate. Different customers are sliced into various priorities and willingness/ability to pay, so the 3 mobile networks can most accurately collect the most money according to each individual’s ability and willingness to pay for a certain level of priority on the network.
No this is Kavanaugh trying to have his cake and eat it by saying one thing and doing another. He ducked out of making a ruling and Biden forced him to do so.

It depends on how you measure the value of these companies. If you go by market cap then yes Tesla is worth more than all of them combined.

The reason for this is that all those other companies you mention have enormous debt, whereas Tesla's debt is fairly negligible.

Tesla has 10 billion dollars in debt compared to GM which has over 100 billion dollars in debt or Ford which has over 150 billion dollars in debt.
Seems short sighted, considering it's normal in a lot of European countries to have three given names (and completely legal to have far more).
Also ran across:

> It states that for any deterministic process of collective decision, at least one of the following three properties must hold:

> 1. The process is dictatorial, i.e. there exists a distinguished agent who can impose the outcome;

> 2. The process limits the possible outcomes to two options only;

> 3. The process is open to strategic voting: once an agent has identified their preferences, it is possible that they have no action at their disposal that best defends these preferences irrespective of the other agents' actions.

> […] Gibbard's theorem can be proven using Arrow's impossibility theorem.

> Gibbard's theorem is itself generalized by Gibbard's 1978 theorem[2] and Hylland's theorem, which extend these results to non-deterministic processes, i.e. where the outcome may not only depend on the agents' actions but may also involve an element of chance.

You pose an interesting question, but OTOH exercise does not offset a poor diet. No amount of CrossFit is going to save you from a daily diet of gravy fries and chicken-fried double-double burgers.
1) Comparing Tik Tok to a single oil well is laughable.

2) If someone who owned a single oil well in time of Standard Oil could get their oil to consumers and profitably sell it, then however big Standard Oil might be, then it didn't have a standard monopoly. Of course, that's not how things work back then. Standard Oil controlled the refineries and so well owners were over a barrel. Facebook has tried to control the Internet pipes but basically failed everywhere.

In some terms of "manageability" (simplicity), yes.
Many Tesla investor-fans (including some big names) are FSD and/or Robotaxi evangelists. They believe Tesla will continue to be incredibly successful but not because of sales to the public.

Rather, the key to Tesla's success will be mass rollout of FSD leading to the Robotaxi fleet.

Which in turn will lead to the banning of personal car ownership (save for a few exceptions). Everyone will be using Robotaxis instead. And Tesla, being in a first mover position to take advantage of such a paradigm shift, will continue to skyrocket to success.

Some of the extremists want Tesla to stop selling cars to the public ASAP so that they can stock them up for the Robotaxi fleet, which they confidently believe will be here much sooner rather than later.

Disclaimer: These aren't my personal views (although I am an investor). Personally I'd rather Tesla downplay the emphasis on FSD/RT, at least until the tech is far more mature than it is now. But I hang out in a few TSLA investor communities where these views are quite popular.

yep this is fairly common where the original form-factor, a piece of paper/plastic card, was the target. The intent of capturing the name was to put it on the card, and long names can't fit so we have to truncate them or abbreviate etc.

Nevermind that that might not be your name or that in the future having the untruncated name might be useful.

Definitely a big problem for then using that data to form the base of an identity system like trusted ID compliance.

>In theory. In practice, the numbers show that these safety features aren't enough.

Where are the goalposts and what would be enough? That is not to say they aren't dangerous, but it seems the discussion would greatly benefit from some definitions and goals.

Driving and walking both carry risks and both could be safer. Last year, 6,700 pedestrians were killed by vehicles, and pedestrian fatality rate was around 2 per billion miles driven.

At what point are the deaths acceptable?

It's interesting that you call this having "very little to do with" the success. It's a philosophical argument, I guess. If there's boulder at the top of a hill and I give it a little nudge so it rolls all the way to the bottom - did I have very little to do with the boulder rolling down, since gravity did most of the work? Or did I play the most important role?

Even if it's true that selection bias is huge and the best qualified people going into a bootcamp are the best performers coming out, that doesn't necessarily mean the bootcamp wasn't useful. These people could have otherwise gone their whole lives always being one small nudge away from becoming a great programmer, but would have never realized it without the right conditions. If a bootcamp simply creates those conditions for them to make it happen for themselves, that still seems important.

