>A simple trick I once learned is to structure the explanation into four parts, with one sentence for each part: (1) state the problem, (2) state the consequences of the problem, (3) state the solution, (4) state the consequences of the solution.

That's a good structure! I have thought about it -- in the context of technical talks -- as Why/What/How. You start at a high level, and progressively zoom in. Why is the problem, What is the solution, and How is the technical details of the solution.

There's also the "advanced" test, where the kid moves out from behind an obstacle here. Luminar's tech does well:

This "tech" can't even see a firetruck in broad daylight. Why do you think it can see a child?

This isn't a one-off freak accident either. "crashing into stopped emergency vehicles with flashing lights in broad daylight" is common enough that NHTSA has opened up an investigation into this rather specific effect: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/inv/2021/INOA-PE21020-1893.PDF
Not specific to tesla but I guess the answer is in your question. Most likely all the current self driving efforts across board will fail till we have smart roads. A road that can help a vehicle self drive will ensure the complexity of self driving is reduced. And of course that might mean these roads will have to be human driver, pedestrian free.

> third person plural neopronoun, "th'all"

What we need is an unambiguous set of third person singular pronouns. "They" and "them" is already a fine set of gender indifferent plurals. It's "he", "she", "it", "his", "hers", "its" that we're having problems with.
Another thing is when TiWorker.exe (Updating system) or MsMpEng.exe (Antimalware system) start consuming so much CPU that it starts to heat up my laptop and its overheating system kicks in and shuts everything down. It's really annoying.

Humans have general intelligence and are pretty bad drivers. Why would a computer intelligence be any better? If anything, a computer intelligence would be more likely to get bored or distracted if their "brain" is running faster than ours.
In Australia, it's not just little side roads that run by school entrances that have this rule; the school zone thing applies even on fairly major free-flowing roads. Two examples I can think of are

As the usual speed limit is quite a bit higher at 70km/h, driving at 40km/h (25mph) outside these times would make you, at best, a rather annoying obstacle to surrounding traffic.

I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark here and guess that despite having the title "senior", you have little or no experience in commercial software development? Because what you dismiss as "special cases" covers a vast amount of the plumbing of the modern web. In modern apps even something as simple as storing and retrieving files requires HTTP calls at some point in the stack, and such calls should never under any circumstances be initiated from someone else's computer.

Which brings us back to the original question you responded to above. Contrary to your odd views of how software is architected, issuing HTTP requests from the backend is both normal and common enough to be banal. Node adopting the fetch API is generally a good thing as it allows JS developers to code against the same interface whether they are working from the frontend or the backend.
All choices are cumulative. Small choices -- like whether to have a Diet Coke because it's 2:30 PM or to get up and walk for five minutes -- are small but build with repetition. Or put another way: all choices are building up or tearing down habits and they all matter.

In my country at least, the government charges lots of money (several thousands) to change ownership of real estate in a government managed ledger. That obviously could be replaced by crypto, which (in its basic form) is a distributed ledger. Ownership can be proven via the blockchain.
Haha, the German government is pushing for lawfully required backdoors at the same time.
Sounds like trash, but then that's not relevant to what I said.
I’m asking for resources on the toroidal knotting of the large scale EM around black holes, both nearby in the immediate accretion disk and from the perspective of the galaxy as a whole.

Those knots are (supermacro) anyons, because they’re tangles in a field that form particle-like excitations, though in this case loop like excitations. And what we’re seeing as weird patterns is gas dancing around those loop excitations within the galaxy, eg emitting synchrotron radiation as they do.

That would be one explanation of why we find so many filaments perpendicular to the galactic plane.

> I'm really struggling to see how -- given the high temperatures and high particle numbers involved -- anything is to be gained by looking at the truly microscopic behaviour of the stress-energy tensor, even in the very near region of the horizon.

For the same reason that braiding tells us something about the behavior of plasma globes — the topology doesn’t just “go away”, and we need to account for where the tangle went. It either fell into the black hole or it’s still here. For the same reason plasma globe filaments only collapse at topological defects.

The precise reason that I think that we can’t ignore the braiding term is that we’re forming an entanglement structure between all of those particles — and while it’s a jumbled mess, that’s precisely why we can’t ignore its contribution to mass and galactic binding.

I also would point out that this doesn’t require any extensions to the standard model — I’m just saying something that happens small also happens big: that braiding is a fact of the wave equation.

> The actual riddim sounds completely uninteresting to my American ears.

I find the simple casio rhythm delightfully engaging and catchy! But that may be because I've heard it in so many reggae and dancehall songs I associate it with now. But the first time I heard those songs, they immediately caught my ear and made me want to dance.

I'm a space nerd and the geographic distribution of the Apollo contractors was downright impressive. They built major systems from New York to California.
Yes. This is why I switched to simply hibernating, which has worked flawlessly for me. The shutdown and startup times are obviously a bit longer (it takes 10 seconds to get to the bootloader, after which its about 12 seconds to wake up), but since it's truly off, it can remain asleep indefinitely.
The important thing here is that for over half-a-decade, Tesla has been lying to its customers about its capabilities.

When in actuality, Tesla will reliably crash into pedestrians and stationary firetrucks. To the point where people at other companies are confident to make live-demos of this at electronic shows.

