> when an option you don't pay for is not physically installed, and therefore saved the automaker money

Configuration complexity has a cost, too. In some cases it may be cheaper to build them all the same, especially if the low-spec option didn't sell many units and therefore would've had to make/save a lot of money per unit to justify its existence.

But in that case, my humble opinion is that they should simply enable the feature for everyone. Stop pretending there's a no-heated-seat version at all. The complexity of managing a software licensing mess is also significant, and I don't know that they've assigned a cost to the goodwill/bitterness when customers know they're hauling around stuff they can't use unless they agree to be nickel-and-dimed.

It seems Toyota might've just learned that has a cost.

Good.
Not that I particularly endorse this practice, either, but your way wouldn't work. You're missing the part where the reward for hard work is more hard work. You definitely can get promoted this way, but, you can't really use it to maintain a whole other job, IMO.

>You'd never hear that from anyone not absolutely riddled with a kind of middle classness that looks like self-loathing but is really loathing anyone who likes being British.

Two centuries ago, British politician George Canning had a good description of such people:

>A steady patriot of the world alone,

>The friend of every country but his own.

I've actively bought and sold since 2012. In that time span however, I've probably only placed like 10-20 trades over 10 years. I spend wayyy more time studying than trading. This is also a hobby and I did many other things in the meantime like studying portrait drawing, I started/sold a digital agency: https://buildthis.com/. So it wasn't actively trading. I once spent 8 months studying soybean futures after work only to wind up shorting the dow jones on a recommendation which netted me a couple grand in 30 minutes. If you think about that, that's a very small amount of money to make over 8 months. So I'm not exactly making a lot of money.

But, at the end of the day, I have not lost money. I have only made money even though it is a TINY TINY amount. I'm talking like dollars.
Likely inferior since it’s python only. You can get pretty far with python first but in most sciences that’s not going to get you all sorts of community standard things that are C/C++/fortran
Not saying this justifies anything, but at least the reasoning for the high false positive rate is simple.

Facebook gets a lot of bad PR for having lots of misinformation.

It makes sense from a business perspective to overcorrect, because general public is way more angry about potential misinformation than people having their normal posts taken down.

Again, not saying it’s justified, but having 1 major anti-vaccine post get through would be way worse for public image then 100 Christmas greetings being taken down and then corrected.

750words is probably my favorite side-hustle success story that's also a journaling tool. They grew dynamically to about 10-15k users, about a year later monetized for $5 a mo. after growing to nearly 70k users. Incredibly simple and the money is sort of unbelievable as well.
Thanks so much for the thoughtful response!

I think you identified the key disconnect between your interests and the current state of tap. For you the API alone is not worth the subscription. And that makes sense.

I think you and I have a lot in common, and _could_, if we wanted, have a high degree of ownership over our technology systems. I decided I wanted that ownership with tap, and originally it was built exclusively for myself.

But, I got some interest and decided to make it available to others. I have used it almost every day for three years —- for me its a long-term solution. I hope it can be that for others too!
>And if you spend a while contemplating the fact that the source of the universe must be beyond the confines of space and time, I think that's ample material to get started with.

You or others may read the Bible and find some sense of a God beyond those confines in its pages, but I find that God to be depressingly limited in that regard. The God of the Bible is the God of tribesmen who hadn't even smelted iron, a God that demands blood sacrifice and plunder, not the being who crafted the meticulous balance of universal constants, relativity or quantum mechanics. The God of the Bible is small compared to what we now understand of the universe.

Seven days of Genesis isn't crazy. Evolution is crazy. Hundreds of thousands of years of struggle from small, scared primates to sentient apex predators that invent language, civilization and technology and discuss the nature of divinity over the internet is crazy. A fish with its own windshield[0] is crazy. The vast majority of the universe being void and most of the rest being something we can only call "dark matter" because we don't really understand it is crazy. Black holes and pulsars and the Great Attractor are crazy. The Higgs field is crazy.

>The Bible is an remarkable book, but the more amazing thing is that the whole shebang is immediately accessible to you right now, just by virtue of the fact that you exist and you're reading this.

I grew up in a Southern Baptist family with Pentecostal friends and relatives in the Bible Belt. Trust me, I've read the Bible. But to metaquote Douglas Adams, it's enough for me to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe faeries dwell at the bottom of it.

