One thing I've learned from doing side projects is that; If you're not going to spend any time/money on marketing then stop giving your projects obscure names.

I know we programmers want some Googly names that is not currently in the dictionary but no one will EVER find it and it's very hard to grow organically.

If you're not making any money it doesn't mean your product is bad. It mostly means people can't find it. It's highly possible to make at least +$100 more just by using a name that a normal human would search for. Do anything so that people will can find it easily.
You can use IfFile to gate the TLS part of the server until the certificate file exists, if you really don't want to edit your config files during TLS bootstrap.
> It can only happen by consensus: that is, if everyone agrees

Ok, and if everyone uses a "consensus" to kick someone out, based on race, that should not be allowed, and the government monopoly on violence, should be used to enact legal arrests or fines on those people/communities.

The law should come in, and prevent this group from kicking people out, based on race, even if they have "consensus".

> then maybe this community isn't for you

Maybe communities that are engaging in actions that break individual rights, that are protected by law, should be shut down by the government, or arrested, or fined, for breaking anti-discrimination laws.
This is a per-car math.

It doesn't have to be a Tesla car.

The math works just as well for Ford robotaxi or Waymo robotaxi.

I don't know what time of day it was filmed. Maybe most people were working? There definitely were people around, at various points in the video.

If I look outside my home at any random time of the day, you typically don't see many people either. Perhaps a few children if its the right time of day and weather, but on most days there really aren't that many people around. The video had more people.

Yes it's one thing to see a chiropractor for back pain or posture, quite another to believe that spinal adjustments can cure disease or infection.
Maybe we can. If you assume the mind is the constant in our reality - opposite to the traditional view, in which the physical world is supporting the mind - then we should be able to move into a virtual one. Maybe we're just layering worlds on top of each other, and old ones can become irrelevant, forgotten and disappear. Our current world could be just a virtual one, built on top something long forgotten, and will in time vanish when we move into Minecraft.
I don't think most of us are in the top 1%.

Median net worth in my state is ~$800,000. I'm worth quite a fair bit less than that, so I'm apparently not even in the upper half. (I'm a SWE, I've worked, at times, for large tech companies, include one in FAANG, who paid in line with about what I'm earning now, adjusted for experience.)

(Nationally, the median net worth is $121,000 (!) — so I'm upper half there, but still not 1%, since 20M Californias are worth far more.)

Reminds me that one of these days I should work out the day I became net-worth positive… (since, like many Americans, I started with a fair bit of college debt…)
Does whatever work on Android too? Because that's technically Linux, that's what I believe GP was referring to. I believe Android actually has a totally different graphics stack.

Obviously both.
Rudy sat there in an interview on TV claiming that he had one of Biden's Macbooks in his physical possession and proudly displayed it to TV cameras.

It was a Windows-based LG machine. I can totally see how a 70 year old grifter wouldn't want to spend the money on the correct prop for the media.

Somehow, I'm supposed to simultaneously believe that a guy with sensitive material on laptops worth literal millions is just going to drop off multiple machines and never pick them up.... and that a Mac repair guy isn't smart enough to identify what is and what is not a Macbook.

Maybe the reason nobody believes Trump or his henchmen is because they lie so much. Stranger things have happened. As it is, all evidence about this entire ordeal points towards Trump's team trying to Benghazi Biden. Biden wanted a corrupt prosecutor out of power for the same reason that virtually every other leader of the western world did: dude was corrupt.
I think it’s more emotional than rational. The whole feeling around Java and the JDK is just proprietary.

When I want to use Go, Rust or Node I just go to the website and download it. When I want to do anything with Java I first have to agree to a license agreement.

Then the whole thing of working with Kotlin and Maven just feels off (I tried). Like people working in those languages work under a completely different paradigm from me.
Using Gitpod to Create a PR
You are describing the web developer today.
> No software developer actually collaborates with a customer, because software developers have never cared about a customer. They care about their precious code, their algorithms, their design, their bugs, their tests. They don't care if the customer hates the software. I have literally never heard a developer utter the words "so how does the customer like the software?" This whole rule of customer collaboration is just an excuse not to have to think about a contract.