---------

Calling it "autopilot" or "fsd" isn't the problem. The problem is that Tesla actively lies about its capabilities to the public and its customers. It doesn't matter "how" they lie or exactly what weasel words they use. The issue is that they're liars.

We can tell them to change their name or change their marketing strategy. But as long as they're liars, they'll just find a new set of weasel words to continue their lies.
It was an incredibly short-sighted idea. ...with many people blatantly pointing out dangers of it.

Russia now has a "war chest" of almost a trillion USD. Enough to pay off all of its debt and to run the country under complete sanctions for two full years.

In my area, the vast majority do. The rolling stops are called a "california stop" for a reason.

The example with the US military lying certainly demonstrates another issue with over valuing metrics - making sure you have good data. People who get wrapped around metrics also tend to not look at the data they are being presented. One of the issues McNamara had was he was receiving inflated body count figures.

> Drive too slow? Ticket.

At least when I grew up in Australia, part of the road laws was a statement, very close to this effect:

"You are required to drive at the maximum speed that is 1) within the speed limit, 2) is appropriate for the conditions, and 3) within your ability to control the vehicle".

And that was the rationale for ticketing 'too slow' drivers. Within those constraints, there was no reason for you to go more slowly, and posed unnecessary risk to those who were within those criteria.
> I don't have a professional network per se, just a bunch of friends I clicked with at various companies. I know if they're enjoying somewhere, I probably will too, since we value similar things in the work.

I wish this were true for me. I do have people I click with but I have a personal value not to work for anywhere whose main revenue source boils down to "more eyeballs / clicks" and this rules out pretty much everywhere my past coworkers/friends have gone to work.
in my country (the netherlands) i have seen people stop at stop signs at times when there is very, very little traffic (04:00 at night).

The point is also much more about creating a habit in which this kind of behaviour is just done, regardless of the state of the traffic on the road.
The law says you must stop for a stop sign, stop signs are placed in places in which sudden traffic participants could enter your field of vision at a time in which it is too late to react properly.

Also, people get fined for ignoring stop signs, even if no one is present.
Driving education in the netherlands is quite strict and so are punishments for drivers.
For instance, the driver of a car is always at fault for an accident with a "weak" traffic participant (foot/bike traffic), even if technically they werent at fault. (there is process to fight this in court if you assume ill intent/fraud is at play, although it is rarely used).

the reasoning being that the driver of a car has had a drivers education and can thus act responsible while driving a hunk of metal down the road at lethal speeds.
Also 9 times out of 10 its a bait and switch for a different company. Whenever I've worked with these recruiters they always "see whats a good fit" with my resume and its never the company that was in the job description.
Then other people on FF and FF Nightly should be having the same issue
> can do nothing because the walk sign is on

This works until you do it to a driver who has had a really bad day and demonstrates that the walk sign isn't a force field.

Yes, he'll probably go to jail for vehicular manslaughter, but that doesn't help you.
The quoted StackOverflow post is gold:

"A mass-murderer space rock happens about once every 30 million years on average. This leads to a probability of such an event occurring in the next second to about 10-15. That's 45 orders of magnitude more probable than the SHA-256 collision."

Fully behind it, even a little corner shop is liable for what they produce, why should software companies be special snowflakes.

If this kind of regulation is the only way to make security part of the development process and chosen tooling and not am afterthought, so be it.
Why not let market figure this out? Companies that do not provide support are bound to be eaten by the others.
There's a difference between legal and enforced.

Going over the speed limit is not legal, but no officer will pull you over at +1, unless you piss them off for some other reason, like by being black in a white community, for example. Racial biases aside, this is actually a really good thing. If every law was enforced perfectly today, everyone would be arrested, fined, or jailed tomorrow.

> Idaho does have some provision for bicyclists and rolling through stop signs.

As does Oregon. I would guess there are others, too.
Presumably plenty of Jamaicans (and others) would disagree, but I do personally like the sound of the 70s recordings best, especially the dubs, The Revolutionaries, Roots Radics, etc. Newer reggae has a lot of newer pop in it, auto-tune, plastic-y production.
My company got access to the beta and it was an excellent addition to what we normally get with just Jira or Github.
I’m not advocating for the carriers, and share the disgust.

Remember that wireless carriers have more leeway with discriminating against certain traffic than wireline. They probably do it to cement those rights.

Cool. I have thought about the same thing a while ago, but held back.

The code gen you are talking about is for data wrangling and shaping, right?

Firstly let me state that yes, you could make a GUI with Java but it would suck because the GUI toolkits available at the time were just downright awful (and they still are!). Want an app that's super bloated and looks awful (no native controls)? Use Java!

Also, the Linux community wasn't against Java per se (not until Oracle bought Sun anyway) it's just that writing Java was a huge/complicated undertaking compared to say, Python and managing JREs was a huge pain in the ass. The old joke was, "By the time you have Eclipse open I will have completed the program in Python."

Lastly, mono was enormous (and still is)! Talk about bloated! When mono was being most actively pushed on the Linux community back in the day there was just no benefit: For smaller things you had shell scripts and Python. For larger programs you had C/C++, Java, and... Python :D. Why would you go through the hassle (and it was a huge hassle) of using mono when those other languages provided better performance with much lower friction/barrier to entry? It didn't have much of a "selling point" as it were.
