well, SBCL is 64bit, has native threads, can be built from another Lisp, the type inferencing is improved, the whole build process is totally painless. I can build a new SBCL in under a minute from scratch using the installed older SBCL. I can install it from Homebrew on my current Mac. It runs natively in 64bit on my M1 Pro Mac. I also like the Unicode support better in SBCL.

CMUCL is still 32bit, AFAIK.
Is the front defroster so significant a safety concern that it must always be possible to activate with one touch/press/turn?

If so, then Tesla would need to dedicate one such button to the front defroster regardless of menu state.
GM has a sort of neat solution in the new Hummer, a row of physical buttons/switches directly below the screen.
Honestly, I think this would be worse than Tesla's screen. The oft-repeated benefit of buttons is that they allow a kind-of muscle memory to build up - so you learn to change ccommonly-used settings without taking your eyes off the road.

In contrast, this would offer tiny screens, presumably in locations even more distant (considering the range of locations buttons appear in typical cars) from the windscreen than the Tesla screen is, and by switching their purpose, you create the neceessity to examine them before pressing?
Curious, did you read the book or watch the movie first?
Some models incorporate real world data. Some models draw analytical conclusions from [slight modifications] to relationships widely agreed to be true.

And some are pretty purely abstract. With this one you can largely guess the conclusion from the stated assumptions despite the complexity of the algebra but... there isn't much reason to believe the stated assumptions approximate reality. Yes, if you model political polarization as economic interactions in which people gain more from riskier trades with people from a different race or political party, pick their political party according to these economic aspirations, and are risk averse in proportion to their income, then the logic of those assumptions is that inequality will make people more likely to sort themselves into parties which match their races and consider those important to their decisions. But I'm not sure that's really how US racial politics works, or that the complexity of the model's dynamics make it more rather than less plausible.

There are better reasons to believe reducing inequality can reduce political polarisation than this model, as well as better reasons to believe it won't make much difference
There's a company called Auth0, which was comprised of mostly Argentinians. They did quite well for themselves, they got bought out by Okta for 6b.

But employers are paying more and more than ever before?
Sure, why not? There are those that dismiss all sightings as aberrations and lies and don't believe there are actual objects that are flying around our atmosphere. Then there are people that believe there are actual objects that are flying around but don't know wtf they are.
I worked as a software developer in one company in Brazil and in three American companies. The skill gap was non-existent. I could see the same level of talent in both places.

Sounds like you're heavily projecting. This post is literally the definition of projection. Just read your post over again and realize how toxic and demeaning and unbearable you sound. Maybe look deeply into how much of an asshole your are, and then maybe that'll give you a clue why you hate your life.

But to give real advice to you in a less flippant manner, start embracing who you are. You're going to end up in your 40s fantasizing about living a stereotypical and neurotypical extrovert life like a frat boy and constantly hating and rejecting people who nerdy and geeky only to realize how much time you wasted trying to be someone you aren't. You have people to hang out with. You just reject them because you hate yourself, you have always had a thing against awkward and nerdy people, even though that's who you are.

Trust me, many people on the borderline of smart and cool during their highschool go through this phase. It's taking you till your 30s to learn this, but you will learn it soon. You will learn how superficial these labels are and how the only thing that matters is finding some people that care for you and that you care for them. You're literally self-hating by announcing your distaste for the stereotypical 'outcasts' of society. Because you would be in that group too.

I actually hope you get what you want, a nice friend group full of 'normal' non-autistic, non-awkward, non-short, non-old, outgoing, and non-ugly people. I hope you get that dream and anything else you want- because you will quickly realize that it's not the answer. ~stolen slightly changed quote from Jim Carrey.
Why not? Isn't there X11?
Depending on where you go to school, I think student government actually does have responsibilities with planning events and such, and this gets far more important in college than in k12.

In k12, while it's not really meaningful, It's still an extracurricular activity, and at the same time it shows that you can work with others (theoretically) and that people like you enough to put you there.

Unless you're in an anime. The student council in anime not only has power in the school, but outside political and military power besides.
Misleading people by saying don't get vaccinated, when doing so reduces

That's an automated process then.
It’s not your fault. I find Teslas so confusing that I am visibly anxious to approach them and ride in them as a passenger. In an emergency, I would rather land a plane than try to operate a Tesla.
That depends entirely on whether or not they automatically switch between functions, or if you can manually switch them (like bookmark functions).
I work on UX/UI for startups. Have both worked for big tech companies and have many designer friends in big Tech co’s. The pattern I unfortunately see is that many of the larger firms somehow think they need dozens (a few cases: hundreds) of product designers who are all fiddling in the exact same interface. It’s absolutely nuts.

