I cross one frequently and it's still pretty dangerous because cars rarely signal roundabout exit. As a pedestrian it's hard to predict if a car will exit, and drivers are also often distracted at that moment / looking down at gps (did I take the right/wrong exit)?
This is for California, not sure about other states:

Note that whether you have a solid green or a green arrow matters. A solid green means you can turn left, but you might have cross traffic. A green arrow means you're protected and as long as other people are obeying traffic signals, you shouldn't run into other people.

Lots of drivers don't understand this.

Lots of drivers also don't understand a red right arrow (as opposed to a red solid circle) means you cannot turn right on red. Most "no right on red" intersections have both the arrow and a sign (and many drivers ignore both).

Doesn't Microsoft love using Linux for azure, and contributes to it heavily in code and money? Using binary blobs is how they can get around others using their contributions, and it seems like copilot has made a mockery of all the licenses anyway.

Oh interesting, looks like it was forked by corporations though including Trump's Truth Media, and Gab, and Truth Media just shows the boilerplate github source code. To me it still seems they love all free code.
> it adds a trusted root cert during the install process

That's a non-starter for me. I do not want an application to be able to MITM all traffic.

Surely you just need to be able to MITM certain domains (the ones of the paywalled websites you unblock), can't you just create individual self-signed certificates for those and trust them one by one?
most of those didn't exist in medieval times either. Is it surprising that most common are also most timeless?

I did not try the theme but from what I see you just lowered contrast (this famous grey on white). You are reducing usability for the sake of questionable aesthetics. From there I am uninterested to explore any further. Thanks for your efforts but I like my Wikipedia to stay the way it is now. Works fine.
The mortality rate is an externality to most drivers. Financial penalties or better designs have a more direct effect. Similar to how coal power plants kill thousands due to air pollution but don’t really care until they’re penalized financially or made to design systems to reduce emissions.
I don't think I understand it at all.
There are other ways of supporting a project than via money. You can talk about it and recommend it to others. That can often be worth more than donations to an independent project that doesn't have much in terms of marketing capabilities.
> > just run your own guard node that you trust

I guess this approach works fine for an individual, but if everyone has to run their own guard node to be safe, why would anyone connect to your guard node (given it would be risky from their perspective since they aren’t running it themselves).

In other words, if you accept you can’t trust anyone else, why would anyone else trust your node too?

I've always been annoyed by the fact that there's no page hierarchy in Nextjs. While Nextjs nowdays comes with built-in layouts (https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/layouts), it's far from a perfect solution. That's why I created and open sourced this type safe and minimal (yet powerful) layout library. Hope somebody enjoys!

I think this highlights the best path forward. Large-but-not-Manhattan cities should eliminate cars in the densest areas of their downtown, where it makes sense. Jersey City did this in their downtown area, and it seems to be going well.

As people who want to live without cars move to the downtown zone, the area adapts to meet their needs (in terms of the types of stores etc). If the policy proves popular, the city has the option of spreading the "car-less" zone as the dense urban core grows. Similar to suburban sprawl, but inverted, I suppose.
> In the motorcycling world oncoming left vehicles are basically the "Jesus take the wheel" scenario.

Years ago I nearly creamed a motorcycle after looking pretty much directly at him. The angles we were converging at meant that he basically disappeared into the background because there was no relative motion. Probably scared the crap out of him, and it certainly scared the crap out of me.

That was when I started moving my head back and forth coming up to an intersection where I'm going to turn, because it introduces enough of a perspective change to make a moving motorcycle stick out. It's exactly the situation described in the fighter pilot article. The human brain is amazingly good at stitching together what appears to be a complete scene while actually losing pretty sizable chunks of it all the time.

The other times I have close calls were 100% coincident with having a full car of passengers. I think we only have a certain amount of bandwidth, and taking up a bunch of it with noise reduces what's left to devote to vision. I also turn down the radio when I'm coming up to an unfamiliar area, or a situation that is obviously going to be complex to navigate.
That's incorrect.
If you work with mid-sized neural networks and MCMC sampling, allocations start to play a significant role (And Flux.jl is bad at preallocation).
Prealloc.jl does not work properly. Zygote.jl adds even more allocations to the mix...