You need to start working with better developers. Where I’ve worked, developers consistently and often push back on Product Manager requests when it feels like they aren’t solving the user’s actual problem.
Kind of. It took nearly two minutes to drive that skinny main though three skinny boards. A metal brad of the same size would go through that would in 3, maybe 4 whacks.

I've been to Ecovillage on a few occasions and it's a very walkable community. And not only that, it's about a 20 minute bike ride to downtown Ithaca. The town is quite walkable and bike friendly, if you don't mind the hills of course.

The video doesn't take you through the entire community, but I'm not sure why people are left with the impression Ecovillage is in the middle of nowhere.
Time to stop pandering to the exurb-barfing petit bougieoisie and do Fed Reserve accounts at the Post Office.

Lending can still be franchised out, but there's nothing interesting about running a big RMDBS that it shouldn't be a state monopoly.

As far as analytics go, there is no reason we can't simply have interfaces to plug your fed account data into whatever 3rd party service one likes.

This reminds me of an issue I had when pushing 64-bit integers from a C# stack down to JS. Lots of weird issues, which I finally tracked down to the fact that JS doesn't have full 64 bit precision for numbers. IIRC it's something like 56 bits.
> Walmart revealed that the product was new to the chain and being sold as a test in a limited number of stores.

i wonder if this is simply testing how well it will sell or the accompanying marketing or if walmart actually does some kind of consumer product safety motivated canary style rollouts? pretty unlikely, but would be cool if they did.
This is kind of what I mean. Let's say we could quantify "suckers" - some gullibility curve that goes from 0 to 1 over percentiles of the general population. Say that ads and propaganda techniques keep pushing that curve left, and education and broader advancement push it right. Has it moved? Or are you saying it just looks like it's moved because we have more Florida Man articles, i.e. more visibility into the far end of the gullibility spectrum?
Actually, it's the opposite.

Autopilot comes for free with Tesla.

I don't know of any car that gives Autopilot-like functionality for free. I'm certain BMW doesn't, I'm certain GM's Blue Cruise and Ford's Co-Pilot is a paid add on.

FSD provides functionality that isn't available on any car you can buy.

Specifically the $10k pays for:

- Navigate on Autopilot

- Auto Lane Change

- Autopark

- Summon

- Full Self-Driving Computer

- Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control

Those are FSD feature that are fully released.

The beta adds autosteer on city streets.
> Tesla CEO Elon Musk has himself even said that he believes the “feature complete” version of the software his company calls “Full Self-Driving” will, at best, only be “likely” to drive someone from their home to work without human intervention and will still require supervision.

Especially given this. Even once it works, “full self driving” won’t do fully autonomous driving?!
> self-sustaining commune

They specifically said they are not trying to be an independent self-sustaining commune, but rather integrate into the wider community.

The farms are rented out (at the price of the annual taxes, so very low rent) and the community can become part of a group or whatever (didn't go into details on how it worked) to be able to get food from the farms. The community center seemed to be volunteer based, but again, she didn't go into details, I'm sure their website would have more information. Overall, it seemed to be more about living closely with people in with co-op style ownership and governance, but you still work your normal job and live relatively independent lives, not a "commune" where everyone is working together as almost one household in a self-sustaining somewhat isolated manner.

Their website is here, but I did not read through it: https://ecovillageithaca.org/
It will lead to people blindly trusting the Swiss honeypot to store all information.
It might be other forces driving their decision. Maybe the ships are booked and are already late to pickup next load with penalty clauses for delay, or the port has other costs that mean it wants to speed up getting the next ship unloaded.
And when you can find a bug reporting channel the issue gets answered by an ‘MVP’, usually with some sort of inapplicable canned response, and then closed as ‘fixed’, without actually addressing the problem.
That's a good enough description? CBD has established therapeutic effects.
Well, I don't have issues with isolating it in my own network. A separate vlan plus some firewall rules seem to be a good mitigation.

