The US owes most of it's economy, assets, innovations and global respect due to it's military, starting from the world wars.

If I could place wagers and know that someone else would cover my loses… well I might be inclined to make a lot of risky wagers.

Yea, years of low inflation and somehow 6.2% is "inflation" during a multi-year pandemic. Up until the 90's, that was considered normal. When my parents went to the bank to buy their first house, the interest rate was double digits. 6.2% is noteworthy but pretty minor given the disruption we experienced and still are experiencing.
Even if they don't cover the instrument cluster or the pseudo cluster, the screen is the main interface for the driver. Even though the passenger may interact with the display, the mandatory functions of the car and even required secondary functions are built into the display and thus it would result in a primary usecase for the driver.

Drivers don't need more distracting nonsense in their main line-of-sight.

My main response was towards the 3 & Y, but the S & X still use the center display for secondary functions with the driver.
A lot of recommendations here, so I would like to ask for some (hope that's allowed).

- Operating Systems. I had a course on OS (I'm a student), but I felt it was kind of lacking, and would like to explore more.
- Compilers? Seems very interesting

Also I've started with a bit of haskell to learn functional programming, would love some pointers from the more experienced people here :D

(Also networking?? So much to learn lol)
And the cheapest source of electricity is coal. So its not like your EV-powered vehicle (largely using coal to power itself) is much better.

In any case, widespread electrolysis of Hydrogen is well researched and well on its way to being achieved: https://www.energy.gov/eere/fuelcells/hydrogen-production-el...

There was a good article or two on some systems developed that were direct from solar-power into hydrogen, skipping the inefficient electricity steps.
This is just an anecdote. Smart tech is a net positive for your safety in general. There have probably been millions of times where auto location transmission has saved lives or prevented harm. Companies don't have to invest more resources in testing. They already have metrics to prove their product is as functional as it needs to be.

> I'm supposed to trust that a phone will do the main thing is built for, and place the call, and let me speak to the human on the other end.

We are not in 1990. Smart phones are only similar to phones in that they have "phone" in the name.
a) You're implying that we use sale prices to set the assessed value of property today; I believe that's often not true. I happen to have the tax slip for a property in front of me, the assessed value is about 80% of what I paid for it five years ago. Assessments are already inaccurate, because they're more a product of politics than science; a LVT wouldn't magically fix that, but AFAICS it wouldn't necessarily make it worse.

b) You may not be confident in your ability to distinguish the value of the land from the value of the structure, but your insurer is. If you want to know e.g. how much your home's value would improve if you finished out the basement or built a garage, they will go through it with you on the phone. Sure, it's something of a guess, but a very educated one.
I think there’s active SEO to trick users.

> claiming early Linux image processing with ImageMagick is irrelevant

It is at relevant, because this is about why imageMagick has such prime namespace on linux.

I don't have any idea why you are going in these seeming random directions, I'm not promoting linux, or whatever else your going on about.

This is my original statement

> Image magick has been around for a pretty long time, and was doing image processing on linux before most had considered it.

Surely we can both agree part below is a fair and accurate statement

> Image magick has been around for a pretty long time

This next part, is the part that seemingly needs clarification

> and was doing image processing on linux before most had considered it.

When imagemagick was added to linux in the mid 90s (near ImageMagick 4) not a lot of people were doing image processing in the OS. and being that it was the first mature image processor added to the distro, it is why it has the namespaces it does.

I'm not sure how you are either not getting that clarifier of "on linux" and seem to be trying to debate something about the history of image processing itself?

To be very clear, and to hopefully prevent this continued necro'ing of this post, I was not, talking about this history of image processing, but the specific linux namespace that imagemagick has, and why it has it.

Any other points of debate about this are irrelevant.

With context switches becoming more and more expensive relative to faster and faster I/O devices, almost the same order of magnitude, I believe that thread-per-core is where things are heading, because the alternative of not doing thread-per-core might literally be halving your throughput.

That's also the most exciting thing about io_uring for me: how it enables a simple, single-threaded and yet highly performant thread-per-core control plane, outsourcing to the kernel thread pool for the async I/O data plane, instead of outsourcing to a user space thread pool as in the past. It's much more efficient and at the same time, much easier to reason about. There's no longer the need for multithreading to leak into the control plane.

My experience with io_uring has been mostly working on TigerBeetleDB [1], a new distributed database that can process a million financial transactions a second, and I find it's a whole new way of thinking... that you can now just submit I/O directly from the control plane without blocking and without the cost of a context switch. It really changes the kinds of designs you can achieve, especially in the storage space (e.g. things like LSM-tree compactions can become much more parallel and incremental, while also becoming much simpler, i.e. no longer any need to think of memory barriers). Fantastic also to now have a unified API for networking/storage.

So much good stuff in io_uring. Exciting times.

But you do need to look at the screen while driving. It's the thing I like the least about my Model 3, since the screen isn't directly in the line of sight.

All the instrumentation of a traditional car are on the one Model 3 screen.

Want to know your speed? You need to look down and to the right (or left, depending on which side the driver sits). Getting too cold? You need to look down, carefully tap on the bottom edge of the screen, hope you hit the correct pixels to bump the temp up.

Critical, time sensitive, alerts also appear on the screen. As do totally useless alerts. What are those warning sounds for? Look down at the screen. It's telling you that you're about to drift out of your lane and should correct yourself. Warning sounds again. Look down at the screen. Neat. It's telling me my premium connectivity trial has expired as I'm merging onto a busy freeway during rush hour.