It becomes an internal battle of who finds a more clever way to present a design in a meeting to a product manager. I’m sure all of OP’s complaints sounded like very clever solutions in meetings. But that’s not where your users are.

Please. Keep your design team to a minimum. Design is not like engineering. More designers working on a single piece of software is counter productive.
I don't disagree that there's been a few successful fines, but by that logic I should quit my job tomorrow because I happened to get lucky at the casino a couple times.

GDPR enforcement has been extremely lacking as demonstrated by the web being littered by non-compliant data processing consent forms. A compliant consent form should make the "decline" option as prominent as the "accept" one - the vast majority of services currently don't comply (including big names like Google or Facebook) and entire businesses such as TrustArc have been built on providing non-compliant consent forms as a service.

For GDPR enforcement to be considered serious, the fines amounts should be higher than the profits of companies built on abusing user data. If we look at https://www.enforcementtracker.com/?insights we can see that 1,6 billion euros has been handed out so far over a period of 4 years across the entire EU. How much does Google or Facebook profit in a year?

The entire experience of reporting violations is also a major problem and suggests the regulators (at least the UK one) aren't actually interested in enforcing the regulation. The process with the ICO requires that you first get in touch with the company and try to resolve your concern. This takes time & admin work on your behalf and a malicious actor can drag out the process for months. But let's assume that after you've done that and haven't gotten anywhere, escalating to the ICO merely results in them sending a letter. And when the company ignores that too, guess what happens? Another letter which they will promptly ignore too.

This sets the example that breaching the GDPR does pay, because not only reporting a violation requires so much commitment that the vast majority of people won't bother, but even once the violation is reported, the response from the ICO isn't actually an effective deterrent either.

The Story of Maxis Software (1999)
We're currently keeping it as simple as possible. We just use a table and this query that runs every second:
"DELETE FROM job_queue RETURNING type, info;"

Works great and reliably so far. I think our current volume is on the order of 100-1000 req/sec. We'll likely switch to graphile-worker when we need more performance, but we're all about avoiding premature optimization. That library has been benchmarked to handle 10k req/sec: https://github.com/graphile/worker#performance
Same in Tunisia. Remote and France have swooped practically most of the tech talent. You are forced with either mediocre developers or to pay EU rates.
I think this sort of thing would be nice for replacing the Touch Bar on previous generation Macs with a row of changable keys.

I don't think it solves the problem of touch screens in cars though. The benefit of dedicated physical buttons in a car isn't just that they are physical. It's that you can use them without having to look at them. If you don't know what the button does (because it's changeable) then you can no longer simply use it without looking.

It's probably still better than a pure touch screen though.
> "The problem isn’t really that complicated: originally the defroster icon was visible on the bottom. With the latest December 2021 update it is now hidden behind the temperature indicator. Tapping the temperature brings up a sub-window with the defroster icon."

Even after reading that, I had to look at the pictures again, and read the paragraph again to find where you are supposed to tap. When they simplified the UI, they also removed the degrees symbol and the fan.

Seeing as how 60-70 are both reasonable temperatures in Fahrenheit and speeds in miles per hour, it is not at all clear at a glance what that number means.

(Disclosure, I work for GM)
Haha, it seems they missed the more obvious solution: build a second story rail (with a middle rail so you can even split up or redirect workloads) and move lighter, smaller goods faster. You can now optimize for transportation of goods more valuable or time sensitive but less bulky, move them faster, and add capacity to your system, all at the same time. All on exactly the same land without interrupting existing rail. And since it's smaller and higher they could expand or reroute over properties where before it would've been too difficult.

Low tunnels and bridges would of course be an issue; some you could just go above or around, others maybe not at all. Still, there may be routes where it makes sense.
What I mean by that is how worker protection laws from the Industrial Age and which apply to hourly wage employees are applied to professional workers that have autonomy and other attributes that make them very different from hourly workers.

The USA has a concept of an “exempt” and “nonexempt” worker and a series of questions that determine this status. In general, hourly workers (nonexempt) get many protections encoded into law that professionals don’t. And professionals don't want them except for a very small minority of oddballs that want to unionize.