Yep. Plastics, foam seat cushions, carpet, adhesives. A nice concoction of VOCs.
> I mean if there is any library you want to be as fast as possible, it's the standard library.

To a decent extent yeah, though I would emphasize the issue isn't quite being as fast as possible (although in some cases it is, but also see I/O streams...), but rather having near-absolute correctness, and achieving high performance as a secondary goal. You can usually find a faster third-party implementation of anything in the C++ standard library. The problem is third-party implementations always cut corners somewhere, whether it's strong exception-safety, proper trait/concept handling, thorough testing of rare edge cases, extensibility/customizability, or other stuff. Even the syntactic complexity rises as a result, let alone the complexity of the actual semantics. (Even minor stuff like using difference_type/size_type instead of ptrdiff_t/size_t makes things more verbose and harder to read in the standard library; third-party implementations would often opt for the latter.)

I find that I don't need any app. I use Slack everyday so I just direct message to my own Slack. I started by writing a list of tasks that are needed to be done in the day. Important tasks are bold.

When I finish a task, I simply edit the message and put a success checkmark in front of the completed item.
That is blatant false-dichotomy. You don't need to undermine the immense level of security improvement introduced by driver signing. Kernel mode rootkits are very hard to detect and eradicate. Right now, windows kernel mode rootkits rely on exploiting vulnerable drivers (very easy to detect when vulnerable drivers are loaded). It's not just signing but MS requiring valudation. If only Linux distros required this by default (with a boot option to turn off validation).

If you wouldn't touch Microsoft open source but you would touch Google open source (say Chrome or their contributions to the Linux kernel), I would love to hear how that is different. Personally, the software I use is not a matter of ideology but a matter if the best tool for the task at hand. But your observation on how MS is using adversarial compatibility against Linux (flipping the table) is correct. I just don't see how post-systemd gnu/linux is all that different, perhaps because it is many megacorps contributing and controlling Linux? It's not exactly driven by software freedom anymore.
It's just a little bit more work to write a non-trivial program in Go than in a scripting language such as Python, so if you need/want the good tooling and you need/want the significant speed improvement, it could be a good choice.
That's fascinating. Can you expand upon that?

The article you sent is from 2019, for 2 CVS stores. This doesn’t match your claim about CVS and other retailers disproportionately closing stores in SF.

A large number of stores were permanently closed in NYC and other urban areas as well, and brick and mortar retail has been struggling for years.

> Is politics that important to you?

This is a weird response I see on HN a lot lately.

The article featured here, and the data, suggest there is more to what’s going on than “shoplifting is killing Walgreens.”

It’s not about politics, it’s about fully understanding the situation, and avoiding sensationalist responses to crime.
I’m not, but I did try for a few months. I was tired of not knowing where things were or how to get to places. Some countries don’t allow American apps to work with the same functionality because they want to protect local corporations (Google Maps in Korea doesn’t work well). Locals aren’t always kind and will occasionally try to take advantage of you. I decided it wasn’t for me when a Thai taxi driver saw that I used a cane to walk and tried to charge me without turning the meter on.
WhatsApp was around before iMessage, so it being available on Android wouldn't have prevented WhatsApp. BBM on other platforms might have.
I think you should look into why you keep ending up with such a-hole indifferent developers as coworkers. The ones I've worked with have in vast majority of cases cared about the problem being solved and didn't have large egos (too much imposter syndrome if anything).
Also it's interesting that they now canary it on drivers with "high" safety rating. I wonder if that introduces bias into the data they collect and "bad" drivers and driving environments become "out of domain", in which case the system will suck with those drivers and in those environments. Glad I didn't pay $10K for this though. Super satisfied with the car otherwise.

This is the most telling quote for me:

> I started developing scrapers gathering data. I spent maybe 2 weeks on it when I realized the level of complexity. This was too much work for just one person.