They could, but then the purchases would not be independent validation. The value of Hertz purchasing Teslas for their fleet is that Hertz independently came to the conclusion of Tesla's value.
First time I flew into Amsterdam it was dusk and I was mesmerized by the seemingly endless fields of greenhouses growing weed. Only years later (after telling everyone about it) did I learn they were actually growing produce :D

Dutch tomatoes have a reputation for being bland ("water bombs"), is making more flavourfull ones just product focus? Like picking the right varietal, picking them at the right time, delivering quickly, etc?

>The founders hearts were in the right place. Brian Acton created Signal Foundation and Jan Koum like I said also have done good things.

I'm not saying they are bad people, and selling is not a bad thing either. I'm just pointing out that selling was the plan all along.

The WhatsApp story that gets told regularly (like in this instance) is a story of how such few employees and such small infrastructure is enough to build a massive product. You know what that translates to? Low opex. If they wanted to, WhatsApp would've been quite profitable if they wanted but instead they chose to sell to the highest bidder.

Again, that's not a bad thing, but also, I'm sure there were PLENTY of people that were interested in buying a billion user platform with 99% user retention. Why did they sold to Facebook? Only they know, but back then Facebook already had a tarnished reputation, so they definitely didn't do it "because of their mission and values".
I sure hope they're going to disable most of the autopilot features. The last thing we need is thousands of rental customers doing "look ma no hands!" for giggles on unfamiliar roads.

Etymologically speaking, I find the adapted meaning of this term irksome. Given that ephemera is a 16th century word[1] that refers to "transitory written and printed matter" and ephemerality "the quality of existing only briefly"[2], one would expect the standard definition for ephemeralization to be "the process of creating ephemera" or similar, as opposed to "ability of technological advancement to do "more and more with less and less until eventually you can do everything with nothing" ".

The issue here is that for a commercial venture, cost matters a lot.

USA in 1960s did not have an alternative option of using someone else's launch vehicle for a fraction of what it would cost to build one themselves; companies who want to build a commercial space station do have an option to buy launch capacity from SpaceX instead of Boeing/BlueOrigin, which would still be more expensive even if all their plans and promises materialize on the scheduled time.

Most equity investments are gambles on stock value, especially early-stage private tech startups like the ones many of us here work at.

We look at the product, exec team, and the marketplace -- and we make an educated gamble.
I think Tesla is in real danger with FSD.

The much publicized rollout, and reverts of FSD show just how little testing actually goes on at Tesla. It's a really poor look. And Elon's "that's why we're beta testing it publicly!" is the opposite of confidence-inspiring, especially given the latest roll back is due to a slew of phantom emergency braking activations and forward collision warnings. "Move fast and break things" sucks for everyone on the road when it is applied to car technology.

The Robotaxi thing, if it ever happens, is easily a decade away, no matter how much he says "this year!" "next year!".
Yes, javascript has some quirks. But most bootcamps are trying to get their students from "zero to employable developer" in a very short amount of time, and "employable entry-level developer" is almost always synonymous with "employable entry-level web developer". Given that mandate, you basically have to teach people the basics of web applications, which means talking about what happens on the client, which means javascript. And at that point, it's pretty reasonable to not spend your limited time teaching them a whole other language, especially because Node is extremely popular at the kinds of places your students are likely to work.

Also, most languages have quirks. What are you going to teach them? Python, which also has almost 30 years of baggage? Java, which requires you to spend significantly more time to produce basic functionality? Haskell, so they can gloat about the power of purity and monads on Hacker News?

I understand that javascript might not be the ideal intro language in theory. But I think it probably is the best one in the bootcamp specific use case.
The idea seems sweet. I registered immediately, but the catalog seems to be pretty empty for now. For me the biggest feature is being able to write a new client. Oh, how I wish Spotify or Tidal had open APIs...

Waterfall planning + critical path analysis was too brittle for software projects. The choices were:
1. Frequent replanning, every 2-6 weeks
2. Stop replanning and try to meet an unrealistic schedule

Agile introduced tactical planning and dropped precise schedule estimates, which did not hold up anyway.

If more Agile proponents would start with that instead of leading with the collaborative aspects of Agile, and drop the Scrum jargon, they would be better understood.

Making software is not like most other projects. Many more new problems to solve because if you already solved it, just reuse the code. That has practical consequences in project management, specifically: iterating toward the goal.

Collaborative task assignment for each iteration is important. But that's not why iterating toward a goal is how to do software.