So in essence, applying the same set of outdated rules to everyone. It even makes it hard to compete with colleagues for promotions if your hours are limited. Of course the French engineers I had lied to the government about hours worked as they wanted to maximize bonuses, stock grants, and promotions.

Can some UX person please splain me why hiding things behind menus is such a trend? Even if there is a fixed window and a ton of whitespace (like this car), everyone wants to hide most frequent click targets behind a hamburger or dot or gear or wrench icon somewhere. Why?
In the old days it’s equivalent to moving the defrost button inside the coin box.
For what it's worth, I often use the voice interface for a lot of things like temperature. I don't want to take my eyes off the road to turn the temperature up. Now, that comes with caveats (needs data connection, ugh), but I generally prefer that to my old car with physical buttons for temp now.
oh nice, thanks for sharing, I wasn't aware of that :-)

It seems though that the assertions are attached to transactions. The way I use balance assertions on beancount is that, say, payday after balancing everything I'd enter

> 2022-01-30 balance Assets:Bank 500.00 USD

and that will ensure that whatever happens, even if I need to go back in time to clear transactions, the amount needs to be that one, and that balance is usually straight from my current bank balance.

So, it seems slightly different use case that ledger's balance assertion
I fully agree. Hiding those icons is terrible. I would go a step further d say it’s a safety issue. The defroster is usually needed very urgently in most cases. No one would expect the icon to be hidden and in the moment of need taking eyes off the road to find it could be dangerous.
I've been using ledger for 10+ years. I guess I should try beancount, but ledger works for me. I've never had to calculate capital gains or any other taxes myself, though.

Ledger's simple model makes a lot more sense to me (ie. everything is just a commodity), but it sounds like beancount is set up to deal with a lot of the extra bullshit that exists in the legal system.
Same goes the for 'cookie law'. A significant fraction of the web is in violation. The lack of enforcement sends the message that non-compliance is acceptable, so it's become the norm.
On the ground, this seems to be demonstrably false. I have numerous current and former coworkers that would love opportunities elsewhere.

It’s the recruiters who are the problem. If you’re looking for a C# dev and you put “5 years Node.JS experience minimum”, then not only are you going to miss out on some great, if not the best, developers, but you’re much less likely to hire the man you actually want.
Why is it such a serious mistake to attempt to collect data? I don't understand all the hate for a plausible hypothesis. He is not putting his fingers in his ears and yelling there are UFOs over and over, he is starting a project to collect data for a plausible hypothesis.
#!/bin/bash

People who start out with linux should use that. Most companies, particularly HNey startups, should use that and nothing bad will happen.

Most people don't have to care about portability, shouldn't use /bin/sh, and shouldn't learn about Almquist. Your advice does not favors to the bulk of people who just need to get shit done.

If they do wind up working in an environment where it is important, they can teach themselves the differences at that point, or else ask someone like us to review their code (and there's an automated linter out there).

You aren't the Main Character, most people don't need to care about the same things that you do.
I don't think there's any escaping the stressors of deep hierarchies. Social status is a scarce commodity, and will continue to be scarce regardless of wealth. I think the better solution is to proscribe severe punishment/suffering for violating the peace a la Japan. Classical conditioning works on people too.
My car radio has this as well: I have dedicated volume knob with mute push, next and previous track buttons, and a Home button that takes the nav system to the Home Screen. It’s minimum, sufficient, and I would really regret not having them.
The importer will open StuffIt and old OS disk images just like archive.org gives you, but something unexpected could have gone wrong. I’ll probably do a few bug fixes tonight.
There's no harm in trying one. Outside of the minority of cars with reliability issues, they're great cars IMO - and that's coming from a life-long 'car person'. Once you learn to use it appropriately (as in, what it's capable and not capable of, and that you do need to stay engaged in the driving process despite it) even Autopilot is pretty useful too.
Some vehicles do have hard buttons overlayed on top of the screen.

The Range Rover evoque for example has a pushable wheel that sits on top of a screen (with a cutout in the center), so the part within the wheel will change based on the context.

I think that's a really good middle ground.
Thanks. This is especially the "assume a tire width" that is a problem - are there hard rules for which width is possible for X (X being something I measure)
> The problem is that the GDPR is pretty much not enforced.