When the complexity was in the technical domain he was able to (relatively) quickly understand the scope and effort required and cut his losses.

For the other projects he's been able to constrain the technical complexity and thus "finish" the projects. But has been blind to non-technical complexity, whether that is game design, art design, marketing, or sales.

One silly little example that stood out to me was the iOS game, which has the evocative name of "Planetoid". I can imagine a space themed game where planets battle to the death. But the video shows a white screen with minimalist graphics. Isn't this a space game? What a missed opportunity to sell the game with interesting visuals.
This is like joining an MLM. Let’s assume the math holds: anybody can buy a car and make $100k in profit over 10 years. So you buy one… except it turns out that since anybody can do it, enough other people do it to drive up supply. So prices drop and you’re getting fewer rides for less money than your original equation.

The only way this doesn’t happen is if robotaxis cost more to buy or operate than it’s worth for the average person to do so.
Not quite the same thing, but I had to head home early one night recently because my phone had died (which almost never happens to me) so I couldn't show vaccination-proof. I would guess that a person's phone dying while bar-hopping is much more common than dying while dining alone (since when dining with others, you can just look at their menus).

You're not wrong that this fundamentally excludes those who don't have (powered-up) smartphones. But it's not like restaurants and bars had the luxury of thinking through and choosing to have these effective new smartphone requirements: they adapted to Covid for their survival, and the odd case who got unlucky with a dead phone is just collateral damage.
Re: Properties: What is the gain? What is the "pain point"? More typing? Can you share a language where you feel properties is a significant gain? (C#?)

Re: Streams API that allows checked exceptions. Brian Goetz has written about this issue. (Search StackOverflow.com) They did not allow because of the optionally parallel (threaded) nature of streams. If multiple parallel streams throw an exception, when/when/where/how are the exceptions re-thrown? Moving exceptions across thread boundaries is a tricky thing in any language. If you don't care about parallel streams, there are many open source projects that effective create a nearly identical Streams API but allow throws Exception everywhere. Are these open source solutions insufficient for your needs?

When I have built true absolute value operations--which has actually been pretty rare as I don't think you usually want "integers" for most computer work and are better off thinking in terms of finite fields instead of numbers whenever possible--I add a check that the result is actually non-negative (which is the kind of sanity check one would also want to write to verify you don't lose precision, saturate, or overflow in other "I am using these as numbers instead of a finite field" cases); or, if I am working with a number I know to be negative, sometimes I go with "the additive inverse wasn't the number itself", as in this code:

Usability triumphs everything. Even privacy. Either pass pro-consumer laws or compete with them using free alternatives. Why do you expect a corporation to care about your privacy or well being? They would be using small children, paying them a loaf of bread a week making it illegal to not do business with them if they could. People have rights and equality before the law , corporations not so much.
Hmm — there is a project that allows you to compile a single binary that is cross platform across Linux, Mac and Windows. Wondering if ripgrep can be compiled in such a way and that would make it very close to the portability you have with ack.

You should check it out. Definitely not as expressive as Scala for expressing EDSLs, but it has a couple of features (scoped this for lambdas and extension functions/properties that can be injected into a lambda's namespace by a scoped this type) that you can get a lot of mileage out of.

That's absolute nonsense.

Lots of other people have various levels of automation working reasonably well. None of them have the absolute hubris to sell it as "full self driving" before it's any of those things.

Waymo is doing a decent job of navigating, slowly but reasonably safely, around an insanely well mapped and limited region.

GM's Cruise products seem reasonable enough, from what I've read. They're limited to limited access highways, have some good driver attention monitoring to make sure the human is paying attention, and seem to limit the regions to "that which they have high confidence they can actually do."

Tesla, if you listen to their own hype, makes things that resemble SAE Level 5 claims, except they deliver remarkably little of it. Having charged obscenely for it in the process.

Your claim has absolutely nothing to do with the reality outside Tesla's bubble of their own making. Except, they've chosen an approach that seems more and more unlikely to actually work.
