I guess my point was more that it depends on how you structure your workflow. As long as you can do reviews and kick off asynchronous merge requests, the actual time it takes starts to be come largely irrelevant in my experience (aside from the impact it has on local iteration).

These days I'm on a different project and CI ASAN builds are 33 minutes vs normal builds of 21 minutes. I'd say that extra 10 minutes is fine because sanitized builds run in parallel to normal builds & this is clean builds vs incremental.
Nobody is asking for that burden or level of effort, just not people literally out to actively exploit... everyone.

Ironically the story before this one in the "new" section is:

If we assume that "evilness" or what ever metric we use to shame FB employees is transitive, is it really possible to work in a way that is significantly better?
> Yes, it does.

For a concrete scenario: a 50/50 split state with three Congressional seats. One party will likely get one seat, the other two. Potentially by tiny margins.

There will be a major gap in representation, even with perfectly fairly drawn districts.
I want to agree with you... the problem arises because you're applying your values to those items... e.g. "yeah they're embarrassing/bad, but not really that bad"...

However, it becomes scary when the people with access are much less level-headed. There are people who think gay people or watching porn should require treatment. There have been power changes where people with drastically different views have an agenda to push, and your innocuous "not really that bad" is all of a sudden an imprisonable offense because you "think differently" and you might encourage others.
But that's just an easy argument that keeps the status quo. In a western society today may be impossible to escape some big "evil" corporation, but there's a major difference between having no choice to participate in the system and willingly choosing to work for said corporation. In the case of Facebook someone who works there may not be directly responsible for its actions if they're not at a very high level but they are directly condoning them by working for Facebook and helping further its mission.

From my perspective if I have nothing to enjoy sharing then I would prefer to be left alone.

What you are describing seems forced, like when there are several good-ol pals on a call with a new grad, waiting for him to entertain them with a story.

Talking about oneself and sharing comes with trust which comes with time (working together) and being open with co-workers, this is my experience.
Things like Elon Musk (he is the Tesla CEO) making statements about the self-driving capabilities of the vehicle come to mind: https://www.wired.com/2016/10/elon-musk-says-every-new-tesla...

You're correct about what's in the fine print. But this Musk fellow is effectively Tesla's salesman in chief, and has quite a following on the Internet.
Is this a realistic alternative to factory farmed cows though? How expensive would it be? Would there be enough land? Would it produce enough beef? Could that land be used in a better way (e.g. forests, other crops)?

77% of global farm land is used by livestock already (https://ourworldindata.org/land-use) and is a leading cause of deforestation.

This article is confusing typing with programming.

Professional, really, really high end typists exist--such as court reporters--and they do have very sophisticated, special made tools for typing unbelievably quickly.

But most programmers' quality of work is not limited by day-to-day issues with the keyboard. It is all about thinking.

There are custom keyboards out there, and some are very nice to use--I swear by my not-every-day-but-pretty-common microsoft split keyboard. But the idea that we need some amazing speed-optimized keyboard isn't accurate.

Recursion / Stacks are good for DFS traversals of a graph / tree. So maybe you could do a BFS traversal using a while loop and queue of nodes to process. I think that approach still doesn't save you any memory.

If there's a lease in place, that lease continues unabated.

If the new owner wants the tenants out, the tenants have to agree to break the lease. Otherwise the tenants can continue to live there until their lease runs out.

It doesn't matter whether these are the best options for the owner(s). They're the only options.
Apologies for the ramble-ey comment - I feel that buses are an under appreciated transportation alternative. Buses are cheap compared to any mass transit alternative, but they don’t seem to get much love. I’m happy to see that someone is putting effort into making the experience better. Is Transit/someone else also looking at the other pain point of buses that is payment processing - trying to get a bus but needing exact change or a fare card is a pain, and I usually just take an Uber instead even if my trip is along a bus route.
Correct, because they do two different things.

`which` is a standalone executable which searches the environment's PATH for the named command. It doesn't know about commands which aren't executables (i.e. builtins and aliases).

`command` is a shell builtin which tells you exactly what that shell in its current state would run.
No, you're right, none of what you're talking about works like that.

There was a traffic accident. There are a variety of "automated" driving features in modern cars: Auto-park, cruise control, auto-pilot. Any one of these features could, under "less than ideal" circumstances, cause an accident that doesn't warrant contacting national authorities. Well before any regulatory body is going to do anything, private insurance would. They're going to investigate in an effort to determine fault and facts. Was autopilot to blame, or did the user spill a cup of coffee in the passenger's seat that caused them to take their eyes off the road, etc.

The idea that a national regulatory body is going to start looking into a single car crash seems great until you start thinking about the expense that would create for the taxpayers. Bureaucracy just isn't built to be agile, for better or worse.