Jax/XLA completely solves this problem. Yes, it's annoying that you have to work with a static graph but if your problem fits the description... it's great.
> People didn't know who has right of way and it led to road rage confrontations so the government had to add stop signs to them.

“Yield to traffic in circle" clarifies things just as well, is commonly used, and restates the actual right-of-way rule applicable to an otherwise-uncontrolled roundabout. An amateur generalist politician like most city councilors and mayors I can see thinking stop signs are the answers, but presumably they had a roads department with at least one professional to consult, so one hopes that there was more at issue than people not knowing the rules if they chose stop signs.

> IMO the problem with modern cars is the airbags in the A-pillar. The pillars have gotten so wide that you have to consciously bob your head around back and forth (like a fighter pilot, of course...) to look around both sides of it.

Exactly this problem caused me to nearly kill someone the other night as I turned right around a roundabout (I live in the UK: we drive on the left, driver is on the right of the car). Nearly nailed a guy crossing the road as I came off it because he was hidden by the A-pillar. Fortunately my girlfriend, in the passenger seat, spotted him and yelled, otherwise he'd have been toast.

The car has collision avoidance functionality but it didn't spot the guy either. So, yeah, airbags or not, I am not a fan of thick, heavy A-pillars, and especially because you can't rely on the car's "smarts" to bail you out if you do fail to spot something that's obscured by them.

Nice, when we started playing with some financial engineering we also noticed that vesting could be any unit of time.

So we did grants with super low cost basis (it was very early there was nobody else to placate), and the recipients did 83(b) elections to recognize the income at the low cost basis, so when they exercised at fair market value soon after it wouldnt be income at that point in time, only capital gains when they sale (which is offsettable much more easily than income, or gets a lower tax rate if you hold it ling enough anyway). This just nullifies a big income tax bill.

In the grand scheme of things, basically nobody needs these things. Sorry, your app is overengineered.

Your app actually suffered in areas such as performance, security, portability, complexity and cost.

Developers love to prematurely optimise everything. Most SaaS products today don't need a dedicated database server. Most apps that require a database server backend would be better with sqlite, most Dev/test/staging/prod pipelines would be better served with sqlite files.
This varies somewhat based on locality. In Oregon, for example, there is no special significance to a red right turn arrow. If a right turn on red is not permitted, there will be a sign.

It is absolutely possible (and effective, depending on what you consider to be an adequate ROI) to apply this sort of heuristic to this domain.

The "holy grail" of a universal AMT that works with any number of instruments of any type played concurrently isn't exactly an intractable problem to begin with, but if you constrain the problem in various ways (to specific instruments, to known tunings, etc.) you can definitely take advantage of a priori knowledge about the "timbre" of the instrument and the way in which the sound wave evolves over the duration of the note/notes to work-around what would otherwise be more ambiguous data. The octave/harmonics problem is one example of the kind of problem that is much easier to eliminate (relative to the abstract case) if you can make assumptions about the type of instrument that is generating the sound.

The overtones generated by the vibrations of a guitar string (for example) follow a fairly specific and distinctive pattern. If you dig a little bit into the physics/mechanics by which a given instrument generates sound there is a lot of tell-tale information to take advantage of.

As a member of a DAO, this is almost-right.

A DAO isn't necessarily an "application"; it's more of a concept, an idea.

There are a bunch of tools/applications that facilitate the operation of a DAO. I wrote a blog post about this: https://blog.juicebox.money/dao-tooling-101/

In the case of the JuiceboxDAO, I contributed funds (ETH) to the DAO treasury (bank account), and in return I got $JBX (a token that lives on Ethereum). I have about 40,000 JBX tokens. With these token, I can:
- use it to vote on proposals.
- "burn it" in exchange for some ETH back (but probably not get my original investment
- sell it somewhere else (an automated market maker like Uniswap)

One way to think about this is that people should donate based on value that they've already gained from the project, not additional value that they expect in the future.

That said, for an active maintainer who is currently accepting donations (ESPECIALLY recurring donations), making a good-faith effort to deliver on requests from supporters (certainly bugs, and ideally features) is expected. Failure to make that effort doesn't mean you owe anyone anything, but it might mean you're a jerk.