I like the Bible as a work of literature, poetry, philosophy and even moral teaching (disregarding the Apostle Paul's misogyny, and the OT in its entirety, and see George Carlin's bit for my opinion of the Ten Commandments[1].) but as far as its depiction of God goes, it's just one culture's set of evolving opinions, out of hundreds if not thousands or more. It has its value from an anthropological and cultural perspective, but no more or less so than any other.

> Why do you lose your history when you switch between android and ios ?

>> Mostly because signal doesn't store your messages. There is no central server that has all your info and chat history like telegram does. It makes this harder

This can be solved by sharing keys between your two devices, or approving your device from another. Element does this. You do not lose history. In any case, this is a solved problem.

You're forgetting it's also what most people are on, which is the reason why it's the most tested for. 3 million deaths caused by alcohol every single year according to the WHO! It's almost like some sort of pandemic, only it's been going on forever and society isn't in the slightest way bothered.

I find it so odd few see the absurdity in all these public health debates. Now we have a virus going around and people go full authoritarian, even though the majority of deaths is way above the median life expectancy in many countries. Meaning they'd not have lived much longer anyway. But drunks kill tons of random people including kids every year - no biggie.

Just to be clear I'm against prohibition, I think all drugs should be legalized. There are millions of people who have serious issues with alcoholism though, and we have to do something against that, because they cause a lot of problems, even beyond killing others. It's farcical that drugs like LSD are highly illegal, even though users aren't known to harm others, but then others like alcohol are so accepted we even arguing about allowing people to drive while impaired with them.

If there were data showing that legalizing drink driving would lead to fewer accidents I'd be absolutely willing to consider it. I've never heard of anyone seriously make such an argument though, it seems like total bunk. A professional drinker may be driving inconspicuously, until one day their slow reaction time may not be enough to not hit that person crossing the street at night.
Is there not a semi-official (de facto) account that creates these? They always strike me as 'karma farming' since it's just a race to create something formulaic and known to be popular. Maybe it's not a problem.

That’s it I’ve decided I’m making a post about NFT myth busting. (Not this one but another one)

Think about it like this
It used to be that when you bought a painting, if you bought an original, you got a painting + signature showing it’s an original.

NFTs are meant to be used for digital art, where the physical object doesn’t exist, and anyone can make their own copy. So think of NFTs as when we “decoupled” the art from the signature.

So
Before you bought
Physical Art Print (limited) + Signature

Now you buy
Digital copy (one of infinite) + Signature

Since the digital art is infinite, you’re mostly really paying for the signature.

What you’re getting with an NFT is just the signature. The art, being digital and infinitely reproducible is still out there. Curiously, what we’ve found is that if you make just a Market for digital art, where you sell only the signatures, people will come and trade them and buy them.

You might ask - well what the hell is the point of buying just signatures? To what I’ll reply that everyone has their own kink, and that it has solved a big problem for digital artists who can now make money for their art instead of having to shill for brands or make trash to fund what they really love.

Think of it as a form of DRM for digital artists, in the actual meaningful form of the term - Rights Management being the operative words here. It used to be that in order to enforce DRM on “legitimate” copies of a film for instance, Netflix runs a bunch of servers, sells you the streaming and reliable delivery of pixels to your screen. But really they are just enforcing DRM over a bunch of pixels. Same thing with indie artists today. They can do something they couldn’t do before, which is to digitally sign X amounts of their artwork and sell it on an permissionless global market.

IMO NFTs right now are little more than a good way to fund artists you like by buying digital signatures over their digital art.
I implemented Hashlife for a different CA rule set earlier this year.

Hashlife's data structure is a quad tree embedded in a hash table. Most Hashlife instances only spend a few short moments simulating cellular automata at the "ground level"— the real work involves combining the future of the children of a quad tree node into the future of the node. That might be optimizable, but it feels extremely application-specific.

Edit: shameless, shameless plug: https://rezmason.github.io/wireworld-player/?engine=macrocel...
Those poor souls N years later will either have to decode a very few images, which is still fast enough, or decode a lot of images, which can be parallelized and run concurrently on a per-image level. In the very worst case, decode an extremely large single image, you're a bit out of luck, but that case would be rare, and you're still pretty fast at decoding anyway.

Creating formats and specs that are "future proof" is a noble goal. Criticizing QOI for not being able to be well parallelized inside the decode function, that seems more like a demand for a premature optimization to me...
It is, and I think it’s a general problem that deserves a lot more attention than it gets. A lot of people, and I should be clear that I include myself, are consuming an endless stream of fake stories that validate their preconceptions and biases. It’s not healthy and very possibly dangerous.
Every person they know must have a story on how they make a living - those would be the possibilities to investigate.
The farm bill made all hemp derived products legal federally at long as they contain only trace amounts of Delta 9 THC. Delta 8 and THC-O/acetate are legal. Not as strong, slightly different, but it gets the job done... kinda. Check it out... if you can. Check your state laws.
Also, PMs and engineers that don’t actively use and love their product can be subject to laziness - finding the most simple passable direct solution and implementing that - just to go home at 4:20.