Traditional car UIs aren't designed on a whim. Physical controls are designed to be usable without looking at them. Critical information is visible without needing to look away from the road.

I love the car. I hate the screen. I hate that fanboys see it as "advanced", when I suspect it was used because it's a lot cheaper to build a software UI than a physical one.
It is irrelevant. An automobile engineer would not describe a truck as a "vehicle that transports value", despite the fact that most of the time trucks are used to transport valuable things. It's ridiculous. Nobody in finance refers to financial assets as "value" either.

Why are my comments focused on cryptocurrency? Because I like to discuss cryptocurrencies. I have thought a lot about them, and I think it's an interesting phenomenon from an sociological point of view. Plus, I like arguing with people who I think are wrong.
Aren't social media networks like Facebook/Meta and Twitter valued higher as an increasing number of users join the network? Or new startups trying to get more users? Do you consider those ponzi schemes? Also, I'm just wondering, do you like tech stocks? And do you think high P/E ratios would be possible if new investors weren't buying those stocks?

Also, if there's not enough Bitcoin ever going to be created for everyone alive even now to own just one (21 million max supply cap), and assuming the interest in it only increases over time, how would a ceiling ever be hit?

I think it's a good rule of thumb to assume that anyone who guarantees returns greater than the historical return of the S&P 500 is a ponzi scheme.

I don't know of a single reputable bank, hedge fund or publicly traded company that does that.

A huge number of places do have high returns from time to time. But any reputable firm points out that past returns do not guarantee future results. No reputable firm guarantees returns that high in the future.

The key is the guarantee.

Anyone who GUARANTEES returns that high in the future is suspect, and therefore must be more transparent than usual in order to clear the bar. The article indicates that Celsius was less transparent than usual in describing exactly how they made their high returns.
Mr. Musk was pretty integral in his role of killing the California High Speed Rail project.

He created a fake solution, the Hyperloop, to steal hype away, and then never built the Hyperloop. Thereby killing the mass-transit solution of California.

I stand by my assertion. Mr. Musk is no longer useful for the environmental cause. He is decidedly anti-progress at this point. A few years ago it was somewhat ambiguous, but now its clear.

> What the fuck is good about that?

I think it's more an economic incentive for digital creators who have historically been nickel and dimed every step of the way trying to monetize their work.

> As a consumer why do you want to pay for things that have zero marginal cost?

The value for a consumer is less about paying and more about earning (which sounds dystopic to some, but is very exciting imo). And beyond that, layered experiences mean you could get an item / art / skin / etc and carry it through disparate digital worlds. One could imagine a world where no longer are you playing one game with one set of items, but are instead able to carry your stuff into multiple experiences.

Another point here: NFTs don't have to come into existance through some payment. E.g. playing an MMO and boss drops are NFTs, or by watching some sports game you're given an NFT (or in that case more correctly referred to as a POAP (Proof of Attendance Protocol)). This likely has no monetary value, but is more a social signalling device to show you care about something / did something in the past.

> Why would anyone ever buy an "experience" NFT for something they didn't experience?

Here I'm referring to digital experiences like concerts, parties, tours, AMAs, etc. where there is some set of rules to obtain the entry pass (in NFT form).

> NFTs are just a way to enforce a class system in a virtual environment where there's no inherent system of haves and have-nots

If people could altruistically create high-quality content and earn a living that way I'd agree with you. But, as we've seen with microtransactions, the model is changing as the world spends more and more time in digital 'spaces.' There is value in paying creators, and you're welcome to not participate if this isn't your cup of tea

Overall I think we're coming into this with different images of the future- agree to disagree and I hope it's less dystopic than it could be.

Defund the police is a loser of a political campaign and really does not make sense. Democrats are targeting the far left with that and losing the middle. What makes sense is reducing the power of police unions to essentially negotiate police powers and an increase of independent police oversight and use of force investigations. Mandate body cameras, and force them to release them promptly via public information requests, no exceptions. Get rid of qualified immunity.

Edit: With that said I am pro police and think they perform a vital role in society. They do a job very few people want to and deal with the worst of us. I just don't want them to have immunity from the very laws they are supposed to enforce.
Wow, fascinating. I’m not entirely surprised that the taxes cover the healthcare costs (probably similar in NZ where taxes on smoking are very high), but I was startled by the idea of early mortality being a saving.

I would point out that healthcare isn’t an entirely financial game; struggles to get nurses and doctors still mean that smokers will pull resources away from other areas

I don’t think there’s a meaningful divide in “support for the police.”

Maybe in pro police stickers and social media posts, but if you look at legislation and policy I think there’s clear support of police from the current party in power as well as the previous.

No, I'm not. Android's documentation says it handles emergency calls through a separate workflow. The law requires Android to handle emergency calls through a separate flow. Neither of those things is predicated upon a cell connection.

Emergency is required to work a certain way, by law, and is documented to work that way, but didn't happen in the case of this bug. The OS is responsible for emergency calls, the dialler, which may be third party, for normal calls.
> But, I don't see any reason to give any benefit of the doubt to people submitting FOIA requests on vaccine microchips, or chemtrails, or conspiratorial nonsense like that.

Gov officials don't have to give the the benefit of the doubt. But gov officials do have to respond in a timely and accurate manner to the requests. In this case, that probable means running the equivalent of a ctrl+F over various explicitly enumerated databases for "vaccine microchips" or "chemtrails" and replying "sorry, zero results".

On the other hand, assigning liability for non-compliance is tricky and for Google the jury is still out (pan intended).