Similarly, if you drive drunk and don't cause an accident, nobody will know. This doesn't make it legal, and nobody is trying to argue a point even tangentially similar to that. This is a straw man, and a rather obvious one. There is no national group that would ever investigate a drunk driving crash (assuming that was the only relevant information in the case). That's a local law enforcement issue.

TL;dr- The feds don't care about a sample size of 1 fender bender with no fatalities.
The economy is already distributed via intermediation mechanisms (trade, money), whereas in the stone age people had to meet all together to barter in a bazaar. You underestimate how much work structure is simply inertia, beginning with the eight-hour day.

If there is a will, a structure for all work can surely be created where even more intermediation happens and productive artifacts are exchanged rather than physical presence. This applies much more broadly than so-called "knowledge work", it just happened first for knowledge work because it's most obvious and low-cost there.
I've worked at facebook in past. Facebook has been complimented at a number of interviews and one company I worked for very actively poached fb engineers. It was extremely clear for that company given the resume system even marked resumes with certain desirable companies and the sheer amount of fb employees we hired. I think my current one also has a bias for them. I have tended to stay in social media industry but I've interviewed for other industries and gotten positive reception with facebook. I remember once getting negative reception on going from facebook to a small lidar startup as interviewer viewed it as dropping to lower tier/prestige company.

I have not worked for Uber, but my experience at other big tech companies is they're viewed fine too for engineering talent.

As for non-engineers most of my family/friend group views facebook/similar very positively. Facebook remains largest social media by a ridiculous amount. Nearly 3 billion MAU is something no other social media company comes close. They certainly have negative sentiment too, but there are tons of people happy with them. I have worked at one company that some friends did show negative view and that was tiktok (mostly because of china concerns). Tiktok as worse then facebook in perception and even for tiktok it was still mild thing. It was never a job concern with both of them I found myself in demand anyway.
Oh it's not fool proof and there are would probably be cost over runs and you would probably need to make power produces whole for their capital out lays. There might be an nuclear incident. I feel like if the world was going to end in 30 years people would be willing to discuss more direct action.
It lists all: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-tra... and there is one suicide from mid May, and nothing in June.

It stops before July, but the emails and suicide are alleged to occur on the 26th and Sunday the 27th*, which suggests it would be there, even if it took locals time to figure out what happened.

He or the Twitter account supposedly posted the passport to confirm he was a citizen at the time, but that's just what I heard.

If you're in California, you could file an OL-316 since a citizen could reasonably expect to think that this is an example of a "traffic collision involving an autonomous vehicle", and Tesla is a licensed member of that program. At worst, they'll refuse the report for some reason or another.
No, you didn't understand what I wrote. If you are sure you're not operating on a hunch, which is certainly possible, then just shrugging your shoulders when the court does nothing is insane.

I think it would be helpful here to compare the theory of a ponzi scheme to that of bitcoin.

In the beginning, buyers buy into a ponzi scheme because of a story that the creators are telling about their scheme. As time goes on, people buy in because the early investors are making a ton of money, as the value of the asset begins to skyrocket. Later on, people buy in because of previous hype, even though returns are actually beginning to level off, people don't notice. In the end, returns start to go negative, and the asset plummets, because nobody else has any reason to buy the asset anymore.

With bitcoin the theory goes: In the beginning, buyers buy into bitcoin because of the vision and idea of a decentralized currency made by an anonymous hacker on the internet. As time goes on, people buy in because the early investors are making a ton of money, as the value of the asset begins to skyrocket. Later on, people buy in because of previous hype, even though returns are actually beginning to level off. In the end, however, due to the properties of the currency, and its penetration throughout the population, people continue to buy even though there is little profit to be made anymore. It has been shown to be a better long term store of value than fiat currency, but with similar liquidity, unlike other assets with higher returns such as bonds and real estate. It can be easily transferred around the globe and is highly divisible, making it useful for payments large and small, avoiding complex VISA networks and regulatory red tape. Due to its enforced scarcity, it isn't possible to create any more of it, and so it maintains its high price rather than simply being overproduced back down to a lower valuation.
True. I was comparing now to the days before newspapers and investigative journalism. Perhaps “post-truth” does make sense as a term, if there was also “pre-truth”, and we have left the golden age of truth.
Honestly, this reads like the narrow perspective. It sounds like western culture. And an urban one specifically.

There are cultures where you just close up shop when you've had enough income for the day. Not to mention rural communities all around the world that are more flexible about timekeeping in general.
Congrats on the launch! How is this different from amundsen / stemma?
> If something is safer than average, then it is objectively an improvement, and that's all it needs to be.