Sure, yes, empathize don’t judge, but also, let’s acknowledge the human tendencies as non-owners to DGAF - especially in this current age of the worker questioning everything.

So this is like the "Software Lawyer" argument I stated above. If I hire a lawyer to review a contract in finance, I expect him to put his greed aside while he's working for me. This is well regulated, and while isn't perfect, keeps most lawyers honest.

With software there is no regulation. What happens when the software expert finds a bug in a smart contract? Is it illegal to sell the exploit? Can he exploit it for his own good? The smart contract is the contract after all.

Who defines what "conflict of interest" means? The software guy who wrote the smart contract or is it in the smart contract itself? How would I know if there's a backdoor in the smart contract if greed is the primary motivation for a software engineer, and every other software engineer I hire to look at that contract?
Here's a tool that helps builds these by "compiling" all files into one html file

https://github.com/sean7601/compileJS
Cheapest cars from prominent vendors here:

Kia: Picanto - €15000

Toyota: New Yaris - €20000

Citroen: C3 - €20000

Nissan: Micra - €20700

Mazda: Mazda2 - €21000

Ford: Makes you go through a configurator, so assuming here this is the cheapest model: Fiesta - €22000

Volkswagen: Polo - €22000

Honda: Civic - €25000

Fiat: Call us or visit a dealer

BMW: i3/X1 - €44000

Kia being the cheapest is no surprise, but Toyota is joint for second place.

Of course, no new car is "the people's car", rather that's usually whichever car from the lower end of the market sold the most 5-10 years ago to be cheap now on the used market. Which ends up mostly being Ford focuses, Toyota corollas and various Nissan and Kia models.
Of course. Part of the fun is also considering why a trade will go the wrong way too. There are infinite scenarios and part of trading is sketching why scenario X's probabililty is more likely than scenario Y's probability. And this can all be a wash when the completely unexpected happens too.
I am dying to hear more about this. Please, if you have time and are inclined, write up a longer comment like some of the others in this thread describing how you got into it and what the process has involved. For starters, how much did it cost to buy the farm?
You think a site called "overemployed" about working multiple jobs is really about slacking off? shrug okay?

The guy is putting himself forward as an authority on how to juggle these multiple jobs. I don't think he ever really says it's easy or for slackers. He says you have to manage expectations while staying afloat. But his web infrastructure couldn't handle the expectations placed upon it.

I think the point is you're being taken too seriously here because someone almost always comes into these types of discussion and makes the same point you did in a serious way, then claims victory for refuting the original claim.
One of the problems I have been thinking about, people can still solo mine when they have lots of capital to buy hardware. Now, most crypto miners are using pools that reward them for their hashrate. However, there are only a handful of pools that the majority of miners use, which means centralization.

Real-time ray traced reflections are an impressive trick, but real-time global illumination is where this tech shines IMO. This Digital Foundry video (https://youtu.be/NbpZCSf4_Yk) is a good overview of why this is such a huge leap forward for developers and players alike.

Metro: Exodus EE (the game discussed in the video) is the only game I've played that really shows what 'RTX' and similar GPU hardware is capable of, IMO. Even CP77, which was supposed to push modern systems to their limit, feels like its ray tracing and GI stuff is janky and tacked-on.
I’m sure this is going to sound too negative but I just can’t see how a paid chat app that only works on Apple devices is going to work out.

And of course an equally successful method is to simply call the truth a lie and lies the truth often enough.

But NFTs can be copied. In which case a third party outside the blockchain must attest to which NFT is original or legitimate. That kills the whole proof of ownership angle, I think. Having an NFT only means you control a digital file asserting that you "own" something else; what is meant by "own" and if the assertion is true is not knowable without off-chain information.

I'll give you that it does allow creators to extract value from their work.

I will also admit I am perhaps overconfident about my strategy. It accurately lined up to when the omicron announcement happened and then I sold my shares in the market and bought them back once I "felt" the market had finished pricing in the information. So I have half a strategy right now. My buy back strat is not great but my timing to short the S&P 500 was absolutely impeccable. And that's why I'm inspired to work on this now.