17 companies were fined for GDPR violations just this month. Last year, Amazon was fined €746,000,000, Google €150,000,000, Facebook €60,000,000.

Aside from using imap to backup my mail, what else should I do to help mitigate an arbitrary ban? I’ve had a gmail account for 20 years since 12 year old me got caught up in invite fomo. I’ve since moved to other providers but still there’s a fair amount tied into my account currently.

Mostly I’m scared of ‘multifactor’ where email access is considered a form of identity, but I’m not sure what else
Where did I mention anything about Tesla?
Admittedly, as someone who takes screen shots at least weekly, I have taken a photo of my screen simply because it's faster and easier than the alternative.

A. On my computer, browse to the site I'm already using on my phone. Find the thread I was reading and the comment I wish to respond to, if applicable. Post the screnshot.

Or B, take a screenshot, upload it somewhere that I can access on my phone. Download it to my phone. Then share it on my phone through whatever means my OS makes available.
I don’t know about other web-guides. Nim’s official website is made with Nim and available at Github[0], but it has become at bit more complicated after they switched to Karax[1]. Jester’s tests gives a good view on the routing procedures[2].

The official tutorials[3] are pretty good, when you get the grab on how to ”decode” them. For web development with websockets and microservices I would suggest you to have a look at the Redis package[4], and @treeform’s Websocket[5] and JsonParsing-packet[6].

A tree makes more sense than a two dimensional array for representing panes, but not for the reasons stated in the article. Sparseness and performance will not be issues with the low number of panes that will ever be used. The main reason to use trees is just that they are a closer representation of the abstraction, and will be easier to reason about and code.

On a side note, I wasn't able to figure out what problem this company is trying to solve. I've been using nvim+tmux+kitty and it does all the things they sell, while being open source.
I mean, if you were CEO, would you choose to reduce profit when you have investors on your back or want to grow staff quickly? Outside of VC driven cash cows or big tech, there's not that much money to go around at the bottom.
I feel like that article just affirmed my position though. An Uber job that would've been $400k in SF is now $250k in NL. You might think "Wow Group 3 is growing, good for us workers," but the absolute peak of Group 3 is falling.
That seems perfectly reasonable to me depending on the specifics. If you already have reddit on your phone but not on the computer, then it is much more convenient just to take a pic and post it.
RefCell is distinct from Cell, more common, but much worse tradeoffs for implicit access, because accessing it can crash your program.
My side projects can go months without and update. As such I try to do unit tests for my models, controllers, and middleware.

I make sure that stubs exist for functional and end to end tests. That way when I do see bugs come in from sentry I can quickly write tests into the right layer. Usually they are unhandled failures on external requests.
I've still yet to read an honest account of why I need a 60fps GPU-accelerated terminal for SSH-ing or vim'ing.

Its always smelt to me as a "we can, so we will" rather than a genuine need.
I find it interesting that I only ever hear that kind of complaint from Americans. Here in Europe, cursive/script is the basic way you learn writing, you automatically transition to something other later in life ... and we have zero hate for either variant.

As for lack of legibility: I would guess US teachers not enforcing good style in preschool and elementary school contribute to that.
There are loads of people leasing cars, which is basically a fixed term rental.
You can use their in-app chat to cancel your takeout order while waiting in that line, or so I hear.
I'm a Tesla to and the new design is horrible UX.

I hate to say it, but I think auto safety regulations will now have to incorporate basic interior functions as accepted e criteria. Corporations are too greedy and will compromise safety for money at any time (presumably app buttons could be a revenue stream, and that's why they want to promote it)
If you initiated a wire to the wrong account, that's one thing. The banks will not reverse this sort of transaction, to my understanding. If someone else fraudulently initiated a wire from your account, then that's another thing. This type of transaction will be reversed. I'm not sure which situation you're talking about. ACH transactions are a whole other ballgame.
For that matter, it would be nice if software with side effects of this sort disclosed them at runtime by default. For all its faults, this is something npm gets (partly) right. Partly, in this case, because it does print the commands it runs and their output, but it doesn’t tell you why.

I’m sure this would be overly verbose for most users, who would likely turn it off, but it would still be educational in terms of the huge set of implicit side effects normal every day software produces.
Why can't the solution here be individual coping strategies?
I think every other manufacturer already has an EV. I didn't check so there might be one or two that don't yet.

In any case, go test drive one of those to see how you like EVs.