GP is asserting that FSD is significantly less safe than previously known, and only driver intervention is preventing FSD from killing more people. Personally I’ve heard way too many “FSD regularly tries to drive into that bridge pillar” for me to believe an assertion that FSD is safer than drivers without significant evidence.

Second, we’re talking about a case where even Tesla owners acknowledge that an update made their cars noticeably less safe. Even in cases where FSD is better than human drivers, which I don’t think is the case yet, we should be quite concerned about the possibility of software updates making vehicles less safe.
Plenty of folks haven’t updated, or don’t like dealing with it, or ‘lost it’ or whatever.

Most people doing notary/certification on stuff like this are used to that kind of situation, so someone having an acceptable but not ideal ID method isn’t going to slow this process down.
> "gulf stream environmentalists flying to conferences in private jets is hypocritical"

Perhaps it is. Or perhaps it's necessary to get things done. Who knows?

It's a kind of an odd argument though. That "discerning Americans" will jump on board when they see some other people doing "some things" such that it indicates to them that it must be real.

Why work through that indirection? It's so arbitrary and can be arbitrarily moved. It's a blame shifting mechanism - I won't worry about this until "gulf stream environmentalists", "china", somewhere/someone else does something that I think is enough. I won't say what that is or what I'll actually do and by when. Or if I do and I make it to that point I can always find some other "issue".

Perhaps that's the point. I mean delay and distract was the big tobacco plan - and many of the same people apparently moved to fossil fuel companies.

A more serious and beneficial approach would be to look at what climate science predicted and what happened. Then look at what their future predictions are like.

If you take the IPCC reports they have generally underpredicted the rate of climate change.

The Apple Watch already has a features that detects people crashes and calls 911. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208944:

“If Apple Watch SE or Apple Watch Series 4 or later detects a hard fall while you're wearing your watch, it taps you on the wrist, sounds an alarm, and displays an alert. You can choose to contact emergency services or dismiss the alert by pressing the Digital Crown, tapping Close in the upper-left corner, or tapping "I'm OK."

If your Apple Watch detects that you're moving, it waits for you to respond to the alert and won't automatically call emergency services. If your watch detects that you've been immobile for about a minute, it will make the call automatically.”

That has an on/off switch. I don’t see why this feature would be different.

On the other hand, there’s this (same page):

“If you entered your age when you set up your Apple Watch, or in the Health app, and you’re age 55 and over, this feature turns on automatically.”

Also, modern cars may also automatically call emergency services. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECall:

“eCall (an abbreviation of "emergency call")[1] is an initiative by the European Union, intended to bring rapid assistance to motorists involved in a collision anywhere within the European Union. The aim is for all new cars to incorporate a system that automatically contacts the emergency services in the event of a serious accident, sending location and sensor information. eCall was made mandatory in all new cars sold within the European Union as of April 2018.”

... huh? which is not a bash builtin.
they should just mix-in some poppy into it and it will magically find its way out of the country :) Seriously though i wonder whether any interaction with Taliban - they are government there, so say paying any custom fee, etc. would thus become a material interaction with an officially designated terrorist group - would make one a criminal in the most of the world.

>* Harvesting pine nuts is extremely dangerous, and labor is expensive.

30+ years ago working summer construction jobs in Siberia we'd go into the forest to gather the nuts - i mean you'd climb up the pine tree to the very very top where most of the pines cones are, and the top of the pine is swaying in the wind, and there is around you like a beautiful sea of the pine tops moving like a kind of sea waves.

Locals though would just get a chainsaw and fall the pine trees and gather the pine cones that way.
There are thousands of projects where MongoDB was selected precisely because it was a new-shiny No SQL thingy.

For some of these things, it may have been the right thing. For most of them, it was a chance to play with new technologies. I have seen multiple commercial projects where MongoDB was chosen by the developers with _no_ oversight by management (I have killed a couple of those projects, too, because MongoDB was always the wrong technology).

The original comment about the number of projects where MongoDB was chosen under résumé-driven-development is absolutely correct. That doesn’t make it _bad_; how _else_ is one supposed to get experience with new technologies than to try something new? (Sticking with Mongo after multiple data-loss incidents due to the “architecture” of Mongo, on the other hand…)
But isn't mongodb open source anyway?
For most things, it's obvious. (I'm giving a definition, not a process by which rulings can be made.)

> If you can't stop when the person in front of you stops, you're too close

If the other driver decides to randomly brake in the middle of the road (as some Teslas have been known to do), it's not necessarily the person behind's fault.
It's almost as if they have not heard of Second Life, or multi-player games.

Facebook will, like CompuServe, AOL, Yahoo, etc fade away. They won't necessarily implode, but what was a hot trend will turn into a commodity nobody cares about. Also, their role in the US elections and Jan 6th will haunt them.
